Behind the Scenes TARTING with the coalmines and oil wells at the bottom and work- ing up to the consumer at the top, you see the two great manufacturing processes employed in the gas business. On the left is the coal gas process; on the right, the water gas process. Step by step, the coal and oil are transformed from raw material into an invisible fuel, clean and efficient, that is piped into your home, ready for use at the turn of a valve. Here is shown the costly machinery which composes the live, throbbing system that renders gas service instantaneous and depend- able. And back of it all are the men who toil and sweat and become grimy that you, our cus- tomers, may have this essential fuel on tap with no trouble at all. How very human it all is when you see it from behind the scenes! New Britain Gas Light Company said his de- rate in every ruling by the N. B.
