Telegraph operators on The DSS&A between St. Ignace and Mar-
quette, run largely through the forest, protect themselves at
night with smudges in order to hold the swarms of mosquitoes
at a respectable distance. The night lightnimg slinger at
Soo Jct., is in a particularly bad locality, and his smoke has
to be kept so thick that he looks like a charcoal heaver when
he gets off duty in the morning.
