Wireless Phone in Battle.

" IL C4OSS hoAC III DdIIAO.
In action the wireless phone will be
useful not only for communication be-
tween the admiral and his captains, but
with torpedo boats. collier; and dispatch
boats on detached service and with light
ships. lighthouses and other shore sta
tions. Except in actual battle there
would be little danger of interference
from the enemy, because, unlike the wire
less telegraph, it's range IS limited to
radius of twelve miles. But even in close
action it can be used to transmit mes
sages in code words If the mast carry
ing the web-work transmitting wires
the aerial or 'antennae"-were shot
away Dy the enemy wire run up on an
oar elevated on deck would give Sufh-
cient connection for the wireless phone.

Eardrums for Each Ship.
These ships are being given eardrums
and. some of them, tongues. Divers who
have worked under the sea have known
for many generations what good and de-
pendable conductor of sound water is.
But, just as was the case with electricity,
it was not until many years after the
pioneer investigators had learned the law
of the phenomena that any one had the
genius to make use of it. But in our gen.

The position Of the lightship is esti-

sounds coming from the two microphones.

sound of the distant sunken bell than do IS

beating it's code number is on the port side
of the ship. When the navigator gets

each lightship may be distinguished and
located by it's bell. just as in clear wealth

by the number and arrangement of It's

Hearing a Distant Ships Screw.
Submarine whisperings other than those
of the sunken bell are picked up by the
delicate microphonas. The sounds of the
propellers of passing vessels are often
plainly audible. If the neighboring ship
Is crossing from starboard to port her
screw will be heard more clearly in the
starboard than in the port microphone.
Ships without receivers can hear the
bell. 1t is distinctly audible to those
who put their ears to the inner surface of
the hull we'll below the water line Thus

vessel failing to hear them may be on a
safe course and in her estimated position,
yet she must stop or anchor or alter her
course because she is uncertain

The ability of submarine boats to talk
