When the youth of the nation
found themselves backed into the
corner, with the desirable frequencies
hedged off by legal restrictions, they
managed to invent new sets and new
methods. The result was that when
the Government experts rubbed their
eyes. they found the despised anna

Seas with the cheap sets contrived by
these ambitious young inventors

incredible investigation. that these

decided to look up a source of supply
for crystals. with the conclusion that
they must come from old spectacleS.
Statesmen and managers were all in
structed to get in touch with what
ever optical-supply houses there might
be in their own districts, or in any
cities they might visit. so all the
| oldest shops were called on and the
old-faShioned lenses dug out from the
, shelves.
Naturally enough, the owners were
only too pleased to be rid of this un-
desired stock. and not being interested
in the burning topic of radio, were
glad to sell each lens for price that
generally averaged about 20 cents
apiece. About that time other con-
Germs conceived the same idea and set
their statesmen to combing the coun-
try, but it was a case of arriving after
the cupboard was bare, as the job had
been so we'll and thoroughly carried
out by the first concern that in more
than 90 cities from Washington to
New Orleans they We're only able to
turn up six crystals.
1t may interest officials of the Blu

same crystals We're among the ones
that they purchased for their expert
mental work at the handsome price Of
$50 per, a little later. when the crystal
market had scared to its present
height. In fact, the company that
obtained the old spectacleS from vari-
Gus points about the countryside will

course is a very important phase of
