How It's Done.
(Hartford Courant.l


The News Bulletin, published by the
New England Rureau Of Public Service
Information at Boston, tells of a carrier
system which has been installed beUweeII
Burlington. vt. and Boston by the New
England Telephone Co. in order to expe-
dite the volume of traffic between and
through these two points. 1t adds that
there are but few such systems in the
world. The unusual feature is that by
means Of the system three conversations
may be carried on Mt the same time over
the same pair of wires in addition to the
conversation carried on over the pair of
wires used as an ordinary physical cir
cult. The explanation Of how it is done
follows -
The system is 50 set up. however.
that different carrier frequenCies are sent
over the line. and on these different fire.
Quencies are sUperimp0Sed different voice
frequencies. which are automatically di-
verted at the receiving end to the various
lines to which the voice frequencies are
attuned."
This NAV not be entirely clear to some
This is added -
For example. suppose number of
marbles are rolled from Burlington to
Boston. Upon arrival. they would 60
into a sieve-like instrument with holes of
various sizes which would allow some Of
the marbles to go through while retaining
others. This process of automatic splec-
tion gives an idea of the automatic sep
aration and distribution Of the four voices
on the wire"
Perhaps it does. but we know persons,
and they are near and dear To us, whose
only reaction to this explanation would
be to inquire how You could roll marbles
from Burlington to Boston But we ad-
NIT that it's wonderful.
