Music Weck-The
Modern Pied Piper
ry VICTOR NEuuAus.

"HE Pied Piper of Hamlin,
whose music charmed the
rats cut of their holes and
enticed the children to the
charmed mountains came to Den
yer to play part in Music
Week.
Music may be for good or it
may be for bad. 1t may incite
bloody murder or it may arouse
passionate love. 1t can bring
great devotion or arouse intense
hatred. Music opens the gates
of heaven and is always at its
best at funeral.
The history of Music Week is
still young but it throws strange
lights upon the perVersity of the
public. Like ell so-called sue
cesses, Music Week is built upon
worthy failures. 1t has risen
| from failures, the aims of which
were even more worthy than our
present Music Week.
Music Week was started two
years ago in New York city. The
movement was begun by manu-
facturers Of musical instruments
| for musical advancement. That
same year Denver held its first
Music Week, the plans of which
aimed higher than in succeeding
years. 1t was ewing to this high
aim that the results were dis
astrous.
The Pied Piper had not then
put in an appearance. II is claim
ed this same Pied Piper was not
really the best musician milan
lin. All the real musicians of
his day said he was no musician
at all. But this adverse critic
ism may be set down to profes-
sional jealousy. Anyway, he
put his piping over He charmed
where others failed.

PROGRESS OF RADIO
THROUGH THE YEARS
Wireless Research Began Long
Ago, But Development Has
Been Swift Lately.

Wireless research started many
years ago, as far back even as 1927.
Even the radio telephone is not re-
cent perfection; rather 1t is that intro
duction to the layman of the human
voice and music has suddenly popular
lied something that wireless men had
thought 4 pastime or amusement. Here
is the chronological record of wire
less:
1ScT-It was found that the mag
netic discharge from a leyden jar
would magnctlze a steel needle.
1881 - electromagnetic induction
was discovered between two entirely
separate circuits by Michael Faraday.
1s3T-Cooke and Wheatstone of
London, England. and Morse OF the
United States take out first patent for
electric telegraph. I,
1SSS-K. A. Stcinhell of Munich
suggested that system OF wireless
telegraphy could be established after
his discovery OF the use of the earth
return.
1S40-Joseph Henry u. s. Al pro-
luced the first hlgh-frequency cleo
tric oscillations. and stated that the
condenser discharge is oscillatory.
1912 - Wireless experiments were
made by S. +. Z. Morse by electric
coaduction through water across
Washington canal and across wide
rivers.
1S43-A wireless system for trans
atlantic communication was suggested.
1Si5-Water was used rs conduct
ing medium In wireless experiments
across a wide river.
1S49-Intelligible signals were act
ualfy sent across river $500 feet
wide in India, but the cost was found
prohibitive for commercial use.

now utilized in wireless .telegraphy

The American Telephone and Telc-
graph company succeeded in radio tel

Several new long range stations
were erected in the United States, it
being claimed for one built at Annapo-
lis, Nd. that it was capable of com
inunication at 1000 miles. The United
States government also opened n high
power station at Bordeaux.
In September Of this year radio sig
nails sent from point 1000 miles
away We're received in Sydney, Aus
traia.
1o19-With the exception of the
three transatlantic flights-that of the
L. S. NC-4, and the British flights of
Aleock and Brown and the dirigible
R-3I, in which radio communication
played an important part in keeping
the ships of the air on their courses
no very great progress was made In
radio telegraphy, although radio tele
phony was being pushed along quietly.
Restrictions upnn amateur receiving
and sending were lifted by the Ameri-
can government.
1920-This was the year of the radio
telephone, more attention probably be-
ing paid to this branch of radio than
to its older brother telegraphy. Sew
