"[ " i i ¦. In emphasizing the growing appre- ciation for storage batteries, Mr. Abel called attention to the storage "B" battery manufactured by the company he represents. "Practically every radio fan of experience," said Mr. Abel "realizes that partially exhaust- ed or poorly constructed B' batteries of the dry cell type, cause undesirable noises in the phones. Most of these can be eliminated through the use of storage *B' batteries, whose voltage re- mains high throughout their discharge. When exhausted they can be recharg- ed the same as any 'A' battery."

Thousands of prmer crystal set users felt that the ie had arrived for them to build buy a tube set. These radio fans, augmented by lousands of others who are daily he- lming converted to this fascinating )rm of entertainment, rushed to their earest hardware store and quickly )upht up a stock of dry cells which, to that time had been generally >ld for the purpose of ringing elec- fic bells or furnishing ignition for engines. Sure enough, these dry cells did ing in the distant stations.
