GREENSBORO llllilllr^ By K. P. Frederick The power and heat which go to waste today would light-every home, run every factory, keep the street car systems and railway systems going, run all the automobiles and then there would be some left over. This power comes from the sun’s light, and is only awaiting some Twentiet hcentury Franklin to dis cover how to utilize it. Every boy and girls in the coun try knows how the ordinary rays of the sun can be so concentrated by an ordinary reading glass or watch crystals as to bum holes in paper, light matches, and the like.
