BIRTHDAY PLANNED
TO MARK EDEON'S
ELECTRIC TRIUMPH
Will Celebrate Fortieth
Anniversary of install
lation of N. Y. System.

Thomas A. Edison, who was re-
Gently honored by celebration of his
seventy-fifth birthday. will be further
honored beto . the end OF the year by
the celebration of the fortieth ami
versary of his installation of New
York's electrical system.
September 4, 1852, New York's FIRST
central station and underground sys-
tenn OF distribution were completed
and placed in operation according 10
plans conceived and executed by
Edison. By many this Is considered
Edis\n's greatest contribution TO man
kind and the principles la.I down by
him in the construction of that sta
ton formed the basis of similar sta
lions all over the world. Indeed.
there has been little deviation from
them in all the years that have fol-
lowed.
The original generating station &C.
cur led a reconstructed brIck ware
house at Nos. 255-j7 Pearl street. and
supplied a distribution system serv-
ing only one square mile OF territory.
Fewer than Sky customers wei e
supplied when the current was turned
on In the afternoon Of September 4.
Current was furnished for lighting
only. and only 1900 lamps had been
installed. Today the Edison sys-
! tenn in this city supplies 296. $50 GUS
toners. and is used for lighting g.
| 100000 lamps. for operating 6Ss.0O0
! horsepower in motors. and for heat
ing purposes to the extent Of 1880
kilowatts.
On the thirty-fifth anniversary OF
the beginning Of the service. the
American Scenic and Historic Preser-
/ walton Society placed on the site OF
the original station a bronze tablet
setting forth the facts concerning
this important event in electrical his
tory. Details of this years observ-
ance have not been completed. but IL
has been decided TO hold a commem-
orative celebration on September 4
next
! 1t is announced that the New York
Electrical Exhibition for 1929 will be
held in the Grand Central Palace,
Lexington avenue and Forty-sixth
street, from October to IL. The
show will open on Saturday morn
ing and be continued until the fol-
lowing Saturday evening, Sunday
| excepted. Last years show was held
in the Seventy-first Regiment Armory,
but the number OF exhibits was cur
tailed by want Of space. Three floors
! will be available in the Palace for
| this years show. giving space for
exhibits of every phase OF electrical
application. and the exposition will
Therefore be one OF the most compre-
hensive in the history OF electrical
and industrial displays.
