How to Build the Mohawk Single Dial
Receiver. Part VI.

The next step in constructing the
receiver Is to mount rheostats / and 4
and battery switch on the rear OF
the front panel. as shown In Fig. 2.
The subpanel and front panel can then
be mounted together by mounting
variable condenser on the front
panel. The screws which fasten the
front panel to the condenser and the
brackets which fasten the subpanef to
the variable condenser will hold tho
panel and subpanel together firmly
until the subpanel is mounted rigidly
on the shelves of the cabinet.
Now connect together. in turn. the
"a" terminal of switch 2, the "B" ter
minal of rheostat !, the "a" terminal
of rheostat and the "F" terminal Of
coil 81. Then connect the "A" termi-
nal of rheostat ] with the negative
minus terminal of socket S. Next con-
meet the "B" terminal of rheostat 4
with the negative minus terminal of
socket IL.
The wiring Is completed by connect
ing the "B" terminal of switch with
the shield of condenser 3 at the near
est convenient point.
Check Over Connections.
Regardless of the care you have ex-
ercised in making the connections, 1t
is good plan To check over them to
be sure that you have made them
properly. A good way to do this Is to
read off each instruction, check over
the connection and underline the in
struction covering the connection that
has been made.
The connections for antenna, ground
and batteries are shown clearly in the
wiring diagram. Fig. !, and in the lay
out diagram. Fig. 3. The connections
for the loud speaker are made to bind
ing posts 10, 20 and 81. To connect
the loud speaker into the first stage
circuit connect one loud speaker ter
minal with binding post 10 and the
other with binding post 20. To shift
the loud speaker to the second stage
all that Is necessary Is to change tbs
loud speaker terminal that Is connect
ed with binding post 19 to binding post
81. The connection with binding post
20 remains the same for both stages.
The next step is to balance the three
condenser banks so as to bring the
tuning of the two radio frequency and
detector stages in step.
Adjust Condenser Plates.

in Their Wrists.

as much as he had expected. 1t was the
love of lifetime. He would never love
anyone else or be happy without her. She
was just as much in love with him, but
not with his real self, but that artificial
clown self that he hated and despised and
thought he was rid of.
Under kept up the clowning during
the honeymoon and then came the time
to make his delayed and much overdue
picture. This meant being buffOon all
day before the camera and then to go home
to that eager and critical little audience
of one, always demanding more, more
from her clown. When they had been
married less than a year the day came
when the exhausted nerves of the come
dian snapped
The bride, to her CONSERVATION, saw him
drop into his real, sombre, almost morose
self. 1t seemed to her as if she We're
married to stranger, as if she had mar
ried DR.. Jekyll and beheld him turn into
the wretched Mr.. Hyde. Jeanne was I'M
dergoing, in an aggravated form, what
every wife is said to suffer at some time
the spectacle of her husband trying to
rest after catching his car.
There were scenes, bitter complaints
She said what every wife says: "You
didn't neglect me like this before We
We're married. 1t was pleasure to en-
terrain me then" His answer, that he
could no longer keep it up, did not satisfy
her at all. If he still loved her it should
be pleasure to please her. This debate,
which no doubt was invented by Adam
and Eve, went on for a few months and
then she left him. The great comedian
now had exactly what he had always
yearned for-peace and quiet, with no
demands, nobody to say: Laugh, clown,
laughr'
A month of this peace was all he could
stand. Then he took the train to Chamo-
nix, the place where he had first started
to WOO her and there he wooed her all
over again. Like many another pair of
true lovers, they could neither live with
each other nor without, and as she could
not understand what was the matter with
him he had to promise to be his funny
self that she loved forever more. Prob
ably he knew that he could not make
good, but his heart was starving and he
knew he had to try.
So she came back and to outsiders and
probably even to her everything seemed
was funny all the time. The picture which
he had stopped he now attacked with a
fury of energy. 1t was the screen version
of 'Le Chasseur de Chez Maxim's, which
ran at the Selwyn Theatre, in New York,
under the title of "The Blue Kitten" At
the same time he finished building a
great home at Neuilly, just outside of
Paris, and he and Jeanne stocked it with
most expensive furnishings.
The house was ready, servants in
stalled and waiting, the picture was with

passed over Europe and all laughter
stopped.
The examining officers found some
physical defect in the comedian which
barred him from the army He vas told
that the best way be could help France
would be to make lot of money so he
could be taxed. France, convulsed by the
German invasion, was now no place to
make pictures, so he had to look else
where.
Across the water he saw America, rich,
carefree, with no suspicion as yet that
she was to be drawn into the fire.
Linders reputation had spread to Holly
wood, so just as his own land turned
serious enough to suit even him, the I'M
happy funny man had to move to the gay
and giggling moving picture capital of
the world.
There he had to make new connections,
new friends and prove to American
capitalists that he was as funny as
Charlie haplin-almost. This meant the
dining, winning and side-splitting all over
again. In Hollywood he met the real
Charlie Chaplin and the two sad-faced
laugh manufacturers became great
friends, wandering off on long walks in
which no note of levity disturbed their
melancholy happiness.
Under made pictures and added to his
fortune. Among the successes, perhaps
the best remembered is "The Three Must
Get Theirs" parody, of course, on "The
Three Musketeers."
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1926-01-03

in week of being finished when, without
warning, something went wrong. The
clown dropped his comedy mask again,
DR.. Jekyll vanished and the gloomy Mr..
Hyde appeared. Work at the studio stopped.
The star would not go near the place nor
This cost him fortune. He had been
promised guarantee of 100000 and
an Italian syndicate had already paid
handsome advance which had to be re-
funded.
The great house was open. Its SER
wants waited idly for the master and
mistress that did not come and sent no
word. Max Under and his wife simply
stayed in their room at the Baltimore
Hotel, in Paris, for nearly week, and to
all queries on the telephone replied
'Please do not bother us now. We
are busy"
How were they busy? What had hap
pened? The fountain of laughter had
dried up again. Under had failed once
more and this time knew that it would
be forever. AT last she understood She
was in love with an artificial character
that had now gone as completely as Dr.
and all. As for the real man who re-
NAMED, she never had loved him and
never could. She had married sunshine
and gotten the rain. He still loved her,
but knew that she was as lost as if, she
were dead.
Both realized that they could neither
live with each other nor without Slowly
they seem to have agreed that their lives
were spoiled and that there was only one
thing they could do together-dies Dur
ing that week they made their prepara-
tons, settled their affairs, wrote letters
of farewell and one night notified the
hotel clerk that on no account must they
be disturbed even the next morning.
But Madame Peters, the wifes mother,
read something ominous between the lines
of her daughters letter and hurried down
from her home in the Alps. She reached
the hotel at ten in the morning and over
rode the clerks instructions not to dis
turb his prominent guests.
As neither the telephone nor knocking
on the door brought response, a porter
was ordered to break in, and the mother
saw her daughters body stretched beside
that of Max. Each had cut the little ar
teries in the wrists at just the point where
a doctor feels the pulse. Both were still
breathing and taken to the hospital, but
the surgeons found them beyond the aid
of medical science.
On the table lay many letters saying
that they were tired of life and also a
little verse, scrawled in the funny mans
handwriting, that may have been one of his
last thoughts for an epitaph' 1t is trans
lated as follows:
Remember our virtues-f0rget our sins,
Within each face deaths head grinS

princely things to impress the girl and
they did. Why should she notice Under,
who always played second fiddle?
She didn't at first. She just tolerated
course, no woman can have too many.
But he meant no more in the plans of
her life than chorus man in the plot
of a musical comedy. Under stuck along
until he was hopelessly in passions grip
and did not care what happened to him
if he could only somehow get that girl.
In this crazy condition, of course, he
disregarded his vow never to clown ex-
cept for the camera. The first time he
tried it he knew he had weapon that
none of his rivals could match. Suddenly,
as in his pictures, he dominated every
body. He was everything, they were
nothing. 1t was just Max Under and his
audience, the girl.
The rivals did not like this reversal of
things, but they had to invite this deadly
man who always stole their shows from
them because Jeanne insisted and they
could not deny that no party was sue
cess without him. Gradually the other
suitors saw admiration in the girls eyes
turn to fascination and finally to love for
this funny man.
What was the use, they thought, of
contending with one who beat them with
no effort or expense? Every party was his.
The party might be on rivals million
dollar floating palace or his three-million-
dollar chateau, it made no difference, it
was Linder's party because nobody lis
tened to anyone else. The food, the music,
the scenery were only background for
the comedian. One by one the other
candidates dropped out and Max saw that
he was winning. He needed encourage
ment, for, though nobody suspected it, he
was enduring great strain.
Like marathon runner he had his eye
fixed on. the goal, the end of the race,
where at last he could drop down and rest.
If he could only keep going at this pace
until he got the girl to the altar-then-
why then, of course, he had won the
prize and would live happily ever after.
In other words, he was reasoning just
the way most women complain that their
husbands have reasoned-that having
once reached the altar, having caught
their car, they flop down and rest. Of
course this was not what Jeanne or any
other girl ever wanted.
Jeanne's parents opposed the match.
They did not see the joke that the come
dian was unconsciously preparing for HIM
self, but their practical minds thought
that yachts and titles were more substan-
tal assets than laughter, and they were
right. Their opposition, however, only
resulted in an elopement to Paris and a
marriage which Linder's followers con-
sidered a national event.
During the honeymoon the comedian
began to see the joke he had played on
himself and his bride. He loved Jeanne
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1926-01-03

When the war was over, Under re-
turned to his native country. 1t was a
sadder France, not quite so eager to be
always laughing, and now he was a multi
millionaire, able to get what capital he
needed without clowning for it. He ar
ranged to make just one picture per year
and outside of the hours in which he must
be buffoon before the camera, the rest
of his life he would live for himself.
Everyone would have to take him as he
really was-take him or leave him. He
swore a great oath to that effect and
hoped to die if he ever broke it.
Looking into the future, Under could
see nothing ahead but long life of well
earned peace and serenity-and just then
he fell in love and ruined everything. In
the Chamonix Valley, he met little
Jeanne Peters. The young lady was beau
tiful and much sought after, so the. atten-
lions of the French celebrity did not at
all dazzle her nor her parents Max found
himself in competition with men younger,
handsomer and richer. Many were of
ancient lineage and some even had titles,
1t was steep game. Travelling in the
crowd which followed the little beauty
to the various fashionable resorts of Eu-
rope Under found himself piker. Some
one always outshone him with a great
steam yacht or lordly chateau or by
being the guest of royalty. The screen
star, though a rich man, never could
match any of these things; he was simply
outclassed. The rivals were doing all these
