The 1910's was a decade of entertainment, science, technology and fads. Some popular interests in the second decade were going to the pictures, a dance craze called the Tango, and The Saturday Evening Post. People also enjoyed the abstract work of Picasso and Matisse. A different type of artist people enjoyed was Stravinsky. In the years before WWI, there was enormous confidence in science and technology. For as long as many people could remember, inventors had produced one wonder after another, and there seemed no reason why this should not go on forever. Then in 1912 came a disaster that shook this confidence, the sinking of the Titanic just three years before Edna was born.
