MORE THAN YOU CAN CHEW.

You often wonder where to draw the line on
how much you undertake. Should YOU take on every
thing you are asked to do? Or should YOU learn

JUST FOLKS
GETTING HOME.
BY EDGAR A. GUEST

GETTING HOME.
Getting home is best, I say
Though it's fun TO go away,
And there's pleasure in a trip
Overland or on a ship,
Taking you 10 splendors new,
After all the journeys through,
Makes no difference where you
roam.
There's no thrill like getting home.
Maybe with a humping heart
You look forward TO the start,
And you think you'n never get
Quite enough of travel, yet
After you have jorneyed far
Where the nations wonders are,
Soon yOu'll find you hunger for
All the folks at home once more.
You may laugh and sing and shout
As YOU wander. in and out,
Meeting new friends everywhere,
Seeing new glories here and there,
But these joys at last will pail
And you'll wish above II al
For that happiest moment when
You1l be starting home again.
Trips are glorious things TO take,
Journeys everyone should make.
There are places good 10 be.
Much the eye OF man should see,
But no matter where you 90.
This you'll sure come 70 know
Best thing trains can do is when
They set you back home again.

Don't snari at the fellow who walks

While the trolleye meanders to

Atlantic City, N. J., June 28.-
Yesterday was another day of conf
parative idleness. Probably it was
good thing l didn't do any boxing
especially in the morning. A fog
came in from the sea which was SO
thick that one could hardly see his
hand before his face. What a great
mess a fellow would have made
trying to box another fellow with
that fog hanging around.
A brief run on the road, then
breakfast, then horseback ride
with Mayor Edward Bader made
up the main part of the days pro-
gram. Neither in the leg sprint
nor the pony jaunt, did we show
any speed. 1t would have been
dangerous because the fog hung so
thickly over the city and especially
so around my camp which is partly
surrounded by water.
Just what sort of work I'll do
Tuesday is something I haven't de-
cided upon as yet. 1t perhaps will
be just a little light boxing because
Jack Kearns feels that I'm just
about on edge now and he doesn't
want to have ME turn it with any
more fast workings. But I'll sure

day and Wednesday. That will con-
elude the program.

and Taylor O'Brien of Sioux City.

and training hard.
There will be other interesting
preliminaries. The fight will take
place in the Liederkranz auditorium,
the preliminaries beginning at 8
o'clock and the main event at 9

all members of the camp are guying
Georges because of his almost bald

that the tall young man whose hair
was hardly discernible was none
other than the challenger himself,

were" Georges threw back his
shoulders and laughed.
After the morning road work
rest was prescribed for the French
man. He was said to be- working
secretly before noon with Charles
Ledoux, the French bantamweight
champion. but this report was not

year and half this fight has been
in my mind. For nearly nine months
it has been a certainty. For six
long and tough weeks I've worked to
fit myself for it. My whole ener-

All these stories I hear about how

Sullivan and Fitz wasn't figured to
have chance with Gentleman Jim.
Then came the Fitzsimmons battle
with Jeffries. Even Fitz laughed
about that. 1t was going to be
soft for him--oh, my, how soft it
was going to be. And Jeff knocked
out Fitz.
They may look soft to somebody
else, but not to me. Carpenter may
be over-rated, as some people say,
and he may be the toughest foeman

such, anyway. And when climb
through the ropes on July 2 I'll
fight him as if he were greater

Dempsey Within
48 Hours of End
OF His Training
Champion Is Scheduled to Do
His Last Boxing Before
Titular Battle Today and
Wednesday.

Atlantic City, N. J., June o.
Jack Dempsey today is within 4S
hours of the end of his training
grind. The champion is scheduled
to do his last boxing in public this
afternoon and tomorrow.
Dempsey and his handlers had no
explanation to offer today for the
secret workout late yesterday after
noon when he toiled for S. minutes
at top speed with only three spec
tators watching him. Dempsey
worked out in the stuffy old hangar
a quarter of mile back of his camp
after announcement was made that
he would take a day off.
Wanted Workout.
Jack simply felt he wanted to
work and he decided to do it on a
minutes notice." said Teddy Hayes,
trainer of the champion.
1--WE thought he was going to loaf
all day. But after he took a nap
he ordered the sparring partners in
to their clothes and went after
them"
Some noted trainers and athletes
have been rather strong in their
criticism of the champion. They be-
lieve, they say, that Dempsey was
too finely drawn, that he had over
trained and was on the verge of 60
