ELECTRICAL WAVES MARE

Dr. Perrine, explained that' in-
" stead of your speech turning into
electrical waves and back into
speech as is done in telephone
comnntnicatioe, the process is re-
versed and• "you have electrical
waves that make speech."
The equipment, known as a
"Vodcr," to a layrnan looked';. as
• ' though it consisted of a deek-
like affair set with keys and small
bars, a table with sinall electrieal
equipment; and two tall cabinets
Which looked I like' what you see

CALLED A "WIDER"
Miss Anna Mae Swenson sat at
the desk, pulled and pressed keys
and shoved a bar with her foot.
and out from speaker came,,the
human voice, a voice that could.
be inflected and modulated and
could even sing.
' VOICE, IS'•CLEARI
r• While the voice sounded a little
like it came out of. the end of
'tube it was clear enough and the
vowels and consonants were fully
pronounced.
The possibilitiesof the "Yoder"
have ,yet to be , exploited. and at
the present time themachine is
purelyv in the expet'iinental stage,

The advantage of the voice ma,
