edison's first invention.
When Edison was a boy of fifteen, he worked as a telegraph operator. He had to be on duty at night from 7 o’clock in the evening till 7 o’clock in the morning. But at night there was never much work and the telegraph operators usually slept. So the boss ordered each operator to give a signal every hour to show that he was awake. Edison’s signals always came at the same time at the beginning of each new hour. That surprised the boss. So one night he sent an inspector to see how well the boy was working. When the inspector opened the door he saw Edison sleeping in his chair. The inspector was going to shake the boy when he saw a block with a mechanism on the table near the telegraph apparatus. He waited to see what would happen. When the hand of the clock pointed to the hour, the mechanism began to work and sent a signal. The inspector went up to the boy and shook him. Edison awoke. He was told that he had lost his job. This story explains why the first of Edison’s many inventions was never patented.

Первое изобретение Эдисона.
Когда Эдисон был мальчиком в пятнадцать лет, он работал оператором телеграфа. Ему приходилось быть на дежурстве по ночам с 7 вечера до 7 утра. Но ночью работы было немного, и операторы телеграфа обычно спали. Поэтому начальник приказал каждому оператору подавать сигнал каждый час, чтобы показать, что он бодрствует. Сигналы Эдисона всегда приходили в одно и то же время в начале каждого нового часа. Это удивило начальника. Поэтому однажды ночью он послал инспектора посмотреть, насколько хорошо работает мальчик. Когда инспектор открыл дверь, он увидел, что Эдисон спит в своем кресле. Инспектор собирался разбудить мальчика, когда увидел на столе рядом с аппаратом телеграфа блок с механизмом. Он подождал, чтобы посмотреть, что произойдет. Когда стрелка часов указывала на час, механизм начинал работать и отправлял сигнал. Инспектор подошел к мальчику и разбудил его. Эдисон проснулся. Ему сказали, что он потерял свою работу. Эта история объясняет, почему первое из многих изобретений Эдисона так и не было запатентовано.
