After a short visit in the house, they entered automobiles and toured Fort Myers, stopping for two minutes at each of the city’s schools to enable school children to give their con- Gratulations to Mr. Edison and their Greeting to Mr. Hoover. The presi- dent-elect and the inventor rode in the first automobile in the parade. In cars immediately following were oth- er members of the birthday party. Hold Birthday Luncheon At the conclusion of the parade the party returned to the Edison home where the inventor's birthday lunch- eon was held. The feature of the luncheon was a large Pound-cake, Mr. Edison's favorite, with white icing and surmounted by a single green candle, Mr. Ford came to the new office building early to give birthday greet- ings to his friend and stayed in the building for some time while Mr. Ed- ison was answering the questions sub- mitted to him. Mr. and Mrs. Fire- stone came to the estate while photo- eee were taking pictures of Mr. n. Edison’s birthday is always an event. Reporters and cameramen besiege him, take as many pictures as he will allow and ply him with questiens on everything under the sun. Always recognized as a man of surpassing intellect, he is now, in his old age, accepted also as something of an oracle. On his birthday, too, people like to look back over-his long career. His life-story always bears re-telling. It is immensely interesting. The story of what he did, and how he did it, is one of the most absorbing stories America has produced. Sold News as Boy Milan, O., was Edison's birthplace. The year was 1847. The nation then was @ quiet country; agriculture was its mainstay, and the industrial revo- lution had hardly begun to be felt. The streets of big cities were lighted by gas; in smaller towns they were not lighted at all.. Electricity was only @ puzzling natural phenomenon. It was a pre-Edison country, vastly different from today. When Edison was 7 his family jmoved to Port Huron, Mich.; and there, five years later, he started out to make his way in the world.

Edison determined to find an electric light that could be used cheaply by every householder. The problems were many, but in 1879 Edison introduced the first incandescent electric light. At about the same time Edison pro- duced another invention—less spec- tacular, but tremendously important. He developed the first central power station, to furnish the current for the hundreds of lamps with which his Menlo Park laboratory was festooned. To do this, he had to devise a dy- namo far more efficient than any- thing then in existence. He did it— and thendeveloped a new electric mo- tor, built an experimental electric; train and paved the way for the elec- tric street car, subway, elevated and electric locomotive.

His whole career was devoted to inven- tion, and once a device was complete he lost interest in it. It has been es- timated that the industries which have grown out of his inventions are worth at least $20,000,000,000; his own Personal fortune has been estimated to run over a million, but not to any height comparable to those of Ford or Rockefeller, MARSHALL NETLAN IS OVERCOME IN GARAGE 75 foot lot, all fenced, chicken house, mostly furnished, for $2,100. jod cellar, ‘ot Tenced, for go te . on very liberal terms. mies Tet tee lp. improv room house, » chicken 5 old granary, all fenced $2,650, on terms. 160 ACRES of land in ty, well located, mostly in cultivae tion, no buildings, for $10 per acre GOOD 50 foot lot on Sixth street, lot on corner of Third and Avenue B, lot on corner of Third and Avenue C, 75 foot frontage on Ninth GEO.
