SUNLIGHT ARC FUR MOV|ESIS
 ELECTRICAL

A very serious drawback in getting exteriors for motion pictures in the east is the uncertainty of the sunlight, es- pecially during the short winter days. Fog or mist may so obscure the sun that it becomes impossible to secure pictures out of doors. To remedy this new sunlight arc has been invented which makes it possible for director to get exteriors in any kind of weather
 The new sunlight arcffs mounted on an automobile so that it is an easN matter to transport it and to station the arc light wherever it is needed Then with the aid of this artificial sun light, the picture can be made even though rain is pouring down.. The sum- light arc is not sold outright but is rented to motion picture companies at a pretty stiff price per day. Even SO, it is a big time and money saver en- abling motion picture companies in the East to work steadily without depend ing upon uncertain sunshine and con stantly changing weather conditions.

GREAT BRITAIN WILL UTILIZE
 TIDAL POWER

There IS unuer serious consideration in Great Britain the possibility of utilizing on a large scale some of the tremendous power of tidal movements. It is proposed tc enclose the estuary of the liver Severn, where the rise and fall of tke tide during certain seasons of the year is almost as grea. as in the Bay Of Fundy, by construct ing dam across the river some two and half miles wide. In the dam are to be located a number of turbines and generators having a total capacity in excess of one million horsepower. It is proposed to distribute half this great amount of power for com nfercia1 use and to employ the excess to pump water into high-level reser- voir situated further up the stream. The reservoir water supply is to be drawn upon to operate other turbines and generators when the difference in water levels above and below the main dam is reduced by the rise of the tide.
 A very large nvestment-estimated at from $40. 0.000, coo to four times such sunl--wtH be necessary for the under taking, but even if the larger amount Is needed it should be @ very proff- table venture, the economies result ing being of great varue to the coun- try. 1t is said that the installation would effect a saving in coal consump- ton of from three to four million tons Of coal Der year and allow current electricity to be sold at a small frac- tion of the present rates of steam operated electric plants.

Lar1p Socket Range
 Is Latest Thing

A new lamp socket range arrived in New York recently and will make it's on Broadway. The term lampsocl1et means that it will operate on 660 watts of current and that no special wiring is required.
 This new model has an electric fire less cooker at the right with two in the fireIess way. An entire meal can be prepared in advance, a. big ad- vantage on matinee days, placed in the cooker given 30 minutes of high heat and left, after detaching the plug, or the cooker can be put on low heat 40 watts, which will maintain an even temperature.
 On the left of the cooker is an alum inum-lined oven with two open coil heating elements, one in the top and one in the bottom, using eco watts each, but the two clements cannot be operated at the same time from a lamp socket However, it is claimed that the oven is so well made that 660 watts only will heat it and a ther- mometer registers the right degree for baking.
 On top of the range and above the oven is an aluminium griddle with the heating element wired in or sealed IF in the solid bottom. This also takes 660 watts and is used for pancakes, or for frying bacon and eggs for the morning meal.
 Thus this range is designed to oper- ate from any convenient lamp socket with an oven for roasting, baking ol broiling, with a fireless cooker for al long time cookery and the aluminium griddle for the short time processes but only one of the heating element. can be used at a time.

Electricity touches every phase of human activity. We find it every where we go. in the home, at the office Or store, in the shop, in recreation and amusement, on the street and on the road, in the heavens above, on tPe earth beneath and in the waters un- der the earth and every time we meet it we find that it is being used 10 make things cleaner, safer, better, cheaper and more productive. It makes things possible which were impossible before it's advent.
 Without electricity, power generation in great units such as we have today could never have been achieved; with out electricity all but a small portion of the worlds water powers would have continued to run to waste; with out the tiny spark so easily obtained by electrical means the gas engine would never have been and conse- quently there would be no automobiles, no aeroplanes and no submarines.
 Only through it's mysterious rays have we been able to utilize radio ac- tivity. If the wireless had done noth- ing else but make safer travel by sea it would have been one of the greatest boons humanity has ever received, but there are other great benefits which are well known in the X-ray field and in the treatment of diseases. Many manufacturing processes have been wonderfully improved and in science and in the fine arts electricity has be- come almost indispensable.

Four Appeals For WindolD Display
 Considered Basic

The four basic appeals in window
 displays are: Light, color, form aud
 motion Perhaps nowhere are these
 appeals so potent or so striking as in
 the window displays of the big shops up and down Fifth avenue and on
 Broadway, New York.
 Coming up the avenue at 42nd street, in g. second story window ones atten-
 ton is arrested by the lifesize figure of a tiger outlined with electric lamps. One uplifted paw turns a huge TO- tating disk, a tame occupation for such royal beast, but the disk is really ea price card and the point of interest las one sees in following the tigers paw. Here the four basic appeals. light color. form and motion, are em- phasized prominently.
 Farther down the avenue, a window showing new spring gowns has one gray gown in niche on pedestal.
 The color scheme is a kind of silver gray and blue. This is emphasized by the. lighting. Two carved silver lamp posts supporting lamps with blue color screens attract much favorable atten- ton and direct it to the gown in the niche.

He is sent to arrest a band of fur smugglers on the northern border of the country but there he encounters an adventure which takes him to the deserts on the border of the southern part of the United States. It is thrilling example of the well known fact that Royal Mounted man never forsales the trail of an offender ot the law, and when the statement IS made that the man he seeks is the murderer of his best pal, and that the girl he loves is a member of the band he seeks, the nature of the suspense and excitement incident to this drama may be partly realized.

NEW |NvE ENTION
 IN ELECTRIC
 EGG BEATERS

From Chicago comes word that an engineer inventor has made something new in the way of an electric egg beater in two sizes. The blades look just like the blades of an ordinary beater and measure 51a inches Tn the household size while in the commercial size the blades measure 2 inches. AL any rate it is guaranteed to beat eggs or to whip cream or make mayorrsslse because the inventor has tried 1t Tn his own home.
 It Is fitted with a small motor such as one sees on the whippers and beat CTS at soda fountains. It weighs "A pounds and is especially designed with a control lever which starts, stops and regulates the speed of tEe paddles as required. A practical housewife may ask: Just how do you wash those blades after using the beater?' One simple movement detaches the motor from the handle so that the beater can he washed without injury to the motor.

 THREE E-|N-ONE
 FOR YOUR HOME

Once upon time a table was a table and it did not pretend to be anything else. That was about 1880, when fur niture was heavy and elaborate. but in the year 1920. when furniture assumed more simple lines, table was not all ways table, no matter how simple it seemed to be. Its very simplicity was often deceiving. For example, you may be visiting a friend who lives in Ia city apartment where space is at 3 premium.
 An attractive table stands in one corner of the living room It seems to have two simple drawers in front but behold they open in one piece like a small door and there is an inside rack containing paper. envelopes and a tiny bottle of writing fluid.
 "Ah, ha,'' you exclain, this is no table but Q desk" and you sit down and begin to write home, when the hostess runs in hastily, saying: Would you mind letting me get a spool Of silk from the work box?'' and lifting the lid of the little box below the rack a work box comes to view and you sus- pect that this simple table is more than q writing disk.
 "A work box suggests a sewing ma chine" we say, 'and ten to one it's something electrical.s Sure enough when our hostess reaches down into
 the inner depths Of the table she brings up the head of sewing machine oper- lated by a small electric sew motoe l"Convenient,r she induires, lis it not" ! Certainly the problem of what to dt with the sewing machine Is solved il
 the new electric three-in-one. and il lthe new fourteen pound portable cleo }tric sewing machine that has met witt such instant favor on the part of wom en who like to do their own sewing.
