JACKSON OPENS FIGHT ON 50 WARD PLAN --- READ EVERYWHERE BY EVERYBODY THAT'S ANYBODY 'BOB' ANDERSON SLAIN BOB SEE PLOT TO SEGREGATE RACE Proposed Redistriction of City Wards to Cut Representation in Half, Is Claim In keeping with the wish of the electorate of the city of Chicago, the regular Council Committee has begun their work of re-districting the wards of the city. In this new jersey-mander this committee, which is composed of Democrats, plan to give colored people two wards in order that their representation in the city council would not be lessened when the fifty-ward plan will be put into operation. Under this new plan, the territory that would be turned over to colored people will extend from 26th St. to 43rd St., and from Wents worth to the lake. Bither Objects The Assistant Corporation Council Bither, who is also the Committee man from the Third Ward, has offered serious objections to the Council's original plan. It is said that he gave as his reasons for his opposition the fact that Negroes were "crossing their line" and "invading white territory" when they went beyond 39th St. It is believed that pressure is being brought to bear upon Bither by the Kenwood and Hyde Park Property Owners' Association, which association has so bitterly objected to colored people living south of 39th St. He offered another proposition which would only give Negroes one ward and consequently one alderman. This plan would cut off the white residents north of 31st St., west of Wentworth Ave. south of 39th St., and east of Cottage Grove Ave. Bither After Thompson Support Bither has shown an unusual eagerness to put his proposition of segregation through. He is trying to enlist the support of the Thompson administration. There is a possibility of his plan going through Major R. R. Jackson, up to this time is the only one of the big politicians to see the joker in the Bither plan and to register vigorous protest against its adoption. "Big Guns" Make Statement "Big Guns" Make Statement In an interview with Alderman Jackson, a Whip reporter was told that under the original plan for two wards the race would greatly benefit. Alderman Jackson also stated that colored people would have at least 75% of the votes in each of the proposed wards and therefore would not only have an opportunity to have two aldermen, but two ward teemers as well. Alderman Jackson said the he would die in his power even if he would kill in his power even if he had his coveted place to prevent colored voters from being bloodwinked. Ex-Alderman De Priest, speaking for himself and Asst. Corp, Counsel Edward H. Wright, said that they agreed with the Bither plan for one ward only because it would consolidate the colored vote and in addition it would not prevent Negroes from moving into Hyde Park and eventually controlling it by their majority of votes DENIED COFFEE, SHOOTS CLERK. ROBS CASH REGISTER BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 17.—Starydos Christos, white, saw fit to refuse an unidentified colored man a cup of coffee in his restaurant at 10th Ave, and 34th St. North, here last week. As a result Christos is dead, and the hungry one has escaped with the contents of Christos' cash register. The assailant is said to have become infuriated at Christos' refusal to serve him. SEARCH SOUTH FOR CABINET MEMBER WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 17.—It was disclosed here today that the Republican landslide on election day has opened the eyes of the Republicans to the possibilities for the Republican party in the South, when Republican leaders prepared to deal the Democratic South another blow by selecting a member for Harding's cabinet from below the Mason-Dixon line. The largest difficulty which presented itself was the selection of a Southern Republican of cabinet caliber. Prominent among those mentioned were A. T. Hert, of Kentucky, and Jake Hamon, of Oklahoma. HER UNINVITED GUEST WAS HER HUSBAND Springs Surprise When He Walks in on Runaway Wife and "Other Husband" An unexpected guest called upon Mrs. Eva Booker, alias Eva Brown, 3800 Rhodes Ave., Monday night. It was her deserted husband, Sinclair Booker, 3244 Rhodes Ave. Mrs. Booker and William Brown were conducting a little love nest in the "Baby Doll" apartments at 3800 Rhodes Ave., where they masqueraded as man and wife. Brown loved his way into the heart of Mrs. Booker away back in the Creole city of New Orleans, where Booker and his wife lived undisturbed until Brown made his appearance. It was then that Mrs. Booker deserted her husband and 5-year-old boy to come to Chicago with Brown. Booker retained the services of Atty. Richard E. Westbrooks, of the law firm of Ellis E. Westbrooks, to unravel his marital tangle. Atty. Westbrooks located the errant lovers and visited their nest Monday night in company with Booker, Office William Holmes, of the Cottage Grove Station, and the ever-present Whip rehorter, where he obtained a full confession from Mrs. Booker concerning her infidelity. Booker says he doesn't want his wife back, he only wants freedom from her. Divorce proceedings will be instituted at once. To Try Dr. Robinson on Confidence Charge Dr. Albert R. Robinson, known as the "black Edison," will appear before Judge George Barrett, of the Criminal Court, Nov. 27, on a charge of operating a confidence game, alleged against him by some dissatisfied person, who is said to have assisted Dr. Robinson in the prosecution of his patent. Dr. Robinson is well known as an inventor, and for the past twenty years has had a stormy career in his efforts to retain his patent rights for various inventions. These fights have on several occasions gone as far as the Supreme Court, and have attracted the attention of some of the best lawyers in the country. Dr. Robinson's inventions are said to involve many of the improved appliances now used on electric and surface car lines. The inventor is a familiar and spectacular figure on State St., with his high-powered, brass-trimmed automobile of European make and model. CLAIM AFRICANS ARE THE ONLY REAL JEWS NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 17—B. Levitin, writing in the "Jewish Forward" here, tells of his discovery of a strange cult of "black Jews" which he found with headquarters at 2367 7th Ave, here. Mr. Levitin evidently believes there is some merit in the creed of the cult, who claim that Esau, the ancestor of the African races, was swindled out of his eldership by Jacob, the reputed ancestor of the Jewish race through the "mess of potage" incident related in the Bible. On this basis, the "black Jews" claim to be rightfully the "chosen people of God." GIVES BIRTH TO QUARTETTE JOAQUIN, Texas, Nov. 17.-Dr. E. A. Rushing of this town reported to the authorities last week the birth of four boys to Mrs. William Harris, colored, near here. The report states that the boys are well formed, healthy, and weigh an aggregate of 26 pounds. N. A. A. C. P. Asks Investigation of Florida Riot NEW YORK CITY, Nov. 18.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People makes sensational charges that nearly 60 people had been killed in the Florida election riots. The Association has directed a letter to Atty, Gen. Palmer asking for federal investigation and claims to have procured evidence of the illegality, and murder already in hand to disqualify the entire vote of the state. As to what disposition the Atty, General will make has not yet been determined. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20th, 1920 RCAEW Would Suppress Whip And Jail It's Editors It was reported by several people of prominence, more or less, that the Boston Dentists, and Drs. Dewell and Henry, successors to Wood Brothers, both located at 35th and State, and who maintain branch offices at 47th and State and 31st and State, were seeking to have warrants sworn out for the editors of the Chicago Whip, and Federal aid had been sought to have the publication suppressed. This is the reaction from the news stories that The Whip has carried containing complaints registered against these establishments. Newell and Henry Sued for $25,000 Mrs. George Mitchell, through her attorney, Richard E. Westbrooks, has filed suit against the above named firm for a large sum, and other suits against both of these establishments are pending. In an interview with the editors they stated that The Whip was exposing methods used and practices adopted, in the interest of humanity, and that threats of jail, or jail itself, would not swerve them in their course, because they felt that they were right. Churches and Citizens Will Aid The many churches of the city have expressed their hearty co-operation with The Whip in the great and fearless campaign for the good of the people, and have rallied around them in this battle Letters are piling into offices of the institution daily, and public sentiment runs high against the unethical white dental parlors who seek wealth at the expense of black people. RETURNS AFTER 23 YEARS IN LIBERIA NORFOLK, Va., Nov. 18.—Mrs. Annie Wheeler and family have returned to the states after 23 years' sojourn in Africa. They arrived on the British steamer Skegness from Dakar. Mrs. Wheeler, in speaking of her experiences, said that she had left America more for the purpose of finding a place where she and her family could enjoy real freedom from the prevailing prejudicial customs of the past. "We have determined to return to the place of my birth and aid in whatever way possible my own people in freeing themselves from the present conditions in this country." BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 18. The Supreme Court of this state affirmed the death sentence passed on Charles Wimberly Dec. 31st in the Criminal Division of the Circuit Court. Wimberly was convicted of murder in the first degree of the killing of John Jackson. Forced Attentions Result in Assault SAN-ANTONIO, Texas, Nov. 18—W, H, McClintock, (white), of Fort Worth, Texas, attending the 'Oil Men's meeting here, may lose his left hand as a result of a fight which occurred when he attempted to force his attentions upon two girls who were en route home. But Color of Contracting Parties Means Nothing to Judge Heap in Morals Court Murmurs of resentment and cries of protest on the part of white representatives of certain women's clubs and welfare associations filled the air in Judge Arnold Heap's branch of the Municipal Court last Thursday morning when a double marriage ceremony was performed. The racial identity of the contracting parties caused the uproar. Charles White, of 740 E. 45th St., was married to Amelia Phillips, white, of Terre Haute, Ind., and John Arthur Triplett was married to Hazel Rose, white, of Indianapolis, Ind. It appears that the four had established and were maintaining a love nest out south, until interfered with and haled into court by inquisitive neighbors. The social workers (white) who throng the Morals Court insisted that that part of the law which decrees marriage in such cases had no application where white women and colored men were involved. Asst. State's Attorney Frank C. Schraeda recommended that as all parties were entitled to the penalties and benefits of the law alike, there was no basis for altering the law on account of the color of the skin. Atty. Richard E. Westbrooks, of the law firm of Ellis & Westbrooks, took charge of the case for the defendants, and the ceremony was performed in due order, the protests of the white welfare workers to the contrary notwithstanding. EXPECT NEW RACE RIOTS IN NORTH CAROLINA CHARLOTTE, N-C, Nov. 17—Following the alleged assault upon two white girls here, and the murdering of their escort, last week, by two men, unidentified, who later escaped, residents of this section are preparing themselves for indiscriminate reprisals and race riots. Feeling is very high. THIS MULE WAS TOO FAITHFUL MACON, Ga., Nov. 17. — Richard Marcus, alleged maker of illicit whisky, is languishing behind the bars here because his faithful old mule knew too well the way from Marcus' home to his still. When Marcus saw prohibition agents coming to raid his still last week, he made his getaway, leaving his mule and wagon behind. The officers mounted the wagon and clucked to the mule, who forthwith and without guidance, made her way to the still. Marcus is held in default of $2,000 bond. Another Victim of the "Painless Dentists" On Wednesday, November 10th, Edward E. Robinson, 3006 Calumet Avenue, heeded the glaring and al-luring signs of the Boston Dental Parlors at 35th and State Street and because his tooth was aching decided to have it drawn by the "painless" method so blatantly advertised by their electric signs. He went luring signs of the Boston Dental Parlors at 35th and State Street and because his tooth was aching decided to have it drawn by the "painless" method so blatantly advertised by their electric signs. He went in and an old man dentist examined his mouth and turned over the "patient" to another more younger and fitted to the task of "painless" extraction a la Boston, which seems from all accounts the hospital route for the patient in the end. Breaks Off Tooth The young man made an attempt and then three more, and at each attempt only broke the tooth off nearer the gum. Each vain attempt disproved in no uncertain manner the glaring signs which said "painless" dentistry, as Robinson experienced the most excruciating pain at each attempt of the "young" dentist. The young man then, according to Robinson, trained the patients over to the old man dentist and he had his fling at the now lacquered jaw of Robinson, but to no avail, and Robinson had to cry quits on the operation, as he was blinded and faint from the pain. Jim Crowed at Downtown Office Jim Crowed at Downtown Office The South Side "painless" dentists then sent Robinson to their downtown office and, according to Robinson, as others, he was shunted off into a side waiting room evidently arranged for "colored people only" and compelled to wait upon the convenience of the dentists who were evidently engaged with white patients. The expert dentists then locked the tooth and told Robinson that his tooth was too broken and gums too sore for him to try it and that he had better go home and come back next Monday, that is, five days hence. This advice was given despite the fact that his gums were sore and lacerated. Paid for His Experience He had paid $1.00 for the half extraction and then was compelled to go to a colored dentist to get the proper treatment of the tooth and to be free from "Jim Crow" reception rooms. Bishop Tyree Dies NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 18. Bishop Evans Tyre of the A. M. E. Church, died at his home here on Monday. Bishop has for many years been a prominent figure in the activities of the A. M. E. Church and was one of the strongest characters on the bishop's bench. 5CENTS PAY NO MORE BY WHITE PARAMOUR UNDERWORLD CAREER ENDED BY JEALOUS LOVER'S BULLET Last Chapter of Wierd Tale of Blood Money and Wild Women Ends in Death of Spectacular Character Murder culminated the final act in a tragedy played in the flat of Cleo Weir, white, 31 E. 28th St., Apt. Q, when she shot and fatally wounded Robert Anderson, a well known character in Chicago's black and tan underworld. The shooting occurred early Saturday evening in the presence of two other women (white). and another male companion, who composed the death party in the Weir woman's fateful apartment. Information obtained through underworld channels paint a weird picture of blood money and sordid social conditions. It appears that Anderson had been receiving money from a white woman whose only name obtainable was Ada. Previous to his friendship with Ada, Anderson had been known as an intimate friend of the Weir woman, who had an apartment in the American building, 28th St. and Wabash Ave., which she later closed to come to live with Anderson at the 28th St. address. Associates of the slain man say that he received large sums of money from Ada on the strength of his protestations that he had broken off from Cleo Weir.

Julius Underwood, 3206 Forest Ave, appeared before Judge Kickham Scanlan last Thursday morning, asking for the custody of his wife's child, and charging his wife, Mrs. Odessa Underwood, 3022 Cottage Grove Ave., with desertion and adultery. Mrs. Susie Johnson, mother of Mrs. Underwood, came from Birmingham, Ala., to testify in behalf of her daughter. According to testimony offered by Mrs. Johnson, the child was born one month before the marriage of Underwood and his wife. In spite of this fact, Underwood presumed that the child was his, until it developed in court that at the time of the birth of the child, a man was in jail for assault upon Mrs. Underwood. The court decreed that the child should remain in custody of its mother. Underwood was represented by Atty. Sol. Clanton, and Mrs. Underwood was represented by Atty. Lawrence A. Newby. "HANDS THAT DO THE WORK" "HANDS THAT DO THE WORK" Upon the door of the New York Dental Parlors, they of "painless methods," appears a gold-painted hand with this inscription beneath it: "Hands That Do the Work." The door upon which this sign is painted opens into the museum, now in process of completion, which the New York Dentists will introduce into the South Side. This museum, it is said, will contain specimens of human interest. It will not contain something, however, that the public should know about. Anyway, the sign reads, "Hands That Do the Work," and it appears in gold letters. We have heard some people state that those hands caused them untold suffering and some financial misery. We know that those gold hands will do one thing and do it well, and that extract many good dollars from black people. We also know that the hands of the main establishment wave Negroes into a small segregated room at their main establishment at 135 S. State St. Yes, they segregate you. Great White Way in the Black Belt—At the corner of 35th and State Sts, that miniature white way, lights flash and dance, and huge electric signs scream their wares to the hosts of good people who chance to pass, mostly colored. At 3457 S. State St. the New York Dentists ply their trade, and have stretched a large sign diagonally across the busy corner in order that the world may know how to reach them. The signs spell "Dentists," and the little window screamers spell promises of painless methods, etc. None of these signs state that they segregate negroes in their downtown establishment, and that they have several suits pending against them for malpractice. To Build Hospital PITTSBURG, Pa., Nov. 18.—A committee of prominent citizens headed by Dr. Dudley G. King and Mrs. Daisy E. Lampkins, is making a strenuous campaign to raise $75,000 for the purpose of opening the first hospital operated by our group in western Pennsylvania. PRICE FIVE CENTS WHITE LMOUR CAREER ENDED IS LOVER'S LET Blood Money and Wild Women Spectacular Character let in a tragedy played in the flat of Apt.

It appears that they from a white woman whose only is to his friendship with Ada, Ander- friend of the Weir woman, who had building, 28th St. and Wabash Ave. live with Anderson at the 28th St. say that he received large sums of if his protestations that he had broker Go to the Weir Flat charge that he was still on Tuesday terns with Cleo Weir, and had not returned to his old love, but had given her $15 of the money she (Ada) had given him. This Anderson denied. To prove his break with Cleo Weir, Anderson called a taxicab and took Ada with him to force a denial from Cleo. Arriving at the residence of Cleo Weir, he went to her apartment and broached the subject. Cleo is said to have denied that she said that she had said that the $15 given her by Anderson was Ada's money, but admitted that Anderson had given her $15. Her admission of this fact aroused Anderson's anger. He struck her, knocking her down, and attempted to strike her again, when she escaped and ran to her dresser drawer and secured a pistol. Pointing the pistol at Anderson, she pulled the trigger, but the gun missed fire, and her first effort at murder failed. "Fire Again; You're Not Game" Evidently not believing her intention to shoot him, Anderson shouted, "Fire again; you're not game." The Weir woman fired the second time this time with deadly effect, the bullet striking him in the abdomen. At this juncture two members of the death party, whose names are withheld, made good their escape. Ada rallied to the situation, called a taxicab, and conducted the wounded man to the Provident hos-pital. He died Sunday afternoon. Cleo Weir made no effort to escape, but waited calmly until the police arrived. She was held by the coroner's jury on a charge of murder. Anderson is said to have been married several years ago to a Miss Hazel Hutchinson, of St. Louis, who now resides in the vicinity of 41st St. and Indiana Ave. PHILADELPHIA MINISTER LOSES SLANDER SUIT PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 17,—Rev, Charles Blackwell, pastor of the Central Baptist Church, 29rd and Lombard streets, this city, last week brought suit for slander against one of his former *p* istants, the Rev. Pinckney P. Samue. The pastor said that Mr. Samuels reflected on his integrity in the administration of the church funds in the presence of a congregation of 200 or more people. The defendant based his charges on reports brought him by several members of his congregation. The verdict was rendered for the defendant. Second Murder Blamed On Feud MONROE, La., Nov. 18.—The body of Bynum Gray, a respectable citizen of this community, was found riddled with bullets almost in the identical place where Richard Nelson mysteriously met his death several weeks ago. Gray's body was found at Calhoun, Onachita Parish. It had been penetrated by three loads of buckshot. Leeman Crawford has been arrested technically charged with the murder. Suitor Shoots Sweetheart LOUISVILE, Ky., Nov. 17.—Unrequited love caused B. Morris, aged 50, to shoot and seriously wound Miss Florence Paxton, aged 30, 436 S. Tenth St, of this city. Miss Paxton was removed to the City hospital in a precarious condition. UNDER THE LASH OF THE WHIP Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. Constructive Criticism of Men and Measures. In the Hope of Correcting Errors and Evils. The South is extremely anxious to have Negroes to return. The slump in production and the price of cotton and the neglected crops are worrying the Rulers of Lynchland into nervous frenzies. These frenzies are expressed by insults and Lynching Bees. This action will cause negroes to remain eternally away from Dixie. Georgia was determined to bar colored women from the polls. In accomplishing this unsavory task many white women were likewise denied the privilege and right given them by the Susan B. Anthony Amendment to the constitution. This travesty upon justice and this utter disregard for the laws as laid down by the constitution of the United States of America should be dealt with summarily. Wendell Phillips High School, one of the largest and most renowned high schools in the country, is patronized almost entirely by colored students. It is the only high school in the city of Chicago that is not represented by a football team. Either the Athletic association is eaten up with checkers and other indoor sports or the other teams will not tolerate an aggregation of colored youths upon the gridiron. In either case something is radically wrong and a general shakeup is needed. In the mad scramble for political jobs many Uncle Toms are loudly crying: Here are we, Lord, send for us. If the jobs that will emanate from the ingoing administration are distributed upon the basis of intrinsic value and real merit the clamoring Uncle Toms will get nothing. In the last election the Bloody Shirt of the Civil War was waved so arduously by the Southerners that one would think that the Flag and Union was only meant for the Yankees. The South is not so charitable as the Germans are to Allies who are already sending Exchange Professors to Old Enemies of a few days ago. TO THE YOU KNOW 'EM EDITOR Say, you know that society lady who danced and flirted so audaciously while her husband was offering his life's blood on Flanders' fields, think now, you must know her, because she is not a bit more careful in her actions with a certain policeman than she was before he returned. Watch your step, you will lose your reputation and your husband. I know you know that professional man who left here on the Golden State limited, who was met at a little town just a few miles away from here by his little sweetheart who joined him in his trip. Nosey missed the train by just a few seconds, and owing to the condition of his exchequer, was unable to hire a taxi, but look out, the You Know 'Em Editor saw them. I know you know that married man out in the neighborhood of 47th St., who is playing high jinks with the "high yallers" of the younger set. Well, if you know him, you tell him to look out, because that New York doll won't stand for that sort of foolishness, and she often slips in here unaware to him. Calm yourself, old boy, and get your bearings. I know you know that organization of pickpockets. I mean that unobstructed association of light-fingered gentry. Well, if you do, just tell them that one of their number got his arm broke last week. He put his hand in a policeman's pocket. Be careful boys, there are a lot of strange cops around now. You know this cold weather, well if you don't, just ask the Jackson Loan & Diamond Co. They say the chilly winds have blown numbers of the boys in for funds. You know those home brew makers, well tell them to take the war tax off. The war's over, y'know.... You know that lady who shot the pastor, well she threatened to shoot the newspaperman who put her name in the paper. Well, if she wouldn't do such things, her name wouldn't be in the paper, and if she makes that threat again, a warrant will be taken out for her arrest. You know those bankrupt tailors, Tom Williams, Ed Green, and Stetton, "The Square Tailor," well did you know that they all went bankrupt the same day, hour, and minute? Well, old Lofts pnt that bankruptcy scheme through again. Who got bit this time? Do you know those two ladies who got into a fight the other day on 30th St., well one of them certainly does know how to pull off wigs. When the hat and wig were puffed off at the same time together, the bare and baldheaded one ran and stuck her head in an ashean under the "L." You know that cow's fluid called milk, good for babies, both young and old, well did you know they charge 10c for a glass of it in a certain restaurant—I mean they charge a thin dime. Stop thief, let go my pocket-book. You know those painless dentists, those sporty boys, who ride around in Piercemobiles, well they say they are going to put the WHIP editors in jail for talking about the painless way they extract gold, not from your mouth, but from your pocket. Well, Nosey heard the editors say they weren't going to pull any McSwine, but they are going to back out of jail and do some more exposure. Read The Whip Boosters Column By Georgia Huston Jones Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Speak No Evil On every hand in this fair land, proud Ethiopia's swarthy children stand, beside their fairer neighbor; The forests flee before their stroke, their ham- mers ring, their forges smoke — they stir in hone- est labor. --- They tread the fields where honor calls, their voices sound through senate halls in majesty and power. "To right they think, the lynns they sing up to the skies in beauty ring, and bolder grow each hour. —Paul Lawrence Dunbar. "No citizen shall be prohibited from doing anything that any other citizen may do on account of race or color." May these words so simply stated yet so comprehensive in their scope be safeguarded in their entirety and be jealously watched lest in the interim clapsing before they become part of the basic law of Illinois, some harm befall them. The Third District of Illinois gave us Edward H. Morris, delegate to the constitutional convention, Father of the above mentioned Civil Rights Bill, and promises to give us for the first time in the history of the state, three representatives in the General Assembly at Springfield in the persons of Warren B. Douglas, Adelbert H. Roberts and Morris Lewis. With S. B. Turner, from the First District we have all told four members of the race—all good men and true—to stand "on guard" and to see to it that this latest child of the brain of the able Ed Morris is not mutilated beyond recognition or ruthlessly slain in the storm that is sure to center about it when the new constitution drawn up by the members of the Constitutional Convention is submitted to the General Assembly of the State of Illinois. It is such men as these that the race is fortunate to have in "high places" during such crucial times as now obtain. Dr. Wm. F. Garnett, 4336 Forestville Ave., for twenty-five years or more a resident of Chicago, is a man whose attainments should not be mantled by a smoke-screen of silence Too often the spot-light of publicity is thrown on the unworthy but we have no place for such in this column. Dr. Garnett, unpretentious though he is, is not only possessed of a most lucrative practice in his chosen profession but of considerable property as well, which stamps him at once as a substantial citizen. It is not for this alone, however, that I would laud him, but for those inherent qualities, expressed in intellectual force, commanding presence and a charming personality that mark him as a man amongst men. Added to these estimable qualities is an intense love of race and an earnest desire to help his people to secure "a place in the sun." Dr. Garnett is a born leader and the Third Ward is proud to acknowledge him as such. Dr. P. Chas. Downs, 3454 Indiana Ave., is an artist in the use of the instruments of his profession. By their skilful use he managed to relieve the injured hand of the "Official Booster of the Whip" of a considerable amount of finely shattered glass which became imbedded therein last Monday evening as a result of a street car accident. Dr. Downs is a "first aid" expert. Now that the women have the vote they propose to use it with telling effect. Already such leaders amongst "NOSEY" SEES ALL KNOWS ALL O EVERY NIGHT at about 11:45 that aged and decrepit spouse (or rather "souse") of the very satisfiable society lady saliasses forth to get some ice cream. Well, Nosey saw him try to induce a stunning little girl in fox turs to accompany him to the ice cream parlor. Nosey did not hear what he said, but his invitation must have stated something about things other than ice cream because the little lady wielded her umbrella and forced the old gent to heat a hasty retreat back to his Grand Blvd, residence, without the ice cream. Nosey found out yesterday that he told his wife that he slipped and fell on 37th St. Maybe he did "fall." They say that they all "fall" sooner or later, but the old gent seems to "fall" every night that he goes out for "ice cream." NOW and then Nosey looks into folk's faces to see if he can find any character there. He saw some character on Grand Blvd. last week while between 35th and 37th Sts. on the west side of the block. Bad character is what he saw. It was just the faces of those dissipated sots who frolic and revel all night long and sleep during the golden hours of the day. Nosey sees them every night easing along the street as they cautiously leave those houses of ill or doubtful repute that the police authorities have been closing one eye to as they pass. Pale, painted, powdered women with blank brazen stares on their faces and cold glassy eyes that peer at you as if from a mask. Nosey knows that their souls are dead, Trailing along with them are their paramours, escorting them with dog-like fidelity. You have seen the paramours with their eye rims all red, cheeks pale, powdered and sunken and the inevitable lines of dissipation drawn all over their countenances. Stand on Grand Blvd. any evening between 7.30 and 8 and see human nature as Nosey sees it. OH, YES, Nosey dropped in to the Armistice Ball at the Eighth Regiment last Thursday, all dolled up in his light grey suit. Nosey looked good because one of Chicago's trained and experienced "vamps" told him so. Well, Nosey was dancing one of "Chicago's own dances and had to listen to a lady trying to convince a handsome (that is, he was handsome in his uniform) lieutenant that she was only twenty-two years old. Nosey heard her use the same arguments to a dozen different young men in New York some fifteen years ago and the lady certainly was not ten years old then. Even Uncle Eph states that she used to give him pennies to put in Sunday school. She certainly must have had a drink at the "tountain of youth". Nosey knows where her birth certificate is hidden, but will not disclose it if she really gets fun out of the little game. SAVE ME! MURDER! POLICE! were the cries that greeted Nosey as he turned the corner of Wabash and 37th St. Nosey thought that a million morons had broken loose, but it turned out to be only a "gold tooth" holdup. Two husky burglarhs had just held up one of the State Street "strollers" and in her freight her gold set of teeth "chattered" out. The burglarhs asked her where she had set a set of teeth made and she had told them at those "gold teeth dentists" of painless fame at 35th and State St. The burglarhs pushed her "gold" teeth back into her mouth and told they were no good to them as they wanted real gold. They took the poor girl's sweater and pocket-book containing 20 cents and a telephone slug and left her to call for help which she did. Nosey thinks he will invest $2,000 in a set of those teeth. If you can't eat with them at least make the burglarhs leave you alone. YOU SHOULD have gone with Nosey to the police station and seen the cabaret "queen" who has been arrested for murder. Such a study is seldom afforded one as the face of this once gay and light-hearted girl who was so often seen at the cabarets and places of amusements "along the Stroll." Deep lines are on her face now and little crow's feet appear at the corner of her eyes. It was a picture which tells all of the sordid story of the life of the bright them as Mrs. Blanche Gilmer, Mrs. Johanna Snowden-Porter, Mrs. Irene Goins, Mrs. Lindsey Davis, Mrs. Olivia Bush-Banks, Mrs. Bertha Montgomery, Mrs. Edmondson, Mrs. Nell Callaway and others, have by their earnest efforts in behalf of "Our Women," aroused them to a sense of their responsibilities as citizens. Now is the psychological moment for these able women to pool their varied abilities so that their individual influence might be welded into a unified effort for civic betterment. You have paved the way. The women of Chicago are eager to come into their own. Harness their enthusiasm into channels of constructive action while it is at high tide. Wage a campaign of education as to the use of the ballot and ballot rights. In the past you have struggled bravely on neath the double burden of SEX and COLOR—and achieved much. Now that SEX no longer bars the path of progress—What may we not hope from the women of Chicago? Boost and we will all boost with you—Knock and you knock alone.

FIELDS A survey of exchanges of Southern white dailies indicates an active propaganda which is being systematically spread throughout the South to discourage the Negro in his migration from Dixie. This propaganda assumes various phases; oftimes editorials appear admonishing the colored man that his friends who are migrating to Northern cities are face to face with dire distress. A case in point, the Savannah (Ga.) News, Friday, Nov. 5, published a double column editorial, headed, "The Negro Returning." The regular appearance of editorials such as was carried in the Savannah News in daily papers throughout the South, leaves us safe in concluding that there is a definite, organized understanding existing between Southern newspaper with the sole purpose of spreading propaganda calculated to discourage further migration. In the editorial mentioned (and all are alike), the writer says that during the last two summer months a quarter of a million Negroes have come North and East, and foolishly concludes that these Negroes were encouraged to settle in certain states for the purpose of voting the Republican ticket in the presidential election. In this conclusion, the Savannah News (as most Southern newspapers) reasons from a basis void of facts, and shows a remarkable ignorance of election rules and regulations in the North and East. In another paragraph the writer adds that the Negros desire for a larger social outlet (meaning, or course unrestricted contact with whites) has lured our people to seek the East and North. In this conclusion is another glaring misapprehension of the real cause for the Negro's forsaking the land of his birth to explore new fields and acclimate himself to new environments. The thinking colored man who is leaving the South for the North is forced to do so because of a desire to protect himself and his family against the economic slavery of the South as well as against the cruel invasion of his family life by the brutal social environment characteristic of the forced attention by Southern whites upon colored women. No Return Noticeable We are unable to ascertain from what source the Savannah News gets its facts and figures that a quarter of a million Negroes have returned South in recent weeks. A casual glance over statistics published by railroads and chambers of commerce justifies the assertion that the Savannah facts as to the number returning is as baseless as its cause is for their return. The News also says that the war has had its effect on all classes. This is true. It has awakened the Negro as it has other races; 60st, as to the value of his services, second, as to the just compensation. Which he should receive for the same. It has also lights, sustained jazz, cocktail, dance and laughter without a care. Now a murder charge is hanging over her head which is bowed in remorse over her hasty act of vengeance. Oh, Nosey does so much wish that he could take a great number of the little "butterfly-girls" that he sees in the cabarets to that cell and let them read the story that is written on the face of this "queen" of the cabarets.

This, of course is in contradistinction to the teachings of the South, which attempt to lay out as the natural environment in which the Negro should live, the ante-bellum South. No Scarcity of Work The Savannah News seeks to frighten Negroes into saying South by representing a scarcity of work in the North and East. This disposition on the part of the News to throw this frightful picture on the green has for its object a specific purpose, and that purpose is to rehabilitate the South in the agricultural world through the return of the very people who for a half-century have been robbed of their rightful earnings by Southern planters. The assertion that work is, becoming scarce in the North cannot be substantiated as a matter of fact. It is readily admitted that certain large corporations are dispensing with some of their employees, but the records show that five-sixths of these employees were pursuing technical and scientific work, but that the laboring classes are still being retained in greater numbers than before. The News also says that in this return, the Negroes are serving themselves best. How can this be true? A man can never serve himself best by leaving economic freedom to groan in economic slavery, nor can he serve himself best by leaving an environment where his children can be raised and schooled in at atmosphere of equality before the law to return to a community where he has no standing in the eyes of the law. If there is really an honest desire on the part of the Savannah News to determine these facts in the light of the truth, their investigators need only to make a short visit to a locality in their immediate vicinity, for instance, to Orlando, Fla., where it is reported that from 30 to 60 Negroes were killed on election day. There he will find that practically every Negro in the county has turned his face North. If the Negroes from the vicinity of Orlando, Fla., have not gone to Northern or Eastern states, they certainly must have left the United States entirely, for they have certainly forsaken the South.

It is really a Jazzman Operetta, whatever that is, and is full of pep and jazz throughout. Prof. Lowling, a musical fanatic, after hearing the first four bars of Bamboula, an ancient African melody, not knowing from whence the melody originated, conceived the idea of tracing its origin in order to prove that the Africans, as other people, have contributed to music of the world. It is indeed very interesting and the music and Tutt have staged a real production and success should be the reward for their bringing to the public such stupendous production. A review in detail will be made in the next issue. The show will remain four weeks.

When Creighton completes his present contract at the Coliseum he will tour Europe for forty weeks, singing in the principal theaters of the continent. Sang for Pathe and Victor— Mr. Thompson has sung a number of songs for the Pathe Record Co., and for "His Master's Voice" the English Victor Co., and holds the unique distinction of being the only colored man who has ever sung classic music for a standard reproducing company. He reproduced his brother's song, "Some Day Will Never Come," for Victor. Creighton Thompson, by virtue of his triumphs in Europe, and his entry into the field of high-class reproducing companies, is being acclaimed by American and European critics as the foremost Negro baritone of the world. "SEVEN KEYS TO BALDPATE" The attraction for Thanksgiving week at the Avenue will be "Seven Keys to Baldpate," George M. Cohan's dramatization of Earl Derr Bigger's novel of the same name. That alone is enough to assure its success, for it's a rare combination, and one that is certain to prove an interesting bill for the followers of the Lafayette Players. The story of the play centers about a young novelist, William Hallowell Magee, who is attempting to complete a novel within twenty-four hours on a wager, and his hair-raising experiences at Baldpate Inn, which he has chosen as the spot for his labors. Baldpate Inn is situated at a lofty mountain, and at the time of our story, the dead of winter, is inhabited only by a caretaker and his wife. Magee is supposed to possess the only and original key to Baldpate—but after he arrives there and starts in on his story six other keys make their appearance and divers individuals intrude upon his privacy, with a series of startling results. Just as the audience believes it is all nicely figured out and the mystery solved, they find that their solution is all wrong, for the events which have been transpiring upon the stage have been but scenes from the novelist's story and Peter, the Hermit and the rest of the crowd but characters come to life. It's a rattling good bill, and one that will prove a real thriller. There will be a special Thanksgiving day matinee at 2:30 P. M.

Hazel Harrison in Piano Recital Hazel Harrison's Piano Recital at Kimball Hall on Friday evening, November 12th, gave proof positive that she is in the front rank as a pianist of broad intelligent technique, coupled with musical feeling and interpretation of the highest order. It is significant that the daily papers in speaking of her recital, with one exception, did not mention her race, but gave to her unqualifiedly that merit of praise which was her just due. The vocabulary of the writer is begared for adequate terms in which to express the real merit of Miss Harrison's art in giving forth clear, pure, ringing tones, and in carrying out the unbroken legato effect in melodic passages. In this she truly excels. There is great brilliance in her playing, too, as was most plainly evidenced in the sparkling Chopin Scherzo, which was the number most familiar to her audience. The weight of the program was of necessity a physical strain on the performer, but the ease and excellence of performance made it no burden to the audience, but, on the contrary, a source of wonder and delight throughout. Special mention should be made of the playing of the Bach-Bersoni "Toccata," and the Liszt "Fantasie." Miss Harrison's alert and capable fingers kept pace with her fertile brain, and at all times kept the ideas of the composers in front. Continued success to this pianist—beyond doubt the first of our race, and one of the first of any race. The large audience present at the concert given by the Johnson-Taylor-Johnson Trio at Grace Presbyterian Church on Monday evening, November 15, gave evidence both of the music loving nature of the people of Chicago, and the high esteem in which Mr. Taylor is held by his friends. The writer reached the concert too late to hear much of the program from a viewpoint of 100°, but in time to hear the seminary calm voice of Mr. Johnson in Ditt's "I'm So Glad Trouble Don't Last Always," and the last two numbers on the program, both of which were very interesting, and were warmly received.

The cause of this one big question can be laid at the door of Warren B. Douglas, who, in spite of the opposition of the local "bosses," masquerading under the name of Mayor Thompson, led the local ticket and succeeds himself as a member of the Illinois Legislature. As a member of the last General Assembly Mr. Douglas accomplished more in an economic way for the race than any of his predecessors. Douglas did not listen to the "bosses.' He carried out the will of the people. Therefore he was not endorsed by the so-called Regular organization. Most men would have been afraid to attempt the run against such organized opposition, but not Douglas. Like Theodore Roosevelt he said, "I have served the people, and I am going to ask them to send me back to the Legislature on the strength of what I have done for them. I have perfect faith in them. I am willing to abide by their decision. So far as the 'bosses' are concerned I don't care what they do or think." The aforementioned facts are sufficient to make one absolutely sure that Mr. Douglas is sincere in his appreciation of the support given by the independent Republican voters.

Their success is told in a very few words; with only $8,000 paid in, they own two stores valued at fifteen thousand dollars, with a liability of of only three thousand dollars and all within a period of less than nine months. This is positive proof that colored people can do real business with honest management by standing together like they have never stood before. Million Dollar Building for Co-operatives Dr. W. W.

THE BELL TAILORS 40000 at Green Street, Dept. 115, Chicago, Illinois Contrary to dope, Fritz Pollard's Lincoln University team went down in defeat to Hampton's mass of beef. It was a case of Greek meeting Greek—the best man won. Hampton uncorked a mystifying forward pass which seemed to bewilder the secondary defense of Pollard's stars. Long of Hampton made a 90-yard run for a touchdown which spelled defeat for the boys from Pennsylvania. Lincoln is saving up all of her reserve force for her game with Howard University on Thanksgiving day. Final score, 14-0. M. B. TO HAVE BOWLING ALLEY IN VINGENNES HOTEL TO HAVE BOWLING ALLEY IN VINGENNES HOTEL Mr. Al Wilkerson has arrived in the little old town and is making his presence felt forthwith. He has secured a portion of the Vincennes Hotel for a first class Billiard Parlor and Bowling Alley. Mr. Wilkerson hails from St. Louis and being from the Show-me State is planning to show the people of Chicago something unique in the way of amusement of topnotch character. Howard took charge of West Virginia College team and defeated them after a hard game at a small score of 7-0. Both teams fumbled frequently, but Howard seemed to have the edge on the boys from West Virginia. The West Virginians claim that this is the first game that Howard has won from them since they have been playing. SOL BUTLER DISPLAYS RACE PRIDE "Soil" Butler, the great and well known versatile athlete from Duhue College, and a member of the Olympic Team, has joined the Forty Club Basket Ball team. He has put his race ahead of his personal gain, by refusing to deliver his athletic prowess to some white athletic association. The latter organization always hammers the amateur athletic organization of our race by refusing them games. The Forty Club basketball team has the following former intercollegiate and interscholastic stars, besides Butler, on their team this year: Virgil Bluitt, all-high school forward from Lane; George Duff, all-State forward, from Normal College; Creed Bhardgreat, great Wilberforce University player; Robert Anderson, a former star of Incorporators; Thornton Winters, all-high school center; Englewood; Maurice Bowles, Wendell Phillips; Frank Legare and Leroy Carry, Maywood High School. This team is practicing Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday nights at the Wabash Y, M.C.A. Gymnasium. They will make Chicago proud of them by winning the colored amateur basketball championship of the world. Their first game will be held at the Eighth Armory, Dec. 6, 1920, playing Emerson Y, M.C.A. Evanston, for the Illinois State championship. This event will be the greatest society affair of the season, as the Forty Club is noted for such gatherings, with Elgar's Orchestra to play the sweetest dance music known.

Soldiers are still suffering from the terrible gases emitted during the late World War. Many are incapacitated for further usefulness in civil life. The terrible yellow fumes that broke into the lungs of the unfortunate still eats away, even though the gas itself was discharged from its infernal apparatus some time ago. Poisoned vapor of the Great World War still continues on its death mission, but it does not cut near so keenly, neither does it penetrate the system with such deadliness as the fumes and vapors discharged from the cannons of the Confederacy. The Civil War came to a tragic close some fifty years past. The cannons ceased firing and the vanquished, unsung and unhonored, turned homeward; yet the cannon and the smoke from Southern battlefields still burns and stifles American civilization. The fire and smoke from the South were intended to burn out freedom and to stifle justice. The spirit of the Confederacy still survives. The South honors the veterans of that bloody fratricide, and the moulding grey uniforms are treasured, not as memorials of the "lost cause," but as silent reminders of slavery and human chattel. The daughters of the Confederacy still gaze upon "Old Glory" with a reserved and qualified patriotism. The emancipation proclamation ostensibly means to them the abridgement of the South's inchoate right to exploit black labor. The smoke and fire of the Civil War continue to destroy common sense and vitiate fair play. The nostrils of the Northern Democrats were so filled with this ancient stench at the last election that they proved its terrible effects by decrying a great group of citizens on account of their color and the unavoidable stigma of former slavery. The vapor and poisonous fumes of the Civil War eat into Southern souls so violently that white men with guns drove black men from the polls. Poison gas has intensified hatred in white Americans to such an extent that Negroes economically and politically are being gradually pushed into a quasi-slave status. Negroes themselves are filled with the poison gas of the Civil War to such proportions that color issues between variegated members of their own groups are becoming highly intensified. The color question is being forced upon the Negro race because of the abnormal state of mind caused by the vapors and fumes that rise from mouldering Southern sentiment. If America would relieve herself socially, politically, and economically from these effects, she must forthwith find a remedy for the poison gas of the South. If the arbitrary line of demarcation between the North and the South is to be forever stamped out, and if America is to become truly a Union, some panacea must be found for the terrible malady of Negro hatred, which eats into the vitals of the Republic and threatens to throw it into pandemonium. This duty falls not on any one great physician, but upon all good Americans who would stamp evil and disorder from their homes.

In the past it has done great american. It has withered his ambition and ripe exploitation. case it has an entirely different effect. Torrence McSwiney's hunger strike and subsequent death has caused worldwide comment. Friends of and foes of the Irish cause are unstinting in their praise for the man who was willing to die for a cause he thought righteous and just. The act of this martyr has brought additional respect to the sons of Ireland. American newspapers have taken advantage of McSwiney's heroic act to further impress the American Negro that such manly qualities are only possessed by members of the white race. This kind of propaganda is not new. In the past it has done great harm to the colored American. It has withered his ambition and ripened him for slavery and exploitation. In this case it has an entirely different effect. The rational minded Negro, instead of accepting without question such distorted truth, has pondered and compared. Thus the singular heroism and nobility of McSwiney's sacrifice is lessened. McSwiney was an educated man. There is a probability of him having a slight belief that British authorities would yield to moral pressure from without and within and release him from prison. Surely he had the case of Sylvia Pankhurst and others who had been released upon which to predicate such a belief. Hundreds of Boers before the precipitation of the Boer war went on hunger strikes. They were untutored. They had no reason to believe that they would be released. They were black men. After years of abject slavery and oppression black men of San Domingo voluntarily suffered death three ways more excruciating than McSwiney. Modesty makes us loath to mention the men-of this type that the American Negro has produced. Every Negro who has lived below the Mason and Dixon line and dared to stand for full manhood rights is qualified to be classed as a martyr. To be more definite we cite the recent case of Julius Perry of Orlando, Florida. He had never experienced even quasi liberty or freedom. It is needless to say that he was devoid of training. He had only a simple desire to exercise his God-given constitutional right to vote. From his oppressors there came a protest. He knew full well an attempt to override this protest would cost him his life. The manhood and courage of his forefathers, hitherto dormant in his black breast, inspired him to choose death rather than slavery. If there is such thing as degree in martyrdom, a slight glance at the circumstances incident to Perry's death and that of McSwiney would make Perry a few degrees greater martyr than McSwiney. A continued perversion and distortion of truth by the white press will doubtless cause the American Negro to lose confidence in the white man's sense of fairness. The I. W. W., alien emigrants, Japanese enmity, places America in a position that she can ill afford to lose the confidence of her most loyal and dependable citizens. If the white race has such a superabundance of courage and stoicism we trust some of it will be transfused into their editors. In the future perhaps they will have the nerve to tell their readers that no race has a monopoly of courage, or anything else. Under like conditions we are all the same. MEN AND MOUTHS Article 4 Mouth Infection Mouth Infection The trite saying that "an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure," is as true as it is trite. Clean teeth do not decay and clean gums do not become infected. To make certain about the condition of your teeth, visit a competent dentist every three to six months. Have the teeth inspected for small cavities, calculus, ill fitting crowns, bridges and loose fillings. The fee for this will be small, compared to the loss, or the impaired function of the teeth. If you do not know any competent dentist, consult someone who does and have them recommend a dentist to you for his ability to render the desired services and for his honesty in charging for same and not for his cheapness. Chronic oral infections are now recognized as the cause of many serious disabilities. About 75 per cent of adults have been shown to have infections about the teeth which have destroyed enough of the bone to be easily demonstrable by X-ray examinations. Attention was called to the relationship of the mouth infection to Systemic disease as early as 1891—by Miller, Studies by Drs. Billings and Rosenow of focal infections in general and by Dr. Gilmer and others of oral infection in particular—demonstrated these clinical facts. It is therefore important that careful inquiry be made of the causes which lead to the establishment of these mouth foci and the means by which they may be prevented or eliminated. First to be considered among the causes of oral infection is Caries or decay of the teeth. When we realize that particles of food lodge in these various' cavities and between the teeth, there fermenting and in many instances becoming putrescent (or rotten), it is easily understood that the consequent formation of ptomaines (or poisons) may, by direct absorption, or by passing into the stomach, cause a toxemia of serious nature. When the tooth pulp or nerve becomes exposed and dies, there is an abscess formed which may lead to extensive destruction to the surrounding parts, which in turn may lead togetting the infection. Decayed teeth constitute the most prevalent disease known. It is now known that diseases of the teeth are primarily the cause of innumerable maladies, the origin of which was formerly in doubt. The impression made by Oral Infection upon the nervous system may produce diseases of the stomach, liver, heart and therefore upon all the organs of the body. Mental Disease Due to Bad Teeth The following are some of the mental diseases due to Dental Origin: Insomnia or sleeplessness, Insomnia with arterial disease, Melancholia, Neurasthenia, Hysteria, Mania, Incipient dementia, Pracoxomia, the lace fever. Upon states that "Of the viscera responsible for the more obscure nervous and mental derangements, I have no hesitation in designating the teeth as the most important." In recent cases of insanity cures have been ef- LIST OF CHICAGO DENTISTS Doctors. Dr. Alexander, W. E. Dr. Allen, E. P. Dr. Barnes, George S. Dr. Bentley, Chas. E. 25 Dr. Bowser, R. L.

C. 2 THE CHICAGO WHIP fected by the extraction of a single abscessed tooth. Regarding the special diseases that gain entrance to the general system through the Oral Cavity, Rheumatism, Scarlet Fever, Pulmonary Tuberculosis and Cancer, are perhaps the most common. Bad breath is the common result or bad teeth. There is nothing more obnoxious and detestable to society that can be easily avoided by the dentist is compelled to work only a short time at each sitting on these patients. A close conversation with them is avoided at all times. Beauty Spoiled Appearance is often ruined, speech impaired. How beautiful would the most beautiful woman be, if a few of her teeth were decayed and few out here and there? Wouldn't that queer her chances in a beauty show? In addition, how long would she keep her beautiful complexion? If her complexion was gone, she could not even get by with a drug store complexion if her cheeks were all sunken in. And then where would her happy disposition be and her digestion? All gone, and when these things are all gone for a woman, old age is here, regardless of the number of years she has lived. Germs Cause All of the Trouble Bacteria are present in the mouth at all times. Even a few hours after birth the mouth of an infant contains a few bacteria and as soon as it nurses, they immediately increase. While many bacteria may be present in the mouth, it does not necessarily follow that an infection takes place. In fact, it happens more frequently that the patient may harbor a micro-organism or germ which is extremely virulent for another individual, and yet does not affect him. It stands to reason, however, that the reason for an unclean mouth is more susceptible to infection than one who has kept his mouth in perfect condition. Caries of the teeth salivary, calculus or the yellow crust on the teeth near the gums, congested gums are fine breeding ground for bacteria. The tissue is thus rendered less able to protect itself against the bacteria and disease results. The effect may be either local or general. Children's Mouths Need Attention Many of the diseases that we associate with childhood—measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria, epidemic meningitis, utilize the mucus membrane of the nose and throat gain a foothold in the body, crein depressions afford Jaw pain, in which multiplication of the parasite takes place. Thus, it is more than essential to keep the month of the child in perfect condition. Too many people overlook this fact and the children often all the diseases of the mon in childhood. There is no reasonable ground for a mother stating that her child "may as well have one of the infectious diseases now as any other time." Begin with the children and if the child is trained to keep its mouth in a good condition, and to know the comforts which follow good mouth conditions, the child will make very strenuous efforts in later life to have those same physical comforts. LEGAL HINTS TO WOMEN By Violette N. Anderson, LL. B. Dear Mrs. Anderson: I am anxious to get a divorce from my husband, who has been very cruel and abusive. He threatens to kill me if I start a divorce case, and I believe that he will do so. What would you advise me to do? Worried. If you have fully decided to leave him, file your bill for divorce and If you have fully decided to leave him, file your bill for divorce and have your solicitor have an injunction issue restraining him from interfering with you or annoying you in any way. This will no doubt prevent trouble until the case is heard. Keep out of his way in the meantime. You know, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Womans Column, The Whip: Can you advise me how to tell my parents how foolish I have been in allowing a young man that I was keeping company with to get me into trouble? He refuses to marry me, and I am afraid to tell my people. I am in High School, and cannot keep it from them much longer. Can you help me? Unfortunately. You poor child. You have really been foolish, but do not add to your troubles by another mistake. Your mother will be your best friend. Go to her and tell her all about it. Perhaps if the boy has a mother they will get together and the matter can be adjusted so that your future and that of your child will not be ruined. If you do not satisfactorily have an understanding, and your mother should not give you the care and advice you should have at this time, go to the Court of Domestic Relations in the City Hall. They will help you. Miss Anderson: I roomed with a lady a year ago who had some trouble with the Gas Company, and they turned off her gas claiming she owed them a very large amount of money. I went to housekeeping a few weeks ago, and not knowing of her trouble with them, gave her as reference. They turned my gas on, and the third week sent me a hill of the amount they claimed she owed them, claiming that I knew her and had used some of the gas at her house. Now they threaten to turn off my gas. What shall I do? Go to the Adjustment Bureau of the Gas Company and state your case frankly to them. If they fail to adjust it, go to the Public Utilities Commission and present the matter. The Gas Company has absolutely no claim against you. My husband has been out in Kankakee for the past five years, and the doctors say he will never get his mind back. Can I get a divorce from him for insanity? Martha S. No, not while he lives, unless you can prove that he was insane at the time you married him. The Mayor of Chicago should receive the commendation of the entire citizenry for his selection of Charles C. Fitzmorris as Superintendent of Police. While we naturally feel inclined to commend the choice of the Mayor, because of the fealty which exists between members of the fourth estate, the selection was nevertheless one of superb judgment. Chief Fitzmorris has had a varied experience. Two trips around the world, for one of the largest newspapers of the country, and ten years as secretary to Mayors Harrison and Thompson give him a closer view of civic affairs than he could have otherwise obtained. He enjoys the advantage of knowing the real workings of the Police Department, which will enable him to discern inefficiency on the part of his subordinates. Lieut. Garrick to the Grove The bringing of Lieut. Luke Garrick, known in the department as an active and unrelenting police officer, to the Cottage Grove station, no doubt means that a house-cleaning in this district is inevitable. The lieutenant will find that he has no small job. This particular district for years has been a desirable and profitable field for police officials who were seeking to enhance their own fortunes at the expense of the underworld. As a result, gambling, and prostitution have become so bold as to throw the whole district into disrepute. It is not expected that even Lieut. Garrick will be able to eliminate gambling and vice in this district; it is expected, however, that he will minimize these evils and will drive from the streets that type of woman who brazenly plies her trade in defiance of law and order. Should Curb Peckering The lieutenant is revived that a large number of pickpockets are operating badly and apparently with a system that defies attack. These men finding their restful periods are found in certain pool-rooms and alleged clubs, the most of which are only rendezvous for criminals. Such institutions as these, which harbor criminals should have their licenses revoked. Lieutenant Garrick will find that he is up against probably the most carefully organized vice machine in the city of Chicago when he assumes his duties at the Cottage Grove station. It is up to him to demonstrate his ability to cope with the many obstacles which confront him and unravel a strongly interwoven layout of graft operated by him, policing. Watch your step, lieutenant, the good LEGAL CATECHISM By Herman E. Moore, Attorney at Law All Questions of Legal Nature Cheerfully Answered Q. I entered a pawnshop and at tempted to pawn an article, but the pawnbroker told me to immediately vate his place, or he would kick me out and break my head. Have I an action? A. You have no legal remedy. Mere words never constitute an assault. If however, the pawnbroker made any advances toward you, or drew his first causing you to fear immediate violence an action for assault will lie, upon which you can recover damages. Q. I purchased an automobile from a reputable garage, and now a prominent doctor claims it is his stolen car. The doctor has caused the sheriff to seize the car, and I am out of both my money and my car. What legal action can I pursue? A. If it is true that the car was stolen from the doctor, you do not have a leg to stand on in court. A thief cannot convey title to stolen goods. You however, have an action against the garage owner to reimburse you your money. Q. While walking under the elevated tracks an electric spark fell and struck me in the eye, causing me serious pain and trouble. What relief have I? A. You should immediately consult a lawyer, and if the facts can be substantiated as you suggest in your letter, you can recover damages from the elevated company. A typical case of that kind occurred in New York. Q—I deposited $15.00 on a suit at a credit store, and have been unable to pay the balance. The suit was brand new, and can be easily disposed of at the same price it was offered to me. Can I get my money back? A—Under the ordinary circumstances under which deposits are made for clothing to be called for later, you will forfeit your deposit if you do not take the suit. If you had some special agreement to the contrary, you can get your money back. The Editors Mail Milwaukee, Wis., Nov. 11, 1920.

(Baraboo, Wis., News, Nov. 5.) Chicago faces a race question. Never before until the campaign of this year was the colored situation in the city mentioned. Part of the candidates declared, if elected, they would make Chicago white. During the World War thousands of colored people in the South were attracted to Chicago, and have become permanent citizens. They now occupy many blocks, and have become a fixture in the great city. Their right is such that no political wave can remove them, no more than the race can be removed from the South. It was through no motive of theirs they came to Chicago, and there they have a right to live politics or no politics. The American Leader W. H.

ADMISSION FREE. --- PETER J. HARRIS THE WEEK'S BEST EDITORIAL RACE QUESTION IN CHICAGO HEALTH HINTS. In our article of last week we considered the venereal diseases in groups. At this time we wish to consider separately one of the most important and one that is threatening the human race. This one is syphilis. In view of the fact that there are between 6,000,000 and 10,000,000 people in the United States suffering with syphilis it is due time that the one of the most important and one that is threatening the human race. This one is syphilis. In view of the fact that there are between 6,000,000 and 10,000,000 people in the United States suffering with syphilis it is due time that the public be taught public concern concerning this disease. Syphilis is not a respecter of persons or races. It attacks the rich as well as the poor, and the white race as well as the Negro. The idea put forth by the white doctors that most all Negroes have syphilis and tuberculosis is absurd and not based upon facts. In our observations at the clinics we find in proportion just as many whites suffering with syphilis as we do Negroes. The fact is that syphilis is a white man's disease, and it has been transmitted to the Negro by actual contact with him. We must admit that this disease is damaging and weakening the Negro race more than it is the white race for two reasons: First, because it is a new disease in a new race, and second, because the Negro with syphilis is not as careful about spreading the infection, nor is he as persistent in carrying out his treatments as his white brother. We wish to impress it upon your mind that if you have ever had syphilis or a primary chancre, which is the beginning of this disease, you are not well until your blood is negative, and the Wassermann does not become negative until you have undergone a thorough, systematic course of treatment. Many persons believe that the disappearance of the primary sore, and the clearing up of the skin, means a cure of this disease, but it is not. They should remember that this disease gets into the blood, and the germ may attack any organ in the body. If you have neglected yourself, and allowed this disease to get into your blood, ointentions it requires from eighteen months to two years to clear up the blood. On the other hand if, as soon as the primary lesion appears, the proper medical authorities are consulted, it may be possible to decrease the course of time to cure the disease. Remember that this disease can be cured, and it is up to you, if you have ever been infected, to get cured. Do not stop at a half cure; because half-cured patients are the people that spread the disease, and they are the ones to suffer the consequences of syphilis, which are manifold. This disease may manifest itself in many forms any time after the primary lesion. It may be months or years, but sooner or later open sores, swollen glands, severe headaches, rheumatic pains, abdominal cramps, repeated miscarriages, high blood pressure, paralysis and insanity may develop. About 40 per cent of all cases of insanity are due to the after-effects of syphilis. Modes of Infection: Syphilis may be in two forms, either congenital or acquired. By congenital syphilis we mean syphilis that is born in a child. A father that is infected with syphilis sirs give it to the mother, and she in turn infects her unborn child. Acquired syphilis is almost always due to the infection of the genital organs arising from impure connection. Occasionally cases are met with in which the disease is acquired innocently by direct or indirect contact with syphilic lesions, and then the primary lesion is often located on some other part of the body. Thus, the lip may be infected as result of drinking out of the same glass, or smoking the same pipe, as a syphilic patient, or even by kissing. In conclusion, we wish to urge upon you carefulness. Many persons have been infected innocently and as the result of this infection has to undergo a long course of treatment; or, if they would not submit to this, they would suffer the consequences of syphilis and hastened death.
