DEMPSEY MAY BOX HERE
BY LOUIS II. JAFFE

W1ARM weather doesn't mean any
w thing in the lives Of boxing bugs
in Philadelphia. Supposedly the of
season for pugilistic proclivities, thou
sands of fans pour out for the occasional
summer fist fuses decided in the open
air, and in reality supporters Of scrap
get an opportunity to see more and bet
ter talent on one program than during
the regular campaign.
For instance, Loughran, Tunney,
Shaney, France, Benjamin. Tiplitz,
Brown, Moran and one or two others
all on one card. To New Yorker the
other day such program seemed almost
impossible. He said: why, any pro.
moter putting together such bunch of
stars must be looney or something
How can he afford it without digging
deep In his jenns!'
In New York the fans there separate
themselves from three to five times as
much as Philadelphians to see an open
air show, but with only one big set-t
as the attraction. OF course, the
Gotham glovefests are fifteen FOUNDERS
to n decision, which makes matters more
attractive.
Herman Taylor and Bobby Gunnis
for several years have been responsible
for bringing together different pro-
grams-either four-bout cards. but
usually programs including five matches
and each of eight rounds duration.
This combination since their open air
endeavors has shown almost every star
fistman in America. with the possible
exception of Jack Dempsey, and it is
said they are trying to pair of the
worlds titleholder with either Harry
Greb or Tom Gibbons for date in
September.

OF the Biblical Shulamith one would
rather think in winter.
In summer. when we feel ears lives
called out to field and wood, w:sswould
rather ponder on the quiet Bibl:cal
Ruth.
If you but think of the y'mc of
Ruth, it is as If n cool wind had stolen
in from the fields among the corn and
has passed over you.
Ruth and Shulamith they are the
two extremes, the two opposing ideals
of woman and womanhood. Ruth is
passivity. the symbol of pious humi;-
ity. Shulamith is dark and come y.
burned with the sun and with pas
sion.

Shulamith could not have said That.
II she had found herself placed like
Ruth, she would have said to Naomi,
"Whither thou goest 1 will run after
thee" Shulamith is too tempestuous.
too full Of passion. She coull not
follow quietly after anyone.
And Rutll-even by the side Of the
calm and peaceful Naomi-Ruth is he
ideal of quietness and humility. She
lacks the embittcredness of Naomi,
Notwithstanding that she is much
younger, and must have felt her loss

Disraeli as a Jew


what wonderful career was that
of Disraeli,' said the late Lord Bryce.
"An adventurer, foreign in race, in
ideas, in temper, without money or
family connections, climbs by patient
and unaided efforts to lead great
party, master powerful aristocracy,
sway a vast empire and to make him
self one OF the four of five greatest
personal forces in the world. His head
is nots turned by his elevation. He
never becomes a demagogue he never
stoops to beguile the multitude by ap-
pealing to sordid instincts.
ITO lay stress on the fact that Dis
raeli was of Hebrew birth is not,
though some of his political antag-
onists stopped to use 1t, to cast any
repronch upon him. Disraeli has three
of the characteristics of his race-de-
tachment, intensity, the passion for
material success. Nature gave him a
resolute will, keen and precociously
active intellect, a vehement Individual
ity and determination to make them
recognized by his fellows. No religious
influences worked upon him, for his
father had ceased to be Jew in faith
without becoming even nominally a
Christian. Thus his development was
purely intellectual. He might have been
a great satirist; he resolved to become
great statesman. For such a career
his Hebrew detachment gave him some
eminent advantages A great source
of his strength lay in his Hebrew in
tensity. 1t would have pleased him, so
full of pride in the pure blood of his
race, to attribute to that purity the
singular power of concentration which
the Jews undoubtedly possess. They
have the faculty of throwing the whole
stress Of their natures into the pursuit
of one object, fixing their eyes on 1t
alone, sacrificing 1t to other desires,
,clinging to 1t even when 1t seems un-
attainable. SO far from seeking to con-
ceal his Jewish origin, he displayed his
pride in it and refused all support to
the efforts which the Tory party made
to maintain the exclusion of Jews from
Parliament. His opponents learned to
fear one who never feared himself"
During the American Civil War Dis
raeli was the only leading statesman on
his own side of politics who did not
embrace and applaud the cause Of the
South. Whatever the cause, the fact
is an evidence Of his prudence or
sagacity all the more weighty because
Lords Palmerston, Russell, Derby and
Mr.. Gladstone and Sir Hugh Cairns
had each Of them expressed more or
less sympathy with or belief In the sue
cess of the Southern cause.

quiet faith, full of humility; and
when the wise Naomi tells her to go
of the heap of corn, at the feet of
Boaz, she goes out and uncovers his
feet and lies her down.
Shulamith would never have done
that She is the passion of love !:
Ruth is its calm.
One would rather think of Ruth in
summer, wheA nature overcomes us.
Immediately you mention the name
Ruth" it is a5 if cool wind stole
over you out of the field among the
corn
Which is more Jewish? The snl-
burned Shulamith or the quiet Ruth :!
Which of these two Biblical figures ex-
press more truly the Jewish type of
woman?
How solitary is Ruth among Biblical
women! Miriam, Judith, Shulamith,
they are all such surong heroic figures
If we put Ruth at their side she looks
The Book of Ruth is the quietest poem
novel in the Bible. Ruth is like &
stranger in the immortal pantheon OF
prophets, propheteases and kings. A
little quiet stream has hidden itself
in n valley among fire-spitting vol
canoes.
Thy people shall be my people, and
whittier thou goest 1 will co.
Shulamith, like the rest of the
Biblical ,women. is by temperament a
daughter or younger sister of those
manly giants the prophets.
Ruth Is like stranger among them.
1t is not for nothing that the old sages
and scrfbes constantly referred to her
as Ruth the Afoabite--Ruth who
came to us out of the fields of Moab.
She recalls the most placid of Rap
hael's Madonnas.
Shulamith is storm-tOssed love. Ruth
is the calmness of love. She is static.
Shulamith is dynamic. These two
women are the eternal motives of all
literature, and we have not yet ex-
hausted their mentality.
Which is more faithful? Shulamith
anoints her form and feet for the sake
of her beloved, and allows him to go
away when he comes, fearing lest she
defile her feet by going down to open
for him. Ruth again, has attached
herself so thoroughly to her Jewish
husband that she is prepared to adopt
his family, his nation, and his God.
She ,obeys unhesitatingly when Naomi
tells her to go out Mt night and lie
down at the feet of Boaz.
Shulamith is the jealous priestess,
watching over her love. Ruth is the
pious. obedient servant of her love.
King David. too. inherited something
from his grandmother. (How can we
think of Ruth as being old y Other
wise. he could not have sung his
psalms "when he fled from Absolom
his SON."

NEW. MAY STREET
GRAVEL PIT OPPOSED

Property owners and citizens have
appealed to the county court to drop
suit brought for condemning four acres
of Paradise Farm just west of the city
on May street road, the property to be
utilized as county gravel pit. Those
opposed to the move of the county that
Hood River residential sections can
only build westward. They say that
the new golf club, the links of which
will be at the west edge of town, the
Columbia Gorge hotel and the general
topography of the community, is caus-
ing new homebulders to seek locations
at the west edge of town. The open
ing of another large block of land, to
be excavated and left an eyesore, they
say, detracts from neighborhood that
is growing into one of substantial
homes.
The county already owns May street
acreage, utilized.as a gravel pit. The
roadbuilding material. however, has
practically been exhausted. Authori-
ties cite that the gravel Of this district
is the best in the community for road
work. 1t is also stated that the cost
Of removing valuable equipment set up
at the old pit, all of which can be util-
lied in working the proposed new pits,
will be considerable. Gravel is avail
able on the East Side, but it is de-
clared that it is not as high in quality
as the West Side material.

COUNCIL WILL GIVE
OLD OAK REPRIEVE

The city council, the street commit
tee of which has been seeking senti-
ment of citizens on removal of an aged
oak tree at the corner of Oak and
Fourth streets, decided Monday night
to give the tree a reprieve. Decayed
limbs will be removed and the big tree
given a general surgical overhauling.
G. o. Huelat, representing the civic
committee of the Commercial club, af-
ter an appeal to the council to provide
an ordinance that will put convicted
prisoners to work on a rockpile or at
other labor, was informed that the
city has had such an ordinance since
1895. Mr.. Huelat, who stated that he
vas particularly interested in seeing
the restoration of rockpile sentences as
means of alleviating the bootleg
liquor evil, was told that the city
rarely ever had prisoners, that most of
those ncarcerated at the city Jail were
held on state charges.
The council discussed plans for an
ordinance that will govern installation
of plumbing in the city. 1t is proposed
that all plumbing shall be inspected
and installed in sanitary and stand
ardized manner.

MOUNT HOOD MOVES
ITS DINING ROOM

After serving meals for 81 years
without a single break, the Mount
Hood hotel closed its old dining room
last week, simultaneously opening a
main dining room in the basement of
the Mt. Hood Annex. The old dining
room, a portion of which, according to
plans will be utilized in enlarging
lobby space of the hostelry, was open
longer than any other hotel dining
room of the mid Columbia. With the
exception of the old Umatilla House,
of The Dalles, the local hosteIry is the
oldest in this section of the state. The
Dalles hotel, however, has made sew
eIal changes in the location of its din
ing room.
The old dining room for the past Ia
years has been served by Charley
Gumm, as chief cook. For the past
several years Charley, as he is famili-
arly known, has been lessee of the din
ing room service. He will assume
similar charge of the large new dining
quarters.
