MOUNTING OF VACUUM
TUBES REQUIRES CARE

The vacuum, tubes Nnow on the
market Are rather delicate instru.
ments and are, subject to micro.
phonic noise unless mounted cor
rectly. This is easily accomplished
by fastening the sockets on sponge
rubber.
But the mistake the fans make in
doing this is to leave lot Of rubber
In the center OF the socket which
makes connection to the tube
prongs. This causes a high resist
afice path for the radio frequency
currents and lowers the efficiency Of
the set to a great extent Be sure
to remove the rubber in the center
Of the socket.

Dill TalIks on His Bin.

Senator Dill Of Washington. who
has introduced a bill in the Senate
ito permit free broadcasting of any
individual piece of music, bases his,
contention primarily on the fact
that broadcasting is a public service.
Il think the writers and pro-
ducers of music are entitled to n
special fee or royalty from everyone
who purchases copies of their
music" he said yesterday. but
what am objecting to ana trying
to correct is the charging of fees
for broadcasting this music by radio
stations that can make no profit
thereby. A great many newspapers
and public organizations own and
operate broadcasting stations, large
" as matter of public service. and
their only return for this broadcast
ing is the. advertising that the rem
dering of such public service gives
them"
Broadcast programs. Senator Dill
said, are heard far back in the
country districts, miles from any
city, by literally hundreds of thou
sands of persons who would never
hear these musical productions
otherwise.
Hearings on Senator Dill's bill
will be begun before the committee
on patents, April, 3.
Ray Miller, who conducts one of
New York's most popular dance or
cfestras. has announced that his
terms for broadcasting are $500 an
hour. And the business broadcast
ing stations say they want about
the same amount to put Miller on
the afr.
We suppose that we should now
demand at least $500 an hour for
listening to him.

With APOLOGIES to kitty"

After the radio page had gone to
press yesterday, we realized too
late that we had failed to mention
what to us was one of the. most
beautiful numbers OF the Capitol
Theater program Sunday night.
We mean the debut solo by
Roxie's new artist, Nine. Katherine
Reiner
The solo was unannounced ex-
cept in Rockies early introduction
and its conclusion was passed by
without the burst of applause that
we fully expected.
The other number from the stage
of the Capitol Theater The Bar
carolle" by the sextet also was un-
usually brilliant.

GREAT NORTHERN NET INCOME
SHRIHkS; BUSINESS INCREASES
Analysis by Chairman L. w. Hill Shows Charge to
Public for Transportation Less Than Half as
Much as Operating Expenses.

St. Paul, March IL, 1924. Employees
of the Great Northern Railway were
paid nearly half of every dollar received
by the transeontinental system from its
patrons in 1923, it is disclosed in a state
ment by Chairman Louis w. Hill of the
board of directors. Officers were paid
only one quarter of a cent out of each
dollar and the 10000 owners received
only SIS on each share of the capital stock
from the business transacted during the
year.
Wages to more than 10000 employees
constituted the largest item of expendi-
ture, the employees payroll requiring
10 l-2 cents of every dollar received"
said Chairman Hill in his analysis of how
the Great Northern dollar is spent.
Fuel and other material took % Sd
cents more of each dollar received from
our patrons last year. Taxes, rentals
and interest payments required 16 IL
cents. The 5 percent annual dividend
and expenditures for improvements nee
essary to provide the adequate transport
tation facilities needed by the public,
took, IL IL cents.
"Great Northern trains last year haul
ed a record volume Of freight tonnage
but the huge cost of doing business con-
sumed the bulk of the The
great difficulties which the railroads en-
counter in their struggle to earn sufli-
cient to pay expenses and continue the
expansion of their facilities to keep pace
with the steadily growing transportation
needs of the territory they serve, are
apparent by a glance at how the railroad
dollar is spent.
The Great Northern's operating cost
has increased IS percent since 1912, while
its charge to the public for %transporta-
ton has increased only IS percent. And
the annual return to the owners decreas-
ed % percent during that period, the
cost of operation having increased so
much more than the increase in the

PROSPECTS FOR FAIR Asso-
CATION ARE PROMISING

Attorney Meeker and Mr.. J. B.
Bilrk, OF Imperial Nebr.. were here
last Friday comforting with the mem
bers of the Phillips County Fair
Board and the County Commissioners
on the forming of a fair association
taking in the principal county fairs
of southwestern Nebraska and North
eastern Colorado.
The local officials are heartily in
favor of forming this association and
it is probable that 1t will be formed
this spring in time to be of benefit
to the fairs this fall.
The object of The association will
be to date the fairs so that none will
compete with the other and so that
the racing men can start with their
horses at the first fair and take in
each fair in the association without
having to make long jumps between
them.
1t was found last fall that on ac,
count OF the late date OF our fair, 1t
was difficult to get the racing men
her. with thsir horses as they cannot
ship long distances for cnly one meet.
Also that on account of the late date,
they were taking in other races and
some of the earlier fairs were crowded
with horsas. II the association is
formed the races in this section OF
the country will draw their share OF
the horses and they can start at I'm
periai and make the entire circuit
without any long jumps, taking in the
race meets at Holyoke. Sterling. Ft
Morgan, Akron, Wray, Benkleman and
McCook in rapid succession The
dates of the fairs in the association
will be fixed so us none will conflict
with the others.
