'With the coming of more modern forms of writing by the use of a set of simple symbols, picture-writing be- gan to disappear. it was Wich an early form of expression it has a romantic appeal for us to-day, and this, coupled with the fascination of any secret code, makes ploture- writing one of the most interesting forms of secret communication, There is no set code of pictures to be used in writing picture messages, You simply use pictures to express Yourself, The message printed In the picture above is Interpreted in this manner: The first sketch represents the ris- ing sun, end is taken to mean "'to- morrow morning." The house is that of the writer of the letter, and the figure walking up to the house repre- sents (as it is labelled) the figure of the one to whom the letter is ad- dressed. The message thus far says: "To-morrow morning come over to my house." You will note that two figures are shown walking away from the house and toward a hill which has some objects on top of It that resem- ble trees. This addition to the mes- Sage says: "--and you and I will walk to Wooded HILL" After the sketch of Wooded HIM there is one that resembles a camp- fire, and following this is a sketch of a sandwich and a can of something. Add this to the message, then: "There we will make a fire, and eat our sand- wiches and beans." The sketch of the canoes, which fol- lows that of the food, means that after eating, the two hikers will go for a trip on the lake, and then, as in- dicated by the pictures that follow, when dusk comes, they will head for home. Try writing a picture Jetter to a friend and see if he can understand what you mean to say.

Then he heard another voice over the wireless. He recognized it as Brock's voice and Brock did not seem In the best of tempers with the girls. "You oughtn't to butt in and try to stop anything, Ruth--not when it has gone as far as that thing did last night.

RADIO ScHooL THE GRID BIASING BATTERY. If the common connection ot the grid and filament circuits is made at the negative termina' of the fila- ment there will be a normal nega- tive grid poteuial of abomt 234 volts. The grid will, therefore, be atl the same potential as the lowest potential on the filament, and the Potential of the grid. with respect to the filament, 1s zero. If must be borne in mind that it is the low. est potential point on the filament to which the grid potential must be referred when determining whether or not a grid current will tiow. In this case of zero ditfer- ence of potential any positive ap- plied potential will cause a grid current to flow and will reduce the grid to fllament resistance within the tube. When this occurs power {s taken by the circuit. and the pos- itive half cycle of input voltage fis reduced. This has bee.. explained previously, In order to raise the normally applied negative grid potential to & value which will be at all times great enough to prevent grid cur- rent a grid biasing battery may be used. The voltage of the battery will depend upc the amplitade of the input voltage. but, in any case, its negative terminal should be connected to the grid. In order to Secure a close variation of this po- tenial, which is frequentiy desira- ble. the resistance unit of a poten- tiometer (about 400 ohms total re- sistance) may be connected ' di- rectly across the battery. The slid- ing contact may then be connected to the grid, so that the srid poten- tial is always aegative, but varia- ble. The battery need not be of large size, since no current is taken from it. '* may be made up or ordinary flashlight cells. This wattery is sometimes referred to as a "C" battery to distinguish ft from the filament lighting, or "A" battery, and the plate, or "B" bat: tery, APPARATUS DEVICES By RALPH BROWN, RADIO ENGINEER A RECEIVING SET WITH BUILT.N LOUD SPEAKER.
