When in America the children easily picked up English, but Harry's father and mother had difficulty. At home the family spoke German and in school, they spoke English. The family continued to be poor, there were nine children. All of the older children including Harry at age 8 worked after school to help support the family, selling newspapers or shining shoes.
Harry began working as a delivery boy for a department store. The delivery boys made their money from the tips they received, Harry usually made about 3.00 a week. The family continued to be very poor. As you can see, Harry had some auto-teaching to himself.
