CHICAGO, ILL., SATURADY. DECEMBER 10th. 1921 Mob Riddles Boy's Body With Bullets OBJECT TO HIM AS GIRL'S PLAY MATE TEXANS PRETEND TO BE BELIEVE 15-YR. BOY WAS GUILTY OF RAPE. BALLINGER, Texas, Dec. 10.—Pretending to believe that Robert Murtore, a 15-year old boy, was guilty of criminal assault upon a 9-year-old white girl, a masked mob of white men wrested the boy from the hands of Sheriff Flynt, three miles from here Wednesday, and tying him to a post, riddled his body with bullets. Worked with Girl's Mother. Murtore was employed as a house boy at a local hotel where the girl's mother was employed as a dishwasher. The woman frequently brought her daughter to work with her, and the boy and girl became playmates. It is thought that the sight of this angered the whites and precipitated the lynching. Shortly after Murtore was arrested a mob began forming around the county jail. Sheriff Flynt then placed the boy in an automobile for the purpose of spiriting him away to a place of safety. The car was overtaken outside the town, and the custody of the prisoner was demanded. When the sheriff refused the demand, Murtore was forcibly taken from the automobile and pitched headlong into one of a string of six or seven cars used by the mob. He was taken a short distance away, tied to a stake with chains, and his body riddled with bullets. The mob then dispersed, and the sheriff brought the body back to this city. In an investigation which followed the lynching, it was stated that the alleged victim of the attack had made no complaint against the boy. Later after careful schooling by members of the mob, it is said that she gave as her reason for withholding a complaint, a threat made by Murtuor that he would kill her if she talked. Bandit Trails Jeweler, Gets $14,000 BALTIMORE, Dec. 10. — Police are on the trail of two well-known gunmen who held up John Woodson, hotel proprietor and head of a jewelry firm at 519 St. 17th street, Philadelphia, Saturday night near Camden Station. Highwaymen who trailed Woodson since leaving Philadelphia relieved him of a gold watch valued at two hundred dollars, a diamond stick pin valued at one thousand dollars, other diamonds worth six thousand dollars, and about seven thousand dollars in cash. While taking the valuables Woodson was knocked unconscious and left under one of the freight cars on Howard street. His groans attracted the police who sent to the hospital where his wounds were treated. In a statement to the local police he said that he was accompanied by a guard named M. Smith, that he had been to the Bowie races selling jewelry and that he also won some money by betting on the horses. He came back to Baltimore by way of the W. B. and A. electric railway and was on his way to catch a train at Camden station when attacked. From a description given by Woodson, W. Jones, of Dallas, Texas, colored participant in the holdup, was arrested Sunday night. He confessed his part in the proceeding. He also confessed the names of the white men who aided him and said they had given him only ten dollars after declaring that they didn't get much from Woodson. Police expect soon to arrest the two white men implicated. Sends Wife To Work, Turns On Gas, Ends Life Sends Wife To Work, Turns On Gas, Ends Life Earl Davis, 32 years of age, was found dead in the bedroom of his home, 4930 State St., late Monday afternoon. Gas flowing from an open jet bore mute evidence to the cause of his death. Roomers in the apartment above, smelling gas fumes, had called police of the 48th St. station, who broke into the place and found the man dead. Early Monday morning Davis is said to have kept asking his wife whether she was going to work or not. He seemed anxious to have her leave, Davis himself, who was a moulder at the Western Steel Co., did not go to work. After his wife left Davis closed the windows in the house, placed a chair behind the door, turned on the gas and got into bed. No reason could be assigned for his action. Inquest was held Tuesday morning at Ernest Williamson's undertaking establishment. ADVANCEMENT ASSN. REVIEWS YEAR'S WORK The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 78 Fifth Avenue, New York City today issued an end of the year statement calling attention to the work of the Association, and calling upon colored Americans for support. The statement reads as follows: "The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People invites the consideration of all colored Americans of the following facts: I. Lynching. The ten year tight which the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and other agencies have waged against Lynching has resulted in a Federal Anti-Lynching Bill being reported in the House of Representatives, which will be passed in this session of Congress if colored Americans unite in demanding its passage. In this ten year tight the Association has raised and expended more than Thirty Five Thousand Dollars which has been used for personal investigations of Lynching, mass meetings, conferences and publicity matter to make the facts public; with the result that Lynching in the United States has become not only a national issue in the United States but one that the entire civilized world knows about. The personal investigations of Lynchings by members of the Association's staff were the only ones to be made in this country, and were often dangerous to the lives of the investigators. These investigations have once and for all exploded the myth that the cause of Lynching is rape. 2. Arkansas and Tulsa. The facts concerning the riots in Arkansas and in Tulsa, Oklahoma, were placed before the world. The condemned victims of the Arkansas riots, sentenced to die in 1919, have been saved up to the present time and their cases have been fought through every court to the Supreme Court of the United States,' before which they are now to be heard. On these cases the N. A. A. C. P. has already expended $11,299. $3,500 has thus far been raised for the victims of the Tulsa riot; their case being put before the branches of the N. A. A. C. P. before the public through the colored and white newspapers. The Association helped to fight an ordinance of the city of Tulsa which would have prevented colored people rebuilding their homes on the sites where they had stood; with the funds collected it has contributed in furnishing physical relief to the destitute victims, and aided in providing legal defense for the colored men imprisoned on charges of rioting. 3. Extradition. Extradition of colored men from northern to southern states where probable lynchings awaited them, has been successfully opposed by the legal fighters of the Association. This has set a precedent in the northern states, for requiring an assur-Continued on Page 2 GARVEY IN HIS TURN NOW SUES CYRIL BRIGGS SAYS BRIGGS ACCUSED HIM OF RAPING GIRL IN ENGLAND NEW YORK CITY, Dec. 10.—Bitter fighting between Marcus Garvey and Cyril V. Briggs took a new turn last week when Garvey "got even" with Briggs by charging him with criminal libel with reference to statements made by Briggs concerning Garvey in "the Crusader." Garvey appeared in the 12th District Magistrate's Court alleging that in an editorial in the Crusader Briggs had accused him of raping a girl in London, of deserting his wife, and living in adultery with another woman. Briggs was immediately held in $500 bond for the Grand Jury. Ball was furnished for him by Julius Green. A short time ago Briggs brought suit against Garvey because Garvey said that Briggs was "passing" for white. At the trial of the case, Garvey offered to make a retraction of the statement. Briggs consented and dropped he suit. In commenting upon the case Briggs is said to have admitted that Garvey had scored a point on him, saying, however, "It's my move next, keep your eyes on the board. That's all I will say for the present." Briggs has for a year been conducting a relentless propaganda against Garvey and his allied organizations. Garvey charges that the "African Blood Brotherhood," which Briggs heads, is a paper organization with Bolshevistic tendencies. Bellboy Too "Fly", Gets Flogging Bellboy Too "Fly", Gets Flogging MUSKOGEE, Okla., Dec. 10.—A mob of masked white men took A. G. Holstein, bellboy in a local hotel, to the center of a pasture near here, tied him to a stake, and lashed his bare body. Holstein was decoyed away from the hotel into a waiting automobile. He was "charged" with selling whisky, making dates for white women, and making dates with white women for himself. SLEW TEACHER WITH KNIFE. GETS 3 YEARS CAMBRIDGE, Md., Dec. 20.—Because he killed Stephen H.

Long was superintendent of schools in Worcester county. The jury after deliberating three hours found themselves unable to agree on a verdict of murder in the first degree, then balloted again and returned a verdict of manslaughter, recommending clemency. INDICTED, TRIED, AND SENTENCED TO DIE IN SPACE OF ONE DAY INDICTED, TRIED, AND SENTENCED TO DIE IN SPACE OF ONE DAY AUGUSTA, Ga., Dec. 1.—All records in a case of capital punishment were broken here last week when Henry Lacey, 16, was convicted of attacking an 8-year-old girl and was sentenced to be hanged on Dec. 21. He is said to have confessed on the stand. Lacey was indicted, tried, and sentenced within 24 hours after his capture.

SECEDES FROM SOUTH NEW YORK, Dec. 10.—The Ku Klux Klan has been split. The northern half, headed by the Philadelphia klansman, has withdrawn from the national organization, the headquarters of which are at Atlanta. The action is the result of the imperial kloncilium's failure to remove Edward Young Clark, chief of the propagation department of the klan, and his associate, Mrs. Elizabeth Tyler, after charges against them in the recent exposé. Grand Gobblins L. P. Hooper of New York, Arthur Payden of the New England states, F. W. Atkin of Philadelphia, and William Terrill of Washington, D. C., were the men declared to be responsible for the secession. This action followed a report from Chicago that the klansmen there were through with Clark and Mrs. Tyler. Later the Chicago division decided to side with the four grand gobblins in their fight. ind, EIGHT PAGES 10 --- PRICE FIVE CENTS TIPSY GIRL SENDS BULLET THRU BRAIN SUICIDE ENDS GAY NIGHT PARTY IN BACK ROOM OF BILLIARD PARLOR Police responding a call Tuesday morning found the dead body of Margaret Morrison, alias Margaret Rowke white, in the back of a pool room at 502 E. 35th Street. A bullet hole was in her temple. J. C. Hobbs, operates the pool-room gave the alarm when he found the dead girl's body upon opening the place for the day. Just outside the room where the girl lay dead, two men were found in a drunken stupor. The dead girl was identified by papers on her person as living at 355 Ellis Avenue. Upon investigation it was found that her sister, Caroline was in the room occupied by the two girls, also in a drunken stupor. As the story untoldd itself, a tale of revelry and moonshine whisky was told — a booze party that lasted throughout the night in the back of the poolroom.

The dead girl's body was removed to Cook & Jones' Undertaking parlor, where the inquest was held at 2 p.m. The coroners' jury returned a verdict of suicide, and the two men were released.

One of the unique steps forward to be made by the Alpha Phi Alpha will be the pilgrimage to the home of Frederick Douglass, in Anacostia, D. C,, on December 28th, the second day of the convention. Unusual in- terest has been evinced in the pil- grimage as it is the first time wa history that an event of this kind has been held with a Negro as the histor ical character to be honored. Upon this occasion, Dean George W. Cook, of Howard University, a personal friend of Mr. Douglass, will make an address, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, President of the Frederick Douglass Memorial and Historical Association; Miss Nannie H. Borroughs; Mrs. Le- lia Pendleton, and others of the As sociation will act as hostesses. “The pilgrimage,” National President, Si meon S. Booker, of Baltimore, says “marks an epoch in the history o! Negro life in America and it indicates a new day. It is an unusual even! for ft is the first lime that a grouy of college men have ever paid honor to one of our statesmen. ‘This one event will inspire hundreds of boy: and girls to read the life of this distinguished Marylander, and it wil also call to the attention and focu: the interest of fourteen million |American citizens upon the Seer Orator, and Statesman, Frederich Douglass.” Hon, William H. Lewis to Address Public Session.

Six Week's Trial Treatment Sent Anywhere for $1.50 BECOME AN AGENT—"Now a-days it's Madam Walker's" Current Comment By Georgia Huston Jones The pitiable plight of the erstwhile National Negro leader Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson, should be a lesson to some of our local aspirants for political honors. It is well to remember that in the game of politics it is as necessary to hold "old friends" as it is to make new ones. Few promises made, none broken, is a pretty good rule to follow. Gratitude and fair play will give the office-seeker a hold on the hearts of his supporters that NOTHING can displace. One takes no pleasure in the discomfiture of the only Negro National Committeeman (and it is the consensus of opinion that the Administration has not dealt fairly with him or with the race); however one can not help but feel that the present predicament of the "Georgia Peach" is due to his own unfair—not to say questionable methods of procedure. The moral which is, the "Day of Reckoning" will surely come. Among those mentioned as Senatorial possibilities in the Third District are Col. Jas. H. Johnson, whose record stands for itself; Col. Franklin Denison, whose legal mind is trained to cope with intricate mysteries of the law and would serve him and his people well in the atmosphere of the Upper House; Hon. Edw. H. Morris, who fathered the Civil Rights Bill in the recent session of the Constitutional convention; Mr. Ed. Wilson, and his fellow worker of the States Attorneys Office Henry M. Porter. It should not be a difficult matter to get behind any one of the aforementioned gentlemen—for according to their friends each one is well fitted to enter the Senatorial race. If the Negro politician ever expects to be accepted as a Real Leader by his own people and earn the respect of his white brethren in the game he will have to quit the role of professional mendicant and learn how to "Dig Down". Everybody respects money. Among the active women workers of the Colored Women's Cook County Organization are Mrs. Dollie Turner. Mrs. Nell Calloway, Mrs. Glenna Stannard, Mrs. Bennet, Johnston and Parks. Each of these women is vitally interested in racial advancement and are on the organization Committee of the Association. Membership cards for the various districts are in their hands. You are unfair to yourself and untrue to your race if you fail to join in this woman's movement for racial recognition by means of the ballot. Milwaukee News By Miss Marian Steffens.

It seemed that these three cherubs burned up much money and gasoline last summer entertaining a lady from the East. The cherubs naturally thought that they would receive like courtesies when they went East. They wrote her, asking her to get tickets for the Eastern football classic, telling her that they would be over, and they all wanted to sit in her box. The letter Nosey found was one of those chilly yet polite missives that some ladies know how to write advising the "cherub thrige" that they could home and she would speak with them at the game, but she had made arrangements for her company. Also they could get tickets when they arrived. Of course, the "cherubs" have recalled all of their advance publicity and went out to the lake and there made a vow that they would receive their social courtesies here in Chicago before the visitors departed as "absence makes the heart and purse grow stronger for the other fellow." ON MONDAY afternoon Nosey went to see a gentleman at his office. The reception room was dark and he thought that nobody was in the office. But as Nosey's eyes got used to the darkness he discovered the "big boss" on the very comfortable soothe holding the pretty office girl in his very long arms. Nosey coughed but neither stirred. Nosey then turned on the electric light and noted that both were breathing regularly, and then he was sure that it was not a mutual suicide. Going into the next office Nosey called the "big boss" on the telephone. The girl answered silently. Nosey hung up the receiver, feeling that he had rendered both a service because 43rd and State Street is a busy corner and someone might have come in who would not have been as considerate the big boss's wife, for example. SOME PEOPLE will never learn show to act or how to dress, no matter how much "contact" they have had. Nosey was at the Avenue Theatre Friday night at the presentation of "Everywoman." One of Chicago's biggest guns came into his box seat with his lady. The lady was in evening attire, but the gentleman still clung to the custom of waiters and strutted up with a Tuxedo with a black tie. The gentleman should have known better, as he claims much wisdom in matters social and has had much contact with those who really know. Nosey is no social lion but he has been taught that over and above fashion there is the unwritten courtesy shown ladies—when they are in evening dress the gentleman also should wear evening clothes. Some day he might learn, but Nosey is glad that he at least selected a black tie instead of a red one. ELEVATED TRAINS still furnish excitement. Nosey was coming home from a loop show the other night. A lady from the southside and evidently very recently from the far South entered the train. Her dress was caught in the door. It came off as she pulled away viciously. Nosey bid his face, thinking that the lady would be embarrassed when that awful rip game. Instead, it was shown that she had prepared for such emergencies, and she calmly removed the rest of her skirts before the eyes of all, revealing a perfectly good pair of her husband's trousers. She sat down white all the passengers smiled—for she was a curious sight—woman from the waist up, man from the waist down. She laughed and said, "I ain't gonna let this cold wind chill me to the bone—I'm prepared." To see it was to laugh. YOU CAN never tell who is your friend. Nosey was standing in a doorway in the semi-darkness, waiting for a street car. It was cold and the wind was blowing. A lady came up and handed him a bundle, saying, "Now, I will not listen to any argument tonight. Here is your dinner." Nosey started to say something but she yelled, "Shut up!" so loud, and she looked so fierce that The wh bre Chr set Gold beauty $125 RI now selling Open Even LOFT BROS Ground Floor Store 332 S A man is knocking on the door. ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` hew got real quiet.

MUSIC Pek leach ort cen In these days of victrolas, grafo- nolas, many and varied talking machines and ull the mechanical music machines that are marching rampant through the world of music a serious problem confronts us. What kind of records shall be bought, how shall they be chosen to produce the best results and the Rreatest amount of pure enjoyment when used by the average family which naturally contains both child- ren and adults? What companies produce the majority of worth while records? Just exactly what should be the choice and why? Hach day these questions arise and as the days pass they become more insistent, At last_ the music loving public is awakening to the fact that it has been led blindfolded along a pleasur- able pathway-—a pathway strewn with flowers, of enjoyment but hay- ing on one side a ravine holding for the unfortunate traveler dreadful and certain death and on the other side a mountain path leading to wonderful heights of true apprecia- tion and real benefit, It is the province of those who can intelligently do so to help in this vital musical need, In order to do So the efforts of the various types of mechanical music should be ex- plained and assistance given as fo how and where to chose the records of great and lasting value, Note.

WE HAVE DEDICATED OURSELVES TO PUBLIC SERVICE. The Yellow Peril The astuteness and the smooth diplomacy of the Japanese, who are attending the Disarmament Conference, leads us to think that Mr. Hughes' plan for cutting down the navies of the world is not feasible and ill advised. Even a peremptory survey of the western coast of the U. S. A. and Mexico will show that the Japanese people are turning their eyes and efforts into the Occident. The Japanese naval officers, it is said, know more about the American navy than some of our own officers. Britons and Germans have skilled the little yellow men in modern methods of aerial and submarine warfare and over our heads hangs the peril of another war. This next war, the disarmament conference notwithstanding, should remove some of the difficulties which confront the black American. He will be needed to check the onslaughts of the Nipponese and again he will shed his blood for Old Glory, and the American would well to treat him better now and allow unto him more opportunities to live as other citizens. Jim Crow laws should be abolished, lynchings should be ended and segregation and discrimination should be wiped out for the black man will not be so docile and unquestioning when he is summoned to the front. The Hughes' plan is a rehashed league of nations which this country has already rejected. The world is not ready to "study war no more" and America should prepare and part of her programme of preparedness should be a firmer dispensation of rights to her black citizens. "Birthright" That is the name of a novel that is being run in the Century Magazine. It is the story of a black youth who graduated from Harvard and returned to his southern home. He brings back with him newer and loftier ideals, an increased love for his people and a poignant desire to help them. But this educated man finds his laudable ambition dashed against, if not entirely broken by, the sturdy bulwark of southern prejudice which is in itself almost pathetic in its petty maliciousness. The story still runs and we do not know how the author will evolve the remainder of the plot. To us that is unessential. The main thing is the potency of the object lesson of the American Black Man at last being placed in contemporaneous fiction on a plane of dignity. And this means that the era is at hand when the American white man will seek to understand the black man as a serious entity of American civilization, and not as a ridiculous caricature set apart. Peter Siner, the hero, is a Harvard Man. He is sensitive, fine, loyal, true. He has the same ambitions, the same heart, soul and brain as any other man. He is depicted with sympathy and understanding—such understanding that one readily feels that Peter Siner is the embodiments of millions of black souls who struggle and yearn to the bigger life, unhampered and uncrushed by the vicious heel of unreasoning prejudice. That such a story finds its way into one of the very best American Magazines at a time like this speaks well for the solidarity and spokesmanship of the black people of the country. It means that the strident cry of the black press is being heard even above the deafening din of counter propaganda. It means that the first step—ever so small a step—has been taken to see the black man from the black man's side of the fence rather than to view him from above as a menial and a menace, or as a scullion and an outcast. To put such a story before hundreds of thousands of readers, almost exclusively white, takes courage, and the Century Magazine is to be congratulated on publishing such a piece of fiction while, so far as it has gone, bids fair to present the Negro Problem to a white audience in a way that has never been done before. Mr. Stribling, the author is a southern white man of Norwegian birth and the cold, stark realism of his work proves that he is taking no wild flights of imagination but that from his pen flows the tales of human hearts, human love and human sin as they have been impressed upon him. It is a work of art with easy style and should b eread by every one who wishes to see the black man as he really is and the white man as he pretends to be. TORIAL HEALTH HINTS By Dr. Troy Smith BOILS. By Dr. Troy Smith BOILS. These frequent and unwelcome visitors are always due to an infection. A boil is an inflammation of the deeper layers of the skin and adjacent subcutaneous tissue, generally circumscribed about a hair root or sweat gland. The germ that most frequently causes a boil is a pus forming organism called the staphylococcus pyogenes-aureus. This germ finds its way into the deeper layers of the skin by burrowing down at the site of a hair root or sweat gland. Here it rapidly propagates its species. irritation takes place, the blood vessels of the region become dilated, leukocytes hasten to the defense of the patient, and tumefaction, heat and pain develop. The process continues and the inflamed area becomes necrosed, soon softens, and breaks through the skin, and more or less thin pus with blood escapes. After the pus begins to escape the boil begins to heal. A. E. B. The parts of the body most frequently affected are the back of the neck, the axillae, the gluteal, perineal and genital regions. The back of the neck is the most frequent place in men for boils to occur. DR. TROY SMITH PREVENTION OF BOILS. The best prevention in the world for boils is to keep constantly clean, particularly those parts that are the site of common occurrence. Some cases of boils are caused by direct transmission by scratching with contaminated finger nails. Certain persons are predisposed to periodic groups of boils. Often on careful examination it will be found that there is a focus of infection someplace in the body, particularly, the nose, nasal sinuses, tonsils, teeth or gums. People with Diabetes (sugar in the urine) are predisposed to boils. If a focus of infection is found curing the same condition, whether it be in the mouth or nose, will often relieve the patient's periodic occurrence of boils. TREATMENT OF BOILS When the boil is "ripe," it should be opened. Often hot applications will hasten the ripening of the same. After thoufough drainage has been established by a free incision, frequent dressing with antiseptic gauze, of the boils, is necessary. Be sure to keep the surrounding skin area clean to prevent the spread of the infection. As a general treatment, anything that makes for appetite, good digestion, proper movement of the bowels, and nutrition works for a successful fight against boils. Vaccines either the stock or autogenous vaccines have been used with great success both as a preventive and curative measure against the formation of boils. Thinks Problem Will Die Out ITHIS MAY DISCOURAGE LYNCHING. It is important that the white race, especially the viler part of it, that lynches and burns, should know that the colored race is constantly becoming smaller in comparison with the total population. Thirty years ago colored people made up more than thirteen per cent of the total population. Now their percentage is something over nine per cent. Even in the South within twenty years the percentage of colored people has dropped from thirty-three to twenty eight. From 1910 to 1920 the population of the United States increased by almost fourteen millions, and only 625,250 of the number were negroes. This means that the negro is steadily diminishing as a factor in population and consequently as a possible competitor with white labor. If the whites that lynch would realize that, they might be willing to forego their lynchings. Slowly and inevitably the percentage of the colored population of the United States will decrease. There will be only seven per cent, then three per cent, then one per cent and LESS than one per cent of the population colored. When that time comes, and it is coming steadily and surely, there will be no negro problem in this country, nothing in the way of competition or concentrated colored population to grouse ignorant hatred. Eventually and before very long the colored man in the United States will be, as in England, an object of curiosity and in no way a cause of antagonism. For the sake of the colored race, may that time come soon. They were brought here against their will as slaves by brutal white men trafficking in human life, and the least they have a right to expect from the descendants of those that stoe and brought them here is decent treatment and JUSTICE. —Chicago Evening American.

The Ku Klux Klan may be sleeping but it is not dead; only last night it turned out with masks and flaming torches to pay burial rights to a dead klansman. Congress has rested its inquiry and also adjourns for two weeks and the lynching issues have not yet been dealt with. For a season's greeting let Congress give us a change of heart. A great Chicago daily writes a satirical and sardonic report of the failure of a black man's bank. The black people fail in business the same as other business people and the failure of an institution should not provoke ridicule. It is a regular course in human affairs to fail as well as to succeed and the race or color plays no great part. Suppose we would gleefully gloat over the failure of white institutions? Charles Redding, democrat, was appointed to position of Assst Attorney General for the District of Georgia and Geo. McLeod, also a white democrat, was appointed deputy marshal for the southern district of Georgia. These appointments come through the benevolence of the Republican party and is part of the "political equality" programme of President Harding even though under previous administrations black men were appointed to the important positions of Collector of Internal Revenue even in Georgia. The Republicans are not very grateful. Beware the Ides of March. To those who are satisfied with the "half loaf" and are content to be "half men" let them read Dr. Dubois's editorial in the current issue of the Crisis. Dr. Dubois in clear and concise style has enunciated principles and doctrines which throw the burden of going on upon the Uncle Toms. How will they answer Dubois? What has Garvey to say? LEGAL HINTS By GEORGE C. ADAMS Mr. Adams—I am in serious trouble, due to the indiscretion of my young nephew, a boy of sixteen years. Two young friends of his induced him to stand outside of a store and watch while they entered by breaking in and burglarized the store. The two boys who entered have been arrested, but my nephew has not, and I am wondering if they can arrest him and if so for what crime would he be charged? A. E., St. Louis, Mo. Answer—If your nephew watched outside to warn the two burglaries in case of probable detection and to give assistance if required he is guilty of the same crime as the two boys who entered and burglarized the store. He is, however, guilty as principal in the second degree. My dear Attorney—My father was in possession of our farm for life, being left it by my grandfather, and early last spring after being advised by the doctor that he would not live through the summer, he insisted upon planting the farm. He died in July before the crops were ripe and I want to know if I have the right to them as the only heir, while the farm goes to my uncle by my grandfather's will?—C. I. D., Little Rock, Ark. Answer—The crops are emblems and the right to them exists in all cases where the life estate is terminated (as by death) without the tenant's fault; and the probability that he will die before maturity of the crops has no effect upon the right to them. You have the right to care and harvest the crops which your father planted. Attorney G. C. Adams—My father died leaving a will at the age of 87 years. He left three sons, the children of two deceased daughters and his widow. His widow was his second wife. He left the use of all the personal property and real estate to this widow for life, and the remainder was to go to her nephews and left his children without anything. His widow was his second wife and not the mother of his children. The family life was unhappy. She took a dislike to us and finally drove us from home. At her request our father frequently whipped us and our food, clothing and schooling were cut down. She even kept the news of our father's death from us. She was better educated and more forceful then our father. She used to take him to town and they would get "drunk" together. She told the neighbors that her nephews were to have the land; and prejudice our father's mind against us. He told others that he was not going to give any of the land to us because his wife would not let him. She was present and made suggestions when the will was drawn up. Please inform us what steps to take in this matter—S. E. E., Albany, N. Y. Answer-This is a complicated case and of course you will need an attorney to assist you. Your father's widow will no doubt attempt to have his will probated and your duty will be to fight such an effort and ask the Probate Court to refuse to probate it. This the court should do for while it does not appear that your father was out of his mind at the time that the will was drawn yet in view of all these circumstances, and of the fact that his wife's influence was undue, and actually induced the will and that the nephews were not of kin to the testator. His children were the natural beneficiaries; and no reason other than the wife's influence appears to have caused them to be cut off.

Office Chicago, Illinois Name Address Office Detroit, Mich. Public Treated As Guests In Post Office Posters have been placed in the lobby of the Main Post Office and at the stations throughout the city which read as follows: TO THE PUBLIC When you come here you are an invited guest, and it is my desire that you be treated as such. It will encourage the employee and help the service if you will bring any unusual instance of courtesy or helpfulness to my attention. Arthur C. Lueder, Postmaster "While I have been with the Post Office only a short time, my observations convince me that the greatest majority of the employees of the post office serve the people courteously and efficiently", said Postmaster Linder in dishessing the poster, "but it is my desire that the post office shall be noted for its courteous treatment of its patrons and that the people of Chicago shall come to look upon it as the most friendly, as well as the most efficient, institution in the city. Nothing can take the place of prompt, efficient and courteous service in creating good will. "I am particularly anxious that women and children, and those who are not familiar with business methods or with our language, shall be received in a friendly and sympathetic way. The employees have been asked to show special consideration for those who are not familiar with our language, for the employee is often the only point of contact between such a person and the Government, and if the impression created by the employee is favorable the good will not only extends to the employee himself but to the institution which he serves." If You See It In The Whip, It Is True.
