Max Eradfleld’s Versatile LYON PARK. LYON PARK, Va., August 18 (Spe- cial).—A spirited discussion of the report of Arthur Orr on the activi- ties of the Arlington County good roads commission, of which he is chairman, was indulged in at the regular meeting last week of the Lyon Park Civic Assoclation. Mr. Orr outlined steps which had been taken by the commission when adopt- ing the roads already approved. These were Included in the so-called Tal- man plan, which provided for ap- proximately nine miles of main roads, with a few short connecting links to provide for cross-country traffic. This plan includes Washington _avenue from Hatfield through Lyon Park to South Spruce street station, then forks with one branch continuing north on South Spruce street to Wilson boulevard and the other branch turning west along Taylor avenue to Wilson boule- vard at its junction with Marion ave- | nue in Clarendon. The commission, then, it was stated, proceeded to en- large upon the Talman plan, and has adopted for its tentative program a number of roads in the outlying sec- tions of the county, which had pre- viously been included in a plan sub- mitted by Mr. Kay, an engineer in the Bureau of Public Roads, but now known as the Denslow plan.

Some months ago-this crossing was the scene of a collision between an automobile and one of these returning cars which came very near resulting fatally to several oc- cupants of the machine. It is sug- gested that the rallway company either establish an emergency stop or enforce a strict regulation calling for the slowing down at this point of these extra cars. President Moore of the association was instructed to take the matter up with the raillway com- pany officials and report to the next meeting. 2y Felt Fully Qualified. From the Edinburgh Scotsman.

Irving Boernstel: “It isn't just right but 1 guess it will do” has been the cause of more failures, more deaths, more disasters and more hard luck generally than any other saying of human beings all over the world. If Marconi or any other radio in- ventors had said that, we could not have radio as we know it today. If the Wright brothers had been content merely to fly, we would not now have round-the-world fiyers or air mail de- livery; if printers had been satisfled with Gutenberg’s printing methods, we would not now be reading in pa- pers things that occurred only a few hours before they appear in print. If a radio set would rear up on its hind legs and absolutely refuse to work when poor parts are slapped together and wired in any old way and used with poor aerial and ground, there is a possibility that fans would wake up to the fact that to get re- sults things should be done in just the right way. As it is, however, a man can use parts that were never designed for each other; use an aerial and ground that an Australian bushman would be ashamed to admit were products of his handiwork and still get some results, though, of course, the results obtained are not as good as he expects them to be or as good as his friend John Jones gets with his. Then follows a letter to the radio editor or writer, with a diagram of the circuit and the complaint that it will not deliver the goods. Whft can be the matter? 1s the circuit no good or is it possible that he made an error in wiring? But, no. it can't be any- thing the matter with the wiring. Why? Because the set works. It may be of interest to you to know that a set will work under almost any conditions. You can disconnect grid wires, make poor connections to batteries and ground, have a very SHOWS LEE SIGNATURE. Bank Displays Autograph of Gen- eral Made After War. RICHMOND, Va, August 18.—A local bank has a signature of Gen. Robert E. Lee, made on the books of its predecessor in business for identification purposes in 1865, on display. ‘The signature was written during May, about one month after the South’'s famous general had surren- dered at Appomatox. Gen. Lee was one of the first de- positors in the bank, which was or- ganized in 1865, and the signature book now is kept in the vault, with concert tomight as the closing feature of WCAP’s prosram.

You cannot expect to get more out of a set than you put into it and that applies just as strongly to the use of good parts as it does to careful and painstaking work in putting the set together. Another thing to guard against is the tendency to skimp on the smaller items. Some fans will lay out a lot of good money on the big items such as transformers, couplers, condensers ete., and then will try to save a few cents by buying cheap grid condens- ers and leaks; cheap aerial insulators and lightning arresters and such other small item Many of the smallest parts are j as important to the working of the receiver as the larger parts and because two pieces of apparatus look very much alike do not make the mistake of coming to the conclusion that both will work Just as well in your set. A chain is not stronger than its weakest link and a radio set is not better than its poorest part Another important thing to remem- ber is that while the set and aerial may be of the best, good results should not be expected if a poor pair of phones or an ineflicient loud speak- er is used. The phones or loud speak- er are the last and in some ways the most important parts of your set.

Back in the days when Lee en. made the deposit, the banks had no individual card filing system.
