SONG OF THE GOOD

7 AM Road good road fair and smooth and broad
And link with my beautiful tether
Town and Country together
Like ribbon rolled the earth from reel of God
oh, great the life of Road!
am Road; long road leading on and on;
And I cry to the world to follow,
Past meadow and hill and hollow,
Through desolate night, to the open gates of dawn
oh, bold the life of a Road
I am Road; kind road shaped by strong hands
make strange cities neighbors
The poor grow rich with my labors,
And beauty and comfort follow me through the lands
Oh, glad the life of a Road
I am Road; wise road knowing all mems Ways
And I know how each heart reaches
For the things dear Nature teaches;
And am the path that leads into green young Mays
Oh, sweet the life of a Road!
I am Road and speed away from the slums,
Away from desolate places,
Away from unused spaces;
Wherever go, there order from chaos comes.
Oh brave the life of a Road!
I am Road and would make the whole world one
would give hope to duty,
And the earth with beauty.
Do you Oh men how all this might be done:
So vast the power of the Road!

WITHIN a few weeks past
w l have been asked to
address two different
aeronauticaI societies on the Gu
rious subject of the possibilities
Of a trip to the moon.
As far as I am aware this does
not indicate an intention on the
part of any aviator to essay a
voyage to our satellite, but, at
least, it shows that the flying in
stinct is growing by what it feeds
upon, and that, having navigated
the air, practical men are giving
a little extra rein to their imagi-
nations, and wondering whether
the empire of birds marks the ul-
innate frontier of human con-
quest.
In fact the dream of going to
the moon, which, in every age,
has occupied daring minds, is
hardly more impracticable at the
present time than would have
been a project. springing up in the
mind of Balboa, of making ships
sail across from the Atlantic to
the great Western ocean which
he saw from his paak in Darlen.
But 1t is not the invention of
either the aeroplane or the dirig-
ible balloon that stimulates
thoughtful minds at the present
time to consider, half seriously,
the idea of a lunar voyage. The
success of those inventions, defy
ing scientific predictions and
probabilities only forms an in
centive. 1t turns mems minds
hopefully to things that hereto
fore they have regarded as lying
beyond the limits of human pow
er.
1t has always been so. Every
great advance has been a mar
vel at the beginning, derided or
laughed at Each one of them
has been a victorious birth of the
imagination. The greatest drag
on progress is lack of faith in the
hidden capacities of man.

ticalIy cease to exist at no very
great elevation, and cuts short
off the road of the balloon and the
aeroplane.
We must turn to something
else. The buoyant force of air
enables us to overcome the
gravitative attraction of the
earth only up to a moderate
height. Beyond that something
more is needed. I have learned
with surprise that many intelli-
gent persons suppose tHat If we
once got outside the air motion
would be unimpeded.. For in
stance, a man said to me the
other day:
Suppose an seroplane could
mount straight up until it passed
the limits of the atmosphere,
then having nothing more to i'm
pede its motion, it would go on
with whatever velocity it had
when it left the air"
In fact, this could only occur
in case the velocity of the aero
plane amounted to near;y seven
miles per second, for that veloc-
ity would be required to com
pletely overcome the pull of the
earth's attraction. Otherwise it
would fall back to the earth.
This is the reason why Jules
Verne, in his amusing story of
"A Voyage to the Moon" had his
Adventures shot out of an enor-
nous cannon. Only in that way,
he thought, could the requisite
initial velocity be obtained
A Bold Plan.
But a bold mind might, in view
of recent discoveries. speculate
on the illimitable power that may
be obtained from unlocking the
energies of the atoms OF matter.
Professor Thomson has calcu-
lated that a single gram Of hy-
drogen has within it sufficient
energy to lift a million tons a
hundred yards high! Does any
body imagine that that unlimited
store of energy is going forever
to remain uncontrolled by human
genius? We have discovered its
existence; the next thing is to
take it and use it,
Suppose we had it under con-
troll, as We shall have 1t some
time. Then reflect upon the close
relation between atomic phe-
nomena and electricity, and re-
call the familiar experiment of
making bits of pith fly away
from an electrically charged ball.
If we could construct some kind
of a car that could be powerfully
charged with electric energy we
might be able to make it fly
away from the earth as the pith
balls fly from the charged con-
ductor of the electric machine.
The Problem Solved.
Then it would be necessary to
establish a system of control by
which the speed and direction
could be regulated by varying the
charge-AND THE PROBLEM
OF NAVIGATING SPACE
WOULD BE SOLVED. I have
developed this { of course purely
hypotheticaD idea somewhat far
Their in story called "A Column
bus of Space"
Such a method would avoid all
the difficulties, really insuper-
able, that hampered Jules
Verne's plan of projectile start
ing at a velocity of almost seven
miles per second.
However, when we get the
atomic energies under control our
first efforts viii be directed to
making more money out of them,
and trips to the moon will only
begin to pay after we nave got
tired of purely earthly things.
