W«■ u-oro' The story of umn’p acbicvei. in ( v >ry jmrt of the world is now told daily to the thousands who ‘ visit tlio L'ren World’s i'Vr m St, Louis, the (rates to which wore opened on April 30. It ts told in moving machinery, in pro cos .os tiiat aro going forward to com pletion, and in finished products; it is told again in flowers and in fruits; in the peace products of education and in the war products tiiat frown upon one from govern ment hill and those that are gathered under ennvas. From tlio golden Victory; aloft on tho Ilall of Festivals, to the silvery surface of tho lagoons, the story is told under the sunrny; it is repeated at night when the palaces seem atlarue and the Cascades are resplendent with phosphorescent fire. ' [ Thoso to whom the story is told stand spo li-bound before bohic of tho chapters. The giant prime movers in tho palaces of Machinery cause a silence tlint is nkin to fear; tho beauties of the throbbing water, tumbling fantastically down tho inolincs from the Colonnade of Stales, exercise a hypnotic spell, the wonders of the Orient, spread be fore' you by tho workers from <3hinn, Jnpvn and India, result in mystification. It > is not until you leaves tho tfair, grounds and your mind is free from.tho evor-ooouring attractions that you have time to marvel at the glory and the greatness of i,t all.

On tlio left again is tlie giant palace of Agriculture, 1 the largest building in The world, beyond which is Hor ticulture, and nfter climbing a grade, the, trainjpulls into a wooded area, to"emerge behind the Art palace on Hie iplateau of Stales. ( Down grade again you go m the vicinity of the J Visit the palace of Machinery and you see in motion giant engines, some of them occupying as much space’as does a three-story house. Their ponderous beams rise and fall, great ily wheels revolve and glittering pistons glance in and out. They arc living exhibits from all tho manufacturing centers of the world and arc supplying power to everything on the site—a power represented by forty thousand horses all pulling tagether. f Enter the palace of Education, fiere also you find life and motion. Students in a .manual training school are showing how tools arc used.

You remember having seen the tall skeleton frames of the stations w hi n molung your trip on the Intreniural. X-ray apparatus in operation, and by its side Edison's latest wonder 'in the way of a talking machine, arc other exhibits. In.another booth you see lEe process ol' electro-chemistry, by which graphite for a lead pencil is manufactured with the aid of the fluid that Franklin brought down Trom the clouds yeavp after this country wns v purchased from France. A twentieth century train is in motion in the palace of Transpor tation, yet it docs not move forward, for a system of cog wheels counteracts the tendency and the motion is therefore only apparent. Eut when you enter, as you are permitted to do, you feel the sway as if you really were speeding forward, and you hear the rumble oT the wheels. Revolving on a pedestal, in the center of this palace is the 'largest locomotive ever created. It is alive with steam, • and in and out flash the pistons. The force which is being expended Iherewonld sand it ahead sixty miles an l our on a straight- away track, but like the train the efi'ort to move ahead is counteracted by ingenious ropebanism.
