A young boy enters a barbershop and the barber whispers to his customer, "This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you."
The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, "Which do you want, son?"
The boy takes the quarters and leaves.
"What did I tell you?" said the barber. "That kid never learns!"
Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store. "Hey, son! May I ask you a question? Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?"
The boy licked his cone and replied, "Because the day I take the dollar, the game's over!"

Electric store lightingIn 1878, the first electric lighting in an American store was installed, using eight dynamos to run 28 Brush arc lamps* at John Wanamaker's extensive “Grand Depot” department store, Philadelphia, Pa. In 1875, he had bought the Pennsylvania Railroad depot for $500,000 and converted it into his innovative Grand Depot department store. The lamps had two sets of electrodes working alternately to lengthen the operating period. (patented by the maker, Charles F. Brush, on 2 Sep 1879, U.S. patent No. 219,208). The arc lamps gave a steadier light, but gas-lighting was retained as back-up. By 1888, Wanamaker had 355 arc lamps and 80 incandescent lamps*. He followed electric lights with ventilation fans. The electric displays drew customers.« |
