Speech". It helped deaf persons to pronounce words they could not hear. Alexander
chose the same profession, and as his father became a teacher of the deaf, he moved
to the United States and began to teach deaf children to speak. At the same time he
worked at improving his father's invention.
2. In 1866, the nineteen-year-old Bell started thinking about sending tones by
telegraph. It was then that there came to his mind the idea of the "harmonic
telegraph", which would send musical tones electrically from one place to another.
Bell was not a scientist. So he had to give all his energy and time to one thing only -
knowledge of electricity. There was little time for rest and little time to eat. Hour
after hour, day and night he and his friend Watson worked at testing and
experimenting with the telephone. Sometimes it worked and sometimes it did not.
"We have to do something to make our telephone work better," Bell used to say again
and again.
3. At last they decided to try a new kind of transmitter. The new transmitter
was set in Bell's bedroom. Watson was sitting in the laboratory. He put his ear to the
receiver and was waiting. Suddenly he heard Bell's voice. And not the voice only but
the words too. "Mr. Watson, come here. I want you."
4. It was on the 10th of March, 1876. Alexander Graham Bell had invented the
telephone.
In a few years there were telephones all over the world. In 1915, the first
transcontinental telephone line was opened. Graham Bell, a very old man now, sat in
New York at a desk with a telephone before him, while his friend Watson was
listening more than three thousand miles away in San Francisco. People were
interested what speech Bell had prepared for that great day, on which the telephone
invented by him was to carry sound from the Atlantic coast to the Pacific.
5. Bell was sitting in a big hall; there were many people in it. Everyone
expected to hear a serious, scientific speech. Suddenly everybody heard his clear
voice as he spoke into his old transmitter, "Mr. Watson, come here. I want you." He
repeated the words which he had said almost forty years ago. Much to the amusement
of the people Watson answered, "I would be glad to come, but it would take me a
week."
