How Wireless Works.
"'rO strip wireless Of it's technicali.

constituents is not hard" said an eN-

theory and knows the practice. 1T is
simply transference through space Of
waves of electromagnetic energy.
"Nhen Il wireless operator presses 4
key Il spark jumps between two
pieces of metal. These two pieces Of
metal are connected with long wires
called antennae, that are strung on
poles called ~aerialS. The energy from
this spark is spread on these wires and
ditfuSeu in waves.
These waves have definite LENGTH

through the power of the sending sta

these is able to put itself in tunc to
