 mysteries of nature and transforming them into 

 living truths of priceless value. 



The twentieth century is to be the century of 

 science. Long before it has passed into history 

 all lines of industry, commerce, government and 

 even religion will have been brought to the plane 

 of natural law. Turn whichever way we may, 

 there comes the demand for definite knowledge,
