Mr.. Perry had been an invalid

his return from the battlefields
of France. In May 1917, he

on he was a motorcycle rider,
delivering messages and acting
as French interpreter for his
Company. During his younger
years he acted as a clerk here
in the Taylor drug store after
which he took up the occupa-
ton of trouble-man with the
Cumberland Company at Hous-
ton, where he remained until
he enlisted with the Govern
ment. Upon his honorable dis
charge he became afflicted with
heart trouble from which he
continued to grow worse until
life became extinct.
Besides his grief-stricken pa
rents, he leaves to mourn him,

MADE DEMPSEY WORK.
CBy Associated Press),


The only boxer that ever got real
good DAYS work out of Jack Dempsey
was Bill Brennan. Usually Jack
knocks an opponent out in the first
two or three rounds and collects his
days wages. But somehow or other
Bill is one of those fellows who can't
get to sleep right away. Once it took
six rounds for Dempsey to quiet his
rer' med awake twice that long.
This second occasion was last De-
cember at Madison Square Garden.
Brennan was sure feeling fine that
night He acted as though he had
Just taken shower under the Foun-
tain Of Youth and instead of sticking
around wondering which way to dodge
next, he stepped up and showed the
champion all his stuff.
Some of it didn't seem 10 sit very
we'll with the king of fighters. Early
in the bout Brennan handed him a wal
lop that for moment seemed to daze
the head that wore the crown. A little
later on his glove slashed Dempseys
mouth and after while other cor
puscles began to take the air in the
vicilMy of the champions ear.
The experts said Brennan carried
the fight to Dempsey for ten rounds.
Some skeptics believed the champion
tarried that long to give the movie
fans a treat. Other people whispered
that the real low down on the thing
was that Dempsey had not trained
hard for the scrap and was not in
good condition. The. fact remained
that none of his cayeman punches
were in evidence during the aerly part
of the fight.
He assembled one of these. wallops
in his left arm during the 18th round
and let it loose upon Brennan, square
ly amidship. The big challenger's body
assumed the posture of half-opened
pocketknifc, his head drapped almost
to his knees. Fighting hard against
the approaching end, ne spread out mis-
legs and remained up. While swaying
in this position Brennan received
sound smash to the jaw and fell to

Nickerson and Director Brockman ex-
pressed The firm belief that New River
would catch and carry off the entire
flood and leave lands il the United
States absolutely safe from the flood
and from a shortage of water.
One Of the biggest mistakes that the
Imperial Irrigation District has coun-
tenanced, according to Messrs. Nicker-
son and Brockman is that of continu-
ing to build dirt lcvces and the spend
ing Of large sums Of money on them
for FLOOD protection from years to
year, when one good, solid rock levee,
would hold back the flood waters for
many yCars to come and would per-
manently do away with the annual
fear of flood damaging American
lands or causing a water shortage.
Both are agreed that the only money
that should be, spent IN the future by
the irrigation district for levec work
should be for permanent rock levec

adequate protection for even sus-
tanned flood Of great volume or u big

Sentimental Tommy" is a story Of
such quaint, sympathetic appeal that
to accurately describe it is difficult,
Audiences best tell the merit Of the
production and it is record that the
film broke all records during six
weeks showing at the Criterion, New
York; repeated this success in Boston,
Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington,
Cleveland, Minneapolis, Indianapolis
St Louis and other leading metropoli
The producers underestimate the apI
peal Of Sentimental Tommy" when il
was given to the public, but the public
soon expressed its opinion IF the pro-
duction. Critics have acclaimed it the
"eiqhth wonder Of the world"
Sentimental Tommy" is better than
male or Female" or What Every
Woman Knows" and other Barrie
plays. 1t is d picture for all of the
family, for the most prejudiced op-
