100 Years Ago This Month: Historical events from May 1926
The month of May has been home to many historical events over the years. Here’s a look at some that helped to shape the world in May 1926.
• The Ford Motor Company becomes the first major American company to introduce a 40-hour workweek and the two-day weekend on May 1. The reduction from 48 to 40 hours comes with no reduction in pay.
• A civil war breaks out in Nicaragua on May 2. The conflict begins when exiled members of the Partido Liberal political party land in the country with the intention of overthrowing the government.
• The Norge airship departs Gatchina near Leningrad on May 5. The Norge is bound for Vadsø, where it will be prepared to cross the North Pole.
• The first night landing of an airplane on the deck of a ship is accomplished in Britain on May 6. Royal Air Force pilot G.H. Boyce lands a Blackburn Dart on the deck of the HMS Furious.
• Russian inventor Leon Theremin demonstrates his experimental television system in the Soviet Union on May 7.
• English documentary producer and naturalist Sir David Attenborough is born in London on May 8.
• Explorers Richard E. Byrd and Floyd Bennett take off from Spitsbergen, Norway, in a monoplane on May 9. The men return nearly 16 hours later, claiming to have successfully completed a flight over the North Pole. However, a diary entry of Byrd’s discovered in 1996 suggests the plane turned back 150 miles short of the North Pole due to an oil leak.
• On May 10, France becomes the first nation to ratify the 1925 Geneva Protocol. The protocol bans the use of poison gases and biological weapons in war.
• Hans Luther resigns as Chancellor of Germany after losing a vote of no con-
fidence in the Reichstag on May 12.
• The New York Rangers, the Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Cougars are admitted to the National Hockey League on May 15.
• The Irish political party Fianna Fáil is founded on May 16. Eamon de Valera is the party’s first president.
• Italian-born anarchist Severino Di Giovanni leads a group that bombs the United States Embassy in Argentina on May 16. The bombing is in response to the convictions of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, who were found guilty of murdering a guard and paymaster during an armed robbery of
the Morill Shoe Company in Massachusetts in 1920.
• Christian evangelist and national celebrity Aimee Semple McPherson disappears on May 18.
McPherson had last been seen swimming at Venice Beach, California, and initial speculation was that she had drowned. However, McPherson reappears in Mexico five weeks later.
• United States President Calvin Coolidge signs an act authorizing the creation of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park on May 22.
• One hundred and forty people are killed when the Mount Tokachi volcano in Japan erupts on May 24.
• Ukrainian nationalist leader and former president of Ukraine Symon Petliura is
assassinated on a Paris street on May 25. The assassin, Jewish anarchist poet Sholom Schwartzbard, who had lost his family in pogroms of Jews that occurred in the Ukrainian National Republic in 1919, held Petliura responsible for the anti-Semitic violence in Ukraine.
• Miles Dewey Davis III is born in Alton, Illinois, on May 26. Davis would become one of the most influential and acclaimed musicians of the twentieth century.
• The opening ceremonies of the Sesquicentennial Exposition are held in Philadelphia on May 31. The exposition is a celebration of the 150th anniversary of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence.

Filtration for Your Home’s Water
Standard filtration often leaves behind contaminants in your water that if you knew were there, you wouldn’t want in your home. Depending on what’s in your water, you may need additional filtration or even a combination of water treatments to make sure it’s as clean as can be. There are two main ways to connect a filter to your home’s water—whole home systems and point of use systems.
Water Softeners are available for sale or rent.

Did you know?
Increasing time spent outdoors enjoying nature can positively affect mood and mental health. Generally speaking, outdoor enthusiasts tend to be happier overall. The American Psy-
chological Association says spending time in nature is linked to both cognitive benefits and improvements in mood, mental health and emotional well-being. Both green spaces and blue (aquatic) spaces benefit overall well-being. Several years ago, the University of Derby in the United Kingdom conducted a study titled, “The 30 Days Wild.” The study encouraged people to do something wild once a day for 30 days. Participants shared that their connection to nature and doing things in nature created a significant increase in happiness and health. People who spend more time outside can experience greater self-esteem, less stress, increased memory retention, and more positive body image. Natural environments also lower activity in the rumination area of the brain, decreasing negative, repetitive thoughts. Also, those who are outside more tend to be engaging in physical activities, and exercise directly correlates to better mental health.

A hot breakfast can be just what the doctor ordered on weekends. Weekday mornings might be too hectic to whip up a hot breakfast, but that’s often not the case come Saturday and Sunday. For those with time to cook breakfast over the weekend, this recipe for a “Peasant Omelet” from Lines+Angles is delicious and simple to prepare.

1 small potato, peeled and chopped into small pieces
1 clove minced garlic, peeled and minced
2 slices cooked ham, cut into bitesize pieces
2 teaspoons fresh parsley, finely chopped, plus extra for garnish

1 pickle, sliced lengthwise (optional)
1. Heat the oil in a skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chopped potatoes and saute until almost fork tender. Add the garlic and continue cooking until the potatoes are tender. Add ham and fresh parsley, stirring until heated through. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
2. Melt butter in an omelet pan or saute pan. Beat milk and eggs together. Pour egg mixture into the omelet pan. Cook over medium heat, gently move the eggs by sliding a spatula under the eggs, to promote even cooking. Cook until eggs are set.
3. Slide cooked omelet onto plate. Season with freshly ground black pepper and top with potato and ham mixture. Garnish with fresh parsley and sliced pickle. Serve immediately.
