BRITISH MADE!
In February this year, says the British Commercial News, a cyclist was travelling home with a new radio valve in his left-hand coat pocket, when he was run down by a motor-car from behind, and thrown a good distance along the road, crashing on to his left side. It was some time before the pained and bewildered rider realised that his newly-purchased property might have met with disaster, but his unpleasant: accident was somewhat mitigated by the surprise he had upon retrieving the radio valve from his pocket. . Although the box was completely smashed, the valve it contained was apparently unbroken, and the unfortunate incident of the road was completely forgotten when, npon inserting his new Mullard P.M. valve into his receiver, he fonnd that it was in perfect condition, z Once more the merit of a Britishmiade article has been brought home by an experience for which the manufacturer merely states in his literature ‘will withstand the roughest handling." ‘ :
