His fonaer home was in rcola, Illinois. Mr. and Mm Ritsert spent day in Liberty v Hie, Water Power Proved Miracle to Egyptians Favorite trick of Egyptian priests to impress their parishioners was to have the gates of the temples closed, thus indicating that the gods were angry. The crowds would gather, a fire would be lighted on an altar in the temple yard, and offering would be made t^ the reluctant gods. Presently, the awed and deeply impressed assemblage would witness the gates of the temple slowly open, untouched by human hands. Clearly, this was a miracle. In reality, the miracle was a great one. Yet, like many miracles of this character, there was an explanation. Underneath the altar was an area filled with air and channeled to a vat of water. The heat of the votive fire expanded the air and its pressure forced the water through pipes into buckets attached to the temple doors. When the buckets were filled, their weight opened the doors. The crude device contained the essential elements of the earliest practical steam engines. ; / Price Inflation Prices rose twice ns fast after the armistice in World War I as during the war For example, a Sipound sack of potatoes increased 3% cents during the war and an additional 33 cents in the yea' and 8 months following the armistice. Almost 40 per cent of the total price increase in the entire period of the last war came after the fighting was finished.
