Edison's Cousin Living in His Old Home in Ohio Says He'll Beat Subs

1 I rf it iiPMpf Mto

NORWALK, O, Oct. 27. In the little brick house in Milan, O., near here,, the birthplace of Thomas Edison, there still lives Mrs. Nancy Wadsworth, the inventor's favorite cousin, with her daughter. Mrs. Wadsworth declares that Edison's mission on earth is to

solve the U-boat problem. "Tom will do it as certain as night follows day," says the venerable little lady. "He has done wonderful things, but the most wonderful is yet to be done." Mrs. Wadsworth tells how she remembers well the day that Thomas, her cousin, was born, and that in his childhood he was not strong and had been kept from school on the family doctor's advice. Edison's mother had

been a school teacher and when little Tom was . old enough she began bis instruction. The Edisons moved from the little brick house in Milan when .Thomas was seven years old and took up their residence in a larger and finer house in Port Huron,-Mich., where the elder Edison's business had called him. The little home now occupied by Mrs. Wadsworth passed Into other hands and for sixty years or so it was occupied by various tenants. About five years ago Thomas Edison bought it back again and Mrs. Wadsworth, who had lived just across the street, moved in to keep house there. Conveniences and improvements have been added from time fb time, but in most respects it remains just as it was

when the now famous Inventor was toddling about it years ago. "Cousin Nancy," as Mrs. Wadsworth is known to Edison, shows the greatest pride in the famous man she has seen grow from early infancy and there has

been an affectionate companionship be

tween the two for almost seventy years. And at least once a month Mrs.

Wadsworth receives a letter from her cousin, not a typewritten letter, but a long one in his own hand telling of the many little common place affairs of his daily life that are sure to interest Cousin Nancy. On the wall in Mrs. Wadsworth's sitting room is a picture of the Edison mansion in New Jersey, far more elegant but not near so dear to Edison as the little brick' house that was his birthplace.

A big producing company wanted to make a ten-reel production of a western story adapted from a well known novel. A director was given an all-star cast and assigned to the task. When the picture was finally completed and submitted to the producers there was a genuine indoor riot. The piece was "that" bad. There was no chance to use It But did the company discard the film altogether? Not in this day of economy! It was reassembled, with the result that, one Sve-reel feature replete with "thrills," one two-reel "western" and one single-reel comedy were offered for sale. The remaining two reels were saved for a "retake" of the original story.
