The Lights of a Great City

Suddenly a black thunder-shower rolls up over the city. Although it is mid-afternoon, lights are switched on in thousands of offices and homes until the towering city looks like an illuminated honeycomb. In many great cities huge Exide Storage Batteries in the central power stations are called on to supply current through the emergency. So powerful are these batteries, weighing hundreds of tons, that they xan supply millions of candle power. Nearly all the central station batteries in America are Exides. Exide Batteries are used in scores of ways to supply the current for the vast network of telephone systems; to light trains; operate switches and fire alarms ; to propel mine locomotives and trucks. When you need a new battery for starting and lighting your automobile,

the nearest service station can supply you with an Exide whose rugged power will add to your satisfaction in motoring and whose long life will prove a true economy.

LEONARD MAKES BOXING QUITE A BUSINESS Constantly Works at His Job Like Lawyer or Any Moneymaking Person.

International News Service Sports Editor. NEW YORK, March. Many are called but few are listening. That is not quite the way the Biblical quotation ran, but it serves as a twentieth century interpretation of a truism that has lived as long as life Itself. Speaking as one sport to another, we might express it this way: Many become champions, but few can stand prosperity. Bonny Jjeonard is one that can, largely because not only is he a master fighter but a business man. Leonard, in and out of the ring, constantly

works at his profession Juft as the

lawyer akes home his brief case at night that he may review and often correct his work of the day. It is the mediocrity who is satisfied to transact his business of boxing only when In the ring. WATCHED E.H MAUL Some time ago, Leonard remained over in New York for several days when he had a pressing engagement elsewhere In order to watch Charley White and Willie Jackson maul each other. He did not go to tho fight to be amused. It was strictly a business proposition. ''You see a whole lot of mistakes looking on from the ontslde that might be overlooked in the heat of battle," Is the way Benny explains It. "And it's a wonderful help to know these little faults and weaknesses an opponent has. It's like a checker player looking on at a game being pUiyed by others, probably as skillful as himself. He sees where they mako their errors. "1 remember what Joe Gans once said before a battle with Frank Erne. Joe studied Erne In action and then told Al Herford, his manager, that he would knock out Erne in a round or less. That sounded like the bunk, especially ince Erne had given Joe a terrific lacing about a year and a half before. Nevertheless, Gans went into the ring, watched Erne very carefully for a few seconds and then knocked him kicking.

"Gans afterward explained that in studying Erne he had discovered that Frank always feinted with his knee just before he cut loose with a lead. Joe watched for the feint and beat Erne to it." .. And there you have it. No gambling with tiie unknown quantity, no uncertainty as to the proper procedure, just a cut and dried business proposition. Many have seen fit to criticize Leonard for his reticence in Uddng on Iiv Tcndler in a championship bout. They seem to believe that Leonard feels he cannot make the lightweight limit and ho strong enough to "take" 'Tendler. Perhaps a modicum of truth can be found in this claim, but a more likely premise Is that Leonard realizes Tcndler is one of his hest s&cta, strange
