The fruits of science in the shape of technology, inventions and discoveries have fast transformed our way of life. One of the foremost symbols of the march of science is the machine. The twentieth century is indeed a world of machines. More machines have perhaps been invented in the last fifty years than in the entire course of recorded history. They are all around us and help us in a thousand different ways. There is hardly an area which is free from their presence.
Science has placed at our disposal hundreds of time and labor savings devices. In these days when servants are scare, it has really proved a boon for the working women in particular and the housewife in general. Science cleans the room, washes the clothes, bakes the bread, preserves the eatables, kneads the flour and even washes the dishes. In the office, the work of a hundred men is disposed do by a handful of machines thus saving both time and money. The electric typewriters, the Dictaphone, the intercom, the calculator and the computer perform their tasks with speed, accuracy and neatness.
