But large condensers ure both expensive and bulky, and for these reasons the larger sizes are nded out of consideration, perhaps the largest that need be used is .1 microfarad unit This condenser will introduce a distortion of less than 1 per cent for the lowest audible note. A condenser as smell as .1 microfarad will not Introduce more than 8 per cent suppression at 15 cycles a second and much less at higher frequencies. frrlit d con-dens- er series-connecte- d SIMPLICITY OF RADIO By POWEL CROSLEY, JR. RADIO When one , WAVES. TUNING talks over the telephone one has wires to puide the energy, where it Is supposed to go and an exchange girl to give one the proper connection. But what are we to do In listening over the radio, with no wires to guide the rudlo waves, and no radio exchange girls? We learn very quickly what to do after acquir' ing a radio set We must be our own the dials and girl, turning exchange working the controls until we get the station we want We are told that this act of playing exchange girl Is called "tuning." But what happens when wo turn all these gadgets? To understand this we will go out Into the yard nnd get in a swing. A porch swing will do, but, a rope swing Is better, because It will respond more promptly to the stunts that we are going to make it do. We will get on the seat, shove off. Then we will push as hard as we can and see bow high wa vmm hut u'tt mh oBwlnir . lino ' ' " Ihfno v....3 ...... notice very promptly Is that we have to keep giving pushes at Just the right In order to swing higher and Ctervals If we push at the wrong times push back when we are still going forward, for Instance we will Sway around like a sailor Just come ashore, with sea legs, careening this way one Instant and that wuy the next, and getting nowhere. Thus the awing tends to vibrate back and forth at a certain rate. Just Uke a clock pendulum. By shortening the ropes, we can make tlie time of these swings, or vibrations, shorter or by lengthening the ropes we can make it longer. The time required for one complete trip back and forth Is called the "natural period" of the 1 Keep Batteries Upright .The practice of placing dry "B" batteries on their sides or backs Is strongly disapproved by battery makers. If you wish to obtain the longest possible life from your batteries keep them standing upright ing this station, to adjust the receiving equipment to that same period. In order to get the best of results. The broadcasting station Is like the man pushing the swing, and tlie receiving station like the swing. Unless one Is properly timed to the other, there will be little result In practice, each broadcasting station is allotted, by the government, a certain specified period, frequency, or wave length, to which lis equipment must be adjusted. By turning the dials of his receiving set, and thereby changing its period, the radio listener may then shift from oue broadcasting station to another. Few Changes in Radio in Sight, Says Expert Dr. J. 11. chief of the radio division of the bureau of standards, declared recently whrle Inspecting the Kolster plant In Newark with a party of 40 members of the Institute of Itadio Engineers that it will be several years at least before the present radio receiver will be changed to any great extent "People have quit waiting for some revolutionary discovery In radio-- to upset present coudltious, and they are receivers into taking .broadcast betheir homes In the lief that they are getting a standardized instrument which is not going to be out of date for many years," he said. "Any doubting Thomases who are still postponing their enjoyment of present broadcast reception, anticipating some sweeping changes, are waitMinor reing In vain, I am afraid. finements may be expected continuously, but the basic operation and results, as found In the latest sets, will remntn unchanged for some time." Static und fading, which he considers caused by the sun, may le overcome in the future, but research Is still far from the solution, he sdded. Experiments which may eventually cure fading are being made with a governor on a receiving set which will automatically Increase sensitivity ns fading begius and decrease It as signals grow stronger, but its perfection is not ' yet In sight. "Before seeing IVctor Alexander-son'- s experiment I was very skeptical about radio 'movies,' but I am convinced It Is only a matter of time and the development of discoveries alVision by radio in the ready made. home may be the next important Improvement.
