Work Hard While There Is Yet Time.
Six weeks more will bring the end of
this school year, and for many the end
of their high school career. Has your
high school life been of value to you?
Have you made the most of every oppor
tunity? Those who are now about to
graduate and leave this school and town
are now looking forward to a different
school. the world or college. Whichever
one we choose we must work. We are no
longer children when we leave high
school. We are young men and women
who must take care of ourselves.
In college we must study hard and
profit by it, for we owe it to our parents
who have spent their money in putting Us
through. If we prefer to go out into the
world in search of success we must stand
the hard knocks and work, for no sue
cess can be gained without work
Our high school life is the foundation
of this future success. We cannot expect
success if we have not made this founda
ton secure. Even these last few weeks
mean success or failure to some Let us
make one last strike and make these lew
weeks the most important of our whole
school year.
In five weeks examinations will begin,
These also, to many of us, mean much.
Let's begin to study now and not have
to cram the few days previous to them
1t is easy to shrink from work and study
now when the warm spring days are
calling you outside, but it viii be stiff
punishment to have to stay back next
year and watch your class go on. If
any of your marks are low now. bring
them up to passing, Don't be a gutter.
To be beaten now is to lose the first
firm hold on the success of your future
life. Just six weeks of hard fight and
YOU will overcome the first barrier in
your upward climb

the brass or bronze spring wire bent into
pigtail by winding it closely around a
finishing nail.
The crystal is nothing more than lead
sulphite, known under various names, as
galena, carbOrundrum, Silican, etc. The
success of your instrument depends
greatly upon the scnsitiveness of the de
teetor and for this reason it is well to
buy a good, tested crystal. The crystal
must be Clipped off Il bit, so that it has
a bright surface and gives a good con-

to mount it on the tuning coil base, you
may do so.

THE DETECTOR.
BY Frank 1. Solar.
Instructor of Manual Training
Detroit High Schools.

Sound waves, as they are caught by
the antenna, are not of a desirable
current and they must be changed. This
is done by the detector. Detectors may
be purchased, and 1 have shown two
types of ready made instruments in my
drawing, but for a very small sum you
can make one yourself
Every homemade detector is made in a
different way and of different materials
for there are only two essential points
to be kept in mind when constructing one.
First, there must be provided some mean
of holding the ''cat whisker" so it can be
