The nurse was a quiet. soft little

facing the fact. "Who is it that you

tween radio and earthquakes
is the contention of 8. Paris
scientist and writer, Monsieur
Robert Lenier. On every recent
occasion. he says. when there was
a heavy earthquake shock in any
part of the world. the shock was
accompanied by an unusual
amount of static. It is proposed
that records be kept hereafter or
heavy static bat-ages so that they
may be compared with the records
of earthquakes on the scientists’
THAT there is some relatiOn be-
= instruments.
We have heard a great deal in
recent years about the vast stores
of useful power supposed to be
resident inside the atoms of mat-
ter. “As soon,” said the scien.
tists, “as we learn how to get this
power out men will not have to
work any more. " I have said
things like that myself.
But it seems we were all wrong.
Now comes Sir Ernest Rutherford.
probably the world’s greatest au-
thority on the atom. and says that
there probably is no recoverable
power at. all inside most of the
kinds of atoms. Only the atoms
of radium and other radioactive
elements are likely. he says, to
contain any Quantity of power.
So there goes our dream of get-
ting some variety of trained atoms
to run our radio sets instead of
batteries.
In this same instrument—it

lug Foundation, New York
Ernest has some interesting ideas
about what was true on earth a
few millions of years ago. There
used to be, he suggests, a vast
number of atoms like radium;
itoms that give out energy all the

In the course of time all these

atoms have given up all their»
energy and disappeared. Radium
and itsrradioactive follows are so
,scarce . because .they, too, are
mostly gone. What radium we
have is the pitiful surviving rem-
nant of a once plentiful and pow-
teri'ul atomic host.
" The earth must have been an
active place to? live in in those
days. With most of atoms of its
mass in the course of blowing up
as the radium atoms still do; with
powerful rays of all kinds shoot-
ing in all directiofi through :the
atmosphere; with tremendous elec~
tric charges and incomprehensibly
violent radio “3703- saturating
everything, the earth could not
have been a very pleasant place.
It is a good thing for men that

other elements like it'vare left to

THE RADIO Pm
One Daily Fact. for Listeners
The Prevention of Static is
something that has never been ac-
complished with any real success,
although many of the very best
radio engineers in the world have
worked on the problem.
Since static is due, in large part
at least, to electric discharges in
the atmosphere. we cannot hope to
stop it at its source. No one
dreams of controlling or prevent-
ing a lightning flash that may have
a potential of ten or twelve mil-
lion volts. Our only resource,
then, is to try to make a radio re-
ceiver that will not pick up any of
the static.
This, too. has proved to be prac-
tically impossible. The chief way
that we have for keeping out all
the electric impulses that we do
not want in a radio set is to tune
the set very accurately to the
wavelength of the impulses that
we do want. Then other wave-
lengths Will not get in.
But this does no good for the
static problem. The radio waves
sentgout by a lightning flash con-
tain all wavelengths. You may
keep some or them out, but there
will be one that is just the same
as the wavelength that you are
trying to receive. That one will
get in and bother you, no matter
what you do.
You can save some of the bother
with static by using a. short an-
tenna or a. loop.
less signal strength. This may be
worth doing in the summer when
the static is especially bad. but no
one calls it a real solution of the
static problem.
