There are other oiea for It bealdea acting as a primary and plat coll. Two vsrlocouplers may be uaed In one tot and will make a elective at well as a sensitive regen-erative aet. . . ft A regenerative circuit using two varlorouplera la shown herewith. It will be fairly new to the young fan, but It la a circuit that la very familiar to a great number ot radio bugs. It baa very good distance qiialltlea and gives' a very strong algnnl. The parts for this circuit are as follows: 2 atandard vsrlocouplers. 1 .00025 mfd, variable condenser. 1 grid leak. .. 1 socket. .... , , 1 tube. ' ".. 1 ,001 mfd. fixed condenser. 1 rheostat. - 1 1 Ahaitery. '' : ' ,, 1 22V4-vo- lt 0 hotter.". The primary of the varlocoupler (D is connected to the antenna and ground.,. One side of the secondary (S) la connected to one aide of the primary (LI) of the second vsrtoeonpler. Tin tapa are brought to a switch snd th switch Is connected to the grid througb the .00020 mfd. grid condenser C2 The secondary (L2) Is connected W the plate snd one side of the tele phones. A .0000 mfd. variable con denser (CI) ts connected across the witch on U and the filament returs of the secondary (8). The filament li connected In the conventional manner The following tuning pointers ma be helpful to those who try this cir-cuit, With both rotors set at an an-gle of 43 degrees, snd sbout one-ha-of the wire on LI tapped In, varying the secondary condenser will help lo-cate the broadcasting station. When a station Is located tune In ss loud si possible with the rotor of the first varlocoupler, and the aecondary con-denser. Then try varying the cou-pling of the rotor of the second vsrlo-coupler- j this Is where you will en-counter a Squeal, which Is typical of the tube when In an oscillating condi-tion. Make this adjustment to tht point where you get the strongest stg nal without distortion.

The latest knocker comes out with a statement j that movies are the bunk, that they make criminals of our young, etc. This j is not only foolish, but purely the babbling of an ignoramus. , j , Probably no other secular institution plays so important a part for bet- - ter or worse in our lives as the motion picture. To use the familiar idiom, the movie, as an institution, can make or break us. Moralists have said enough to fill volumes about its evils or supposed evils. Educators have praised it, and not only have pointed out its virtues, but actually have adopt-ed i it in schools of learning. The movie has given employment to many thousands of people; it has become the fourth largest industry in the United States from the standpoint of capital invested. It has amused and instruct-- n ed millions of people, and paid millions of dollars to high salaried pro-- fessionals to make others laugh or weep. It has stirred the fires of ambi tion among thousands who have longed for the magic spell of getting them-selves starred on its silver sheet, or to write the colorful plots to which it owes its life and continuance. It has created an entirely new school of thought, of action, of literature. But what has it done for the average man of the street, store, shop or office; for the woman of the household; and for the boy and girl of the school? What civic and personal benefits can be accredited to the flickering film? To answer but only in the most general terms it has been a great leavening in the melting pot of community life. The motion picture house knows no rich, no poor. It claims all. Here men and women laugh and cry together, and often talk all too much. Here the child gets his drama flat, but faultless; his thrills exhilarating, but safe. No two films were ever exactly alike. That makes them human-lik- e. Leaving out all moral ques-tions, perhaps the worst that can be said of the movie is the utter passivity it not only iffords but relentlessly demands. In this mechanical age we need more exercise and physical recreation than we get in our daily work; that is, we need action with wholesome fun in it. Not for the action that we pay others to perform, but that we do ourselves.- And this is what, from a ., recreative standpoint, the movie cannot supply. It even stifles mental ac-tivity, for it is all too easy tj let .the film drift idly through our mental sys-tems without touching the brain cogwheels. It has no mental teeth in it. We forget what the picture was by the time we get home. This may be our fault and not that of the movie, and it probably is. Each must, find his own answer. .'To offset this, however, we all need at times the silent, rest-ful motion picture, mingledwith occasional hair-bread- escapes, comedies and gray-haire- d mothers. Let the show go on! . . i METHODIST CHURCH NOTES The members of the official board are being circularized by the Coun-cil of Methodism in regard to the convention in the municipal auditor-ium, Denver. I would like to urge that you make an effort to go with the Utah delegation. Fare and a half is being granted on the railroad, and the only other expense will be two dollars, registration fee. Men of note and leading in the religious world are scheduled to speak during the conven-tion which extends from Feb. 1 to 3. The list of speakers include Hon. William D. Upshaw, theme "A So-ber World"; Co!, Raymond Robbins, "Methodism and the Masses," and "The Outlaw of War"; Charles A. Ellwood. "Religion and the Ameri-can Home," E. Dow Bancroft.- "God's Substitute for Financial Drives," E. Stanley Jones. "Christ and the Changing East," Merton S. Ride. "The Place of the Church in Modern Life," Sherwood Eddy. "If Christ Came to Denver," "The Church and the World's Need," Edwin H. Hughes. "The Church and Youth," Ernest Lynn Waldorf. "The Local Church, a Mob or an Army," George Elliott. "The Minister and the Modern World," Charles L. Mead. "The Challenge to Evangelism." Among these noted men there are world statesmen such as Sherwood Eddy; professors of Sociology in men like Prof. Ellwood, and Bishops like Mead, Hughes and Waldorf. These men ought to appeal to the most fas-tidious. There is a great treat in store for all who can make their ar-rangements to go to Denver. The registration is limited to 3,500 men. Here is great opportunity.. The Junior League luncheon is a thing of the past now and the results were very gratifying. The Junior Leaguers were the waiters and the mothers and teachers in the league were the kitchen staff. Great credit is due the league for their work in putting this affair oer. The plans of the Utah mission were that every charge in the state should have evangelistic meetings. The plans are that we join with the Tooele church and the pastor of each church shall help the other. For instance, the pastor of the Tooele church, Rev. Royden D. Zook, will preach at the services here in Bingham the week commencing the 15th of March, and the pastor of the Bingham church will spend two weeks at Tooele in special meetings, ( commencing the 15th of February. In view of these meetings we are beginning the cottage meetings at the home of Mrs. E. E. Longfellow so that we shall have Mrs. West with u in the rrieeting. This meeting will be held Friday evening at 8 p.m. Bingham High Wins (Continued from page 1) over Jordan last week will not turn the heads of the Bingham players. They played a great game, it is true, but there is plenty of room for i1""""" improvement. Alvin Hall, the tall freshie who played forward until recalled on ac-count of fouls showed a world of stuff, caged 4 field goals, besides playing a great floor game. Alvin is fast rounding out into one of the best finds of the year. Once more, let it be said that it is to be hoped that no ill effects will be realized as the result of winning from Jordan. There is a long season ahead, and Bingham needs, a lot of smoothing off. '. Murray, as a result , of their win over the Grantsville five, looms on the Jordan District horizon as one of , the toughest teams in this section. t Watch, out for Murray.- - tor In radio development, he will be-come a mere Incident, without th glory and credit that has belonged te him In the past. The buyer of sn automobile who buys with the Idea of driving It himself and to a large degree caring for It himself, It he Is wise buya a car of relatively small cost and simple construction. Hi studies it until he becomes Intimately acquainted with Its merit and itl weaknesses finds out how to get th most and the best out of It. By th time he has mastered his first car, h la naturally ambitious to possess on of greater attainments; one that will do bigger and better things. And he li fit to be trusted with such a valuable piece of machinery. He ts almost sure, to remark that he la glad that he had sen He enough to learn on the junior. But the tendency of th radio novice Is not to climb the ladder of experience but reach the top by one big bound. To plunge Into elaborate and costly appa-ratus. This leads to poor resuita In re-ceiving, and the rendering of "horrlbls examples" to . the neighbors the di-vorcing from the radio Idea of many who might become enthusiasts and of benefit to the art , The amateur may well stsrt with th crystal set. It presents a fascinating field for experiment lie should mak hla own set If at all mechanically Should learn lta how and why from A to ZL To know when he 1 get-ting all that Is In It, snd If not why not. - There Is a lot of fun and a lot of efficiency In a well-bui- crystal set, and a lot of Joy In receiving over what yoo have made yourself; of showing off your own child. It Is doubtful If re-ceiving over any costly outfit will ever give the genuine satisfaction to th owner that comes from reception over the outfit that cost a few dollars and that he has hlnisslf put together. - Let's get back to tl) old ways, radio friend. Let's start with the crystal set, make a friend of It and learn all of Its tricks. If we must have a set of greater capacity, let's try-On- e of simple con-struction, with, a hook-u- p not over our heads. . Let's try a single tube set and master that before we Jump Into com-plex apparatus.' .' -- , O Belenc ae4 tnveatlos Itedle Nws. r Ten Good Rulei for Broadcast Listeners 1. PoD't try to hear Australia In midsummer. Be satisfied to enjoy the nearer stations most of the time. 2. rn't be disappointed if an occa-sional storm should Interfere with your radio evening. .There are many fine concerts coming,. . You can't ex-pect to find a peark In every oyster nor to. receive a recurd-breaklu- g com cert every night . r ,.. 3. If you want londer signuls, us a longer aerial, more tubes, higher plate voltage, more sensitive loud speakers, and more careful tickler and receiver adjustment. , 4. A pleasant signal filling a moderate-- sized room should be enough to give satisfaction.. It Is not worth while producing signals which deafen the neighbors. It Is wasteful to Insist on tremendous signals which are gen-erally less pleasant than moderate sig-nals. 5. If you locul station cornea In too loudly, and drowns others out, s mailer aerial will help In tuning him out, with , a smaller condenser con-nected between aerial and ground. And if all measures to get rid of the local station fail, why not enjoy his concert? He 1 working hard for you and It la nobody'a fault that you are so close to him that you are bound to hear him. Broadcast atutlons have to be closer to some people than to others. i" 6. For the new longer waves above 450 meters, use a condenser connected between-th- aerial and ground termi-nals of your set. - ,. 7. A Utile patience In learning to handle your receiver yMds rich re-turns In satisfaction from fine signals. Remember that "Koine wasn't built In a day" and keep on gett'n8 In0''s snd more familiar with your set and how It works. 8. It is a good Idea to read the radio column of a newspaper or a good radio magazine or two. It helpe'yoU to Vnow how your iSet works "and keeps jou in radio.

The manufacturer, of your set la also willing to help you get the desired results from Its use. , - . ! 10. Do not throw away the direc-tion aheets or booklet that came with your set and with the tubes. - Head all each material carefully now and then. If you have lost the direction sheet, write to .the dealer or manufacturer for another. The direction sheets answer most of the questions which have been puzzling you and prevent-ing you from getting the bett out of your aet Tools Necessary' When ; Building Radio Outfit For the construction of a radio re-ceiver the following tools sre all that are necessary; One breast drill with assorted size. drills ranging from to H Inch; two good screw-driver- s, one heavy point, one fine point; one pair of compass dividers, one marking tool, one square. . one flat Ole, one three-cornere- d file, two pairs pliers, one heavy electrician's pliers, on sharp nosed electrician's ' pliers, one sharp knife, one hacksaw, one set o good clamps, some sheets of emery and fine sandpaper, one soldering Iron and solder paste and solder. Radio Part of Study Midshipmen of he United States Naval academy at Annapolis have t take up radio and pass a thorough ex-amination before graduation. One of the requirements Is to build a work-able receiver. Should Know Tricks of Favored Crystal Set Those who have the future of the radio amateur at heart are worried. They are not worried over '.he perma-nency of radio as an art or bn a public ntllity. That la assured. But the fu-ture of the amateur phase of radio Is not assured ; there Is a dark cloud hanging over It at the present tme which threatena Its very existence.
