Never in the history of the village
of Essex Junction, it is said, has there
been time when the supply of houses
to rent has been as scarce as at pres
emit. The chief reason is that during
the construction of the new dam sew
eral of the engineers and firemen are
there with their families and have tax
en- the best homes available; another
that the village has been enjoying a
healthy growth within the past few
wears. Several homes have been pur-
chased by people from the surrounding
towns who find that convenient shop
ping center as well as point accessible
to all parts of the state.

pointing to the Philadelphia fight with
Willie Houck this week as a splendid
example OF the wonderful boxing abil-
ity OF the Cleveland boy, who Is now

nasty cut above an eye. He went into
the Houck fight with the cut unhealed,
but covered with a patch of tape.
Houck is one of the smuggling sort of
glove artists who is always likely to
land a bunch OF hard blows. and IL
was feared that he would reopen the
wound and put Kilbane on the hos
pital list for week or SO. But not
once was Houck able even to threaten
that patch on Kilbane's brow, nor did
Johnny neglect his offensive duties TO
protect himself. Philadelphia fans in
sist that the performance displayed
the superlatiye of ring cleverness,
