The girls have been 'Selected from the 12,000 girls of advanced high school age who attend the forty-nine Girls States conducted by the Auxiliary this summer. McHenry's representative was Darlene Andreas, who gave us a report on the activities at Girls State. Darlene had the honor of" being elected secretary of state by her fellow participants and told the Auxiliary members' just how a campaign and election is conducted at Girls State. The girls study government for a week but they manage to get ttt a lot of fun, too, and in the doing develop many new friendships. , In Washington, they will set up a miniature federal government of their own, elect a president and other officials, and practice derating the various branches of government. They will visit the White House. Capitol, Supreme Court. Treasury and other departments where they can see the United States government in actual operation. The Auyiliary expends approximately $300,000 eaeh year in its Girls State and Girls Nation program to train selected girls in the operation of the machinery of democratic government: The program parallels a Boys State and Boys Nation program conducted by the American Legioif.

Three days later, on March 10, 1878, ii* Bell's rooms at 5 Exeter Place, Boston, the new "membrane-speaking" apparatus transmitted its historic first senence in the voice of the inventor-- 'Mr. Watson, come here, I want 'you!" The 75th anniversary of the patent finds approximately 75 million telephones in use throughout the world. Nearly three-fifths of them are in the United States (?oute* (by Mari« Schaettgeni With the modern refrigerators and deep freezes there is no trick in having food on hand to meet any emergency of unexpected guests.

Mtfiutto Tap* It CamfRf Revolution in Rteordinf A revolution is in progress in the science of capturing and reproduc ing sound. The year 1952 marks the 75th anniversary of Edison's invention of the phonograph, the National Geographic Society notes. At the same time a spectacular medium of sound recording is just coming of age-- the magnetic tape. Plastic or paper tapes coated with magnetic iron oxides--highly refined rust--now make the master copies for nearly all new photograph records and motion picture sound tracks. Tape records White House press conferences, takes office dictation, preserves battle orders in Korea, gives, telephone weather forecasts, ^operates automatic machineryo and electronic computers. From Edison's first tinfoil-covered cylinder croaking "Mary had a little lamb," to a newly invented machine which can turn out hundreds of magnetic tape duplicates without losing a syllable or musical note, three-quarters of a century of engineering wizardry has made recorded sound today virtually indistinguishable from the original.

Today I as on the road to recovery, thanks t& the quick action of one of your fine operators. Again and again I have thought, how tender and frail the thin line that leads from Death up into Life, and yet in our direst noaents how strong!
