The New Yorker, August 22 , 1925P. 1 There is a rumor to effect world will beat path to door of man who makes better mousetrap than neighbor, even tho he dwell in depths of wilderness.

Poland and Romania seem no more confident in their flag carriers, beating paths to Turkey, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates for financial backing and feed-in traffic.
Care homes, NHS hospitals, the construction industry, tourism are all beating paths to Whitehall's doors, relying as they do on low-paid continental and seasonal labour.
So, yes, dear departed Peter Sellers, it seems you were right – hordes of art lovers will be beating paths across the verdant grasslands of south west London to seek out the treasures of Balham in the coming years – indeed they will.
There have always been open houses, of course, but with low interest rates and hints of economic recovery, many more buyers and self-proclaimed real estate prognosticators are now beating paths to other people's doors.
They beat a path to the PATH in the morning, then head straight back home after work or a night out in New York.
