Bob Martin lost sight of the heavy weight title for while. But he's back again and sees the goal ahead as plainly as ever.
 This is the first true story of Mar tins decline in the heavyweight di- vision. There was a time when he was considered the logical man to meet Jack Dempsey-the one man who had a chance to down the Utah Mauler. Then, after beating Frank Moran so decisively, Martin took on Fay Keiser, a mediocre light heavy weight of Cumberland, Md, and re- ceived as neat a licking as any pugil- ist ever stood up under.
 It was noticed on that night, Sept 5, 1921, in Baltimore, that Martins chin was pointed upward and Keiser hit him "on the button again and again. Martin showed one thing

y presented the playground equip
ment to the school in behalf of the

first by taking care of it, and second
by being unselfish in the use of it.
Special mention was made of thosewno

ly thus making the Playground equip
ment possible.
IN this group were included Mrs.
Chas Anderson and hen committee,
that of the playground; Mrs. r. A.
Phillips and those who worked with
her in getting up the carnival; thos'
teachers who took part in the 'Old
Maids Convention'' and all otn2r
members Of that clever cast; and Mr..
r. A. Phillips, who has been particu-
larly generous in dealing with the
playground committee.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Hugg1ns
remarks, DR.. Anderson arose and al
;dcd the superintendent S name to taosc
deserving especial praise for work
done toward procuring and setting up
the play round equipment.

sleepy, melancholy, unattractive, pro

have ample money to buy those ar
tjcles. A tide Of prosperity is
flowing through the country.
There is not sufficient room in the
capital for the thousands Of Slavs who
want to come here from the united

buildings are under construction, the
streets aIc being repaved, parks, pul-
lie squares anil an esplanade arc

GERMAN EXPORT FIRMS
SEEKING ENTRY INT0
UNITED STATES
{Bu Associated Press.}

Berlin, Jan. 23-German export
firms which before the war maintain
ed branch offices in the United States
now are seeking to establish agencies
with reliable houses there, to avoid the
cost of opening and maintaining their
own establishments. A few German
firms already have succeeded in max
ing satisfactory connections in this
manner, and the Americans are accept
ing and forwarding orders for German
goods.
While American imports to Germany
are negligible, the German export
trade to America is reported gradually
improving, despite the fluctuating
value Of the mark which prevents 1nc
making of long time contracts. The
mojoritv Of the exports bought by the
Americans on a cash basis, although
verbal contracts are common for ru-
ture deliveries, prices hoover being
quoted in foreign exchanges.
+, Virtually ALL German exporters now
quote prices III the monies of the coun-
tries to which they sell. It is under
stood this policy has been adopted at
the suggestion Of the government, TOT
the checks eventually are deposited in
the Reichsbank, which is the forward
! ing agency for the government in tn:
payment of war indemnities, which
must be made in foreign exchange
This policy has created peculia'
attitude on the part Of the German
business man, whose profits often de
.ron a deprecated currency il
his own country. He is therero
loath to see the mark rise in value
for his net proceeds would be proper
tionatelv reduced.
Ii, spite Of wage increases and aig:
cost Of rsw materials. German factor
les working for the export trade ar
reported to have been running at ful
capacity for the last three months
with orders ahead which it will TAX
