IL WILLETT ' Tel. 3118 "TOe TTalle oC 1Tumme, The watch which you carry in your pocket or wear upon your wrist marks the culmination of a world-old search for accurate time-recording instruments. Probably one of the first mechanical inventions of ' primitive man was a means whereby he could roughly , determine time. This was perhaps brought about thru his attention being attracted to the shadow of a tree or mountain that roughly marked the rising or setting of the sun. As he progressed in mental de velopment he erected a pole with definite markings around it, such as stones set at intervals that would mark several periods of time during the day. This was later-called the Sun-Dial a device deliberately planned to accomplish a certain purpose. The man who took this first step was the forerunner of the manufacturer who supplies you with the present-day watch. Another early method used was the plaited rope of grass which was dampened before it was set afire so that it would burn slowly. The creeping spark marked the flight of the hours for him, just as the rising and setting of the sun marked the span of the day. A long period intervenes between these first crude efforts of the Sun-Dial and moistened rope timekeep ers and the present-day watch. The word "dial' by the way comes from the Latin "dies," meaning day. Naturally, as man progressed in culture and found more and more work for his hands, he sought and de veloped more and more accurate time-recorders the water cloth (clepsydra) credited to the Chinese -as early as 2656 B.tJM the Sun-Dials of ancient Babylon, Egypt, Greece and Rome, the portable astrolobes of China and Arabia, the hourglass of Charlemagne, and King Edward's time candle. ; It was not until twelve or thirteen centuries after ' the birth of Christ, however," hat a clock, depending on wheels and weights for its movement, was invent ed, the first authentic record of such a mechanism being the clock made by Peter Lightfoot, an ingenious monk, In 1335. Fifty-four years laterin 1389 the famous clock in the Cathedral at Rouen, still the offi cial timepiece of this historic French town, was erected. The first watch was made, twelve years after the discovery of America, by a young locksmith of Nu remberg, Peter Henlein, who fashioned his "portable clock" while hiding in a monastery where he sought sanctuary when charged with murder. This "Father Adam" of all watches was spring-driven and made en- tirely of iron. It was half a foot high, correspondingly as thick, and lost about one-half hour in each twenty four. The first wrist watch of which there is any record" was a New Year's gift to Queen Elizabeth in 1571, described as a "rich jeweled armlet having in the clos ing thereof a clocke. V . . The story of the watch, from these early days on, Is a fascinating story of patient evolution and con stant, refinement the Introduction of glass crystals in 1620, the invention of the hair spring (originally a .pig's bristle) in 1661, the addition of the minute hand in 1670, the application of jewels in 1704, and the ap pearance of the first keyless watch in 1752.' , MADE TO LIVE AGAIN NOT A MIRACLE ' " - .
