The only place you can now dodge the auto is in your dreams at night. x* Something new in resolutions—"I resolve not to break my New Year's Resol:u'tions:" * 4, a it is about time to hear front the fellbzv who said twelve months ago, that the cold winters with snow, had gone for good. e The bachelor editor of the Signal and the lady editor of the News- Record have been urging lately that leap year was passing. Now they have lost 'their chance unless the editor has been frightened ** After such storms as were cx- n perienced the past 'week,many a farmer who has a hedge along his driveway and the front of his farm which is an inspiring sight to the owner and passerby all summer, wonders if the inconvenience of the large drifts which they cause, do not overshadow their beauty. a 1924. : 1925. "The year has gone beyond recall, With all its'hopes and fears, With all its gladdening smiles With all its mourners' tears." 1924 has passed away into the luny, roll of the past. It has taken its toll and passed on and left its mark upon the world in its own way. Ushered in with political discord in England, it saw the overthrow of the Baldwin Government and the coming to Wilier of the first Labor ministry. Seven months again saw the over- throw of Labor government and the return of Conservatives again under Baldwin, and the almost wiping out of the 'Liberal party. In. Canada, Ontario has much reason to re- member kindly 1924. The weather was temperate in winter with a cold. dry spring and vegetation was in a hopeless condition when abundant rains and splendid growing condi- tions gave the country the largest harvest in history. - Along with this remarkable harvest; prices of grain have gone up so that the farmer has not only 'a large elop, but gool prices. Again, 1924 will be remem- bered for the cool summer, compared with other Canadian 'summers, To Seaforthso it will be recalled for me time as the . year when many old friendships were re -knit and many an Y new ones formed during the first week in August when many who had been away came back and gave and received the glad hand. Yee, 1924 has gone, but like many good friends who also passed with it, it will be kindly recalled. To -day opens a New Year. To Canadians with a marvellous, undeveloped section of almost •nnexplared land and un- developed resources there are many opportunities, and he would he a daring prophet who would attempt to outline the future of our great Do- minion. With vast forest, mine and agricultural reserves awaiting both conservation and development; with lakes teeming with food for man -1 kind. With coal mines awaiting legislation to make fuel products' available to the whole people of( Canada, whowill attempt to outline what 1925 will mean to Canada. Canadians have e to reasonb a proud of their Dominion a+ the brightest gem in the British Empire. Her re- sources should be held for Canadians, and for Canadian industry, and our statesmen, if loyal to Canada. will see that no foreign land shall exploit her wealth, This alone would make a programme of advancement if car- ried out in 1925, I GENERAL OBSERVATIONS 1 .

The instrument in this set are 2 'variometers. 1 variable condenser, capacity .tt005 m£d. Panel 7"x18"xis" or 3-16" and back. Cabinet to suit panel. 8 binding posts. i dials, 1 grid condenser capacity .0005 mid 1 grid leak to match tube, 1 tube. 1 socket to match tube. 1 rheostat to match tube, "A" batteries to match tube, 1-22 5! volt "B" battery. 1 fixed oendenser, cap, .001 mid. I set of phones. This set has many advantages over the ordinary single circuit receiver, chief among which is the control of regeneration. This is accomplished by means of a variometer in the ?late circuit of the tube, placed pre- rerrably twelve inches to the right of the tuning variometer. The variable condenser is placed between the two t:trioineters, and the tube socket and rheostat are placed to the right of the plate v ariometer. If, when a station is tuned in 'the tube is oscillat- ing, rotating the rotar of the plate variometer will make the tube atop 'oscillating, and the position of the tuning dial is the same as when the tube was oscillating. This is a very great advantage, as .compared with the ordinary type of single circuit, as when the rotor of the coupler, which control the regeneration is moved, thea tin is tt gd l must also be changed. The rheostat is tint critical. Now for the wiring an1 placing of parts. The antennae is connected to the rotary + of the . plates variable con- denser. Be sure and make the an- tennae connection with the rotary plates of a variable conden- ser if the condenser is in the an- tennae circuit, and the ground cott- nection with the rotary plates if it is in the ground circuit. By connect- ing the rotary plates as mentioned, a great deal of body capacity is cut nut. The connection of the station- ary plates is to the grid condenser and leak, which is placed as near the socket as possible. The other con- -section of the grid condenser and leak is o the grid post on the socket. The plate is connected to one termi- nal of the other variometer, the other terminal going 10 one of the phone binding posts, The other phone binding post goes to the positive terminal of the "B" battery, The seeative terminal of the "B" battery Is joined to the positive of the "A" battery, the ground, and the "A" Positive post on the binding post. The rheostat is placed in the nega tire lead of the "A" battery, one side being connected to the "A" -post on1 rsocket, t e the other to the nega- tive ega-tive terminal "n of the A battery. 11v theaddition of two stages of two stages of amplification, this set will operate a lour speaker as well as any three tube et. In tuning, place the dial of the first variometer at 98, and have the rotar so turned that at this setting the highest waves will conic in KSD St. Louis,8in 546 metres. Whets this position is' obtained, the condenser dial need not be moved any more, and the stations will ahvay; corns in at the same place 'on the tuning variometer. • The •,001 fixed condenser is placed across' the phone terminals. The set may notwork without this eon - denser, hut it does no harm to have it placed across the phones, McKILLOP. 8.5.
