WOULD YOU DO 1T?

Earl Willard, young shoe-factory worker at Brockton,
Mass, has one of the strangest jobs in the world, as a sideline.
in betting that dragged her into a piece of machinery. As
an act of mercy, to replace the womans lost scalp, Willard
gave "a square inches of his skin, for grating purposes.
1t dawned on him, that here was an opportunity to make
pocket-money ON the side.
Since then, Willard has sold 81 square inches of his skin
at 81 a square inch, and eight pints of his blood for trans
fusion at $25 a pint.
Primarily, his purpose is b humanitarian.
But it reveals that many opportunities, often OF a pecu-
liar nature, are lying around loose IN the world, waiting to
be discovered by sharp eyes that sense their possibilities.
If a meteor falls in your back yard one of these days, the
next train probably will bring a painting buyer from a big
concern in Rochester, N. Y.
The Rochester company specializes on the buying and
selling of meteors and regularly issues price lists on various
grades and qualities.
1t will interest you to know that enough meteors fall on
our earth each year to make their collection and sale profit
able.
Still more interesting is that some one had sufficient
vision to see the unexplored opportunity in the meteor bust
ness.
Lakes ships, causing no end of inconvenience, delay and &C.
cidents.
Frank Morrison, then a young man, saw in the situation
a great opportunity. He studied compasses, became an expert
with them.
Soon he had built up a big business in Cleveland as "the
only compass maker on the chain of lakes" with a steady
trade at repairing, inspecting and overhauling the needle de-
vices that point north to the magnetic pole.
Along our seacoasts, four or five other men have carved
their way to comfortable fortunes with the same implement.
Observe that Willard, Morrison and the meteor collectors
found their opportunities In queer pursuits. They did more
than find, they MADE their opportunities.
For the man or woman with Imagination and alert eyes,
the world is full of just such opportunities. Keep on looking.
never permit Encouragement, and eventually you will find
what you seek.
1t may help to notice that the Willard Morrison-meteor-
ologist trio discovered opportunity by looking about until they
found something that no one else was doing, despite a waiting
market.

WASHINGTON, May 15:-George
Washington and the 100000 meh
who represented America in the re-
cent war are to be honored together
in a great memorial auditorium IN
this city.
The project is called the George
Washington Memorial because II
was started twenty-four years ago
for the purpose of carrying out one
of the unfulflled provisions of
Washington's will. The war broke
into the slowly developing plans,
and afterward the idea OF the double
memorial took shape.
Now, plans are going rapidly for
ward. Congress has approved the
project and donated a site in a cen
trail location where some of the
temporary government Offices stood
during the war. The cornerstone
was laid by President Harding last
November. a few days after the
Unknown Soldier was honored in
the capital. Mrs. Harding has been
made honorary president of the
George Washington Memorial Asso-
citation, and the S7,O00,000 neces-
sary to erect the building is being
raised among states and organiza-
tions. Governors of all the states
have Endorsed the plan, and Tennes-
see has authorized a bond issue of
100000 as its share in the fund.
Construction work will begin next
year. it Is hoped.
Plans for the memorial have been
approved by the National Commits
sion on Fine Arts. A model stands
in the headquarters of the memo
rial association. 1t shows a four
story, square building, so broad as
to appear very low set. The ma
terial, like most public buildings in
Washington will be white stone, and
the usual Greek effect of a colon
made of pillars is used at the front
and back.
The central feature of the build
ing is the large auditorium seating
1000 with suitable accommodations
for national and international gath
erings.
The lofty dome Of this auditorium
is to be the specific memorial to the
soldiers and sailors and marines OF
the World War. Each man who fell
in the war is to be represented by a
gold star in the dome, and all
others by blue stars. These 4,S00,-
900 stars are to be personal memo
rails because the initials of the men
they represent are to be on them,
and It is planned that by use of a
diagram and a field glass visitors 70
the hall will be able to locate the
names of their own war heroes.
The dome Of stars is expected To
prove OF increasing interest with
the passing of time. In a speech al
the cornerstone ceremony Admiral
Coontz, chief OF naval operations,
referred to the dome of stars as the
part of the project thai appealed to
him most.

Valentino an italian
The antecedents of Valentino, are
stated by his friends here to be I'M
q~uestionably Italian despite a story
and his real name McGinnis. He was
born in Italy, they say, and there is no
record available here to show that he
even lost his Italian citizenship by
naturalization, although it was stated
at his studio that he was commonly
understood there to be an American
citizen by adoption.
Valentino was married here in Nov
ember. 1919, to Miss Jean Acker,
from whom he was given an interlo-
cutory decree of divorce January l,
1922.
His name was given in the marriage
application as "Rodolph Gugliem," and
his place of birth as Italy. He was
then "a years old.
here, it was said that the records
disclose that Valentino had been born
at Castelli, province of Anita. Italy,
and that he was educated at Perugia.
He came to America as a youth and
was employed in New York and else
where as a tango dancer. He entered
motion picture work about the time of
his marriage to Miss Acker in 1919.
Valentino has a fluent command of
Italian and his claim of Italian name
and descent always had been borne
out by the facts, according to the
Lasky studios, where he is employed.
