They sacrificed their only child
that he might become a gentleman"
They went to the poorhouse because
he was ashamed of them. You'll like
this romantic drama of three gen.

London Slunas. There are broad,
racy comedy and tender love scenes
"a racing spectacle unprecedented
for its variety of humor and Incl
dent-all the queer trimmings of the
famous London Coster-the annual
fair-a tremendous, glorious fight
teeming with life and action. Tears
and laughter intermingled with
quaint touches to delight the eye and
captivate the imagination. Here in
deed is the whole gamut of life from
youth to old age against the vivid,
colorful background of a day gone

Mae Murray, Pat O'Malley and

Radios Hall of Fame. Part III.

Thomas A. Edison.--Directly and
indirectly, Edison has been responsible
for a number of inventions which
have done their part toward making
present-day radio possible. His
closest association with radio is due
to his discovery of the phenomenon
now known as the Edison effect in
his honor. He discovered that when
two electrodes. one heated and the
other cold, were placed in an evacu-
ated vessel, such as lamp, current
could be made to flow through the
space between the electrodes In one
direction, but not In the opposition di-
rection. This phenomenon was made
use of by Fleming in the perfection
Of his detector and later by De Forest
in the granddaddy Of the modern
vacuum tube detector and ampllfier.
Michael Faraday action OF
tuners, radio frequency and audio
frequency transformers and most Of
the electrical machinery Of today
owes its origin to the discoveries Of
Michael F'araday. His discoveries in
electromagnetisn and electromagnetic
induction were Of incalculable value TO

Reginald A. en.-F'essenden
is best known for his work in de
veloping the method Of continuous
wave conception by the combination
OF "a locally generated oscillation
with the incoming oscillation. This
method of producing beats by com
bining two oscillations of different
frequencies is the basis of the super
heterodyne circuit.
John Ambrose Fleming The prac-
teal application of the Edison effect
in what Is known as the Fleming
valve is Fleming's greatest contribu-
ton to radio. This valve, while not
much more sensitive than ordinary
types of crystal detectors, paved the
way to the invention Of the now IA

ctated with many researches in radio
