Listening Devices in HuIIs Tell
Channel Route Into New

Sound Waves Emitted by Energized

phones on Vessels.

New York-The principle Of "fol-
low the green line" used successfully
by the management of New YOrk's
subway system In handling crowds at
congested transfer points, has been
adapted In a measure to insure safety
to ships at sea around crowded har-
bCrs. Instead Of visible green
line" however, device has been per
fected whereby vessels seeking their
way into harbor in thick weather can
follow with safety a submerged and
energlzed wire.
In the outer reaches of New York
harbOr where deep water meets
shoals, there begins a marine passage
way known as Ambrose channel. This
channel leads up through the Mar
rows into the inner harbor and to the
docks, and in this channel the guiding
cable has been laid Ships properly
equipped to take advantage Of its
guiding powers can follow it through
any kind of weather with the same
degree OF assurance as can the pas

Guides by Sound Waves.
The device consists of q cable 10
miles long laid in the center Of the
channel. 1t is energized with an al
ternating current from the shore.
Ships to take advantage Of 1t must
be equipped with audiphones or listen
ing devices attached to the hull. APP
preaching the channel the sound
waves emitted by the cable can be
heard for some distance, and the in
creaslng or decreasing strength Of the
sound enables the ship to BIO steered
until It is right over the source.
II Is then a simple matter to fol-
low its course through the dredged
channel despite storm or fog, which
would make the marking buOys invis-
ible or would tend to confuse the
warning notes Of automatic bell and
whistle markers.
Can Tell Exact Location.
This cable is but an additional pro
lection for shipping entering Ameri.
can ports. 1t supplements the radio
compass installed and operated by the
naval communications service now in
successful use all along the Atlantic
coast. BY the compass ships can as
certain their exact position In any
kind Of weather Another protec-
ton recently tried out by the navy
department Is a machine for deter
mining depth of water and proximity
of other ships through the readings Of
sounds from the propelers reflected
back from the bottom or nearby
bodies.

RAINFALL IN PALATKA
AREA ESTIMATED
At IS INCHES

Yesterdays Palatka News says
1t is estimated that more than six
teen inches of rain fell in this area
between noon Saturday and o'clock
Monday night, making new record,
from all accounts. The instruments
at the station in st. Augustine regis
tered that amount of rainfall during
that period which is a record.
Water is slowly recedmg from the
potato fields in this section and Has
tings, but farmers have little hope
that the seed will come up. Today
started out to, be clear and xsnnshina,
but the sun remained out but a short
while before clouds gathered and It
looks like rain again.
The damage to the roads and rail-
roads in the county will run into
thousands Of dollars. Nearly all Of
the clay roads are washed out and
will have to be resurfaced. This is
also true of the gravel roads and
Chairman Steen, of the Board Of
County Commissioners says there Ia
not sufficient money available to put
the roads in the same condition they
were before the storm.
All trains have been resumed be-
tween here and Jacksonville, the

HUMAN SYMPATHY

We were talking, yesterday, to q
good friend who has but recently
passed under the rod of affliction, and
who was borne down bby great sor-
row, "Ah! but" said he what COM
1t was to find so much genuine SYM
pathy In the hearts of our friends and
neighbors and of all the people
amongst whom we dwell" mo one"
he continued could ever convince
me that human sympathy is not ready
to respond whenever sorrow and mis-
fortune befalls u.s."
And so 1t is. The people of this
rushing world go about their own af-
fairs with apparant indifference to
others. They seem, at times, to be
entirely selfish and callous. Then,
when occasion demands, we pause In
stantly, to offer sympathy and to ex-
tend the helping hand. A great writ
er speaks of 1t as the noblest phase OF
human life. my own circumstances"
said he, "are indeed so narrow and
scanty that | should taste but little
pleasure, could receive it only from
thos eenjoyments which are in my
own possession but by this great tine
ture of humanity which | find, in all
my thoughts and reflections, the ap-
probation of the sympathy of my fell
low man."
This old editor has passed through
more, perhaps, than his share of mis-
fortune, disappointment and sorrow.
and he knows that there is far more
good than bad, in the human heart .
