OUR CHIEF AMONG WORLD INVENTORS
By Everett Simpson

Thomas Edison is one of the great est men in the world and probably the greatest inventor that ever lived
 He was born some sixty years ago and began life as poor boy in Ohio. He had hardly been to school but two months in his life. His mother was school teacher and taught the i'm portant things which he might never have learned in school; namely, to think for himself.
 When he was seven he began to sell papers on the Grand Trunk rail road in Michigan. Every spare minute he had he spent at his laboratory fussing with chemicals and trying to invent.
 The first position he took was as a telegraph operator at Indianapolis. when he was eighteen years old, and at night he used to receive newspaper reports for practice. He lost many place because of his passion for i'm provement. He also often kept re- ports waiting while he experimented with new devices for receiving them.
 His latest invention is the torpedo destroyer which he has turned over to the United States. Every one hopes it will bring this great war to an end.

"CASTLES" BUILT BY SEWARD PUPILS

The third, fourth and fifth grades inspired by "The Little Womens' air castles have been building extensively this week. We are very ambitious.
 The girls castles are mostly musi- cal ones. Four express a desire to play in moving picture shows and at dances. Others ask to be artists, nurses, dressmakerS, school teachers and actresses. One daughter of a lawyer asks to be in a circus, and the daughter of a banker wants to be the richest lady and have beautiful dresses. One little girl wants to ba a nun because she "already knows how they operate"
 The boys list includes a medical missionary, a writer naval and army officers, movie photographers auto racers, aviatorS, engineers, a faumer who wants to raise tropical fruits, a master mechanic, cowboy.
 A fifth grader asks to be "a very famous general in the United States army. He wants ito win many bat ties with soldiers who will not run before the enemy, but stay and beat them most of the time"
