Daylight Saving Likely to Disturb Broadcast Programs. Broadcasting schedules will under- go their annual mix-ups, beginning next Monday, when daylight-saving time will become efféctive in many cities.

Reproduction Prohibited. The FElectron Theory—Part I. While it is not absolutely necessary to know anything about the electron theory to understand the workings of a radio circult or to operate a re- ceiver, the wideawake fan who really wants to know the whys and where- fores of electrical theory and practice should understand, at least in a gen- eral way, this important theory of electrical ‘action. The electron theory is a compara- tively new line of reasoning which has for its object the explanation of the composition of matter and the action of electrical forces. It has found general acceptance and is looked upon as the most authoritative ex- planation of the composition of matter and the action of electrical forces. Until recent years, the atom was considered the ~smallest particle of | matter which could be obtained. Now, however, the electron theory states | that the atom is composed of smaller | elements to which the name ‘elec- trons” has been given. The smallest unit of matter, then, is | considered to be the electron. All electrons, regardless of the elements which they make up by various com- | binations, are the same. Their ar- rangement and number determines | the element -which 1s formed by their combinations, Has Electrical Charge. An atom, or the smallest particle of element which can be obtained | having the physical, and chemical | “haracteristics of the element, is com. | rosed of u positive electrical charge, | with aseoclated negative electrons. | An atom consists of a positive charge | »r nucleus about which one or more clectrons revolve in a minfature re.| production of & solar svstem. The | number of electrons which revolve | wound the positive nuceus at a high ! rate of speed determine whether the | atom is gold, silver, nitrogen or any | of the other 92 known elements. | Very few of the materials that are | n common use pure elements. | Salt, for instance, is made up of a| ombination of the elements metallic | sodium and the gas chlorine; water fs | omposed of oxygen und hydrogen | toms. The smallest particle of salt hat can be obtained, having the same | “hemical composition as salt. namely, | i atom of sodium for every atom of | hlortne, is called a molecule of salt. | ‘n water there are two atoms of hy- trogen for every atom of oxygen, and | he smallest particle of water obtain- | able, containing two atoms of hydro-| en und one atom of oxygen, is a mole- ule of water. Atoms Extremely Small. These atoms and molecules are ex remely small; so small that they can- 10t be seen by even the most power- ‘ul microscopes. Sir Oliver Lodge itates that the diameter of the av- srage atom {s one-millionth part of a housandth of an inch. | The average small piece of a ma-| erfal or substance or drop of water or | iquid contains millions of atoms and nolec The important points to et n connection with electrons, atoms, | molecules and substances is that an dlectron 18 & minute charge of nega- ive electricity and that all electrons ! wre the game for any material, pr The LONG-LIF for your tically bearing out the old ideas.
