By the Associated Press. Conqueror of the vast expanse and static of the Atlantic during the World War, the Navy's famous old arc trans- mitter at Sayville, Long Island, is to go into action again. The station, recently acquired by the Postal Telegraph & Cable Co., will be used for shore-to-ship service. It has a distinguished war record, first in the service of Germany and later of the United States. Originally built for and controlled by the German Telephone Co., the station was taken over by the Navy Department when the United States entered the war. Prior to that while the United States was a neutral nation Navy radio operators had been placed in the station as censors. From 1914 to 1916 the station, oper- with proven directions. For sore throat, there’s a swift and sure way to soothe away the inflammation. Every singer knows the secret! Dissolve Bayer Aspirin tablets in pure water, and gargle. Nothing in the whole realm of medicine is more helpful in cases of sore throat. And you probably know how Aspirin dispels a headache; breaks up colds, relieves rheu- matic pain, neuralgia, neuritis, lumbago! Just make certain to get genuine Bayer B Aspirin;; it has Bayer on the box, and on each tablet. All druggists, Physicians prescribe Bayer Aspirin; it does NOT affect the heart Awplein 19 the trade mark of Bayer Manufacture of Monoaceticacidester of Salleylieacld U. S. Navy's Famous Static Conqueror Of World War Again in Active Service ating in conjunction with the Nauen station in Germany, was the principal means of rapid communication between | Germany ‘and the outside world, as all the cables radiating from the central powers were cut by the allies. When the Navy took over the Say- ville station it depended on a 60,000~ watt spark transmitter for transocean communication. A 200,000-watt arc, a Danish invention, was installed and the station became one of the glants of the Navy's high-power chain. With the dispatch of American expeditionary forces to Europe the cables became overloaded and the United States was | dependent on radio for rapid communi- cation with its forces and the allies. In this emergency Sayville rendered In- valuable service. | Now the old arc is to be remodeled Fo 5 TONSILITIS and SORE THROAT and wear a modern filtering system to prevent its harmonics from interfering with reception in the vicinity. The Federal Radio Commission has under consideration the request of the Postal company for a permit authprizing the reconstruction of the station and the installation of high frequency trans- mitters. | | Sockets an Important Factor./ Sockets for use with AC tubes should | be the best obtainable.

H.s “yrrrow mask” made you despczz'r of beauty: Dental science has a new, quick way of erasing that unfashion- able yellowish tinge—just try it! Don't resign yourself to the idea that your teeth are natu- rally yellow. Or that glisten- ing white teeth are for others —not for you. All teeth are a beautiful ivory white, yours included. Only a glassy yel- low mask obscures the dazzl- ing whiteness. Here’s where that unlovely yellowish tinge comes from and here’s how to dispel it. In your saliva is a “liquid cement.”” It glues to your teeth—then hardens. Foods, coffee and tobacco stain this mask, for it is also an ab- sorbent. To rid enamel of this mask your dentist uses a precious sub- stanceknownas “Tri-Calcium il \ I\ W, \Y Phosphate.”” But only now has dental science found a way toembody this famous cleaning agent in a pleasant, tasty tooth paste. That is why, until now, you have never been able to dislodge that yellow mask. The name of this new and mar- velous dentifrice is ORPHOS Tooth Paste. Oftenitdoes in one brushing what others havefailed todoovera period of years. The effects are truly amazing. Yet ORPHOS con- tains nothing that could do the slightest harm to the sofe- est enamel—no grit, no acid. So effectiveis ORPHOS that we give you this guarantee: Buy a tube. Use it 20 days. If by a single chance it fails to whiten, return unused part of tube to your druggist and get your money back. Could anything be fairer? /7 7 / word on antenna systems, a sclentific paper on methods for the calculation of antenna capacity has just been com- pled by Prederick W. Grover, consulting physicist of the Bureau of Standards, parallel horizontal wires, cage, umbrella, fan or harp antenna. Formuias derived by him were published by the Bureau of Standards in 1917.

To calculate the capacity of an an- tenna, & certain electrical charge is as- sumed upon the antenna and the re- sulth potentiffl is determined. One difficuity in carrying out this method s that, in general, the law of distribution of charges is not known, Mr. Grover de- clares. G. W. O. Howe, noted English physicist, made the assumption that sufficient ucancy is attained if first a bution of charge s sup- | Emed to exist and the potential calcu- | ted at various points of the antenna wire, the average of these potentials being taken as the final potential. Discrepancies Cited. “Howe called attention to discrepan- cles between values obtained by his method and values for the same an- charge distribution was only imperfectly taken into account, Mr. Grover says. .
