The Father of Chemistry
HAT makes a fire burn? If
you were asked this question,
1 you might be hard put to give a
reasonable answer. As a matter
of fact, no one in the whole world
could answer it until Laurent La
voisier, the famous French scien
tist, discovered oxygen in the Eight
eenth century. •
Besides giving oxygen its name
and explaining its properties, La
voisier was the first man to show
why hydrogen and oxygen combined
to form water. Because he made
so many fundamental contributions
to the world of science, he is now
generally known as the “Father of
Chemistry.”
But Lavoisier was far more than
a famous scientist. Handsome and
witty, he was also a prominent
courtier in the Courts of Louis XV
and XVI. He was a friend of Marie
Antoinette and was always in the
thick of royal intrigues and politics.
When the French revolution broke
out, he was in the thick of that.
He witnessed the roaring fall of
the Bastille. He invented a new
way of making saltpeter, the es
1 sential element in gunpowder. Fa
mous chemist though he was.
Lavoisier was finally thrown into
I prison by the fanatical Robespierre,
who said he had no use for any
scientists, especially aristocratic
ones.
Those were the days when Paris
streets were running red with hu
man blood. Being an aristocrat,
Lavoisier was soon on his way to
I the guillotine. He died as he had
lived, laughing and unafraid. A
| friend who witnessed the execution
wrote his memorial: “It took but
| a moment to cut off his head, but
another like it cannot be produced
in a hundred years.”

Military Uniform*
LOUIS XIV, the depraved French
king, really brought on the
French revolution through his ava
rice and cruelty to his people. A
most disorderly man himself, his
greatest contribution to posterity
was his reintroduction of the mili
tary uniform, the forerunner of
modern standardized goods.
Although regular uniforms had
been worn by Greek and Roman
soldiers, the art was lost during the
Middle ages. Since soldiers fought
in small bands, they could either
recognize each other personally or
wear some identifying badge which
distinguished them from the enemy.
But Louis XIV built up the larg
est army Europe had ever known
up to that time, a huge force of
100,000 men. He gave orders to
his generals, “Drill them to act
as one, discipline them to respond
as one, uniform them to look as
one!”
The generals could do the drilling
and disciplining without any
trouble, but when it came to the
uniforms they were up against a
new problem. Making 100,000 uni
forms that all look exactly alike
is no small problem. The generals
were finally forced to build up a
whole new textile and clothing in
dustry and install the first modern
system of standardized goods and
sizes.
So when you go into a department
store to buy a size seven shoe or
a fifteen collar, remember that it
was old Louis XIV and his aides
who first thought up the idea.
