The second diagram is captioned:
"Small electron base current controls large collector electron current flowing against emitter arrow"
While I guess technically correct, it seems more likely was intended to have this wording:
"Small emitter base current controls large collector emitter current flowing against emitter arrow"
Maybe not?
