Photographer Hall took the most re-
markable picture Of his experience at
his studio here recently. 1t was that
of healthy and young looking father
and mother and their group OF nine
stalwart boys. The family stretched
out so long a double card had to be
used in making the proofs, which were
unusually good. When strung out the
boys reached from one side Of the
studio to the other. Mr.. and Mrs.
Miles Abrams, who live just south
west of the city limits, are the proud
parents of this fine set Of young men.
There was family reunion, and 1t
was decided to have the photograph
taken of every member.
Mr.. Abrams, the father was born In
Columbus, Ohio, 70 years ago. Mrs.
Abrams was born in the same state
and is SO.
All of the boys except the two young
est are married. Following are their
names, ages and places Of residence:

lao; Lou w., 81, Excello; Harold c.,
"a, Macon; George 20, Moberly; John,
25, Decatur, ILL.,: Harry 21, Macon;
Oenvar 10 Macon
Never in my life did I see finer
and stronger looking body Of young
men," said Photographer Hall "Ev-
cry one of them is we'll and hearty,
none Of them drink, and all are ener-
getic and industrious-know how to
make their way in the world. There
never was girl in the family, nor a
death. and, they told me, hardly any
sickness. Mr.. and Mrs. Abrams seem
ed very proud Of their fine bunch Of
boys and they have good right to
be-"

playing as the finals for the
championship will do.
America faces the hardest task
of the history of the game to re-
tain possession of the treasured
trophy. Five nations are repre-
scented by the pick of their tennis
players; America, England, Aus
tria, France, Canada and Bel
GUM being determined to take
the cup away.
Never before has so formidable
an array of tennis stars descend
ed upon defenders. But never
before has the United States been
so strongly represented in any
tennis event. Reports from
Westchester are that Maurice Nc
Loughlin is playing the best ten
mis- he ever has shown, which
means the best the world ever
has seen.
1t is unfortunate that Lindley
Murray, the brilliant Californian,
has been affected by the weather
and not shown his best form.
Tom Bundy, McLoughlin's old
team mate, is steadier. and Nor
ris Williams is going great guns.
