yesterday morning the official compil-

Long before any records written in
books the superstitious people Of the
East bowed down to the magical
powers of the lode stone The name
electricity" goes back twenty-five
centuries and is derived from the
Greek word "elcctron" meaning am
Der. This amber came from the north
Baltic countries and was extensively
used in the arts and for ornamental
purposes. 1t was one Of the old
Greek philosophers, Thales, who dis
covered in polishing his amber stylus
that the fossilizcd resin possessed the
mysterious power Of attracting light
bodies when rubbed. Thales argued
that the amber possessed the secret
of life but he failed to explain the
magnetic attraction
The learning OF the Greeks was
adopted by the Romans and Pliny
the elder, wrote considerable of this
strange property OF amber, lie said
the stone was rubbed into life by his
fingers. The Romans contented them
selves with this knowledge and ar
rived no further towards solution
of the problem While they believed

with an electric machine, By chance
some frog legs were lying upon

by physician for Galvani's sick wife
A spark jumped to one OF the frogs

In the course of his experiment |
Galvani hung the frogs legs on a cop |

to twitch evidencing an electric cur

forgotten or neglected when the
great Roman civilization passed ava,
and the Dark Ages succeeded The
next record Of electrical experiments
is recorded in the seventeenth century
wheH Gilbert, an Englishman, studied
the electron and the magnet and
wrote his famous book, "De Mag
nete", which was the beginning OF a
new era III electric science. Gilbert
told little that Thales had not known
but he paved the way for new
scientific development. Guericke, a
Prussian, invented the first crude
electric machine. His simple device
was a cylinder Of sulphur mounted on
an axle and turned with crank. BY
whirling this cylinder and pressing
a silk cloth against it frictionar or
static electricity was produced, This
machine gave a considerable quantity
Of electricity and stimulated further
experiments, Though many proper
ties OF the mystic force were discuv-
cred little other progress was made
during t1iat century,
The next century brought discov-
cries whici, filled all Europe with
excitement and nearly every book
printed during that time contains
articles on electricity The glass
electrical machine invented at This
time consisted Of large glass cylin-
der or disk revolved on an axle and
rubbed with leather. This machine
produced a large, brilliant spark. De-
Faye, a Frenchman sent a spark
through cord 1900 feet long and
suspending himself from a silk cord
was charged with electricity. When
his trends approached him they were
astonished to see large spark leap
from his body to theirs, Musschen-
brock tried to store electricity and
produced the Leyden jar, named after
the city where it was first used, and
received shock which nearly knock |
ed him to the floor The Leyden jar
brought alarm and terror to all whol
saw for the first time the great power
Of electricity. The books say that
Louis XIV, held an audience with this
jar Of stored electricity and that his
royal arms were jerked nearly from

were crasped it was as though the
victim was held in the grasp OF a
giant and his body was convulsed and
tossed about BY its action water was
decomposed, carbon and metals melt
ed, chemistry was revolutionized and
scientific research extended.
Galvani and Volta were followed
by coterie of brilliant men, and the
names Of Oersted, Ampere, Davy,
and WoIlaston became known
throughout the world. In 1920 Ger
