THE GREAT FUTURE.

The sweetest song has not been
sung,
Nor has the loudest bell been rung;
The brightest jewel still lies deep,
The fairest rose is yet asleep:
The greatest ship has never sailed,
The highest mountains are unscaled;
The largest house of brick and beam
Is but vision of a dream.
The swiftest locomotive, too
Has yet to show what it can do.
The richest mine is still unknown,
The airship's but monstrous
drone;
The telegraph is still afraid
To span the wide world without aid.
Point out the man who'll say to you
All the electric mind will do.
The greatest city still shall rise
All. who will solve the mystic skies?
Niagara's falls remain unchanged,
The arctic's spheres have not been
gained;
The steamer, submarinely piled,
is anchored fast in fancy's tide.
The worlds great plans have not
been heard
And Peace. today, Is but a word.
Think, then, We men of little worth,
Who say there's naught to do on
earth.

FLOUR SIGN BIGGEST OF KIND.
Washburn-CrOsby Company Tops
High Elevator With 'GOld
Medal Beacon.

In more superstitious age when
legend flashed forth against the
sky as it did last night in incandes-
cent letters over the west side mil
ling district, the people would have
bowed down in awe and accepted it
as command.
In erecting an electric sign over
its concrete grain elevator on the
river front the Washburn-Crosby
company has created a suggestive
picture that is likely to burn itself
en- the memory when oEce seen, the
words Gold Medal Flour" in eight
foot letters outlined in the dark
with tungsten incandescent electric
light globes.
After first erecting the highest
concrete elevator in the world, an
advertisement which is effective in
the daytime because of the towering
proportion of the building, the
Washburn-Crosby company has sup
plemented it with sign to be read
at night when the building is invis-
ible. This sign is probably the lofti-
est of its kild in the world.
1t required the services of a steel
erection company six weeks to erect
the sign, which is in reality a double
sign, one half at either end of the
top of the elevator, easily read from
both up and down river. From
trains approaching from either di-
rection the glowing words will stand
cut with startling distinctiveness
and they ars high enough to be dis
tinguished from practically all
points of the compass.
