CHARLIE STARTED PARIS FLIGHT IN DENTIST’S OFFICE Tinkering With Tools Laid Achievement Foundation. By Morris Do Harm Tracy United Press Staff Correspondent (Copyright, 1927, by the United Press) CHAPTER IT Captain Charles A. Lindberg began his flight to Paris in a dentist’s; office in Detroit. He didn’t know it then, for he had only heard about men flying In those days, but nevertheless it was while playing with the motors and the tools of a dental shop and an experimenter's laboratory that he laid the foundation for his supremo accomplishment.

The dental office was that of Dr. C. H. Land, his maternal grandfather. Just as clearly as his heritage of courage can be trace back through his ancestry, his flair for mechanics, his urge to try anything new, and his great modesty can be traced to his mother. Youthful Help Dr. Land was quite fond of his grandson and extended to him the particular privilege of visiting his dental offices and permitting film to give that youthful “help" the value of which any mother of such a child can well appreciate, as he himself w r ent on with his researches. Dr. Land was born in Ontario, dependant of one of the founders of Hamilton, Ont., but he was reared in New York and Brooklyn, studying dentistry in Branford, Ont.. under Dr. .T. B. Meacham. He practiced for a time in Chicago and then came to Detroit. His wife, Evangeline Lodge, was the daughter of a Detroit physician. Just how w r ell deffhed is the ex‘perimentat turn which is part of Charles Lindberg’s inheritance can be seen from the fact that in his Detroit office Dr. Land perfected the process of using procelain for Ailing teeth, invented a gold inlay system and developed other revolutionary dental- methods, writing in 1875 and again in 1911 books on dentistry which are known throughout the profession. Other Patents But dentistry wasn’t the only thing to which Dr. Land turned his inventive genius. He perfected and patented such things as incandescent grates for furnaces, gas ar.d oil burners. “His gas jets have uevAr been betters,” bis daughter, the mother of Charlie Lindberg. still maintains. "Undoubtedly Charles first became , scinated with machinery in my father’s office,” Mrs. Lindberg said telling her son's boyhood. “My father had a suite full of curious appliances, wheels, pulleys, belts, levers and such things. “He used to take Charles with him to his office and Charles would spend hours , there, watching and tinkering with the, machines.” Trailer Inventor An uncle of Linderbg’s is the inventor of a truck trailer widely used and manufactured in Detroit. With such a heritage and foundation, it w-as but natural that Charlie Lindberg turned to motorcycles, then built a motor-driven ice boat, took up airplanes, and, when lie had exhausted everything else that was new in the flying profession, decided to fly to Paris. As to his modesty, the very quality makes it difficult to go into the details, for Mrs. Lindberg herself has the quality as strongly defined as does her son. “He takes some of the possibly more deep-seated instincts from his father,” Mrs. Lindberg commented when questioned about her son s heredity. "I have learned many lessons from my boy,” she said on another occasion. All His Own “His flying was all his own, I had nothing to do with it and never sought to interfere,” was another comment. If there is any one thing that the hero of the New York to Paris fight fears it is his curly hair. It worries him continuously. He has tried every means to make his hair straight, but it simply won’t behave. His friends agree that on rainy days Lindberg is most apt to be out of sorts and irritable, because damp weather make his hair curl. That seems to be about the only skeleton in the Lindberg closet.

There IS Relief! A harmless way to stop pain. That really STOPS it. How long they looked for something like No-Ake tablets! A form of help that cannot form a habit. No need, now, to bear a headache" until you can't stand it”! Neuralgia, neuritis; those pains no remedy seems to reach; they succumb quickly to the soothing influence of No-Ake! Try it when nervous, or nights you can’t sleep; it acts in fifteen minutes! When sick, see a doctor. But to end pain—slight or serious—there’s No-Ake. The druggist sells it readily, for he knows it’s perfectly harmless.
