Not Use ON
Island Of zap Z?

II President Wilson is well enough
now to read this magazine, should
ike to make a suggestion to him on
this matter Of deporting the Bolshe-
viks.
I'm glad. enough to see them going,
goodness knows. / can't even read
about them in the newspapers with
out gettin all het up.
Most Of them were poor, oppressed
refugees fleeing from the govern
ment, OF hunger, when they came to
US. We took them in, warmed them,
fed them, gave many of them a stead
Ter job and more money than they
ever had before; and while we were
busy in the front yard, beating off
a mob of Germans, they stayed be-
hind in our home and plotted to
break up the furniture, turn out the
members Of the family, and keep the
house for themselves.
It's time we got rid Of them; but
isn't it a rather low-down trick that
we're playing on poor distraught old
Russia?
Wouldn't it be better to deal with
them as Milton tells US the first Boil
sheviks were dealt with?
Things in heaven were going
pretty well when a crowd Of migrate
full spirits, headed by a gentleman
named Satan, decided to overthrow
the government and seize the king
dom for themselves.
These spirits were warlike as well
as laxative. They organized an
army and had a real war, using much
modern machinery.
They were defeated, but no at
tempt was made to imprison them.
Instead they were given a secluded
place all their own and allowed to do
with iteas they would.
It was ar absolutely free place.
No one had to work; all authority
was removed; there were none Of the
improvements that had existed in
heaven.
Of course they made a very dis
tressing discovery; they found that
the worst punishment that could be
visited upon them was the necessity
Of living with themselves.
which way / fly is hell; myself
am hell" SATAN exclaimed. He would
gladly have made any surrender to
get back to the heaven whose govern
ment he had sought to overthrow.
But the gate was closed.
I understand we received a prize
ae the Paris Peace Conference,
named the Island Of zap. have
never seen it, + do not know exactly
where It u.s. But is sounds like fine
place to send Bolshevil1s.
Why not/buy out the present in
habitants fif there are any inhabi- !
tantsl, and turk the island over to
the folks who don't like the way we
run things here and are sure they
could do it SO much better? Let
them organize to suit themselves. /
Have no house rules, except that no
member may leave the island.
That seems to have been the d.
vine plan Of dealing with their for
bears. When they rebelled against
the heaven God was conducting, He I
gave them a heaven Of their own.
And they promptly made it Hell.

knockout king may catch the champ
at an unwary moment and spoil his
frontpiece, or at least that part of it
technically known as the tower jaw.
That is one of Brennan's favorite
landing fields.
The story of Brennan's early life is
not known, altho If he should end
Dempsey's championship career he
would rank with Babe Ruth, Senator
Harding, Governor Cox and Ponzi in
the limeight, far outclassing Sergeant
York, whose spotlight days are over.
Brennan belonged to a union in Chi
cago about four years ago. Whether
it was the boilerniakers or the amalga-
mated soda dispensers or the car car
penters doesn't matter. One day they
went on strike, Brennan walking out
with his union. He was picketing his
plant with another union man when
seven thugs, hired by his company
made an attack. Brennan and his pal
cleaned house. Had the thugs been
Indians, it would have been apprO-
pirate to say: Seven redskins bit the
dust" They haven't been the same
men since.
Brennan's union, pleased of his
proves. grub-staked him in the prize
ring. They backed him in a fight at
Chicago with Billy Clay. That was
four years ago. Billy Clay started after
Brennan when Brennan swung once.
That ended the bout.
With this as a starter. Knockout
Bill Brennan took on all corners and
knocked most of them out in the first
round. He was literally a bear for
punishment. And today:
Brennan is as active on his feet as
cat. His punches resemble Babe
Ruth's swats in effectiveness. He is
cool headed and never gets excited, no
matter how badly his visage may be
spoiled. He is liked by all who have
come in contact with him and he is
under the manager of one of the
squarest men in p: n. Leo Flynn

"HOT STUFF"
BY HUGO.

Louis Disbrow, who drove the Essex
racer, No. 27, in Fridays races and
who. was quite q favorite among the
grandstand, is a man As years old.
He has been driving races for the last
eighteen years and is known all over
the United States and Europe, as a
racer, never giving way, and always in
the game.
Its the only game I ever was in
terested- in" said Disbrow, land when

hardest thing I ever did"
Disbrow by no means looks his age,
BUT would be taken to be around 80 to

black hair around his temples now
beginning to be touched with gray.
and he has a cocky little mustache.
The crowd was much enthused over
the way he rounded the curves, and
played with his opponent on the
racing fans as the grand old man
of the dirt track"
j. Ray La Plante, pilot of the Stutz
racer in Fridays races, is the only
Frenchman racing on the fair grounds
track. He is a youngster, only "a
years old. and has been driving only
three years. yet he won places in~three
races Friday, taking a first, second.
and a third. He was flight sar-
geant with the French Air service
during the war, and was engaged in
testing planes. He had 900 hours of
flying.

sits at the wheel of the white and
green Stutz, and not only looks good,
but he acts good.

That means a lot to a fighter. Many
a good man in the fistic arena has
been ruined because of an incompetent
or dishonest manager.
Dempsey will have to stand the acid
test in this fight. The betting odds
are heavy on his side and of course
he is easily the fayorite. But he is
wise enough to realize he is dealing
with no amateur. An accidental blow
on a vital spot would carry his cham
pionship INTO the limbo of bygone
days.
It is easy to prognosticate, so here's
one: Keep your eyes on Knockout Bill

Babe Ruth Getting Rich.
1t developed today that Babe Ruth.
the greatest batsman of them all, is
this baseball season of 1920 thru his
prowess with the willow When the
season opened Ruth is said to have
been guaranteed by the New York
baseball men $500 for every home run
made this season in excess of his
twenty-nine record for 1919. To date
he has made just twenty more home
runs than in 1919, which net him the
tidy sum of $4,000 under this guar.
antee. And the season has some three
weeks to run.
But that is not all. for the Pride
ofsthe Diamond nets $4,000 this year
from a movie contract. gets $4,000
from a soap company, $4,000 for talk
ing into a monograph, will draw $2O,-
600 or more as his seasons salary and
has more than a fair chance to figure
in the worlds series profits. All of
which makes him the best paid ball
player to date for any one seasons
efforts. The best of all. there is not
fan or player who begrudges the pop
ular star l cent of his great income. y

Putting.

Putting.
There is no fixed method in putting
Some putt eff their right foot. others
off the left. Some stand with their
feet together. others with them apart
However, there are a few fundamental
principles which should be followed.
They are:
l. The body should be kept perfect
ly still until the ball is well on its
way.
?. Keep the club head close to the
ground thruout the stroke.
3. The hit should be true-firm,
slow and deliberate.
i 1. Be up to the hole.
The grip is the same as you use on
other clubs. Stand close to the ball
with, your head directly over the ball.
Get set and size up the hole by placing
the club head in front of the ball.
Then you lift the club back of the
ball. Take the club straight back and
make the back swing as short as pos
sible. The club is taken back by the
bend of the right wrist. Your right
arm barely touches the right leg and
the left elbow is kept out toward the
hole during the entire swing. In the
forward swing the right wrist straight
ems while both hands travel in time
with the club head. The club head
is close to the ground. The elbows,
hands and club head follow along after
the ball, keeping the head still until
the ball is well away. Be up to the
hole hit the ball firmly enough to
reach the back of the cup. This will
give you confidence, which is the key
note to successful putting.

New York, Sept. 1S.-The mighty

show the heavyweight champion that

this--knows that he is facing 4 the
fighter who holds the worlds knock

Little is known of Bill Brennan

he has been regarded by authorities.
who have traced his career for a long
time by the medium of the count, as
one of the most formidable men in
the prize ring today. His ardent ad-
mirers are praying that he'll land on
Dempsey just once. They ask no
more.
In 80 fights. Brennan has scored "A
knockout. Think this over Demp-
sey-has. and that is why he is UNDER
going a far more rigorous training
than at any other time in his career,
except when he was preparing for
the match with jess Willard at Toledo
a year ago.
And it isn't the first time that
Dempsey and Brennan have met. In
1918 they battled eight rounds and
the knockout king was more than
holding his own when he broke. his
ankle / MS constituted technical
knockout for Dempsey. In Milwau-
kce, where this scrap was staged,
Brennan stood up under Jacks light
Mag punches without giving way an
inch. In this one fight he faced the
champion for a longer period than did
willard, Miske. Fulton and Morris in
their combined battles with Dempsey.
So it is apparent that the Madison
Square Garden fight is not going TO
be child's play for Dempsey, and there
is every chance in the world that the

machine every mile, says it was a re-

three blOwOuts, and used 78O gallons
Of gasoline. They had practically no

roads OF the east are far superior to
those of the west" Mr.. Frazier said.
The trip took them over deserts and

the Middle West and the fruit dis
trlcts of the Far West. At one place
four gallons of gasoline were used n

STATE WOMEN IN POLITICS
Republican Women Caucus, While
DemOcratie Members are Exclmden


The final parting of the ways OF
the members of the executive com
mlttee of the Delaware State EQUAL
Suffrage Association came unexpect
edly Friday morning at their meetinc
at Rehoboth Beach when the Repub-
mean members held caucus in a sep
arate room, from which the Demo-
cratic members were excluded. The
democrats have not vet held a meet
ing but expect to later. The Repub-
ncan caucus decided against the hold
ing OF county conventions to select
members of the State Committee and
at once named Mrs. T. C. dupont.
from New Castle; Mrs. Philip Bur
nett, from Kent county, and Mrs. Il.
u Houston, from Sussex county. to
appoint members from each district
TO the county committees.
Before the parting of the WAYS
came, the entire executive committee
passed resolutions against a sepa-
rate party, but advised independence
OF votes and a demand for clean
election. Following this the Repub-
means caucused, while the Demo-
Gratis withdrew. The newly organ

no more than look after the in
structlng of women how to vote and
