THE EVENING WORLD, MONDAY, MAY 30, 1921, FRANCE's Cai HERO CHALLENGER For WORLD'S SC 1, Unt CHAPTER XXXVv. , WAS very nervous when we lett Stanmore for London the night of the fight. I felt a strange fluttering inside and must con- that I went over very carefully y Shances in the meeting with the n'Y expected to give me the hard- st ight I ever had endured. My state of mind was commun) ed to my chauffeur, who was ac- lly, trembling as he assisted me to the automobile. I asked uim hat was the matter and he replied is mervousness was due solely to hope that I might win and not fear that I might be beaten. Scarcely a word was spoken as our ty was whirled over the roads pd into London. It was a very joomy journey. Even Descamps ald not put any cheer into the ride, b I was very glad when we f.nally ched the Olympia Hall and I gut ito my dressing room.

A mighty shout of welcome greeted me The lights dazzled me when | first entered, so that the Shout was a great roar as I stepped from the door into the arena., Thousands of people were present. They made a wall of flesh in front of me. I hopped over the ropes into the ring, bowing and blowing kisses while the spectators creamed. To my left there sat the Prince of Wales and I bowed to him, He gave me a smile of recognition. Beckett already was in his corner, but I gave him no heed. | sat down, with my head half-turned and imme- diately opened a conversation with Descamps, but I could see out of the corner: of my eye that Beckett was eying me closely. He was on his feet and walked about c@nstantly. The walk was aimless as were the glances he turned toward the audi- ence. He seemed to be detashed from the fight itself. It was evident that he suffered great agitation. 1 cailed Descamps’s attention to the aimless wandering of Beckett and found that he agreed with me. It was as though Bombardier Wells, with ali his nervousness, aguin faced me. He was all sensitiveness. ‘Tt is fine, eh, Georges? Two rounds and finis,’ T had no doubt that he was right My legs felt as if they were made of springs. I was absolutely master of myself. Only Beckett remained and T_studietié him coolly the while I listened to a speech from B. J. Angle, who addressed the crowd on the sub- ject of fair play and sportsmanship. There was quite an interval be- tween the time we entered the ring and the time the bell finally did clang, for this speech consumed con- siderable time. Beckett was a ~iant and fully the part of a heavyweight | ohampion. This and a hundred other thoughts flashed through my mind T left the corner and started out to dq battle with him. Dempsey came into my mind, along with wondering looked if I should beat this huge English- | man and then come to grips with the worl champion. Then I knew I would beat Beckett surely, and I began to wonder where / T would*meet Dempsey. Should I go to America? The picture of a ship with me aboard flashed through mv Hib as we went to the centre of the his discussion of what I should do to the world's champion The crowd that greeted me in Paris was a riot. Nothing else could de- scribe it. Leaving the grain at the Paris station I was sei; and kissed, deluged with flowers. Notes from women fell about my feet. “Vive Carpentier!” they shouted. You'd think I had just returned from conquering a nation instead of a man. It was all very wonderful, My coun- trymen were overjoyed to think their champion had again proved his supe- riority. Then came the preparation for the | trip to America. Everything etse was Put behind, except, of course, my marriage to Georgette Lasasser, a beautiful girl | had met while in the army. We were wed just before em- barking for America, on which trip) she, of course, accompanied me. We have been supremely happy. America has been very good to us. We were greeted by batteries of cameras. We have lived in a sump- |tuous hotel in New York. We have been treated with the ut.ost consid- eration at all points. I have no doubt | that I will find just as much pleasure |in the acquaintance of Americans as in the affection of their first cousins, the English.

Many of the roads which tap good fishing country are backward in this respect, but notable exceptions are the Northwestern aud the Canadian Pacific. The former wil! supply full information about fishing everywhere in the Middle Weat, and the latter has a corps of men who do nothing else but check up on Cana- dian fishing conditions, guides, camps and other useful information. Many American fishermen on their first trip into the Canadian lake and river country have been amazed at thé com- pleteness of the information supplied by the Canaiian Pacific Railroad, and have contrasted this policy with the rather indifferent attitude of the American roads.
