‘Keep Fit!
O be well, you must keep the
blood stream free from impur-
ities. If the kidneys lag, allowing
body poisons to accumulate, a toxic
condition is created. One is apt to
feel dull, languid, tired and achy.
A nagging backache is sometimes a
| symptom, with drowsy headaches
and dizzy spells. That the kidneys
are not functioning properly is often
shown by burning or scanty passage

TELEPHONE EQUIPMENT USEFUL IN
Communication Retween Pylons
Crowd Hears Plainly Through Loud Speakers
Makes for Safety and Accuracy:
Above—Home pylon
at Model Field
Farms. Right—Ob-
servers and tele-
phone at top of
pylon.
When the National Air Races were
held at Philadelphia recently, Bell
telephone equipment played a large
part in supplying an element of
safety and accuracy to the contests
In addition to making possible in-
stantaneous checkings on the flying,
telephone installations gave immedi-
ate communication in the event of
mishaps, and the amplifying appara-
tus permitted everyone on the field to
learn what was taking place.
All the latest known developments
of aeronautical engineering were dis-
played, and the art of Bell telephone
engineers was also brought into very
prominent notice through the aid
which the various installations gave
to the conductors of the meet. A
telephone was installed at the “home
pylon”—the big tower on Model
Farms Flying Field, near Philadel-
phia, marking one corner of the 12-
mile triangular course—and conne:t-
ed with it were similar telephones in
the other two pylons used during the
races. One of these was located at
Paulsboro, N. J., across the Dela-
ware River from Model Farms, and
the other stood at Woodbury, N. J.
Still a fourth installation was made
pylon, so that all four places could
be in continuous communication with
each other. These installations were
made to check the planes as they
went around the course during the
races. Although they were not used
to record the times of the ships, they
were invaluable in making sure that
each contestant was progressing well,
and also to report any cases of forced
landings or smash-ups. Fortunately,
there was no occasion during the

crashes, although one or two pilots
were forced down through minor
difficulties. In these instances a
quick and sure check-up was made by
telephone, and other airplanes sent
to the aid of the unfortunate racer
who was forced to descend. Officials
in each of the pylons made sure that
the pilots passing the pylon were liv-
ing up to the rules of tha race, and in
this way a technical check was made
for the records.
In addition to this installation, a
Bell Telephone Public Address Sys-
tem was installed, through which the
announcer could be plainly heard by
the thousands on the field. When
events were scheduled to be run, off,
it was he who informed the spectators
of what was taking place. The speed
of the ’planes as they finished each
lap was also announced over the
amplifiers, and in-between-times
“Swanee” Taylor, the announcer,
kept the crowd amused by his touches
of wit and impromptu speeches. The
“mike” was even used to locate the
mother of a frightened youngster
who had been lost in the crowd at the
time, and throughout the week's
events it filled a place which would
have been quite vacant without it
Then, too, the representatives of
newspapers and press associations
who attended the races required tele-
phones, and these were supplied to
the press stand so that the reporters
could transmit the news while it was
“hot.”
All installations were made by the
Bell Telephone Company of Pennsyl-
vania, and the Public Address Sys.

and useless. The cost of constructing
such cable is very high, and great |
care is consequently taken in laying |
them to see that no damage is done
the long “talking serpent.”
When the cable is laid, it marks
the end of a long task. For some
time before the actual laying, the
cable has been assembled at a certain
place, unreeled from the big wooden
reels, spliced together where one reel ,
stops and a new one begins, and load- |
ed on a barge or other craft for the
actual “sinking.” The tug pulling
the barge starts out, and as it moves |
the cable on the barge is “payed out.” |
It is very heavy, and sinks immedi- |
ately. The men working on the job
have to see that no kinks get into the |
long stretch of steel, and as it goes |
over the side to watch that it pays |
out at a uniform speed—not too fast,
not too slowly. Then, too, the cable |
is being constantly tested to see that |
none of that already laid has de-
veloped a leak. In all, the crew is |
indeed a busy one. |

gigantic proportions. The 1,000,000th
telephone would require 999,999 addi-
tional lines to connect with all other
telephones,
While research and invention have
simplified this problem by introduc-
ing the telephone switchboard, such
a puzzle did at one time confront
telephone engineers.
By the introduction of the switch-
board, however, all the complications
of outside wiring in the scheme of
interconnecting telephones are trans-
ferred to the central office itself.
Here is found the equivalent of the
ing the millionth telephone to the
system. Thousands of miles of wire,
hundreds of switchboard terminals
and innumerable relays and solder
needed at each
switchboard for this purpose. As the
size of the telephone system increases
there is a proportionate growth in
the complexity of the switchboard
equipment and wiring.
Nor is the problem completely
solved by the interior wiring. All
ed
nected by trunk lines and the tele-
phones themselves must be joined to
the switchboard by independent pairs
of wires.

Rooting Out Slavery
“My friend offers me powers
covering merchandise, but the
slave trade is not merchandise, it is
a heinous crime against the whole
human race. Of what use are
those powers to me when the slav-
es might be under the hatches howl
ing for mercy and none permitted
to search for and succor them?
Give me, I beg of you, the right to
search for and then free the slaves!
The foregoing fervent appeal was
wrung from Lord Cecil the other
day during what was probably the
most impassioned 1
1926 meeting of the
Nations. In this appeal
cussed a conflict lasting now
years between British and French
ideals. The subject under discus-
sion was the new Anti-Slavery Con
vention and the particular point at
issue was the formal request of the
many
debate in the |
League of |
was fo- |
|
|
British Government that the Leacue |
of Nations should unite n
ing that slave trade on the
seas is a crime against the
human race of the same character
as privacy. It is regrettable that in
the end Lord Cecil was beaten by
the strong combination represented
by France, Italy, Portugal and oth-
er Powers, and thus it would seem
that the door will continue to be
left open to slave traffic under the
declar-
high
whole
ish.
The new Anti-Slavery Conven-
tion deals with “Slavery in all its
forms”—to use the official phrase.
It covers in its first section slaves
held as “property,” that is, slaves
who figure in all respects as a sale-
able property, of whom there must
be in the world today not less than
3,000,000. It is estimated that
some 2,000,000 of these are in Ab-
ysinnia, and it has been left to a
British Consul, in a White Book
issued by the Foreign Office, to use
the strongest language with regard
to the position in that unhappy
country, where he calls the situa-
tion “hell,”
Soe idea of the task before the
League in attempting to obtain
freedom for so large a number of
slaves may be guaged from the fact
that the struggle in the American
States was for the liberation of
400,000 slaves, whilst the main
struggle in Great Britain was for
the liberation of 200,000 on the
plantations of the West Indies.
But the Convention framed last
vear by the British Government and
supported with such doggedness and
eloquence by Lord Cecil, during
this session, stretches out beyond
the property-owned slaves in that
it is designed to cover debt bondage
pawning, pledging and a large
number” of borderline systems which
vary but little, if at all, from slav-
ery.
The new Anti-Slavery Conven-
tion has now been safely piloted
through the League of Nations, and
the next step must be to persuade
all Powers who are members of the
League to sign this solemn under-
taking.
Exact Time of Dawn
Important in East
Earliest careful studies of twilight
duration were made by the Arabian
astronomers, and there was a special
reason. The Moslem religion pre-
scribes daybreak—the beginning of
dawn, or morning twilight—as one of
the five daily hours of prayer.
Moreover, during one month in the
year a strict faust is observed from
this time to sunset. says Nature Mag-
azine of Washington, Hence as far
back as the Eleventh century the time
of daybreak at various seasons of the
year had been determined with con-
sid ble accuracy.
mY} ame authorities distinguished |
between true dawn and an earlier
faint illumination of the eastern sky
known as “false dawn,” frequently
mentioned in the literature of the
Orient.
The line in the Rubaiyat “Before
the phantom of false morning died,”
refers to this phenomenon.
It is the zodiacal light, supposed to
be due to sunlight reflected from tine
particles of matter entirely outside
the earth’s atmosphere. It is best
seen in low latitudes; especially In
the pure air of tropical and subtrop-
fcal deserts.
In the United States it is visible
at certain times of the year, but not
where city lights prevail,
Stone Slab Recalls
Church Built in 1717
One of southwestern New Bruns-
wick’s interesting historical spots is
Meductie, once the site of an Indian
village, Here the Indians had a
rather important fort and here the
French established a mission and in
time built up a little church. Louis
XIV was so impressed with the work
of the priests that he caused to be
shipped from France an elaborately
to be placed in the bel-
w
designed bell
fry. The church stood for many years,
during which, tradition relates, many
stirring events occurred about Medue-
tic, among which were the clashes be-
tween the English and the French and
their Indian allies.
Une day a Mr. Hay, owner of the
Meductic property, was plowing near
a clump of bushes that alone remains
to mark the site of the church and
the nearby fort, when his plow struck
a slab of slate. The stone was not
whole or intact, but enough of it was
left to contain an abbreviated Latin
inscription, in which it was set forth
that the church, dedicated to St. John
Baptist, had been erected by the Mali-
ates in the year 1717, while Father
Jean Baptiste Loyard of the Jesuit
order was in charge of the mission.
