TIPS TO THE RADIoIsT

The danger Of stringing radio
wires over light or power wires
was demonstrated In New Jer-
sey recently when a well-known
citizen was shocked to death.
Radio distance lends enchant-
ment. A writer says, "A great
many amateurs prefer to hear a
few discordant notes from 1000
miles away than q wonderfully
executed program from their
own town."
Radio accomplishes some great
and new thing every day. Now
1t has been found that old razor
blades can be used in making
condensers and another way to
get rid Of old blades is given to
a grateful public.
Radio has gone to the dogs. A
Hood River, Ore, paper de-
scribes n toy dog with his tail
caught In a trap. Upon calling,
"Here, Tige," the voice vibra-
tions release the trap and the
pup springs at you.
One of the latest inventions In
the radio field Is a filter that
separates the telephone and tel
egraph waves. We shall look
forward to the day when filter
will separate the good music
from the bad and automatically
send the latter to Uranus.
In boring or saving wood,
fiber, ETC.. 'soap Is far better
than OIL. Also II screws are
soaped with ordinary kitchen
soap they will enter the wood
easily without danger of ruin
ing the head slots, and. more
over, they may be readily re-
moved at any time.
DR.. Marconi lives q life Of
clock-work regularity upon his
yacht. He breakfasts at 8 and
stolerates no tardIness on the
part Of those dining with him.
He Is an indefatigable worker
and holds himself IN readiness
to give personal attention to
any radio matters that may
come up, night or day. N

bring peace and good will. But
there are heavenly messengers who
are always speeding somewhere, not
only ut Christmas time, but all the
time, for that matter-and so this story
has to do only with the small, red
checked boys of the postoffice Special
Delivery" service, who go and come
far into the night on Christmas Eve.
