during the last fifteen years. William

for number Of years and then came
the great net era sponsored by Mau

r. y. Williams was the first
American TO use the all court method

startled the entire tennis world when
he started playing his strokes off the

present. The lanky champion is mas

needless to say, he knows how to use

have taken great pride in the way
Harold has conducted himself. But
This is not n sob story.
Regardless of the amount Of money
that Harold will make in his profess
sional venture, the father will not
seek the life of Kelley, the cele-
brated Egyptian.
~I've worked too hard 10 stop

yet. / have another year to 20 as
chief deputy of Du Page county aDd
after that I'll get another job. My
people never believed in loafing."
1t is the absolute frankness Of
Dad Grange that impresses one
most.
He's as open as an ocean.
Its been rather rough going for
u.s." he confided. by that l don.
mean that we we're in poverty. Moth
ing like that at all. But it just
meant close living TO get along and
send two boys to the University Of
Illinois on my salary of 5000 per
month. Fathers who are sending
boys TO college will appreciate what
this means.
JUST RED TO THEM.
During the war it was pretty
tough going. I was making S12J
per month as chief of police. That
didn't allow for many Injuries Of
life
Probably there is less talk Of the
new football Midas in Wheaton than
in any other csity in the country.
The townspeople have known Red
Grange since he was a little boy.
They knew him as a great athlete at
Wheaton High. where his record on
the football field greatly exceeded
anything he ever did at the Univer-
sity Of Illinois. And while they are
delighted to hear that he has been
called "the greatest in football his
tory" they accept all this hooray as
foregOne conclusion.
Really there is little talk Of Red
Grange heard in Wheaton. Contrast
his home town, then. TO What Cheer,
Iowa, or Rolling Prairie, Ind. where
every new baby born is referred 10
as the Red Grange Of 1913.
MEET MA" DOLLINGER.
Red Grange and Garland Grange
and Dad" Grange, too, never will
forget Mrs. c. a. Dollinger. the drug
gist's wife. 1t was she who took
the Grange boys under her maternal
wing when childhood bumps and
bruises were 10 be blamed. She
supplied the mother love for the
boys at a time when they needed It
most. She could tell a lot Of
"Hucklebcrry Finn stories on this
rcd-headcd boy who has dazzled the
sporting world
Mrs. Dollinger Is the typical small
town mother that you read about.
She supplied 10 Red Grange what his
father could not give him. Only a
mother can do that for a boy,
whether be il her boy or some one
clse's boy. And the heaping platter
~ homemade cookies is still one OF
her institutions.
II don't suppose wen ever see
much Of Harold any more" Mrs.

harvest for a fist full Of cookies.
