The town fell on hard times when industrialism made home- based weaving obsolete, leaving workers such as Camegie's father, Will, hard pressed to support their families. Carnegie's family moved to Pennsylvania. His father worked in a cotton factory. In 1848, Caregie worked in the same place. He educated himself through books, theatres and music.
Thomas A. Scot, superintendent of the westem division of the Pennsylvania Railroad and Andrew Camegie's boss, initiated the future millionaire's first investment. At that time, Carmegie worked as a secretary to him. Carnegie began to invest in car company. By 1865, Camegie had amassed business interests in iron works.

Carmegie began to spend half of every year at an estate in Scotland, in charge of diffemnt projects. Frick stayed in Pittsburgh, running the day-to-day operations of the company,

Labor union was formed, and Carmegie believed the workers had the right to join the union. The union which represented workers at the Homestead Mill went on strike in 1892. Eventually, an armed militia had to take over the plant. Eight workers died finally.
Carnegie was informed by transallantic cable of the events in Homestead. But he made no statement and did not get involved. He was later criticized for his silence. As the 1890s continued, Carnegie faced competitin in business, and he found himself being squeezed by tactics similar to those he had employed years earlier.

Topic
Egypt’s Ancient Boat-builders
The scenes carved into a wall of the ancient Egyptian temple tell of a remarkable sea voyage. Some people have argued that Punt was inland and not on the sea, or a fititious place altogether.
Archaeologists from Italy, the United States, and Egypt excavating a dried-up lagoon known as Mersa Gawasis have unearthed traces of an ancient harbor. that once launched early voyages like Hatshepsut's onto the open ocean.
With the instability in Ethiopia, Fattovich and Bard were unsure if they would be able to resume digging there.
Over the past seven years, Fattovich and Bard have uncovered the hidden remnants of the ancient harborside community, which overlooked a lagoon more than a mile across.
The Egyptian ships were also unique in that they were held together with mortise- and-tenon joints, tab-and-slot fttings that needed no metal fasteners and could be taken apart and put back together again.
After about 400 years, Mersa Gawasis fell out of use. It was probably abandoned because there was no longer enough water in the lagoon to float ships, and perhaps overland links
improved or other harbors were used.
