bARES CIRCUIT
MYSTERY TO
USERS
Expert Tells How Current
Cooks and Gives Power,
Then Returns ''Home.

Circuits. electrical circuits-mys-
terious terms to- the uninitiated.
What are they. anyhow?
When electrical folk get to talking
their jargon. the outsider feels like
a novice trying to learn the secrets
Of some awe-inspiring high and
mighty order of mumbo-j Jumbo.
But a little further exploration
Into the mysteries shows that they
are really quite simple after all.
Most Of usthave a vague idea abou
an electric current. We know that
the force which we commonly call
electricity flows In q current. And
this current never begins In space
and ends in space, but always takes
the form Of q circle. The circle is
In scientific pariance. q circuit.
Copper wire usually forms the path
for the current to travel over-the
electric race track, 90 to speak
because this metal IN an especially
good conductor Of electricity.
Grill II An Example.
Take the use of an electric grill
for an~example. A huge dynamo To-
Gated In q power plant somewhere
In the city generates the current for
the grill, which is carried through
4 maze of wires to che house.
Here is another network of wires to
all the rooms, 80 that the electric
ity Is available in each. We know
that we must screw our cord into
an electric light socket and plug one
end into the grill into order to OBJ
tain the current to heat the grill.
What happens when we DO this?
The socket contains the ends Of
two wires. It's really a break Of
the circuit. The cord you use for
your grill 10 made up Of two wires,
twisted. Screw one end Of your cord
into the socket: plug the other end
into the grill. and you simply COM
plete a circuit. The current comes
in on one wire now, and passes
through the twists and curley.cues

dynamos at the power -house.
Back to Home and Mother.
For, remember. electricity must al.
ways get back "to home and mother"
sooner or later-it must complete
It's circuit, which begins and ends at
the dynamo.
The switch, which was mentioned
as a possible interference, with this
routine, Is simply a means of break.
ing the circuit. That is, when you
turn off" the grill by pressing q
button what you really do Is to make
a gap in the wire connection. You
break the circle-the current ceases
to pass over the wire.
So you see that the mysterious

A lot Of smart young men are buy

they are not buying them for their

such q thing-they are buying them
for their own use and are finding

Believe you me. as they say H. on
Broadway. an electric iron comes In
handy when q fellow starts to rush
into fresh clothes Of an evening and
finds that the trousers are wrinkled.
He may only have worn them
once since they came from the tailor.
but lounging about has taken the
freshness out Of them. even though
they were carefully hung in tho
closet. In such emergency. few
strokes Of the electric iron chases
the wrinkles.
Same with ties. A reasonable good
tie costs lot Of money these days,
and unless there 10 some good lady

You pay for what you need,

enc has said. That is so true that
& deserves q second thought.
Three Of the essentials which ev-
cry housewife needs-which she
must have-are means OF doing the

who does the family washing pays

gives % much of her strength that
later there are hours and days OF
Alness to be charged up to this &C
count.
Take, a. q simple example. the
effort which goes into ironing with
the old-fAshioned sad iron. In walk
ing to and from the stove, after hot
irons, the woman doing the average
weeks ironing makes at least sixty.
five trips averaging fifteen feet
each, It is estimated. This means
that in q years time she walks ten
miles. carrying the heavy iron. The
amount Of lifting which she 10
obliged to do in the course OF q
half-day's ironing is also astonish-
ing. She will lift the six-pound iron
about three inches fifty times In an
hours ironing. The sales Of elec-
trio ironing machines in 1922 are
estimated to total $4,000. The
amount of heavy lifting which these
ironers are saving women Is COM
puted. according to laws OF physics.
to be as much as II $4,000 women
each had to carry a ton OF coal up
stairs from the basement to the
kitchen, scuttleful by scuttleful.
Added to the price paid In actual
muscular hard work are the dis
comforts and annoyances Of sweep
Ing and washing dishes and clothes
and doing the ironing-to say moth
ing Of the woman's time. There are
90 many ways in which the electri-
cal appliances save on "the price
