When you feel like fihtinn count
ten. Not neccswirily to give your
wrath n chance to cool off, but to
locate your adversary's vulnerable

Now comes n scientist who says
that "the wotld will be destroyed
by dissipation into invisible corpus

pened Teddy on Nov. 8th.

The lid has fallen over St. Johns
and the fight fans of the city of the
apostles are sitting in sackcloth and
ashes today, wondering how in the
world they arc going to pass the
time away December 16, when the
St. Johns Athletic club had planned
to give them some more fistic gaiety
in the ring.
From some source, ns yet not
made public, but believed to have
been the Sheriff's office, the tip
went out to the promoters of the
scraps that the next time anybody
pulled n glove on and crawled
through the ropes in St. Johns he
would become an inmate of "Hob"
Stevens' strong box. It is said that
the officials even had a hard time
preventing themselves from arrest
ing the promoters after the last
bouts, but it seems as if the crusa
ders finally said thev would be snt
isfied to let the past go if "nothing
doing would be the motto of the
club hereafter.
It will not only be the motto. It
will be the battle cry. When that
tip reached St. Johns there was sue!
a scurrying among the backers of
the game to get out from under that
there was hardly anybody left in
sight with courage to announce that
the bouts were off. lelegram.
The above can be taken as a ca
untd. The athletic club professes
to know nothing about it. No
event had been scheduled for Dee
16. The state Inw, we believe, per'
mils 15 round glove contests, Un
til this law is violated the sheriff
can do nothing. And this law has
not been broken in St. Johns. Ten
rounds with 110 decision has been
the limit set by the club, and has
iccri strictly adhered to. No, the
loxing game is not dead nor has
the lid been placed upon it in St.
Johns, so the club affirms.

member of the union aud pottiihl)
some of their friends knew about it
-and why the .silence. It was so
good that now we want all to know
it was this:
In the absence fioin the city of
our beloved president, Mrs. J. C.
Scott, a surprise was planned (or
her and it was decided to meet at
her home and pieseut her with a
certificate of life membership in the
state W. C. T. U.. together with a
euid in Kin which was printed a list
of the names of the donors. In
honor of the occasion Mrs. Mallet,
president of Multnomah county V.
C, T.U., who is an able seaker,
was invited to be present. Mrs.
Mallet first gave us a very interest
ing talk on the work that we could
do, after which she made a very
eloquent presentation speech, and
Mrs. Scott, although much affected
rusiouded in her usual aide manner,
ami let me add, Mis. Scott was not
the only one alfected, as tears were
shed iu nearly all arts of the room.
Miss Lillian Perkins, St. Johns'
able elocutionist, favored us with n
very appropriate reading. Hie at
tendance was large and each lady
brought cither fruit, nuts or mot
delicious homemade candy. The
large variety of fruit with the lem
onade which we found awaiting us,
formed a most dchirahle luncheon
which was served after the program
during the social hour. 1'. C.
