Knockout Victories

In these days as a top-notcher among the light-heavies, Tunney was chiefly defensive fighter, lacking in aggressiveness, but in the past two years, he has changed his tactics, simultaneous with an entry into the full-fledged heavyweight realm.
 The former Marines defeat of Georges Carpenter by a knockout in 1924 in New York was the turning point of his fighting career. It was this fight that convinced Tunney his future lay in heavyweight ranks and also that he had a real knockout punch. He demonstrated it in notable fashion the following year by knock outs of two such formidable antagon- ists as Tom Gibbons and Bartley Mad den, men who had stayed the limit with Dempsey and Harry Wills, re- spectively.
 Tunney's first professional fight oc- cured in 1919 at Jersey City, shortly after his return from overseas, and ended in the knockout of his opponent, Bob Pierce. Subsequently the Marine registered a dozen knockouts in quick succession over lesser opponents.

Gene was born and raised in the Village, the heart of downtown New York, and trained at the age of 19 rough and ready sector of Greenwich and 20, in the rougher and readier life of the Marines, here and at such plac- es of action as Belleau Wood
 The Devil Dogs" are proud of Tun- ney. They saw him fight his way to the boxing championship of the A. E. F., then enter professional ranks and gain the light heavyweight title. Now, with the biggest fistic prize of all as his goal, Genes former buddies are taking a personal interest in his chal- lenge of the "Manassa Mauler."
 Tunney's rise has not been specta- cular, but it has been steady, consist ent and impressive, particularly in the last few years. He has never been knocked out, and he has lost only one official decision, that to Harry Greb in 1922 at Madison Square Garden and along with it the American 175-pound title which he later regained from the same opponent.

Our Children-By Angelo Patri

1t is their duty to keep the children
who use language unfit for childish
ears, who have habits that healthy
children ought not to have, who axe
sophisticated beyond the horizon Of
childhood, away from little children
who have not had experiences that
help them to appraise such conduct
rightly
Playmates are very important
They influence children more than
adults do in many cases. They ought
to be selected with as much care as
one uses in selecting a school or a
doctor or a church association. One
line child character lifts u whole
group; one poor one lowers it. Isolate
the child who brings evil tidings Fail
ing that, the teacher has TO undertake
the task.
Neighbors are 10th to send each
others children home, but when they
DO not agree III manners and princI.
pie with those already there. it is
the best thing to do. Children are en-
titled 10 protection against the spoiled.

SUB ROSA
Quickest Way Out.

Rose firmly believes that If you
want to get out of something-to make
a graceful exit-it's necessary to take
great liberties with the truth.
IF I've made a date with the wrong
man. she tells me, 'and suddenly the
rlght man comes to town and rings
| me up, / Just grab the phone and
make up some yarn to appease Mr.
Wrong. That's the system"
Yes, that's a system, but it doesn't
| always work. Mary called Bob the
other night TO tell him that she
couldn't possibly go to the theater
Her most especial friend, Ted, had
just arrived from college. but she
didn't tell Bob that
Hello. Bob. I'm frightfully sorry,
but l won't be able TO keep my date
with you this evening. Mothers got
someone she says l must dine with.
It's an awful bore, but | can't get out
of it very well. Old family friend
that sort of thing, you know"
Cant you meet me right after din
ner?" pleaded Bob. IF you explained
things. they'd surely forgive your
dashing away"
'Oh, goodness, no: they'd be furi-
Gus. said Mary hastily.
Then let me drive YOU down to
wherever you're going
That's awfully kind of YOU" Mary
was nervous. but we've not far to
go"
"Where are you dining?" this, casu.
ally, from Bob. And then began some
very elaborate lying by little Mary and
some more suspicious questions from
Robert. with the result that Is min
uteS later. Mary, crimSon-faced, hung
up the receiver, feeling the shame of
a child caught out in Il very bad fib
Even the most clever girl gets
tripped up if she continually resorts
to lies to get out of an unpleasant
situation
Some girls, having become entaugled
in an unfortunate love affair, decide
that it's time to end everything, and
forthwith concoct a plausible reason
for dropping out.
Barbara told Ben the other day that
she was through with him forever
because he was so internally jealous OF
her.
AS a matter of fact. she was just
bored to death with him. Poor Ben
ME. anxious to do anything to keep
In her good graces, solemnly promised
that he'd never object to her flirting
with anybody again. And then Bar
bara found herself in deeper than ever.
With this added proof of his devotion.
it became more difficult for her to tell
him the cold truth.
Telling people unpleasant truths
takes lot of moral courage, but it's
really the easiest and quickest way of
getting out of disagreeable situations.
It's unpleasant for a few minutes, but
then it's over and done with. You're
clear-not all tangled up in lies and
evasions.
Even those people whom you hurt
with your honesty will have greater
respect for your candor than they
would for your ability to fib plausibly.

under his breath and there was a
choky feeling in his throat. "Oh,
dear! L don't want to see Mr.. Quack

Mr.. Quack caught. But he is going to
be. L won't look. I'll shut my eyes.
Nothing in all the great world ca n
save Mr.. Quack now. Oh, dear, Oh,
dear"'
So Peter shut his eyes. He kept
them shut as long as he could. He
dreaded to open them. but he Just
couldn't keep them shut very long.
When he did open them. Mr. and Mrs.
Quack were nowhere to be seen. How
Peter did stare. He stared up the
river; he stared down the river: he
stared across the river. Not so much
as feather of Mr.. and Mrs. Quack
could he see. But in a moment, look
ing up higher, he saw Killer the Duck
Hawk. Killer was flying away He
was not going at that great speed with
which he had chased Mr.. Quack and
Mrs. Quack. Peter looked eagerly.
anXiously, to see if in those great
claws of his he was carrying Mr..
Quack. He wasn't. There was moth
ing in those claws. Peter rubbed both
be no doubt about it, Mr.. and Mrs.
Quack had disappeared and Killer
the Duck Hawk was flying away
without either of them.
1t was very mysterious. Peter be
gan to wonder if the whole thing
hadn't been a dream. He had almost
persuaded himself that it must have
been, when in the rushes growing out
in the water of the Big River Just
above him he heard familiar voice.
1t was the voice of Mr.. Quack. INV

narrow escape that time
I'VE did so, my DEAR" replied Mrs
Quack. ''Of course, / do not like te
disappoint any one. but somehow ]
have no desire to furnish Mr.. Duck
Hawk a dinner. He was reaching foi
you, my dear, when you hit the water
and dived. I think you must have
splashed water in his very face"
Then Peter understood. He knew
that Mr.. and Mrs: Quack had plunged
under water just in the very nick OF
time. Probably they had stayed dow1
as long as they could and, when they
had come up, had just taken a breath
and dived again. Then they hac
finally reached the rushes and there
they were safe

But l never want to see such mar

Playmates.

Again and again the question of
playmates for the children arises. 1t
is plain that they cannot live alone,
cannot grow alone. They must have
other children to sharpen their wits
on. Growth requires a little friction.
But playmates are sure to bring
trouble.
No two homes have the same stand
ard of manners and conduct. What
seems perfectly all right in one home
will shock the sensitive nerves of the
family in another. Slang Will meet
with favor in one family and be
frowned upon severely in another.
One father tells his children Ito sock
him one in the nose if he takes your
things" and another will say, Never
raise your hand to anybody, no mat
ter what happens"
The children from the varying
homes meet iE the common play
ground and each gives to each what
is in him. Soon the effects of the as
sociation show and parents are moved
to declare: You keep away from that
child. He does you no good. / don't
like his family, anyway. Never did.
You keep away. You hear?"
Now keeping away is not so easy.
The little ones in the yard soon tire

standing against the prison bars gaz-
ing wistfully at the neighbor's yard.
The fact that it is not nearly so clean
nor so well equipped for play makes
not the least difference. Companion
ship is the thing and the exclusive lit
tie colony is lonesome and doesn't
care who knows it.
When that happens it is just as
well to put on your bonnet and shawl
or your seven-league boots, and go
forth and haul in a decent, healthy
youngSter who wants to play. He
need not be wealthy, but he must have
clean instincts and a desire for com
panionship and fun. The children
who are not clean instinctively, clean
in their views of life, are to be shun-
ned as the plague. Isolation will
teach them to behave like real people
if anything will. 1t is not right that
neglected children should injure pro
tected ones.
The parents and the teachers de
vote themselves to the care and pro-
lection of children under their care.

green's in all the various tints that
are SO popular today are used for

characteristic of this type of needle
work.
Applying Design.
Designs may be large for costumes
or smaller for accessories. Frequently
the motif is used on the front of the
frock only, though it is apt to be
extended all the way around the
blouse. Sometimes q single motif
will ornament the skirt, or border
of the work about a parasol covered
with plain silk is decidedly chic and
quite in line with the coming fashion
for fancy parasols. Pockets on
frocks may be ornamented with the
work. and bags and other accessories
are smart with such embroidery
Good for Many Uses.
1t may be mentioned that while the
work is particularly featured just
now on articles for the wardrobe. it
lends itself admirably to sofa cush-

materials.
A design with directions will be
sent free, with the compliments of

request, incloses self addressed and

What T omorrowMeans oYou
BY MARY BLAKE.
Aries.

Tomorrow planetary aspects are
adverse and continue so throughout
the day. There is no reason TO an
ticipate any interference with routine
work if it be done conScientiOuSly and
painstakingly. Ii is wise. however.
to refrain from activities that involve
either change or initiative. The pre-
vailing influences will engender a
spirit of pessimism. tinged with in
difference or callousness. and this is
not an atmosphere that can assist
new enterprises. Speculation and risk
must be severely avoided. So far as
effect on temperament is concerned.
every effort should be made to estab-
lish poise and maintain equilibrium,
and you must resist the urge to be-
come critical of others or too critical
of yourself.
Children born tomorrow are, accord
ing to the signs, destined to have
rather hectic times during infancy.
They should be fed with great care
and regularity and given plenty of
fresh air Once. however. they have
successfully overcome the struggles of
babyhood. they will flourish like the
green bay tree and achieve physical
normalcy. In character, they will be
steadfast and loyal, and no matter
what their failing may be, they will
a confidence. They will lack ambition
and be too satisfied with conditions
as they are, ever to feel an incentive
to better or change them. They will.
however, possess great kindness of
heart and always be considerate of
others.
If tomorrow is your birthday, you
possess more than average ability, al
though it has more of a scintillating
than a well-grounded foundation.
You have no very deep conviction and
are ever ready to trim your sails.
You are very quick to take advantage,
to your own profit, of any unexpected
situation that may arise and are not
too careful of your friends interests.
You are a strong believer in the princi-
pie every one for himself, or her
self"
Although you can accomplish a
great deal in short space of time.
you are not painstaking, and any
task that requires consistent work
and never-ceasing effort is quite out of
your province.
AS a companion. rather than as a
friend, your society is very much
sought and you can generally put life
into any group that is, in a figurative
sense. dead
Well known persons born on that
date are: James Harper, publisher;
Denison Chase, inventor; Seth Adams,
inventor and manufacturer: Samuel
Fl. Scudder, scientist: Richard T. Ely.
economist; Henry T. Allen, United
States Army general.

One Point
BY FLORENCE DAVIES.

Fourteen points may be We'll
enough for nations, but they are no
good for human beings. The Brooklyn
woman who drew up fourteen-point
program for her husband had thirteen
too many. All she and her husband
needed was one point of love. Of
course, if she wanted TO season that
with n little common sense, so much
the better. But one main point is
enough for a constitution and bylaws
for any happy marriage. You can call
it mutual love or mutual loyalty, but
it all amounts to about the same
thing.
After that. there's no use to add
rules and regulations. no use at all
to outline a program of conduct:
You do this. and I'll do that. You
come home at 10 O'Clock, and stay
in three nights a week
How foolish. Love doesn't go by
rule.
People who care for each other
like to be together. and that's that.
If they don't like to be together,
making a rule about it won't make
the being together worth while.
So when the Brooklyn woman
offered her husband a program of
fourteen rules, laying down the law
be away from home, she was licked
before she started.
No, we can't argue each other into
being considerate and thoughtful and
playing fair. Those are the things
that we do for each other because
we want to. When we have to com
mence doing it by rule, then the
thing the rule stands for ceases TO
be of any value.
The Brooklyn woman's fourteen
points covered just the things that
people who care for each other take
for granted. You don't have to state
That you will let me run the house
and baby; that l will have your con-
fidence in money matters and access
to your bank account; that you will
have one night a week for yourself
and L will have the same etc.
through fourteen rules and regula-
tions.
The errant husband. who was to be
given one more trial on this basis,
refused the offer.
"No,' said he those fourteen
points sound too much like the terms
of a victorius general offered to a
vanquished foe. They are not for
me-" Whereupon the couple were
granted a divorce.
Family separations are always to
be regretted. But the gentleman who
refused to accept a dictated pro-
gram of conduct was quite right.
1t isn't done that way. You start
out with mutual love and loyalty and
throw in some common sense, and
all the rules of life, whether there
be fourteen or forty, settle themselves
and fall into their proper places.
You don't lay down rules. You just
care enough and then follow the
dictates of your heart.

Clues to Character
BY j. O. ABERNETHY.
Perseverance,.

There are persons who will follow
purpose or a plan for years, even if
great and innumerable obstacles in
tervene in the meantime. They will
never let up until the object is
achieved. This firmness of purpose is
a quiet, persistent force which carries
measures and pursues plans in a
quiet, patient and continuous manner
without noisy demonstration.
In long-continued illness no faculty,
not even hope, SO sustains and 'upholds
the patient as perseverance. 1t con-
quers by submitting and enduring.
This faculty is the one of all most
needed, whether it be to- stem the
course of a disease or in a battle for
human rights.
The chin is the most reliable facial
sign of perseverance and steadfast-
ness. When the chin is long and
protrudes, you may know that firm
ness is not lacking here. The bodily
signs are shown by large bones and
joints, long -boned hands and fingers
and prominent knuckles.
When this faculty is developed 70
an excess it results in stubborness
and an unreasoning disposition. which
produces hard unlovable character.
