TWO Chicago’s Twisted “Bundle” Makes Fortune In Music and Art THINKS WOULD IS FINE PLAGE TO LIVE IN By ROY J. OIBBON6 CHlCAGO—Tomorrow again, from the same grecn-ahuttcred house they will carry out the "bundle" that amllea. Tomorrow again, aa on the mor rows that have come and gone for 16 years, on the battle line they will set the "bundle" down. There the "bundle” with hie paralytic limbs and twisted body fights cheerfully. Fights for food, for warmth and. a little happiness too, perhaps. The "bundle's” name Is Harry Hal Ehrlg. He la 31. * Once his body wrs whole and sound. Today he can move but one arm. All the rest of him Is dead. Kvery thlng save his brain and that smile that won't rub off. BLESSING IN DISGUISE He thinks the world a pretty fine place to live In. Yet he never sees much of it except when they prop him up beside a window or carry him beyond the little green shuttered house. Before he became a "hundle” he was Just one of the milling multi tude of a big city. Then a motor cycle accident put him "luckily,” be aays, to bed "to think.” He haa been an Invalid ever since. Vital nerves have been torn from his back. "But It was a blessing In dis guise,” he says. Think of that! What Ehrlg has done since fate overtook him could shame thou sands of able-bodied men. Through hit own efforts he earns a six-fig ured fortune yearly. MUBICIAN, PAINTER. WRITER , This he does through his orches tra— the Blue Demons —which he directs and personally nupcrvlses. Also he writes movie scenarios, composes successful song hits, and paints pictures that have attracted attention from celebrated artista. Before the accident Ehrlg was Jus onn of 1.000,000 people. No one, save his friends, ever had heard of him. Today he la a person of Import ance. Ho haa built up an In domitable courage. The smile that won't rub off stays with him. It even refused to go a month ago when misfortune added still further to his cup of sorrow—when his stepfsther shot and killed the "bundle's” mother snd then com mitted suicide. IT'S A FINE WORLD” "I do not wish to think of thet,” savs Ehrlg. ''Life* Is too short for sorrow. There is so much to be done. "Before my accident I Just drift ed along. I knew nothing about lAlntlnr. music or writing. They have come to ene since aa pleasures "And many peopig are They never find themselves until the crisis. ”1 am happy to he here. I am r.lad to see the sunihlne. This Is a good world. "Believe me when I say that. For 1 have lain here long enough to find out.” This from a man that Is a "dun- Ole.” This from a “bundle” thaa has made good. Think of him when you are sad. Tomorrow he will be going out of the green shuttered house again for tty battle line. TOO MUCH URIC ACID?
