fISTIC FACTS

Something in the nature of a
lgrudge will be disposed of when
champion Ad Wolgast and Freddy
Welsh, the British lightweight,
meet at los Angeles, Thanksgiv-
Ing day. The grudge originated
In Milwaukee three years ago.
Both were training at Larkins'
and frequently boxed together.
One day they were mixing pretty
Istrong and AID slipped over a jolt
to Freddy's jaw that made him
realize he was not up against a
plaything.
Welsh came back and for a time
there was a regular three-round
scrap, with no frills. Welsh let
out enough to put the "Kid"
down once and matters ended.
Later l met Welsh and he said:
Had a narrow escape today. That
Kid Wolgast tried to cross me at
the gym and came near turning
the trick. Someone wanted to spoil
my fight with Mcfarland by hav-
ing him turn the trick. He won't
want any more of my game. I
handed him some jolts. 1t was
small business.
After Wolgast defeated Nelson

incident. That Kid thinks he
can whip me. and I'm going after
him. l could have beaten Nelson
sooner than he did. I'll get VOL
CAST yet for that double cross.

Preachers are after the boxing
game, but forget to keep tab on
the football deaths. Five have re-
suited from the game this fall.
Many more have been crippled,
but not a word is heard. Last
week two men were killed and on

clean sport, boxing has football,

CALVES AND BOYTOWN.

In addition to other things that
claim our attention we notice that
they now have ten cows at Boytown
and that one of them had a calf the
other day.
Where and what is Boytown? Why.
it is the parental school farm of the
Gary board of education and is down
somewhere near Dune Park and
Meadow Brook. We know that $12,-
900 was paid for the farm. but this is
the first time that we ever heard of
its having ten cows.
Taxpayers might be interested to
learn what is being done with the milk,
who is buying it and how much they
are paying for it. Certainly the boys
at Boytown don't drink all of the milk
Is the milk being sold in Gary? Or
is it being made into matted chocolate.
cheese or schmierkase? Then, again,
are the cows plain Jerseys or are they
Holstein aristocracy? And what is
the connection between cows and re-
form education?
We also observe that the boys of
Boytown are building a library and
that they are getting paid for it. Nice
thing for the boys AS matter of
| fact most of the Youngsters having a
good time in school have not been
sent there because they need reforma
ton, health restored or anything like
that
Another nice thing is that Judge
Willis S. Brown, assistant superin
tendent of the Gary public schools
whose sense of patriotism prompts
him to serve the city without any
salary, spends a good deal of time
when he is not junketing around the
ment, supervising Gary's rural sum
mer and winter resort for boys.
Some time ago Gary taxpayers pro
tested without avail against the estab
llishment of and the spending of thous
ands of dollars for the parental schoo
farm in Porter county. Now that SOM

TUCKER AFTER FREE LUNCH.

Pure Food Inspector Frank Tucker
has been fighting our battles against
disease germs until we had begun to
think that the safeguards that have
been thrown about the things we eat
would give UP ample protection.
Now we find that Tucker quite over
looked the free lunch. Or he may just
be getting around to consideration
of the problem. At the present time
the dried herring lay exposed to the
air and dust all day long.
The sauerkraut fork is showed into
a score of different maws. The meat
fork is universally used. The dishes
containing the food are usually un-
clean.
And now that Tucker has got busy
a great change may be expected
Hereafter the sandwiches will come
wrapped in tissue paper, individual
forks will be provided and after ones
scuttle of suds has been consumed
he may approach his free lunch in the
knowledge that it has been sterilized
The march of progress is recorded
even at the free lunch counter.

LEAN HARD, GENTSl

IL is said that some of the Gary
aldermen are relying on Mayor Knots
TO stand by them in their present
trouble. The thought suggests that
famous epitaph in a New England
churchyard:
Here lies the body of Mary Ann;
She rests on the bosom of
Abraham.
That's very nice for Mary Ann,
But rather rough on Abraham"
What do you think about it, gentle
reader? If the Gary aldermen expect
Mary Ann TO do anything for them,
hasn't she her work cut out for her?

socIALIsM's RESPONSIBILITY

Among the most vital political topics

amount of damage done to the doctrine

events in the Mcnamara cases. The
New York World in its analysis says:

HEROISM AND CRIME.

The Calumet regions history in the
week just closing, has to a large ex-
tent been written in blood, spilled in
crime and accident. Horror and SYM
pathy have played alternately on the
heart strings and have crowded back
the yuletide spirit at the door.
But commingled with the reeking of
violences, hanging like pail, went up
an incense also from the blood of a
victim, seemingly to make atonement.
and to rouse humanity 10 nobler
thougbts-thoughts to warrant the ap-
preaching anniversary of the birth of
the Christian spirit Providence saw
fit to sacrifice a human life to create
this thought, and on Thursday Nicholas
Foster, the hero of railroad grade
crossing, nobly and unhesitatingly
gave his life to save the lives of three
school children.
And while extending the deepest
sympathy to the bereaved family and
friends, for loss so irreparable, there
remains the feeling that their loss is
humanitys gain, not alone for the
precious lives he saved, but for the
enrolling example he left behind
Nicholas Foster working humbly die

memory will live. Men who died like
Foster do not sacrifice their lives be
cause they are foolhardy 1t is tru,
they act on the spur of the moment
but they are actuated by thoughts an,
instincts that stamp the man, and
which lacking save the coward. Foste

SO much that the McNamaras may
be murdered, but in order that the
working class may be beaten into
submission" Everywhere Social
lists seized upon the incident TO
preach more vindictive gospel OF
class war.
Even when the stunning confess
sion became public. no Socialists
leader expressed the faintest de-
gree of horror at the crimes that
had been committed. They were
all engaged in reviling the confess
sion as a plant" to injure the
Socialist ticket in the Los Angeles
election 1t was not until the
country had begun to appreciate
the full significance of the pleas Of
guilty that Socialists leaders sud-
denly discovered that they were
opposed to the use OF dynamite in
advancing their doctrines. But
they had been preaching a class
war in language that led logically
to dynamite and murder. If social
and economic conditions in this
country are one-tenth part as bad
as Socialist orators and writer's
pretend. workinsmen would be
justified in resorting 10 any
weapons to release themselves from
an intolerable slavery.
The fact of the matter is that
under its irresponsible leadership,
American socialism has been deal
ing in an incendiary demagogism
that must Inevitably turn such
minds as those of the McNamaras.
Socialism can not shirk it's share
of the responsibility and throw all
the blame upon organized labor.
Its language has consistently given
the lie to it's own doctrines.

She that was Chrysanthemum

With bloom leaves her eyes are blind
And her singing mouth is dumb,
Here she lies where all must come
Eyes dark as indigo
Now a deeper darkness know;
Hair that Knocked the ravens wing
Feels its lotus whitening
After days grown wearisome.
Lotus flowers between her breasts
Rests ms deeply she rests;
Milky veil about her rolled
Feels seeds quicken In it's fold,
Heat she fears not, nor the cold,
Here she lies where all must come.

Music Will not stir tonight.
