same width and depth.
The primary of the transformer
consists of tyenty-seven feet OF num-
Der forty enamel wire wound IN one
of the grooves provided for the pur-
pose in the fibre cylinder, while the
secondary is made up of forty nine
feet of number forty enamel WIRE
wound in the other groove. Great
care should be exercised IN making
the length of the wire exactly as
specified above in order to insure the
proper functioning of the trans
former.
The range of wave lengths on
which this transformer will function
is from $50 meters to about 4OO
meters.
A very important feature IN con-
nection with the use of this trans
former for radio frequency amplltlca-
ton is the potention meter shunted
across the filamment battery to the
center tap of which the rid circuit
is connected. The critical adjustment
of this potentiometer is important IN
adjusting the potential OF the GRID
to value just below the osclllating
point, at which the circuit functions
IN a manner giving the maximum am
plification.
The results obtainable with this
comparatively simple transformer
will repay the time and labor spent
in its construction. The small size
wire used requires that care be eX-
ercised in handling to prevent break
age and re-winding.
Radio frequency amplification per
mits the use of coil or loop aerlals
and gives strong enough signals
when employed in connection with an
audio frequency amplifier to operate
satisfactorily a loud speaking device,
although the received energy in 1t
self would probably be too weak to

TALE OF WOUNDED GOATS

IN THE LATE STONE AGE, a
number of animals besides the dog
and horse were captured and tanned
by man. Among these were sheep
and goats. Let us weave tale OF
how goats were first brought under
human care.
We shall suppose chat one day a
band of hunters in Switzerland came
upon a herd of about a dozen wild
goats. They fired arrow after ar
row into the group and brought
down quite a number. Each man
picked up one Of the animals to
carry back to the hut village.
The head man of the tribe--the
the chief-happened to be one OF
this band of hunters. Of a sudden,
the goat he held under his arms be-
gan to squirm. The chief looked
down and saw that it was still alive
having been only wounded by the
arrow which had sunk into its body.
The old hunters first thought was
to kill the animal with his dagger,
but he paused.
An unusual luea croSseu No VI an
He had often wished that the
game supply could be more steady.
Some days his tribe had more meat
than could be eaten AT other times
hunting was poor, GnG the tribes
had to go hungry.
The chief now thought he had a
chance to avoid this He would keep
the goat alive for a while and Kill II
when the game supply ran short!
At this moment another hunter
cried:
"My goat isn't dead yet! I'll have
to kill the little rascal over again
"Wait a Bit" shouted the chief.
"My goat is alive, too. Well keep
both of them at the village until a

It is a well known fact that when
the limit of several stages Of audio
frequency amplification has been
reached it is necessary to insert one
or more stages of radio frequency
ampiification before the detector tube
in order to hear signals from the
more distant transmitting stations.

day when we get nothing on our
huting trip"
The animals were tied to trees
with ropes made from strips of
skins, and they grazed on the
grass which grew in and around the
village. They became fat and tame.
One of the goats was a female,
and someone learnec that it would
give milk which was good to drink.
The tribesmen decided they would
like to have more goats. Pits were
dug in mountain places, where the
beasts were likely to walk and fall
in. They could then be tied around
the neck and pulled TO the village
though that might not always be an
easy or a pleasant job. Wild goats
must have known great deal about
butting.

Mr. Rockefeller does not permit the city OF
New York TO guess that he has more than
SZUUOOOO worth of personal property. When
one considers that % per cent. of whatever he
owns Is that kind Of property-but that is
other story. The only other two IN all New York
who belong in the 100000 class are Mrs.
Adelaide c. Prick and her daughter Miss Helen
c. Prick, who share equally with Rockefeller the
honors of the leadership in the metropolitan record.
Now compare this with the S6,5OO,OOO that
Mrs. Penheld has against her name in Philadel-
phia, and one sees how far beyond her rich neigh
bors the social leader Of the Quaker City goes.
Mrs. Penfeld inherited the Weightman millions.
and is one Of the wealthiest women in the world.
Her husband was Ambassador TO Austria when
the war came along, and she earned a wide fame
by her works of mercy and charity in Vienna.
She has a fine summer place on the St. Law
