When trying out new circuit it is
advisable to lay out the parts on
neat board and draw the connection TO
the variou~ parts with a pencil. then
check it up with the diagram. In this
manner faults can be found before the
set has been wired and it also reduces
the hazard of destroying expensive
parts
When trouble is experienced with
tuning, because stations are easily
passed, and the fan does not want to
go to the expense of installing a YER
nier, try a dial four or five inches in
diameter, instead of the usual three
inches. This makes it easier to get
right in the center of the wave. Yer

If the constructor does not happen
to have the necessary tools for drill
ing and tapping the base and threading
the ends of the brass pegs another
means Of making the former is as fol-
lows: Drill the nine holes required in
an inch-thick hardwood base with
drill which is trifle smaller than the
brass rod used for the pegs, and hav-
ing cut these. drive them into the holes
with hammer until they are quite
firm. AS long as fairly light gauge
wire is used in winding the coils, and
undue tension is not put on the wire
while winding, this will prove quite
satisfactory alternative. If too great
tension is applied to the wire the
tops of the pegs will be pulled out of
the vertical. and not only will the coils
be conical, but after several turns have
been wound the pegs will tend to be-
come loose in their holes.

sary to screw the rods into place in
order to be able to make basket-weave
coils. The single-weave coil is the
most usual and is shown in Fig. 2
But double and triple-weave coils can
be made If desired, and form interest

point of view, as well as allowing more
turns of wire to be accommodated on
winding of given length.

The method of making these basket

in Fig. 8. First lift the coil so as to
leave a space of one-half to one inch
between the bottom of the coil and the
base of the former. This can be done
with strip of metal beveled off at one

the bottom turn, or by means of a

HaUdna Motorists Keep
Cars in Front Halls

There are many strange sights for
the tourist to see in Havana, but per-
haps one of the most surprising comes
when ne visits a Cuban home and sees
the family automobile in the front
hallway.
In all of downtown Havana, with its
population of some 100000, space is at
a premium. Streets are narrow and
houses are Joined together and are
flush with the sidewalk. When the
automobile came along many families
who could afford one uld not feel able
to pay garage rent, or did not care to
have their machine kept blocks or
even miles away.
Practically all of the front entrances
have wide double doors, and so the
cars found parking space indoors,
usually near the staircase. They
can be seen in scores of homes, but
the oil cans, extra tires and greasy
cloths usually found in an American
garage are tucked away out of sight

mississippi Dragons

Two devil-like monsters painted and
carved on the face of a cliff 80 feet
above the Mississippi river near Alton
H., were discovered by the French ex-
plorers Marquette and Joliet in June,
1893. They were known as the "Piasa
petroglyph" to psychologists and were
commonly called the Mississippi dra-
CONS. They were ranked as the fin
est example of early Indian art, and
many legends were told to account for
them. Marquette described them as
being "as large as calf, with horns
on the head like a deer, fearful look,
red eyes, bearded like tiger, the face
somewhat like a mans, the body Gov
cred with scales and the tail so long
that it twice makes a turn of the
body, passing over the head and down
between the legs, and ending at last
in a fsh's tail" The painting was in
an almost inaccessible place on the
cliff and remained there until 1856 or
81, when limestone workers quarried
back into the bluff and destroyed it.
