teachers. Thursday we were again
given demonstrations by the college
and In the afternoon with several
other county superintendent we
went to Fort Riley. The national
guards had come and had their camp
and tents all completed. Captain
Sneedy invited us to dinner which
consisted of beans, beef, bread and
coffee. We ate In soldier style, and
enjoyed it fine, but we don't want to
be soldier all the same. We drove
around Fort Riley and saw the beau
tiful buildings and grounds belong
ing to the United States military re-
servation, and hoped the day would
soon come when we would have no
more need of war and peace would
reign over all. These truths were
brought home to us every day of the
conferences: "It's what you do that
counts, not what you say" you
can't fool the world any more. 1t
doesn't matter whether it's farming,
or banking, or teaching or clerking,
as a mechanical or electrical or civil
engineer, architect, or scientist, or
working for the United States de-
partment of Agriculture, if you don't
know your business, and know it thor
oughly, you'll have to get out to
make room for the man who has pre-
pared himself" "This is an age of
education and the sooner everyone re-
allies 1t, the better. Brick layers no
longer adjust their speed TO the slow
est workman on the job. 1t is the
slow poke who has to change his gate
or find other employment. Where 1t
used to require sixteen movements
to lay brick it now requires only
five. That is efficiency" Another
thing-"the day has gone by in which
a man could get along without an ed
ucation. Education is as much need
ed on the farm as in any other walk
of life. 1t took long time to con-
vince the world of this fact, but the
world knows now. Almost all human
activity, from backing boots to buy
ing bonds, has now been reduced to a
science efficiency education" Now
il the state provides the educational
facilities, isn't it the duty of the
people to use them, to get the infor-
nation, to seize the golden oppOrtun-
ity for an education? IF it meant
heavy outlay, big sacrafice for faith
er or mother, there might be the
shadow of an excuse. An educatian
costs so little in dollars and cents.
Only the expense Of bed, board and
clothing; and many can work then
way through. Every boy and girl in
the state should have an education"
The state superintendent requests
that all the rural schools begin on
the same date-September 18th.
The district meeting has the power
to fix the length of the school term,
but has no authority to decide the date
upon which school shall begin, that
being clearly in the hands of the dis
trlct board. So, District boards, please
stand by us and help us to obey Or
ders from headquarters and get in
line with the other schools Of the
state.

 Tfat he never gave away his own championship to Marvin Hart or any. one else, and that he had no inten- tons of so disposing of the title is the statement that Jim Jeffries made last week to some Of the Los Angeles newspaper boys. James J. was be- ing interviewed on the subject of Yolgast and his title. and 1t was while he was contending that Ad couldn't be robbed of the throne that he made the declaration regarding his own affairs.

 ISen Jeff was reminded about the newspaper stories when Jeffries ref creed the bout between Marvin Hart and Jack Root in Nevada, in which it was boldly proclaimed 10 the world that Jeffries would hand over his crown to the winner
 Can't Give lt Away.
 Yes" answered back Jeffries, but that was all newspaper talk with no word of truth in it. If I could have given away my title l would have handed it to my brother and not Marvin Hart A championship of any kind is something a man must win by merit and is his until he los es it. A lot of people had the idea that ! gave Hart the title. but ] say again that I did not. This should ba strong enough
 As Q matter cE fact the heavy weight title was clouded for several years after the retirment of Jeffries Tommy Burns was the first to be generally accepted as the successor of Jeffries and Jack Johnson wrest ed the title from Tony Then the Jehries-Johnson bout was arranged there was more or less dicussion as to who was the champion. The Jef fries forces maintained in Reno that Jim was the champion and Jack John

 Manager Protests.

Willard Stuart, manager of Grover Hayes who lost the decision in New Orleans. to Lee Mandot, is out with a strong protest against the actions of the New Orleans promoters. Stuart in short, charges bad faith and crook edness and says the betting had lot to do with the decision.
 Here is what he says.
 Just returned from New Orleans, where Hayes was given a raw deal in. his bout against Mandot. The de cision was given Mandot in spite or the fact that Hayes had him in prae- tically a helpless condition. We bump ed up against an unusual condition, and the decision was rendered more to satisfy some of the gamblers and racing fraternity. who had control or the betting pool and placed it on the Mandot end, rather than to do Hayes an injustice. Some of the nnmerou. club officials were in on the pool and there was absolutely no way in which Hayes could have won except by knocking the man out. l am not 'welching'. but I feel that in justice to Hayes the true circumstances should be shown"
 If half what Stuart says is true, the New Orleans situation ought to be investigated closely by boxers before accepting bouts in that Southern city

Flynn is Located.


 Jim Flynn the fighting fireman of Pueblo, has been located, at least, partially located. Harry Foley, who is exceedingly anxious to match Flynn and Kaufman. had word yesterday that Flynn was somewhere in the middle west touring with a road show. The information is indefinite in that 1t doesn't say what is the name of the show that Flyn has attached him. self to. However. with that much to go on. Foley ought to have no great amount of trouble locating his man and finding out once for all whether Flyn is willing to meet the Californian in a return engagement.
 Kaufman wrote Foley yesterday that he was about to have a bout with Palzer in New York on Thurs day night December 2S It will be in the nature of tTyout for Al, for he hasn't boxed since he was whipped by Flynn He is fully confident of his ability to beat Palzer. and then wants to get Flynn just as soon as possible.
 There hasn't been good heavy weight scrap in San Francisco foi several years, and. judging from the inquiries received by Foley. any mum Der of people would welcome such { match
 "All sorts of people are asking m' if Flynn will box Kaufman" said Foley yesterday afternoon, and judg ing from that, such a match would b' worth while. I have written to Chi cago, and hope to get in communi

 FANS DESIRE
Man With Punch Always Wins PlauditS Over Fighter Who Is Just Clever
 in Ring
MCGORY IS A COME R
CBy E. W. Smith)

CHICAGO, Dec 19:-Irs the pusl that counts with the fight ian. The man without it is man without following The clever fellow is ad mired in a limited way. His skin is landed by the critic. his ability tC make the other fellow look foolish i. voted wonderful.
 But the chap who stretches the foe out at spines length on the mat is the chap who gets all the great glad ac claim from the crowd. He is the fellow whose name is shunted about in awed whispers. Whoever heard oi the clever fellow being carried out of the ring on the gang But how often have you seen the knOcker-ou, almost torn to pieces after a great battle by the slug-crazed mob? often indeed
 We are having new example of this thrust upon us. His name is Ed die McGoorty and he halls from Osh- kosh. Wis, where his people are widely known as old and respected residents For a long time Eddie was hailed as one of the real clever boys of the middleweight division. Oh, yes, he was as clever as they made them; nobody had anything on him as far as the real skill of the game was concerned But alas and alack, he couldn't knock a mans hat of with his feathery punch. they said.
 McGoorty Has WaIlop
 So the fans didn't get to care much about McGoorty and his fighting abil- ity. Even up around his own country, where be boxed often. he wasn't re- garded as anything of an unusual card.
 Suddenly a great change came over McGoorty. He developed a punch that was a corker. He started to knock out his opponents in one and two rounds and then. To and behold. McGoOrty became the great card in Wisconsin. Since his clean victories over Harry Goetz of this city and Jimmie Howard. another boy from this city, he has become a real favor ite and everybody is talking about him as one of the best middleweights in this country.
 As a matter of fact Eddie always has been one Of the best middles in the land and is even better now than he was some months ago Bearing in mind the fact that Eddie is still but a boy and has years in which to deyelope physically, and mentally. he should one day be our leading man in the role of this division.
 But if he gets heavier with it all Eddie will be in bad fix He has a good frame now, but whether he will ever be able to take on enough flesh to make him a serious contender with the heayies is a matter of conjecture.
 Already there are whispers that Eddie will find it a difficult matter to make 159 jounds. Eddie merely smiles at this and doesn't crack furth. CT. But he intimates that when the time comes that it is necessary for him to get down to the middleweight limit, he will be there like a duck
 Eddie must have done things to Harry Ramsey in Pittsburg night be- fore last because the papers were unanmious in giving him the verdict after the six rounds were over. And Ramsey is regarded as a pretty fair sort of fighter too.

way want real live lightweight to perform, I will sign up young Jack Redmond with Welsh, Murphy or Ritchie. Redmond has bested Wolgast, stopped Ray Temple in nine rounds. He is as good as Nelson ever was over a route, and delivers a heavier punch"
 If that is "old" Jack Redmond which is probably the case, it is nothing more than the resurrection of another lightweight.
