Joinino Wires.

When joining wires together always
make the western Union" splice. This
is best made by using two pairs of
pliers. or If available, pair of con-
nectors and pliers. After the splice is
made melt up some solder in ladle
or an old frying pan. 1t is best to have
the heat for this fairly close to where
the splicing is to be done, to avoid car
rying the hot solder around Anoint
the splice well with the soldering acid.
When the solder is good and hot dip
the entire splice into it and hold it
there until the splice becomes as hot
as the solder. On withdrawing it win
be found that the splice is fully equal
to a continuous wire.

amplitier tube is energized by the sig
nal oscillations in the antenna circuit
The amplified energy in the plate cir.
cult of this tube circulates through
the primary winding of the untuned
transformer (RT) and in turn excites
the grid of the second tube through
the secondary of the transformer. IL
the tuned impedance CID, in the out
put circuit of the second tube, is adj
justed to the wave length of the sta
ton to be heard, amplified signals will
be delivered by this stage to the in
put of the detector tube through the
grid condenser indicated By inter-
posing grid leak resistance of about
one and one-half megohms between
the grid and the detector tube and
the positive end of its filament, great
err stability of tube action is obtained.
Oscillation of the amplifier is con-
trolled by adjustment of the poten-
tiometer, connected in shunt to the
filament battery. The arm of the po-
tentiometer is moved toward the mega
tive end of it's resistance coil to the
point just below where oscillation
with consequent distortion of the
broadcast received would begin. In
the event difficulty is encountered in
controlling oscillation in the second
stage of the amplifier with the return
grid lead of the tube connected di-
rectly to the negative side of the fila
ment battery, this lead may be joined
with that from the first tube at the
potentiometer arm. This connection
is Indicated in phantom in the dia-
gram.

The Condenser.

Capacity is the property associated
with condenser, whereby it is able to
store electrical energy. A condenser
generally consists of two or more cleo
trical conductors separated by an in
sulator The capacity of condenser
may be increased by increasing the
size of the conducting plates. and also
by decreasing the distance between the
plates and by increasing the number
of plates.

LEGION ACTIVITIES

The officers and members Oh the
American Legion are much gratified
at the hearty response to their ap-
peal to the citizens of Payette, in re-
gard to the purchase of the Uniform
Flag Outfits. Several Leglohalres
were out last Friday afternoon, ana
concluded most of the Business Dis
trict and made good start IN the
residence section.
AS previously explained, there are
two types of these outfits, and any
one may take their choice. Perhaps
the most popular among the resi-
dence section, and used altogether
Tor upstairs apartments, is the
bracket outfit, which fastens TO the
side OF the building and is fitted with
slot for the flag pole. In tins way,
the flag drapes gracefully over The
street, and in UNIFORM line. The
entire town will be solicited in time,
but this requires much time and eff
fort on the part of the boys, who are
all giving their time gatis. There
fore, 1t will be great favor If those
desiring these outfits will hand their
name to the Adjutant, or to Com.
mander John H. Holman, whose OF
flee is in the Rex Spray building.
We wish to get all signed up before
Memorial Day, and this will only be
possible through the cooperation of
the citizens TO this city.
The price of the entire outfig is
$4.S5, complete. This consists Of
good quality flag AS it., ~ it. pole
with halyard, and the service which
goes with the outfit. This means
that it will be fitted with either
bracket or slot in sidewalk. The
money does not need to be paid I'M
til the outfit has been delivered and
installed. Who will be first?
The next meeting of the Amerf-
can Legion will be on the evening
OF May 10, at o'clock. This will
be the regular monthly social affair,
and at this time, we will be enter
tanned by the Boy Scouts. To the
many who do not know what that
means, we will say that it will be
worth the extra effort to come on
this occasion and witness the pro-
gram of Ritual work and stunts
which they put n. 1t is an inspira-
tlon and will make you love your
country and your flag all the more.
These Scout organizations represent
the highest type Of the youth of
America and their influence in the
line of Civic Betterment can not be
fully realized until one comes in ac-
tual contact with their sphere of ac-
ton.
All Ex-service men are cordially
invited to the meeting Refreshments
will be served, and an enjoyable time
is assured.
Brig. Gen. Patch reports that the
plans of the big Memorial Day Cele-
oration are Undertaking in fine
shape. Every organization in the
county will be asked to join in the
parade land other services of the
lay. Many of these are already
making active plans along this line. |
I there happens to be any organiza-
ION that fails to receive an invita-
ion, it is an oversight on the part
Il the Committee. We intend to rut
N the largest parade ever seen in
'aytte, and that is saying a lot.
Don't forget to plan to spend the day
With us. Full program will be pub
ished at later date.

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT

Once again the shrek of the siren
has announced the presence of the
demon element FIREi and the
threatened destruction of life and
property, and once again those noble,
brave and fearless men OUR FIRE
MEN have sprung from beds of
peaceful slumber donned a hasty,
scant attire and plunged forth into
the darkness of the night, fearlessly,
unselfishly offering their very lives,
health, time and clothing that the
progress of the dreaded element Fire
might be checked without the loss
of other lives or property. Can any
thing be more unselfish? Can there
ever be a more noble purpose than
for one to offer his very life, the
sweetest possession of all, to save the
lives and property of others. That is
the supreme sacrifice, and only those
who are trying to live up to the
Golden Rule and the unselfish teach
ings and example of the MAN Of
Gallillee" are willing to offer it.
What if each and every citizen of
our City should donate in cash to
the same purpose, the same amount
in actual value as donated by our
firemen? There would be more in
the fire fund than enough to pay
for brand new equipment each
year. No estimate of value can be
placed upon fireman's life or
health, but value can be placed on
his time and on the shoes and cloth
ing he ruins throughout the year. 1T
is true the firemen is paid small
fee for fighting a fire, but it is so
enthusiastically small Jas compared
to his real loss in clothing that Meth |
er his time or his clothing are in
any measure compensated for; yet
there are many citizens who have no
word of praise but many words of !
criticism or condemnation for the |
fire department. If each and every
citizen would boost and encourage
the firemen and even donate only
the small sum of $1.00 per year,
there would be more than adequate
funds in the department to comply
entirely with the requirements of the
Underwriters for obtaining the mini
mum rate of insurance which would
save into the city each year many
thousands of dollars which are paid
out each year in excessive insurance
rates, which money never returns
nto our city, but if saved would :
'apidly enrich our local inhabitants ]
because of its being spent and re- {
pent among our own townspeople
md drawing interest on itself every
Inc it is turned over. 1t is lament !
Die that our past councils have been i
0 utterly negligent and lacking In
oresight as to overlook such impor- c
ant measures and the citizens of
ur city are to be complimented up S
n having selected the type of men of a
'hich our present council is com l.
osed whose wisdom and capabilities d
ermit them to comprehend situa. b
ons of this nature and whose sense t.
duty to their constituents prompts il
lem to decisive progressive action. "
