Trick
“Com-pa-nee, atten-shun!” bawled
the drill sergeant to the awkward
squad. "Com-pa-nee, lift up your
left leg and hold it straight in front
of you!”
By mistake, one rookie held up
his right leg, which brought it out
sids by side with his neighbor’s left
leg.
“Aw‘right, aw right; who’s the
wise guy over there holding up both
legs?” shouted the hard-boiled ser
geant—The Watchward.

"In some cases,” replied Miss

'WayBackWhen
By JCANNK
GARBO LATHERED FACES IN A
BARBER SHOP
IF YOU had walked into a certain
Stockholm barber shop 'way back
in 1920, you would have seen wistful
little Greta Garbo working up a
lather and preparing hot towels for
stubbly faces as she assisted the
local barber. Later, in Bergstrom’s
department store, you might have
taken a second look at the pretty
little clerk who sold you a hat But
if someone had told you she would
one day be world famous in pictures
for her portrayals of romance, pas
sion and ecstasy, it would have
seemed too fantastic to believe.
Greta Garbo was born in 1905 in
the mill district of Stockholm. Her
father was a poor machinist and
her mother an uneducated farm
woman. The mysterious airs and
aloofness of the great Garbo of to
day are natural, for they were traits
of the sensitive little daughter of
this poor family. Her father died
when she was fourteen and she went
to work In the department store to
help support her penniless mother,
her small brother and sister. The
manager of the millinery depart
ment chose her to model hats and,
through publication of photographs
made then, she was given a chance
in motion pictures. Her rise to fame
was rapid, and the little lather girl
of Stockholm became the greatest
example of movie publicity.
One of her very first pictures was
awarded the Nobel prize, and she
received the medal of the New York
Film Critics for her performance
in “Anna Karenina.” Men fought
duels over her, and famous direc
tors, writers and actors have sought
her favor. So, think twice before
you laugh at that neighbor’s child
with the theatrical ambitions. The
great Garbo was once a lather girl!

MOTOR BOAT KING WAS A
CATTLE HERDER
Sometimes i think we place too
much emphasis on the stigma of
failure. A man may fail at one
thing after another that he at
tempts, but he is never a failure
himself until he quits. Many a for
tune has been built upon past mis
takes. Gar Wood’s father 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 barn 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
as a cattle herder for one dollar a
day. He loved boats and enjoyed
constructing mechanically run mod
els from clock parts. At the age
of 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
automobiles became popular. Gar
Wood was hired to sell them.
He obtained one odd Job after an
other. He was a teacher of elec
tricity and gasoline motors 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. His mind was ever alert to
new opportunities in mechanics.
Then he perfected a hydraulic hoist
for trucks, risked the family’s sav
ings in constructing a model, and
became wealthy almost overnight
Suppose this man had been as
utterly stricken with shame as
some of us think we might be, when
he failed in his first attempts to
make a successful living. He prob
ably never would have had the cour
age to risk all the money he had
saved for the model of an invention
others told him was impractical.
