Alas. she is not content to be
lone OF a crowd In his affections,
but seeketh to fill his whole life
and overfloweth into the outer
most corners Of his pastimes.. For,
so long as a woman Ioveth one
man, she can >see no other man!
Thus, doth she lose her Roise,
and become lop-sided with the
weight of her own emotions.
But a MAN is ambidextrous, in
all his ways.
Lo, he carryeth his parcels in
both arms, and distributeth his
burdens evenly in both hands, so
that~he may LOSE nothing.
He scattereth his interest over
many diversions and spreadeth
his love impartially over many
damsels.
As he rejoiceth in golf in the
morning, and in pinochle in the
afternoon, and in dancing in the
evening, so doth he delight To
dine with flapper upon Monday,
and with highbrow upon Tues
day, and with a vamp upon Wed
nesday.
For, would it not be selfish of
him to concentrate all Of his heart
and his affections upon ONE wom-
an, whilst there are plenty to
go around. Verify, he percievetH
no reason why he should not
divide his love and share his favors,
and his time and his kisses

And NO man accounteth him.

TWO love affairs upon hand at
the same time!
Go to! A woman is a specialist.
But man is an ALTRUIST; and
his is the community spirit.
Yes, even as he shifteth the
weight OF his golf sticks from one
arm to another, SO doth he grace
fully shift his attentions and his
affections from one woman to an
other.
Thus, doth he ease the burden
OF a blonde upon the one hand,
by balancing a brunette upon the
other; and the heayiness of o
serious love affair upon the right
hand by the lightness of flirta-
ton upon the left hand.
For, verify, so long as he

Two Hours a Week
Licenses Issued
To BrOadcaster

A class B license, good for only two
hours a week. is the rather novel ex-
pedient adopted by the Department Of
Commerce to squeeze another broad
casting station into the congested
region of the most desirable wave
lengths.
The unusual license was issued to
station WJAZ of the Zenith Radio
Corporation at Mount Prospect, H.,
and permits that station to go on the
air every Thursday evening from 10
to IL o'clock on 1924 meters. using
500 watts of power. The wave
length Ia that of station kOA at Den
yer. which is silent every Thursday
evening from 10 to -, and has con-
sented to permit the Zenith station to
share its wave length.
The revival of the call letters Of
WJAZ Is another interesting episode
in the checkered career Of the Zenith
station. Originally one of the pioneer
class Il stations, WJAZ esta blished a
wide reputation with its hroadcasts
from a Chicago hotel. Later the hotel
arranged for its own station. WJAZ
received a class a license, and later
had its call letters changed to WAX
on the 26S-meter wave length and
100 watts of power.

How to Choose Your Circuit for the
Set building Contest. Part IL

After the crystal. the next step on
the ladder leads us to the singletube
set The average single-tube set no
matter what circuit is used. can usu-
ally be built without much toruble and
can be relied upon to give good re-
suits. The reason for this is due to
the fact that one-tube circuits are sim
pie for the most part. The number Of
parts used to make it are few and the
job of placing the parts to best ad-
vantage on the panel and Dashboard
and wiring them together Is a com.
paratively simple operation.
The family Of one-tube circuits is A
large one. I Will mention a few mere
ly to freshen up tho memories of fans
who have gone on to the more compli-
Gated circuits and have forgotten the
old staudbys.
Simplest Set.
The on-regenerative one-tube set is
the simplest of the one-tube sets Ii
can he built with wide variety Of
tuning elements. either Of the con-
duCtively coupled or inductively cou-
pied type. Single and double slide tun-
ing coils are more or less passe but
the old variocoupler and variometer
still do valiant duty in such circuits
The regenerative one-tube set using
either the tfckIer coll or tuned plate
method for regeneration is still very
popular and continues to hold it's high
place in the line of efficient one.tube
sets The tickler-coil type can he made
in a variety of ways.
The one in which the stator winding
of variocoupler performs the func-
ton of antenna and grid coil combined
and the rotor winding serves as the
ticltIer coil is one of the most COM
mon and most efficient type of re-
generative circuit. While It's radiating
qualities have outlawed II to some ex-
tent. its high efficiency still makes it
popular in sections where the inter
ference problem is not vital factor
A Selective Circuit.
The three-circuit variety of regener
ative tuner. in which a coil of a few
turns. used as the primary or antenna
coil, is wound close to another coil on
the same tube, the second coil serving
as the grid coil with the rotor of the
variocoupler serving as the ticker
eliminates a considerable amount of
the trouble from radiation and sharp
ems up the tuning. thus making this
type of circuit more selective and
moro popular than the single circuit
type.
The Cockaday four-circuit tuner. a
audion, was once all the rage and still
larity.

Wednesday night Mr.. Smith said
the antics of the body of water were
stranger than ordinary. At the time
of the earthquake a year ago he no
ticed strange rumblings exactly
similar to those which were audible
two days ago and at the time of the
quake the noises were heard for
period of about six hours before the
earth actually shook The lighting
effect of the lake was the same We'd

Quake a year ago and the two facts

that another quake was sure 10

A Boston newspaper man was
called and although he took no took
no little interest in the matter they
could offer no explanation. 1t SO
happened that the observatory at
Harvard university was open at the
time and the observer there listened
to the recitation of the strange
phenomena intently. He said that no
record of an earth tremor had peen
made from this part of the country
but if there were one he would mas
ten to acquaint Mr.. Smith with the
fact.
But as vet there has been no

Welfare Council
To Hold Meeting
Early This Evening

4 meeting Of the Waterville Well
fare council will be held at the
Chamber of Commerce rooms at 7.30
o'clock this evening and it is hoped
that every organization in the city
that is doing charity work win be
represented. Those present this eve

say how much work the Twill be able
to undertake this year. Already
number of organizations has prepar-
ed lists of the families they plan to
aid this Christmas and by having
these lists on file at the Chamber Of
foe much duplication of efforts is to
be avoided.
Yesterday the list of needy cases
at the Chamber was considerably in
creased and 1t is plain that there is
ample opportunity for charitable
work this year. The need for warm
clothing is larger than usual and all
garments may be taken to Miss Bella
Pitcher. the city health nurse. at the
city building, who will see to their
distribution.
