Westinghouse and Electricity
The greatest advances in this generation
have been marked by the progress of electrical power. We have seen transportation revolutionized, the wheels of industry turned with new life, our homes lighted with brighter, "cleaner lights; our household tasks lightened and made pleasant.
By electricity we are harnessing for our use the great natural power of our waterways we are making our lives cleaner, healthier, happier.
The rapid strides in the great electrical industry have been marked by the leadership of mammoth electrical institutions.
น
To the Westinghoure Company the world owes many of the greatest steps forward in electrical knowledge. The Westinghouse organization, consisting of many factorici and more than 40,000 employees, has ever pressed ahead of the crowd.
Genius, years of research, painstaking labor in perfecting, have gone into the finished product which bears the name Westinghouse.
Westinghouse makes all things electrical, and in whatever Sekda Westin
has entered its name is the surest guarantee."

"It is therefore impossible to establish a simultaneity of events. And similarly, and in consequence, it is impossible to establish a measure of time.
