AS for myself, perfect bliss has al

If I could ever have helped out with

ran such an emporium in our village,
should have been content, and asked
for nothing in my Christmas stocking.
But such Joy has always been denied
me.
Herb Weston had charge Of the

he was to me the last word in sarto-
rial perfection, and the object of my
secret envy. He was plump and i'm

were without a wrinkle. He was con-

Young girls adored Herb; young
men envied him. He had such self
possession, such assurance, such per-

day as he saw me mounting Moses,

chases in the store.
His cynical smile chilled me. That
was the end of my ambition. 1 real

kVII by do you not write hand
w book of etfquette?" Sir Phineas
Pigee asked me last evening as l was
dining with him at his lodging place,
The question fiattered me coming as II
did from such a discriminating and tai
ented writer, and, besides, there was
upon me the urge Of many experiences.
I recognized at once the need Of such
a work though 1 was uncertain as to
the demand.
Only that morning as 1 was strolling
In leisurely and unobtrusive way to
my office, had been pushed into the
mud by a group Of frizzled-headed
young women who occupied the whole
breadth of sidewalk as they sloshed
giggling down the street. When l ut
tered an involuntary word Of protest,
they gave me an insolent look.
A young boob, whose name did not
know, accosted me as Tommy" as he
rushed by me-a salutation not wholly
conventional and one which I have
been wont to reserve for acquaintance
of a somewhat more intimate charac-
ter.
Being of a logical turn Of mind, l
began at once to organize my material,
to select specific Illustrations, and to
decide upon the topics to be discussed
1 should of course have to say some
thing upon the use Of the telephone In
social intercourse, Of the increasing
habit of smoking in the presence of Ia
dies-or gentlemen-of the proper
lighting of dance halls, of the eliminat-
ing or ignoring Of the chaperon- The
local custom prevalent among newly
engaged couples, and followed some
what by those who contemplate such a
relationship, Of the young mans cling
ing persistently and tenaciously to the
young woman whenever they appear
upon the street, l should devote a
chapter to. Attention given to the
teeth, or the nails, or the complexion
upon the street or in public gatherings
will need to be discussed. How prop
erly to wear the galosh should be def
nitely settled. A score OF pertinent
topics rush into my mind in quick sue
cession, so that 1 feel confident that
there will be no dearth OF material
when the volume is under way.
1t will not be out of place, am sure,
in such a work to say something IN
defense of conventionality, of respect
for authority and for the rights and
feelings of others, Of courtesy and
kindness of heart, for some OF these
things are at the very foundation OF
the regulations which are supposed to
control our social relations There Is
a wide field for such a work, 1 can see.

Where loading is resorted to great
care must be exercised to procure re-

sition of the switch is such that It
neither cuts in or out condensers the
set is standard and will operate nor
mally over its limit of wave length
range. Should the condenser switch
be thrown to position indicated for
the "600-meter" stations, then two
condensers in series are cut into the
circuit and placed across the grid vari-
ometer and secondary of coupler.
The switch thrown to the position
of 81 900 meters" has a different eff
feet 1t disconnects all previous con.
nectiops and adds capacity from the
plate circuit to the grid circuit. The
two condensers are connected In
series, the connection being made
from the plate back to the filament.
Another connection Is then taken from
the center of both condensers and
placed to a point just prior to the
grid condenser, but in the grid circuit.
This then provides for capacitative re-
generation over the entire wave length
range up to 1000 meters.
The condenser values should aver
age about .0O025 capacity, and, as ex-
planned, should be of the mica and
copper foil type. Why most of the
sets failed to function properly is due
to the fact that regeneration was not
available on the higher wave bands.
In Figure 2 a cam switch or anti
capacity switch arrangement is illus
trated, but this is merely a method
Of accomplishing the same result as
the previously mentioned switch. The

cam switch appeals to most radio fans, |
and therefore is more often employed. |

CLARENDON, Va, January ia
bill making it legal for the board of
supervisors of Arlington county to
borrow money was introduced In the
state legislature Wednesday by Charles
T. Jesse, the county's delegate to that
body. -
There Is no doubt in the minds of
county officials that the bill, which
was entered as an emergency measure,
making it effective upon passage and
applicable to Arlington county only,
will have easy sailing In the state
body and will be passed at an early
date.
1t is the hope of county officials that
the bill will be enacted into law before
the board meets again, January 2S, in
which case the board. 1t Is said, will
float loan of sufficient size to replace

Richmond to request that such bill
be presented were Supervisors, w. j.
Ingram Of Arlington district and z. c..
Turnburke of Washington district,
Commonwealth Attorney w. c. Cloth
and William H. Duncan, clerk Of the
court.
1t was reported today from an au-
thoritatfve source that the board Of
supervisors would at their next meet
ing appoint superintendent Of roads,
with powers approximately as broad as
those of county manager. Under the
law the county is not permitted to
have county manager, but 1t is
planned to attain practically the same
results with the appointment of a
