rocked ODowd with savage hooks to the head.
 Through an accident to the lighting apparatus and other troubles the start of the big bout was delayed, but the throng of 5000 figlN fans that packed the big armory were well paid for the delay. The bout was a pippin from the first to the final bell, and left no doubt of the veteran Britton being one of the greatest boxers that ever drew on a glove.
 Britton's wonderful left hand com pletely baffled O'Dowd. Jack shot his leads in with the speed of a strik- ing rattler and the accuracy of a sharpshooter's bullet ODowd could find no defence for Jacks lightning and willy port jaw. But Britton showed himself to be a two handed fighter and backed up his fast lefts with nicely driven right hand smashes to head and body. His snappy inside uppercuts at close range repeatedly rattled Mikes mo- lars.
 Britton's de1ensive skill was beau tiful to watch. Jack slipped Mikes rushes. s3destepped, block or ducked his leads at will. He countered SUI. perbly and repeatedly beat Mike to the punch. Had Britton been con- tent to box O'Dowd the bout would have been an exhibition between a master and a pupil. But Jack could not resist the inclination to mix it with the heavier man. AtN times he stood toe to toe with O'Dowd- Even at the rough and ready style of mill

 While Britton clearly showed his boxing mastery of O'Dowd, Mike fought a game courageous battle and never backed up under the sharp att tacks of the welterweight Mike forced the fighting. but Britton met sim coming and cut him to ribbons on the retreat Head down like a cayuse bucking a blizzard O'Dowd steadily pushed in under the rain of Iefts and rights Jack bombarded him with.
 Britton frequently drove Mike back on his heels, but try as he might he couldn't knock Mike off his pins. Hard as Jack pounded him Mike only shook his head and bored in for more.
 Britton gave O'Dowd a real taste of the dynamite he packs in his punches in the final round. In desperate attempt to turn the tide O'Dowd threw all defensive tactics aside and plunged in Nike a madnnan-

 BEFORE 100000 FANS.

Cincinnati. Aug. 23-PIans are being discussed here to have the world series baseball games play cd at the Speedway at Sharon vile, fifteen miles from Cincin- natl. provided the Cincinnati Reds win the pennant- Within a week or ten days, it is asserted, the proposition will be ready for submission to the Board of Direc- tors of the Cincinnati Baseball Club.

Nation's Colleges Need $40, 000, 600

Harvard graduates have taken the
lead in striving for broader and more
widespread education by inaugurating
a campaign 10 increase their present
endowment fund by eleven millions Of
dollars, which viii enable Harvard to
raise the salaries Of tho teaching per-
s0nnel one-third, which is the mini

Statistics recently published by the

that 6OOGOO teachers, instructors, as
sistant and associate professors in the
United states are the poorest paid Of
any profession. With competition
kecner now than ever before IL Is not
surprising that the teaching profession
is rapidly being deserted for CONNER
cial and industrial fields offering nearly
twice the monetary remuneration.
Harvard has realized that in order TO
keep the greatest brains in The country
In the professional chairs, II Is impera-
tive TO pay them salaries compatible
with the work they do. and their bril-
liant scholarly achievements.
The salary scale in the great ma
ioriiy OF the higher institutions Of
learning in large urban communities is
below that in the secondary schools
located In the rural districts. where
the cost Of living is in many cases
about onc-half to One-third as high as
In the cities.
The following statistics compiled dur
ing i9io-i6, the last normal" year,
from 25G representative colleges To-
Gated both in large cities and in the
country, show there were 5000 teachers
serving on the combined faculties.
The total amount expended In salaries

The New High School
BY J. y. VI.

Somewhat back from the village street
stands the Academy-old, antique
shaded by those lofty trees
Whose spreading branches in the breeze
Whisper the story Of the past
OF noble youth and dainty lass
The laughing girls and boys Of yore
Whose voices come to us no more.
They-hayc passed foreer. those restless
feet,
To other highways stern and steep.
Deserted now this ancient hall.
To education has come the call
To build a school on model true
To suit a code in fashion new
The breezcs sigh-our hearts do. too
To break with the old is hard TO do
But life and youth move on abreast.
The setting sun gilds the mountain
