 LEWIS TO MEET CARPENTER.

BItIGHTON, England, Feb. l7.-Ted tl<id) Lewis, British welterweight pugilist, knocked out Tom Gunner, the British middleweight, in the first round of their hout here tonight. As Gunner was overweight, no question of championship was involved.
 Georges Carpentier. the European heavyweight champion, was present at the match, and afterward it was definitely stated that he would meet Lewis in a bout. probably in April.

to be convinced Of its wisdom and justice.
II should surprise no ono if II vote or n

He distrusted reformcrs as any professional

Doubtless he has lived to learn. And

NIHlLE no obligation rests upon the

This is nm ambitious conception. entail
ing generous expenditure of funds and nm

to assume that full Endorsement Of the

Why Not q Club Survey?

we have had surveys of every Sort
school surveys, crime surveys and too many
OF the members of the various clubs! If

very interesting things would be revealed by
such survey. The great commercial
agencies give financial ratings; why not an

are committed by a class of persons who
somehow or other, are admitted to mem
bership in the best clubs and who are found
in other high positions; in other words, in
many cases. club membership is only a mask
and even the Church itself has been used
not infrequcntly for the same purpose.
''To my mind, the fake promoter and the
lake investment house do the greatest
amount of harm in community. Many of
the members Of this fraternity work their
traffic largely through membership in the

give the community another reservoir to tan
for movements which are sound in every
respect and which are badly in need Of funds
to carry on the work Of mercy in which
thcy are engaged.
II am confident that in the course or

worked out. and that it will be of incstimo.
