Faulty Amplifcation
Due to Transformer

Faulty audio frequency amplifiers on
weak signals, particularly on the first
stage, is common complaint. To be-
gin with, the same degree of amplifica-
tion should not be expected on weak
and strong signals. That is, IL with
nearby station the first stage gives an
audibility ampllflcation Of 20 times, 1t
will give less amplif1cation, possibly
only doubling the signals of a distant
transmitter. This is due to the fact
that the output ia tube does not vary
directly with the applied E. NJ F., but
more approximately with its square.
Also, throwing In amplifying apparatus
appreciably alters the receiving condi-
tions of the entire set which In the
case of the very weak signals may rem
der them inaudible. Therefore, when
tuning is done the set should be slight
ly retuned when the amplIfier Is
plugged in, especially on the adjust
ment determining regeneration.
Probably the most common cause of
such amplifcation lies in the failure
to include a small .OO1 mid. telephone
shunt condenser across the primary Of
the first step. 1t is once more the
problem of reducing the positive react
ance in radio circuit The inductance
of an audio frequency transformer is
made very high in order to secure a
transfer of audio-frequency energy.
The reactance is, therefore, much
greater than that of the resistance,
which combined with resistance OBJ
structs the passage of the plate cur
rent
Many instances of faulty amplifica-
tion are due to transformer and tube
troubles and the experimenter should
always make tests to determine just
where the trouble lies.

Construct Your Set
for Permanent Use

1t is only necessary to glance at
many homemade radio receiving sets
to find out they have been literally
thrown" together. Carelessness is q
fault, and explains why so many sets
will not function efficiently.
For instance, wiring Is allowed to
loop and stray around In every direc-
ton, connections are left unsoldered,
wires are merely twisted around one
another, poor connections are made to
the binding posts, and coils and other
apparatus is loosely mounted. The
reason for all of this is "it is only
temporary" AS a matter Of fact, all
this poor work interferes seriously
with efficient operation and tuning Of
the set.
II is evident that many leads and
bad connections on low-tension cir
cults lead TO waste OF current and
are still more disastrous on hlgh-ten-
sion circuits. Close by means of
solder. Small soldering lugs provide a
ready and neat means Of doing this.

Reward Finest Building.

Old London is setting an example to
the world in striving for beauty. The
Royal Institute of British Architects
has granted bronze medal every year
for the finest street frontage built
within four miles Of Charing Cross.
1t was won this year by w. Curtis
Green, for Wolsely house. Piccadilly.
More than a score of fine buildings
were considered by the jury: Earl

THEODORE DRESSER

-
Our English neighbor, the cele-
brated novelist Arnold Bennett, con-
siders Theodore Dresser a leading
ranreseutatiye American novelist.
Mr. Dreiser's work 10 known In
other countries; his books have
been translated Into both French
and German.
There is perhaps no author In
the United States about whom such
curiosity is expressed as Theodore
DreIser. His first book, 'Slster
carrie" begun when he was re-
porting on a western newspaper
brought forth the kind Of success
and discussion that have become
continuous with his succeeding
novels.
II dealt with life in arresting
terms. 1t pictured people In a new
sr-to-be-forgotten manner, and this
is the quality you find in his later
work. For work 1t is. Mr.. Dresser
says: I'm not a hermit. Nor
mysterious. But you know there
are g lot of people that regard
writing as a sort Of picnic. They
flock. Want to know how you do
It. Want to sec you at 1t. 1t all
takes up time. 1t leads nowhere.
Let people get wind of you and 1t
means invitations. Society is a
business in itself. can't manage
1t and do my work, too"
With all his transcriptions from
the terrible things Of life, Theodore
Dresser is an idealist- His insight
Is amazing. His vision far-reach-
ing. The story which follows. writ
ten for the Star Author Series of
Matrimonial Adventures. gives a
new and appealing picture Of Mar
