Every time the condenser is charged, and a series of oscillations started, a series of these waves is radiated. The vibrator on an induction coil causes the condenser to be charged about 400 times per second. Since each com plete discharge causes series of os- cillations, and therefore waves radiat- ed from the antenna, we see that the ordinary induction coil will send out waves from the antenna at the rate of about 400 series of waves per second. Each series of waves caused by one complete discharge of the condenser is called a "wave train". Therefore, with an induction coil transmitting set, the frequency of the radiation is about 400 wave trains per sond. By increasing the tension on the vibrator of the coil, this frequency may be raised to about 700. A transformer when used on the ordinary alternat- ing current lighting circuit, will cause the emission of waves having a ire quency of 60. Special alternating current generators sometimes cause the emission of waves maving ire quency of 800. The tone of the sig nal when received depends to a great degree upon this frequency, a low ire quency wave producing low tone, and highere frequency wave produc- ing higher tone.
 Because the individual waves of a wave train radiated by a spark set decrease in amplitude, due to their loss of energy, the waves are said to be "damped out, and the waves are called "damped waves". If the waves lose energy rapidly, the waves are said to be highly damped. The meas urement of the degree of damping is termed the decrement of the wave. Thus a wave having a decrement of .02 is more highly damped than a wave having a decrement of .01; the former wave train loses much more energy, and accordingly dies out much more rapidly than the latter. In order to receive the signals at the farthest possible point from the transmitting station, the energy losses of the waves must. be kept as low as possible. The decrement of the waves should be less than 2 for good operation.
 The location and the construction of the antenna has considerable effect upon the decrement of the waves. There are several types of antenna construction. The "T", the inverted "L", the "V'', and the umbrella type are the most common forms used. Each type is named after the shape of the antenna, and each type has cer- tain advantages. The "T" antenna radiates best in the direction in which the horizontal part extends. The in verted "L" radiates best in the hori- zontal direction opposite from the free end, that is, in the direction going from the free end toward and beyond the lead-in wire. The "V" antenna

can only be detected a comparatively short distance away. To radiate way es which will travel long distance before their energy is dissipated, it is necessary to erect one or more wires at a height in the air (such wires being called the "antenna") and also one wire to the ground, both the antenna and ground wires being con-
 ected to the oscillatory circuit. Since there is certain amount of capacity between the antenna and the ground, we can consider the antenna as one plate of condenser, and the ground the other plate. Because we have this condenser available for use, we can dispose with the condenser we used in the circuit described above, and with a few changes of connec- tions, we will have transmitting set which, will send radio waves con- siderable distance.
 In our first circuit it will be noted that we had the condenser, inductance, and spark gap in series, and that the high potential was connected to both sides of the condenser, which it will be seen by following through the cir cult, was the same as connecting the high potential to both sides of the spark gap.
 In our second circuit, connect the antenna to an inductance coil. Con- meet the other terminal of the coil to one side of the spark gap, and con- meet the other side of the gap to the ground. Since the antenna and ground are considered as plates of conden- ser, we see that We have the same cir cult which we had in our first cir cult; condenser, inductance, and spark gap in series. Now connect the high potential leads to the two sides of the spark gap, using either spark coil or a transformer as the source of the high potential. Close the primary circuit, energizing the spark coil or transformer. Sparks will be seen to jump across the gap in the same man. ner as they did in our first circuit. The radio frequency oscillations will be set up, and radio waves will be radiated into the ether. These waves will travel considerable distance be- fore their energy is dissipated. The greater the energy given to the oscil- latory circuit, the greater the distance at which the waves may be detected.
 At every oscillation of the high ire qeuency current, the current rises to maximum value and then falls to zero. It then reverses its direction, rises to maximum and falls again to zero. As the oscillations continue, they lose energy, and the amplitude of these waves of current is decreased. If we drew a picture of this action, the result would look like series of waves, each one a little smaller than the preceding wave. A picture, or graph, of the radio waves radiated by the antenna would look exactly the same as the graph of the oscillations,

In the last installment we learned that any electrical circuit could be made to oscillate if it contained capa- city and inductance in series, provid- ing that it was given an initial charge of energy. We also learned that the frequency of the oscillation could be varied by changing either the capa- city or the inductance in the circuit. In order to send out radio waves, we found that we only were obliged to adjust either the capacity or the in ductance until the circuit was oscil- lating at certain frequency which would cause the emission of wave train having the desired wave length whenever energy was given to the cir cult. We now desire to know how energy may be given to such cir cult.
 If we take a spark coil, similar to those used in the Ford automobile, separate the high-voltage terminals with small air gap, and close the battery circuit on the primary side of the coil, we will see spark jump across the air gap. The action which took place is explained thus: When the battery circuit was closed, current began to flow through the primary winding and through the contact spring on the end of the coil, the spring being in series with the pri- mary winding and the battery. When the current had attained sufficiently great value, the iron core of the coil became strongly magnetized and drew the spring contact toward it, suddenly breaking the circuit, and the rate of the flow of the current very quickly became zero. The study of electricity teaches us that the electromotive force (voltage) produced in a coil of wire is in proportion to the rate of change of the number of lines of magneto- motive force (flux) which pass through the coil. Since the flux den- sity is in proportion to the amount of current flowing in the energizing coil, it follows that the induced voltage in any coil is in proportion to the rate of change of the amount of current flowing in the energizing coil. Due to the resistance and the inductance of the primary winding of the spark coil, when the battery circuit was closed the current built up to it's maximum amount relatively slowly, and the rate of change of the amount

MOCK WEDDING

The following, from The Pas Her aid. will be read with relish by oldtimeTs who have enjoyed the elixer of life in the haleyOn days of pioneer mining camps, and with holy horror and uplifted hands by those puritanical, hypocritical Phar- isees who can find no joy for them- selves except in taking the joy out of life for others:
 A party of playful prospectors staged a mock wedding on Satur- day night, or rather it was mock on one side and serious on the part of the groom. It appears that Swan Olafson sought a bride to share his sudden wealth acquired by disposal of some claims at Elbow lake Jack Owens conceived the idea of being the bride, and borrowing some fem mine attire he clothed himself therein. The two were introduced in a party of several others, and between hefty drinks a bethrothal was arranged. Charlie Stabback by virtue of being a fire ranger, and therefore legally endowed with marriage powers, was parson: The ceremony performed, the couple regaled their friends with lunch and drinks, the while coddling each other with sweet and tender nOth- ings. In one of these tender em- braces the pseudo bride seized her lords cheek none too gently with her teeth, pressing a stubby week s old beard into his flesh. The howl that followed was quickly succeed ed by action and the enraged groom tore the dress off his bride and re. vealed "her" naked and shameless male. The fun went on however and Swan joined in, with the best
