Edison's retirement is great shock

A "dress reform" Scotchman has
written to the London Press suggest
ing that an effort be made. to induce
Englishmen to wear kills, especially
in cold weather. He declares that
anyone who has ever worn the kilt
will never forget the comfort and
warmth it affords. Britishers are
pretty slow to adopt innovations, es.
pecially in wearing apparel, but if the
kilt possesses the qualities claimed
the Scot should experience no difficulty
in introducing it into the states oil
Washington, Oregon and California.
