Finding Your Career

A fondness for pie made Harry Houdin the handcuff
king You've seen him in vaudeville or the movies.
Hodlni was born and raised in Appleton, Wis, in the
heart of berry district His mother made wonderful pies
out OF berries She kept large supply hand-oeked in
the pantry.
The boy never lived of course who didn't pick lock TO
get at pie cake doughnuts or jam. Houdini-experi
menung with such crude tools as haipnsdseovered that
he had a natural talent for picking locks.
SO the berry pies started him on his stage career.
houdni has never been foed at freeing himself when
locked up His closest escape in Scotland where the
old turnkey of prison shut him in cell and chucked
he went away. Houdni tried all his tricks But he could
not get the door unlocked After several hours gave up
IN despair realizing that his reputation was due for
smash Exhausted he leaned against the doorand fell
cut into the corridor.
The canny cid turnkey hadn't locked the cell door at ALL
Many of time other in our careers have been

II is folly for father mother to try TO make lawyer
out of Willie when Wies natural bent exhibited by his
youthful craving to doctor cats and hang around hospitals
The child left to itself discovers what it wants TO
be in life This is true, from art to all forms of manual

Interesting to reflect back over your career-what
started you the road you following for livelihood
Ii you had it to do over again. would you take the

It's marvellous the way peoples ncnaons vary so that

 The warden had beeu arpriscd that natives along the Inlet have been indulging in wholesai. distri, irtion of dlcx gnd goose eggs. us i.s them for load purposes. Ina S..linaref 'coupt-v is so situate: :; that thousands of the birds frc Iieal nesting r' r"d, and rhe na- tives have been rifling the nests. It was estimated by the warden that annually approximately 50.00O game bird eggs have been destroy ed for food purposes by the natives.
 Upon arrival in the upper coun- try the warden called the chiefs in council and explained the situation to them, showed them what their destruction meant in lessening the bird supply.
 When asked if their food supply d pended upon duck and goose eggs they answered that other eggs were fit for food but slightly more diff cult to obtaine Finally they pro- missed to refrain from disturbing g ducks and geese and stated they would confine themselves to other than the prescribed diet. A spec ial deputy will be stationed in the country to see that they remember their promise. Violations will be severely dealt with, as the govern ment is determined to prevent ruth less destruction of it's game ami mals, fish and birds.
