The amateur will tell you that the
Paragon three-circuit receiver, because
of it's greatly superior selectivity and
sensitivity, can pick and choose between
broadcasting stations of about the same
signal strength with less than one per
cent differential.
This means that with a Paragon re-
ceiver you get what you want when you
want it-complete messages and clear
music from the station you tune in on,
without interruption and jamming. I'm
til you have listened in with a Paragon
three-circuit receiver, you can not guess
the real pleasure and fascination of
radio.
Paragon receivers are built by The
Adams-M organ Company, which has
been a pioneer throughout the modern
, 1923-02-04

development of radio. Paragon was rhe
first regenerative receiver manufac-
tured. Paragon effected the first trans
continental reception mot prearranged)
from New York to California. Paragon
effected the first transatlantic amateur
reception. During the war Paragon
receivers proved superior to all others
in the in~terception of enemy signals by
the United States army and navy.
Long before broadcasting popularized
radio with the general public Paragon
equipment was the choice of the expert
enced amateur. He will tell you today
that if you want quality and satisfac-
ton, Paragon Radio Products are the
best and safest buy on the market.

QUOTATIONS OF

Broker Explains Traffic in
German Currency

Quotations on the price Of Ger

'sThe statement" said Macfariane.
that German marks can be bought
10 many for one dollar. IL misiead.
ing. The calculation Is based or
the daily report from the New York
stock exchange. which quotes
price IN dollars per one million
marks This. however. is merely
tho bid price and expresses only an
approximation TO which brokers'
commission must be added.
THE buyer Of these marks gets
draft on Berlin. not currency, ana
Germany refuses 20 ship currency 10
foreign countries az they have not
enough for home circulation.
Furthermore. II has been the
experience Of people who have sent
drafts 10 relatives In Germany. that
such drafts are sDbJect 10 various

banks refuse TO pay the whole
amount due. but credit The amount
