AUGUST 10 IN HISTORY

Thomas Edison got the idea for
what is regarded as the most original
of his inventions, the first mechani-
cal reproducer of speech-the phono-
graph, August, 1877. An entry in his
laboratory log shows the 18th was the
date. he told John Kreusin, shop as
sistant, how to build it, Kreusin
completed and had it working within
a short time, and the instrument re-
cited MARY Had A Little Lamb" but
Edison was too deaf to hear it.
Edison's work had been simplified
by the researches of remarkable and
almost unknown man born 125 years
ago today, at Locust Grove, Lancaster
county, Pa. This was Samuel Steh-
man Haldeman, virtual founder of the
modern science of phonology, or study
of human vocal sounds.
Born with phenomenal sense OF
hearing-he could distinguish between
the sounds made by insects was
ne'er-do-well in school, preferring to
roam the woods and collect wild life
specimens. His family finally induc-
ed him to go to work as manager of
a sawmill, but unhappy as business
man, he managed to get himself ap-
pointed as an assistant to Pennsyl-
vanias State geologist. A century
ago this year he began the first of his
notable field work-a sectional study
of the Sesquehanna River.
Lesley's Biographical Memoirs, Ma
tional Academy of Sciences, says: .
"Haldeman's observations of the liv-
ing forms of nature revealed to him a
world which made all nature vocal,
speaking to his ear and to his imagi-
nation in distinct, articulate language,
analogous to that of human creatures
:. He was inspired to investigate
the pronunciation of the elements
and the syllable combinations of Ian
guage as they actually reproduced
themselves millions of times every
hour on the lips of tribes and nations
of savage and civilized peoples"
Philology as well as phonology be-
came passion with Haldeman. He
haunted Washington, because repre-
sentatives of all varieties of dialects
spoken in the country could be heard
there sooner or later: he went to
Rome, another cosmopolitan gather
ing place; and exhausted the vocal re-
