feats but they were just as essential
to the growth of athletics in our
school as the game that will win the
championship five years from now.
Helena closed a season during which
she has won a clear title to the state
high school championship by defeating
us and she did it with team that
had been developed by three years of
repeated defeats. Good athletic teams
are those that can take defeats and try
again. After the first game we had
no hope of winning the second, but
the defeat and the humiliation of the
first nights score had developed a
spirit which was unknown in our

fought it out to the finish, as all Fer

DISCOVERY OF
TELEPHONE
ACCIDENT LED TO ITS iNVEN.
TON A FEW YEARS
AGO,

Thirty years ago last month the
first telephone message was trans
mitted from one room of a Boston
boarding house to another. The
speaker was Alexander Graham Bell,
tie inventor, and the man at the 9TH
er end of the wire was Thomas A.
Watson, his assistant.
There was none of the pOmp and
ceremony which attended the send
ing of the first telegraph message.
Pei and his coworker were not work
irg in the interest of some future
painter of historical pictures or pre-
pairing epigrams for future historians.
The message was "Mr. Watson, come
here, want you"
Discovered by Accident.
Two years before this epoch-mark-
inS message was transmitted, Mr..
Fell, then an instructor in vocal path
o]ogy in Boston university and inter-
ested in scheme for transmitting
several Geographic messages over the
same wire simultaneously, called at
the electrical shop where Watson
was employed. Watson was elected to
construct the apparatus which Mr..
Bell desired, and they soon became
acquainted.
Mr.. Bell had a hazy idea that
sound vibrations of all kinds might
be transmitted over a wire, and repro.
ouced by an instrument at the 9th.
or end, but thought little of it at the
time. In June, 1875, he was tuning one
of the springs in the apparatus upon
which he was at work when Watson
accidently snapped a similar spring
in the apparatus in the adjoining
room. Bell heard the sound distinctly
and the rest of the day was spent in
! Investigating this phenomenon. It was
found that the springs which were
near magnets, had become magnet
lied and were capable of producing
by vibration the undulatory electric
current which is the basic principle
l or the modern telephone.
The First Message.
After nearly year spent in follow
ing out the line of work suggested
by this accident, the first spoken mes
sage was transmitted in March, 1876
Later the apparatus was exhibited a
the Centennial, where it was viewet
and praised by many scientists
among them Sir William Thompson
now Lord Kelvin. The next step wa
Boston to Cambridge over a privat
telegraph wire owned by the Wa
worth Mfg. company.
LaughabIe Forecast Came True.
Then company was formed to ez
r!oit the invention. Bell, Watson
Gardiner, Green Hubbard (Bell's faith
erin-law) and Thomas Sanders of So
lem were the incorporates. This wa
in 1877, and long litigation with tn
Western Union Telegraph compan,
threatened for time to wipe tn
rev company out of existence.
Shortly after the formation of tn
company Mr.. Watson predicted tina
by 1900 there would be 100000 tele
phones in use, but afterwards laugh
Ell at this statement as extravagant
AS it turned out he fell far below tn
actual number instead of everest
mating. The Bell companies had $50
600 subscribers in 1900, and now hav
more than 100000.
