Did you know?
In 1916, in the year that Elvy Benning was born, visiting nurse Margaret Sanger opened the first birth control clinic in the U.S. at 46 Amboy St. in Brooklyn New York. Ten days after the clinic opened, Sanger was arrested for "violating laws against giving out birth control information" which was defined as obscenity. The clinic was not handing out birth control - just information about sex and birth control methods. (The Comstock law categorized information about abortion, family planning, and contraception as “obscene”.) The clinics and organizations that Sanger established later evolved into the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
Did you know?
In 1928, Elvy was just 12 years old when aviatrix Amelia Earhart, age 31, became the first woman to fly solo across North America and back in August. In June, she had been part of a 3 man crew that flew the Atlantic Ocean but since she had no instrument training, she couldn't fly the plane - she kept the flight log. The North American flight became one of her many "firsts" as a female pilot.

On Sunday, December 7th 1941, the Japanese nation launched a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, a U.S. naval base in Hawaii. On Monday December 8th, President Franklin Roosevelt addressed a joint session of Congress, calling the attack "a date which will live in infamy". An hour later Congress declared war on Japan - thus entering World War 2 and a war against all the Axis powers. These photos below are from the actual attack, and show the destruction, hurt, and sorrow on this day that has lived in infamy.
