By HARRY J. MARX in New York Herald-Trtbune. Simplicity, efficiency and high qual ity. all combined, are the arguments for the receiver described In this ar ticle. The circuit was first worked out from a simplicity end efficiency angle. Trick features have been eliminated, but every possible little development for improvement in operation has been Incorporated. The circuit Is shown In the illustra tion, Two stages of highly efficient tuned radio frequency amplification, a detector and two real stages of audio frequency amplification certify to long distance range and the best of tone quality In reception. Three low-loss pickle bottle coils, combined with high quality straight line frequency condensers are the major factors in selectivity. The os cillation control permits operation Just below the oscillation point of the tube and Insures maximum performance with the best tone quality and a mini mum drain on the "B" batteries. One of the particular features of this circuit is the efficiency of the audio stages, not only In the selection of good transformers, but also in the proper use of by-pass condensers In or der to filter out all stray radlo-fre qfièncÿ currents înd èxlraneoué noises. There remains much that is still to be learned about the intelligent use of by pass condensers. "C" RaHery In the grid returns of the audio transformers is another factor In good audio amplification. The loud speaker can be plugged In on either the first or second stage Jack of the audio-frequency amplifier. The last Jack Is filament control for the last tube, so there is no unnecessary current consumption when only the first stage is used. Size of Set. The use of a 24-inch panel makes the set a compact one without unnecessary crowding and Interstage coupling, which would be detrimental to satis factory operation. There Is no over crowding in the panel layout and each of the contrôla is to placed tor con venience In tuning. The use of real vernier dials makes tuning a pleasure. The controls are by no means com plicated or difficult to operate. A rheostat Is used tor the detector tube, another tor the two radio-frequency amplifier tubes, and a third tor the audio stages. The sockets are uni versal and therefore permit the use of either storage battery or dry cell types of tubes. A resilient spring ac tion In the socket design assures a perfect contact and the elimination of microphonie noises by Its non-rigidity. Nine binding posts on a raised strip are easily accessible and mcke bat tery connections s simple matter. Everything is easily assembled and wiring is a simple, rapid operation, with none of those tricky inaccessible Winding Form 1 b Easy to Make From Tubing The basket-weave form of winding la one of the most compact efficient methods known. With It most any kind of coil or inductive tuner can be made. It has tbe following features that make it desirable for roost every use; compactness, low loss, low ca pacity, low or no dielectric losses and ¥■ — Baskst-Wsavs Winding Form With Uneven Number of Blots In Tubs. Is easily mounted, being very sturdy and rigid when properly wound and sewed together. These coils can be wound on any cir cular form having on uneven number of spokes. The main difficulty encogn tered la in removing tbe wire from the form after the winding has been made. In the Illustrated method this has been eliminated. Tbe spokes In the bakelite tube are flexible and will bend in releasing the pressure on the wind ings and allowing their removal with out mutilating them in any way. They are made by first marking the tube and then cutting the riots with a hack saw. A riot on each ride of tbe tube can be eut at the same time if the Made is set property on both of the aiPB through the «Mu la (bs eaCL marked lines. Before tbe coU Is re moved R should be sewed together by running s piece of thread up and connections which are the bane of set constructors. Apparatus Required. The first question every fan asks before deciding on the building of a set is "What parts will I need?" The following is the list of apparatus lected by the writer for use In his set i 1 panel, S-16 by 7 by 24 Inches. 1 baseboard. % by 8 by 28 Inches. 3 Eastern classic coils, type EB. 8 National Equlcyde SLP con densers, .00035 mfd. 8 National variable velvet vernier dials. 2 Multistage R-D meloformera. 5 Eby UX cushion sockets. 0 Eby "Ensign" binding posts. 1 binding post strip, 3-16 by % by 1T34 2 Carter "Imp" rheostat, IR-6, 6 ohms. 2 Carter "Imp" rheostat, IR-25, 29 ohms. 1 Carter 'Imp" pilot switch. 1 Carter Tlold-Tlte" Jack, No. 104. 1 Carter "Hold-Tlte" Jack.

Miscellaneous screws, lugs, solder, etc. To the selection of apparatus as listed above it would be well to Just consider the reasons tor their use. Tha pickle-bottle type of low-loss winding has become very popular because of its high selectivity features. The colla, when used with the condensers men tioned, cover the complete wave length band as required for our popu lar broadcast reception. The vernier dials have the unusual feature of a variable vernier ratio. In other words, the vernier adjustment can be made fine, desired. 1— Color Wiring. The use of color scheme In wiring is baaed on some definite plan that is to be followed. In wiring the set this schedule should be followed: All negative "A" leads use black. All positive "A" leads use red. Ail grid leads use g ree n . All positive "B" amplifier lecds use brown. All positive "B" detector leads use yellow. In building tbe function and poten tial of each lead can then be told at a glance. Don't permit the wiring to run too close to tbe coils Keep all tbe plate and grid leads as short as possible I then knot tightly. The coll can now be removed and Is ready tor use. I( tbe builder desires hs may leave the coil on the form. It will always hold the coil In shape and serves as a mounting.—Cleveland News, Variable Grid Leak A suitable set of values for a grid leak would be 1 megohm, 2 megohms. 8 megohms, 5 megohms and 7 megohms. A means may be provided tor bringing these values In action, which may be secured by wiring a tap switch so that it may be used to switch any one of a number of grid leaks into tbe circuit Tbis will provide a definite, positive value of grid resistance to salt the require ments of various groups of stations, according to their distance and power. Of Interest to the Amateur Much better results may be had from a homemade receiving set If all parta are bought Instead of trying to make them. In many cases of trouble shooting, It Is necessary to rebuild tbe entire set which costs more than build ing it fight In tbe first place. There Is also nothing gained In purchasing cheap material. Losses which show op In radio frequency work are what count and tbe difference between good and bad reception. Loop One Foot Square ,A loop one foot square will work with a sensitive receiver.

And the answer la—charge account With out credit there would be very little business transacted anywhere and there Is hardly a person who does not have a charte account some place. Not long ago there eat by . my bed aide a gentleman wbo congratulated me sincerely on my returning health. My reply was that I realty should he felicitated on having been 111 In the first place, and allowed to recover in the second; that It had all been actu ally a double blessing. The conversa tion took a sudden turn to his own affairs and be made me a confidante of the unhappy period be was going through, doe to an estrangement from one of the members of bis family and what he would give If the whole mis understanding could be wiped away. Then It was that I asked him if be had a charge account "A dosen," was hla answer. "1 couldn't do business without them." "You liquidate your accounts every month?'' I said. "Absolutely. Otherwise my credit wouldn't be good for very long." He recognised every obligation of credit for be la a good business man and good business men are honest and punctilious. He knew that If be saw a bat In a shop-window and was In duced to purchase It sooner or later he would have to give up something In exchange. He could not have the hat and bis money also and without thinking much about It be realised that such an 'arrangement was only equitable But he was unprepared for my next question. "Have you ever thought of opening a charge account with God?*' He had never explicitly considered God as the source of human happiness and blessings, nor that In return for what God gives us we must give some thing. It had never occurred to him that If he wanted a reconciliation with that member of bis family he muât de- < prive himself of something else. He had not until then caught the Idea that only by giving of our own love generously and without stint can we merit the love of others. As we talked I told him of the time when I was working on a Chicago newspaper and a# a matter of con venience opened a charge account with a department store near my of fice. For three months 1 paid my bills promptly when they were ren dered. The fourth month I was out of the city on an assignment and did not return for several weeks. When 1 did get back I found a rather curt let ter on my desk from the credit man of the store, asking me to kindly remit Then It was I realised tty»t God was I the most ienlent creditor I had. My wonder Just account weeks overdue, and 1 had been re minded of It at once. But my bill with God had stood for years and He was still patiently waiting for me to pay something on account I knew of course that I could never redeem the principal, but at least I could have One of the reagons for my recovery. 1 am sure. Is the charge account I have bad with God. I knew that what He gave me would come when 1 wanted It, I knew It would not be «hoddy nor second-rate, I knew that He cared tor my Interests, but 1 real ised, too. that I roust give Him some thing In return. So I have done the only thing 1 Tould do to pay that debt. I have en leavored to have nothing, but love In my heart, to come as close to the splr ,t of the Sermon on the Mount as my limited powers would permit; and for oving a great many people He has «ent a great many people to love me. He has given me returning health* the strength to write a book, the friends to help roe sell It.
