SAFETY FIRST

the houses warm, it would be we'll for
all our people to exercise every pos

proper bounds. Look well to your
flues and see that none are defective.
Be careful about throwing live Goals
out where they may start o fire
Also be careful Of yourself and don't
get close enough to the CRATE for the

Direction Finders"

The study of a direction finder for
hostile airplanes was undertaken to
determine the direction of a plane be-
fore it was visible, by determining
the direction of the source of the
sound given off by its engines. This
is how it was done:
Two horns at fixed angle to one
another conveyed the sound to OPP
posite sides of the same diaphragm
and swung the horn system, both in
horizontal and vertical planes, until
there was no movement of the dia-
.phragm, because the sounds conveyed
by both horns were of equal value and
therefore neutralized one another.
1t was found very difficult to get
zero readings, but with some train
ing on the part of the observer the
direction could be determined with
considerable accuracy.
Having learned that telephone sys-
tens on ships were not very reliable
Mr.. Edison devised one that was. He
discarded microphones and substituted
the receiving phone for transmitter
The signals being weak he amplifec
with an audion, which made the sig
mails SO loud as to be painful to tht
ear.
4 Mr.. Edison also invented an ex
tension ladder which could be attached
to the top of the mast and give al
observer location 81 feet above tn
IItop Of the mast. This device increas
ed the area of observation.

The Sunday New York American

Washington:
The part American ingenuity play

Of the attention Of the board. To this
problem Mr. Edison devoted his trade
tional twenty-hour working days, and
after overcoming many obstacles fin
ally perfected his listening device.
This contrivance was in the form
of an outrigger suspended from the
bowsprit Of a vessel and containing
an immense photograph diaphragm.
By means Of compensators, the noise
Of the vessels engines was obliterated'
thus making it possible for the device
to work perfectly even when the snip
was blowing at full speed through the
toughest seas.
With this device boats moving l,fOl
yards away could be readily heare
while the vessel was going full speed
/ A submarine bell five and one-hali
miles away could also be heard whll'

boat also proceeding at full speed.
