FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY
BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA
on
All Rights Reserved Reproduction

Since the hearing powers Of differ
ent individuals vary it is impossible
to give a definite limit to the audible
frequencies, but for the sake of con-
venience the audible frequencies have
arbitrarily been fixed at between 20
and 10000 vibrations per second.
When we get up into the field of
vibrations Of more than 10000 vibra-
tions per second we enter a section to
which we have applied the name of
radio frequencies. You must under.
stand clearly, however, that although
sound and radio waves are similar in
that they are both wave motions.
their characteristics are. entirely diff.
ferent. In other words you cannot
get radio waves by causing a reed or
any other mechanical object to vibrate
at rate higher than 10000 vibrations
per second. Sound waves are produced
by causing air columns to vibrate by
means of vibrating reed or similar
object. Radio waves are produced by
vibrations of the ether caused by elec.
tromagnetic and electrostatic phe.
nomena.
In tomorrow's article we will take
up the subject of radio, heat, light and
ultraviolet light vibration.

The Effects Produced by Vibrations on
the Senses. Part /.

Few people seem to realize that
everything around them is in a con-
stant state of vibration and that the
rate of vibration of its minutest par
ticles is responsible for the effects
which the vibrations produce on our
senses and our ability to distinguish
between things of different character
istics.
The most commonly known form Of
vibration Is that. OF sound. This is
easy to understand because we can
see, feel and prove very easily the
fact that a sounding body is in state
of vibration. due to the fact that the
rate of vibration is comparatively
slow.
While we can see and feel the vibra-
tions Of a sounding body, the sense
which makes 1t possible to distinguish
a sound of one kind from that of an
other is that of hearing. having its
seat in our ears. Sound vibrations
may be simple or complex, depending
on whether they are produced as a
note of one frequency or note con-
sisting of two or more frequencies.
Travels 1,100 Feet Per Second.
A complete analysis of the differ"
ent kinds Of sounds would require
more space than is available in a short
article of this kind. Suffice it to say
for our purpose that soundwaves
which affect the ear all travel at the
same speed under constant conditions
of atmosphere. Tones of different
pitches, produced by vibrations Of
different frequencies, travel at the
same rate Approximately 1,100 feet
per second) so that the wavelength Of
all sounds is dependent on the fire.
quency.
The sounds that affect the ears OF
different persons vary, because the
hearing of different individuals varies.
Very low notes produced by a vibra.
ton rate of less than 20 vibrations per
second are inaudible to most people,
as are also the notes produced by
bodies vibrating at a rate higher than
10, 900 vibrations per second.
Vibrations of less than 20 per second
are termed "subaudible" frequencies;
those between 90 and 10000 per second
are termed audible" frequencies and
those above 10000 are termed super.
audible" freqUcncies.

Keeping Time.

Here Is good old Gingham Gupo.
prompt on time and right side up!
When the clock is striking eight he
comes hustling to my gate, with his
tools In brave array, fit to labor
through the day. Gingham Gupp is
never late: he is always here at eight.
No excuses does he need for a shame.
full lack of speed; nothing whining
need he say of a half an hours DELAY.
Eight o'clock means eight o'clock to
this good and wise old crock; when
the clock begins to strike he comes
lowing up the pike; ere the clock has
ceased its chime he is down to work,
on time. SO he digs the onion bed,
paints the cistern and the shed, mows
green whiskers from the lawn with
fine display of Drawn. When the
clock is striking twelve, Gingham
then will cease to delve; he will sit
him down and MUNICH on his frugal,
wholesome lunch, and the tin pail at
his side eggs and mullins will provide.
Having wrought with main and
might he has got an appetite that's
beyond the reach of Swains who are
burdened with their gains. When the
clock is striking one, the refreshment
being done, he is back to honest toll
like an engine given oil. All those
sandwiches and eggs put new vigor in
his legs, and the pie and Schweitzer
cheese seem to stimulate his knees,
and the way he sweats and pants is

clock is striking five. Gingham, tired
but still alive. takes his shovels, rakes
and hoes, and adown the road he
goes. And the people set their clocks
by old Gingham. as he walks. And

worthy jay. for his record is sublime,
he is evermore on time" Gingham
has a high renown in all quarters OF
