Since writing the above we hear of the appearance of another "stone" and so hasten to press for fear there won't be space enough to mention all of them, they are coming in so fast now. Copyright by Brady This photograph was taken just after the alcohol tank exploded. ANOTHER FIRE At a little before 12 o'clock on the evening of March 7th, a fire was discovered in the ground floor of building No. 22. The fire, which is thought to have started from defective wiring, burned for more than two hours before it was under control. The building was of wood covered with sheet metal and can be repaired. Most of the machinery was salvaged. In this fire it was the building and not the materials which burned, while in the fire of December 9th it was the exact opposite. Laboratory Notes This Laboratory is neutral with the exception of a six-foot space around the war map. There is quite a tendency by Laboratory men to cut down expenses at home. The match box has shown the greatest saving within the last few weeks. Olson will explain the difference between yig and jig in next month's issue. The name "Edison Works Monthly" has been changed to "Our Plant," as the booklet from now on will be issued occasionally. News, etc., will be collected until enough has accumulated to warrant its publication.
