I have a feeling that we grown- ups would display much the same reaction if some of our forefathers came suddenly to life. and ex- claimed. "Just think. you drove a horseless buggy over that smoothly paved road at slxtymiles an hourl" We would look at the poor things. ‘pityingly and say. "Well-what of t?" And — (probably) step on the

gas.

“What of it?" We would say at’ the miracle of electricity that floods this earth with light and heat at the pressing of the button; of the telephone. through which we speak in a moment across a sea 0r con- tinent; of the phonogra h. which gives us music at the urn of e. lever. (An invention that helped to make radio and the talking picture possible)

Some of the miracles are not s0 old but that we can remember not only our awe of them but also their ludicrous appearance and action when they first came into use. We have a azv remembrance of rattling along at a terrific (7) speed (the driver pridefully ass-ur- ed us that he thought there was no speedometer - he was “doini; fort ") on a rutty. narrow CiRY roa in an old-fashioned Ford. The kind of librd that had to be cranked for fifteen minutes before it finished coughing and started t0 roar and put-put like a gasoline en- gine with its muffler off. The car wasn't streamlined. but I am quite sure its young occupants ivere after cutting the wind for twenty-five or thirty; miles. holding tightly t0 wide-brimmed hats by their ribbon tails.

‘There are clearer recollections of the first radios.- We gingerly allow- ed some queer l00klllg things. cal- led ear-phones to be slipped on our heads. At first we would hear nothing except crackling noises. But after much manipulation of knobs and dials by someone who "understood it,“ we could hear music so very. verv faint that it wasn't at all difficult to convince us that it really came from Pitts- burgh. Pennsylvania, Nevertheless. we were impressed. if not exactly entertained.

It was a mistake. in those days for anyone owning a radio to invite his friends to listen in with him. As surely as he did. the princes of the upper air and t-hc inner works of the radio joined forcts to pro- duce either the stillness of a vault

It Carries Its Own Recommendation

Oi‘ as much invisible fireworks as passiblf‘. Indeed. with no provoca- tion whatsoever. as far as the physical eye could see. the radio would often emit strange roars and crackling noises such as a thunder- storm does not now evoke from it. Small ivonder that no one laughed at a dear old lady. and at some not so old, who refused to sit near the "C0lltl‘itpill0ll.“ for fear it would electrociite her. _

A radio .of course. did not always behave in this imseemly manner. The night before the listening guests were present. and. quite likely, the night after. “Receptlonf declared the radio owner. “Was splendid."
