LINKING MOVIE AND RADIO
British Scientists Have Some Success
in Wireless Transmission of
Motion Pictures.

British scientists are reported to
have met with more or less success In
developing n method of transferring
motion pictures by radio. Some
months ago u photograph was trans
ferred by wireless from the Copen-
hagen newspaper, the Politiken, to Eng
land, and later from England to a ship
In mid Atlantic, so that the POSSIBLE
ity OF linking the movies with the new
art is not remote.
II perfected the new development of
the already versatile art will make 1t
possible for to see on his own re-
celvlng instrument things that are hap
penlng mt a great distance. For
instance, a ship Is sinking ut sea. The
transmitting station of the vessel, in
stead Of sending a message of the dis
aster, sends a picture that anyone with
Il receiving set will be able to see just
as the present broadcasting programs
are heard.
That all sounds remote low, but
the telephone was considered even
more so, and the wireless, even after
Marconi's immortal message had
brldged the Atlantic, was generally be-
lleved to be akin to the idea of per.
petual motion.

tons, and unless there Is some device
which will hit in that place the signals
will probably be missed. The variable
condenser makes possible the locating
OF wave lengths in between turns If
properly adjusted and concerted in the
circuit.
If the receiving set does not re-
spond to very high wave lengths the
variable condenser can be used and
will perform the work. In this case
the condenser Is connected "acrossn
the inductance-that is, parallel. A
longer wave will be received, and it
can be very nicely tuned in.
In order to receive stations which
are transmitted on wave lengths be-
low that which we can ordinarily re.
ceive on ones apparatus the variable
condenser can be connected In tserles'
with the aerial and the set. This will
cut down the effective wave length of
the system and stations on lower wave
lengths will be tuned in.
Such n procedure, of course, cuts
down on the strength of signals and
lowers the general efficiency of the
receiver. 1t accomplishes the purpose,
however, and is used extensively by
amateurs in their short-wave work.

MAKING Il N
ALTERING THE WAVE LENGTHS
How the Condenser Serves to increase
OF Decrease Any Circuit
Constant.

The condenser is one of the most
useful of all pieces of radio apparatus.
With il all KINDS of stunts can be per-
formed to make receiving set more
~selective and bring in clearer signals.
The condenser can be connected in
the circuit so that 1t will entirely alter
it's constants. Thus If a receiving set
Is so constructed that it will only tune
to the longer wave lengths a condenser
can be so placed In the circuit that 1t
will allow the reception of short
waves Again, a receiver may not be
able to tune up to the longer waves,
but a condenser properly connected in
the circuit will turn the trick.
The variable condenser can be used
to great advantage with tapped coils.
The switch arm and contact point
method does not allow very close tun-
ing-that is, the wave of the signals
desired to be heard may be located
somewhere between two tapped Sec

the seed In a hotbed or coldframe and
transplant to the garden after danger

to remain and thlnned to IL or IS

except to keep them free from weeds.
There are a large number Of varieties
of physalls, and the fruits vary In
