BLIND MAN POULTRY FANCIER
Mlssourlan Has Made Success of the
Work, Despite Handicap Wrich

Blind Edward Jones of Jefferson
City, Mo-, has made a record in keep
ing poultry which many who have
eyes have not equaled. Moving among
his birds, which seem to understand
how he is handicapped, and guided
only by his sense of touch. he per-
forms his daily work. He has built
his own poultry house and brood
coops, and has Matched and raised all
his chicks. Blindness does not pre-
vent him from culllng his flock. The
birds not intended to be kept are mar
keted as broilers, and the others are
kept for the production of winter
eggs.
Mr.. Jones attended every poultry
meeting held in his section last fall.
He is nov trying to organize a poultry
club for bird people, and the home
demonstration agent In the county
has volunteered 10 read to the mem

Then came poor Purvis. They had

They lifted the runaways into their

pionship tournament which Bill Tilden
and his committee are trying TO stage on
the roof Of the John wanamaker store
The clubmen and their friends were
beginning to believe that the weather
man had taken a day off or been side
tracked somehow or other. Several
of the preliminary" matches had been
staged without any interruption and the
big act" the Richards and Johnson
match, was on when suddenly II became
dark and moist drops began TO fall.
Last Came Played Hard
Hope was held out that the visit
would be a short one But nothing doing
Instead OF stopping the rain fell harder
and harder as the Walla Walla Cluo
members say. The players were en-
gagged in hotiy contested game, VIC
tory for johnson meaning the set. john
son and Richards served, slid. skidded
and everything, but still no one gained
any advantage in the game. According
to Harm" Tally, the score went TO
deuce seven times Finally Richards
slipped ono across and the game and
honors were his--if there were any.
The hundred and some-odd spectators
with the exception of three lucky peo-
| pie having umbrellas-were rain-soaked
and the timely speech Of Referee "Al'
| Hoskins calling a halt was WELCOME

present and a quick dash for the exits
made. Thus ended the first lesson on a
wet-covered court.

worth going to see, and the spectators
DIDN'T mind the rain-for a while. Rich

set he Came to the net too soon and

CLASSY Lightweights Clash

result Is we find the star southpaw

Tender will exhibit before the patrons

like regular fight In fact. everything
appears regular except the weight.

night under 135 pounds Tender doubt
less will be satisfied. The rangy New
Yorker is a good boy. but those in. }
mate with Tenders class do not expect
the Quaker City boy to sufrer any set
back
The last fight staged in the Newarl,
armory was between Benny Leonard and
Johnny Dundee. This battle packed
them against tho roof. While Tender
and yelling do not possess the drawing
powers CT Dundee and Tender in the
Jersey city. they will play to many
ring fans, according TO Phil Glassman
Tenders manager.
A clean-cut victory will not add any
TO Tenders prestige. Right now Lew
admittedly is the class of the crop OF
lightweight contenders. He never scales
over the 130 mark and is legitimate
contender. So much cannot be said fc1

Tenders only gain in this battle VIII
