A crystal Is a better detector
,than a tube. That is why crystal
detectors are used in most reflex
jsets and in : many other radio fre
quency sets. A-tube is valuable be
cause you get' regeneration and
amplification, at the same time you
pet detection, which means a louder
signal, but the tube is beaten by the

Keep the solution of your storage
battery at a level of 14 inch above
the plates, otherwise the plates will
corrode and buckle, ruining the cell.
An aerial for a crystal set should
be- made long, as the crystal has no

A one-tube regenerating set will
bring in all the statfbns that a
three-tube set will, the only advan
tage of a three-tube set being that
it will operate a" loud speaker. An
audio frequency amplifier merely
amplifies the signal after the de
tector has made it audible.
Three dry cells will have to be

HOW DEATH VALLEY WAS
NAMED

Karly in the spring they had left the
Miilille West, HK) waKotm Ktrong, for
the gold fields of California. Then the
fatal decision of a part of the train
to try a short cut across the moun
taiim hud brought them into this vat
ley whose tloor was more tlinu 'J00
feet below the level of the sea. In it
they wandered for weeks of torment.
Again the party split One group,
Ittl persons In all, young bachelors from
Illinois who culled themselves "The
lu.vluiv.kers," pressed on toward the
mountains. Sonic of them died of
starvation, some of thirst ami others
went umd and wandered away Into
the desert. In. all 13 perished before
they fought through to sufety.
The other party, men with families,
found a tiny spring and camped there
to rest. Then food supplies ran low.
Their oxen begun to die and their
wagons to fall apart In the blistering
sun. So Asaliel Dennett, their lender,
sent two young fellows, Will Manley
und John Itogers, forth to find a way
out of the trap. As they departed
Mrs. Kennett gave Mauley a double
handful of rice half of ull she had
and silently pointed to the hunger
pinched faces of her ctdldren.
The emigrants now sut down to
wait for the return of the two scouts.
A week passed two three and still
they did not return. At the end of
the fourth week all except Asahel llen
netts wife abandoned hope. "They
will come back," she declared stead
fastly. But they did not, und the enil
grants resolved upon one final desper
ate attempt. They began stripping
the canvas covers from the prairie
schooners and making pack saddles to
cinch upon their emaciated oxen.
And then Manley nnd Itogers re
turned 1 They spoke but briefly of
the days of horror spent In struggling
from one waterhole to the next across
the 250 miles of the Mojnve desert, of
the dend of the Jayhawker party
whom they found along the trail. But
they had brought food and, mowt vital
of all, they had found a way out.
They guided the party on the long

range. As the emigrants reached the
crest and looked back Into the In

Asahel Bennett's wife raised her arms

OUR FIRST NATIONAL PARK
The act of congress In 1823 which set
aside the Hot Springs of Arkansas and
four sections of adjoining land "for
the future disposal of the United
States, not to be entered, located or
appropriated for any other purpose
whatever," forged Into existence the
first link In our present cliuln of world
excelling national parks.
This act performed a double purpose
In that It also served to perpetuate
and preserve these now celehruted
springs from commercial monopoly or
exploitation. ,
The Hot Springs Natlonul park res
ervation contains upwards of WW acres
and Is located in the city of Hot
Springs, which Is not far from the cen
ter of the state. The altitude of the
city Is about 600 feet, while that of
the surrounding hills Is about 1,200
feet above sea level.
There are 40 hot springs In this
group. All of them flow put Into a
narrow valley, from the base of whut
la known as Hot Springs mountain.
There are also quite a number of cold
springs here, and their waters are used
both for drinking and In the treatment
of those who visit this region with the
hope of leaving their Ills behind them
when they return home. The combined
flow of all of these springs reaches the
enormous volume of more than 750,000
gallons every 24 hours.
Tradition would huVe ua believe
that the Indians were familiar with
the medicinal value of these springs
In the days before the coming of the
Spanish explorers, florae 400 years
ago; that the several tribes fought
bitterly at various times for their con
trol, In the belief that the "Great
Spirit" was ever present In them.
The temperature of the waters from
these various springs varies from 102
to 147 degrees the average ranging
from 135 ta 147 degrees. These waters
contain some twenty different kinds
of mineral matter and ara radio-active.
These hot springs offer relief from
many of the ailments whlcJi beset the
human race. ' There are 17 iarge pay
bathhouses under governmental super
vision. The rates for baths and serv
ice are fixed by the director of natlonnl
park service at Washington. he park
Is administered by a resident superin
tendent and Is open all tne year.

DALLAS AND BETHEL
WIN TENNIS TOURNAMENT
The tennis tournament held here
Saturday was one of the most inter
esting events of the whole meet.
Many fine plays were made and we
witnessed some splendid "makings"
for future tennis stars. The spirit
of the schools was also unusual and
we all admired the cheerful manner
in which all losses and gains were
made. We felt quite sure that if they
all kept up the good work, the
matches will be doubly interesting
next year.
In men's singles Dallas won first
place. Their star, Mr. Warden, was
fine and all admired his skillful plays.
Bethel won first place in the wom
an's singles, Doris Sears, a freshman
of Bethel high school, surely played
an exceptionally fine game. She did
not lose a single set and her school
should be proud of her. There is a
big future for Miss Sears and we
hope she will take advantage of it.
For men's doubles, Dallas again
took first place. Shreeve and Holt,
their stars won all five sets and made
a splendid showing for themselves
and for their school.. Dallas and
Bethel tied in women's doubles for
first place. Helen Piany and Dorris
Sears of Bethel won all four sets.
Augusta Gorlingcr and Helen Lew
is of Dallas lost but one set.
