Since the 1920s was a time of celebration, there were many fads. People loved to dance, especially the Charleston, Fox-trot, and the shimmy. Dance marathons were something everyone went to every weekend. The longest dance record ever recorded was a record of 3 weeks of dancing. Another fad of the 1920's was the radio. People "tuned" in every day to listen to music, as jazz, sports and live events. A favorite for listening to jazz was "the king of jazz", Louie Armstrong. The latest fashion fad was the flapper, a fad for women. The movie was also the latest thing. The start of 3-D movies was in the 1920's.
 * Albert Einstein**
 * Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955) was born on March 14, 1879, in Germany. In 1905, Einstein published his theory of relativity in "On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies." Among his other publications included //The Meaning of Relativity//. His research eventually earned him worldwide fame and a Nobel Prize in Physics in 1921. He was born in Germany but did not stay there long. Einstein, who was a patent clerk and Jewish, immigrated to the U.S. in 1933 after Adolf Hitler seized control of Germany. In the U.S. he taught at Princeton University in New Jersey. In 1939, Einstein helped to inform Franklin Roosevelt, then President of the U.S., that Germany was possibly creating atomic weapons. The Advisory Committee on Uranium was created and the Manhattan Project, as the plan to develop atomic bombs was code-named, went into effect. ||


 * Vitamin E**


 * In 1922, two American scientists, Dr. Herbert McLean Evans and K.S. Bishop discovered vitamin E. This discovery was an important one. Vitamin E serves as an antioxidant and is found in foods such as margarine, peanut oil, sunflower seeds, walnuts, and several others. It protects body tissue and polyunsaturated fats from oxidation. Gladys Anderson Emerson, another American scientist, would later go on to make the vitamin in pure form. ||


 * **Tutankhamen's Tomb is Found (1922)** ||


 * On November 4, 1922, an English archaeologist and Egyptologist named Howard Carter and Egyptologist George Herbert (Lord Carnarvon) found the long-sought grave of Tutankhamen or Tutankhamun. The body of the 18-year old king and his treasure were uncovered after more than 3000 years. Better known as the "boy-king" or "King Tut," Tutankhamen is believed to have become king at age eight or nine. ||


 * **The Arrival of the Baby Austin (1922)** ||


 * Herbert Austin was born in England on November 8, 1866. His credits include creating the first Wolseley motor car and the Austin Motor Company. In 1922, Austin introduced the Austin Seven in Great Britain. The "Baby Austin," as it was nicknamed, allowed several consumers who were previously unable to afford cars to buy one. The car featured four cylinders, a three-speed gearbox, and seated four. Five years prior to his death, Austin gave Lord Rutherford of the Cavendish Laboratory £250,000 for scientific research. Austin died on May 23, 1941. ||


 * **The British Broadcasting Company (BBC) is Created (1922)** ||


 * In October of 1922, the British Broadcasting Company (BBC) was created for the public. Because promotions were restricted, money was earned from people who purchased annual wireless licenses. In December of 1926, the BBC became a public corporation after receiving a Royal Charter. The first television broadcast to the public was made by this company in 1929. The BBC has had world-wide influence on radio and television and is still active today. ||


 * **Innovations in Immunization (1923)** ||


 * The medical field added another accomplishment to its existence during the 1920's. Diphtheria, caused by bacteria, became better controlled in 1923 by newly introduced immunization. Within a year, Albert Calmette and Camille Guerin of France would create Bacillus Calmette Guerin (BCG), a vaccine against TB. ||


 * **Clarence Birdseye and Frozen Food (1925)** ||

He came upon his discovery while working near the Arctic for the American government. Birdseye found that immediately frozen meat kept its flavor. Creating a business in 1922, Birdseye Seafood’s, Inc., he further improved his discovery. His new findings were used to create another company, the General Seafood Corporation. Despite Birdseye's death on October 8, 1956, Birds Eye remained in business and is still functioning today. ||
 * Clarence Birdseye, a naturalist, developed a way of freezing food while maintaining its flavor and nutritional benefits. The frozen foods, packaged in rectangular-shaped containers, became quite handy.


 * **The Scopes Trial (1925)** ||


 * During the 1920's, a courtroom case in the United States changed the public's view of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution forever. This particular trial would also be the first-ever to be broadcast live on radio. In 1925, a Tennessee biology teacher named John Thomas Scopes was put on trial for teaching evolution. In the previous two years, Tennessee had been among several states in the U.S. to have fundamentalists propose laws to make teaching evolution illegal. The American Civil Liberties Union, with Clarence Seward Darrow as its lawyer decided to defend Scopes. On the opposing side, William Jennings Bryan fought for Tennessee and against evolution in the classroom. Despite the fact that Scopes eventually lost a trial that he never testified at and was charged $100.00, Darrow was seen as the superior lawyer. Bryan, a three-time presidential candidate was humiliated and outsmarted. Only five days after the trial had ended, Bryan passed away. The outcome of the "Monkey Trial" was later changed; a technicality was found. ||


 * **John Baird Introduces His Television (1926)** ||

The first American to transmit pictures of a moving object was Charles Francis Jenkins. He accomplished this feat in 1927. ||
 * John Logie Baird, a Scottish engineer, held several jobs throughout his lifetime: shoe shiner, salesman, and electrical engineer. His most appreciated accomplishment, however, is not a clean shoe. It is the Baird Televisor: the first working system of television. While developing his invention, the founder of the Television Development Company became a pioneer when he transmitted the image of a boy in action. In 1926, Baird displayed his breakthrough creation in London at the Royal Institution. Within two years, he would also become the first person to transmit images to and from London and New York. These were not the Scot’s only contributions, however. He also created the stereoscopic television, electrical recordings (of images), and the color television.

In the summer of 1928, Alexander Fleming, a British scientist, discovered green and yellow mold on a culture plate of //Staphylococcus// bacterium. This discovery would eventually earn Fleming and two other scientists, chemist Ernst Boris Chain and pathologist Howard Walter Florey, a Nobel prize in 1945. In 1944, King George VI had knighted Fleming. The mold that Fleming discovered growing on a left-out culture plate had eliminated some of the //Staphylococcus//. Afterwards, he isolated //Penicillin notatum// and cultivated it, finding that the mold was deadly to other bacteria as well. Alexander Fleming had discovered the world's first antibiotic. In 1929, Fleming published a report on penicillin and its antibacterial characteristics. Aside from the discovery, Fleming did not continue work on the antibiotic. Two other scientists, Ernst Chain and Howard Florey, however, went on to purify penicillin for medical purposes. Their advances would rescue the lives of servicemen fighting in World War II. Sir Alexander Fleming was born on August 6, 1881, in Ayrshire, Scotland. He studied at Saint Mary's Hospital Medical School and graduated in 1908. Previous to Fleming's discovery, his research had included attempts at slowing and stopping infections. At the time of his find, the scientist had been working with //Staphylococcus// bacterium, trying to reproduce the works of another researcher. Fleming died of a heart attack on March 11, 1955, in London.

Calvin Coolidge
Calvin Coolidge was inaugurated as president after the death of President Harding. He was easily elected in 1924 when he ran on a basis of order and prosperity. Coolidge made use of the new medium of radio and made radio history several times while president: his inauguration was the first presidential inauguration broadcast on radio; on 12 February 1924, he became the first President of the United States to deliver a political speech on radio, and only ten days thereafter, on 22 February, he also became the first to deliver such a speech from the White House. He is famous for his quotation "The chief business of the American people is business". 

Herbert Hoover
Herbert Hoover was the final president of the 1920s, taking office in 1929. He stated in 1928, "We in America today are nearer to the final triumph over poverty than ever before in the history of any land." The Great Depression started the following year and marked his term in office.

Prohibition
Prohibition was not a new phenomenon in the 1920s. There had been various anti-alcohol campaigns since the colonial period. The Maine Law of 1851, for example, prohibited the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors within the state of Maine. By 1855, thirteen of the thirty-one states had adopted similar prohibition legislation. During the Civil War, moreover, the federal government prohibited alcoholic beverages in the Union Army as a way to ration grain for hungry soldiers. As so often happens in the United States, leaders of this social movement tried to justify their views with scientific evidence. Temperance advocates, for example, founded the //Scientific Temperance Journal// after the Civil War. Schoolchildren's textbooks depicted human organs degenerating from an overabundance of drink. In the 1870s, the Women's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU) promoted the use of public education for the cause of temperance. They succeeded in getting their propaganda in textbooks and, by 1902, every state and territory except Arizona had a law requiring temperance instruction in the schools. The prohibitionists also used eugenics--the study of hereditary improvement of the human race by controlled selective breeding--to bolster their cause. They argued that immigrants were inferior due to the fact that their children had been drinking since a young age.

In July of 1925, Adolf Hitler (1889 - 1945) issued his autobiography. The book, entitled //Mein Kampf// or //My Struggle//, would have a second volume in 1926; the People's Edition appeared in 1930. The book, written while Hitler was imprisoned early in his career, reflected his hatred of Jews, and his belief that Germans were a superior race. Outside of Germany the book was not given much notice, a fact the Allies would soon regret. Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, in Austria. He served time in Germany's armed forces during World War I as a political spy and became a decorated corporal. He served as leader of the German Workers' Party, which would later be renamed the National Socialist German Workers' (Nazi) Party. In 1933, he came to power as chancellor of the Third Reich. Despite Hitler's doing away with democracy, the people of Germany applauded his efforts, for they were weary of the depressed state of affairs that followed Germany's defeat in World War I. After involving his country in a costly second world war, geared to make it the predominant world power, Adolf Hitler committed suicide on April 30, 1945.

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial','sans-serif'">In 1924, 14 buffalo were taken to Catalina Island off the coast of California. They were used in a movie, "The Vanishing American." The buffalo were left behind, the herd grew larger, and today about 250 still roam free on the island. During later years, the population has been "controlled".
