ANY BOY CAN MAKE A MOTOR

For a thing so important to

modern life, the electric motor

is an amazingly simple device. Any bright boy can follow in- structions and make one that

will run.

But fitting electric motors to the world's work is a man's job. What makes it complicated is that every task, to be done effi- ciently, requires a certain kind of motor. Westinghouse, for example, makes over 20,000 dif- ferent types, sizes and ratings, Add to this, the thousands of

other famous electrical prod- ucts Westinghouse makes...for your home, for industry, com- merce and power stations. Add also the more than fifty years' experience of this company. You will then more fully appre

ciate the wealth of electrical

ability that is back of every product bearing the Westing- house nameplate. You will bet-· fer understand why any West- inghouse electrical product will give you the utmost in satisfac- tion, quality and performance.
