Observa-tions are taken for galvanometer curves, and for both arcand incandescent lamp curves, and for the purpose of determininglamp efficiency. Thus the student, while studying the principles and theoryof electricity, is from the very first, becoming thoroughlyfamiliar with the practical side of electrical engineering. Thesuccess of our students in obtaining desirable positions, atteststhe value of their training. An el
