No tpine where the spine should be . . . Lionel Comport, whose
specialty is supplying swaybacked horses for “gag” purposes, meas
ures the spine dip of one of his equine freaks. From top to bottom,
it*s an 11 lA-inch drop. Nature, it seems, has provided this nag with
its own saddle, bringing Mr. Comport $15 a day for his rental.
Two more different ways of earning a livelihood a la Hollywood.
Mary Wiggins (left) examines the scrapbook filled with pictures of
some of the stunts in which she has taken part. She thinks nothing
of running a motorcycle through a fence, and her specialty is high
and fire diving. Right, Cliff Jones shows some of the grasshoppers
he rounded up for a “plague” scene. He gathered 35 barrels of the
bugs, each containing 200,000 grasshoppers!

A GOOD GUESS
'‘So you lost your brother?’*
"Yes poor fellow, I fear he’s in
the soup.”
Can’t Forget
The guide had taken him to the
top of the mountain, and he gazed
long at the scenery. Then he took
out a note book and commenced to
write.
"Pardon, m’sieu,” asked the
guide, "but what are ze notes you
make?”
"Oh,” said the tourist, "I’m just
lotting down the things that have
left an indelible impression on my
mind so I shan’t forget them.”

Hanging Shelves You
Can Make of Spools
By RUTH WYETH SPEARS
YYT’HEN a number of persons
have the same idea at the
same time there is a reason. Re
cently I helped a friend make
hanging book shelves of spools
she had been saving. Today there
comes a letter from a reader who
says, "I have found so many help
ful things in your Book 1—SEW
ING for the Home Decorator, I
wonder if you have any ideas on
fixing up spools? I have in mind

the spool book shelves and comer
shelves they used long ago.” It’s
probably the general revival of
Victorian ideas in decoration that
has started everyone thinking of
spool shelves.
We seemed to remember that
the shelves we had seen years ago
in old parlors were put together
with colored cords. We tried this
but the shelves were not rigid as
the cords stretched. So we used
wire and the result has been a
substantial set of shelves strong
enough to hold reasonably heavy
3irticl6s
A little less than 12% feet of
wire was used for the shelves
shown here. Two sizes of spools
were used. Shelves, spools, wires
and all were finally painted to
match the brightest tone in the
room color scheme—in our case
it was peacock blue. There are
picture directions like these on ev
ery page of Book No. 1—SEWING,
for the^Home Decorator. If your
house is your hobby, it will be
full of thrills for you. Don’t go
through the holidays with shabby
curtains or slipcovers. This book
illustrates every step in making
new ones. Book 2: Novelties and
Embroidery, shows how to make
dozens of Christmas gifts from
odds and ends of material. Books
are 25 cents each. If you order
both books an interesting quilt
leaflet included free. Address:
