XXVI. No 49. Staff Correspondence The Central Committee of Negro College Men, which was largely responsible for the first camp for training of colored officers at Port Desnes, was received by Secretary of the Baker at the State, War and Navy Building in Washington during the past week, and some rather startling disclosures resulted from the conference. ONLY 20% TO FIGHT The principal report of the Committee to the Secretary of War shows that only about 20 per cent. of the colored draufles are trained to fight, while the remainder are put in non-combatant divisions: "The present authorized combatant units (colored) do not more than complete the full divisional strength of the 92nd and 94rd divisions, (maximum number, 56,000). 157,000 Negroes have been called into the serup to June 23rd, and 80,000 since that date, making a total of 237,000. The proportion of non-combatant to combatant troops now is, therefore, 3.9 to 1." It was also asked by the committee that the "War Department live up to its policy of officering colored troops with colored company officers. 1150 OFFICERS SHORT "From 75,000 to 80,000 draftees (colored) are scheduled to be in camp by July 31st; constituting from 280 to 320 companies (reckoning 250 to company). With one contain, three first and two second lieutenants to a company, from 1680 to 1920 officers of the grade stated will be required for this contingent alone. (a) There are from 100 to 150 commissioned officers (colored) now available in the country—for the most part, second lieutenants lately commissioned from "Officer-Candidates." (b) There are no 'Officer-Candidates' now uncommissioned. (c) There are at present only 398 men (colored) in training in officer training schools. (Infantry 303, Camp Dodge: Artillery 95, Camp Taylor.) "Were all of these 'Student Officers' to be commissioned, the maximum number of officers then available would be 548. "The above stated facts show that: 1. Only 12 to 25 companies can be officered by the commissioned officers now available. 2. Were all the 'Student-Officers' now in training to be commissioned there would only be 388 officers additional, and these exclusively of the grade of second lieutenant. 3. There is, therefore, an immediate shortage of 1150 company officers of which the greatest lack is in "AGE" CONFISCATED Report reached on Wednesday that the New York "Are" best know of that city's weekly colored papers, was confiscated shortly after coming from the press Thursday. The paper had already been sent out to the newsstands and some of them had gotten into the mails when, it is said, orders from the Department of Justice were sent out confiscating the entire issue. An article commenting on the Jimrow arrangement at a baseball game at Camp-Dix, is reported to be the reason for the action of the Department of Justice. TO DO GREAT WORK AT NEW CHURCH BUILDING Chicago, Ill., August 21—A big comunity service and educational work 1 planned by Olivet Baptist Church, 27th and Dearborn streets. The congregation has recently purchased the home of a white congregation in 34th street. It will keep the old location as a community centre. A graded Sunday School, which will embrace classes from the kindergarten up will be a feature. The congregation has eight thousand and members, and its aim will be to reach many of those who have migrated here within the past few years. Prof. Nelson Williams, Jr., a public school principal, of Richmond, Va., has been asked to take charge of the work. He is a church worker, and has attended the summer school of Columbia University for the past 8 years. the grades of captain and first lieutenant; and a prospective shortage of about the same number for the next draft contingent; 50,000 of whom are already called for by August 5th. "It is evident that the requisite number of officers for the troops now assembled and assembling cannot be supplied from the present resources; therefore some exceptional plan further special training camp of larger quotas for O. T. C's) must be put in effect in order that the announced policy of the War Department be carried out." DOCTORS HELD INACTIVE. According to the Committee colored troops are being served by white dentists in the camps and in France, while at home 120 Doctors of Dentistry ready to work, are commissioned, but kept on the inactive list. I was understood that the reason given is that the Department does not find it practicable to have colored dental officers and white officers of the line in the same regiment. Reference was also made in the report to the fact that despite the shortage in physicians to do the sanitary work in the camps and back at home, medical doctors are being drafted and sent into the cantonments along with other draftees. Mention was made of Doctors Carmichael and Burton, of Washington and Doctor Boley of Baltimore. The following recommendation was made to the Secretary of War: "That the practicing medical and dental men, and graduating members of the Medical and Dental Enlisted Reserve Corps, now compelled to serve as enlisted men, be granted commissions under the regulation for commissioning men of these professions." COLORED NON COMS ASKED FOR. The exclusion of the labor units from the officers' training camps, and the practice of selecting white men for the offices of corporals and sergeants of colored troops was dealt with by a special section of the report. The committed requested: "That the colored non-combatant units, excluded from the officer training privileges, be allowed through the extension of training privileges to supply their own quota of non-commissioned officers; and that for the general good of the service, all of such troops be given at least one month's strictly military training before being assigned to their specific duties." BAKER SYMPATHETIC. Secretary Baker heard the Committee sympathetically, and promised an early consideration of the report presented to him. It became known after the hearing that already two weeks ago, steps were taken to give labor units some military training. TO SEND COMMITTEE TO BAKER Richmond, Va., August 20—The National Medical Association, which will meet this month in this city, plans to send a committee of physicians to Washington during the session to confer with Secretary Baker in person, and report the result of their conference back to the Association. The wider use of colored doctors for war work is said to be the subject of the conference. The Secretary of War and the Surgeon Generat will be importuned to commission doctors instead of sending them to the camps as ordinary privates. LOTT CAREX BAPTISTS TO MEST Rocky Mount, N.

Aug. 21—The army is still in need of chaplains. The ultimate plan is to have one for every 1,200 officers and men. It wants a special kind of chaplains—a sturdy, upstanding, brotherly man between the ages of 21 and 45—who care a good deal more about the welfare of soldiers than about distinctions in creeds. At Camp Zachary Taylor, near Louisville, Ky, the Army is conducting a school for chaplains. The course covers five weeks and new classes are formed at about an interval of a week after the current class is graduated. Applicants must pass the physical test prescribed by the local draft board. While at the school the student-chaplains receive free subsistence, lodging and uniform and the pay of a first-class private, $33.00 per month, with mileage home at the rate of three and one-half cents a-mile upon the completion of his course. If appointed he takes the rank and pay of a first lieutenant o the National Army $2,000 a year and 2,200 abroad. The next class begins August 23. Applicants should apply directly to the Adjutant General of the Army, who will furnish all necessary information. There are now about 31 colored chaplains in the several branches of the Army.

LIEUTENANT GREGORY NOW AT HOWARD Washington, August 20—Following the leaving of Major Spingarn for overseas duty, and the rejection of the proffered Captain's commission by Dr. DuBois, the projected colored division of the Intelligence Corps has petered out. Lieutenant Geegery, who was deailed several weeks ago to this department has been reassigned to the Students' Training Camp at Howard University. Lieutenants Curtis and Piper, who were also to be assigned to this field have been kept at their posts in command of labor battalions. THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY Washington, August 22—The appointment of Llent. Russell Smith, detailed in charge of the 2nd Batallion, Student Army Training Camp, Howard University, is the first time in the history of the United States when a colored officer has been placed in charge as commanding officer of a training camp. BURLY WHITES ASSAULT EDITOR ```markdown ``` 1920 Grand Exalter Ruler, ARMOND W, SCOTT, of Washington. Carl J. Murphy, editor of the Afro-American, was arrested last Saturday for refusing to enter the "Timocrow" coach. Mr. Murphy had gone, to the W.B. & A. Station and purchased a ticket for Washington. When he attempted to enter the front coach, he was ordered to the rear coach. When he refused he was roughly handled by the employers of the road assisted by the station policeman. He was then turned over to the police authorities and taken to the Central Police Station, where a charge of disorderly conduct was placed against him. He was released on a collateral of $26.45 and ordered to appear Monday morning. Despite the fact that he sent a certificate from a physician stating that he was unable to appear for the trial Justice Denarco refused to further postpone the hearing and declared Mr. Murphy's collateral forfeited. Attorney Warner T. McGuinan has been engaged and will make a thorow test of the matter to find out whether or not the railway has the power to "Timocrow" and assault interstate passengers. As soon as the arrest of Mr. Murphy became known in this city and Wurthman many expressed the wish that the matter be fought to the last ditch. It was pointed out that many of the employees of the company are most disrespectful to colored passengers, especially those who resented the humiliation of being forcibly segregated. The "Jimcrow" policy has been one of disgust to prominent colored patrons of the road, and they have complained time and again, but without avail. A big protest meeting was held in Washington this week when steps were taken to fight the railway company. PROTESTS GO UNHEEDED. The attempted segregation of Dean William Pickens and other prominent colored people of this city and Washington have been protested against, but the railway has continued its policy of trying to "Jimrow" all colored passengers. Dr. Pickens was among those who sent a letter of protest to the company, but it remains unanswered. Many colored people have resorted to the steam roads rather than be humiliated on the W. B. & A. The railroad employees, it seems, have become more insistent in trying to enforce the segregation policy since the recent ruling of W. Cabell Bruce, counsel to the Public Service Commission, in which he holds that the Commission has no power to compel the railway to alter its policy, the matter being an interstate one. This decision was given following a letter of protest sent to the Commission by Dr. William H. Wright, of this city. In the case of W. H. Hart, a teacher in the law department of Howard University, who was arrested for an alleged violation of Maryland's "Jimrow" car law, the Court of Appeals ruled that the law, applied to traffic wholly within the state only, and that passengers traveling from a point in the state to a point without, and vice versa, were not affected by the law MORE DRAFTEES LEAVE FOR CAMP Class 1 of the first draft was practically cleaned up when over seven hundred men left Union Station for Camp-Dix, Wrightstown, N. J., Thursday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. The men came from every ward in the city except the 13th and 24th. The 17th had the largest number with 170 men. While the drafters seemed cheerful many did not relish the prospect-of being sent to Camp-Dix, because of its distance from Baltimore. They realized if they had been sent to Camp Mende they would be able to get home offener. The special train in which the men traveled stopped at West Philadelphia, leaving for Camp Dix at 4:15 p.m., over the Delaware Bridge route. It was six o'clock when the men arrived at Camp Dix and they ate with gusto the supper that Uncle Sam had provided for them. The following is a list of those who left: 3rd WARD. Chales N.

This week, we want to tell you of other agent, who has regular em- ment working eight and one-half ors or more every day, and who sells Afro-Americans in his spare time. He assisted by his two small sons and ing daughter, but does the bulk of work himself. Sunday and Saturday before and after the hours of his regular work, he held Afros, making as much noise on streets of East Baltimore as the age newsboy makes in selling the first war extra. Sundays his sales continue and sometimes on Monday after work hours. This agent sells 1000 Afros, and his income is $29 per week and $1040 per year. Remember, he earns this in addition to his regular salary. In fact, it is what a woman would call "bin money." Any one who can use this kind of money should come to the office and talk the matter over with the circulation manager. The Afro wants live sitting boys and girls to sell papers in the State and city. Come in today. Mentant and Mrs. Cyrus W. Marrane receiving congratulations on each of a fine one.

Of all the regiments in the army none have a better reputation than the 9th and 10th Cavalry and the 24th and 25th Infantry.

Since the Texas uprising, it is said, sentiment in the ad- American, army ought to have. In one sense there ought be no Infantry so that beginning in June, detachments of the regiment were sent as cadre detachments to various camps in the country. This means, of course, that they become drill sergeants of the raw drafted recruits. It is said that one-third of the entire regiment has been distributed in this way, and that more cadre detachments are to follow. The spirit of the fighting 24th is the spirit that the whole Amercian ought to have. In one sence, there ought to be no regrets that this splendid regiment is being distributed thru all the camps. No quicker and better way could be devised for making the traditions of the 24th the traditions of the army.

A TIMELY CONFERENCE. ive is the 92nd Division?" asked Secretrence last week with the representatiorgro College Committee. Negro boy could have answered that quide that Mr. Emmet Scott and the mem immediately put into their reply: "Over the front line." "Where is the 92nd Division?" asked Secretary Baker in his conference last week with the representatives of the Central Negro College Committee. Any Negro boy could have answered that question with the same pride that Mr. Emmet Scott and the members of the committee immediately put into their reply: "Overseas—some of them in the front line." In the press of handling the larger problems involved in the carrying on of so colossal a project as the part of the United States in the war involves, Mr. Baker might be pardoned if the small matters so vital to colored people are overlooked. Such conferences as the one during the week are therefore necessary in order to bring all forces into the clear, where there is mutual understanding and every ounce of energy can be put in the task immediately ahead. Credit is due the committee for its presentation of the facts in the case. So far as is known, not a single major statement was challenged. The committee showed that there are nowhere near enough colored officers for colored troops; but physicians and dentists are being thrown away by inducting them into the army as privates; and that the proper relation of colored non-combatant troops to combat troops ought be 2 to 1 instead of 4 to 1. These were the facts and Mr. Baker listened to them sympathetically and promised a careful consideration of the case as a whole. No more timely conference has been held at the War Department since this same College Committee took up the Fort Des Moines Training Camp proposition last year and carried it through successfully. Hello Bill! How are you? Baltimore is wide open for you to spend the week of your lives. Not only the Elks, but every citizen of Baltimore joins in wishing for you a successful convention, and a most enjoyable stay in our city. Lord Baltimore is known the world over for his hospitality and he would not dare fall down on the job when he has such a livey, happy bunch of visitors. C. J. G.'s COLUMN BY CEE JAY GEE. SEEN AND HEARD AT MEADE. It is just about impossible to get into Camp Meade or out of it without seeing the boys in their toques. These new bonnets used to be the distinguishing characteristic of men who had seen service in France and returned to train the boys over here. For the past two weeks, the Quartermaster has been issuing the new lids to the $88th at Camp Meade, and by next week all will have them. So if anybody sees a soldier boy, with a rakih topgear, swaggering up the boulevard, I hope they won't make the same mistake that I did by taking him for a poor wounded man, just out of the trenches. Roy Marty comply grate Frish Owens wiley, strike and "Dud" division of these men day the ed non-Training twelfth of --- Two years ago, Frank, Pertkins known in Baltimore as "Fuzzy" was in Howard University, specializing in Tennis and Biology. How times do change. Now he is serving grab out to hungry doughbys three times a day, and drawing a mess sergeant's pay. He taught a year at Tuskegee after leaving college, and came from there straight to Meade. He is bound for the top, and one of these days private are going to look up to him as lieutenant. So its hats off to Fuzzy. The $808 regiment us eto have nearly all white non-commissioned officers. Gradually, beginning about two weeks ago, after the riot, the personnel has been changing so that the larger part of the non-coms are now colored. For example, there are Corporals S. R. Cooper, William Buck, erase, Bagwell, Edgar Jackson, Lee A. Thomas and Sergeants Walter Dorsey, Robert O. Matthews, Louis H. Wilson, Kaymond H. Hamilton, Jos. T. Owens, John Jackson and Lvin Scribner. THOUSANDS OF ELKS COMING Continued from Page One are being made to accommodate at least three thousand people. Trips to Camp Meade and Drulid Hill Park, as well as other points of interest in and around the city have been arranged. The business sessions of the Grand Lodge will be held at St. Peter Claver's Auditorium, Carey and Presstman street commencing Tuesday morning. The lady Elks will hold their sessions in Elks Hall, 414 West Hoffman street, which has been transformed into a place of beauty. There will be an electrically lighted court of honor in the block on Hoffman street in which the Elks' home is located. Many business houses and places of business have been gaily decorated for the occasion. The local committee of arrangement's is composed of the following: William Lewis chairman; George A. Watty, Nelson Price, Samuel T. Hemsley, Lewis E. Williams, Asa Porter, Walter Wiley, George T. Brent, Raymond Coates, Mrs. Bertha Williams, Mrs. Agnes Garrett, Mrs. Hannah H. Dodd and Lawson N. Duffin, treasurer. The election of officers will take place on Wednesday and the consensus of opinion that the present exalted ruler, Armond W. Scott, or Washington, will be reelected. It is likely, however, that an elective office will be given to one of the members of the ruling custom to give the entertaining city that honor. Just who it will be can not be learned, but indications point to the selection of Samuel T. Hemsley, who is one of the most popular members of the antlered herd in the city. Miss J. Louise Brown and Mrs. C. L. Davis, of 1821 McCulloh street have returned from a trip to Atlantic City. [Name] Of the Machine Gun Company, 36th Infantry, now serving somewhere overseas. He is the eldest son of Mr. and Ms. Hezekiah Russell of West.Baltimore street. They received a very interesting letter from him last week stating he is well and very much pleased with the historical scenery and hospitable treatment. Roy Marshall, corporal with the supply company; William Savage and Edgar Frisby with the Pioneers, Carl Owens with the Engineers, Lee Shipley, striker in the officers quarters, and "Duck" Gibson in the sanitary division of a labor battalion. All of these men pray every night that some day the ban will be lifted and colored non-coms sent to the Officers' Training School which starts the fifteenth of every month. A recently married recruit from the southland is living in hopes of getting a pass and coming to Baltimore some day. We hurried along the hot dust road at Camp Meade together and dodged the motorcycles and army trucks that whizzed by as if their only mission was to throw oodles of dust down the throats of wayafers, and he unburdened his mind to me. He was hurrying to barracks so as not to get a black mark on his record, then, sometime, he would receive a pass for the city. Black marks, he informed me, could be gotten for failure to salute officers, to have all the buttons on one's clothes, or having them all buttond up. Sometimes soldiers got a black mark for wearing their hats on the side of their heads, and I secretly admired the regulation that keeps soldiers' hate off their ears. He said his brother-in-law was Campbell Johnson, 1615 Miller street, and he had never seen him, and he wanted to, and he did not know how to get to Miller street, and he reckoned a taxi driver would not soak him more than two beans for carrying him up there. So I hope that Campbell Jones sees this, and runs down to Camp Meade to look up his brother-in-law, who wants so badly to find him. LONGGREEN HAPPENINGS. Longgreen, Md., Aug. 22—Rev. P. H.

WITH THE ARMY IN FRANCE— That the war in France is proving a great leverer bringing white and black officers and men closer together on more intimate terms is shown by the following dispatch from the French front. A colored private directing a baseball team composed of both races and of officers and men selected only for their ability as ball players is a sight rarely witnessed in our American camps. As for the betting it is said that rival regiments will bet anything down to their rifles on the outcome of a baseball game. "In town some distance back from the fighting line in France a ball game was arranged one Sunday. With about 500 men to select from, the promoters managed to get two pretty good teams together. Officers and privateers were among the players. One of the best players was a white captain, who ordinarily is the soul of dignity and reserve. On the same team with him was a colored man who used to manage a team of his own in Mobile, Ala. In view of the fact that considerable was at stake and that the play was likely to require excellent team work, it was agreed that all formalities should be put aside for the period of the game—in other words, that people should be called by their first names. "There were some familiarities, but none startling, till the eighth inning, when the white captain on first base, started for third on a short hit. The colored private was coaching at third and his heart was in the game. The run the captain might get was vital. So as the captain sprinting as swiftly as he could, was plunging toward third, the private was snouting at the top of his voice. "Come on there, you kid! Come on come on——" "Just at that moment the captain tripped and rolled in a cloud of dust. There was still time to make it if he rose quickly. The private, gathering the full power of his lungs, yelled: "Come on you; on you big stuff, you mud hen; what are we paying you for?" Out of the dust cloud rolled the captain safe at third. He put up his hand to call the game for a moment. Then, brushing dust from his clothes and panting for sufficient breath for the Brobdingnagian utterance he was about to make, he said to the Negro: "Jim, listen to me and listen good. From this moment on its captain. Do you understand English? Captain—just plain captain." Co. D., 506 Eng. Corp. A. E. F. July 14 1918. Dear Mother: I received your most loving letter a few days ago, and was very glad to hear from you, and know that you are nicely located. Today in France is a great National holiday just like the Fourth of July is at home, so that every one here is preparing for a big time. We have been promised a large dinner today and there are a great many other things going on. I am sorry that Mrs. Cadin and Rev. Williams have not received the mail yet, but I guess they will get it soon. I have not yet received the book or papers, but it always takes a little longer for them than it does a letter. I do not know anything more at present, o ther than that I am in good health and spirits. Hoping that when you receive this it will find you well and with much love, I will close, from your devoted son. CHARLES THOMPSON SMILES AND CHUCKLES. Thorough: "Do you want to sell that mule?"

A ceive Commission. Camp Meade, August 21—If reports circulated around the camp prove true, Charles Harris, who is best known as leader of the famous Commonwealth Land, of Baltimore, will soon be one of the boys at Camp Meade. The 808th Infantry stationed in the "E" section of the camp has a band of 31 pieces under the leadership of Bandmaster Wheelock of Carlisle Indian School. This number is to be augmented by 20 new enlistments so as to bring the number up to 51. Peerless "Charlie" Harris is said to be the man selected to lead and direct these boys. Under the new army regulations, the bands have all been increased to 51 members and the director commissioned a second lieutenant. This is how a commission is being figured out for "Charlie." The $80th band as it stands today, with only 31 pieces, is no piker, and the camp figures that with the addition of a real bandmaster and 20 more men, the regiment will take no "dust" from any of the famous institutions in the army. SEVEN HUNDRED LEFT. Seven hundred men, constituting the original $80th regiment, were transferred to the August Replacement Draft, and left the camp last Thursday. They had been here two months and the most of them were Baltimoreans. Now the majority of the men in camp are from "Ole Virginia," North Carolina and further South. It is expected that the $80th will be checked up and on their way from Meade before September 10th. There was no official confirmation of this report however. "E" section of the Camp Y. M. C. A., presided over by Secretary B. C. B. Church has five hundred illiterates in school five days per week. These men are being taught the alphabet, how to write their names, and how to write simple letters back to the folks at home. With these men, the school is practically compulsory, and they are excused from two hours drill work in the morning each day in order to attend. J. L. Dames of Washington, is the new business secretary of "E" but. Rev. Ernest Lyon, chairman of the Colored Division of Defense Council spoke to white and colored men at the but last Sunday and was given a hearty reception. Mt. Vernon 638-J.

Address D. Newton E. Campbell, B. S., M. D. 1369 N. Carsey St., Baltimore, Md. For others who do not know the truth and are suffering as I suffered, I wish to state that about two years I had a terrible cough, weakness and loss of flesh. Our own physician Dr. Mace attended me for some time, and said, had tubes inserted and they worked on me for some time and wanted me to go to Bayview, but as I got worse all the time, I said it was best to die at my own home as anywhere else. I went down until I weighed only 96 lbs. Someone told me to try Dr. Campbell, the Lung Specialist, 1369 N. Carey street, Baltimore, Md., as he was beaten. He was in a company with my sister, weighing less than 96 lbs. He examined me and told me the truth. He put me on the Lung Base Treatment, and I started to change for the better immediately. Thank God am living, and on November 17, I weighed and I had 148 lbs. I believed now that I ever was sick in my life. I know several others Dr. Campbell cured of the same trouble, and those who are suffering with the same trouble should know where they can best be helped.

SIDENT WILSON FOR WAR TIME SCHOOLS. ident Wilson urges generous aid for schools or all grades during war. In a letter to Secretary approving the Bureau of Edu's plan for an educational camp this summer and fall he says: am pleased to know that despite unusual burdens imposed upon people by the war they have trained their schools and other ties of education so nearly at normal efficiency. That this be continued throughout the end that, in so far as the draft will permit, there should be no go off in attendance in elemen's schools, high schools or colleges matter of the very greatest imance, affecting both our strength and our national welfare and ency when the war is over. So as the war continues there will constant need of very large number of men and women of the high and most thorough training for service in many lines. After the there will be urgent need not for trained leadership in all lines industrial, commercial social and life, but for a very high average intelligence and preparation on the of all the people. I would there urge that the people continue to generous support to their schools all grades and that the schools add themselves as wisely as possible the new conditions to the end that boy or girl shall have less opportunity for education because of the and that the Nation may be strengthened as it can only be through right education of all its people. READING CIRCLE e National Rural Teachers' Readicle circle was organized in 1915 by bureau of Education in cooperation with an advisory committee of superintendents of public indian. The purpose is to be of assistance to the thousands of active, serious-minded teachers sections of the country who dance in their study to immi- selfes professionally. New in the history of the secu- there so great a demand for trained rural teachers' and su- stants at the present time. It insist in finding and equipping educators that the Bureau of organized the Reading Circ- three years ago. — The American farmers their great share in winning through increased production and. After the war is won population must take an equally vital part in the economic reconstruction that is sure to follow the war. This calls for a new type of leadership, cultured and educated in practical phases of modern scientific agriculture. The most important and indispensable agent in the attainment of this task will be the rural teacher. Without the well-educated, broad minded sympathetic teacher any system of education can only be a lifeless mechanism. Therefore the public must look to the country teachers and their preparation and see to it that they shall be men and women of the best native ability, the most thorough education and the highest degree of professional knowledge and skill. Since the time of organization a large number of progressive rural teachers of the country have become members of the Reading Circle. No attempt has been made to draw large numbers, the aim has been rather to list a few leaders from each county in the several states. Of the number matriculated a large percentage have completed the work and have received the Commissioner's certificate. Cost. The Reading Circle for 1918-20, which is hereby announced, will be without cost to the members except for the necessary books, which may be procured from the publishers at regular retail rates, or through libraries, or in other ways. There is no restriction as to membership, although it is highly desirable that applicants have a liberal acquaintance with the best literary works, past and present. The work is intended as a two year reading course although it may be completed by the industrious teacher in a shorter time. A certificate signed by the United States Commissioner of Education will be awarded to each teacher who gives satisfactory evidence of having read intelligently not less than five books from each of the other four lists—seventeen books in all—within two years from the time of registering. Teachers interested in the 1918-20 Reading Circle work should write for circulars, registration, blanks, etc., to the Rural School Division, Bureau of Education, Department of the Interior Washington, D.

RICHARDSON—In sad but loving remembrance of my loving husband, Westbrook Ellsworth, who died one year ago, August 19, 1917. The month of August once more is here To me the saddest of the year Because it took from me away My husband whom I loved always. Out in the silent graveyard Beneath the sod and dew Never one moment forgotten In. silence I think of you Days of love forever forgotten Past and venished from my sight Nothing held deosolation Turning midday into night Tint my arm on which I rested Long longer at my side And the voice I loved to follow Never more shall be my guide.

LEMONS DO MAKE THE SKIN WHITE How to make a lemon bleaching lotion at home for a few cents Your grocer has the lemons and any drug store or toilet counter will supply you with three ounces of orchard whisk for a few cents. Squeeze the juice of two fresh lemons into a bottle, then puff in the orchard white and shake well. This makes a quarter pint of the very best lemon skin whitener and complexion bleach known. Massage this fragrant, creamy lotion daily into the face, neck, arms and hands and just see how smooth, soft and white the skin becomes. Yes! It is harmless, and the beautiful results will surprise you. JAMS AND PASTES SAVE CRUSSED BROKEN FRUIT These are the best forms in which to utilize broken and crushed fruits which have been injured in handling or are too ripe for jelly making or preserving. They are prepared by crushing the fruit, adding sugar or not, as desired, and cooking until thick. Pastes differ from jams only in their consistency, the pastes being cooked longer, and consequently are more concentrated. Apple Jam Apples with a tart flavor make the best jam. Peel quarter and core the fruit. Weigh. Place in the preserving kettle and add sufficient water to nearly over the fruit. Cook until soft and for each pound of fruit add 3-4 poun dof sugar. The juice and grated rind of two or three lemons or oranges for each 1-2 peck of apples may be added if desired. Cook until thick, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Fill into hot freshly sterilized jars, seal and store. Pastes Fruit pastes may be prepared from the same materials as just given for jams, using the same proportions. Cook to as thick a consistency as possible without scorching and then spread upon platters or greased paper, and dry in an open oven or fruit and vegetable dryer until the paste can be lifted in a thin layer. Store in moisture proof containers. These pastes are sometimes made from fruit pulp left after the cider juice has been extracted for jelly making. The pulp should be put through a sieve, combined pound for pound with powdered sugar and well boiled down before drying. Apples, also tomatoes, may be profitably handled by making them into pastes. No sugar need be used, and the paste may be used for making pies sauces, soups, etc., by merely adding water sufficient to give the original volume. State Bread Jam Fritters. Spread twelve slices of bread on one side with jam, then put another slice on top of each. Cut into neat shapes or leave just so, and soak a little in hot skim milk. Sift one cupful of flour, the 50-50 tibid, into a basin with a pinch of salt. Break one egg into the middle of the flour and add a half cup of milk gradually, and beat the batter well. Dip the pieces of bread in this batter, and fry in smoking hot fat to a golden brown. Drain and serve with maple syrup or corn syrup. Toby Pudding. Use two cupfuls of lemon or other jello. Cut the bread into small dice. Fill a buttered mold nearly full of the dice, pour over it the hot Jello, and leave until it has set. Turn out when firm and serve with good rich-milk or whipped cream.

You Need a Real Scalp Food There are so many so-called hair growers on the market, a large number of which are nothing more than perfumed grease, it is no wonder people get discouraged and lose faith in all hair tonics. In deciding what to use on your scalp be sure and get a remedy of proven merit. Seeby's Quimade is a highly medicated pomade that has stood the test of time. It is a real scalp food; it stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long hair. Quinade is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced registered pharmacist. It makes the hair soft and smooth and easy to put up in the style desired. To get best results from the use of Quinade it is necessary to shampoo the scalp about every two weeks with Seeby's Quinasop. Quinasop is made entirely out of pure vegetable oils, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleanser. Quinasop lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequalled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting; Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinasop, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstrict or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send us the price and we will mail them to you.
