TREMENDOUS TRIFLES
THE FRAME AND
THE CHICKEN-COOP THAI 1
REVOLUTIONIZED COTTON
Several seemingly improbable
events combined to bring about the
invention vice that of .radically the cotton-gin, a de
of changed thi
economy the Southern States. It
fected was an embroidery frame he per
that brought out a tutor’s
inventive genius and an incident
arising from a chicken-coop that
suggested the principle of the cot
ton gin.
After graduating from Yale. Eli
j ^distinguished 1 ' GeorgiTplantation
family. Although ingenious, he had
I never cal inventions attempted elaborate mechani
before and. as he
said, “had never seen cotton seed”
before leaving his native Massachu
setts.
The mistress of ft;s
ardently practiced the art of __ em
broidery . and the
tutor found that
parts of the finished work were
damaged by the ineptly-constructed
j frame. He volunteered to make one
that would eliminate this defect and
succeeded. This was so popular witl
the household members that, some
time later, when the discussion ran
to for conjecture about better methods
his separating cotton from the seed,
mistress casually recommended
him. “There, gentlemen,” she said,
“apply to Mr. Whitney. He c in
make anything.”
Thus, Whitney found himself
\ with a challenge he was obliged to
meet. That midnight, unable to
deep, sir he went to the window for
and observed in the moonlight
a cat who, having killed a chicken,
, through was desperately the trying to puli it
coop. The narrow bars
would only allow a mass of feath
E ers thoughts . to come through. Whitney’s
turned to an iron claw
ihat would puil cotton through fine
nesh, leaving behind the seeds. A
week later, he had the first rough
draft of the cotton gin. A year later
he had produced a successful ma
chine.
The economic effects of this
great invention art incalculable. It
was produced by a private tutor
who found his inventive talents In
an his .final embroidery inspiration frame and received
from his obser
vation around a Georgia chicken

TREMENDOUS TRIFLES
THE PLUNDERED BEANS
THAT STARTED
COFFEE HOUSES
A tent filled with sacks of green
coffee beans, the stores of a re*'
body treating Turkish army, which no
wanted except one Pole, was
the introduction of Coffee into Vi
enna and the subsequent coffee
houses that sprang up to become
models for the rest of the world.
The Pole, Franz George Kol
schitzky, Turkish a former interpreter for
the army, won undying
Eame for saving the besieged Vi
enna from the Turks and the sub-,
(equent introduction of coffee from
the booty left behind by the de
feated army.
In 1683, Mohammed IV sent
300,000 Turks against Christendom
to destroy the disbelievers. Vienna
was besieged, and someone was
needed to carry messages to the
lier Emperor of Poland for help. Ear
the Emperor had given his
word to help Austria. A volunteer
was asked and Franz Kolschitzky,
familiar with Turkish customs, ac
cepted the risky mission.
In a Turkish uniform, the Pole
passed through the enemy lines and
brought help from the Polish army
across the Danube. In the ensuing
battle, the Turks were routed, leav
ing behind large quantities of
coffee. Stores, including one tent filled with
When the booty was divided,
none of the Viennese wanted the
strange body knew bags of green beans. No
what to do with them.
Kolschitzky for them hts spoke up and asked
Vienna. as reward for saving
“If nobody wants these
tacks, I will take them."
With his knowledge of Turkish
coffee making, he began a door to
door business with cups on a
wooden platter. Later he opened
the first coffee house in the city.
And- the patrons of the beverage
were immediate and lasting.

is going to improve on all of them.
Speaking to the Ingleside Kiwanis
Club in Macon recently, here’s how
the governor put it:
“We have had past state adm
inistration -whose good works have
been marked by constructive acco
mplishments. Your new admistra
tion will retain and improve
best of the past and the good of
the present, and mould them
the best four years Georgia bas
ever had.”
Repeating that his adminitration
“is dedicated to making our state’s
people’s government, “Gov. Mad
dox said “I seek the involvment
of all citizens in our efforts to dev
elop plans to push Georgia toward
a brighter, more properous future.”
Regarding free enterprise and
local self-government, the' govern
nor said:
“I am a great believer in - and
staunch supporter of - our system
of free enterprise. There is no den
ying the fact that if this system is
to continue to provide for our nat
ion the great economic advance
ments it has in the past then busi
nessmen must accept their respon
sibilities to keep alive and free
from governmental interference.
“If we fail in this - if the parti
cipants of free enterprise do not
provide the leadership necessary
to develop their own cities and
their own states - we run k great
risk of having others to do it for
