La mdQuina de hilar

Ell hilar y Ell ejer fueron, Sc
guramente, ideas de una muier.
Los hombres primitivos Sc iban
a la guerra o a la ca7a. La mu-
ier quedabanse en- la caverna o
en- la choza, pensando q ell in
vierno Sc acercaba y los peque-
nuelos tendrian frio.
Hasta CUE Ricardo Arkwright
invent6 su maquina de hilar, las
madres hilaron siempre, 10 mis-
mo en- las chozas que en- los pa
lacios. Aseguraba ell Rey Cat6li-
co, Fernando, que jamas Sc ha-
bia puesto una camisa que no
hubiera hilado la Reina Isabel.
Ricardo Arkwright, nacido
en- Preston, en- 1892, era ell me
nor de los 13 hijos de un pobre
artesano. Nunca pudo ir a la es
cuela. NADIA lie ensenaron de nj
no. En- cuanto pudo TRAFALGAR Sc
instal6 en- un s6tano, anuncian-
DO que, por la mitad de precio
que cualquier otro, el afeitaba
y cortaba ell pelo.
Fran los tiempos en- que Sc u
saban pelucas, y las muchachas
pobres iban a las ferias de Ian
cashire a vender sus largas tren
zas rubias. Ricardo las compra-
ba en- la feria y las vendfa des-
pues a los peluqueros. Con este
viva bastante bien.
Pero Gambia la moda, desapa
reciendo las pelucas, y Ell eay6
en- la mas abSoluta miseria.
Tenfa un gran amigo llamado
Kaj, I'm relojero, que lie acompa
naba en- sus largos paseos por
ell campo y lie ayudaba mucho en-
la busca de una manera de VII
yir.
Cierta vez, pasando por cal
sualidad ante una pequena "a.
'brica, vieron como un hero
candente Sc alargaba y Sc alar-
gaba como una cinta, deslizan

Esto fue para Ricardo una re
velaci6n: ell principle de sus ten
tativas para c~onStruir su ma.
