Continuous Motion-Picture Machines

America's supremacy conies about by reason of her social-economic engines. She has given the world more mechanisms to do what had theretofore been done by hand, than all other countries combined; and because we are great folks to love our neighbors, some of our most brilliant efforts have been to facilitate intercourse, for intercourse means friendliness. So we have given the world instruments to promote sociability, the telegraph, the telephone, the typewriter, the talking machine, the typesetting machine, and now we add the motion-picture machine to hasten our means of knowing each other.
