Injury That Laid Him UP Is Rather a

Hal Ehrig, 646 West 61st street, sur.

dents, one In 1911 In an endurance
race to Michigan City and another In
1912 in the bowl at Rlverview park.
Each time his left hip was badly in

But with Hal, the third time was the

paved artistry. And he's sold lot
more, two Of them for $3.50 each. Some
Of his canvases are six feet long. Hal
has them suspended from the bar run

as If painting on the ceiling.
How He Took Up Music.
Now for the music.
II took up song writing about
three years ago." Hal went on. "Some
fellows were over seeing who could
write the best poetry. They liked mine,
and we sent 1t to a music house to
have 1t put to music. 1t was war song
called "when We whirl Into Berlin"

riot. The boys wanted to dash right

more.
