Ho,D American Fliers
Gained Day on Trip

"a newspaper date line-'Parama-
shru Island, KurileS, May 1T-has
done more to make the international
date line an understandable reality to
millions of readers than could numer-
Gus chapters in school biographies" J"
says bulletin from the Washington
headquarters of the National Geo
graphic society.
This unusual date line appeared In
the morning papers of May II that
had gone to press about 4 o'clock in
the morning. The dispatch told of the
arrival the same day, Saturday, at
IL :35 in the morning, of Americas
rOund-the-world fliers apparently
seven and a half hours after the
papers were printed.
But because the fliers had hurdled
the date line immediately after leav-
ing the last Aleutian island they had
jumped twenty-fGur hours into the
future. Their arrival was really about
sixteen and one-half hours before the
papers went to press. They had be-
gun to speak a different language
from America-their II :35 Saturday
was the same as II :35 Friday in the
United States"

by JOr1N l.. nElNAh
Now that we have become used to
transmitting on the shorter wave
bands and have found them worth
while, it is proper that we turn our
attention to a tuner which will allow
us to tune down to these short waves
and lower. The future trend in anna
teur transmission will be down and
yet further down in the wave-length
scale.
Most of you are familiar with the
tuner; therefore, it is not necessary
that we go over any part except its
application to any of the shorter
wave-lengths.
Fig. / shows the circuit diagram.
You will note the absence of the plate
coil and the addition of a coil in the
antenna, which is for the purpose of
detuning the antenna circuit so that
it's effect on the tuning will be zero.
Through this means the tuner can be
calibrated before being connected to
the antenna and it's celebration will
remain constant regardless of the size
or type of antenna to which 1t may be
connected The greatest use of any
tuner is not only to react to a signal,
but also to be capable of celebration
SO that the signal may be found at a
pot corresponding to the celebration
at the transmitter. A distinct advan-
tage of this returning coil is that 1t
cuts receiver radiation to zero
The antenna coil is connected to
one point of two-contact switch. The
second point of the switch connects to
small fixed series condenser. This
allows either the coil or condenser to
be used. The selectivity of the tuner
can be judged from the fact that a
XIV. 500-cycle transmitting station
1000 feet away can be eliminated by
a five-meters change on the tuning
dial. AT station 1XAM communica-
ton has been carried on with French
stations when 1CKP was in operation
The celebration of the tuner is unaf-
fected when the series condenser is in
use. You may, therefore, change from
one to the other if interference is ex-
perienced when using the detuning
coil without losing the signal of the
station being worked
Use Of the Choke.
Passing on to the choke coil in the
lead to the plate connection of the de-
tector tube, we have come to an i'm
portant necessity. This choke is to
prevent any radio frequency current
from traversing that circuit which is
part of the audio frequency connec-
tion and is there for the same reason
that you place radio frequency
choke coil in your plate connection in
a transmitting circuit. The main coil
of the circuit has four ends; the start
of the coil is the antenna connection,
the first tap is the ground connection,
the next tap goes to the tuning con-
the grid condenser. 1t Is apparent
that if we provide four binding posts
we can change our coil as often as we
wish, which will disclose the reason
for the term, "All-Wave Tuner"
There is no reasonable limit to which
you can tune without any other trou-
BILE than to change the coil to the one
desired for the wave-length range.
This brings us to the tuning con-
denser. One should bear In mind that
this must be a real condenser for

Riuers Garry Salt
Into the Ocean

At first it strikes one as strange
that, although the sea must originally
have been formed of distilled water
that is, CONCEALED watery vapor-and
though all the rivers that flow into it,
estimated to amount in the aggregate
to $500 cubic miles of water every
year, are fed exclusively by rainfall,
which is also distilled water. it should
nevertheless be. extremely brackish,
very salt indeed In the tropics and
less salt at the poles.
Yet it is chiefly the rivers that ac-
count for the saltness of the sea. 1t
is estimated that they carry some
thing like 1O0,0O0,OO0 tons of saline
matter into the ocean every year and,
further, that the ocean holds in sus-
pension no less than 100000, 100000
tons of salt, sufficient quantity, if
extracted, to cover the dry surface of
the earth to depth of 400 feet, says
London Tit-Bits.
1t is believed that 90.000,000 years
have been required for the sea to at
tain its present saltness.

Selecting Proper Wire
an Important Feature

Wire for winding inductances comes
in many sizes and different insus sions
There arc single and double c,tton-
covered wires, usually listed as sec.
and dec, respectively. And single
and double silk-covered wire-s.s.c and
dsc There is also a wire with all
enamel covering. Any of these wires
mary be used for coils, but with slight
~ different results.
The enamel-covered wire takes up
the least space for given length, but
it also has the disadvantage of having
the greatest distributed capacity,
which means that coil of it would
not tune, sharply. In regard to space,
the siik-covered wire comes next. This
wire is very good, but rather expen-
siye. The wire with cotton covering
has the greatest bulk, but is quite
cheap and efficient. and most coils are
wound with it.
The matter of the double or single
covering is one that must be deter
mined by the particular case, depend

Battery Charger
| Is Easy to Make
Small Toy Transformer and
Double Filament Auto
Bulb Are Needed.
BY GEORGE scHucHMAN

Here is a homemade "B" battery
charger that will prove welcome to
those who wish TO charge their own
storage "B" batteries. This charger
operates on the same principle as the
well-known Tungar rectifier
All that is required is a small toy
transformer and double filament
headlight bulb of the type used on low
priced automobiles. This bulb has two
filaments, the smaller of which should
be burned out. This can be done by
connecting ten or more volts across
the proper terminals. AS this bulb has
two contacts on the bottom and the
third is made to the brass shell, the
wrong filament can very easily be
burned out by mistake. The brass
shell is the common terminal for both
filaments. The other terminal of the
smaller filament can be found by con-
Meeting one terminal of six-volt stor-
age battery to the shell and touching
the other storage battery terminal to

good results. There are number of
ways connect the rotary plates to the
grounded part of the circuit, and if
the condenser used has insulating end
plates use a shield. This is not needed
with some Of the late types of con-
| denSerS, as the end plates are a part
of the rotating element and are in the
ground part of the circuit, thereby
eliminating capacity effects entirely.
The variable condenser in the plate
circuit must be a good one as far as
its resistance is concerned. since it
has the plate battery potential across
1t as applied to the detectOr tube. Ii
hard tubes are used this may amount
to 40 volts or more; a bad condenser
will, therefore, allow current flow
which in time will run down your
"B" batteries. Its size is also II plates,
although you may deviate from this
size if you have a larger one on hand,
but do not use one with more than
IL plates for tuning purposes.
The Plate Choke Coil.
Not all of us have the tools needed
to make a really neat coil. In most
cases good looks do not add TO the
result value of coil, therefore take
an ordinary-sized drinking glass. which
should be smooth of surface so The
coil may be slipped off. One that is
about 21a inches in diameter will do.
Wind this with 75 turns of No. "a
dec wire in tumble fashion. Slip
off and wind few turns of thread
around the coil turns so that it will
stay whole. If you must have a
neater coil, wind it to the equivalent
of the one described. Connect it as
close to the plate connection on the
socket as you can, consistent with
good mounting practice. This coil
should not be mounted near any of
the other coils.
The Detuning Coil-Around the
same drinking glass wind, with the
same size wire, so turns, with loop
at every ten turns for tap. Again
in this case, make the coil in any
fashion you desire, as long as it re-
mains the equivalent of the one de-
scribed. This coil is mounted on the
tuner panel near the antenna connec-
ton. 1t is connected to a switch lever
with six switch points, the lever being
connected to the antenna connection
of the tuning coil. The antenna wire
Is connected to the beginning of the de-
tuning coil, which is connected TO the
first switch point.
The Tuning Coils.
First we will assume that the re-
quired range for tuning is to be $50
to 220 meters, so around the same
drinking glass we will wind. with No.
16 double cotton covered wire in
tumble fashion five turns, making a
three-inch loop for tap; then we con-
tinue with 10 turns, making another
loop for tap; then five more turns
and the coil is finished. Slip the coil
off the glass and wind few turns of
thread around 1t and connect the
starting end of the coil TO binding
post No. i on the front Of the panel:
connect the first tap to No. 2, the sec
ond to No. 3 and the end of the coil
to No. 4. You will notice that there
is to l turn ratio of antenna to
ground and grid to ground. Maintain
this in any other coil you may make.

ment plug is inserted in its place. The
two wires from the plug are run to a
S.PD.T. switch, which is in turn con-
nected to the battery. When the
switch is thrown to the left, the bat
terry is out of the circuit and when it
is thrown to the right and any lights
are being used, all of the current is
flowing through the battery and
charges it at the rate of current flow.
The lights will be slightly dimmed, as
the battery uses part of the current
that would ordinarily go to light the
lamps If one 100-watt lamp is being
used, the battery is being charged at
about one ampere. The battery will
consume approximately eight watts,
which is deducted from that consumed
by the lamp and will consequently
cause the lamp to be slightly dimmed
which, however, is no Inconvenience,
as it is hardly noticeable.

bottom of the bulb. The filament that
burns dimly is the one that should
be burned out.
The connections for the charger are
clearly shown in the diagram. A 10
or 20-watt lamp is connected in the
battery circuit to limit the current
flow. A larger lamp should not be
used, for then the wire acting as the
plate will melt down rapidly, thereby
increasing the distance. between it and
the filament until the rectifier ceases
to function. When the charger is oper-
ating correctly, the 110-volt lamp will
glow dimly.-Radio News

Charge Battery at Same
Time House Lights Used

Wherever there is commercial direct
current, it is very simple matter to
charge storage batteries. If the bat
terry is charged directly from the line,
a resistance must be used in series to
cut down and control the current flow
This resistance usually takes the form
to any extra expense to charge the bat
terry? Why not charge it at the same
time the house lights are used and
thus save money? This is very SIM
pie matter If the scheme shown in the
diagram is followed. A fuse block

Plans to Trap Weeuil

Hudson Maxim, inventor, recalls
that the Indians used to scent their
traps with the odor Of the female
beaver. This attracted the males and
The sense of smell which is extremely
keen in insects guides them to the
discovery of their mates, he says.
For instance the male silkworm can
detect the female by smell at a dis
tance of two miles. He suggests that
a scent, prepared from the bodies of
female boil weevil moths or perhaps
made synthetically, might be used TO
lure males of the species TO traps
or poisons.

spacing of the wires and the mechan-
ical strength that is needed.
The size of the wire depends upon
its use. In the wire gauge that ia
used for copper wire, the higher the
number the smaller the wire. For
coils that are TO be inserted in the
aerial circuit, the size should be pref
erably between Is and %. In the sec
ondary and other circuits, the size
may range from 20 to &c. Smaller
wire than this would reduce the eff
ciency.-Radio Digest.

Will blind confidence lead you

This is the experience of the average American,
United States Life Tables,
1920, indicate

For the average person, health
physical freedom and full vigor-ex-
tends only from age l8 to 81. Then
the slump. After 40, earnings fall off
rapidly. What do these startling facts
(taken from the United States Life
Tables, 1920) mean for youi
1t is time to check up. 1t is time to
take stock of the present, and face the
future with open eyes. Blind faith in
the power of the human body to absorb
punishment has failed miserably. Un-
wise eating, stimulated nerves, Sleep
lessness; disregard of the simplest
laws of health; the lashing of the
overweight body to new exertions by
the use of drugs-physical decay be-
ginning at age 31l This is the tragic
chronicle.
Nature provides a danger signal
fatigue-to warn when the body needs
rest. Certain drugs have the power to
deaden the fatigue signal. One of the
most common of these drugs is caffein
"a drug classified as a poison. The
average cup of coffee contains from
IA to 3 grains of caffein-a dose
equal to that often administered by
physicians in cases of heart failure.
Caffein, by deadening the danger
signal of fatigue, appears to give new
strength. Actually, this strength is
robbed from the body's own reserve,
stored up for Efe's emergencies.
Coffee contains no nourishment. It's
only virtues as beverage, are its
warmth and flavor. A good, hot,
drugless drink is a benefit with every
meal

To take French leave is to take
leave without permission. 1t means
leaving a person or place without bid
ding goodby to anyone. The express

custom also had some vogue in Eng

Paris. According to the generally ac-

social gathering takes leave of the
host or hostess. But according to the
fad referred to person leaving early

ing word to anybody. The French
saw certain advantages in the new
custom. They maintained that just
because one person wanted to leave
early was no excuse for his disturb

servative English society people
thought the French fad was outrage

Watch Contact on Tubes

Often the contacts underneath the
vacuum tubes become corroded and the
circuit is not properly completed. 1t
is a good plan to sandpaper the ends
of the contacts occasionally, thus
keeping them bright and shiny, so that
they make perfect electrical contact
