NEW YORK. February 1o.-Thomas
Alva Edison today stands on the
threshold of the realm of the octo-
rensrians. Tomorrow is his eightieth
birthday.
A reception in his home. Llewelyn
Park. East Orange, n. j.. which Henry
Ford a close friend, will attend, and
the annual meeting in Newark OF the
Edison Pioneers, a group of men as
Eociated with the wizard of MEMO
Park for many years, will be special
features of the day.
The tiny red brick laboratory IN
West Orange, where Edison mas peeh
blazing scientific trails for 40 years,
has been prepared to receive cable
and wireless greetings from all parts
of the world, which already nave
started to pour in.
Tribute From France.
From Edward Brandy, noted physl-
cist. in Paris, comes message;
thought Edison was an old man. re
is a mere youngster. Pro1. brd 4I5s
Is 50 He continues: II am sure Edl-
son feels as l do; namely. that in our
work our age never changes.
Edison still thinks about life as he
did when he was a newsboy on the
Grand Trunk Railroad. At that time
he rugged M a laboratory in a bag
gage car to save his spare time. Kill
ing time is said to be crime with
him, for 1t is 1.-The only real capltai
man has" to his way of thinking.
The daily routine of the noted in
I1Ny IA
Meadowcroft, a laboratory assistant.
Works Throughout Day.
HE gets up about $50 in the morn
ing" said Mr.. Meadowcroft. and
comes down to the laboratory about 3
or 10. Then he's at his experiments
all day, quitting about or pm. He
goes home and has dinner and the rest
of the evening, say until IL or II
o'clock, is spent in reading. He reads
prodigiously."
Callers at the West Orange labora-
tory will not be told what new inven-
lions Edison is working on. First
catch your fish, is his motto, then
talk about it..
It was explained he is generally
working on 20 or more different lines
of experimentation.
He drives them tandem, SO to
speak, the assistant said. I'VE can
not say what these things specifically
are. Besides this new work, he is all
the time pushing on experimental
work in the refinment of old inven-
lions, and his studies never stop"
Predictions Come True.
It is pointed out his predictions
have a way of coming true. Long
before Count Zeppelin launched his
cirigibles. Edison, in an interview. had
expressed the opinion that men would
navigate the air in "cigar-shaped"
bags.
His sense of practically. it is said,
has kept him out of Spiritualism, about
which he viii not talk.
f'Let's find out about the natural,
he has said. There are an infinite
number of things, no doubt, that
would startle us if we knew about
them. 7 1t is silly when he know almost
nothing about the natural world to
begin talking about the supernatural.
Really, of course, there is no such
thing as the supernatural. Whatever
is is a part of nature"
