that the discoverer of the method Of keep
ing windows clear from frost by the use
OF electric fans was +. 70. Bisbee, super
intendent of the Auburn (Afe) water
works. And It was by chance that Mr..
Bisbee made the discovery. One cold
winters day he was at work on an cleo
trical fan, and he had occasion. while the
ran was In motion, to set A. down near
the frosty window for a moment When
next he looked he found that the wind
made BY the revolving fan had started
the frost of the window. a place as large
as his hand. He became interested az
once, He moved the fan closer 10 the
window, and the effect was so striking
that Il tickled him immensely. He allow
ca the fan TO remain In the window "A
few minutes, and the result was the clear
ing away Of all the frost. leaving the
window as bright and clear as IN a fair
