Argentina may be his goal, | | but he declines to say where he will go, | Fach morning for 30 days he merged himself in the overalled army -that marches in the e light to this city’s industrial plants—and without detection. His working or time card was made out in his own name, and though many of his co-workers specu- ated his possible connection with the family of Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, Governor General of the Philippines, he never was asked until discovered by a reporter. Whether he Is broke, young Wood will not say, but he is reported to have purchased $5,000 worth of stock in the company, for while he is work- ing. His v is $125 a month.

Wood has been living at a boarding house not far from the manufactur- ing district, and, according to his land- lady, Mrs. Leon Davis, “he certainly is a home boy. He seldom goes out at night, and when he does it is not for long.” When told that her boarder was the former stock player and son of the famous general, Mrs. Davis de- clared, “Can it really be true? But I | might have known he was somebody like that, for he Tertainly is clever.” Young Wood believes, and he said it | himsel that an honest day’s manual who object to overalls and blue shirts. | “When I came here five weeks ago to work I intended to stay incognito, had hoped to keep my identity a secret,” Wood declared. “I am sorry the reporter found it out and can’t imagine how he did it.

Playing without working gets s¢ monotonous it bores one to death. ‘Do your soclally prominent friends | know you are here, and how do you supposy they take this determination of youfs to go to work?’ Wood was asked.
