PAGE SIX MERE CHANCE LEAD PHRENOLOGIST SAYS HE WOULD HE iDE GOOD IN ANY WORK Argentinian Has Remarkable Or ganization for Strength and Endurance Analysis Shows not easilylntimidated Likely to Wait and See What Op ponent Does Before Becom ing Aggressor in Fight EDITORS NOTE:The follow ing scientific analysis of Louis An gel Firpo was made exclusively for The Times-Recorder and NEA Service by Jessie Allen Fowler, noted phrenologist. By JESSIE A. FOWLER Vice President American Institute of Phrenology. Firpo has a remarkable organi zation for strength and durabil ity. K'c has evidently come from an exceptionally sturdy ancestry. He is not the result of one gener ation, but ought to be able to trace his ancestral strength for many generations back. He has a remarkable strong motive temperament, which gives him a physique of intense power and endurance. He is guided largeyl by his perceptive intellect, and his mental keenness of vision is what will aid him in his work quite as much as his physical strength, for his perception of how to use his strength will come largely ■ through his scientific and observing qualities. He is broad between the ears, By securing your school books now you will avoid the rush later. If you wish to exchange your old books we will have to have same by Thursday.

He has the equipment in the i chin of one who possesses ex ceptional endurance. Thus he is not easily put off his balance and should be able to hold his own in many contests. His nose is broad and stocky rather than long, which is another indication of his will power and perservance. He is not easily intimidated; for he has very little fear, and his cautiousness is not large, though he has some foresight and capac ity to reckon things up, predict and see consequences. His motive temperament gives him his remarkable width of head over the ears; his width across the, temples, contributing constructive ability; and wirth over the eyes, which enables him too see system atically every detail of Ihings that interest him. He is also broad, between the eyes, which enables him to grasp a . situation and relatively recajll the form and size of things. When operating in a contest he will be able to analyze the relative strength of an opponent and he can gauge more correctly how much strength he will be called upon to use in defending his posi tion. His large locality also will aid him in understanding the probable attack or blows that will be dis astrous or difficult to meet. His organization is more . one calculated to defend a position rather than to attack, for his or gan of destructiveness Is larger than his combativeness. There fore, he likely will wait and see method his opponent is going to take, instead of being the aggres sor; just t"he same as in playing chess, one sometimes opens out with ‘one’s pawns, but at other times one keeps the little pawns for protection. He has a keen sense of order, therefore he is systematic and regular in his work, and is more more inclined to be scientific than many of his competitors. His analyatical power will aid him in every stroke he gives. He is not one who will waste his energy, but will be more inclined to conserve it. He is not one of the dashing kind of boxers. If his ears were larger, broader and longer, he would show more of the spectacular kind of work. But he has rather a delicate type of ear which he has inherited from his mother, or from his father’s mother; while his face is an indication of his inheritance from his father, or his mother’s father. His back head is also an indica tion of hi? resemblance to his pat ernal ancestry, while if it were round and full he would resemble his maternal side of the family. He could utilize his wonderful physique in other scientific ways besides boxing, and we believe that it is a mere chance that he has devoted himself to his present profession. eW judge this because he is not so full and broad behind the ears and combativeness is not so large in development as one generally finds in prize-fighters, like Jeffries, Corbet and others. - —— - - , BLECKLEY FARMERS VISIT AT CORDELE CORDELE.

Plrone 943 r THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER DEMPSEY LIUS 18 STAGE CH FRAME Iff Champion Likes to Play With Certain Friends, But He Also Likes to Win SARATOGA SPRINGS, Sept. 11.—Jack Dempsey likes to play cards with certain of his friends. He also likes to win. And when the gamps are on in camp, he is particular that he does win. The world’s heavyweight cham pion ddmits that he likes to stage a “frame-up” and then tell his fel low players how jie has put it over on them. He will practice sleight of hand tricks with the cards for hours in order to sneak over something during the progress of a game. He generaly has a mark ed deck around that he rings in unless his camp mates, all of whom are wise to the champion’s hobby watch him colsely. As the camp games are always for funs, with no money changing hands, the camp-mates get as big a “kick” out of the play as Jack does. While he was training at Atlan tic City two years ago for his match with Georges Carpentier, someone brought to camp a tiny roulette, wheel. Mild gambling was immediately in order. Finally Dempsey got the wheel and put it out of sight. It re appeared a few days- later and Dempsey an nounced that he had found a “system” to beat it. After he demonstrated this he told the camp-mates that he had tampered with the wheel until it would “do as it was told.” Rinochle, hearts and- “rummy” are Dempsey’s favorite games. r 'TTTTI r WALTER HIERS AND JACQUELINE LOGAN IN ‘6O CENTS AN HOUR’ To him who has faith and waits, all things- come. This is Walter fliers’ favorite adage. For in the Paramount picture, “Sixty Cents An Hour,” playing at the Rylan der on Wednesday, he, as Jimmy Kirk, is abused by the President of the Zavina National Bank. But his time comes. Shortly after the purchase of a narrow alley the bank, Kirk discovers that the wall of the bank extends a foot over his prop erty. It is a case of tearing the entire wall down and rebuilding at great expense or buying Kirk out. The bank president chooses the lat ter and the money is reluctantly handed over. Jimmy, now the possessor of considerable wealth, finds himself in o position to ask the daughter of the bank president to marry him and he is accepted readily enough, celebrating with one of Jenks’ sodas. The comedy in “Sixty Cents An Hour” is said to be fast and furious and the likable comedian has an excellent role. In the cast with V. alter Hiers are Jacqueline Logan, Kicardo Cortez, Charles Ogle and Guy Oliver. On the same program is being shown a Sunshine comedy, “Splitting Hairs.” Totfay’s attraction at the Inlan der is “Only 38,” a Paramount picture starring Elliott Dexter, May McAvoy, Lois Wilson and George Fawcett. ARGENTINI AN INTO RING KnksO' I am interested in golf but have never played the game. I read the accounts of the big tournaments with as much interest as a world series game but not neatly so in telligently. At various times I no tice the expression that this or that player gets a birdie on a certain hole or an eagle on the next one. Please explain the use of birdie and eagle?—R. C. M. In golf there is a par score for every hole. We will assume that a certain hole on a golf course meas ures 390 yards. The official dis tance for computing par is that all holes measuring from 251 to 445 yards are par 4 holes. To make such a hole in 4 would be consid ered perfect play—par. When a player makes a hole in one under par he is said to have scored a birdie. To play a par 4 hole in three would be getting a birdie on that hole. To play a hole in two under par is getting an ( eagle, as the making of a par 4 hole in 2. Please explain a “threesome” in golf? * In a threesome, one player plays his own ball against two playing one ball, as in a foursome.

H., Sept. 11. Significant changes tending to check the economic trend which has been sapping farm life have been brought about by county agent work in the interest of bet ter farming, according to a report by J. C. Kendall, director of co operative extension work in the University of New Hampshire. Tak-. ing as a basis conditions in Sulli van county, where in August ten years ago county agent work was first begun, Director Kendall points to numerous developments which he attributed directly and indirect ly to extension activities. ■ “In the first place, the spirit of aloof individualism has very largely gpne,” Mr. Kendall, says. “People in the old days used to go to meetings to scoff at the ag ricultural specialist; now they stay and ask questions. They used to , think it was a mistake to share their ideas on farming with each other; now they £et together and discuss ways in which they can co-operate to advantage. “But the advance has not beeh lone in spirit only,” he adds, and points to scores' of new houses built, according to extension recom mendations; to standard feeding; the testing of two score thousands of birds; and to hillsides of Mc- Intosh apple orchards destined to the axe and saved only by demon strations that the scab could be controlled. The building up of cow-testing asociations, the tendency toward better sires, hundreds\of alfalfa fields that yield three crons instead i of two, farmers exchanges which do an annual business in the state of $1,200,000 are all evidences of the movement, Mr. Kendall asserts. Substantial results in ' making farm life more desirable for young people and their elders alike are also observable. He points to bet ter balanced meals, more economi cal and attractive wardrobes, walls of more prepossessing appearance , I and kitchens with modern con- I venien’ces.

In addition, Mr. Kendall points' to boy’s and girl’s clubs and as serts that the significance of 2,- 000 youngsters training in various farm and home projects is not to be easily waved aside. REV. M. M. MELTON QUITS AS BENEVOLENCE PASTOR RICHLAND, Sept. 10.—Rev. H. M. Melton, who has been pastor of the Baptist church at BenevoAj lence seven years, has resigned take effect the last of September.
