difficulties are ironed out and television is a commercial potential ity, there still will be one extremely tough nut to crack. For the new entertainment form will have to have the immediate, one-punch feature of radio, plus the rehearsed perfection of the theater and screen. = = n NE of television's most pressing problems seems to be the development of a network system. Ordinary telephone lines, which make the radio network possible, are not feasible in television. At present the only solutions are the expensive coaxial cable, now in operation between New York and Philadelphia, or the construction every 25 or 30 miles between transmitters. If all other big difficulties should be erased, it is possible tnat movies might be shown on individual stations by some affluent sponsor until a network was in existence. But special events should be television's stock

So one television factor yet to

be developed is the man to foot the bills. As radio produced the sponsor to supplant those venerable institutions, the audience and the wealthy patron, so television

Spring is here . . . the birds are singing . . . soft breezes stir, and all nature smiles its prettiest. No wonder that at this season of the year we like to relax and be lazy occasionally. And, why not! Of course, there is work to do because Winter always leaves things more or less topsy-turvy around the home. For those who are busy with various springtime household duties, we have a suggestion. If you haven't a telephone, get one right now '=and if you have a telephone, use it more. There are a hundred different ways it can save you time and steps.

Tm glad to work “like anything” Jn Summer, Winter, Gall or Spring. So call on me to get gel things done,
