BRENNAN Is SHOWN
THAT FIRPO CAN HIT
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 5.-Luis
Angel Firpo, who meets Jack Demp-
sey. September IA, for the worlds
heavy weight title, fought the first
major battle of his career in Madison
Square Garden last March against
Bill Brennan, Chicago veteran.
Firpo won by a knockout in the.
twelfth round, and Brennan spent a
week in New York hospital recover
ing from concussion of the brain and
other effects of the beating he
suffered.
The end came with dramatic sud-
deness after the Argentine giant. his
face streaming with blood from
cash over one eye, had been trailing
his opponent on points. A terrific
right that landed back of Brennan's
ear was the punch that brought vic
tory to Firpo. The blow sent Bren
nan crashing to the floor where he
lay inert even after the count of ten.
His seconds carried him to his corner
and he was partially revived. He
was taken to the hospital next day.

This is best performed on a

a mighty big family

I HAVE always been glad that La Palma is an
L easy cigar to ask for by name The words
La Palma are derived from the family name of
Paley. 1t is the fitting name for this cigar, for
the simple reason that its manufacture is a
family affair. It's a mighty big family, too
For it includes every employee on the payroll
of this company.
You won't find one person connected with the
manufacture of La Palma who isn't vitally
interested in its quality From the time it is
received at the factory until the finished cigars
are shipped, the fine imported tobacco is treated
with the utmost care.
No process is hurried, nothing is neglected
that will preserve the full flavor and aroma of
the tobacco for the smoker. The method of
packing and shipping is given just as much care
as the manufacture of the cigar. Every pos
sibe effort is made to see that the La Palinas
at the cigar counter are always fresh. And this
is the only way to make and sell fine cigar
To-day, after 81 years of manufacture judg-
ing solely by the friends it has made, am more
proud than ever to explain the meaning of the
name La Palma. IN
