Concert by a 300 piece orchestra to bo given Monday night, January 21, at .the Auditorium, will be broadcast by padto, it was announced yesterday. The, concert will be under the aus pl^aK of the Omaha Musicians’ as sociation. All professional musicians in fhe stale have been invited to attend.

Important among other indications that tills year will sen a vastly in creased demand for automobiles Is the "Buy Now” campaign which lias just been launched by the Ford Motor company. Particular significance may be attached to this, coining as it does at the start of the year, for no company is better situated to sense future conditions in the motor car field nor keep more closely In touch with the temper of the motor buying public. Nurse Makes Small Radio Sets for Bedridden Hospital Patients Concerts Brought to the Sick Room hy Using Bed Springs as Aerial. A new way of distributing happi ness has been found by Fay Parks, senior nurse at Clarkson hospital. She makes individual radio sets for patients at the hospital. With these sets the bedridden patients are able to hoar a concert every evening and church services on Sunday. Miss Parks became interested In radio herself last September and erected a small radio set at the nurse's home. When patients heard of the concerts enjoyed by the nurses, some expressed a desire to have a radio. "1 have made more than a dozen tor the patients," said Miss Parks. "It is very easy to fix them for 1 have always been interested in electri cal things. Only Small Sets. "The radio sets for the bedside are only small ones of a single coll. The sets are called crystal sets and for the aerial the bed springs or special attachment on the electric light' plug io used," she explained. "t buy the equipment for the patients witli their money, put the sets together and attach them. I make weekly rounds to keep them in order, "it gives tho sick ones pleasure and 1 am glad to do It for them,'' said tlie nurse, modestly. Miss Parks is from Neligh, Neb. Her mind is of scientific trend, she says, ami she hopes to continue tier work for the most part in a labora tory of some hospital. Patients Compare Notes. The patients with radio are busy comparing notes on the concerts heard, according to Miss H. C. Harris, superintendent of the hospital. “One woman, Mrs. T. C. Wright Enjoy Winter Evenings With a Cutting & Washington Radio When cold weather keeps you by) the fireside—it is then that you will really enjoy a Cutting & Washing* ton radio set. The news and entertainment of thei world at your finger tips! A source of entertainment kind instruction for every member of the family. Vears of designing U. S. Navy Radio Equipment have given a reputation to Cutting & Washington second to none in the field. You’ll find here a set to meet your purse. Come in and let us show you. * UM lfrB Dodie St. - ”- OmTlu. > ^-. ’TTTv . Ta.y Pa tics , .' < of Long Pine, Nel>., told me that hours In the evcDirig do not drag when she can listen to the concerts I at dinner time," said Miss Harris. "I have a large radio set myself and patients are interested In reports of concerts received on my radio from the outside.” Mrs. Wright has been at Clarkson hospital for three years, fihe de clared that the days with radio seemed shorter thaii those without radio. Miss Parks visits Mrs. Wright often to keep her radio in order. All her hours off duty are spent In build ing and adjusting radio sets.

Reflex Circuit Boosts Signals By WILLIAM J. 8CHXELL Radio ItBflDMrinr Staff. Kleotrtral Reoeorrh laboratories. Chlraso. To the average radio enthusiast a certain amount of interest is derived from adventures in building and op srattng his own receivers. Satisfying is this may be. many evidence a par ticular desire to understand the why and wherefores of .the functioning of their receivers. To the prospective builder also appeals the knowledge of the characteristics of various receiv ers in order to better equip him in his selection of the circuit for his receiver. It is to these particular merits of a reflex receiver for prac tical successful and efficient nirera lion: 1. The rrfiex ? tinn should not he extended to more than one tu^e for stable operation. 2. Straight radio or straight audio added is desirable, but not more re flexing stages. 3. The radio frequency amplifier should be of such construction as to permit of variable tuning, if selectiv ity and maximum amplifier effici ency is to be obtained. 4. A crystal rectifier of the correct classes of the radio public to which this article Is particularly directed. The principle of the reflex circuit depends on the ability of a three elec trode vacuum tube to permit currents of different frequencies to pass through It at the same time. The frequency of the currents Induced In a radio antennae system are very rapid In their cyclic changes, varying in value from about 500 to 1,000 kilo cycle* per second, depending on wave lengths. This Incident current In the antenna system Is generally termed the radio frequency current. It Is not possible to cause such high frequenev currents In this rapid changing form to actuate directly on a device to convert electrical current variations Into sound waves (receivers), in a reflex system these radio frequency currents are usually amplified to in crease their Intensity before impress ing them on the rectifier or ■detector, which converts these high frequency currents Into currents of audible fre quency. After rectification these cur rents are then amplified as were the radio currents by a three electrode vpcuuro tube. Here lies the difference In and particular advantage of the reflex system over other systems. In other systems after rectification the rectified radio or audio currents ore amplified by additional tubes for this purpose. In a reflex system before these input radio frequency currents are rectified they are relmpressed back on the tubes which amplified them at radio frequency, and when rectified are reampllfied at audio fre quency before being passed on to the receiver# or loud speaker to be con verted to sound waves. , If properly designed and built, more than vacuum tube economy can he aecured from reflexlng. In the foregoing I have shown the action of the rerex principle anil pointed out the various methods of performance and the advantages and disadvantages of each. I will now sum marize the findings into the require design will afford the most efficient rectifier for the circuit. 5. The audio transformer is of prime Importance in the maximum of reflex action. The accompanying illustration is of the Erla three-tube circuit. The necessary door stop can also be decorative if one chooses p gaily painted parrot or an old fashioned basket of flowers. \ -1 New Lamp Has No Wick or Chimney Most Brilliant Home Light Known—Costs One Cent a Might. A new lamp which has no wick or chimney, yet. according to ext>erts. gives the most powerful home light in the world, is the latest achieve ment of W. C. Fowler, 277 Factory building. Kansas City, Mo. This re markable new- lamp beats gas or elec tricity—gives more light than 300 candles, 18 ordinary lamps or 10 bril liant electric lights; and costs only one cent a night. A blessing to every home, especially on firm or in small town. It is absolutely safe, and gives universal satisfaction. No dirt, no smoke, no odor. A child r.in carry it. It is the ambition of Mr. Fowler to have every home, store, hall or thurch enjoy the increased comfort of this powerful, pleasing, brilliant white light, and he will send one of his new lamps on free trial to any reader of The Omaha Bee who writes him. He wants one person to whom he can refer new customers. Take advantage of his free offer. Agents wanted Write him today.—Advertlse men t.— Two New Models Shown.
