The hills were painted' now by- the sun's rays, with, green sheens on the highest ridge tops,' and patches of white and yellow flowers — the primitive flower- colours — were everywhere.

MERRY MENAGERIE et,e94iner 4.11 "It's greener, all right, but it's phOoey—spinacht" Terry McGovern was a little poker-faced Irishman with a violent temper and murder in his fists. Even his best friends whispered that he was "crazy" and that it was suicide to argue with him. • In the ring, Terry was savage; practically immune to punish- ment during the heat of battle. He fought like a charging bull, with lowered head, he ripped away at his terrified victims un- til they either dropped to the floor or quit. All of McGovern's fights were small-sized wars. But the one that stands out above all the rest when it came to sheer wildness and brutality, Was his three , round slaughter of the clean-cut lightweight champion of the world, Frank Erne. It was a non-title bout even though both men held world, championships; Terry was featherweight king. Before a sell-out crowd at ' Madison Square Garden, New York, on July 16, 1900, McGovern' proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that he was the greatest fighter, pound for pound, in the world. In ,fairneeS to the lightweight champion, however, it must be remembered that Sam Harris,. MeGovern's shrewd'manager, in- sisted that Erne make 128 pounds. Considering that Frank's best fighting weight was 133, the,peeling off of that extra five pounds weakened Erne consider- ably. Because of his sapped energy, Frank realized he would have to try for a quick knock- oUt. He altered his normally brilliant defensive tactics to that °La purely offensive slugger. But it was Terry who set the pace and had the better of the argument from the'very begin- ning. Only once for about a minute in the second round, did Erne appear to have a chance, and that was when he tried to box McGovern at long range and succeeded in landing a few left- hand punches on Terry's nose and jaw. The little fellow was plainly trying to test Erne's punching capabilities prior to beginning the onslaught which eventually brought matters to a crisis. McGovern fully realized his, inability to box with Erne. He knew that his only salvation lay in fighting aggreSsively and fiercely at all times:, He pun- ished Erne badly in three rounds of fast fighting, splitting his nose, cutting his mouth and doing' terrible injury with body blows. Only the weight conditions can be offered as an e' *excuse fo • Erne's defeat, but after the nean- nee in which.,McGovern per- formed there is abeolutely doubt about ihs ability to have beaten his opponent at any weight. Terry never allowed Erne to have a moment in which to show his well-known cleyerness and science, but he was on top of him and after him at every stage of the game, raining in blows that were simply marvel- ous in their power and irresist- ible in their effect. Erne used his left, hand with the best re- sults, but though he landed it flush upon the jaw and in the stomach on several occasions, it had little or no effect upon Mc- Govern, who, in spite of every blow that Erne landed, kept charging back. The first round had scarcely begun when McGovern showed that he was the better hitter and the faster fighter. He rushed incessantly, using few straight blows, but depending principally on heavy swings which he aimed for the head. He put Erne upon the defensive almost immediate.; ly and drew the blood from Frank's nose. McGovern kept on with his relentless tactics and twice more pounded his man down until he was virtually helpless. Rather than risk the chance of having their man in- jured seriously, Erne's seconds interfered by throwing in the sponge, which under the cir- cumstances was proper, writes George. Roberts in The Police Gazette, The lightweight cham- pion was inconsolable over his defeat and seemed disinclined to talk about the fight. To his intimate friends he said "McGovern is a great fighter, the best the world has ever seen, and under Vie eondalone, of this match I Must acknowledge him my master. I was fairly whip- ped and that's all there is to it The fruits of my years of light" ing in the ring are gone, and have been defeated, by z lad Who le certainly strong and clever, Was f weak at the weight? Well, yes, I rather think I was. Mind you, I. don't care to discuss or belittle Mc- Geyer/1'e eictoky. But all losers have excuses, I have only one, and that is that I undertook to do more than could do. I only weighed, l261,(2 pounds today, and I did not have to try very ,hard to get to 'this scale, for I had little superfluous flesh to take off. I, was not in what consider to be my best condi- tion,. McGovern reached my jaw often, but it was the body blows that really licked Me. "I do not care to assume Ellie's title and defend it," said. McGovern, "for I am a feather- weight and that is good enough just at present. If,however, Mc- Fadden, O'Brien, Gans or any of the other lightweights want to fight me I will take any of them on at 128 pounds, ringside, the same conditions that prevailed to-eight. I weighted exactly 121 pounds when I got into the ring and was not as strong as have been. in other contests. I went after Erne from the start with the idea of beating him down, as. I knew this was my best estyle of fighting. Still I did not expect to see the fight end so quickly, and am overjoyed at the result, Erne is a game fel- low and put up a hard fight, He did not knock me down in the first round . I slipped down and was not at all hurt. Erne hit me while I was in that position, but it was an accident and I would not be justified in claiming any foul. I am going to"take a good, long rest now."

One Inventor Who Didn't Cash hi Tests are now being made with a wonder spray which Arill make the lighest, pastel-coloured carpet safe from muddy feet; dark, unsightly splodges will simply brush off. Secret of the spray is the magic substance silicon, which is resistant to heat and cold and repels moisture, It is already be- ing used in special car and floor polishes, and fabrics of many kinds. It was a British scientist who, fifty years ago, discovered sili- cones and gave the fruits of his discovery to the world. It's a good thing he can't see Britain to-day—paying away m u c h- needed American dollars for permission to manufacture sili- con products in Britain! Wide-awake Professor Fred Kipping saw that his invention, a non-burning, damp-spurning chemical cousin of the glass family, would one day revolu- tionize industry and benefit all mankind, Silicon-treated garments resist the wettest thunderstorm. One shake—and they're dry, Soon, car paints are coming Which, thanks to the silicones, Will never need polishing. Sprayed on walls, another silicone pro- duct eendere there impervious to moieture.

Wiped around pets' and pang it prevents the sticking of food that adds tiresome min- utes in washing up. Yet al-tether offshoot stops chewing gum troni being too sticky! Every day nets uses are dise .Why Grow Vegetables? We all know the old argu- ment about how much cheaper it is to buy vegetables at the cor- ner store instead of growing them in our own garden, ,That may be true in some cases but lust the same there is one thing that cannot be bought anywhere and that is real.' garden fresh- ness. To get top quality there is only one way. The vegetables must be grown right at the kitchen door, The reason is simple. Most vegetables, and especially things like peas, corn, beans, car- rots and even spinach start to deteriorate within a few hours after they are picked, No matter how carefully we pack, they soon start to lose some of their garden freshness. Because this is so, many people even with tiny gar- dens, try to have a small plot for vegetables tucked away somewhere, And it is literally amazing how many good meals can be produced from a bit of land only a few yards each way. Of course where the garden is weewon't try to grow our winter's supply' of p,otatoes, or very much of the bulky things like corn and squash. But even a 12 foot row of beans, spinach, carrots or beets will produce a lot. Most of these things can be grown in rows only a few inches apart and we can get more out of the plot' by alternating rows of the bigger things like carrots, beets and beans with smaller things like lettuce, radish and onions. We can also have two crops, one early and one late, and we can spread out the sow- ingsLlong. thatso something fresh and new will always be coming Try Something New The gardener who gets the most pleasure and value, out of his flowers and vegetables is the explorer type, lie is not content with just planting the same things year after year. True, he does stick with what he has found best and most suited to his own particular garden .and tempera- ment but he also makes defin- ite -practice of adding something r,ew each spring. Before he com- pletes his seed order, he scans the pages of the catalogue and selects at least one flow and one vegetable he has never tried before. In this way he adds fresh interest each season and becomes acquainted with some valuable finds both among flowers and vegetables. It is pos- sible, of course, to have a satis- factory and showy garden with the old favorites and standbys, like nasturtiums, alyssum and petunias and zinnias among the flowers and peas, carrots, beans, beets, corn, lettuce and radish in the vegetable garden. But, by confining ourselves to these alone, we are missing a lot of pleasure and a lot of fine meals. There are at least 25 different vegetables that can be grown in almost any garden in Can- ada and probably a hundred flowers. Power Saves Backs In recent years, as suburban gardens have become larger and ' small motorized equipment more efficient and fool-proof, there has been an enormous increase ire the use of power garden equip- ment. Power mowers, small garden tractors are not at • all expensive and they eliminate a lot of tedious hand work. As well they are interesting to tinker with and operate. Equipped with these, one can look after an acre or so of lawn and half an acre of vegetable garden and still have plenty of time for fishing, golfing, or loafing. With power equipment as well as hand variety, it is important to get something suitable, Too many people seem to think the bigger the better. They forget that large tractors and wide power mowers may be more dif- ficult to handle especially in turning, In stead of getting a tractor big, enough to plow, it is usually better to get some- thing smaller and easier to handle and hire someone with a standard tractor to do the once- a-year plowing job. eeVeted.
