JAP AND AMERICAN
CLUB IS ORGANIZED
Tokio Now Has League to Fur
ther Interests of Both
Nationalities.
MANY MUTUAL INTERESTS
(Correspondence of The Aseoclated Prose.)
Tokio, March 25. Although there
exist many organizations in Japan in
which American! and Japanese have
an active membership there has never
been formed an association which
would serve as a general link between
the two peoples. That void now has
been tilled by the lormation ot an
American-Japanese association to
bring about an exchange of ideas on
questions which concern Japan and
the United Slates.
Viscount Kentaro Kaneko of the
privy council presided at the organi
zation meeting, which was attended
by about fifty representative Japanese
and Americans. The Japanese in
cluded Baron Shihusawa, Baron Sa
katani, Mr. Shiedhara, vice minister
of foreign 'affairs; Baron Megata,
chairman of the Harvard club; Mr.
Hioki, former minister to China; Ad
miral Baron Una, Dr. J. Soyeda, J.
Inoupe, president of the Yokohama
Specie bank; Baron Kanda, Dr. T.
Dan and others. George W. Guthrie
(since dead), the American ambas
sador, and his staff were present.
Viscount Kencko referred to 'the
great need of such an association as
was proposed and said he thought it
would be a convenient and useful me
dium for the exchange of views on
questions of interest between Japan
and the United States, more especially
those involving the issue of race. He
thought, also, it would afford means
for a more frequent and less formal
intercourse between Japanese and
Americans.
Ambassador Guthrie.' in a speech
which was . applauded, expressed the
opinion that, the new -organization
would till an important and useful
place. He believed it desirable, he
said, that more emphasis be olaced
on the points in which Japan and
the United -States are alike and that
less stress be laid upon the ways in
which the two peoples are alleged to
be different. He referred to the oc
casional irresponsible and petty utter
ances, sometimes mischievous, of
which too otten people were inclined
to make mountains. He added: "I
have just made a visit to the temde
at Ikegame, near Tokio, and there was
pointed out to me a monument raised
to the memory of the American sail
ors who perished in the wreck of the
United states frieate Onedia in Yo
kohama Bay in 1870. As the inscrip
tion says, this stone was erected by
tender and reverent Japanese. I won
der how many people at home know
of this touching tribute of the Japan
ese people. 1 ins is what I mean by
dwelling more on the sympathy be
tween us."
Other speakers were Baron Shibu-
sawa and Dr. Takamine of New York.
A committee of orcramzation was
appointed and it is expected that 300
representative Japanese will join the
new' body. A banquet Wilt' be held
at a later date.
The aim of the association is con
structive. It will supplement in a
way the work of the Japanese So
city of New York.
BUFFALO HERD IN DANGER
Pawnee Bill's Appeal to Government
Authorities for Protection of
Species Against Killers.
Another of Pawnee Bill's buffaloes
has been shot and killed. This time
it was a 4-year-old heifer, as fine a
specimen as is in the herd. Last year
ii waa nis prixx duii mat wassnor. it
was found just at dark and was still
warm, which led to the belief that it
had been done by the Indians or by
some white man, intending to come
and set it under cover of darkness.
and trade it to the Indians. It is i
known fact that the Indians hold the
buffalo in great reverence. He olavs
an important part in all their sacred
councils, medicine meetings and re
ligious rites, , ".
I he Wichitas, Comanches, Chey-
ennes and Arapahoes make annual
visits to the buffalo ranch to make
medicine - with the buffalo. Pawnee
Bill says he cant believe this is the
work of the Indians, for they have al
ways shown such great friendship for
him and the buffalo. He would rather
think it is cattle thieves who are
aware that the' Indians will pay any
price or trade their best pony for a
chunk of buffalo meat. '
This makes ' four that have been
shot,, three bulls and one heifer.. If
they should continue to kill the bulls
there is great danger of annihilating
the herd. -.
Pawnee Bill lias appealed to the
county and state officials and now in
tends to anneal to the Deoartment'of
Justice at Washington for protection,

BIG OPENING FOR INVENTORS.
Suggestions for Articles Which
- Would Fill Long Felt Wsnts
and Find Market
The practical minded inventor, as
well as the one who has but a mod
est income, should always ask him
self these important questions, before
spending his money on models or
patent fees: .
First, is the device useful? Second.
does it fill an actual want? Third, if
is the device practical and can it
be readily manufactured and mar
keted? Fourth, is there a similar ar
ticle on the market already?
As to the sutrnestions we advance
below, we believe that they cover all
our requirementj. There is positive
demand tor all ot the devices and it
the correct solution is found, each in
vention will undoubtedly prove a
handsome moneymaker. I
Electrical Air Cooler At the pres
ent time we use fans in the summer
to "cool" our sweltering humanity.
Fans really don't cool, but simply
stir up the heated atmosphere, and
by causing drafts evaporate the
moisture on our skins. This gives a
cooling sensation. Electric fans, how
ever, does not reduce the room tem
perature to any great extent and for
that reason are makeshifts at best.
We should produce cold (lowering ot
the temperature) by some other elec
tric -means. Peltier shewed us that
cold "can be produced by crossing a
bar of bismuth with a bar of anti
mony and sending an electric current
through it in a certain direction. This
is Peltier's cross. Why cannot this
principle or a similar one-rbe sup
plied on a commercial scale, and in
cidentally make a fortune for its in
ventor? -
Electric Insect Destroyer Every
summer we are exasperated by flies
and mosquitoes. Why not keep them
out of the house or kill them by some
electrical means? Electrically charged
wire netting has been used already,
but it has many inherent faults. As
a rule such netting cannot be used
on windows as water or moisture puts
the device out of order. Something
more practical if required. Insects
as a rule keep away from highly
charged conductors (high frequency
or Tesla currents). Perhaps this hint
will put somebody on the right track.
Electric Toys There is an im
mense market for cheap electric toys.
Something is wanted to keep a boy
amused with a good electric toy op
erated by a dry cell. Years ago we
saw an electric motor that sold for
10 cents and actually ran. It was
badly designed and badly made,
otherwise the S and 10 cent stores
would be selling 1,000,000 or more of
them a year. Here is a rich field
and it matters little if the article can
be marketed for 10 cents or $1 if
the toy is right. .
Electric Window Attractors A
vast field for the clever inventor.
Movable window attractions are in
ever-growing demand. Everybody
stops and looks at the least mysti
fying movable sign or. whatnot. Elec
tricity and magnetism supply unend
ing combinations and providing the
device is novel and. cheap, thousands
can be sold. Every retail store can
use one. Can you supply it?
Bell "Softener" A poor title for
want of a better one. The harassed
modern business man is of late de
veloping what is termed as the "tele
phone heart." Every time the phone
rings he starts and if he is very nerv
ous he jumps involuntarily. At home
his wife is developing the same
disease. What is wanted, badly, is a
device that will do away with the
harsh, abrupt sound. Something "soft"
and mellow that doesn't jar one's
nerves, and at the same time is not
too muffled, otherwise the calling sig
nal cannot be heard in the next room.
Simply unscrew the gongs and re
place with your device. Can you fur
nish 500,000 at, say, $1 each? Elec

WHY NOT MARRY HELLO GIRL?
Expert Says Their Training Makes
then Ideal Mates, and
Tells Why.
Why not marry a telephone girl?
Not that this is a startling new idea.
For telephone girls have been mar
ried in great numbers. They usually
marry after two or three years of
service in those vast, mysterious cen
tral offices the public knows so little
about. But having recently looked
over a whole exchange full of hello
girls I am impressed with the idea
that they would make excellent wives.
And I shall tell you why:
1. Only girls in robust health are
chosen as operators.
2. Only those of mental and physical
alertness survive their apprenticeship.
3. Telephone girls keep their heads.
4. Telephone girls are amiable.
(And maybe this ought to be put first
instead of fourth).
5. Only girls who are amenable to
reason and guidance are selected.
6. Only girls who "apply to their
clothing the principles of common
sense, good taste and thrift keep their
places at the switchboard.
And if these are not enough reasons
why you should marry them, I may
add that 80 per cent of central office'
girls are attractive in looks and pleas
ant of manner.
As for choice in types and coloring
say I (Get the telephone company's
permission some time to go through
the exchange).
The blondes and the red heads are
my choice. But, of course, you may
prefer the raven tressed, the chestnut
thatched or the browns. As a matter
of fact, you are safer to pick out the
medium shades. Miss Schmitt says.
Katherine Schmitt has been em
ploying, girls for the telephone com
pany a good many years. She began
like the girls she now trains, and ad
visesat the "B" switchboard. .
Miss Schmitt says that the medi
um iinted onej "wear the best," all
things considered. Anyone extreme in
coloring get the idea is apt to be
more extreme in temperament. New

English Prisoners
In Germany .Wish
To Stay in Country
(Correapondene. of Th Associated Pre..)
London, March 25. Lord Newton
a few days ago in the House of Lords,
caused surprise by stating that many
British prisoners at Ruhleben. Ger
many, had no desire to return to Eng
land. It is now learned that then
are about 800 of these prisoner!, Brit
ish subjects, who openly profess sym
pathy with the German cause.
The reason for this large number
of pro-German British, according to
statements made here, is that they art
almost all Germans, born and bred,
who acquired British nationalization
either in England or in some of the
colonies, in order to escape liability
to military service in Germany. Most
of them left Germany specially fof
this purpose, and after residing on
English soil for the minimum period
requisite to naturalization, they re
turned to the Fatherland snd resumed
their ordinary life. The interned pris
oners also include their sons and
grandsons. There are also natives of
Austria, German, Switzerland and
Russia, who similarly acquired Brit
ish citizenship.
There was much indignation among
these pseudo-British at the outbreak
of the war, when they suddenly
found themselves interned as were
out-and-out Englishmen. There were
many protests, but the police replied
that they had sheltered themselves
from military service under their al
leged British nationality and must
fake' the consequences. At first they
were carefully distributed among, the
purely British prisoners for observa
tion and espionage purposes: The
Englishmen countered with a boycott
which eventually resulted in the
separation of the two elements.
Whenever one of the pro-Germans
asked for leave, the officer of the
day would say, "What regiment do
you wish to join?" In the end about
300 volunteers for the German army
were obtained from the camp.
