day be observed by all citizens.
On October 21, 1879, Edison
turned the electric current Into a
bulb fitted with a filament of
carbonized cotton and produced a
light that glowed for forty hours.
That lamp was the parent of the
efficient lights of today. From It
Edison' has developed so much to
aid 'humanity thut last year he
was presented with a congression
al gold medal. - At the presenta
tion Calvin Coolldge, as President
of the United States, paid him
this tribute-. "Noble, kindly serv
nnt of the United States and bene
factor 'of mankind, may you 'long
he spared to continue your wucn .
Pand to. aspire those who will car-
ry forward your torch." j

which has been .established in
Medford since lust summer, places
at Medl'ord's. disposal air taxi ser
vice and airplane Instruction und
Is tho first to have made a pas
senger flight from Medford's new
municipal airport. '
The picture shows Mayor R. AV.
Pipes and Mrs. Pipes upon their
return to earth after having, en
joyed the first flight.
The Travelair plane was piloted
by Jimmy Purintnn and brought
Mis. Pipes' biggest thrill, accord
ing to a statement she made upon
alighting and was so enthusiastic
that slie is looking forward to
taking a long air trip of several
hundred miles.
The Copper King Service Is
managed by .1. W. Brown and Mr.
Automobiles will no longer be
nbln to get out in the tracks and
bold up the trolleys on the Ninth
East street line In Salt Lake City.
Trolleys on that route hereafter
will be trackless, on rubber tires,
and able to maneuver In traffic.
The Utah Light and Traction
company, which already, has some
trolley abuses in. service, has been
given permission by the city com
mission and the state public utilities-
commission to remove the
tracks from the Ninth East street
route,', pave over the old right-of-way,
and supply a considerably
speeded Bervlce with trolley buses.
The increased acceleration af
forded by a new type of control,
the greatly decreased weight of
the unit, and the ability to maneu
ver e.jgh.1; or nine feet from the side
"of the overhead trolley In passing
obstructions .or reaching the curb,
are among the factors contribut
ing to the faster schedule speeds
Which will be obtained with the
nuw trnllev hllses.

enterprise are to bo put
In service by the United States
department of commerce, which Is
to Install 400 additional airway
beacons at intervals of ten miles
each along the new light routes.
The 24-ln. beans, each of 2,000,
000 candlepower, rotate six tinies
per minute. Each tower Is equip
ped with two course lights in ad
dition to the beacon, the lights
pointing in the direction of the
nlrway and flashing In code to
Indicate the number of the beacon

is no landing field at the beacon,
the courso lights have red lenses;
green lenses are reserved for use
at airports and Intermediate land

' The electric industry has been
built upon Edison's discoveries:
No other industry owes Its Inspira
tion and progress so . completely
and overwhelmingly to the out
standing genius of one man.
... Edison blazed tile trail not only
through his Inventions, but also
through their application to every
day life. The world is .as much in
debt to Edison for working out the
complicated details of the first
electric light system as for his dis
covery of the Incandescent lamp.
.. Basically, the methods of sup
plying light and power to the
public are the same tuday In the
modern electric system as those
which he developed In the old
Pearl street plant. ' -
Furthermore, the work of elec
trifying the United States has to a
large extent fullen upon the shoul
ders of men who were trained by
Edison in the pioneer nays, and
today many of these men are still
active in the development of the
industry. :' N
It Is no exaggeration to say that,
considering the contribution which
electricity has made to mass prn-
Purinton Is chief pilot. The latter
has had several years flying exper
ience and is regarded us one of
the best pilots on the' Pacific coast
for private . passenger carrying
purposes. The Copper King com
pany gives a complete flying
course and is In a position to give
short and long flights at any time.
Its headquarters are now at the
new airport. -

j the comforts anil conveniences of
jthe home, Thomas Edison, directly
J ami indirectly, lias done more to
iralHO standards of living thruout
the world than any other mall
since history begun.

I. VIEWS
NEW . ERA ELECTRICITY
John D. Rockefeller, Jr., views
the celebration of tho anniversary
as on occasion for counting the
blessings which the invention has
bestowed upon mankind.
"Thomas A. Edison's Invention
of' the Incandescent lamp fifty
years ago was much more than a
scientific Invention. It was the
beginning of a new era In electric
ity, b natural force having Infinite
possibilities of usefulness was to
be. harnessed by man and made to
serve him In countless ways. This
celebration of Light's Clolden Jubl-
, lee leaves us to reflect upon the
blessings which the electric light
has brought to millions upon mil
lions of people throughout the
world."
