Tool dressing was only|as side lire
with j. E. Miller. His real occupation
was that Of check forger, according TO
y X. OutWater, city detective, and
WHAT time Miller devoted to work in
the oil field was simply an excuse or
means by which he could procure
samples OF checks used by the oil COM
panies for whom he worked, that he
might work on such paper in incrcas-
lng his own bank accounts. which
were scattered thruout the banks of
Tulsa.
Now In jail, Miller's career for the
second time has been cut short in the
profession of check forger. once be-
fore, so he admits, he served 22
months of twO-year sentence for the
same crime In Texas, having been re-
leased from the state prison there
only one year ago.

fen, commander of Germany's famous

premacy.

tain in the German army. The Ger

Of the Air" as he is reported to have
downed 5S machines. G~unemeyer. the
French aviator, is his closest competi-
tor, having brought to earth 90 ma
chimes.
The famed Tango Escadrille" Of
which he is chief is composed Of six
airplanes. Recently the escadrille
was set upon by a group Of four
American flyers. Lufbery, Parsons,
Willis, and Lowell. After a 45 minute
fight the American airmen flew away.

To Relay Is an Art

Sometime In the early nineties l saw
Kid Mccoy knock out a fighter named
Billy Stiff. Between the rounds Stiff
took the usual rubbing and tanning by
his seconds, but Mccoy occasionally
substituted a system Of deep breathing
and relaxation as he stood by the
ropes. 1 believe he was the first fight
err to spar with open palms, closing
his fists only as he struck. I recall
some interviews In which he was quot
ed as saying that he conserved his
strength by that manner, being re-
Taxed when sparring and tensing up
only for a blow. The fact was that
strength flowed into him In those mo-
ments of relaxing rs II flows into all
Of us. The big cats are instructive in
that respect. It's wonderful TO watch
their complete relaxation In most atti-
tudes. Children, too, have the quality.
