From the beginning it was
necessary that I help in my
small way toward our support.
We finally settled in Boston,
where I sold newspapers the
following eight years. During
my spare time I took violin
lessons, but during my working
hours l was won over to the
harmonica as a result of my
newsboy contacts. In few
years I'd entirely forgotten the
violin and was an ardent devo-
tee of the mouth organ.
At the mature age of IA I
set out for New York, where
l organized a boys orchestra
which met with little success.
So 1 turned practical and sold
shoes. But my first love re-
claimed me and I turned to
the stage once again. On my
first vaudeville tour on the In
terstate time Mae West aston
ished me by being the only
woman who could play Blues"
on the harmonica.
MY plans for the stage had to
be kept secret because of family
objection, but L attended Clare
Tree MaiOr'S School of Dra-
matics for more than six
Notwithstanding to be a le-
gitimate actor. James Cagney
was a classmate Of mine in
C. C. N. (which I attended
to study chemistry, as I had an
infantiIe liking for chemical
reactions. My brother was the
inventor of American dye dur
ing the World War.
After flunking a course in
English was required to write
a thesis on subject never
written about before, so I picked
as my subject the harmonica, so
little known at that time. I
then began to take up the in
strument seriously an d show
the remarkable qualities it had
for the development of music
for the youth. This harmonica
thesis, which was written merely
to gain credit for an English
course, netted me over $4,000
in royalties, being the biggest
selling instruction book since
the ukulele craze. Sears Roe
buck and Montgomery & Ward
and various other mail-order
houses ordered as many as 100,-
900 copies at d time. And. I am
proud to say, it is the only piece
of literature written about the
harmonica which is recorded in
the public library.

ing for and teaching the stu
dents, and when 1 sailed for
Europe was amazed to find
(aIthOugh the boat left at mid
night more than 100 kids as
sembled on the dock to serenade
me on the harmOnica. They
kept on playing as long as 1
could hear them the one tune /
taught to them-''Nearer, My
God, to Thee" This serenade
first gave me the idea of organ

the stage.
