Mansfield, Secy., Federated Sportsmen of Illinois Illinois for the second time ranks first among all the states in the number of Bob White quail imported for distribution according to William J. Stratton, Director of Conservation. Ten thousand Bob White quail, the same number that was imported last year, have been purchased from "Snake" King of Brownsville Texas for delivery within the next thirty days. These are all strong adult birds trapped in the wild highlands of northern Mexico where \hey are subjected to a climate more nearly approaching Illinois weather conditions than in any other section of this continent where quail in such large quantities are obtainable. Mr. Stratton, who has had charge of the old Division of Game and Fish and the new Department of Conservation for the past five years, in discussing this second importation of quail explained that great care will be used to have the birds released where cover and feed will be available and where these imported birds will have an {opportunity to mate with our native quail. This mating and mixing of the^ new strains with the badly inbred birds found in many localities especially in carefully protected areas produces stronger, healthier and more prolific birds. This according to Mr. Stratton is one of the most important reasons for the importation of these Mexican Bob Whites. Reports from sportsmen from many sections of the state and my own observations showed that where the Mexican quail were liberated last spring, not only were the individual birds larger and more vigorous, but the size of the covies was almost twice that of native quail that had not been hunted or disturbed the preceding winter. Aside from this great improvement there was no appreciable difference in the actions of the imported or native birds either in lying for the dogs or in the length of flfght when flushed. A few more years of this kind of constructive conservation so ably carried out by Mr. Stratton combined with the purchase and operation of game preserves and public shooting grounds should put Illinois first in both the supply of game and in providing sport for the ordinary everyday man as well as the millionaire-- and all of the bills paid not by gertera) 'taxes, but through license fees by those who benefit the most-- the hunter and fisherman. device That Gets ' Stronger Signals Important Improvement ia Tuned Radio Frequency Circuit#. When all ef the better grade model* of receiving sets are brought out thla fall by the leading manufacturers It will be found that one of the principal Improvements In the tuned radio frequency circuits will be the Introduction of a 200,000-ohm variable resistance such as the centralab radiohm. Orders for more than a million of these radlohms from set manufacturer* Indicates the extent to which this method of controlling oscillation In radio frequency sets will be used. With this Improvement being made in the manufactured sets, there is no reason why the home set builder shouldn't take the same advantage. The accompanying diagram shows how the radiohm can be connected in series with the "B" battery lead to the plates of the radio frequency tubes. A bypass condenser of from one-half to one mfd.. Indicated by "C," is necessary between the negative filament lead and the primary of the radio frequency transformer. Perfect Control of Tubes. The pnrpose of making this change Is to give perfect control of the tubes on all wave lengths. This tube con- Fifty thousand pheasant eggs will be distributed to farmers and hunters throughout Illinois during the next three months by the Department of Conservation. This will bring the total number distributed during the last three years close to one hundred and fifty thousand. William J. Stratton, Director of Conservation, in an interview here today explained the plan which he has used successfully before and which will be followed in this year's distribution. The eggs will be shipped prepaid direct from the game farm to hunters and farmers who write to the Department for one or more settings. All that is required to obtain these eggs is a letter addressed to William J. Stratton, Director of Conservation, State House, Springfield, Illinois, stating the number desired. These requests will be filed and shipments made as long as the supply lasts. Very accurate records have been kept of results obtained from all shipments the past two years. These records show that the earlier the pheasants are hatched the larger the percentage that reach maturity. On this account and because the supply will probably not equal the demdnd Mr. Stratton urged all who want to assist in his work of propagating game birds to write to him at once. The distribution of fifty thousand pheasant eggs while seemingly a tremendous step towards increasing the supply of game birds is but a part of the program of constructive conservation which was started in 1923. This plan was worked out by the General Assembly assisted by Mr. Stratton, then Chief Game Warden, now Director of Conservation and leading organizations of sportsmen. It included not only restrictive laws limiting open seasons and bag limits and protecting rights of property distribution of game birds and fish. One of the most important features of this program in the purchase of game farms, fish hatcheries and public shooting and fishing grounds,! all paid for by the hunters and fishermen through hunting and fishing licenses without one cent of money from general taxes. Railway Gauge Varies The standard gauge of railways ft 4 feet 8% inches in the United States, Canada. Great Britain, a number of countries on the continent of Europe, etc., it being the gauge which prevails on probably three-fourths of the railways of the globe. There have been various different gauges, and In fact a number thereof are In use at the present day. The old broad gauge was 7 feet. There are narrow- gauge lines of 3 feet In Ireland the usual giuge Is 5 feet 8 Inches; In Prance there ave lines of 4 feet 9 Inches; In Spain and Portugal the normal gauge Is 5 feet 5% Inches; In Russia, 5 feet; in India, the prevailing gauge Is 5 feet 0 Inches; in the British colonies, 3 feet 6 inches; in South America, 5 feet 6 Inches, with various others.

It has long been known that a set which will not whistle or squeal under certain conditions will not produce volume or distance. This whistle Is actually caused by the carrier wave of an Incoming signal combining with the high frequency wave generated In the set when the tubes are operated In a state of oscillation. For clear reception the tubes should be just below this point. In addition to causing whistles and squeals, the music or speech received will be mushy and distorted when the tubes are oscillating. Control of Receiver. Many types of receivers, of which the neutrodyne and tuned radio frequency types predominate, oscillate readily and require some means of contreL Attempts to make receivers nonoscUlatlng by means of small fixed condensers or by reducing the number of turns In the transformer primaries, are successful only at a sacrifice ef volume and range. Over certain portions of the dial the set may operate satisfactorily, but over the whole range additional control of the tubes Is necessary. The majority of receiving sets are Improperly neutralized or balanced. Paint signals can be brought la by turning up the rheostats, a poor and critical method of control, at best. By the use of a radiohm the receiver can be controled en all wave lengths with the noiseless variable resistance. ^Compiled by Glenn D. Adams The Y. M. C. A. of Chicago Biography This is a good game to break the ice at a party. Give each one some cards or a small tablet. Within a given time--say ten minutes--depending on the number present--ask each guests to shake hands with as many others as possible and get each one's autograph and address. Also get the color of their eyes, birthday (not the year--but just the month and day) and birthplace, also favorite occupation and pet peeve. See who can get the most biographies within a given time. Do not give quite time enough to satisfy however--so they will have to hurry and then not quite get done. The prize may be given for the largest list. This also is good material by which to help you make and remember new friends. Bill Board Advertising ^ This is always an interesting game. The illustrations or pictures of familiar advertisements are" cut out of magazines and newspapers but all of the identifying names are cut away. These ads are all numbered^ and hung around the wall. People with paper and pencil write down the number and name of that ad on their cards. The goal Of course is to see which can remember or guess the most of these ads. It is even more interesting to pin these pictures of ads on the front of each person. The guesser will write down then the names of the ad ind the person wearing it. One other ariation is to pin simply the trade names or slogan on each person such "Eventually, why not now?" Hasn't scratched yet." Lucky curve," and so on--and let these present guess the advertisements. Am I Napoleon Another guessing game which is a trood mixer and good fun as well is to pin the name of some prominent person on the back of each one present. This might be called, "Am I Napoleon?" Each person can ask any questions he or she(likes of any one else about what name is pinned on his back but the only answers which may be givon are "Yes," "No," or "I don't know." You can have fun with a great variety of names--all the way from Adam to Julius Caesar or Napoleon to President Coolidge, Luther Burbank Jane Adams or "Billy" Sunday. A soon as a person guesses the name on his back, the name should be taken off his back and pinned on his front. This game can be varied by using instead of the names of prominent people of the past' or present, the names of other persons at the party or in the town or the names of colleges, the names of birds or animates. Thus a man could be labelled a pig, an elephant, a monkey, or a donkey and a girl could be labelled a deer, a bird of paradise, or a gazelle. Still another method would be to label every boy and girl by twin lovers of history such as Anthony and Cleopatra, Adam and Eve, Harold Teen and Lillums, etc. English Criminal Custom Hue and f ry is thf old English common law process of pursuing "with horn and with voice" from township to township, and county to county all robbers and felons.

Celtic History Celtic-speaking p- !•*>•« occupied a very wide territory of old, spreading from central Europe, where the first records of them exist, far to the west, southwest and even southeast. They settled in Gaul perhaps about 1000 B. C., and were probably at the height of their power about 400 B. C. Later they were under constant pressure from the Germanic tribes to the north, and saw most of their territories conquered by the Romans, from the south. They maintained their independence in the British Isles, though, for centuries.
