Mr. Wallace said. "and this contributes

There has been a greatly accelerated
movement OF farmers, and especially
farmers sons, from tho farms 10 the
cities and industrial eenters, the Sec
retary reported, declaring that best
estimates indicate that during July

 The meeting last evening was at tended by about 15o persons interest ed in the new Radio work. Ear Lewis of Berlin, a Radio operator foresaw a bright future for the club and has offered to extend his services toward making it a success
 Describes Work
 D. J. Stevens of Waterbury gave an interesting talk on Radio work and was pleased at the attendance of the first gathering. Mir. Lewis gave some valuable information regarding the operating of the Radio and the pro- Sless Of the work in general. There have been more inquiries forwarded him from this city regarding sets, than he has received from any other place. This went to show, said Mir. Stevens, of the interest centered in New Britain The object of forming a local club was to aid those inter- ested in the work who are at a loss as to where to commence. The club would be backed by men who under stood the sets and " th their informa- tion, much Knowledge could be gathered by the amateurs in starting their own instruments
 The greatest drawback today. said MT. Stevens was of the many interfer- ences encountered by professional senders sent by the amateur. The one big fault of the beginner was to have his instrument timed too high which caused great discomfort to the learned individual when attempting to receive concerts or reports from far away parts. Any one," said Mir. Stevens. "can operate Radio with a little or no knowledge as the modern sets are made very simple with sever al new developments and inventions" The standard sets today he said are much better than those of six months ago and the amateur can purchase just what is necessary.
 The new club" pointed out MT. Stevens, will be means of interest ing entertainment as the operator can receive concert music, news and re- ports from all parts of the state.
 Transmitting Laws In an effort to stem the tide of rising amateurs who unknowingly | make a practice of timing instru ments too high, there will be con ference held on February 27 in Bos- ton or New York to determine the am ount of transmitting the amateur n New England states can have. In said Mir. Stevens, the anna eur is allowed but one hour each .

day for transmitting. In this country, they have free range with no laws Igoverning them. There is a move on foot here that all instruments must be timed to a 200 meter wave. Viola tion of this rule, if passed, will mean the suspension of the operators license.
 In Waterbury. there is an En- gineering committee attached to the Radio club whose duty it is to visit all operators and time their instru- ments within the law measures.
 The club here will give the mem bers an opportunity 10 purchase sets for flat table use as experimental work There are scores of people becom- ing interested every day." said Mir. Stevens. land the local club can hold discussions, valuable to the beginner and there is an exceedingly good start tonight"
 Herald Will Aid
 Mir Stevens felt that with the CO., operation of the Herald, the success of the club is undoubtedly assured. The Herald will run a question and answer column of interest to Radio operators and will keep them in touch with the work going on.
