'Radio Pest' Has
Enteral Field
Amateurs Have Job on Hand
to Eliminate Butting
DiiturbancrV.
Atready, the radio 'pen' hive
u'n tn air.
If Federal Radia Intnrrmr I. R
Schmitt of Chicago ran locate them.
With the interlrrrnce of Katie dur
ing tbe warm mom ha. radio aniatmrs
have difficult enough time catching
in concern, news and entertain
mentt from th ether. Then enter
the "pest" According to radio
amateurr, he Is one who persists in
interrupting broadcaiting programs
by flashing signals.
The elimination of the "radio
pt is largely up to the fans them'
selves, becaute the United Statei
radio inspector. Mr. Schmitt. h
practically no aid in policing the 12
late under hie. jurisdiction. It i
therefore up to the fans themielvei
to search out the peiti. warn them
and if the interference continue, to
not'fy Mr. Schmitt.
Many "pen" do not realize that
they are spoilsports and that they
are robbing hundreds of their neigh
bore of the plrature of hearing high
ly skilled artiMs in musical (elections.
In the fact that there are only two
broadcasting stations in Omaha at
the present time, there is not much
interference by signals until the high,
powered stations elsewhere start
buzzing in.
New Invention Does
Away With Antennae
Chicago. May 19. A new type of
radio receiving device without an
tenna, electrical power line connec
tion, or any assisting apparatus ex
cept several yards of wire tacked on
the back of the cabinet which houses
the set. was announced today by
B. F. Miessner, radio engineer.
Adequate reception of signals is
accomplished by a sttper-amplifier
which, according to Mr. Miessner,
magnifies the signal about fifty times
more than the ordinary three tube
amplifier, rendering it fully as aud
ible as signals received with a real
antennae. The receiving set is sim
plified, .having only a button to turn
on the power, generated in small
storage batteries also housed in the
cabinet, and a dial on which the wave
lengths are marked. After adjust
ing the one dial to the wave length
on which the operator wishes to re
ceive, no other adjustments are nec
essary. In a demonstration today, signals
from Kyw broadcasting station. Chi
cago, were plainly received with the
cabinet in an inside office of a large
building.
. "It would work just as well if the
cabinet were buried SO feet under
ground" Mr. Miessner said.

He did not tell her that the cause
of her failure had been pitifully ap

and for a moment her soft cheek
touched his hand that Still lay 00
her shoulder.
She frit the quiver that ran
through Koystoti'a tall figure as he
drew it gently away.
"You must go now," he said; he
took her hand and raised it to bis

another word, turned and strode off
into tha night
Elisabeth crept back to the house
and upstairs, feeling as if she walked
on air; every nerve in her body was
tingling with wild happiness; he
loved her, he had kissed her. After
all these weeks of unhappiness she
had known the joy of being held in
his arms.
Her failure was forgotten: Mme.

isted; life seemed to have opened
suddenly at her feet in blase of
sunshine.
She undressed and crept into bed.

hippy to close her eyes.
Tomorrow she would see him
again, and perhaps they need never
part any more; that was her last
nappy thought before she fell into
t dreamless sleep.
In the morning Mme. Senestis
kept to ber room and Elizabeth was
left severely alone.
She did not care. She was quite
happy with her own dreams and the
swert memory of last night. ,
When Neil Farmer came, soon
after breakfast, he stared at her in
amazement; he had expected to find
her crushed and tear-stained, but her
eyes were bright and her cheek
rosy.
"Why why do you look at me
ike that?" she asked, and he laughed
ruefully as he answered:
sou look so happy I Anyone

For him. "Well. I'm not aoinsr to
worry; it's no good."
He looked at her with a little sus
picion in his handsome eyes.
'Have you seen the papers this
morning?" he asked. -
Papers? she echoed, not under
standing. "Oh, you mean about last
night I No. were they very nasty to

way of consolation, "and He used
frankly Jo admit that he reviews de

true, too, 1 ant lure."
Elisabeth was not Interested. She
had swept her fadurt into the rag
bag of the past; the future wn all
that mattered.
"Where is madame?" Farmer ask

her head.
"She isn't up yet; she's done with
me, you know."
" es; well, you need not sUy here

"Eluabeth. you're not very kind.
Don't you think that you owe me
something? Just s little considera

she gave little gasp.
"You me that money," alio said
in dr.pair, "Oh, I know I know."
"I was no thinking of that," he
answered. "Let the muuey go; we'll
