ONE PENNY PER NIGHT

THAT IS WHAT YOUR 1 LICENSE COSTS A Penny a night, and the world at ™ your command! That's exactly what a radio license costs the listen-er-in to-day. , And radio can be every man's hobby because, those who are unable to afford an expenditure of several pounds on an elaborate radio receiver, can set up the humble but very satisfactory crystal set for a few shillings. Radio is perhaps the greatest marvel of the modern world, and the fringe of its possibilities has only been touched. . # "Truth" knows of. one little chap of six years who is the proud possessor of a remarkable crystal receiver which only cost a few shillings, but provides him with more fun than all his more expensive 'toys. He can attach the •set to a water tap and out comes the music, a fact which his father declares has considerably encouraged and developed the youngster's natural inclination towards music.
