Herets Joe Sherry, jr., city fire
man, as he is today, and as he ap
peared as a prize-winning baby at
the age of three months.
Joseph Sherry, jr., fireman at sta
tion No. 4, Sixteenth and Izard
streets, got a good start when he
was but an infant.
He weighed 14 younds and eight
ounces at the time of his birth, but
the period 6f phenominal growth for
this big fireman 'was during the first
three months of his life.
After that, his development was
more gradual. He is a big man to
day, but his physical propensities are
not what might be termed phenome
nal. When he was three months old,
however, he was a wonder. He won
several prizes for being the most
handsome and most nearly physical
ly perfect infant in the state.
Fireman Sherry is 29 years old.
Last week in a fire at Sixteenth
and Clark streets . he distinguished
himself. '
With two feflow firemen, he was
holding a high-pressure hose dis
charging water into the third stpry
of the blazing building. And it was
a job for the three of them.

Clear Up Doubt
Says Western Trip Is to Urge
Republicans to Back Can
didate as Former States
man Would.
Chicago, 111., Sept. 25. (Special
Telegram) "As the sister of Col.
Theodore Roosevelt, there is a spe
cial reason whicri caused me to take
this trip to the middle west," said
Mrs. Corrine-Roosevelt Robins6n of
New York at republican national
headquarters.
"That reason is to impress upon
former members of the progressive
party in the middle west that I am
ubsolutely convinced that the colonel
would wish them to get in behind
the republican nominee, , as he did
in 1916, and put an end to what he
considered the most sinister influence
that had ever enmeshed a country in
its clutches. The people of the United
States know the influence of the
democratic party during the last
seven years." '
"By the frequent use of; the name
of Theodore Roosevelt,", continued
Mrs. Robinson, "the democratic
nominees are trying to confuse the
minds of former, progressives. and I
speak as one having authority and
would clarify the thought jo all fol
lowers of Theodore Roosevelt."
The itinerary in the middle west
includes Indianapolis, St.' Joseph,
Mo., Omaha, Minneapolis, Duluth
and then Mrs. Robinson will join in
Chicago the delegation of women
who are to visit. Senator and" Mrs.
Harding October.
"In my public address thus far I
have found that my audiences are
most interested in the Wilson league
of nations." said Mrs. Robinson.
"The people are beginning to realize
that without Americanization reser
vations, the Wilson league would be
a detriment not only to America,
but to the whole world.
