The music: yesterday who brie'd his‘m'in n.3,“.
places rs now but vaguely remembered — swallowed up in yes-
terday’ s seven thousand years. ’

cord of human achievement.

You may take, for mstance, the history of transportation in
America and read that extraordinary tale of progress in an un- ‘

vertisements that inform us of each progressive step from the
