A CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SOCIETY I soapsuds on a section of telephone Sunday services at 10:30 a. m.,| cable it means he is meticulous, not subject: “Truth.” Metal Phone Poles Metal telephone poles are used in South Africa because the white ants eat wooden ones. NETWORK of through telephone circuits be tween cities and sections of the country makes it as easy now to telephone a relative across the continent as to telephone your local grocer to send up a peck of potatoes. Today 92 per cent of all long distance calls are completed while the person calling re mains at the telephone, and the av erage time taken for putting through such calls is one and one-half min utes. In early telephone days, when service was informal and lines were few, it was not at all unusual for an operator to receive a call from a housewife and hear her say: “Mary, please see if you can find Charles and have him bring home some hamburg steak for dinner.” Today you seldom know your op erator by name, but she still will find people for you, across a state or across a continent. A subscriber said: “I want to talk to a man down on Cape Cod. I don’t know his name or town. But he raises Bcdlington terriers and has chin whiskers like Horace Gree ley’s.” The operator found him. Telephonic Posse. A prominent business mati was killed in an accident. His wife was in California, but no one knew just where. The chief long-distance telephone operator in New York set to work to locate her. Hotels in the southern part of the state were tried Thursdayl without success. I a. m. a. m.

Even the tiniest pinhole may admit moisture and cause trouble. So ni trogen gas under pressure is pumped into the cable, and if it leaks at any point, a bubble of soap suds will tell the tale. Safety First in Safety Belts. If ever you see a steer scratch himself on a barbed-wire fence, be assured that that portion cf his hide never will go into the making of a telephone lineman’s belt. Scratches weaken leather, and linemen climb ing poles trust their lives to their belts. The telephone works in very simi lar fashion to the human ear. In fact, the ear itself actually was the first “telephone,” and an electrical one at that. To make a man hear, you push and pull on his eardrum, causing it to vibrate thousands of times a sec ond. You do the pushing and pull ing, not by grasping his ear, but by using the energy of your voice. When you speak, the tiny particles or molecules that make up the sur rounding air are set in motion. They exert the push and pull on the man’s eardrum. They press on it only as heavily as a snip of hair l-1000th of an inch long—but that is enough. Behind the eardrum are tiny bones and chambers of liquid which are set to vibrating as the eardrum vi brates. In the inner ear the vibra tions are changed, scientists now be lieve. to electrical impulses that travel along nerves to the brain. Has Electrical Ear. A telephone works the same way. It enables you to push and pull on a man’s eardrum from a distance.

They in turn vibrate ago the listener’s ear drum. It v ttes, and he hears the sounds it are being spoken at the other end of the line. Has Language of Own. The telephone is a universal lin guist, though some people don’t al ways realize it. Once an enterpris ing Arab merchant in the Near East had a telephone installed, and the first customer who called spoke Greek. The Arab could not under stand Greek, and in high dudgeon went to the company and told them they had given him an instrument that spoke Greek whereas he want ed one that spoke Arabian! The telephone not only speaks all languages, but it also has a lan guage of its own, unlike any other tongue on earth. When your speech travels over a telephone wire, it is as private as if you were talking with someone in the middle of the Sahara. But when your speech goes out on the radio waves of the transatlantic telephone, anyone might listen in to one side of the conversation simply by tun ing his receiving set to the proper wave length. Therefore, when you telephone across the ocean, your voice goes through a device that translates all your u’ords into sounds wholly unin telligible. Your voice really is turned upside down—the high tones are turned into low ones, and the low ones info high ones. .Wanted—To buy some good dairy cows to be fresh in about 90 days. Wm.
