About the Book
THE NEW PROJECT Tom Swift appeared to be calm, although in reality he was about as excited over his latest invention as he ever had been about anything in his life. Im sure its going to work, Ned! he said eagerly to his chum as they neared Toms private laboratory. With my new device I hope to learn more about the planets. I want to start soon— Listen here! broke in Ned Newton. If youre thinking of going to Mars or the moon, just count me out! Ive gone with you to many strange places and have never kicked. But this— Hold on, young fellow! interrupted the youthful inventor with an amused chuckle. Ive nothing like that in mind YET! All I want to do is show you my new space eye. Ned Newton, Toms Chum Cant say as I like that word yet, Ned muttered darkly. But Ill take a look at your new jigger if youll promise not to shoot me through space in a rocket or cannon-ball! Word of honor I wont, promised Tom, crossing his heart with mock solemnity. Well, here we are. The two boys had reached the laboratory, a small building at the rear of the spacious lawn surrounding Toms fathers home and close to the extensive work of the Swift Manufacturing Company at Shopton. Tom Crossed His Heart Ill bet these shelves have more scientific apparatus on em than any other shelves in the world, remarked Ned, as his chum opened the door. Various cabinets containing hundreds of chemicals stood about. Against one wall was a huge transformer, from which the youthful scientist, Tom Swift, could draw almost any kind of electric current he might desire.

This he unlocked by twirling the dial of a complicated mechanism. Some years before Tom had constructed beneath his laboratory an impregnable chamber to safeguard his secret plans. He called it his Chest of Secrets, and guarded it well. Tom Rolled Back a Small Rug Even Ned Newton, Toms closest friend and business associate, did not know the entire contents of the massive vault. Only Tom and his father were aware of all the inventions concealed there. Some of these inventions must not be known to the world in its present state, the elder man had said. One of them was the terrible electric death-ray, capable of destroying anything in its path. Only if the United States should be invaded by an enemy power, would this be revealed. There Was a Death Ray Here it is, said Tom, joining his chum after a few minutes spent in the vault. He was carrying a small wooden box which he placed on the desk and opened. If Ned, as he leaned over eagerly, expected to see anything astonishing he was disappointed. Resting on the velvet lining was simply a round disk of a greenish substance perhaps six inches in diameter. This was mounted in a gleaming metal ring from the edges of which there projected five electric binding posts. He Was Carrying a Wooden Box Funny kind of an eye, observed Ned.... About the Author
