The Key West citizen. [volume] (Key West, Fla.) 1879-current, 1952-07-09

If on had lived any time be-
fore or for 80 years thereafter
this date in 1919, chances are you
would have made all your
clothes b, hand. However, on
that date Elias Howe the invent
or of The sewing machine was
born. Also, after this date. in
1846 you didn't have to have a
passport to &c. into California
although there are those who
swear that right now you still
nave to! Anyhow, in l846 the
United States Flag was raised in
Monterey, and It became a part
Of u. S. territory.
We don't know exactly what
date Air Conditioning became a
fact in this great land, but it
sure was a boon to all of Dixie,
and it makes shopping a real
pleasure these warm July days.
We know, because we've been
shopping!

A friend of ours in the writin'
corner called "48 States of Mind"
who has been reading the Ma
tional Patent Cou. lis Invention
News which is an inspiring sheet
aimed at arousing inventive
genius, says that there is lots OF
gossip about gadgets that defy
human error. However, as far as
h can see, every time some
smart guy comes out with a
foolproof gimmick, nature comes
along an. brushes it off b. pro-
ducing an inventionproof fool.
My friend Is a real smart man.
