BRADDOCK TO
MEET GE MAN
IN FEBRUARY

NEW YORK. Aug. 20. UP) -- The
Jimmy Braddock-MaX Schmeling
heavyweight championship bout
may be shifted from New York to (
February setting in Miami, Fla, 50
Braddock can recover from what
has been diagnosed as arthritis, it
lppeared today.
The southern winter locale was
suggested after DR.. Fred Albee, na
tionally known bone specialist and
neutral" physician named by the
New York boxing commission, said
the champion was suffering from
arthritis in the little left finger and
both elbows. The physician said
Braddock would need several weeks
treatment and couldn't fight before
mid or late October at the earliest
Promoter Mike Jacobs of goth
Century and Promoter James J.
Johnston Of Madison Square Garden
took favorably to Schmelings sug-
gestion.
Braddock's ailment and the revel-
alton that he hadn't signed a con-
tract for the proposed late Septem-
ber meeting at Madison Square
Garden bowl left a tangled problem
for the boxing commission to un-
ravel tomorrow.
Joe Gould, his manager, said he
would sign to defend against the
German on any date the commission
designated. But Gould was sure the
commission would heed Dr. Albees
advice.
The Louis camp had a raft OF
offers as result of the Brown Bomb
er'S three-round knockout of Jack
Sharkey. Jacobs said he'd probably
accept two of them if the Braddock-
Schmeling bout goes through. But
if it should develop that Schmeling
and the champion do not meet at
all, he might stage a return scrap
between Louis and Schmeling in
New York Or Chicago.

Cousin Roberta, how many years,
Through your laughter and your tears,
Have you sat alone, at night before
that sewing machine.
Save for the oldest Curly-head
Who, though ready, now, for bed,
With little boy usefulness tries to
grasp life and all it means!
remember, when quite young,
Listening to the songs you'd sung
With plans for rearing eight nice
stalwart sons, myself.
But that was in the long ago;
And I enthusiastically know
What it takes to guide eight boys in
physical and i'll mental health.
Cousin Robert was not strong:

They are cut one by one as the car

The Gentle Art Of Carving

When the man of the house does the
carving at the table his wife can Of
fer one form of assistance for which
he will be most grateful, especially
during his first efforts at carving for
company dinners. And that is when
she tactfully encourages general con-
versation so that attention is diverted
from the carver's task. It's very diff
ficult to be neat and deft when sill
ence settles about the table and all
eyes are focused upon the man with
the carving knife. No wonder he is
tempted to give up the job! In more
favorable circumstances he is likely
to feel very proud of his skill.

And, of course, it was hard to get on.
And he could pick up a few pennies
fiddling at the old square dance.
So you spent your evenings with your
inexpensive lace
And the cunning baby face

terrain Manse.)
The story continued: Through the
elastic force of spring, the decline

most of all
You've wiped away many a lonely
tear;
And like the real mother of any child;
You've hid, with a joke and smile,
Many an existing fear.
Cousin Roberta, you are gray now,
Profoundly wrinkled is your brow.
Soon, they say the young no more will
know that peculiarly colored dress,
If of Youth you are still part
That gracious kingdom enshrined
within your heart
At least, it loneliness.
After all, the years have flown;
The little ones into old ones grown.
Time has mellowed the things you
loved and you,
But, Cousin Roberta, before you go
away,
Promise to allow your spirit stay;

PREACHERS UNION
By ParsOn Jack

Preachers Union of Pocomoke,
Composed of four funny folk,
Met on last Monday morn;
In the study of Parson sgd,
Where, I'm confident, we did
Each preacher, elbow his horn!"
Course, we started out all right,
Sober, serious, solemn sight
AS we did cast our votes;
Ditto won for president
In which office he has spent
Some year-Read the notes.
Parson Jack was made the scribe
Though he did not, with them, jibe
When he was made their choice;
He discovered-'twas no use
To rip out words of vile abuse
He uttered not voice.
Sermon of Thanks this year will be
At ten thirty in the M. P.
On Thanksgiving Day;
And again it fell my lot
To be Johnny on the spot"
With what I need to say.
After Christmas-Week of Prayer
All the preachers will be there
Wherever we may meet;
Visiting parson will be heard
Speaking from the Holy Word,
Your hungry soul to greet.
Other things we did discuss
Just among the four of us
That I should not here hint;
When the time is opportune
And I think it will be soon
I'll put the news in print.

NIGHTGOWNS are said to mas
querade frequently as evening
frocks, and we think that the model
shown here could almost lead a
double life, for it is on the popular
and lovely Directoire lines. The
fabric is ninon in a delicate tearose
shade and the trimming is satin to
match. Bands of the satin criss-
cross under the bust, tying in back
in a bow with long streamers. The
gown is made to be worn either of
the shoulders as sketched, or it can
be worn covering the shoulder.
Tiny pin tucks shape the bustline
and more pin tucks define the
