THE AMERICAN OPPORTUNITY

A new light is dawning on the
American people in the way Of In
dustrIul and economic resources. The
war in Europe is causing the people
to study along lines Of independent
living There was a time In the early
history Of this country when people
depended on England Tor the books
we read. but American intelligence
oyercamo that almost a century ago.
Since then the Inventive genius
has been evolving many new COM
moditics but still looking to Europe
for certain necessary clements. Even
Mr. Edison. the most daring and
deepest thinking man perhaps Of his
age has looked to Germany for a
greater factor In his scientific actiy-
tiles.
