HE 4 8C400L 1 STUDY SPORTS | JUNIOR "Well, then, how about a circus yarty?' sald Peggy. "Circus party--what would. that be?' inquired Peggy's cousin Harry. "How could our club give a circus party ?™ y "Well, all winter you and the other members have been taking lessons fn tumbling and gym stunts from Cap- tain Low, haven't you?' rrr i ./) Ay Harry nodded. "But what of that; I don't get the idea. "Just this: The club wants to make fome money for its summer camping outfit. Put on a circus, with your tumbling team as the main attraction, and charge 'admission. I'm sure Margie and Edna and all the girls will help me to advertise the circus for you. Hold the show in the evening, and we can use our big barn.' "Great!" exclaimed Harry. "I see now. And, say, we can put on a reg- ular circus, can't we? We can have side shows and everything. Iu tell you what. There are eight fellows on ~ the tumbling team. Each of us cah dress up in a clown suit and go through all the stunts. Then old Bkeesixs--he's that new fat kid we took in last week--we can dress him ap in some old dresses and put 'a lot of pillows around him and one of mother's old hats, and he can be the fat lady. We can rig up a side show tent to keep him in." ""You ought to have a bearded lady, too. rill tell you: We'll unravel a Riece of rope and make a set of whisk- ets and one of the boys can put them With a dress and be the bearded lady. How's that?' "Just the thing. Now then, we ought to plan a program, I think," said Harry. "Suppose the show starts at 7:30 in the evening. We'll have the barn all fixed up with lights and Arn co there'll be plenty of seats. We can use boxes If we can't get enough chairs. : "From 7:30 to 8 o'clock the side shows will be open. There'll be Bkeesix, the Fat Lady, and the Beard. ed Lady----we can later on--and then we can have Mysto, the Fortune Teller. He can be one of the fellows dressed up lke a Hindoo, and he can have a get of fortunes written out on paper and everybody who comes in to see him gets one. That'll be about all the side shows we can accommodate in the barn. We can use the oid stalls for tents, and hang pleces of old car- pet across the fronts, "You could have a pink lemonade stand, too, don't you think? suggest ed Peggy, 'and a hol dog counter, too. I could run the lemonade stand, and I know positively that Bertha and Bdna would just love to take care of the other for you." "Great 1dea. And then we can have & wild west show. While part of the team is doing tricks, the other part can go off and change to Indian and Cowboy costumes, and the other mem- bers who aren't on the team can al- ready be dressed up. Then, when the team gets through, we can gO on and bold up a stage coach, or something. This ought to be a real party, don't you think?

One of the advantages of the construction is the eat reduction of energy losses so common in shellac, wood, varnish and large masses of other dielec- tric materials. It is claimed that the irreducible minimum of dis- tributed capacity is had with the "wavy" wound coils of stator and rotor and the method of connect- ing those coils together, A very small clearance between the rotor and stator allows a large wave length range, from about 170 to 360 meters, without other induc- tance in a grid circuit, and from about 170 to 650 in a plate cir- cuit. The range is obtained ale most entirely by inductance va- riation rather than dy a high pro- portion of distributed capacity to. the inductance. The variometer may be used for mounting inside a cabinet set. In this case the shaft 1s allowed to protrude through the panel so that the knob and dial are on the front.
