Coyotes Are
OBSERVERS of
Sunday Now

Junction City, Kan, Jan. 1.-THE
coyote, generally conceded the smart
est of the wild animals remaining in
this section of the country. has learned
to recognize Sunday from other days.
according to farmers living in this
country. He has come to know tho
sabbath as the day on which the
hunters concentrate in an endeavor to
round him up. All of the wolf drives
held in this vicinity are staged on
Sunday mornings, and on those days,
the farmers say, the coyotes appar-
emily hide out. At any rate, they are
much less numerous on Sunday morn
ings than on other days of the week.
A hunt Sunday in the coyote in
Tested country south of this city re-
suited in three of the animals being
shot. approximately 500 men with
shotguns took part in the drive and
the lines were air tight, but in spite
of this, and despite the fact that
coyotes had been seen running in
packs of from six to ten in this ter
ritory only two days before the drive,
only three members of the tribe were
bagged. The same results have pre-
vailed in other drives and the farmers
say the coyote has learned to recog-
nize the Sabbath when it comes
around and observes it by keeping in
his den.

Tense of his conduct during the war
was made by Jack Kearns, Dempsey
manager. in signed statement issued
here today. The statement follows:
Jack Dempsey was not a draft
dodger' during the war. Any one who
makes such charge cannot support 1t
with facts.
when the draft came Dempsey
was placed in class "A because he was
a married man. and, in addition. was
supporting a mother, an invalid broth
er and a sister. Dempsey made no
claims for exemption.
Some time later the draft board,
readjusting classifications, placed
Dempsey in class Al, but almost i'm
mediately afterwards put him in class
2-B. He remained there during the
rest of the war. If the conflict had
lasted a few weeks longer. it seems a
certainty he would have been in the
uniformed service.
During the war Dempsey was en-
ployed as a riYeter in the Sun ship
building plant of Philadelphia and
also in a ship yard in Seattle. He also
was appearing in fistic contests at ben
efits for the different war charities
