The graphophone is located on the desk of Col. Benj. S. Montgomery who is in charge of the telegraph and telephone service of the Presidential office and through whom all the war news came to the President. The instrument is put to some strange and interesting uses showing that die graphophone has great practical value as well as power to entertain. Its various uses are best described in the words of Col. Montgomery who writes: "The graphophone is placed in the back of my desk, near the telephone and close to a resonator which holds a telegraph sounder, thus within easy reach at all times for any kind of work it may be called upon to do. To illustate: if an important and confidential communication is talked over the telephone it is repeated, while being received, into the graphophone, if a telegraph message is ticked out on the sounder, and a telegrapher is not at the moment convenient, the speed regulator of the graphophone is adjusted and the little machine at once becomes an expert operator and records the telegram. In short, for my work it is a first-class stenographer and telegrapher combined. It is run by the same electric current which supplies the light and for this reason it is always ready when wanted. Unlike many stenographers and telegraphers and not a few clerks it has no attacks of indigestion, sick headaches or restless anxiety to get away to a ball game or meet a ' cousin from the" country." It is never late in the morning, nor in a hurry to get home in the evening; it is never "shaky"' from smoking cigarettes nor "all run down" and "worn out" by a bicycle ride or a Sunday school excursion the day before. It is almost human in its efforts but not subject to the "ills that flesh is heir to." Of course it "talks back" but was never known to say more than was necessary.
