day, Nike came in for a little chat
about things having to do with box
ing and he was asked if he had by
any chance broken with Dick Chr.

Mike merely grinned. He explained
that he had received any number of
letters from someone in Tulsa in
wiling him to come down to The oil
country but he had never paid aay
attention to them. The idea of
breaking with Curley, who in three
Or four battles has brought him
more than he earned in all previous
bouts of his career, struck Mike as
highly humorous.
Mike is a great favorite in and
around Chicago. Curley proved he

no trouble in keeping the Rock Is

SCHOOL STUDENTS
 STUDY FORDSON

Ed Rudolph, in speaking of the growing tendency to study tractor design in the schools of the country, pointed to the fact that the high school students in the manual train ing department of the Lewiston, Montana, Public Schools carried away the first prize at the Montana State Fair this year.
 The display consisted of cut away Ford Model T. Chassis run by an electric motor. This model is used in the regular classes at the school and was made entirely by the students. The Ford car is used as a basis for all the work done in this department and many fine mechanics have been turned out by the instruc- tor. c. E. Musgrove.
 The Fergus Motor Company. the Ford dealer at Lewistown, which put on the big Fordson Caravan this last summer, and which a year ago gained much publicity by delivering Fordson parts by airplane, works with the public schools in this department and furnish cars, parts, etc, for the use of the students. The company also send its shop foreman and tractor ex- Dert to the school to help educate tht students in the care of both the cal and the tractor.
 This year the Fordson will be uset in the class room and 1t will bt knocked down and assembled by al the students. During the Farmers Short Course in the winter the care of the Ford car and Fordson trac- tor will be taught to the farmers who attend.

These figures would indicate that the number of Fords stolen is in almost direct ratio to tie number of Fords sold, when compared with the total number of other cars stolen and sold.
 Insurance companies in raising their rates have tried to show that there are a greater percentage of Ford cars stolen those of other makes, but the police figures show that the companies contention is more or less without foundation.
