Sunday Blue LatO
For Cape Charles

An ordinance forbidding persons
firms or corporations from engaging
in any business on Sunday other than
work or business of necessity OF
charity has been passed by the Mayor
and City Council of Cape. Charles
with view to restraining indiscrimi-
nate violation of the Sabbath Day.
+ Any person, servants or corporation
found guilty of violating the ordi-
nance will be fined not less than S.
nor more than $50 for each offense
and the Mayor or any Councilman by
whom judgment or conviction is rem
dered may require of the person OF
corporation so convicted recogniz-
arce in the penalty of not less than
500 nor more than $500, with ap-
proved security, to guard against a
repetition of such offense for period
OF IL months.
This means that gasoline for the
Sunday joy-riders, cigarettes and Gig
ars will have to be provided for on
Saturday, and that all soda fountains

Electrical Firm Opens
Display Room Again

We desire to call attention to the
new "ad" of the Electric & Ice Mfg.
Co. This enterprising firm is now
nicely fitted up in the old location of
the West Restaurant. The interior of
the building has been wonderfully i'm
proved, and with the opportunity af-
forded in the way of decoration by the
peculiar character of the merchandise
presented for sale, it is pleasure to
look upon, especially when the room
is illuminated.
( Another attraction is that wonder
full instrument, the radio. An invita-
ton is extended to the public gener-
ally to go in and hear the news of the
world, listen to splendid music, and
to the oratory of prominent men. A
visit to the Electric Emporium will re-
pay you.

Automobile Accidents
Numerous Last Week

Last week saw quite a number of
auto accidents on our streets, but
luckily none were attended with seri-
Gus. results. Most of these are caused
by reckless driving. A car turning to
the right into Clarke avenue from
Maple street, maintained too high a
rate of speed, was compelled to
swerve too far to the left. and conse-
quently collided head-on with another
car at rest in front of Shaw's barber
shop. A little more care would have
prevented this.
1t would be well for all auto drivers
to remember that Pocomoke's streets
are very narrow, and they require ex-
ira care in the handling Of cars to in
sure personal safety.
Possibly the most serious accident
was that the collision between two
cars on, Market street, in one of which
were Mr.. and Mrs. Bunting of Beaver
Dam; and the other, Harry Sharpley
and others from Greenbackville. The
cars were considerably smashed up
and Mrs. Bunting so seriously cut a
bout the face, that she has been I'M
der medical treatment ever since.
This accident was the result of q
moments uncertainty as to which side
of the street one car was to take. Ac-
cording to accounts, this machine kept
so long on the left side as to make
the approaching car determine to &C
to the left. At the latest moment g
turn was made to the right, and the
collision was on.
Too much care can not be taken ir
manipulating the treacherous auto
mobile.

However, it was not until Edwin II.
Armstrong made his great discovery
Of circuit arrangement which fed
back a portion Of the large local plate
current into the circuit through which
the incoming signals arrived, thereby
greatly simplifying the strength Of the
signal. that the vacuum tube reached
Its now recognized position Of superb
ority as detector Of radio signals.
The circuit arrangement by which
energy from the plate circuit Of
three-electrode vacuum tube Is fed
back to the grid circuit Is known by
q different name, though, on account
of the different names used and the
different circuit arrangements used to
accomplish the same results, amateurs
are very apt to become confused. Some
of the names given to the circuits
which feed energy from the plate cir
cult to the grid circuit are Feed
Back" "Regenerative," flicker"
Tuned Plate and "Ultra-Audion."
In Fig. F is shown q threeele

tor furnishing an alternating differ

Is connected to circuit containing

DARLING TOWN

Sept. 27:-rAugust Blomquist, a for
mer resident of Darling township, who
is now employed near shafer, this
state, but who still has real estate in
terests in Darling, has interested him
self in the matter of obtaining the res
toration of a complete passenger and
freight station service et Darling sta
ton and he has fled with the state
railroad and warehouse commission a
duly acknowledged petition asking the
Northern Pacific Railway Company to
show cause why such service should not
be restored.
In his petition MI. Blomquist alleges
that the N. P. station at Darling is
closed during the day time and open at
night and that two opera tors are en-
ployed at night. He asks that the sta
ton be kept open both day and night
and that it be made freight station
and that tickets he sold to passengers;
also that the express company take
anything that can be shipped by ex-
press, including eggs, cream, etc.; that
provision be made whereby freight ears
can be ordered at the Darling station
instead of at Little Falls or Randall as
at present.
Mr.. Blomquist calls atteption to the
fact that in 1921 ffty-two carloads OF
potatoes were. shipped from Darling
station and in 1920 forty-two carloads.
Should the petition be favorably act
ed upon a hearing will no doubt be
held at Darling station and the people
of that territory will be given an op-
portunity to voice a protest.

RF0RMANCE METHODS
Rules Az Drawn Up by Bureau OF
Standard for Investigation Of
New Apparatus.

Owing to the very large demand
which has arisen for simple radio re-
;ceiving sets. many retail dealers In
other lines Of work have taken up the
handling OF such equipment. 1t Is very
difficult for such dealers to decide
whether sets offered by the manufac-
;turers are Of good or poor quality,
says Radio Merchandising. The whole
art is SO new and some Of the Ques-
lions involved are so technical that
the problem presents considerable diff
l1culties.
-: AS a consequence, the Department
OF Commerce, and particularly the bu-
:reau Of standards, has received a.
great many requests for tests Of such
apparatus. As it is impossible for the
bureau to conduct all the work of this
fnature which it would be called upon
to perform, it has drawn up rules COW
ering performance test methods which
ARE to be carried out by the Electrical
Testing Laboratories of New York in
:co-operation with the National Retail
Dry Goods association, the latter rep
presenting the retailers Of radio receiv-
ing sets. AS the work develops, sug-
:gestfons regarding improvements Of
methods Of testing will be subject to
the approval Of the bureau Of stand
ards.
. The tests outlined include: Inves-
litigation as to the material and work.
manship, the mechanical and electrical
design, simplicity Of adjustment, rug
!gedness, sensitivity, sharpness Of tun-
ing, wave length range and faithful
ness Of reproduction in radio telephone
reception.

coming signal until { point u reached
where the energy fed back from the
plate circuit Is just equal to the losses
In the secondary circuit. q
J An increase In the coupling be-
tween the two coils NJ and N will
cause the tube to oscillate. BY chang
ing the tuning Of the secondary cir
cult, the frequency Of the tube oscil-
lations will be slightly different from
the frequency Of the incoming oscll-
latons due to the received signals,
and the beat note will be heard in
the phones. The pitch Of the beat
note will be the arithmetic difference
between the frequency Of the incom-
Ing oscillations and the oscillations
furnished by the oscillating detector
tube.
The human ear Is most sensitive to
a note corresponding to 1000 vibra-
tons per second or electrically to q
note produced by 500 cycles. Suppose
the received signal was on a 2O0meter
wave length Of 100000 cycles. By
adjusting the circuits SO that the tube
would oscillate at frequency of L.

denser c, the natural period Of the
circuit between K and 7 can be made
to have the same frequency electri-
cally as the alternating current sup
piled to the grid at TT by the alter
nator. When this condition is reached
the tuned circuit between the points
K and Y becomes an infinite induct-
ance in the external plate circuit. The
potential variations between K and 7
are now a maximum and are exact
amplified reproductions Of the poten-
tial variations applied to the grid cir
cult by the alternator.
Going back to the simple type Of
standard loose coupler hookup for
vacuum tube, we will have circuit
arrangement as shown in Fig. G. Sup
pose that the principle of the circuit
Of Fig. F be applied to the circuit ar
rangement Of Fig. G. The result will
be Fig: II. In Fig. H the inductance
M has been placed in the secondary
circuit and the inductance N has been
placed in the plate circuit. =
When the coils NJ and N. are widely
separated Fig. 81 is essentially the
same as Fig. G. An incoming radio
signal impresses small difference Of
potential on the grid of the tube in
Fig. III which in turn liberates a large
amount of energy in the plate circuit.
AS the coil N is brought nearer the
coil NJ some of this plate circuit ener-
gy is transferred to the grid circuit.
This reinforcement, electrically, Of the
incoming signal by energy transferred
from the plate circuit to the grid cir
cult by the coupling between the two
coils NJ and N, causes an increase in
the energy liberated in the plate cir
cult. Coupling the two coils M and
N closer and closer will cause great
er and greater amplifcation Of the in
