-FORTY-TWO HEAD OF PURE
BREEDS AT SALES PAVILION.

The N. L. Quesenberry sale of pure
bred Duroc Jerseys will be held at the
fair grounds sales pavilion, Tuesday
December %. This is one of the first
purebred sales of the season and offers
an opportunity for breeders of Durocs
to obtain some highly bred and very
satisfactory animals.

Quessenberry will offer for sale "for-
ty-two head of tried sows, yearlings
fall and spring gifts" The sale will
start at one O'Clock with II. S. Allen
of Charitan, Iowa, as auctioneer and

What of the New Year.

Redwood County Children need helpi
Not all of them for the county has
hundreds of fortunate children in hap
py homes. But there are some-and
there will be some for many years to
come-who arc not fortunate, who
have no homes, who have, in many
cases no parents or guardians, who
have poor outlook for getting that
fighting chance" to which every Am
erican born child is entitled.
The big need of these children is
homes-not the institutional kind but
real homes where they will receive the
careful care and training which means
so much to their future life, as well as
something of the gentleness and kind
ness which makes for the memory of
happy childhood which is their birth
right. There are such homes-many
of 'Chem-where a child could be Civ
en this care and chance and happiness
without too great sacrifice on the
part of the present occupants OF the
home.
To the owners of such homes the
Redwood County Child Welfare Board
is making an especial appeal at this
time when human hearts are softened
to child needs by the memory of the
wonderful good the Christ-Child
brought to the sad old earth years ago.
To these softened hearts the Board
makes an appeal for the real homes
that these children need, for the love
and care which viii make better fu-
ture life possible for each of "the
least of these" This is call for real
service rather than for the giving OF
mere funds, and the call is urgent.
The Welfare Board is not asking
that these children shall be cared for
without remuneration-in all cases
suitable monetary compensation will
be made for their care. The object IS
to get them into homes where their
future life may be helped instead OF
hindered-where they will be given the
personal attention they cannot receive
| In institutions. Anyone who can offer
such a home TO one of these children
| either now or at some future time Is
asked to communicate with Glenn Lu-
lkens, secretary of the Redwood Conn-
tty Child Welfare Board, at his office
at the courthouse in Redwood Falls.

All Asked to Help.

Every resident of Redwood Falls
and of Redwood county is appealed to
by President Wilson to come to the as
sistance of Herbert Hoover and the
European Relief Council, during the
State collection for funds which be-
gins December 10Th when 100000 is
sought in Minnesota and $33,000,000
is needed from the United States to
caring for 100000 waif, sick, and
starving children of Europe until the
1921 harvest.
while in Europe President Wilson
made several trips to devastated dis
tricts and correspondents mentioned
the fact that he displayed visible emo
ton on more than one occasion when
he saw the plight of child victims of
war in Belgium and France. "Said a
statement issued today at State Head
quarters of the European Relief Coun-
ell in Minneapolis.
president Wilson made contribu-
ton of $500 which will feed and clothe
twenty children until next summer.
Early responses received from gener-
Gus residents of Minnesota indicate
that Minnesota will take care of her
quota of young lives. A half million
dollars, according to Mr.. Hoover, will
care for $4,000 children until the next
crop. American relief will be extend
ed only to critical cases and in coun-
tries where assistance vitality is need
ed. Poland, swept by Bolshevik devas-
tation, Austria Hungary and sections
of Germany where crops were an alb
solute failure, are in the most critical
need for help. 1t must be remember
ed that for every dollar raised in Am
erica, the equivalent of two American
dollars win be produced by the gov
ernments and other agencies in the
stricken countries"
It is considered probable that Presi-
dent Wilson's appeal, and the appeals
of the eight great organizations which
comprise the European Relief Council
will be touched upon in sermons in
churches throughout this County Sun
day.

Whenever you discourse on great fights, don't forget the Jack Dempsey Bill Brennan affair in Milwaukee a couple of years ago." advises Larney Lichten- stein, the Chicago promoter. There have been a lot of battles with furious action, but never have l seen anything that equalled that scrap.
 Tt showed me two thngs-a maddeneG Dempsey and an exhibition of die-gane fighting by Brennan that rarely has been eclpsed in prize ring history It was Dempsey's fight from the tap of the third gong on but before Brennan was whipped he showed, courage of the ldnd that earns medals.
 Brennan took one of the worst beat ings a ringman ever had to suffer that night And he took it because he hit Dempsey a blow in the second round that would have ripped an ordinary maas head off his shoulders; a punch that would have flattened 99 fighters out ot 100 for the full count.
 But the ultimate effect that it had on Dempsey was to transform him into raging lion with but one thought in mind of utterly crushing Brennan. And nc succeeded.
 '.rd seen Dempsey. in many of his fights. 1 never had seen him hurt ana maddened in any of them before that night. q wondered when blinded with rage. And that night saw. Allu II say now that if 1 ever had to fight Dempsey I'd be careful not to make him mad at me.
 The boys didn't do an awful lot in the first round-just sort of warmed up to their work; sort of feeling each othef out, although it obvious that in the shifting around Dempsey was looking for an opening for his lightning blows. With the bang of the second round bell, Brennan, a big bruising type ot fighter, with one of the most powerful right hand smashes possessed by any man. rushed over and caught Dempsey coming out of his corner. Bill monkeyed with his left, saw a hole for Dempsey's jaw and, putting the 200 odd pounds of his whole body behind the punch, let it go for Dempsey's chin.
 Tt Ianded-and with q noise that could be heard 90 feet from the ring; landed square and full on the vulnerable point of the chin. The punch lifted Dempsey off his feet and shot his whole body back to the ropes.
 "As the kid went backward, I daresay there wasn't a man in that whole audi torum who didn't feel that the fight was over. Never in my life had 1 seen any man hit where Dempsey was without going down. But Dempsey-well, when the Utah Mauler' went back into those ropes. there was a fractional dropping of the head-just momentary, that's all.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-06-23

In less time than it takes to tell, the head came up again and shook like mf,h would shake his head who suddenly hal become doused with water.
 Brennan. following it's advantage, was charging at Dempsey Before the Utah fighter could get away from his position against the ropes. Brennan hit him again. And then-then l saw Jack Dempsey start to fight as he never fought before.
 "The famous scowl of his became a smile in comparison with the look on his face then He had been hit, and hurt. And he was out to secure revenge. Anger famed in his face such as I've never seen before on any man. But somehow or other Dempsey still had sufficient con- troi of himself to display marvellous gen. eralship.
 "He didn't tear into Brennan with ter rible fury through the rest of that round He had been hurtfi and he decided 10 wait until he had rest after the round before he would cut loose.
 "Hut when the bell rang for the third Dempsey began to tear into Brennan Tn such a way as I've never seen before. He fairly swept the huge Brennan off his feet with his merciless, cyclonic attack. He rained blow after blow on the face and body of Brennan and transformed him into a terrible mass.
 Maybe Dempsey did try for knock out through the third, fourth and fifth rounds But IH,always believe that his main purpose was to chop Brennan to ribbons: that he was carefully avoiding finishing punch because he wanted to punish Brennan to the fullest extent be- fore he sent him down.
 "But all the while Brennan was show ing gameness that was remarkable. He was beaten fighter, and he knew it, two minutes after the third round started. But he wouldn't quit He fought along, trying his best to stem the Dempsey rushes, and though he knew that every time he moved toward Dempsey it meant more smashing, he continued to keep faced toward Dempsey
 If became apparent in the sixth that Dempsey had decided he had secured suf- hcient revenge, and he laid his plans for q knockout He maneuvered Brennan into position and then drove a straight right square for the jaw. It was a blow which, had it landed, might have broken Bren- mans neck. Everything Dempsey had was in that punch. Fortunately for Bren- nan, it missed by an inch. But the force of the blow carried Dempsey's body against Brennan's and the impact nearly knocked Brennan flat.
 Right then and there Referee Walter Houlihan decided that Brennan might be dangerously injured by further fighting and he stopped the fight that ever will seem to me as the most sensational or thousands that I've witnessed"
