True Success Story

By F. E. MacArthur

Thomas Alva Edison. a modern inventor wizard. was born on Feb. runrif 4. 1847. in the i.iny'village of Milan, Ohio. He got his start in life ihe hard way for his parents, who were very poor. could not af- ford io give the boy even the ad- vantages of a decent education. But young Edison had a very ver- satile mind and could ask more questions than any boy in Milan, or in the State of Ohio for that matter. He was considered quite a dunce at school and plagued his teacher by asking too many ques- tions. Besides Thomas was a delic- ate child and his mother decided to take him out of school and teach him herself. He appears to have made satisfactory progress under his mother's instruction for soon he was able to read, write and solve difficult sums, though his whole mind mostly was occup- ied in making new experiments. About this time his parents, and especially his shiiiless father. de- cided the family needed a change of scenery, so they packed their meager belongings and set out for

Port Huron, Michigan.

Thomas made a small laboratory in the cellar of their new home. bought himself a few books and there, with no one to help him, laid the foundations of his fascin- ating career. a story that runs like a silver thread through the chron- icles of great achieyements.

Edison started out to make his own way in the world at an age when most boys are still tied to their mother's apron strings. At twelve he was I newsboy on the train which ran from his home town to Detroit. in one corner of the baggage car the young sales- man kept his goods. his books and of course his utile laboratory where he did a bit of experiment- ing on the side. To get more ex- perience out of life he set up a printing-press in the same baggage car, and published a small weekly paper in which he featured local news and events that occurred "down the line." Edison's weekly paper went over Dl'8"Y bi! 10? people were keenly interested in what this curious YWDI i3h3Pr had to say about this and that event. The travelling pub1lC simply t-te up the little human interest sor- is; picked up by the sauna nub- lisher as he sold his wanes.

time to save him from being crushed to death under ihe'mon- sier's wheels. In gratitude for this act the child's father taught Ed- ison the mysteries of telegraphy. thus opening up for the rising gen- ius a new means of earning a live- lihood. I O O

For ten years Thomas Edison worked at his new job, first at Port Huron and later at Stratford, Canada. and finally in Boston. All the while he studied and carried on experiments in chemistry and electricity. ,

At the age of twenty-three Edi- son went to New York. arriving in the big city without a sou in his pockets; but with a lot of valuable experience.

And now we come to another exciting chapter in this remark- able man's life. While waiting for a "yes" or "no" to his application for a job with the Gold and Stock Telegraph Company DB1"! Of the apparatus broke down and in the twinkling of an eye the whole place was in a state of confusion. Edison offered to set the machine right. At the end of two hours the repair job was satisfactorily com- pleted and work in the office was resumed. The young wizard was asked if he would accept a position

with the company at a salary of 5300. per month. Needless to !ay he jumped at the offer - three hundred a month! - why that was more money than he had ever dreamed of earning in such a short time.

But in a little over one year Edison was in the "big money". He sold his telegraph invention and sailed away a few good fat bricks. Now he built himself a factory and became a manufacturer. The site was Newark, New Jersey.

In 1876 he set up a laboratory at Mcnlo Park. N. J. Later he moved the equipment to West Orange where he made' hundreds and hundreds of new inventions and employed hundreds of persons in the work that brought him inter- national fame.

To list all of Thomas Edison's inventions would require consid- erable space and would serve no useful purpose in today's success story. as most persons now living know of this modern wi7.ard's achievements. The value of his contributions to mankind cannot be reckoned in dollars and cents but we do know that Edison has accomplished more than any nih- er man in making life fuller for millions who now use his inven- tions all over the world.

1950 is the fiftieth anniversary of the Wear-Ever line in Canada.

These aluminum cooking utensils were int duced here at the - - beginning of the century. Their popularity grew so rapidly that. by 1912. a new factory was needed to supply the demand. This was built in Toronto. It was the first plant in Canada to make aluminum articles-and this was only a donen years after the El-st Canadian smelter had started making slumimnn ingots at Sbawinigan Falls. i Today Alean has twelve plants. all of them engaged in the aluminum industry; while more than 1000 independent companies across Canada shape the metal into all sorts of useful forms-lfronl kettles to freight cars.

Sara saw that rolling cloud of yellow dust sweeping along the main highway from the city, She was watching for just a sight, peering anxiously from an upper window. Already she had given Simmons orders to have the Beechwood gates open, and she was down almost as soon as the roadster swept through and drew up in front of the house. Jack Moreland was out of the car and half way up the steps to meet her.

"How do you do. Miss Dalton? I came as soon as I got your mes- sage. What is the trouble?”

”Gloi-y," said Sara Dalton blunt- ly. "Things are happening, but be- fore I tell you I want to know what she means to you. You can tell me. I know you are married and why."

She saw him wince just as Gloria winced when Jack's name was mentioned. But he had no opportunity to answer. Old Sim- mons, the gardener, was hurrying across the lawn with a small tow- header youngster at his heels,

"Miss Dalton. I think I'll be tak- in' the wood road to the old mill to find Miss staunton. I see her startin' off that way for a walk and Jimmy here-"

"They's tramps there!" inter- rupted Jimmy importantly. "I

But Jack was gone. on foot, of

Slowly Gloria shrank back, rigid with horror. The tramp reached 0113 9- grimy hand, his eyes on a costly pin that she wore, sapphires and diamonds,

"You'll fight me will ye? W611 see-"

"stop that!"

Through the doorway a man came swiftly. The tramp jerked around to face him and crashed

the fall he struggled to rise again, but someone was on his chest, a cyclone of a man jerked him to his knees and swung him about like a steel crane.

"Get upi"

The tramp tried to dodge, trip- ped and stumbled and raised a protesting whine.

"See here, boss, I didn't mean--"

"You won't mean anything when I get through with you!" Close- snapped words wih fist behind them. "Now get out of here before 1 land you in Jail. Get out!"

The badly punished tramp scrambled to his feeet, made for the door and went down the road on a lurching run. Jack watched him, taking no chances. Then he came back hatless and a little dis- heveled to where Gloria stood watching him with shining eyes.

"You're not hurt?" he demand- ed, and at something in his tolie with its roughness of anxiety her eyes brimmed treacherously.

"No. I'm not hurt. But if you had not come-Oh, Jacki"

That was all. after months of misunderstanding but the last word was a smothered wail against his shoulder and he was holding her close, his face against hers,
