There can be no possible general re-

that time the situation may grow
much worse than u Is now. according
To DIR. Garfield.

BORN OF DESIRE FOR SPEED
Methods Of Transportation Other
Than His Feet.

Doubtless the first form of construc-
tive transportation was by the boat in
the form of a float and our earliest and
simplest conception is a man astride
log. propelling 1t by hand and foot.
The idea of propulsion stimulated to
activity the inventive genius of mans
mind, and we find him developing varl-
Gus modes Of land conyeyances. The
camel was drafted into service with
the elephant, the horse and other ami
mails. Then came the sledge, the first
of natures own construction, simply
q forked tree limb.
This gradually developed into more
perfect mode Of conveyance, being
mounted on rollers or logs, and here
began the development of the axle and
the wheel. The most primitive form
of wheel was the simple roller made
from a tree trunk, afterward differen-
tiated into a pair of fixed wheels by
trimming down the middle portion of
the cylinder In such a manner as to
leave the center of the trunk as
rotating axle.
The next step was the substitution
of two shorter sections Of tree trunks
attached to rotating axle; fiat, round
cylinders of stone doubtless were used
as well. and later a considerable adj
yancement was marked by the substi-
tuition of the fixed axle on which the
cylinders rotated.
The cart wheel similar to that which
may today be seen in the remote dis
tricts Of Mexico. Is doubtless the next
noteworthy advance. and from these
primitive steps we ind Aristotle and
other Greek philosophers interesting
themselves in these Important advance
ments and earnestly agitating the
minds of the mechanics OF that period.
In the effort to stimulate even greater
improvements
