and Carpenter
Rise Early; Both Express
Confidence Of Winning

MANHASSETT, N. Y. July 2:-
1--WE had a good sleep and feel fine"
This was Georges Carpenters
smiling comment to an Associated
Press representative who kept an
early vigil at the camp, as he came
of the house at 7:45 this morn
ing.
Carpenter arose at $50. INDUCED
in fifteen minutes of setting-up ex-
ercises ito open his eyes" as his
trainer expressed it, and ate a light
breakfast at Z o'clock.
He lounged around the house un-
til 7:45 when, attired in an old
flannel shirt, flannel trousers, cap
and worn shoes, he emerged for
light exercise along the road. Sur
prised to find newspapermen waiting
for him the challenger with a smile
on his face remarked: you're up
early; haven't you been to bed all
night?"
Accompanied by his trainer, Gus
Wilson, his friend, Pierre Mallet,
and his Belgian police dogs Carpen-
tier started for a hike along the road
near his camp. He seemed to pre-
sem the natural abandon of a school
boy. He had gone but a few steps
when he pulled up his trousers and
executed a Jig for the e~diication of
his companions and the newspaper
men.
Doesn't seem worried, does he?"
remarked Wilson.
Carpenter kept up a constant
stream of light conversation, making
no reference to the supreme test to
which he will be put this afternoon.
Manager Descamps had mapped
out the day to coincide with the
training schedule the challenger has
followed for six weeks. Luncheon
was scheduled for 1880 o'clock,
then the motors were to take the
party to Fort Washington on Man
hassett bay to board the sixty-ive-
foot power yacht, Lone Star. One
bunk was fitted up for Georges and
he planned to sleep an hour while
the craft sped down the sound to a
Jersey City dock. There a closed
car and a special guard of six motor
cycle policemen awaited the party.
Strict orders were given to keep
everybody out OF the dressing room
until he starts for the ring.

JERSEY CITY, July 2.-"Never
felt better in my life" remarked
Jack Dempsey as Sc sat down to q
light breakfast in a private home
here, where he had spent the night.
The champion slept without inter-
ruption from 10 until Z this morning
and awoke in a happy frame OF
mind. Teddy Hayes his trainer, who
occupied an adjoining room was still
asleep and Jack amused himself by
tickling his trainers nose.
Dempsey's breakfast consisted OF
two boiled eggs, toast and a pot OF
tea.
Accompanied by Hayes he started
out for a walk but such a crowd fol-
lowed he was forced to return to the
house.
Although his whereabouts was
supposed to be secret the news
of his whereabouts got out before
he had been in town more than a
few hours and fight fans were on
constant patrol along the street in
which he was housed. A large per-
centage of women are among h
spectators, while the boys were well
represented.
After returning from his walk tho
champion amused himself by play

hearted member of the party and
didn't show a single trace of anxiety
as he actually would be expected to.

ly will be the supreme ring test OF
his life.
Dempsey is going to put on a big
party at the Belmont tonight to
celebrate the ending of his long
training grind and his expected vic-
tory over Georges Carpenter provid-
ed his massive jaws come out of the
battle in good working order.
at all depends on how the old jaw
is" Dempsey said when asked about
after the fight plans. He grinned
broadly and pressed the jaw the
challenger is expected to attack.
Then to show how he felt about his
ability to stage a knockout punch,
he fastened to ask If reservations
for the big party had been made.
His guests will include his two
brothers, Ernest and Danny. Mayor
d. Bader, Of Atlantic City, Manager
Kearns, Trainer Hayes, and other
members of the squad.
The champion arrived here late
yesterday and with his party was
conducted by Mayor Hague to the
home Of a Jersey City millionaire
to spend the hours before the bat
tie.
Dempsey appeared care-free as a
school boy and retired shortly after
$50. His handlers gave orders that
he be not disturbed until he awoke.
Mrs. May Brown, of Chicago, a
friend of Dempsey's and his former
landlady in the days that preceded
his rise in the pugilistic days arrived
with 2 pairs of handmade white silk
trunks, one pair which he selected
to wear. Mrs. Browns idea of the
| things in belt didn't coincide with
| Dempsey and he had her remodel
the red, white and blue belt she
made.
Moderate setting up exercises. a
ard game and possibly a short quiet
walk were on the program to occu-
py the hours this morning. The
champion plans to leave by motor
for the arena at about 2 o'clock. ar

At the Strand


When 1.-THE Heart Of Maryland"
Vitagraph's special production of the
famous stage success written ana
produced twenty-five years ago by
David Belasco, is shown at the Strand
Theatre on Monday, theatre goers
will see Is fine a cast as Mr.. Belasco
presented in the original stage pro-
duction. Mrs. Carter was just begin
ming her highly successful stage ca
reer, and Mr.. Belasco produced 1.-THE
Heart of Maryland" in a most lavish
manner with the best cast o~btainable.
AS a screen play Vitagraph has even
exceeded Mr.. Be1asco in the magni-
tude of its production. The screen
offers possibilities that the stage cam
not.
In vitagraph's screen presentation
Of THE Heart of Maryland" Gather
inc Calvert, famous on the stage as
well as the screen. has the role orig
mated by Mrs. Carter. Her leading
man Is Crane Wilbur, who plays the
role originated by the late Maurice
Barrymore, father Of Ethel, John
and Lionel, and later played by the
late Herbert Kelcey, who starred SO
long with his wife, Efie Shannon.
The role played by John e. Kellered
on the stage is played by Felix
Krembs on the screen. Cyril Scott
and later Grant Mitchell, both now
we'll known stars, appeared as Bob
Telfair. This role is now assumed by
Ben Lyon. The unfortunate Lloyd
Calvert was played by Edward j.
Morgan. the original Ben Hur and
later an acknowledged star. William
Collier, Jr.. son of the famous Gomez
dian, plays the role in the Vitagraph
production. Tn fact, taking the casts
in both original stage production and
V~itagraph's screen presentation OF
.The Heart Of Maryland" there Is
little difference in merit. Both were
as nearly perfect as possible.

Today and Monday at the Crescent
The last performance Of the great
stage play, Bought and Paid For"
takes place tonight at the Crescent
theatre. This great play during the
past two days has been wonderfully
portrayed by the Lois Howell Play
ers, a stock company that Is meeting
with great success at the Crescent.

best stage plays on the last three
days of each week, the first three
days the usual motion picture pro-
gram is given.
Next Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day Miss Howell and her players
will present the play, Naughty
Wives" that created such a sensa-
ton in New York City. This is a
play that is far above the Ordinary
and one which Miss Howell and her
company can do full justice. Those
who have seen Miss Howell in
Bought and Paid For" are loud in
their praise Of her acting and the
acting of every member of the COM
pany. Without doubt Miss Howelrs
company is one of the best that has
ever played in this CITY,.
Civilization is a veneer at the best.
There are moments of madness
when honor, friendship and love are
ywept aside, and quite civilized peo-
pie. become creatures of blind i'm
pulse and passion. 1t was such a
moment that caught a woman starv-
ing for romance and a man infatuat-
ed with her beauty. In the warm
moonlight of a midsummer mid
night, they forgot that they were
married-to another man and an
other wonan-and in each others
All Of which goes to show why
William De Mile called his latest
and greatest picture midsummer
Madness and why screen fans who
see 1t are getting the thrill of a life
time. 1t will be on view at the
Crescent theatre next Monday, Tues

Those to whom we build memorials

tiot county is, therefore, asked to
help make the MEMORIAL possible.
When the time comes to inscribe
the names of Alma's sons who en-
tered the service on bronze tablets
that are placed in a building the
people of the county have erected,
would it not be ungracious to insist
that only the college list of service
men be recorded? If Gratiot county
makes the building possible, should
not the names of all her soldier boys
be inscribed therein? Should not
EVERY memorial in Gratiot WHER-
