Light and enlightenment 60 hand in hand-they
are both products Of one another.
Civilization produces better means ofightng and
better lighting produces better civilization.
Civilization can be almost accurately measured by
the amount and quality Of light.
A fairly good steady light has only been available
Tor about so years and in those SO years the world has
progressed more than for thousand years before.
In the Dark Ages ages that lacked all kinds of
ight-ileracy was almost universal and so was misery
and squalor and bad government-the common people
worked all day-they could not learn for lack OF light
at night general knowledge which means cviliza-
ton, did not exist in those days. did good light
A good light adds just enough hours to day to
enable one during those few hours to progress and to
draw ahead without those few evening hours of mental
activity, made possible by good light civilization would
be handicapped and progress halted
Good light, cheerful, steady ample bright, will
help us grow mind and heart.

ted to mark this point, which was
awarded to the S. J. c. I. team by
the referee, in accordance with rule

lows: If a player while trying for
