Monday, January 30, 1922

Fair, bright, clear, chilly day. Arose 7:45 A.M. Breakfast. Father & I out on business. Dinner. Candled eggs. Down town. Bowled etc. Supper. To High School to evening class in typewriting 7-9 P.M. Took walk. Home. To bed 10 P.M.

**********
A routine day, it seems.

Stanford never describes the process of egg candling, so we don't know if he used a special device for it. But apparently there were some inventors who were trying to improve on the device for candling eggs.

Below are two drawings of egg candlers from the U.S. Patent Office. One was patented in 1920, the other in late 1922. The latter seems to be capable of candling multiple eggs simultaneously, making the process faster and more efficient, I would think.
