W. C. T. U. CONVENTION.
Holt County W. C. T. U. conven
tion met at Page Wednesday, August
2<>th, with a large delegation both
from Atkinson and O’Neill attending.
A splendid program was enjoyed by
all. Luncheon and dinner was served
to delegates and visitors by the Page
union. The annual address was de
livered by County President Mrs. E.
Harris in her usual pleasing manner,
subject, “Keeping Abreast With the
Times.’ She said, The success of this
organization has been brought about
by keeping up with the times and
through the ability of our leader to
see far into the future. The W. C.
T. U. pioneers living tcday owe much
of their present vigor to their interest
in matters outside themselves, outside
their homes. They have not vegetat
ed. They have not sat at home and
thought about their aches and pains,
their troubles and grievances. They
have thought of others and have
given of their energy in service to
the community. Now in their old age
they have the physical and mental
vigor to enjoy the results of that
service. While other women who sat
behind the family stove and led se
dentary, narrow, introspective lives
have yielded to ailments of middle
age.
The county officers elected for the
new year are: President, Mrs. Mae
Martin, O’Neill; Secretary, Mrs. Kate
Kirkland, Atkinson; Treasurer, Mrs.
Etta Bressler, O’Neill. ***
GET AT THE CAUSE!
Many O’Neill Polks Are Showing How
1 o Avoid Needless Suffering.
There’s nothing more annoying than
kidney weakness or inability to prop
erly control the kidney secretions.
Night and day alike, the sufferer is
tormented and what with the burning
and scalding, the attendant backache,
headache and dizziness, life is indeed
a burden, Doan’s Pills—a stimulant
diuretic to the kidneys—have brought
peace and comfort to many O’Neill
people. Profit by this O’Neill resi
dent’s experience:
M. H. Hayden, prop, of grocery
store, says: “I had a dull, nagging
pain across my kidneys and when
bending sharp, severe pains darted
through the small of my back. Morn
ings my muscles seemed to be sore
and lame and backache made me feel
irritable and lame all over. My kid
neys acted so often I was up during
the night to pass the secretions.
Doan’s Pills corrected the trouble.

: Outdoor Aerial
Should Be Grounded
With the coming of summer weat ier,
all users of radio receiving sets should
provide their aerials with a suitable
switch for grounding when not In use.
Any conductor of electricity Insulated
from the ground wSi, <n certain kinds
of weather, accumulate a charge of
static electricity and discharge Into the
ground or any neutral body at the first
opportunity.
In times of thunderstorms this charge
's more severe and becomes a real men
ace to the receiving set If not properly
grounded. On the other hand, the
serial, If leading to ground through a
switch, is a genuine protection to the
property.
An ordinary single-pole, double
throw switch, of a size depending upon
’lie size of the aerial, should be placed
outside the building at the point where
lie lead-in enters. The aerial Is con
nected to the middle post of the switch,
snd the ground and receiving set to the
two outside posts, respectively. During
a storm, or when not In use, the switch
should then be left In the grounded po
sition.—The Chiropractor and Clinical
Journal.
The Small Condenser
Can Be Made of Wire
Grid condensers and other small con
densers can be quickly made by leaving
the Insulation on the wires and twist
ing them together like In making a
regular soldered joint. The longer the
splice the greater the capacity of lhe
condenser. The capacity of these con
densers can be made of any value by
connecting them In series and parallel
In different combinations.
These condensers are very compact
and w hen wrapped with a piece of tape
they will stand the hardest kind of
rough usage.
Weapon* of Warfare
of American Indian*
Though some Indians were more
proficient at it than others, and the
methods of some tribes were more ad
vanced than those of others, there
was very little secret about the mak
ing of warlike Implements, und all the
Indians knew how. Flints and similar
stones were used not so much because
of their hardness as for the reason
they coulu be flaked off and fashioned
into desired shapes as arrow, lance,
spear or harpoon heads, knives, saws
or scrapers. The flint was to be found
In open fields, bowlder beds and else
where, and the tribes camped occa
sionally near the larger supplies to
break off with rocks or hammers the
quantities and sizes of flint chips
needed. These were carried home, to
be flaked off and worked into shape
with the nld of sharp-pointed Imple
ments of bone. The waste and refuse
of the process, as well as the tools
employed In It, have often been found
on the sites of early Indian dwellings.
The products of this primitive indus
try range in size from tiny arrow tips
to ceremonial spear heads more than
a foot long.—Cleveland Plain-Dealer.

Fair Voter—I wouldn’t care to oc

Says Her Baby Cries
for Radio, Then More
Babies now cry for radio. The new
national pastime has Invaded the nurs
ery, and many mothers are adopting
radio waves as pacifiers. A mother
of six children, the oldest eleven years
old, writes WGY, the Schenectady
broadcasting station, that her youngest
child, aged fourteen months, Is already
a fan. Mrs. Robert Barber of Rensse
laer, N. Y., writes as follows:
“I wonder If it would Interest you to
know that I think I have the young
est radio listener. My baby is four
teen months old and she walks to the
desk where I have my crystal set and
points for me to open It. When there
t* anything she sits with the ear
phones Just as nice as any large per
son, but as soon as It stops she takes
off the phones and starts to scold for
■tore,
“I have six children and they all like
to listen. I have two Bets of phones
and they separate them.’’

Hints to Amateurs
Who Wind Their Own
Here Is a hint for those amateurs
who “wind their own’’ colls for vario
couplers, variometers, etc., on card
board tubes. We have all been warned
time and again regarding the ill ef
fects following the shellacking of such
colls to keep the wire In place after
It Is wound, the said 111 effects being
capacity or a condenser-like action be
tween the wire and the shellacked
covering, .which causes a certain de
gree of choking ef the signals.
This difficulty was overcome In the
following way: The cardboard tubes
are thoroughly dried in a warm oven
and then given a coat of shellac both
Inside and out. As soon as this has
dried the outside Is given another
coat. This should leave the surface
quite glossy.
The wire Is then wound In the usual
manner, the ends being secured
through holes in the edges of the tube.
The wire is then "painted” with wood
alcohol, which the covering absorbs
greedily; then the coll Is set away
to let the alcohol evaporate. Keep it
away from fire. The alcohol softens
the shellac and this In turn sticks to
the cotton covering of the wire where
It is In contact with the tube. It will
be found that the wire Is held secure
ly enough for couplers and vario
meters also the rotors of these, but
not for tuning colls with which a
slider Is used.
Grid Leak Takes the
“Fry” Out of the Set
The amateur who has a one or two
stage audio frequency amplifier on his
set is well acquainted with the hiss or
frying sound it gives forth when op
erating at its best or highest capacity.
By placing a grid leak across the sec
ondary of the last amplifying trans
former nearly all the frying and hiss
ing noise can me eliminated without
noticeably reducing the signal strength.
■ —. i ■■■ ...
When static is real bad the strength
of the leak can bo increased to where
it will take the harshness out of the
static, but It will reduce the signals
somewhat.
The ordinary grid leak consisting of
pencil marks on a strip of paper can
be used, but best results are secured
by making these lines with ordinary
black drawing ink. %
To Make a Mounting
for “W. P. 11” Tube
It is in some places Impossible to
purchase a socket for the “W. P. 11”
tube (generally called the “peanut”
tube) at any price.
With a piece of bakellte three
Inches square, four binding posts and
some spring brass wire one can be
made. The spiral part of the wire is
I zz-Z-I
bent around a six-penny wire finishing
nail flrqily held In a vise for the three
small contacts, and the one for the
“grid” contact (which is larger on this
tube) is bent around a twenty-penny
spike.
The inside of the colls is brightened
with a rat-tall file to insure contact
This socket works perfectly, and the
natural springiness of the wire takes
up any sudden jar. *

SHORT CIRCUITS
The successful radio amateur Is
generally a man of parts.
An eastern radio club wants a suit
able design for a club pin. How
would a crystal set In platinum do?
Doctor De Forest says that radio
has fired the imagination of youth. We
know some youths whose Imaginations
might well be fired.
When your Ice bill comes In, don’t
grumble. Think of the fellow who has
to provide for the wide range of the
radio broadcast
If the loud speaker on your radio Is
unsatisfactory, how would you like to
have a desk next to a fellow who yells
all day over the telephone?
A loading cell Is an Inductance con
nected In the antenna circuit to re
ceive longer wave lengths than the
natural wave length of the antenna.
A man buys a radio set, not so much
to hear a great orchestra, but to tune
that orchestra In and out and thereby
show the musicians that they have
nothing on him when It; comes to bring
ing out harmony.
A prominent government official
writes that the poor quality of music
furnished by the smaller radio sta
tions Is handicap to radio development
In the smaller towns. He believes that
by redistributing the output of the
high-grade stattoas much better prog
ress will be made.
