Motor-generator set m o u n t ed on crane supplying p o w er for lifting m a g n et Electricity— the Master Force in Manufacturing THE marvels of electricity have revolutionized our manu facturing industries. With belts and pulleys replaced by electric motors operating automatic—almost human— machines, many a slow and tedious process has been eliminated. The factory worker's task of yesterday is made pleasant by his command of this magic power. The Crane Company's plant at Chicago—electrical through Its 10,000 horse out—is a model of industrial efficiency. power of driving energy is brought by three small wires from a distant power plant. Then electricity drives the machinery which handles the coal for heating, cuts the steel, sifts the sand and sorts the material—in fact does everything from scrubbing the floor to winding the clock. Such an institution is marvelous—superhuman—made thus by the man-multiplying force of electricity. The General Electric Company has been instrumental in effecting this evolution. First, by developing successful electric generating and transmission apparatus to furnish economically this modern form of power. Secondly, through many years of active co-operation with hundreds of manufacturers, it has mastered the art of applying the use of electrical energy to a multitude of needs. And finally, through branch offices and other distributing channels, its products are made accessible to all.
