way in which they could serve their
country. 1t was the one thing they
knew best-and liked. So they volun-

land and on water.
Never before was there such a

" UR wireless Hmateurs are again
at work after two years Of en-
~ forced idleness. When the
United States entered the world war
one OF the first moves was the shutting
down of all amateur wireless stations
in order to preclude the sending and
receiving of important military and
naval information by spies or unau-
thorized persons, and to reduce wire
less interference to a minimum. But
with the close Of hostilities and after
some months OF indecision. during
which thousands upon thousands OF
young Americans chafed under the
continued restrictions. the ban has
been lifted as from April 10 last.
The wireless amateur is Indigenous
TO America There are very few coun-
tries where amateur wireless stations
are permitted, and in no country has
amateur wireless reached a develop
ment even comparable with that in
the United States. 1t has been con-
servatively estimated that there were
some one hundred thousand wireless
amateurs in this country before the
war. and certainly. from all the
present indications, there will be con-
siderably more In the immediate
future. for reasons dealt with later.
1t was back in 1907 or whereabouts
that amateur wireless started in the
United States. The crude apparatus
OF those days consisted generally OF
a burned out electric lamp. the tip OF
which had been knocked or SO that
It might be filed with a dilute acid
solution, a few cells OF dry battery
and a pair of telephone receivers. The
wireless waves emitted by nearby
Government and commercial stations
were intercepted by a few strands Of
wire elevated a short distance above
the ground. Lucky indeed was the
amateur who was able to receive up
to hundred miles.
The Amateurs Progress.
Progress. however was rapid; for
& is a characteristic OF the wireless
amateur never to be satisfied. He
experimental, tinkered. read. asked
questions of professional radio men,
and did everything else to improve
his station. BY 1910 most amateur
wireless stations were capable OF re-
ceiving messages from stations sew

M wells in the State of Vera

the port OF Tuxpam. For some dis
lance from the shore the water there
is so shallow that few of the large oil
steamships can get into port. The oil
companies hit upon the idea OF laying
submarine pipe lines to points where
the largest oil tankers can be con-
veniently moored for loading in any
state of the tide and weather.
There are now five Of these great
iron pipes in duplicate. They are from,
six to eight inches in diameter. and
four of them are nearly a mile long.

On the other hand, many tales aro

stage debut In 1881 at the Haymarket
Theatre In London, as Kate Hard

duction of "She Stops to Conquer"
she was entirely unconcerned. her chief

art. This very use of the loop. which
will make 1t possible to place ones

corners into the amateur wireless
