BENDER EXPLAINS S
SQUIER'S INVENTION

Louis ]. Bender, major, Uniteu
states Signal Corps, in a statement
concerning the use of electric light
ing circuit for rad'U transmiss'o On
says:
Concerning the nature of Gen
Squier's recent development. using
the electric lighting circuit for "a
dio transmission. The lighting cir
cult is used in no sense as al an
Tenna. but only "a the cunnectiE,
medium between two or more S:a-
tions. The principle employed e
that a radio telephone transmitter
being connected to the electric
lighting circuit, radio telephone re-
ceivers can then be connected any
where on the same circuit for re-
ceptfon from that trSnsmitter. The
chief virtue in this plan is that the
transmitted material Is confined to
the physical circuits, and no inter-
ference results to pure radio trans
mission"

The CALLS CHURCH
TODO REAL WORK
Evangelist Jones Says 1t Is
Dividing Energy on Too
Many Jobs.

EVANGELIST J. BOYD JONES.
Ninth street Christias Church n. e.
"As the Father hath sent me SO
send I to you," and This one thing
do"
We have here the mission of the
church as given by our Lord, and
the Apostle Paul emphasizes the
need of church leaders sticking to
their task. There is a general feel
ing today that the church, is not
functioning as she should and I be-
lieve the reason is that she is not
doing the one thing, but that her
energies are divided among many
tasks and she is therefore doing
none of them very well.
There are those who insist that
the church Should be engaged IL
all manner of schemes for the up
lift OF the race. The reformef
claims that it Is the supreme bust
ness of the followers of our Lord
to reform society.
remember when frst began
my ministry that the leaders
against the saloon declared that If
we knocked out John Barleycorn our
troubles would be largely at an
end. and about the time he took
the count we were told that IL we
would give the movement for the
enfranchisement of women our
SUPPORT that practically all of our
ills would cease.
Well. we have given the women
the ballot and have written the
Eighteenth amendment in the Con-
stitution and the millennium has not
| dawned yet. believe in reforms
but / am confident that we can ac-
complish greater good by attending
strictly to our own business. and
that Is to preach the gospel OF
Jesus Christ.
Others insist that the way TO heaI
our hurt Is through legislation and
the church is urged to take a hand
in making laws. The man who be-
lieves that the church should be a
police officer. insists that we have
laws sufficient and that our task
is to see to II that they are en-
forced. There are still others who
claim that IL the church would de-
vote its time and energy to the So
| cial uplift OF mankind that the
faSe "ouiu speedily De trans
formed and we would have heaven
| on earth.
I am in hearty sympathy with
every movement whose object is
the betterment OF the world, but ]
| am quite sure that the business OF
the church Is to follow the in
structions given by her Divine
Founder, and, with the Apostle
Paul. say, This one thing 1 do.
Our task is the regeneration Of the
individual and il we purify the
fountain-the heart-the individual
will be all right. Men cannot be
uplifted en- masse, but when
enough individual units have been
regenerated society will be what
all good men desire it to be-

Questions and Answers
Test BuEEef.

Q. (a) Could you tell me how to
test a crystal? (b) What kinds OF
crystal detectors would you sug-
gest for a small receiving set?
W. T. E.
A. (a))A crystal is tested by use
of a test buzzer, the circuit con-
sisting of a buzzer, dry cell, con-
tact switch and a small coil. A
coil placed in series in your anten-
ma circuit will respond to the oscil-
lations set up in the buzzer circuit
transferring them in turn to the
secondary circuit in which your
head phones are connected The
loudest sound is heard through the
phones when this secondary circuit
is in resonance wit the antenna
circuit. This is the condition
necessary for clear receiving. For
the benefit of several amateurs
asking this question. a diagram
and further explanation will be
given tomorrow.
(b) Gslena. silicon, and carbon
undum are crystals most used.

Q. Your paper has not published
the full details concerning Maj.
Gen. Squier's method of using the
ordinary electric light socket to

heard the idea is simple, II is

(b). Will you please suggest a
book which covers the subject Of
radio satisfactorily from the ANA
teur standpoint?

printed elsewhere in this column
The idea is simple as you have sug-
gested, but no details will be pub
lished as yet.

A recent story from Tanana,
Alaska describes an atmospherical
phenomenon. following a period of
extremely cold weather.
The air was very still and dry
and heavily charged with cleo
tricity. Two persons shaking hands
received a severe shock and burn
ing sensation. Telegraph and teIe-
phone wires sang and purred so
loudly they were audible for sew
eral miles. Some ravens flying
through the rarified al passed suf-
fctently close to each other to cause
cracking noises. similar to the
sputtering of a wireless receiving
set.
The charged condition continued
for several hours. and was followed
by remarkable display Of the
Aurora Borealis. Flashes of red
and green spread across the sky.
At Koyokuk an Indian medicine
man, less frightened by the strange
electrical atmosphere than hts
tribesmen, attempted to console his
followers by rubbing with the
hands, but his touch produced 80
much discontinue he was driven
from the community house to his
