aetd#.
Wmt commodities the merchant has
on-hand that must be moved, why, and
what conditions exist in the market are
teite of the things the students investi
gate. After a study of the merchant’s
stock, and needs, the student returns to
,he class and is given an assignment to'
irtite the type of advertisement which
the merchant would require. The “ad”
is: thru corrected by the instructor, re-1
yi^ed by the student and given to the!
merchant, for use if be so desires.
‘“this,” explains Professor W. F. G.
tkgeber, instructor,in the course, “gives
the students actual practice. If they fol
low out “this line of work, they become
acquainted, at the end of a year, with at
Ifgst one business. They know its stock 1
aodtbe market conditions with which it
pliable to have to contend, and are thor
oughly conversant with its advertising
requirements. Thus they obtain a knowl
edge of the advertising workings of a
badness which can be applied in any
fork of this nature, whether in that pnr
,debtor business or not.”

3r What Is Vacuum?
.-W'PXHE traffic policeman did not hold up his hand and control the
I automobiles and wagons and people there would be collisions,
JL confusion, and but little progress in any direction. His business
is to direct. •
The physicist who tries to obtain a vacuum that is nearly perfect
has a problem somewhat like that of the traffic policeman. Air is
composed of molecules—billions and billions of them flying about
in all directions and often colliding. The physicist’s pump is designed
to make the molecules travel in one direction — out through the
exhaust. The molecules are much too small to be seen even with a
microscope, but the pump jogs them along and at least starts them in
the right direction.
A perfect vacuum would be one in which there is not a single free
molecule.
For over forty years scientists have been trying to pump and jog
and herd more molecules out of vessels. There are still in the best
vacuum obtainable more molecules per cubic centimeter than there
are people in the world, in other words, about two billion. Whenever
a new jogging device is invented, it becomes possible to eject a few
million more molecules.
The Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company have
spent years in trying to drive more and more molecules of air from
containers. The chief purpose has been to study the effects obtained,
as, for example, the boiling away of metals in a vacuum.
This investigation of high vacua had unexpected results. It
became possible to make better X - ray tubes — better because the
X - rays could be controlled; to make the electron tubes now so essen
tial in long-range wireless communication more efficient and trust
worthy; and to develop an entirely new type of incandescent lamp,
one which is filled with a gas and which gives more light titan any of
the older lamps.
No one can foretell what will be the outcome of research in puns
science. New i knowledge, new ideas inevitably are gained. And
sooner or later this new knowledge, these new ideas find a practical
application. For this reason the primary .purpose of the Research
Laboratories of the General Electric Company is the broadening of
human knowledge.
