WHERE DO PINS GO?
MORE THAN 100 A YEAR MADE FOR EVERY PERSON
IN THE UNITED STATES
UNCT.E SAM has been trying to find
out where all tho pins go. That is
an old Question. Away back in the
days of tho cave dwellers somo house
wife, dressed In skins, probably asked It
when the pretty bone pins made by her
husband insisted mysteriously on disap
pearing Just when she needed them; and
almost everybody slnco then has wondered
Just tho same way.
Uncle Sam sent puzzle solvers out to
study the matter. Theso puzzle solvers
were called census collectors. They had
to solve many other hard problems, for
finding out about pins was only one of
many thousands of things that Uncle Sam
insisted on knowing. Some of them had
to count his buffaloes, and others had
to conut his locomotives, and others his
children, big and little. Most of them did
pretty well. They got so far as to count
his chickens before they were hatched.
They found out how many Indians he has
in his country, and how many miles of
telegraph wire, and how many cows and
horses and sheep and goats, and lots of
other queer things.
But the men who hunted after tho pin
question did not manage to find any lost
plna All that they could discover was
how many are made each year, and how
many everybody In tho country ought to
have If most of us did not keep losing
them.
If everybody got his or her share of the
pins that are manufactured In tho United
States, each one of us ought to have 103
new pins each year, or a little more than
one new pin every three days.
There were 7,250,000,000 of pins made In
tho United States in the year, and tho
needles that were turned out amounted to
more than 161.000.000.
Of course. Uncle Sam's puzzle solvers
did not count these pins and needles one
by one. To do that would have required
more thaa one man's lifetime. They
found out how many factories of pins
and needles thero are In tho country and
then they asked each one for the amount
turned out by It.
The census collectors found that there
are 43 factories, all making them as fast
as machinery can do 1L Three and one
quarter millions of dollars are Invested in
the shops and machines and tools for
making them. Tho manufacturers sold
their product for almost J3.000.000.
There are seven times as many pins and
noodles turned out now as there were In
1800. Then, the work gave employment
to only 256 prsons. now 2353 are employed
at It. The manufacture of pins and nee
dles has given $939,S46 to working people
In wages in the past year.
The most pins and needles arc raade in
St David's Episcopal church. East

Centenary Methodist.
At the Centenary Methodist Episcopal
Church, corner East Pino and Ninth
Connecticut, New Hampshire, Massachu
setts and .New York." Connecticut and
Massachusetts make almost all the sewing-machine
needles used.
Undo Sam first attempted to make pins
when ho was not Uncle Sam at all, but
only trying to be. During the Revolu
tionary War not tho least of tho hardships
that the brave American women had to
suffer was tho lack of pins; for tho King's
cruisers gobbled them up with everything
else that ships tried to bring here. So a
few pins were made in Connecticut and in
the Carollnas. But even the patriots had
to admit that they were not good pins and
they did not begin to supply the demand.
In the War of 1812 pins became scarce
again. You may be sure that for a time
any child that lost a pin then was scolded
and had to look for It. A few pins wero
made hero again, but when the war ended
and English pins began to arrive onco
more the domestic manufacture ceased.
Then no pins to speak of wero made by
Uncle Sam until 1S30, when more than ono
of his shrewd Yankee boys began to in
vent machines for their manufacture.
The first machine made the pins with
out a head. The head was formed from
tiny colls of fine wire and fastened on
the shank by pressure. The next Yankee
boy Invented a machine that made pins
with a solid head. Before long, Uncle
Sam's folk had machines that turned pins
out at the rate of 170 a minute. Not con
tent with that, they Invented a machine
to stick the pins into papers.
When pins were made by hand each pin
had .to pass through the hands of 18 dif
ferent persons before It was finished. Now
a machine does It all. Colls of wire are
placed on a reel and the machine draws
out as much wire as It needs, punches' a
part of It Into a head and then passes
it on to steel pincers that seize It as
hands would and pass It along In front of
cutters, twirling each pin constantly so
that It will be sharpened properly. Then
the pins are thrown out Into a bath that
plates them with tin. From this bath they
go Into a revolving barrel of sawdust that
brightens them.
This process would no doubt dazzle the
simple person who made tho first pin.
That first pin possibly was ono of -the first
things that man tried to make. For as
soon as he began to wear even the most
primitive garment he met the necessity
of holding It on. and something sharp to
stick into it was the natural thing that
suggested Itself. No doubt he used a
thorn at first But thorns were rarely
of the proper shape and the busy human
.brain was not content till It had devised
something hotter. So It woe not long be

nobly pinned together with slender, white
fish bones.
Fish bones served richly until man be
gan to long for beauty, probably without
knowing It Being simple and direct ho
soon gratified bis desire by personal adorn
ment So the cave dwellers began to rub
the smaller animal bones on flint till they
had ground them Into fairly good pins
and skewers.
From that it was only a step to tho
highly ornamented pins that have been
found in the ancient lake dwellings of
Central Europe. Some of these had double
shanks, like our modern hairpins. Others
were shaped like safety pins. Most of
them hnri ripWirotort Viono
Of course pins would not servo all pur
poses, ana tho ancient man soon had to
devlso something that was like a pin and
yet would draw a sinew or other bind
ing material through his skin gar
ment so that two pieces of It could be
fastened together. Again, the fishbone had
tq serve, and when a cavedweller discov
ered that by tying a piece of deer sinew
to it ho could stitch his clothes together,
tho first sewing society of the world
was started. It probably held Its open
ing session in somo cave in Southern
France.
From fish bones and animal 'bones to
metal was the next great advance made
by the world. Man was still very primi
tive and uncouth when he found that
he could do things with the ores of tho
earth. Perhaps he got his first Idea of it
from seeing volcanic fire fuse the great
rocks. At any rate, he began to make
his pins and needles out of bronze before
long.
The first needles were merely straight,
pointed pieces of metal. The sinew or
fiber that served as thread was tied to one
end. An Inventive genius Improved on
this ono day by making a little hook
In the end to prevent the fiber from slip
ping off. as It often did. The next man
Improved that by cutting a notch Instead
of making the clumsy hook.
Then for many ages the world did not
mako any notable Improvement In nee
dles. Folk used clumsy metal contriv
ances and did not dream that they were
not good enough, until the Moors entered
Spain at the time of the great Invasion
of Europe by the grim and terriblo Sara
cens. Tho Moors brought with them, be
sides much other culture, the art of mak
ing dainty needles of steel. Gradually
the knowledge spread through Europe,
and 120 years before Columbus discovered
America the men of Nuremburg began to
make them. That was a queer Industry
then; for the needle-makers were the
armorers, too; and the same man who
beat out a tiny needle to be used by the
delicate fingers of a woman In embroid
ery and hemming might be busy In anoth
er hour forging a tremendous double
handed sword of the kind that the old
fighters loved to wield.
And. by the way. Isn't it queer to think
that many of your pretty and Innocent
toys are made now by the descendants of
those same old Nuremburg craftsmen who'
sent out the weapons that made poor
Europe bloody for so many generations?
Nobody could beat the Nuremburg
craftsmen in those days, and so before
many years almost everybody else had
ceased trying to compete with them ex
cept the Moors. And the Moors could
not spare the time to make many needles,
for they soon had work that demanded
tools far more grim. So he secret be
came almost lost to the world at large..
Then, one day in 1543, a mysterious
stranger arrived In London and opened a
shop in Cheapside. Soon his neighbors
began to whisper that he was a Moor who
had escaped from Spain, and as the Moors
then were suspected of sorcery. It was
not long before folk said that he had
dealings with the evil one, for the Moor
had for sale wonderful steel needles that
were so fine and tiny that no one could
believe that It was possible for man to
make them. But the rich English women
were so glad to get such needles that they
protected the Moor with all their influence,
and they defeated the designs of many
persons who would have teen very glad
to extort the secret from the man under
pretense of punishing him for witchcraft
The Moor finally died in peace and his. se
cret died with him.
During Queen Elizabeth's reign a Ger
man arrived In England and made "Span
ish" needles. Before long an Englishman
Imported 22 German worklngmen. That
practically founded tho great needle-making
Industry of England.
It Is a far cry from the poor fugitive
Moor In ancient London, sitting In his
little shop and turning out a fow dozens
of needles a day. to the roaring machine
shops of Connecticut. It Is just as If
Uncle Sam's tax census gatherers had
spread a magic carpet for you to sit on,
which whisked you at once from today
Into yesterday and far beyond. Do you
not think that It was a magic carpet worth
riding on Indeed that has been woven out
of the dry figures and statistics that he
has gathered about pins? From your
cozy houses with electric lights and glass
windows and telephones, and trolley cars
speeding not far distant, you have been
away to the dim times when man walked
abroad garbed In hides and armed with
clubs.
You have sped through Europe's dark
ages, through the romance of tho chlval
rlc Moors, through Queen Elizabeth's Lon
don, through our own Revolutionary War,
and finally Into bustling, smoking Connecr
tlcut actually like the East Indian fakir
of the old legend, who traveied around tho
world on the point of a pin! J. W. M.
"When Lord Kelvin Got Anjcry.
Lord Kelvin, during his long occupancy
of the chair of natural philosophy In the
University of Glasgow, made use of many
simple and familiar objects to Illustrate
his lectures. Eggs, jellies, shoemaker's
wax, tops, globes and bottles were among
the most common.
A significant and exceedingly popular
experiment was spinning an egg which
was suspended In the air. If this was
hard boiled it would whirl a long time. If
not it would soon cease, owing to the
friction between the contents and the
shell.
His, Inference was that the interior of
the earth cannot be fluid, or the giobft's
rate of rotation 'would have been checked
long ago. It Is related that the students
once conspired to change the eggs which
had been supplied for this illustration.
Not one would spin properly, and the lec
turer easily guessed the reason.
"None of them boiled!" wa3 the only
comment of the lecturer.
So profound was the admiration of the
students for his learning, originality, en
thusiasm and amiability, that they rarely
Indulged In mischievous pranks. It is re
lated, though, that on one occasion, while
his back was turned, he was struck on
the head by a big paper wad. On this oc
casion he betrayed heat that was highly
exceptional with him. Facing about, with
eyes aflame, he shouted:
"If I knew who dared throw that pellet,
by Jupiter, I'd hammer him!"
