itber is out there, «oo. And I'll teil

To my disgust I found myself not
nly flushing at the rough praise the
irl had given me. but feeling a dis-
nct reaction in her favor. Was I
) spineless, I asked myself lndlg-
antly, that a word or two of per-
mal commendation would change
iy opinion of a person?
1 answered honestly In the affirma-
ve, for I began to feel not only a
ihtinct liking for this crude young
oman, but a deBlre to shield her
•om the disillusionment which was
jrely coming to her as a result of
er romantic interest in the pseudo
on Ramon.
"My father Is very experienced in
uergencies," I said, "and I am sure
sur friend will have all necessary
ttentlon. 1 will get my car out at

^mpous father.
He looked at me with such a meek
ttle expression on his face that It
ive me, and, 1 think, Lillian also,
a irresistible desire to laugh.
"I am afraid It will be too much
ouble for you to have the physl-
ans here." he said desperately.

"Look here. Dad." His daughter,

oke emphatically, ""Ve il be nome

(JAMF.8 MONDAY.
I former champion bantam, has caused
Lost Pet. a lot of speculation among the box-
^ ! ing fans of the country. It is alleged
'4 , *53i that I.ynrh's 'manager had entered
r,V into an agreement with Buff's man-
44 i<>4 ager to give the Jerseyite 40 per cent
4 4 4(' iv> of the receipts for his end in case he
;!l 6;! ; did not lose his title and that if he
30 6fi :i4'j jose ft bis bit was to be $30,000.
As the receipts fell considerably
Won Lost Pet. i s,lort of what was expected it is
63 ;i8 .683 claimed that Lynch and his manager
. 63 ii 6ti4 had to fork over $10,000 to make up
• 48 43 .637 I the nOf-'essary $30,000 for Buff, thus
. 48 46 .6ifl I being out practically $10,000 on the
!'• Ill m or ln °^®r words, paying
38 63 418 { ^ 10,000 for the crown.
i There seems to have been a sort of
"run-around-a-rosy" between Buff,
Lynch and Herman as regards the
! bantamweight title the past two and
. a half years. Not that there haa been
i anything wrong with the matches.
' but the commission wants to know
} by what authority the boxers bargain
for titles the—same as a merchant
would sell a lot of goods. Titles have
not changed hands iu other classes
with the rapidity with which they
have beeu won aud lost in the ban-
tamweight ranks.
Since Pete Herman of New Orleans
won the title from Kid Williams at
New Orleans on a point decision,
1917, there has bepn considerable
changing. Pete fought both Buff and
Lynch in 1919 and had a pretty good
line on their ability. In the early
fall of 1920 Herman and his man-
ager. Sammy Goldman, began ne-
gotiating with Charles D. Cochran of
London, for a match with Jimmy
viously lost to Lynch, December 22,
1920.
Herman was not very active for a
while, but on September 23, 1921, he
met Johnny Buff, who had won the
flyweight title from Frankie Mason
at New Orleans, February 11, 1921,
and now sought the bantamweight
crown. At the end of the fifteen
round battle Buff was given the ver-
dict over Peter, which made the
Jersey lad a dual champion. It was
a wonderful feat for Buff, consider-
ing that he was just hitting the 34
year mark. Nine months later, on
July 11, 1922, Buff dropped his ban-
tamweight title back to Joe Lynch
in New York City, at the new boxing
Bowl. The contest went 14 rounds
when Joe was declared winner on a
technical knockout, Buff's manager
tossing In the towel wben It became
apparent that Johnny was gone and
practically out.
Now the question arises, will
Lynch give Herman another crack
at the championship before he takes
on- soinc of the other challengers?
There are several after the title,
among them Carl Tremaine, Joe Bur-
man, Pal Moore, Eddie Anderson,
Midget Smith, and others. Of the lot
Tremaine seems to have the best
chance Just now, judging from re-
cent performances.

In reading ancient pages,
We frequently have found
The views of .so-called sages
Were morally unsound.
Devoid of inspiration,
Mere mischief-making cant
Is that old exhortation
To emulate the ant.
This bug, in legion numbers,
C eeps forth to put to rout
Our necessary slumbers
When we are camping out.
Upon our inmost clothing
He ventures to intrude;
We look on him with loathing
Partaking of our food.
The many-footed sinner
Culls not his meals from flowers,
But when- he wants a dinner
He helps himself to ours.
By conscience unimpeded,
Of decency bereft.
The man who does as he did
Would go to jail for theft.
To follow his example,
And steal all one can eat.
Would merely be to trample
The law beneath one's feet.
No good- example is he—
No theme for copy books—
Of course the wretch is busy,
But so are thieves and crooks!
