A TINY PLANT
Half a mile from on© of tho' giant towers of the electric grid in Norfolk is a country village which has its own power station and supplies electric current to some fifty cottages. The village is Tiehwell, and for years it has been producing its electric current from an oil engine and dynamo and battery oi! accumulators. Unfortunately tho battery is almost -worn out and cannot last much longer. Tho enterprising little place is thus faced with tho problem, of cither renewing its own tiny plant, or bowing to the superiority of the vast electric grid.
