THIRTY-THIRD YEAR. NO.46. IN VATICAN THERE'S STRength WOMEN PARADE IN RAIN FOR SUFFRAGE Ask National Convention to Incorporate Equal Suffrage Plank in Platform. MAKE BIG DEMONSTRATION Three Associations Address the Relican Committee on Platform in an Appeal for Recognition From the Party. Chicago, Ill.—Four thousand women marched miles through a driving rain in a plea to the Republican national convention to incorporate a plank for equal suffrage in the party's platform. Watched by Thousands. Thousands of delegates and visitors from hotel windows watched the women brave the pelting storm that blew off the lake upon the intrepid parades as they marched by platoons up Michigan-av. to the Colliseum. Hundreds of the braver lined the sidewalks, warmly clad in overcoats and holding umbrellas, as the women, mostly clad in light uniform gowns and exposed to the rain, passed by. "If they've got nerve enough to march in this rain I've got nerve enough to stand out in it and watch them," said one delegate, a man from Ohio. When the women reached the Colliseum they were denied admission. Safe in the building, the Republican committee on-resolutions was hearing arguments. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt and her colleagues were speaking for the suffragists. Suddenly the beating of drums and the blare of trombones smote the ears of the distinguished and satisfied statesmen. The women were filing in, sweeping past the guards. They filled the delegates' seats and the main galleries, as well as the gallery back of the platform where the committee was holding its meeting. The committee tried to look unimpressed, but did not succeed very well. The question of a suffrage plank is still undetermined. Plead for: Plank. Besides Mrs. Catt, the committee was addressed by Mrs. Abbe Krebs of California, Mrs. Ellis Moredith Clement of Colorado, Mrs. Wilbur Trout of Illinois and Mrs. Frank Roessinge of Pennsylvania. The Congressional union was represented by Miss Anne Martin of Nevada, Mrs. G. Harriot Stanton Blatch of New York and Mrs. Sarah Bard Field, Mrs. Arthur Dodge of New York, president of the Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage, had-charge of the opposition. Miss Alice Hall Chittenden of New York and Miss Minnie Bronson of Iowa also spoke against the proposed plank. 3 KILLED, 2 WOUNDED ATTEMPT OF MOB TO RESCUE PRISONERS RESULTS IN DEATH OF TWO. Bluefield, W. Va.—Three persons were killed and two were seriously wounded at Beckley, W. Va., 50 miles from Bluefield, when a mob composed of negroes attempted to take three nego- prisoners from a party of deputy sheriffs, according to advises received here. Mob leaders, it is claimed, thought an attempt was going to be made to lynch the prisoners, and opened fire on the deputies. Many shots were ex- changed and a deputy sheriff and two negroes were killed and two deputies wounded. Float Another Loan New York City—Another British loan of more than $25,000,000, said to be the towerowner of a still larger one, has been floated, here through J. P. Morgan & Co. and other bankers. The money, borrowed on call, is to be used to pay for munitions purchased in this country, it is believed. The loan, it was stated, was made against further shipments of gold from Ottawa, Canada. Local banks have been loaning money on call to the British government ever since the war's beginning. One Killed. Two Injured. Wills Point. Tex.—Mrs. H. F. Goodnight, aged 70, was killed, her husband, who is president of the Vandzandt National bank here, was fatally injured, and their daughter, Mrs. R. J.

Mrs. Moran's husia being held pending investigation. Heavy Loss at Toledo. Toledo, O.—Damage estimated at more than $100,000 was done along the Maumee bay shore as result of high wind and water. Nearly a mile of the Toledo Beach railroad track was washed out by the heavy rollers of the lake. Many cottages at the point and the beach were damaged. At the former place the carp ponds were washed away, the owners losing about 50 tons of fish which they were raising for eastern markets. Vessels feared to leave port and none arrived. THE GAZETTE British war minister who went to his death in the sinking of the cruiser Hampshire off the Orkney Islands. He was regarded as England's greatest soldier. MANY ARE KILLED AND INJURED BY CYCLONE Storm Swept Path a Mile Wide and 130 Miles Long: Property Loss Over $500,000. Little Rock, Ark.—Between 75 and 100 people are reported dead and more than 250 injured as the result of the terrific cyclone which swept the eastern and northern half of Arkansas.

Reports have not been received from scores of small towns along the path of the tornado, and it is believed these will increase the death toll. Jackson, Miss., June 7—Twelve persons are dead and 65 injured, many seriously, as the result of a cyclone that cut a path from 50 to 100 yards wide through Jackson. The property damage is estimated at $500,000. Nearly 250 homes are damaged, many of them completely wrecked. The state institution for the dead and dumb was partly demolished.

TUSKEGEE MAKES STEADY ADVANCE Commencement Season Is One of Happiness, Intermingled With Sadness--Governor Henderson and State Superintendent of Education Feagin Attend—C. H. Gibson Valedictorian. BY CLEMENT RICHARDSON. BY CLEMENT RICHARDSON. Tuskegee Institute, Alabama.—From beginning to end the recent commencement exercises of the Tuskegee Institute had that soap and go which have characterized them for the last twenty years. The first exercise of the season began with the intersociety declamation contest, held in the auditorium of Tompkins hall. The contest this year MISS CLARISSA MAE SCOTT. had a peculiarly added interest because of the substitution of the cash prize for a medal. For a number of years B. H. Warner of Washington has been giving the medal to be awarded to the student who delivered the best declaration. This year money was substituted for the medal. The prizes were given by members of the Alumni association and by one of the teachers. The money offered was $17.50, being three prizes; the first of $10, the second of $4 and the third of $2.50. The first and second prizes were made up by members of the local alumni association—namely, Miss Sarah L. Hunt, Captain B. F. Ainmous, Captain W. A. Richardson, Captain Victor H. Daniels and Mr. Isaac Fisher, president of the local alumni association and editor of the Negro Farmer and Messenger. The third prize of $2.50 in gold was given by Mr. R. A. Marsden of the English department. The commencement sermon, was preached by Dr. C. B. Wilpurl, rector, St. Luke's Episcopal church, Atlanta, Ga. Dr. Wilner's sermon was full of inspiration and courage both for those who were going out and those who remained. His address to the senior class was one of force and point. The commencement Sunday exercises were followed by the annual Philsas hall commencement, held 'in the institute chapel. The dean of the department, Rev. G. Lake Imes, with his assistants, had drilled the students on community work and social service, the kind of work which they had been following throughout the year. The annual Boston Trinity church prize speaking contest was held also in the institute chapel. For this speaking two prizes, are offered—the first prize of $25 and the second of $15—given by the Trinity church, Boston. The contest was between the members of the Aphrodite and the members of the senior class. This year 128 students tried out in the first preliminary contest. Commencement day, Thursday, May 25, began at 9 o'clock. There was a little change of custom owing to the additions to the program. There were trainloads of visitors and friends from Montgomery and Opelika and other points in the state and from many of the cities in the north. For the first time in the history of the Tuskegee Institute the two commencement speakers having the highest honors were children of members of the Tuskegee Institute faculty. The satutorian was Charissa Mae Scott, daughter of Emmett J. Scott, the secretary of the school, and the valedictorian was Charles H. Gibson, Jr., son of Charles H. Gibson, Sr., the chief accountant of the institute. Miss Scott's subject was "Beautifying the Rural School Grounds." After welcoming the visitors and friends and referring in a touching and graceful way to the absence of Dr. Washington, the young lady announced her theme. She stated that "beautifying the rural school grounds was vital not only because of its attractiveness, but because it taught lessons to the community and rendered the people content where they were. As is the custom at Tuskegee Institute, all the papers except the valedictorian were illustrated. Miss Scott had the orchestra stand of the institute converted into a landscape—that is, the stand was covered with a thick layer of earth of various kinds. Here she demonstrated by haw ong space and raise how to graze a walk, how to plant flowers, how to lay off and plant a garden and how to plan a school playground. Then, coming down from the orchestra stand, she took a wilted basket which had been made by a young lady who had the subject of handkerchiefs, and plitting in moss and bogs, planned several feeps and other motives. When she finished planting the c in the box she hung the box up in the diving room, which also came into one of the subjects of the theme. Following the discussion of the rural schools, Herbert Ley Clark of Auburn, Ala., showed how a rural school should be built. He pointed out the value of having at least three rooms, in order that industries as well as literary subjects could be taught and to the end that the three rooms could all be converted into one and large audiences accommodated when the occasion demanded. The third speaker discussed the subject "Teaching Rural Handkerchiefs." This young lady, Miss Tomiande M. Guannet of Tahasshe, Ala., showed the value of having handkerchiefs taught in the various rural communities. The main point of her paper was that out of shocks, of wilows, of splits, of phe needles and such other wood and grass, as are ordinarily thrown away, the farmer. If taught, could make a number of useful things. Alfred Xumm of Engolo, South Africa, spoke on "Problems In Poultry Raising." He demonstrated to the audience how to test eggs, how to feed chickens and how to manage an incubator. He pointed out in his paper that Montgomery county alone had imported $200000 worth of poultry products during the past year. Herbert R. Gallard of Charleston, S.C., attracted a great deal of attention by showing how plumbing could be done in a rural cottage—that is, how the farmer's wife—and the farmer, too—could have water in the home and have their stock watered around the house rather than going down to the spring or brook. "Lessons In the Production of the Sweet Potato" was discussed by Emanuel List of Brooklyn, Miss. This again was a practical theme, applicable to Tuskegee institute and to the whole source. The point in this paper, was not so much in raising sweet potatoes, which every one could do, but preserving them. The young man had on the platform a wooden structure, or pit, in which the potatoes could be preserved through the year, and also a wooden device sowing how sweet potatoes could be sprouted earlier and thus get the crop planted earlier. "Serving a Rural School Dinner" was "Serving a Rural School Dinner" was the subject of Pauline A. Wiley of CHARLES H. GIBSON, JR. Pine Bluff, Ark. Miss Wiley had on the platform a dining room table, which during her discussion she set up and decorated with wild flowers; then she read off a menu which sounded more like an Delmonico's than at a rural school meal. Yet, as the young lady pointed out, the meal was perfectly possible, for everything she used was grown on the farm. The valedictorian, Charles H. Gibson, Jr., of Tuskegee institute, spoke on "Training the Country Boy for Life." A8 Miss Scott had outlined each subject in her salutatory, so Gibson summarized each in his valedictory before discussing his own subject. He pointed out that boys and girls taught in the way suggested by these subjects would be happy, intelligent, farmers, independent of city life, surrounding themselves with all the conveniences of any people. After the shading of the "Awlv Chorus" by the institute choir, under the direction of Mrs. Jennie C. Lee, the imaginal expresses began. Dr. Hollis B. Fessel, principal of Hampton Agricultural and Industrial Institute, made the first formal address. He was followed by Dr. H. T. Kealing, president of the Western university, Quindaro, Kami, who spoke on behalf of institutions for the education of Negro youth. The principal elect was then presented and delivered his inaugural address. He was greeted with enthusiastic applause from students, teachers and visitors. It seemed really like welcoming an old friend, because Major Moton is not only well known at Tuskegee institute, but has been considered in a way as a part of the Tuskegee institute family for many years. With the short addresses delivered by Hon. Charles Henderson, governor of the state, and by the state superintendent of education, Hon. William F. Fengin, and several other distinguished visitors, the commencement season closed. BAPTISTS READY FOR CONVENTION Thirty-ninth Annual Meeting of Time Honored. Religious Organization Gains Many Zealous Workers as Result of Extending Its Territory—Dr. Dwelle to Preach Annual Sermon. BY N. BARNETT DODSON. The thirty-ninth annual, meeting of the New England Baptist missionary convention will be held in the Second Baptist church, Germantown avenue and McFerran street, North Philadelphia, from Thursday, June 15, to the 18th, inclusive. The Rev. J. C. Jackson, D. D., is pastor of the convention church. Dr. Jackson and his committee of arrangements are putting the finishing touches on every detail at the local church for the comfortable entertainment of the delegates and visitors who will attend the convention. The Rev. W. Bishop Johnson, LL. D., of Washington, president of the convention, is 'one of the best known and most scholarly men of the Baptist denomination in the United States. He has done a good work as an educator W. BISHOP JOHNSON, LL. D. and author and is rounding it his thirty-fifth year as pastor of the Second Baptist church in Washington. Dr. Johnson was chairman of the committee on enlargement of the territory of the convention four years ago, which perfected plans which were adopted by the convention's session at Orange, N. L., extending the scope of the organization to Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. As a result of the enlargement the convention has taken on greater activity and is in position to do more effective educational, home and foreign mission work. The extension of the jurisdiction of the convention has brought it the force many able, well educated young ministers, who are co-operating with those brilliant, constructive pioneers who have brought the work of the denomination in the northern and New England states up from a weak and hating position to aggressiveness, power and influence. The District of Columbia and Pennsylvania will send large delegations to the coming meeting, and there will also be able representatives from Virginia. The schedule of the sessions of the convention, as decided upon by the board of managers and sent out by the corresponding secretary, Rev. William A. Harrood, Ph. D., is as follows: Thursday, June 15, 3 o'clock p.m., convention called to order by President Johnson, devotional service and appointment of committees. At 3:30 the annual sermon will be preached by the Rev. Dr. J. H. Dwelle of Braddock, Pa., with whom will be associated the Rev. W. W. Ryan, D. D., of West Newton, Mass. In the evening after devotional services the educational features of the convention's work will be presented by the Rev. J. C. Love, D. D., of Montclair, N. J.; Professor R. C. Wood of Lynchburg, V. A.; William A. Creditt, LL. D., of Philadelphia; W. J. Winston D. D., of Baltimore, and Miss N. H. Burroughs, A. M., of Washington.

At the evening session the Rev. W. A. Taylor, D. D., of Washington will deliver the missionary address. His associate will be the Rev. L. H. Reed of Bolte, Ind. The working periods of the convention will be taxed to the limit; therefore all claims of whatever sort should be presented to the secretary before or not later than the opening day of the meeting. The pulpits of the local churches will be supplied with the visiting clergymen on Sunday, June 15. At the convention church the morning sermon is to be preached by the Rev. J. A. White of Trenton, N. J., who will be assisted in the service by the Rev. L. W. Boynton of Providence, R. L. In the afternoon the Rev. J. W. Brooks of Brooklyn and the Rev. R. B.

BOAT GOES DOWN IN THICK OF THE FIGHT Zeppelin Aided German Vessels in Attack; Aicraft Brought Down Before Ship Sinks. Edinburgh, Scotland.—The Scotian prints the following graphic story of the naval battle: "The Queen Mary went down in the thick of the action. Then men who have returned say she fought at close range a German battleship, and while her great guns were busy with the more powerful and better protected German ship, one of the kisher's super Zeppeliners was hovering over her, showering her with bombs in an attempt to find a vital spot. "As busy as she was with her heavy guns, the Queen Mary kept her anti-aircraft guns going. The story is that the Zeppelin was shot down in a blazing mass, fell close to the ship, exploded and was destroyed. At the same time the Queen Mary received two terrific broadsides, one from the ship which she had been fighting, and which is said to have gone down subsequently, and one from another German ship. From the latter a shot behelled which reached her magazine. There was a great explosion and within six minutes she went down. "The other losses, it is understood, were for the most part due to gunfire from ships of greater gunpower and heavier armor at close range. The work of two famous vessels—the Lion and the Tiger—is notable because of Beauty's command of the first and the German belief that the second had been sent to the bottom many months ago. "The Lion, was where the fight was the hottest, excepting once when there was a concentrated fire upon the Tiger, such a volume of fire as few vessels have ever experienced and survived. The sudden alteration of the German course as their struggle to escape began throw the mighty Tiger under the fire of over a score of ships. The ordeal hasted for 10 minutes, but the marvel is that the Tiger should have steamed back to port. "An astonishing feature was the comparatively negligible character of the damage done to the ships in view of the fact that the heaviest guns of the German navy in overwhelming numbers had been turned upon them for hours. "Men who have come out of the action are firm in the statement that the German ships sunk, disabled or otherwise mauled so severely that they cannot at present be available for service total not less than 40 of all classes." Aged Erie Leader Dies Erie, Pa.—William B. Trask, president of the Marine National bank, senior member of the department store firm of Trask, Prescott & Richardson, and one of the leading men in Erie, is dead. Mr. Trask, who was 70, had been ill for several months following a general breakdown. Gifts for Educational Work New York City. — Announcement is made by the Rockefeller general education board of gifts to the extent of $789,880 for educational institutions throughout the country. German Editor Shot Akron, O. — A. E. Menger, the editor of the Akron Germania, who had charge of a carnival staged here last week to raise funds for the German allies, was shot in the back at the carnival grounds. Menger was standing near a shooting gallery owned by M. B. Lagg. Cleveland. Police arrested Lee Worley, who ran the gallery, on a charge of suspicion. They said Worley was cleaning and extracting loads from a rifle after he had, closed the gallery. Menger's injuries will not be fatal. IN THE HIGH COURTS OF THE UNION RUSSIANS CAPTURE 40,000 AUSTRIANS Petrograd Reports Success Attending Great 250-Mile Drive on Eastern Front. NUMBER OF GUNS TAKEN Turks Claim Defeat of Russians Near Baghdad; Germans Capture English Trenches: French Are Still Holding Fort Vaux. Amsterdam, Holland.—In their new offensive movement the Russians have captured more than 40,000 men. It was announced officially in Petrograd. The Petrograd statement says that on the line between the Pripe and the Romanian frontier, over which the great campaign is being fought, the Russians thus far have taken 900 officers, 40,000 men, 77 guns, 134 machine guns, and 49 bomb throwers. News Kent From World. With the exception of the brief official communications, which are bare of details, no information has been received in regard to the new campaign. It is being conducted on a front of more than 250 miles, and although it has every indication of being a major operation carefully prepared for, the story of the campaign thus far has been kept from the world. Petrograd correspondents have been permitted, to cable only, a few dispatches, in which they estimated the Austrian forces engaged, but not the Russian, placing the former at about 600,000 men. Checks for the Austrians all along the line of their attack in the southern Tyrol are reported by the Rome war office. Claim: Russian Defeat. A defeat for the Russians attempting to advance on Bagdad is reported by the Turkish war office. Near Kankinik, about 55 miles northwest of Bagdad, on May 21, saxs the statement, the Russians were outmaneuvered by the Turks and their enveloping columns dispersed and put to flight. The response of a powerful German attack on Fort Vaux, on the Verdun line, with heavy losses to the attackers, is announced by Paris. Violent bombardment of the fort is still being carried out by the Germans. At hill 304 an artillery duel is in progress and the big guns are hurling shells on the Canrettes wood. London, Eng.—The Germans have captured the British trenches at Hooge, on the northern end of the British line in France. Hooge lies four miles to the southeast of Ypres and about the same distance north of hill 60, where heavy fighting has been in progress for a week. It was in this neighborhood that the Canadians holding the front were forced back last week and since have been fighting stubbornly to regain their lost ground. CONSULATE ATTACKED MEXICAN MOB TEARS DOWN OF FICIÁL SHIELD AND SHAT- TERS ALL WINDOWS. Chihuahua, Mexico. — A mob of several thousand persons attacked the American consulate, tore down the official consulate shield over the door and shattered all the windows. Gen. López rushed a detachment of troops to the consulate and drove the infuriated mob away from the building. The city has been placed under martial law by Gen. Jacinto Trevino. Trevino told an immense gathering in the opera house, that unless the American government withdrew immediately its soldiers from Mexico, the de facto government would call all Mexicans to arms. Swedish Lutherans Meet Gatesburg, Ill.—Four hundred—delegates from over the United States and Canada are here attending the 55th Augustana-synod convention. Petitions to abolish intercollegiate football for institutions controlled by the synod confront the delegates.

SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1916. DARE TO DO YOUR DUTY. "Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln. Major Robert Russa Moton has certainly started off badly. The National Republican committee, at Chicago, paid entirely too much deference and respect to the "illy-white" Republicans (?) of the South. We hope the delegates to the Republican National convention understand thoroughly Col. Theodore "Brownville" Roosevelt's "progressive" bluff. Be sure to read carefully the "Doings of the Race" department in this paper. It alone is always worth the price of the paper. Unlike most people, we do not look for the nomination of a Republican candidate for President before the first of next week. The logical candidate is Gov. Chas. S. Whitman of N. Y. State and we hope to see him named. We said this early last year and still stick to it. He is acceptable to all elements of the party and to the Progressives. The G. O. P. must carry his state and Indiana to win and he is the only Republican that has carried N. Y. state in recent years. Rev. Ernest Lyon, editor of the Baltimore (Md). Commonwealth and consul-general to the U. S. for the republic of Liberia, Africa, who refers to himself as "an itinerant preacher in the M. E. Church of thirty-three years" standing," has certainly been "panning" the Afro-American delegates to the recent general conference of that Church, held at Saratoga Springs, N. Y. He accuses such men as Dr. J. W. E. Bowen, Editor R. E. Jones of the W. S. Christian Advocate, Prof. I. Garland Penn and others equally prominent in the M. E. Church with being a truckling, selfish, jealous set and is apparently proving his charge in a series of interesting articles in his paper. In all of the Theodore E. Burton's 20 years or more in Congress not one word, bill or resolution of any kind in the direct interest of our people could he be induced to say, or introduce. When he was appealed to, by our leading residents of Washington, D.C., during the closing days of his last term in the U. S. Senate, he flatly refused to comply with their request to introduce a resolution of vital interest to the race. We would as soon vote for Roosevelt or Borah as Burton and we have known the latter well, personally, ever since he came to Cleveland from Oberlin to reside, many years ago. HE IS NO FRIEND OF OUR RACE. Our delegates must NOT vote for him! Senator Norris, of Nebraska, a Progressive but in the ranks of the Republican party, gave an amusing account of the Democratic record on the Panama tolls question, a few days ago. He recalled the fact that ever since the question first came up he advocated charging American ships the same tolls as ships of other nations. Democratic editors denounced him as a "railroad senator" and pointed to President Wilson's campaign speech advocating free tolls. When Wilson changed his attitude on the question, the Democratic members changed their votes, the Democratic editors became advocates of the very policy Norris had been pursuing, but they failed to commend him. It is every day more evident to political observers that there is a wide difference between, the Democratic party and the Democratic leaders. The party is made up of individuals in all the states who have high ideals and who are devoted to the welfare of the whole country. The Democratic leadership is drawn almost entirely from the South, and its principles are subordinated to local interests and temporary partisan advantage. The party has desired economy, efficiency, observance of the merit system in the government service, and fulfillment of platform pledges. The leadership has been willing to disregard campaign promises, to throw the government service into the old, discarded spoils system, and has been willing to appropriate public funds for any old purpose, just so it helped a Democratic district. It is apparent that there are enough independent voters in the membership of the Democratic party to rebuke the leaders at the polls in November. The Raleigh (N. C.) News andObserver, owned by Secretary of WarJosephus Daniels, says that theDemocratic party bases its strength uponthe people composing that party. Thefigures show that in 1912 there were6,293,000 Democratic votes cast, whilethere were 7,600,000 votes cast for theProgressive and Republican candidates. Mr. Bryan says that it isevident that the Progressives have goneback into the Republican party. Justwhat Josephus expects to make outof his statement, it is difficult to understand. Elections in 1914 showed largedecreases in Democratic votes. Nobodyclaims that the Democratshave made any gain anywhere, not even inthe solid South. There will be more than 8,000,000 Republican votes castin1916, and less than 6,000,000Democratic votes. PROTECTION SENTIMENT AMONG DEMOCRATS. It is evident that there is a wide difference of opinion among Democrats upon the tariff question. W. J. Bryan lauds the Underwood-Wilson tariff act as the best this country has had in 50 years. He is absolutely opposed to any concessions to the protectionist idea. His protege Josephus Daniels, Secretary of the Navy, and heretofore an ardent free trader, shows signs of becoming a protectionist, for his latest issue of the Raleigh (N. C.) "News and Observer" says that further laws may be passed which will "aid our people" and give this country its needed revenue. "Aid our people" is another expression for a protective tariff. If a tariff rate is not high enough to constitute protection it cannot in any way "aid the peo-ple." But there will not be a genuine protective tariff plank in the Democratic platform. Therefore, those thousands of Democrats who have be come convinced that the protective tariff is necessary for the prosperity of this country will have to vote the Republican ticket in order to make their wishes known. There will be plenty of such Democrats in North Carolina, and Daniels is shrewd enough to recognize the drift of pubic sentiment in his home State. PLENTY OF WILSON CAMPAIGN MONEY. Henry Morgenthan, who has resigned the embassy at Constantinople in order to help the Wilson campaign for re-election, says there will be plenty of money for the canvass. Mr. Morgenthan was himself one of the most generous contributors to the Wilson fund of four years ago—as were many others who have since been transplanted to the diplomatic service—and the money which he gave in 1912 for a prospect he will doubtless duplicate this year for having had his honors. Likewise the gentleman who will succeed Mr. Morgenthan. Likewise the other gentlemen who have not resigned their embassies. Likewise the gentleman who will hope to have embassies in case Wilson should happen to "get by" once more. In addition there are all the enterprises which have come under the beneficent purview of the Federal Trade Commission, the importers who have profited so largely by the constantly increasing volume of goods brought into this country despite the war and because of the low rates of the war laid by the Underwood tariff, the federal office-holders who will come across with a considerable percentage of their salaries, the men who have ships to sell to the Government at exorbitant prices in case the shipping bill should become a law, and many other classes who will be "held up" under one pretext or another. In short money will be the last thing which the Wilson campaign managers will lack. They will have a war-chest such as no campaign has ever seen. But this election will not be won with money. There are issues pending this year which cannot be screened by gold. For example, though the Democratic campaign treasurer may be able to boast a handsome surplus, the treasurer of the United States will be in no such happy situation. What will I profit the Democrats to stuff their campaign barrel with boodle while the Federal treasury continues to give forth only a hollow, rattling sound? "A PLACE IN THE SUN." If we are to occupy and hold "a place in the sun," we must not only cultivate self-respect and race-respect, but we must win and hold the respect of other races. No race is respected that does not respect itself. It has no identity, no ideality, no cohesiveness. It can never stand in the day of trial Race uplift can only come by promoting those traits and ideals which stand for equal rights for its members. If we accept anything less with out protest, we acknowledge that we believe ourselves to be inferior—to be polio迅ers in the house of some other race. No race ever gained anything by cringing, by shameful, degrading servility; and every Colored man of woman who submits to these things without protest, and indirectly, teaches others to submit, is laying the foundation for future degradation of the race. The races that are respected are the races that have continually contested for "a place in the sun" until they won it. If the Colored race in America is to succeed, if its merit is finally to be recognized by all races in all lands, it must ride where other people ride; it must eat where other people eat. It must not tamely submit to being kicked off Pullman cars, out of eating places and places of amusement. If we do not contend for our just rights, we shall be Russianized, like the Jew in Russia. If we are willing to be slapped on one cheek, next time we may be slapped on both cheeks, and, maybe, knocked down with impunity. Submission encourages boldness and injustice. It destroys self-confidence, self-respect. It destroys initiative, efficiency and real manhood. Let us stand up and be MEN—not serfs, peons and parishs. And as mentors, let us not set banal examples for others. There are those who tell us that we will get more rights by keeping quiet; but we know how other races have won their rights. We do not want to be Chinalized. R. W. E. PERGUSON. Albany, O. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1916 FRESH OHIO.

POSTMASTER Explains the Delay La Delivery of "The azette Lack of labor in this country because of the European war offers a golden opportunity to the Afro-American, delegates to the district conference of the N. A. A. C. P. were told last week, by D. J. Campbell, superintendent of the Ferro Machine & Foundry Company. "I do not know how many plants in Cleveland are open to colored men, but I am convinced that which company have to change their policy within the next three months," said Mr. Campbell. "Europe has stopped sending workmen and has taken away most of the foreign labor we had. It won't be long before the Afro-American will be absorbed in the unions, if only because of numerical strength. Employers are sending into the south for colored labor." An excellent preliminary address by Attorney F.H. W. Warren of Detroit, chairman, touched on the need for a new American to consideration equal to that accorded any other man. "Our people never will have equal rights until they can submit a candidate for president without starting a sensation," he said. Francis E.

Negroes, members of the Phyllis Wheathley association and St. John's Sunday-school, sat in the auditorium. It certainly was a timely talk and ought to have a good effect generally.

Negroes in general must deplore the ejection of his relatives from a Pullman sleeper this week in the state of Alabama, while they were en route north after witnessing his inauguration. As a widow, wife and brother were within their rights in occupying a sleeper and regardless of his advice to them that they should not attempt to travel in this manner in the south because of the prevailing attitude of the southern whites in the matter of Negroes riding in Pullman cars, we admire the courage of his kin-folks to at least attempt to enjoy the privilege granted all American citizens. We do not believe that because we are Negroes and because southern sentiment is against our enjoying the privilege granted all American citizens should sip impatiently and by allow our privileges to be abridged. If we as Negroes tamely submit to every restriction which is placed upon us by sentiment, then we may very soon expect to have but few rights which others will respect—Savannah (Ga.) Tribune.

POSTMASTER MURPHY Explains the Delay Last Week in the Delivery of "The Gazette" in Cleveland and Regrets it Ex- ceedingly.—So Do We. Saturday, June 2, 1916. Mr. Wm. Murphy, Postmaster. Friend Murphy:—I tried to get you by 'phone, this noon, but failed because you were at lunch, so Assistant Pestmaster Schutt informed me. As far as I am able to learn, the copies of The Gazette mailed on Thursday, June 1, 1916, about 7 p. m., have not been delivered to my agents and subscribers in this city. It was about 1.30 noon when I first "phone" at the office. I met over the 'phone, that the clerks had reported "handling" my paper, "yesterday" (Friday). Between 5.30 p. m. and 7 p. m. today, I went to the agents on the enclosed list and was told by them, and several subscribers whom I met en route, that none of them had received The Gazette, this week. If the papers (Gazette) were "handled," they would have been reported to Mr. Schutt, what prevented their delivery; today? Why were they not "handled"? Thursday night, as is the rule? And delivered on Friday? Will you please ascertain at once the cause of the two day and two night delay? The delivery of the papers to the agents in this city, and elsewhere in the country, Monday morning, will make them almost a total LOSS to reading at the very latest. Most people want them on Fridays and Saturdays and are used to receiving them on those days in Cleveland and elsewhere in the state of Ohio. Hoping you will be able to afford me the desired information at an early date, I am Yours truly, Harry C. Smith, Editor and Proprietor of The Gazette. To the above communication, Post- master Murphy sent us the following reply, Wednesday afternoon: Cleveland, O, June 7, 1915. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—Replying to your complaint of the delay in the delivery of The Gazette mailed to your subscribers in this city, last week, I beg to advise that the records show that The Gazette was properly malled. Thursday evening, and so far as can be ascertained were promptly handled (in part). A most searching investigation has been made with a view to determining the cause of the delay in the delivery to the city subcriber. It is clear that thus far it has been impossible to obtain any definite information on the subject. It would appear, however, that the sack containing the papers for city subscribers was missent to some other office and subsequently returned to Cleveland, as a thorough search was made of all mail in the office twice on Saturday afternoon without finding any trace of the same. One clerk, however, has been found with distinct papers from those in the city Saturday evening, which clearly indicates that the postal service is responsible for the delay, which is regretted exceedingly. I assure you that the greatest pre-caution will be taken to avoid a repel Patrolman Charles Shearer, of the E. 27th St. station, was arrested, Tuesday, on a charge of manslaughter, growing out of the killing of Arthur Ody, after Shearer and Patrolman Meier had raided a place at 2677 E. 23d St. on the night of May 14. Ody, who lived at 1259 E. 12th St., was shot by Shearer while he and seven others were being taken to a patrol box. Ody tried to get away. Shearer, who lies in the hospital, bailed and was released. This is the case The Gazette has been trying to get the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. interested in. Ody was a member of the race, and the case seems to be one of "cold-blooded murder." The first concert of the Coleridze-Taylor male chorus, Miss Rachel Walker, director, given at Mt. Zion Cong, church, Wednesday evening, was a distinct success, artistically and financially. The soloists: M. Marlo Ody, O. C.

Resembled Semitailored Suit but Is Suitable for All Kinds of Outdoor Pastimes—Can Be Made for Little Money. The sports dress is almost a newcomer in fashiondom. For years sports suits, sports coats and sports skirts have been in the limelight; but only recently did the sports dress make its plea for favor. And it must be admitted the little stranger has received a very generous welcome. Among the sports dresses recently placed on the market a number are made of silk or wool jersey cloth, an equal number, perhaps, of pongee and tussah, etc., usually plain one-tone and striped, checked or polka-dotted fabric being combined. The popular fancy is for a costume that closely resembles an ordinary sports suit, in that a portfolk, Russian or middy blouse is developed with a simple gathered or plaited skirt. But once the sports dress was introduced and women discovered it was possible to have a garment that to all outward appearance was a modish semitailored suit but that it reality was an all-in-one garment, wearing which they might indulge in golf or any other of their favored sports and come unrumpled from the game, the widest possible fabric range was to be expected. The sports dress shown is a one-piece affair, hasmuch as the bodice lining, to which the skirt is attached, is joined at the armhole to the chic jackquette, the sleeve seams securing them. The fabric employed for this little frock is navy blue serge. Six and a half yards is required, which, at $1.25 a yard, amounts to about $8.25. Three- 1 Sports Dress of Navy Blue Serge. quarters of a yard of checked taffeta in green and blue trims the frock, and at $1.50 a yard this would be about $1. Estimating lining, thread, etc, at $2, the dress, if built at home, would cost $12.75. The skirt is $4½ yards wide, finished, and the sleeves, cut bell shape at the wrist, give arm play and freedom required in a garment for sports wear. The generous pockets, amphysized by the hip-length inner panels of silk, should be regarded as more for show than use, if the frock's owner would avoid losing the original chic and close-reeef silhouette. — Washington Star. Ideas for Sports Clothes. Alice Maynard, who really introduced the sweater for women in America, and who has always the most interesting of sports clothes to offer, is showing several suits that are well worthy of description, whether they are fashioned of the wool jersey, the silk tricot, crepe de chine, or Italian silk, depends on the individual taste and pocketbook. They are rather expensive, for at least three yards of the wide materials are necessary for the skirt alone, and as for the jacket—it is either long, with straight lines, or very short and jaunty. The skirt of one suit was banded with two wide bands of the same material. The bands ran around the skirt below the hips and met in the center front in points. The jacket was the twenty-six-inch length, with ragian sleeves and two wide box plats in the back, held in at the waist with a belt, which was loosely tied in the front. The whole jacket was lined Workbags in Sets. The workbag to hold embroidery, book or magazine, has always been a winter and summer resort fad. These bags have now developed into sets, and a great deal of originality is displayed in their shapes and materials. One set shows the futurist note strongly. It is made of a soft pale silk and has flat futurist roses embroidered to it. The bag is oval-shaped, resembling those which appeared during the winter in velvet. The bonnet is a demure little shape after the style of the advanced bonnet-shaped toques which have come in with bygone modes. Some of the sets are composed of scarf, cushion and workbag. Every material is used to make those sets, from fine cretones to elegant brocaded multicolored satins and silks. Lingerie Dresses. White net is being used for lingerie dresses this season. The washable white net is selected, and when the pretty frock is soiled it may be sent to the laundry along with white dimity C. L. H. W. An ideal outfit for the summer girl. Suit of white serge, coat having new cape effect and braided in broad capes. This is the very latest in beach costumes; the coat is belted in back and is fastened in front by one large button. The coat has large lapels and the caped shoulders are an innovation for summer costumes. The skirt is loose and hangs in long lines. with white Italian silk, the collar and cuffs formed of knitted silk developed in gold colored silk. It was lovely. The coat could be worn separately with a white skirt. The second was a very jaunty little affair, of American Beauty colored silk with a short coat ending a bit below the waist in a full peplum—the sleeves of the jacket were three-quarters in length and of the peasant idea—wide towards the hand. The skirt was a charming model with a deep yoke at the back that tapered to nothing in the front. This skirt also had two wide bands as trimming. Skirts Conceal the Ankles. Those who criticize the generous display of ankle which fashion has sanctioned of late, and called for longer skirts, find that in the new models their wishes have been met, though not, perhaps, quite in the way they desired or expected. Beneath the hem of some of the latest jupes are plainly visible, sometimes to the depth of three or four inches, a succession of tiny frills placed on an unponderable foundation of ninon or some similar substance. Thus has fashion avenged itself on critics, and thus does the underskirt give tangible proof of its existence. But this etheral petticoat, which is, after all, only an apology for that once more essential garment, and is really a lining in disguise, is not alone sufficient to perform the whole duty of a jupon which, in the absence of hoop or whalebone, is to lend support to the skirt under which it is worn. For that the services of the new foundation petticoat are enlisted, a garment of which the breadth and stiffness might be embarrassed were it not for the restraint which characterizes its frills, and its flaring career ends somewhere about the knees. Stitches for Turned-Over Petals. "When in doubt as to which direction the stitches should take in any turned-over leaf or petal," says Minnie Berry, in the New York Sunday American, "draw the leaf or petal unturned on a piece of paper, marking lines for the stitching as they would lie if worked. Cut out this petal with the scissors and turn over the edge as it is in the design. Hold the paper up to the light (close to a window pane), and the line will show through the turned-over part to indicate the direction which the stitches should take." Washable Corset Bag. A nice washable corset bag can be made of white poplin. Embroider a wreath in cross-stitch in any desired color and finish with a four-inch hem which is stitched to form the casing for a ribbon. Smoothly Fitting Veil. A veil, designed by a Boston woman, has a neckband forming the lower edge. This is fastened in the back with a clasp and prevents the veil from bunching. and lawn costumes. These white net dresses are rather simply made, with ruffled skirts, or full, gathered skirts tucked in groups. Shirrings are lovely in net, but they do not launder very satisfactorily. Neither do net plaitings. So it is best to use narrow white lace or frilled footing as a trimming on bodice and sleeves. Snap fasteners close such a frock invisibly, and usually there is a slip of accordion-pliated daphne silk, or of pussy-will taffetta to go underneath. Such a frock may be worn at a very informal afternoon affair, or—with handsome sash, tinted pussy-will lining, and dainty slippers—at a formal evening affair in summer. For Thick Lips. Very thick lips may be held in a way so that a part of them is concealed in the fold of the mouth, while a little attention to a mouth unduly wide will prevent its owner from spreading it too much with speech, and teach her how to keep it at all times within reasonable bounds. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 10, 1916. STYLES IN BLOUSES DECORATION FOR SOFT SILKS BLUE MOST POPULAR COLOR WIDE CHOICE BOTH IN MATE RIALS AND FASHIONING. Georgette Crepe Continues a Close Second to Chiffon in Favor — White Silk Net Much Used by Smart Dressmakers. Ever since the mill people learned to make chiffon cloth that was transparent and serviceable, women have gladiately accepted it for blouses. Often they adopt the French trick of putting in a shoulderless lining of flesh-colored or white lace, and this, like many other things founded on the French knowledge of thrift and economy, keeps the garment in better condition and makes it give longer service. This lining is loose and is made like a deep girdle, and instead Dainty Blouse of White Organdie With Collar and Cuffs Embroidered in Light Blue. of attaching it in even the filmmiest way to the outside fabric, it is better to give it shoulder straps of narrow, flesh-colored satin ribbon. As a rival to chiffon cloth, georgette crepe has proven the most successful fabric. Its predecessors were failures, but it serves the need. It will remain in fashion as far ahead as a prophet can see, and yet it is having to share the honors of the hour with several other fabrics that have been brought to the front. Fine, colored muslins, solid and Many Ideas Hav. Been Put Forward Some Highly Decorative and Some In Quater Forms. Quantit medallions and bouquets and prim little baskets of flowers are scattered over the surface of soft silks. Rings of several colors and of irregular shapes are dropped at widely spaced intervals over other silks, and on others highly decorative patterns are used. Lovely georgette crepes have baskets of flowers scattered over the surface. A fine taffetta broche which combines crispness and softness in just the right degree is ornamented with a little flower which never grew on land or sea. Stripes are very fashionable and are cleverly used. Gay-patterned linings are used in coats and suits. Delicate organdie embroideries are used in a number of dainty ways; many are lightly touched in color, especially old blue and delicate rose. Embroidered nets touched in color are used for entire frocks as well as for trimmings. MAKE WORK FOR LAUNDRESS Tub Petticoats With Colored Ruffles Are to Be the Correct Things for the Summer Garments. Six yards is the correct width for a summer petticoat this season and one cannot help pitying the poor laundress who has had a long and blessed rest from starching and fluting crisp petticoat frills. Some petticoats to be sure own to but three yards, but these are the most inexpensive and humble models. As the price advances the width advances, and the number of frills also. Four ruffles of embroidery, overlapping from knee to hem, is a pretty trimming; especially when the embroidery is the fine scallop-and-dot kind always in good taste. A new petticoat which is already very popular has four ruffles of fine lawn edged with narrow handkerchief hems in some pretty color; and the ruffles are stitched to the petticoat with colored threads to match. With pink or blue edged frills and stitching, these new tub petticoats are really enchanting. Lots of folk do not know that the best medicine for an unhappy mind is hard work. Every Shade of This Always Serviceable Hue is Employed for All Sorts of Costumes. There is a sudden rage for blue, not only navy and midnight blue that are always good for daytime wear, but the other more brilliant blues. Bluette, king's blue, royal blue, Joffre, Nattier and horizon are all excellent. Pink has almost no popularity, but blue, mauve and yellows are going strong. It is interesting to note that the textile manufacturers have already issued their color card for the approaching winter season. Women seldom realize that such matters are arranged many months ahead, but so it is with the foresighted commercial kings. There are 18 different shades of blue on the silk card, and 15 shades each of red and rose. Would you think it possible? And each little color has a name that's all its own. The three greens that are being exploited are Alsace, Vosges and laurel. striped, are in the forefront of fashion, and white and colored organdies, which have been so extensively used for neckwear, have been cordially taken up by the makers of blouses. The plain white organdie waists are embroidered with one or more colors, sometimes in the simple and everpleasing design of scallops, again in polka dots and triangles of brilliant red and blue, green, black, and yellow. Because polka-dot frocks are in fashion, we will be able to wear separate blouses of polka-dot fabrics with the pleased feeling that we are quite in the middle of the picture. Taffeta and satin are not looked upon with any degree of warmth, but taffeta is applied to chiffon and then embroidered in gold and silver, to build up an ornate blouse. White silk net of such a thinness of weave that one is caused to mistake it for tulle, has crept downward in the scale of dressing from a ball gown to a blouse. Its acceptance by the smart dressmakers for this purpose leads the way for the new nets that have come over from France for gowns, as such point 'd'esprit and the net with the square or dot woven in it. The former is especially attractive for a blouse to be worn with a thin serge or silk suit. Everyone knows by this time that the smartest of French blouses drops over the skirt instead of going under it, after the manner of a miniature Russian blouse. Cherruit sent this out in white organdie, with a sash of colored silk, and it has led the way for a dozen other conceptions by our own dressmakers. One of the most successful ways in which it has been copied is in colored silk jersey, touched up with a simple embroidered design in other brilliant colors, and held in by a wide belt of knitted silk like a man's cravat, fastened with a large, oblong silver buckle. Some of these blouses are in white with a Pierrot design of black embroidery, but others, intended for country wear, are of yellow, turquoise blue, and apple green. They fasten down the left side in a straight line from shoulder to hem and have a loose, mufflerlike collar and also fastens at the side, under the left ear. The majority of the sleeves are long in the summer blouses, as well as loose, and end in an ornamental cuff. They are just as apt to have a high neck as a low neck.

Untidy Coiffure When little scraggly ends of hair hang down over your collar all you need is a good brush, some back combs and a little perseverance to make them stay up with the rest. When arranging your colfur brush these ends up briskly and then place two back combs where they are needed. These shades are soft and a bit bluish. Apartel is a new green. Among the grays we find Italian gray, La Clotat and obscurite, the last being our old friend mite gray and no other. Saloniki yellow is much like our previous acquaintance known as "mus tard." The old bluish have taken on a metallic tone that is interesting, and there is a new dark blue that is almost black which is known as Freigate. For Baby's Carriage Three alternate squares of pink and white poplin were used three rows deep to make a baby carriage cover. The white squares were embroidered in wreaths of green with tiny delicately-colored flowers. Embroidered Turkish Towels. Turkish towels are now being made with a deep border to be embroidered. The cross-stitch and the French knots are the two most popular stitches used on Turkish towels. As a Child Thinks, So He Acts A Single Child Was "Punished" by Being Allowed to Watch the Rabbit. A little girl who had had very little now the child thinks. A MOTHER who took enough interest in her children to try to find out what they were doing when away from home made it a practice to ask them from time to time whether anything unusual or interesting had occurred in school of late. One day the youngest boy, still in the kindergarten, reported that he had been made to sit by himself when the rest of the children were having an "assembly." "And why did Miss Jenny make you sit off alone?" asked the mother. "I don't know," said Donald, "I was saying something to a little girl, and Miss Jenny told me to sit in the other chair and think." "Then what did you do?" "Then I thought, and I thought." "What did you think?" pursued the mother. "I think about Santa Claus." When you say to a child, "Don't talk now, just sit still and think," what do you expect him to do? Miss Jennie probably expected the child to reflect on the enormity of his transgressions and to make solemn resolutions never to violate the rule again. But Donald, prohibited from carrying on interesting conversation, was compelled to think, and he most naturally thought of the most interesting topic. The failure of the child to do what is desired is very often our failure to make him understand just what we do wish to have him do; and much of the misunderstanding is related to the ambiguity and obscurity of the language we use. MOTHER'S COOK BOOK Soak a cupful of breadcrumbs in a cupful of hot milk. Beat six egg yolks and add to the crumbs with salt and pepper. Fold in the beaten whites of the eggs and bake in a thickly buttered pan in a rather hot oven for 15 minutes. This is very good served with a garnish of green peas or tomato sauce. Apple Salad. Take equal parts of diced apple, celery and a few blanched walnuts, mix with enough mayonnaise to moisten well and add one tablespoonful of horseradish to each pint of salad. Diced pineapple may be used instead of the nuts, making a pleasant variety. Spinach. This is one of the valuable vegetable tables which supply us with iron. Wash it carefully and put it to cook with no water but that which clings to the leaves. Cover at first until its own juice flows, then open and boil till tender, watching it carefully and turning it to keep it from scorching. Chop very fine and serve with hard-cooked eggs as a garnish, or simply with vinegar and a seasoning of salt, pepper and butter. Whole-Wheat Pudding. Take two cupfuls of whole-wheat flour, a half teaspoonful of soda, a cupful of milk, a half teaspoonful of salt, a cupful of dates and a half cupful of molasses, beat well, and steam 2½ hours in a buttered mold. If thick sour milk is used, add a teaspoonful of soda. Serve with whipped cream, plain cream or any preferred liquid sauce. Rhubarb and Raisin Pudding Here is one you can give the children: Take a pint of rhubarb cut in half-inch pieces, sprinkled with a cupful of sugar. Let stand an hour or more. Toss a pint of breadcrumbs into three tablespoonfuls of melted butter. Put in layers into a baking dish, sprinkling a cupful of raisins in between, having the crumbs on top. Cover closely the first half hour and bake one hour. Serve with a sauce or with beaten cream. Bread spread with butter and the rhubarb and raisins put over it in layers is another splendid pudding, also baked. Bananas baked with butter, sugar and lemon juice for a sauce are delicious served with beefsteak. Nellie Maxwell Too Technical. "You say he is the author of several successful books?" "Yes," replied the amateur farmer. "Novels!" "No. They are up-to-date books on agriculture. Since his purpose seems to have been to baffle the reader, I consider every one of them an unqualified success." Parsons Profit From War. One result of the phenomenal grain prices ruling in Scotland is that the salaries of parish ministers of the established church will be increased this year by anything from $250 to $1,000. The amount of these salaries is governed by the prices of wheat and barley, and big prices for the former mean big wages for the parson. On the other hand, the professors of divinity in the Scottish universities will suffer a loss in salary of $500 or the experience with "punishment" at home, was getting her first lessons on the subject when she went to kindergarten. Every irregularity in conduct was "punished" by the young woman in charge by imposing upon the culprit something equally irregular. That is, to the teacher the improper act was followed by a punishment, but to the child "punishment" meant simply receiving some exceptional attention from the nice young lady. When all the other children were playing in the ring, the child to be "punished" was distinguished by being permitted to sit in the corner and look on. While the other children were singing a song, a single child was "punished" by being allowed to watch the rabbit. This little girl came, in a short time, to report gleefully that she herself or some of her colleagues had been punished, and it was very evident that there was no remorse or shame associated with the experience. We cannot depend upon the children to insure clear understanding of our wishes and our intent. The responsibility for this lies with parents and teachers, or others who have to do with children. It is for this reason that we should hesitate to condemn a child for anything that appears queen or perverse in his reasoning or conduct, until we are quite sure that we understand just what mental processes led to the conclusions upon which he acted. And it is for this reason that we should make a special effort to understand just what and just how the child thinks. POULTRY NOTES It never pays to try to save money on the equipment or food bought for rearing little chicks. They require the best if they are to live and develop in to the most profitable fowls. Never take the chicks out of the incubator as soon as they are hatched, but let them stay in the nursery under the egg tray for 24 hours and get well dried off, able to run around and strong. In damp seasons there is likely to be more moldy and musty material which hens and chicks can get hold of and an effort should be made to prevent their getting such material because it will cause canker in many cases. When chicks are first placed in a brooder they should be kept under the hover most of the time for the first day so that they will not become chilled and so that they will get accustomed to going under the hover for warmth. If the wings of little chicks grow too fast and hang down, they will require too much of the strength of the chicks to carry them around and the big heavy feathers should be cut off close to the wing. Feed only what chicks will eat up quickly so that they will be anxious and greedy for next feed. Provide plenty of green succulent food. Sprouted oats, lettuce, rape, mangels, beets and cabbage are good green foods. They are as necessary for chicks as for laying hens. When each brood of chicks is hatched it should not be placed in coops or Ideals Make Accomplishm Ideals Make Possible Big Accomplishments of Life By NELLIE R. UMSTOTT Along life's way we often meet doubt the practicability and value of ideals are nothing but dreams, rosy men achieve great things in the face way? Is it not because they had a realized? Ideals, to be worth anything, in them practical is the test of manhood. Had our beloved poet, Longfellow we are but common clay, filled with tion on every hand and fall," would immortal poems by which so many a end? He is only one of many. If we have an ideal, be it of it to it with might and main and man chance, some day someone, if only because he loves us. Just as "thoughts are things," weavers. Along life's way we often meet those who betray the fact that they doubt the practicability and value of ideals, but if, as such men believe, ideals are nothing but dreams, rosy and beautiful, yet perishable, why do men achieve great things in the face of every obstacle placed in their pathway? Is it not because they had an ideal and clung to it until it was realized? Ideals, to be worth anything, must be made practical, and making them practical is the test of manhood. Had our beloved poet, Longfellow, said, "Ideals are mere dreams; we are but common clay, filled with besetting sins, born to meet temptation on every hand and fall," would he have had the courage to write his immortal poems by which so many men have been inspired and strengthened? He is only one of many. If we have an ideal, be it of manhood or womanhood, let us cling to it with might and main and make it a part of our lives. Then, perchance, some day someone, if only one, may strive to reach our ideal because he loves us. Just as "thoughts are things," ideals are realities and we are the weavers. so. Like the parish/ministers, their stipend fluctuates with the price of grain, but when grain goes up their rewards go down. Normal Eyes Are Scarce Eight normal eyes were found in an examination of 4,000 persons or 8,000 eyes, Dr. John Ranly asserted in a paper read before the Academy of Medicine recently. His subject was "Diagnosis of Astigmatism." Of the eight normal eyes only two normal pair were found, added the oculist. brooders until the coops and brooders have been thoroughly cleaned and disinfected with some good liquid disinfectant, if they have ever been used before.

A FEW SMILES Blisaful Ignorance. A MAN IN A CAR "Do you know how many miles an hour your car is capable of making?" "No," answered the cautious motorist. "You see, I have never been in such a hurry to reach a certain destination that I was willing to risk breaking my neck trying to get there." "Women patronize moving pictures in large numbers." "How do you account for that?" "Maybe it's because the silent drama offers superior advantages over the spoken play, from the feminine point of view." "In what particular?" "In coming in at the proper moment a woman can learn how a photo-play ends and she can then settle back comfortably to see all the episodes when the film is reversed." ive Parent. "I notice he loafs around home all the time and never does a stroke of work." "Yes. Another degree was recently conferred on him by Mr. Cobles, the degree of 'N, W. K.'" "What does that mean?" "Not worth killing." "Here's an attractive advertisement for summer boarders." "What does it say?" "Act as if you owned the earth at our place and we'll act as if we were going to give it to you." A Cogent Plea. "Mister, would you be willin' to help a war victim?" "Of course I would." "Then you ought to be willin' to give me a dime. You know they say charity begins at home." Play Lessens Child Crime. Juvenile delinquency has decreased 45 to 60 per cent as a result of the public playgrounds movement, said Ernest L. Tustin, president of the department of recreation in an address before the City Recreation club. The Philadelphia playgrounds system, he said, is a model, and it has been achieved at a much smaller cost than those of New York or Chicago. This city has spent 1,500,000, as compared with $13,000,000 in New York and $11,000,000 in Chicago.
