MT. LAKE PARK.
WHY WE ARE HAPPY

Mr.. Edison has made the pro-
nouncement that he knows no one who
is happy. A great many people do
not agree with him believing, perhaps,
that the word 'happy" has been con-
fused with the word "contented."
For instance, we were, for the mo-
ment, happy when we noticed that the
Association had begun to put in OPP
GRAFTON cleanup plan along the
front of the Park by. removing the
brush and alders which have been
growing profusely since the begin
ming of time. That operation alone
will go a long way toward adding
beauty and value to the property Of
not only the Association but the in
dividual property owner also. We
know it (the Association) will not be
contented to stop with that improve
ment.
Then again we are happy that j. A.
Enlow, Wiley yelling, Charlie Mar
tin and Frank Arnold, all young men
of tender years, have volunteered to
trim up the trees and cut the weeds
along the boardwalk to the postoffice
and railway station. We also know
that other citizens will not permit
them to do all the work
So you see there is a great deal of
difference between being happy and
being contented srr,-
On the other hand, we did not radi-
ate happiness when we had to plow
through the mud the other evening to
make call on Neighbor Oswald, and

Ford Car Stolen.

Last Wednesday evening about 1870
o'clock the Ford coupe owned by Mr..
c. A. Bender was stolen from in front
of the National Hotel on the National
Highway and driven from that
point down an alley and then
eastward, for the evident purpose of
making it appear that the car was
being taken in that direction as shown
by the tracks made by the wheels of
the car. About 2:30 the following
morning telephone call to a Union
town (Pa.) garage from point a
short distance east of that town re-
questing the services of a wrecking
car was received, the message stating
that wreck had taken place when a
car had collided with a telephone pole.
A State trooper accompanied the gar
age man and after an investigation
placed the driver of the car and a
companion under arrest, charging
them with driving a vehicle without
proper authority. Later it developed
that the wrecked car was the property
of Mr.. Bender and the men are now
being held in the Uniontown Jail for
action on the part of the Maryland
authorities. The identity of the oc-
cupants of the car has not been learn
ed both of the parties evidently being
of foreign birth.

COOperatiOn.

Now let's all pull together and work
for a better and bigger Park. We
should not be content to let well
enough alone. We know there are
some advocating that policy. But that
won't do. Even if we can't accom-
plish this season all of the bigger
things we have been advocating, yet
we can make the community atttrac-

This being Lent, we thought we
would give up complaining this week.
We may cease altogether, although
we still have subjects enough on file
to last until midsummer.

Calls Bluff!
 That's Why Mckinney Is Visiting Juneau

c. T. Mckinney, former Assistant District Attorney at Seattle, who was a passenger from Seattle on the plane Juneau, arrived here last Friday, believes in calling bluff.
 Anscel Eckmann, pilot of the Ju- neau, was a guest of Mir Mckinney at the Breakfast Club at the Olym- pic Hotel in Seattle when he was south early last week, other guests being Mayor Frank A. Edwards and other equally eminent men. Mir. Eckmann was called on to make a speech and, not being prepared, he expressed his pleasure at being at the breakfast, and said, that as he was Mir. McKinney's guest, in re- turn MT. Mckinney would be his guest on the flight to Juneau leav- ing Seattle Wednesday.
 After the breakfast, MT. McKin- ney rushed to MT. Eckmann and said: When do we leave? I'm talk ing you up on thatP'
 MT Mckinney will remain hero until the next trip south of the plane, probably the middle of the week.
 MT. Mckinney declared it had been fine trip and was most en- thusiastic about Alaska, the plane Juneau, and it's pilot.

to make his matches.
Meanwhile the wordy battle be-
tween Schmeling and Bulow contin.

Schaefcr was at his brilliant best

middle Of good runs with chances Of
overtaking his opponent, he lost out
by touching the ball. one time with

ker, world champion chess player, be-
lieves that the higher the develop

ascendancy of the intellectual and
spiritual over the merely physical. AS
an example Of his theory he cites the
difference between Jim Sullivan and
Gene Tunney.
About forty years ago the brawny
sullivan was the idol of the boxers"
Lasker says. Nov the intelligent
Tunney has taken his place. Sulli-
van knew how to slug with the ap-
pltcation Of all his strength. Tunney

nance Of the intellectual in other

His Showing Refutes Argu.
ments that Europeans Are
Public S|eepers'
SLOWER THAN DEMPSEY
Carries His Hands Higher
and Hooks Less; Straight
Right Is Fi1isher

New York, Feb. 14.-(AP)-Max
Schn,eling, Germany's gift to the
cauliflower industry, is causing no.
ticeable CONSERVATION in circles pu-
gilistic.
This husky with his uncanny re-
semblance to Jack Dempsey is ruin
ing the local theory that European
Fighters spend their off hours prac-
ticing plain and fancy dives. Herr
Schmeling has remained painfully
erect throughout his American bouts,
to the humiliation of his opponents.
unaccustomed as they are to public
sleeping.
Has Become Menace
Herr Schmeling has become a
menace. People are not forgetting
that the Davis cup, like my bonny.
lies over the ocean. People are
musing that even so American an
institution as the heavyweight title
could be taken away. So loud has
been the rumbling that Madison
Square Garden has taken over the
invader for the next two years.
He will fight in April, according
to announcement. If successful, he
will meet other young men. Herr
Schmeling will be given q chance
to make good in a large way. A
menace from other lands is always
good at the box office, in spite of
their unsuccessful forays in the
past.
Schmeling copies Dempsey's ring
style fairly closely. 1t is explained
that he studied fight films Of the
mauler in Germany. The weaving
bobbing attack Of Dempsey is there,
9 shadow Of the Dempsey scowl is
there, the beetle browed glover is
there, but it is done in slow motion.
In repose Max looks like Dempsey.
In action, Max looks like somebody
trying to look like Dempsey.
Carries Hands Higher
He carries his hands higher, comes
in slower, hooks less and has
straight right for a finishing. blow.
He hits hard and has shown in his
fights over here that he can take
plenty. Joe Sckyra did his best but
lost in ten rounds. Pietro CORR went
horizontal in the first two minutes,
and Johnny Risko was battered so
fiercely that the referee stopped the
argument. Joe Monte was the first
sacrifice.
Altogether, the young man from
Hamburg seems due for place in
the spotlight this year. He is being
unofficially mentioned for a match
with the winner of the Sharkcy-
Stribling fight. In the meantime he
has returned to his family heath to
brush upon his English and his
punches.
