MAKING USE OF OLD DRY
BATTERIES

Since the introduction of the dry
eel type of radio batteries, the dis
posal of the worn out ones is a prob
lem unless you just cast them into
the refuse. If you have furnace it is
no longer necessary to throw the bat
teries away, as they may be burned
to advantage. When thrown into a
furnace they will burn very readily
and at the same time act as clean
er for the flue.
When the flames mix with the burn
ing chemicals there is composition
of gases which reacts upon the SCOT
in the flues. Thus problem has been
solved in the disposal of old batter
les. and this new use for them makes
them practical household aid.
It is principally the zinc in the bat
teries that does the trick and either
the A or B batteries may be used. 1t
would be preferable with the A bat
teries, to remove the center parts of
the cell and just throw the zinc COW
ering into the flames.

WOMAN SERVES AT 80

Perhaps Americas most remark
able woman is Mrs. Rebecca Latimer
FELTON, of Georgia, who has many
claims to distinction, any one of
which would alone be sufficient to
make her an interesting parsonage.
One which is unique is that she is
the only woman ever to hold the of
flee of United States Senator.
When a Georgia Senator died some
years ago, the governor appointed
her to the office to serve for one day,
in honor of her distinguished services
to the state in many ways, she being
a noted writer and speaker, She is
the widow of Rev. w. H. FELTON,, who
was formerly a member of Congress.
Just now, Mrs. FELTON, is engaged
at the age of 90, in assembling and
arranging wealth of historical ma
terial, gathered during her long life,
which she will present to the Univer-
sity of Georgia for preservation.
In performing this labor of love,
it is said that she is buster than ever,
putting in several hours daily going
over her letters received in CORES
pondence with famous leaders of the
confederacy and statesmen of later
years, arranging these together with
a mass rare documents and articles
of historic and sentimental interest
which through her labors are to be
saved for posterity.
Thus the Grand Old Lady OF
Georgia still patriotica,ly serves
her state and the nation, in spite of
her 80 years.

WHAT THE HOTEL
WORLD" SAYS OF
RICHEL LODGE

The many friends and patrons of
Richel Lodge will have the pleasure
of reading an article on the popular
resort which appeared in "The Hotel
World" of Chicago of late issue.
Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert Richel, who
operate the Richel Lodge at Red
Lodge, Montana, have sent us some of
their business getting literature. 1t is
very interesting and has only one
draw back for busy editor in bustl-
ing hustling busy city. That draw
back is just this: Mr.. Editor reads
the letter signed by Mrs. Richel
which tells us to plan our vacation to
include the Beartooth mountains and
Richel Lodge and then goes on to de-
scribe some of the things we can do
in those self same mountains. Mr..
Editor reads about horses, pack train
tours of the mountain country where
two hour journey will take one into
the glacier country and then he turns
to the pictures that accompany the
letter and starts to dream. Meanwhile
his typewriter stands idle and the
telephone rings unheeded and the
hour passes swiftly, while the should
be-busy editor is mentally wandering
through western mountain country.
Then Mr.. Editor must pull himself
back to his copy desk for another is
sue is being brought out. That's the
only sad part of this bit Of literature
the Richels have sent US, it keeps US
from our work.

S. Navy Radio Experiments

1t is reported that radio and sound
projects to the extent of over $780,
900 were Cancelled during the last

He expressed the belief that certain
improvements which the Navy could
make would bring relief from in
reference with broadcasting pro-
grams. Admiral Halligan advises that
the fleet needs modern radio appara-
tus in large quantities.
The principal needs are for reliable
battle line communication, reliable
fire control communication, particu-
larly for aircraft observations, trans
mitters to replace the obsolete spark
sets, and for more selective receivers
The necessity for avoiding interior
ence with public broadcasting re-
quires the replacement of part of oul
sets that now use the broadcast fire.

Another fact that was brought out
was that a majority of the vessels Of
the fleet are self-sustaining in radio

Fifteen Microphones Used in Broad
casting Opera


When the National Broadcast Com
pany decided to broadcast some of
the operas given by the Chicago Civ
ic Opera Company from the auditor
ium Theatre at Chicago, its engineers
had considerable task on their
hands. The task was in the install
ing of the Is microphones which were
used in the picking up of the COM
plete atmosphere of the theatre.
Four Chicago stations and the COM
bined Red and Blue networks of the
National Broadcasting company took
part in the transmitting.
Microphones were suspended out
over the audience, up above the stage,
in the wings at the side of the stage,
all along the footlights, and at sew
eral points in the orchestra pit. These
microphones all led to so-called
mixing PANEL back-stage where the
various ones were cut in and out of
the circuit as the action varied. This
was necessary in order to properly
pick up the most essential parts of
the performance. From the mixing
panel, the pickup went to the Chi
cago broadcasters and then to New
York City, where it was sent out
over the regular networks of stations.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Oh. N. A. asks: as there any
advantage in using a metal shield for
each tube Of a receiving set?"
Ans.:-Ordinarily such shielding
is unnecessary. However, in some
sets using number of tubes there
is likely to be a certain amount of
unwanted interaction between them
which results in bowling and broad
tuning. In such cases grounded metal
shields for each tube are desirable.

April is very popular month for
weddings, perhaps because it boasts
the diamond for its gem or, perhaps,
because it is such a springy, sweet
smelling time of the year. Neverthe-
less, numerous showers are in order
for the many brides-to-be and this
is most appropriate one for the
rainy month.
l think the prettiest way to use the
idea is for handkerchief shower al
though linen, miscellaneous, bath
room, or-if the umbrella is strong
enough-a kitchen shower could be
worked out effectively. If you have a
handkerchief shower make the para
sol of crepe paper. To do this rip the
covering from an old umbrella and
cover the frame with any color paper
you wish.
Attached to Chandelier
Ask the bride-to-be to arrive at a
later hour than the other guests sc
that all the handkerchiefs may be
fastened to the edge of the umbrella
and closed inside it before she comes
After it is ready it ought to be sus-
pended, handle down, from chan

essary of course.

Q.-S. A. H. says: I have UX-
112 power tube in my set which has
strong purple glow in it when the
B voltage is applied. Is this due to
a defect in the tube?"
Ans: 1t is probable that the tube
is defective and that some air has
leaked in. This air becomes ionized
under the high plate potential and
produces the glow.

Or. @. z asks: "Is there any
harm in allowing B battery elimina-
tor to operate when the filaments of
the receiving tubes are not lighted ?"
Ans: When the receiving tubes
are not lighted the load on the elm
inator is so light that it's voltage may
jump up to several times its normal
voltage. This puts considerable
strain on the filter condensers and
unless they have a good margin of
safety they are likely to be punctur-
ed.

sire to call attention to the following
facts:
For every season ticket sold there

tract is credited with that amount,
and you are entitled to attend every
one of the eleven entertainments

However, the cost of these same
entertainments when attended on a
