On February 20, 1912, Johnny
Kilbane won the featherweight title

Kilbane has held the title ever
since, and on the twenty-second of
this month celebrated the tenth
anniversary of lifting the crown. No
other fighter under the Marquis of

a record.
A yea after winning the title
from Abe Attell, Kilbane defended
it against Johnny Dundee. The bout

was declared a draw by Referee

If he had just left the gears in

nothing to 1t. What happened finally

Our Sunday Sermonette.

There are few times in driving a
car when it pays to step on the ac-
celerator and spare the brakes. One
Of these Is when two tracks are
parked along the roadway at night.
The motorist who slows up to see
what's the matter is quite likely to
find himself looking into the muzzle
Of forty-four.
Another case where the accelerator
is useful is when the sympathetic driver
sees a form laid out on the road be-
side a car, concludes that there has
been a terrible accident and feels
that he ought to stop to see what's
wrong and offer what assistance he
Is able to. But If he obeys that i'm
pulse to speed up he'll save himself
the annoyance of a hold-up.
Putting dummies along the road
at night to play upon the sympathy
of kindhearted motorists is a modern
trick of the hold-up man. the police
officials would have us know. One
has to use d lot of discretion about
stopping along the road at night.
Usually the best decision is to give
'er the gas.
