ers are beginning only now to realize
the truth Of the fact that they cannot
afford to carry large and heterogene-
Gus lot of odds and ends in radio ap-
paratus in the hopes that they will be
able to dispose of it. They are learn
ing now, by stern process, that hys-
terical Overstocking Of apparatus in an
effort to meet the spasmOdlc demand
of radio 'faddists' is not going to prove
profitable in the long run. They are
beginning to realize that dependable
apparatus, bought to meet the varying
radio conditions, is more to be relied
upon than unknown apparatus that
looks good in the catalogue. and Is
merely an ornament upon the shelves.
Manufacturers, too, are learning
their lesson from this slump. They
are realizing that the time Of order
taking is past and that the time Of
order getting Is here. They are learn
ing now, II they didn't know 1t before,
that In order to sell radio apparatus,
they must give good value, serviceable
merchandise, attractive prices and real
service and dealer cooperation"

plate circuit. The limit is reached
when the plate current reaches the
.saturation point. After this point is
reached, further weakening of the
coupling cannot increase the plate cur
rent variations so that the transfer of
energy from the plate to grid circuit
now decreases, and any further reduc-
ton in coupling will cause such a re-
sduction in excitatlon that finally the
tube will cease to function.
There is, then, a certain degree Of
coupling at which the tube will start
to oscillate, a. certain degree Of cou-
pling which will produce maximum os-
'cillation in the plate circuit and an
other degree Of coupling at which the
tube will cease to oscillate.
From the foregoing short discussion
1T Gun be seen that q three electrode
vacuum tube can be made to function
as self excited generator of an I'M
,damped alternating difference of po-
tential at radio frequency, or by excit-
Ing the tube externally by, for exam
pie, an incoming radio signal. the

potential can be fed back into the grid
and held to further increase the ampli-
tude Of the plate circuit variations. III

ment.
The ingredients are one-half cup

one heaping teaspoon ground CHINA

one-half cup chopped walnut meats,
two cups flour, one level teaspoon
baking soda; one heaping teaspoon

cups of bran, one egg snd one-h :! =

then add the other ingredients and
mix thoroughly. Drop by teaspoon

COUPLING CONTROLS
THE OSCILLATIONS
How the Vacuum Tube Radio
Receiver Can Be Made
y Regenerative.

If 1t were not for the bends In the
characteristic curve the three-elec-
trode vacuum tube could not be made
to produce oscillations Of constant am
plitude when self excited. 1t is easily
seen that If the characteristic curve
were a straight line, the operation Of
the tube would be SO unstable as to
render the tube useless as an oscilln-
ton generator. A third condition Of
relative values Of potential variations
can exist, that Is, when the grid cir
cult potential variations are less than
the potential variations existing in the
tuned circuit between the points X and
Y. When this condition exists, the
oscillations In the tuned circuit cannot
be maintained but the decrease in am
plltude in the tuned circuit oscillations
will reduce the grid excltatlon, and the
tube will finally cease to oscillate.
T Thus f the Coupling That Exists be-
tween the plate circuit through the
tuned circuit inductance l. and the
grid circuit through the inductance l.
