Variometer Stators
MAY Be Easily Made

A simple way of making the outer
coil Of variometer so that the wind.
ing is opposite the rotating ball is de.
scribed below.
Fig. is the molder 1t consists of
half ball cut out ut one end SO that
plug will fit in.
Fig. shows both pieces fitted to-
gether ready for winding. This is
wound with suitable wire and then
covered with mixture of sealing wax
md rosin, on the wire, so that 1t will
hold the wires together. When the
mixture has hardened, the end plug is
taken out md the winding is pulled
Off, as in Fig. 3.
Two of these windings go with n
variometer and are placed in boxes
just deep enough TO cover it. The coll
should be placed exactly in the middle
of the box and the same mixture

The tuning coil is No. "a enamel in

equal spaces. The switch levers,
switch stops and switch points are put

connected to the switch points and the
coil Is mounted behind the panel with
wooden brackets as shown in Fig. 4.
This completes the tuning coil and

The variable condenser Is, or can be,
any standard condenser having ca

called galena). 1t may be either an
old one or it may be purchased for

President Co

President Coolidge's message to Congress
may or may not please the majority of Americans
we are of the opinion that those of them who
are thinking straight are pleased with it. Be
that as it may, it is marked by carefulness of
procedure which cannot be otherwise than pleas
ing This carefuness is apparently one of the
big characteristics of big and is phase
of administration which has big appeal in these
times which well characterized by that old
fashioned phrase pulling and hauling" This
carefulness is more than the mere conservatism
of the moment-it is pure caution, inbred in the
man Coolidge through generations of ancestors
who not afraid Of overworking the stern
New England conscience. Not the least of the
many fine features of this message are its candor
and its terseness, two somewhat rare qualities in
the speechmaking of present day statesmen.
Whether Congress is willing or whether that
body will find it possible to follow the lead of the
President in his accommodation of the present
taxed condition in which America finds herself,
remains to be seen. But the ordinary citizen,
oppressed by tax burdens, finds much of comfort
in the Presidents clear, straightforward and
urgent appeal on this matter.

Magnus Johnson, Senator-elect from

few words some interesting, sugges-
tive and, to many, rather surprising
things. cousin" Hiram is dismiss
ed with the epithet, "backslider. +"
The California Johnson, toughened by
varied campaigns and experiences,
will hardly feel hurt by this new
Characterization, but when cousin
Magnus declares that foreign rela-
tions are the country's chief concern
just now, and announces that, while
he is against the League of Nations,
he is going to propose very soon a
plan of his own to promote world
peace, he is positively unkind to his
political kinsman, besides assuming
role that will astonish those who
have been persuaded that Europe is
of no concern to America.
Hiram, as the chief protagonist OF
isolation, has led many to think that
the "west"- middle, and south, and
north, and far-is the particular hab-
itat of the notion that the United
States is not bit interested in
abroad" and that, by initiating the
ostrich, it can keep safely out OF
European entanglements and ''broils.'

no stretch of the imagination can be
considered Atheorist," an "idealist,
Dreamer" or "doctrinarie," leave
the milking of his cows in the north

Several Redwood Falls mothers and oil

Several Redwood Falls mothers and other
mothers in this vicinity were much disappointed
at the time the chidrens clinic held here re-
Gently, that they were unable to get their chill
dren to the examining physician. That was be-
cause Redwood Falls had clinic of only one day
instead of two days more These clinics are
supported through the sale of the little Health
Seals sold at Christmas time. The more seals
sold in county the more clinics may be held.
Mothers are coming to the immense benefit
to be derived from these clinics and it behooves
every thoughtful person to purchase just as many
seals as possible in order that there may be plenty
of funds for the support of the clinics. Remem-
Der this when the school children call you to
purchase these seals within the next few days
and purchase few more for the sake of the poor
little kids who didn't get look-in at the last
clinic. Maybe we have whole week of
clinics next year!
