1 By The Associated Press,
 Great Falls. Mont. June 2s.-Re' freshed from a day Of relaxation Jack Dempsey today starts The 1nal week Of training before the period or drying out for his championship match with Tommy Gibbons at shel. by July 1.
 The champion will resume boxing in his outdoor ring this afternoon, going 10 $ rounds with his light CT sparring partners. This will be his schedule until Sunday.
 Dempsey is starting his last train ing peAod in the best Of spirits. The grouchy touchy atmosphere which usually has surrounded the champion within this distance of his previous title bouts is lacking. There las been nothing to worry him for this match.
 Is Hitting Hard. He is getting harder and boxing with more speed" Kearns said. Tn fact Dempsey is a better fighter tran he ever was. He is a finished fighter in great shape and ready for Gibbons"
 This opinion also is held by critics who saw Dempsey in train- ing before he met Jess Willard at Toledo and who followed his train- ing activities at the Atlantic City camp before Georges Carpenter fell at Jersey City.
 Ben Down But Not Out.
 Dempsey spent a day of idleness yesterday. He planned to visit Big Ben" Wray, the Okla homa giant who landed in a hospital with a broken jaw last Friday, but Wray had enough of the hospital and left be- fore the champion got around to him.
 The big Oklahoman, towering seven feet two inches, has no idea of giv- ing up his ambition of becoming a heavyweight contender.

IMMORTALITY IN THE PEN
Centennial of Its First Manufacture
by Machinery Is Deserved
Tribute to Its Power.

They have been celebrating in
England the centennial of the first
manufacture by machinery of the steel
pen, says the Philadelphia Ledger
Hard hit by the war, the Birmingham
trade in pens has declined from 1o,ooo
gross week to a third of the number.
AS far as the United States Is
concerned, Camden is the birthplace
of the steel pen industry on large
scale. A.le Manufacture OF the pens
was begun in about the year 1850, ana
the large company was Incorporated III
1866. Metallic pens of any sort We're
not in common use until the middle of
the Nineteenth century, though DIR.
Joseph priestley had steel pen fash
ioned for him in 1870 The earliest
pens, made by hand, cost more than
a dollar apiece, and were cumbersome
and inconvenient Instruments even NJ
that price.
The output of Camden's pen facto-
ries has nodded opinion and made his
tory. It is impossible to trace the vast
influence in human affairs of what
Gilbert Chesterton calls the little
scratching pen" that has "split the
hearts of men," 1t has been called
mightier than the sword, but that tells
only part of the story. Civilization
leans on the written word. and the
pen has in Its gift immortality for
those who use it with power to tell
the truth. The same steel might make
a bullet to take a mans life. But
the pen has found mems hearts, not
to end lives, but to bless and heal
