T,aeino Bee. in Australia.

Some interesting facts concerning
native bee hunters come from Aus
tralia
Wild bees nests are usually well
hidden. and. the flight Of the bees be-
ing too fast for the eve to follow, the
aborigines have devised various igeni-
Gus methods OF tracing them.
One way is TO watch the bees gath
ering pollen and then. when honey
laden bee alights on u flower, to place
piece Of white feather-down. mois'
tened with gum. on the underside Of
its body The native eye can then fol-
low the bees hOmeward journey.
A white beekeeper on the south
coast of New South Wales is little be-
hind the natives in cunning. His meth
cd is to watch bees drinking at pool.
II they fly away slowly, and at no
great height. he knows that nest is
close at hand: II they fly fast and
high the nest is likely TO be miles
away.

FIRST RADIoPH0NE EXCHANGE
Opened at Croydon, England, to Make
Connection With Pilots Of
Air Expresses.

What Ia said to be the nrst radio
phone exchange in the world was
recently opened AT Croydon, England,
the point from which the air liners TO
the European continent take their de

The chief use made OF this ex-
change Ia to connect the aerial traffic
controller, who has his headquarters

London. with the pilots Of the air ex-

point Of difference Is the close
coupling to the antenna. Being con-
the anrenna circuit is ar maximum
at all times. This causes the ra-
diation resistance TO be high. which
seems TO be the factor that keeps
the tube from oscillating freely

we are led to believe that this circuit

II we must have single circuit tun-
ers the thing to do to reduce the ra-
distion to 4 minimum is to reduce
the size of the antenna series CON
dsnser and increase the number of
turns in the inductance. This will
give sharper tuning and there will be
much less trouble in getting the tube
to regenerate.
In many localities there is great
deal OF Interference from spark sta
tions; especially In the cities on the
coast or Great Lakes, where there are
commercial stations to handle the ship
traffic. These spark stations do not
tune very sharply, and even IL the sta
tion is located several miles away 1t
is often impossible to tune them out
with the average tuner.
When tuning for faint station and
using amplification there is nothing
more nerve-wracking than to have a
spark station roar in Unexpectedly.
There Is little that can be done about
this Interference. II the station is
close a change OF wave length would
do little good even If this were pos
sible. If IL is a commercial station

work than our brOadcasters are, and
