AN OPTIMISTIC PICTURE.

In the November Cosmopolitan
Thomas A. Edison makes some as
founding prophesies He foresees
a change of conditions the world
over that will make life on earth
blessing and privilege, indeed.
This change will result naturally,
according to Mr. Edison's views, from
invention, and advancement in the
sciences. Says the Wizard:
"Think how long the world has stood,
and then recall that practically
everything we know today that is
worth while we have learned within
hundred years. Look about you
and see, how many things that were
worth while were known a hundred
years ago. And We have only just
begun to use our brains. What we
know is just an atom of what there
is to know. But we are learning
to control the forces of nature. AS
we learn, we shall transform the
world. The most wonderful
changes are coming-changes about
which no one can today do more
than dream. He points to the fact
that invention is in it's infancy and
that up to the present time only
machinery to make parts of things
has been invented, and says that the
time has now come for invention to
take step forward, and that in the
near future machinery will be pro-
duced that will not only make the
parts but put the parts together.
He predicts that the next genera
tion will see metal machinery that,
in wonderfulness of performance,
will almost rival the brain itself.
"Cloth, buttons, tissue paper and
pasteboard will be fed into one end
of a machine, and suits of clothing,
packed in boxes, will come out at
the other. Bound books will fall
from the press. The machine that
takes in lumbr, will give out finish
ed furniture".
Through the cheapness of produc-
ton, Edison sees world flooded with
food, clothing, shelter, and luxuries,
and poverty banished from the earth.
''There will be no poverty in the
world a hundred years from now,
says Edison.
"What good would it do the people
of the world if a few men should
own all these things?"
The great man had thought of
that question, but he believes that
the world will progress along other
lines as certainly and as rapidly as
it does in invention. He believes
that the governmental structure of
the world will undergo complete
