Thirty-two Thousand toothpicks
and plenty Of airplane glue have
been transformed into a ferris wheel,
tower and bridge by Edward G.
Violet, mechanical assistant engi-
meek at the Library Of Congress.
Working only with his hands, the
56-year-old World War I veteran
assembled his structures at home
during evenings after work. He
used no plans except an illustration
and his own knowledge of structural
engineering to guide him, but Mr..
Violett's sturdy miniatures are COM
plete in every detail. The 5-foot
tower, similar to the Eiffel Tower
in Paris, Is electrically lighted and
the ferris wheel, with its swinging
chairs. is lighted and wired to an
electric motor that turns it.
1t took three months and $4,000
toothpicks to make the ferris wheel,
Mr.. Violet said. He finished the
tower after two andss half months
but used only $500 picks. The
smaller bridge. painted silver and
with a moving center span, Is COM
posed of about 1900 picks.
Mr.. Violett's hobby used to be
making model boats and airplanes.
He said he once made a complete
ocean liner with removable decks.
But nieces and nephews to whom he
gave his models regarded them only
as toys and they soon went the way
OF all playthings. His toothpick
models, however, have had q large
and appreciative audience, he said.
Library employees and visitors crowd
ed into the Library substation to see
the Christmas display that included
his work.
A native of Alexandria, Mr.. Violet
went to work at II as q pipe-fitter
with contracting firm and served
with the Army in World War I. He
came to the library 18 years ago as q
helper and, learning engineering as
he worked, now operates the substa-
ton and adjoining refrigeration
room. He moved to Washington -
years ago and lives at 1135 New
Jersey avenue Sc.
Mr. Violet is working on q model
of derrick. He hopes sometime to
build miniature Mount Vernon out
Of toothpicks but said that 80 far
he has been unable to get a good

scured by trees.
Away from the noisy generators
which he tends, Mr.. Violet likes to
work on his projects for an hour or
two after work in his upstairs study.
