Synopsis
Excerpt from Gilbert Signal Engineering: Complete and Thorough Instructions, in All Forms of Signaling for Boys
To do big things, just as men do who are experts in a certain kind of endeavor, I believe is the greatest wish of every boy. I know when I was a boy it was very interesting to me to find out all I Could about electricity, Chemistry and other practical subjects because they held my attention. There was all kinds of fun in this for me. Whenever I got working on my experiments I had the greatest amount of pleasure. Let me tell you, too, I was a happy boy when I had completed my work and could show it to others.
I remember how I used to watch army men at signal practice. It was mighty fascinating to see them at the camp with their apparatus and to Observe the methods they used to send messages. It looked hard, but when I thought it over it seemed very easy.
