Some workers will dread the pos
sibilities of competition by machine
men. But there is no danger. When
modem cloth-making machinery
first used England built forts to pro
tect $|e machinery fr^m enraged
workers, convinced that it would
starve them.
Those machines employed
men than ever at better wages.
Every efficient new machine
creases prosperity, especially that of
workers, by increasing man value.
With an ox team a man was worth
$1 a day. With a locomotive he is
worth $10.
Mr. Ouafi, French Arab, who beat
all runners of the world in the Olym
pic marathon, is here.
Nature, producing him, seems to
have had a greyhound in mind. His
legs are almost as thin as a grey
hound’s, and, quite tall, he weighs
only 124 pounds.
Quafi is a citizen of the French Re
public, and, although many sporting
Americans that see him run will not
know it, his ancestors of ancierrt
Arabia are ancestors whom our civi
lization and its science owe a great
deal. |
Those old Arabs were learned in
Krience, mathematics, and many lines
when our ancestors in England were
hiding In swamps and our ancestors
~In Ireland were running over hills
r and bogs not much dressed, their
great king putting aside his cloak of
raw ball hide in the presence of a
French visitor, revealing a king with
nothing on him.
Many words that we use every
day, sofa, alcohol, many terms in
chemistry, come from the Arabic.
Raymond S. Blunt, of Chicago, is
called the human time clock. He re
members where he was, what hap
pened every hour, every minute of
the last ten years. In four months
of this year, for instance, he spent
968 hours in sleep, 26 hours In
church, 363 hours at meals, 48 hours
on pleasure, etc.
That's interesting, but keeping
track of time, hours and minutes, is
not as important as putting some
thing into the hours and minutes.
For instance, the minute in which
Thomas A. Edison decided that two
messages, as well as one, might be
sent over the same wire at the
time, was more important to the
world than all the well regulated
hours in the lives of ten thou.wnd
other men.
Gold has been the unit of value
8nice men first found strange heavy
little yellow grains washed down by
mountain streams, thousands of
years ago.
Men have atruRRled for Rold and
died weeping because they couldn't
take ,t aionR, and have murdered
e*ch other for gold.
Now cold science tels you, “Gold
won’t always be the unit of value.”
Nitrogen will replace it, being the

Every square mile of air above the
