CHINESE SUPPER FOR _ BENEFIT OF - FAMINE VICTIMS Skit Written | By Fung Kei Liu Hung with gay flags and weird decora- tions the gymnasium was og into 3 for a supper at which real ~ Chinese food, prepared under the direction of Fung Kei Liu,;’22, and Miss» Dong, graduate. student, was served for the benefit of the famine sufferers’ in” Northern” China. ~The enter= tainmént was in charge of E. Rhoads, ’23, “chairman~of. the World Citizenship -Com- =~ mittee. Mrs. William Roy Smith, speaking after supper in behalf ofthe sufferers, said that reports from China were very discouraging. “More than 30,000,000 people are affected by the famine,” she declared, “and of these some 15,000,000 cannot possibly be saved.” Explaining that $12 will save one adult or two children, Mrs. Smith urged every one to contribute as: heavily as possible arid to subscribe to all eritertainments in behalf - of the Chinese, concluding with the advice to “capitalize our own judgment to create enduring gratitude on the other side of the world,” vt The next event on the program was a skit: revealing life in*a.Chinese . school, written by Fung Kei Liu, ’22, and directed by C. Garrison, ’21. Miss Liu, as the school teacher,, showed how Chinese children should be educated, while Miss Dong proved irresistible as a little boy, introduc- ing “many Chifiese games and. winning rounds of applause by her Witty~remark$?| . Besides Miss Liu and Miss Dong the cast included: C. Donnelly, ’21; K. Ward, ’21; A. Hay, 23; H. Walker, ’24; C.. Garrison, 21, and V. Liddell, ’22. At the end of he skit Miss Liu ‘told of conditions in “hina, and thanked the audience for their: help. The college orchestra then played the rest of the evening fot dancing.

Hence it was Ms... called the:“‘Edison effect.” - . Scientists long studied the “effect” but they could not cman it satisfactorily. “Now, after years of experimenting with Crookes ’ tubes, X-ray tubes and radium, it is known that the current that | sr anonedinghy minute particles. leaps across is a stream of “electrons” — _ negatively charged with electricity. These electrons play an important part in wireless communica- _ tion. When a wire grid is interposed between the filament and the plate.and charged positively, the plate is aided i in drawing electrons across; but when the grid is charged: negatively it drives back the elec- ve "trons. A very small charge applied to the grid, as small‘as that re- . ceived from a feeble wireless wave, is enough to vary the electron stream. aS | So the grid in the tube cable: a faint wireless impulse to control "the very much greater amount of energy in the flow of electrons, and ceptible by the effects that they produce. Just as the movement of w a.throttle controls a great locomotive in motion, so a wireless wave, e ee ey ee by means of tlie grid, affects the powerful electron stream. ss ~All this followed from studying the ayant “Edison effect "— @ purely. scientific discovery.
