Leonard Getting Hcfty


Why doesn't Benny leonard box

Some say II is, because Penny
doesn't trust the intelligence OF New

not box with the champiouship at
stake unless he can name tho Off

pion. but he isn't entitled 10 prRi-

and under the rules officials FOR
all bouts are appointed by the

There's a theory, too. that Benny
Is too heavy and can't weigh in un-

OLD HOME TOWN PAPER
 TO HAVE A WEEK
Nation Wide Campaign Launched for November 7-12-PIace in Commu-
 nifty Life Emphasized.

November TIP has been set as Sub scribe for Your Home Town Paper Week." and this newspaper together papers the United States over-there are not far from 15,OOO of them, week lies and small dailies-is to partici- pate.
 The purpose of the campaign is not only to induce residents of the small communities and the home town folks who are far from their native heath to subscribe for the home paper, but also to emphasize the important place the home newspaper plays in the life of it's community.
 This campaign has the hearty SUD- port and cooperation not only of the newspapers but thousands of minis ters and school principals, and many state agricultural colleges and farm and home bureau organizations
 Some persons, 1t is pointed out, have been inclined to belittle the place and function of the country newspaper. They have not realized that in reality the home paper is a community insti- tuition and that 1t enables the other institutions, such as the church and the school and all the rest to functiG.l better and more effectively. That it is a necessity if the town is to advance.
 During the time between now and Home Town Paper Week." Novem- Der TIP, this newspaper in its col umns will have much to say about the Home Town Paper-nOt this newspa- per in particular, but the home town paper the nation over, the home town newspaper as a real and distinctive factor In American life.

GOT WRONG "GlRL" !"
One Occasion When Monarch's
 Plans Went Wrong.
Might Be Difference of Opinion as to Whether Joke Was on Frederick
 or the Corporal.

Those who read history with an eye to the humorous as well as the impressive, sometimes stumble upon funny and witty happenings in which the great were forced by humble be- ings or by circumstance to play lu- dicrous parts, writes Mark Stuyvesant in the Cleveland Plain Dealer. The following incident seems as though 1t had been designed to swamp with laughter the carefully carried-Out and often cruel plans of Frederick William I. of Prussia to have a corps of giant soldiers.
 It Is said that Frederick's agents searched the world for giants. flag gard, to whom we are indebted for this information, tells us that Frederick paid an Irish giant, who was ' feet high, the sum of $6,5OO to enlist, yeritable fortune In those days.
 But Frederick, who was miserly, disliked to pay such sums even to achieve his ambition for an army of giants. He determined to breed giants as we'll as to buy them. Whenever he found tall young woman he had her married to one of his tallest soldiers. No thought of the desires of either was permitted to stand in the way of his ambition. Sometimes Frederick resorted to trickery to bring about his wish
 One day when Frederick was riding in forest, he came upon beautiful girl about 6 feet in height. She did not know the king by sight. This Frederick realized when he stopped to talk with her. He we'll knew the girl could not read, for very few wom- en of his day, even of the highest rank, possessed this accomplishment. So Frederick asked the girl if she would like to earn a thaler or two by carrying a note to the commander of a nearby fortress. She said she would like to have the money. So Frederick wrote a note. It read:
 Instantly have the bearer of this married to Corp. Fritz of the Gren- adiers."
 The unsuspecting girl took the note and left the king, who continued his NoS HI lIlC OppOSllc ullcClLOu Ouu- denly the girl realized that if she did the errand she would be late to an ap- pointment with her lover. So she hur- ried to the hut of a withered old woman, gave her half the kings money and the note to deliver. Then this beautiful, stately girl hurried away to meet the man she loved.
 When Frederick rode into the for tress that evening, ne commanded the woman who had borne the note to be brought before him with her husband. Imagine the shock to the king when he saw the withered old woman, who had been married to the corporal
 Needless to say, the story did not remain a secret in the fortress. It ran the length and breadth of Prussia, and other nations also laughed.

 "When I am told to smile I do smile. I show my teeth and I give my very best dog grin.
 eff anyone thinks that a dog can not smile they should see Mack, the dog, when he is smiling. Often I smile too when I am not told to smile.
 "I always smile when l see Mildred and especially after I have been sepa- rated from her for quite a time. And I grin then, too, and bark happily and I jump up and down when she comes near me. l kiss her too.
 "Whenever any members of the fam fly come home who have been away l always greet them and tell them how glad I am to see them. I think a dog should do that.
