Item: For centuries men dream
ed Of flying. But experts were
skeptical. The French astronomer,
Joseph Lelande, demonstrated that
flight was a scientific impossible
ty.
Item: After George Stephen
sons locomotives reached the
speed of 80 miles an hour, the
Munich College of physicians is
sued a warning against railway
travel. In England, it was predict
ed that travelling at 80 miles an
hour would cause insanity.
Item: When Samuel Clegg pro-
posed to light the streets Of a
London borough with gas, the
borough council vetoed his plan.
Expert scientific opinion main
tanned that a filled "gasometer"
was hazardous - that lighting a
Jet might cause all the gas in the
tank to explode, reducing the city
to ruins.
Item: When Alexander Graham
Bell began his experiments with
the telephone in 1874, electrical
engineers agreed that 1t was a
triumph Of folly.

battling conservative opinion, has
to get to the top the hard way.

The mature man or woman re-

Your judgment is better and you

what can be SKINNED.
Mostly, though, you have great
err resources to lean on in evaluat-

The disadvantages, she admit
ted, were having to re-learn some
technical skills, such as shorthand
and having to forget old ideas"
How did you find time to keep
house and study at the same time ?
Everybody thinks I had some
great master plan to organize my

I didn't. The homework got

Mrs. Hogan's lively sons, Gary,

only results in the crumbs that fall
from the table Of the Democratic

demonstrated at the ballot box, as
they did in the election Of 1860,
