CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY.

The famous library of the archdfo-
cese of Baltimore. which has been
housed In the archiepiscopal residence
for many decades. is being transferred
to the Catholic University of America.
The library is valued at $4,000. 1t is
to be replaced by a Cardinal Gibbons
room, in which will be kept books
and other treasures. including gifts
from all parts Of the world. which
were owned by the late cardinal. In
this Cardinal Gibbons room will be
kept the chalice used by him at the
holy sacrifice of the mass. manu-
scripts of the cardinals sermons. his
diary. copies of books written by him
and books written about him.
Among the books that are being
transferred to the Catholic University
are some Of the rarest in this coun-
try. One of them, which is printed
from wood type, was published in 1879,
thirteen years before Columbus dis
covered America.
Rev. DR.. Peter Guilday, professor
Of church history at the Catholic
University, who is supervising the
transfer of the library, will write an
article dealing with the books as
soon as he has time to make a. study
of some of the more valuable works.
Archbishop Curley has transferred
the library to the. Catholic University
for the purpose of facilitating the
work of members of the faculty of the
studying and writing on various
phases of the history of the church.
The professors of the university had
to come to Baltimore frequently 20
study the various books. Such travel
ing caused much Inconvenience and
loss of time. His grace decided that as
the Catholic University was the great
center of higher education in the
United States. 1t was fitting that the
library be plaed there. He felt that by
such a transfer the library would re-
main in a particular way the property
of the archdiocese of Baltimore. The
history of the Catholic hierarchy,
from Carroll to Gibbons, is to be
found in the books. The volumes are
classed as literary gold mine.
Their numbers augmented by the
recent initiation of the lettermen of

Q U E R 1 E S

Q. I have two-slide tuning
coil and am. hearing $50 and 400
meter stations together. Would
variable condenser improve my
tuning, an diff so how should it be
used?
A. Yes, the addition of a vari-
able condenser of .0OO5 mfd, ca
pacity would improve your tuning
and should be CONNECTED in the an
tenna circuit-that is, in series
with your antenfa lead-in and the
tuning coil. This will reduce the
capacity of your antenna circuit
and thereby sharpen your tuning.
Q. My set is of the loose coup
Ter, non-reg generative type and 1
have no ampliier. Would it be
possible for me to operate two loud
speakers with this receiver?
A. Certainly not. 1t would be
necessary for you to have at least
regenera tive receiver with a two
stage amplifier. Your receiver as
it stands would only bring in the
stations in your locality with fair
volume, using head receivers.
Q. 1 have purchased what was
said to be French tube for use
with a dry cell. 1t worked fine the
than an American tube | had once
before, but on the second day it
turned white inside and now re-
fuses to light. Can it be fixed?
Must | buy another tube?
a. There are many so-called
French tubes on the American
market. Some of them are as near
France as they ever were. They
are "bootlegs' pure and simple.
These tubes are made for sale and
not for use Most of them, in fact,
refuse to work after they are sold
Your tube developed leak
through which the air entered
causing the white deposit. With air.
around the filament is oXidized and
burned up. 1t cannot be fixed. You
must buy another tube, and if the
suggestion may be given, it is we'll
to consider this experience when
purchasing its successor.
