The chimneys of Fraser are occupied every year by the nests of chimney swifts. These nests are the shape of a half saucer and the swifts fasten the twigs together and to the side of the chimney by the saliva from their mouths. Purple martins and sparrow hawks also nest in the eaves of Fraser. 1 In Marvin Grove, doves, cat birds, brown thrashers, and towkees are found. The doves build very loose, sloppy nests of loosely connected twigs and the young very often fall out of the nests.

EDISON'S FIRST LAMP And this development commenced with' Edison's first lamp hand-made, when electricity was rare. The General Electric Company was a pioneer in foreseeing the possibilities of Edison's invention. Electric generators were developed. Extensive experiments led to the design and construction of apparatus which would obtain electric current from far-away waterfalls and deliver it to every city home. With power lines well distributed over the country the use of electric lighting extended.

Street lighting developed from the flickering arc to the great white way. Electric signs and floodlights made our cities brilliant at night, searchlights turned night into day at sea, and miniature lamps were produced for the miner's headlight and automobile. While the making of the electrical industry, with its many, many interests, was developing, the General Electric Company's laboratories continued to improve the incandescent lamp, and manufacturing and distributing facilities were provided, so that anyone today can buy a lamp which is three times as efficient as the lamp of a few years age HOME STUDY Will courses in History English Chemistry jVOSXd.
