THE SIMPLEST SENDING SET Although It may be possible to de vise a transmission set or radiophone which Is simpler than that shown In Fig. C8, It Is questionable If anything Impler would really be efllclent. At any rate, this Is so extremely simple that the veriest amateur should have no dlfllculty In setting It up. It has only two adjustments, the rheostat and the varluble cpndeoser. More over, It Is n very cheap set and, aside from the butteries, there Is nothing which need be purchased ready-made (eAcpt wire) other than the follow ing: X Vnrlablo con lenser of .0005 mfds.

O'volt storage battery (ordinary dry batteries may bo used). 2 Fixed condensers of .0005 mfd. 1 Modulation 'transformer or an old typo Ford spark coll. 1 Rheostat.

Among the things that Mr. l'lerco has prated about to farmer audiences 1b the difficulty that tho furmer las had and atill has In obtaining money cheaply enough and for sufficient length of time to enable him to con duct the ordinary transactions of his business affairs. One of the fund which has been created for the farm ers of Oregon, from which they might obtain money at a lower rate of in terest, Is the Irrodiuibh) school fund. We have heard U great deal about tha oacrudness of this fund both from Mr. Iierce and from somo of his Demo cratic allies,.. Mr. liereo has been $V? ,,i "i "V 4 I Ir UI til.. A VMUll very fonu of this fund in tne pant much fonder-than ,even his earnest speed. eB In behalf of cheaper money tot tfi farmer would Indicate. Let us IDjstrate Mr. lierco's deep af fenth :i and abiding love for this source of cli( ap money. The creators of' the Irreducible school fund wished to provide loans for si-.all farmers on tho theory that the ; irgor farmers such as Mr. I'ler"(. is (tho assessed value of hie prop-' ty 'being J253.000.00) are able to ta ie care of themselves. They passer statutory enactment to the ef fect t' at no one individual could bor row f; om this fund an amount greater than ! 5,000; nor could he get his loan for a. longer period than ten years, and b should be permitted to borrow It at t te low rate of 6. Acc irdlng to the records of Union Count ' (Book 36 of Deeds, page 521), Walto- M. Pierce sold to Charles M. Tier , his brother, one of his tracts of land. :or the sum of $15,600.00. This trans; ?tlon occurred on November 16th, "903. Sovn days later, Charles M. Pierce borrowed $5,000.00, the limit that he could !?ot from the school fund, from the Slate Land Board. Sewn days after the money was borrowed on this farm, Charles Pierce sold it back again to his Brother Wal ter. f( r a consideration of $15,600.00 the ;xact amount that he paid for it and 11. e record states that Walter M. Pierce assumes and agrees to pay the mortg-y;e. . Nov 'mber 16, 1903 on the same day on which Walter sold property to his br ither Chorles he also sold, an other farm to his sister, Minnie Pierce For this farm he received $16, 600.00. On the same day that Brother Charlrs borrowed $5,000,00 from the Statu Land Board, Sifter Minnie also borroved $5,000.00 from the State Board the acknowledgment of this tranpneAft. bjikig taken by Walter M. Pierre, rifhuolf,' as Notary Public In Union County. For some reason or other, Minnie B. Plo.ce did not like the farm she had bough 1 from Walter, any more than Brotbi r Charles liked his farm, for on LHcember 12 (19 days after she had e'ven the mortgage), she sold the farm back to Walter for $16,600.00, the e: act sum that she paid for it, Walt !: M. Pierce again kindly assum ing ai d agreeing to pay the mortgage. Nov imber 16th, 1903, seems to have been n very busy day for "Walter M."; for, In addition to the farms that he sold ti his brother Charles and his sister Minnlo, he alBO sold, on the same i'.ay, another farm to his brother Goor;r , for the consideration of $15, 600.00. By a strange coincidence, George also h id to borrow some money on his newlv purchased farm and, on Novem ber 2 , 1903 the same day that his brother Charles borrowed $5,000.00 froia ho Stato Land Board brother Oeorr-fllBo borrows $5,000.00 from the State '..and Board. Rvii'ently brother Ooorgo didn't like his bi -gain any better than the other relatives for, a fow days later to-wit: Deceit bor 16th, 1903, he sold the farm back to Walter for $15,600.00, the same amount that he paid for It, Waller again assuming tho $5,000.00 mortgage. This sum seems to be a lavoi i'e In the Pierce family for it is tho f' i no amount that Brother Charles had pild ior his farm, on the same day. Rvldently Walter did not care to sho v any partiality between his two brothers. It may not be of any" bene fit to he account of this transaction, but 11 vertheless It should be noted that t eso considerations, received by Walto. for the sale of these farms to his r lalivos, Is slightly over three times the $5,000.00 mortgage. The State Law requires that the State Land loard can make no loans from tho Irieduelble School Fund for more than ( no-lhlrd tho value of the prop erty Ii volved, but that Walter should always, sell for thrice the limit he could iorrow, may bo a mere Incident. No mbor 16, 1903, was apparently a rem irkable day in Walter's Real F-stni.' career for, in. addition to the throo farms above mentioned, which ho sol 1 that day to his brothers qnd sister, ho also sold a farm to Thomas J. Tv. ( edy, a near friend of his, folj be flat n nsldoratlqn of .flMOOO. . It r 3ms""too Strang to be true, but Thon . a Tweedy, on November 23rd tho ; 1110 day that othor mortgages were undo to the State Land Board, also I rrowa $5,000.00 of tho sacred lrred :. Ible school fund, and, to make the co ncldenco still moro remarkable, 011 I!'eniber 12th, heboid the place back t-i Walter M. Pierce for $1(7,000.00 the -xact amount ho paid for it the in'ablo Mr. Pierce agreeing to,as same .uid to pay ttio $5,000.00 mort gage. Put his does not account for all Mr. Pievc traiiKartfons on that busy day. Kvl.l. 1 tly, they were having a "sell-yonr-i-rm" clay on November 16th, In I'iihiu County, for Walter on that day ells .0 ono George W. Tato, a lim it'' --s associate, another one of his tinnier ma Union County farms, receiv ing f. r this fno $17,200.00. This niiiui.iii received for this place would Indie. ,'i that Walter drove 11 harder h.ii'iMt 1 with his business associates than lu did with his relatives. Bui, If November 16th was "sell your !. rm-diiy" In Union County, Kov einbi - 2:ird was also "mortgage-your-farm-. I ly" fof3 tho Stato Land Hoard. For !'!. records show that George W. Tate. ,11 that day, borrowed $5,000.00 from t io Siito Land Board the mort gage n te being acknowledged in statu tory f irm before Walter M. l'lerco hliiixo!', as Notary Public for Union Count.' . How tho minds of the purchasers, of these various tracts ran "willingly along" together, is indicated by the fact th it Mr. Tato, on November 80th, seven lays after he made his real es tate deal, sold his newly-purchased place back to Walter M. Pierce, for $17,2oi 00 the same amount he had paid 1 r'it, Mr. Pierce again kindly ucre. 1 g to assume ami pay the inort IMKO. la ' (to of these largo transaction In I.'. .

The purpose of the compulsory public school attendance hill is to insure the Instruction of all Oregon children of grammar school age In a common language, a common history and common Ideals, to the end that American unity shall be promoted. American ideals safeguarded and American insti tutions perpetuated. This bill Is proposed hecauso Its supporters believe that only by universal education of our children on standard and uniform lines can these things be achieved. This bill proposes no religious restrictions. It contemplates no limitation of the right of the parent to teach religion to his child In his own way and according to his own belief. It raises no issue of religious difference. This bill Is purely a measure to Insure that all children by attending the public schools shall be taught alike "during their grammar school years, so that their outlook may grow to be a unified outlook for the common weal and for their country and Its institutions. To make an all-Amerlcan nation we must have all-Amerlcan instruction of our children along recognized standard lines.
