it impossible TO use style aerial.
Our boys live in tenement or apartment
houses, but cannot get permission to
erect aerials. In considering the mat

simple crystal set Vacuum tubes are
out of the question owing to expense.

at suitable location q club station

Q-Could a receiving station be
blocks away from the Williamsburgh
Bridge near the river? Would the
bridge interfere? Is storage battery
necessary? Would set work without
one?
A.-A station could be erected. but

tice alone can tell. 1t would undoubt-
edly be necessary to use vacuum
tube set, in which case a storage bat
terry would be necessary. There is,

which operates on dry cell.

Comedy, more laughs than can be
counted, will be the Majestlc's share
of the honor in contributing enter
tainment to "Go-to-Theatre Week"
now being celebrated. The picture
on exhibition there is "A Connect
cut Yankee In King Arthur's Court"
Mark Twain's great comedy story.
"a Connecticut Yankee" is more
than funny; It conveys an argument
of striking force. 1t sets out to
prove the thesis that we are as good
as our great-great-grandfather. II
is the fashion nowadays to talk Of
the good old times" Mark Twair
sliows just what the good old
times" really were Ike.
"A Connecticut Yankee" is an
imaginative masterpiece. IL puts a
modern. shrewd, up-to-date young
American against a background of
medieval chivalry, and the humor
is the result of the sharp contrast.
He has armored knights riding mo-
torcycles and he himself in an an
