perpetual Motion Dlscredlted.

SIT seems hardly credible, but up to
sthe year, 51772, there was no scientist
In all Europe who knew enough to
cAtegoricalIy deny that there was such
u thing as perpetual motion. ss
It remained for Sir Isaac Newton
and the French scientist, De La Hire,
to demonstrate beyond doubt the i'm.
possibility of attaining It.
Quite a little time passed before
the scientific world in general was
willing to accept the Newtonian the.
DRY, but finally the French Academy
of Science mt Paris, In 1775, publicly
declared that perpetual motion was
an impossibility and thereby branded
all those who still insisted upon ex'
perimenting with It as charlatans.

They all say Gimme a short end
and III fight Dempsey, but show
me another heavy who can sock
and I'm deaf, dumb and blind"
Mr.. Willard should convince the
public that he's there, then holler
for a fight with Dempsey.
Willard can fight if he wants to.
He's q dangerous fellow and he can
hit. The writer was one Of those
who thought Willard the biggest
false alarm the heavyweight divi-
sion ever harbored. He never
showed much height and heft until
he met Dempsey at Toledo, but
there he showed courage. =
Courage is what most Of our
heavies lack.
What heavy that Dempsey ever
hit got up Immediately for more? ?
Many? No, very few.
It was a new experience for Will
lard to bounce off the floor. In
fact, he had never kissed the can
vas until he got into that Toledo
ring. When Dempsey hit him he
hit the floor, and then foolishly got
to his feet before six. had been
counted. Dempsey then promptly
knocked him down again. Not once
did he give his scattered thoughts
a chance to hold a convention.
After each knockdown he got to
his feet as fast as he could.
The chances are that he didn't
remember a thing until he had a
rest after that clownish first round.
At that he threw a scare into
the Dempsey camp by jolting our
Jack in the third with a right to
the chin.
Dempsey was tired, and if Will
lard had gone a bit further, that
fight might have gone on and on.
Get back into form, Jess, show
US one or two fights, and we'll be
willing to take q slant at you again
with the honorable j. Dempsey.
