1t Is no uncommon occurrence to give
grown ups boxes of candy for Christ

their candy in their Christmas stock

from mothers. That is probably the
reason that the average child would be
delighted with Il box of candy of her
very own. One shop has mighty nice
boxes of candy, specially prepared for
little people. 1t has in it several kinds
of pure hard candy, and-ycs-even
some taf1ies on sticks, which have ac-
quired the jolly name of lollypops. The
box costs eighty cents
And, speaking of candy, ] saw a
very unusual candy box-the kind you
leave around on the living room table.
You will particularly like it If you are
fond of the work of the japanese. 1t

silky material in duh red or tan, elab-
orately decorated with birds and bear

BARRETT BILL
NOW COMPLETE
Local Fans Look For Corking
Good Show Friday
Night

Another big card has been COM
pIeted for Olympia A. A, at Steel
ton, by Joe Barrett. The show is
scheduled for Friday night Man
ager Barrett says, 'it is the greatest
bill ever offered and fans may ex-
pect some surprises"
The feature event, is the ten-round
bout between Billy Logan. the light
weight champion of the coal fields,
and Billy Angelo. of York, the Greek
lightweight champion. The mention
OF these two real scrappers in the
same ring, and the distance, ten
rounds, is enough to attract a packed
house, as their last bout, several
weeks ago, which was for six rounds,
was voted the greatest ever seen in
this section. All fandom is inter-
csted in the outcome of this battle
The special six-round fight be-
tween 'Rube" Bennett, Harrisburg s
best man, and "Bearcat" Raymond,
of Allentown, is another match on
the same order of the feature event
Both boys have the future to look
after, and no doubt their pace will
measure up to Angelo, and Logan.
Raymond, who has met K. o. Laugh
lin, four times, and, Bennett, were
to fight the feature bout next week
in Lancaster, but Barrett, had first
call on Raymond's services.
Bennett Has Good Record
Since being under the wing of
''Scotty' Hemphill, the Lancaster
promoter, Bennett has done great
work and fought nothing but star
bouts this season. In his last six
bouts, he has defeated Mike"
Howell, six rounds; Eddie Lincoln,
six rounds; Johnny Viggi, who was
matched to fight X. o. Loughlin,
here, in six rounds. Bennett also
knocked out Soldier McGoorty, in
three rounds, and the much touted
Philadelphia middleweight, Butts"
Clarke. only lasted two rounds with
"Rube."
Black Gunboat Smith. a local
boy, will meet Jim" Duncan in one
of the preliminary bouts. Young
Palmer, of Middletown, will meet
Red" Singer, of Dauphin, in the
opening bout.
