SPEED IN NEWS SENDING
Recent Invention Called the Teletype,
Delivere 60 Printed Word*1
a Minute.
The fjiHh'.wt machine #v#i l& vested
for transmitting news event# .In called
the teletype.
While n?\vi by ordinary tuleginph j
Id the Morte code came In Mt the rate j
of thirty-live word* u minute, the tele
type printed the messages at the rate i
of Ofty words u minute.
The tetetjrpe is a simple, compact
Instrument which prluts the messages
on a strip of paper one-half Inch wide,
similar to the ordinary ticker "tupe."
Its Inventors assert It will operate
for long periods without adjustment,
or attention beyond supplying It with
< paper and Ink. It la said to be 80 sim
ple It can he opera tod hy any one
with an elementary knowledge of elec-.
trlclty and mechanics.
Any reasonable number of receiving
station# may receive news by Its use
from oue central transmitting station.
ThiMK) may either be connected all on
one wire o# a number of wires* radlat
Ing from a central station may be
used.
The same principle Is used la the
teletype as In the simple Morse tele
graph, only hy omitting a series of
clicks the movement of the keys
causes the machine at the other end
of the wire to print proper letters.
Instead of sending out dots ami dash
es. which require skill and training
In transmission, the operator merely
presses a typewriter' key and the re
ceiving machine prints the required
letter.
A small motor, such as Is used to
supply power for many modern office
appliances, operates the teletype. The
rolls of "tape" on which the news
Is printed are large enough to re
ceive from 15.000 to 10,000 , words be
fore replacement.
Flattery.
It Is impossible to tell the whole
truth to an average human being and
still to remain on terms of friendship
with him. There is little friendship
without make-believe. - "If two men are
close friends, you may take it that
they have been pretending to a con
siderably higher estimate of each oth
er than they would set down In ,a per
fectly honest diary.
It is not necessary that they should
deliberately lie to one another, but
they must discreetly conceal a certain
amount of the Criticism that is going
on all the time behind the bones of
their skulls.
What is said In a spirit of truth is
set down to malice. Can a man be
your friend if he steals the crown
from your head? Can he be your
friend even If he steals a single jewel
from your crown ? especially the paste
Jewel? We have nil ? the greatest and
the meanest of us ? paste Jewels In our
< rowns. Will n polnt-thenr

much Inclined to scoff? Or will he
not rather -organize a claque that will
pretend to b*> <l:tzzled by diamonds?
Man is nut only a realist. He |<? also
ii lover of romance-. Ho dreams of
what he would be quite as often lis he
deplores what he is. lie cannot help
being attracted bv people who make
liis dream appear true. There Tire
some men who are such Intense ego
ists that they can believe in the truth
of their dreams without any assistance
from other people. Soul bey agreed
that hi* "Madoc" was "the best Eng
lish poem since 'Paradise Lost.'"
There was no need to tell him so;
lie knew it already. ? New Statesman.
