The ball has been started Hoillng
along these lines already. English
amateurs and some, Of the profes'
sionals are talking about their pro-
posed trip to America to take part
In our championships. The amateurs
will play at BrookliRe in September,
and in connection with that there
will be a team match which should
create a lot OF interest.
Players in England are keen to
try conclusions with the Americans
and to try and wipe out the defeat
administered to them this year and
last in Great Britain.
The foreign pros are going TO play
at Chicago, but only a few OF them
will take part. Taylor. DurcaL and
Mitchell are going to tee up nt
Skokie and maybe one or two others.
There will be no team match in

transmission. While there is I'M
bounded pleasure in tinkering with
a sending set, considerable confusion
and damage may be caused by it's
improper use.
Before an amateur may erect
transmitting station - even of the
smallest type - he must secure a
First Glass Amateur license from the
government.
What You Must Know.
The applicant for this license must
be familiar with the adjustment and
operation Of wireless telegraphy ap-
paratus. He must be able to trans
mt and receive ten words a minute
IN code. He must know the rules
and regulations regarding interfer-
ence.
The beginner should study the
booklet Radio Communication Laws
of the United States and Interna-
tlonal Radio Telegraphic Conven-
ton, published by the Government
Printing Office. Washington.
IN addition to the foregoing, the
applicant must be able to give a com
rlete diagram and explanation of his
apparatus.
Second-Class License.
If an1amateur living in remote
part of the country cannot appear
before the government authorities in
person, he NAV obtain a second class
amateur license which will permit
HIM to erect his station.
But he will have to convince the
officials that he understands the
regulations. The first class license
will be issued sometime later when
an inspector visits the district.
Usually these examinations are
held in the several custom houses
throughout the country. For in
formation concerning the nearest
office write to the Bureau of Navi-
cation, Department of Commerce
Washington.
The penalty for operating,a trans.
hitting station without license is
$500 fine and confiscation of the an.
paratus-regardless of its power.
But no license is required to in.
stall and operate a receiving set.

AZ THE RYI AMBER

No "best seller" of modern times
has ever enjoyed such a tremendous
vogue with the great American pub
lie as has "Jane Eyre" the famous
novel by the noted English authoress
Charlotte Bronte, now made into a
picture by Hugo Balm and shown at
the Rylander Friday for one day.
Originally published in England,
in l847, under-t the pseudonym OF
Currier Bell, the story took Lon,
don by storm, and although
Thackeray's book, "Vanity FAIR,
was then running as a serial pub
lication, ''Jane Eyre" the first move
of an unknown author, temporarily
diverted attention from the popular
Thackeray and his writings.
The story soon found its way into
American Libraries, and since that
time, down to the present day, hun,
dreds of thousands of readers have
mingled tears and smiles in following
the career of the little orphan, Jane
Eyre, who fought her way through
