What is your opinon of this?— G. F. S. ANSWER—Television is in the experimental stage. The large, wellequipped laboratories are doing considerable research and are making progress. There are also hundreds of amateur experimenters in the field. However, practical television apparatus for the home is not near enough, ncr will it evolve from the laboratory overnight, to make presentday receiving sets obsolete. Any one is absolutely safe in buying a receiving set for several years to come before television is simplified. It must be made practical and the images large and clear enough to warrant home use. The development will be gradual. Those who wait for practical, simple and clear television receivers as they will eventually appear will miss many fine musical broadcasts.
