The Depart- ment of Commerce has issued a trans- mitting license to Woodward & Loth- rop, and the radio department of that store 18 now completing arrange- ments to entertain the wireless “fane” with special dally programs, supple- mented by a feature concert every Saturday evening. The call assigned to_the new station is “WIAY.” Installation of the apparatus for the “WIAY” has been under way for several weeks, and plans are being made to broadcast the initial program beginning this coming Saturday or the following Saturday. The radio department is on the 4th floor of the store and arrange- ments are being made to turn the entire phonograph department on that floor into a radio department, to include a separate room for the operator, performers and listeners- in. The transmitting set is of 200- watt power and capable of two amperes current radiation from z four-wire aerial, 120 feet long. erected on the roof. The motor gen- erator set, which is of 1,000 volt outy put, will be inclosed behind a tion in such a manner as to wn 3)9 noises while the set is in opera- on. “On our roofs b4 v gy are so far from the city, the wild quail come here in the winter time when the snow hides their food. Here every- thing is so quiet. It is like a big natural garden; so that these, the timidest of wild birds, come and let me feed them. *Because we are so far from the city, we can make better ginger ale and other beverages. . Under the ground are unfailing springs of cold, pure water. “Every drop of water used in making Clicquot beveragescomesfromthese springs. There is not the slightest chance for con- tamination anywhere. As a matter of fact, if we bottled this spring water exactly as it is drawn from the ground, we would un- doubtedly have a big de- mand for it as a table water. “But the purity of the THE CLICQUOT CLUB COMPANY, Milis, Mass, U.

So we have other Clicquot Club flavors —Sarsaparilla, Birch Beer and Root Beer. All are equally pure and good. *“l wish you would ask your to send you a case of Clicquot Club Gin- ger Ale for the home. Or, _ if you prefer it, let him send a mixed case.
