And the weather in important in Wash ington. The liiii'iiing question is not about the tariff, or disarma ment, or Ambassador Harvey, but has summer really started. IaII senatorial signs indicate it hasn't. For example, Senator Thomas is no longer I here. For many years the Colorado senator v,ns official harbinger of the dog days. When he discarded his iron rray toupee and entered the chamber with his pink dome shining un blushingly,' everyone knew it was time to discard flannels on the in side, and drape them on the surface. Senator Thomas was as infal lible as the moon. And another weather vane, very vain, is missing. Senator J. Ham Lewis always welcomed summer with grey silk suit, salmon-pink silk shirt and turkey's egg ernvata, to match his whiskers. Hut there is no J. Ham. The Illinois senator is somewhere in the vicinity of the lilaekstone, which is in Chicago. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge is particularly worried. The Massa chusetts senator has never been n specialist on the weather; he has left such primitive affairs to the democrats. Hut now there are no demoerats,: at least none to speak of, certainly none responsive to the sunshine. So what is Henry Cabot to do? When summer comes he always puts on a white waistcoat stiffly starched, over a stiff, boiled shirt, surmounted by a choker collar. Has the great climac teric arrived? Henry Cabot Lodge doesn't know, the only thing in tho world he doesn't know. In the House it is different. I'nele Joe is weather dictator over there, the only portion of his former dictatorship left. In April he re leases one button on bis vest, in May one each week, and when sum mer has actually arrived, he throws his vest into the discard and ap pears in his galluses. So the House is easy in the weather line. Hut metoriologieal conditions are not the same in the upper chamber, they never are. Particularly, with the presiding officer, such an im ponderable factor. For Calvin Coolidge of Northampton, Massa chusetts is in the chair. Now Calvin is not only ealvonistie, he is cool, very cool. Moreover, he almost never talks. So even if there were an embryonic democratic weather vane, said vane would not be able to understand him. Even Senator Thomas might have contracted in lliuinza, had he. doffed his toupee in Calvin's presence. Therefore, an anxious world observes the senate climatically all it sea. In the good old days, the Democrats announced the weather tuid also adjourned for summer Vacation. There is no summer, and there is no vacation this year. Should the Democrats be called back to restore normalcy? Might oiie suggest, the mutter be postponed for the present and be till) sub ject for debate three years from next November. (?ipplin$RhimGs 1 Walt Mason EVENIIja HOURS. THE day with its worries is ended at last, its troubles and hur ries ore things of the past; the sun has descended, the night shadows close, tho evening is splendid,' it brings me repose. All day I was drilling and sweating around, ami mowing and milling, and pawing tho ground; I weeded the onions and wrestled with trees until I had bunions on fingers and knees. t And oft in my ((filing I murmured, "By James! What profits this moiling? What good are men's games? We labor and labor, and labor some more, till Death with his saber comes up to the door. We're plowing or hewing or building a. wall; what good are we doing? What use is it all? We fill up the hollow, wo drain out tho weir; and people who follow, won't know we were here." And now in the gloaming my rest is so sweet, I think of my roaming around in tho heat, and know that it fitted my soul for this hour, mid toil is acquitted of charges so dour. , I carried my burden until the day's close, and this is the guerdon a tired man's repose., BABY DRAMATIC CRITIC INTERVIEWS MARY P1CKF0RD ON M SKI if ; It: W3 'y 'Ivfl 4 S V 7 MM LOS AXOELES, Juno 11. Guy Prii'P, J i., America's you nffesi d i u niatlc critic, claims tho unitiuo dis tinction ot being the first newspaper man to sit on Mary PU'kford's lap, while obtaining an interview.

"Goo-rrr-as-h-h ?" questioned, Price Junior, as soon as he va comfort ably settled on Mary's lap. "No, I'm sorry," answered Mary,' "but I haven't any little girl or boy for you to play with. Won't I do?" 'Burr-r-ug-:t-goo-a-goo. Er-erer-hmmmmm." - , . "Why, tho idea. He wants to know if I intend to have a playmate for him the next time he sees me," confessed Mary blushing. "I refuse to answer. Ouch! He's got hold of my hair," cried the act ress. "'Please stop pulling so hard on that curl I'm dreadfully sorry, but Doug and I both hope so sometime yes, I'll tell you the very first one, only please r-nice boy." ( "Won't you come up for bread and milk some afternoon with Doug and me?" the "movie" star asked. "Yum-yum-yummy-yumm," cooed Price, Junior. "And then you can have your after noon nap on my very own bod. Would you like that" said Mary, her golden curls all tousled. "Mmmmmm-mnimmm," hummed Price, Junior, contentedly.

REDDY TAD'S TID BITS ON WORLD SPORT The Fox and the Bulldog This photo of Jim Cor hot t and Jack Dompsey, taken recently at Atlantic City, is a- wonderful picture, showing the two distinct types in'the boxing game. , . On tho loft you see Jim Corbctt, the first heavyweight champion under the Marquis of Queensberry rules. Ho was the man who made cleverness , the greatest ring asset. It was Corbett who sent brute Btrength and bulldog tactics to the reur. Before that, under Uindon prize ring rules, the man with the thick neck, the short nose and the strength of n hull ruled the roost. Corbett proved that was all wrong. He knocked out tho hero of that style of fighting and made the brainy fight er tho king. . i Look at, the picture again. Look at the noses of Corbett aiul Dempsey. Corbett has the long nose of the fox, Dempsey the short noso of the bulldog. Our greatest boxers and ring mas-toi-B havo had long noses. There wore Tommy Kynn. Kid McCoy, Jack Demp sey (the Nonpareil), Ahe Attell, and Bombardier Wells. Today we have Georges Carpentlor and Benny Leon ard. , Our grentcst Bluggers have had short noses such as adorns Dempsey. There were John L. Sullivan, Jim Jef fries, Hob Filzslninions, Terry JleGov ern and Kid Lavigno. in tho coining buttle the long and short noses will meet. Js the clever mun to rule, or the bulldog? al and didn't hurt a bit, and his being shaded by Joe Jeanette in a fifteen round go (at which Joe was compelled to weigh in at 175 pounds). Up' could j nave muiie just us good a showing against Jeffries, Johnson, Dempsey or Harry Wills (if he made them weigh in low enough). ... Then, to crown It all, he deliberately avoids meeting Fred Fulton and Frank Moron. No ono can blame him for avoiding, Fulton, who is a whalo against a man he thlnkB he can lick, but, Ye Gods, what do you figure will he the effect on the morale of a man about to meet Jack Dempsey, of duck ing Frank Moran on the ground of .be ing too dangerous. Burntim was right. PRO BO.N'O PUBLICO.

Here goes: Why Carpentier? , He licked a few dubs like Beckett and Wells, outpointed a few fair mld dlewelghts like Willie Lewis, Harry Lewis, and Jeff Smith In twenty-round fights, und was badly beaten by Klaus and Papko. . , , His best performances were his vic tory on a foul over Gunboat Smitlf". when the Gunner was beginning to make things hot for him and the al leged foul was admittedly unlntentlon- W O O D !

Pretty soon the scribes will be writ ing about great knockouts. You"l read stories of punches 'i'HAT ONLY TltAVlOLLKD A FOOT. That's all apple sauce. As the bloke who never saw a camel before piped when he lamped one for the first time THEUE.AIX'T NO SUCH A.N'l.MAL. One writer recently stated that the first punch that dropped Willard at Toledo wns n. left that travelled only, a foot. The writer, sitting ,:t the ringside that day, saw Dempsey pull that very same left right from the floor. It not only travelled .one l'oot, 'but about four feet. A man MUST SWING In order to add heft to ihe sock. A ennnon ball dropped a foot wouldn't do as much damage as a ennnon ball dropped 100 feet. It's the same with u punch. Fltzsimmons was boosted as bavins knocked out men with n left that travelled six Inches. Kit, was ft no torious swinger. His punches usually swept through four feet of air before they landed. , Jeffries is also credited with knock outs with punches that travelled six and seven inches. Jeff was another terrific swinger. Ills' big left swung like the. boom on a yacht. He was always swinging. If you're nt the ringside watch, just for the fun of it. It's a million to one that a healthy swing will do the work.
