Third DIMENSION
IN TONE APPLIED
New Radio Develops Circuit
overtones and Gets Remark
able Combining Results

The third dimension" in tone Is
the term being used by the makers Of
Sparton Radio to describe improve
ments In musical quality that are be-
ing developed by radio engineers. The
older term, range" being common
~ understood to apply only to the
upper and lower limits Of tone. did
not describe what may be called the
'fullness" upon which rich quality
depends.
Fullness. according to Sparton, has
no relation whatever to power or
volume. Radio reception can be soft
as whisper and still have the room
filling resonance Of q fine old violin.
This third dimension" = fullness -
can only be attained by the reception
Of overtones, as well Is the funda-
mentals Of music. AS every musician
knows. the richness Of such instru-
ments as the cello, pipe organ. full
orchestra. etc.. Is wholly dependent
on these overtones.
In the new Equasonne. circuit re-
ception Of these overtones has been
developed to an extremely high de-
gree. BY tuning across an entire
wave band. instead Of ito q peak, !"
remarkable results have been at
tanned.
The vitality necessary overtones. it
is claimed, are broadcast, not on the
sharp wave length, but In q narrow
channel on either side Of this def
mite line. The Equasonne circuit in
tercepts these supplem tary
impulses and incorporates them into q
single rich tone. This is done with
no sacrifice Of sharp tuning by means
Of the automatic wave band filter
which is distinctive feature of the
Equasonne circuit.

Baldwin. N. D.

Editor, Tribune:
I believe. it would be good idea
to restore the two-ceft bounty on
gophers.
We could also retain the present
method Of distributing poisoned oats
to the farmers.
It Is a we'll known fact that the
time to get the gopher is as early in
the spring as possible. Right at the
time when the farmer is busy getting
in his crop. :.
So, on this account, many farmers
have no time to attend to poisoning
gophers until after they have become
much more numerous than they are
early in the spring.
BY restoring the gopher bounty, the
young boys of the farms would be
encouraged to catch or shoot the
gophers.
While the sum offered as a bounty
would not be large, it would be suf-
ficient to cause the destruction Of
many of the pests which otherwise
would not be destroyed
Arrangements should be made 50
county commissioners could reimburse
those who deserve the bounty.

Editor Tribune:
Just recently q small child In Gin
cinnati, Ohio. lay at the point Of
death several weeks on account OF
having swallowed q toy motorcycle
which had been placed in q package
Of popcorn as prize.
This Is not the first time a child
has been injured by swallowing one
Of the toys or other gimcracks which
are placed as prizes in certain brands
Of popcorn.
I would suggest law prohib-
iting the putting Of anything
that might prove injurious in popcorn
or any other food intended for chill
dren.
A chocolate soldier, a candy mouse
or bright stick of candy would prove
just as acceptable to the little folks,
and could do them no harm.
I would like to know what others
think Of my suggestion.

Far from solemn warnings about
the danger of gambling I think there
ought to be encouragement for those
who have the spunk to take a
chance.
That everything is going to the
bow-wows I doubt gravely and yet
even if it is it seems to me more
admirable to go down with the bullet
holes in front.
Since everybody has had his say
about the economic present and the
economic future of the United
States I see no reason why should
be disbarred, even though I can
present no credentials to identity
myself as an expert.
I think I know what caused the

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

for sleeping purposes, and the fail
ure to establish proper sleeping
habits.
DR.. Matter points out that it is
not necessarily advisable that the
child's toys and games, its aqua
rum with the gold fish, its animal
pets, and indeed all Of its accesSo-
ries to life be put in one room.
Sometimes the child finds 1t
difficult to sleep merely because
these things which interest it most
are in it's immediate surroundings.
Parents far too frequently deco
rate the nursery and physicians not
infrequently decorate the walls of
hospitals devoted to children with
stimulating pictures which excite
the imagination and which are far
more likely to disturb rest than to
aid it.
A child may find difficulty in fall
ing asleep, as DR.. Matter points out,
because the paper 'on the wall
shows Jack tumbling down hill with
no place to land or a COW jumping
over the moon with every intention
of landing on Miss Muffet.
The human being is frequently
kept awake by overstimulation of

such senses as sight or hearing. An
overexcitable child may be kept
awake by light pouring into its
room through cracks in the window
shade or by the noise of rafting
window or door.
Unusual, irregular, interesting or
exciting noises will prevent the
child from falling asleep, where as
the constant playing of jazz or other
music on the radio may not disturb
it at all, if that is the regular pro-
cedure in the family.
Children are especially sensitive
to the temperature of the room and
may be unable to sleep well because
the room is too warm or too cold
because the covers are too heavy
or too light, and for similar reasons
Most important of all in relation
to the child's sleep is the establish
ment of regular schedule of living
and of rest.
If the child's sleeping habits have
been bad and it is necessary to cor
rect them, suitable rewards or in
centives may be. established to
induce the child to cooperate in
the method.

An Example for Britain

withdrawal of Rear Admiral Hilary P. Jones as
chief technical adviser to the American delegation
to the London naval conference should clear the
atmosphere
Jones desired the powers of independent dele
gate That was impossible. for two reasons. First it
is to be unified delegation, expressing the policy of
the White House. Second the function of naval
officers will be limited to technical advice.
1t is unfortunate that Jones had to make himself
the goat in this needless disagreement over the nature
of the delegation for he is of the abest of the
American experts. He never has taken advantage of
his position to sabotage the civilian authority Even
as member of the American delegation at the ILL
fated Geneva naval conference, he cooperated Loyalty
with White House and state department. policy.
But it is important whether Jones knows it not,
that the men at London with the last word should be
civilians The American and British admras had their
chance at Geneva and failed Whether they were
chiefly responsible for that asco is beside the point
1t is true that they unable to create the spirit
of friendly give-andtake So essential If interna-
tional conference is to result in agreement.
An admiral by training and prejudice sees the IN
ternatonal situation in naval terms. President
Hoovers civilian delegation should be in position to
beyond the technical to the political economic, and
humanitarian implications of naval reduction.
There should be naval experts to advise the dele
CATION but policy should be determined exclusively by
the responsible civilian authorities.
Perhaps the most important effect of the Jones
incident will be its effect London. While there
never has been much chance that adnirals would
dictate American policy in the coming conference,
there is real danger that the admiralty will dominate
British policy as it dominated the abortive Geneva
conference.
If there is to be cruiser reduction instead of mere
limitations, Prime Minister Macdonald first must
shake the admiralty out of the seat of power which
it long usurped 1t is to be hoped that he will be
inspired by the example of Hoover, who is using the
admiralS, but not being used by them.

according to the New York Telegram.

custody were discharged in night court by magls-
trate who said that he charge of distributing leaflets
without permit had been held unconstitutional sew
eral years ago." Nevertheless, they were prevented
from distributing their leaflets on the evening of
the 18th.
Speaking of the leafet distributions, Tlttle said:
whoever called upon the police last night to arrest
those using their constitutional rights of distributing
printed notices as to when and where they would
exercise their constitutional right of assembly pur-
sued a very short-sighted course"
Speaking of his daughter Tutte told of her ex-
perences at Vassar college her later experiences In
social work etc. He then said st had a long-Stand-

to get off long enough to hear my daughter and be
on hand in any one attempts to interfere with
the right of free speech"
This is all to the good. The New York City repre-
sentative of the United States government hops to
it to see that the constitutional rights of free speech
and assembly are not infringed by the New York
police or the state police. Very commendable, and

Brains Needed Here

a DMITTING that criminals
IN should be separated for the
sal e of protection, if for no better
reason, isn't there land enough to do
this, without placing them behind
stone walls and iron bars?
And aren't there brains enough in
the world to devise some system
whereby they can be surrounded by
conditions which approximate nor
NAL life?
Admitting that reform is possible
in many cases, isn't that the best
way to begin?
If it is desirable to start normal
people in life with the best en-
vironnent and associations, isn't it
even more desirable for those who
have gone wrong?
Who supposes that We could take
group Of average young people and
put them in the average reforna-
tory, without getting bad results?
And if that is so, what about
young people who are subnormal?
The cost of guarding penal COM
munities hardly would be greater
than that of guarding prisons, as
Magistrate McAdoo points out, while
the life in them would be far more
natural.
Every year sees thousands of con-
victs dismissed from our prisons and
reformatories.
If there is no danger in allowing
them to return to society, how could
there be danger in allowing them to
live in segregated communities while
serving their terms?
