News of former Topeka girl, who
has renowned parties and dances to
take a part in the great worlds work
concerns Miss Caroline Dickey, the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. w. l..
Dickey of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Miss
from the Chicago university, and dur
ing her residence in Chicago and at
tendance at the university, she be-
came interested in the work of Jane
Adams, of Hull House. A few
months ago she went to Kansas C:fy
and took a minor position with the
Board of Public Welfare. Her work
in the slum district was SO enthu-
siastically and capably done that she
received last week an appointme rs
district superintendent. The city is
divided into districts, and the office
to which Miss Dickey has been adj
Vanced is one of conSidera BILE impor-
lance in the department. Miss Dickay
is a niece of Mr.. and Mrs. J.. F. Jar
relI of Topeka.
Mrs. Roland P. Murdoch of wichita,
has secured a fine collection of COLI
temporary American paintings for the
fair and fall festival of her city. The
Business Mems association of Wichita,
have written a letter to the club wO-
men of Topeka and other towns of
the southwest, to visit the art gallery
while the pictures are there. The col
lection, though small, is as good as
any shown in the large cities, and the
paintings are the work of living rep
resentative American artists. The OPP
portunity is a good one for the study
of our own painters work. They were
secured through the courtesy of the
Folsom &, Macbeth Galleries in New
York.

Brain Is the Essential Of
Athletic Success Thompson

OF their paws could fell a half
dozen men and which would be
unembarrassed by the most violent
attacks on them with a mans
hands that were taken, strapped
down, chloroformed and under the
surgeons puny hands it's great
paw slit and slashed at will Could
the man do that because his hands
were stronger or more rugged than
the lions paw? Why, it was en-
tirely because his head was keener
and his soul great in wanting to
relieve from pain.
But the great danger that | am
fearful of is not that such declara-
tions as these will be made un-
true, though they are, but that
being made and carrying with them
somewhat of truth, though it be a
small fraction. will be accepted on
face value because of the quasi
guarantee of good character the
grain of truth will vouchsafe to the
whole the most of it pernicious
and false.
An English writer gives us What
England is suffering from the most
at present is not falsehood. but in
cesantly reiterated half truths"
But the tight little isle" is too
small a place to monopolize such
wide truth 1t fits America. 1t fits
what we're talking about. And in
just this way.
Brain Most Important.
The hand, the immediate instru-
mert in any work, is important.
That's undisputed But what
makes the hands worth rap is
what's behind them, what directs
them. The only reason any mans
hands are ever brought to notice
is the fact that a good head brought
him into the limelight. We notice
that some men are weak because of
weak hands. because of any of
thousand minor Weaknesses. But
why do we notice them in particu-
lar? Why! Only because their
head work brought them into
prominence. We could probably
find a thousand strong to excess in
the one given particular whom we
don't care a rap about simply be-
cause they had nothing with which
to direct that asset.
It's not so much the natural as
sets or talents we have. It's the
head that uses them and the heart
that colors their use that counts.
A group of stupendous assets at
the very best gives but a perfect
machine but body; just a body,
coupled with a keen head and
great heart. gives us a man,
noble sentient creature. and that's
the noblest work of God.

Sporting Writers Nearly Always
Differ on Result of Big Bouts

Johnson of Reno and the Johnson
of Las Vegas
The writer takes his stand with
those who believe that Johnson
tires more readily and is a less
formidable puncher than he used
to be. l have seen Johnson in
every contest of note he has figured
in. in this country. since he de-
feated Frank Childs at Los An
geles, nearly eleven years ago and
am therefore in a fairly good posi-
tion to Judge of his present fight
ing prowess.
incidentally, johnson is one of
the hardest men in the lighting
world to get a line on. He is such
a consummate ring general and
everything he does within the
ropes is done so artistically, that
it is anything but easy to tell when
he is in trouble.
In the affair with Flynn he held
on and stalled around with a grin
on his face and with no particular
appearance of being flurried, but he
was an exceedingly tired champion
of the world just the same If he
had been the Johnson of other
fights instead Of looking hungry
eyed at Referee Smith when Flynn
began butting. he would have
broken his hold and punched Flynn
clear across the ropes.
Different Views on Los Angeles.
The different views held in re-
gard to the Johnson Flynn match
were not a Circumstance, however,
to the confusion of opinions that
existed at the Wolgast- Rivers
ringside 1t used to be saidAthat a
man interested in boxing did not
have to attend a fight to gain an
idea of what appened-that he
could read all the accounts of the
affair and strike an average. Any
one who could follow this course
in the Los Angeles mill would have
to be possessed of highly analytical
mentality
Whether Wolgast struck his op-
ponent foul or fair, whether Rivers
downed Wolgast with chin crack
or a smash in the pit, whether
Wolgast fell athwart Rivers knee
and whether Rivers was short
counted, are points that will be
argued for many a day to come.

BY w. w. Naughton.

TT is very evident that sporting
critics. unlike doctors. do not
hold consultations in refer
ence 10 the "cases" that come un-
der their observation. If they did
no doubt there would be more
unanimity of opinion in respect to
the merits of contests and COM
petitions of various characters
That sporting writer's should
view boxing matches and other
events from different standpoints
is as it should be A wise head
once said 'it's difference of opinion
that makes horse races" and what
is true of the sport Of the turf is
true Of everything else in the sport
ing line. Without difference of
opinion there would be no occasion
to arrange tests of skin, speed or
endurance There would be a total
lack of interest in everything re-
lating to competition. There would
be no sporting situation" in fact.
There is one thing, however, that
a sport critie should beware of, and
that is insisting his view of con-
test is the only possible and cor
rect one He should qualify what
ever opinions he writes with the
remark, This may not be the right
analysis, but it's the way it looked
to me-" For no matter what re-
spect his opinion commands, he can
only exercise individual judgment.
Critics Differed on Big Fight.
1t is doubtful if there were ever
a brace Of pugilistic happenings
that caused more difference of
opinion among the workmen of
the press than the worlds cham
pionships on the Fourth of July,
Those who held that Jack johnson
had showed no decline in fighting
ability we're fairly well paired with
the critics who noted-or thought
they noted-a vast difference in the

III a .FTER all, the hands are
~ the thing. Without them
the ideal perfect fighting
figure is as naught And with them
the head, the power and all the 9TH
er requisites of the successful ring
artist can have but secondary con
sideration."
And the above paragraph ap-
peared in a paper of standing in a
conspicuous place without apology.
Room was given for an article in
attempted proof of the above
points.
If that declaration be true one
the ring is forthwith condemned
suinmarily am not saying that
to disprove the statement that
Good hands are better than brains
in the ring" would leave the ring
free from condemnation. But | do
say that that is not the condem-
ratien that is to be fairly brought
AGAINST the ring The ring forfeits
its right to existence through the
fact that in all it's life it has never
produced a noble man. Men have
lived through a ring career and at
the end been distinguishable from
old battle-scarred bull -gorillas-a
few have. But that isn't because
the ring hasn't tried its best to bat
ter and bruise and coarsen them
out of any semblance of the sons
of God It's rather because their
hardest fight was won not in the
ring but outside in keeping them
selves from the taint of the ring
and its spirit
An Unfair Accusation
It is only fair that we clear the
roped arena of this unfair accusa-
tion. For in no field in which man
has faced man has the determin-
ing factor been the physical APP
paratus employed or every detail
of it, The big men in the world
stand out not because of the size
of their feet or the length Of their
ncses-such things are mere de-
tails and don't count in the final
calculation; but such men stand
head and shoulders above the men
around them because of their keen
heads and big souls You notice
that l say in no field" on which
man has faced man-in instances
in which man has faced man every
romantic possibility under the sun
has been fulfilled. And so if we
strove to obtain a judgment in
stance by instance the result put
graphically would make a good
representation of a high frequency
spark shafts and fingers pointing
to every point Of the compass. but
the main line of travel is clear and
unmstakable
And it points out clearly that
given two men everything in COM
mon of ordinary normal grade, the
one having the keener head. the
other the tougher hands. Why. of
course the man with the better
head would win. He'd probably
come out not only the winner, but
with his hands in better shape and
all the rest of him
