In a local restaurant, there is an old advertisement poster for men's boxer shorts, and in quotes the word 'coolness.'  My oldest teenage daughter saw that and wondered about the 'modern' advertisement.  Fortunately, there was a copyright date on the poster.  The date?

1915.

What's old is new again.

It's quite possible that a little over twenty years after that ad was published the shorter 'cool' was still in use, around the time a 73 year-old would have been born.
