Give a Hand.

In every community there are sue
cessful men-men of experience, men
of means. In every community there
are young men who might make sue.
cess of life. They have it in them !;
all they lack is some one to give a
hand. 1t may not be money they need,
perhaps only an interested friend.
Somebody helps whenever young
man gets started right in anything.
Somewhere every successful man got
a start by some ones help. To keep
the world moving on an upward slope
the process must be made perpetual.
Each man, once started, should be-
come a starter Of others. And who
starts another gets himself along at a
more rapid gait. There is that in
helping another that reflects not credit
alone to the agent, but bent Of mind,
an outlook on life, generosity OF
soul, that wins way forward for him,
self also.-Thrift Magazine.

BEAUTY COMES WITH GROWTH
American Towns, If They Are Well
Planned, Will Develop Along
Proper Artistic Lines.

We see American towns in the proc
ess of growth, and the slow transition
from hastily erected "shacks," one
story general store, blacksmith shop
(these are still needed), garage now
adays, church and a~schoOdhOuse,
into fourishing community not al
ways attractive. There is a period
when there are no shade trees, when
streets are dusty or muddy and I'M
pearance about everything. 1t is not
so many years since large number
of the towns and villages Of Indiana
had an unkempt, untrimmed look. Seen
from trains in passing, they looked I'M
inviting. AS matter Of fact, the res
idents had other things to think Of
than beauty. They were building their
homes, making their living by arduous
labor, sending their children to school
and sacrificing many desirable things
for the sake Of the necessities. This
is the history of all towns.
The conditions are different now. In
diana is full of beautiful towns and
small cities that were the gopher
prairies" of years ago. Beautiful
homes, handsome lawns, paved and
shaded streets, substantial business
houses, attractive public buildings, in
Guiding libraries, and general air Of
prosperity distinguish them. The same
people live there who were there at
the beginning. When they and their
children came to the point where
beauty and luxury could be added to
the necessities of living, they reached
out and provided them. 1t is the way
with American towns.-Indianapolis

TECH AND CENTRAL
BOOKED TOMORROW
High School Title Hinges Upon
Result of Battle to Be Fought
Out in Stadium,

Weather permitting tomorrow Cen
trail and Tech will go to the mat for
their annual baseball struggle.
Central is heavy favorite to win
not only the Tech contest, but with II
the 1921 baseball championship. The
Mt. Pleasant lads have defeated Bust
ness, Western. and Eastern in a row.
Tech has defeated Business and
Eastern and lost to Western. A win
for the Manual Trainers. which is by
no means impossible, would create a
three-cornered tie. such as obtained
last year when the schedule was con-
cluded.
The Business-Eastern game sched-
uled for Tuesday was postponed on &C.
count of wet weather. 1t looks al
most impossible to stage the Tech
Central game tomorrow on account
OF the wet going in the Mt. Pleasant
stadium.
In the event the game Is played Il
is not unlikely that Eastern and
Business will be prevailed upon to
play their game off as part of a
double bill.
As the matter now stands there
will be Tech-Central game or a
double bill, or no game at all.

NEW YORK, May 5.-"if George,

think the fight will last a round
Dempsey will slaughter him"
Jack McAuliffe, famous old light
weight champion of the world, who
retired undefeated in 1898, made
this prediction today.
I'm not belittling Georges" he
explained. 81 merely believe he will
make the mistake Of his life II Re
PUSHES the champion. On the other
hand II Dempsey attempts to box
Carpenter I think it will be cur
tains for the champion.
Dempsey Is a natural-born fighter.
He makes a fight as he sees IT or as
1t 10 carried to him. He goes in these
with eye. brain and fists centered on
his opponents jaw or his midriff. At
this style he Is in q class by himself"
CARPENTER BETTER BOXER,
Carpenter. on the other hand, Is
more of a book-taught boxer. though
he has mastered tho fine points Of
the American style. 1t isn't that
Dempsey lacks cleverness as see
IT. but that Carpenter is the better
boxer. In a boxing match / think
Georges would be all to the merry"
Asked for his opinion regarding
the selection of training camps on
the seashore by both boxers. Nc
AulifYe said:
1T all depends on whether or not
they are used to the salt air. The
: shore Is no good for a man who is
not acclimated. understand Car
pentier Is used to the seaside. Demp-
sey, of course, had a long siege of
1t in Los Angeles and IL didn't seem
to hurt him any. What hurt him In
the Brennan fight was long distance
training.
Dempsey is an all around athlete.
He's come from freight car to
parlor car and he's just that way, a
great lad. He is doing the right
thing by making plans to train for
only q month.
CBEAN OUT INSIDE.
He will be training for a boxing
match, not a finish fight. He is
just fat enough now to take off the
twenty pounds he will lose before
July and he'll do II by developing
ing out, he won't have to worry.
He knows how that should be done
IL he decides to do any drying on,
NJ all.
The big secret of training Is
getting the fat of the inside, not
the outside, and doing 1t while per-
fecting the wind and strengthening
the legs. That swat counts.
The biggest tragedy I ever saw
was the case of poor old John l..

But to get back to the big fight,

II think Dempsey will win It.
