electric lights We're not to be invented
for nearly a half-century.
If he had ever heard of electricity
he thought of 1t as the mysterious ana
dangerous fluid that strikes from tn.
clouds during a thunderstorm. That
it could be harnessed to do mans will
had never occurred to him.
He had never heard the clicking or
a telegraph sounder. The telephone
would have seemed as wonderful to
him as a voyage to the moon Mo-
ton pictures would have reminded
him Of black art, and the idea that
a machine could be invented whereby
man would fly above the clouds like
a bird, ascending and descending AZ
will would have seemed to him mere
L. absurd.
The modern printing press, the limo
type machine, which seems almost TO
think; the X-ray. by means Of which
surgeons may diagnose disease and
injury and lay out their work with
scientific certainty, these things were
Yet to be invented long after he was
dead. He could not imagine the au-
tomoble. now so common that they
cover the streets and roads OF all the
world.
He could not dream that cannon
would be made to throw a projectile
more than 20 miles. that repeating
rifles. revolvers and machine guns
would be invented, that steel mon
sters of the deep would speed invisi-
BILE under the seas with the power to
send giant ocean liner to the bottom
within a matter Of moments.
He lacked the imagination to see all
the thousands and tens Of thousands
of comparatively small inventions that
have come into being since his day
some of them for good and some for
evil, but all telling story of progress
of one sort or anther. Probably H.,
this he did not differ from most of his
fellow men in his day. 1t is very like
ly most of his friends agreed with him
that the limit of invention had been
reached.
He seems unfortunately deficient in
imagination and in optimism, as We
read of his letter OF resignation in the
musty files Of the Patent Office. Bur
let us not take too much JUNCTION to
our souls. We are as ignorant of
what the next 80 years may bring
forth as he was Of the future of
American inventions.
