QADIO has placed a new , inspiring
f'-_ and powerful resource at the dis-
posal of civilization . · .
It has brought new romance into the
_world to replace the exploits of Pa1l
Revere and John Paul Jones . It travels
swift as light , not through one valley, or
on one lonely sea , but to the world at
large on the wings of the ether. Radio
answers the call for more liberal educa-
tion o_f nations and peoples , and per-
meates the remote places of the earth
· with the cultivating influence of music .
Radio Telephony, following closely upon
the heels of raoio telegraphy. is sweeping
the countr y, carrying into the homes of
rich and poor alike a modern facility of .
pleasure and education which is binding
the people together in a new and demo-
cratic brotherhood . A richer and more
complete home-life , with mental stimu- .
· !us and pleasant relaxation, has been
made possible through broadcasting and
its receiving corollary , the radio tele-
phone r-eceiver.
At present there are perhaps 125 to
200 radio telephone broadcasting stations
in the United States which are regularly
sending out news ai:,d entertainments to
the hundreds of' thousaP..ds of listeners
who have receiving apparatus. They
