Belgian Christmas Shin

There had been no public announce- ment in Belgium, thanks to the Ger mans, of the toys which the American children sent in the Christmas ship to Belgian children, says Brand Whitlock in Eyerybodv's, but the news had got abroad and was known everywhere
 The toys which the American chil- dren had sent in tho Christmas ship over to the Belgian children were to be distributed on Sunday. I had asked that there be no manifestation in Americas honor that New Years Day for since assemblages were forbid den, it could only result in embarrass- ment for the officials of Brussels and difficulties for the people: the Bel gians had understood instantly and the word had gone out over the city that the demonstration before the legation was not to take place. And then a strange thing happened. In the morn ing, there on a table in the hall was blank-oook, bound handsomely in morocco, lying open at the first of it's white pages, with the inscription pre- mier janvier 1915.' And then, all day long, the people came quietly down the Rue de Traves. in pairs or in little groups, T constant procession. They came, signed their names in the book, left their cards, and wont away lifting their high hats without a word Those that had not time to sign, left their cards; tho little latch in the street door was clicking all day long.
 "All day long the silent procession streamed by. all day long the latch in the street door clicked and by night the book was filled with names and there were whole baskets, full of cards, literally thousands of them. There were letters. too. and flowers great bOuu,IetS and baskets that filled the whole legation, turning it into q bower of roses and of those lovely orchids of which Belgium is so prodigal. Late in the night they were still coming, the latch vas still clicking, the cards were still falling through that lift in the outer door-a beautiful expression of the gratitude of a whole city, a whole nation, for what America bad tried to do for them in their distress" !"

Photographs Taken at Night

Neither fog nor darkness handicap the super eyes Of the war department signal corps cameras, accoNSing to Edward Hungerford, who describes the remark abel progress of wartime aerial pho- tography in Every ybody's. He gives some interesting examples
 T have seen a photograph of a wan- ing moon over Rome-taken by the new process. It is the first real picture of the moon that have ever seen, although I formerly attempted the thing myself. Most Of the moonlight pictures that one sees are "fakes,' made by photograph ing the sun in various unusual and dr. tistic phases. But this was real One could see the tiny pools of water stand
 ing in the uneven places of the Tagging, the flickering street lamps at the cor ners. A ricture whose reality almost makes it uncanny. And the photographer who took the picture in the rain was arrested by a gendarme as being men tally unsound. He was only released when he took picture of the lieutenant at the police station and proved beyond a question that he could make good por- traits by artificial light.
 I have seen photographs made by this new process from the front row of a theatre balcony during the progress or the Ilay; others made in church during vespe.s and illumined entirely by the candles upon the high altar. The process is very new and it is very wonderful. Moreover, it is susceptible of adaptation to night observation, both from airplanes and upon the land."

Corbett's Daily Letter
 On Great Sport Topics
By JAMES J. CoRBETr.

state of coma at first over the mere thought that this totally unknown American boxer had the idea that he could whip Doherty But the Kid act ing his part cleverly. continued to insist that he could whip Doherty Finally his boasting tactics had the effect he had hoped for It incensed the miners to such a point that they went to Doherty and urged him to take on this Amer ican bluffer'' and dole out to him the worst beating that had ever been given to man in the ring.
 The match between Doherty and the Kid (under his assumed name) was made soon afterward. And the odds were five to one that Doherty would win. The Kid had taken along $l0,000 for the purpose of betting all of it on himself and stood to clean up q neat fortune had he been able to get all of it posted. But Dame Fortune ruled otherwise
 Hardly had the match been made when an American salesman, who was in Johannesberg, recognized the Kid and tipped off the natives at once to the identity of the dub who was going to fight their idol. Immediately all the Doherty money disappeared entirely. Wagering five to one that Doherty would whip an unknown was one thing, but wagering on his chances against the great Kid Mccoy was something differ ent.
 Mccoy went into the fight with Doher- ty on December 26, 1896, in a rather bad frame of mind. The fact that his iden- tity had been disclosed before he could put up more than s1ooo or so on his own chances peeved him nightly. The clev- erly devised coup had failed. And, in his disappointment, the Kid proceeded 1 to take out revenge on poor Doherty. The Australian may have been world beater in his own country and when pitted against the dubs of South Africa, But he was as a novice in the hands ot Kid Mccoy The American could have floored Doherty for the full count at any time after the first five minutes of fighting but he chopped Doherty into ribbons for eight full rounds. In the ninth the Kid decided that he had avenged himself sufficiently and sent I over the wallop to Doherty's jaw that put him to sleep for a long, long time.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1918-07-16

AS long as the ring game endures, Kid Mccoy will be remembered. not merely because of his wonderful skill as boxer and his wonderful achievements in the chosen field of his youth, but because of his shrewdness, his intelligence and his love for Slipping it over"
 One of the best illustrations of Me- Coy's love for pulling, or trying to pull, the nnexpected concerns his fight in Johannesburg, South Africa, on Decem- Der 26. 1906, with Bill Doherty, the Aus tralian middlweight champion.
 In 1896 Mccoy was in the heydey of his middIeweight career He had knocked out Tommy Ryan in March of that year after aone of the most memorable battles in ring history and had followed that success with triumphs over four or five other ringmen of rather national repute. Finding no more foemen ready to battle him, the Kid went into temporary retire. ment
 Along toward the latter part of the summer the papers began to print glow ing reports about Doherty. This Doher- ty had cleared his native land of formi- dable looking opponents and. when there were no more fights to be had in Aus tralia, he went to South Africa, arriving there late in the summer of 1896, where his success continued. He took on all corners, and whipped them into uncon- sciousness. The diamond miners in Johannesberg went wild about Doherty and acclamied him world beater.
 Mccoy, in seclusion, read all this. And then the great idea came to him. So he sat down and wrote a half dozen letters to sporting editors in New York and vicinity, telling the boys that he was ill the wilds of northern Canada, having the time of his life, shooting, hunting and fishing. He explained that he didn't plan to return to the states until well along in the winter.
 Mccoy turned over those letters to q friend who was setting out on a shoot ing trip into Canada, with instructions to mail the letters in the farthest north ern point he reached. And then Kid Mccoy, incognito, sailed away for Soutf Africa.
 When the Kid arrived in Johannes berg he gave an assumed name and de clared his profession was that of 3 boxer. At once the natives chanted tc him about the wonderful Billy Doherty and when they paused in their remarks the Kid cut in with:
 He may be good, all right, but think can beat him"
 Johannesbzerg laughed itself into 3

Chimneys and Civilization

From .'How to Think Better-The
 Physical Essentials" by Milo Hast
 ings, in Physical Culture.
 Have you ever wondered why the highest civilizations in ancient times were in the subtropical countries, whereas in modern times the highest parts of the temperate zones? The ex planation of this geographical transfer of the worlds eenters of civilization is the invention of the chimney, which made possible the heating of house without filling it with binding smoke
 Without artificial heat to make him physically comfortable, 1t was impos- sible for q man to think effectively in cold weather. While we decry the en- ervating effects of luxury that cause men to cease to think and to give themselves over to a sensuous enjoy ment, on the other hand, vital es- sential to prolonged thinking is phys ical comfort. Excessive cold stimu- lates physical activity, but checks the concentration of the mind in deep thought.
 Elaborate tests have shown that men do their best thinking when comfort ably clothed and in air temperatures or rom 4u to bU degrees. becduSet ol the necessity of writing with the hands and exposing the bare fingers, the somewhat higher temperatures from 60 to 70 degrees are used in modern buildings. The application of these principles to your personal work ii that you should keep the room in which you work at the lowest tempera- ture consistent with physical comfort If the tmperature rises much above 70 degrees, the mental efficiency falls off rapidly. At a temperature of S5 degrees the New York state ventilation commission found that the mental ef- ficiency was reduced in all forms of tests
