Thursday morning an opinion of the Court of Appeals was handed down in the case of John Snowden, convicted of the murder of Lottie Brandon, white, affirming the judgment of the lower Court. This means that Snowden will surely hang unless Governor Harrington intervenes and grants executive clemency. Mr. Brady, Snowden's attorney, in an interview with a reporter of the Afro-American said that the fight had been a hard one and he had done everything possible to save the convicted man's life.

Lottie Brandon, a white woman, was brutally assaulted and murdered at her home in Annapolis, August 8, 1817. The case baffled the Annapolis authorities and the crime was laid upon first one and then another. The husband of the murdered woman was among those at first implicated, but he was later rehabilitated. The Annapolis authorities, baffled, called upon the Baltimore police to help loot the criminal. About a week after the murder, John Swainson, who is the mayor driver in Annapolis, was said to have been seen in the house of the Brandon woman and was locked up, charged with the crime. By this time, interest in the case had spread throughout the State, and in Annapolis, the feeling began to耐 the police, falling in their efforts to fainen the crime, used Snowman in a sense of scandal, used Towson in January 1818 and created considerable interest. Prominent citizens in Annapolis, Baltimore and Washington received the best legal aid possible, raised a fund of over $300 and secured of Annapolis' Grayson, of Towson and Williams, of Washington. Snowden, testifying in his own behalf alleged that he had been knocked down, biffed, sruck over the head and a loaded revolver leveled at him by Baltimore and Annapolis police authorities, in an effort to extract him via a confession. These statements also hinted that Marshall Carter and his assistants. Rev. E. S. Williams, who lived near the Brandon woman, testified in behalf of Snowden, who did also Rev. W. A. C. Hughes, of Washington, who was a visitor at the Williams' home at the time of the murder. Case went to the Jury on Friday. Forensic experts both sides had been present. The state plainly made an appeal to race prejudice in presenting its case to the jury, the of the attorneys remembering that Maryland had to be made safe for white women." The jury brought in a verdict of trial in the first degree. A new trial was at once asked for, but was adjourned. Judge Duncan, and an appeal was filed, but was enjoined Thursday, to grant the Court of Appeals refused to grant the accused marry a new trial.

Wounded Soldiers Are Segregated Wounded Soldiers Are Segregated Mr.Scott Informed that Wounded Heroes are Segregated by Surgeon General's Orders—Southerners Complained. Mr. Emmett Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War, received a memorandum from the Surgeon General of the Army to the effect that army authorities had ordered separate words in hospitals of the South for colored troops. The memorandum is as follows: (Attention Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Special Assistant to Secretary of War, Rooms 144-146.) 1. Your memorandum of November 29th quoting the complaint made by the mother of a consolled soldier re-affiliated to General Hospital No. 9, Lakewood, N. J., with reference to the discrimination against the colored soldiers, has been referred to the Commander Officer of General Hospital No. 9 for report, and with instructions to the effect that the colored soldiers are to receive the same attention as the services us as is to the white soldiers. 2. Over a year ago evidence of considerable friction developed in many of the hospitals particularly in the South, and numerous complaints were received because of the indiscriminate mixing of colored and white patients in the same room, and the contentiousness and believing it to be in the interest of harmony and to the advantage of the colored soldiers quite as much as to the white, instructions were issued from this office to the effect that so far as practicable, the colored soldiers would be placed in wards by themselves, that they would be cared for the careful consideration in every detail as was accorded any other soldiers. Wherever colored soldiers were patients in the hospital in sufficient number to warrant their being placed in separate wards, this was done. There was probably no hospital, however complete separation of colored and white patients was ever made. There were always some wards containing both white and colored patients, and it is known to be a fact that there has been no less vigilance in the care and treatment of the colored soldiers than has been accorded the white for this has been a matter of careful consideration by all commanding officers, nurses and chiefs of the hospitals.

The local school teachers met at the Pennsylvania Avenue A, M. E. Church last Thursday to consider the question for extension courses for colored teachers and wound up by discussing the segregation of colored teachers when both races are called together for occasional meetings at the Lyric. An educational meeting pure and simple. No newspaper reporters were present. It is said that the Superintendent of city schools, Prof. Churls J. Koch, asked that the teachers keep the discussion at the meeting to themselves. For this reason, no body wants to be quoted. I even Mr. Koch, House of the then approached by a representative of the Afro-American said that he had no statement to make. The very fact that several teachers had thought it proper to discuss this question of Jimrowing in open meeting and the applause by many others of what was said by the teachers, was found to be that the affair was bound to leak out. On several occasions recently teachers have commented on the fact that instead of allowing them to attend educational meetings and lectures at the Lyric, and sit where they have to, tickets are issued to throw the tickets to teachers off to themselves, and generally in the balcony. Mr. Koch is said to have been surprised at the quizzing and the statement that some of them preferred to stay at home rather than attend the meetings at the Lyric or anywhere else where they were compelled to and generally in the baleony.

PICKNEY CONDEMN SITE TELLS OF BIG DRIVE Hamilton Negro Haters Urge Mayor Preston to Condemn School Site to Make Way for Location of a Municipal Park. White residents of Hamilton believe they have a new plan to prevent Morgan College from being located in their vicinity. All of the activities of the institution are now contended on the old kills property, located midway between Hartford Road and Greencourt avenue, and which the new negotiation act brought within the city limits on January 1. William McAllister president of the Hamilton Improvement Association succeeds in a letter to Mayor Preston that the college site and the land being developed for first class homes for the race be either purchased or condemned as an extension of the park located in the Herring Han Valley. Mayor Foston is regarded as an insistent advocate of the segregation of the race in housing. It is believed by many, should he become a candidate for re-election to the United States, to prejudice whites, claiming that Negroes should not be allowed to live near whites. His City Solicitor, Samuel S. Field, made a little fight for Baltimore's segregation law, following the decision of the United States Court of Appeal for the District of legislation. Attorney Warner W. McGulian argued against the City Solicitor, and Judge Rose, of the local United States District Court ruled that the Supreme Court decision invalidated the local law along the lines of the city require the Morgan College property for park purposes, the development known as Morgan College will have to be abandoned. A number of prominent colored people have purchased home sites there. The city is within the new city limits, will be disturbed by an inguition. It may be stated that plans for the development of residential sites in the new annex do not contemplate colored people securing homes there. The law would prevent the enforcement out the segregation law protected people have secured many desirable homes within the old city limits. BISHOP HURST SUGGESTS_SCOTT Thinks Assistant to Secretary of War element of African Question. That an effort should be made to have the Peace Conference about an international board to supervise the West Indies and Colonies and to aid the mates toward self government is the opinion of Bishop John Hurst. "Colored people everywhere," he said the other day, "should be interested in the welfare of the colonies. I understand that representative colored men from South America and Africa will meet in Paris to discuss the Negro as a part of the world scheme for democracy. One of the question, that will come prominently before them will be the future of the South African colonies of the Germans. An international board should have one representative each from Japan, Belgium, France and Great Britain, Italy and the United States. I think it would not be a hard matter to induce France to appoint a colored man as its representative on the board. In the United States I think pressure can be brought to bear to have a colored man represent countries that have a representative than Emmet J. Scott, who has shown skilled ability as assistant to Secretary of War in handling difficult problems.

PICKNEY TELLS OF BIG DRIVE Pinckney Tells How Old First Separate Company Won Citation for Whole Regiment. —German Fixed Bayonets Fail to Stop Black Troopers. By Sergent Rufus Pinckney The work of our boys on the Champagne front in the September drive will go down in history as one of the finest things in their lives. September 26th found the 369th, 371st and 372nd marching toward the front, ready to do and die. Some of the boys sang "John Brown's Body Lies Mouldering in the Grass" others sang "Where do we go From Behind You." Near the front, the French seventy-fifers opened up behind us and began to send shells over our heads into the Huns. The sky was so lighted up that you could read a newspaper at night. German prisoners in batches of 500 and even 1000 passed us on their way behind the lines. We used men guarding them yelled to us, "We have got him, now you go on and get the huns." We were on our way to relieve the 15th New York, (colored troops) and it was about nine o'clock in the morning when we reached our third line of defenses, or what was the German first line two inches back. We fought, over our heads, "They have got him" you would hear some one shout, and then pretty soon a German flier would fall to earth in the Huns. The Huns were as thick as blackbirds, and whenever some of them flew directly over us at low tide, we fell on our backs and rifles. Very few of them hung around after this. Word from the commanding officer came back to us that we were to be ready to go over the top at 2 a.m., and you can just imagine how the minutes passed for the hour that we would bring a good many of us hell or heaven. Officers and men regulated their watches, so that everybody would have the same time. The last word came from our immediate friend, "I want you in that town by f' e clock." Shortly before two in the darkness of the night, the big guns opened up with their barrage, and promptly on the hour over the top we went. The black boys now had the field. We were not caught, and have scared the devil himself. The Germans answered with shell fire and gas, but we were not caught unawares. The men were determined to go in that town, or report to God the reason why. Found three o'clock we heard Germans calling "Kamerad, Kamerad," but we knew they did not mean it and we answered with our guns and bayonets. We saw the foe coming at us with fixed bayonets. Evidently they that we would run, but we went on to attack them, and spend, when we called on them for another barrage, so we went on without it. We were in the town by four o'clock, two hours ahead of the schedule. Because we took the town without German assistance, the French named the hill in front of it Hill 372 in honor of our regiment. In this engagement, they got me with machine gun bullets and gas; and as I fell with my eyes closed in pain, I heard some say: "I want you to run," I knew then we had done our duty and kept our promise.

TEACHERS BECOME FIREMEN How would you feel to find yourself suddenly changed from the teacher of a class to the fireman of the school? This is what happened to the teachers of School 110 on last Tuesday. The fireman has quit and the School Board has not as yet been able to get anyone who is willing to work for $55.00 a month. On last Monday the school was closed for a week. Tuesday there was no fireman and none in sight, so the teachers decided to fire the fires until one can be assured. TAL AT BETHEL The organ recital of last Sunday at Bethel Church was indeed a credit to the city and to Mr. Llewlyn Wilson. Mr. Wilson's renditions of Sonata in A Minor, Joseph by Rheinberger and Toccat and Fugue in D Minor by J. S. Each were quite commendable. The work of the tenor solos, Mr. Ollie Nichols is worthy of comment. Mr. Nichols is the solosist at St. Katerine's Church. He is a young man with the promise of a great future in music. A few more public soloists like last Sunday will aid him in getting place of himself and establishing place as a tenor solosist. Mr. Nichols rendition of "When I am Dead" by W. Liewleyn Wilson, brought out the fine qualities of his voices and displayed at the same time the musical ability of Mr. Wilson as a composer. INFANT BURNED TO DEATH A young man old boy was burned at 677 Hoffman street, on Wednesday afternoon. According to the statement of Ida Pratt, the mother of the dead infant she lighted the oven and a box in front of her and accompanied by her sister-in-law went to a nearby store to make some purchases. She had not been gone more than five minutes before and on entering the house detected the color of smoke she ran to the kitchen and found the baby in a mass of flames. Passengers of heard her sirens came out and the firemen, but the baby was already dead. Mrs. Frank told a representative of the Afro-American that she had been accustomed to leaving and that she had the house when she went to the store. The funeral took place in the same place when the grandfather, Mrs. Gibson, 114th dewan, died on Wednesday day afternoon of the week.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 17, 1919 Preston says he is not thinking of a third term as mayor, neither are the colored voters. Unless the local committees on welcoming soldiers get busy our boys will be marching home to find no welcoming arches and no preparations for public reception. News dispatches tell of 700 women volunteer workers in the canteens and Y. M. C. A. huts in France. Women always do their bit. do their bit. The Lowell, Massachusetts, SUN, white, remarked editorially "that the Negro will never rise to the state of development of which he is capable until he is held on an equality with the whites." We could wish that the "SUN" got out a Southern Edition. THE CAT IS OUT OF THE BAG the colored press, printed in the D.C. Afro-American, showed that the deputy capital of Tuskegee for France was a兵兵. as clean and clear a statement at the department announced that the Doctor's President Wilson to do morale work. With the tensity of the combat roses were likely to engage in excesses, being on this assigned reason, several at the statement sounded "fishy," a motive behind Dr. Moton's trip than the Associated Press despatches of January 12 bag. Dr. Moton in an interview is said came to France at the invitation of Mr. Baker, Secretary of War, as a delegate on African affairs. He is still the protect the rights of the Negroes in mistreatment. He declares the document as yet, because of ignorance, the protection of the great Power. Being has leaked out. Dr. Moton who advises President Scott, spoy or the War Department in a letter dated of January 12 states: "Ivyed to the Press of the country the mission before he left for France the time. . . . that President Wilson met him in Paris after his arrival the Dr. Moton on the other side. You can see that I have kept faith with them an exact statement as to the nation abroad. . . ." This letter of Mr. Scott's as the associated Press has misquoted Dr. Moton is correct, then Mr. Scott is not only an guilty of juggling with the truth. Be than a year, Mr. Scott in his office, Secretary of War has enjoyed the confidence of the majority of colored Aminity his duty to clear himself of misleading the public as to the trip abroad at an early date and the faith of his loyal supporters. A poll of the colored press, printed in the December 20th issue of the Afro-American, showed that the departure of Dr. Moton, principal of Tuskegee for France was viewed with mixed feelings. Ostensibly as clean and clear a statement as ever issued the War Department announced that the Doctor was going at the request of President Wilson to do morale work among colored soldiers. With the tensity of the combat relaxed, it was said, our troops were likely to engage in excesses. Commenting on this assigned reason, several newspapers remarked that the statement sounded "fishy," and there was some other motive behind Dr. Moton's trip than the one publicly given out. The Associated Press despatches of January sixth, let the cat out of the bag. Dr. Moton in an interview is quoted as follows: "Dr. Moton came to France at the invitation of President Wilson and Mr. Baker, Secretary of War, as adviser to the American delegates on African affairs. He is striving to have the conference protect the rights of the Negroes in Africa and prevent their mistreatment. He declares they are incapable of self-government as yet, because of ignorance, but that they should have the protection of the great Powers against injustice." So the thing has leaked out. Dr. Moton went to France primarily to advise President Wilson what to do with Africa, but for some reason, not yet plain, it apparently seemed best to the War Department not to let this information get out until now. By way of explanation Mr. Emmett Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of the War Department in a letter to the Afro-American under date of January 12 states: "I conveyed to the Press of the country the true purpose of Dr. Moton's mission before he left for France. Dr. Moton has advised me. . . . . . that President Wilson requested Dr. Moton to meet him in Paris after his arrival there, the letter having reached Dr. Moton on the other side. Under the circumstances, you can see that I have kept faith with the Press in conveying them an exact statement as to the reasons for Dr. Moton's mission abroad. . . ." Accepting this letter of Mr. Scott's as the true statement, then the Associated Press has misquoted Dr. Moton. If the Associated Press is correct, then Mr. Scott is not only in error, but his department is guilty of juggling with the truth in a rather careless fashion. For more than a year, Mr. Scott in his office as special assistant to the Secretary of War has enjoyed the full measure of trust and confidence of the majority of colored Americans. It is certainly his duty to clear himself of any charge of intentionally misleading the public as to the true purpose of Dr. Moton's trip abroad at an early date and thus vindicate the unfaltering faith of his loyal supporters. BISHOP HURST'S SUGGESTION suggestion of Bishop John Hurst in a letter that the allied Governments of the emp by placing African Colonies on division of an international board. Hurst's scheme proposes one member, once, England, United States, etc. appoint a colored man, America counsellor the Bishop, be led to follow suit, and ought to be Emmett J. Scott of the emms nominations are in order, the usually to put in nomination a man, America and Africans is not limited to African eight years in South Africa, to with an opportunity for observation, that no other colored America. E. B. DuBois, now at the Peace Commission things be done for Africa, has written; Dr. R. R. Moton, who has invited to serve as adviser on Dr. DuBois, has lived his whole lifetime setting foot on African soil. Using strange that our government intends to advise with on the African queen who are such splendid Americans, buleica. J. Albert Johnson, of Philadelphia, wantsto know what will satisfy us to consult, Dr. Moton, Dr. DuBois is the slightest intention of finding ourselves would wish, we suggest that to Africa at least and lived there. The suggestion of Bishop John Hurst in another column is to the effect that the allied Governments dispose of the African Problem by placing African Colonies of Germany under the supervision of an international board. der the superb Bishop Hurst's scheme proposes one member from Japan, Belgium, France, England, United States, etc. France would, very likely appoint a colored man, America could under pressure, thinks the Bishop, be led to follow suit, and the man in his judgment ought to be Emmett J. Scott of the War Department. As it seems nominations are in order, the Afro-American rises respectfully to put in nomination a man, whose acquaintance with Africa and Africans is not limited to America. This man has spent eight years in South Africa, travelling from place to place with an opportunity for observation, and a mind for comprehension, that no other colored American has availed himself of. Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, now at the Peace Conference, urging that certain things be done for Africa, has written volumes on the Dark Continent; Dr. R. R. Moton, who has accepted President Wilson's invitation to serve as adviser on African questions, like Dr. DuBois, has lived his whole lifetime in America without ever setting foot on African soil. It is passing strange that our government in picking colored Americans to advise with on the African question should select those who are such splendid Americans, but such poor experts on Africa. persons in Africa. Bishop J. Albert Johnson, of Philadelphia is the man. If the Government wants to know what will satisfy Americans, it can continue to consult, Dr. Moton, Dr. DuBois and Mr. Scott, but if it has the slightest intention of finding out what the Africans themselves would wish, we suggest that it call in one who has been to Africa at least and lived there. MARYLAND IS IN IT station by the War Department of the Army Regiment, including our own First Sergeant, the First Separate Battalion of War. There is no doubt that Sergeant Reeve the incident was correct as reported. Other column of this week's paper, that of the engagements of the September attack a fortified town and hill without everlasting fame and the gratitude. Confirmation by the War Department of the citation of the entire 372nd Regiment, including our own First Separate Company, and the First Separate Battalion of Washington is still lacking, but there is no doubt that Sergeant Rufus Pinckney's account of the incident was correct as reported. account of the most account of the week's paper, the Sergeant tells of the one of the engagements of the September Drive in which our boys took a fortified town and hill without artillery, and thereby won everlasting fame and the gratitude of the French people. This was simply one of the fights in which they took part during the war and were officially cited as a regiment. Three citations is the total of the honors they won and bring home. That must have been an impressive sight in that lower Rhine Country one dark day last December, when those black boys lined up and received his decoration for deeds of daring and valor. Their hearts must have gone out in unusual expressions of gratitude to big hearted, truly democratic France, which looks beneath the color of the skin for the man. which looks beneath On the banks of the Meuse, in the Argonne forest, on the hills of Verdun, around the villages of Grandpre, Vanquois and Champagne, sleeping below the sod, were other 372nd heroes, who were not in line that day because they had given their lives for the victory of the allied armies. If these dead have like Napoleon's wondrous grenadiers could rise from their graves simply by wishing hard enough, we can be certain that they were present in the spirit along with their living comrades. So far the records of the present world show two colored regiments to have been cited for valor on the field of battle, the old 15th New York, and now our own boys the 372nd Infantry. TRENTON HAS NOTHING ON SALISBURY it takes a Sansbury, Herry Roberts had his comrade, Henry Johnson, to help him in repulsing a raiding party of Germans, but Butler took care of a German lieutenant and squad of boches all by himself. Herbert Cory, a white newspaper correspondent, in telling of the incident said that Butler came "a roaring and fogging" thru the darkness with his automatic, and "nobody knows how many Germans he killed. It was for this that General Pershing awarded him the distinguished service cross recently and the citation read: "Sergt. William Butier, Company L, 369th Infantry. (A. S. No. 104464.) For extraordinary heroism in action near Maison de Champagne, France, August 18, 1918. Sergeant Butler broke up a German raiding party which had succeeded in entering our trenches and capturing some of our men. With an automatic rifle he killed four o f the raiding party and captured or put to flight the remainder of the invaders. Home address. Mrs. Jennie Butier, 403 Water street, Salisbury, MD." The rest of the state of Maryland and the whole United States now has its hat off to Salisbury.

THE FORUM --- What Kind of a Man Should Run for the City Council. Dalhousie had a colored councilman for years. It will soon have an opportunity to choose another. I shall tell here just what kind of a man I am here of any individual, either, but I am speaking of an ideal—and some will be far from it. I am not a man of loyalty, not community interests, and should be a social animal, with the empathy on the "social" rather than the "L." No man should ask the suffrage of the people who is not in my interest, and should not get it. A loyal friend would be better than an intelligent trader for it, should not get it. A loyal friend would be better than an intelligent trader for it, should not get it. For a loyal friend, everybody will soon find it out; but if he be a "smart trader, he will be all the better, and will be a bad man worse. The best man, however, must have both qualities—loyalty and intelligence. It does not mean that we should want a man who is narrow, and who will place the interest of the whole city. "I man who attempts to serve anybody in that way will hurt their inter- 2. The choice to be able to work with white people, I do not mean by this that he should have the capacity and shrewdness to fool somebody. White people are not so easy to fool. I mean that he should be a man who has the wildness of heart, and the generosity of spirit to overlook the marvelous number of shortcomings and democracy and social existence. He should not put his personal pleasure before the common good of those whom he represents. If you do not carry chips on your shoulder, nobody can knock a chip off your shoulder, and a statement's shoulders should be loaded with more important burdens than chips. This does NOT mean that a person who will be subservient to anybody's whims is himself full of whims, and who will be himself to the solid good in men because he stumbles over their follies. It takes a big man to work along with the "color-line" anywhere. That is the acid test in common sense in America. The man who always assists in personal pleasure will have success. This is the "color-line" where the man will ALWAYS serve and stand by the real interests of the race, but when an at the same time submerge or subordinate his individual wish or pleasure are, who may sacrifice himself but not for people. This is really consistent; for a man who is too much interest in personal life will find a place of being unituliers to advance. Such a man is dangerous to both blacks and whites. 3. In the name of heaven, let him be not a procreator, but a set of sets in politics. Elsewhere somebody who has other interests or another job and is not a procreator for his very existence. For the stomach of a hungry politician is the most powerful argument that his system works. Don't elect a recluse who lives locked up in his house so the people cannot approach would be more in the way of your advancement man in the office. For whenever a colored man occupies such a position, white people will be affected affecting the colored people should be brought to his white colleagues. If you want to burn the colored people could not go or would not go, he would serve only to block the reaction of the colored people. *Silly Council* Get a good mixer, but be careful about what he mixes, for, to be a good fellow to the man, to be a good friend or of the "bar."

R. Lynch being elected temporary chairman of the Republican National Convention. He was made a most creditable record as a congressman from Mississippi. He was made a paymaster from Mississippi. He was being a congressman when he reached the age limit of 64. The cotred man was a big factor in the National Conventions. Frederick Lovett, John M. Langston, Hiram Revere, Wright Cuney, Thiam E. Burger, B. S. Hinchack, John C. Dancy, B. K. Bruce, Perry Carson, Hiram Watty, Bishop H. Young were among the big figures. Robert B. Elliott died that year. As a Civil Service Commissioner and a candidate for New York he began to show his great qualities. The Teen Cavalry probably saved his life. John Hunn in 1884. The death of that year he became governor of New York and then his fair play toward the colored population in the bill which abolished separate schools for colored children in New York State. He appointed Charles Anderson as acting governor. Harry T. Burleish, the noted musician came to Albany one night to fill a musical engagement, but no hotel would give him a room. When Governor Roosevelt heard of this he invited Mr. Burleish to stay at the executive mansion that night. Perhaps no President knew as many colored men as did Roosevelt, and delegation after delegation was received by him. That he greatly relied upon the late Booker T. Washington for advice regarding the race was generally believed. In fact, Colonel Roosevelt said of himself when Dr. Washington died several years ago. Indeed, the careers of these two men laryally paralleled. Both were of about the same age. Roosevelt had the largest popular appeal of any man in America and Booker T. Washington was certainly the colored man with the largest Mr. Roosevelt declared for a square deal for all men when he stood by his guns in the appointment of Dr. W. D. Crum for Collector of Port at Charleston, S. C. He was interested in Nogoe education and was a trustee of Tuskegee Institute. When it seemed that Washington was not to have a modern Y. N. C. A building because many subscribers were delinquent in paying their pledges, Mr. Roosevelt helped to save the day by making a ringing appeal to sub His discharge of the 167 soldiers because of the Brownsville riot provoked a debate. During the height of the controversy, when Senator Foraker was championing the effort to start the country by giving to colored men two big federal appointments, James Tyler, Department and Charles W. Anderson was named as Collector of Internal Revenue for the Wall Street District, New York. Tyler appointed the Secretary Tyler appointment as being due to the influence of Booster T. Washington and dubbed him at "the third Senator from Only a few years before was the first appointment of a Negro to a federal plum court, and he was appointed by H. Lewis to be Assistant United States District Attorney at Boston. Mr. Lewis became Assistant Attorney General of the United States during the Tatt administration. Just before the end of his administration, Mr. Roosevelt became interested in the case of the Negro commission of which Emmett J. Scott was a member, to study conditions in the West African Republic. Dr. Ernest Lyon was then American minister to Liberia. Just before Colonel Roosevelt relinquished the presidency, a delegation of his staff, and a conference, were received at the White House. The late Bishop J. B. Hartzell headed the delegation and the President of the United States accomplished by him in West Africa. When Mr. Roosevelt left the White House in 1912 he and the esteem of all men in 1913 had to address the all-butthigh he spoke in Baltimore a number of times, his only address here to a distinctly colored audience was at a public meeting in the Progressive candidate for president. His last notable appeal to justice to the colored people was when he charged that the laboring interests were responsible for the mutilation in East St. Louis eighteen months ago. FRANKLIN F.

Having a projective to gain and knowing that it must be done, these men faced death with smiles on their faces and singing national anthems. They took their projective fire time than the other men. Braver hearts and braver courage was never shown before. For these men had to remain at their projective under a similar barrage fire until they were relieved. For their share of trophies they captured a large number of prisoners and men. These men made of the best possible material of manhood, returned behind the lines with smiles on their faces that never die away. It was the same smile that our forefathers wore in the battles before us, boys paid the supreme price in this war, a great number were awarded. Our men knowing that the world's democracy was depending on them to do their bit they willingly gave their life for their country and the protection of the old red, white and blue, which has never and never will be trodd upon by the enemy. We will soon be coming home with victory in our hearts. We know that the prayers of our mothers, fathers, wives, sisters and sweethearts have been heard and answered by the Great Almighty.

GROW LONG STRAIGHT HAIR You Need a Real Scalp Food There are so many so-called hair grower 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 Quinula 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 it to become of good health. Quinula is the invention of an expert chemist and is made under the supervision of an experienced regenerated 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 Quinasap, Quinasap is made entirely out of pure vegetable oil, principally coconut oil, and is a thorough cleaner. Quinasap 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 Quinasap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 25 cents each. If your drugstreet or dealer does not stock these two articles ask him to obtain them for you from his wholesaler or send them to the price and we will mail them to you.

THE WONDED MAN SPEAKS By Harry Oren of The Vigilantes I left an ear in a dag-out When a shell-hit made us dance; And at Belleau Wood where the mixing was good I gave up a mitt for France. I lay on a cott-smoking And thought I was getting well; But the moon was bright on the bomb-plane's sight And the Gothas gave us hell. They certainly spoiled my beauty; And my leg is a twisted curve; They busted me up like a mangleled pup. EAT--THEY DID NOT BUST MY NERVE! I'll stop off ship at Hoboken And I'll say "Well, here I be. Straight from Belleau Wood and it's understood That nobody grieves for me." And no pussy-footing slissy Snail grab at my one good hand And make me feel drunk with the Just to make himself sound grand. For I'm damned if I be a hero. And I don't a helpless slob; after What I've said, what is left is good. And all I want is—A JOB. YOUR BOY Most fathers seem to be too busy to bother with their bodies and so are many mothers in many wonder that they are going to the bad? so in many cases father leaves the raising of the boy to the mother, and when she tells him of any wrong the boy has committed, he wants to know why she did not correct him to deal with him. I know a man who has a fine business and is an expert to deal with, but at present he is short of help, and the father of four line boys, he was asked why he did not have one of the boys in the shop with him after school to help him out? matter, it is too much bother," he muscled. "would I am showing one of them?" them I count "don't you think the boy will be your day?" need a job but I do not think he will be able to work this "work" he replied. "Why man, you do not know your own son" the man said, "he is a wonder with pencil and paints, it is born in him. I see you print a sign and even you would have to give him credit for it, but all he, but this is not school work this is business not play and I have no time to worry with one of them. He would only be in the shop a few hours in the afternoon and in my way." Such a father like the man he was talking to also wondered if the father could ever be made to understand that some one had to teach his boy and be worried with him, and why not the father, as his business was the one the old boy had a talent for. He was sixteen and as his father worked over hours work every day and had a wonderful lot. Are you going to let your boy go to school and after school hours come home and put his books down, do a few old jobs for mother and then erase the streets until ten and then a cook and often and you have his off time. If the mother is not always on the job I venture to say that your boy in a very few years won't amount to a bill of beans? Good advice is not superfluous and some day you may have to leave him to fight it in school. Why not not teach your boy to be a nanny. A father's mode of living and his thirty talks may so impress his boys as to mold his life. I once heard my father say that a boy between the ages of thirteen and twenty one was a problem, in fact it was his crazy age and my parent that could not get straight and just that age he be pretty sure of making a man out of him that was worth while." But do you think it can be done by indifference and no worry; any one that thinks so is vastly mistaken. It no only means patience, it no only and greedy, it no means compassion, love and understanding your boys thorny. FERNAN ADDRESS BOOK WITH THIS it much better to keep an address book in a convenient place than to be obliged to look for an old letter to get an address. Put it in a convenient place when you are traveling. One often wants to write a card or letter on the way, and an address is not always where we want it—in our mind. CLEANING THE CELLAR The cedar floor is usually very dusty, and the sweeping of it is very impatient. To prevent the dust and light lights from rising, after cleaning the walls and ceiling scatter we saw dust or wet shredded paper over the floor, and you can sweep in comfort. SEWING NARROW LACE ON RUFFLES. First crease the hem, then smooth the goods out and stitch the face flat along the crease which is to be the bottom of the hem, then refold and BUST DEVELOPMENT If any lady was asked the question; "Would you like to be beautiful" the answer would be "Yes." But any woman to be beautiful must possess a well developed bust. How many times has this question been asked by women and growing girls. What can be more appropriate? There are hundreds of women who were deficient in this respect, but who have had an excellent past. Do not hesitate to ask nature in bedding up the bust to its proper proportion. The remedy which is universally used and has been widely reputed for this purpose is BD MASSAGE CREAM (B-D means Bust Development). The cream is readily absorbed by the tissues, rubs in dry and builds up it. It is particularly compounded for developing the bust. It can also be used to build up the arms and shoulders. It will want a plump, full, beautiful of real, firm flesh why begin the use of BD MASSAGE CREAM at once don't wait. The sooner the better. You will be satisfied is the rebuilt skinned fromme of the first jar of cream. PRICE 50c and $1.00 per JAR. BEAUTY HINTS, consult our Beauty Department.

YOUR CAKE GRIDDLE If your griddle must be kept hot for late comers, slip it into the oven, close the door, and when the griddle is needed it is hot. BLACK KID GLOVES I was cleaning gloves one day and after cleaning a couple of white pairs I cleaned a pair of black ones, and after they were dry they were a grayish black and looked worse than when they were solled. They were too good to throw away and I was at a loss what to do with them. The only thing I knew them with a small black ink. I took a small clothing rag and went over the whole gloves with it. I then put a few drops of ink in a small saucer, and put in a tablespoonful of olive oil and mixed it throughly, wet the channel in this mixture and went over the whole gloves again. dried them on and finished them with a piece of chamois skin. The results were fine. HOT CLOTHS When hot cloths are needed either for household or medicinal purposes, instead of wringing them out, hot cloths can be put in the bounds and possible sloppiness for the patient, heat them in the steamer and thus avoid wringing entirely. TSING-RAKING SODA The best way to use soda is to dissolve it in a few drops of hot water and stir it into the dough or batter just before baking. Of course in making up biscuit this can be done only when the milk is added, but even then it is best to dissolve the soda in the hot water and add with the milk. Canned Fruit in Rice Wash one cupful of rice well in several waters, then put it into a saucepan with two cupfuls each of milk and water. Add two tablespoonfuls of butter substitute and one fourth teaspoonful of salt. Simmer until the rice is soft and has absorbed all the liquor. When ready, tilt into two tablespoonfuls of corn syrup or honey, and two yolks of eggs. Mix and turn into a well-greased ring mold, cover with greased paper and steam for thirty minutes. Turn out on to a hot serving dish, fill the center with canned or preserved fruit, cover with a meringue and lightly in the oven. Serve hot or cold decorated with a few preserved cherries. MEAT PUDDING Chop one pound of cold cooked meat, add to it one cooked onion, peeled and chopped, one and one-half cupfuls of boiled rice or mashed potatoes, one and one-half cupfuls of parsley, one teaspoonful of salt, one-half teaspoonful of pepper, one-fourth teaspoonful of powdered nutmeg, and sufficient gravy or stock to bind the mixture. Grease a dish or mold and sprinkle it with oatmeal. Put in the mixture and bake for minutes moderate oven for four minutes. In a hot platter, garnish with sprigs of parsley and serve with some seasoned gravy. SPINDLED OYSTERS For two dozen large oysters have two dozen thin slices of bacon, and one half dozen, thin slices of crisp toast. Have ready one-half dozen slender steel skewers with slices of cheese with slices of the bacon running the skewer thru the eye of the oyster, and threading the bacon by one corner. Do not crowd. Lay the skewers across a baking pan and cook in a quick oven or under the gas for five minutes. Lay each spindle with the turbidity slice of toast, pour the bacon from the pan over them and serve at once. BOXED OYSTERS Take a creamy leaf of bread, like the Vienna, cut off the top and scoop out the heart, leaving it a box. Fill the space with oysters seasoning with salt and pepper and butter, and sprinkling with lemon juice. Put pieces of butter on the top, then replace the cover. Set the loaf in a dripping pan, and pour the strained oyster liquor over it. Bake for fifteen minutes in a hot oven. Do not let the leaf scorch, and much more, cut as for size. Pour lemon juice or a little powdered mace is sometimes used for seasoning the oysters. A TOILET HINT A delightful Xmas gift to me was one half dozen out meal bags for the bath. That you might like to try them. To make take cheese cloth and cut into six inch squares stitch together except for a small opening thru which the meal may be poured. To two and a half pounds of out meat there should be four ounces of powdered orris root. These ingredients should be mixed and poured in until each bag is about half full.

WOMEN'S WAGES DROP RAPIDLY Women's wages have begun to drop. This is the statement of the assistant director of the Government Employment Agency. The drop is such as 40 per cent, but the average is 30 per cent. During the war, women beginners in many trades were paid as much as $10 per week, but now this has dropped to $6 and $8. The clerical position which was once paid $12 are now paying $10 and there is no trouble in securing applicants." "The employer, who was formerly handicapped because he could not get help, took women because he felt she was better than no help at all. With the return, of men to industrial life, women are being paid lower wages, or else crowded out." "If women were especially trained to do something specific this would not happen."

Chestertown, Md., Jan. 14—Seeing the needs of the school grounds and other necessary facilities, the school of Chestertown, Md., a school improvement League was organized by Mr. Tull with an attendance of twelve members, of which Mr. Tull was made president; Walter Bantum, secretary; and Michael P.

One said one thing and another said something else about my illness. I tried the hospitals. They did me no good, and I grew worse all the time. A friend he had curried recommended me to try Dr. David N. E. Campbell, the Lung and Nerve Specialist, 1369 North Carey street. At first I hesitated, but I finally went to him. After examining me and taking care of me, he told me things about my complaint no other physician had ever touched upon. He has treated me and made practically a new man out of me. I am now a street car conductor. Since then, he has cured my friend, four-year-old son, Harry who had convulsions, and could scarcely stand or walk. The children are more active and is running about. The parents are delighted and think Dr. Campbell is one out of hundreds. He has done me wonders, and I am not afraid to tell it. THOMAS A WEEN.
