HUMAN FLY TELLS ABOUT' HIS
STUNTS
With, a. red cross stitched, 'to his
white flannel coat, Barry H. Gardiner
climbed -the highest building in Brodie
. ire a few days ago collecting money
for the great Red Cross drive.- He
climbed in . New York and in several
other cities in the course of the A-
merican campaign to raise $160,000,-
000 for war relief work, and collected
many thousands. of dollars from the
awe-stricken multitudes who watched
him perform his wonderful stunts.
Gardiner was in Toronto last Septem-
ber; and climbed the King Edward
Hotel. To him this was mere ‘}child's
play. He would have preferred to
climb the C. P. R. Building, and
sought permission to do so, but was
refused because' his climb ,would have-,
blocked all traffic while it was going
forward. Gardiner. of course, climbs
for money. He does not collect from
the spectators, except in the case ,of
)the climbs for the Red Cross. He`°is
)the
to carry the advertisement
of some firm. on his back as he mounts
.aloft, and ti
-attends his
as one migl
,culation
Gardiner, does every day 'what
ninety-nine, people out of one lean -
Ara would consider ' impossible.
`For instance, . who looking . at the
-Flatircin building in New York
would admit that it was possible for
.a man to start from the sidewalk and
go up the face of-the'buildiin.g to the
sof, .- !diner ' uses no a.a
Hees
whatever: '-lie' .does....his cli7nbingc
with his three fingers of each hand,
with his knees and his elbows, Iris
feet ao not figure in- the caste, ex -
:cent to balance him. He wears no-
-thing on his hands to give him ,a
grip. He wears rubber -soled shoes,
'and pauafiy'-_ a white .flannel .suit �He
is sailed the Human Fly, and'is
popularly considered . a daredevil.
This for n of flattery he repudiates.
He insists that . there is nothing 're-
markable about himself physically,
and also believes that he is in less
danger when waving like a rag on
the outside of a building 20 storeys
from the ground than on a busy
street crossing. Gardiner says that
he does not take chances. He took
just one chance, and properly as `he
considers, got a nasty fall, the .only
fail in his career. -
To a Bklyn Eagle repor lie
related the incident..It was u hen he
was climbing over the Capi l at
Charleston, S . C Which is downed
by a copper dome. It was e.among
when the time arrived for Gardiner
to go aver the top, and he knew
that this meant that the !copper
would be slippery. Nevertheless
ratehr than disappoint a croWd of
'60,000, he took the chance. He cal-
culated that if he did fall from .the
dome he would land on a slate roof
some 51 feet below. "I knew that in
falling 51 feet I wouldn't hit herd
enough' to be greatly hurt. That is
because when I climb I am never
afraid—I do not permit myself to
be — and my muscles, therefore',
never become rigid through fear.
So, when I took this chance and
missed because TO fingers landed in
a puddle of water, I just relaxed My
muscles after fixing myself in a
proper position to fall, I- only broke
three ribs and hurt my nose. . I
wouldn't have been hurt at all if it
hadn't Been that I happened to land
on a ridge of the slate.",
Gardiner was a student at Colum-
bia University, and was headed - for
4 a career as doctor, when the idea
came to him that- he wouldn't like
the profession. He thought he
would become an aeronaut, and
therefore he went to every balloon
•ascension he heard of, and one day
got a chance to go aloft when, the
regular performer became ill. He
took the parachute.drop, and on
the way down performed so many
original circus stunts that his suc-
cess in this calling was assured. He
borrowed money _ ` from friends to
buy a balloon and for some years'
travelled about the country making
ascensions. Fifteen years ago, as he
was passim the Flatiron 'Building,
the idea came to him that a ratan
might climb it and make a lot of
money. Before making the at-
tempt he practised on a number -of
small buildings, and then, whex he
felb thab he was ready for the great
attempt. he told nobody, but simply
swarmed up the skyscraper, and
eventually reached the roof. •
He has been climbing ever
since and has surmounted most of
the high buidlings in the , United
State, About the only thing he
baulks at is something like :the
Washington Monument. If there is
a pribjection upon which he can
stand,and another ledge above that
he can reach with his fingers. that is
all he needs. He- will raise himself
to the height- of:.rhis chin, and -then
will swing his body from one side
to the other until he gains sufficient
impetus • to' swing it to the ledge
above. He shins us a massive, cal-
unin by gripping it with his knees. ,
To say that he can climb where a ,
squirrel aan climb is an under-
satement. A. can's climbing abili-
ties are crud. compared with Gard-
iner's. His own explanation of his
wonderful achievements is that his
e publicity that invariabl
performances gives hiri
t say, a considerable cir-
s
!'will ', power is responsible. Most
'people, he' says, are quite unaware
of what they can do 'if their Will
power is developed. .Gardiner aim -
ply makes. -up his mind that he is
gong' to elin —up the face of the
,building studies . the. building . care-
fullj* from the ground, oily
then he
'limbs. In fact, - the only difference
between him and the average man
is that the latter makes up his
mind he is not going to climb up
a building and doesn't.
The increased cost of fine teas has
tempted some to, try cheap, inferior
teas to their sorrow. It is a real ec-
onomy to use Salada Tea, since its
yields a. far greater number of cups
to the pound, and, besides, has that
unique satisfying flavor. -
