PRACTICE LOYALTY.

Loyalty is a big word. Seems t)
us it should be spelled in capital let
ters. Doesn't it do your heart good
to see a bunch of school teachers-
mostly. imported-worhins. boosting.
pulling, and if need be- fighting for
their school? Isn't 1t an inspiring
sight to see church congregation
gathered around its leader, fighting
for their own church and its success? |?
(Not against the other cEurch.) Does
it always make you tlink of thrifty
town to learn that the home people are
behind it with their good words and
patronage? Doesn't it always make
you think of happy home to hear the
husband or wife excusing the little
faults end magnifying the virtues Of
the other members of the fai!.ily? We
might ask = string OF similar qucs-
tions column long. but If ycu can
answer these in the affirmative, why
don't you practice the system and be
come blessing to your family, your
school, your church and your commun-

RADIO EXPLAINED
| ~ By F.. II. LEWIS
INSTRUCTOR New YORK YMc.A. RADIO SCHOOL,


Suppose that it takes one -millionth
Of one second from the start of one
wave to the starting Of the succeed :
ing one. What distance does the first
wave travel before the next one
starts? The answer is, of course,
-millionth of 300.000,000 meters,
which equals 800 meters. The length
of one wave is exactly the same as
that of every other wave created by
that particular sending station unless
changes are made. Therefore, the
length of each wave in this case is
800 meters. Also, therefore. the time
elapsing between successive waves is
-millionth of second in this
particular case.
Although the speed. or velocity, Of
ether waves is Interchangeable their
length may be altered at will by
suitable means at a sending station.
Commercial wireless stations are re-
quired by law to use wave lengths of
400 and 500 meters For commercial
broadcasting wave length of $50
meters Is being used extensively at
present. while amateur operators and
eXperimenters are limited to shorter
wave lengths.

The Multl.JRck.

The Multi-Jack.
When father Is listening Ito the
radiophone concert, with the ear
pieces on his head. his young son,
for whom he told the salesman the
set was bought. is usually 'out of
luck" That is. unless there is multi
Jack and another pair of head tele-
phone receivers handy. A certain
manufacturer realized that connect
ing q number of telephone receivers
together and plugging the whole
business into the cabinet jack was.
at best, an unsatisfactory makeshift.
So he designed the multi-jack. which
Is probably destined to be one of the
most sought after specialties upon
the market. d
This device has three automatic
lacks. built into a block of insulating
composition. Three pairs of tele-
phone receivers may be plugged. one
into each jack. so that they are in
series with each other. A flexible
cord may have its twin wires con-
nected, one to each binding screw of
the multi jack, and the other end OF
the cord connected into plug. This
latter plug can then be inserted into
the desired jack of two-stage am
plifier or receiver. Instead of one

WAVE LENGTH.

The length Of water wave may
be measured from one crest to the
next succeeding crest. So may also
the length of an ether wave. The
ether waves which are created at a
wireless sending station are invisible,
however. and their length cannot be
measured by ordinary means.
Water waves travel very slowly
when compared to ether waves. The
speed of all waves created in ether
is about 1856, 900 miles per second. 1t
is customary in wireless to consider
the speed in meters per second and
the length Of a wave in meters. The
speed in terms of meters is 100000
600 meters per second.
Each ether wave starts at the
transmitting antenna and Is radiated
from it in expanding circles, in a
manner quite similar to water waves
created by dropping stone in a
quiet pond. The distance away from
the antenna that one wave will get
before the next one starts depends. of
course. upon its speed Of travel.

1.-The United States is practically
alone in the magnitude and type OF
it's broadcasting development. Broad
casting reached considerable propor-

approach to American broadcasting
methods is being made now in France.
