Old Magazine Predicted
Terrible Warfare in 1938
"Terrible explosions," wrote Arthur B. Reeve, "will rend huge,
jagged holes in the earth; tons of
metal will crash suddenly-from the
clear blue sky."
The year was 1905, and Reeve was
writing a magazine article on "Newest Man-killing Devices and the
Warless Age."
Among the devices, he said, would
be aerial torpedoes, anti-aircraft
guns, mine-laying motorcycles, electric artillery.
"This," he declared, "is war—war
in 1938."
The prophetic article, which appeared in the November, 1908, issue
of Hampton's Broadway magazine,
has been brought to light by J. N.
r'arrar, a salesman who discovered
the issue in a collection of old periodicals.
Some' of Reeve's predictions for
the 1938 war:
Dirigibles advancing under the
protection of manufactured clouds.
Spectroscopes used to detect presence of aerial gases.
Tiny submarines which would be
launched from battleships.
Describing a battle scene—in the
war of 1938—where "a constant rain
of steel bullets whips about everything that moves,'' Reeve.wrote:
"Nothing can be seen in that valley of death except effects; the
causes are hidden with all the ingenuity of which the human brain
is capable.
"Everything is tense with a nervewracking suspense such as ancient
warfare never knew. Heroism has
taken on a new meaning; it consists
in being here at all."
••"•agiggagff'-
YOU SAVE PLENTY OF t J M E IN TURNING W I T H A J O H N D E E R E TRACTOR
You've heard about the fellow who could
turn his car around on a dime. Weil, we're not
making any extravagant statements like that
about our John Deere Tractors, but we do know
that you can pivot a John Deere Tractor within
its own length—it's done by means of the individual rear wheel brakes—and, say, does that
save you time at the row ends. You have both
hands free to operate the steering wheel all the
time—all you do is press down on the foot
brake, twist the steering wheel, and you're
ready to go down the next row—it's great, too,
for holding the tractor on sidehfll work.
'Styles' That Irritate
And Climax in Divorce
Husbands and wives can hurdle a
crisis, pick themselves up and be on
their own united way. But it's the
little things that irritate to the
breaking point. They may seem inconsequential at first, but daily repetition of annoying habits frequently
lead husband or wife to confess, " I
want a divorce."
There's the fellow who was probably a star halfback at college.
Right now he follows the old Indian
custom of letting his wife walk five
paces behind him, never holds a
door for her, and always lets her
carry the groceries.
There's the sloppy woman, her
house usually in a mess, ash trays
flowing over, and never a clean towel in the bathroom.
Then there's the energetic male
who is always going to do great
things, gets up early Sunday morning and fools around under the car
until wine calls breakfast.
After
breakfast he retires to the living
room and lounges in her best chair,
eventually dropping ashes on the
new rug.
And that frivolous female whose
feelings are easily hurt. She can't
make up her own mind about anything. Wants to be pampered.
The Battle of the Sexes starts from
just such annoyances as these. You
can probably think of many others.
Like the energetic wife who won't
let her husband relax, and the rover
boy who never knows when to come
home. But stop. Check your own
marital habits against these minor
irritations before the light of your
life starts mumbling something
about "I want a divorce."
Liquid Saves Hosiery
To make sure you get the most
out of your stocking budget, try carrying a certain little tt/he of stocking-saver in your bag. Its name is
Run-R-Stop and it's a godsend to
•every woman who's had the annoyance of sprouting a run in her best
(or even second-best) hose, either
in a public place, where it's embarrassing, or at home where she's
dressing against time.
To apply this quick-drying, convenient preventive, just squeeze a
drop on the damaged spot. If it's
a run, seal the ends with the fluid;
if it's a snag, be sure to catch all
the loose threads.
Tests have shown Run-R-Stop to
be just as effective on Nylons as on
silks.
First Church Introducing Chanting
The honor of being the first church
to introduce chanting into this country is divided between Christ
church,
Philadelphia,
and v the
church in Marblehead, Mass., where
it was first introduced in 1787. The
popularization of chanting was the
work of the Rev. William Smith, a
Connecticut clergyman. The first
Sunday School in New York was
started in 1803 by Mr. and Mrs.
Divie Bethune and Mrs. Isabella
Graham.
In 1809 the movement
reached the West with the formation of a Sunday school in Pittsburgh.
University Gets Ancient Manuscript
Yale university has been given a
musical manuscript written in 1470.
The donor was Paul Mellon of Pittsburgh. The manuscript was written
for the court of St. Charles the Bold
and contains 57 compositions in five
languages. It was lost for about 500
years.
It is designated by the
French name, "chansonnier" and is
initialed and bordered in gold, crimson and blue. Three of the languages are in English, establishing
Great Britain's influence on the music of the continent. Fourteen original pieces are included in one of
them, "L'Homme Arme," has been
sought for almost a century.

Dakota* Seemed Utopia
To the Early Pioneers
, Horace Greeley's advice, "Go
Wett, young m a n , " stirred a responsive chord in hearts of Americans.
In the early eighties a group of
young men with their wives, chiK
dren, household goods, live stock
and lumber moved into Dakota Territory to secure one of Uncle Sam's
farms. To a world always hungry
a farm was Utopia.
Arriving at dawn, a shanty 12 by
15, which must house all members
of the group until harvest, was
erected: The incredible hardships
cheerfully endured by those finely
educated young people .convinces us
that man is capable of any effort
necessary to secure sustenance and
happiness. Happiness is cheerful,
hopeful labor.
The age brought
peace, comfort, leisure.' Pleasures
were simple—a visit to... a neighbor,
an hour's reading aloud in the evening.
Dakota housewives had no worry
over menus. Meals were cornmeal
mush and milk for. supper; fried
cornmeal with sugar syrup for
breakfast; for dinner, one potato,
.with a scant allowance of wild game
or fish. Children had an orange for
Christmas.
In 1893, the Columbian Exposition's buildings were lighted by Edison's new invention.
Electricityended an era and overnight created
a new civilization. Speed became
the nation's watchword.
In the old days stability of home,
of occupation, of marriage brought
peace.-In the modern age a r e luxury, new scenes, new homes, new
marriages, each less satisfying than
the last. Material welfare has no
effect upon happiness.

Salvation of Picture Industry
New ideas in film stories and
treatments, presented on a more
pretentious scale, will prove the salvation of the motion-picture industry despite the loss of millions of
dollars in revenues through destruction of the European markets. This
is the belief of Edward Small, president of a large production company.
"In addition to loss of the European
market, producers are faced with
the fact that audiences now know
every possible turn of a story and
every trick of the trade," Small said.
"That is why we hear that certain
pictures, despite the fact that they
are embellished with expensive production trappings, fail.
Without
those trappings, they are the same
old stuff."

dedicated to the memory of Father
Junipero Serra, the heroic Franciscan missionary to the Indians. A

I n addition to the so-called regular em*
ployes, the Ford Motor Company has
hired, and now has on the payroll, at the
same regular hourly wage, thousands of
workers who are blind, crippled or otherwise incapacitated for normal productive
work. They are not selected for their
ability to build cars or to maintain the
plant. They are on the payroll because of
Henry Ford's belief that the responsibility
of a large company to labor goes beyond die point at which the unfortunate
worker can no longer produce profitably.
