HARD KNOCKS TO HIGH NOTES!

   You've got to admire people who constantly

get clobbered buy never say die! Adolphe was

such a person. He liked music and inventing

but he was lucky he lived long enough to

enjoy the music and get his invention

patented! Before he was two years old he

fell three stories and hit his head on the

solid pavement. They thought he was dead.

He swallowed a pin and, when only two, 

drank a bowl of acidic water he thought was

milk! For some time he slept in a room where

laminated furniture was being dried, The fumes

could have killed him! Then, later in life, he

was struck on the head with a cobblestone and

fell into the river! Still he survived. Much to

the joy of music, and especially jazz lovers.

You see on this very date in 1846 Adolphe

got a patent for his invention which, by the

way, bears his name. You see Adolphe Sax,

invented the Saxophone! Just though you'd

want to know! Hope you're enjoying your

jazz and that all your NEWS is good.
