build one for themselves. Now the question is what do we do for the boys who already have sets? That is easily answered. First. they also have a chance to win the set but for the others divide themselves into two classes, the ones who have sets tha: will work and those who have sets that won't work. We'll take the lat ter first. For these boys who have made sets but find that they will not work, If they will just bring their sets down here next Saturday we will help them with the set and tell them anything else they want to know along the wireless line. Now for those fellows who have sets and they will work we will answer any ques- tions they want to know also. bu, you fellows who have sets that will work no doubt find that the other Bugs" around your neighborhood think that you are in the charity bus iiness and are constantly asking you questions that you don't feel ukc answertng-well, ws have come to your rescue. Just bring the little follow down here and tell him to ask anything he wants to know.
 Now you see that we not only help boys without sets but any boy in town will get some good out of these demonstrations. whether he has a big set or a small set or no set at all. In the case of the latter, they will either go home with The Age-Herald set or the knowledge to make one with as little cost as possible.
 Last Saturday Thomas Smith, 305 Lucy avenua Graymont Heights. was the lucky boy and he was certainly surprised as this was the first time Thomas had attended ono of these demonstrations. He said that he had a set but had never been able to get 1t workin. but Saturday morning he found that all his troubles were over as far as radio was concerned and Sunday he called me up to say how well the set was working and he was So enthusiastic he could hardly talk. as his set as well as all the others we have given away worked right off the bat"
 We are expecting another big crowd next Saturday and we want to help you with your troubles. Bring tho Bug" next door who Is always pu5zling you with his questions Next Saturday morning at II o'clock at The Age-Herald building.

Giues Information on
 Radio Sending Set
WILL HENRY

l know from sad but personal ex- perience that it has always been the desire of practically every radio anna teur to possess a radiotelephone of his own, so he could talk a little over town rather than hammer on the old key all the time. but when it was known to wise bug" the ambitious one met with the sad words that come many times in the life of radio bug, "It can't be done"
 This advisor no doubt said that to build one of these apparently mys- terious and rare instruments, re- the accent on the money. Then as this ambitious but discouraged one thought the matter over he could probably convince himself that he possessed the time and skill, whether he did or not, but when 1t came to the financial end of the situation he was about 99 per cent short, as most amateurs are after buying a new bulb or having the old battery overhauied or any of the financial misfortunes of such a bug had come upon him, so the matter was dropped and he went back to the old spark gap.
 This is indeed a sad story. the ending is very sad for such a good start with no such ambition, but tis true. This has happened to many but think it has come to an end now, as MT. Williams Neville of the Knight Hardware and Electric company has made a radiophone sending set of almost entirely re- ceiving parts which is giving very good results. The grid leak and two and one-half mrfd. condensers are no fsfx
 the micsophone. which are not used on a receiving set. The set is very simple in both operation and con- struction. The bulbs are Western Electric tubes fsame as used on the power amplifier of a receiving seD and the regular radiotron U, V. POI will do- MT. Neville states that he Will gladly give information to any one wishing to make one of these sets and would greatly appreciate any comment on how his set is being re- ceived.

Static Offers No
 Danger to Amateur

Well, here goes some more about static. This old o. R. M. has stood by us ever since the first wireless message was sent and is still just as strong as it was the first day 1t cracked. Many amateurs are afraid
 of this element burning up the house or something similar, but ac- cording to all the information can get, an aerial does not endanger home.
 In the first place the amount of current in an average crack of sta- tic is about 10 volts. You can easily see that the amount of heat from
 this current could not very well set house afire. This is less than the current on your door bell. The heat
 would only be small faction of an ampere. The reason why many ara
 afraid of this element is because
 they hear it after it has been ampli-
 fled by two-stage audio frequency amplifier which would theoretically amplify the current from the dectec-
 tor 100 times. The real fire risk of
 a home as far as l can see is de- creased rather than increased by put ting up an aerial.
 It is natural that now when SO
 many people turn radio fans over night that there will be some goods on the market which are not what they are advertised to be and these
 new ones in the game get "stung" by purchasing this type of material. There are some devices on the mar ket which are supposed to eliminate our subject. static, but they fail every time. We are just advising our read CTS to stick to standard apparatus and don't get stung by these static preventers as there are none on sale at the time of this writing. that will work satisfactorily. Of course there is liable 10 be new idea come out very soon thaat will answer the purpose these are supposed to ans wer and you no doubt wonder how you will know when such a devise comes out. The answer to this ques- tion Is quite simple. When sucn a
 device comes out that is really success it will be written up in al of the large wireless magazines.

RADIO DAYS WILL. BENEFIT ALL BOYS
 WHO TAKE INTEREST
If Your Set Won't Work Bring It Down to The Age
 Herald Building '.

By having The Age-Hsrald Radio Day each Saturday we are trying tc benefit every boy in Birmingham no matter whether ho has big radio set or little one or none at all
 ExeEy boy who ocr1ss down here on Saturday will derfvs some good from it. We give absolutely free to some boy a complete AEs-Hsrald radio receiving outfit with all acces- scries. In other words we start some boy in wireless every. week with set that will work and give him good results. He doesn't have to buy a thing. Then for the boys who are not so lucky we explain in every detail how to build the Age Herald radio set. which will snit nearly any boys pocket book as it has been carefully designed to be built for efficiency and inexpensive ness.
 This helps the boys who have no eet by either giving them one or explaining in detail to them how to

 The Knight Hardware and Electric company has been having radio de- monstrations on Wednesyays. After each demonstration some boy is given a complete set. Last Saturday Sam Koplon was the winner. Sam lives at 1928 Virginia avenue. The Wednesday of July 19, Marvin Prick ett, 522 Twentieth-street. south, was the winner. The Knights will have another one of these demonstrations next Wednesday at 1 p. m., and an other boy will get complete set. The Mathews Electric company which has installed radiophone station has received permanent li- cense. The call is W. I. A. c. Do you fellows realize what good taking up radio has done for you? Probably you don't. Radio has brought boys who were not naturally talented along this line to realize that they could learn it. Since these young men have become interested l in this they have accomplished things that no one ever thought boys could accomplish. They have done things in construction and technical work that even they themselves have never thought they had the ability to do. There have been boys that would otherwise hae amounted to nothing in this world if they had not become | interested in the game and found out for themselves that there was something they were gifted in. If any of you fellows don't know whether to take up radio or not, if 1 it Is a question of whether 1t will l do you any good in later occupa tions or not, take it up. No I don't i mean to try to be an operator on a ship or something of that sort, but whether you expect to do this kind | of work later on not this will help | you as it involves little of practi- cally every science.

Recent investi gations have shown that the addition of small quantities of wax to varnish that is resistant to water or acid fumes, will make 1t considerably more risistant. says the Popular Mechanics Magazine.
