WONDERFUL ACHIEVEMENTS I F there is a fact more re wonderful won erful than our IF existence and the existence of the world around us u it is the marvelous marclous development of human intellect int We are arc re living in an age i to which l ich nothing cems ms impossible I We lre e are just about to conquer the air and make flying an everyday occurrence By mean of wireless g telegraphy telegraph we are about to annihilate distances It is proposed to equip two ships for a tour around the world worl and an it itis itis itis is confidently expected exp that they the will ex exchange ex

Ve arc search searching searching ing out out the invisible and studying the infinites infinitesimal infinitesimal infinitesimal imal that swarm in a drop of water If reports arc true a young physician has just succeeded in photographing microbes and in n time it is supposed we e can see sec in liv living li ling t ing ng picture shows blood bl d corpuscles jostle with one another in the capillaries of a frogs foot phagocytes devour red red globules and still stillmore stillmore stillmore more wonderful scenes from front the world of I the microscope But science is not nt content with this It goes I beyond 1 the Hie limits of matter and experiments r with the thc very ether of space in order to learn learnt t the secrets of creation and solve sole the riddle of the universe And Ald even in this direction some wonderful discoveries have been made and equally wonderful deductions suggested Sir Oliver Lodge Lo ge for instance has arrived at the conclusion that ether is a very cry solid substance of which matter is merely a modification and andin andin 1 in which it floats as it were as a n very light et gauzy cloud loud of vapor apor in inthe the air I The results achieved by human intellect are arc areso 1 so wonderful that it seems but natural to ex expect 0 pest still further development It seems nat natural natural natural ural for instance to expect that some day we may grasp the wonderful secret of nature which we call gravitation And when that secret is unveiled who aho knows but that it is a force that can be harnessed Maurice r rinck linck inck has said III It is perhaps tractable trac able and docile even een as was wast t 1 Light and electricity It is is perhaps wholly spiritual and depends upon tipon a very simple cause which the displacing of an object may reveal r i to us liS The discover of an unexpected property t cf d matter analogous to that which has just disclosed to us the disconcerting qualities of radium may lead us straight to the very sources of the energy and the life of the stars and I from that moment mans lot would be changed a and the earth definitely saved would become I eternal It would at our pleasure draw closer I to or further from the centers of heat and f light it would flee from warmest suns and go goin gon goin in n search of the unsuspected fluids forces and an lives in the orbit of vision and inexhaustible I I worlds i It That is of course e a fanciful flight of I j 1 thought But is i it unthinkable in view of the ij stage of development already reached that I human intellect will twill at some time understand fully ully the forces that operate through the ether etherI ji I I I of space and through which worlds are held tl 1 in in their orbits If not it is is tot not r unthinkable 1 1 r I t ti t I that the very ery law of gravitation may be i I brought under control It should be remembered however that i Truman human progress is dependent upon certain I II conditions In past last ages 0 barbarians have in invaded III I 1 l k the p parts arts of the world work I that tut were furthest i advanced and wiped out almost every evidence 1 of civilization ci in blood Ancient civilizations I it a i in n some respects superior to ours perhaps J have have been swallowed up by barbarism as At Atlantis AtI I f lantis antis was engulfed it Is said in the ocean The fhe fact reminds us of the necessity of watch watchfulness ii t ess Our civilization c may not be be in danger t from Asiatic hordes but it may be from the I t ti interval internal defects of which the symptoms are arc i apparent And unless we succeed in establish establishing establishing ir ing justice between nations and between the classes of which nations consist unless we I succeed in keeping virtue and morality as a our ur P most precious assets development will twill be re rc retarded retarded Larded Civilization will be destroyed In Infidelity 1 fidelity and immorality often go together and history proves that they arc are destructive c of liberty and therefore of civilization i But there is very little li reason for misapprehension misapprehension hension of the future Mans Jans destiny is on onward onward ward His education is in the hands of One who never ne er fails and for that reason faith looks loo s t forward to the perfection of man in intelligence intelli intelligence intelligence gence as well swell as in wisdom and power until i he shall be able to regulate even een the course of worlds If man ratan is eternal there can be bno no end l to his development Why do the Central American
