Fewer degrees and more devo-

You’ve heard of England's patri-
otic exhibition, at Wembley, plunned
to boom the British Empire and
arouse British patriotism.
The best Imperial exhibit shows
a map of the world of gigantic size,
with the oceans, seas and bigger
lakes made of real water.
Britishers walking around that
map see aU parts of the earth's sur-
face owned by them Ughted up by
red lights from below. They see
thousands of British ships moving
along through the water on the great
.world’s trade routes. Signs teH them
that the British flag flies over one-
quarter of ail the land on earth.
When the visitor from Canada.
Australia, South Africa, sees that
be says to himself “Partnership In
the British Empire Is a pretty good
thing."
And other nations including ours
we bound to give the Britishers
eredlt for governing ability. You
saw the other day a statement by
the British Labor Prime Minister
MacDonald, that the whole army of
the British Empire Is smaUer than
the army of Holland or Spain. That
means good management.
The great Everett Cotton Mills of
Lawrence, Massachusetts, have
closed. "No demand for colored cot-
ton goods." And England is shipping
millions of yards of colored cotton
cloth into this country. The stores
discover that goods sell more easily
when labelled "Made In England."
It wouldn’t be a bad Idea to have
at Washington, and In every Mg
city, a patriotic map showing what
the United States amounts to.
We don’t own one-quarter of the
enrth's surface. But we have got
a couple of oceans, some big lakes,
the Mississippi. Niagara Falls, the
Rockies, more than half of all the
A new locomotive, Just tried in

whole power plant in itself, burns
oil, changes that Into electricity, and
runs by the electricity.
A boy cun learn to run It In ten
minutes. It has great power. ir
you are told It uses only ten to
fifteen cents worth of fuel per ho' -
That won't please coal mine owners.
This nation has many valuable
crops running up Into the billions
per year. The most valuable of
all, although you couldn't sell It
for ten cents or even give It away,
Is the crop of babies.
In the United States last year.
1,238,000 brand new babies were
born. Only 621,000 deaths occurred,
leaving out Immigration, a popula-
tion increase of 617,000. That Is a
great city added to the nation by
the nation's mothers.
How fast this country grows,
even with limited Immigration! Our
population Is now more than
112,000,000, more than 7,000,000 in-
crease slnoe the census of 1920.
That's good news, for what we need
Is another 100,000,000 people to do
work now neglected, and to consume
the products of farms and factories.
In England women are beginning
to take snuff, tired of cigarettes.
That won't last, for snuff makes
the nose black instead of pink on
the Inside. Pink snuff may lie In-
vented. Nevertheless, snuff taking
won’t endure.
But It illustrates the fact that
women And it difficult to take their
bad habits as moderately as men do.
Their intense nervous systems al-
ways demand more, more. That’s
why they should never start any-
thing that can be done to excess,
drinking, drugs, gambling or gad-
ding.
More Interesting to twenty million
farmers than any other news Is the
birth In Canada of a calf weighing
157 pounds at birth. The mother,
of course, is a Holstein. The aver-
age weight of a new-born calf is
between eighty and ninety pounds.
If "artificial selection" could
raise the average weight of ealve
to the Canadian maximum, it wouM'
mean tens of millions increased
profit to farmers.
Old Silas Perdue Is a sociable

The tendency of the newest ad-
vance In radio art Is simplicity of
control. No longer is radio a com-
plicated mass of wires and controls
which discourage women In trying
to master lt One of the best and
simplest set# In the world Is the
one-tube, one knob set which takes
two hours to assemble and hook up.
With no manipulation all local sta-
tions can be tuned in quickly and
long distance stations as far away
as 2.500 miles can easily be reached.
Most of these sets will not, however,
support a loud speaker.
I am asked to explain the vari-
ations of a condenser. Variations
in condensers and colls correspond
to changing the tension and weight
of a piano string. Such an adjust-
ment, by changing the tuning,
changee what la called the “natural
frequency” of the radio tuner or
the musical string. This natural
frequency la the rate of vibration
which is the easiest for the tuned
system. If a piano string Is tuned
to the frequency of 280 cycles per
second, which la the pitch of middle
C, lt will give off a note of that
frequency whenever lt Is disturbed
or struck. That happens because
tuning the string to 256 cycles Is
nothing more than making Its nat-
ural frequency 256 cycles, so that
Its easiest, or natural rate of vi-
bration la 256 cydes per second.
TOUT
Don’t be discouraged If yon “cant
get anything” out of your set that
acted so well In the shop. Ths
cause Is probably not In the set
but in your aerial and your loca-
tion. r _
A brass plate condenser is NOT
