Walt Disney didn't start school in Marline until he was almost seven years old. His dad wanted him to wait until his sister could attend school at the same time as him. He went to the Park School, about a mile away from his house, but only spent tow years there. He had to leave because his brothers, Hebert and Raymond, saved up enough money and ran away so he had to help on the farm. Roy Disney was eight years older than Walt and he didn't like working the farm; only him and Ruth Disney did. His father got typhoid fever from their water well, he was in poor health for years. Roy Disney couldn't run the farm himself and it was too small to support a family.
In the summer of 1910 the Disney's sold there farm and moved to Kansas City. Walt Disney had only spent five years in Marline but he would never forget it, the animals, or the people he knew. In Kansas City his dad supported his family with a newspaper delivery service. Since he had such poor health, he couldn't deliver the papers himself. That job was up to Walt and Roy Disney to handle. Every morning, they were up by 3:30 AM to start there routes. They weren't allowed to throw the papers, in the warm weather, they had to take each one up to the door and place it there, unfolded with a stone on top to weigh it down. In cold weather, they had to open the storm door and put the paper inside. As soon as they were done delivering the papers they would rush home, have breakfast and go to school. After school they delivered the evening papers. Sometimes he was so tired he would take a nap in the corridor of one of the apartment houses where he delivered. All the money they made went directly to their father. One day Roy Disney ran out on his family. Walt Disney would make money on his own by delivering more papers and sweeping out a candy store across the street from his school and also by delivering prescriptions for a drugstore.
