...like the three minute egg, another tribute by the world to the man in a hurry. The bustle and clatter of energy lavishly expended sets up a sympathetic vibration in every true American heart. Solicitous brains have spun for the busy man to give him a telephone and radio, a motor car and airplane, ready-to-wear clothes, and a meal reduced to seconds in a catch-as-catch-can restaurant...
...peace, but unhindered activity. He who runs may both read and think, and pick up his ideas on route. His literature he reads in reviews, he listens to the essences of the opera from the Victoria, and he hears the foreign lecturer through the headpiece of his radio while he dictates a purchase order. A file for your fly, he says, that "sate upon the axie-tree of the chariol wheel, and said, "What a dust do I raise...
...Brown '23 was consistently effective and self-effacing--the only actor in the cast. Rumor hath it that he is a subject of English 47 and therefore a ringer; if it is so, let there be the clanging of more ringers like him. W. N. Gates, as a radio fan, did his job, and the bell boys did theirs, and the unsung heroes of the chorus, m. and f., did theirs. For the most part the musical numbers bearing the symbols of Salinger '23, and Alger '22 (who is evidently out of course, of course) were the most coherent...
...luncheon in the Bell System laboratories, Sir Joseph saw in operation many applications of his fundamental theories and inventions. Among these was a water-cooled copper vacuum tube, devised by W. G. Housekeeper, with 40 times the capacity of the present glass-enclosed tube used in long-distance radio. This may shortly be installed on all American battleships. Professor Thomson's chief contribution to science is the proof (in 1897) that the rays given off from the cathode, or negative electrode, within a vacuum tube are streams of minute bodies of negative electricity, called by him "corpuscles," but later...
...whole object of radio frequency amplification is to amplify the energy before it gets to the detector," declared Mr. E. B. Dallin in a lecture last night to the Wireless Club at the Cruft High Tension Laboratory. He pointed out that this was essential in securing the maximum of sound without sacrificing clearness. He then diagrammed the various methods of setting up a set by which one can increase the intensity of sound without being troubled by excessive sputtering from the instruments. Mr. Dallin discovered in particular the relative disadvantages of the regenerative, crystal, and reflex receiving outfits, favoring...
