Many European Institutions Now Broadcast Lectures. European scientific and educational | institutions are coming to employ broadcasting as an efficlent means of diffusing knowledge among listeners throughout those countries. One of the first organizations to institute this method was the Hans Bredow School of Popular Education in Hamburg, co- operating with the Nordische Rund- funk Society. Later other schools be- gan broadcasting scientific lectures nd instructive talks in Berlin, Frank- ort-on-Main and Leipzig. Another effort to develop radio as a practical means of communication is being made by the *“Heinrich Hertz Gesellschaft for Radioelectricity” of Germany, which institution has estab- lished a medal to be presented annual- ly for the best scientific treatise on radio electricity and the best amateur work. The latter award is understood to be similar to the American “Hoover Of the 100,000 private houses in Bel- jum destroyed during the World War 5,000 have been rebuilt. More than 1; no\xm““ of roadway have been re- stored. | FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA. All Rights Reserved. Repro. Prohibited. Simplifying the Battery Charging Problem. Hooking up the proper connections for charging a battery by the use of a battery charger 1s a very simple proposition for the average fan, but when friend husband runs down to the office in the morning and suddenly remembers that he forgot to connect the chargge with the battery and cur- rent no amount of explaining over the phone will make the wife understapd what connections should be made to perform the necessary operation. If, as is usually the case, the battery has been run down to any considerable extent radio reception for the evening is “all off.” The idea of placing battery and charger in some. out-of-the-way place, all connected up with a suitable switching system to make it possible to switch the battery from charging to the set, is rapidly gaining favor. If properly connected ‘all that is neces- sary to perform the function of put- ting the battery on charge or switch- ing it to the set is a double-pole, dou- ble-throw switch. m showing how this can be s shown below. To simplify the explanation of the functions of the various connections each terminal has been numbered. Nos. 1 and 2 are the terminals of the plug supplied with the charger. This plug is plugged into the current or house - lighting source when the charger I8 to be used. Terminals 3 and 4 of the charger are the terminals that are connected with the plug, so that they are automatical- connected with the lighting mains when the plug is inserted into a cur rent receptacle. No. 5 of the charger is the terminal which should be con- nected with the negative terminal of the A battery and terminal 6 is the terminal which should be connected with the positive terminal of the A battery when the charger is to be used to charge the battery. These negative and. positive terminal mark- ings are used only In the electrolytic and vacuum tube type of chargers and »n some of the vibrating reed types of chargers. On chargers of the self polarizing type the polarity is taken care of automatically and no atten. tion need be paid to polarities. Battery Terminals Explained. Number 7 is the positive terminal of the A battery and number 8§ is the negative terminal of the battery. Number-9.1s the positive A battery terminal of the set, while number 10 is the negative A battery terminal of the set. Numbers 11 and 12 are one set of contacts of the double-pole, double- throw switch: terminals 13 and 14 are the blade terminals of the switch while termlnals 15 and 16 are theé other set of terminals of the switch. To connect up the system, as shown in the diagram, it is necessary to cut one of the leads (either one) of the current supply cord of the charger. The end which is connected with the plug should be connected with terminal 13 of the switch, while the end of the cut cord, which is con- nebted with the charger, should be connected With terminal 15 of the switch. The negative A batte the set and the negative (in case of self-polarizing chargers, either ter- minal) terminal of the charger should both be connected with the negative terminal of the battery. - The other connections are self-ex- planatory. No connection is made with terminal 11 of the switch. Connecting Charger. When the switch is thrown to the charge position so that a contact is established between terminals 13 and 15 and another contact is established y terminal of between terminals 14 and 16 the cur- | rent is turned on from the lighting mains through the charger (the plug, of course, should be plugged into a lighting receptacle) through the con- tact established between terminals 13 and 15. At the same time closing the contact between terminals 14 and 16 closes the circuit between the charger and the battery. The battery is then on charge. ‘When the switch is thrown in the other direction the lighting circuit and the charging circuit are auto- matically opened, while the connec- tion established between terminals 12 and 14 closes the A battery circuit to the set terminals. A geod porcelain base double-pole, double-throw switch, obtainable at any radie store, can be used. If the switch s marked “Set” at one end and "Charge” at the other end and the plug kept in the receptacle, all that is-necessary to charge the bat- tery or connect it with the set is a simple throw of the switch to one side or the other. HIGH COURT TO GET RADIO MUSIC FIGHT Cincinnati Station Gets Stny.in Injunction Proceedings by - Remick Company. By the Associated Press. CINCINNATI, Ohlo, May 16.—Uporn application of the owner of the Cros- ley Radio Corporation's radiocasting station at Cincinnti, United States Cir- cuit Court of Appeals yesterday grant- ed a stay of its mandate reversing the decree of the lower court d<¢missing|. the bill of Jerome H. Remick & Co., New York. The New York publishers charged violation by the local ‘broad- casting company of 4 copyright cover- ing a musical composition. The stay will remain in force pending applica- tion to the United States Supren;a Court for a writ of certiorari. In a recent opinion appellate court held that unlicensed broadcasting of a copyrighted musical composition is a violation of the copyright act and that the violator is subject to injunc- tion and the payment of damages. “This decision was based upon the holding that the broadcasting of a copyrighted . publication -is & public performance of it within the meaning of the copyright law. The United States District Court had held such a performance not to be a public performance within ¢he mean- ing of the act. e S i Of all men entering a woman’'s life the three that cause her the most trou- ble are: The one she missed, the one she is endeavoring to lose Bnd the one she plans to grab.

MAY 16, 1925. Sunday School Lesso BY REV. HUGH T. STEVENSON. SAUL, BECOMES A CHRIS- TIAN.—Acts, ix.1-19. Golden Text—"If any man is in Christ, he is a new crea- tére.”—II Cor., v.17. Saul's.conversion is recognized as the most momentous event in the h! tory of apostolic Christianity. It s one of the strongest proofs of the power of the Gospel. It is one of the pivotal events in the world’s history. It is a story of one of those profound- ly slgnificant events in the annals of men on which the whole complexion of future thought and the course of future progress turned. No one dreamed of its importance to Chris- tlanity, civilization and the coming centuries., The importance of the conversion of Saul appears in the New Testa- ment, that gives us three different ac counts of this epoch-making event. In addition to the one written by Luke, as a historfan, that forms to- day's lesson, we have two records given us by Paul. One was given in connection With his effort to propitiate a Jewish mob, Who thought him a re. ligious renegade. The other, and third, is found in his address before two educated §ceptics, a Roman ruler and a grandson of Herod the Great. The three accounts differ in some minor details, due to thelr purpose, but these differences are easily har monized. Luke, the careful historfan, would not have left them unexplained had he regarded them as discrep- ancies. Christianity never made a more thorough conquest than the one that turned the pernicious persecutor of the early church into its greatest preacher and interpreter. ‘“Modern life,” siys Robertson, “is chiefly a blend of the Jewish' contribution to religion, the Greek contribution to culture and the Roman contribution to government, and all these were con- tained in Saul of Tarsus, the Roman citizen and brilliant student of Gam- ahil, the eminent rabbi. Head and heart were completely transformed when the leader of the persecution, who was “making havoc” of the new faith, became a disciple of the Lord Jesus. The narrow view of the rigid Pharisee expanded to the world-wide view of the liberal apostle. He saw in his 30ld faith a forerunner and ‘prophecy of Christianity. His views of the teachings of the Christ have become the fundamental statement of all Christian communions and creeds, When he set aside all the ties of his ancient faith to respond to the high calling of God in Christ Jesus he never dreamed that he was to become the master empire bullder of all history. The Persecutor’s Program. Saul considered that he wak doing his duty when he commenced his persecujing work. The earnest, en- thusiastic and educated young rabbi believed that he was doing God’s will when he was seeking to force rever-| ence and agreement, believing that a | bended knee and a broken formula, if only in the sacred name, would be pleasing to Jehovah. He tells us that he was wretched, restless and almost in despair because he did not obtain a spiritual_rest through obedience to the law. It is possible that it was due to his own spiritual unrest that prompted him to engage in his per- secuting_effort so fiercely hoping to obtain peace. of mind. The spiritual unrest started at Stephen's death. The martyr's poise and prayer was a_revelation to the sincere and strict Pharisee. It start- ed a doubt in his mind. He found himself commencing to question his own falth, He felt that if Stephen's words and faith were true, then all his legal ' virtues and-- Judaistic learning were worthless. The secret doubt gave him no rest. He tried to shake it off by persecuting the church, entering into their homes so as to obtain men anad-women whom he could commit to prison.. -Although Jerusalem was under Roman rule, the Jews were allowed to exercise au- thority in all matters pertaining to | their “faith. His persecuting . spirit increased as he cantinued to make havoc in the -ranks of the early church, until he sought and obtained from the high priest the authority to carry his persecution program into Damascus, where he expected to find many followers of the Lord Jesus, EPISCOPAL INSTITUTE TO MEET IN ANACOSTIA The May School meeting of the Sunday uel Church, Anacostia, Tuesday eve- ning at 8 o'clock. The session will be followed by a social, at which the members of the institute are the guests of the parish visited. The speaker of the evening wili be Rev. Dr. Royden Keith Yerkes, an instructor in_the Philadelphia Divin- ity School. Dr. Yerkes is one of the best known theologians in the Epis- copal Church and & man with a force- ful delivery and message. His topic will be “Reading the Bible.” DR. CLARK’S THEME. In the series of sermons on “The Great Questions Asked of Jesus” Rev. Dr. John Brittan Clark of the First Presbyterian Church will preach to- morrow at 11 a.m. on “Wilt Thou That We Command Fire to Come From Heaven and Destroy Them?” At the vesper , service he will preach on “Does Grace Continue?

Saul's Conversion. During his zealous efforts to crush out the church in Jerusalem we have no record of God interfering. He desired them to go forth and preach the gospel. _They appeared to be colonizing in Jerusalem. All this was changed when they were scattere abroad by Saul's efforts. When the persocutor started operations he was stopped by transformation of Saul. conversion was without precedent in its physical and dramatic manifesta- tions, we find in his regeneration the same principles that characterizes every conversion. Washington heard the testimony of .many “twice-born me: dufing the recent mission workers’ convention, whose miracles of salvation were as sudden and last- ing as that of the hero of our lesson today. Conversion is not an ab- normal experience. It is a universal human need. It is the natural ex- nerience in every person's religious life. During the journey from Jerusalem to Damascus he had enforced leisure. In the silence of the desert, while they rested, it was impossible for Saul to escape considering Jesus. Uon his trip from Jerusalem the persecutor had met daily memories of the Nazarene and His work. Just as the sight of the world’s oldest city appeared to break upon his vision he met the crisis of his life. It was a moment of challenge. Suddenly he found himself face to face with the Lerd Jesus. It was not the fanc; of a feverish mind, for the appear- ancg of the risen Savior was un- expected, undesired and unimaginable to him. It was through the thun- der of the sudden midday storm that he- hieard the voice of Jesus saying until -him, “Saul, Saul, why perse- cutest thou Me?" The blinding light, the visioh af the Lord and His voice that identified himself with His dis- ciples filled the trembling soul with conviction. When in answer to his question Jesus identified Himseif as the one whom Saul had been persecuting, the “torrential nature” of the convicted sinner did not hesitate”to acknowl- edge the supremacy of the risen Christ. He immediately expressed the desire to obey the enthroned Savior who had made it clear to Sgul that He was bound to every -one of His subjects. That moment “when it was the good pleasure of God to- reveal His Son” unto Saul was the hour of his conversion and of his call to be an apostle. The Obedient Servant. _ Although Saul's conversion was im- mediate and a complete turning around, he rose from his spiritual new birth in physical darkness. The change was quick and rapid. It took Saul fully three days of communion with his newly found Master to un- derstand the meaning of being a new creation in Christ Jesus. He came to ognize clearly its significance. He new now the truth that Stephen and the Christians had proclaimed that Jesus was risen and that He was the Christ. He also learned that | the way of righteousness, marked by | doing deeds of the law, which he had pursued was a failure. In his desire | for more light the same Jesus had made it evident to him that a man amed Ananias would come and afd him to ‘“receive his sight.” While Saul did not owe his con. version to the work of any one man, the Lord. called a devout disciple named Ananias to visit him and give unto the praying disciple, who had started out to destroy him_and alt the other refugees, the light of his {eves and of the Holy .Spirit. Natu- | rally he hesitated and then went fn |a true brotherly spirit to help Saul his blindness and waiting for his coming the words of Ananias brought cheer, comfort and courage. in nswer to the prayer of the brother disciple, Saul recelved his sight and the gift of the Holy Spirit. Straight- way he was given his sight and “he arose and was baptized” by Ananias. He was not ashamed to obey the Lord or to be -counted among His followers. Looking bac his conversion was like a new birth. “If any man b€ in Christ, he is a new creature.” MANY SHIFTS EXPECTED IN PRIESTS OF:DIOCE Special Dispatch to The Star. BALTIMORE, May 16—More im- portant and more numerous changes will be made among- priests of the archdiocese of Baltimore, which in- cludes Washington, this Spring than for several years. Archbishop Curley has been making a thorough study of the needs of various parishes and is now at work on his plans for numer jous reassignments to relfeve elderly and overyorked priests and to place the younger priests recently from the seminary. The shift of population from one parish {o another is also a factor in the general movement.
