00:00:00
consider yourself loved well mr bomb
00:00:04
i take that as a promise see to it did
00:00:06
you live up to it
00:00:07
and it was evidently love at first sight
00:00:09
they're married within a year
00:00:10
i think that was really a turning point
00:00:12
in his life
00:00:14
because she allowed the childhood
00:00:17
imagination
00:00:18
to bloom didn't squelch it and i think
00:00:21
actually encouraged it there's an
00:00:24
interesting piece about him that he had
00:00:26
this very creative um sort of adventurous
00:00:30
spirit but also had a real deep sense of
00:00:32
responsibility and taking care of his
00:00:34
family
00:00:35
frank tried his best to settle down to
00:00:37
the responsibilities of a wife and
00:00:39
family
00:00:40
taking a job as a head salesman for one
00:00:42
of the family businesses
00:00:43
baum's castorine company for several
00:00:46
years everything ran smoothly
00:00:48
but once again fate intervened about
00:00:51
that time the family businesses
00:00:53
went into terrible reversals and so you
00:00:54
have somebody who grew up in
00:00:56
considerable comfort now struggling to
00:00:59
make a living
00:01:00
at which point baum decided to take his
00:01:02
wife
00:01:03
and move to aberdeen in dakota territory
00:01:05
where she had
00:01:06
some i think a brother and a sister it
00:01:08
was the new
00:01:10
hub the new jumping off place the
00:01:12
opening of the west
00:01:13
the place where it was all happening he
00:01:15
went there with these great ideas of
00:01:17
opening up this great bombs bazaar
00:01:20
bomb never thought second rate it always
00:01:24
had to be the best if he was going to open a store
00:01:28
in south dakota it would have to be a
00:01:30
luxury store
00:01:31
and it would have everything from bamboo
00:01:34
scratchers to a fancy marble soda fountain
00:01:38
but baum's timing was off just as he
00:01:41
arrived in south dakota the area fell
00:01:43
under a prolonged and devastating
00:01:45
drought that parched the land and withered the
00:01:47
hopes and dreams of its inhabitants
00:01:50
for a time frank struggled along bravely
00:01:52
even publishing a local newspaper
00:01:54
the aberdeen saturday pioneer but his
00:01:57
optimism was no match for the harsh
00:01:58
realities imposed by the unforgiving
00:02:00
environment
00:02:02
after the failure of all of his
00:02:04
enterprises in aberdeen south dakota he
00:02:06
realized
00:02:07
this was not the town to stay in nor
00:02:09
could he keep his
00:02:10
now four boys and mod there so he
00:02:14
looked around and he decided that
00:02:15
chicago was probably the best bet
00:02:18
frank set out for chicago full of
00:02:19
optimism for what opportunities lay
00:02:21
ahead in america's second largest
00:02:23
city but he soon found the going no
00:02:25
easier than it had been in south dakota
00:02:28
after some time he finally managed to
00:02:30
secure a job as a traveling salesman
00:02:32
for pitkin and brooks which sold fine
00:02:34
china and glassware throughout the
00:02:36
midwest travel in those days had to be very
00:02:39
tough
00:02:40
train buggy whatever it was
00:02:43
and of course you had to carry all of
00:02:44
your stuff with you but i think it also
00:02:46
gave him
00:02:47
time when he wasn't selling or sitting
00:02:50
in that hotel room
00:02:51
to think about his stories and to write
00:02:53
things down and
00:02:55
you know explore his own imagination
00:02:57
alfred baum
00:02:59
spent a lot of his time on the road when
00:03:01
his children were growing up and
00:03:02
whenever he came home
00:03:03
he would spend his evenings with them
00:03:06
and
00:03:07
he loved telling them stories the local
00:03:10
children
00:03:11
would find out and the next thing you
00:03:13
know he'd be on the steps on that nice
00:03:15
evening in chicago
00:03:16
a little breeze off the lake or
00:03:17
something telling all these wonderful
00:03:19
stories to the children making
00:03:21
and obviously watching their response
00:03:24
until the local constable would have to
00:03:26
come by and say
00:03:27
susie your parents are looking for you
00:03:30
because they always knew
00:03:31
where the local kids would be frank baum
00:03:34
was essentially an entertainer
00:03:36
and in those days that was a great great
00:03:38
gift it always is but in those days
00:03:40
there was no radio there were no
00:03:41
phonographs there were no movies
00:03:44
a lot of people couldn't afford stage
00:03:46
shows and people made their own
00:03:47
entertainment
00:03:48
at the time his children were learning
00:03:51
their mother goose rhymes
00:03:52
so he told some stories based upon
00:03:55
the rhymes he took the mother goose
00:03:58
tales and basically just told them as
00:04:00
you would
00:04:01
tell them the bedtime story or you would
00:04:04
talk to a child and tell them the story instead
00:04:07
of reading it to them
00:04:08
in either rhyme or imagery that they
00:04:11
were not used to
00:04:13
especially since most of them came from
00:04:14
europe they were not necessarily
00:04:16
recognizable or all of the places were
00:04:19
recognizable
00:04:20
to the children so he was trying to
00:04:22
explain them and basically kind of
00:04:24
americanize it
00:04:25
i don't think he fully understood how
00:04:27
powerful his ability to write for
00:04:29
children was
00:04:30
he always attributed his decision to try
00:04:33
that
00:04:34
in his 40s to his mother-in-law
00:04:38
matilda is the one who would come to
00:04:40
visit the bombs as the marriage
00:04:42
obviously succeeded and she would listen
00:04:44
to frank
00:04:46
tell the stories to the children and it
00:04:48
was she
00:04:49
although she died god bless her two
00:04:51
years before the wizard of oz was
00:04:52
published
00:04:53
it was she who again is part of family
00:04:54
legend is saying in so many words
00:04:56
frank baum you're a damn fool if you
00:04:58
don't write those stories down
