Some history and facts since year of 1910

THE YEAR IS 1910This will boggle your mind, I know it did mine! ************ ********* ***********The year is 1910 One hundred years ago. What a difference a century makes! Here are some statistics for the Year 1910:************ ********* ************ The average life expectancy for men was 47 years.Fuel for this car was sold in drug stores only. Only 14 percent of the homes had a bathtub.Only 8 percent of the homes had a telephone.There were only 8,000 cars and only 144 miles of paved roads.The maximum speed limit in most cities was 10 mph.The tallest structure in the world was the Eiffel Tower !The average US wage in 1910 was 22 cents per hour.The average US worker made between $200 and $400 per year.A competent accountant could expect to earn $2000 per year, A dentist $2,500 per year, a veterinarian between $1,500 and $4,000 per year, and a mechanical engineer about $5,000 per year.More than 95 percent of all births took place at HOME.Ninety percent of all Doctors had NO COLLEGE EDUCATION!Instead, they attended so-called medical schools, many of whichWere condemned in the press AND the government as 'substandard.'Sugar cost four cents a pound.Eggs were fourteen cents a dozen.Coffee was fifteen cents a pound.Most women only washed their hair once a month, and used Borax or egg yolks for shampoo.Canada passed a law that prohibited poor people from entering into their country for any reason.The Five leading causes of death were:1.

StrokeThe American flag had 45 stars.The population of Las Vegas , Nevada , was only 30!Crossword puzzles, canned beer, and iced tea hadn't been invented yet.There was no Mother's Day or Father's Day.Two out of every 10 adults couldn't read or write and Only 6 percent of all Americans had graduated from high school.Marijuana, heroin, and morphine were all available over the counter at the local corner drugstores.Back then pharmacists said, 'Heroin clears the complexion, gives buoyancy to the mind,Regulates the stomach and bowels, and is, in fact, a perfect guardian of health'( Shocking? DUH! )Eighteen percent of households had at least one full-time servant or domestic help.There were about 230 reported murders in the ENTIRE U.S.A. ! I am now going to forward this to someone else without typing it myself.From there, it will be sent to others all over the WORLD - all in a matter of seconds!Try to imagine what it may be like in another 100 years. IT STAGGERS THE MIND


I double dare each of you not to delete this before you read it all the way to the end. I was born 12 years after the year of 1910. I even had a 1910 ford, I have watched the most of this as it happened or developed.

When Iran develops the nuclear bomb and with the help of Russia, China and some other countries that hates America and Israel we will fall back to the nineteenth century, so all of you better learn old history of the nineteenth century, I may not be around to tell you how to survive it. Have a good day.

GOD BLESS AMERICA---IN GOD WE TRUST
