A Range-Finder.
From Harners Round Table.


1t isn't necessary for us to go deep into
electrical science to understand how a
Iange-inder does it's work. Electricity
itself is great mystery, and puzzle in
many ways to those who understand it
pest Most of us have not been able to
grasp Its simpler puzzles until we studied
mem in college, and even then it would
not be well for us to boast of what we
knew. All we need to know, however, to
understand the range-finder is a little
proo!em in geometry. Most of you under
STAND that if we have a triangle, and
KNOW the length of one side and the size
VI the angles at the ends of that side, we
can hgure exactly the length of the other
lwo sides and the distance of the point
wnere those two sides meet. Well, that
v1pIalns Just how the range-finder works.

y Tt IN the distance on the enemy's ship.
mat point is where the two unknown
sues OF the triangle come together. There
= no time to figure the distance. A tenth
VI second in these days is too much time
70 De lost. We must use electricity to do
Uur nguring. This is the way 1t is done:
me telescopes are turned about on cleo
uc circuits; that is, they are attached
w metal circle charged with electricity.
Inc, me wires from these circles run to a
niue dial down in the hold. The Wheat
s'one bridge or electrical balance system
- USED. That means that the resistance
Vi current through a wire through a
even distance is measured finally by
VA on marking instrument.
No" 1t Is impossible to turn one or both
VI these telescopes on the range-fnders

o.. instrument. Electricity has progressed so
"a "a, mat to the exact foot the dial will
ss'ulcate sthe distance an object is away

5eopes know nothing Of what the dial is

The oraze Tor High Cycle Frsmea.

The unusual demand for high frames Is
n marked feature OF the present cycling
season. Tho theory that high frames arc
best for all cyclers Is erroneous and has
brought about many improbable pur-
chases. Nothing is gained from the use Of
high frame II your anatomy Is Of sort
suitable Co low or medium frame
The height Of frame is TO be determined
only by the riders length Of reach. The
fact that high frames look natty, speedy
and undoubtedly more up 10 date than
the smaller sizes should have no weight
with the rider In making his selection. The
ball Of tho foot must rest comfortably on
the pedal when 1t IL at its lowest point, and
space for rs comfortable a saddle as the
rider requires must be provided for, 50 the
frame height is an arbitrary thing over
which the rider can have no choice beyond
the limit fixed by nature in faShioning his
person.
