He induced it to strike the metal lightning rods which he invented- But only in recent years have scientists actually studied lightning They have made many of their discoveries by strangely enough manufacturing it artificially in their laboratories At the New York world's fair nousands of spectators have held their ears and watched artificial lightning bolts roar past 'their unbelieving eyes The experiment is a simple one A number of condensers which act like storage batteries are charged with a heavy voltage—perhaps 50000 volts each Then a switch connects the condensers so their voltages add up to some 10000- 000 volts Such a charge leaps across a gap"tn the electrical circuit with a terrific ex- iii" ' 4 model events will be the fourth -
