Now connect the A terminal of
rheostat with the negative ter
minal of socket II and the negative
+ terminal of socket II.
The B terminal of tuner should
be connected with the ground post 2.
The c terminal of tuner should
be connected with the G terminal of
socket II.
Now connect the p terminal of
transformer IL with the p terminal
of socket H.
The c. terminal of transformer IL
should be connected with the G ter

Rules for Connections.
If you are using the same type
of fixed condensers 13 and Is, crystal
detector Is and transformer IA you
can make the necessary connections
between the B terminal of crystal
detector IS, the B terminal of con-
denser 16 and the = terminal of
transformer IA by slipping the B ter
minal of condenser 16 and the 3
terminal of crystal detector Is over
the binding post terminal of trans
former Ii and Tightening down the
nut on those terminals. If the parts
used do not admit of this method of
making the connection 1t will be nee
essary for you to connect together
the B terminal of condenser Is, the
terminal of transformer IA and
the terminal of crystal detector 15.
In the same way II you cannot
make a similar connection between
the A terminal of condenser 13 and
the G terminal of transformer IA you
will have to connect those terminals
together with piece of wire.
Next connect the A terminal of
transformer IS. the A terminal of con-
denser Is and the B terminal of trans
former IA.
The A terminal of transformer IL
should be connected with the G. ter
minal of transformer IA.
The G. terminal of transformer IS
should be connected with the A ter
minal of crystal detector Is.
Now you can mount your two con-
densers, S and Z, in place and make
the necessary connections from their
terminals to the other parts of the
circuits.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PHILADELPHIA, December 19.-
That the whole nation may rejoice to-
gether in the ringing out of the old
year and the coming of the new year
and in the registering of one more year
of the splendor of American inde-
pendence, the ringing of the great old
independence Hall bell, in Philadelphia,
at midnight, December 81, will be
broadcast. Arrangements have been
made by radio station WOO, operated
by the Wanamaker store, which broad
cast the bell for the first time last
year.
This custom has been observed in
Philadelphia with impressive ceremo-
nies every year since the first great
bell proclaimed the American inde-
pendence las years ago. In accord
ance with prevailing custom. on New
Year eve, even in bitter weather, the
pc ople of Philadelphia have for a
century and half assembled in Inde-
pendenCe Square. Sometimes there
are as many as twenty to thirty thou
sand in the crowds packed in the
square and in the streets of approach,
making merry and awaiting the
stroke of midnight on the great bell
1t is one of the most remarkable fes-
tai sOsnes in the world.
Three Bells Used.
This year, at Is minutes before
midnight, Mayor Freeland w. Ken
drick speaking into the microphonc,
will tell the story of the three great
bells that have occupied the Inde-
peudence Hall belfry. The first of
these was that which rang out the
proclamation of Anne rican indepen-
Ccnce on July 4, 1916. AS is well
Known, this bell was cracked when
rclling for the death of Chief Justice
John Marshall in 1885 and has ever
'iince been silent. The Liberty Bell
was replaced in the belfry by new
bell. which eventually, in 1877, was
removed to Germantown Town Hall.
The present bell has occupied the
tower since 1877.
Mayor Kendrick will conclude his
address just before midnight. At the
precise hour II o'clock will be struck
on the bell by clockwork, and imme
diately after the bellringers. strik-
ing by hand, will begin to sound the
14S years of American independence.
The whole ceremony, the address by
the mayor the IL strokes of mid
night and the 14S strokes proclaim
ing the age of the Nation. the shouts
and cheers of the merry-makers, all
will be broadcast, and the whole Ma
tion will have opportunity to listen-tn
on the New Year signal from the
Nations birthplace.

The rotary plates, terminal B of
condenser s, should be connected with
the wire that goes to terminal A of
transformer IA, thus connecting the
rotary plates of the condenser with
the negative side of the filament cir

Rule for Finding Kilooyeles.

Radio fans read much today con-
cerning the "kilocycle frequency" at
which a station transmits. To reduce
wave lengths to kilocycles, all that
is necessary is to divide 100000 by the
wave length. The result will be the
frequency In kilocycles. The term
kilocycles means thousand cycles. On
the other hand. to find the wave
length frequency all that is neces-
sary is to divide 800, 900 by the kilo-
cycle frequency.

jack 10, the B terminal Of trans
former IL and the positive B battery,
terminal 90.
The A and B battery connections
should be made as indicated in the
panel and Dashboard layout
The tuning of the set is very sim
pie. The only really critical control
is that necessary with condenser 5.
The adjustment obtained with the
two other controls-namely. with con-
densers 7 and tuner 3-serve to
sharpen the tuning and increase the
signal strength, but the adjustment
is not very critical.
A little practice will soon make you
proficient In tuning and you will soon
acquire the ability to tune in the dis
tant stations.
If you require strong loud speaker
volume you can add any Of the ampli-
fer units which / have described in
previous articles.

How to Build an Efacient Two-Tube
Reflex DE- Set-Part W.


Reflex DE- Set-Part ".
To simplify the wiring of the receiver
mount all the parts except the two
variable condensers. 5 and Z, and you
will then be ready for the wiring.
If you leave these condensers un-
mounted until after you have wired
the first part of the receiver you will
eliminate a lot of the trouble you
would otherwise have in trying to
work IN inaccessible places
Begin the wiring by connecting the
terminal of switch with the an
tenna terminal l by a wire running
along the Dashboard and then up
toward the antenna terminal.
Then connect this wire with the d
terminal OF tuner 8, the A terminal
of tuner 8, terminal 20 and terminal
21.
Then connect together in the order
named with a single piece of wire
terminal B of rheostat 6, terminal
A of switch and the A terminal of
transformer IA. The B terminal of
fixed condenser 13 should be connect
ed with the wire just mentioned.
Then connect terminal %, the posi-
tive F. terminal of socket II, the B
terminal of condenser 19 and the posi-
tive f terminal of socket IT.

HINT FOR "B" BATTERIES.
Never Test Them With Pliers to
Short Circuit.

Never test 'B" batteries with a pair
of pliers by short circuiting them to
see II you get a spark. This would
be ruinous to even a new battery.
Use high-resistance Yoltmeter
and even then leave the voltmeter
connected only long enough to get &
reading. A 2215 volt "B" batter
should be dispensed with and replaced
with a new one when the voltage
drops as low as l61a volts

Just why Madame Lubovska calls
her institution an American" bal.
let Is rather difficult to say. The
first half Of the program was
nothing but rhythmic dancing
Greciah In nationality-w only
one Yankee composer, Seymour
Smith, represented. We got every.
thing from Beethoven to Claude
Debussy, including three Chopin
and three Schubert numbers.
OF the dances themselves, Lubov-
slEa,s own offering, Death As Vic
tory" proved only a new interpre.
tation Of an old theme. But nicely
and impressively done. And the
little girl who enacted the elf IN
the second Of q Greek suite relieved
the monotony Of a duh beginning
with a flash Of color and no little
verve.
One American Number.
Opening the second half Of the
program came the only real Amer
lean dance Husking Bee" with
half dozen international com
posers contributing to the score.
Chief among them was Percy
Granger, an Australian. Here, in
a word, Lubovsla succeeded in
landing strongly with a snatch Of
the genuine. How this number ever
got on an otherwise League of
Nations menu-well, who can say?
Vogue" breath of satire, by
Lubovsl1a herself, reminded one
strangely Of the Swedish Evan
Grandin, who stirred and enchanted
some months ago in Cole Porter's
Within the Quota Then, in sue
cession, came bits Of terpsichorean

Egypt, finishing With pretty poor
Aztec number, in which LubovsIea
did solo sun dance, but reminding
one not at all Of anything Indian.
European Influences.
America needs an American bal
let. Al ballet that stands for the
national life and historic back
ground Of this, one Of the most
fascinating lands on the map. But
1t. hardly seems likely that LubOv-
slxa's initial offering win lead to
anything more than an initial offer
ing.
Frankly, there is q whale of
lot to be said about ballet posi-
bilities in America, but / am con-
WINGED that until European tradi.
tiOns are thrown aside and some
enterprising dance director plunges
into the spray and fume Of honest
American life for material, such
ventures as the National American
