HEN we measure human progress by the standard of a single life we come nearest to getting a com- prehensive idea of the swiftness of the social movements of our time, ‘This gives a general interest to statements made in The World of yes- terday by Mr. Herman Winter, reviewing some of the salient features of the growth of the ship- ping of the North German Lloyd during his twenty-six years of ser-| vice with it. In 1880 the registered tonnage of the line was 89,484 tons. In 1907 it had grown to more than 754,000, From 1880 to 1890 the ships of the company carzied in round numbers 854,000 passengers, that time they have carried over seven million passengers. his is but a sample of the growth of a single company measured By the service of a single life.
