Editorial Comment The Motive Power of Society
The world advances through ordinary men who lack talent yet bear responsibility for progress. When the average person withdraws effort, civilization stalls. Science and art elevate us, but collective effort keeps the wheels moving.

Thoughts on leaders and jokes from Tom Sims

Catamaran contraption turns two logs into a sailing boat
Ned and Ted convert two large logs into a sailing catamaran with a mast sail and rudder. They build braces and a deck, using an ash mast and a leg of mantiam sail. They test it on a windy day, finding it safer than a sail on a normal rowboat though slower than a surf boat. Encounters with Uncle Ben’s restrictions fuel their inventive effort.
