PROSPECTUS
UR special field : The Middle West and the West. This includes the "Chicago Territory" Avhich is unquestionably the richest agricultural, commercial, financial and industrial region in the world. Radiophones according to late figures published through the Associated Press, are being used in four States as follows : Iowa, 23,000 ; Missouri, 25,000; Nebraska, 22,000; Kansas, 20,000; Wisconsin, 1,500 stations, increasing at the rate of 5 a day. Cleveland alone has 15,000 amateur and professional radio enthusiasts; St. Louis, 2,200; Dallas, 263; Cincinnati, 500; Indianapolis, 1,000; ]Milwaukee, 1,000. Schools and colleges in all states are teaching radio, farmers all over the INIiddle West are installing radio sets; clubs are being organized everywhere.
Chicago — Radio operatives are growing in number so rapidly that their number could only be approximateh^ estimated. Thousands of boys are studying practical radio science in the public schools. Dealers and manufacturers are unable to supply tlie demand for equipment.
Our special circulation: Boy begimiers particularly, and amateurs generally. Radio Age will write Radio so that boys can understand it. There will be technical ai'ticles for the advanced students of Radio but the departments for beginners will not be written OVER THE READERS' HEADS. Numerous illustrations will aid amateurs in constructing HOME RADIO SETS. Getting a printed message across is simply one form of SALESMANSHIP and, it is a highly specialized line. Radio Age knows its market and knows how to supply it.
Our sj^ecial departments: In addition to illustrated articles showing beginners how to launch out into the ether waves there will be original articles written by boj^s telling what they have done in Radio and how. There will be a Questions And Answers department, carefully handled; Radio Clubs will have attention with liberal use of names of individuals and photographs ; there will be a department for Trade News, a Radio Readers' Exchange, for letters of interest from our readers. These features will be supplemented by articles presenting facts about the growth of radio in popularity, about the constantly increasing list of practical uses for radio, about the importance of radio in its relation to society generally. Radio Age will have no narrowed view of its subject.
It is the hour of Radio. We offer —
