HAM TO
FIGHT IN BILLINGS

Gentleman Ham jenkins, who
gave a fine boxing exhibition here
on the Fourth of July by beating
up Alex Knaub of Billings, has
started serious training for his
fight with AL Webster at Billings
July p, according to reports in
The Billings Gazette.
The Jenkins Webster fray, for
ten rounds or less, is to be the
first match held in the outdoor
arena of the Billings Boxing club,
known as Roberts Half Acre"
on North Twenty-ninth street.
A program of preliminaries will
bring together several lesser lights
of the Billings area.
Webster, recently suffering
from a wrenched neck, was to be-
gin heavy workouts this week to
get in shape for Fridays encoun-
ter. Two summers ago at Mis-
soula, Webster took a drubbing
from the Denver Cannonball.

WHICH MAN ?

FROM where she sat in the stage
box between her sister and her
sisters husband, Sondra Kent
could e the two men whenever
the lights went up between the
acts.
John Anderson, very disting-
uished looking in the third row of
the orchestra, Was a trifle bored
even while he did best to be inter-
ested in the play, and polite to the
woman beside hem. Mark Merri-
man, in a not very good row of
the dress circle, was finding it
difficult to keep his eyes on the
stage because they turned so often
to where Sondra sat.
Sondra, nervous, undecided, I'M
happy, was turning over the most
momentous question of her life,
while Flora beside her disregarded
the play and criticized the audi
ence, and Flora's husband snored
peacefully, screened by the cur
tains.
Whenever the lights went up in
the theater Sondra looked critical
ly at John Anderson. Whenever
they went down again she thought
of Mark Merriman, and wondered
hopelessly why it should be posi-
bile to care so very much for a
man, and yet be quite determined
that nothing on earth would ever
induce her to marry him.
Merriman was %, good-looking,
CHEEKY, optimistic and penniless,
with a future even more hopeless
than her own, seeing that he had
nothing beyond his personality to
guarantee him a prominent place
in the long line of candidates all

AMATEURS
STIFF
FOR MOVIE

Hollywood, July 15-(AP)-
The desperation of hungry men
eager to risk their lives for a few
dollars and a meal has thrown
movie stunt men into competition
as fierce as it is pitiable.
1t has also retarded schemes for
an organization in the perilous
craft to standardize wages and
assure competence, thus lessening
danger of life.
Harvey Parry, who for several
years has jumped from cliffs,
wrecked automobiles, walked air
plane wings, dangled from sky
scraper roofs or taken beatings
from film heroes in prize rings,
was called the other day to skid
an automobile for a movie scene.
When he reported he found five
other men waiting in line for the
assignment.
Zone poor fellow begged for the
chance, asking only a meal and
five dollars" says Harvey. "The
regular price for the job is $50,
and this mar never had skidded
a a and had no idea how we
protect ourselves.
when | first started stunning,
I got $1,500 for walking the wings
and taking a parachute jump.
Now the price is down almost to
the ground.
Parry and other leading stunt
men advocate licensing of their
profession, not only to maintain
standards of pay, but to safe
the desperate from their
own folly. The times, however,
veto the idea.

THE FAITHFUL CHEAT
BY Ruby M. Ayres

ing to take his advice.
She loved Mark Merriman, but
she had no more intention of ever
marrying him than she had of
jumping off Brooklyn bridge.
THE result would be suicide
either way" she told herself.
So tonight she was trying to
make up her mind to ask Ander-
son to send him to the Congo.
She knew he would do it for her.
John Anderson was a dear, he was
like something warm and secure in
her life; if he had been free she
would unhesitatihgly have mar
ried him, considering that graft
tude and affection were a good
enough basis wherein to build a
future if love could not be includ-
ed in the bargain.
The play came to an uproarious
end, and Flora leaned over and
poked her husband.
wake up-for heavens sake"
she said impatiently.
Lomax came to himself with a
tremendous yawn, rumpling his
thin, fast grazing hair, and
stretching his big arms inele-
gantly.
, For a moment he stared at the
stage with blinking eyes, then me-
chemically he began to clap.
Good, very good" he laid
vaguely, regardless of the fact
that he had heard no more than
the opening chorus.
Put your tie straight and let's
get out before the crowd" his wife
said tartly and led the way out
of the box.
Sondra followed her, listlessly
dragging her wrap about her
shoulders.
She was SO tired of everything;
glancing at her sisters face she
wondered if Flora ever felt the
same.
Good looking" their father had
called them.
Yes, that was true enough she
supposed, catching sight of their
two reflections in a long mirror.
They we're very much alike, except
that Flora was darker, harder
looking somehow. There was some
thing about the almost insolent
beauty of her face that looked as
if she had met life squarely and
got the better of it to her own
tragic detriment. Her laugh had
an artificial note in it, and her
voice a sharper edge than before
she was married, and yet-Ben
Lomax adored her as Sondra knew
well, and only shut his eyes to her
Impotence and indifference be-
cause he was mortally afraid that
if he ever dared to mention it,
Flora would walk out of his life.
A block in the crowd brought
them to a momentary standstill
and Sondra looked at her own re-
Election.
She a smaller than Flora
slighter, with blue eyes instead of
brown, fair hair that fell naturally
into long loose waves, and a mouth
carved in rather disconnected
lines.
The crowd parted a little and
moved on, and Sondra found John
Anderson beside her.

NEEDLESS WASTE OF LIFE

Forty boys, according to the most accurate count We have Seen. were killed in football games dur ing the season just ended We are h thorough sympathy with those who would put an end to the sort or sport that takes so many young lyes needlessly.
 torty boys "butchered to make a Roman holiday!' Forty homes plunged into grief and mourning TOT their irreplaceable loss. For MnaI! To give pieasure to the crowos that pay to see a fighting game.
 we read with horror of the glad latorlal comDals in ancient Rome, when men fought to the death in tue arena while the blood-thlrsty popuIaee cheered the fatal stroke. what would We say il We knew one or our boys would be killed in every school or college football game! The nation would not for a moment tolerate slaughter in the name of sport.
 IL is unIar to blame the boys. Iouth Is always reckless and sensi- i've to any reflection upon its ~ourage and gameness. The blame IAust be paced upon school and cUlIege authorities who permit football under rules which make fatalities not merely possible but, as the grim record of the past sea- son proves, probable.

There is general regret over the dissolution on the last day of the year of the Canadian club. The hospitality of the Canadians was so genuine that Americans always felt welcome at the Club. Recent ly there has been a general exodus of the club members. At a monthly business meeting held on Christmas Eve it was found that only six ac- tive members remain and as three of these were soon to leave Wrangell, it was decided that the club should give up its quarters on the first of the year and be dis solved. Harry Eastman, the presi- dent and Wm. Ryan, vice presi- dent. left this week for the Atlin district where they will prospect during the cloming season. Wm. Reade. the ship builder, is now en- toying the bright lights in Seattle. The Canadian Club was deservedly popular and will be greatly missed in Wrangeli.

FIFTEEN YEARS AGO

Sometimes we think Wrangell's $ growth is too slow to be percep- tlble. We sigh for the good old days and compare past days with present ones, much to the disadvan- tage of the present.
 But when We read in the Eff teen Years Ago" column, an inter- view with Judge Thomas published in the Post-Intelligencer while Judge and Mrs. Thomas were guests at the Frye Hotel in Seattle, we realize that Wrangell has made a very decided growth
 Judge Thomas wished the reporter to know that Wrangell was no longer the one-horse town, about which the Seattle papers had dis played so much wit and humor, but that We now had two horses, one for the community's dray work and the other for the sawmill work.
 Then the judge said optimisti- cally, "So great is the prosperity of Wrangell that in the spring resi- dents aver. there will be need of a motor truck"
 Fifteen years ago there were numerous social affairs which the community attended almost as a unit Dances and lodge sociaIs with their card games, banquets and musical programs entertained a larger proportion of the popula- lon, perhaps, than such affairs now do. But, what about the town in general? Fifteen years ago, our one-horse dray did not do all of the towns transfer work.
