 It Is ever true that cirtue is re- warued. There are times when the reward seems overlong in coming; when it seems that the good are for gotten by fate, and only the evil prosper; but in the end justice is done.
 There is no one in our league to whom fate should be more kind or to whom fortune owes more than to R. Bumpem Bowen, the Bunker Hiss bruiser.
 She is ernest, sincere, hard-work- ing, upright, honest, industrious a paragon of all the virtues; but time went on and she was unrewarded.
 She was unrewarded, that is, until Monday night when just fate, nc longer able to hold out against her who was so deserving, finally saw tc it that she bowled 124, three points less than Doris Cosgrove's famous 127. but eminently satisfactory nev- ertheleSS.
