Chickamauga Park Ga, May 81
The United States government has here
in operation one OF the largest acety-
lene gas plants in the world. The mill
tary post at the entrance Of the histor-
ical Chickamauga battlefield where
thirty thousand Union and Confederate
soldiers were lost in the memorable
battle Of Sept 10 and 20, 1863, contains
about one hundred buildings. the
seventy-fye principal ones Of which are
lighted with acetylene. To accom-
plish this six and one-half miles Of
mains and two miles OF service pipes
are In use, while sixty-fve street
lamps brilliantly illuminate the ave
nues Of the post.
In 1903 the War Department in.
stalled a test acetylene plant at Fort
Meyer, Virginia. The results were
so gratifying and the superiority
OF the .illuminant so evident that the
government. March 20. 1904, placed
the contract for the Chickamauga
plant, in which every citizen Of the
United States should have his pro
rata Of pride.
But the government has not con-
fined its acceptance Of acetylene to
this military post. Since becoming
satisfied of the efficiency, superiority
and economical advantages Of this
particular illuminant. the United
States has installed a number Of
plants in Indian schools and other gov
ernment institutions.
Acetylene gas is one Of the simplest
as well as the most perfect of artificial
lights. 1t is made by the contact
of water and carbide. Ia manufactured
product for sale at nominal price,,
is absolutely safe and gives a beau
tiful white light soothing to the eyes
and nerves. 1t can be produced any
wherein the farm home the village
store, the town hall, the church-and
is so easily maintained as to
be practical for all classes.
1t is matter for national congratr
lation that in beautifying SO historic
a spot as Chickamauga, nothing bur
the best, including the lighting sys-
TEN, has been deemed good enough
for the American people.

The PestIferous Pat

No place is sacred to the rat. From
a sleeping man to an elephant there is
nothing which he will not eat. Rats
have eaten their way through a live
pig and bitten off the legs of living
birds. Some years ago the keepers or
the London Geological Gardens could
not understand what made the ele-
plants SO restless, so uneasy on their
feet. Investigation showed that at
night the rats came out and gnawed
on the tx skin growing about the
nails on the monsters feet. Appar-
emily they must have fancied the horn
OF the rhinoceros, too, for regularly
the keepers used to find dattened rats
where the rhinoceros had been lying.
