Surtou 221 South Archibald street
Fort William. Ont. This represent is
the first attempt at transcontine ntal
tests by Canadian radio amateurs
Lon" distance tonnuniCs ton among
Canadian amateurs dates from the
close OF the world war. when govern
ment restrictions We're lifted. Anna
teurs were allowed to transmit on 200
meters during the closed navigation
season. or on wave lengths between
80 and 200 meters the open part of the
year. With the advent of the CIV
continuous wave) method OF trans
mission they started to do a little
lC!%-diStanc. work
II was not until last winter that il
became common practice for anna
teurs to work across the border,
especially in the province Of Ontario,
but there was stili little Communica-
tion between provinces The past
summer saw. perhaps the real COM
mencement of amateur activities The
number of stations grew 500 per cent
! in one year. AT the beginning OF this
season there were four or five long
distance stations in the large cities.
and the amateurs soon discovered
that they could transmit over long
distance and communicate with sta.
tions all over the United States.
1t IS now a common thing for a
Quebec amateur to work an Ontario
man. and an Ontario man to work
stations in Winnipeg or Regina. The
Canadian amateur is fast catching up
with his American cousin in amateur
! radio activities. Several Canadian
! stations were heard in Europe during
tests. The Canadian amateur has his
self-i imposed periods OF quiet for the
! benefit Of broadcast listeners. He is
allowed as much freedom by his gov
ernment as his friend across the
line" He can cover as great a dis
tance and handle as much traffic.

BS COMMANDER STANFORD
HOOPER, 4. y. y.

Radio is becoming increasingly use
full to the farmer and the stock raiser
as well as being Indispensable to the
mariner. 1t is rapidly extending its
realm over the land for beneficial
service in addition to its long esta b.
lished and undsputed realm over the
sea
The tiller of the soil and the ranch
man are just becoming acquainted
with that mysterious agency which
for the past twenty-five years has
faithfully served the SeaSoinS man.
and they find that ii can render prac-
teal aid to the landsman III remote
areas quite as readily as TO the sailor
on the high seas.
1t is as a result of the weather
forecasts daily broadcasted by means
of the dot and dash code of radio
telegraphy and storm warnings siml-
larly broadcasted periodically that
the mariner receives information
which influences him in keeping his
vessel i'll potI or in seeking shelter
from approaching storms when at

"Rody Capacity"

Many radio fans have discovered
that while listening in to concert
program diScordant sqUeHls ana
howlings are heard when the opera
tor touches a dial or binding post.
AT times it will be noticed that the
noise gradually diminishes as the
hand is drawn away. In the true
radio bag curiosity is instantly
aroused and he will not rest until
the cause is discovered.
Sooner or later he will encounter
the technical term, body capacity.
In simple English this means that a
charge of electricity from the body
has entered into the delicately ad-
iusted circuit of the radio apparatus,
thereby putting the receiver out OIL
tune. -
Such an experience gives tangible
evidence that the human body is In
effect an aerial, sharing with the
wires of the radio apparatus ca
pacity to store electricity To carry
out the analogy, the body. like the
aerial has induction and capacity. II

ing 1t and also offers certain re-
sistance to the passage of an cleo
trio current. It is these qualities
OF resistance and induction which
make possible for the body to cause

iation by a flow of electrons.

Land Service Popular.

TO the landsman 1t constitutes an
agency for affordins amusement and
entertainment as well as all aid in
various industrial pursuits. and il is
available and applicable 10 his needs
not only in the remote regions, but in
the large cities as we'll.
To the mariner. however. il is in
no wise regarded as an agency for
affording amusement, although he
obviously is in greater need OF means
'of amusement than the landsman. but
strictly as a medium by the utiliza-
ton Of which he may follow his call
ing with efficiency and with a greater
measure OF safety to his ship, his
crew and himself, and especially to
those for whom circumstances have
decreed travel by sea and who are
thus entrusted to him for their COM

Reassignment of wave lengths for
the several types of radio broadcast
ing stations probably will be the
~esult of the conference at the De-
partment of Commerce. Tuesday.
between Secretary Hoover, expert
radio engineers and heads of the
radio manufacturing firms These
men will meet at the call of Secre-
tary Hoover in an endeavor TO
amelorate the present congestion
and confusion in the air which has
arisen through the astonishing de-
veIopment of the wireless telephone.
The problem is one of most in
tensely technical character, but it is
not one without hope of fairly com
pIete solution. Fortunately, the
sending of radio telephone messages
can be arranged in wave lengths
sufficiently far apart SO as not to
interfere with each other. and re-
ceivers can. at their option, tune
their receiving Instruments to the
different wave bands. With the I'M
provement in the art and in the
deiicacy Of instruments. the distance
between lave lengths may eventually
decrease, and thus the number of
layers of messages increase.
Furthermore. il is possible TO
increase the number Of sending sta
tons and thus the variety of ma
rerial. if the power applied to certain
wave lengths is limited so as to cir
cumscribe the area of distribution
from given station. Beyond this
again, certain times day may be
set aside within certain wave lengths
for certain types Of information.
At the present time. however. the
public broadcasting stations. which
number 5SI, have hut two wave bands
$50 and 400 mcters-on which TO
transmit their programs Conse-
quently considerable difficulty has
been found in precludins interference
which threatens to destroy the
growth of the art
Secretary Hoover is Of the beiief
that with the variations that can be
given through different wave lengths.

through the staggering of stations on
