Inven tion Of the Ineandeseent Lamp

The process of making wire or
filament glow by passing an electric
current through it was known in the
early part of the nineteenth century.
and many experimental "iLcandes-
cent" lamps operating on this prin-
ciple were produced in Europe and
America before the year 1873. when
Thomas A.. Edison began expert
ments to develop one that would be
commercially practical. Electric
lighting was then already in common
use, but the lamps were the "arc"
variety, in which the light is pro-
duced by flame crossing the air
gap between two electrodes. These
were good for street lighting, but too
powerful for ordinary indoor use.
Edison's experiments were made in
his laboratories at Menlo Park, n. j.,
and in October, 1879. his first sue
cessful lamp was nnished. Its dis
tinctive features were a filament OF
high resistance, operating in high
vacuum, maintained by a one piece
glass globe, all joints being welded
by the fusion of the glass. The first
commercial lamps, used in 1880, had
fill; ments of carbonized paper, for
which carbonized bamboo was sub
stituted the same year. More eff
Gent and durable carbon filaments
were introduced few years later
