was the first to enter the ring and
received a generous welcome.

end a bath towel thrown over his
shoulders. climbed through the
ropes. The fans were muttering to
one another. perhaps speculating
as to whether the “unheard-of"
would last either one or two rounds.
When the refereocelled both to the
center of the ring. Moore's slight
chances of staying with Bell went
far below per the spectators thought.

Ciangl They met in the center of
the ring and the bout was on. The
first minute of exchange brought no
applause for Moore's work. everyone
thinking that it was "a flash in the
pen” and that he would soon fall
before the Park City battler. Moore
outpointed Hall in tho first round by
a greet margin end the fans began
to “warm up" to the stranger. At
the end of the second canto. the
applause was still greates- for the.
slim led in the green tights. so good
was his showing.

The third round brought still more
reel mixing than the previous two
innings end the Canadian was cheer-
ed to the echo. In the final round
both boxers extended themselves
but Moore had won every round thus
far and he merely held the advan-
tage end fought cautiously. The final
bell end the awarding of the decision
to the “unknown" kid brought thun-
derous applause. He went to his
corner and rested a few minutes. still
being cheered.

When the time came to leave the
ring. Moore received an ovation that
is rarely tondered to a fightcr in
Stamford. With a broad smile and a
wave t the crowd he Jumped from
the ring and was lost in the crowd.

STAMFORD. Aug. ll.——-

the late Warren Gamaliel Harding.
was attentively listened to by a

on out the
address was emphasised the hOmoly
good nature and fine sympathy or
the men who. so suddenly. loft thc
nation to mourn his loss.

Mr. Mcrritt said:

"My Friends:

"This is a family gathering: that is,
the community family of Stamford.
and it is one of many thousands of
such gatherings which are occurring
all over the United States today in
recognition of a. great tragedy and a
great sacrifice. As We look back in
history. and particularly in the his-
tory of our own country. it apcars
that in the dispensation of Provi-
dencm a great national crisis is often
accompanied by some great sacrifice.

“After the Civil War. the mayiyr
of that sacrifice was Lincoln: after
the Spanish War. McKinley; and now
it is Hat-ding.

“It is true that in the case of
Harding his death was not the rcsnll
of violence. but it is just as true that
his death was a sacrifice to existing
conditions and to his burdens. which
came to him largely as the result of
world and domestic confusion and
strain due to the war And it is‘truo
also that the death of those martyrs
has resulted in the benefit of the
country and humanity; because it
has focused the attention of the
nation on the character of the men
themselves. on their unselfish sac.
rifice of themselves. (to their duty.
and it has caused their fellow citi-
zens to consider their own ways and
to consider the public interest. It has
softened. asperities and .hes‘brought
the nation closer together. Except«
for the great and gentle character
of Lincoln in his attitude toward the
acceding state. and for the a tuds

iln vilili this life also. i believe
that in his cnmlui-t of public affairs
l’rcsidcnt Harding with the eye of
the spirit cruistnnily saw God. That
is. bocausc hi' was pure in heart he
has felt the transparent honesty of
God. You will note that everyone
who has come in contact with him
has fcli the thanspnrcnt honesty of
his character. None of his oppon-

—cvcr suggested that he did any-
thing or said anything cxccpt from
high and honest motives. Now this
honesty and purity of heart. which
will pcrmit'and cause any man to
see God. is the foundation and the
only foundation on which a better
world can be built.
