 No one else could possibly write this volume. It fills a gap in all the Roosevelt literature, and is to be com pared only with Theodore Roose- Velts Letters to His Children in per sonal appeal.
 It is the record of a happy child hood lived with wonderful parents. with the best associations of cultivated people. with outdoor life and recrea- ton, and, what so seldom goes with that, an intense interest in books and reading. The literary background of the Roosevelt children is always present-not something acquired with difficulty but lived every day

BOXING MECCA

Sydney is the New York of Aus
tralia so lar as boxing goes,
The big doe is there for the good
fighters.
Daily stream of letter from for
eign boxers flows into the Australian
city. They want their cut of the
coin that is being so generously dis
pensed there.
True, there are no half-million dol
lar purses.
Fans are critical, though. A fight
er must show something in order to
draw.
The best liked fellow on Sydney
cards is Billy Shade, the San Fran
cisco ELECTROMAGNETIC. Shade car
ries punch. That's what they like.
So far he has lost but one contest
during his invasion, and that was on
a foul after he looked like a million
dollar bet to win.
We predict Shade can make lot
of money back home here when he
has gotten his velvet abroad.
