not yet ready for application to short
wave music reception.
O. We are situated among mountain
ranges Would that be liable to inter
fcre with the reception of radio CON
certs? A.--That would depend upo>
several factors, and not knowing them
J can hardly inform you. 1t would de-
pend upon the general direction Of the
mountain ranges as regards yourself
and the broadcasting station and also
tho height of the ranges and their
proximity to your house. The nature
Of the ground where your house is built
would also enter into this. The easiest
way to obtain an answer TO that qucs-
ton is TO install the set you have de-
scribcd and try it out
r. De NJ, Philadelphia:
o. have a radio set consisting of
loose coupler, crystal detcctor, CON
derscr and 1900 ohm phones. Could
you tell me what would I need to hear
Pittsburgh and Newark?
A.-The maximum distance under
best conditions for radiophonc music
with a crystal detcctor is fifty miles.
To receive Pittsburg you will require a
rcgencrativc receiver and a vacuum
tube detector at least.
Q.What is a loading coil and what
is it used for?
A loading coil is necessary to
use with your set when you desire to
listen in to A station using a longer
wave length than the range of your
apparatus will allow. The size Of the
loading coil Will depend upon the pres
ent apparatus and the wavelcngth of
the station you want to get.
J. S., New York City:
Q.-Is tuner used to get the right
wave length Of station?
A.--Yes. 1t puts your receiving ap-
paratus in syntony with the trans

Ncv Rccordcv for Radio Time
Signals Devised bN U. S.

A new automatic machine for re
cording wireless telegraph signals re-
ccived over great distances has been
completed by DR.. L. A. Eckhard and DR.
!. C. Karchcr, of the Bureau Of Stand
ards, in Washington. The new instru
mcnt is constructed on different prin-
ciplc from the cumbersome apparatus
whicl, has been in use. The device has
been demonstrated by recording The
ticks Of chronometer and the Naval
Observatory time signals from Annap-
ellis simultaneously with the same re-
cording pen.
A chronographic recording drum
pushes the paper past the chronograph
pen at uniform rate Of speed, and
the signals ere recorded as humps Of
the line, short humps for dots aud
Longer ones for dashcs. BY winding
the actuatinG magnets in different di-
rections it is possible to record stimuli
taneously rhc seconds of local time as
furnished by chronomcter and COM
pare them with standard wireless OBJ
servatory time without the errors Of
"lag" of the instruments.
The machine WAS perfected in order
to replace The present wire telegraphc c

short waves too, provided the tight
coils are used in the mounts.
Can Use Lighting System
f. A. NJ, Ashland, n. Y:
Q.-~ln what manner can | take Guy
rent from our 32-volt lighting system
for audion bulbs? A.-This system
can be used provided a suitable
resistance is placed in series in one
Of the leads from the system to the
vacuum tube. If you arc using only
one vacuum tube you will need re-
sistance of 80 ohms, capable of carry
ing the main current. If you are using
two vacuum tubes the resistance will
have TO be 16 ohms. You will find,
when the engine is runnin. to turn the
charging dynamo, that your receiving
set will reproduce the "ripplcs" from
the dynamo, but it will be all right at
other times.
Q.-ls a single wire aerial better
than short two-wirc aerial? A.-Yes.
For music reception from the present
Dfoadcastlng stations which use short
waves the sin"lc wire aerial should be
as near total length Of 1875 feet as
possible.
i. d. c., Middlctown, n. y:
Q.-How does radio frequency am
plification work, and is it practical on
short wave circuits A-Radio fire.
qucncy amplification means the build
ing up or amplifying of wireless cur
rents sitter they are picked up by the
aerial circuit. This amplification takes
place before the currents are passed
through the detector tube. | do not
think that it could be positively as
serted that radio amplfcation has
been satisfactorily applied to short

The diagram above shows the most
efficient connections for the crystal de-
tector the simplest circuit by which
radiophone cincerts can be received.
These sets, however, will only receive
music on the average twenty-five miles
from the broadcas sting station, although
in some cases they will respond to
music more than fifty miles. For radio
telegraph signals the crystal detector
is very sensitive indeed, and will re-
ceive messages over large distances
provided the aerial is free, clear and
high.

full confidence of the nonplayer
would be unbeatable. Fortunately
such an attitude of mind Is beyond
the scope of human natupe.
1t was not. however. beyond the
scope of Vincent Jopp, the super
man. Vincent Jopp was. l am in
clined to think. the only golfer who
ever approached the game In a
spirit of pure reason. l have read
of men who. never having swum In
their lives. studied a textbook on
their way down to the swimming
bath. mastered its contents and
dived in and won the big race.
In just such a spirit did Vincent
Jopp start to play golf. He COM
mitted McHoots' hints to memory
and then went out on the links and
put them into practice. He came to
the tee with a clear picture in his
mind of what he had to do, and he
did 1t. He was not intimidated. like
the average novice, by the thought
that II he pulled in his hands he
would slice. or II he gripped too
tightly with the right he would
pull. Pulling in the hands was an
error. so he did not pull in his
hands. Gripping too tightly was a
defect. so he did not grip too
tightly. With that weird concen-
tration which had served him so
well in business he did precisely
what he had set out to do-no less
and no more. Gof with Vincent
Jopp was an exact science.
The annals of the game are
studded with the names OF those
who have made rapid progress in
their FIRST season. Col. Quill. we
read in our Vardon, took up golf at
the age of Sc. and by devislng an
ingenious machine consisting OF a
fishing line and a sawn-down bed
post was enabled to keep his head
so still that he became a scratch
player before the end OF the year.
But no one. imagine, except Vim
cent Jopp. has ever achieved
scratch on his first morning on the
links.
The main difference. we are told.
between the amateur and the pro-
fessional golfer is the fact that the
latter is always aiming at the pin.
while the former has in his mind a
vagne picture OF getting somewhere
reasonably near il. Vincent Jopp
invariably went for the pin. He
tried to hole out from anywhere in
side 220 yards. The only occasion
on which 1 ever heard him express
any lchagrin or disappointment was
during the afternoon round of his
first day out. when from the tee on
the 2SO-yard seventh he laid his
ball within six inches of the hole.

you had after we met; how / penned
