Many men of visioa have, of course, contributed to this scientific advance, but Edison more than any other one man, personifies the progress of the era. In 1847, when Edison was born, America was still a vast pioneering country. Adventurers, lured west by gold, jogged overland by stage# coaches. In the cities of the east flickering gas ips lit the drawing rooms,<baK oil lamps flour«~ idled throughout the parlors of the "back coun*- try." This was the world of the youthful Edison. Today, through the development of his 1,110 patented inventions, Edison is a dominant influ* «nce in all of our lives. During the century sine* his birth, we have come to accept as common* place the incandescent and fluorescent lamp, talking pictures, movies, phonographs and scores of other direct results of his genius. Less well known, but of great importance, were, for instance, Edison's development of the basic principles of electronics and die invention of the long rotary kiln which made large scale 'f reality. 1" Even during Edison's lifetime, standards of •; living throughout the world rose spectacularly. As Edison's work went on,his inventions created r jobs, not only in the electrical industry but also in many other industries. A recent estimate shows that about one working person in nine now owes his job to an idea which originated in the mind of Thomas Alva Edison. Only by imagining oneself living in this worii without the wealth of advantages bestowed by Edison can we fully understand and evaluate the ^personal legacy which this great American left to .Jeach of us. Businessmen charting the advance of |their firms, homcmakers flicking the switch which f takes the gloom out of washday... people every* vwhere, at movies, listening to radios, phono* graphs or merely reading in their homes, enjqy a better life because of him. Today, we join the world in celebrating dHf centennial anniversary of the birth of Edison. We are proud to be among the industries which today carry forward the developments he "'m :4 * - f
