Republican Candidate for Delegate to the Constitutional Convention From the First Senatorial District of Illinois. Hon. Walter Herbert Wilson, Republican candidate for delegate to the Constitutional Convention from the First Senatorial District of Illinois easily ranks with the best business men in this country and for many years he has been one of Chicago's most progressive, and prominent citizens and all of those years he has been a strong or steadfast member and one of the south side leaders of the Republican party. For a long time Mr. Wilson has been successfully engaged in the real estate business, doing business under the firm name of Walter H. Wilson & Co., with the main office on the 5th floor of the Rookery Building. He honorably served as City Controller of Chicago from 1907 to 1911, during the reign of the late Mayor Fred A. Busse.

Mr. Wilson has for many years freely donated each year a nice sum of money to the Old Folks' Home (Colored) and in many other ways he has ever stood ready to assist worthy institutions conducted in the interest of the Colored people. Therefore it goes without saying that all the Colored voters residing in the First Senatorial District of Illinois will on Tuesday, November 4, see to it that Mr. Wilson is elected as one of the Republican delegates to the Constitutional Convention.

PROGRESS IN NEGRO EDUCATION Hampton, Va.—The National Association of Teachers in Colored School at its recent meeting in Orangeburg S. C., elected John M. Gandy, Petersburg, burg. v., president. Bragg Anthony, Sumter, S. C., recording secretary; Silas X. Floyd, Angusta, Ga., executive secretary; J. S. Clark, Baton Rouge, La., registrar; and W. H. A. Howard, Tallahassee, Fla., treasurer. Southern Progress. The Association's resolution on Southern progress in Negro education follows: "We note with pleasure a general increase in the interest in Negro education in the Southern states as is shown in the encouraging growth in the number of new modern and well-equipped school buildings now appearing in Southern cities; in the remarkable number of new, sanitary, and well-appointed schoolhouses in the country district that have been built in recent years especially in Louisiana; in the growing interest in better-trained teachers as evidenced by the surprisingly large number of summer schools and teachers institutes conducted for colored teachers this year; in the tendency here are to increase teachers' salaries, and to lengthen school terms, and in the evident intention, especially illustrate in North Carolina, to provide high school for Negro youth at public expense, and as has been shown in exceptional growth of county training schools for Negro youth in the rural districts; and, whereas these improvements have come, not only through public initiative, but also through the hearty cooperation and financial assistance of the colored people, M. HON. GEORGE F. HARDING attroller of Chicago; one of the high arty in this city, who is working re alter H. Wilson and Col. F. A. Den Institutional Convention from the F inois. recommend these encouraging example of the hearty co-operation of the public school authorities and the Coloree patrons to all sections of the South and urge that such helpful efforts be continued, until ample provisions for the education of all colored children at public expense shall have been made. A Plea for Higher Education. "Whereas, owing to the accepted separation of colored and white people, the needs of colored people for intelligent leadership, for professional service, and especially for competent, well-prepared teachers increases with the development of the race, we urge that high school training should be provided for colored youth in all Southern cities and in each county as is proposed, for example, in North Carolina. Whereas, college training is also necessary to the proper education of these much-needed leaders and teachers, we urge further that such provisions be made for college training as the needs require. "We wish to express anew our appreciation of the highly suggestive and effective work of the Slater and Jeanes Funds in the education of Negro youth in the South; of the admirable assistance and the constructive work of the General Education Board; of the Rosenwald Fund in building schoolhouses; of the Smith-Hughes Acts: --- the timely assistance being given by the National Security League in helping to remove the blot of illiteracy from among us; and of Northern philanthropy which is still so sadly needed to supplement the slender funds available for Negro education in the South." BIG MEETING AT BETHEL CHURCH A Monster Mass Meeting will be held at Bethel Church, 30th and Dearborn streets, Monday evening, November 3, at 8:00 o'clock. The Hyde Park and Kenwood Associations have said "They shall Not Pass." Alderman Schwartz of the 3rd Ward joined in the statement that "Colored people meet, talk and do nothing." Alderman Jackson of the 2nd Ward says, "We will meet, talk and do something that 'will pass' and upset the calculations of the Hyde Park and Kenwood tribe." Come to this Race meeting, it is going to be a hummer. A Race bank and a chain of stores are already on our list. THEY SHALL PASS!

In this connection, we wish to reiterate, that, "the Southern Negroes who are giving Mr. Abbott and his class so much embarrassment have just as great capacity for higher education, culture and refinement as the Northern Negroes have but, unfortunately, they haven't had a chance, that's ALL.—The New Era, Shreveport, La., October 18, 1919.

Majors In these very inflammatory times, when chaos seems to have a poisonous touch like some infectious disease, it is well for us as Negroes to hold our peace the best we can rather than be going about with a "chip on the shoulder." It never is a good idea to give too much vent to flagrant expressions, to borrow trouble by aggravating conditions through a spirit of bravado. Of course nobody is afraid of anybody, and everybody knows now, or ought to know what will happen if we have another race riot. The civil authorities and the civic organizations among the white race, know the disgruntled element are all Democrats in the Third Ward who under the leadership of a few politicians have been put out of power by a preponderance of Negro votes who help to elect Mr. Passmore and defeated Mr. Schwartz who cannot forgive us for voting against him. Well, we must have peace, strife is alas! too costly, both in money and life. We are a free people, we love freedom, we love life and all that living means. We will not start anything, and we ppropose to keep the law, and to do nothing that might be construed as "eating on." or looking for trouble. But we are not saying anything about running. Negroes never run. We have had our second or third lesson of dying on the battle field, and we have come to look upon death as sweet when it is in defence of our home, honor, women and life itself. God grant that our riots are all over, and that a same spirit may take deep hold on the people who claim to be superior because they have a white skin to brag about. Let us see if this vaulted and much heralded superiority is a mere chimera, a theory not proven or a fact sustained by everything noble and gracious. The future for us in the north is most favorable. Necessarily some kind of an adjustment consequent of the war and its thousands of fearful horrors. But the Negro was brought here to fill important niches in the network of a complex commercial organization, and he has done his duty whether here or over there. The obligations that the nation owes to the Negro will not very soon be discharged because of the present discrimination of the Democratic administration that has done more to sow the seeds of discord among the races than all the other infamy of the white South. The uprising of the Bolsheviks in the Third Ward is merely the echo of a dying failure at Washington. The mutteries of discarded Democrats thrown out of office by Negro votera. They see now that we as a force of enlightened people cannot only fight on battle fields, but at the ballot box. No, as a people we must live in peace with all if we are allowed to do so. Now this does not mean that any man or woman, white or black shall suffer inhuman brutalities, and insults, and wounds without cause. We would not curb the spirit of the New Negro, but rather soften it. We would not protest his sincerity, nor contend that he was over zealous when like a real man he protests for every principle of a noble manhood should be maintained. There are no cowards among us, and the enthusiasm of stalwart racehood is pent up in our veins, and when it comes to us back tracking, or moving out.

INTERESTING TALK By W. H. A. Moore. Mr. W. H. A. Moore delivered a very able speech before the St. Mark's Lyceum last Sunday afternoon. His subject was "The Influence of English Poetry Upon Social Reform. The audience was very appreciative and for half an hour gave the speaker rapt attention. Mr. Moore had given his subject much study, and with no attempt at eloquence showed himself an able as well as a deep thinker. He dwelt mainly upon the farfetched manner music, song and poetry had acted upon the Negro in America. He recited the happy effects of the lights turned on the bright pages of our history. The whole musical scale he said was in happy accord with the harmony of our race life. The old Jubilee songs, the lullabies and sweet crowning of the cradle song together with the rythm and melody brought forth by Coleridge Taylor and others showed the delicate but sweet harmonies of our rudy race nature. Perhaps no speaker of the race has ever gone deeper into this all absorbing theme nor justified contents with better logic and language. Dr. M. A. Majors acted as the master of ceremonies and in a short but eloquent speech introduced Mr. Moore. The race is going ahead in a hundred things since it has aroused from its lethargy and taken on new life consequent of an awakened conscience. Differences in color should not even be allowed to near the gladdening scene of our present great activity. The one strong true evidence of our rapid development and progress is that we are taking all the vacant stores along the street and we are buying from our own business people and why not?

THE BROAD AX. CHICAGO. NOVEMBER 1, 1919. PROF. JAMES A. MUNDY SOCIAL AND POLITICAL DOINGS OF THE AFRO- AMERICANS IN NEW YORK CITY. SOCIAL AND POLITICAL DOINGS OF THE AFRO- AMERICANS IN NEW YORK CITY. By the Regular Correspondent for The Broad Ax. Woodson, Ark.—Things are getting normal in this section of the country, and the men who have gone into eternity will not return to take up things in this world, but must be contented where they are, for return they will never. I can only say the Lord hath given them to the world, sin and indiscretion hath taken them away, blessed be the name of the Lord. It is hard to tell where a white man is going to stop when he gets excited, and when he is fearing death you don't know what he is liable to say which will not truly represent the truth. The whole world was shocked when they read the "Negroes organized to kill white folks." That is as far from being the truth as heaven is from the place where the wind was never known to blow, and where the people have never had any ice water. The man who sent it out wanted to get sympathy in his onslaught, in his taking of human life, in his destroying life and property of my people, and thought that the white people from the states around would join him if it got a little warm. The sooner the devil reaches up and takes to his home that class of people, the more love and respect I will have for his satanine majesty, the devil. That place is almost too good for them, and for that boob, who put it out that they had captured so much amunition and guns at the Branch Normal college, which was the headquarters of the organization. The truth of the whole thing is that the Government had some guns and ammunition at the institution, because it had been one of the schools that was used during the war, and it is now one of the few R.O. T.C. for our people. This is right now. But under excitement, the mayor of Pine Bluff knew that they were there, and he rushed out and took them up, for fear that they might be used, and then some one I don't know who it was furnished the information to the press that such had been the case. The whole country then read what was read, and you can get but a slight idea, what was created in the minds of the people. I thank God that the Arkansas Gazette, Little Rock and the Pine Bluff Graphic, both nailed this false, and nailed it hard. Branch Normal is one of the institutions in the south that is preparing our people for manhood future. At the head of this institution is one of the brightest young men of the race, Prof J. G. Ish. He has the confidence of the government, of the state, of the city—and then he enjoys the confidence of his people. He is a refined cultured young man, and is pointing our young people to the highest possible citizenship. He is teaching them true manhood and womanhood, and doing his whole duty. We must all admire such a man, and condemn any effort that might be put forth to destroy his usefulness. He lives for the people. I have been the rounds just a little bit, for when I wrote to you last I was some where in this world, and I am still in the world, but it is hard to tell how much longer I am going to be able to stay down here, but if the Lord should call me tomorrow I will be ready and willing to go. But then let us see where I am and where I have been. I have been and there is where the Baptist Missionary and Educational convention had their meet and where they did make some show off, for they put on the table about $26,000 for their work. This represented the work of the two conventions, I mean the convention of the state, represented by Rev. A. L. Bounce D. D., president, and the women's convention which met at the same time, represented by Mrs. Edna Strickland of Pittsburg, Texas, president. These two bodies are going side by side, as God would have them go, and are putting forth every possible effort to make things go and go in the right direction at that. They are working for the uplift of our people, and meeting with success. I want to commend Dr. A. L. Boone Mrs. Edna Strickland, and Secretary M. M. Rodgers, of Dallas, for the great work, and will include in this the other include all the men and women of Texas who had anything to do with the success of this great meeting. It is wonderful how circumstances are driving our people together and how they are doing for themselves. This is what should be and this is what is being done. We can truly say "The Lord hath done great things for us whereof we are glad." I had the pleasure of meeting some of the big Baptists of Texas, such as L. K. Williams, D. D., who is pastor of that big church in Chicago. He came down to have a say, and he did have it. He is on hand every year. Did you know that he is pastor of a church with over 8,000 members, and has three assistant pastors. But he is true to his old state is there every time the convention meets. He had present two of the women of this church this time, Mrs. Trice and Mrs. Maxwell. Both belonged in the state before they went to Chicago, and both were welcome back home by the host of women, and you will believe me when I tell you both of them made some speeches, Mrs. Maxwell is connected with Bishop college, and the other one who is her sister, Mrs. Trice, is just visiting her old home and coming in touch with the people. I was so glad to see her and to talk with her. I made it from there to Marshall. I have not told you much about Marshall, and it is worth talking about because there are two great colleges there, Wiley University, and Bishop college. Of course you know of Wiley, because it was in this school where Emmett J. Scott, got his finishing touch that made him the man that he is today. It was here that he was prepared for the position of good secretary, and where he was prepared to do real good newspaper work, and then passed on up to Dr. Washington, as private and executive secretary; Secretary Baker, of the war department, and now the machine director of Howard University. It is indeed a high and responsible position, and he is fully prepared to fill it, and is doing so. He is secretary-treasurer to Howard University, and because he touched Wiley At the head of the school is one of the best men of our race, Dr. M. W. Dogan, a scholar and a gentleman. He has made many friends, so that when adversity, known as hard luck struck him, God had friends prepared for him already. There was a fire which destroyed several buildings. I was not there, but he touched the wire, and God sent down there Secretary P. J. Maveety of the Freedman's Aid Society, the educational center of the Methodist Episcopal church. This secretary is a man every inch of him. He did not come down, find four buildings in ashes and start a general howl, but looked and said that it could have been worse, and told the president to begin plans for new buildings, and the money would be forth-coming. Now that's what I call a true friend. I hope to live long enough to see him one of the bishops in the M. E. church, and if the Lord will just let me stay here a little while longer and his ambition runs that way it is going to be. If I had ten thousand votes I would give them all to him for any thing he wanted in the church. He is a straight forward man. Then he is dealing with a straight forward man. Sueh is life in this world. I got through with Wiley, made a trip over to Bishop, and then went to see Shreveport, Little Rock, and on here. But you will be surprised to know that the world is not civilized yet. There was Miss Clara Mays, of Indianapolis, who was down in Texarkan, exhibiting her talent. One day she got on a street car, and the conductor told her to get off and let the white woman get on and then step back. She had gotten up and refused to do so. He drove up the next corner, had her arrested, and the judge fined her $25 and assessed the court cost. This is civilization going backward. But I am not going to comment on if this week, but may do so later. I have many things to say to you, but fear you cannot them all now. Look for me later. CHAS. E. STRUMP. EDUCATED PEOPLE MEET AT UNITY HALL GRADUATES OF THE A. M. A. SCHOOLS In this great commercial metropolis surfeited with every human element to promote every grade of happiness and degree of unhappiness, and at a time in the condition of our race when levity and liberty seem to make the appearance of seriously educated people a disadvantage (so popular is foolishness) there assembled at Unity Hall last Monday evening truly the most typically educated group of young educated men and women ever assembled in Chicago. They represent in education culture and religious piety all the First and Second grade colleges and universities of the American Missionary Association.

There were seventy-five graduates present to speak in glowing terms of the institution where they to become inspired for noble useful upright lives. Mr. McNeil White the financial secretary and the Field Missionary secretary, and the president of Faledega and Tougalos universities were present to witness the inspiring scene. Interspersing the speeches and reports from the different colleges the association was treated to Jubilee songs, sung by Mrs. Coyne's company of singers, who are studying the harmony of Negro folk-songs, Mr. McNeil White gave thrill after thrill in his most remarkable tributes to the late Booker T.

Patterson and wife, of Cleveland, O., arrived in the city Friday night, and are now guests of the Idlewild. Colonel Patterson is doing great service for the Hunter Banks in the Ohio city. Mr. M. Cunningham of Arizona and J. A. Josey, of Madison, Wis., are guests at the Idlewild. Both are in Chicago on business. Prof. Wm. M. Dorsey, the renown music writer, arrived from London Saturday, and registered at the Idlewild, where he will be a guest for a few days, while he recuperates to resume his journey to Arizona, where he goes to spend the winter. Professor Dorsey's health has been failing him for the past year, and he thinks the climate of Arizona will be beneficial. Mr. Fred K. Waterfield and wife motored over from Detroit, Michigan, early in the week, and are now at the Idlewild. Mr. Waterfield is convinced that Detroit is one of the best centers in the country for our people. Employment of all kinds await them, and living conditions are quite pleasant. Don't fail to come to the Idlewild and get your first taste of turkey for the season. Mrs. Allen promises a dinner worthy of a king. What period do you think I recall most frequently and most willingly in my dreams? Not the pleasures of my youth; they are too rare, too much mingled with bitterness and now too distant. I recall the period of my seclusion, of my solitary walks, of the fleeting but delicious days that I have passed entirely by myself, with my beloved dog, my old cat, with the birds of the field, the hinds of the forest, with all nature and her inconceivable Author—Rousseau. Life Not Merely Lapse of Years. The mere lapse of years is not life. To eat and drink and sleep; to be exposed to the darkness and the light; to pass round in the mill of habit; and turn the wheel of wealth; to make reason our bookkeeper and turn thought into an implement of trade—this is not life. In all this, but a poor fraction of the consciousness of humanity is awakened; and the sanctities still slumber which make it most worth while to be.—James Martineau. For Dull Mirrors If mirrors be very dull and speckled, the following method is excellent: Take a small portion of whiting and add sufficient cold tea to make a paste: rub the glass with warm tea, dry with a soft cloth; rub a little of the paste well on the mirror and polish dry with tissue paper. Lavender Smokers Long before tobacco was known or smoked, sweet lavender was a favorite smoking mixture. Pipes have been dug up in Roman settlements, adorned with base-reliefs picturing the lavender plant. From which it is surmised that the Romans smoked lavender, which, according to writers of the time, is said to produce a feeling "active, ardent, and vigorous." Sculpture Modified If your enemy smite you on the right cheek, advises the Osborne Village Deacon, gently back away and retire to quiet shades for a spell and keep a close mouth, and not more than three or four people in town will ever know you were smashed.—Kansas City Star. . . .

One of the best aldermen that the Second Ward has ever produced, he was one of the members of the city council who lately made a tour through the east in the interest of the new zoning system for Chicago. Mrs. Lou Ella Young, 3556 Forest avenue, was in Joliet this week attending to Lodge matters. Business matters brought Rev. B. G. Hunter, Pastor of the First Baptist Church, Lake Forest, Ill., to our city last week. Lots are being sold fast in Morgan Park to members of the race and many who are owning property in Blue Island, Ill., are trading their properties for Morgan Park property. On last Wednesday evening, the club of the Carter System of Hairdressers met at 45099 Prairie avenue. Madam E. M. Carter, President. There were quite a number present and it is their intentions to bring the club up to the 100 mark. A fine program was rendered and followed up with refreshments. The Bailey Realty Company received a visit from Mr. A. W. Cornmask of Milwaukee, Wis., Saturday, who was in the city for the purpose of learning something of Cook County Real Estate. Important adjustments were made by M. T. Bailey, Mgr. The Milton Mercantile Agency, throughout many suburban towns. Under the direction of M. T. Bailey, the agency is meeting with wonderful success.

It is like demanding a beautiful photograph without regard to the features of the original. Medicine From Horns In China a large trade exists in deer, reindeer and wild sheep Borns for use in medicines, and Hongkong, as the chief center of trade in Chinese medicines in south China, imports a considerable quantity of such goods annually. Laissez-faire means letting alone; a general noninterference with individual freedom of action; the let-alone principle of policy of the government and political economy. The term was first used in France to designate the principle of political economy which would leave industry and trade absolutely free from taxation and restriction by government except so far as required by public peace and order. It has since been extended to include noninterference with any guillotess exercise of the individual will. CHIPS Have Wrong Idea Laissez.Faire. that the Second Ward has ever members of the city council who east in the interest of the new In the Days of Beaver Hats In the days of Beaver Hats. In the olden days in the United States soon after the Revolutionary war, a good beaver hat became a kind of family heirloom, and was handed down from father to son. For some strange reason it was considered to be rather frivolous and extravagant to be seen wearing a new beaver hat, and it was the custom when a man bought one to leave it out in stormy weather before wearing it, to "take the newness off." When little Junior saw slx jet black baby kittens the other day, he was so surprised to see them exactly alike, he said, "Oh, mother, come and look; why each one is a twin." To Take Baby's Picture Anyone who has tried it knows it is a difficult task to take an indoor picture of an active child. By placing the subject near a sunny window, but not in the direct sunlight, and with a sheet fixed at one side, high enough so that it reaches above the subject's head, good results may be obtained. If the child sits on the floor, the sheet will be high enough thrown over two chairs. How Starfish Eat All the starfish fasten themselves to the matter they wish to devour, turn their stomachs inside out, and enfold their prey. It doesn't sound pretty, but it's effective, and that's all the starfish care about. New Plant Fertilizer Experiments in England with a new bacterized peat fertilizer have resulted in remarkable increases in plant growth and productivity, while plants believed to be dying have been restored to better than normal conditions. "Zouave" From Algiers "Zouave" is the French name taken from that of a tribe in Algiers and this kind of light infantry was first employed in that country in 1831, the members being Algerians and dressing in semi-Moorish uniforms. Other countries, including the United States, have adopted the Zouave system since. In the Civil war, and the Italian assault upon Rome in 1870, they were conspicuous, in the latter case defending the papal supremacy. World's Finest Olive Oil The olive oil produced in the region of Bordeaux, France, has a lightness, a perfume, and a particularly delicate savor which have given it a widewide reputation and made it an important article of export and a source of wealth for its producers. Most popular is the oil from Nice imported under the Bordeaux trade-mark.

Stump, the Kansas Farmer Newspaper Correspondent, Who Has for the Past Three Weeks Been Tramping Around Throughout Many States in the South. Charles E. Stump, the Kansas Farmer Newspaper Correspondent, Who Has for the Past Three Weeks Been Tramping Around Throughout Many States in the South. The political campaign is engrossing the attention of New York Colored people just at present. The deflection of the United Civie League from the Republican ranks has caused a sensation. This organization of which John M. Royall is head has for years struggled for elective representation for Negroes in New York. The fact that two Colored assemblymen in succession have been elected to the legislature has been largely due to the efforts of the United Civie League. The League has been steadfastly Republican until this election. It is issuing a pamphlet under the date of October the 30th showing why Colored people should support the entire Democratic ticket with the exceptions of the Colored men nominated for aldermen and assemblyman by the Republican party. The pamphlet calls attention to the record of the Republican nominee for surrogate, Mr. James O'Malley in the famous ease of Benjamin Thomas where an innocent colored man was convicted and had to appeal to get the justice, repeal and entire vindication that was due him. As the supporting of the entire Democratic ticket with but three exceptions cannot but fail to affect the entire slate of the Republicans as a whole it is predicted by the ones that know that for the first time in the history of New York the Negro districts face the possibility of a Democratic landslide on Election Day. . . . A grand mass meeting both to commemorate Roosevelt Week and to support the Republican ticket in New York was held Sunday, October 26th at Palace Casino. An immense crowd was present. Hon. Edward A. Johnson was chairman of the meeting. General Wood who was expected to speak had not appeared at a late hour. The principal speaker was Governor Henry J. Allen of Kansas. He was well received. Other prominent speakers also spoke. Mme. Lula Robinson Jones, the Colored soprano, sang two beautiful numbers. The lady ushers were specially selected and captained by Miss Wilhelmina Adams. The entire 15th Infantry was marched out in military formation to attend the mass meeting. The regiment expects to secure an armory from a Democratic city administration but was out in full force at a Republican meeting. . . . The Lindsey Dramatic Players gave an artistic presentation of "East Lynne" at Mother Zion Church, Thursday, October 23rd. Miss Ruby Mason was the star performer. The performance was well attended. Samuel Miller, Colored, has sued Benjamin, white, of 155 W. 145th St. for $10,000.00 for the alienation of the affections of Miller's wife, Marie. The famous Sulzer's Harlem River Park, the place where so many historic Colored affairs have been given has been leased for a long term of years to the Heart International Film Co. Dr. A. A. Cooke of Rush Memorial Church has just completed arrangements for an extensive tour of the South commencing November the 6th at Atlanta, Ga. A well attended meeting under the auspices of New York's most brilliant colored journalist, Cleveland G. Allen was given at Salem M. E. Church to commemorate the memory of the late Theodore Roosevelt. Dr. Robert L. McElroy of Princeton University was the scheduled principal speaker. Telegrams of regret for non-appearances were received from Governor Smith of New York and Hon. Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. Other numbers were rendered, Mr. Cleveland Allen is the only colored man regularly employed on the editorial staff of any of the big white papers of the city. He is a graduate of the New York University School of Journalism. The Banneker Educational Society gave a banquet and reception Thursday, October 23rd, at 184 West 135th street. Mr. William Bridges, editor of the Challenge Magazine, was master of ceremonies. Mr. J. Frank Wheaton, the colored nominee on the Democratic ticket, for assemblyman in the 21st A. D. is a graduate of Storer College, Clarksburg, W. Va., and of Michigan University. He was member of the Minnesota legislature from 1899 to 1901 and is Past Grand Exalted Ruler of the Colored Elks . . . Lieut. Osecae McKaine who was arrested in New Orleans a few days ago at the instigation of Walter Cohen, also colored, in-a statement given out at his office brands as false the statements given out under glaring headlines by a very prominent Western newspaper. He states that he was not detained for over an hour in jail and was able to return and finish speaking at the meeting from which he was taken. Lieut. McKaine so convinced the officials of the New Orleans police that he was not a Bolshevist that he was permitted to go on bail and FINISH THE ADDRESS THAT HE HAD COMMENCED. Lieut. McKaine is field secretary of the League for Democracy, a veteran's association, and, editor of the New York Commoner. Counsellor F. B. Ransom, the well known Indianapolis lawyer spoke to a crowded house at the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday afternoon. Many of the large Colored papers in their last week's issue stated that Francis Frazier (male) had been held for trial in the case of the accidental death of Miss Rachel Perlman in an elevator. This was not true in two ways. First, the party in question was Frances Frazier, (female) of 2460 Seventh avenue, and secondly, Miss Frazier was declared not guilty of criminal negligence and DISCHARGED by Magistrate Simms in the Washington Heights Court. SEE US FOR RELIABLE NEWS. Great interest was shown by the record crowd that listened to Colonel Charles Young, U. S. A., when he delivered the feature address at the Carlton Y. M. C. A., Brooklyn, Sunday, October 26th. Allen C. Bean of Davenport, Iowa, and formerly a lieutenant in the U. S. Army is attending the New York University School of Commerce. The Usher Board of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, gave an all star concert to a crowded church last Thursday evening. Mme. Marie Barrier Houston, soprano; Mr. A. John Ingram of Philadelphia, elocutionist; Mr. T. Arthur Gaines, tenor; and, Mr. Marion Gumbo, Violionello, were much enjoyed by the audience. The speakers at the Educational Forum Sunday were Mr. Hudson Pryce, city editor of the New York News, impartial; Mr. William Bridges, editor of the Challenge Magazine for the Democrats, and, John Ramsey, Grace Campbell and others for the Socialist Party. Mr. Toussant Douers of 200 West 136th street, was married Sunday in Ossining, N. Y., to Miss Garnetta Robinson Cater of Pittsburg, Pa. The wedding was a select and quiet affair and this notice will no doubt be quite a surprise to their many friends. . . . The 21st A. D. Socialist local is rising its energies in an effort to have freed on bail and then afterward properly defended the two Colored men from New York now under arrest in other parts for alleged offenses. The men are Lovett Fort Whitman who is held in $5,000.00 bail in St. Louis, and, Joseph J. Jones, who is being held in $3,000.00 bail for distributing a pamphlet called "Justice to the Negro" during the recent police strike in Boston, Mass. Reverend J. F. B. Coleman the visiting president of the College of West Africa, Monrovia, Liberia, has joined and been selected as an instructor in the Men's Bible Class at Salem M. E. Church. His efforts have brought out many new members and caused renewed interest to be shown. Dr. William L. Bulkley, the only colored principal of a public school in New York City, addressed the St. Mark's Lyceum last Sunday afternoon on the "Enforcement of the 14th and 15th Amendments." His address was a part of the nation-wide campaign that the famous Lyceum is waging to arouse public sentiment in favor of these amendments being carried out to the letter. Professor Rudolph Grant has been appointed choir-master of the choir of Salem M. E. Church. Mr. James Hinton of New York has gone south and is now one of the managers of the Pilgrim Life Insurance Company of Augusta, Ga. The L. R. Jones Counell 1206, I. O. St. Luke, gave an umbrella party at Charity Bureau Hall last Thursday. When the party was announced 'two weeks ago, the sponsors did not think that as it turned out, the night was so rainy that umbrellas were certainly in order. A chess tournament for the Colored championship of New York is being arranged by Mr. Joseph Fanning of 120 West 135th street. So far the entrants are: C. Travis Warren the present titleholder, Harold E. and Franklin M. Simmelkjaer, Christian G. Grannan, and, Wesley Wright of Jacksonville, Fla. Finland. Finland occupies about 144,000 square miles of territory, of which 125,680 square miles are land. This territory, which is slightly larger than Norway, has a population of only 3,064,000 people. It is said that illiteracy is almost unknown. Times Have Changed It is said that the post office in Philadelphia will lose $15,000 a day as the result of going from the three-cent back to the two-cent rate for letters. That happens to be exactly the sum which Benjamin Franklin was able to turn over to Great Britain in annual revenues from the post offices in the colonies in 1774, after he had put in four years of hard work in creating a postal system. FOR HOOP SKIRTS Paris Dressmaker Is Insistent on the Subject. Pannier Outline, in Exaggerated Form, Also a Speciality—Predict Crin- lines for Winter Wear. Of all the famous Paris dressmakers Callot is the one who is most insistent on the subject of hooped skirts and "barrel" outlines. It is not that one does not see other styles than these chez Callot, only that the pannier outline, even in exaggerated form, is a speciality of the Maison, says a fashion writer. Take for example the really lovely evening dress. A ball costume made of sapphire-blue taffetas with a wide, stiffened flounce of lace tinted to match the silk. This model was really simple in detail But essentially decorative and "tres Callot." The corsage was cut in a deep V back and front, and the sleeves were nonexistent, chains of sapphire beads falling gracefully over the upper arms. Of embroideries there were none and this is an unexpected happening in this day of elaborate, hand-worked decorations. The top of the dress was very full and gathered at the waist, but the silk was so soft and supple that there was no appearance of bunchness. Then the deep lace flounce was gathered and set on with a heading and underneath there was a slip of dull silver tulle finely plaited. This slip skirt did not show at all, except through the meshes of the lace flounce as the latter almost reached the ankles. It is said, and confidently, that next winter we shall find crinolines worn again. This I do not believe; at least I do not believe they will be worn by the average woman, though they may make their appearance on the stage, and, perhaps, in certain circles where sensational toilets are appreciated. What is certain is that we are draw- What is certain is that we are drawing nearer and nearer to wider and THE Robe of "fox glove" pink silk voile filled with taffeta to match. fuller skirts; to something very like what Paul Iribe has called "the barrel outline." And this, when free from exaggeration, is really charming. Full skirts, made of the most supple stuffs and gathered at the waist, are very comfortable and becoming; also they are easily made. Many of the new casaque-blouses have frills at the sides, over the hips, to give the wide effect; they are quaint and in many cases very pretty. FAD FOR KNITTED SWEATERS Hip-Ruffling Warmers, the Exclusive of Yesterday, Become the Commonplace of Today. Only a very few weeks ago there was a prediction on the part of those who were in the vanguard of fashion for knitted sweaters that ruffled just below the waist and showed a sleeve that was baggy just above the wrist. They were worn by the most exclusive, it was sald; and at the resorts you might see them worn by those who haunted the most expensive hotels or who dwelt in the most palatial of cottages. But now—these hip-ruffling sweaters are as common and as usual as enormous ear horns. Every other young girl that leaves shop or office for her little two weeks vacation either takes that sort of sweater with her or knits one while she is away. And so it is. The exclusive of yesterday becomes the commonplace of today and the commonplace of today finds its place in the mission box of tomorrow. Stocks and Jabota High lace or net stocks are no longer a novelty, but are more varied numerous than ever. And there are many high models, also in embroidered linen, with cravat and jabot or yoke-like sections. Few of these, however, are really practical or becoming. There are new high stocks of white washable satin, with vestees attached, which button straight down the front, with a single row of small, white satin buttons. Lace of the coarse mesh variety, such as fillet and Cluny, make charming little collars usually in sailor's shape, for a round or square neck. Only. One. A little girl had a twin brother and sister. Now, she was used to the cat having kittens and only one of the kitten family being kept. So when her father brought the twins down to show her she gazed at them earnestly for a small space of time, then said, "Daddy, I think we'd better keep that one!" Pointing, as she thought, to the prettier one! HANDY BAG FOR WAIST BELT Made of Watered Silk, Lined With Sateen; Cut in Two Pieces as Shown in Diagram. The sketch shows a handy little bag for fastening upon the left-hand side of a waist belt. It is made of watered silk and pieces of the shapes given in diagrams A and B, on the right of the illustration. The bag is edged with silk cord, the ends of which are knotted together at the bottom of the bag and frayed out into a tassel. The fold-over flap is bound at the edge, and fastens down with two push buttons. Small hooks are sewn on either side at the top of the bag in the positions indicated by the crosses, and eyes are sewn on to the lower edge of the waist belt in corresponding positions, so that the bag can be fast A B Waist Belt Bag. ened in its place in a moment on going out, and as easily removed upon the return home. This little bag will be found very useful for holding tickets, etc., and just the few pence required for fares each day. Made in a larger size, with a cord handle attached, it forms a neat type of wrist bag, and if made for that purpose, the back should be stiffened with a piece of card cut to fit and sewn in between the silk and the lining. NEW SILK SHADES FOR LAMPS Designers Are Introducing Winsome Fabrics for Use in Furnishings of Bedrooms. Shades for the bedroom lamps are getting more lovely each day this fall and the designers are introducing a number of new fabrics that make a new note in the furnishings of the room. Of course the silk shade never goes out of favor, especially if it is of a pink or mauve color. One of these is of thin rose-colored rose crepe, shirred over a metal frame and lined with a thin silk. It has a new touch in the silk embroidery decoration which comes to light in a heavy and close button-hole stitch worked around the edge of the shade and encircling the flowers which form the decorative motif. For the yellow bedroom, the linen shade was designed, but it gives a fresh, cool look to any room when it is matched by table scarfs and dress mats. Some are of ecru linen and are trimmed with wool button-holing and conventional wool embroideries in two-tone effects. A distinctive shade is of all colors of linen from pale canary to golden brown. The body is of pale yellow, but the design of love birds perched on a bough is of a darker shade, outlined in black. TULLE TURBAN IS BECOMING Headgear That Is Pretty and Easily Fashioned; Brown Shades Are Popular. The tulle turban is on the top wave of popularity just now; and no wonder, for it is so pretty and so easily fashioned, and the softness of the tulle makes it very becoming. Among the prettiest of these turbans are those in brown shades. Usually brown satin is used for the entire hat, though now and then georgette is employed. The tulle of the exact shade as the hat material is swathed around the crown in Turkish fashion, several thicknesses being rolled into a sort of scarf and drawn around the crown. A variation treatment is seen in the close-fitting turban with a soft crown and no brim. At the sides a circle of the tulle has been wired and left outstanding to give a wide flare around the hat. FASHIONS IN BRIEF Black chantily is among the old laces revived. New glove colors for fall are very soft and rich. Printed georgette is now being used for separate blouses. Tiny curled feathers are used as trimming on fabric hats. broderly are worn with taffeta skirts. Redingote styles are made in strictly tailored effects in broadcloths and twilled fabrics. Kol.sky squirrel "tubing" trims tricolette wraps which may be worn at any time of the year. Jade Favorite Gem in China Light green jade is the favorite gem of China, and it is difficult to get the stone in uncut form even in that country. Sometimes a rich Chinaman's estate will consist in part of a lump of jade. Sometimes it can be obtained in pounds. But even the leading jewelers of Hongkong usually obtain it in cut form. Favored Frock Not Affected by Downfall of Royalty. Women Cling to Some Version of This Type of Dress—New Evening Style. The general downfall of royalty seems to have affected not one whit the princess frock. Always there are women of fashion who cling to some version of this type of dress. This year there are quite a few New York ```markdown ``` White Taffeta Evening Gown. designers who are adopting the princess frock, states a fashion writer. Of course, the princess of this year is a very different affair from that tightly molded dress which policed the figure some years ago. Very often the distinctive touch is confined to one side and draping is arranged so skillfully that the line is becoming to both slim and not so. A new evening frock is of white taffeta embroidered in silver and combined with silver lace, which gives an echo of the princess mode on one side only. Like so many of the evening frocks at present, an ostrich plume is employed as the climax of trimming. Both are as familiar in dress scenery as they are in desert scenery. LONGER AND WIDER SKIRTS Conservative Styles Are Predicted by the Fashion Art League at Chicago Convention. Feminine styles the coming fall are to be much different from those now prevailing—much different. Skirts will be longer—much wider—more conservative. And in this connection there is a war just starting—a war by American women to make the style more conservative. This was the news coming from within the Fashion Art league, in convention recently in Chicago. The doughboy is at the bottom of the whole thing. In France the Parisienne beauties wear extreme styles. When the doughboy struck that country he was dazzled. Styles became more and more extreme, and when he started home he was full of new ideas of styles, but the American girls rebelled—they went on a fashion strike, demanding new styles. The correct skirt length, according to Madame Ala Ripley, president of the league, should be six to eight inches above the ground. Of course, the width will be built around the person, but generosity will be pleniful among the designers, it was pointed out. Forty-seven inches was agreed on as the average width for the slender person. FASHION BREVITIES Yellow is introduced on navy blue serge frocks for the growing girl by means of purple wool embroidery or plipings. Purple cliffon over red velvet in a negligee is almost exotic in its beauty. Cadet plaits are the means employed to acquire the popular ripple effect in a coat suit. An imported overblouse of gold colored georgette has monkey fur about the sleeves and skirt hem. Irish crochet blouses are new for fall. Blouse coats are really becoming only to small women. A little bag of fine gold-plated mesh is always smart. The gowns that combine pink and blue are decidedly French. The bigger and more crushable a mash is the more stylish it is. Fear in the Child. "There is a world of truth in Prof. Angelo Moso's emphatic declaration: "Every ugly thing told to the child, every shock, every fright given him, will remain like minute splinters in the flesh, to torture him all his life long." — "Psychology and Parenthood," by H. Addington Bruce. R. W. Hunter & Company, Bankers CHICAGO Ask the Colored American Citizens This Great Question With whom do you do your Banking? Colored American Citizens, there is a great difference between doing your banking business with a bank that employees young Colored American Citizens as Clerks, Tellers, Cashiers and Investors, and one that does not. Do you know that there is some prejudice shown by white banks and bankers in Chicago that employ every other nationality in their banks but Colored American Citizens? We have young Colored men and women who have graduated from some of the best schools and colleges in this country, and are as efficient as any other nationality? R. W. Hunter & Company, Bankers, employ sixty-two of the most efficient employees of any bank in the world. We do general banking the same as any other bank in America, and have Savings Accounts and Checking Accounts. Checks drawn on our banks are honored all over the United States and our drafts are honored in all parts of Europe. Every Colored American Citizen in the United States should be a booster for such a business enterprise as the R. W. Hunter & Company, Bankers, Chicago. THE RIOT HAS TAUGHT THE RACE A LESSON Never before in the history of the Race has an incident displayed our business faults as did the recent riot in Chicago. Ninety per cent of the business houses in the Black Belt are owned by white people, and when they closed their doors the entire Colored population was nearly on the verge of hunger and had these conditions prevailed just one week longer, some of our people would have suffered from starvation, regardless of whether they had funds to purchase food or not. The most of our people had their money in white banks in the Loop District and other sections of the city, where our people could not get to the money. Let us get wise in this country like the white races and bank our money with our Colored banks and do business with one another, the same as the white races do. Let us boost our own business enterprises. R. W. Hunter & Co., Bankers, have handled over three million dollars of the people's money without a complaint or a lawsuit from a single depositor or investor. R. W. Hunter & Co., Bankers, have leases on property in Chicago that are worth over two million dollars, located in some of the best sections of Chicago, and these leases are netting the firm good profits.

Measure of Greatness Great men, great events, great epochs, it has been said, grow as we recede from them; and the rate at which they grow in the estimation of men is in some sort a measure of their greatness.-Principal Shairp. Our Different Worlds I once stood in a dome with different colored glass in each window. Thus four men touching each other might each see a different scene; a red ocean, a green city, blue fields, and yellow mountains. A rare man might climb to the top of the dome and see the whole circle of the landscape under the white light of a pure atmosphere. But most of us look through one window, each upon a different world, each world colored by our own individuality—Robert S. Barrett. Find Date Valuable Food Dates form the staple food of the Arabs in a large part of Arabia and are served in some form at every meal. Sirup and vinegar are made from old dates, and by those who disregard the teachings of the Koran a kind of brandy is distilled from them. The date pit is ground and fed to the cows and sheep, so that nothing of the precious fruit may be lost. Whole pits are used as beads and counters for the Arab children in their games on the desert sand. Bees Distinguish Colors Experiments have shown that bees distinguish different colors, but different colors acquire significance for bees when the insects have learned that certain colors are associated with certain nutritive advantages. The bees are not "reflex-machines"—they are not compelled by any organic chromotropism to prefer certain colors to others. They accumulate experience and remember that certain colors are associated with certain nutritive benefits. Evil Always to Be Fought There can be no compromise with evil. It never is right to license wrong, whatever golden returns it may offer or however difficult it may be to get rid of it. In our social life and in our personal life, wherever evil shows its hand there must be battle, not compromise—Exchange. To Prevent Fire. To Prevent Fire. Paint paper lamp shades with solution of alum. They will not catch fire so easily. Four Into One. "A monthly holiday, closed all day every Wednesday is also to be observed from April to September."—Glasgow Evening Times. Two Fatalities. The freight train caused the explosion by hitting a truck loaded with acetylene tanks. The truck and driver was killed.—Buffalo News. Deadly Arabian Sirocco. The sirocco or sand storm of the Arabian desert is exceedingly treacherous. It often digs pits two hundred feet deep, scattering the sand for rallies around. Proof of Biblical Truth: Perhaps the most impressive fact of record concerning disease in ancient times is found in the Bible, in the First Book of Samuel, where we are told that the land where the Philistines were was overrun with a plague of rats or mice and that thereupon the people were smitten with bubonic plague to punish them for their seizure of the Ark of the Covenant. Thousands of years later our modern science discovered that rats are the chief disseminators of that pestilence.—New York Herald.

Few May See Her Face The Mohammedan woman may show her face only to men whom she may not marry. This means that a man may see the face of his mother, wife, sisters, daughters, aunts, and none other of the women of his class. New Way of Tinting. Glass may be tinted permanently by immersion in the medicinal water of Bath, England, and this recent discovery is to be made use of in the establishment of a stained glass industry. "Good Night" Is Too Long The countryman's "How do?" or "How be?" is outclassed by the London printing trade's "Good" or "Good, George"—omitting the "night" and the "morning."—London Chronicle. The banana is a perennial herbaceous plant, growing from year to year from an underground root stock with a stem or stalk from 10 to 15 feet high above the ground. The plant has drooping leaves, but no branches like fruit trees of the north countries. Each stalk produces one large cluster of fruit. After fruiting, the stalk is cut down to the surface of the ground and grows up again from the root. Colorado's Wonderland The Garden of the Gods is a tract of land, about 500 acres in extent, near Colorado Springs, Colo. It abounds in weird and fantastic pinnacles of red and white sandstone, some of them more than 300 feet high. Among the chief features are the Cathedral spires, the Balanced rock, etc. The gateway of the garden consists of two enormous masses of red sandstone, 830 feet high, sufficiently far apart for the roadway to pass between them. Garden of Eden in Mexico Garden of Eden in Mexico? A prehistoric race that lived in Mexico centuries before Cortez ever arrived there to crush the power of the Aztec kingdom, was a civilized people who were flooded out of existence by a deluge that swept the valley of Mexico, as relics picked up near the capital city prove, and some writers assert that Mexico was the site of the beginning of man and that it was in this valley that Noah set forth for his 40-day tour of the flooded world. Red Tape Citadel "Circumlocution office" is a description used by the great novelist, Charles Dickens, in his book, "Little Dorrit," to ridicule official delays and indirectness. It is described as the chief of "public departments in the art of perceiving how not to do it." The name has come into popular use as a synonym for governmental routine, "red tape," procrastination and delay in transacting public business. When Holland Banned Ora When Holland Banned Orange. There was a time when Holland forbade the sale of oranges and carrots Orange was the color of the stadtholder's family, and when the democratic feeling against this family was at its height the fruit or orange color was taboo. "Stay in School." Does it pay to continue your studies? Education means a successful and useful life; it pays the individual. Education means efficient workers; it pays the nation.
