of this combination. Two of the last

battery in the grid circuit is called
the &C" battery.
As a start let us suppose that "C''

ton of the three-electrode tube would
the be exactly like that of a two-elec-
trode tube, just as though there we're

incandescence by the "a" battery a
steady stream of electrons will be CIV

the plate f. Plate e is maintained
at a positive potential with respect
TO the flament by the "B" battery.
Now if the grid is made positive
with respect to the flament. it is pos
sible to accelerate the flow of the cleo
iron stream from the filament to the
plate; If the grid Is made negative
with respect to the flament, the flow
of the electron stream from the fila
ment to the plate will be retarded.
Or in other words, by making the grid
positive or negative with respect to
the filament, it is possible to increase
or counterfeit the space charge. The
third electrode or grid thus offers Il

better than other forms of rectifiers
then In use and, owing to the greater
ruggedness and ease of manipulation
of the latter, did not ONE into gener-
al use as u detector.
DIR. Lee DeForest, an American,
greatly improved the Fleming valve
by adding a third electrode called the
grid, which served the function of a
control element and thus made 1t pos

local currents. The three-electrode
vacuum tube Of DeForest is the tube
used 50 extensively today.
The third element which is called a
grid and from which the three-elec-
trode vacuum tube derives its name
was placed by DeForest between the
filament and the plate in the path of
the electrons. The grid is a perfor-
ated plate or mesh of fine wire through
the openings of which the electrons
must pass In their journey from the
nlament to the plate.

doubt the community of which it was

of its popularity. The note read:

Willow Lakes Bank
Robbed Of Cash and Bonds

Willow Lakes, Sept. 20.-The Farm
crs & Merchants bank of this place
was broken into sometime last night
and the safety deposit boxes in the
vault robbed of several thousands of
dollars worth Of coupon bonds, War
Savings Stamps and other valuable
papers.
The men forced an entrance
through the real door, and then with
crow bars cut a hole about 30x24 in
ches through the two-foot thick brick
wall of the vault. There they pried
open every safety deposit box and
riied them Of their contents.
The cashiers drawer, in which was
kept a small amount Of silver for
change before the time safe is opened
in the morning, was rifled of about
500 in silver, but a roll of 5000 III
bills which had been brought in last
night after the vault was locked, was
overlooked by the thieves.
There is absolutely no information
as to what time the robbery took place
as non one heard the men at work,
nor were any suspicious characters
seen about the town last night.
The full amount of the loss will
not be known until every safety de-
post box renter has been checked up,
which may not be for several days
yet.
The robbery was not d~iscovefed
until Assistant Cashier Leo Fites
opened the bank this morning at 700

Apple Tree Blossoms
