Henry Ford has moved Edison's
original Menlo Park laboratory to
Dearbourn, Michigan, and on the
twenty-first of October Mr. Edison
re-enacted the invention of the in

It is believed that this invention
has done more for tho world than
any other invention. It has revolu
tionized industry and has brought
about great advances in our civili
zation. Although Ediron is one of tho
world's busiest men, he finds time
for the advancement of youth. His
career should be an inspiration to
all boys andg iris.

the two Kentucky boyc who hitch

last spring in 14 days, arrived home
October 6, having made the trip in

come west. '
The boys left Maupin September
19, intending to go by way of the
southern route. They changed their
itinerary and went by way of Den
ver. From that city they caught a
ride clear into Kansas City, a dis
tance of better than 800 miles. They
went t0 St. Louis and fro mthere to
Lexington, Kentucky, where they
visited a few days with Max's father,
then on to Barbourville.
Both boys are attending Union
college, Ester being particularly ac
tive in athletics. He is a member of
the rollgc football team, also playing
on the baseball team and listing in
most other college events.
They say they want to come back
next summer, and knowing the pull
ing power of htis part of the coun

both will be here for harvest next
season.
