MOTOR BOAT KING WAS A
CATTLE HERDER
SOMETIMES I think we place tor
much emphasis on Uie stigma of
failure. A man may (ail at one
thing after another that he at-*
tempts, but ne is never a failure
himself until he quits. Many a for
tune has been built upon past mis
takes. Gar Wood's lather had a
viewpoint something like that, and
he instilled into his children the be
lief that even though they failed in
an endeavor, they had fun in try
ing it
Gar Wood was bom in Mapleton,
Iowa, in 1872, one of 13 children.
All of the children had to earn mon
ey early to help make expenses,
and Gar had little formal school
ing. When only a boy. Gar worked
at a cattle herder for one dollar a
day. - He loved boats and enjoyed
constructing mechanically run mod
els from clock parts. At the age
at thirteen, his unusual knowledge
of boats run by motors got him a
Job in Duluth on one of the first
gasoline craft to dock there. As
autory?6"iles became popular. Gar
Wood "Was hired to sell them. 0
He obtained one odd job after an
other. He was a teacher of elec
tricity and gasoline motor* in a
night class. He ran a garage for
awhile in St. Paul. One thing after
another he tried, and failed to ad
vance. A less philosophical man, a
less courageous man might have
become stagnant. But not Gar
Wood, e Hit mind was ercr alert to
new opportunities in mechanics.
Then he perfected a hydraulic hoist
for trucks, risked the family's sav
ings in constructing ? model, and
bacame wealthy almost overnight
* Suppose this man had been as
Utterly stricken with shame as
****** think we might be, when
to failed in bis first attempts to
make a successful living *He prob
ably never would have bad the cour
ftfa to risk all the money be bad
saved tar the modal of an inventiaa
Mian toM Man was impractical.

Mexico Joins S. F. World's Fair i
?Mexico will be a major participant in the 1939 Golden Gate In
ternational Exposition on Treasure Island in San Francisco Bay,
and here Senorita Hortense Melero, Mexican beauty, christens the
International Signpost on the island. Senorita Melero was sent by
the Mexican Consul General as a representative of Mexico on an
official visit to the site of next year's World's Fair of the West.
In colorful native costume, she typifies Mexico's "fair sex" at
its best.
