the something. .or-other. To my
knowledge there have been since 1910
but two radically new and useful cir
cuits-the Armstrong regenerativs
Armstrong superheterodyne. Most
of these alleged new circuits are the
products of so-called radio experts.
Let me explain my meaning of this
term. Before radio broadcastinS be-
came popular. there were two large
commercial companies in this coun-
try. A handful of universities, tho
army, navy and Department OF Com
merce. These had almost the entire
available number of radio engineers
Radio. like any other engineering
art. progresses slowly and logically.
with a gradual prosement.
Do you realize that there n no
radical difference between the radio
telephone receiver of 1913 and tho
broadcast receiver of 1929?
The present regeneratiye three-tupe
set is practically identical with navy
radio compass receiver Of 1917-there-
fore. do not wait for the revolution.
Enjoy radio now.
The vacuum tube is probably the
greatest invention Of the last hair
century. Until l became interested
in home radio a few months ago, l
was chief engineer of a company op-
Grating the radio of goo merchant
ships. large number OF these ships
are still doing good work with crystal
detectors. and the vacuum tube was
disclosed in 1907.

Why Nearby
Stations Are
Hard to Lose

When a powerful transmitting sta
ton sends out radio energy from its
aerial, nearby sets are more or less
affected by what II termed "the
splash" 1t is this splash that pre-
vents nonsensitive sets or the novice
tuner from pulling away" from local
interference and picking up distance
stations.
Radio waves have been likened 10
water waves. A small pebble tossed
into a pond causes successive Sc
ries Of waves to radiate from the spot
where the pebble strikes the water.
II light cork Is placed somewhere
within the circle OF these waves 1t
will be affected by them. The nearer
1t is to the source of the energy
the point where the pebble strikes
the water--the more violently VIII IT
be agitated.
However. 1t is possible to so weight
the cork as to make 1t less sensitive
to the "splashing' effect. In other
words, II will be more stable in It's
response to the incoming waves, how
ever close it may be to the source Of
energy.
All Of this also Il true of radio
broadcasting and radio reception.
The energy thrown. out from
broadcasting station Is the pebble that
was tossed into the water. The cork
| Is the receiving set. If the pebble"
Ia a large one II will mako heavier
splash" and create more violent
ldisfiirhance.

Among the radio sets shown by
the Oalsford Music company are five
that are capable of tuning out all
local Interference. These models are
made by reed-Eisemann, Garod.
Melco and Crosley. the first three
being built under the Hazeltine neu-

The strong points OF this set are Its
ability in bringing in coast stations
as clearly as stations located inland.

space between it and the road, from
which the slippery earth was remov-
ed in digging for the foundation, will
be filled with gravel from the hill
above, thus serving a double pur-
pose since the gravel might other
wise some day slide onto the road
and block traffic.
The crib is built up as the fiji pro-
crosses and is tied together like the
timbers of the log house, only in this
case the members are not timbers but
posts of reinforced concrete made in
a concrete products yard in Ohio and
shipped to the constructor ready for
use. Each Of the posts is eight feet
long and either six by eight or eight
by eight inches in section. The grill
work begins at the bottom of the fill.
Posts are laid end to end parallel to
the center line of the road to make
the face of the grill, then other posts
are laid on top of them but at right
| angles and projecting into the fill
are held down by the earth placed
upon them and thus prevent the whole
from being pushed over.
Where it can be used such cribbine
is as satisfactory as wall, is much
cheaper, allows the easy passage Of
water from the fill behind it and
when made of concrete, is permanent
Altogether 100 feet of such con
struction was required on the Han
j cock county job.
| When completed this road will con
meet with concrete paved road t,

ture, there will be paved road aloni
