AS THE EDITOR SEES IT

Someeyears ago a cumbersome contrit
vance on two wheels. made its appear
ance and created furore of ridieule,
laughter and jeers. 1t was the bicycle.
1t was called rich mans toy and a
mollycoddl les plaything and short life
was predicted. But the prophets were at
craze of its day, and now is in general
use as a practical necessity for people
who find it necessary to cover ground
hurriedly and yet can not afford the
more epensive means.
A few years later another ugly look
ing monster puffed and snorted aud rat
tied its way into pubic notice, leaving
in its wake streak of smoke and foul
smelling odors. 1t was the automobile,
and it, too, was greeted with wild grim
aces and shouts Of ridicule. The wise
and the unwise both predicted it's fail
ure as practical vehicle of motive
power. Yet the millions in use today tes-
tify to the falseness of the greatest of
our prophets.
4 few weeks ago there appeared i'll
one of our Atlantic coast ports "a great
and powerful merchant submarine. II
came from Germany and had nosed its
way beneath the surface into neutral
waters despite the wa:, hfulness of the
warships of the allies Another furore
was created and the newspapers were
filled with accounts Il the wonderful
craft that had made its way across the
Atlantic with IA largo of goods. Again
the prophets see failure ahead, but
there are those who believe the Deutsoh
land to be but the harbinger OF great
fleet of underwater craft capable of con
III ting commercial relations with Other
countries irrespective of blocka.les OF
enemy ships of war. l., ..4r
These few instances but Illustrate thu

harm to take just one peek. Ills
