William Gladstone was a prominent politician when William Turner started a business in Sheffield smelting and refining gold and silver.

The ordinance basically lim- its the location of off street parking facilities to the same plot or parcel of land they are intended to serve, with a few exceptions. Exceptions must be okayed by the board following a public hearing. It also places restrictions on the appearance of the parking lot and access routes to the lots. For example the ordinance reads that in no case shall single fam'ly residentially zon- ed property be used for drive- ways for access to the park- ing area.

  • The Cutlery Story
    The Cutlery Story A Brief History of the Romance and Manufacture of Cutlery from the Earliest Times to Modern Methods of Manufacture Pocket Knives --- Sportsman's Knives Professional and Industrial Knives and Household Cutlery with a Short Summary on the Selection and Care of Knives and Minimum Requirements of Today's Kitchen by Lewis D. Bement published by THE ASSOCIATED CUTLERY INDUSTRIES OF AMERICA DEERFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS 1950 FOREWORD ~-'/~ Have you ever stopped to consider what life would be like if we had no knives? Even a casual glance at the history of man reveals that the invention and perfection of the knife, which is in effect to say all cutting tools, freed man from endless toil, made possible his thousand and one uses of natural resources, and thereby his evolution from savage to contemporary man. Modern industry, which makes the things with which we work and live, uses knives every hour of the day. The individual workman would be helpless without cutting tools. The housewife, without whom the home would have little meaning, uses a knife on the average of 32 times a day. It is not surprising that cutlery, which we take for granted almost without second thought, is indispensable! ?'UJ#Ie St~Nee ~leWe4 ta 7a&e eeet~ Some 175,000 years ago the un­ couth, hairy Dawn Man made his knives and axes of stone. For perhaps 15,000 years he developed and improved his crude stone im­ plements. Then he substituted flint for other coarser stone and employed great skill in chipping, grinding, and polishing this ma­ terial into knives, axes, spear Stone Flint points, and many other articles that STONE AGE KNIVES made living easier and better.
