A powerful pair of binoculars and complete wireless equipment are the observer's weapons. Before him lies five thousand square miles as a map on a desk. Armenia with his glass, he eclipses the eagle. A tiny riff of smoke, high up on old Mount Talkwitch. The observer tunes in to the wave length of the lookout that he knows to be nearest to the scene of the trouble, then broadcasts to the lookouts of the entire district the approximate location of the fire, giving them the number of the lookout first notified. All are connected by telephone, and soon an army of rangers and settlers are on their way to the fire. In the afternoon Mrs. Sutherland entertained Mr. and Mrs. Leille and son and J. O. Peeples.

Another of the unusual acts will be "Toothpicker" offering what they term as "A.I Brand Dancers."
