'Other in- stances of transmutation of metals are also reported." Secrets of Radio . Turning to the subject of radio, Mr. Oxley explained the interesting ionization layers that existed miles above the earth, and which carried radio waves. He imparted to his au- dience the fact that, 'while the air near the earth was cold, temperatures of as high as f00 degrees centigrade has been recorded 12 miles above the earth. It was this highl heated at- mosphere that carried radio waves to the best advantage. In between these ionization layers and the earth were cosmic layers that caused fading, but the engineer asserted that he expect- ed that in a short time the fading difficulties would be overcoine, Future of Broadcasting The future of broadcasting, said Mr. Oxley, was in the short wave channels. The "broadcast band" was now filled to the limit with stations, But many more stations could be operated in the short wave band than in the longer wave channels, and he forecasted that in ten years or so everyone could carry around a small shortwave receiving set capable of receiving messages irom anywhere in the world. One other advantage of short - wave receivers and transmit- ters was that they were inexpensive to own and operate. The speaker was introduced by Ki- wanian Alex C, llall, while Kiwan- ian A, J. Graves moved a vote of thanks. Among the visitors present at thie meeting were Lindsay Williamson and Joseph Clunk of the Canadian National Institute for the Blind.
