SCAT, WITH THE RUMORS

Rumors have reached Wapella Tribe
that Mayor COPYRIGHT Smith did not
take part in the Halloween parade
given by this Tribe, and we would like
it to become publicly known that sucn
rumor is absolutely false, as Mayor
Smith led the parade and rendered all
the aid he possibly could. 1t seems
some persons are attempting to create
an ill feeling between this Tribe and
the Mayor, but we wish to assure
these gossipers the relations between
us and the Mayor are of the best and
Mayor Smith has at all times rendered
us any and all favors asked of him,
and we feel sure these relations will
continue to exist as the Tribe will be
willing at all times to be as pro-
gressive as our Mayor and assist him
in making Wildwood the garden spot
of the world.

LANING WINS ELECTION BET

AS a result of the recent state cleo
ton, Samuel A. Laning, chairman Of
the Democratic Committee for Cape

to the extent of two pairs Of new
shoes The victim or loser of the bet,
according to Mr.. Laning, is that stall
wart Republican, Henry G. Dunlap, Of
Philadelphia and Wildwood Crest. Mr..
Laning states that he received In
structions from Mr.. Dunlap a few days
ago to procure the two pairs of Ban
mister shoes at once, and mail the bill
to the president of the Dunlap Print
ing Co., Philadelphia, upon receipt of
which a check will be Forthcoming.
1t is impossible for Mr.. Laning to
conceal, if he wanted to, the great
of delight he experiences in
this Democratic bareback or reversal
of Republican majorities; and ne
chuckles with glee as he remarks:

UNI tube Of today marked a very i'm
portant step in the progress Of the
radio art. The Fleming valve, how
ever, in It's original form was not much
better than other forms of rectifiers
then in use and, owing to the greater
ruggedness and ease Of manipulation
OF the latter, did not come into gener-
al use as a detector. 4 n 1
! DR.. Lee DeForest, an American,
greatly improved the Fleming valve
by adding third electrode called the
grid, which served the function Of a
control element and thus made it pos
sible to utilize the feeble incoming sig
nal currents to control more powerful
local currents. The three-electrOde
vacuum tube Of DeForest is. the tube
used so extensively today. &. 4. ...,s:.
The third element which is called q
grid and from which the three-elec.
trode vacuum tube derives it's name
was placed by DeForest between the
filament and the plate in the path of
the electrons. The grid is perfor-
ated plate or mesh Of fine wire through
the openings Of which the electrons
must pass in their Journey from the
flament to the plate.
