Dempsey had very little early train
ing for career in the fighting arena,
while the French champion was
close student of the glove game and
AN actual competitor when he entered
his teens
According to Dempsey's own story
his first fistic encounter was in an inn
provised ring at Montrose,, Co.,, when
he was about 10 years old. His OPP
ponent was a young blacksmith,
named Woods, whom he knocked out
in the third round. This initial con-
test netted the now champion $500.
His next fight also resulted in third
round knockout. Andy Malloy, who
had previously walloped one Of
Dempsey's older brothers, being the
victim.
When he was 20 years old Demp-
-sey began rowing around, taking on. a
bout whenever the opportunity offer
ed, while between times he returned
to odd farming jobs or worked as a
miner. His first Eastern experience
in the fighting arena was in New York
city where he met Andre Anderson,
Wild Burt Kennedy and Lester John
SOA, q uC6lO, III Icu IOuuu uO ucCkolOu
bouts. This was in 1916.
During the following year Dempsey
knocked out AL. Norton and Charley
Miller, each in one round. Later he
won from Willie Meehan, Carl Morris,
Bob McAllister and Gunboat Smith In
four round bouts in California and
was knocked out in one round by Jim
Flynn, the Pueblo Fireman" In the
following year Dempsey reversed this
by knocking Flynn out in single
round and followed up with a series
of knockouts, among his victims being
Fred Fulton, Battling Levinsky,
Porky Flynn, Arthur Pelkey and
Terry Kellar.
Dempsey's banner year was 1919
when after scoring five knockouts of
one round each in Pennsylvania and
Connecticut, he won the. title by stop
ping the big Kansan Jess Willard at
Toledo, O., on Independence Day two
years ago. -. ......

crowds which witnessed tho dailv
workout at Dempsoy's pu .duor CdH.i.
are getting larger each day. Women
spectators are numerous and they APP
plaud the champion as he goes
through his PAGES.
Eddie O'Hare, New York middle
weight, is making an impressive
showing in his workouts with the title
holder. He gives Dempsey a flashy
workout from the standpoint of speed
and stiffness He hooks his left
almost exactly like Carpenter, and
his moves are much after the fashion
of the French champion.

SOUTHERN GOLFERS
MEET AT NASHVILLE
TO TRY FOR HONORS
Bright Sunshiny Weather Cheers
the Hundred Amateur Contest
ants at Tournament.

Nashville, Tenn, June 21.-Bright
sunshiny weather marked the opening
here on the Nashville Golf and Coun-
try Clubs course, of the 18th annual
Southern Amateur Gold Tournament.
More than 100 players were entered
for the meet, the first days play of
which was the qualifying round of
eighteen holes medal play. Beginning
match play tomorrow, the champion
ship flight will be composed Of the
lowest 80 in the qualifying round with
two more flights of 80 each in the
tournament. The meet will end Sat
urday.
While most of the south's represen-
tative golfers were here, the absence
of Bobby Jones, Atlanta, title holder,
who is playing in the British open
championship this week, and of Mel
son Whitney, New Orleans, several
times title holder made the final re-
suit Il more open question than any in
previous years.
Whitney had decided to try for the
western title this year, it was said,
and decided he could not take the
time for both meets.
There were four favorites in the
opinion of local experts, the quartet
being composed of Perry Adair, At.
lanta, Polar Boyd, Chattanooga &;
Frank Godehaux, of New Orleans, a
VANDERBILT student playing as a mem.
Der of the local club, and Tom Pres.
colt, Atlanta. The latter had the best
score in practice yesterday, making
70 Par for the courSn iS 70 and
the record is So, which was equalled
in practice match last week by God
fchauX.

FINDINGS ARE KEEPlNGS

Girlhood days are not so far behind
our young readers that they well re-
member and, still possibly on occasion
make use of that apt little phrase,
"Finding's keeping" To the writer's
mind it brings up remembrances OF
many picnic expedition to the woods
when one or another of the parry JOY
fully swooped down upon some such
treasure as a birds nest that had
tumbled out of its place in tree, a
blue-bird's feather, lost pocketbook'
or a pen-knife, and explained JOY
fully. "Finding's keeping!" That al
ways settled it. No one ever felt like
disputing the discoverer's claim.
There is another little phrase that
is even truer, though it does sound at
frst like a paradox. Giving is hav-
ing. This means that the only way
truly 70 possess anything is to share
il with some one else. For with all
things that are truly worth while we
keep what we share. And the things
we trv TO save entirely for ourselves
are the things we lose in the end.
Think of some of the things we all
look forward to having. Everybody
wants to enjoy "good times" mat
surely is a very normal sort OF WISH
"eood time" is like joke, 1t SIM
nlv must be shared in order to be a
GOOD time. Then there is knowledge.
We all hope to add to our fund OIL
learning as we grow older, and we
cannot fail to be impressed with the
fact that knowledge grows by beng
Unmarried to others. Men and women
who have given their lives to the pro-
fession of teaching tell US that the
surest way to make learning our own
"for keeps" is to pass along "hae we
have acquired to some one else. -,
Our friends we keep by beng Will
;na TO share their friendship with
others Nothing is surer to break up
a friendship than attempting to keep a
dearly loved friend all to ones sell
salfsfhness in friendships never
navs. And so it is with all the per-
manent possessions of life. 0ut
minds and our hearts and our sous
grow by giving with loving spir''
and in no other way.-Exchange'

DYE INDUSTRY MAKES
BIG GAINS RECENTLY
Reports Recently Issued Show
Encouraging Progress

The report Of the United States
Tariff Commission issued recently,
shows marked progress in the Develop
ment of the American dye industry.
The production of the various
classes of dyes during 1919 was equal
to. or in excess of our pre-war i'm
ports, with the exception of vat dyes
other than indigo. The manufacture
of these vat dyes has required the
highest technical skill, long research
and a large investment of capital ana
much progress was made in 1919.
The domestic production of indigo,
which excel the 1914 imports, the re.
port says, is one of the most notable
achievements in the production of dyes
during 1919. Indigo ranks second in
consumption in the United States.
Although the average price per
pound for dyes during 1919 was the
same as that for 1918, the consumer
received better value for his money,
as the dyes produced during 1919
were of higher quality and in many
instances were of faster type than
the dyes available during the previous
year.
Production is 63,00O,O0O Pounds.
The total production of dyes during
1919 was over 63,OOO,OO0 pounds, an
increase of per cent in quantity over
1918. and 3S per cent in excess of the
pre-war imports. An analysis of the
figures for 1919 shows many instances
of a decrease in those dyes which are
relatively easy to make an increase II
the dyes of better quality, and the ap
pearance of many new dyes during
the wear. The domestic dye industr!
has been particularly successful IN th'
production of those dyes for whicl
there exists a large and constant de
mand.
The output of certain dyes has beel
developed to a point beyond the do
mestic consumption and large quanti
ties of these have been exported, par
ticularly to Japan and China. In es
timating the significance OF thl
achievement in the expectation of dye
If should be remembered little com
petition was met in foreign countrle
from German dyes. 1t should also b
nointed out that any deductions as t
the comparative strength for the dc
mestic industry which are based o
exports of dyes do not consider tn
fact that during 1919 the domest'
production of vat and alizarin dye
was less than the requirements OF thl
country.

day, with diminishing business acti-
witty, the labor unions are demanding
that there shall be no immigration,
lest the labor market be so crowded
that millions will be out of work. OBJ
viously, we cannot consistently regu-
late immigration wholly on economic
grounds, for within six months condi-
tions may so change as to make any
such regulation disastrous. We must
Newark post., 1921-01-12

try to determine what sort of immi-
grants we can use and how many Of
them we can safely admit. Then we
must exercise our right to keep out
those who by defect of quality or sur
plus of quantity threaten our national
life. America cannot serve the world
by letting the world destroy whatever
makes America capable of service.

Roadside Nut Trees Help
Mountain Highways

Michigan is the first State to Offer
reward for planting nut trees beside
highways. In Europe the profit from
roadside nut trees assists in main>
tanning roads. Roadside nut trees
abroad are protected from vandalism
by public sentiment, and this is true
of the nut orchards in the principal
centers of production in this country.

What Shall be Done
With the Immigrant


Somewhat more than year ago
The Companion printed a series of /
editorial articles on immigration. It
was not then clear whether we were
about to be inundated with veritable
spring tide of immigration, or whether
the European peoples were going to
stay at home to reconstruct as best |
they could all that the war had torn
down.
That question has now been answer
ed. Every steamer that crosses the
Atlantic brings all the immigrants it
can find room for. At least three
thousand of them on an average reach
Ellis Island every day. The officials
of the big steamship companies tell
US that we cannot conceive the de.
mand there is for steerage accommo-
dation. They declare that fifteen mil
lion people are struggling for
chance to crfoss the Atlantic.
So far the tide of immigration gives
evidence of being somewhat foul and
muddy. 1t is drawn chiefly from
countries in the east and southeast of
Europe-countries that suffered the
most both during the war and fo,
some generations before. There is
among them an extraordinary amount
of poverty, ignorance and disease.
Ellis Island is crowded beyond en-
durance with men and women who
cannot meet the by-no-means exact
ing demands of our immigration laws,
and who must be deported. On some
days half of the shiploads that arrive
are turned back as unfit to enter the
country. It is natural, Of course, that
the most unhappy and unfortunate
should be the most eager to change
their lot; and it is probable also that
the European countries, though MAX
ing every effort to keep the intelligent
and able-bodied part of their popula-
ton at home, are quite willing to see
the less useful members Of society
drawn off.
Congress is considering a bill that
will put a complete stop to ordinary
immigration for gear or more. 1t
,, is doing so from a reasonable fear
4 that we cannot properly assimilate
such flood of immigrants, most Of
them from peoples whose languages
i manners and modes of thought are
: remote from our own. We have hac
: our warning; we have found out thai
l. a man does not become an American
merely by landing in New York ant
getting job. He is likely to bring
y with him from Europe his prejudices
, his hatreds and his smouldering dis
Il content, and all those things are NOR
than ordinarily acute just now. HI
y and his like rarely go out into tn
country; they crowd ,ur already over
e grown industrial cities and make in
t creasingly difficult the task of main
Il tanning domestic peace ahd nationa
10 unity.
One thing, howeve is clear. What
u ever we do about the immigrant W
+ must do solely from the point of vieN
e of society as whole. Six months ag
II eager employers of labor were clam
! oring for more immigration on tn
II ground that the labor supply of tn
country was absurdly inadequate. Tc
