BOXING PREACHER
 OF KANSAS SIMPLY
 CANNOT QUIT JOB

Rev. Carl A. Blackman's annual re- signation again has been rejected by the congregation of the Christian church of Chanute, Kan.
 Once year, regularly, since the war, Rev Mr. Blackman has given his pariShionerS the choice of accepting his advocacy of boxing, dancing and pool, or hiring a new pastor, While the vote each year has been heavily in his favor it is by no means unani- nous.
 " ou will find me in the boxing ring, the dance halls, the lodge halls, the pool halls, perhaps in the alleys, or wherever men COngregatc, ii l con- tinue to preach to the Christian church of Chanute,' was the ultima tum contained in the minister's re cent resignation.
 Ijectcd-the congregation voted it's
 refused to accept, declaring he was amply paid, and that he earns some
 thing in addition by refereeing box ing bouts. He makes no secret of the fact. Furthermore, he declares he has a "double reason for enhane- ing his earning capacity. Twins recently came to our house." he said "If some person is
 to be paid for refereeing, and 1 do
 the work satisfactorily, 1 ought to have the money to help support those
 twins"
 His services as referee are today in much demand in Kansas, Missouri and Oklahoma. His presence in the ring Is regarded as a guarantee of a clean fight, His influence in making boxing a popular sport has been felt throughout this section. It was while he was chaplain of the One Hundred and Thirty seventh In fantry of the Thirty-ifth Division in
 France that Rev. MT. Blackman be- came devotee of the fstic game He
 was Known as "the fighting parson of
 the Thirty-ifth,' and justly so, for he
 not only supervised but engaged in many boxing bouts.
 In his own church the Chanute
 minister has put into practice his | theory that the church should spon- sor both boxing and dancing in the church.

 HOCKEY TEAM WINS

The Vas sar team held the visitors to four goals in the first half, but the English womcn's greater experience counted heavily in the second The visitors displayed remarkable individual play and teamwork.
 The match was played under the auspices of the department of .physi- cal education, and it was intended rather as an exhibition of the tech nique of the game by the visiting eleven, than as a contest. The game Vassar authorities announced, in no way indicates departure from Vas sar's policy of non-participation in in tercolegiate athletics.

Another OF Mr.. Sti1lman's witnesses
whose testimony is to be attacked is
Ferdinand Paige, who said that when
Mrs- Stillman and Beauvais started for
Little Wyagamaca Lake, near Grand
Anse, in December, 1916, they told him
they were going to stay in one of the
mall club camps on the shore of the
lake. Witnesses have made affidavits
that the camp referred to by Paige was
occupied at the time and that Mrs.
Stillman stayed at the main camp.
Paige and Harry Grennon in their
testimony for Mr.. Stillman told of
seeing Mrs. Stillman and Beauvais in
one Of the rooms of the St. Maurice
River camp from scaffolding on which
they were at work. Some of the new
Witnesses say that carpenter work on
the building was completed three weeks
before the date named, and Beauvais

showing the progress of work on the

Bcatmen who took Mrs. Stil,man up

to the camp will be called as witnesses
and are expected to testify that the
records they kept of her visits do not

concerning her presence at the camp
which has been given by witnesses for

counsel, and with John E. Mack, guar

pointed, however. to take the testimony
here.
The large sum allowed for defense of
the suit by Supreme Court Justice
Morschauser is almost exhausted and
Mr. Brennan expects to apply to the
court soon for further allowance.
Mrs. Stillman herself probably will not
appear at the hearings here, her
friends having advised her not to.

WHEN A JOKER JOKES
ON HEREDITY.

Our newspaper iokesmiths mad bet
ter take ARE these days that they have
their science on straight when they
dash off n funny one involving Natures
laws. Here's a supposedly funny joke
that loses all it's wit when 1t is run
down and examined:
First Citizen: u you believe in
herodity?"
Second citizen; "Of course l do;
I've got one OF the brightest boys In the
world"
The point the Joke maker wanted to
put over IL that the boy got his bright
ness from his father. the said Second
Citizen. But Nature doesn't work mat
way; Notwithstanding our ancient mis-
information on h%eredlty, boys and girls
are not clever because their W faith
ers and mothers are clever,
All scientists now agree that the
Mendel law OF heredlty is correst. This
because IL has been extensively and
| thoroughly tested tut during the past
half century and has been found clear

SOMEONE ALWAYS PAYS
FOR POOR BOOKKEEPING.

Someone must always pay for poor
bookkeeping, particularly municipal
bookkeeping. This time II happens
to be pat" Phelan, former city treas
urer OF Pocatello. His books we're
audited aud found to be short to the
extent OF approximately $4,000. Mr..
Phelan says that he is not TO blame,
that the books have always been in
bad shape and that no audit was made
Of them for at least seven years that
he knew of. The error, or loss, which
ever II il might have happened in
any one OF several administrations.
Such conduct of public office, sooner
or later leads TO trouble and expense
for the tax payers. The books were
always open 10 the public to be sure.
They we're subject TO audit any time.
But they were not audited. Finally a
new administration took hold and de-
cided hat an audit should be made.
The result was that a loss of several
thousand dollars was suffered by the
tax payers.
In this cast would II not have been
good business and practical economy
10 have audited the city's books BIZ
annually? Then II there was a loss,
the guilty parties could have been held
responsible, and the taxpayers would
at least have had ordinary protection.
Az IL is, there Is probably not a fair
minded man In the state that would
hold Mr.. Phelan responsible for such
a h~aphazard system of bookkeeping.
A frequent audit Is necessary In the
case of every tax district and munich
pality, for the protection of office
holders as well as taxpayers. Neglect
in every case, opens the way for ser
ious embarrassment and actual misap-
preparation of funds.
