 Though the engagement of Miss Foster and MT.

One of radios grandfathers is Thomas
Edison, for it was a phenomenon he
discovered nearly a half century ago
that made 1t possible for DR.. Lee De
Forrest, justly called the father Of radio,
to perfect the vacuum tube.
The So-called Edison effect" the
bombardment of electrons that occurs
between the filament and plate in a
vacuum tube, really laid the corner
stone for modern radio and led also to
the talking movies, long-distance tele-
phony and picture transmission by wire
and wireless. according to S. o. S. Cald-

missioner. ''.A

greatest contributions to mankind on
the approach of the fiftieth anniversary
of his invention of the incandescent
electric lamp. The anniversary will be
celebrated october 81, the radio indus
try joining with the electrical to pay
homage to Mr.. Edison.
Electron Proved a Magic.
It was in 1883 that, Edison,. having
invented the incandescent light bulb,
was pursuing further researches into its
action. He found that If a piece of
positively charged metal were mounted
in this lamp, near but not touching the
fllament, current passed in one direc-
ton. Though positively charged, the
plate showed that a negative charge was
collecting upon it. Edison, puzzled, told
others about it, but no one suspected
the magic that might be accomplished
with that electron bombardment.
In 1904 Prof. ]. A. Fleming, working
with Marconi, utilized the Edison effect
to produce a rectifier for radio signal
detection. He found that when the
oscillations in the receiving circuit were
