MARX HELLINCER

I saw him the other night.
It was a fashionable late spot,
and celebrities dotted the ta-
bleS. He moved among them
slowly, taking orders on a lit
tie pad. He seemed different
now, as a waiter. He looked
old, and he had that tired air
that sometimes comes with
bitter wisdom.
Recalling his story, it seemed
to be the perfect ending that
he, of all people, should wind
up as a waiter. In my minds
eye, 1 could see the colorful
scenes of his life moving
swiftly past. And at the end
"a waiter.
Led a Grand Life
He had led a grand life,
though. A very grand life. If
my memory isn't cockeyed-
(Which it is, customarily)-
Henry Jensen was 20 when he
landed here from Germany.
He was a lively kid, and tall,
with a shock of curly yellow
hair like pine shavings.
But for all of his love of life
he was nobody's fool in the
business world. He had def
mite ideas, and his only handi-
cap was his inability to speak
English when he landed.
However, he soon found that
nine out Of ten New Yorkers
couldn't speak it either, so he
went right ahead with his
plans. The first thing he did
was to open a delicatessen.
He knew now to listen to
lady customers when they felt
in the mood for gossip. Half
the time he didn't understand
what they were saying, but
that made no difference. Half
the time they didn't either.
It's easy to understand why
the place prospered. Within
three years Henry Jensen had
an offer to sell. A juicy offer.
On the day that he turned
the delicatessen over to the
new owner a customer chided
him for selling.
you're a fool, Jensen. You
worked hard to build up a good
business. Now you sell out.
You'll be sorry"
His Philosophy
Henry Jensen shrugged, and
used the only American express
sion he knew.
That's life," he said. EASY
come, easy CO."
But Henry Jensen wasn't q
fool, and he was never sorry.
With the money he got for the
shop, he opened beer garden
in the heart of the Yorkville
section, which is predominantly
Teutonic.
Again, success. Again, the
young mans policy of serving
the best, and doing his best for
customers, won out. The place
was always crowded. The old
wooden till was weighted down
every night in the week with
coins and bills. Again, he sold
out.
He had had that place five
years, believe. And this time,
when he sold out, the price was
so high that he was moderately
wealthy.
He didn't go into business
after that. He went to Wall
Street. Not knowing anything
about the market, he took a
flier on the first stock that
took his eye. For a week it re-
mained fairly steady. Then,
overnight, it dropped IL points.
Henry Jensen lost a nice pile of
change that time.
The broker said he couldn't
understand it. He said he was
sorry that a new customer had
to lose so much-at the start.
Henry Jensen grinned and
waved the mans regrets aside.
That's life" he said. EASY
come, easy CO."
Funny, but that one lesson
didn't cure him. AS events
later turned out, it was good
that it hadn't. He hit a streak
of luck. BY the simple process
OF selecting a stock by the
sound of its name, he did a lot

HOLLYWOOD, Nov. 16.-Former

Funds for the work are being
raised from the showing of films

Details of the project were worked
out by Hersholt with Ambassador

ORDINARY FAMILIES" by E.
~ Arnot Robertson, is a novel
which undertakes to show that there
really are no ordinary families any
where.
Each group of human beings has
its own hidden tragedy, its own lit
tie stock of dreams and desires and
powers; get underneath the surface,
even in the most unlikely-looking
spot, and you run into more drama
than you know what to do with.
The author examines a little
group of English families to prove
her point.
There's the retired engineer who
makes a living as a yacht broker,
living quietly in seacoast town
with his wife and their four chill
dren; there's his next-door neigh
Dor, the rich industrialist, who high
hats everybody and confesses that
his son and daughter are really
pretty stupid; there's the family
across the bay, arty and self
consciously "emancipated"; there's
a troupe of lesser lights, villagers,
young people and so on, all tossed
into the pot and allowed to simmer
together.
These all are ordinary folk. Their
actions are never melodramatic; the
emotions that insure the actions are
extremely so.
And it all makes a strange sort of
book; very convincing, very skill
fully written-and somehow pretty
unpleasant.
This author writes with a concise
clarity, a keen intelligence and an
alert awareness of the poignancy of
the human struggles and defeats
that her ordinary families" dis
play; but while she is interested in
these people she doesn't seem to like
any of them very well.
She proves her point, she comes
up with a double handful of dra-
matte incidents, she writes an in
teresting book-but somehow it's a
relief to finish it.
s Ordinary Families" is offered by
Doubleday, Doran 81 Co. for $3.50.

In 1923 a few WallonS settled on

Then the SwedeS came and drove
the Dutch away, holding the land
