I T is curious fact in civilization that there
1 are people in nearby country to-day
who have never visited the nearest city who
have never seen a street car. motor vehicle
skyscraper, telephone; who perhaps have
never even heard of any Of the marvellous in
ventons OF the past two decades, and who
would scout your lying if you told them about
airships and submarines. Mrs Susan Heff-
ner, aged seventy, has just visited Columbus
Ind, and for the first time in her life has
beheld the wonder OF a street car actually
running by electricity. Not long ago a
''hfer' was released from Sing Sing after
forty years in the dark. and newspapers of
New York escorted him through the TWEEN
tleth century, which opened up to him the
wonders of things he did not know
1t is impracticabe, of course but how
would it be if every town and city in America
could arrange for a Wholesale invitation 10
