1. Radio
Boys First
Wireless
A
captivating
tale,
showing
how
several
boys of a
small town
became
interested
in
radiophoning
and how
they set
about
making
their own
receiving
apparatus.
They had,
of course,
a number
of rivals,
and when a
rich man
of that
vicinity
offered a
prize for
the best
made
amateur
set, their
rivals did
what they
could to
bring
their hard
work to
naught,
even going
so far as
to make
off with
the
apparatus
that was
to be
placed in
the
competition.
The story
gives many
direction
for
building a
small
wireless
receiving
set, and
also tells
of radio
work in
general,
how
airships
and other
vessels
have been
guided by
wireless,
how even
an
automobile
has been
steered by
radio, and
how the
Government
traces an
unlicensed
sending
station. A
book any
boy will
read with
avidity –
and many a
grown
person
will also
want to
dip into
it.

Boys In

radio
operator
had
inherited
the rights
to an
abandoned
gold mine
in the far
west and
he invited
the Radio
Boys to
join him
in a tour
of
investigation.
Some
unscrupulous
men said
the mine
was
worthless
and did
all they
could to
keep the
others
from
getting
into the
valley.
From the
very start
the Radio
Boys found
themselves
in a whirl
of
excitement
as one
thrilling
happening
followed
another.
They were
caught in
a wild
storm in
the
mountains,
and when
the mine
was at
last
reached
some of
them
became
lost in
the
underground
passageways
while
others
were
captured
by Indians
who had
left their
reservation
and were
working
the claim
on the
sly. How
radio came
to the
rescue of
the boys
and their
friend

The
steamer on

13. Radio
Boys To
the Rescue
When the
Radio Boys
went into
camp on
the edge
of a
pretty
lake, they
little
dreamed of
the
strange
and
strenuous
adventures
into which
they would
soon be
plunged.
They had
both a
receiving
and a
sending
set with
them, and
these
proved
their
worth a
little
later when
a pair of
twin
children
disappeared.
At first
the Radio
Boys were
accused of
being in
with the
kidnappers,
but later
on they
not only
proved
their
innocence,
but
through
the clever
use of
their
radio sets
they
placed the
authorities
on the
watch and
then
started an
investigation
of their
own which
brought
forth
astonishing
results. A
vivid
picture of
what radio
today is
capable of
accomplishing,
all told
in a style
both
fascinating
and
accurate.
A well
worth
while
radio
story that
any one
will enjoy
reading.
