THE MAGIC OF N 
Because groups of men have had a vision of 
something beyond ordinary knowledge—because 
these men have patiently experimented with the | 
unknown—because they have intelligently inter-  : 
preted what their tests told them—our modern 
lives are surrounded by remarkable inventions. | 
Think of the things we have today that even our ; 
fathers didn't dream possible! A turn ofadialand | 
we listen to a voice from halfway around the | 
world. Slight pressure on a foot pedal of our | 
modern car takes us, in an hour, a distance our | 
grandfather used to consider a day’s journey. With, 
modern machinery we plow a field faster thana  , 
horse could cover it in a gallop. Research—the . 
key to these every-day miracles—has made our | 
lives more comfortable and more interesting. Re- | 
search, by its constant exploration of the unknown, 
has set up new standards by which we judge all 
our endeavors. But ... mark this carefully... | 
among the most remarkable of these results is.
