There is something in man
that is beyond the possibility of
being limited. Prison bars may
confine the body, but the soul
cannot be bound from without.
You may rob a man of eye. sight,
but you can never take away the
vision of her whom he loves.
Remove him to the lonely isles
of unknown seas, yet still the
vision lives. And so it should.
Imagination was given to man to
make him enjoy more of life and
fit hims elf to make it more USE
full. 1t is to the man what the
story is to the child. 1t makes
him live in other ages and con-
ditions. 1t spurs him on to
\ ings not commonly thought
Scssi6le. ftis the only thing
about him that cannot be destroy
ed. and that is without the re-
straint of physical limitation.

The Supreme Confidence One Ensineer

The Supreme Confidence One Engineer
Had In His Work.
There is something inspiring about
the self confidence of the men who do
big things. A number of years ago
the country was horrified by the news
that Galveston had been swept by q
food. But the mud was hardly dry In
the city's streets before plans were
made for building a great sea wall to
keep out the waters. George W.
Boschke was the engineer to whom
this gigantic undertaking was in
trusted.
He finished his work while the world
looked on with interest. Later he went
up into inland Oregon to look after the
engineering work Of one of the great
railroad companies that were opening
up that vast undeveloped country.
Boschke was in camp, forty miles
from the railroad, says the Technical
World. One day an exhausted mes
senger rode in and handed a telegram
to Boschke's assistant. The message
said that the Galveston wall had been
washed away by a second furious hur-
ricane. The assistant was very much
disturbed, but there was nothing to
do but to lay the telegram before his
chief
Boschke glanced W from it. smiling.
This telegram is a lie." he said calm
~. 81 built that wall to stand" Then
he turned to the work in hand.
His confidence was justified. The
message was based on a false report
There had been storm as severe as
that which had flooded the city. but
the wall stood firm.
