Edison Has Finished His Talking
Moving Pictures, Which He Says
Are Wonderful.

Edison Has Finished His Talking
Moving Pictures, Which He Says
Are Wonderful.
Thomas A. Edison, who sailed on
his first European trip in twenty
one years was accompanied by his
SON, Charles Edison, and will meet
Mrs. Edison and his daughter
Miss Madeline Edison, in London,
after which the family will make a
seven weeks automobile trip on the
Continent.
Mr.. Edison said that he was GO
Ing abroad for a chance to worry a
bit because he was so busy here he
didn't have time for worries. He
said that he had just finished work
on his talking pictures, of which he
said zoo sets were now finished and
were wonderful. He advised his in
terviewers to see and hear them.
1t has been Mr.. Edison's habit
to take a vacation in Florida in the
winter. Laste winter he was too
busy and his European trip, there
lore, is in the nature of a postponed
vacation. He does not expect to
do any lecturing on the other side,
nor Is he expecting to meet any of
them eminent scientists over there,
as he did on his last European
trip.
When he was asked il he was
doing anything to help along the
science of aviation Mr.. Edison
laughed and said he had not done
anything in this line since some
thirty years ago he went into the
thing at the suggestion of James
Gordon Bennett. He got the idea
of flying down all right but could
not find an engine that was salts
factory Finally he invented an
explose motor with guncotton in
stead of the present gasoline for
the motive force. Here he laugh
ed again, and said that he had not
interested himself in aeroplane in
ventions since.
Mr.. Edison looked well and said
that he was still working sixteen
hours day-that he had worked
that number of hours the day be-
fore sailing. He never intended to
retire, he said, and didn't see
why man couldn't live to be $50
years old by following his system Of
proper eating, sleeping six hours
night soundly and eating what he
wishes though that is not much.
Agreeable work. he said, never
hurt any one, and / am no eXcep-
tion to the rule" Mr.. Edison said
said that he was better able to
work now than he was at 25 and
was having a good time working.
