"PASSING BY" "The artists and Mr. Pim, with hearts full of love, will pass by. Let the curtain fall; the Comedy is over."Mr. Dion Boucicault, through a prolonged ovation which rattled 2BL's loud speaker for nearly three minutes, thus spoke his farewell to acting in Australia. "You have given me some wonderful memories; and I thank you from the bottom of my heart," said Irene Vanbrugh. "Good night."

The direc- tors of Radio Broadcasting, Limited, which controls this service, were determined at the outset to give listeners, not a hotch-potch of broadcasting, but superior programmes of superior music. In thisithas gradually succeeded and from a doyen requests nightly the station has received as many as 100 in one evening. On Sundays the calls are especially heavy, which is evidence that many persons prefer good music to church services. In addition to 'phone calls, letters are flowing in express- ing the thanks of the listeners, and adding congratulations on the transmission and the character of the programmes. Mr. L. S. Beckett, the well-known Sydney dentist, wrote to 2UW last week that every evening when he and his party go to the tennis courts nearby his residence in Raglan Street, Mosman, he takes his portable three - valveset, and receivesatexcellentloud speaker strength the musical programme till closing down time."Thus," added Mr. Bec- kett, "we enjoy your delightful music out in the open while the tennis is going on.Carry on the good work, I am sure there must be thousands of listeners who prefer your musical programmes toother stations.

The Screen -grid Short Wave Converter Calls for RADIOKES Components Make up this excellent Adaptor, and hear the World'3 Short-wave Broadcasts through your favorite receiver. The Heart of this converter is the RADIOKES SCREEN -GRID SHORT-WAVE TUNER KIT, which is truly a masterpiece of coil kit construction. The mounting base accommodates the six -pin coil mounts, which fit into sockets with a positive contact and a delightful "velvety" action, the result ofa well -designed, accurate, silver spring system. This Kit comprises four interchangeable tuners and a mounting base designed to cover the wavelength range as specified in accompanying constructional article, each tuner being of small diameter and precisely wound on a rugged skeleton of genuine Bak,ite. The Coils are designed and constructed so as toexhibit the lowest possible H.F. losses-an important feature, as skeleton construction practically eliminates dielectric losses which are usually present in S.W. Coils, wound on solid tubing. The entire Kit is beautifully finished, and has plainly designated screw -terminals, which in conjunction with horizontal mounting, makes for easy assembly and wiring inset, and the complete Kit sells for the moderate price of 72.6.

THE RADIOKES STANDARD SHORT-WAVE TUNER KIT 56 IIleads the field, and is the finest Kit for use with standard Triode Tubes, and for amateur work.This Kit has been adop ted as standard throughout the length and breadth of Austral- asia, and isstill adding many enthusiastic fans to its long listof admirers. It covers a range of 15 to 130 metres, using three interch angeable induction units, with a mounting base, which carries an adjustable antenna coupling coil, and 55is the charge for this complete kit.

-A CREATION FROM PHILIPS LABORATORIES Not of the present, but distinctly of to -morrow is the Philips Audio Trans- former.Its features are as varied as they are unique. (1)A pure silver primary-non-corrosive. (2)A nickel secondary. (3)A special alloy core-impossible to saturate even when using the largest of Power Valves. (4)Compact-efficiently compact. (5)Completely shielded. (6)Transforms ALL frequenciesequally from 200 to 10,000 cycles. This transformer, used with the correct "Minniwatts" (a Power Tube for the last stage, of course), and a Philips Loudspeaker, will give you music that lives again in all its glory. 27/6

Iftv Pi POWER VALVE YES, the last stage is the place for a Philips Power Valve-mighty Miniwatts that use little if any more current than any other economical Philips Tube. Good reproduction depends on several things, but without a valve in the end socket capable of handling the current, it is impossible to obtain REAL music. Of course, ample grid and plate voltages must be used, but you'll find all that information inside the carton. Six Volt. Four Volt.

Ever New Adventures but the Same Batteries

When Byrd and Wilkinsmade theirbig double flight across the North Pole,Burgess RadioBatteries supplied the electrical energy for their radio equipment. Now both Explorers are .headed for the South- again carrying the same dependable batteries. Almost every day from somewhere in the world, news comes to us of new Burgess Adventures. And that Burgess Batteries have contributed their bit in so many events of sport, commerce, and explor- ation reflects the high esteem in which they are held.
