Fred Fires Challenge to Box for Wounded Yanks at Jess NEW YORK, Feb. 25.—Fred Fulton burled a defl and a verbal fusillade at Jess Willard today. The big plasterer, peeved at Willard’s criticism of hla record, bad a few caustic remarks to make. "So Willard refuses to consider me as an opponent, ehV” queried Fred. “Says 1 am a quitter, does lie?” “Well, I’ve had seventy-six fights, scoring fifty-six knockouts Os the otbei twenty fights I lost three by knockouts to Dempsey, Wills and PalzM, and the rest were no-decislon affairs. I boxed Dempsey at Newark under protest, as I was slck with a bad cold. I fought Wills, who has been dodged by all other white boxers, and received two broken ribs. What’s Willard done? “He fought Dempsey and quit sitting upright lu his chair. He ran out on Joe Cox. DOring bis career before and after becoming champion Willard was a poor record-maker. He has had only twenty fights and was beaten three times by the poorest heavyweights in the ring, men whom I knocked cut “Willard has been grasping and piggish in bis dealings, too. He discarded his manager when he became champion. Just at a time when he needed a manager the most. His self-conceit ruined him. He thought he knew it all when lie was matched with Dempsey and his cheap help lost htm the fight at Toledo as much as anything else. “Willard's statement that be knocked me down twice the time we boxed in an exhibition Is not tree. And if he is not still as piggish as he has alwaya been he will accept my challenge to box for the right to meet Dempsey, I will box him at Madison Square Garden or anyplace else, for any promoter who can make the match, the whole of the gate receipts to go for the benefit of the wounded soldiers of the United States. “I believe Willard and I would be able to draw a fine gate for the wounded boys, though Willard has been one of the poorest box office attractions we hare ever had At Toledo, you know, Demp say was the magnet, not Willard. “But if Willard will box me nothing will please me .better. My challenge stands a* I have put It here. All ~Le need do is to say the word. l'U be ready at any time. ’ Chicago Auto Head CHICAGO, Feb. 25. —Charles L.

Why I Come Back

/~\NE of the reasons why I to buy my hats here,” said a customer to us the other day, “is because your salesmen have a certain knack of picking suitable styles and colors. Personally, I don’t know much about it and it’s a comfort to be able to take home a lid and get the wife’s ‘Stamp of Approval’ on it right off the bat. Another thing, I find that no matter what I buy, a hat, or a cap or a derby, I am always sure of getting my money's worth in style and wear. I appreciate all this, so do other men. And that’s why I come back here every season.”

HE HIT the nail on the head. However, it’s merely the result of selecting the right men for the job, and using common sense merchandising methods. By common sense methods, we mean buying just enough stock to last throughout the season. This enables us to sell at a very’small margin of profit and keep our stock fresh and up to the minute in style. When wholesale prices are lowered, a reduction is made immediately in the retail price regardless of the original cost. We are not strong on “sales,” but we are mighty careful to give every man the fulTworth of the money he pays us.
