THE COLBORNE EXPRESS, COLBORNE, ONT., THURSDAY, NOV. 17, 1927 ANOTHER WORD OF WARNING ABOUT RADIO SETS As predicted last year, radio without batteries, chemicals, chargers, attachments, etc., are now the standard, iln another year or so battery-operated sets will be obselete, almost wortheless, wherever current is avail- Those considering the purchase of a radio operating without batteries should bear this in mind: There are two types of "electric" radio--(1) those that are built to operate direct from a light „ocket, made in one fac-[tory, complete in one cabinet--all ready to operate, and--(2) ordinary electric sets that can be "adapted" to light-socket operation by installing a so-called power unit, which power unit generally consists of a 'B" Elim-^ator, a storage battery and a i charger. You still have the "A" battery; you still have chemicals, but (the charger is connected to a light socket, and so they are termed "socket-power." This latter type serves very well for those who already have a battery operated set, but : cannot afford to turn it in for a new genuine Batteryless Model, but when buying a new radio supposedly "Bat- teryless," be sure to get the type that is completely batteryless and built to be so. Of this type the "Rogers Batteryless' is the only one with any record of proven performance behind it. Conceived in 1923 and introduced in 1925, it is the first and only time-tested radio set, complete in one cabinet, made in one factory and operating direct from any alternating current socket (and in most cases it needs aerial). Moreover the Rogers was conceived, developed, perfected and made right in Canada and was the world's first Batterless A/C radio set. Producing such a set that will give uniform performance in all localities under all conditions is not easy. The first year or two brings grief. Now, In its third year, with thousands of sets in active operation from coast to "coast the Rogers has proven Don't experiment. It may cost you dearly. Look for the name "Rogers; look for the Rogers A/C Tubes with the top clips and be sure then you'" have no regrets later.--Advt. Spend 10 Ped Cent, of Income on Pleasure "At least ten per cent, of whatever income one has should be invested in ! pleasure," advises liabeth Marbury, (writing in the November issue of '"Delineator." Here is some more of the advice given by this "wise woman" to work-nen, and particularly crifice all to their to those Jobs. hard earned pennies. This is bad reasoning. .Relaxation is the oil which makes the wheels of life go round. "Some enjoyment is necessary. K is the relief from tension. It is as necessary to the brain as bread is to the body. "Nothing ages one so fast as to live in dullness. One's vitality becomes sapped, one's outlook becomes warped. Doing anything is better than oine lothin "It often costs money but amuse -ments are not as expensive as doc "How many old fashioned peopli refuse to spend on pleasures. They pinch and save and believe that to g to the movies, to the theatre or t listen to music is a waste of thei What is wrong with the tea? If this question is ever asked at the table you may find that the tea you are using was in a poor package. Careful experiments have proven that Aluminum is the only fit package to keep good tea in. You should try Red Rose Tea and see how fresh and brisk and pungent it is in the Aluminum package. 10T A "Vital" Problem London Daily Mail (Ind. Cons.): Farming is more profitable than ever, and in various districts wheat-growing is being abandoned altogether. If things are left as they are the ploughlands of Britain, except in a few favored localities, will fall out of cultivation. What is going to be done to avert that national catastrophe? It is" not alone the Farmers' Union but the community as a whole which waits impatiently for an answer. It wants to know how the Government proposes to deal with the problem which was certified to be "vital" in October, 1924. . These international golf tournaments bring to notice some important links of Anglo-American amity.

In nearly all cases this condition, which doctors usually describe as general debility, is due to poor blood--blood that is deficient in red corpuscles.

Parents Punish to Salve Own Ego That most children are punished not to make them better but because the parent is angry or has had his ego wounded is revealed by Winthrop D. Lane writing in the November issue of "Delineator Magazine." "Parents have certain pictures of themselves," points out Mr. Lane, "Certain conceptions of themselves, and they do not like to have these disturbed. Even a child, if he steps on an adult's ego, is likely to regret it. 'And then we have to admit that children are nuisances. Love them as we may, cherish them as tenderly as we wish, they annoy us tremendously. They make us climb th< stairs at night to give them drinks they disobey us; they endanger oui property by striking matches. They break things--the lose things. They pile all the chairs in one corner of the room and call it a steamboat. They trail mud through the house; they leave marks on .the walls. They break out In new misconduct every day.

The colonel's orders to his batman at camp were: To call him first thing, tel him the time, fetch him some tea, and say how the weather was. In the morning the batman went in and reported: "It's 6 o'clock, sir; here's your tea, and the weather's fine." The Colonel's haughty reply was: "I know, I know, I know."
