cause of the daylight-saving plan

tenor with the Metropolitan Opera Co.,
the individual star OF the Atwater-

tions of the old masters. Gounod,
Strauss, Sibelius and List, will be
PLAYED in this concert. Roxy's Sun
day afternoon Offering, which will fea.
ture a large symphony orchestra, will
come at / o'clock. The afternoon
broadcast also includes the Young Peo'
pies Conference and the services at

HAPPY MEDIUM URGED
IN USE OF RADIO POWER
Fans Advised to Avoid Extremes
in Amplifying Reception
of Programs.

1ndiscriminate use of power in radio
reception often tempts the radio lis
tener to run to the opposite extreme
by foregoing the advantage of power
ampliflcation altogether. There have
been a number of cases of this recent
ly and they can be attributed to the
habit of failing to strike happy me-
dium.
First the radioist tries amplifying on
large scale and then finds that he
has passed through stage of good
tone to one of distortion. He stands 1t
for a while, because at first there is
something of novelty in hearing the
weaker stations come in with unusual
strength. Pretty soon he tires Of this.
however, and even finds it something

Pearls From Parasite Eggs.

On display recently in drug store
window in Little Rock, Ark, were p
600 pearls produced at a river farm
nearby, where the gems were grown
for the market, says The Popular Me
chanics Magazine. They were raised
from tiny seed pearls transplanted
from a mussel into another bivalve.
The seed is formed, not around a
tiny grain of sand, as is widely be.
lteved, but around the minute egg Of
a certain kind Of water parasite.
Pearls cannot be produced in all
waters because this parasite is not
found everywhere. according to a
pearl expert. After the seed has been
transplanted, seven years are required
before the pearl Is ready for gather
ing.

Radio Service Is Boon.

The radio service of the Danish
meteorological bureau is proving
great boon as we'll as distinct
economic advantage to the farmers OF
that country. Vice Consul Johnson ad.
Vises the Department OF Commerce.
Recently a special committee of the
national farm organization began CO
operating with the official radio con
troll board in an effort to secure regu-
lar programs and frequent instructive
lectures for the agriculturists which
are now assured.

RADIO PROCESS is OLD.
Present Product Is New Combina-
tion of Ancient Practices.

Radio may seem 10 be very new
thing, but like almost everything else
it simply is a new combination OF q
great many very ancient practices
Even some of the ideas now dailv
used by millions OF persons when they
illuminate the magic vacuum tubes
were known in a vague sort of wav
to their grandparents.
How many mothers Of present radio
owners recall the days when they
used TO wear string Of amber beads
IN Winter because their grandmother
said that this would protect them
against sore throats ard colds? Am
Der was one Of the first materials dis
covered to have electrical properties
grandmother was thinking about the
emission of electrons without under
standing it in quite those terms.

to shun. Then is when he goes to the
opposite and equally undesirable ex-
treme.
He tells himself that rather than
stand for this distortion he would pre-
fer to just barely hear the programs.
The soft pedal looks good to him and
he uses it excessively. The result is
that he receives distorted music
through choking off half of 1t rather
than by overamplifying it.
1t is just as bad to kill off the lower
frequencies which carry so much of
the bass and which contribute so much
to the tonal qualities as it Is to am
plify them to point OF exaggeration.

Hiding Precaution Urged.

Hiding radio accessories may be an
excellent idea so far as the beauty of
the set goes, but some precautions
must be taken into consideration. One
of these is weight. Add the weight
Of a storage battery, charger and
an eliminator Tor dry cells) and the
combined load is often q bit too much
for the bottom Of flimsy eabinst. A
