The Shipbuilder's Prophecy.
rom the Victoria Times.

ffon ine Victoria Hines
The astonishing prediction of the Brit
ish shipbuilder who forecasts that in a
few Years the leviathans of the deep
will be half a mile long and will register
200 eco tons is not so shattering to the
imaginatian in this age of wonders as it
might have been in past era. The
breathless story of scientific achievement
during the last few years Is replete with
marvels that in an earlier day would have
been wilder than the widest dreams ever
conceived.
1t is still possible to see treading, as it
We're. the well-defined paths of the At
lantic old vessels of 5000 tons which in
their heyday were the largest afloat;
while again on a recent day of the pres
ent month a titan registering $4,000 tons
the Imperator started on her maiden
voyage across tho herring pond. 1t is
ever So The Brobdignagians of today
are the Liliputians of tomorrow and
there is no logical reason why In few
years time this same Imperator. which
now daZZles the senses with its size and
inagnificence should not be utterly eclipsed
by even more gigantic successors. While
ment is necessarily finite, mans imagina-
ton can penetrate the cloaked dawn and
dissipate the mists that mask the future,
and if he has the courage and faith to
follow, then all things are possible. The
sight of great vessel crossing the At
lantic with almost as much regularity IN
time as the stars in their courses cannot
but recall to mind the time when ,imagi-
nation and faith guided the hands that
charted the unsailed vasts for the puny
caravels of Spain.

of the Interior.
In it's finished state the new building

walls entirely of cream-colOr terra Gotta
The interior of the bank will be finished

rooms in the basement. The second floor

cling to it's old-fashoned American meal

their appearance with the modern

The opening OF Virginia Highlands just three
years ago started all this activity Since that time
it has been transformed into a healthy, growing
suburb. We chose this location because of its
remarkable transportation facilities-only IL min
utes ride from the business district because of its
delightful climate because of it's magnificent view
of the river: because of its elevation and perfect
drainage We considered these features absolutely
essential to the development of residence district
