THE SIMPLE VACUUM TUBE

Lesson No. Z


There are three common ways IN
which radio frequency currents of
constant amplitude may be genera
ted: First, by means of the radio
frequency alternator, second, by
means of the oscillating arc, and
third, by utilization of the property
of vacuum tube which causes it
to act as a generator of radio fire.
quency currents. The vacuum tube
is the most flexible of the methods
named and is the only method appli-
cable to very high frequencies that
is, very short wave lengths
In any regenerative receiving sys-
tenn if the coupling between the
plate and grid circuits is continu-
ously increased the voltage fed back
to the grid circuit will become great
er than that required to just sus-
tain oscillations in the circuit. The
oscillations will be continuously
built up in amplitude until a limit.
determined by the characteristics OF
the tube and circuit, is reached. The
tube thus becomes a generator OF
alternating current of frequency

Looks the Part

Ralph Bingham, to appear soon
at the Chautauqua, not only is
funny, but he LOOKS the part. He
describes himself as Cooking like
a bureau with the middle drawer
pulled our."
He is one Of those rare creatures
who can laugh at his own jokes as
heartily as the audience without
detracting in the least from the
desire of the audience to join in
the uproar. Their keen enjoyment
of the entire program is evident
every minute, and the program is
clean and wholesome throughout.
I'm addition to being a humorist
of the first order, Bingham is an
artist of no small ability on the
piano and violin, both of which he
plays with great expression and
uses as allies to his powers of get
ting a laugh from the audience. In
short, it seems that everything he
sees has a humorous turn to it, and
is possessed Of possibilities to get
at least a smoker. Then, when he
interprets it in his particularly
comical way, it becomes almost
side-splitting.
His program is divided into sew
eral classes of humor which he
enumerates as accumUlative humor,
which includes the pianologue and
the monologue, character sketches
and dialect humor.
In the first mentioned the name
fitted the type, for he starts with
practically nothing and rolls up a
veritable SNOWFALL of jokes and
puns that make laughter more
frequent as he progresses.
Before the close of the pro-
gram he makes a short, serious
discourse to the audience on
Americanism that is surprising in
its eloquence after such spasms of
laughter. He asks that everybody
talk and think disarmament and
peace and that we join the cam
paign to stamp out bolshevism and
radicalism. He then calls his
auditors out of their trance and
gives them a clever dialect story
for a parting shot and leaves the
stage in burst of applause.

Standard practice is to rate vac

conditions of plate voltage and fila

in watt, so watt, and $50 watt

Recent transatlantic tests devel-
oped the fact that signals from a
transmitter employing a single 5
watt tube could be heard over dis
tances Of several Thousand miles

ate made 2,057 amendments. This
is the "wise and beneficial leglsla-
ton" which is condemned by every
great Republican newspaper in the
United States, by every great lndeI
pendent newspaper in the United
States, by the leading farm jour,
nails of the country, by the financial
and commercial press, by the great
financial and commercial interests,
and endorsed only by the big man
ufcturing interests to whom 1t
grants special privileges at the eX-
pense of every other interest.
Mr.. Mondell's boast of Republican
economy in reduction of expendl-
lures finds its best answer in
statement by Representative Byrns
dem. Tenn chat the Presidents
budget estimates for the fiscal year
1923 were $2O0,000,00O more than
the regular annual appropriations
for 1922, and that this Congress has
appropriated for 1923 over S74,OOO,-
coo more than was appropriated IN
the regular supply bills for l922."
Continuing his statement Repre-
sentative Byrns says: Representa-
tive Mondell refers to a reduction
of estimates of the Democratic ad-
ministration by a Republican Con-
gress for the year 1921 in the sum
of 1910. 100000 Why was ne not
sufficiently frank and candid with
the people to say that this same Re
publican Congress passed deficiency
appropriations during the year OF
over $4S2, 100000, thus restoring
the estimates to that extent? Why
did he not explain to the public that
the reduction was made possible By
heavy reduction of the army and
navy after the estimates were sub
mitted by the Democratic admins
tration, and not through the efforts
of a Republican Congress
Leader Mondell boasts of the
amendment to the Federal Reserve
Act providing for the appointment
of an agriculturist on the Federal
Reserve Board, but does not credit
this legislation to the Farm Bloc
bloc criticized and condemned by
President Harding.
He boasts of the excellent prog
ress made by the Department Of
Justice in the prosecution of war
frauds, but does not tell that the
only person tried and convicted so
far was a person who had accepted
a $500 brlbe.
Like Senator Mccormick, Rcpub-
lican floor leader Mondell claims
credit for all the legislation passed
with the aid Of Democratic votes
and about which there was no seri-
Gus contention, such as the Veter-
ans Bureau Act, disqualification,
Refunding Of Foreign Debt (amend-
ed into present shape by Demo
crats), Federal Highway act, Stock
men and Farmers War Finance act,
immigration Restriction, Packers
Control, etc In his list also he in
cludes bills passed by the House
which have no chance Of passing
the Senate. and among others
boasts of the passage of the Anti
Lynching bill, a bill plainly uncon-
stitutional on its face, and which
is designed only to fool the negro
votes.
The general opinion is. despite all
that Leader Mondell can say, that
the Republican Congress has been a
gigantic failure and that the failure
of the House is due largely to Mr..
Mondell's lack OF capacity and abil-
ity as its leader.

WHERE CAVE ARTIST COT
PAINT

Stone Age men knew nothing
about the alphabet, but they did
some writing just the same:
How was that?N you ask.
BY making pictures! The making
of pictures was crude kind OF
writing. Instead of writing IMAM
MOTH" a picture Of a mammoth was
drawn or painted. Instead of put
ting down the letters horse, a
picture Of horse was drawn. If
an artist wanted 10 tell what ami
mails had done, he tried to Put the
action in the picture. For instance,
one cave picture shows q bison flee
ing from a hunter.
What did the Cave artists use
for drawing? Charred sticks and
crayons.
The crayons were made from
ocher. Do you know what ocher is =?
1t is earth. II gets its color from
the mixing Of iron and clay in the
earth. Sometimes the ocher is REQ
sometimes 1t is yellow.
Much more important than the
drawings were the paintings. The
paint was made by mixing ocher
with oil squeezed from the fat of
animals. A substance called mang-
anese was also found in the eartn
and used in making paint The main
colors used were red, yellow, brown
and black.
1t is believed that little saucer
like stone holders, like the one pie
tured. were used in making the
paint. The ochers and the manga
nese were first crushed to bits. Then

the animal oil was poured in. A
small stone piece doubtless was
used for pressing the ocher into
powder.
After the paint was made, it was
sometimes placed in an oyster or
clam she'll. In other cases it was
put in paint tube like the one
shown. The paint tubes were made
from reindeer legbone.
