If Walter L. Hodges had been content to remain an obscure farm
band on an Indiana ranch nineteen years ago he would not now be
the Hon. Walter L. Hodges, Los Angeles millionaire. In 1903, poverty
stricken, uneducated, sickly, he was earning fifty cents a day on a little
ranch he didn’t own.
His mother-in-law fell heir to a note for SB,OOO given by a teaming
company. She traded the note to Hodges. Making his way to lajs
Angeles he forced the company to give him sixteen mules and four
wagons. But what was he to do with sixteen hungry mules?
Riding one of them and leading thf other fifteen he found a gravel
bed on a Ix)s Angeles river, where he could get gravel free. On his
nerve alone he hired three negro drivers and with them began hauling
gravel into Los Angeles at $2.60 a load. At the end of two years ha
had not made a cent-
To make money he most find a shorter haul. He found a bed of
gravel four miles nearer Los Angeles. Demand for gravel at $2.60 a
load was great, bnt at the end of a year he was $13,000 tn debt
In a department store, where he had gone to buy overalls, he saw
an escalator. Hurrying to a junk dealer he obtained an assortment
of old machinery and rubber belting, and in a week had erected a
long, heavy movable belt running from his crushing platform down
into the ravine. One man could thus load more rock onto this belt
and have it dumped at the crusher than fourteen could handle before*
His business began to show a slight profit. At night he studied in the
Los Angeles Y. M. C. A., walking twelve miles each day to do so. But
seven months later, he found himself $35,000 in debt.
One Monday a note for SIO,OOO fell due. He went to the bank and
asked to see the president- “I’m through,” said Hodges. “How mneb
do you ueed 7*’ asked the banker. He loaned him $15,000 more.
Then the tide set his way. In 12 months he paid the hank. Then
fire wiped him out, causing a $70,000 loss. But from insurance money
he built a better plant. Six months later a flood swept down and
buried his new plant under sand. His loss was SBO,OOO. He built a
new plant and sold the sand.
In May, 1922. his profits were so great that he sold hia interest to
a Western corporation for $1,100,000 cash.

Etiquette
SS w wey n IB
Readers desiring personal replies on
points of Etiquette or heart affaire
may write Miss A. Leda, care of this
newspaper, enclosing a self addreseaS .
and stamped envelope.
Dear A. Lbda : ±
Will you kindly tell me the klad
of a note that should be written In j
case of a dinner and theatre party
having to be postponed? Is It bet
ter form to send a messenger with
the note or post It? d
A Reader. ”
' When conditions arise which pre
vent the giving of a dinner a not*
should Immediately be despatched
either by messenger or special de
livery, either canceling or postpon
ing the affair. The note may be,
written in the third person, some
thing to this effect: • i
Mr. and Mrs. Robert Williams re
gret exceedingly that due to fire In
their home they must postpone their,
dinner arranged for Wednesday, De-’
oember the tenth, to Monday, Decern-,
ber twenty-third, on which date they j
hope to have the pleasure of Mr.;
and Mrs. James Collier’s company; j
at half after seven o’clock.
Another reader asks the kind of
a note that should be sent In the
case of a stop-gap at a dinner party.
This means stopping a gap which
has been caused by a guest’s sud
den inability to keep a dinner en
gagement. •
It is quite permissible to call upon
a friend to fill a vacancy occurring
at a dinner party at the last mo
ment. However, in such a case the
situution should be frankly explained
and not a formal card sent out at
the last minute. For example:
Dear Mb. Brown :
Will you be most obliging and
help me out on Wednesday, January
the twelfth? The grippe has seized
one of my guests at the last minute
so that I am cast upon the good
nature of my friends. We will dine
at seven o’clock, and I shall look
forward to the pleasure of your
comimuy, and thank you many times
for the favor you confer by coming.
Most sincerely yours, *
Alice B. Dean.
