The More We Tell
the Quicker
We Sell

We have found it to be an absolute fact that
the more we tell about the goods on floors
our sales show proportional increase. This
proves to us that our merchandise and prices meet
with instant approval. Accordingly it is our nat
ural desire to feature herewith every article in
our establishment but lack of space prohibits this.
We suggest that you come in and see us at your
first opportunity. No need of course, to actually
make purchase-all that we want you to do
is to let your own good judgment tell you that our
furniture and prices are right.

TRACK GAMBLERS.
 ARE IN TROUBLE
New Orleans Dist. Atty. Resumes
 Fight Against Bookmakers

New Orleans, La,, Jan. 5.-An Grounds yesterday was the technical arrest of forty-seven bookmakers and their cashiers for operating on the opening day Of the meeting at this course. The warrants for the arrest
 we're issued on information furnished
 rom District Attorney Marr's office, and mark the resumption of the fight that the district attorney made last winter against alleged race track gambling.
 The bookmakers and their assist ants did not know Of the action until after the final race of the day. when they were notified to report to the sherif's office and give bond in the sum of $250.
 Just what the result of this action by the district attorney will have on the remaining forty-seven days of the scheduled fifty-day meeting Is not known, but it is not believed that the racing will be interrupted Last year when similar steps were taken against the bookmakers, an injunction was secured restraining the district attor- ney and state officials from interfer- ing with the laying of wagers, ana under this injunction the bookmakers continued to operate through the re- mainder of the meeting. Many or the suits instituted by the district at torney last year are still awaiting trial in the state courts.

SURPRISE SPRUNG
 l BY LOCAL TEAM
Hardware City Five Downs Bran-
 ford Battery 55 to SS

The Hardware City Five sprung the surprise of the season last night at Branford, when the crack Branford Battery quintet was downed in speedy contest 35 to 33. It was the first defeat Of the season for the team headed by Hap" Harmon, the former Wesleyan star. A crowd that damned the armory witnessed the fray, and 1 time and again. the uproar Of excite ment shook the structure, Teamed with Harmon, was Merritt Taylor, the former New Britain High school star. Another noteworthy in the Branford lineup was Frank McGowan, the hase- ball player who was recently pur- chased by Connie Mack from the New ark club of the International league. Angelo, last year with the New Haven kaceys, was also in the Branford line up.
 First Defeat for Branford
 The Battery team has been traveling along at rapid clip this season, de- feating all opponents with ease. After learning of the walloping the locals sustained at the hands of the All Colegians on Tuesday night, no thought of defeat was entertained by the Branford team or it's followers
 The Hardware City Five passed the ball in manner that was pretty to watch. Tedder Kiduff and Bill Wall thers were all over the floor, and their work stood out in prominence. The defensive play of Larson and Jack Pelletier was excellent. Pelletier held the great Taylor to one field basket in each half. Harmon always a big scor- CT, had his troubles with Chief Lar son, resulting in the ex-collegian reg istering but four goals. Larson in turn dropped in three for the locals. Harry Ginsberg at center, did a good nights job, getting one field goal, and his defensive play proved thorn in the side of the Branford five.
 Good Work by Walthers
 New Britain jumped into the lead at the start, when Walthers scored two neat field goals. The locals were never headed. Kilduff scored field goals and one foul, his work attracting the plaudits of the crowd. In the last two minutes of play, Branford tried the score when McGowan located the draperies, but a fine shot from the side by Bill Walthers cinched the victory for New Britain.
 The summary:

BIC FIGHT VIEWS
 SEEN AT PALACE
Denpsey-Carpentier Pictures
 Show Americans Superiority

It was called the battle Of the goth centpry," hy the army of sport writ CTS In all parts of the world that memorable meeting Of Jack Dempsey worlds champion and Georges Car pcntier, the idol of France, the man who had emerged from the world war hero. A perturbation Of this famous battle was shown for the first time this afternoon at the Palace thcater, and will continue for the next three days at the same popular play house.
 Shows Big Crowd
 While over 90.00O fans crowded into the specially erected arena for the event which was held on July 9, 1920, at Boyle's Thirty Acres in Jcr- scy City, many of the boxing fans who were unable to witness the scrap, are now enjoying every move made by the gladiators during the four rounds that it was in progress. The pictures are the official ones taking of the bout and incidents happening during the training period of both battlcrs,
 Training Camp Pictures
 The picture requires five reels to the program. Carpenter is shown on his landing from lis beloved France, and the wonderful demonstration tcndcred him by his American and French admirers The camera man secured several interesting views Of the Frenchman going through his paces at Manhassott l.. l., with Gus Wilson, Joe Jcannette, the colored heavyweight, who conditioned him for the fray, and Paul Journee, his French handler.
 The training scenes shift to Allan tic City, where Dempsey, the greatest heavyweight in the American ring history went through his sparring and other training stunts. Larry Williams, who bore the brunt of the champions hard knocks, is shown in several workouts with "Black Jack
 The Knockout
 The photo work of the big battle itself is considered one of the best in movie circles. The picture was taken under the direction of G. l.. (TeX) Rckard, the miracle man pro- moter and F. l.. Quimby. It shows every blow clearly, and the superior ity of the American title holder. Much has been said of the one and only chance the frenchman had in the battle, in the second round, when powerful right hand smash, Carps ace in the hole, crashed against Dcmpsey's jaw. The movement of the champion at this time strengthens the argument of many, that he was in a bad way" for a moment, but later recovered and inflicted a heavy pun ishment on his adversary. The knockout is also plainly shown.

Crime a Disease of Heart.

Chicago, Feb. 14.-Where the
churches are full, the prisons are
empty.
Judge Marcus Kavanagh epitomiz-
ed his remarks with that statement.
"Crime," said the jurist, "is not a
matter of the intellect, but of the
disposition; not question Of the
mind, but of the heart"
The contention of many well-hown
criminologists, such as Ferri, Ellis,
aid Garofolo, that "crime is the re-
suit of defective intelligence" he de-
clared has been blasted by DR.. Herman
Adler, state criminologist, through
various intelligence tests.
religion, the most potent force for
good in the world, is back of all laws,
necessary to all reform. Protestants,
Catholics and Jews in prison, are not
there because of their creeds, but in
defiance of them.
"Church-going countries, where the
people actually 60 to church, as Ire
land, Switzerland, Norway, and Den
mark, are the law-abiding countries.
"The Province of Quebec contains
about as many people as the city Of
Chicago. In 1917 it was reported in
the Canadian province that there had
been but one of the graver crimes
against women committed there in the
last sixty years.
