One of the few good results the present War can claim is the revival of the chemical manufacture in this country, once its home, but for many years far from an alma mater, owing to public disbelief in scientific higher education and to the sway of a donnish academicism. Now the German chemical trade with England and the Colonies should easily be wiped out. Querendum autem veruntamen an Scientia Applicata hominibus bono sit!

'It records in a full and thorough manner all the great discoveries and experiments in electrical science, and illustrates how these could be commercially applied and profitably worked. In the volumes of The Electrician will be found a most valuable collection of original papers and articles by nearly every leading electrical writer of note, and all papers read before the principal Electrical Institutions throughout the world by men eminent in the profession have been given, together with the authenticated reports of the discussions thereupon.'

Besides the above, it forms a complete record of all the important legal investigations which have so profitably occupied the attention of the Courts for the past 20 years, and it is customary for The Electrician to occupy a prominent position in them as an authority on all questions affecting the electrical profession. In this connexion it is only necessary to point to the actions which have arisen from time to time upon the Edison and Swan Patent, the Compound Winding Patent, the High and Low Tension Systems, the Accumulator Patents, the Telephone Patents, etc., etc., in which it has figured as a trustworthy authority, and has been put in evidence and accepted by the parties concerned.
