ALERT RADIO DEALER LEARNS
Not Only Stocks His Shelves With
Goods, but Takes Lessons
In the Art.

Besides stocking his shelves, the
progressive merchant in radio is also
employing some of the summer in re-
plenishing his mental supplies of radio
information. The taking of courses in
very convenient form of carefully pre-
pared lessons in magazine, or from a
competent instructor, is highly desir-
able, says Radio Merchandising. The
business part of radio is going more
and more into the hands of men who
have basic knowledge of electricity

and telephony. This, then, is the sea-
son for stock-taking, not only of the
contents of the show cases, but brain
pans.
Many alert merchants are employ
ing themselves with diligence along
these lines. because they realize more
and more that from now on the trade
will go to the dealers who can provide
service vitalized by actual knowledge.
When the vendor is thoroughly ground
ed in the art he need have no fear
of summer doldrumS nor of static OF
any kind. commercial or mental. The
calling of radio merchandising is a foe

reticent person. His journal, or diary,
his letters, his book of prophecies and
other writings fill several well-sized
volumes. But one searches in vain
for the simplest statements about his
early life. Volumes have been written
about the date of his birth alone, and
there still is no agreement. He was
born, according to various historians,
on sixteen different dates, ranging
over period of twenty-six years.
Furthermore, Fernando, his son and
biographer, and Las Casas, his most
important historiographer, are equally
battling and uncommunicative. Henry
Vignaud, who emphatically repudiates
the Spanish cory, nevertheless
writes: "Their silence, under all the
circumstances, leads to the belief that
they were Intentionally mute, and that,
for some reason or other which we
cannot fathom, they did not wish to
convey to us what they knew, what,
indeed, they could not help knowing on
the subject"
Now this evasiveness characterizes
every detail touching his early life.
Was he actually born in Genoa? He
certainly does state words to this ef-
feet. But why were not his words ac-
cepted at face value in his own time?
Did his contemporaries instinctively
sense mystery? Did his sentimental
references to Genoa sound to them
hollow and artificial? How else could
one explain the confusion which is al
ready described by his son Ferdinand:
$50 it is that some, who would cast a
cloud upon his fame, say he was of
Nervi, others of Cuguero, and others
of Bugiesco, all small towns near the
city of Genoa, and upon it's coast. 9th
ers, who were for exalting him, say
he was a native of Savona, others Of
Genoa, others, more vain, make him
of Piacenza." Assuming that Christie
pher Columbus was descended from
Italian stock who were definitely set
tied in Genoa perhaps for generations,
how easy it would have been to sill
ence all doubts.
But we have it on the express testi-
money of his own son that Columbus
deliberately aimed to obscure his true
country and origin. GAS God gave
him all the personal qualities for so
great an undertaking, he wanted to
have his country and origin more hid
and obscure" In explanation of this
strange desire, Fernando loses him
self in incoherent, fantastic symbol
ism, plainly indicating desire to abet
his fathers purpose. Is there really
no explanation, however, for this OBJ
scurantism? 1t has been limited that
Columbus was consumed by an ambi-
ton to found family that should take
it's origin in him, but argue his Span
ish protagonists, may not this appar-
