the length of time that the battery

1t might be well to state here, how

RADIO CODE TAUGHT.
WITH PHON0GAPHS
Students, Enabled to Hear
Own Work Repeated, Cor
rect Faults Quickly.
BY CARL H. BUTMAN.

CAMP ALFRED VAIL. n. j., July
21.-Radio instructors and experts
at the Army Signal School here are
elated over unique method of in
structing embryo radio operators by
means of photographic records in
sending and receiving code. A COM
parative test OF several weeks in
"truction by the usual manual method
and the new photographic system
showed that the students who took
the latter course made more and bet
ter progress in both receiving and
sending. Signal Corps officers at the
school are unanimously in favor of
the "Ediphone" method, 1T was stated
Signal Corps. one of the inventors
The new course is of necessity a
standard one for all students, while
fewer and less skilled instructors
are necessary, it was pointed out.
The course in receiving consists
of set of eighteen records so pre-
pared as to furnish practice at
speeds varying from five to twenty
five words per minute. This prac-
tice is supplemented by work in
radio circuits both in the classroom
and field. The course in sending
which was first tried out on a Morse
class with marked success, consists
in giving the student daily practice
in making records of his own send
ing on wax cylinder. The records
are then re-run a sufficient number
of times to familiariZe the student
with his sending faults SO as to
permit correction.
This method of teaching radio tele-
graphy has several advantages over
the old method of placing the class
in charge Of an instructor. In the
first place competent and reliable
instructors are hard to find. No mat
ter how carefully a set of lessons is
prepared, it is Of little value unless
it is followed properly by the instruc-
tor. Very few instructors have the
ability to maintain a regular rate of
speed in sending. 1t requires a
| marked degree of concentration to
accomplish this, and as this regular
ity must be maintained over long,
monotonous periods of time and at
different rates of speed for different
sections. 1t is realized that entirely

The Ha0lO Storage Ddttery-1ATt 1s
There is always an element Of mys-
terry surrounding any. instrument
which is inclosed so that its parts
cannot be seen or it's action observed.
Such is the case with the piece Of
apparatus commonly known as a
storage battery.
The storage battery belongs to the
group Of sources of electricity known
as secondary cells.
In it's simplest form a storage cell
consists Of two separated relatively
inactive electrodes immersed in a
liquid known as an electrolyte, as
shown in Fig. 1. This electrolyte in
the cases of the ordinary types Of
storage battery using lead electrodes
is a mixture Of water and sulphuric
acid.
While the action which takes place
in a battery is entirely different, the
physical construction is very similar
to that of a condenser. AS shown in

It's first scrap occurred in 1852 near
Norfolk, when it sank the Union

The PROV was found recently by
William II. Logue, jr.. lying in OBJ
scurity in a junk yard in the 1000
block Ashland avenue. He suggested
it be given the Maryland Academy of
Sciences.
When the academy doubted it's au-

and now she has refused to allow it
to be moved.
Logue is now trying to effect a
compromise by having the Smith
sonian Institution in Washington
take it. In the meantime both the
Maryland Academy of Sciences and
the Maryland Historical Society are
seeking to get the ram for exhibi-
tion as a relic of the Civil War and
because Of it's interest as part of
the first armor-clad warship ever
built. Francis c. Nicholas, dean of
the academy, has written to the pres
ent owners asking that it be loaned
to the academy for exhibition. He
said Washington Investigator has
compared the description and dimen-
sions of the ram with the records in
Washington and had found com
plete similarity Mr. Nicholas said ii
was proper for Baltimore to seek
retention of the Prov in some public
place of exhibition.
The late Michael ]. Horner found
the relic among a shipment of old
iron from Richmond 25 years ago.
