An antenna of this sort, will give bet
ter results, In most cases, than any

and will not cut so heavily into the
owners finances.
The function of the antenna for a
receiving set Is TO absorb the maxi
mum amount of energy radiated from
a transmitter. This mean that 1t
must be so built and placed as to be
as efficient as possible. The factors
governing the type Of aerial to be
erected are as follows:
Amount of space available.
The amount of money which Is to
be spent.
The wave-length range which is to
be received.
The distance from which signals are
sent.
An aerial possesses both distributed
capacity and inductance, which COM
bined give IL a defined period of oscll-
lation. These oscillations will set up
a wave motion the length of which Is
related to the capacity and inductance
by a formula which can be closely APP
proximated by multiplying the length
of the antenna In feet, plus the length
of the Iead-ln In feet, by 1.22. This
will give the fundamental length

Constitutional Amendment for Federal Control
of Marriage and Divorce
By DEAN C. J. Hike, Drake University Law College.

A national law entirely repeating the common law and providing
for the ages of consent, and the publication of the banns a reasonable
period before the marriage takes place, together with requirements Of
health certificates given by a reputable physician, would do much to
solve our matrimonial and divorce tangle.
1t is possible to be single in one state and married in another. How
such national ~sipshodness can be expected to induce in the young any
honor for the institution of marriage is more than l can see. This
ouesion of federal control of marriage and divorce has been before
the American people for many years; the forty-eght states have prac-
tically forty-eight different views of the subject.
Under our present system, without an nwarranted extension OF
the mowers of congress by construction, the federal government does not
have jurisdiction over marriage and divorce within the states
Therefore a constitutional amendment giving congress such power
will have to be adopted, and the sooner this is done the better it will
be for our national welfare.

Because America Has Been the Haven of
Refuge to the Disinherited
By SAMUEL WEST, Prose Essay

By SAMUEL WEST. Prose Essay. Denver Community Contest
l became an American citizen for the opportunity to be a citizen of
the greatest republic in the world and to help constitute government Of
the people, by the people and for the people.
Because by becoming an American citizen I realized for the first
time In my life that men are created equal by being endowed with the
rights and privileges guaranteed by the Constitution of the United
States to rich and poor alike.
Because it is a mark of distinction to be a citizen Of a country
which has progressed more in science, invention and industry in the one
hundred and forysix years of its independence than any other country
in the world.
Because America has always maintained that right is might and
has always been of service to the world, maintaining that the badge of
service is the badge of sovereignty.
Because America has been the haven of refuge to the dsinheried,
the oppressed, the suffering and the submerged.
Because its symbols are the law and torch;
Not the sword to threaten slaughter;
Not the flame to dazzle and scorch,
But a light that the world may see
And the truth that shall set men free.

Disrespect for Observation-Disclosures to Abide
by the Laws of the Land
By SENATOR I. L. LENRooT of Wisconsin.

If this great republic of ours, in which civilization has found its
highest expression, shall some day fall and occupy only a page in history,
like the ancient republics of Greece and Rome, it will be because of dis
respect for laws, indifference to the fundamental rights of liberty, and
through such Indifference failure to enact and enforce laws, without
which there can be neither liberty nor security for our people.
Today our greatest national problem is not foreign entanglements,
nor the tariff, not transportation, or other problems which we deem
important, but it is disrspect for law-unwilngness to abide by the
laws of the land.
Some men try to justify this disrespect for law upon the plea that
the laws are unjust. But to permit every man to decide for himself
whether a law is just .or not, and not be bound by it if he believes it
unjust, spells anarchy and ruin. There must be implanted in the hearts
of the men and women of America the determination that the laws must
be obeyed, and the man who excuses IT makes light of violation of law is
himself guilty. The deliberate violator of law is an enemy of the republic
and is not worthy of citizenship in it.
