dealers have solved this problem by
Offering to let you try out various
sets until you find the right one.
They'll charge you five or ten dollars
for an aerial, but that's only right.
And you'll have five or ten times
that much fun out of it even if you
don't decide on one right away"
But is an aerial necessary? Won't
some Of these machines operate on a
loop, or whatever you call it?''
1T depends where you live and how
much of the worlds broadcasting you
want to pick up" l said. "An inside
aerial, whether it's rugged up in the
room or concealed in the machine,
cuts down your reception about one
third. This wouldn't make any diff
ference to any one living right near

I'd advise getting all you can get.
A loops handy in an apartment

your case it's different. Put up a good

Old DR.. Johnson made men stare

shabby clothes he used to wear, such
brogans on his feet! His wig was
burned. his shirt was soiled, his

along his path he toiled, he grunted
and he whooped. He lurched and
wallowed as he strobe, it was his
idle boast that as he progressed up
the road he fingered every post Ec-
centric motions he displayed, wher-
ever he might go, and every time
he'd climb a grade he had to shift to
low. | seem to see the pikers stand,
as johnson thundered by, and cry:
He surely beats the band He is
