Drop in Temperature
Explained by Culprit

Little Walter. Bowes, of Highland
Park, takes life very seriously for
small chap and when anything goes
wrong he manages to contrive some
logical explanation therefor. One day
recently he accompanied his mother
when she went to caIl upon friends
in Boyle Heights and while the Gus
tomafy gabfest was in progress Wall
Der played on the porch. and while,
running back and forth, knocked down
The thermometer.
This was q serious mishap hat the
little chap felt that it was his duty
to report it and take his punishment,
nevertheless, so he toddled into the
house and stood at his mothers knee.
.'What is it?p asked Mrs. Bowes,
guessing from Walters attitude chat
something was wrong.

Walter, "and now the temperature is

The lambs were permitted to remain

after which three were removed and

Electric Lamp Progress

In 1900 it was said that the mean
descent lamp with carbon filament
was SO perfect device that it could
never be much improved. 1t was at
about that date that industrial re-
search was inaugurated in the cleo
frical industry. Since then the eff
cheney of the incandescent lamp has
been approximately quadrupIed, and
the great increase in the intensities of
artificial lighting made possible by the
cheaper light. The new applications
created by the new lamps have had a
far-reaching effect on our Industrial
prosperity.
