Tho Man Who falls.

Science 10 doing q great deal for us in

trouble OF making the experiments and
drawing the deductions and turns it all
over ready made to the rest OF us.
One who is clearly an expert, and
must have reached his conclusions
through long and perhaps painful exc
perimenting, tells how it feels to fall
from a great height. The man who
falls is not scared to death. Before he
goes far he begins to hear pleasing
sounds and to enjoy the situation.
He knowswhat is happening to him,
but is in NO haste to have 1t over. In
fact he feels that he has no urgent
business on hand and may as we'll
Keep on enjoying himself in this inno-
cent way. If people are looking on
with batcd breath he may even smile
complacen3ly az one who should say,

TO figure out these things for US it is
not too much to say that it lays on US a
