THF GREAT TELESCOPE

G0LlE1 1Il4L4ONO4 II
At Pasadena, California, the Mt.
Wilson telescope is by far the larg-
est in the world and on account of
some of the discoveries with this new
instrument we believe that a descrip-
ton of this great machine and the
story of its installation will be of in
terest to many of the readers of the
Producers News.
One of the most important pieces
Of this great instrument is the 100
inch piece Of glass that is placed in
the top of the telescope. This one
piece of galss weighs four and one
half tons. The Paris Glass Works
experimental for three years to cast
a piece that would be acceptable, then
this was taken by boat to Pasadena
and there ground and polished for
years by the greatest experts in their
line in the world; it was then packed
in parafne and taken by autos timed
to run only two miles per hour up to
the. top of Mt. Wilson when it was
placed in the top of this great teles-
cope.
The telescope hangs in a carriage
weighing five hundred tons and all is
covered by a canopy weighing one
hundred tons. The movements of al
this machinery is controlled by cleo
tricity.
After the canopy is removed and
! this great lens pointed to that point
/ in the heavens desired, then the clock
timing machinery is applied to holC
the instrument back against the 70,
tation of the Earth upon its axis anC

operator chooses.

dowment and is used mostly FOL

Mrs. Fisher rose in Indignation.
Really, you are impossible. Just
what do you mean?" she demanded.
There's no use getting excited
about it." Ellie's voice was unusually
calm but in her eyes, there was a
CLINT of bitterness, of lost faith in
humanity and of a love that had
turned to ashes.
"Just this" she answered, you are
the sort of woman who allows her
self to "go' mentally after she's had
her husband so long that she regards
him as a fixture. Oh. there's no ex-

Readiness,
To Serve

One of the chief values of the
telephone is its constant, continu-
Gus, consistent readiness to serve.
The receiver is always on the hook,
the operator is always ready to re-
ceive the call, the exchange through
which the call is to be made is al.
ways there, ready to serve.
In retail store the clerk may be
busy, the particular article wanted
may be sold out or. the place closed
to celebrate a holiday. But the
telephone is always ready.
It costs the Mountain States
Telephone and Telegraph Com
pany many. thousands of dollars
every year to maintain its lines
ready to serve" Much of this ex-
pense could be lessened if the work
men were permitted to take their
time about repairs. But, to keep
up the standard of service which is
always the Company's ideal, re-
pairs must be made NOW.
The telephone must be ready to
serve, whatever the emergency.
