WNU Service. A NETWORK of through telephone circuits between cities aid sections of the country makes it as easy now to telephone a relative i across the continent as to telephone your local grocer to send up u peck of potatoes. Today 92 per cent of all longdistance culls are completed while the person calling remains at the telephone, and the average time taken for putting through such calls is one and one-half minutes. In early telephone days, when service was informal and lines were few, it was not at all unusual for an operator to receive a call from a housewife and hear her say: "Mary, please see if you can find Charles and have him bring home some hamburg steak for dinner." Today you seldom know your operator by name, but she still will find people for you, across a state or across a continent. A subscriber said: "I want to talk to a man down on Cape Cod. I don't know his name or town. But he raises Bedlington terriers and has chin whiskers like Horace Greeley'#." The operator found him. Telephonic Posse. A prominent business man was killed in an accident. His wife was in California, but no one knew just where. The chief long-distance telephone operator in New York set to work to locate her. Hotels in the southern part of the state were tried without success. Finally she phoned the society editor of a Pasadena newspaper, and learned that the lady was visiting a Pasadena family. Calling that family, the lady was found, just 22 minutes after the hunt began. Queer things go Into making America's telephone service so efficient? from soapsuds to the lack of scratches on a steer's hide. If you see a workman painting soapsuds on a section of telephone cable it means he is meticulous, not , about cleanliness, but about leaks. Even the tiniest pinhole may admit | moisture and cause trouble. So niI trogen gas under pressure is j pumped into the cable, and if it i leaks at any point, a bubble of soapsuds will tell the tale. Safety First in Safety Belts. If ever you see a steer scratch himself on a barbed-wire fence, be J j assured that that portion of his hide \ never will go into the making of a telephone lineman's belt. Scratches weaken leather, and linemen climbing poles trust their lives to their I belts. ! The telephone works in very similar fashion to the human ear. In fact, the ear itself actually was the first "telephone," and an electrical one at that. I To make a man hear, you push and pull on his eardrum, causing it I to vibrate thousands of times a sec: end. You do the pushing and pulling. not by grasping his ear, but by using the energy of your voice. When you speak, the tiny particles ; or molecules that make up the surj rounding air arc sot in motion. They j exert the push and pull on the man's ! eardrum. They press on it only as heavily as a snip of hair l-1000th of an inch long?but that is enough. Behind the eardrum are tiny bones [ and chambers of liquid which are t set to vibrating as the eardrum viI brates. In the inner ear the vibra: tions are changed, scientists now believe. . to electrical impulses that (1 travel along nerves to the brain. | Has Electrical Ear. A telephone works the same way. |t It enables you to push and pull on | a man's eardrum from a distance. The telephone transmitter is an electrical ear It hears what you say and sends the words by electrical impulses over wires instead of over nerves. The air molecules set moving by your speech strike against a thin, j P.bt diaphragm wrnch acts like a human eardrum?it vibrates. Behind the diaphragm, instead of bones and nerves, are tiny grains of roasted coal, smaller than a pinhead, in a little chamber. Through the grains an electric current is flowing. When the diaphragm bends in- 1 ward, the grains are pushed tighter together, and more current flows. When it bends outward, the pressure on the grains is released and less current flows. So the flow of current is varied as the diaphragm vibrates. The transmitter with its battery supply is an amplifier as well. It turns the energy of your voice into electrical energy a thousand times greater. Through the wires current flows to the receiver, on the other end of the line. The receiver is an electrical mouth which utters human sounds. In it is an electromagnet. Another Diaphragm Moves. The incoming current flows through wire coiled around the core of the electromagnet and the strength of the magnet's pull varies with the strength of the current. It pulls on a thin, flat disk of iron, another diaphragm, which bends just as you can bend the bottom of a tin pan. As the strength of the current in the wire coil varies, the diaphragm bends back and forth. This also happens from a hundred to several thousand times a second. The current coming over the wires, flowing through the wire coil, thus exerts push and pull on the receiver diaphragm. As it vibrates, it imparts motion to the molecules of air in front of it. They in turn vibrate against the listener's eardrum. It vibrates, and he hears the sounds that are being spoken at the other end of the line. Has Language of Own. The telephone is a universal linguist, though some people don't always realize it. Once an enterprising Arab merchant in the Near East had a telephone installed, and the first customer who called spoke Greek. The Arab could not understand Greek, and in high dudgeon went to the company and told them they had given him an instrument j that spoke Greek whereas he wanti ed one that spoke Arabian! ] Xbo telephone not only speaks all languages, but it also has a language of its own, unlike any other tongue on earth. 1 When your speech travels over a telephone wire, it is as private as if you were talking with someone in 1 the middle of the Sahara. But when your speech goes out on the radio waves of the transatlantic telephone, anyone might listen in to one side of the conversation simply by tuni ing his receiving set to the proper wave length. Therefore, when you telephone across the ocean, your voice goes through a device that translates all your words into sounds wholly unintelligible. Your voice really is turned upside down?the high tones are turned into low ones, and the low ones into high ones. At London, Ma), George Clement Tryon, postmaster generalf is seen inaugurating the world's first mobile telephone exchange. The new system wilt be used in places where additional telephonic communica- j tions are needed. A hopeless tangle to the layman, intricate networks of underground wires are the plaything of telephone workers like this man. Every wire goes somewhere?and he knows whereI FOR QUICK SALE j Three hundred twenty acre*, more or less, known a? the C. E. DavU farm and located about ten mile* southeast from the town of Kershaw.

I j ABOUT 10,000,000 IN ARMIE8 PLUS NAVIES AND AIR FORCES Iamdon, Aug. 23.?Estimates of Informed observers?military restrictions preclude any more exact compilation?Indicated today that Europe's armies, excluding naval and air forces, were approaching 10,000,;000 men. General conjecture among military observers has been that In land power a" rough balance existed between the j Rome-Berlin Axis and the BritishFrench front and their associated powers," with Soviet Russia's estimated 2,000,000 men under arms outside the calculations. Aviation experts never have been able to agree as to the warplane strength of the Old World nations, individual estimates varying by thousands. British superiority on the seas is generally conceded. The precautionary calling up of thousands of men, In the last several days is an almost unknown quantity. For the purpose of a rough survey the following figures appear In many estimates: France?More than 1,000,000. Its standing Army of 800,000 has been augmented by 300,000 to 600,000 men recently. Britain?Betweep 600,000 and 700,000. The British Cabinet acknowledged last night that additional perI sonnel was being called up. (This does not take into account Egypt and India). Poland?Approaching 1,000,000. Turkey?300,000. Greece?200,000. As for the Rome-Berlin Axis the latest Italian figure mentioned has been 1,300,000. Recent troop movements in Ger-| many have swelled the Nazi land forces somewhere between 1,750,000 and 2.000,000. Considered separately are figures of 1150,000 upward for Spain; 300,000 for Yugoslavia; 275,000 for Rumania; and 200,000 upward for Hungary. In still another bystander or neutral category might be listed 500,000 for the combined forces of Bulgaria, Belgium, the Baltic States, Portugal and Switzerland. The country's "best country newspaper man" likes his home town of Madisonvllle, Tex., (pop. 2,000) "because if you go into Will Black's barber shop without any money he'll let you pay later." "Here in New York, they'd probably call a cop?people are so suspicious," added young Henry Fox, editor of the Madisouville Weekly Meteor, who consented to come to New York only because he won the trip, and $500, in competition with 4,600 other rural journalists in the Country Home magazine's fifth annual competition.
