. ENVY vALGER tonight mee

ID ENVY vALGER tonight meets D Frankie Britt of New Bedford in the big Armory A. A. in Boston. Upon the outcome ofsthis battle rests the answer to the question of wheth- CT the Frenchman will meet Johnny Kilbane at Matt Hinkle's club at Cleveland on Memorial Day. Person ally we look forward to a stiff battle, but select the New Yorker to win.
 Benny, in our opinion, is one of the cleverest men in the ring today. He is a, clever little chap, full of pep and with two strong and powerful mitts. His victory over Ralph Brady of Syracuse not so long ago was evidence that this lad has not reached the point in his career when he is entitled to a championship match.
 But Johnny Ki1bane, the champion, insists that Valger first eliminate Britt and if successful he will talk busi- ness with him

TT HE INDEFINITE suspension of \ Vincent Richards. the sixteen year-old player who won five national championships last winter, came as a big surprise-and disappointmen to those who have watched the young ster in action. The charge against Richards was that he illegally allow ed his name to be published in the advertisement of a certain depart ment store in New York. This, the Amateur Rules Committee of the United States Lawn Tennis Associa- ton claims. automatically threw him out of the class of amateurs.
 To the tennis student this verdict is a hard blow, for it means that Richards can not play in the big tour naments that will be held in this country this summer. True the yer dict does make him a professional, cur as tennis is played only by anna teurs. 1t means that he will be forced to look on.
 So far as Is known Richards will offer no protest, but take his medicine quitely.

History repeats itself in base ball as well as in world politics. Last spring after the Dodgers lost their first nine games the Giants broke their losing streak for them. This spring after the Braves lost their first nine games the Giants again were wiling to appease suffering and lost same to Boston. The moral connect ed with this is: If you have lost nine straight games and want help see MT. McGraw.

Concrete Oil Tanks.

Storing oil in concrete tanks is the
invention of an Englishman. A tank
with a capacity of about ten gallons
vas recently made with a chemically
treated concrete aggregate, and after
being allowed to weather for seven
days molding was filled with parafin
oil. Thus filled, it was placed in 4
shed, where it remained for Is weeks ;
at the end Of this period it was care
fully examined. With the exception
of evaporation, no loss had taken
place; there was no sign of leakage,
and the outside walls of the tank were
free from the smell of it's contents.
Upon removal from the spot on which
it had been standing no trace of paraf-
fin could be detected, nor had the I'M
der side of the tank acquired any
smell. This is probably the most Sc
we're test hat could be applied to any
%container.

FORTUNATE Is HOMELY MAN
If UnduIy Attractive, the Unhappy
Male Seems Doomed to Misfor-
tune All His Life.

| have no objection whatsoever to
girls being beautiful, or to a oma
of whatever age being beautiful. But
| do insist that for a MAJ not to be
homely is his misfortune, Irwin S.
Cobb writes in American Magazine.
The handsome male starts with a
handicap at the very cradle.
Women of all ages insist on cooling
over him and talking baby talk to him
and chucking him under the chin and
kissing him-eSpecially kissing him
n since he is not of an age to APP
preciate these attentions the whole
procedure must annoy him %fcarfuIly.
Should his beauty last into his boy
HOOD the chances are that he has the
sort of mother who will make him
wear his hair long and force him to go
about publicly in Il broad lace collar
and a black velvet suit with a sash
about his waist, and that means other
boys will call him by extensively apt
nicknames and generally make his
young life a burden to him.
Most woeful of it all, if still his
beauty sticks to him after he has ar
rived at mans estate, only a de
termined and persistent struggle
against the odds of destiny and of cir
cumstances can save him from drift
ing into the ranks of the matinee
idols, the moving picture stars and the

HAVE STOOD TEST OF TIME
Quotations With Which All Are Fa-
miIiar Acquire Popularity Only
Because of Their Merits.

The quotation worthy of the high
title of familiar must have stood
the test of time and passed unhurt
through the shifting tastes and fash
ions of centuries. In its lofty or in its
humble way it must show that, like
Shakespeare, it was not for an age.
but for all time" | used the word
humble because the rhymes of child
hood, of the nursery, fulfill the re-
quirement of & in a quotation
worthy to be called familiar. Their
intrinsic, their abstract merits may
appear slight, they may eve seem to
be sheer nonsense, but they are passed
on by mothers and nurses and by the
children themselves from generation
to generation. We may be assured
that they would not thus have lived
and prospered if they had not pos
sessed some quality, however slender,
of genuine worth, of real humor or
imagination, which gave them per-
manence.
Then there are the popular sayings,
the folk tales and ballads and the
songs of the people with an ancestry
lost in the mists of antiquity, which,
stored in human memory and kept
alive only by human lips, have come
down across the centuries with their
endless variants until at last they
have been gathered up by the collector
and the antiquarian and made safe
from oblivion by print and paper.
These tales and ballads are often rude
in form and expression, but no curious
inquiry is needed to explain their long
life and lasting familiarity. In them
vol find wit and wisdom, sparks
struck from the hard flints of expert
nee by men and women struggling
unknown through what we call life

nearly three miles in circumference,
rising 900 feet above the sea, and is
perpetually e%nveloped in dark clouds.
which are visible for almost a hundred
miles.
The island is rich in sulphur, which
for some reason has not yet been ade-
quately utilized. In the interior is a
lake full fifty acres in extent, the wa
ter of which has a temperature of ITO
degrees Fahrenheit, and is strongly
impregnated with acids. Great guam
titles of steam escaping from craters
on n side of the lake form the cloud
that continually envelopes the place.
