KILBANE GETS fl
WIN
FORTUNE
LOSE THIS FIGHT
Hawthorne's Old
Home Preserved
(By AMoelJt.i-d Fma.)
Cleveland. Sept. 10 When Johnny
Kilbane, world's featherweight cham
pion boxer, steps into the ring at
Dunn Field here on the afternoon of
Sept. 17 to face Danny Frush of Bal
timore in a twelve-round bout to n
decision, it will be the first time he
has defended his title since Jie knock
ed out George Chaney at Cedar Point
Ohio, Sept. 4, 1916.
Kilbane is" "to receive $60,000 for
liia end win, lose or draw or possi
bly more, as he is working on a 50
per cent basis. This is said to be the
largest amount ever guaranteed a
boxer below the heavyweight rank,
and very few heavyweights have re
ceived that much for a championship
match. Frush is to receive $2,500
his training expenses.
Kilbane was 32 years old last
April. Despite this supposed handi
cap, he is confident he will retain his
title. Frush is twenty-two, or about
a year younger than Kilbane was
when he wrestled the championship
from Abe Attell on February 22,
1912, at Vernon, Cal.
Although Kilbane's title has not
been at stake for five years, he has
fought any number of no-decision
bouts.
Frush is regarded here as his fore
most oDDonent. He has defeated
some of the best in the featherweight
division, and has a far better knock
out record than Kilbane. In his list
are several who went the limit with
the champion. One of these is Ar
tie Root of Cleveland, who came
rfancernuslv near winning' the fea
therweight championship in a bout
here a year ago when he landed
punch on Kilbane's chin, "only the

South Casco, Maine, Sept. 10 The
house on the shores of Sebago lake
here in which Nathaniel Hawthorne
lived as a boy and where he made
his home when he was attending
Bowdoin College, is to be preserved
as a community house." Citizens and
summer residents have just formed
a corporation for the purpose.
Robert' Manning of Salem, Mass.,
who owned thousands of acres of
land about Sebago lake, built the
house in 1814 for his sister, who was
Hawthorne's mother. Mrs., Haw
thorne had lost her husband at sea
and lived afterward in retirement.
Hawthorne was ten years old when
he came to the new house with his
mother, and tKls continued to be his
home until after his graduation
from Bowdoin College in 1825, when
he returned to Salem.
The building was occupied as a
boarding house for a long time after
the Hawthornes left it. Seventy
years ago it was built over into a
church for which purpose it has
since been used. It is a big square
structure of the colonial style of
architecture.
At the request of his uncle, the
boy Hawthorne kept a diary while
he lived here and these volumes are
now in the possession of Rev. Will
iam C. Norris of Willimantie, Conn.,
who is vice-president of the new cor
poration. They will be donated to
the community house.

"In a football game the men on

Coach Zuppke. "It is desirable that

Does Health Mean Anything to You?
CHIROP
RAGTIC
adjustings are a successful way of acquiring and retaining health
The man inbusiness for himself, finds tat he is not able to do
justice to his business when he is not feeling well. His health means
everything to his business. The man who is working for someone
else knows that in order to increase his earning capacity he must be
in good health. If he is not in good health he cannot turn out the
amount of work that his employer expects, and sooner or later it will
result in a decrease in pay or even the loss of his job. Therefore the
amount expended in acquiring and retaining health may be looked
upon as an investment that must pay big dividends.
While the immediate cost of a coufse of Chiropractic adjust
ing may seem a little bit too expensive, when you take into consid
eration what it means to your future welfare it amounts to almost
nothing.
If the average man or woman loses his or her earning capac
ity, life becomes a burden to him and his family. Be fair to your
self anyway.
