THE SELF CONFIDENCE OF YOUTH
".' - Years azo the nveragre young person of nineteen or twenlj
years was still a boy or girl. If brought up in a loving home and
under erood parents, these young folks did about what their fath
ers and mothers thought best. Many young won.cn would restrain
. this habit of asking permission of their parents long after they
". were of legal age and they would not think of acting contrary U
the decision of fathers and mothers. Today a new spirit of incle
"nendence and initiative is stirrine the youth of the land. It is not
wholly for the good. A great many raw youths feel at their soph
omorie age that they know all that is worth knowing and they look
; with contempt at the prudent caution of their elders. The young
people of 20 years of age today are much more advanced than
their fathers and mothers were at the same age. They have seen
more of the world, know more of its good and evil, frequently have
tasted too much of its fast life for their own benefit. Whethei
this is a condition lending toward advance or retrogression would
- be hard to say. This spirit indicates more power to do things.
vihoihor fnr annul nr fnr pvil It. will rpHiilr in li minors, manv serl-
ous and tragic mistakes. These sell confident young people leei
a new sense of power and are anxious to try their wings, and il
mitnv fnl! inln rl iM'ie nit in mnnv nlhora u-ill flrrnmnlish some re
markable flights at an early age. The question as to how soon
young people should be independent of their parents, and wher
they should be at liberty to strike out for themselves without inter
ference, is a difficult problem. Many parents weakly yield when
they should manifest firm authority. Some, however, who have
trustworthy children that could be allowed to go it alone, may
prejudice their affection and friendship by too close restraint.
The so-called macadam road was originally devised by Johr,
IfcMcAdam, who in 1827 was appointed supervisor of the British
metropolitan roads,. When he first proposed broken stone high
ways, people demurred at using such an expensive and unneces
sarily hard surface. About 10 years ago, plain and surface treat
ed macadam wa3 considered among the highest forms of paving
for country roads, but now engineers regard it as among the cheap
er and softer types, unsuited to heavy traffic. On federal aided
roads six times as much cement concrete is being put in. The ques
tion arises whether the taxpayers can stand the strain of building
roads that will hold the tremendous traffic now going over them.
The toilsome farmer laboriously drives his loads over rutty roads,
and is thankful if ho can get improvements made with gravel,
sand, clay, or other local mixtures, while the pleasure cars from
the city go whizzing by on the boulevards on cement floors almost
smooth enough to dance on.

How to Make and Use It fc

XI. CONDENSERS
These appliances are a most Impor
tant part of a wireless set, as with
out them the oscillation, even If
detected by Die Instruments, would
lie very weak un.l faint. They "rr
divided broadly Into two clause known
as Fixed CoiideiiM're and Variable
Condensers, the former being ihe aliiip-
! lent, and the latter the must efficient.
fur while a fixed condenser Is always uf
one capacity and cun only be Increased
or decrease by adding to or sub
tracting from the nuinlier of sheets,
the variable t'i may be altered or
adjusted at will by a knob or handle,
thus tuning or adjusting the receiving
circuit exactly as t'tnlna: coll Is ad-Jus-ted,
but much more delicately, us
the adjustment of a tunlnir coil con
sum lu shortening the length of coll
by Jumping connection- from one turn
of wire to another to ulter wave
lengths, whereas, the condenser ud
JuMtinent Is alow, even and Gradual and
altera capacity; but it must not be
fortrcitteti that for wireless telephony
receiving, both a condenser and some
sort of coll or similar device must b
straight! employed to get satisfactory results.
The simplest form of Used condenser
consists of a number of alternating
sheets of tin-foil and wuxed paper or
mica, the alternate sheets of foil be
ing connected by wires which are In
turn connected with the terminals'
where required.
To make a fixed condenser it Is only
necessary to lay sheets of tin-foil be
tween sheets of waxed paper nnd con
nect them. A very 'efficient little
llxed condenser, to be used by shunt
ing across thn receivers of a small set.
or us a grld-condencr with a vacuum
tube set, can be made as shown In
Fig 23. Have gome smooth tin-foil,
free from holes or tears, and cut two
pieces about one Inch la length arid
one-half an Inch wide. Then, from
thoroughly waxed paper which can
be purchased or can be made by soak
ing good quullty writing paper In
puraflkue wax cut three pieces 21a
Inches in length and 2 Inches wide. On
one of these pieces place a piece of
the foil ; then cover this with a second
strip of paper, place the other strip of
foil over this and cover with the
last strip of paper. He very sure that
the edgea of the tin-foil are well wlth-
Originally business moil's associations devoted most of their
energies to (retting new industries nnd promoting the interest of
merchants. But as the movement has expanded, U is now devoting
lis attention to all interests in the community. Many chambers of
commerce are working for prosperity for labor, and welfare of
wage earners, as essential to city success. They run employment
bureaus, and give all possible service to the man looking for work.
They try to diversify the industries of the city, and get in indus
tries that will keep operating at all times when others are dull, so
that shut downs will not all como at one time. Also they work for
impartial settlement of labor troubles and to remove causes of
friction before they become acute. Industrial harmony and stead.
employment will do more for the growth of a citv than anything
else.

Next cut two pieces of

with a few drops of hot pnratline fix
them In place on the edges of the
paper. Then, roll the whole, being
careful not to displace the foil (this
may be secured to euch piece of paper
with a few drops of panilllne at the

across your phone receiver wires, but
If using It In a vacuum tube set you
must use u grid-leak shunted across
It. This Is merely a piece of cardboard
placed between two binding-posts or
terminals nnd with several soft lead-1
pencil lines drawn across It from post
to post. In order to be sure that a
good connection Is made, draw pencil
marks about the holes where posts nre
to be Inserted. The distance between
posts should be not over live-eighths
of an Inch. Sometimes drawing Ink
(made of carbon, for writing bik xvill
not serve) Is used In place of lead
pencil, but the lutter has the advantage
thut the lines can be varied or ad
justed to give best results by means
of nn eraser.
Vurlnhle condensers are much more
1 i lllcii It to mnke and while any in
genious boy can make them, it la
usually cheaper to purchase them
ready made. There are two common
forms, one known as the sliding plate.
Fig. 20, the other as the rotary, Fig. 27.
The former consists of a number of
metal plates, which slide buck and
forth In a frame, cuse or box provided
with grooves and fixed plates. The
rotary type consists of a number of
semicircular plates of metal so ar
ranged as to rotate or swing past a
series of fixed discs. In each form,
the air spaces between the plates cor
respond to the wnxed paper between
the strips of foil on the fixed con
densers. Hy means of either of these
two variable forms, fine adjustment
of capacity may be obtained. Many
people cannot understand the func
tion of a condenser, but, broadly
speaking. It Is to store up electrical
energy and then suddenly release It,
ns the current pnsslng through Is In
terrupted, varied or broken, or, In
other words, to Increase the oscilla
tions. Although most small sets will op
erate with a fixed condenser and a
variable one Is not necessary, yet the
variable type will always Improx-e the
receiver and will permit much finer
tuning than a tuning coil of any type
by Itself.
