telephonei because of the Alexander Graham Bell centenary Reading the I learned more pounds of publicity about Alexander Graham Bell than ever knew before I had read of how he dreamed of making the telegraph instrument “talk” and bow and why hls dream came true didn’t know about hit father’s deep study of phonetics and hls own interest in "making speech visible' in teaching the deaf to talk or that he was an accomplished musician or many other facets of this remarkable man’s remarkable history I already knew a little about the business from first band telephone observance It was just about 20 years before ever used a telephone that Bell thanks to hls harmonically trained ear found on that day In 1875 that what he thought could be done had been achieved in his own laboratory on Court street Boston From then on it was just a question of removing “the bugs” The next year he was demonstrating his instrument before audiences with conversations over several miles of wire Before he died at the age of 75 people were talking over an underwater cable from United State to I Cuba to I doubt return if the great inventor were to earth today he would their wires rents left It was worse Stray curpower wires or the rails of electric railways and took a short cut back to the power house (4) Wherever they found s good conductor like a lead cable that was like thumbing a ride for the wandering volts and amperes Bo far so good But eventually they had to leave the cable to find their way to a better conductor or just to say “so and struggle back to the long" dynamo (5) When they did that "electrolytic action” set in The lead in the cable sheath followed the current as far as it could (like the substance In the bath) and left the aheath porous Dampness and destruction came in and soon your telephone line was out of order My job consisted of sitting by the hour watching the face of an ammeter (which register the direction and flow of electric current) and where the current was discovering Then I had to get the escaping power company to do what it could to stop leaks and the telephone company did all it could to keep stray current out or to provide a safe exit for what got in In the process I learned much more than I earned— not much about electrical engineering but I had a fine view of several Middle Western cities— e views too for I worked in cable boxes up on poles as well as down in manholes and also learned that it isn’t who “meet so only newspapermen many Interesting people When I ponder on my electrolytic age and also when I “address the mike" Mondays

day recently I received a telephone call from my friend Capt E John Long USNR who is assistant curator of the United States naval museum at Annapolis I detected exultation in his voice and sura when I

stamp Baldridge already had a letter of Jones’ this sentence containing "America has been the country of my fond election from the age o ( 13" Since It was known he sailed from Whitehaven England in 1760 that would make the birth date (1760 minus 13) 1747 But the birth date was not actually recorded in any authentic writing not even the early Jones biography However there by Charles Sands came into temporary possession of a copy of that Captain Baldridge work upon whose margins Janette had written some caustic Taylor comment Miss Taylor was a niece of Jones who had been a close and meticulous student of her uncle’s life and many of his papers which she possessed One of her holographic statements re the picture of Jones in the frontispiece was this: it is even too old making every allowance for his mode of life for a just representation of hls appearance at the time of his death he was then only 45 years and 12 days’’ (His death 1792 is of record) That tied it No wonder
