POLITICAL
SPRAY

By Observer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Election two day. off_ Thomas
Robins or Jeremiah Donovan for
mayor? The victor? Who can tell?

0 C 0

Friends of former Mayor Donovan
are at. loss somewhat to account. for
his changed attitude in the matter
of actively campaigning for all ctlon.
Donovan's friends freely pry-lictcd
that when he was nominated for
for mayor that he would conduct a.
"silent" campaign: that he would
not deliver any public addresses. And
yct he has addressed two meetings;
our: in Rowuyton and the other in
the Third Ward. Possibly it is Just
the love of the "game" that has
changed his attitude.

0 C O

Confidence“ is gained through ex—
perience. This was soon and ooservcd
by those who nttuided the Republi-
can rally at Rowsyton \Vedncsda;
eveninx. Councilman Thomas Robins.
republican nominee for mayor. is not
on orator. as he himself says. When
he made his acceptance speech on
the pic-ht of the Republican conven-
tion. he locked. it appeared. confl-
dcnco in his ability to talk on his
fcct to an audience. At the Howar-
ton rally. howcvcr. Mr. Robins ap-
peared in good form. delivering his
arguments in n clean-cut. simple
manner which made lhcm vastly un-
derstood and comprchendcd. It could
be: seen that he had gained in confl-
dcncc in lifmsclf.

Why do spcnkers campaiznlng in
the opcn prefer to speak from an
automobile truck rather than from
a touring automobile? It is a rare
occasion. indeed. when a. political
candidate will talk to a gathering
from a luxurious car. Perhaps it is
the physiology of the thing. The can-
didate feels he will be considered
and classed as a. member of the mid-
dle or laboring class if he talks from
the lowly truck rather than a tour-
ing car: the latter machine giving
the impression of wealth and case.
an impression hard to erase and
which we politici‘ fears. hurt.- the
party he represents. ,

_ o c c 4

It is the referendum vote on the
proposed bond issue of 9250.000 for
new schools which is attracting
more interest than the result of the
coming city election. It has stirred
11p more real activity than has been
shown by either political party. And
yet. let us be thankful the bond is-
sue has been kept free and clean of
politics. It is a. non-partisan issue:
an issue in which every men and
woman in Horwulk is interested. it.
is a. issue which has the welfare of
the school child at heart and in War-
thy of the deepest and slucercs
thought. Vote "yes”.

While Norwnlk is'holding ltscity
election Monday. other surrounding
nearby towns will be holding a. sim-
ilar'elcction. Wilton. Dnrlen._ New
Canaan. Westport and other places
will elect new town officers. And in
these elections there will be shown
just as much enthusgssm if not more
than is being shown here. And the
results of the clctlons will b eager-
ly scanned us an indication of the
"way the wind is blowing" in the
national election which is no. so
many months away.

.XT ls natural for anyone to want
their set to work as easily sud sim-
ply xx possible. I prefer my three
circuit spider/ web set. to sny I
him ever used but even at that, I
have rigged it up to work simple
by converting it to n single circull
regenerative not by connecting the
primary and secohdary coils 1n
ipnrxllel and having a single knife
switch in both lends as shown in
the drswlng.

-To shift from the select thric

: circuit set. all that is necessary to
do is‘ tarthro‘w both switches down
sud txkc out the primary coll. You
csn readily see it is the Standard
single circuit set. with 3 variable
condenser in series sud one in
shunt to the c'oil. Using these two

, condensers. tuning is fairly sharp
'nud fairly good work can be done
through moderate interference.

When interfe once gets so that it
annoys you merely plug in your
primary coll again and open both
switches. You then have the three

‘ circuit spider web or honeycomb
coil set.

It is much esslcr to find station:
when using this sctras a. single cir-
cuit. and for thisreason it will
appeal to beginners in radio or
those who do not care to have to
turn so runnyknobs and dials.

If you are using honeycomb coils
or other: that may be plugged in,
you can cover quite a band of wave
lengths by using the primary coil
in place of the secondary. either by
taking out the secondary and leav-
ing the primary in or by putting
the primary in the secondary plugs.

’If you haven't larger coils and
desire to tune higher. fixed con-
densers may be connected across
the variable condensers with good

results.

In the set I have in mind the
primary coil has 20 turns. the see
oudsry 30 turns and the tickler 40
turns. The two variable condens-
ers are of the balanced 26 plate
type (13 on each side). Fixed cou-
deusers of .0005 are used to shunt
across them. KDKA on 326 meters
is received using the primary coil
with the series condenser at 98 and
the shunt condenser st 64. the fixed
condensers not being used. 011 360

instead of using larger values of
condensers it would be better to
use larger coils for the various
wavelengths from 360 to 548. und '
use smaller variable condensers. .

Precedents are not invariably fol-
lowed. Had all that great company
of Britishers who have visited out
shores and written books of opinions
concerning our habits, manners and
ways of thought taken as a. model for
their frank observations the account
by their fellow countryman. Thomas
Twining. written about 1797. they
would have softened some of their
most unpleasant comments and. pos-
sibly. prevented a lot of hard feeling.
“Write: the Hartford Courant.

Twining went to India. at the age
of’ 15 in 1792. After two years the
state of his health necessitated I
visit to Europe. He ’dicided to come
by Way of America. and embarked
from Santiporc with a Bengal cow.

goat. several oil paintings and many
other curloslg'cs. ‘He sailed on the
American ship India. and after a.
voyage of some five months. which
he describes in considerable detail.
he stepped ashore at Philadelphia
April 7. 1796.

His letters of introduction were to
prominent people and he was well
received and shortly installed him-
self at the leading hotel. the London
Tavern. This he found so deficient
in comfort on: be sallicd forth in
search of better quarters. He asked
a. stranger where the members of
Congress put up when they arrived
from the different states and learned
that they lived together on Fourth
street at a boarding house conducted
by a. Frenchman named Francis and
his American wife. He discovered
that. the house was full. but Mrs.

' Francis reminded her husband that

there was one small room at the top
of the house which could be occu-
pied by Mr. Twining for a day or two
when a. room next to that. of the
vice-president of the United Flutes
would be “disengaged. " This pleased
the Englishman and he immediate-
ly moved to the little room and
later to the more Commodious quara-
ters next to those of Mr. Adams. He
considered himself fortunate in be-
ing thus eSablished in the most re-
spectable. society' of the [‘nited
States. He had his first taste of
buckwheat cakes‘the next morning.
He found them’ superior to the Eng-
lish crumpet or muffin and “a most
esteemed article for an American
breakfast.” There is no mention of
pie.

Hecnjoved dining with the ~nem-
born of Congress. He was especially
delighted With the society of the
vice-president who was superior to
oil sense of superiority. “Knowing."

than that of listening to. the conver-
cation of great and virtuous meh.‘
he missed no meals or other oppor.
tunities to be with 'the congressman.

- Itrmust be remembered that at this

time the young man had not at-
tained to his majority. yet he writes
with a. seriousness and restraint that
one would expect to find in the auto-
biography of s. wise old gentleman
of 70.

He 'vlsited both houses of Con
gross and was again impressed with
the flue appearance and ability of
the members. By April 1'2 he writes
that. he was now on cosy terms with
the members ofCongr-eu. He liked
the buckwheat cakes more than
ever. He spent an evening at the
E ish‘ charge d'ai'fslrs where a
mist-go reception was in progress. The

have done the Immior part of the
talking. Young Twining did not

cal mountebank before man‘y of the
principal persons of the American
metropolis.

He visited Baltimore and was
charmed with the city. He dined
at the home or . prominent citizen
and found no difference whatever
between an American an an Eng-
lish fireside. He met the grand-
daughter of Mrs. “Washington. this
President's lady. 'and was much
pleased with her.

He met many more people
and appeared to be pleased With “-3":
with them all. He was aston-\
ished to hear of the great
prevalence among the Virginians of
the habit of gouging out each other’l
eyes when they quarreled. One
obiiging Virginian demonstrated on
him how this feat. was accomplished.
He discovered that the Virginians
were extremely fond of cock-fighto.
ing and. other cruel sports. and that
their passion for gaming was with-
out. restraint.

He visited “'ashington and found'
it mostly a. wilderness. but, he no“
as the greatest cities have a. similar

man. Armed with a. flattering letter
of introduction to the President he
returned to Philadelphia. On the.
way he Was surprised to discover'
that ~Maryland pigs were fed on'

0n the 13th of May he called on~
General \Yashingtou. He described
in considerable detail the unpreten-
tious house where the President
lived. He first met. Mrs. Washington.
"a. middle sized lady. rather stem."
He considered her manner extreme- \
l_\ kind and unaffected. He sat on
the so“ .a. by her side and described
his visit to “'ashinglou. The Presi—
dent came in and never. writes Mn;

than at that moment when he Ila"?
