One of the most recent developments of the Westing- house Company in the electrical field, was the discovery of a new insulating material. This, it was found, was capable of being moulded into plates, rods or tubes. Bake- lite Micarta, as this substance is called, is now being used for hundreds of purposes in the industrial world.

New uses are constantly being discovered for electricity, and almost every day brings information of a new benefit being conferred on mankind by the wonderful power or property, or whatever it may be called. Three American Navy airmen, who were recently lost in the far northern wilderness of Canada, after their helpless balloon had descended near Moose Factory, were saved from freezing to death by electrically heated garments. Had it not been for these contrivances, when they were battling their way back to civilization on dog sledges, the three frozen corpses
