The will of Benjamin Bosse, mayor of Evansville, Ind., and at 

 the time of his death president of the Globe-Bosse-World Furniture

 value of the estate is estimated to be $1,500,000. The estate 

 was left in trust and will be managed by four trustees, of which 

 Mrs. Anna Bosse, the widow, will be chairman. Gilbert Bosse, sec- 

 retary of the Imperial Desk Company, and a nephew of the late 

 mayor was named one of the trustees. Mr. Bosse also ■was left the 

 sum of $4,000 by the late mayor, while his mother was left $1,000 

 under the provisions of the will. George E. Riechmann, manager 

 of the Evansville Furniture Company, was left $5,000. Several 

 other bequests were left to the mayor's brothers, sisters and rela- 

 tives on his wife's side. The mayor also made several bequests to 

 charity and to the city of Evansville, as well as to the Trinity 

 Lutheran church, of which he was a niember.

Cincinnati Firm Is Developing Combined 

 Radio Cabinet and Amplifier 



Through experiments now being carried on by the Queen City 

 Cabinet and Furniture Company, at its factory in Cincinnati, it is 

 believed that Cincinnati will soon have something of interest to 

 offer to radio fans of the country in the shape of a combined "loud 

 speaker" and cabinet unit. 



Otto Ackley, manager of the company, an expert in motors 

 and cabinet work is experimenting with a new style of radio cab- 

 inet in which the receiving instruments and amplifiers are com- 

 bined into a compact unit. Preliminary tests have shown that the 

 cabinet as designed is practical, tones being brought out much 

 clearer through the use of a wood sound box than is possible with 

 a metal amplifier. 



"Radio experts have advised me that there is a demand for a 

 combination loud speaker and cabinet unit in radio and conse- 

 quently I am working on this development," said Mr. Ackley. "By 

 the use of a wood amplifying horn we are doing away with the 

 scratchy sound caused by most of the metal loud speakers. Our 

 experiments have shown that we are on the right track and they 

 will be continued until we have reached perfection. 



"We are planning a cabinet that will cost about the same as 

 an ordinary loud speaker and after we have settled upon a design 

 they will be made in six different models. By using wood in the 

 sound box we are getting a clearer tone and have developed the 

 sound box so that the sound can be thrown in a fan shape into 

 all parts of the room with equal clearness. This is acomplished 

 by extending the top and bottom of the cabinet. We can make 

 a cabinet to fit any sort of room, the largest model being 1 8 inches 

 long, 1 3 inches wide and 1 7 inches high. 



Each cabinet will be equipped with a two-step amplifier making 

 it possible to reproduce almost any sound clearly. As. soon as we 

 have developed the cabinet feature a little farther we will begin the 

 manufacture of complete radio outfits and have the assurance of 

 large electrical houses that if our efforts are successful we will have 

 a wonderful market for our product." 



The plant of the Queen City Cabinet & Furniture Company is 

 being equipped with a great deal of improved machinery, for tak- 

 ing care of the extra demands upon it, the firm having a large wood 

 working business. It constructs cabinets of all kinds and in addi- 

 tion has specialized in airplane work. 



O. P. Perkins, sales manager of the Sellers Company, manu- 

 facturers of kitchen cabinets at Elwood, Ind., recently placed a 

 radio set in his home in North Anderson street in that city. Soon 

 after installing the set, he received from M. J. Sindler, Missouri 

 representative of the company, through Dr. Charles Klinki of the 

 St. Louis Radio school, an order by radio for the shipment of a 

 carload of the Elwood product to a firm in that city.
