Mr.. Edison learned telegrapby at very
early age and became very expert in it,
On one occasion he was sent for to fill
the position OF telegraph operator az
Washington. He was not very we'll
known then except in his profession, and
so when he presented himself at the
office he got rather cool reception from
the gentlemen there. They had expected
an older, more experienced and more pol ;
ished man. and they laughed at the
thought OF this mere boy taking the
position. He was sent to see the presi-
lent OF the company, who seemed rather
doubtful of the young man. but sail he
would give him trial. He was toli Q
report at the Office that night. Nigh,
work Is the HARDEST, because the long
messages are saved till then. The pre-. u
diced men in the office determined Ia
knock him OUT on the trial, aud sent
word TO the operator at the other end
70 send the messages on the "douolt
quick" that night. So Edison was TO have
4 hard time. for dispatches can be sem
much quicker than they can be taken

II is said this kite flying is very exciting
operation. Such a strorg current Of cleo
tricity runs from the kite to the earth
that, IN the mildest summer night the
charge is sufficient to knock dawn strong
man.
During the last few years the United
States government has had 1917 kite flights
at different stations. BY means of these
air messengers storms are foretoid and
many lives saved. You see man Is reach
ing out into the empire OF the air, SUD
DUNG its elements, learning its secrets
and by means of the intelligence given
him by his Creator making himself master
OF the air as we'll as of the earth aud the
sea. Kite flying like this done by Mr..
McAdie is a very different thing from the
kites that the Happyhammers have been
flying the past month. but the principle is
the same and when You feel that kite tug
