to admit, but must admit, is that in
some instances that is true. We
don't give our lads a chance to learn
how to do the work as well as it is
done in Germany, because the Ger

signs of the times, saw that we must
live by science, by knowledge, by
skill, by the infinite dextrity of our
hands, and that if they were toxbe
masters in the world of commerce
they must also have supremacy in
the world of knowledge.
Now, America has been trusting
to her native capacity. to her native
wits, and she has had SO much of it
that she has been able TO trust to
them for a long time, but the world
is getting a little more difficult.
Competition is becoming a little
more strenuous You can't do things
now with the fiat hand You must
do it with the skilIful touch of the
finger and American like Germany
must see to it that her young men
are skilled workmen She must see

Nevis was all alone on Thursday and
Friday. but went 10 work at once on
the preparations for the set pieces, "a

frame work Tor the pieces consists Of
big frames OF wood with bamboo strips
twisting around i'm every direction ac-

These hold fine shingle nails about
half an inch long which arc used TO
hold the lances which give the colored
lights. These lances loo klike elon-
gated fire crackers Of small size They
are dipped i'm glue and stuck on the
nails The tops of the lauces are then
connected with a fast fuse which com
municates the fire TO each lance &C al

piece To burst intC color Instantly this

and acting almost as rapidly. By
means of several of these fuses il is
possible 20 set off different parts Of the

produce varied effects.
Among the set pieces are three por-
traits, one of President TAFT. one of
Woodrow Wilson and oue of Theodore

these portraits have been made yet,
