The March of Radio 895 Malies (of Pittsburgh) penetrated the New York apartment of Miss Dorothy Hess (of Chicago). A short time afterward they met and were married, and lived happily ever after, we suppose. Canadian Stations Joined by Wire WE KNOW with what success the broadcasting network in the United States is gradually being extended. At first it was only a Presidential address, or event of similar national importance that seemed to warrant the use of a large wire network to tie in several broadcasting stations, but continually increasing interest in broadcasting and continually increasing excellence and utility of programs makes it a foregone conclusion that the association of wire networks and radio stations will be of ever increasing occurrence.

Wherever these three speak the church is filled to overflowing and many cannot get in to hear them. And because of their eloquence, religious conviction, and sincerity of appeal, radio can never decrease church attendance as far as they are
