ORD, Conn., April 26.—Be- ving that the radio problems af- the transmission and recep- 1 of signals are a long way from being solved to the entire satisfaction of the radio public, the technical de- partment of the American Radio Re- lay Leagup is giving an increasing amount of thought to the develop- ment of its experimental section. The most bothersome questions have been classified and distributed for detailed investigation. Skilled Radio Men. The fact that the experimental sec- tion of the A. R. R.

The fan who uses a radio set with storage battery uses it continually, or at least he should, to test the strength of the electrolyte in his bat- tery. The other type of fan uses it to test the alcoholic content of his homemade or bootleg liquor. Re- gardless of the difference in uses, the actual working principle of both in- struments is the same. Both measure in terms of water as a standard, the relative weight of a liquld as compared with an equal vol- ume of water. We are indebted to Archimedes for the principle under- lying the action of the hydrometer and other methods used to determine the specific gravity of various liquids and_solids. The story is told that Archimedes was asked to find some Wway of determining the purity of crowns and other such ornaments fashioned from or supposed to be fashioned from pure gold. In those days there were goldsmiths who were inclined to be rather sharp in their practices and who, in the common parlance of today, were “gold brick artists.” These goldsmiths mixed a certain proportion of base metal with the gold. The presence of this base metal was very hard to detect. Archimedes got around this diffi- culty when he found that various types of metals and substances had a different weight for a given volume. He knew, for Instance, that a cube of pure gold of certaln dimensions Weighed more than a cube of the same dimensions of gold with which base metals had been mixed. Of course it was a simple weight, but it Was @ difficult matter to find the Wweight per unit of volume of an in- (ricately worked gold ornament. By careful thought and experiment, how- ever, he found that when a body is Suspended to a measuring scale and allowed to sink in a liquid, the loss in wweight of the body is equal to the weight of the liquid displaced. It was then an casy matter to determine the volume of the ornament or ob- ject by measuring the water or liquid displaced, to calculate —the gpecific weight of both object and liquid displaced to calculate the specific gravity of the object and to compare U With that of pure gold. 1f the two were the same, the object was pure Fold. If the two figures did not agree, e object was not made of pure gold. Incidentally he found that the weight of a floating body is equal to the Eveight of the liquid which it dis- places. the device From Yice w 51‘:".‘.1 The hydrometer proper e Local Radio Entertainment Saturday, April 26, 1924. this beginning, as_ the hydrometer NAA—Naval Radio Station, Radis, Va.

When the bulb or float is Inserted in a liquid which is to serve as the standard, such as water, the device should be so weighted and the stem should be of such a size that the de- vice will sink in- to the water up to a point near the end of the stem, somewhere mnear A, If the device is taken out of the water and in- serted into a lig- uid having _a higher specific gravity, such as water mixed with silt (brine), or water mixed with @ heavy liquid, such as sulphuric acid (the ingre- dients used to make battery electrolyte), the buoyant force of the heavier liquid being greater will force the device to float higher in the liquid, so that a point such as B will be at the lev- el of the liquid. At first this may seem to b to undes However, g er that you find it easier to swim in salt water than in fresh water. Again comsider that a ship or boat does not lie so low, or, in other words, the hull is not submerged as much when it is in salt water as it Is when the ship or boat is in fresh water, all other con- ditions of weight of the ship being the same. The thing that actually does the trick is the stem. When the specific gravity of the liquid is low the de- vice sinks down until the liquid d placed by the volume of the float plus the volume of the submerged portion of the stem i3 equal to the weight of the device. In liquids of a low spe- cific gravity a greater volume must be displaced to equal that given weight, so that the device sinks deep- er into the liquid, a greater amount of the stem is submerged, thereby dis- placing the greater amount of the liquid. On the other hand, in heavy liquids the liquid exerts a great buoyant force—that is, it is only necessary to displace a smaller amount of the liguid.” In that case only the volume of the bulb, plus a_small portion of the stem, is necessarw to displace the required’ amount of the liquid and the device floats with the greater part of its stem above the lavel. When the specific gravity of the liquid is low, then the float is sus- pended in the liquid with the stem submerged to a greater extent than when the specific gravity of the liquid is high. That is why you will find that the lower number graduations are at the top and the higher number gradua- tions are at the bottom of the stem. The syringe and glass container have nothing to do with the principle of action of the device. All they are for is to provide a simple means of obtaining the liquid in a conveaient manner for test purposes.

Sunday School Lesso BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. AMOS' AND HOSEA PLEADING FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS. (Temperance lesson.) The Books of Amos and Hosea, (Verses printed Amos, 6.1-6 Hoeea, 6.1-6. Golden Text— Hate the evil and love the good.—Amos, 5.15. Last week we were unable to give the desired consideration to the work ot Ellsha because of the Easter les- son. This week we are called upon to consider the work of two prophets, whose ministry and messages deserve more than a passing notice. Al- though they commenced their proph- etic work during the reign of Jero- boam 1I, the greatest and most suc- cessful of all the rulers of Israel, the messages that they “radio-cast’ 800 years before Christ appeal to us as we listen to them today, because of their apparent application to mod- ern conditions in our country. Amos and Hosea were summoned to prophesy at an hour when Israel's prestige, possessions and power made her not only the dominant force in the Palestinian world, but also jus- tified her aspiring to become the mis- tréss of the world. Success had at- tended the armed forces of the na- tion, so that its territory reached in extent the ancient empire of the Hebrews, under David. During the reign of Jeroboam the marvelous natural resources of Israel had been developed for the first time. Com- mercial enterprise had added to the | nation’s wealth as it had in the days of Solomon. Their political and eco- nomic prosperity produced a spirit of overconfidence. Along with their ap- parent supremacy a sad religious and moral corruption prevailed which contained the germs of national de- cay and destruction. Wealth that had been accumulated by the nation was concentrated in the hands of a few. The middle class had disappeared, leaving the poor de- pendent upon the Tich nobility, whose desire for pleasure, show and ' luxury accentuated the differences between the classes. The accumulation of great and enormous landed estates was against the whole spirit of the Israelite commonwealth. Bribery was practiced in the seats of judgment and the poor suffered injustice and wrongs. Intemperance and immoral- ity were prevalent, due to the in- fluence of Baalism. Women walked the streets, revealing by their leer- ing eyes, mincing walk and excessive ornaments and dress that they were lewd and immoral. Amos directed his attacks upon the social questions, while Hosca, who was able to go to the roots of the nation's life, was seeking to correct the nation's mor- als and religious life. Both recog- nized the dangers Israel faced and fearlessly exposed the national peril. Amos saw lsrael from the stand- point of a Judean. He was not a mere nationalist. The flock master of Tekoa was a man of the people. It is a mistake to think that he was ignorant and unintelligent. He may have been a poor herdsman, who sup- plemented his {ncome from looking a_peculiar breed of desert recp” by pinching the fruit of the sycamores so as “to turn thess buds into something like & poor fig,” since the country about Tekoa offéred no chance to accumulate wealth. No doubt he had learned much from nature and from men and from the pirit of God, even If he were not a student of literature. He found les- sons in the everyday life that he ex- pressed in a terse and graphic man- ner, combining both force and finish. Probably it was as a seller of his wool, when he visited the markets of Isracl, that the prophet was im- pressed by their false security. He was the first to grasp the conception that the whole course of human his- tory is controlled by Jehovah, and that it advances IHis purpose. Under the impelling force of the Spirit of God, Amos appeared in Israel as a prophet of judgment. It required moral courage, born of a deep conviction and confidence that he was called of God, for Amos to prophesy the coming destruction of Israel and other nations. He rebuked in his indictment the national leaders for their corruption of manners, and warned the nation against the false security which they thought their strategie position, power and prestige gave to them, by pointing out the sources of the nation's danger by his charges of corruption in the courts, injustice to the poor, the folly of idleness and mere physical pleasures, and his condemnation of the indiffer- ence and intemperance of the national leaders. Amos saw God's hand in the history of men and nations, and evidently was_well versed in political history of other powers. In warning the na- tion against its false security, he pointed to the history of the over- throw of three important cities, Calneh, founded by Nimrod, one of the five great Babylonian cities, was considered to be almost impregnable. and yet that famous stronghold had been overthrown by the forces of As- syria. Israel had recently shared with Assyria in the subjugation of Hamath, the mighty fortress upon the Orontes. Uzziak, King of Judah, had demolished the iwalls of Gath, which had been considered to be one of the five strongly fortified cities of the Philistines. Their prosperity and power did not keep them from falling. Israel was destined to suffer s similar fate if she did not repent of her vice and quit trusting in her power and pros- perity. Amos fearlessly pointed out the de- generacy of the people. Boore has pointed out how Amos enumerated ten of Israel's vices. “He charges them with incredulity, for they cynic- ally put far away the evil day: with injustice, for with violence they en- forced their fraud; with indolence, for they lolled effeminately upon their beds inlaid with ivory; with immor- ality, for they were infected with wantonness; with insatiableness, for they lived continually on the fat of flock and stall; with indecency, for they sang and played their voluptuous songs; with irreverence, for they mimicked the Davidic instruments Tor revelers; with intemperance, for they gulped their wine out of the sacri@cial bowls; with implety, for they anointed themselves with oint- ments used only for holy purposes and with indifference. for they were unmoved by the affiictions of the people.” Fearing a revolution under his leadership, the brave prophet was banished at the request of Amaziah, who protested against_the prophet’s plain = unveiling of Israel's social evils. While they silenced Amo: Y excluding him, he commenced, a .lit- erary barrage by writing down his prophetic words, which were scat- tered among the people. Amos was the first one of the prophets to record his messages, which have come to us in a manner that requires little, if any, work of the commentator to understand his burning words pre- dicting _judgment, not only u Israel, but every other land that trusts in the power of money rather than In its loyalty to and love of God. The Path of Deliverance. While Amos was pouring out his message concerning the coming judg- ment, Hosea was beginning to feel the call of God moving in his heart through the misfortunes of his love and sorrow of his home, summoning Hosea to prophecy. His life, which covered nearly the whole of the last century of Israel's history, stands out amidst_the nation's darkness by his effort fo persuade his countrymen to repent and do God's will, so as to avert the threatened judgment. In his own grief over the waywardness of his wife, whom he loved oven after she had fallen into the vices which surrounded her, so that she deserted thd prophet and his two children for a life of licentiousness, Hosea proved his love for his wife by purchasing her, when she was offered as a slave at & public auction, brought her back to the old home and gave her a new chance. In his own love and efforts to save his wife Hosea secured a vision of God's love for Israel and His longm to save the nation from disaster In his own trials Hosea had learned the supreme truth of religion, which h‘- claimed, that God is love. His messages point out in sad but vivid words the degeneracy of Israel. Angus has summed up his prophecy: “The kings and the princes were mur- derers and profligates; the priests had spread their shameful fes- tivals and their deceitful oracles all over the land: the great parties for help sometimes to Assyria, at other times to Egypt, while the whole nation entirely relied on human help; worldly and sinful objects were pursued with the same cagerness by Ephraim as by Canaan; a listless security blinded all minds, giving place in the moment of danger to a repentance merely of the lips, and, what was the root of ail other evils, God and His word were for- gotten.” Hosea eaw that the real trouble was the absence of right relations with God and men. He tried to estab'ish right righteousness and relations by pointing out the claims of Gods love by urging that they recognize His long- ing to bless them and by calling upon them to put themselves into the position whero He could avert the coming judg- ment. Hosea suggested that their suf- ferings wero due to Jehovah's helpful pro- surgery in an effort to cure them “of their sin. He called upon them to re- pent and return heartbroken unto God, He would_ live loving obedienco their peeking His mercy and forgiveness. assurrd them that if ‘they a life of restoration was certain. The very truthe for which we read Hosea today made his first hearers to revile him and turn unheedingly away. Possibly, as Batten suggests, Hosea may have been enrolled among the martyrs because Pekah, who succeeded Jeroboam, could not silence him by mere threats. Hosea pointed out that sin was the source of sorrow for a nation as well | gt as for an individual. perity and destroys emasculates society ernment. that is always true, exalteth 2’ nation, but to any people.” Shall not we in pros- It perverts pro religion “Righteousn perous America learn the danger of our wealth and heed the call of our I'resi- dent in his address to the Asu#ociated Press by making our possessions Lo be “we hate evil and love the good” we will prove it by putting out our efforts and money toward helping a distracted world bWk practicing the principles of life of loving If we fail, then we, too, shall be doomed to perish because of our of service to humanity.
