year ago smashed Milly Miske into
submission. Given q golden oppor-
tunity to win = championship, dis
tinction that few men achieve, Billy
Miske fell quivering mass Of beat
en- humanity in his own corner at the
feet of Dempsey in less than minute
after the third round had started.
1.-TWO crashing punches to the jaw,
the first a wicked left that dropped
the st. Paul boy like log for the
count of nine and the other, meas
ured right from which Miske did not
recover for fully five minutes, closed
yesterdays chapter in the history Of

Just as Dempsey inserted the
wedge against Willard that cost the
latter his title, so did he open the road
to ruin for Miske. Jack played con-
stantly fir the head of his opponent
for half of the round then suddenly
shifting his attack to the body, drove
his right hand squarely against the
region of Miske's heart.

whether Dempsey has q better guard

flutes would soon grow weary OF a
long-drawn out boxing exhibition with
heavy weight bloves, even though the
highest skill were displayed. No, the
reason men pay $40 to 500 for box
seats at a prize fight is in the hopes
of seeing two men pummei each other
into Inconsistencies. If blood IS
drawn so much the better. A broken
nose, lips slashed to ribbons, streams
Of blood pouring down the naked boz
dies of the fighters, -all add zest to
the occasion and make the spectators
feel that they have not spent their
money in vain. And the crowd has no
use for the loser who, faint from the

FOR SHAME. MICHIGAN!

For a number Of years the laws
of Michigan forbade prize-fighting
The pugilists and eheir roughneck
followers were Obliged to go else

But the 1919 legislature, traditional
ly kind to anything that savored of
commissions, salaries and jobs, pass
ed an innocent-looking law to place
all boxing exhibitions under the SUI
pervision of state physical director.
This was not done for the purpose
of legaliznig prixe-fgrting. Oh, no,
certainly not. 1t was merely to
arouse greater interest in matters
athletic. 1t is even said that the ring

AS this message is being written,
Dodge Brothers daily, weekly and
monthly production, is at the high
est point in its history. n
The most casual sort of inquiry will
satisfy you that this production is
being absorbed as it is delivered.
Within sight and sound as we write
a great addition to Dodge Brothers
immense works, is being rushed to
completion.
The interesting thing about this sit
uation is, that it is not likely that a
half hundred people have ever
bought Dodge Brothers Motor Car
just because they wanted a motor
car.
Of the more than half million who
have bought 1.-THE overwhelming
majority did so because of the name
it bore.
1t has always been treated, by the
American people in particular, as
an xception-alway set apart,
and singled out, and never judged
by ordinary standards.
1t has always been thought of, and
is still thought of, first, and fore
most, and all the time, only in terms
OF its goodness, and the results it
gives.
All of this is wonderful, in one way,
and quite natural and logical in
another.
1t all dates back to the day when
John and Horace Dodge conceived
and designed and finally built the
car--after warning each other, and
their associates, not even to think
of it in any other terms than the
best obainable value.
They began with few almost alb
surdly simple principles, bluntly
expressed and rigidly executed,
executed, about decency and honor
and integrity-such as most of us
wrote in our copy books at school.

TEN REASONS WHY
it is to your interest to REFLECT
MONTGOMERY WEBSTER, Judge Of Probate

L. BECAUSE he has conscientiously given the office his
best efforts and your county has benefited there
Bly,
g. BECAUSE there is nothing to be gained by putting
in another man and experiments dangerous.
8. BECAUSE he never fails to accommodate.
A. BECAUSE the Probate Office is different from other
county Offices the best Probate Judges being
those who have served long enough to make them
selves of value to their counties.
s. BECAUSEfyou obtain the benefit of his experience
and his knowledge of the estates of Ionia county.
g. BECAUSE other Probate Judges of the state strong
y ly endorse his work.
T. Because his management of the JUVENILE WORK
has been satisfactory and he has protected the
rights of the widows and orphans. The first busi-
affairs of widow often at the Probate
Court.
8. BECAUSE through his management your Probate
office has gained the reputation of being of
the best handled in the state.
8. BECAUSE business succeed by dsmissing
experienced and capable and filling their
places with inexperienced men whose experience
must be gained at the expense of the business
10. BECAUSE many of the best managed Probate offices
of the state have judges of much longer service
than he Judge Durfee, of Detroit is serving his
44th year; Judge Bush of Corunna, is serving his
32nd year; Judge Stone, of Hilsdale and Judge
Larwi of Adrian both serving their goth
year. and many others for longer terms than Mont
gomery Webster showing that length of service is
a benefit to the county.

Good Will Triumphant Uuder Test

They reduced these old copy book
maxims to splendid and scientific
system, pouring more and more,
and still more value into the car,
and then marshalling all the re-
sources of modern massed manu-
facture to get their product into
the hands of the people at an hons
orable and an honest cost.
These policies and principles have
never been changed, and never will
be changed, by SO much as hairs
breadth; and they have come to be
recognizedsa nd accepted as Dodge .
Brothers principles wherever mo-
tor cars are driven.
1t has all happened as John and
Horace Dodge planned it-quite
simply, naturally, and automatical-
ly, all over America, and all over
the world.
People do discriminate, as Dodp
Brothers contended they would;
people will find out when a motor
car is well built and gives good SER
vice and great good value.
Dodge Brothers market today i
where they planned to locate and
establish tin the mind and the /,
heart of every man and woman who
admires good work, well done.
It will last, and it will keep on
growing, as it has kept on growing
for five years Easter than Dodge
Brothers works could keep pace
with it,, as long as the number of
those who believe that manufac-
turer should build to serve and not
merely to sell, continues to increase
All is we'll with Dodge Brothers to-
day, because John and Horace
Dodge builded we'll in the begin
ming, and because their business
will continue to build well until the
end.
