The greatest advances in this generation

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 waterwaya —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.

To the Westinghouse Company the world owes many of the greatest steps forward in electrical knowledge. The Westinghouse organization, consisting of many factories and more than 40,000 employees, has ever pressed chead 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 felds Westinghouse

has entered its name is the surest guarantee.

Britain the Prime Minister could be throws from office by the House of Communions; in America such a thing was an impossibility, for nothing but impeachment could remove an Ameri can president during his term of office. The will of the people pre- vailed in England, but in America the chief decision was founded on the thoughts of people who lived 140 years ago. Further there was much more freedom of speech in Great Britain than in the U.S.A.. where the kind of speech allowed in Hyde Park would cast an American into prison. Referring to the industrial condition of Great Britain, Sir. John said we would last a generation, and his be were beginning a struggle which

In conclusion, the lecturer said that generally speaking, the Ameri cans did rot like the British. In the more cultured class be found a good appreciation of ourselves, but the ex- planation of the attitude of the masses was to be found in their school books. the alteration of which would show af real friendship towards Great Britain. But, despite our differences. the things of which both peoples were mest prod were drawn from a com-

mon source, and those were the things we must do our best to cultivate.

(Cheers.) The world was in i par-

lous condition to-day, and he believed it would go down in chaos unless these two great peoples were able to work together; not only for themselves, bat for the welfare of the world. They and we would be committing a crime against posterity if today. because of any limitation of visión.. we allowed any serious misunderstanding to grow sp between the people of the British Empire and those of the United States of America.
