When Henry was about 5 years old, he quit smoking cigars. His oldest brother Sievert, bribed him with a team of horses. They were hand made of wood by Sievert. After that he only chewed tobacco.

He moved to Cook with his parents and older brother Ed in 1903 when he was almost 6 years old.

Some of the jobs that Henry had were for Chase Lumber, making 30-35 cents an hour at the sawmill south of Cook. He would roll the logs in the pond to clean them off, then run them into the chute to go into the sawmill. He also made 25 cents an hour to dig the water lines in the Village of Cook.
