Hastings, M.O,IL, Toronto Pain is one of our most .valuable friends, yet few of us have ever con- sidered it as such, but rather the con- trary. Fifty years ago we never heard of such a disease as appendicitis, but then we frequently heard of cases of so-called "colic" which 'were ofttimes followed by what was then called "in- flammation of the bowels", which al- most invariably proved fatal. Tho treatment given for colic in those times was almost invariably a sedative of some ]rind, usually opium or some of the alkaloids of opium, such as morphine, heroin or codeine. This only served to mash the real con- dition that existed. The so-called colic .was only a symptom of what observations in connection with post- mortem examinations revealed subse- quently to be what has since been known as "general peritonitis." This general peritonitis was almost invari- ably the result of a perforated appen- dix, or of a neglected case of appen- dicitis. These cases of appendicitis are now diagnosed early and, if promptly operated on, recovery may be hoped for in from 98 to 100 per cent. of the cases. One rarely hears of cases of cells now, or of eases of inflammation of the bowels, nor have we heard of. them for many years. - Wo emphasize this example, as it is one of the most outstanding, as regards the dangers of endeavoring to control a pain of any kind by drugs instead of accepting it as a most valuable danger signal, the non- observauco of which is very likely to be followed by disastrous results. Prompt response to the first twinge of toothache by consulting your den- tist, may be the means of saving a valuable tooth. It is true that pain may simply mean a local irritation, but it so fre- quently indicates serious trouble that we should always endeavor to ascer- tain scertain the cause of the pain.

Many Cars Similar An elaboration of this point is of- fered by the sales manager of a com- pany distributing a popular priced car in a very attractive territory. Ap- pearance, he says, has become stand- ardized to the extent that all cars are low, that a majority have gone to the double -drop frame, • nearly all are vividly colored and finished in lacquer, that lines of many cars in different price classes- are somewhat similar, that exterior parts subject to corros= ion are finished in chromium or nickel or other non-ferrous metal, and tbat sport models in a majority of in- stances are set oft by wire wheels. This visual picture has been pre- sented to the prospective car buyer countless times until. he is very famil- iar with it.. The performance picture, in its details has not been seen so many times and he is more curious about it as a result. With more than 2,000,000 car milts sold yearly as replacements, others point out, it is obvious that a major- ity of new car buyers are experienced automobile operators.

Barre History. • During the past few months history has been mado in the development of Dew circuits, especially suitable, for working with radio waves of such short lengths, where ordinary circuits would ' be useless: The young men who have done the bulk of this work have felt the urge of new worlds to conquer in an unexplored field, with- out any,remutleration except the thrill of hearing another amateur in a coun- try far away "come back" with an ans- wer to his intermittent "CQ's." The CQ is the general pall that amateurs employ when they are trying for dis- tance records. • • • Another amateur hearing a OQ be- ing sent out in code, gets the call let- ters 01 the transmitting station and thou stirs up the ether with his own, feeble but hopeful radio whiepers'in an endeavor to toll the OQer how his signals came in and to find out what type of transmitting apparatus he is using. This friendly spirit of cheer- ful co-operation among amateurs is responsible for most of the important developments that we now enjoy in radia.; the amateurs found out the way and the manufacturers improved and developed the ideas into what we now know as radio. Special Antennas Necessary. The short waves need special enten- na systems for their propagation, an- tennas of the vertical type, worked at the fundamental frequency or at har- monics. Other antenna systems have been developed, such as the feeder and beam types, which may or may not employ directors or reflectors for sending all of tho transmitted energy in one specific direction, while not. radiating in other directions. The field of the short wave offers mucic encouragement for the experi- menter from the angle of special tube development. Tubus that are perfect- ly satisfactory for longer waves may not function properly on short waves.` Hereis the experimenter's chance for development and discovery of the pro- per characteristics for the short wave transmitting tube as well as the shorts wave receiving tubes. New Circuits Utilized Short wave types of receiving cir- cuits are as numebous as they are critical in operation, and although the improvements are coming along at a great rate, there. is plenty ofroom for experiment .and a chance for any ama- teur to ,discoveror devise a radically now departur- And then thee. re 1s the work that will finally prove just why these short waves behave as they do, why they may be -heard at great distances, while the amateur around the block cannot pick them tip, Or why they are able to cover such great distances in the daytime, while ordinary broadcasting on the regular wave band is practical- ly limited to local reception during tho hours of daylight. Ofcourse, some of the reasons are known, but the long train of scientific Mets that are neces- sary to a perfect understanding of„the phenomena are still broken by large gaps that aro being filled one at a time through the- panstaking efforts of the research workers or experi- menters who strive because they love We writ and are curious to find the answers.
