THE WIRELESS TELEPHONE

Wireless Telephony Is the art OF
changing air vibrations into vibra-
tons Of ether whose lesser resist
ance enables them to be carried to
great distances. In the wireless tel
ephone the air waves are translated
into vibrations of an electrical dis
turbence which osctllates the ether.

telephone and many other successful
inventions, the public may not know
how IL works-but only that il does
work.
