NEW YORK, August §.—The cam- paign conducted by the radio section of the Associated Manufacturers of Electrical Supplies to make the Sum- mer of 1924 a radio Summer by the improvement of equipment, service and programs has brought a flood of letters _to broadcasting stations throughout the country reflecting the increased hold which radio has taken upon the public and the better qual- ity of reception this season as com- pared with the warm months of 1923. One of the interesting develop- ments disclosed in these communic tions is the vogue of “radio parties In thousands of the smaller commu- nities the announcement of an ex- ceptional broadcasting program is seized upon ax the occasion for a gathering of neighbors and friends for an evening of music or for an informal dance. Due to the rnotable improvements in receiving apparatus, as well as the greater power and range of many broadcasting stations in the United States, the usual Summertime atmos- pheric disturbances have interfered but little with the enjoyment of ra- dio reception. Leétters from public officials, educators and clergymen em- phasize the fact that, in addition to these entertainment features, radio has become an indispensable public service. ‘The broadcasting of the Democratic and Republican national conventions came in many quarters as a revelation of the power and des- tiny of radio in the home. FASHION REPORT AMONG WRC FEATURES TODAY A fashion report edited by Women's Wear will be presented by Eleanor Gunn as the opening event of WRC this afternoon.

At 3:40 the report of the Magazine of Wall street will be announced, to be followed by the piano recital of Ethel Grant. At 4 o'clock Edna M. Colman, na- tional president of the League of American Pen Women, will be heard in a talk entitled “The Legend of the Sardonyx,” one of a series of talks on birthstones. The daily instruction in interna- tional code will take place at 5:15, to continue until the children's period, at 6 p.m. Base ball scores at 6:20 con- clude the afternoon.

The Bureau of Standards is trans- mitting special signals of standard frequency on announced dates. The last previously announced schedule was published in the May, 1924, 1ssue of the. radio service bulletin. The next schedule is announced below. The signals can be heard and utilized in general east of the Mississippt River. % These special signals of standard frequency are of use to testing laboratories, transmitting station op- erators and others in standardizing wave meters and adjusting transmit- ting and recelving apparatus. ‘Ihe transmissions on July 7 include the frequencies used by amateurs, those on August 6 ship and point-to-point, communication, those on September 5 ship communication and those on September 22 broadcasting. The ac- curacy of these signals is better than three-tenths of 1 per cent. Informa- tion on how to use them is given in Bureau of Standards letter circular No. 92, which may -be obtained on application from the HBureau of Standards. ‘Al transmissions are by unmodu- lated continuous-wave telegraphy. A complete frequency transmission includes a “general call,” a “standard frequency signal”’ and “announte- ments” The “general call” is given at the beginning of the ¥-minute period and continues for about 2 minutes. This includes a statement of the frequency. The “standard frequency signal” is a series of very long dashes with the call letters WWYV intervening. This signal con- tinues for about 4 minutes. ‘The “announcements’ are on the same frequency as the “standard fre- quency signal” just transmitted and contain a statement of the measured frequency. An announcement of the next frequency to be trasmitted is then given. There is then a 4- minute interval while the transmit- ting set is adjusted for the next frequency. The schedule of standard frequency signals from the Bureau of Stand- ards is as follows: SCHEDULE OF FREQUENCIES IN KILOCYCLES. (Approximate wave lengths in meters in parentheses.)

Reproduction Prohibited. Looking Backward (With Apologies 1o Bellamy), Looking backward and noticing what the prophets of old have prophe sied and how much of what they Vv ioned has come true or noting how much of the things they said could not be done have been done has al- ways been a popular sport of those living in the days that are here and referred to by the ancients as the “days that are to come.” Those of my friends who have not read Bellamy's “Looking Backward, 2000-1887." should get a copy of the book and read especially the 1lth chapter, which describes how good music and entertainment will be fur- nished to the people in the year 2000 A.D. The fact that the book was written in 1887, when nonc of the present wonders of radio were known, makes the reading all the more inter- esting and makes one marvel at the inspiration which prompted his vision. This book is but one of those which foresaw and portrayed vividly the de- velopments which were to be brought about in the years in which we are now living. Verne's “Twenty Leagues Under the Sea” developed its greatest interest during the days of submarine war- fare in the late war. His story “Around the World in Eighty Da) is of particular interest at this time, when the United States airmen are fiying around the world by airplane and when a world's record for a transcontinental trip in one day was recently established by Lieut. Maughn. In these days when reports of broadcast reception over distances of over 5,000 miles are common the fol- lowing paragraphs from the May. 1910, issue of Modern Electric Maga- zine will be of interest, inasmuch as it is probably the record of the first successful effort at broadcasting mu- sic. “A very interesting experiment crystal on the market to- .

Ave. House of higher standards and lower prices 000000000 AL A was held on the afternoon of Febru- ary 24 by Dr. Lee De Forest in the transmission of music and operatic selecticns by wireless. The operatic selections were sung by Mme. Mari- ette Mazarin, the new star of the Manhattan Opera Company, whose first American interpretation of ‘Elektra’ occasioned much comment by the music-loving world. “This demonstration holds particu lar interest, as it is the first succes: ful one of its kind ever held, and is one more step forward to prove that in the near future we will have ‘wireless music.’ “The transmitting station was lo- cated at the De Forest laborator: Grand Central station, New The operatic selections were clearly heard at the Metropoli- tan Life Building, over a mile away, and at the inventor's Newark, N. J.. station, as well as by some hundred or more amateurs within a 20-mile range. “After the exhibition Mme. Mazarin and the audience became the guests of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and were shown the won- ders of the building and allowed to view Manhattan from the tower, some 600 feet above Madison Square. Through the fog and distance could be seen the tower of the station from which the music had been transmitted.” Such were the conditions under which the present idea of broadcast- ing found its inception. From the distance of 20 miles the range of broadcasting stations has increased to thousands of miles. From an audi- ence composed of “some hundred or more amateurs” the invisible audience which listens nightly to the strains of broadcast music has increased to more than 3,000,000. What is in store for us 100 or even 50 years from now would require the vivid imagination of a Bellamy or a Verne.

Wilbur, dean of the Columblan College, George Washing- ton University, vesterday cited to the students of George Washington Uni- versity Summer School the closé rela- tionship developed between the United States and England by the common bond of Shakespeare. He outlined the works of Shake- speare in three groups, history, com- ¢dy and philosophy, describing the historical group of works as an inter- pretation of English history, the ccm- edy group as being based on fellow- ship, and the philosophical group as portraying the knowledge of §ood and evil. ASKS $25,000 FOR LIBEL. First Wife Sues Second Wife J B. H. Young. Lizzie E. Young, first wife of Ben- jamin H. Young, an employe of the Veterans' Bureau, today filed suit in the District Supreme Court to recover $25,000 damages for alleged libel from Ruby H. Young, the present wife of Young. The former Mrs, Young declares that in a petition.for maintenance filed by the present wife against Young last April, the present Mrs. Young made scandalous state- ments reflecting on the plaintiff. At- torneys George F. Curtis and R. M. Hudson appear for the former wife. You ought to know that vinegar is not just a sour taste. Real vinegar has quality, fla- vor, aroma and delicacy, secured by the careful sclection of the materials that go into it and by slow aging and mellowing. Heinz Vinegars are real vine- gars. Once you taste their flavor- compelling qualities you will never be content with the ordi- nary, crude, sour concoctions that have no name and no flavor. It surely is not an extrava- gance to pay a fraction of a cent more to make a salad really delicious. - Masxfactored ane geerastoed by NATIONAL CARBON COMPANY, INC, New York—San Francisco Hosdguertors for Redio Bettory Informetion Batteries ~they last longer.
