Nothing to see but this eld country-side, and then to end up in a funny little lake, hidden In among the hills, Nobody ever re- alizes how big and pretty I am, away off here like this. "Wouldn't I love 'to be in a city park, though!" gurgled Silver Creek. "How wonderful that would be. Then I'd be appreciated. They'd plant lovely shrubbery all along the banks, and they'd make beautiful little bridges for me, all covered with vines, And so many, many people would Come and sit and look at me and talk about my beauty." "80 that's what You want," said a €ow who 'had come down to drink. *I can tell you you'd Bet pretty tired of ft I've been in a city myself. Was shipped through a city on my Way to the farm, and it was all smoke. There was a river there, too, but it was muddy.

She had gone off hastily, for an automobile had stopped beside the fence near the creek, and through the fence came half a dozen People carrying baskets. Gee," sald one, 'this is & swell place, Minnie, just like a park. Good a place for a picnic as any. Kinda nice and quiet, t00. Guess peuple don't often drive 'way out here. Iet's Stop here, huh? Silver Creek bubbled with - pride, "Just like in a park!" The 'people Bat down and ate their lunch. Then Into the creek went the papers and banana peelings, and all the refuse. <..

A look of resentment He loathed his He hid himself In the coal bin and re- fused to be coaxed out even for his He finally died of starvation. The terrier's courage is equally as strong as its affection. The following true instance illustrates this fact. A man wag walking down a dark Street In New York City to his home. He 'had been out for an evening's stroll with. his terrier which was play- ing along at his side. On coming to an alley a burly fellow jumped out ofthe shadows and attacked the man with the dog. hitting him over the head with a heavy club. The highwayman was about t®%trike another blow but before he cddld do 80, the terrier leaped up at the man's throat and sunk his teeth. The dog held on til! his master had time to regain his senses and start running up the street to safety. Then the dog let go of the hold-up and ran after his master, but first he tore a piece from the man's suit coat The terrier gets its name from "'terra,* tin for "earth." The dog is most re rkable, pechaps, for the eagerness a courage with which it will attack lall quadrupeds from rats to the fox. There are numerous varieties of ter- riers--the Alredale terrier, Irish ter- rier, Skye terrier, bull terrier, etc., but the fox terrier' probably is the variety most popular and best known among boys and girls of to-day. The fox ter- rier not only is a good sporting dog, but an excellent house animal. It is not a large dog--the preferred weight being in the neighborhood of seven- teen pounds. There are two types of fox terriers, the smooth and wire-haired. They are identically the same, except in thelr coats. Both types are of the same build. The skull Is flat and mod- erately narrow, the cheeks are not full, the ears, of moderate thickness, aro V-shaped and small, the nose black, and the eves dark in color. The terrier's neck is muscular and not throaty. Its shoulders are long and sloping and the chest, instead of hav ing great breadth, is deep No dog makes a better and more loyal pal. \ . E. H.LrEwr INSTRUCTOR NEW YORK. Y M.C.A. RADIO ScHoOL MULTI-STAGE AUDIO FREQUENCY AMPLIFICATION. If the signal strength after rec- tification of the oscillatione can- not be brought up to sufficient value in ope amplifier tube it is Decessary to use more in what is known as cascade connection. The connections are shown in the cir- cuit diagram, whi b is, no doubt, quite familiar to »1l. Two stages of amplification are shown after the detector tube, Hut three may be used quite nicely if care is taken. If the voltage transforma- tion ratio of the first transformer is eight the voltage variation: ap- plied to the grid of the first ampli- fler tube are eight times greater than the voltage from the detector. In this case the negative grid bias in this first tube may be one volt with a « rtain ube. It would at any rate be comparatively low, and the voltage drop across a portion of the filament rheostat might be used to advantage. Assuming that the tube has a voltage amplifica- tion constant of five. und the next transformer a step-up ratio of nine, the vcitage variations ap- plied to the grid or the second am- plitfer tube are 320 times as great as the voltage from the detcetor and considerably higher than the voltage variations applied te the grid of the first amplifier tute. In the plate eircuit, then, there are audio frequency variations 1,600 times greater than those in the plate circuit of the detector tube because the second an.pliffer tube is also assumed to have an ampl!- fication factor of five. With a far signal voltage applied to the grid of the detector tut: there should be a very good response in the head telephones, if connected into the plate circuit of the second am- plifier tube. The negative bias voltage on the grid of the second amplifier tube might have to be Somewhat higher than one volt, however, for best results with the average tube. "The plate poteitia) might also have to be increased over that ol the 'irst amplifier tube. In prac ce, however, it is Quite common to make the grid bias potential the same in both cases and use one plate battery, the sar e plate poteatial. for both amplifier tubes. even though this does not always give maximum Possible resuits. The simplifica- tion of operation is presumed to compensate for any loss in efficl- ency which mi 't occur. In some cases, thoug., a sli_htly variable grid biasing voltage may be se- cured, and it can often be made great enougk for practical pur- poses. Because a cortain audio fre- quency transformer has an ex- tremely high transformation ratio it does not necessarily follow that it is the best to use with a given tube. The trapsformer should be designed especially for the tube with which iu {8 t he used. Since all but the last amplifier tube nor- mally function as voltage ampli- fiers, it is especially desirable to have a transformer whose primary impedance a. average frequency at least equals the plate to fila- ment resistance (output resist ance) of the tube it is used with. It head telephones are used. it is generally fou that there will be sufficient power in the plate cir- cuit of an ordinary amplifier tube to operate them, particularly fr thelr impedance equals the inter- nal resistance of the tube at the average audio fraquancy, If a loud speaker f{s necersary, however, power amplification, instead of voltage amplification, is required. | | | | I DAINTY WEDNESDAY, JULY 5, 1922.
