consists of five rooms, the most important
being: the. studio . or microphone
room from which the actual
broadcasting will be carried on. Adjoining
the microphone room are two
others, one for the radio sending and
receiving apparatus and the other
containing the power equipment required
to supply the transmitting energy.
The studio incorporates the very
latest acoustical treatment. The wails
are covered with layers of draperies
and the floor beneath the heaviest oi
carpets. Besides these three rooms
there is an extensive office for transacting
the business of the station with
a considerable force to handle the
communications of "listeners in," and
a very attractive reception room foi
the convenience of the artists. .The
station is especially well located and
with its four 250 and one 50 wstl
vacuum tubes expects to break some
long distance records. These tubes
have the very newest filament coating
that will insure the maximurr
electron emission. In short, from mv
crophone to antenna, every construe
tion detail is the best obtainable anc
is considered by the Western Electrit
Company, who built it, as a revelation
in^ broadcasting stations.
No expense has been spared in th<
matter of erecting the station an<
equipping it.

CARBONATEP WATER SAFEST.

| Washington, D. C., June 6.?The
common expression, "a dried-up old
man" has no basis in fact, and the
athlete who claims to be "as hard a?
nails" is really like a sponge,
j For, says Dr. Fisk, medical director
cf the Life Extension Institute, in a
recent paper on* the amount of water
we should drink each da>*^ the water
content of the human body^m old age
is from 81.2 to 84.8 per cent, as compared
with 75 to SO per cent in earlier
life, and the athlete's muscles really
are 76 per cent water.
b About six glasses is a fair daily
average, Dr. Fisk says, unless hot
weather or violent exercise make one
perspire freeiy. And he also scouts
. the theory that fluids taken with
meals interfere with the digestion.
On the contrary, he declares, water
o stimulates the gastric juice and aid?
digestion.
Dr. Fisk emphasizes the necessity
of scientific analysis and points out
T that nn plain water is absolutely
pure. The ordinary household filters,
he also declares, remove some kinds
^ of impurities but cannot screen pot
disease germs.
^ In this Dr. Fisk agrees with the
scientists at Mellon Institute of Industrial
Research who recently made
v exhaustive tests of the effect of carbonation
on disease germs in water
j and beverages. They discovered that
; carbonic gas?the gas which puts the
Rubbles in bottled carbonated beverages,
commonly known as soda water
> ?also makes such beverages the safest
to d*ink. Their tests prove, they
declare,' that carbonic gas as used in
? bottling these beverages not only
- prevents the growth of dangerous
e bacteria but also destroys the germs
1 of virulent diseases with which they
- had inoculated samples for testing.
