As soon as the old steam plant is

astronomy department and classes j
in the strength of materials will!
take over the new lab us soon as
the two old boilers now occupying
the space are removed.
At present Professor McAlist*(r’s
department has no laboratory of its
own. “Wo use the big and wide I
outdoors, especially at night, for (
most of the astronomy,” ho says. |
“And get along the best we can |
in the rest of the work needing lab I
space.” j

Hundred Watt Globe Uses
Energy of a Worker
PRODUCTION COST LOW
Electricity Supplied For Two
Cents & Day
“To furnish power for an ordin
ary ono hundred watt electric light
requires the energy that could be
furnished by an average strong
working man,” was the statement
made recently by O. F. Stafford,
professor of chemistry.
Professor Stafford and the inter
viewer were discussing electricity
in general and its energy equival
ent in actual labor when, pausing
for a moment, the head of the
chemistry department pointed to an
electric light in the room and asked,
“Do you realize the amount of real
work represented in that light?”
Strength is Great
“It requires what is equal to the
strength of an average working
man to furnish enough power to
burn a hundred watt lamp, such aiC
that. And to think that you, and
I, and all the rest of us pass by
an electric lamp night after night
and fail to think of this,” he said.
“The power used up in one of those
hundred watt lamps is furnished for
less than a quarter of a cent an
hour. I wonder what working man
would work for two. cents a day?
■Such is the amount represented in
an eight hour’s burning of any hun
dred watt lamp, as the University
buys this electrical energy,” con
tinued Dr. Stafford.
» Process Explained
He briefly explained the process
over which the electricity travels
to reach the lamp. Working back
wards', he traced its course from
the lamp through the wires, and via
transformers, to the power house.
He told of the dynamo and how it
works. “This is what supplies the
electricity,” he declared. “And it
is the power required in turning a
dynamo that I refer when I make
the comparison of a man’s working
ability with the energy consumed
by one a hundred watt lamp.
