He was mighty pleasant, but he e wouldent tell ns exactly what asked him. He was smart though, he had been down to Pasadena, and studying with Prof Milllken and all those fellows that Einstein was with. You know, funny thing. It was Just a Japanese gnrdner that had a Truck patch away out In the Desert toward Arlxona that had a sort of an Amateur globe of some kind end he found a Star, a new one that none of the Scientists had ever found. There was a big fuss made over It. I remember at the time, and they give him a new set of tools, or Spy Glasses or whatever It Is you find odd things with, Just for bis contribution to Science, so he went right on picking Radishes, and I bet In about another year he will bob up with another Star, or Ilanet. Hope he finds one that hasent been hit by depression. By the way I wonder If they are hit like a'l the rest of the World anyway. If they are It Just shows you how far Hoovers Influence reaches. Then of course we had Floyd Gibbons on there, and ho knows about everything, and has been everywhere, and read everything. A Scotch Golf Player from Canada that was as liberal as any one you ever saw, I Uont know e where they get that Scotch stuff. Then a Standard Oil man from the Jersey Company. Mr. Walton. He was headed for Batavia, where they have big Holdings. But the fellow that I want to tell you about was the Bee Man. His name was Riddell. He had lately come from up In Alberta, Canada, and he was just about as odd and human a Fish as you will find In a years trooping. He had on board 500 hives of Bees, taking them out to China. Well up to the time I met him I dident know any more about a Bee than I do about Shakespeare. But the Bee man told me a lot. He had em all stored on deck, right out in the cold. He first had em down below, but he was afraid of the heat, so they brought em up. and they was roped down, for believe me you Brother those Bees did some rocking If they was with that Boat. I am going to get that Book of Materlinks on Bees and read it. He says thats what drove him in the Bee business. I remember Materlink when he was brought out years ago In Hollywood with the Sam Goldwyn Company that I was with at the time. I dident know ha knew anything about Bees then or I would have asked him. Old Bees was pretty tough to down in an argument, and you would about have to buy him a to Heat drink him. Ho was a young too, alojt fellow forty-tw- but he was old high on whatThorou or ever his name was, he lived np around Boston, Harvard man I guess. I never could fled out from Bees Just what type of stuff he turned out. Maby was a He had also read a Collumnist. lot of Chinese stuff. He and the Japanese would argue over that, I tell you this old Eee man was a freak. He knew an awful lot about Ants too. Thats something he got me interested In, and soon as I can get my mind off Movies I am going into tlie Ants. This old Boy just put more ambition into me. He has just got me all excited to learn, so no more Hoover and the Senate and Boarah and all that, I am going to devote my time from now on to Ants. They do something. 1932 McSaagkl Syvduatt, lee. |
