COCKADAY. The illustration glven herein shaw: s how radio waves are sent out. The antenna is shown. for simplicity, as a single wire, vertical antenna with @ spark gap as a generator of oscll- lations in series with the ground. For every given frequency of cur- rent jumping the gap, a wave of a certain definite length is radiated from the antenna. The length of the wave is the distance between the art and finish of one complete wave, mcasured along Jhe ground. All radio waves travel with the terrific specd of light.” When we know this, the wave length of a wave radiated from an antenna can easily be cal- culated if we also know the fre- quency of the oscillations in the antenna circuit. Now, let us consider how radio aves are received. We know that as the frequency of the current in the antenna decreases the length of the remitted wave increases. We receive a radio wave when we an antenna with its insulated RADIOMAY BE USED | T0 REPLACE CABLE Seizure of fransatlanticl Lines Gives Chance for | Air Service. — | P Rush of Wireless Business Is Wel- | comed as Test of Fa- cilities. “some good.” In fact, it is that the seizure of ten trans- | atlantic cables by the Irish frregulars, | reported by the Associated Press, leav- ing but seven to carry all the old world | news and dispatches, may give radio | to show what it can do, especially in an smerger nd_to date it is reported that the Radio Corporation of America ring all its transatlantic mes- filed between Great Britain and North America without delay.

Of two men—one spends all he makes—the growing savings account—which wires high in the air, and these wires q got in the way of the advancing circular waves. When a series of waves strike the antenna they do not cause it to bob up and down like a cork, but they do produce a tangible result, nevertheless. This result takes the shape of a feeble current induced in the re- ceiving antenna which is an exact replica of the- gurrent in the trans- mitting antenna, but reproduced on a much smaller scale. It has the same frequency and ds like it cvery respect except in strength. Thus we can see that it Is mnot the electrio current itself that travels through the ether, but that the elec- trio current does start a disturb- ance in the other in the form of a Hertzian |wave which travels out- ward in 'all dircctions in circles. And when these waves strike another sntenna which fs tuned to that par- ticular wave length, they wlill in- duce in that antenna a current sim- ilar to the transmitting current, only of decreased inten (Copyrigh fly in ever, that the Carnarvon station will have to handle both Canadian and United States dispatches, although sta- tions on this continent can relay mes- sages between United States and Cana- an points. The radio system is more fiexible than cable communication, they point out, and when one station is loaded part of its work can be trans- ferred to another. High-speed trans- mission will enable the radio stations to carry great numbers of messages in periods free from interference, and prac- tically no delay is anticipated. The only other means of communi- cation between the old and new worlds are the three French cables which land at Brest, and one commercial cable to the Azores and Lisbon, which usually serves the Mediterranean, and some of them are said to be in poor shape. Radio stations in Europe and Eng- land_are used for sending and re- ceiving from specific sections: for ex- ample, the new n at Ongar, Eng- land, serves the céntinent and Europe, while that at Carnarvon, in Wales, operates to (anada and the United States, and the British postal radio circuit, near Oxford, handles Egyptian traffic.

It would seem that the Radio Cor- poration of American can. handle the American end of the transatlantic traffic with little trouble, and the sta- tions at Marion, M Tuckerton and New Brunswic and Port Jefferson, L.

C. of A. sta- tions; it is the first high-powered transmitting station in Belgium, and may prove a valuable adjunct in the present emergency. Radio will re- ceive a severe test under summer handicaps, but is expected to save the situation. DOLLS IMPORT LIQUOR. Japanese Toys, Holding Pint to Quart, Used for Smuggling. SAN FRANCISCO, August 19.—Jap- anese dolls of the most innocent variety are the latest liquor smug- gling devices of travelers from the far east landing In the United States Pacific ports, according to Mrs. A. H. Douglas, wife of Commander Douglas of the U. S. S. Huron, here today from Shanghal. The dolls are said to be dressed in the glowing colors of the orfent and the manufacturers place receptacles in them capable of holding from a pint to a qdart each. In future, customs officlals announce, all dolls will be thoroughly shaken. —_— PLANE AND AUTO CRASH MAY RESULT IN DEATH KANSAS CITY, Kan, August 19.— Will Warner of Junction City was probably fatally injured yesterday when an automobile in which he was riding was hit by a transcontinental plane, en route from Washington to the Pacific coast, as it made a landing on the Fort Riley reservation. The pilot, Lieut. Wilkins, came down in the tall grass and did not see the car. Warner's brother, who was driving the car, was not serfously hurt.

Henry Swallows Old Bait ENRY FORD'’S whole PROOF of a world-wide Jew Conspiracy was founded on a certain Protocols. Did you know these costly documents were: (1) complete forgeries.
