Dart, Compiler of the Radlo Operator's Course for the Iater- national Correspondence Schools. Article 2.--A Crystal Detector Re- ceiving Set. From the antenna a the signals are brought through a coil b of about 80 turns of No. 24 double-cotton cov- f ered copper wire wound in one layer | jon a cardboard cylinder = about 1 inches in diameter. Taps should be | provided at one end>of the coil 50 {that the number of turns actually in |use can be adjusted in steps of 1 {turn. The circuit then goes through | | variable alr condenser ¢, one with | !a maximum capacity of 0.001 mlcro- |farad (a unit of electrical capacity) usually being ample. Such a size cor- | |Tesponds roughly 'with a condenser {made of 43 semicircular plates of {about 3 inches in diameter. Anten- Inas of some characteristics may not {need this antenna condenser, but it |1s usually required when recelving | signals on wave-lengths below 1,000 | meters. On the long wave-lengths, {the condenser should be connected In { . TELEPHONE CONDENGER | parallel with. the primary coil, while jon intermediate wave lengths the | condenser would be shorteircuited or removed from the circuit entirely. Another coil d is then placed so as to receive energy from the primary coil. This second coil, commonly called the secondary, may be made of about 160 turns of No. 28 double- {cotton covered wire wound on a cardboard cylinder which will slide | In St. Mary's Cemetery to Ro- man Catholic Soldiers and Sailors. An event important to soldiers and their relatives is to take place a' St. Mary's cemetery on Sunday after- noon, Sept. 10th, under the auspices of Archbishop Spratt, Major-General Sir A. C. Macdonell, Brig.-Gen. Elms- ley, G.0.C., M.C. No 3, and Mayor Corbett. It will be the unveiling easily into the primary cylinder. Four or five taps or more should be brought out to one end of this coil | 80 that the number of turns in use | can b& adjusted by large steps. A variable air condenser e in parallel | with the secondary coil permits of | fine adjustments of this circuit to the desired wave-length. About the same size of condenser should be used here as was used in the primary namely, one of about 0.001 microfar- ad capacity. From the secondary condenser one side of the eircuit | goes to a crystal detector unit f. The essential parts of this device comprise a fairly large crystal of galena orsilicon against which a fine piece of spring bronze wire (called a cat whisker) makes a light contact. Galena, due to its extreme sensitive- ness, is the most widely used mater- fal in this field, although it may hold its sensitiveness for only a few min- | utes at a time. All crystals of any one material are not equally sensi- tive, nor are all spots on any one | crystal as good as all others. For! this reason, it is best to try out many | points on the crystal by moving tha metallic point from place to placa and listening. Some points will be | found which give stronger signals than do others, and the former | should be used. | The circuit from the crystal detec- tor to the remaining terminal of the | secondary condenser is completed by | a set of telephone receivers g of | about 2,000 ohms resistance. Since | | much of the success of receiving da-| pends upon the receivers, it is desir- | able to purchase a good quality set It is desirable in most cases to eon i nect a small fixed condenser h in par- | allel with the receivers. This may | be an air condenser of 0.0006 micro- | farad capacity, corresponding In | size with one made of 11 circular | plates about 3 inches in diameter. | | 1 | | | | | of the granite monument to all Roman Catholic soldiers and waijors | who were killed or died during the great war 'and are buried in st. | Mary's cemetery. The monument was donated to the Army and Navy Veterans by the McCallum Granite Company ,this city, and will receive perpetual care by the War Graves Commission. There will be a parade of all troops in the city, including mounted troop of the R.M.C.,, R.C.H.A., R.C. G.A., troops of the garrison, and all veterans. The ceremony will com- mence at 3 p.m. The programme will open with "Nearer My God to Thee" by the R.C.H.A. band, followed by | the singing of a hymn by the boys' | choir of St. Mary's cathedral of one hundred voices. Next will be the un- velling; the "Last Post" thy the trumpeters of the R.C.H.A.; formal presentation of the monument to St. Mary's diocese; address by Capt. the Rev. Father Nicholson, a representa- tive of the dominion cabinet, Brig.- Gen, Ross, M.P., W. F. Nickle,M.P.P,, placing of wreath by Major-Gen. Sir Archibald Macdonell; solemn libera | by Archbishop Spratt, assisted by the boys' choir of St. Mary's cathedral. "God Bave the King" by the band will' conclude the programme, Two years ago Fallon Bros." pre- sented a gray granite monument, which was unveiled in Cataraqui cemetery, on the soldiers' and sail- ors' plot, The present monument is of red granite and bears the inscrip- tion, "Bivouac of Our Army and Navy Dead."

The vessel is aground at Weav- | er's point opposite Treasure island. Capt. Hinckley will leave Oswego with the steamers Hinckley and M. G. Phelps, a crew of wreckers and equipment, and operations will be started to release the vessel. The steamer Pentland went on the rocks late in November of last year.
