Before that step was taken by the. American government, Mi Edison had been named by Jose-phtis Daniels, then Secretary ot the Navy, head of the Naval Con- I suiting Board, the membership ot . wnicn inciuaea a score oi Amen cans pre-eminent in the field jof inventive research. At the tlnn J Edison was working nearly 18 j hours a day to help overcome the j handicap with which hl3 own Jn-jdustrle were confronted, but he said he was "not too busy to lenn a hand to Uncle Sam." Later when (he war became an actual part of the nation's business he devoted ihls entire time In his laboratory land aboard a vessel provided by ithe Navy Department to govern ment problems of the war and continued those activities unti' the signing of the armistice. Mr. Edison turned In his lattr years to a new field of endeavor devoting a great deal of his tlnw to Investigations and experiment looking toward the production of rubber from plants, shrubs and bushes in the United States in or der to meet a possible national emergency and to give the rubber trade a new "miracle" to round out his career of invention. Thomas Alva Edison was born at Milan, Ohio, February 11. 1847 the son of Samuel and Nancy El liot Edison. His ancerstors emi grated from Holland to the United States in- 1730. The family of the Inventor was noted especially on his father'5"slde for longevity. His great-grandfater, a prosperous New York banker of Revolutionary times, lived to be 101, and his grandfather, 102. His father was 94 when he died. Family Lone-Lived CommcntinK on that family re cord wheri 'he was 76, Mr. Edison said he was only In middle age and "I don't expect to lower the fam lly average." Mr. Edison's mother, who was born in New England, had been a teacher in a Canadian high school and from her he received most of his early education. It has been recorded that Edison spent not more than two months altogether in school. About the age ot 12 he engaged in a variety of business enterprises, Including newsboy on the Grand Trunk Railway between rort Huron and Detroit, proprietoi of a newsstand and book store and of a vegetable market, and cm ploying 11 boys to assist him In these various activities At 15 he turned to Journalism and with some old equipment purchased from the Detroit Free Press, set up his shop in the baggage car of his train There he published the Orand Trunk Herald, said to have been the first newspaper published on board a train. This venture con tinued for nearly a year and was suspended when he- was denied further use ot t)e baggage car.

Mich., where he snatched the young son of the station agent from in front of a train. In gratitude, the tather taught Edison telegraphy. When he became proficient as an operator his experience proved an aid to his natural bent for scientific work. The Increased knowledge of the possibllitcs of electricity which he had ganed from telegraphy Impelled him to delve further into its mysteries and into the work which eventually made him famous the world over. After he learned telegraphy, Mr. Edison became an operator for the Western Union at Port Huron, Mich., and later night operator for the Orand Trunk Railway at Stratford Junction. Canada. Edison left his Job at Stratford Junction In haste without even the formality ot a resignation when he permitted a train, which! he was directed to stop, to pass by the station. Taking time to reply to the order, he found upon reaching the station platform that the train had gone by. A disastrous collision was averted only becaus? the engineers ot the two trains travelling toward each other on -ralghtaway track were able to on thfm in time. In 1373. Mr. Edison married Mary O.
