that she did not share was maddening
to Mona. Why did he sit there draw :

something! And then at last he spoke
What makes you think that Leila

What makes me think so? Oh.
Richard, why will you persist in be.
ing SO infuriating: Why wouldn't she
want to marry him? He has every
thing that would attract any girl, es-
pecially one in Leila's position. This
is what she has wanted from the first.
Ever since she entered the house she

II doubt that very much, and you
must remember, too, that you are

to an angry flush, but Richards con-

anger.
you're letting your imagination
run away with you, Mona, and. OF
course, you wouldn't be charitable
enough to judge the girl fairly. In
stead of making things easy for her,
you've Inundated her unnecessarily
from the day she entered the house.
OF course, it's none of my affair. You
engaged her. But if Barry is in love
with her and wants to marry her, l
shall not oppose it. He'll be lucky
to- get a girl like that, but as I said
before I'm not at all sure that she
would consider it. She doesn't strike
me as the kind of girl who would

selves on being able to brave showers
without impairment of good looks
and smart appearance.
This cannot be done without much
forethought, however. Within the
past decade there have been amaz-
ing strides in the manufacture of wa
terproof materials. There is hardly
a fabric that cannot be had in wa
terproof version. There is water
proof crepe de chine, satin and taft
feta besides a variety of lightweight
waterproof cloth fabrics suitable for
Summertime wear.
The weather that prevailed during
the first weeks of the Summer slim
ulated the making of attractive
rainy day clothes. Some of the most
important of the races We're run on
days when rain was more prevalent
than sun and the women who were
happiest on those occasions were
those who wore clothes really in
tended for the rain-but gay and
cheerful and smart nevertheless. The
sketch shows a Summer raincoat of
navy blue waterproofed taffeta, trim
med with gold kid and a flower also
of gold kid. The blue felt hat has
a gold kid band.

MY Neighbor Says:
When you make chicken soup

When you make chicken soup
try adding a grating of nutmeg
just before serving.
When making buttonholes
first overcast the edges, then
work closely in the usual way.
A buttonho1e worked so will
never fray.
Sugar may be replaced by
). honey when making buildings.
In rice pudding it gives a better
flavor and is preferable.
If the kitchen oilcloth looks
shabby, as it does when the COL,
ors begin to wear off, it may be
made to look equal to new by
being treated in the following
manner: Use brown paint-four
or five cans will cover a large
floor. Choose a time when the
kitchen can be closed for two
days. Coat the oilcloth care
fully and when thoroughly dry
give it a good polishing with
furniture cream.
To clean knife handles or any
bone article use salt and lemon
juice. First rub the article well
with the lemon juice and then
with the salt. This will remove
stains and grease spots.

Olive Sandwiches.

These are made with chopped olives

boiled egg and with enough mayor,

consistency thick enough to spread

The paste for these sandwiches can
be varied in many ways, but it must
always be remembered that olives are
of a very delicate flavor, which may
easily be overpowered by stronger ins

mild, should never be mixed with
olives, and even the quantity of an.
chevy used should be regulated accord.

Rarnum and Stratford.

The house in which Shakespeare
was born at Stratford remained rela.

perceived it's value as a show place.
Barnum had toured England during
the mid-Victorian years and offered to
buy the birthplace of the Bard of
Avon, presumably for removal to the
United States. Thereupon the British
admirers of the bard were aroused and
acquired possession of the house,

Harold Adams, OF Fresno, known
in ring circles as the Butcher
Boy, took a slight workout in the
FL Centre arena last night. Billy
MCGOWAN, Los Angeles fighter, took
part in the workout and in the third
round he took something elsc--a
kayo after two minute and ~ SEE
onds of fighting, going down twice
under series of short, but power
full blows which found a resting
place on his jaw, staying down the
second time and taking the 10 count
in Adams corner.
The decisive manner in which
Harold trimmed Mac left no doubt
as to who is the better man of the
two. Mac is said to have earned
"A draw with Adams in Los Angeles
some time ago but the latter either
improved lot since that time or
Mae has gone back few miles. The
win by Adams entities him to bout
with Harry Lee, San Diego light
heavy, and he has already been sign
ed for the meeting which will take
place next Friday in the local arena.
The bout between Mae and Adams
started slowly and both boys spar
red cautiously in the opener. Neither
had any advantage to boast of. Mac
held back content TO have the going
at long range and he employed cf-
fective lefts that found their way
to Adams face repeatedly but which
did little damage.
In the second Adams set the pace,
carrying the fight to McGowan and
Furnishing him with short sharp
.abs, mostly directed to the head
and jaw.
McGowan did not show anything
like the will. oncss to battle that
he evinced in his bout here last
week with Harry Lee and the gal
ley gods impatient at the lack Of
heavy punching, started singing the
"brother act - hymn. The Fresno
maulcr took the round.
Up to the opening of the third
there had been no indication that
the bout was destined for a sudden
termination. Adams had been go
ing along steadily, working ON
Macs Jaw in effective fashion and
landing one in the cafeteria. In the
third things began to happen. Adams
speedcd up. He worked in close,
unlooscncd wicked b0dT attack
and took the play away from Me
Gowan. After about two minutes
ed fighting he got Mac in his own
corner and smothercd him with snort
damaging blows which seemed to
travel less than four inches.
Mae came out, forcing Adams to-
ward the center of the ring. As
he lead out with "A left Adams step
ped in and drofpcd him with Il say
the center of the ring, almost on h's
face. He took a nine count and
lcramblcd to his feet. Adams al
lowed him to come in close, worked
,ut of clinch and plastereA him
rith a fusiIladc of blows to the
jaw.
So effective was the barragc that
Mas was unable 10 make IA return.
He seemed helpless before the on
sIaught of gloves and as he backed
in Adams corner he caught one
flush om the button. He went
down, almost through the ropes, and
landed on his back near the edge of
the ring. He was out and if they
allowed Il 30 count he would have
taken it. Adams was the first 10

in the ring called their 10 round
bout a draw.
The decision was greeted bv the

| usual objections, minus cushions.
The disciple from Compton piled
up big lead in the early rounds
OF the bout. DE Hate outpunchcd
the shifty Ausse.. Demsky made
the the mistake of trying to box his
opponent until the seventh round
began.
From then until the C:;d Demsky
threw aside science and stood toe to

BritIsher outscored the Southern
Californian by IA goodly margin and
won majority OF the last four
rounds.
DE Hate had Demsky in distress
several times during the bout, but
allowed the antipodean to recover.

by trimming Freddie Mack, who had
knocked out Kavo Kellv last week,
