THE TIME CAPSULE
A SEGMENT OF OUR TIME PRESERVED
FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS
IHEN WE SURVEY THE PAST
and note how perishable are all
human things, we are moved to
attempt the preservation of some
of the world's present material &
intellectual symbols, that knowl
edge of them may not disappear
from the earth.
For there is no way to read the future of the world : peo
ples, nations, and cultures move onward into inscrutable
time. In our day it is difficult to conceive of a future less
happy, less civilised than our own. Yet history teaches
us that every culture passes through definite cycles of
development, climax, and decay. And so, we must recog-
niz;e, ultimately may ours.
By the same reasoning, there will rise again a civilizja-
tion of even vaster promise standing upon our shoulders,
as we have stood upon the shoulders of ancient Sumer,
Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The learned among that cul
ture of the future may study with pleasure and profit
things now in existence which are unique to our time,
growing out of our circumstances, needs, and desires.
Five thousand years ago, during a period of invention,
development, and science rivaling that of our day, re
corded history began. It would be pleasant to believe
