Then you can entertain a group of friends — hear the wireless telephone programs clearly all over the room — actually dance to wireless music — just like phonograph.

ACME Transformers have been brought to a high degree of efficiency through years of specialization on this one product. They amplify wireless telephone without detracting from the original tone value. Acme transformers are for sale separately and also incorporated in complete Acme Instruments. The ACMEFONE illustrated below, is a complete long range installation. It includes in one handsome cabinet, the tuner for selecting the particular station you want to hear, the equipment for three vacuum tubes to amplify (or magnify) the sounds, and a loud speaker which sends the voice and music clearly all over the room.

The work of installation has been reduced to the minimum. Just put up a simple aerial, insert tubes, hook .on batteries and you are ready to listen.
