She was placed In a booth with other models and the saleswoman brought out a specially made hat for her. Soon the crowd tame and the display talks began. "Here," said the saleswoman, , "we have an attractive hat. It shows how the right color and shape can brighten ap a sallow skin and give softness fo thin features."

But John said ~ we wouldn't be all the time fishing or something. And we might as well spend our extra time reading some good stuff. Sam sald he'd read everything there was to read he guessed. John laughed, and then he named some books and asked Sam if he'd read them and Sam said no. John seemed to know a lot about good books for boys to read, so we got him to name us some that would be just right for summer reading. So he did. First he gave us Twain's "Ad- ventures of Tom Sawyer," of us had read. Then there was a Rutsebeck called "Alaska Man's Luck," which sounded interest. ing, and a pirate atory by Bennett called "Barnaby Lee." Some Adventure Books Other books he named were Steven- son's "Black Arrow." which is a story about an outlaw band in Eng- land, and Meader"s "Black Buccaneer," a story about a boy captured by pirates, Then he named a list of books about famous people written especially for boys. These were '"'Boys' King Arthur," by Malory; "Boys' Life of Abraham Lincoln," by Nicolay; "The Boys' Life of Edison." by Meadow- croft; and "Boys' Life of Theodore Roosevelt," by Hagedorn, who knew him real well. Another book by Mark Twain he told--us-to-reat--was--X Connecticut WHIG T | HUMOR PLAY | WORK And he suggested "The Cruisa of the Cachalot," by Bullen, & book about whale fishing. and "High Ad- venture," by Hail, which telis about fighting in France, Hall wus one of the fellows in the famous Lafayette Escadrille. Classics for Boys He told us we must be sure to read Kipling's 'Jungle Book." all about animals in India and a boy who was raised among them. Some good ad- venture stories. he said, are Ernst's "Mark of the Knife." which is a foot- ball story, Pyle's "Men of Iron." about knighthood, and Pyle's "Merry Ad- ventures of Robin Hood." And he sald we mustn't forget to read Scott, especially '"The Talisman," which hus in It about Richard, the Lion-Hearted. Another book most of us had read anyway, but which some of us are going to read again, is "The Threa Musketeers," by Dumas. It's a dandy book, all right. "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea,' by Verne, is another classic we mustn't miss. He sald he was sure we'd all like to read about "The Voyage of Captain Scott," who hunted the South Pole The book is by Turley. Another hook of fiction, by Altsheler, which he gave us is "Young Tratlers," a story of pioneer days, Altogether, he gave books.

CONNECTION OF PLATE CIRCU ! TERM There are two filamest termi. tals, one posi'ive-and ne nega. tive. The positive term'nul is. of course, the one connectad to the Dositive terminal of the "A" bat- tery, and the Jsegative 's the one connected to the negative battery terminal. In order to nave a cur. rent tlow in the plate ~ircuit and between the filament and plats within the tube it 1s ne :melary to connect that circuit to ane of the {lament termiuals. If ea connen- tion is made to the negat!ve fila ment terminal and the volage ap- plied to the filament is five volts the plate battery voltage will be opposed by one-half the voltage applied to the filament. This is be- cause the plate circu't current flows principally througd (he neg- ative side of 'he fl.ament and Is opposed by the filament current flowing in the opposite direction in that portion of the filament.

When a "soft" detector tube is used it is quite often aivisable to provide some means of varying the plate voltage in very small steps This can be done by connecting tha resistance unfit of a 300 (Lm po- tentlometer directly across the fil. ament battery and conaecting the sliding contact :o the nevative ter- minal of the plate (or "B") bat. tery, through the head tel *phones With a six voit slorage na tery for the filament and a 22% vult bat tery for the plate the voltage ap- plied to the plate may de varied in small steps a little abn/e and be- low 22% volts.
