and explained the gulf stream.
Franklin helped the colonies to declare
their independence and secured the treaty

United States. He also devised the
American postal system. He died at the

n ENJAMIN FRANKLIN was an Ordf-
IA nary man with an extraordinary
- supply of common sense who flour
ished in the eighteenth century and IS
still regarded as one of the finest Of
American products.
Franklin was born in Boston, but was
one OF the few Boston wise men to sue
coed in getting away from that city.
His family was not distinguished, and
when he left Boston. after having run a
newspaper with more brllhance than
success, no committee OF city officials
ap~eaTed to bid him goodbye.
Franklin arrived in Philadelphia with
enough money left to buy two rolls OF
bread, and paraded the town wearing one
loaf under his arm and eating the other.
This successfully guaranteed him from
Philadelphia society and he was enabled
to put all his time into the printing
business. with such success that he was
sent to London in 1924 by the governor
to get a printing outfit. He worked for
Is months in Il London printing house
and was probably the most eminent
employee that London journalism ever
had, though England has not yet walked
up to this TACT.
Franklin then returned to Philadelphia
and purchased the Gazette, which he be-
gan to edit with such success that he fire.
quently had to spend all day making
change for eager subscribers. 1t might
be well to mention here that at this time
he was only % years old. having been
born January II. 1706, and having been
a full-fledged editor at the age of IS.
Genius often consists in getting an early
start and keeping started.
