Specializing on the development of
some popular convenience invented for
the comfort Of mankind is hazardous
and bad guesses are shown many
times, as was the case with John e.
Randall, consulting electrical engi-
neer, who said SO years ago when the
incandescent lamp was brought out,

lamps in use increase 25 per cent
each year.
He looked into the future and in
1920 estimated there would be 10000
600 lamps in use. Last year, aside
from the smaller lamps for special
purposes, there were 315,000,00 lamps
made in the factories of this country.
