Two Minutes of Optimism
By HERMAN J. STICK
Building
THH gicatest bridgcbuildcr of the age is (iustnv l.ludcnthal, who is now plan
ning to construct across the Hudson river the most stupendous bridge in the
orlil.
(iustav T.indenthal does not know how many bridges he has been loni-eined
with; he has been so busy building he has never had time to count them.
When ouo thing is done Lindenthal passes on to another; and in u life so
closely packed with accomplishment that his fourscore and ten beem fairly to
have flown, lie has built many things other than bridges the most important of
which 1s n great career.
Gustav Undenthal was born in Austria, wheie at twenty he had been giadu
iteil nt u first-class technical school and wus a fulllledged engineer. At twenty
four he had had an important part in constructing railroads and bridges In
Austria and Switzerland.
America was then going through her boom period of tremendous railroad
'levelopment, and Lindenthal decided to emigrate and really learn practical iail
Toinl construction and brldgebulldlng.
They hud just started work on the Centennial Exposition In Philadelphia
when Lindenthal, urmed with un imposing array of degrees, diplomas, distinc
tions and titles, Inquired whether they were in need of a chief draughtsman or
thief engineer. He thought such a position might be acceptable.
They looked over his titles, examined his degrees, fingered his medalh, put
him through a third degree, nnd then they told him they would let him know.
Lindenthal now wore out several pairs of perfectly good shoes in an unsuc
ressful qtie.it for homo plnce where he could be "dosh of the works,"
And then he did something which immediately stamped him ns n "comer"
he took nil his diplomas, degrees and other professional bric-a-brac, which, by
the way, hnd hecomo much frayed from the frequent unrolling, crammed them
Into the bottom of his trunk, nnd, remembering the trade he hnd learned in the
old nuntrj, lined up for a job ns mason on the foundations of Memorial Hall.
This irlp he landed. And when the opportunity offered he whispered into
the ears of the "boss" that ho knew n bit about draughting and engineering and
would be glad to help out in a pinch.
It so happened one day thut the chief engineer wns tnken sick, and that sev
ral of bib assistants were unexpectedly called to attend their grandmothers'
(uiieriils, and it being recalled that young Lindenthal had said t-omething about
his being fumillar with blueprints, the forcmnn "took a Urodie" mid put him
on some draughting work.
The "chief" continued sick, and Lindenthal having made good on the
draughting, he was permitted to go on with the work he hud begun, which it wns
expected would take him about three months to finish. At the end of three
eeks Lindenthal hud turned It out in shipsHape.
He wus given a permanent place on the staff, put to planning iron construc
tion, and in the course of time he designed the dome for Meinoilnl Hall, which
' still standing In Fnlrmount Park. Philadelphia. That N, he designed the
dome for the very structure on which he hnd started us it inusou, working oil
lie foundations.
Since then Lindenthal hits planned nnd designed the marvelous system of
Icnnsjlvaiila tunnels under the Hudson and East rivers. He hns surveyed mid
'aid thousands of miles of railway tracks. He hns built piers, foundations and
thing else a civil engineer can construct nnd these In nearly eveiy state of
"ur (ountry and in almost every country in the clvill.ed world.
Hut th thing that he took the grentcst pleasure In building, sajt. Linden
"al, wuh the dome of Memorial Hull; It was the longed-for fruition of the lesson
"e hud learned that when It comes to building, whether it is a house, a bridge or
a iaieer a man is planning to reur, the only way to build successfully, to build
to reach the top, Ik to start on the foundations. He must begin nt the bottom
" climb. And tho nan who tries to aviate Is simply up In the air till he
wes down to eirth. . ,

Black straws in lace effect are very becoming.
Then, small turbans that are so snug and smart with
massed flowers or fruit or both. Large, floppy hats

or the other or both on every third hat, for they
are very fashionable. New uses of both make the
selection of an Easter hat full of interest.
Perhaps some of the most becoming hats this
season are those in semi-tailored mode trimmed, with
glycerined ostrich.
