The cause, he sald, is a just one, and & new Norwich will Tesult in a city where the business men can show a profit at the end of the year; a city looking forward, and not back- ward; a city that will be known the world over. The boom is on, and 1912 will be a banner year in the history of the city, a year that will not be forgot- ten, The glory of it will be due to the men engéged in this noble cause. Opportunities come to all men, but all men do not grasp them. This is an oppertunity that we should grasp. The American Thermos Bottle company is ours, bottled up so tight that the whole world cannot get it away. But we must continue our efforts {o raise the few remaining thousand dollars. Reference was made by C. H. Has- kel to the gift of $1 by Bennie Brou- yino, one of his employes, earning $10 & week and having a wife and eight children to support, declaring that he had given his tithe where many others In the city had failed. He was given a rousing cheer. A meeting of the team captains fol- lowed the dinner and the session lasted nearly an hour. It was announced at the meeting Friday that Rev. P. C.

Arthur Brisbanc’s editorial comment on the Thermos bottle in the New York Evening Journal, follows: Many men were busy in the club. Mr. Daniel Cohalon was giving a patri- otic dinner in honor of Mr. O'Donnell. The purpose of the dinner was to free Ireland—a task that Mr. Cohalon is determined to carry out, if he has to hurt the feelings of King Edward and all the royal family. Mr. John Devoy, the Gaelic editor, was_patiently explaining to F. P. Dunne that all Irish bills born under the clock tower must necessarily be bad, because of their being made by Englishmen. Downstairs, Mr. Murphy, nare is Cross & Co., W his enraptured friends, a bottle, that «keeps eold, if you wanit it, or hot if you want it to, About that bottle we want to talk. The new invention is called “the Thermos Bottle.” Whether this bot- tle will permanently do all the things thai it is said to do we do not know. hose who wis hto find out must ex- periment through purchase. But we do know that the idea is a plausible oue, ana an intensely interesting one, as it actually imitates, in the little bottle, that you can carry around in vour pocket, the plan that is used in kecp- ing this earth fit to live upon. This Thermos hottle will kecp lia- uids ice cold all day or it will keep tiungs hot for several hours, as you Whatever you put in the Dot- t'a certain temperature, high 1emains at that temperature, maiter what the weather may be For dnstance, a workman going off in the morning can fill the hottle with het coffee and find it hot at noon on a cold winter day. A woman going out 1o the park with e child ean put cool milk in the bott’e and find it coo. heurs afterward, even though it ma) whose reai showing to have lain upon the grass in i:e hot sunlight. These statements seem extravidi- nary; but, according to Mr. Murphy's simple. There is no chemical, no heating, ne ice. The bottle is constructed in sucii a way as to prevent heat from coming cut or from going in If you put hot stuff inside the bot heat cannot come out. If you put cold stuft in side the bottle the nea:i eannot go in and spoil its coldness. And this is because the bottle is vuilt upon”the lines of the earth on which you live bottle consists of two glass one inside the other and joonea together at the neck, The is en alr space between the two Lot tles, or divisions, and from this ali of tse oir has been extracred, forming a vACULT:. a8 nearly com “8 Posgi- ble. And that is all tae secret Ln |is 1o 1t Heat doe: mot travel througi a vas- uum. ‘Heat can no more go from one side to another of a chamber contain- ing no air than you could go from one side to apother of a room containing no floor, The mysterious thing we from cne atom of air to the next, and so on. If you take the air out of a space surrounding the bottle, the heat can neither go out nor go in, and therefore the inside must stay the original temperature. There could only be a slight loss or addition | of heat at the neck where the two are jotned. You may ask, “What has that got to do with the way our earth i- con- structe It has everything to do with it. This earth and the water on it, and the air around it, are supplied with & certain amount of heat. The inside of the earth is supposed to h very hot, perhaps boiling hot, In any case, we have only a llmited amount of heat here, in addition to that which comes to us from the sun in the day time, and that sun heat is mystery— we know nothing of its nature or how it gets here, But we do know that the amount of heat which we pos sess in the earth itseif is limited. And we know that the only thing that sayes us is the fact that the earth is built like the Thermos bottle, With a vac- uum all around It, and the heat caunot g0 out through the vacuum. There is no such thing in this worid as real vacuum. Nothing could be ah- solutely empty. But around us there is a good enough vacuum—that is to say, there is a mass of ether, 5o called, a substance so thin that we can hard- ly conceive it. Through this ether our earth rolls, carrying lts and its heat along with it. And aftur millions of years from now, thanks to this almost complete vacuum and non- conductor of heat surrounding us, we shall still have the heat with us. This ether that surrounds us, an: in which our earth travels, is incon- ceivably cold. If you could get to the top of this atmosphere—it s not o many miles high—and stick your head out into that ether your head woull be frozen solid in about a hundredtn part of a second. If our atmosphers should vanish and if the cold eilier should close down and come in contact with our earth, all the oceans and lakes would become solid lumps of ice, ang every living thing would ins Iy be frozen stiff and frozen stiff ever, or until some heat-creating cai- aclysm should occur, All the heat in our earth, all the latent heat in our oceans, would b~ absorbed in & second by that cold ether around us except for the fact that the dreadful frozen ocean of ther through which our earth ship takes us is a b conductor of heat. It is to all intents and purposes a vacuum, and this egrih keeps its warmih miraculously with utter, inconceivable cold all around 1t is'as remarkable as though a baby of three years should walk from here to the North pole with bare feet and come home without even a frost bite. We are glad to congratulate the in- ventive mind that has imitated the carpentry of the cosmos in plain glase botties, that can be used by mothers and workmen, and picnic parties, aud others. It is a good thing occasion- ally to remember how much the world owes to the ideas born in the inven- tive mind. Everylhing that we have, from a corkscrew to a pile driver o: ial shape of some ideg, born in a humrn brain. If it is true that human ingenuity has given us a bottle that will keep cold without ice, and warm without fire, man may set up one more mul atmosphere stone on the long, dreary road he has | traveled for thousands of years past| if i his journey from'heipiess, brutal ignorance to tie finel compleie knowl- edge that will crown him real ruler of the earth and his own destiny, MISS BRUNELLE SURPRISED.
