PEOPLE WON'T STAND FOR
 NASTINESS.

Massachusetts papers quoted statement made by Senator Gillett of Massachusetts in which the solon was said to have compared to the dsad- vantage of Mrs. Smith the qualifications of the wives of the two leading candidates for pancy of the White House The Springfield Union, leading Republican paper of Western Massachusetts. took the Senator to task. and the storm that created among those of all classes, that Senator Gillett in letter to the press denied that he had ever made the complained of cam parison that he had said word, or entertained a thought, that Mrs. Smith was not well quali- fled, culturally. socially or otherwise for the position of mistress of the White House. He said that for a decade she had been the First Lady" of New York and that all reports were that she had gracousy and charmngly fulfilled all the requirements of the station, and that her popularity among those of all strata of society was ample evidence that nothing could be said against her that would not be untruthful.
 Whether not Senator Gillett ever made the alleged charges in private conver- sation, his public statement settled the contro- versy, for at worst it a complete retraction
 The Springfield Unions reason for calling down the Senator of it's own party was that if wanted to do it's part toward ''nipping in the bud" seeming disposition in many quarters to carry on unthinkabe campaign of nastiness against Gov. Smith. It declared that so far as results are concerned that such a campaign could only operate against MT Hoover At least he said, it would sacrifice the New England States where people familiar with the records o1 Gov. and Mrs. Smith, and where they are i'm mensely popular.

His young wife was waiting for him to give him late supper before he would retire for his nights-day's rather-sleep. She greeted him in the family garage and discovered a pack age the running board. It opened and found to contain jewels that afterward as certained to be worth $25, ,000 Carl reported early at the cab office the next morning, turning in the gems and the story of their finding An inquiry from the cab office disclosed that Com mander William Heard of the United States Navy had reported to the police the loss of the jewery.

Small-IOwn Scandal.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

Most people who have had experience with small-town life familiar with whose legs are faint with haste to propagate the lie his soul had framed" And it need not necessarily be a le-the ae-bearer may carry true tale, but which is as deadly the sting of the rattlesnake.
 Malicious gossip. perhaps has been responsible any other evil agent in the history of human experience.
 But there is a lot of loose talk indulged in by people in small communities and by neighbor- hood groups in cities which exactly is not slander, but a sordd and unkindly sort of inter- which makes for cheapness of character, for impoverishment of soul and is responsible for the dissemination of much hap piness.
 A writer in the current American Magazine offers recipe for happiness in the small con- munity-and it is as worthy of application in the units of city--which with profit might be fol- lowed by many folks whose hearts are as shriv- leled their tongues are sharp.
 First, must possess sense of humor, or make effort to cultivate it. This is prime essen- tial says the writer. Other requirements for hap piness in town, village city neighborhood are tolerance, kindliness, human interest, discretion lneighborliness, contentment, magnanimity, mod esty and interest in work.
 Bear no grudge if you want to be happy D says the writer. Be slow to take offense Over look much. And when it comes your turn to forgive, be good forgiven" All are very commendable and true The same recipe is to be found in very old books perhaps not too generally read in these hurried hectic days, and not likely to be serially reprinted in the American or any other magazine, but which stll is available to those who would be happy Tn small town, or elsewhere

Tunney: Sportsman.
New York Worldly

No finer piece of sportsmanshp seen anywhere than that which Tunney exhibited dur ing the eighth round of the fight Thursday night. In that round, it will be recalled, Heeney suddenly developed trouble with his eye. Afterward it was explained that the lid turned under by a punch from Tunney. But at the moment nobody knew what the matter with it, least of all Tunney All that known that in one moment Heeney fighting hard and in the next moment he helpless unable to see brushing at his eye with his glove.
 Now, by all traditions of the prize-ring this should have been the signal for Tunney to step in and make the kill Heeney absolutely at his mercy and there rule that compelled him to give any quarter whatever. But what did he do? He stood and waited until Heeney able to go on. He did not walk off and make grand stand play of it. he merely withheld his attack until Heeney resumed the fight of his accord
 Say what you will, this a magnificent thing. If Tunney actually feels that he is little above the general of prize-fghters as he is said to feel, then he proved that he actually is above them by this piece of sportsmanship. It is also to his credit that he had little appetite for the gory work that he called upon to do in the final round The issue had been decided in the tenth round, with Heeney beaten to pulp and unable to get to his feet. To subject him to further chopping unseemly, and that Tun- hey was squeamish about it shows that he is really man of fine sensbities. as he is said to be.
 All in a the champion emerged from this fight much bigger than he had been thought to be. He proved once more that he is a superb boxer; he proved that he is fighter: he proved that he is a man.

THE TUNNEY ANNOUNCEMENTS AND
 OUR GOOD WISHES.

When Tunney announced his retirement it was suspected by many that engagement an nouncement would soon follow Several writers guessed it out loud It has been discovered that the bride-to-be is woman of large wealth as well culture and beauty.
 It is probable that the wealth of Miss Lauder had no part in winning the affections of Tunney but it is possible that it had mething to do with his retirement from the prize ring While Tun- ney is rich there is sign that he would not like to be richer, and to be the active heavyweight champion puglist of the world is worth several hundred thousand dollars year even without half -million-dollar better battle When one considers Tunneys youth, health, habits and ready reaction to training, it is easy to under stand that the heavyweight championship would be worth several millions of dollars to him during the next five years. That is probably more than he could make in any other way notwithstanding the fatterng offers he has received in both the banking and commercial worlds
