Round of Joplin Fight.

Joplin. Mo. Jan. Hired Fulton

Tate of Nuwata, Okla. in the second
round of a scheduled twelve-r round
bout Tate went down twice before
stopping a blow to the jaw that put
him out.
1t was apparent from the opening of
the bout that Tate was outclassed.
Fulton opened with a left jab to Tate's
stomach and followed with another to
the same place. A nard left to the
face brought blood from Tate's nose
and mouth. Tate swung wildly and
sent in a hard uppercut that Fulton
barely missed, but Fulton came back
with an overland swing that sent Tate
to the floor He remained down for
the count of nine. Fulton sent in re-
peated jabS to the face.
Tate came back in the second round
with vicious swings that Fulton
lodged. Fulton again sent in hard
punches to Tate's face and with a
right to the jaw sent Tate down. Tate
got up only to be sent to the mat
again. Another hard right put the
Texan down and his manager, Billy

You can Bring Back Color and

When you darken your hair with
Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can

just dampen a sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your

or two, your hair becomes beautifully
darkened, glossy and luxuriant.
Gray, faded hair, though no dis

slows down under the thought that
peace is near, the tale will be far diff

Meantime, Germany may appear to
yield as far possible to the Lloyd
George and Wilson terms The ex-
tent to which she camouflages certain
sections will measure just how badly
she wants peace.

This is how officials prophesy the
next steps" in this mighty maneuver
which has already laid the foundations
for peace:
l. Germany will answer the terms,
accepting some, appearing to accept
others.

her credit she will then set about in
earnest to negotiate peace.
3. Russia will do-what? If Lenine

ton of the Wilson message in the Rus
sian press, that will mean a long
stride toward swinging Russia back
to the allies. If they try to suppress
it totally or partially, it will mean they
are not to be trusted and that Wilson s
doctrine must be spread by American
propaganda, slowly.
