Now make the last connection by joining the “G™ terminal of trans- former 14 with the “G” terminal of socket 17, If you have followed the wiring directions carefully the wiring is now completed and you can get the set into operation by following the direc- tlon for making connections to the batteries, antenna und groufid. tiohn (pink) t run tip ja n, ¥ the the The Antenna and Ground System. For best results in selectivity and Jlume an outside aerial of t, including lead, is sufficient. For those who cannot erect a good outside aerial because of limiting fac- tors of house construction, such as gable roofs, etc., excellent results can be obtained by the use of a mub- antenna, the underground type of an- tenna now available. This type of aerial is installed very easily if you have room in your court or yard to dig a hole 3 feet in diameter and about 3 feet deep. The results on local stations are even better than with an outside aerfal and the volume on distant stations is very good. How to Connect Up the Set. It is an easy matter to connect up the batteries, aerial and ground to operate the recefver. The best way of making the battery connections is to connect the red wire of the cabelug connector with the positive (plus) terminal of the “A" battery. The green wire should be connected with the negative (minus) terminal of the “A” battery. The yellow wire should be connected with the negative (minus) terminal of the 90-volt “B” battery. The 90-volt “B" battery can be obtained by connect- ing two 45-volt or four 2215-volt “B™ batteries in serie: The blue wire should be connected with the 45-volt terminal of the “B’ hattery and the pink wire should be colnnected with the 90-volt terminal of the -“B" battery. \ The antenna wire should be con- nected with the antenna post, number 19 of the set. The ground wire should be connected with the ground post, number 18. The tips of the loud speaker cord should be inserted into the tip jacks, numbers 156 and 16.

His companion checked him. “Get ahead with the buying and let me hear from you continually, John," he directed. “I shall be off to Monte Carlo in a day or two. There’s always @ bed for you at the Villa, or a room at the hotel, if you feel like running down as my guest.” ‘Shouldn’t I love it!" the other sighed, with a glance through the win- dow at the murky obscurity outside. “I might take you at your word.” Hargrave rose to his feet. “You'll be very welcome at any time,” he said, as the two men strolled toward the door together. At the corner of Bond street Har- grave came face to face with Miss Violet Martin. Save for his recently awakened interest, he would cerlainly have failed to recognize her. She wore a shabby mackintosh, a hat once becoming enough, but whose antiquity was only justified by the abominable weather, and the umbrella, which she was clutching in her hand, displayed at least one partially naked rib.
