Boston.-A story of great love, of
career of hard battles in the ring, and
of a winning fight against tuberculosis
came to light at Harvard university a
few days ago when Frederick kid
Wedge, forty-one years old, of Arizona
registered in the Harvard graduate
school of education, where he is to

Fifteen years ago the name of kid"
Wedge was one to be feared in the
timber lands of the Middle West. For
years he had fought in the rings of
that region. At twenty he left the

Texas Town Grows From Sleepy
Place of 5000 to 10000 In

OIL BOOM is RESPONSIBLE
Hundreds Are Forced to Sleep Out
Doors and There Is but Ono
Bathhouse in the Place
Prices Are High.

Mexia, Texas-MeXia, which has
the sending of state troops here to
put an end to outlawry. the sale of
Illicit booze and restore order, Is
typical mushroom city.
Overnight tented city arose. From
an apparently sleepy Attle town Of
5000 population in October, 1921,
where old settlers farmed for a living
and eked out a bare existence from
their lands to bustling city of 3d.
900 people, and all in few months
this is the recent record of Mexia, an
old-time Texas town, which is feel
ing the effects of one of the numer-
Gus oil developments in the South
west.
The population now consists of an
assortment of oil field followers and
thousands of men and women seeking
employment. Consequently because
of the exhorbitant prices charged for
a room, if one were lucky enough to
secure one, hundreds of men, favored
by the long continued mild winter, are
sleeping on the grass along railroad
tracks, public parking places and, in
fact, anywhere they can.
Beds in Tents Costly.
Overnight a bed in a tent marked
"A place to flop" scared from 80 cents
a night to So. A night in a crude
plank structure where one didn't
know his bed-fellow or the hundreds
of others in the single room cost So.
Rail traffic jumped hundreds of per
cent. There are two trunk lines, the
Houston & Texas Central and the
through here, and passenger traffic is
very heavy, while freight trains are
frequently seen running three abreast,
so heavy is the demand for oil ma
chinery. One road is said to have spent
$500, 1000 in enlarging it's facilities.
The water situation is not alto
gether what could be desired. Getting
a bath here is quite an experience, if
indeed not task. The old saying,
''If you want to do something big
wash an elephant" certainly has found
parallel in Mexia.
But One Bathhouse.
This luxury may be found. outside
the woodland creeks, only in a down
town barber shop. The bathhouse Is
a stall in -fioored, planked-in
inclosure. The plain, pine planks are
slippery, but the proprietors of the
house have found that it Is not neces-
fsary to maintain first-aid kits because

six years he fought 6S battles and won
65 of them.
Romance Entered Life.
Then, when he was twenty-siX, came
his romance. He met the daughter of
a Wisconsin doctor. She was a gradu-
ate of Nebraska college, and far re-
moved from Wedges station in life,
but they were married. Then he
realized the great difference in their
intellectual standards, so he gave up
the ring to secure an education with
the money he had earned as prize
fighter. For six years he attended a
preparatory school, where he did II
years of elementary work to prepare
for college.
He entered the University of Ne
braska, but the war interrupted his
work. He went to Camp Grant as a
boxing instructor, and there another
obstacle appeared. The doctors pro-
nounced him an incurable victim of
tuberculosis, with but six months to
live. He went to Ell Paso, Tex, to be-
gin a different battle, and in a year
he was a well man.

BLINDNESS ECREASES IN U. S.

Figures.

Washington, d. C.-The number of
blind persons in the United States de-
creased from 57,272 in 1910 to 52,617
in 1920, according to figures for the
last census announced by the census
bureau. The decrease was attributed
in part to advanced methods for treat
ment in blindness and also TO e'iuca-
