that Peter Jackson, George Dixon, Joe

scores of lesser lights made hundreds
of thousands of dollars and were ac-
corded square deal, both at the ring
side and in the press. This to my
mind is a tribute to the fair play Of
the average American. 1t must be re-
membered that most of the fighting
until within fifteen years took place in
the south; there were mixed bouts and
to the history of the fighting game it
must be said that there is not single
instance of any unfairness.
If we like the no less physical con-
test, but staged under a more "cul-
tured setting we may turn to college
athletics. Within the last fifteen
years we have champions on track
and field. It is not my intention to
name them all, nor could I. Poague
of Wisconsin, quarter miller; Taylor
of Pennsylvania, for whom they hold
memorial exercises still; Marshall of
Minnesota; Pollard of Brown; Dis
mond of Chicago; Drew Of Drake uni
versity and host of others. These
men held US in the limelight and made
friends for us by doing better than
anyone else. The friendships they
formed with their teammates made for
us long after the men were out of the
running.
Iowa has had some good men. Often
in conventions or upon introduction
men ask me if I knew such and such
an athlete. Since my day in these
parts we have had Alexander, all state
tackle; Abbot of South Dakota, stellar
football player and track man. There
is Richmond Of Des Moines college
with us now. Then comes a legion Of
high school athletes, Of whom Des
Moines has the cream. There is Stone,
for whom the Negroes Of Des Moines
have done absolutely nothing. Take
this list: Stone, Morton, Allen, Ash
by, Beverley, Blagburn, Mcclure,
Drew, Kelly, Howard Brown.
All these boys are known all over
the state. They work hard, they are
better than the average boy, they are
doing more to solve the problem than
any other one factor, yet they are al
lowed to go year after year with no
sign of appreciation on the part of
the citizens in this community. It is
true they share in banquets that are
given the teams, but the most precious
token is lacking, to the shame of Des
Moines. Yet we expect these boys to
take up our problems when we let
them solve their own. There is abso-
lutely nothing being done for the
school boys and girls in this commun-
ity save that which partakes of a re-
ligious nature-to the shame of Des
Moines. tMs:al6fa

Now Look Out.

When cold hangs on as often hap
pens, or when you have hardly gotten
over one cold before you contract an
other, look out, for you are liable to
contract some very serious disease.
This succession of colds weakens the
system and lowers the vitality so that
YOU are much more liable to contract
chronic catarrh, pneumonia or consti-
patton. Cure your cold while you can.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has a
