of tha paper It is to append your name nama and address but ut these are held In confidence and will not be published Dear Cear Miss Blair May I enter your cozy corner You Vou are such to I thought you might help me in my troubles troubles I J guess when you have read my story you will despise me as a grumbler but oh M Miss ss Blair life has got the best of me I 1 guess I Dont Don't know which way to turn cloud has a that They rhey say every silver silve lining but mine seem never to turn I I married a few years ago a I I wonderful man He has been the best best husband and father that ever lived Hived lived He worships me and the I children and does everything for us that is in his power to do But bad I luck in the form of idleness and unemployment unemployment un- un employment has employment has stalked us ever I since our marriage The result BILLS bills bills doctor bills doctor bills furniture furniture furniture fur fur- bills hospital bills Oh all sorts orts of bills sorts Last July my baby boy was born One month later my husband became became be- be came came so ill that an operation was his his' only hope and ever since then failed Of my my health has steadily course I l have been constantly under the doctors doctor's care and at first I puzzled him somewhat but now he Stells tells me that there will be another little stranger in August That means more bills to add to our burdens bur bur- dens Then my year three-year-old son sonis sonis sonis is is badly in need of having his tonsils tonsils tonsils ton ton- sils removed which our doctor wishes to do immediately What would you do were you in my i. i my place Miss Blair just grin and bear it After all I guess that is is all all that I can do isn't it That IS is what my husband always says says says- Well kiddo life has given us some pretty hard knocks but I love you Jo so o much bett better r for the way you 1 have 1 nave ave borne up under then And God has been good to bless our home with such beautiful children We Ve can never thank Him enough 1 for for that I blessing lessing when he Oh how ashamed I am talks stalks to me like that I want oh so I many times to scream out to him himI that hat J I am not me the angel mother he thinks I am I want to tell him how flow much I bemoan our RIi plight ht but no no no Im I'm too much of a coward to todo todo do that and when he Jie comes home I r Ismile smile and make him think what a wonderful little sport he has married mar mar- I Tied red when in my heart soul and I body I am ill and tired to death 4 Now Miss Blair its it's all out and nd 1 guess you despise and hate me the coward and quitter than I II Ii i I really am And dont don't be afraid to tell ell m me so I guess I really need a hood good jolt to bring me to my right senses and I hope you'll give me a good good one I want to be fair to my c. c 9 husband and babies Will you tell me how Miss Blair Thank you I lam HOPELESS Salt Lake No you are NOT OT any of the things y you U wish tb to call yourself nor are you hopeless hop less even though things jolt wish to call yourself Possibly Possibly- what we intend to to say sa to you will be a jolt but we think not of the kind you jOU anticipated husbands husband's point of view Is iR traditional but brit but not practical and you jOU having soma om of the modern woman In you are not willing TO I ACCEPT WITHOUT QUESTION what life has given you And An you are RIGHT Children when the theare they are planned for and wanted and can be taken care of are the most most wonderful wonderful wonderful won won- blessings in the world but under some conditions It is is oh so frightfully unfair to the poor little souls souls to to say nothing of the poor harassed parents parents to to bring them into the world You have your children children chil chil- dren and will have one more With these a loving husband and the promise of better things for tor the future future fu future fu- fu ture you ou can build your life liCe from now on more nearly as your our MIND and heart dictate dictate IF IF YOU WILL VILL Ill THINK PLAN and ACT ACl ACT AHEAD not not Just let life treat you you ou as It More children mean more poor POOl health more bills neglect for for foi forthe the little ones already here in fact if the past is to be a criterion more of what has been would probably spell disaster for what might be 3 a a. happy prosperous future futuro for all of you ou You owe It to the children already here to yours yourself lt and to your husband to tal take e the steering tt ering wheel of your our life liCe into your own hands to build up Ip your health and md to conquer In spite of everything You can do It it and we feel that hat you ou i will There are so many things that thai wed we'd like to discuss with you ou and to straighten out Wont Won't yo you come ir in inand and talk tall it it over with us We Ve feet feel sure that we can point out a few Cew guideposts for the future and to tc- suggest ways s and antI means Life has the b better of you right at the time but not for long and You vou are going to o turn out ut the silver lining and keep it that way Forthe Forthe For or the next few months you may have to go along along- as best you can just can just grin and bear it for a a. a little longer long THEN things are going to be dif dif- different ferent There are ways and means I by which you can help out financially financially finan finan- dally as well as Inspirationally to your husband anu slowly but surely you can clear up the bills and go ahead with clear track and anel a con con- science Ill In health on the part of either ither of you to say nothing of on he the part of both is enough h to make the he present resent and future look 1001 black but ut that that obstacle to happiness can be overcome too if you'll both take stock of things By Dy all i means have your little littleson's littleson's sons son's tonsils removed as they may affect more than just his throat If diseased If you ou cannot afford to pay r for the operation well we'll suggest a a away i way out when you come corns In Iv to talk things over Your husband is tr trying ing to keep you cheered up but martyrs IS have no place In the scheme of things these days so we admire you ou for objecting to things as they arc are when there is a possibility of changing them for better and we admire you for the spirit that plays the game bame at the time but Is looking in every corner for fot new inspiration to Improve improve Im im- tn- tn prove the sport Please come me Jn n tor for there are so many thin things s we want to tell you And meantime make mno makeup makeup up your mind that the worst vorst is o over o r and and ha happiness is ahead Dear Deal Miss Blair Will you kindly tell me what war was fought in Denmark around the year 1848 or 1850 Wishing you the best of success and happiness MRS M.

Describe Describe De Dc scribe the action of an intermediate amplifier TED 7 Ted you have waited long time for the answer to your question but finally we have succeeded in getting getting getting get get- ting f for r you a treatise on intermediate intermediate intermediate diate amplifiers written by the hand band of a person versed in the mysteries mysteries mysteries mys mys- teries and lore of radios and their parts and functions Later if you wish to get In personal touch with this radio wizard and will send us usa usa usa a stamped self-addressed self envelope we will send you his name and ad ad- ad dress I am sending you this Information information information mation in exactly the same form In which it was given to us The Intermediate Amplifier The problem of designing efficient efficient effi ern- radio frequency amplifiers especially at high frequencies short waves has been n n. hard one which Is now only partially solved The difficulty of keeping radio frequency frequency frequency fre fre- quency circuits from feeding back backor or interfering with their associated circuits has been much greater with high frequencies than relatively ely low frequencies This difficulty has been the cause for the invention or use of an intermediate amplifier We usually think of an intermediate amplifier as a tube three-tube affair which does something or other but I we just dont don't see what it really Is s. s At present we have two very distinct distinct dis dis- types of intermediate amplifiers amplifier's fiers fier's In use In the popular radio circuits circuits cir cir- cults One tl the e long wave low frequency frequency frequency fre fre- quency amplifier in use in the now familiar and the very high frequency known as the tho The first makes use of the ease of control and stabilization of the thelong thelong thelong long wave amplification by bj the use of transformers The second uses the condenser method of coupling Both are very efficient and have their good points which will be pointed out Both types of Intermediate amplifiers amplifiers amplifiers fiers are designed for the amplIfication amplification amplification cation of one wave length only This fact and the absence of tuning controls con- con l rols on this amplifier makes It comparatively easy to make quite stable and efficient However to adapt this amplifier to modern high frequency transmission the use of ofa ofa ofa a frequency changer or converter must be used Brien Briefly Briefly- the action of a frequency changer Is to superimpose upon the circuit a generated frequency oscillating oscil lating tube circuit and amplify the resultant through the intermediate amplifier which as stated will very efficiently amplify the resultant frequency fre fre- quency In the the beat frequency or the difference in the incoming signal frequency and the generated frequency is amplified and in the the summation summation summation summa summa- tion frequency frequency- or total of the in incoming incoming incoming in- in coming frequency and the generated f V frequency frequent Is is' the t e. e one passed on td to the intermediate intermediate amplifier This type of f amplification necessitates necessitates the use of only tw two controls One to tune to resonance the incon inno in- in the other to toi i no 00 con ing s signal nal and i change the frequency of

After the signal is amplified it Is detected by bya a tube or crystal detector In the usual manner The Is simple and easy to adjust but harmonics or multiples of the generated frequency frequency fre
