Here we have thous ands of the best trained and most active brains In the world engaged in electrical Industry; thousands of universally used electrical devices were invented here. Let those brains grapple with the problems of the war and it is likely that we shall see the appliance developed that will end the war. "We are starting our warlike preparations for war years after the other belligerents let us make speed and through our in ventiveness bring about an early peace. The most deadly weap ons of the war, such as the aero, plane and submarine, are Ameri can Inventions let us make his tory repeat Itself, now that we are facing the vital necessity One Invention may save the lives of millions of men who are sore ly needed to do the worlds work.
