Of the War Department to have an
equal distribution of students from
all over New England at the train
ing camp. Each county in New
England has been given its quota
AS soon as the quota for a county
has been filled and an additional
number Of applications have been
received from that county sufficient
to supply alternates for unforeseen
destinations and reflections, recruit
ing in that county will be closed,
Young men who apply for the
training camp may withdraw their
applications if unforeseen circum-
stances arise making attendance
mpracticable. All expenses are
paid by the Government while at
the camp. No additional military
obligation is incurred by attend
ance. Apply to your County chair
man, Arthur F. Stone, of the Mill
tary Training Camps Association
for application blanks and full in
formation.
Applications for the Citizens
Military Training Camp should be
submitted at once as the quotas for
all counties in New England are
being rapidly filled.

Nature Loves Bright

We see the truth of this state
ment in the varicolored flowers,
the vivid sunsets, the birds Of bril-
liant plumage. But we never see
it exemplified more attractively
than in the person Of a splendidly
healthy woman. How does nature
paint this health? Why, in the rosy
cheeks, the transparent skin, the
smooth red lips of such a woman.
And she molds it in firm flesh and
rounded contours. The ailing Wo-
man is deficient in natural color

to advantage in clothes that would

Many women who long for glow

XIV. lNDUcTANCEs AND TUNING COILS

In order to receive and hear sounds
sent from transmitting stations by
radiophones clearly and without inter-
ference or confusion, device Of some
sort is required which will cut out all
waves save those desired. This is
known as tuning and the instruments
or appliances used to accomplish it
are called tuners" There are now
a great many different devices for
tuning, such as tuning-coils, loose
couplers, vario-couplers, variometers,
variable condensers, etc. OF these,
all but the variable condensers (Which
see) are coils of various types, the
simplest, but by no means the most
efficient, being the simple tuning coils.
These consist of coil Of bare wire
wound about core or cylinder Of
wood, fibre or, pasteboard and pro-
vided with sliding contacts as shown
in Fig. 80, in which A is the coil, B,
the slide rod and G, the slider.
BY moving the slider from coil to
coil Of the wire the wave length of
the receiving instruments may be ad-
justeG to catch the desired sounds
of that wave length. Such coils are
very easily made by winding paste
board tube-which should be soaked
in melted paraffine to render it water
proof-with bare copper wire about
No. 49,, making about 40 turns and
leaving space Of about 1-16 inch be-
tween the turns. If two or more sliders
or contacts are arranged still finer
adjustment will be attainable while,
by providing rotary switches with five
contacts as shown in Fig. 81, still bet
ter results will be secured. Although,
as stated, these coils are easily made,
yet they are so cheap that many pre-
fer to purchase them ready made rather
than bother making them. Simple
coils or inductances, however, are even
simpler, as they consist merely of
q few turns Of insulated copper wire
wound on pasteboard tube, the; num-
ber Of turns depending upon the wave
lengths to be received. In some sets
there is but one coil or helix Fig. 81,

BLABON ELEVATOR STRUCK
BY LIGHTNING SUNDAY
HOPE CITIZENS CALLED ON FOR
ASSISTANCE in Keeping
su..AMHls UNDER CONTROL

During the rain storm Sunday
morning the Monarch elevator at
Blabon was struck by lightning and
burned to the ground. Shortly after
10 O'Clock message was sent to
Hope asking for assistance in fight
ing the fire. The citizens of Blabon
were all working as hard as possible
10 keep the flames from spreading
to- the other elevators and buildings
and the task was a hard one.
When the request was received in
Hope Il number OF auto loads OF men
started out ut once while others
loaded the chemical engine in C. H.
llanSon's truck and were soon at the
scat OF action and giving valuable
assistance. A slight change in the
direction of the wind and hard work
with fire eNtinguishers and bucket
brigades kept the fire from spread
ing.
About seven thousand bushels of
grain were in the elevator and the
salvage from this will amount to only
several hundred dollars. The ques-
tion Of rebuilding the elevator has
not been decided at the present time.
II. A. Burner was manager of the
elevator.

while in other sets there are two, a
primary and secondary Fig 33, and
as rule the coil should be tapped
and the circuit connected at the tap
off Fig. 81. This is best done by TAX
ing a loop or twist in the wire at the
desired point and then continuing
winding as Fig. 35. OF course, in max
ing the connection at this tap-off the
wire should be scruped free Of insula-
tion to make the joint, after which it
should be wrapped with adhesive tape.
In making these simple inductance
coils 1t Is best to put on more turns
Of wire than you think is actually re.
quired, as it is far easier to remove
one turn at time, until the desired
wave length is obtained, than 1t is
to add turns after the instruments are
set up. Similar simple coils are used
in many parts Of receiving sets, such
as the radio-choke in Fig. SO, L, etc.
BY making several tap-offs and then
leading them to the various contacts
Of multiple-point switch, Fig. 36.
G, excellent results may be obtained
especially with the smaller crystal sets
with single simple coil. Another way
by which waves of varying lengths
may be received by means of simple
coils without tuning devices, is to have
several coils of various sizes so ar
ranged that they may be connected or
disconnected with your set at WILL
This may be done, either by means
Of plugs and sockets as in Fig. SO,
A, or by switches with several con-
facts as shown in Fig. SO, B. Still
finer adjustment may be obtained by
providing each coil with slider or
similar tuning device. This will give
wide range of wave lengths and will
obviate all need Of taking turns off the
coils and as such coils are very easy
to make you can have as many as you
desire of different sizes.
Another very different type of in
ductance- coil consists of two windings,
known as primary and secondary, and
are similar to the ordinary sparkling
coils used in older type automobiles.

IMPORTANT CHANGES
have BEEN MADE
VOCATIO NAL AGRICULTURAL
COURSE OUTLINED FOR
COMING YEAR

1t is the purpose of the Vocation
al Agricultural Department of the
Hope High School to offer rs many
courses as possible in Agriculture
and Shopwork this year for those
that are qualified to take the work.
The Department offers this year a
practical High School Education to
boys and girls who do not have an
opportunity to complete the work be-
yond the eighth grade in their own
communities. 1t is also our pur-
pose to train teachers for rural
schools who can fit into rural condi-
tions and see things from the coun-
try point of view instead of from the
city viewpoint. There is a greater
demand for these teachers at the
present time. The teacher training
students have an opportunity of
broadening their experiences while
taking the agricultural course.
Wheat grading and milk testing is
required by state law to be taught in
all schools in No. Oak.
We expect to offer again special
four and one-half months Winter
Short Course in Agriculture and
Shopwork for those who cannot be
spared from the farm for lnger than
the winter months. The winter
courses will begging Nov 9Th. and end
March 18th. This course and the
regular course is purposely outlined
for those who are not qualified to
enter High School because of failure
= to complete the eighth grade. The
only restriction of the admittance to
the Smith-Hughes classes is that
every student must have reached the
age of 16 or must show that he can
carry the work with proficiency.
Those who are qualified to enter the
High School may take the work with
out any regard to the age restriction.
The Hope pioneer., 1922-08-24

Thus the Vocational Agricultural
courses are open to anyone caring
to take the work. Actual attend
ance at the agricultural classes is
only required of students not enroll
ed in the High School.
There may be possibility of offer
ing this year special one and two
week Short Courses in Agriculture
and Shopwork on practical subjects
for all people in the county. This
will be for the colder Farm Boys"
and will not include anyone taking
work in High School. OF course, it
is the purpose of this department
to aid in all ways possible in the i'm
provement and development of better
rural and civic conditions. Questions
will be gladly answered and informa-
tion given when desired.
The following complete Smith
AAu6iACo vi SOSdI1oudl A6tlCulIuIdl
Course will be offered in the Hope
High School. This course when COM
pleted will entitle you to the same
standard diploma as offered TO any
one on the completion of the regu-
lar work in the High School, and
which is acceptable at our Agricul-
tural College, State University, and
other Agricultural colleges for en-
trance requirements.
The first two years of the general
course will be offered this coming
year (1922'23). Project work is
required in each years work and ii
of sufficient size and properly taken
care of, an extra One-half unit is
granted. Look the course over care
fully and note what is required. TIL:
course is complete and includes all
the High School subjects (Which are
called Non-Vocational subjects) ne
cessary for graduation. A full ex
planation of what will be offered il
the Second Year of the course will
be given in later issue of the Pho
neer. The following course as out
lined has been approved by the Stat,
Supervisor, Mr.. E. H. Jones and Il
required to be taught in all schools
