II has been established by the
pioneer radio engineer that the
usual telephone receiver, such as IL
used on your desk telephone, was
unsatisfactory for radio purposes
1t was not until after considerable
research and experimental work that
a type suitable for radio purposes
was developed (see Fig u.
In order to. thoroughly understand
the theory and operation of this
wonerful little instrument one
would have to have good school
ing in magnetism and elementary
electricity, and the writer will at
tempt to give only brief outline of
what takes place in the receiver.
Refer to Fig This style of re-
ceiver is known as the watch case
tyre and the reason for adapting
same was due to it being small,
permitting it to be worn on the head
by the operator. 1t is a general
practice to wear pair mounted on
a headband, and by SO doing keep
ing out most foreign and unwelcome
sounds.

How To Make Radio Set
Tnbone Receiver Is Essential Making Radio Waves Audible

rectified radio telephone or tele-
graph currents being many times
smaller, therefore requiring a much
more sensitive receiver, and to OBJ
tain this it was necessary to improve
upon the magnets and increase the
windings on the electro magnets
from 1000 to 1000 ohms on each
receiver in order to obtain a greater
number of ampere turns. AS an il
lustration:
An electro magnetic having ten
turns, by passing one ampere
through this winding you will have
ten ampere turns. BY passing
through the same winding twenty
amperes you will then have zoe
ampere turns-on the other hand, if
you increase the turns to 1000 and
pass one ampere through you will
then have 1000 ampere turns, which
will give you greater magnetic pull
thereby making the receiver more
sensitive.
The receiver acts as translator
to the voice or music currents and
converts them to sound waves (With
some distortion) as follows:

that of breaking the wire, which is

Poultry for Pleasure

To the Editor:
AS the Winter Fair approaches my
thoughts turn to the beautiful chick
ems we see only once a year. The
White LeghorD has been exploited
and commercialized at the expense
OF the utility" and heavy" breeds.
We are proud of our poultry farms
and commercial hatcheries, but
should we not have more Chicken
ianciers' in and around Ashland? Z?
There is so much said now about
poultry for profit" and making
war on the Stacker hen," thac the
sentiment is getting away. l keen
my chickens for their beautiful
plumage and the sweet songs they
sing for me, and l love them aspmy
father used to love his pretty horses.
II perchance one of them presests me
with an egg for breakfast, l do the
the cackling myself, so proud am l
OF the gracious gift. If can keep
canaries, dogs and cats, why should
mt | keep a rooster to crow the
morning hour? Seriously speaking,
| hope the Winter Fair will inspire
many of our good citizens to get a
start of the different breeds of chick
ems in their very best strains. l have
experimental from year to year, and
enjoyed it. May tell you my chick
en- plans for 1923? | shall order 25
baby chicks from one of our local
hatcheries (there are no better
White Leghorns hatched anywhere
than right here), and | shall order
from fine breeders 25 each of half q
dozen breeds best strains obtainat .,
regardless of cost, and raise them all
up together. They cannot mix the
first season. It will be no end of
pleasure to compare them and watch
them develop, and next Winter Fair
I will have some fine show birds on
exhibition.

AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK

Education influenced by American
ideas and ideals will be emphasized
this week as never before. The prom
Use made to the United States bureau
of education from many sources, In
hundreds of letters, Is that the week
of December to 8, American Edu
cation Week, is going to be consid
cred in all phases, stressing local
needs as we'll as the broadest aspects
of education as the fundamental
thing in American life.
The American Legion, national
civic and business organizations are
making preparations to carry out the
program suggested for the week
which opened in many places with
fitting remarks from pulpits. Many
governors have issued proclamations
calling upon the people to observe
this week. State, county and school
superintendents are organizing the
civic, business and educational forces
throughout the country, while the
press and the pulpit are giving every
assistance to week Of intensive con-
slderation of special problems.
American Education Week will
present the educational needs Of
America to the people who support
the schools. Schoolmen meet every
now and then to discuss the techni-
cal phases of their work, but unless
the public is informed as to the edu-
cational needs of the country, little
improvement in the schools may be
expected. Some communities, which
have very inferior schools, think
their schools are good because they
have never been told how inferior
they are, and what kind of schools
they should have.
!. American Education Week will af-
ford an opportunity to schoolmen and
all civic and business organizations
interested in education to set forth
The educational needs of America.
Taking into consideration the fac
ilities offered in America for free
education, the number of illiterates
in the country is appalling. Those
who can neither read nor write the
English language are not confined
to foreign born who have come to
friendly soil, but TO a great many
people who can neith-
er read nor write. Until steps are
taken to eliminate the growth of this
element and all are instilled with the
underlying principles of American
ship the nation can not progress as
it should. II is with this element
in mind that the American Education
Week was fostered.
