HIT OF HISTORY:

Stickers nowadays are an affordable, readily available source, they have sure come a long way from early stickers.Early stickers were made of paper stuck with gum glue, used to make objects, such as crates, more attractive in the late 1800s. We also have R Stanton Avery from Oklahoma, the United States of America, to thank for inventing the first modern stickers. They were originally known as “self-adhesive labels” and in 1935 he enabled stickers to come with a peel-off backing.

Heartwarming Thanksgiving Surprise Good News Story For Town Of Two

A town of two gets an extra special Thanksgiving in this heartwarming Thanksgiving surprise story from the folks at Ancestry.

When someone says the words “small town” images of an old-fashioned sleepy town with a few necessary stores a couple of hundred kind folk come to mind. Well, today, the town of Gross, Nebraska has a population is 2.

A smiling women and man taking a selfie next to a town road sign that says Gross, population 2.

In fact, ALL of the residents of the town moved except Mary and Mike Finnegan.

And so, for the last 33 years, the Finnegans have been the town’s sole residents,
keeping Gross on the map.

They operate a small restaurant, the Nebraska Inn, where they welcome travelers of all kinds—providing comfort, hospitality, and the best burger around.

Through their warmth and steadfast traditions, Mary and Mike have ensured that the spirit of Gross lives on.
Coffee still costs a nickel, and anyone who dares to curse has to glue a dollar to the wall.

A older couple smiling in front of a building.

Word of this tiny town got back to Ancestry, a DNA test company that traces family trees.
They were inspired not only to reunite them with some relatives, but they also with ancestors of the town’s founders.
Making it a truly memorable,Thanksgiving where the past and present came together!

Ancestry searched its extensive historical records to create family trees. and contacted people with a connection to Gross. 
They set about to bringing them “home” too rediscover a piece of their family history.
For some, this would be the very first time to the town of Gross.

Many happy children and adults gathered round a bonfire outside.

Fifty people came home to Gross, Nebraska, for a pre-Thanksgiving celebration this year at Mike and Mary Finnegan’s restaurant, the Nebraska Inn.

The huge feast ended with Mary and Mike’s family and their new friends roasting marshmallows over a campfire and lighting sparklers.

The Finnegans’ three children and eight grandchildren were there, discovering they’re related to people they’ve known their entire lives.

“The couple was ecstatic and heart warmed that the event came to life, Mary said “Oh my goodness gracious, it’s just amazing,” she said in a phone interview. “I can’t give you any words to describe how grateful I am for that. It was just an absolutely perfect day. It expresses the importance of family, getting together, and having a place for everybody to call home and come to for holidays. I hope everyone who was there learned that important bit of information.” Ancestry

When Pez introduced the Pez Dispenser they became one of the first interactive mint/candy experiences in the world.

However, Pez was unable to gain market share over the American tobacco companies. Pez then turned their attention to marketing to children and creating sweet candy flavors that would appeal to a younger audience.
