forming. One OF those whom "booze"
makes brave created quite show for the
boys on the street the other evening. He
tackled local athlete for a friendly all
round bout, and got it. After half an
hours tumbling his linen duster looked

it on him the rim Of the "hard-boiled"

general appearance suggested that he had
been dragged through hsdes and beaten
with a bag of SCOT. Next morning he
explained his condition by remarking |
that the fip-fop had few off the whang.
