The comic commemorates the 100th anniversary of George Westinghouse's birth in 1846 with a biographical narrative tracing his early ingenuity—including his invention of a pipe-cutting tool—through his pivotal 1895 decision to develop alternating current technology and build a transformer. The story depicts Westinghouse as a considerate employer who granted workers Saturday afternoons off and chronicles his achievements in bringing the Westinghouse automatic signal system into use nationwide and advancing electrification. The issue includes seven pages of "Fun in Science" educational content featuring practical experiments with static electricity, buildable projects such as a galvanometer and electric generator, and instructions for constructing a simple crystal radio receiver.
