' FORT MYERS. FlR.. Feb. 20. '
TP) Henry Ford the philoso-'
.ner. the Idealist, with an artist s
view of the unity of the universe. '
waa revealed in an Interview with
the United Press today at his,
winter home here. j
Happiness Formula
Ford gave his formula for '
happiness. He picked out
Thomas A. Edison, his winter
neighbor, and long time friend
fis an examplo of a truly harpy
man. He traced the course of
Edison's life and showed why he
believed the SI year old Inventor
as one of the happiest of be
ings although he may not be
lieve it himself. '
Ford tapped on his desk with
a pencil and said:
Ambition and Hard Work
"You ask my formula for
happy life. It is ambition ami
hard work. Show me a man
who Is deeply interested in his
work one who is not working
for pay day and I will show
you a happy man."
Ford generalized still further,
before driving home his point
that Edison was an example of
a happy man.
"We are put on this earth to
work and In work rests our hap
piness." he declared.
Cites Edison As Happy
The motor magnate, who
agrees with his crony on almost
everything, imparted In the in
terview that they disagree on
the number of happy persons in
the world. In his birthday in
terview, Feb. 11, Edison said
he was not acquainted with any
one who was happy.
". "Mr, Edison does not think
anyone Is happy Ford said. "I '
hare a little different idea about
it. I will put him up as an i
example of happiness." j
"I think that work and a per
son's interest in work brings
about more true happiness than
any other one thing. j
Aniibitlon Hupplne
' ''Ambition to do great things
to that end? Is surely tho hat-'
plness of any human life. Look
at Mr. Edison for example for
jie is the finest example I know.
He Is happy In his work. He
forgets everything else. He sees
nothing ele and he lives for
nothing else. And.auore all else
he is happy himself despite the
fact he told newspapermen that
he does not know a happy man."
"You might, inquire why Mr.
Edison is so hatpy and how he
obtained his h piness." Ford
continued. "Weil, as a boy he
was happy. He had good times
In boyacwl and be often talks
about them. As a young man
lie was happy as a telegraph
operator, a newspaper editor and
finally a young inventor. He
was happy simply because he was
always working towards a goal.
Incentive To Work
"He always had an Incentive
to work. His thoughts were oc
cupied by visions. He ha 1
dreams of turning night Into day.
He made th03e dreams come true
with the electric llRht. He had
visions of the reproduction of i
voice end sound on a record. '
He worked until those visions
were realities.
"As a matter of fact, he has
always been thoroughly happv in
llis work. He h-s had great am-
billons since boyhood and I think 1
those ambitions made him a
happy man."
Hoarding Monry Iin,
Ford then turned to discussion
of his formula for a happy life
ambition and hard work." !
- "Hoarding money Is a bad '
practice for young men. I don't
believe In It I think that a1
"young man should Invert t,!l the
money he can earn In himself.
Ilo should spend it en his edtieu-!
tlon and the things that go to :
make him a bettor man. When !
he reaches middle ae is the '
time to give thuught to saving
tor declining years. I
"Every boy Bhould be given
a fair chance at happiness. When
a boy reac.es 14 or 13 years of.
age and shows a tendency to
delve Into experiments, or do a
little more work than hn Is paid
for doing, you can put him down
as a -prospect of UHeful manhod."
Compliment Kill- in
Edison, according to Ford,
"has done ni:ro fur mankind ;
than any other man." He .said ,
he was an example of the "boy ;
who made good."
"He has ambitions and even
at the nge of 8 2, he is working j
night and day on experiments
