The resignation OF NJ. DE JoanniS Is
the climax of controversy that has
been going on inside the tennis feder-
alton since the return to France from
the United States of Mile. Lenglen and
her party. NJ. De Joannis was accused
of having urged the French player
Ito engage in tennis matches while
physically unfit to do so.'
NJ. De Joannis told the Associated
Press that thus far he had refrained
from commenting on the criticism lew
eied at him owing to his delicate po-
sition. and in view of the fact that D
"oman's name was at stake.

Mile. Lenglen," said NJ. De Joannis,
was perfectly fit when she met Mrs.
Moila Bjurstedt Mallory at Forest
Hllis. Mile Lenglen was defeated by
a player who on that date showed a
better brand of tennis. l blame her
for absolutely refusing to continue.
Suzanne's attacks against the
United States lawn tennis officials and
the public are absolutely unwarrant-
ed. She was received like a little
queen and treated with the utmost
courtesy. Her every whim and mod
was satisfied. She knows how to win,
but she does not know how to lose
gracefully.
The attitude of the United States
lawn tennis officials and of the Amer
lean public in the face of the repeated
defaults of Mile. Lenglen was very
lenient and above all blame Carpen-
tier is hero in America, despite his
defeat. because he showed grit and
went down fighting, while Mile Lam
glen placed France before the Amer
lean public as preferring to quit than

Joseph NJ. Jennings. treasurer of the

And" he added, Capt De Joannis
did not say half that could be said.
Mile. Lenglen suffered no physical
collapse while here. In her first
match against Mrs. Molla Bjurstedt

before she went on the courts. We
were particular to inquire regarding

a trace of a cough. She assured me
she never felt better in her life
Says She simply Quit.
Then. as she saw she was facing
defeat. the coughing appeared when
ever she lost a point, and. in face of
defeat. she just plain quit. In the
evening she danced for several hours.
The next day she. came to me and
apologized. She was not i'll and prom
ised to go ahead with the program ar
ranged for her. She quit cold on
every engagement We kept track of
her and found she continuously dis

Dispatch Attachments were served
on 30 banks In the surrounding sec

The story Of the treasure reads like
romance. In the sixties william Hol-
land, veteran Of the Crimean war, came
to this country from England and set
tied In the Pennsylvania coal fields In
1872 he came to Kennsy's creek and
began the development Of Q kiln. He
built q home here In 1885, where he
resided until his death In 1918.
He was an eccentric character, and
none Of his family knew Of his habit

Of heart failure. After Hollands
death the home passed into the hands
Of William Nelson, superintendent of
the coal company. who began repairs
and reconstruction. The gold was
found In different jars at different

GREAT ENEMY or HUMANITY
Spirit Of Fear Holds Many Back From
Heights Which They Might
Easily Attain.

The greatest enemy Of the human
race Is fear.
II we could Danish fear in all its
forms, It would mean more to civili-
zation than any previous step In evo-
luton. Health would be immeasur-
ably improved; much unhappiness
would be wiped out; efficiency would
be greatly increased, and success
would be the rule. With the removal
Of fear, would come real human broth
erhood. True democracy would begin.
II you are not as well. as happy, as
efficient or as successful as you would
like to be. you may find the why In
your fears
"As q man thinketh In his heart, 30
is he'-physically, in disposition and
In circumstances. Fear-thought Is tox-
ic, destructive and harmful. Some
forms Of fear.thought are worry, hat
red, jealousy, despair, anger, melan-
choly, encouragement, depression. con-
fusion, negativeness, nervousness, fret
fulness, self-consciousness, lack OF
self-confidence and foreboding.
Fear Of failure Is also caused by
not thinking we'll enough Of ones self.
To Danish this and all other forms OF
fear, one needs another kind Of think
Ing. Replace fear-thoughts with faith
thoughts and systematically cultivate
the new line Of thinking until It gets
to be q habit.
Takes mental inventory today
Seek out your hidden mental weak
nesses and expose them to the light OF
fearless analysis. Get to work upon
your fears and run them out. Flood
your whole mental region with faith.
Repeat daily and the results Will
amaze you.-C. Franklin Leavitt, NJ.

OLD White Meets Death.

Details of the capture and death Of
"Oid White" the ferocious leader Of .
pack of wolves that for years caused
great destruction among live stock on
Bear Springs Mesa, Colo, are contained
in report received recently by the Bu.
reau of Biological Survey, United States
Department of Agriculture. The cap
ture lacked some of the more spectacular
elements that marked the passing OF the
now famous "Custsr Wolf" but in many
ways 1t is looked upon as among the
notable kills made through the skill and
patience of government hunters In their
work Of Kidding the cattle ranges of the
West OF predatory animals.
Early In the spring, by the clever STRAIT.
egy OF one Of the hunters, the mate Of
this animal and one of the leaders Of the
pack was captured, and 1t was thought
that "Old White" would then fall q
ready victim. But he proved more diff.
cult, for although several good chances
to get the old fellow occurred, on each
trip to the government traps he would
"step lucky" a. the hunter described 1t.
Finally the hunter selected q favorable
spot and placed four traps In blind set,
and 1t was in these that the maraudel
was caught.
--"Old White" has black history and
caused losses In live stock amounting to
many thousands OF dollars. For IL years
he roamed the Bear Springs Mesa coun.
try. One rancher alone lost about "a, ,000
worth of live stock through his depreda'
tions.

Mrs. Gunter opened her mouth to

last she spoke:
II understand now why Phil was
willing to give up his inheritance and
defy his mother. Under the circum-
stances / should have done so. too"

shuts Out Sound.

Persons who wish to concentrate
their attention upon studies, business
matters or what not, often find them
selves most annoyingly distracted by
noises Of one kind or another. Street
traffic may be disturbing; the crying
Of a baby may irritate, or perhaps the
yowling Of cats on a back fence or
the persistent footing Of q cornet In
the neighborhood may induce e8asper-
alton.
To obviate this sort Of trouble, Ga
bino Janregui Of Bridgeport, Conn.,,
has devised what he calls the "eaf 81
lencer"
1t is a frame Of light construction
which may be fixed upon the head in
such a way that two screws carrying
soft rubber plugs on their ends are In
serted into the ears.
When this adjustment has been
made exactly right the two screws that
carry the rubber plugs enter the wear
er's ears horizontally and have only
to be frightened sufficiently In order to
fit snugly and exclude all troublesome
sounds.
