A REAL PEssIMIsT

The Censor thinks it has finally dis
covered the nth degree of pessimism.
A few days ago two farmers were
talking together on Viroqua's streets.
One was beaming with joy over the
way the crops have overcome the
handicap Of the late spring, and said
that he had never seen the crops grow
so rapidly. The other in a dismal
graveyard tone of voice said, Eyes,
that's true, but think how hard it is
on the ground"

The very latest type of an up-to- date Funeral Home'' has been es- tabHshed at 541 Fairfield avenue by the new undertaking firm of McKeon, Brown and Adley, Inc. The most striking feature of the place is the soft, homelike atmosphere which the visitor feels upon entering, instead of the hard commercial appearance which the old style undertaking par 1ors presented.
 The members of the firm have striven to make the home the best of it's kind in the city and in the opinion of numerous people who have already inspected the house, they have succeeded.
 In the basement are the morgue and embalming rooms while on the main floor are spacious front and back parlors, a large show room for caSkets, and the trimming room. A new innovation is the smoking room

Insanity Increase
 Traced to Poverty
Starvation Following Depression Jumps Number of Those
 Committed.

New York, Jan. I3-The age-o1d question, Am I my brothers keep err" is answered by report of the state charities aid association, which says hard times cause insanity
 More persons were sent to insane asylums in this state last year than in any previous year. At the end of 1921, patients in the B state hos pitals for the insane numbered 3o,z36, an increase of HAS over 1920. This is 6,642 more than the hospitals can accommodate
 One of the major causes for this condition is unemployment and dis tress, due to economic conditions"
 A disregard for disabled veterans of the world war has filled the in sane hospitals with these soldiers. The report says these soldiers were suffering from shell shock, but their troubles have increased during the year
 The report indicates one of the costs society must pay for it's disre- gard of bad economic conditions.

HOLY CROSS STARS
 TO JOIN MAJORS
Gagnon and Mcguire Said to Be
 Headed for Giants.

Holy Cross may supply major league baseball with two more star athletes net summer as it is declared that Fred die Mcguire, star second baseman, and Harold Chick Gagnon, noted short stop of the Purple squad, are about ready to sign contracts which are to be offered them by the Giants.
 Gagnon has had several offers from big league teams, Washington and Pitts burgh being particularly anxious to ac quire him. It is likely that he will choose New York because of the fact that Mcguire IS expected to cast his lot in that direction.
 Jesse Burkett, now on John McGraw's S coaching staff, brought out Mcguire when he was coaching Holy Cross, and last summer exacted a promise from him that he would sign with the Giants when he decided to enter professional baseball. Burkett believes Mcguire to be better prospect than was Joe Dugan when he first joined the Athletics.
 Gagnon, a star football and basketball player as well as diamond lun1inary about big league baseball, although he isn't altogether sure yet what he will do has intimated that his mind is about made up to take a fling at the majors.
 Last year he hit better than 300 un- der Coach Jack Barry's tutelage and covered the short field in a sensational manner. He also was a member of Barry's Salem team during the summer months He was noted as a murderer" of fast ball pitching although not as strong against curves.
 It seems an assured fact that those who know the pair that Gagnon will fol- low wherever Mcguire goes i'll league baseball. Mcguire stated that he will not take up the subject until he is grad uated in June.
 McGraw already has had three Holy Cross men on his team. Bill Ryan, Ar mold Statz and Chick Bowen. Ryan is the only survivor at present, although 1t seems safe to say that the Little Napoleon" would like to have Statz co1n- ing back to him instead of to the Cubs in the spring.

TENNIS CHAMP TO
 RETURN TO GAME
Mile. Leng1en's Health Improving so She Can Enter English
 Tourney.

The following article, taken from recent issue of the London West1nin- ster Gazette, gives Mile. Suzanne Lerglen's tennis plans for next year:
 What is to be the future of Suz- anne Lenglen? That is the question which the whole lawn tennis world IS discussing today. Now that the French Lawn Tennis Federation has exonerated the lady champion from blame in regard to her American tour, will she immediately return to active competitive play? Many have thought she will.
 The Westminster Gazette can now authoritatively answer these ques- toins. "I am still in the hands of the doctors," writes Mile. Lenglen to the lawn tennis correspondent of this journal. "All the doctors agree that I cannot play till at least March or April.
 "I have a heart disturbance which needs a long rest; no exercise as vio- lent as tennis. Before going over to America I had whooping cough. It still troubles me"
 The fact that the lady champion in tends to play at Wimbledon next summer will be welcomed by the gen. eral public.
 q will be very glad to tell you, she writes, "that l am looking for ward to play at Wimbledon. l hope by that time I will be all right. But 1 will not be able to play in the Riviera tournament this season, be- cause 1 have to start again very slow 1y-undcr a doctors control "I have hypertrophy of the heart I am very upset about not playing for 50 long; but l would not have strength enough to do so even if was allowed"
 l Mile Lenglen left Paris last Satur- day for Nice, where she will spend | the winter.

GRIFFITH LABELS
 DUNN AS JUDAS,
 BALL FANS LAUGH
Baltimore Manager Evidently Has Goat" of Washington Magnate,
 Tightly Roped.

Clarke Grifith's denunciation of Jack Dunn, i'll which the Washington clubs president called Dunn a mod ern Judas IsCariot because of his stand on the draft question and added that Dunn did not have a player on his Baltimore Orioles who was worth $5,ooo brought only hearty laugh in Baltimore baseball circles.
 It was generally agreed that Grif- filth had cause to be pecved at Dunn. Dunn gave Griffith what appears to be rather a bad trimming some six years ago although Griffith went into the transaction with his eyes open. The result has caused a chuckle in Balti- more baseball circles whenever any thought has been passed upon it.
 Dunn had fashy shortstop whose name was Sam Crane. He could field brilliantly, but it developed he could not hit. The shortstop looked good to Griffith and he took him from Dunn, giving in exchange Jack Bent icy, IAlN d w lIlld1lIS ollu LII IlN1 1oc1A Der, together with little cash.
 Crane did not make good with Washington. Barber played one year with the Orioles and then Dunn sold him to the Chicago White Sox for $I2, ,ooo and Merwin Jacobson.
 Thus for Crane, who did not make good with Washington, Dunn re- ceived more than $I2,ooo in cash counting the coin gift paid him, a catcher who afterward went into the major leagues again in Williams, and his two big stars of today, Bentley and Jacobson, for whom 1t is report ed Dunn can obtain $75,ooo if he wants to dispose of them.
 It looks to Baltimore fans as though Gritf's rawlings are due moro to the effect of the music upon his ears as 1t accompanies the offers fol
 Bentley, whom he passed up, and fol Jacobson, for whose presence on the Orioles, he is indirectly responsible through a Barber gift.
 A few Baltimore students of tho game who are inclined to be on un
 kind terms with Grif's famous deal O. six years ago with the Orioles as tht I biggest bone" of modern baseball
 history, with Baltimore in the posi-
 ton where the laugh can be enjoyed. This trade more than anything i> l re0arded as reSDOnSib1e for Ra1ti l more's three pennants.

LEONARD HASN'T MUCH TO FEAR IN
 PRESENT BUNCH
Lightweight Champion Training for Another Campaign With
 Few Opponents.

Lightweight Champion Benny Leonard is i'll training for another campaign in the ring, but it looks as though good opponents for him will be decidedly scarce. Neither Rocky Kansas nor Lew Tendler, who met i'll New Y 1orl recently in a bout that was supposed to be for the purpose of providing an opponent for the cham pion, showed anything to give Leon- ard cause for alarm.
 Kansas never was taken seriously, but if Tender had defeated him de cisively there would have been a countrywide demand for Leonard to meet the Philadelphian in a cham pionship match. The size of the crowd that attended the bout showed that the fans were interested in Tenders match with Leonard would have been a tremendous attraction. In that case there is no doubt that Leonard would not have allowed his dislike for Tendlcr to interfere with the oppor- tunity to rake i'll fortune.
 Ii is evident that Tender is not as good as he was a year or so ago. At the persent time he is just a fair light weight without a particularly brilliant future before him. At that time he was almost as great an attraction as Leonard himself, and he could make plenty of money without running the risk of being knocked out by the champion. Even a big losers end and the off chance of capturing the title were not worth the risk. But now ii is apparent that Tender made a big mistake. He has lost all his prestige and the shot at the title as we'll.
 Tendler has nothing that indicates he would have the ghost of a chance with Leonard. He has lost his wallop and he Is not a great boxer although he is decidedly more clever than the average southpaw. But Tendler is easy to hit and he cannot withstand much punishment. He has very ten der skin that shows the mark of every blow, no matter how light, and he seldom goes through bout without bleeding in several places.
 As far as Kansas is concerned, he would have even less chance with Leonard. Tendler at least has plenty of speed, but Kansas has nothing but a rugged physique. That he received the verdict over Tender does not prove anything. Tender, with all his faults, showed himself to possess

Mike Gibbons pugilistic star was in the ascendancy again as the result of his victory over Mike O'Dowd in a Io-round, no decision bout recently.

PENN STATE TURNS
 DOWN HARVARD
Schedule Prevents Game With Grim son Much to Mutual
 Regret.

In accepting the October 28 date for gridiron contest against Syra- Cuse next season, Penn State turned down an offer from Harvard for the same date. The game with Syracuse will be part of three-ycar agree mcnt, whereby Penn State will play at Syracuse in 1923. Arrangements for the 1924 contest still are pending. This tendency on the part of colleges to arrange for contests on two and three-year agreements probably will be generally followed in the not dis tant future.
 Incidentally, the feeling between Harvard and Penn State is most friendly, as reflected by an excerpt from a recent telegram sent Harvard by Neil w. Fleming, graduate man ager of the State college institution. After explaining that Penn State had been unable to shift it's schedule in order to accept Harvard's offer, MT. Fleming wired: "We deeply regret our schedule IS such that we cannot accept your kind invitation We had all looked forward to your game with a great deal of pleasure This is es- pecially true of MT. Bezdek, the team and the whole college. We sincerely hope that we have the opportunity again to play Harvard and we assure you that every effort will be made then to shape our plans accordingly" :"
