would be useless and futile, if Edison were not
able to work out a practical application of his
idea. Columbus had vision" of the new trade
route, but until he left European soil and set sail
on the unknown sea, his vision was dream. Ac-
ton must follow every idea
So also in matters of political reform. Reams
of paper have been wasted about new forms of
government and governmental administration,
but until the people have carried out these new
ideas in actual practice they were of no avail
visions" are essential Men progress only
because they think, ponder, evolve principles,
and apply them. The man who cannot imagine,
who cannot reason who cannot think is not a
helpful member of society. The men with vision
are the men that startle the world, provided they
can execute that which they have thought out in
their brains.
That's why people without vision perish

ress, but stagnation and death.

Once upon a time there lived in a
far.off country King and Queen who
were very rich and would have been
very happy had not their only daugh-
ter been stolen from them by dwarf
who was the son of an old witch who
lived in cave In the mountains
The dwarf had one day seen the
Princess when she was walking in the
castle grounds and somehow managed
to speak to her.
Beautiful Princess" said the dwarf,
"be my wife and / will give you a
house Of mother Of pearl with gold
trimmings
The Princess babe him stop and
persisted In his offer, and the dwarf
went to his witch mother and told
her the Princess would not marry
him, but that he should not live with
out her.
When the witch mother heard this
she became alarmed for her sons life,
fearing he would do himself some
harm. so she promised that either by
hook or crook the Princess should
become his bride.
And one day when the Princess was
in the garden and her servants had
left her for minute alone the wicked
old witch mother cast a spell over
her and changed her into white rab-
bit.
Then she enticed the rabbit out OF
the palace garden with some leaves
of crisp lettuce she placed by the
wall and took her off to the cave in
the woods.
But when she had the rabbit there
the witch mother changed her back to
the Princess Snd told her she must
marry her son.
She led the Princess along a path
which ran through the cave and
brought her to beautiful house built
OF mother of pearl trimmed with gold
that the dwarf had promised her. 1t
was more beautiful than the palace
where the Princess had lived.
IF you will wed my son all this
shall be yours and more, too" said
the witch mother.
But the Princess said no; she want.
ed to return to her home.
''Then you shall live here until some
one comes to release you," said the
wicked old witch mother, "and no one
will ever find you, because he will
have to come through my cave to
reach you, and that he can never do.
for will put my dog with head
at each end of his body to watch, and
no one ever gets past him"
When the King and Queen found out
their daughter had been carried away
they knew at once it must have been
the witch mother who had done this
and they did everything that they
could to find her, but years passed and
they were not able to find the place
where the old witch mother had hidden
the Princess.
One day an old man came to the
palace gates and asked for food, and
the King told his servants to bring
him in and give him food and shelter
for the night.
In the morning when he was ready
to leave the old man asked to see the
King, and the King had him brought
before him.
Your Majesty, you have been kind
