The device was installed in &' school room, the equipment includ- | ed a broadcasting unit and each stu- dent's desk was outfitted with ear phones. Instead of traveling through air the sound impulses of the voice are | transmitted by wire and the device | cnables the pupil to hear both his | own voice and that of the teacher. Until yesterday the youngsters had been unable to pronounce even | the simplest of words. For the flrsl! halt hour after the device was in stalled they practiced talking. At first the sounds they made were un- 1 t cnunciation became clearer and all | of them soon were able to make | themselves understood and to under- | g stand the teachers. 1 The set requires & minimum of | electrical power to operate. It is ex- | pected to bring drastic changes in |n the teaching of the deaf. City Items M. Garfinkle, gen. ins, moved to Room 5, 181 Main St. Tel. 5636.— | advt.
