Start That Boy Of Yours
Building u Set.

This article is for the trea surer of
the family, the one who holds the
purse strings and TO whom all appeals
for money must be made.
When that boy or girl in your fam
lily asks YOU for the wherewithal to
buy the parts necessary to make re-
Cciver don't turn him down on the
stand that it will be money thrown
away.
There is hardly an investment that
YOU can make that will bring you
bigger returns than a radio set con
structed by that boy of yours.
In the first place it will give the
boy an interest that will do him more
good than any amount Of running
around with a lot of other boys and
getting into a lot of mischief. 1t will
provide him with something that will
keep him at home evenings while he
i building it and keep him home
afterward listening to Ii and working
IL Tor the rest of the family. Radio
Is no longer a plaYthing. 1t is a vital
fa actor in the everyday life Of millions
Of people.
Amusement for Family.
With il the whole family will be
able to listen i'll on the musical and
educational programs that are sent
ont daily by the large number Of
iroadcasting stations now in opertion.
And don't think for a minute that
that boy or girl will have any diff.
Guilty in making a really good set. one
that will be every bit as good as many
of those for which YOU will have to
pay a bigger price than the amount
it costs you for the parts.
Most of the boys are getting instruc-
lions in both elementary and high
schools on the use of tools. and YOU
would be surprised at the skill with
which many a 14-year-old boy csrn
build cabinets, desks. tabourrts and
radio Sete
ii YOU haven't boy, Just throw
inside your business cares for a few
evenings and become tinkering boy
again. It will do YOU good and will
freshen YOU up by taking your mind
from your work.
Radio Great Education.
There Is no education like that
which is obtained when the process of
education is dished up in the form
of Il game. Making u radio set and
operating it Is an education, and hte
best part of it is that it is an interest
Ing paStime.
Remember that this Is an electrical
and mechanical age and that the inter-
est that is worked up in things cleo
lrical and mechanical will be of con
siderable use not only to him but to
You when something goes wrong with
the car or with the doorbell or the
many other mechanical and electrical |
appliances of the home.
Just a word of caution. however, in
The manner in which his education
should be begun. Do not allow him

CLOSE WATCHKEP

Federal Departments Con-

Official Washington is keeping n
close watch on the proceedings at the
hearing now being conducted In Ne"
York by the Federal Trade CommlS-
sion into the alleged radio monopoly.
The offices of the Department or
Justice, the Navy Department and the
Department of Commerce are Watch-
Ing the proceedings closely, for, II II ls
found that n monopoly exists, IA ls
alleged among the leading radio ana
electrical interests of the lnlted
States. IT will mean special propieihs
for each OF these departments.
The first action taken would be the
institution of antitrust proceedings
by the Department of Justice against
the corporations cited for restraint OF
trade For this reason the Attorney
General has dispatched perSoHal
representative to the hearing anu ~
now, as in the past. assisting the Fed
eral Trade Commission in its lnVeSu-
cation.
The Navy Department. likewise, Is
represented at the hearing. since II
has been repeatedly claimed that II
was at the suggestion of the Govern
ment, principally the Navy Depart
ment, that the Radio Corporation "l
America was formed at the close OF
the war.
Although not as vitally Interested IN
the outcome of the hearings as TN
Navy and Justice Departments. the
Department of Commerce. because oi
it's direct connection with radio broad
casting. also is watching closely the
proceedings in New York
IT is generally believed that the
hearing may be long drawn out. BE

Commission had compiled immense
quantities of information and statistics
bearing on the connections ana agree
ments that exist between the corpora
tions cited i'm the monopoly complaint.
Virtually all of this mass ot data

plicated set. His school training is
taken up step by step from the very
elementary subjects up through the
more difficult phases of the subjects
which he is studying.
If you attempt to teach a boy
algebra before he has a fair concep-
ton Of simple arithmetic, you will not

him subjects for which he is not fitted.
The same holds true in radio. Do
not make the mistake of letting him
attempt to build or 6-tube set right
Off the bat. Make him start with a

and work him up gradually to the
larger sets. II you use care in select

sockets, condensers, transformers, etc,
used in the small set can later be used
In the larger set.
The experiment is we'll worth trying.

mental capacity You will be getting a

not at all impressed, while others see
promise in the embryo artist, but
realize that she will need several years
more of study and experience before
her recitals can be expected to reach
a profitable basis. but some Junior

SHORTLY after I received a letter
- from the Metropolitan Opera Co.
in New York saying that their Phila-
delphia representative had heard NE
sing at the Bellevue-Stratford, and
would I not call at the opera house
for a trial with view to a possible en-

full that with great regret l felt COM
PEELED to discontinue my operate ca
reer for regular concert work. With
the experience Of the operate world
as a background, my recitals all over
the country seemed very successful.
If a girl has as much talent as the
average successful singer must have.
and enough money behind her to
further her ambition in the way
customary in the musical world, what
would it cost her? Here is a. supposi-
titious instance:
She has a voice, and she has had
perhaps some study in her home. She
has sung in the church choir and at
receptions, and most likely on public
occasions. She can read music, has
learned a number of songs, and is
more or less accustomed to public
singing. With this quite usual begin
