From Harvard College, Class of 1910, Fourth Report:

"Parents Rev. David Clariborne Garrett, Lily Selmes Garrett.

School Stone School, Boston, Mass.

Years in College (1906-1910).
Degrees A.B., 1910 (Harvard).

Occupation Advertising.

Address (home) Park Avenue Hotel, New York, N.Y.

(business) 48 East 41st St., New York, N.Y.

After graduating in 1910, I spent the summer at Duxbury, Mass. In the fall of 1910 I went to St. Louis and lived there until 1913. I was with the U. S. Steel Corporation. In 1913 I went to Chicago. There I was on the Chicago Daily News for two years, and with John Glass publishers' representative, for a part of a year. Other business ventures in Chicago included the Atlas Portland Cement Co., and Newsabout Ford's Magazine. In 1916 I went to Texas with Battery D, First Illinois Field Artillery. In the fall of 1916 I went to Detroit. I was Ohio and Michigan representative for Fordowner Magazine. In 1917 I enlisted in Battery C, 332nd Field Ailillery. Date of enlistment December 15. I went to France as a casual in April, 1918. In the fall of 1918 I rejoined my original battery after being shipped around to all parts of France, as a casual, except to the front. I was a private until October, 1918, at which time I was made a corporal. My original battery did not get into action nor did I. I sailed for the States in February, 1919, and was mustered out the last day of that month. In March, 1919, I went to New York as eastern representative for Fordowner Magazine, the same paper for which I was Ohio and Michigan representative before the war. Since March, 1919, I have made New York my headquarters, and my present business connection is Fordowner Magazine, eastern representative, 48 East 41st Street, New York."
