One ground. of appeal against the will is that it tends to place "a pre- mium on immorality.":"

The world's latest scientific won- ders were on show in London at the Royal Society conversazioné. at Burlington House, including:

A wireless direction-finding sta- tion which has been erected at Or Fordness for experiments was on view .and working. From its signals ships and aircraft can deter mine their position. 1

A ships wireless set picks up the wireless dots and dashes: No direction-finding receiver is re quired; only an ordinary receiver, a stop-watch and an elementary knowledge of compass points.
