a number of used automobiles.
They faced the street and a. sign in
front or them said. "Cars For Sale."
An elderly woman watched the
cars from the window or her cot-
tags ‘and interviewed prospective
buyers. If there seemed to be an
opporfiunity to sell a. car sheusuafly
turned the inquire: over to her son.
Who worked as a mechanic in ’a
near-by garage. They owned this
extra lot and the boy had conceived
the idea of using the space to ex—
hibit used cars. In his work in the
garage, be. came upon opportunities
both for buying and selling cars, and
he knew that his mother «would
rather enjcry feeling that she were
helping with the family income.
She received a hall of his commis-

ON a. vacant lot. adjoining a mod-

‘ slon on each car and it pleased her.

F or several days she had been ob—
serving a pretty young woman who
"walked slowly along the street view—
ing. from a distance, the row of
cars. She seemed timid. uncertain.
and yet it; was evident'that she was
contemplating the purchase
car. . .

At last she stopped before a pert
little sedan that ha taken up its
abode in the mart within twenty—
i’our‘ hours. The girl looked ‘at it
almost wistfuily. She Walked all
around it, being careful to keep her

cars that flanked it on either side.

The elderly woman raised 'the
window of her’bedroom where she
was mending curtains.

“Are you interested'in that car,
perhaps?" asked she. ,

The young girl was startled. Thor. -

she lookod Up at the face in the
window. "Wh:c~——yes.
one from whom I might get informa-
tion 2‘"

"W'alt just a minute.” said the
woman. '

"I‘m sorry to get you down."
apologized the girl; "but I am trying
to find out if 1 can‘aflord to buy a
car.”

The older woman thought she had
never. seen anything so fresh and
pretty as this young girl.

"This little car seems to be in good
shape and it is very cheap." she be-
an opening the door and letting
her young visitor see the inside. "My
son tells me it has not been badly
used, but that: the owner wants to
get rid of lt {or the winter and buy
a larger car In the spring."

The young girl tapped inside.
”May I start the motor?" she asked.

"Certainly." .

“Why not get ill—8:16 take a turn
with .me. I 114k".I the looks of the on:
and I'm rather lteen'on first ampear—
ances. You trust my driving?"

The two started down the countrtv
Street and just as they passed ".v}
the garage a. young man steppe-oi

out. He stared rather rudely at the '

lovely companion of his mother.
"That it my son." said tho elder
Woman, proudly.

A

Her companion was silent to;- .
moment. Then. impulsively, she
turned to speak

"It‘s because of the selfishness o:
my mother‘s son that Ilse! that 1
must make an effortto‘buy a car
though I can hardly 8.110111 it. You
don’t. mind ii I tell you?"

and the girl went on.

"My mother sews all day to: g

1E hook-up using; no high-

v<.v‘.tage or "B" battery which

appeared coma time ago in
England under the name of the
“Unldyne” has now been described
in the United States as. the "8010-
dyne." the word unldrne jiavlng
been already used here for another
and different hook-up.

This invention is the work of
blessrs. Dowding and Rogers of the
technical staff of the British radio
weekly Popular VVlrelesg. It, was
noted in this column at the. time
or its appearance in England and
the Amer-lean edition of it
essentially different.

The vital thing about it, is the
use of a vacuum tube that includes
{our electrodes instead of the usual
three. The extra. electrode is u. sec-
ond grid. placed very close to the
filament.

h—-——

In the ordinary vacuum tube the

electrons given off iron: the bot'

filament are drawn over to the
plate by the high voltage which the
"B" battery supplies to the plate.
In the four—electrode tube used in
the aolodyne this is avoided by the
nearneos at the extra, grid to the
filament.

Electric attraction is greater with
greater charge. It is also greater
with lessened distance. And so the
extra. grid in the aolodyne, although
it has available to it only the low
voltage or the usual “A" or filament
battery, is so near to the filament
that it attracts the electrons almost
as strongly as does the high—voltage
plate in the ordinary tube.

These electrons pass through the
extra grid and are “shot at” the
plate that lies beyond. Thus they
operate the tube much an in ordinary
tubes.

 

When this principle
trounced in England great claims
were made both for its novelty and
its importance. As concerns nov-
elty. these claims certainly were not
justified. There is nothing new
about this principle of an extra grid
close to the filament. Tubes on this
principle have been made for years
and many engineers have used them
without high-voltage batteries.

It is to the credit of Aznerican
radio journalism that the Radio
News which owns the publication
rights of the invention in America,
achmwledges frankly .that the m-

3 But. says the Editor of that maga-
:zine. the circuits worked out by Mr.
lDowdlng and Mr. Rogers are well
:worth test and may prove to be the
lbeginning of an important develop-
lmem. With that statement every

iAmei-ican radio engineer will agree.

 

. The solodyne is only one of I
lnumber of devioc: propoeed lately
lfor the purpose of getting rid, par-
’tlally or completely, of the batteries
lthat good radio cam now have to
ghave. This problem will be solved
gnome day.
But. it has not. been solved yet.
For the present. the best policy in.
§to accept the. battery as a. necessary
evil.

However. the solodyne hook-ups
are well worth trying for expel-L
menters who have the skill and time.

THE RADlO PRIMER
Ono Dally Fact for Listeners

 

Dry Batteries work by means at
a. chemical reaction. This reaction
is the eating away of. zinc by a solu-
Lion of sad-maniac.

The dry batteries is not really
dry inside. It contains a. wet solu-
tion. just as a "wet" cell does At
the center or each dry cell - (or
somewhere inside it) there is a: rod
of carbon. This in one of the term-
inals. At the outside of the cell.
usually as the inmost of the con-
talner, there is a. sheet. of zinc.

In between these two is sawdust
or tuller's earth or some similar por—
ous material and this is soaked tun

: the solution or cal-ammonia in
water.

The sal-mnmonlac solution attacks
the zinc and dissolves it. That
makes electricitY. Just as when an
burns up the substance 0! coal and
produces heat and light.‘ The elec-
tricity flows out through the wires

tubes or does whatever 9135' ya“
want it to do.

When the zlncds all used up or
when the sol-ammoniac somuon has
become so gorged with dissolved
zinc that it can hold no more. then
the dry cell is played nut and you
must get a new one. Also, the cell
will go bad if you ‘punCh a. hole in it.
