Anne Gallery is a very aristocratic
motion-picture child, an Ethel Clayten
is her godmother and Mary Pickford
and Frances Marien her very devoted

Marien and Ethel Clayten started her

Yeu never sec an article about radio
without sem6 reference te "wave
length." We have already, in these lit
tle talks, explained that radio waves go
through the ether In just the same way
that waves from a thrown stone go ever
the surface of n pond. But I find a very
general curiosity among novices as te
just hew these ether waves are pro
duced for radio work and hew It Is pos
sible te design a sending set that will
transmit en any desired wave.
Se, as wn usually de when we want
te explain radio, we'll talk about some
thing else. Today It will be about a
pendulum Just such a pendulum ns
you sce In one of these stately old
grandfather's clocks that stand In the
hallways of our New England homes.
Did you ever watch grandfather
regulate one of these clocks? In me,t
of the old families, it's a rcguinr Sun
day morning duty, directly after the
beans and brown bread have been dis
posed of.
lie compares it -te his big nickel
watch which he set at the Jeweler's
window In town en Saturday night and,
if the clock has lest during the week,
he adjusts a little screw which moves
the weight n little further up the pen
dulum or, If it has gained, he lowers
the weight.
A pendulum of any definite length hn
a definite time period in which it com
pletes one vibration that is. in which
it swings all the way ever in one di
rection and all the way back. Scientists
have what they call n "seconds pen
dulum" thnt Is they have figured out
for different places the exact length 11
pendulum must be te tnke precisely one
second te vibrate ever and back.
In the Bureau of Standards at
Washington is the official lime measure
of the United Stntes. Jt is a half-second
pendulum and it will nlwa.ts take
just a half second te vibrate In Wash
ington, though its period of vibration
will vary in ether parts of the world,
always being the same for any one
place. And the peculinr part of it Is
that, inhtend of being just half as long
as the seconds pendulum, it is only one
fourth as long. In scientific language,
the length of a pendulum varies net as
the time docs but as the "square" of
the time. If, ni In this case, the time
of one is two times the time of the
ether, the length will differ net by two
times but as twice two times, or four.
Se you can see that, with the length
of the seconds pendulum known, w can
make a pendulum that will vibrate
every quarter second or third of n sec
ond or In any division of time we want.
It becomes a simple mathematical equa
tion. Radie waves vibrate up nnd down
In the ether much as a pendulum vi
brates bnck nnd forth In the air.
Heek up a cell and a condenser nnd
you have a radio pendulum. It is ready
te start vibrating any time you give
it a push. Just as you start the pen
dulum by lifting the weight nnd let
ting it go, se you can start this pen
dulum by pushing an electric: Impulse
In it. That Impulse will swing through
the circuit in one direction, turn and
swing back, then ferwnrd again nnd se
en until the resistance makes it die
down just ns the resistance of the air
makes the pendulum Mop.
The different Uncw of the mII have
nn effect upon each ether and upon tbc
whole circuit which wc call "Induc
tance." Roughly, we may consider this
te correspond te the length of the pen
dulum. The condenser has the ability te store
up electrical energy and release It sud
denly again when wanted. We can con
sider this te correspond te the force of
gravity en the pendulum.
As I have already said. th standard
pendulum will net vibrate in exactly
half a f-crend In some places ether than
Washington. This Is because the force
of gravity is different in places which
are different distances from the center
of the earth, which Is the center of our
gravity. The pendulum will change its
period et vibration when you tnke it
te the top of a high mountain because
ou have changed the influence which
gravity has upon it.
He , 011 can change the period of vi
brntmn of our radio circuit by chang
ing the amount of electric energy stored
up In the condenser what we cnll the
"capacity." We have instruments
which we call "variable condensers"
which, by the turning of 11 knob, change
this capacity te any extent we wnnt.
Wp knew we can change the period
of vibration of the pendulum by length
ening the string. Se we can change the
time of vibration of our radio pendulum
bv lengthening the cell. AVc have means
of changing this se ns te Include mere
or fewer turns of the wire in the cir
cuit and thus niter the time it takes
for the electric energy te make, one
t-wlng once through the circuit and
back.
When wc hnve nn electrical circuit
Iik this, we call it an oscillating cir
cuit but oscillating simply means vi
brating. In the Illustration, you will
see mere instruments than the coil and
the condenser, but these two are really
the oscillating circuit. The switch and
dry cell and buzzer arc put in simply
te cause the ele ctrlcal push that starts
our radio pendulum vibrating and the
phones ere Included just te give us
a means of hearing the result, because
yen can't &ec radio vihratiens.
Heek up a circuit like this some day
and lltcn while you ary the number
of turns en the cell and the knob of the
condenser.
