We DO not consider serious enough
here In the United States the comfor.
and dignity and happiness OF old peo-
pie. The widowed mother OF n pros
porous man is often seen haunting the
house OF a son or daughter like n ghost.
She has no place there. no work. no
interests. no old friends, and the nged
lind Il, hard TO make new friends. Il
Is selfish and inconsiderate for n son
to thus treat his mother. She IL uI-

In those about her. Where means do
not permit the settling of old people
In homes of their own 1t Is still pos.
sible to make them comparatively In

The Gardner tribe is increasing in the

well-known boxers by the name of Gard

common name. The list is as follows:
George Gardner, middleweight; Billy
Gardner, lightweight; Jimmy Gardner,
featherweight; Oscar Gardner, feather
weight; Eddie Gardner, feathcrweight;
Gus Gardner, lightweight. The Sullivans
are Spike Sullivan, Dave Sullivan, Tommy
Sullivan and Twin Sullivan. The list of
Ryans includes Tommy Ryan of Kansas
City, Tommy Ryan of Philadelphia, Billy
Ryan of Syracuse Australian Jimmy
Ryan and Buddy Ryan of Chicago.
Strangely enough the fighting Smiths are
very few. Mysterious Billy Smith is the
only one of any consequence at the pres
