number; to get into communication
with any desired station, all the oper-
ator has to do is to send out the cali
of that station, when the latter will
answer "Ay, ay," and be ready to con-
verse with the calling station. The
number of stations given wireless sta
tion can speak to is limited only by
the powerfulness of the latter.
A small pack set can usually COM
municate with any other equal set
over distance Of about twenty-five
miles. in any direction.
For communication over longer
distances. say. fifty miles. what is
known as cart" set is used Here
the wireless sets are mounted on a
cart and the dynamo Is run by a gaso-
line engine. The cart is drawn by
horses. and typical European cart sets
are shown in some of the photo
graphs. These sets are much moro
powerful than those of the pack"
variety and take a little longer to put
up.
To get some idea Of how powerful q
wireless set must be to communicate
any given distance 1t may be stated
that 1t takes about two horsepower to
transmit over 100 miles
A third type Of set that is gaining rapid
favor is the automobile set. In these the
dynamo for the sending set is driven by

heavily built and powerful machine.
capable of travelling over open country.
AS shown in one Of the photographs Of
a Belgian automobile station 1t some
times Is used to haul carts behind 1t which
carry the mast sections for the antenna
masts.
Often everything is carried on the
machine and the sets are built directly
into the car. Automobile stations are
the most powerful Of all and have a COM
munication range of 200 or $50 miles. They
are used as central stations or as field
headquarters for the general staff OF the
army and are arranged to operate with
the pack or cart sets carried by the
various regiments scattered over con-
siderable area: for. 1t must be remember
ed that the German army is today
stretched out over line $50 miles in
length, and 1t is largely by means CT
wireless telegraphy that operations over
this vast battle line are carried on.

SURVIVAL OF OLD CUSTOM
Channel islander Has Recourse to
"cry for Freedom" a Relic
Of the Past e.

A strange custom, dating back at
least to Norman times, was revived
in Alderney, in the Channel islands.
Daniel Sebire Jurat, iusticier-
elect of Attorney, whose election the
royal court at Guernsey had annulled
because he had been sentenced to a
term of Imprisonment some years
ago, raised a Glamour de Haro," or
a "cry for justice" against a fresh
election by kneeling bareheaded at
the entrance of the court house and
exclaiming, "Haro! Haro! Haro |
a laide, mon Prince! On me fait
tort" (Help, my princel l am
wronged,)
The Glamour de Haro," an an
cient custom of "crying for justice"
still survives in the Channel islands.
The appellant must on his knees and
before witnesses raise the cry, which
acts as an injunction until the all
legged tort or trespass has been adju-
dictated upon by the court. If the
t~respasser continues, he is liable to
arrest and punishment.
Though the Glamour is still legal
in the Channel islands, recourse to
1t Is very rare, and there had been
no instance of it in Alderney for
two centuries. 1t is, however, a very
effective procedure. The derivation
popularity ascribed to the plea is
curious. "Haro" is said to be an abb
breyiation Of ola RolIo!" a direct
appeal to RoIlo, the first duke of
Normandy, and is thus traced back
to Tie days when there were no
courts and justice was personally
melted out by princes. 1t is, however,
more probable that "Haro!' is SIM
ply an exclamation to attract atten-
ton.
A similar custom, applicable only
IN criminal cases, was the Saxon
"cIamor y~iolentin," which was in ex-
istcnce at the time Of the Norman
invasion.

APPEARANCE OF MARS.

Should the planet Mars always an.
pear round 10 the observer, or should
it, like Venus, show only part Of its
circular disk? The planet presents
a slightly "gibbors" appearance when
it is in quadrature or nearly so, i. e.,
when it is about six hours away from
the sun. As an extreme at such
times, the loss of light would result
in an illumination about equivalent
to that of the moon when three DAYS

in opposition, it is of course fully
illuminated, and at other times its
phase, as given above, is not very no
