SENATOR WEEKS

ZONE of the Weekses, save John
IN Wingate, the senator and the
Massachusetts candidate for
president-toning as they all did
among the granite humps of New
lHampshire-was ever noted for his ac-
cumulation of cash or property.
They were farmers mostly, begin
ming with Leonard Weeks, who, emf
grating from England in 1856, became
the head and source of the family.
Agriculture sternly practiced among
the embedded rocks and irremovable
powders taught them to be resource
ful and to keep at least one eye open
to opportunity
So William D., the father of the SEN
ator, was a probate Judge, and once
essayed to be a manufactures. With
the cooperation of neighbors, likewise
alert and adventurous, he started a
factory at Lancaster for making starch
from potatoes.
Il will never forget the look on my
fathers face" Captain Weeks told me,
when. on a Sunday morning, Just as
we were leaving church, we saw men
and boys running down the street and
heard them crying: The starch fac
tory is burning

FOREST OFFICIAL INYENTS
LIGHT PORTABLE TELEPHONE

A portable telephone, made of alu-
minum and weighing 212 pounds, the
invention of a Forest officer, r. B.
Adams, of Missoula, Montana, will be
part of the regular equipment of pa
trolmen on the national forests the
coming season. This instrument is re.
garded as a great improvement over
the set formerly used, which weighed
ten pounds.
A field man equipped with this tele-
phone, few yards of light emergency
wire, and a short piece of heavy wire
to make the ground connection, can
cut in anywhere along the more than
10000 miles of forest service telephone
lines and get in touch with the head
quarters of a supervisor or district
ranger. To talk, one end of the emer-
gency wire is thrown over the tele
phone line, the two ends are connected
to the portable instrument, and the in
strument is connected to the ground
wire. the end of which must be thrust
into the damp earth or in water. Con-
tact with the line wire is made posi-
BILE by removal of the insulation from
few inches of the emergency wire.
1ue AudHlS ubtS nut iluS
the bell of the receiving telephone, but
instead causes a screeching sound from
a small megaphone-shaped apparatus,
descriptively known as a "howler. !"
This instrument is installed at the
ranger station telephone and is said to
give effective notice that someone is on
the wire If the field man needs to
talk with someone elsewhere on the
line, the ranger station instrument can
be used to ring up the person wanted,
when the conversation can be carried
on.
These portable phones are especially
valuable in reporting fires and other
emrgencies with the least possible de-
lay, and also in sending instructions
to field men and keeping the district
rangers posted as to the progress of
work in the field, thus supplementing
the regular telephone sets installed at
lookout points, ranger stations and
convenient intervals along forest SER
vice roads and trails.
