railroads were urged to develop some
means of stopping trains on signal

The device, when worked out, in all
probability will be electrical. 1t must

throttle lever in the engineers cab.
Numberiess inventions Of signals
which would register in the cab have

HUGE MEGAPHoNE USED
BY TRAIN ANNOUNCER
Giant Horn In Washington Railway
Station Measures Ten Feet
Across Large Opening

A gigantic megaphone for announo-
ing the arrival and departure of trains
at the Pennsylvania Railroads term
inal in Washington, d. c. has been de-
veloped to such a degree Of success
that sounds emitted by it reach clear
ly to every corner OF the huge station,
despite the fact that the announcer is
not required to raise his voice much
higher than an ordinary conversations
al tone.
The megaphone which is mounted
on high wooden platform, is inter-
esting, not only because of its gigan-
tic proportions-for two men could
crawl inside and hide comfortably
but also because it is the elimination
Of a great many painstaking expert
ments.
Probably the most important dis
covery in connection with all the de.
vices tried was that flat horn carries
sound with fuller volume and less dis
tortion than round horn of the same
general proportions. Accordingly, a
huge flat megaphone was built and q
number of smaller horns were secured
within it, all being controlled by a
single mouth piece. AS it now stands
it contains no inner megaphones.
Long iron wires have been attached,
extending from near the mouthpiecc
to beyond the end Of the no /. Their
purpose is to prevent echoine and to
purify and clarity the sound. The
giant megaphone measures ten feet
four inches across the large opening
and eight feet in length.

When the fruit comes from the ma
