There are a number of ways In which electric energy can be derived from other sources of + energy. Each one of these energy transformations sets up a condi- tion which causes current to flow, that is, duce an electromotive force. e two most important methods for producing electrical ene: are "static" or "fric- tional" electricity, and that pro- duced by "batteries," which means by "chemical action." We will first discuss "static" or "frictional" sources. When a piece of hard rubber is brought in close contact with a piece of,say, cats fur, and then. separated from it two things will be noticed: vy 1. The bodies have both ac- quired new properties, and are said to be electrified. 2. A force is required to sep- arate the bodies and work is done if they are moved apart. Both bodies now have the power of attracting light bits of chaff or tissue paper. The rubber is said to have a negative charge and the fur a positive charge. These charges exist in equal amounts and taken together they tral. When these charges are on rest upon conductors they are called electrostatic charges. Electric charges may be com- municated to light bodies, like pith balls, and if these are sus- pended from silk threads the effects and properties of the charges may be studied in terms of thé motion and behavior of the pith balls, Two pith balls charged oppo- sitely are found to attract each other, and two with like charges repel each other. The force be- tween them in either case is pro- portional to the product of the charges and inversely propor- tional to the square of the distance between them. The force is also proportional directly to the value of the dielectric con- stant. If two bodies carrying opposite charges are connected by a con- ductor a momentary flow of cur- rent takes place, and the two bodies come to the same electrical condition, If the original charges were equal both bodies would he discharged. a Electrostatic experiments can be best performed on a cold day neutrglize each other. An un- charged body is said to be nav. when the air is dry. (Continued in next issue.)

The defendant hesitated but finally declared that what he had meant by his statement was thet in view of the precipitate depreciation in German money, the so-called monarch'al cir. cles were speedily finding themselves becoming impoverished. Explaining his affiliation with var. {ous irregularly organized military units, Techow described the notor- sociation for the promotion of good- fellowship. Techow admitted membership in six so-called nationalistic orgenize. tions but he declined to acknowledge he had been acting as a stool-pigeon for them, The first day of the proceedings Was oceup'ed by the court in an ex. amination into each defendant's Wdentity.

Mr. Grant fails to see why a wo- man, who now enjoys all the legal privileges of the male and yet does mot contribute one cent to the main. tenance of the community, should be exempted from the payment at least of the statute labor tax of $5. "Women vote now, so why should they not pay taxes?" questioned the assessment commissioner Monday, "and judging from the assessment lists they comprise roughly a good fourth or even a third of the voters. There are scores of them who are exempt from the income tax and so do not pay anything. Yet they re- ceive all the benefits of those who do." Mr. Grant related that he intro. duced this subject for consideration at the last meeting of the Municipal 'Association, but the others only smi}- ed at him.
