ON PIONEER TRANSPORTATION
Charles r. Lummis Contributes Article
to the October Number OF
McCIure's Magazine

Fire.
1.-THE discovery that wood on water
has the faculty of carrying not only
it's own weight but something more.
"The realization that animals might
be domesticated and made to save their
masters backs by their own.
"The knowledge that round object
rolls more easily than a square one.
"The canning of speech"
Charles F. Lummis in an article on
pioneer transportation in the October
McClure's declares that these five are
the really vital adjuncts of the rise
of civilization. He declares that men
place too much Importance on mans
heritage of civilization.
I'VE may be pardoned," he says, "for
seeing big the miracles that have
been wrought under our own eyes
steam, electricity and their peers. But
these are only parlor magic beside the
fundamental discoveries.
"Since the world began, there have
been but, perhaps, five economic In
ventors Of the first degree-and you
and do not know the name, nor with
in a thousand miles of his geography
nor within a thousand years of his
date, of any one of the chiefest four
and are shaky even as to the fifth.
"It is significant that four Of the
five fundamental inventions have to do
with transportation-and are, in fact,
it's very cornerstones.
"If railroad, telegraph, telephone and
electric car were tomorrow wiped off
the slate of man, civilization would so
on, fearful but undiminished. In a
decade we should have learned to live
and prosper and f1atter ourselves, even
as our grandfathers did, without them.
Whereas, If the props Of those five
unidentified savages were knocked
from under us, all civilization would in
continently collapse to utter bar
barism.
1.-THE fellow who first took thought
to tie his words so they should not
get away forever-with those little
black hobbies wherein they hop across
the page-he was the last essential in
ventor.'"

From the New York Editor and Pub

Among recent special numbers the
100000 Population Edition" Of the
Los Angeles Herald caps the pinnacle.
This mammoth newspaper consisting
of 100 pages was issued on Sunday
september 8, and contained enough
reading to last an ordinary person a
month. That the publication Of such
an edition was supported by advertis-
ers speaks eloquently for the Industrial
prosperity of it's section. Five years
ago The Herald began the 100000
population" cry. Los Angeles has al
ready passed that figure, hence the
reason for adopting the new 100000"
slogan.
The Herald is the oldest morning
paper in Los Angeles, having been es-
tablished October 2, 1872. Since 1t
passed under it's present management,
with Frank G. Finlayson president and
Robert NJ. Yost general manager, 1t
has made remarkable gains in both cir
cuiation and advertising patronage.
