Radio Patriotism Is
DISPLAYED bv Mexican.

DO you stand when you hear the
music OF 'sThe Star-Spangled Ban
ner" picked up by your radio receiving
set?
Six Mexicans did during the inter-
national tests when WGY broadcast
the national anthem from Schenectady.
They were located In small town at
the foot of the Ajusco mountains. near
the volcano OF that name and within
sight Of the ever-smoking Popocatepetl
and the snow-crowned peak of Ixtac-
chihuati.
"Your concert was so clear, with
such volume, that l cannot help writing
you this card" wrote FforencIs J. Ia
mudio. you could easily follow the
music Of each instrument. The national
anthem, at my request, was heard by
all standing as homage to nation that
has such a station as yours. New

as Battery Be min

The word voltmeter, as defined by
the technIcian, is an instrument for
measuring the voltage, or pressure, ex-
listing In given circuit or part there
Of To the nontechnical radio fan a
voltmeter means something quite diff
ferent, In all probability merely an in
strumenf for ascertaining the condi-
ton of his storage or "B" batteries.
Every good radio installation should
have voltmeter, as 1t will prevent the
vacuum tubes burning out premature
ly because OF excessive voltage applied
TO them. A voltmeter also facilitates
the returning Of distant station in
that 1t will check up the action of a
rheostat which often plays very I'M
portant role.
Although vOltmeter having a range
OF from one to ten volts Is essential
to one who Is DESTROYS of getting the
most out of his set. 1t Is seldom used
because of Its expensiveness. The
real fan would not hesitate to pur-
chase such device for several dollars.
but the trouble Is that voltmeter Is
of little use on receiving set. II 1t
be installed and connected across the
battery 1t will tell the closed circuit
voltage of that storage battery and
nothing more. 1t will not tell the eff
fective voltage applied to the vacuum
tubes, since the rheostat varies this
greatly.
II you have a three-tube set, 1t will
be necessary to employ voltmeter
for each tube and one for the battery,
which is not only prohibItive because
of cost. but also because of space. 1t
would be ridiculous proposition to
have four volunteers on panel, as
the set would look like power house
and not like an instrument with which
to listen TO broadcast programs.
However, If a single voltmeter is

The connections for such a unit are

extreme left it will be out of the cir
cult. On the second contact point

ton of the storage battery, the third
contact point will give the condition
of the first tube, the fourth the sec
ond tube and the fifth the third tube.
The entire switching arrangement,
including high-class voltmeter, Is a
well worth while investment as you
will be able to burn your tubes at the
rated voltage and thus prolong their
life considerably.
If you desire to construct the unit,
you should first carefully decide just
where to mount the parts on the pan

and mount 1t.
Directly beneath the voltmeter
mount the switch lever and the con-
tact points and stops. If you are
handy with tools 1t might be a good
idea to engrave the panel where the
different contacts are. For instance,
the one on the extreme left is "off,"
the next one is bat" the next list"

STILL ANOTHER
FUN FEST AT
THE GAYETY

Burlesque at it's best is being
offered Gayety patrons this week
by Barney Gerard in his new
show, featuring Joseph K. Wat
son and Will H. Cohan. Reunited
after separation of two years.
these two eminent comedians are
again seen in their familiar roles
of Slitkin and Slotkin. This time,
however, they are Hreal estators, :"
and the clever lines written by
Watson enable them to be con-
vulsingly funny. Watson's mono
logue on historical subjects was
side-splitter.
Gladys Darling won instant
favor with her songs and dances,
while her delineation of a tough
girl was fine. Ada Lum has a
voice of pleasing quality and her
song numbers went over big.
Olive Declare was applauded for
her share in the entertainment.
Diamond and Mailman, billed
as the Dandy Steppers," and
Rastus Wilson, a colored boy,
stepped out to the evident delight
of the audience. Bob Manning
has a. good voice and should have
a larger share of the song num-
bers. Casey Jones got his usual
good hand.
The show is handsomely dressed
and the scenic and lighting effects
show Gerard's careful attention
to details. He is said to have
personally picked the chorus and
we will say for him that he did
q good tob.-H. w.

WASHED
AND SEARCHED
AT MUTUAL

Hurry Up is a little different
from the general run Of burlesquc
that we have seen at the Mutual
and considerably better.
There is less OF slapstick and
vulgarity and more real comedy.
For once the chorus took a back
seat while the comedians held the
spotlight, and judging from the en-
thusiasm shown by the audience
this change was not altogether dis
pleasing.
Harry. Pepper is g real comedian.
He has way of putting over"
even the oldest wheezes in a way
that makes them uproariousiy
funny. Harry Brennan, who acts
as his foil, unearths a number of
good laughs, too.
The stage settings for a change
are really pleasant to look upon,
tastefully arranged with nice light.

Dancing and singing are not up
to the mark, however, although the
girls go through few ensembles
