This Big Generating Plant Lighted "Roads of Destiny*' WHEN Goldwyn Pictures Corporation went out into the desert to shoot scenes for "Roads of Destiny," a lamentable lack of public service corporation supplying that district with illumination was encountered. But that didn't bother Goldwyn for a minute. Louis Kolb, the corporation's chief electrician, had provided for this contingency by taking a trailer along, and on this trailer was mounted about $4,500 worth of juiieproducing mechanism in the form of a 100 horse power six-cylinder gasolene motor connected by a flexible link coupling to a 500 ampere, 100 volt, two-wire, interpole, compound wound direct current generator. "Roads of Destiny" Well Lighted. These, together with a water-cooling system, a switchboard, a starting motor and battery were mounted upon a castiron base, constituting a private electric plant that eliminated all lighting difficulties and made "The Roads of Destiny" well illuminated thoroughfares. Mr. Kolb is enthusiastic regarding the efficiency of the system and predicts that such apparatus is bound to become popular. The illustration gives a good idea ot the installation ot motor, switchboard and giant radiator. The Motor Generator Trailer Used by Goldwyn. This outfit furnished the light for filming "Roads of Destiny.'
