True, the male population visits Holland's pond at intervals and swims in its birthday suits; and at intervals more rare the girls don bathing suits and splash about in the shallows of the creek east of town: but a healihy respect for the caustic properties of spinster tongues has thus far kept the sexes apart.

Joun R. IRWIN INSTRUCTOR U.S ..AIR SERVICE AUDIO AND RADIO FREQUENCY. A newcomer into radio experi- mting ranks is often perplexed two terms called audio quency and radio frequency. necessity of making a dis- on in the frequencies in ra- ) is very important. It is gen- pally known that vibrations of 20,000 per second are inau- } to the human ear. The transmitters, depending por their design, emit vibrations | Rys -running into tens, or | hundreds of thousands, and known as radio frequencies. ln the reception of these waves it is necessary to reduce them to the ra of audibility of ears, erefore, an arbi- r division has been made by engineers and designers to mtiate between the two quencies. All frequencies aboy 10,000 are alluded to as frequencies and all below ! as audio frequencies. { must also be remembered whenever the question of fre- quency is met with in the study of radio that radio frequency is that used in transmission, and that it must ultimately, by vari- ous methods, be reduced to audio frequency in order that the tele- phone receivers commonly used for the reception of signals may function. This is analogous to the transmission of power over great distances by 'wire. It is generally carried at a high volt- age over the greater distance, and, by means of step down transformers, converted to a volt- age of 110 volts, ordinarily used in our household scheme. By means of detectors, either crystal or tube, which are really rectifiers, we convert radio fre- quencies tu audio frequencies. These detectors lop off, as it were, one-half of the cycle, permitting only a flow in one direetion, the other alternation being, almost eliminated, ' ARATUS "DEVICES PH BROWN, RADIO ENGINEER PROTECTIVE DEVICES. < entered so many National Board | rh Rave viry ma. | i their regulations. | 'Interested 1a these mall? ¢ regarding protective devices against fire by lightning or other electrical risks.
