 Long walks and cards are his di- version. On his one hundredth birth day he walked six miles an dthen sat down to a hearty noon-day meal.

 DEFIANCE, Ohio, Sept. 29-Liv- ing a hundred years or more is q simple matter if you take the word of Francis Ferdinand Mekus. who a few days ago celebrated his 10th birthday.
 When asked his recipe for a rona life he said;
 Quit eating nick-nacks. Eat only solid, substantial food
 Walk when you want to go any where Forget the flivver. Use your legs, and finally
 Play lots of pinochle."
 Sounds simple, but the Defiance .centenarian says that observance of those three rules has seen him saf- ely to a life span far beyond that enjoyed by the average man. and from all appearances he is good for many a year more.
 So far as food goes he is a lover of plain and simplet fare. Pie and

A LOT OF BUM BOXERS

LO UT BUM BONeHS
 There never was a time in the whole history of boxing when the men of that profession were so bad as they are to- day.
 At present there are two really good champions-Jack Dempsey, king of the heavies. and Benny Leonard, king of the 135-pounders. The rest you can toss in the ash can. There are other fairly good title holders, but the writer cant class them with champs of other days
 And when one stops to think of the fortunes they get in purses these days it almost knocks you silly. Think of ham and egg fighter like Johnny Wilson getting $37,5OO to box another ham and egg fighter, Bryan Downey. Wilson's end would be a fortune for the ordinary man. It is more than he could earn in lifetime, yet the cheese champion slaps his way through twelve rounds of boxing and picks up the change
 Tex Rickard isn't to blame The sucker public is the cause of it.
 It's no wonder the fighters laugh. Think of the purses that secondraters got at Madison Square Garden last winter.
 As long as the sucker public falls for the bunk big purses will rule.
 There may be hard times all over America, but when you look over fight crowd and think of what they pay for seats you really cant believe that the wolf is meowing at any door
 Bum fighters are getting rich and they don't have to learn how to box, We haven't a heavyweight except the champion, worth his salt. Name your best heavy, leaving out Dempsey. Will he fight Fulton? No, you bet he won't. They'll all fight Dempsey for the short end, but get pale at the thought of meeting Fulton.
 Where are the light heavies? Joe Wolcott. a welterweight, could lick every one we have. Can you picture any of them in the ring with the Lang. ford of a few years ago? And the heavies-can you see them fighting Sharkey Jeffries, Johnson, Corbett, Jackson or Fitzsimmons few years ago?
 Johnny Wilson, middleweight cham pion! That's a laugh. Try to picture him against Tommy Ryan. Kid Mccoy. Jack Root, Hugo Kelly, Stanley Ketchel. Billy Papke, or even Sailor Burke.
 Pipe the tough birds Leonard has to fight. There isn't one who is a real contender Where would that bunch be with Lavinge, Erne, McFad den, Hawkins, Cans, Nelson or Willie Fitzgerald.
 Feathers? Johnny Kilbano. an old
 
 a feather who stands out as a real con | tender.
 They'd rank high in battles with the old-timers. wouldn't they? Can you see them beating McGovern. Corbett. Griffo. Gardner, Herrers, Attell, or 1 Yanger
 The public doesn't seem to tire. They pay and the bruisers collect.
 Fighters today don't need to learn how to box. Things are coming too easy.
