'Several yearn ago Thomas Edl
Hon, while experlmenUntf with one
of lila newly Invented electric
l.'ini'H, diHeoverd that by placing a
umull piece of sheet metal In the
Klobc an electric current would
pasa from tho fllmament to "the
other piece of metul In the globe.
These rIoIicb, called valveH, be
en tine they allowed current to paw
tb rough them In only one direction
were tried ntt detectors of . radio
waves, but were found to be, Ineffi
cient.,. Leo UeForest, however, at
about 'hl time Invented a tube
with a third element, which was
destined to revolutionize rudio.
A fourth element has been udded
within the last few years. The
fourth element, also a screen. Is
uwed for greater amplification.
J. A. Moyer and J. l' Worst el
bavo written a book on these later
developments of radio entitled
"Kadlo Heeeivlnt? Tuhes." Muny
book.H have been written about
radio, for both laymen and techni
cal experts, but none Is so precise,
yet so clear and simple, as this
one.
In order to understand things
which take place -in a tube one
must understand tho fundamental
electrical principles and properties
of solenoids, condensers, unij resis
tances. ' ' 4
' When you have' read and studied
this book,. you will he ablo to J.ake
tho tubes from your receiving set
und analyze them. You will know
what kind of tube Is best for each
tube socket In your set.
'. Quite often you have wondered
why your set would not work so
well as the set of one of your
friends. It might be the kind of
tubes. The best way to find out
Is to read an authority on the sub
ject ,
Another use of radio tubes taken
lp by the authors, is the. commer
cial. ; Radio tubes are used to am
plify publlo. addresses. They are
used on long distance telephony,
Tlie last musical Instrument to bo
invented employs them, and they
are .used to control boats, airplanes,
torpedoes, and robots.
This book Is the first of a series
by the, authors. A review of the

In "Destiny's Bay," Donn Byrne,
Jho last of tho traditional Irish
froveltsts, takes his readers Into a
place of enchantment. Hero he
reveals tho souls as well as tho

people. In words that glow and
sparkle ho brings out the tradi

Botween the covers there are nine
tulos deuling with lovo and com
edy, romance and tragedy.
-Destiny's Hay, a remote plnuo on
tho north coast of Ireland, forms
the setting for these lovely tales.

Its white bog flowers, to the north
Atlantic, cverchanglng.

A baby should always bo fed, in

Forty yoars ago In the Oliluhoma

Whithorn . woman whose husbar.
was unbusinesslike, took the fami

Blio built up an impressive news
paper publishing business, and
later became a member of congress.

situation turns Into a glowing suc

they have not In allure, as Miss
Korbor rfolntedly says of Sabra.
Their stories make satisfying reud

details; shocking coincidences;
nlco love scenos; dramatic death
scones; and, confidently put, a
great deal of the local color of lite
