or oscillations are also undamped. The
ether vibrat tiops are really waves quite
similar to those which can be seen IN
water. except that they travel faster
and have different lengths
Now 1t will be remembered. especial
ly by those who have travelled on ships,
that the height Cor amplitude) OF the
water waves has great deal to DO
with the motion Of the boat. The
higher the waves the more violently
the boat rolls. Also, if the height OF
each wave is always the same the boat
may rock" with increasing violence
in a regular manner until 1t Is rolling
many degrees each side of its normal
position. But II the waves diminish
in height after the first has passed,
the boat finally comes to steady posi-
tion, at least for a few moments. The
water waves are caused by some force
or forces applied to the water in a
manner similar to radio waves in the
ether. The boat may be likened to
the radio receiver. In which case
would there then be maximum disturb
ance in the receiver at a. long distance.
with damped or with undamped waves?
With undamped waves, of course, since
less of their energy would be lost in
passing from one place to a distant
place. Undamped radio waves suffer less
absorption and travel greater distances
than damped waves, with less loss of
energy. The energy of each wave is
the same as that of every other.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK, April ga recent
survey of the medical situation in the
great fleet of vessels operated by the
United States lines brings out many
greatly enhanced service of ship sur
geons as a result of the perfection of
wireless communication.
Today the surgeon is not only on
duty in caring for the ills OF the
passengers and crew of the ship to
which he is attached, but he is being
made more and more available for
consultation with all vessels within
wireless call.
The surgeons of the United States
lines vessels have more or less
ocean-wide practice. In the days be-
fore the perfection of wireless the
surgeon confined his activities to the
vessel on which he served. Nowadays.
however, he is liable to find himself
aroused in the middle of the night to
hasten to the wireless room and there
listen to symptoms through the ether
to which he must give his best advice.
Now that the wireless telephone has
passed the experimental stage, it is
expected that the ship surgeons will
be called upon even more extensively
that heretofore.
Gives Aid 100 Miles Away.
Through the wireless telephone the
ship surgeon, DR.. Roy B. Henline, was
told one night to give specific direc-
tions to a sick captain of a freighter
800 miles away. Over the wireless
telephone DIR. Henline asked for the
symptoms and. being informed, dag
nosed the case to be one of ptomaine
poison. He prescribed remedies nor
mally carried in the medicine chest
of all small vessels. In the morning
he was greeted with a wireless mes
sage Of thanks from the patient, who
stated that the remedies prescribed
had relieved his trouble.
Among the surgeons of the United
States lines fleet is one who is a
pioneer in wireless surgery. This is
DIR. William S. Irwin, surgeon on the
steamship Centennial Safe. which
plies between New York and London.
About nine years ago DR.. Irwin,
then serving on a vessel plying be-
tween New York and Central Ameri-
can ports, was summoned to the wire
less room one day and informed that
the keeper of lighthouse on a lone
ly island in the Caribbean was suf-
fering as a result of an injury to his
leg, and that immediate medical at
tention was necessary. The island had
f1ve persons as its population. these
being the lighthouse tender. his wife.

workmen, one of whom acted as cook.
DIR. Irwin asked for a complete his
tory of the case, and across 500 miles

of sea the details were given him
in dots and dashes. The lighthouse
keeper had fallen, broken a leg. ana
gangrene had developed. From the
facts provided him DIR. Irwin came to
the conclusion that an immediate am
putation was necessary to save the lie
of the sufferer. 1t was out OF the ques-
tion for the ship to get to the island,
for the surgeon well. realized that
the time consumed would be too
great. He inquired whether or not the
others on the island would be willing
provided he gave them specific di-
rections. Receiving an answer in the
affirmative. DIR. Irwin detailed
through the ether the process neces-
sary for the taking Off of the in
jured mans limb.
Cook Removes Mans Leg.
The surgical portion of the opera
ton was performed by the cook, using
as his instruments a butcher knife
and a kitchen saw. Inasmuch as no
anesthetics were available, the in
jured man had to grin and bear 1t, but
tainted before the operation was con-
cluded. During the next two or three
days DR.. Irwin received wireless COM
munications regarding the state of
the patient and found that he was
doing well, having a robust constitu-

and that was on the arrival day of
the steamship Centennial State in the
port of New York. A message that
came from the pier informed DR.. Ir-
win that a gentleman with one leg
reached the pier the one-legged man

Then followed rehashing of the
historic case.
Helps Twelve Poisoned Men.
The development of wireless has
great enhanced the responsibilities
of the ship surgeon. DR.. Michael Re-
bert of the steamship Lone Star
State, upon its recent arrival in New
York. announced that he was going
to sleep for two days consecutively
as a result of the number of night
calls to which he had been subjected
through wireless applications for aid
from passing freighters. Late one
night the doctor was aroused by the
wireless operator, who informed him
that twelve members of the crew of a
Norwegian freighter were in terrible
agony and desired medical attention.
DR.. Robert inquired as to the history
of the ailment and found that the
crew had partaken quite forcibly of

at Quantico in May.

Members of the rifle team to repre-
sent the United States at the inter-
national rifle matches to be held at
Rome. Italy, in June will be selected
at open competitive matches to be
held at the rifle range at the marine
station at Quantico. Va, during the
first week of May. Candidates for the
competition will be chosen from the
Army. Navy. Marine Corps, National
Guard and civic life. AS there are no
federal funds available, competitors
will have to bear their own expenses.
The course of fire in the try-outs
will be thirty shots standing, twenty
shots kneeling. and ten shots prone
at 800 yards. Candidates will be per-
mitted to use any rifle. any ammuni-
tion and any sight not containing
glass, they desire. Selection of can
didates will be made as a result of
the best scores made at the final

HOlD-UP MEN FOILED.
Proprietor of Local Inn Fires at
Bandits. Who Flee.

Three timid highwaymen attempted a,
holdup last night and failed. The vic
tim-intended-wa too quick for them.
Edward II. Story, proprietor of Suntoag
Inn. on the Washington Mount Vernon
boulevard near Adams Heights, about
fives mile south of Washington, was re-
turning from this city about midnight
in an automobile. when. as he neared
his home, he found an automobile park
ed across the road to block him.
He grabbed his revolver. Three men
stood before him. One demanded his
money and fired a shot, which passed
uncomfortably close to his head and on
through the top of the car. Story aimed
and fired. One man dropped. His COM
panions bundled him into their machine
and sped away. Story, on arriving home,
phoned Detective Fred NJ. Cornweil.
night chief of detectives. and told him
of the occurrence. stating his belief that
one of the men was wounded. Police
are searching for the supposedly wound
ed man and his companions.

CONTINUOUS OR UNDAMPED
OSCILLATIONS.

The word Oscillations is used when
very high frequency alternating cur
rent is thought of in radio work. I'm
damped oscillations are then oscilla-
tions which have no damping, but
whose amplitudes are continuous so
LONG as the current flows. In the
case of a swinging pendulum, the
swings can be kept of continuous am
plitude-that is, always of the same
amplitude so long as the taps applied
are all of the same force and are ap-
piled once for each swing in each di-
rection. Likewise, the undamped
electrical oscillations must be the re-
suit of regularly applied electrical
force. Otherwise. some of the energy
in the circuit will be lost in overcom-
ing resistance each alienation and none
viii be provided to replace it.
Continuous oscillations are absolute
lyl necessary in radiotelephony for sat
isfactory transmission. They may
also. of course. be used for radioteleg-
raphy. When these undamped os-
citations flow in a suitable circuit,
such as an antenna. they create waves
in. the invisible medium known as
''ether." And since the oscillations
are undamped. the ether vibrations

A NOVEL GRID LEAK RESISTANCE.

A NOVEL GRID LEAK RESISTANCE.
There are number of fixed grid
leak resistances available to the radio
constructor. They take all shapes.
and are of practically all sizes. The
one illustrated appears to have some
very good features, and is, at, any
rate. novel in construction.
The resistance unit itself is a film
of pure platinum or an alloy of plati
mum and gold chemically deposited
upon strip of clear mica. The
length. width and thickness of the
film determine the resistance. which
is constant for fixed resistance unit.
The units are assembled for panel
mounting or for rough handling, as
in an experimental laboratory. If for
panel mounting. where it will be free
from injury, the metallic deposit is
protected by second sheet of mica.
If the unit will meet with rough
usage, it may be procured assembled
inside brass protecting case.
