I Radio In exercising- a direct effect in the quality of automo biles. Some time ago the Packard Motor Car company developed a machine, using principles involved In radio transmission, for the ius spectlon of piston pin. Now Pack ard Is using radio equip men t for measuring the sound of bearings. Each roller or ball hearing go ing into a Packard car is run on n soundless spindle and the noise It makes while operating is meas ured. If It exceeds a fixed stand ard the hearing is rejected. Tho testing is done in a sound proof room especially construct ed for the work. In etffeet the" action of a radio receiving set Is reversed. A . loud speaker takes In the sound and passes It thru the set. The sound Is amplified and t )c volume registered on a dial gauge. So sensitive Is the device that a low voiced "ah" uttered in the farthest corner from the loud spehker sets up a violent flutter of the needle -on the gauge. About a year ago, a local "Thrift"; exhibit originated by .11. C Hrom ley. advertising manager of The California. Power Company created! widespread interest and eoceived ( favorable publicity in several nm- ional publications. The exhibit was based upon the thrift of the local ' colony of woodpeckers nnd was. used In connection with advertising1 Copco Preferred Stock. j Js'ow, if you happen to pass tho Copco windows on West Main st. ! you will see another "Thrift" dis play, also taken from nature. Thisj time the "buy bee" is used as a; motif by Mr. Itromley and the ef fectiveness of the display can rend-! ily be judged by the crowds of , people gathered about the window. The central figure of tho exhibit is a big meter box taken from one of the Copco poles on the East I Side. This box looked good to a! locrl colony of bees who selected j It for a bee-hive, sealed up the j cracks around the door and pro-J ceeded to manufacture honey there- ! in. Due to the, fart that the meter1 was no longer In active use theyi were not disturbed for some time, and when tho Copco line crew came , to salvage this equipment they met j with some active opposition. j It was finally found necessary to' call in the services of a local bee- j expert who gathered in the colony j of bees, removed the honey nnd , returned the box to the power company. It may now he seen as. a part of a Copco Preferred Stock display in the west window of the) campany's Home Office liuildlng here. An appropriately worded poster In the display states as fol lows; "A Lesson in Thrift from Nature. Even the MUisy Hoe? In vests His Savings in'Crp?o Prop erties.' t I The si red paving program of the ; city administration, because of the nice weather that has been prevail ing for some time past, is making; much progress.
