You and l i'm the Constitution

sented the power and authority of a
central government over the liberty
of the individual-you and land
supremacy over the individual states.
Both of them clearly express the
principle that there is no liberty with
out authority or government. and
there is no authority without liberty
for liberty without authority would
he anarchy such as has been sweep
ing certain sections of the world, and
authority without liberty of the in
dividual would be such despotism as
also, some times in the past, swept
the world.
The Constitution at first consisted
of preamble and seven articles
agreed to in the 18th year of the
independence of the United States.
"Wc" Is Essential Idea.
Let us start to read it: I'VE, the peo-
pie of the United States"-just note
that "we." it means you and l and
each of the others. That is the essential
idea of democracy-'we," the people,
getting together on an agreement for
the common good. 1t is we like
this that has featured every great demo-
cratic document since 1915, when the
British mobiles forced the King to sign
the Magma Charta, which stated the
rights of the individuals. We find it in
the compact signed by the Pilgrims in
the cabin of the Nayfiower before they
landed on American soil in 1920.
Continue to read this preamble In
order to form more perfect Union,
establish justice, insure domestic tran
quillity, provide for the common defense.

the blessings of liberty to ourselves
and our posterity, do ordain and estab-

States of America"
1t is the conviction of historians and
students of government that nowhere
statement of the purposes of govern
ment.
Right here we must understand this
fact-each of us owes a double al
legiance. A good citizen is equally loyal
to his State and to the Union Of States.
Each of these is supreme and sovereign
within it's own sphere. The Constitu-
tion as it came from the hands of our
far-seeing forefatherS was framed so
that there should be no conflict between
the two, but that instead each-the sew
eral States and the Union-might sup
port and strengthen the other.

Omar Khayyam's "cheqHer board Of
nights and days" is mechanically real
lied in the palace of engineering at
the British empire exhibition, says the
Boston Transcript. A group of model
cottages has been erected in the midst
of rural scenery. Through an ingen-
ious system Of automatic illumination
days will come and days will go, in
miniature, throughout the normal day.
The sun will rise, arrive rapidly at
its zenith, and then the brilliant light
will wane to evening New lights will
begin to twinkle in the cottages and
the miniature village. AS the dark
ness deepens the street lamps will be
lighted, more will appear in the
houses, and all will burn brightly I'M
til dawn appears again. How many
miniature years these miniature days
will represent when the exhibition
comes to an end is a speculation that
will probably interest the mathemati-
clan.

this man who had for her so strange

only by sheer force of will that she

But he was a man who had broken

wing Cast Iron Into Knots Is Now Possible

Tying gray or white cast iron In
knots is now made possible by new
process invented by Alex. X. Schlaap.
The process is very simple, consisting
in heating the cast iron to tempera-
ture shortly above the critical. tenn
perature of 1000 Fahrenheit, while pro-
tecting 1t in a muffle surrounded by
a gas fame and open at the top. AS
soon as the gray cast iron reaches the
proper temperature the muffle and its
contents are removed from the furnace
and allowed TO cool In the open air.
The whole operation requires about
45 minutes, starting from cold cast
iron.
The method has been in continuous
use for year. chiefly for the pur-
pose of softening gray iron castings
for machining purposes, and especial
ly for making automobile piston rings.
The most noteworthy characteristic
is the combination of pliability. due
tility. malleability. and resiliency. In

Comorin on a day when the weather
was fine and the sea smooth. The
waterspout formed between a russell
gray cloud and the sea nearly five
miles from the ship. At first the dis
lance between the base of the cloud
and the surface of the sea was 1900
feet and the width of the column
tapered from 500 feet at its .juncture
with the cloud to $50 feet at the sea
The vortex appeared to be a tuba
with tapering sides and a central
