ALL BOW TO MY LORD TIGER
Natives of the East Most Willingly
Accord Him Royal Rank--ls
Sacred From Attack.

OF all the animals deified in the East
none is regarded with more awe than
my lord tiger Especially throughout
Siam and Indo-China, the tiger is king.
Shrines are built and sacrifices made
to him; he is as sacred from the at
tack of the natives as is the white ele7
plant Of Siam.
If there are fewer tigers in this part
of the East today, it is due largely to
the efforts Of western SpOrtSmen VINO
occasionally can persuade, bride, or
threaten a few natives to aid them in
hunt. Any such lack of respect on
the part of the natives is, however,
looked upon frOwningly by their neigh
bors who seem to fear that the tiger
will forget the exact individual who
attacked him and remember only the
community.
Native reverence goes SO far as to
allow a tiger to prowl undisturbed
about a village night after night, at
lacking and sometimes killing those
so unfortunate as to cross his path. In
the day the sacred beast retires to his
mountain domain, where he stays en-
tirely hidden until nightfall.
1t is obvious that the royal tiger
rules entirely by fear. Awe-inspiring
he is himself, and his supremacy is
helped along by the attitude of the
natives. To the tiger are attributed
all manner Of supernatural powers. 1t
is held that he always knows and
tracks down those who offend him; he
can even turn himself into human
being, the better to seek out his enc
mics.

Or:oin of the "Foolscap."

The fact that the British govern
ment on economy bent, has discOn-
tinued the use of foolscap paper for
official correspondence, has called
forth a mild discussion as to the
origin of the name. Most authorities
are agreed that it is due to the water
mark, fools cap, with which this SIZE
of paper was adorned, but when II
comes to the question Of who first IN
troduced it authorities differ Some
say it comes from Germany, and point
to the fact that German paper, bear
ing a foolscap watermark, and dating
from 1910, was exhibited in 1877.
Others credit the claims of SIR John
Spielman, who had paper mills at
hartford toward the close of the SIX
teenth century And yet others lay it
all to an order made by the ruEp
parliament which enjoined that the
royal arms in the waternark be re-
moved from the official paper OF the

FIRST OF MODERN PUGILISTS
Jack Broughton, EngIishman, Nearly
Two Hundred Years Ago, Formu-
lated Rules to Govern Sport.

Jack BrOughton, the father OF pu-
gilism, fought his first fight on July 3,
1925. He was engaged in many rough
and-tumble fights with other lads, but
at that time he knew nothing OF box
ing, which was just being introduced
by James Figg. While attending a
fair Broughton was attracted by box
ing booth kept by Figg and was much
incensed by the foul tactics used by
a big man in boxing a much smaller
one. He demonstrated with the big
bruiser and an alteration ensued
which had reached the stage OF tlstl-
cuffs when Figg interfered and invited
the two men to the stage to settle their
differences. Young BrOughton, after
ten desperate rounds, completely trl-
umphed over his older, bigger and
more experienced opponent. That was
BroughtOn's Introduction to the ring.
After Figg's death he became cham
pion and by formulating a code OF
rules to govern the game he became
entitled to rank as the founder OF
modern pugilism.

EVERY SPORTSMAN SHOULD BE
MEMBER OF STATE ASSN
BY Peter P. Carney
Editor National Sportsman

Every man who fishes, hunts, traps,
or shoots at the traps, should be vital
" interested in the work of his State
SportsmanS association.
Every man who loves life and enjoys
recreatio out of doors should affil-
late with the state organization-for
in numbers lies strength.
An organized body of true sportsmen
can do more to prevent Illegal fishing
and hunting than is commonly believ-
ed. Real sportsmen, the kind that
make up the association membership,
will not violate laws, nor viii they
permit others to do it.
Working together through a state as
ISOLATION these things can be accom-
Eplished:
Game can be restored
Fish can be brought back in album
dance.
Stream pollution can he abated
, Forest fires can be checked
Clean craftsmanship can be made
| popular.
! Good legislation can be enacted.
! The game hog can be checked
| Sportsmanship can be brought into
| high repute.
! One of the most progressive of our
! State Sportsmen's associations is the
| Michigan organization. The object of
! tnlS aSSOcldtlon IS worth study. here
! it is:
To bring together into the bonds of
fellowship all that great body Of true
sportsmen and lovers of the great
outdoors in the state of Michigan:
to create a central body through
/ which the sportsmen may work
unitedly for the conservation and
propagation of game and fish. but
not to the exclusion of hunting and
: fishing; to increase the number OF
true sportsmen in the state through
education and unite them for the adj
vancement of true sport; to lend
support and encouragement in the en-
forcement of protective laws and to
be in position to fneak as a sports
mems body upon all proposed le9is-
lative enactments affecting the inter
ests of sportsmen.

vile Athletic club. 20 to 0, before a
small crowd. 1t looks like another sue
cessful season for st. Mary's team as
it played a fast fielding and a heavy
hitting game, making only one error
and fiftene hits. Mcintyre starred for
Greeneville while for Jewett City Jar
Wis was the star. Besides pitching a
superb game he made three hits and
scored four of the 20 runs. Saturday
at Norwich the st. Mary's team is to
play the academy and as both teams
have won their opening game of the
season it looks like a hard struggle
from start to finish, but the Jewett
City boys are confident of bringing
