31 ax Schling Sponsors Invention 
of Leonardo MPa Vinci 
3Ir. Sclilinff again paints 
In the 15th century, that stupendous figure of a man and artist, Leonardo Da Vinci, 
invented the wheel-barrow. Before that time, goodness knows how one carried a 
message to Garcia or a high “C.” It is said that the gay blades of the times 
occasionally trundled one another home in one of Leonardo’s uni-wheeled taxis, 
but this is quite likely a canard, and carrying canards in wheel-barrows is contrary 
to the provisions of 77B of the Motor Vehicle law. 
Getting down to chrome tacks, however, take a look at this modern, stream-lined, rubber tired wheel-barrow, $6.00 east of 
theMississippi.lt does the most amazing things! It carries deceased leaves. Imagine!—Fertilizers. Do tell!—Grass cuttings. 
Well, well!—Weeds. My gracious! It’s extremely light, and the removable basket is just the right size for many uses.
