Voices From the Grave CHAIN of industrial museums will be established eventually in this country by a big fund provided in the will of Henry R. Towne. He said his purpose was to show the processes of production on which our civiliza- tion rests, also the evolution of inventions and industry. There are only four other important museums of this sort in the world. They are in Paris, Munich, London and Vienna. Sie? je VISIT to a Towne industrial museum will be highly educational. And it will start a lot of thought. For one thing, it will make us appreciate the conven- jences we take for granted and consider commonplace. The present generation does not realize how fortunate it is. Ask a white-haired old woman who can recall when water was carried in pails instead of thru pipes, when there were no gas or electric stoves, and kindling had to be chopped to start a fire. The thermostat, which automatically regulates the tem- perature of an office, store, factory or home, is magical. So are electric irons, telephone, radio, street car, movies. There rises in memory of many a reader the day when bathtubs were scarce, when life in general was a succes- sion of discomforts from the modern viewpoint. All these would be shown in industrial museums. 8 E look about at our homes, furniture, autos, fine roads. We thrill with pride and vanity in the be- lief that all these have been created by our efforts. “I worked to earn the money, saved up to buy i Ah, but nine-tenths of th things we use are really legacies from the past. They were made possible by the toil, hardship and courageous struggles of the millions who long since went to the grave. A rich heritage of progress has been handed down to us—and an even contributed by men still living or but a d. richer heritage few years dec« In the last gene ation we have progressed industrially and scientifically more than the people of 100 generations before. Art does not tell the stor Nor does’ history, which is mainly the record of wars. Industrial museums could. And they probably will, thanks to the vision of the late Henry R. Towne.

Are You a War Veteran? You May Be Overlooking This! This is the first of two articles advising war veterans of the provisions of the adjusted compensation bill passed by the last congress.

In case of your demise, your relatives will receive a mere pittance, and that spread out into 10 payments, rather than a lump sum for the policy value. The adjusted compensation insurance is based upon the number of days of service. When a veteran applies, the government a service certificate, and if there was over 110 days’ service, an insurance policy of the r endowment type, worth about two and one-half times the face value of the service certificate, Should a veteran apply for insurance, and die the following day, the full value of the compensation insur- ance policy will be paid his relatives in one lump sum. rict Should a veteran die without making application for ht compensation insurance, his beneficiary is paid only the is al pen a purpose back value of the service certifigate—$1 a day for domestic a unless I an vee and $1.25 a day for foreign service, less the $60 bonus i 9 paid in 1919.
