THE OMAHA BEE:
Vacuum Tube Made
to List for Years
Care and Upkeep of Delicate
Pevice Require Much
Testing.
The care and upkeep of vacuum
tubes is work in itself, radio amateur
will find out.
A few suggestion relative to tubes
will not be amis.
In the first place, a vacuum tube
ha four contact that must be con
nected up correctly or the tube will
not operate. By looking at the socket
that comes for a tube it will be seen
that there are four binding posts.
These are marked G. P. F.' F. The
G stands for the grid, the P for the
plate, and the two marked F mean
that these are the point for the con
nection of the filament. A the tube
fit into what is known as a bayortet
locket, it will be found that it ran
not be put in incorrectly, but the be
ginner will have to be very careful
to tee that the binding posts are con
nected up right.
Usually the beginner burns out hi
first vacuum tube after a very short
time, or 'sometimes as won as the set
is connected up. Then there is al
ways the attempt to get a new tube
lor the one burned out, and usually a
few words with the dealer. These
tube are all tried out and are cor
rect before they leave the factory,
and usually the dealer himself tests
the tube before it leaves hi hands.
The beginner, however, does not
know this; and he invariably thinks
that the dealer has tried to "stick"
him. ' If the tube is bought at a
reputable radio house the beginner
can wager on it that the tube is all
right. If a vacuum tube is uecd
with care and connected into the cir
cuit correctly it should last for sev
eral years.
Test Tube Firit.
If the set is a home made one the
beit plan to follow is to connect the
storage battery first and try out the
filament. If the tube- does not light
you will know at once that there is
something wrong. Never connect the
B battery until you are absolutely
certain that the wiring is correct. If
the B battery is connected in such a
way that the current will flow
through the filament the filament will
last just about as long as it will take
you to wink your eye. When this
happens the best thing to do is to
throw the tube awav and buv an
other.
Grid Leak Necessary.
In any circuit that' uses a vacuum
tube it should be equipped with a
grid condenser and grid leak. The
latter piece of apparatus is not used
in ail sets, but it will be found that
if the value is riuht louder sienals
will be received on less battery con
sumption. .The grid condenser is ab
solutely essential and can not well
be dispensed with. Remember that
when a vacuum tube is used in the
circuit care will have to be used if
the tube is expected to give results,

tive. It is the standard house-lighting
current and is used almost uni
versally.
Direct Current Acurrent of elec
tricity that does not change its nolar
ity, but flows, all in a steady stream
m one direction, buch a current is
supplied by all sorts of dry batteries
and storage batteries. It is the only
kind that can be- used successfully
tor radio reception. The house
lighting current can be used even if
direct current is supplied. This is
because it is of too high a voltage,
and secondly because there will be a
hum connected with it on account of
the generator.
High-Frequency In the ordinary
house alternating current the cur
rent changes usually about 60 times
a second. This is called 60 cycle or
the frequency of the current. In
wireless this frequency is speeded up
many times by various kinds of ap
paratus and is called high fre
quency. The frequency frequently
reaches thousands of cycles or
changes per second, This high fre
quency is what causes the ether to be
disturbed sufficiently to make the
sending of a message possible. The
rectification of the alternating cur
rent thus produced is what is actual
ly heard in the receivers. Both
crystal and vacuum tube detectors
act as rectifiers.

Reform in Male Dress Is
in Full Swing in London
London, July 30. A male dress
reform is in full swing in London.
Sticklers for correct dress arc now
striving to displace dinner packets for
evening wear and insist upon males
appearing at evening functions in full
evening dress.
What with the Londoner's predi
lection fpr silk-hatted business attire
and frock-coated afternoon attire and
correct river dress and grey topper
racing garb, and "plus four" golfing
outfits, it looks like dire days for
those who haven't a wardrobe.
. American male visitors to London,
however, are shocking the natives
and demonstrating their freedom
from the slavery of clothes by wear
ing civilized garments.

Control of Coal Stocks

KonllnuM Kiam ri ,
"to canvas it situation a to tork
and requirement in order of tht pri
ority in different cle public util
ities, public iuktitiitkmt, household)
and industrial coal. .
"F.ach itate hat hnen asked to make
tuch rule and regulation a it may
tee fit to control speculation and dis
tribution within the boundaries of the
state. It has been suggested that the'
co-operation of state wholesale and
retail coal dealer associations should
be secured.
"Each state that must Import coal
from other state has been asked tn
create a central ttate agency or com
mittee for the purthater or guaran
tee of purchase of coal that may be
imported into the date from other
states or from abroad, all coal to he
consigned to an agency designated
by the state. By this arrangement a
great deaLtnore mobility is given the
state authorities in shitting coal to
meet it local emergencies Further
more, this agreement will remedy the
financial impossibility of asking coal
producers to ship to strange con
sumer whose reliability must be es
tablished. "The federal fuel distributor will
place these date central purchasing
agencies or committee in contact
with the coal producers in states
of coal surplus and will undertake
to see that coal is sold to the cen
tral purchasing agencies at a fair
price. The state purchasing agen
cies will indicate the destinations
within the state to which coal is to
be shipped.
"The federal distribution will pro
rate the available iunnlie between
states following the general basis of
priorities declared by the Interstate
Commerce commission.
"Where coal it already flowing
through natural channels to priority
concerns approved by the state agen
cy, it will continue, but it will form
part of the state quota.
"Whe whole plan is one of com
plete decentralization into the hands
of the state authorities, the federal
agencies acting solely in interstate
commerce."
Parisians Opposed to
Yank Traffic System
Paris, July 30. Should the great
cities of the world grow alike or
each try to keep its individuality?
Upon the answer to the question
will be based the decision of the citv
of Paris whether to adopt the red-green-white
light system ot traffic
guidance now in use on Fifth ave-'
nue, New York.
Opposition to the acceptance of
a proposal made by Dr. John A.
Harriss, designer ot the frifth ave
nue signals, to put such lights along
the Avenue de l'Opera is based upon
the feeling that they will give vis-
nuia 10 1113 a siercotvDea lmnres-
sion--that Americans will forget the
Deauty ot tne broad avenue and say:
"Isn't that just like Fifth avenne?"
This would hurt the pride of the
rrencn.
