His inventions and experiments are known so widely that it is futile to enumerate them here. We are in contact every day of our lives with instruments, devices and comforts that owe their being to the genius of Thomas A. Edison. Milan, Ohio, was the town of his birth—February 11, 1847 the date. He received some instruction from his mother, and at 12 years of age began in the battle of life by selling newspapers on the Grand Trunk Railway. Already young Edison was tinkering with machinery and developing those interests that in later life made him such a world- He learned telegraphy and became an operator at various places in the United States and Canada, and soon Edison is an inveterate worker, at it all the time, and allows himself at most tax hours sleep at night. He be lieves that if we all worked more and slept less we would be happier and healthier. Most people find more sleep than Edison necessary—but his constitution is such that he needs very little. Work absorbs him from mom till night, and he thrives on it The small-town boy among other things has given us the megaphone, the phonograph, the incindescent lamp and light system, and motion pictures; he has received patents for over 1,000 inventions, including many war inventions for the United States Government. His career has been as dazzling as the electric light he invented. Those who deplore the lack of opportunity in Amorican small towns should cast a glance toward the distinguished and esteemed genius known as Thomas Alva Edison. He is an im mortal.

The members of the general assembly were elected at the same time I was.

Under the law of the state the function of the Senate is to* confirm oi reject — not to dictate — appoint ments. Keeping in mind my promise to the people who had elected me, I declined to make the appointment. Finding that I actually in tended to keep my campaign promises, my appointments woe rejected, mnd, through the effort* of thi* bloc, the old chairman wa* permitted to been reorganized. It has the same old members and the same old ideas that the affairs of Georgia should be admin-j istered in the way that will benefit them most personally. Hot—they have a new leader. I have been in office only thirteen months. During that time I have been hampered at every turn by this Senate bloc formed at the very organiza tion of the Senate.
