A method for applying the super-regenerative circuit to a Grebe CR-5 receiver is illustrated and described. As most single-circuit receivers which operate over a range of from 150 to 3000 meters are patterned after the CR-5, this application is an important one. From the view-point of the listener-in, it is doubtful that any more comprehensive group of books can be had than those which comprise THE EASY COURSE IN HOME RADIO; Morri son, Kaempffert, Hogan, Morecroft, Ould, Yales, and Boucher on; 6 small, paper-covered vols., illustrated, price, $3.00. The course has been prepared by such authorities as Abby Morrison, Instructor in Radio, Y.W.C.A., Waldemar Kaempffert, John V. L. Hogan, Prof. J. H. Morecroft, R. S. Ould, R. F. Yates, and Pierre Boucheron, and MajorGeneral George O. Squier is Editor-in-Chief. The course covers all phases of radio from simple electricity to the super-regenerative circuit and is particularly well illustrated with diagrams, sketches, and photos. Do You Want Broadcasting? // so, it is highly important for you to sit right down and write a letter to your Senator and Congressmen, demanding that they exert every effort to have the White Radio Bill passed at the next session of Congress. If this is not done, the hands of the Department of Commerce will remain tied and no relief can be obtained from a rapidly increasing bedlam in the ether. There are some objections to the bill — but the good overbalances the bad in it, and it is our only hope before 1924. Exhort your representatives to have the bill passed — amended, if possible — but passed, whether amended or not. The greatest crisis in radio history is at hand — you can help to make radio of value to every man. A meeting of representatives of the radio press of the United States is being called to join in forming a definite policy to place before you. A comprehensive survey of the situation, written by Paul F. Godley, will appear in the January issue of RADIO BROADCAST. But do not wait a minute — write a letter now demanding that the bill receive the attention it deserves and follow it next month with concrete suggestions drawn up by those who, with you, are most vitally interested in better radio, that is, the radio press. — THE EDITOR. During National Radio Week Which will extend from December 23rd to 30th inclusive, special broadcasting programmes are to be sent out from stations throughout the country. New York is holding a great radio show at Grand Central Palace, where practically all types of apparatus and parts made in this country will be on exhibition. The music of prominent violinists and singers at the exposition will be sent by land line to various broadcasting stations for transmission throughout the East and the Middle West. You should make every effort to have your receiver working like a Swiss watch during Radio Week, for you and your friends will want to listen-in on the special programmes that will fill the air. What kind of a show are you going to put on in your own home town? The slogan for National Radio Week is the slogan that appears on our front cover: "THIS is A RADIO CHRISTMAS"
