MERIDEN HIGH MAY
 HAVE RADIO COURSE
Principal Already Considers In. Stitution Of Such Department

Meriden, March 15.-"If the dcyel- opment of radio telegraphy and radio telephony continues to such an extent that radio knowledge will become ne. cessary to the life activity of the average citizen, it is probable that a course in radio instruction will be added to the curriculum of the Meri- den high school" said Principal Fran cs s. Bacon yesterday afternoon.
 "The development of the science of radio telegraphy and telephony during the last six months has been startling and there is large possi. bility that when the art has out. grown it's fad stage. that there may be considerable and stable demand for instruction courses in radio sciences in the schools Of the nation To say, at the present time. that there is a necessity of such courses would be a rather premature comment, fol educators must wait until the art be comes somewhat stabilized before il will be possible to gauge the necessity for such instruction.
 Radio Club
 "At present there is no course ir radio science included in the required work of the Meriden High school, al though considerable attention hal been given to a study of the subjec in the physics courses taught by P S. Miller. A radio club organize' here last spring, and of late interes in the society has increased, and q present there are about forty actiN members. With funds provided b. the members of the Radio club. re ceiving sets have been constructed and set up at the High school, an there is likelihood that as interes increases the club will purchase send ing apparatus. The work of the clu members, supervised by MT. Miller has been quite comprehensive.
 Tt is safe to say that if a knowl edge of radio science is considere by the school authorities to be neces sary to better the lives of our pupil that a course of instruction will b inaugurated, but such action must b directed by future events, At tn present time it does not seem neces sary, and such a course would not h considered in meeting college CT trance requirements"

Good oil represents an insignificant item in car operating costs. Yet nothing is so vitally important in warding off heavy upkeep-or that rack.and.rattle that kills so much of the joy of motoring.
 Use Atlantic Medium It is the highest achievement in motor oil refining! Only the most suitable heat.resisting crude oil hydro. cartoons are used in it, while fifty.fve years of refining experience and twenty-five years of special study of automotive fabrication assure a quality and correctness that admit of no mistake.
 The way Atlantic Medium retains its "body" under varying operation conditions is remarkable. Not bearing that this oil will not reach;Sno pressure it cannot withstand; not cylinder heat it won't resist. You can depend absolutely on Atlantic Medium to keep friction surfaces apart.
 Ask definitely for Atlantic Medium" and you'll never have occasion to go heavy on your purse for motor repairs.
