Kelly celebrated itis Seth birthday today with a halfrueft? glance backward \at what might have happened if he'd taken out a paten on the steam buggy he invented and built in 1883, in Blyth, Oct, Sn Toranta at the 'Munic'pai ' lec. trical Utilities conference, Mr. Kelly reoalIed in an interview that "It may not have been the first horseless carriage, but the earliest patent date I, could ever find was 1886. So' it would have been my invention. - "My car travelled about 12 or 13 miles an hour," he said, "It didn't need a barn. Farmers said they'd frill me if I didn't stop seasons their wives and their livestock. So 1 dis- mantled it," Born in Morris county; near Blyth, Mr. Kelly's active life began when he ran away from 1101115 at the age of seven and went to live with his gandparents, where he stayed. "That is how 1 learned to smoke," he .said. "It was my job to 1111 and light their clay .pipes for my grandparents each night when they were in bed." He has since given up the habit. ,For 46 years with the Goderioh hydro -commission, Mr. Kelly says. he has "no :thought of retiring." He believes his present good health is due to simple,' active 'eatery life, "with not too much rich food.' • Air Force Officer --- Air Facing Charges . WING.FIOM, Feb, 10 -Flt.
