OPHE BOSTON GLOBE SATURDAY. APRIL 24, 1026 BRIC-A-BRAC HOMES ED GIANT CONDENSERS USED AT RUGBY WIRELESS STATION RADIO PROGRAM SCHEDULE FOR TODAY (All Stations Are Listed in Eastern Standard Time) foolish dishes on It that will never be used in the wide, wide world. You can hardly get around for fear of hitting the bric-a-brac. I have seen one ef her children punished severely for accidentally knocking off a small heathen god that the family never got any use out of all the time it Was there. You are fairly overwhelmed with these things and the husVand told me with considerable sorrow in his voice that they have cost a small fortune.

-Yet, when they cane to sending their boy to college they had to choose one of the cheaper colleges because their funds were low. Often you go into homes and you wonder what there Is about thefft that seems so oppressive. The answer is usually, too much" fituff--most often, plain Junk. I know of another young woman who, at the time of her marriage, was anxious to have her home "complete when ehe went into it. Her fiance had saved up enough money to furnish a very comfortable home.

The young wife, therefore, bought all sorts of ornaments, vases, bronzes, pictures, until ehe had a "complete home. And now when she sees something really beautiful she cannot purchase it and have the pleasure of It because-she has "no place to pat tt. While it is a splendid and necessary thing to have some piece of so-called bric-a-brac for the eyes to feast upon, yet discrimination Is the better part of savins. It Is wise to be sparing of such things. You never can tell when the money you put in brlo-a-brac (thlrgs you dont really ue) may be the very money that you should put by for the rainy day or for the time when you find something that truly Is beautiful.

It was a wise soul who said, "Save your pennies and the dollars will take care of themselves. And he might have added: "Look to the useful things In the house, and the brlo-a-brac will take care of Itself; for It Is so easy to buy it. (Copyright, 1920.) By SOPHIE IRENE LOEB A man left hie wife the other day, and attributed all his troubles to his "overloaded home. His wife spent all her time and money on buying brlc-e-brao, and he couldn't stand tihe Junk" any longer. The fact Is that they quarreled so much ovieT her purchases that the constant dropping" wore away the stone.

This brings hack a famous case that appeared before the court as to wQiat constituted the term brlc-a-braa It seems that considerable and valuable household effects were left to relatives, and the portion of the will that gave so much trouble directed that all silverware, torlc-a-torac and paintings were to gx to three each to designate his dholoe of articles. They could not agree; hence the suit. The referee in the case, a learned Judge, after reading up every book on the subject, and consulting with experts, decided that bric-a-brac was anything that was not actually in use. I could not help refleotlng, after this decision, that bric-a-brac certainly plays a very large part in the happiness of the home. For example, the referee showed that thousands of dollars were paid for articles that were not In use.

If the average housewife would but Just stop to think how much money she has put into bric-a-brac that is of no use, when many a time she cotflcLbavh used the money to better advantage, it would be a source surprise to her. It is certainly evident that the welfare of many a home rests on this question of Just what is brlc-a-rms, how much ought to be spent for and how much is spent for it at a sacrifice of something that will mean more in the long run.

It took one and one-half years to design and manufacture this bank ot condensers Involving an expenditure of over $150,000. It required 6,000,000 sheets of mica, each sheet carefully tested and gauged. Kach sheet of mica used was about 3-1000 of an Inch thick and if placed one on top of another, would make a stack 1500 feet high, or twice the height of tihe Wool-worth Building.

The noise is probably caused by a poor rheostat arm contact or low A or batteries. A Jonger antenna than you now use migh, give you distant stations, if If i now shorter than 133 feet over all. We do not kuow Just what method you use for controlling regeneration, but possibly ltUoes not give sufficiently fine control to tune in such If It is of the capacity feedback type it should give little or no trouble. Your trouble may be just a question of proper operation. Touching the grid always gives the noise which you mentien, and does not indicate a fault.

Young Dady. Dear Business Girl Bay windows should be treated as one unit, with side drapes at the extreme left and right with one continuous valance over all the windows. Such an arrangement calls for glass curtains, and in addition to the many rayons offered for sale at quite reasonable prices, there are fine laces and meshes, equally deslr-i able. Glass curtains may be hung straight from rod to the window sill or slightly caught and tied back.

The side drapes may reach to lower edge of window frame to mopboard or to the floor, depending on your individual taste. Would you not care for elde drapes as well aa valance of a striped material? In my opinion, pongee calls for a rather substantial material for over-hangings, unless a pongee valance Is used. It Is possible to secure extension rods to fit your bay windows.

Out Where Open Begins! I was along social lines I long regarded Bob White in a favor-atoile light until one Incident with the Importance of an event sent me to a study of his use economically, and a little later a happening that was truly an episode forced me to ponder him biologically. One thing leads to another, and suddenly one fault outshines another in true eminence, and in some confusion of rtind I am confronted with the Information that my little friend is good, bad. Indifferent. Somehow I am glad to arrive at this conclusion and at such an end, for It shows he Is earthly even as you and I. Somehow I never couldi believe my little friend Bob White to be a courageous bird fighting madly for a mate In the lists of the wild.

He always aeemed a quiet, dignified, conservative little body with no rash Impulses and excitable motives. His clear staccato whistle rings with the feelings of sheer liberty, with the snappiness of free winds. To see a covey streaking along an old rail fence and suddenly taking wing is to feel they are shy and gentle birds who know no excitement beyond the fears of the wild and the terrors of the open season, etill waters run deep.

The station is so arranged that either short or long waves for telephony or long distance telegraphy can bn used for communication with the British colonies and the United States.

The capacity of the condensers 6hown is 800 amperes, at 40,000 volts, or about equivalent to 40.000 horsepower of en- ergy, which will give an Idea of the by J. Spencer Smith, president of the American Association of Port Authorities and generally recognized as one of America's foremost port authorities. The question of water power being one of the prominent Issues of the present. It Is thought that Mr Smiths remarks on the subject will attract not only local but national attention. The Navy Night program of stations TVRC and WJZ wial be presented tonight by the United States Naw Band Orchestra.

A special concert for the occasion is being arranged by I-deut Charles Benter, leader of the Navy Band and its orchestra. A debate under the auspices of the Government Club on the subject Resolved. That All Peace Time Compulsory Military Training in Colleges other than Strictly iMalltary Colleges Shall toe Eliminated, will be broadcast by WIEiAF beginning at 8:30 oclock. Mrs George E.

Dotey, the dean of Iboys at DeWltt Clinton High School. TIP-TOP RECEPTION 7000 FT ABOVE SEA Arvada, a ranch town nestling In the Colorado Rockies, communed by radio with far off Persia a few evenings past, according to a letter received by the Whittall Anglo Persian orchestra which broadcasts over the WEAF chain or stations. This group has adapted the magic carpet allegory which is interwoven In its unique concerts. On this famous carpet.

the Anglo Persians embark each week, figuratively carrying their vast audience with them. The novel idea has proved so effective that the much sought atmosphere in radio broadcasting has been achieved. Keen interest in these entertainers has been aroused as a result. Hence, out of the West came a letter from a ranchman, stating that 7009 feet above the sea level, he and his bunkles sat entranced as the soft, strange Oriental melodies cast a spell over the listeners. Outside a raging blizzard whipped by a howling wind made weird discords with the strains from far away Arabia.

As he splendidly put it, "It was an Arabian night inside, but a howling heller outside. We have no rugs up here where air is air, but we felt as though we were reclining on Persian carpets, inhaling from one of those bottle-and-hose pipes. Your Anglo Persian orchestra wins the chaps when It comes to roping and branding the blues." TALK ON HORNS DURING SYMPHONY BROADCAST Tonlglht's Boston Symphonv Orchestra broadcast, direct from Symphonv Ha'l, through stations WEEI, Bostm. WC6H, Portland, and WEAN, Providence, will be featured by a historical talk on two important instruments of the orchest-a, nameilv thq French horns and the tuba. K.

I chief announcer at W15CI, will also tell the radio audience something about the careers of the two leading players of these instruments who are respectively George or.aler and Paul Siaow. The modern French horn ha3 a very Interesting story as it is a direct descendant of the hunting horns used by German princes and kings of France. The actual hunting horns of those early times had qatalves to produce complete scales and subtle shadings. Thus the center of the coil was open and could be slung pver the shoulder and more I eaily handled on horseback. The orchestral French horn of today Is one of the most difficult of wind Instruments, rartiy because of the extreme length of Its tube.

If uncoiled it would be about 12 feet long. The gigantic tuba, the bass instrument of the brass family, also has an Interesting history which E. F. A. will tell tonight.

This evening's concert is another one of the series of Svmphony broadcasts made possible hy Mr W. S. Quinby of the W. S. Quinby Company.

Amplifier for Greene Set Q. 3237 C. S. II. Cambridge I have a single-circuit Greene concert receiver and wish to add another tube.

Kindly tell me how to do this. A. A stage of audio amplification is what 5'ou wlU want. The description of an amplifier for this receiver is out of print but if you watch this column ybu will find a description of another in the near future. Squeals on Distance Q.

3238, J. H. R. Quincy "I have constructed a B. D.

receiver and it nfeutralizes easily, but I cannot get regeneration smoothly. The squeal is absent when tuned to locals, but is present when tuned to distant stations. I have tried grid leaks of values from 1 to 10 megs. A. It would aeem that the squeals you hear are caused by eonie outside source, such as a regenerative set nearby or the heterodyning of two stations.

If you gave the wave lengths of the stations you listen to that would give an idea the possibilities of the latter. You might try disconnecting the antenna at the time you get the squeals and see if this stops ID There Is nothing you can do to remedy squeals outside your set except to find the disturbing set and ask the owner to cooperate with you by not radiating. Excessive regeneration in your own set may be caused by a wrong voltage in the detector circuit, improper filament current to this tube or too many turns on the tickler.

Relative and friend a Invited, Denis home, 29 id in Dear Sisters Can one of you give me an idea of how to decorate my bathroom? It has a natural wood finish. The walls are covered with cloth of a cream or (pale mustard color, which 1 would like to have painted over with some color to harmonize with the woodwork, which I intend- to have done over In Ivory. I have white enamel fixtures to be put up. Do you think gray walls would be all right? My husband thinks blue would be better. I would like very much to have some suggestions, as I am anxious to start on ft eoon.

This is my first attempt at writing but have had lots of help from the department. Annie Daurie. Dear Ole Towele Head and June Girl Will you please help me with my living room? It ia 12x15 feet and on the northwest eide twin windows face north, another window on west. Woodwork is natural finish, paper Is a foliage design in browns aivl tan. Opposite twin windows are double doom, llerei is hung a wall paper bead portiere.

Rug is Oriental design. Also have ecru linen embroidered pillows. crystal set on -Which WEEI comes In fairly well, but WNAC only comes in when 1VEEI is not on and then only faintly. My aerial is 35 feet long e-nd runs back and forth across the celling.

The ground is to the gas pipe, but seems to work all right with a tube set. Is there any way to Increase the volume of this set with batteries? How should I connect a variable condenser to this set?" A. We eee no reason why there should be this difference in the reception of these stations unless your coil is very largo, which might not allow you to tune down to WNAC. Your aerial is so short, though, that this seems Improbable. If there was another aerial close to yours you might be getting energy from it while It was tuned to WEEI and not from WNAC.

Running your wire straight through two rooms would better than back and forth in one. The gas pipe may work as a ground, but a water pipe usually gives better result. A battery will not help your reception with a crystal. If your tuning coll is too large, a variable condenser connected in series with the aerial would shorten the wave length. If the coil has taps and a switch this condensed would help, enabling you to get finer adjustments.

WHth a elider the condenser is not necessary. AUNT HET "Cousin Emmie left tmiay, but I had to give her dried apple pie four days hand-runnin before she took the hint. SEN0RITA i i -i i -7tt GLOBES DAILY PUZZLE Monday. Hartford, Conn, papers please copy. SULLIVAN In Brookline, April 23d.
