PERPETUAL MOTION

THROUGH RADIO AID
Skeptics Are Weakening IN
Their Doubts About Law
of Friction.

Perpetual motion has been classffieS
as among the things theoretically nm
possible for centuries. Experimentess
by the hundreds of thousands have
devoted a good part of their lives tEf&
ing to disprove this theory-most Y
them no doubt with visions of a golden
rain. Most novel and ingenious
schemes have been devised and mod
els built, some of them involving the
work of a lifetime, only to be brought
up short against the law that a ma
chine will not u with its own mo-
mentum alone. Many of the machines
have seemed to come SO near to the
dream of the inventor that it has
needed but the smallest unit of power
to throw the balance in the direction
of success. B

would have described radio as it func-

Four turns of copper wire, strung
around a room Of about 10 feet square.
Any scrap copper will do, provided the
ends are carefully scraped bright when
spliced. If new wire is purchased, a
one pound spool OF No. 20, bare or
enameled, will be enought for the whole
outfit. For mounting the wire, screw
a small iron angle to the top of the
~cornice In four places in a as

each of these angles then screw a piece
of 1x2 inch wood, vertically. This
gives four supports for the wire with

Singing from Singer;

vary from period to period. In the
past much emphasis was placed upon
pure vocalization, bel canto, the per-
feet, ever production of each note.
This method sometimes developed into
pure vocal gymnastics. 1t might al
most be said that at this period the
singer sang too much; he did not pay
enough attention to diction and decla-
nation.
Now, on the contrary, with the in
PRODUCTION of a new type of music less
rich in opportunity for vocal fire
works, the singer might be accused of
placing too much emphasis on decla-
nation. He does not sing enough. A
happy medium between these two ex-
tremes is the ideal achievement. 1t
is not enough for a singer to be mere
ly a v~irtuosos. He must, in addition,
be an artist"

mounting is that of the parlor lamp
