1SS0@rhe sending of IN electric cur
rent through earth was systematical-
ly studied by John T~rowbridge of
Harvard. 1t was found that signal
ing might be carried on over large
distances between places not connected
by wires.
1SS5-It was found that telephone
speech could be conveyed by induction
over n space of quarter mile. This
experiment took place In England.
1SS9-Electric waves were sn5-
gested as being particularly suitable
for the sending of signals through
fogs.
1S92-An instrument for the detec-
ton of electromagnetic waves was
discovered which was given the name
of a "coherer."
1804-A scientist of Berlin signaled
through three miles of water.
1895-ulgh frequency waves excite
curiosity of Senatore Marconl.

successful signaling was carried out
over distances rs great as one n
one-quarter miles. Sir William Preece
of the British p~ostoffice system in
terested his cohorts in Marconi's wire
less experiments.
1S07-Marconl establishes communi-
cation between points four miles dis

%antennae.
Marconi demonstrates his wireless
system before the king of Italy, COM

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 a re-
cent perfection rather 1t Is that intro
duetlon to the layman of the human
voice and music has suddenly popular
lied something that wireless men had
thought a pastime or amusement. Here
is the chronological record of wire

1627-It was found that the mag
netic discharge from Il leyden jar
would magnetic Il steel needle.
SOL = electromagnetic induction
was discovered between two entirely
separate circuits by Michael Faraday.
1S37@Gooke and Wheatstone Of
London, England, and Morse of the
United States take out first patent for
electric telegraph.
1S3S-K. a. Steinhell of Munich
suggested that IA system of wireless
telegraphy could be established after
his discovery of the use of the earth
return.
1S40-Joseph Henry (U. S. Az pro-
duced the first hlgh-frequency cleo
trio oscillations. and stated that the
condenser discharge is oscillatory.
1872 Wireless experiments were
made by S. i. b. Morse by electric
conduction through water across
Washington canal and across wide
rivers.
1S43-A wireless system for trans
atlantic communication was suggested.
1845-Water was used as a conduct
Ing medium In wireless experiments
across a wide river.
1S49-Intelligible signals were act
ually sent across a river $500 feet
wide in India, but the cost was found
rrohibitlve for commercial use.

now utilized in wireless telegraphy

"Suttee" In India Now Abolished.


The practice of wives casting them
selves upon the funeral pyre of their
deceased lord, and perishlng in the
flames that consumed his body, once
prevailed universally in India, and is
still occasionally reported, although
the British have had stern orders
against the custom for decades. It
Is called "suttee," and was believed to
reunite the husband and his wives in
paradise. 1t Is said that after the
death of a particularly wealthy rajah,
his II widows burned themselves ON
his funeral pyre, and In Bengal alone,
when the practice vas at its height, 700
thus persisted in a single year. The
British formally abolished the "suttee"
in 1929, but 1t still takes place occa.

CHECKING WATCHES BY RADIO
Arlington Government Station Sends
Signals Between 9:55 and
10 p. m.

Here Is the method of checking
your watch by radio signals which are
relayed from the government station
at Arlington:
The signals are given between 0;55
p m. and 10 D. M, eastern time. Each
second of naval observatory time Is
Sent as a dot making a distinct tick
in your phones. The tick for the TWEEN
ty-ninth second of each minute is omit
ted, making a noticeable pause. AT
the end of each minute the signals are
omitted for several seconds, making a
longer pause. At the end of the fifty
ninth minute the signals are omitted
for ten seconds, making a much long
err pause.
This silence is broken by a dash,
which is heard as a continuous sound
for several seconds. The beginning
Of this dash is the zero second of the
new hour, or exactly ten o'clock, seven
ty-tifth meridian hour.

Tact VS.. Talent.

Talent Is something, but tact Is
everything. 1t is not a sixth sense,
but it Is the life of all the five. 1t
is the open eye, the quick ear, the
judging taste, the lively touch. 1t is
the surmounter of all difficulties. the
remover of all obstacles. Tact makes
no false steps; hits the right nail on
the head; loses no time; takes all
hints, and by keeping his eye on the
weather cock Is ready to take advan-
tage of every wind that blows.

A convenient way to check your
watch Is to follow the second hand DUR
ing the first part of the signals, thus
noting the position of the second hand
relative to the end of the minute. The
minute hand should be observed dur

with the signal for 10 p. m. In this
way you can tell exactly how many
minutes and seconds your watch needs
to be changed.
