Experiments in radio vision are be- ing rushed along feverishly at the in- ventor's Washington laboratories, where the first public demonstration took place last week. The laboratory force is now developing a new hook- up for the transmitter of the photo- graphs, with which it is hoped to ob- tain more practical results. In addition to the work being done in the laboratories, Dr. Jenkins, the inventor, has offered prizes to the radio amateurs who can furnish him with suggestions as to how radio- wvision can be betterec Stove Causes Fire. An overheated stove was responsi- ble for a fire that started in the house of Mrs. Catherine Simms, 1008 First street southeast, yesterday afternoon and spread to the adjoining house, the home of Mrs. Cecelia Cole.

Regardless of the type of circuit you use in a portable set, some type of serial must be provided which is easy to erect and efficient in opera- tion. As far as portability is concerned, always remember that the fewer the parts used in the construction the lighter the set will be. Also remem- ber that in selecting the circuit care must be taken to use as few tubes as_possible. The greater the number of tubes the greater will be the,current re- quirement of the set and consequently the sooner will your batteries run down. There are two jmportant reasons why the current consumption of a portable set should be kept down to the minimum. The first is that the set with a high current consumption cannot be operated economically or efficlently with small batteries. ~The drain imposed on the batteries of such a set requires that large batteries be carried, and this, of course, increases the weight of the outfit and lessens its value. The second reason lies in the fact that batteries are not easily obtain- able in out-of-the-way places, and it behooves you not to use them up too fast. Current Drain Explained. If you us@a set of the super-hete- rodyne type, your current drain, due to the use of six to eight tubes, will be rather high. With a super-] rodyne it is also necessary to use a loop aerial, and while such aerials are obtainable’ in the folding or small size portable type, the total weight of Jones and the Coo Coo Club, WTAM, Cleveland, 9 to 12 o’clock.

Five-tube sets of the tuned radio frequency, or neutrodyne types are usually much lighter than super- heterodyne sets, and they can be used with small, easily improvised outside or_inside aerials. The use of a smaller number of tubes, with a consequent reduction in current requirementsj makes it posai- Tilden High School Orchestra Sport talk: Euclid Strng Trio Windsor Hotel dinner concert .. ke SR Instrumental solos: talk: Berkley Hotel Orchestra WOR York: Jimmy Clarke And his White Way Entertainers: songs ... i Shelburne Hotel “Concert Orchestra m Dance Benjamin Franklin Hotel Orchestra Boston: Copley Plaza Hotel Orchestra: songs . vocal molos: humorous nro Fred Ehrenbere, ical Ralph Williams and his Rainbo Gardens 5 scintto Brathers' ann_and his orchestra Francis Hotel Dance O 2 TO 3 AM.

Ordinarily, however, very good re- sults can be obtained with sets of the three-tube regenerative types if a fairly good aerial is strung up. The use of this type of set cuts the cur- rent requirements to a minimum, making possible the use of very small A and B batteries. The use of a fairly long aerial permits loud speaker reception even on distant stations. A good portable aerial for sets of this type can be made by buying a cheap clothes-line reel of the type shown in the f{llustration. The rope can be rewound and cut 50 as to leave only a short plece, to ‘which the end of the aerial wire can be fastened. Fifty to 100 feet of bare or insulated flexible wire can then be used as the aerial. When the aerial is no longer required on that particu- lar camp site, the wire can be reeled up quickly and the reel packed away in a very small place. Such a wire can be strung up in a jifty when required. The branch of a tree, the roof of a house or a pole will serve as a support at one end, while the other end can be brought down directly to the set. For such use a high, well insulated antenna is not absolutely essential, because at such distances from high, absorbing slruclul;el t:: l:;hl will act more efficiently than many congested city districts. TS D. C, SATURDAY, JUNE 20, 1925. A GREAT, ELBOW M ME LEF ComE T Fin CLASS B STATIONS NOW EXCEED 100 Number Licensed in U. S. Reaches Total of 101, Pass- ing Century Mark. ‘The number of class B broadcasting stations in the United States this week passed the century mark and now stands for the time being at 101, it was announced by the Department of Com- merce today. The 100th class B li- cense was awarded to station WEBM, of the Atlass Investment Co., Chicago, which will operate on the 226-meter wave length, using power of 1,500 watts. The 10ist B license was awarded to KLDS, the station recently erected by the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saint: | Independence, Mo. KLDS will use the 440.9-meter that of WOS, at Jefferson City, Mo., and has been licensed to use 1,000 watts of power. 47 Wave Bands for Class B. Officially there are but 47 wave bands set aside for the class B sta- . Al of them are filled, with vy broadcasters splitting time, and {in some cases three stations sharing a !single wave length. Since the reallo- cation of the transmitting plants was decided upon last vear and the rear- rangement made, there has been a slow but sure increase in the number of the higher-powered plants. On |March 1 the total was 93, and since !that time an average of almost one new B broadcaster has been added every week. . In addition to the two new class B stations officially welcomed this week, the Department of Commerce awarded class A licenses to five new stations, all of which expect to use limited pow- er of 100 watts or under. The most interesting feature of the week's newcomers was the fact that of the total of seven new stations three are church stations. In addition to KLDS, church stations licensed were WIBF, of the First Presbyterian Church, at Meridian, Miss., and KFVZ, of the Glad Tidings Taber- nacle, at San Francisco. WIBF will use the 209.7-meter wave, with 5 watts of power, and KFVZ has been assign- ed to 234 meters and licensed to use 50 watts. Two Portable Broadcasters. Of the remaining three class A stations, two are portable broadcast- ers. Ome of them is to be known as WGMU, and belongs to A. H. Grebe & Co., on 236 meters and using 100 watts, and the other to be known as WKBG, owned by G. L. Carrell of Chicago, on 215.7 meters and using 100 watts. The fifth class A station is WJBE, owned by Robert E. Hughes of Evanston, Ill, on 205.4 meters, and licensed to operate with power of 20 watts. In announcing these new broad- casting stations officials of the De- partment of Commerce made it clear that only in very rare cases would there be further additions to the B band. Practically the only cities which will have a chance at one of the high wave lengths are those on the Pacific coast, where the conges- tion has not been as great as on the Atlantic, and_where one or two wave lengths used by Eastern broad- casters are not shared by a Pacific plant. Other B licenses may be expected from time to time, but nearly all of them, it was sald, would be plants which will continue to use their class A wave lengths, but will be entitled to increase their power to as high as 2,000 watts or more. BODIES SENT TO CHICAGO West Jersey Train Wreck Victims ‘Were of German Nationality. CHICAGO, June 20 (P).—Thirty- three bodies of the victims of the tourist train wreck on the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railway at Rockport, N. J., arrived in Chicago today. Three others of the 46 dead reached here yesterday. Nearly all of the victims who lost their lives as well as others on the train were Americans of German na- tivity or descent who were en route to sall for a in their fatherland. i~ ME & T o D JAW An' KMock S D' BIG STIFF 1 COLD.

PETER DELIVERED FROM PRISON.—Acts, xil.1-24. Golden Text: The angel of Jehovah encampeth round about them that fear him, and deliv- ereth them—Psalm Xxxxiv.7. Missionaries in China have cabled boards sting _ “earne: Cheistian hi has demonstrated the efficacy of r in protecting God's people in v crucial hour. In the dramatic experience, narrated by Luke in such a graphic manner and with such de- tail that it teaches its own moral, we have the 'record of how the unseen God answered the prayers of His peo- ple and delivered Peter from prison. Herod Agirippa 1 was a grandson of Herod the Great and had succeeded to the rulership of the whole territory once ruled over by his notorious and bloody grandfather. When he made King and lived in the Ho! Land, he carefully observed all the religious rites and ritualistic customs of pharisaic Judaism. He did this from political policy rather than reli- gious conviction, for he lived among the Gentiles like a Gentile. Herod belonged to a bloody and persecuting family. He had attained his throne and enlarged his domin- power through flattery; he kept his power by appealing to the vulgar prejudices of men. He saw that the Christian faith was antagonized by all the sects of Judaism. In an effort to court further favors from the conser- vative leaders, Herod “stretched forth his hands to vex” in many ways the work of the Christians. The condi- tions were more tragic_than the simple record suggests. It was an hour of bitter trial, due to the suffer- ing from famine, that called for the collection of relief funds, when Herod started persecuting the Christians. When Herod unsheathed the sword of the state in opposition to Christianity. he opened a controversy that was de: tined to last for three centuries. He had one of the leading preachers, James, the son of Zebedee, executed. ‘When he observed its popularity with the religious authorities, Herod had Peter arrested and imprisoned. The death sentence was passed upon this aggressive and foremost apostle, but its execution was delayed until the close of the Passover festivities. Peter Imprisoned. During the sacred week no execu- tions could occur. They guarded him very carefully so that at the end of the week he could be brought before the multitude as a condemned prison- er to meet his death. Herod had not considered the Lord and His plans to use Peter*in connection with His church’'s development. He gave Peter peace so that he slept while four qua- ternions of soldlers watched to prevent a second escape. The church aroused by the danger sought aid from God in prayer. In response to their petitions, we have a description of how Peter was delivered. The great apostle hav- ing put his trust in his Lord was not expecting any such deliverance! Ap- parently he was under the control of Herod, but the prayers of the church had reached an unseen power, who proved that He would not allow the State to determine the spiritual life of His church or to control the life of His servants. ‘We have a statement of the details of Peter's rescue, because when the apostle understood the matter, he realized from the details the intention of the Lord. When the angel, or messenger of God, who had accom- plished the impossible, left Peter in a sort of daze, the apostle evi- dently had not realized the signifi- cance of the events as they followed one after the other. It was after considering them that “He knew of a truth that the Lord had sgnt His mes- senger and delivered hinf out of the hand of Herod, and from the expecta- tion of the Jews.” There are three supernatural incidents in connection with this marvelous rescue that has kept some from obtaining the help they ought to gain from believing it. The narrative has all the marks of being truthful. Luke probably re- cefved it from Peter, who told him of his bewilderment and how by con- sidering all the facts, he came to be- lieve that God had life, but like Peter we can detect God's hand removing numberless obstructions, overwhelm- ing opposition and mastering insur. mountable difficulties by doing the impossible. . Christians Encouraged. It did not take Peter long to make up his mind where to go. He turned his steps toward the home of Mary, the ‘mother of Mark, who later was to become a fellow-worker.. While DIs GuY they were praving Rhoda heard a knock and recognized the voicgof the distinguished apostle. Forgetting to open the gate, she burst into the meeting with the news that Peter was without. They could not believe her, for they had not expected such a miraculous deliverance. \When Peter entered he convinced them that the Lord had rescued him, urged them to |inform the other groups, so that James, the pastor of the Jerusalem hurch, and the other brethren should be Informed and comforted. Although | Peter departed to another place, they | were “convinced that the gospel they stood for was based on divine realities, that God was with them and heard their prayers, and that their perplexi- ties were temporary.” According to tradition, Peter, who recognized that he had been delivered for service, went to Rome, although the Scriptures are silent as to where he went upon his departure. Later we find him in Antioch, and after Herod's miserzble death the great apostle resumed his labors in Jerusa- lem. The manner of the King's death produced a deep impression upon the church, which saw in it the direct in- tervention of God for its protection and the chastisement of its enemies. Josephus In his account agrees with the record of Luke. Both see in his death a just punishment from Heaven because Herod failed to reject the im- plous flattery that the people extended to him in worshiping him as a god after his return to Caesarea. A few days after the King's return | from Jerusalem he was called upon ta arbitrate some difficulties that had arisen between Tyre and Sidon and to celebrate games in honor of the re. covery of Claudius, the Emperor. He appeared upon the second day of the games arrayed in a silver tunic, on which the rays of the morning sun hed a dazzling brightness. He ex- cited universal admiration, and the flatterers sought to curry his favor by calling him a god. In that moment he was smitten with a loathsome dis- ease. Eaten of worms, he died, ex- claiming, “I, the god, am about to die. Death has already seized him whom men called immortal.” Herod's death ended for the moment the persecution of the Church, for the word of God grew and muitiplied. The work that had been hindered by persecution commenced to grow as a result of the complete victory of God that was given to His followers in answer to prayer. Praying Christians produce miracles of grace every day, as the prayers of the Jerusalem Church did in securing the freedom of Peter. PALMS $2,600 PIN. Thief Substitutes Worthless Arti- cle for Jewelry. \ A clever pennyweight trickster palmed a $2,600 ruby and diamond pin from Shaw & Brown, jewelers, at 1114 F street, shortly after noon yesterday. The old pennyweight artifice of sub- stituting a worthless trinket for a val- uable gem was successful. A dapper young man, who probably had the worthless pin concealed in his hand, ‘walked into the store and asked to be shown a tray of pins from the show- case. During the inspection he sub- stituted the worthless and filched the $2,600 pin. The stolent pin had 13 rubles and 130 diamonds in the setting. It was about an inch and a half long. The theft was not discovered until one of the clerks was rearranging the pins on the tray. Police were furnished with a detailed description of the man. DOG DAYS COMING.

In recommending the muzzling or- der Dr. Fowler said: “I am conscious of the fact that there are a number of dog owners not in sympathy with a dog-muzzling order, but it seems to me that, in view of the large number of persons who have been bitten by dogs during the present fiscal year, many of whom have been young chil- dren, some steps should be taken to pmlt(ec! the public against these at- Since July, 1924, the Commission- ers were informed, 495 ns have been bitten dogs im the District. two these animals were to be suffering from rabies.
