LABOR DAY STUNTS Fans to Have Variety, Rang- ing From Political Speeches to Horse Racing. Everything from political campaign apeeches to horse racing is on tap to- day for radio fans who plan to spend Labor day romping around the dials of receiving sets. A more diversified holiday program has never before been scheduled by the broadcasting stations of the country. Two presidential candidates—John W. Davis and Senator Robert M. La Follette—wlill hold the center of the radio stage this afternoon. But thelr speeches. however, are not expected to detract materfally from the inter- est in the long-awalted international horse race between Epinard, the fa- mous French 4-year-old, and the stars of the American turf, which will be broadcast direct from the Bel- mont track in New York by WJZ and WGY.

Seventeen countries were repre- sented and a dozen speakers, in- cluding several Americans, dwelt on the similitude in the idea of the service as voiced in charity to the helpless orphans in the Near East and the efforts of the League of Na- tions to contribute to world happi- ness.

NEW YORK, September 1.—Two persons were present at Gen. Grant's tomb yesterday when the 39th memorial service in memory of President Grant was to have been held by the American Jewish Seventy Elders. These two were Rabbi E. M. Browne, the ‘only surviving pall- bearer at the funeral of President Grant, and & newspaper reporter.

In spite of the advent of the new dry cell tubes, the storage battery used for lighting the fllaments of the tubes still continues to be very popular. The reason for this is very easy to see when it is remembered that the storage battery tubes give better results than the dry cell tubes. Then, again, the cost of operating a re- celver using a'storage battery is com- paratively small when some type of charging device is used to rechar It as soon as it becomes discharged. There are various types of charg- ing instruments available on the mar- ket, each type having its own peculiar advantages and disadvantages. ‘The type of charger you will need will depend on the kind of current which is supplied to you by your electrical service company. If you have direct current, you will need a direct current charger, which in its essentials simply consists of some form of resistance connected into the charging circuit to cut down the volt- of the supply to one low enough or charging the battery. Since a great deal of current is wasted in this manner, this type of charging arrangement s not efficient when the voltage of the current supply is of the 110-volt direct current type. The most common current source |is 110-volt alternating current. Types of Chargers. There are several types of chargers designed for use with this type of current source. One of these works on what instruments, which is known as the “electrolytic principle” and is known as an electrolytic rectifier type of charger, is shown below. In this type of charger two elec- trodes of the proper materials are immersed in a cell containing a liquid compound such that when an alter- nating current source is connected with its input terminals, current is allowed to flow in one direction but prévented from flowing in the oppo- site direction. The effect is a rectify- Ing action, which results in changing the alternating current into direct current. A transformer connected in the circult steps down the voltage of the current source of the proper value before it is rectified and delivered to the battery. A charger of this type is listed at $18. It is a very satisfactory type, requiring very little attention. All that is necessary is to make sure that the fuse connected Into the cir- cuit to prevent any damage from ex- cessive current surges is in good con- dition and to see that water is added occasionally, as {t evaporates when the charger is in operation. Noiseless Charger. This type of charger has the great advantage of being noiseless in operation, so that it can be used at any time of the day or night without creating any irritating disturbance. Its disadvantage lles in the fact that its charging rate is rather low, being in the neighborhood of 2 to 3 amperes, 80 that it Is neces- sary to keep the battery on charge for a longer time than is necessary when a charger which charges the battery at 5 amperes or more is used. ~ If the battery Is charged often, however, this is not a disad- vantage. The charger has no moving parts to get out of order and with the ex- ception of minor replacements of the water in the solution and the fuse there is nothing that will require re- placement during the useful life of the charger. Since it does not require current from the storage battery to start it, it can be used to charge a storage CREW OF DIRIGIBLE TO LIVE ON SAUSAGE Compressed Form Will Be Main Ration on Long Journey Over Atlantic. By the Ansociated Press. FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany, Sep- tember 1.—Sausage meat, more tightly compressed into the casings than ever before attempted, will form the main ration of the German crew which takes the American Navy dirigible ZR-3 across the Atlantic to Lakehurst, N. J. Speclally prepared concentrated foods will muke up the remainder of the menu. For the Americans on board the aircraft there will be some canned meats, but they will have at least one sausage ration daily. Coffee will be served in the mornings only, provided the weather is fair. Hans Von Schiller, who is in charge of the commissary of the airship, is planning to serve cocoa chiefly as a drink, because of its nourishing qual- itles. There will be in the larder of the dirigible hard tack, concentrated meat cubes and canned vegetables. Fruit will be served sparingly. Schiller will provide plenty of drinking water, but individuals may take aboard some “bottled goods" if they 8o desire. There is to be no smoking tobacco allowed. All the food carried by the ZR-3 will be of German manufacture, no Ameri- can firm having made an offer to supply concentrated goods. The task of altering the motors of the ZR-3 continued yesterday. The next trial flight of the dirigible will take place next Thursday or Friday. On next Armistice day a bronze statue of an American doughboy is to be unveiled in Centralia, Wash., in memory of the four members of the American Legion who were shot down by the I. W.

The men were attached to the auxiliary corps and were charged with having tried to briag about a mutiny in the garrison. — = A physician-dentist of Paris, Tex., called it a day's work when a woman with 12 children called and had the tonsils of all of them removed, and all of her own teeth extracted. e R T2 TWO KILLED IN FIGHT. Buffalo Police Believe Shooting Afe fray Involved Klansmen. BUFFALO, September 1.—In a pistol fight between four men here late last night, which the police belleve to be a Ku Klux Klan internal quarrel, two men were killed and one injured. The dead men are Edward C. Ober- tean and Thomas H. Austin. George C. Bryan is in a hospital, wounded in the abdomen, and may die. The fourth man disappeared.
