careful directions as to how the light
producing bacteria may be obtained
and grown. These bacteria emit light
that is produced entirely by themselves
altogether independently of any ex,
traneOus light source; in fact, they
grow and produce'light better If kept
entirely In the dark. Their efficiency
as light producers is extremely high,
and were it possible to carry out on
a commercial scale the process of light

tremendous step forward would be tax,
