THIRTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. 51. IN UBICAN PROSPERITY YOUNG PROMOTED! Our Highest Officer; They Could Not Hold This Ohio Boy Back; His Rise Steady, the Result of Study, Intelligence, Ability and Close Application Wilberforce, O. — The appointment of Major Charles Young, U. S. A., as Lieutenant-Colonel, was made on July 1, together with a number of other U. S. army officers. This news will be received with great interest by his many friends in Ohio and throughout the country. On June 25, he received a message from General Pershing's headquarters, asking him to report at Dublin, Mexico, where he was examined by Brig. Gun Pershing, Col. Berry, and other high army officers. Following the examination he received his promotion of Lieutenant-Colonel. Major Young well merits the honors conferred upon him in the U. S. Army. He has proven his ability as a soldier of the first rank. He is a graduate of Wet. Point and his mental average in the army stands high and few men of his years, in the army, has seen more practical service than he. Just recently he returned to Africa where he published the Liaison Constabulary, and the military police forces in that country are now considered among the best, due chiefly to the unceasing labor of Major Young. He has been given meritorious praise for his work in this connection, and as a consideration of his high military achievements, he was awarded the Spingarn medal, which is given annually to the Afro-American who accomplishes the greatest work. Major Young was among the first to hold the gold statement that he was stationed in Brownsville, Texas, is without foundation, and should not be credited. He is simply "somewhere in Mexico" and has command *c* the second squadron of the LIEUT. COL. CHARLES YOUNG. Tenth Cavalry. The Major is simply one among many of the race who have demonstrated to the world that America should be proud of our loyal people. Major and Mrs. Young and his mother live here. EIGHT IN ONE GRAVE Capt. Boyd and Lieut. Adair In a Ditch With Six Afro-American Troopers—Carrilal Victims. El Paso, Tex.—The bodies of Capt. Charles T. Boyd, Lt. Henry Adaly and seven Afro-American troopers of the Tenth cavalry, killed at Carrizal, Mexico, were brought to El Paso early last week Thursday. Only the bodies of the two officers and Private Dewitt Rucker have been identified. Eight of the Americans were exhumed from a single grave. Stripped of their form, the remains of the field of battle and cast into a ditch which was then filled up. The body of the ninth trooper was located two miles distant from the others. He had been wounded, and apparently had dragged himself away to die in the gravel waste beyond the town. Examination of the bodies showed Capt. Boyd was shot through the right eye and that Lieut. Adalr's death result from a wound. He was taken out of the casket and were covered with flags. The mounted band of the Eight cavalry, which arrived in the meantime, played "Nearer, My God, to Thee." The bend next played the Chopin funeral march, squash, of diam. United soldiers fell in beside the ambulance, behind, each of which a riderless horse was led, the officers and men followed, and the cortege moved off between people who paraded in front. At the chapel a undertaking established a brief funeral service was read by Chaplain W. W. Brander of the Eighth cavalry. The fate of the 14 Afro-American soldiers still missing as a result of the Carrizal massacre is still a mystery here. It is believed their bodies were either cremated by the Carrizistas or left lying in the desert, the prey of wolves. Captain Boyd's body was laid to rest in Arlington cemetery (near his military honors). Lieut. Adalr's Adam's body was sent to his former home at Portland, Ore., July 3. That of DeWitt Rucker, the only identity identified, was shipped to his home at Hartwell, Ga. THE GAZETTE BAPTISTS HONOR DR. J. H. EASON Prominent Alabama Minister Given Divinity Degree. Career of a Former Solma University Professor Who Has Won Distinction In Many Lines of Constructive Work. Church Erected at Anniston, Ala., a Monument to His Genius. Birmingham, Ala. — After preaching a very able baccalaureate sermon at the recent annual commencement exercises of Benedict college, Columbia, S.C., the degree of doctor of divinity was conferred on the Rev. J. H. Eason, pastor of the Jackson Street Baptist church of this city and for more than REV. J. H. EASON, D.D. oine years president of the Alabama Baptist state convention, which has more than 300,000 members. Dr. Eason was the recipient of many congratulations from the faculty and trustees of the school, which is run under the auspices of the Baptist home missionary board of New York. Dr. Eason's subject was, "The Dignity and Glory of Man." Born in the black belt of Alabama of good and influential parentage, Dr. Eason was given a liberal education in the public school of his home. He finished his literary training at Selma university. He later graduated from the theological course of Union university, Richmond, Ya., with honors. In 1000 honorary degrees were conferred on him by Gundalupe college. Those who know Dr. Eason understand that he is very much averse to degrees, and it was with much reluctance that he consented to receive them. Some time ago it was proposed that the degree of LL.D. he conferred on him by Selma university, of which institution he is a trustee. But he was too modest to accept it. He is not opposed to degrees, but it seems hard for him to feel satisfied that he is worthy of such honors. It is only the men of real merit that he is willing to vote to have a degree. Being a trustee of Selma university, he has given this phase of honoring men careful study. Dr. Eason has done much literary work for which he has never asked not accepted any certificate of credit. He says he would rather know more than he has learned of knowing him, he credit for knowing what. What Dr. Eason knows he knows thoroughly and sees it clearly and can use it to better advantage than most men. He is a great theologian, yet he claims that he does not study theology much, but that he studies God. For many years Dr. Eason was professor of mathematics and metaphysics in the Selma university, beginning very soon after leaving college and during which time he pastored and built many churches in the vicinity of his school work. Perhaps his greatest accomplishment lies in the building of the beautiful Seventeenth Street Church in a cost of more than $25,000 and to which he added one of the finest parsonages in the country. Dr. Eason has traveled extensively throughout this country and Europe. He was a delegate to the world's memorial conference in Edinburgh in 1010. While abroad he filled the pulps of many of the churches of Scotland and England. He traveled in Germany, Belgium and France, being interpreter for his party while in France. Along literary lines he has a number of books and pamphlets to his credit. He wrote the first book that the National Baptist Publication board published, entitled "Sanctification Versus Fanaticism", and for several years was on the editorial staff of the Sunday school literature of the national Baptist convention with Rev. E. C. Morris. He was editor for the Baptist Leader, the organ for the colored Baptist state convention for Alabama for ten years, during which time his editors were of nation wide interest. Many of Dr. Eason's friends recently urged him to run for the presidency of Selma university, but he declined in favor of a friend. As a platform ortor Dr. Eason is in constant demand, and perhaps there is no other man in Alabama who fills as many speaking engagements as does he since the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington. He is now doing sociological research work and has prepared several manuscripts for a new book. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883, AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE.

BRITISH WILL FIRE UPON U-BOAT AT SIGHT Allies Will Treat Submarine as War Vessel Regardless of U. S. Ruling. Washington, D. C.—British naval vessels will fire upon the German submarine liner Deutschland "at sight." It will be treated as a warship regardless of any ruling the United States government may make. If the Deutschland is destroyed by a British warship the state department will make no inquiries. These facts were made plain at the British embassy and at the state department. The British and French embassies protested to the state department against this government's action in permitting the Deutschland to enter an American port. They protested also against permitting the Deutschland to take on provisions. They declared to the state department that the Deutschland is a warship and therefore is entitled to none of the rights enjoyed by a peaceable merchantman. At the British embassy the position of the British government was outlined as follows: In view of the methods of the submarine warfare employed by Germany in the present war, the Deutschland must be considered as a war vessel. No enemy vessel moving under the water can be considered by Great Britain as anything but a warship, and it will be treated accordingly. It would be absurd to treat a submarine vessel any other way. The British—and the allied—view is that submarine vessels ought not be permitted to take on supplies at all in a neutral port. Norway and Sweden adopted a rule during this war prohibiting access to their jurisdictions of belligerent submarine vessels and aeroplanes. The allies' embassies in Washington were desirous of "dissipating the sentiment that the allied governments regarded the Deutschland as a peaceable merchant ship." It was declared at the British embassy. "We have communicated our point of view to the United States government," an embassy official said. "It is incorrect to say that we are not protesting and are letting the slide by. All the allied governments share the British view." It is said that Italy will make a formal protest also. The 'British protest to the state department means that the right of visit and search and warning will be denied to the Deutschland, to the Bremen and to all other German' submarine merchantmen. It will make no difference, from the British point of view, whether or not the submarine liner carries malls and passengers. The state department received from the treasury the text of the following telegram from Collector of Customs Ryan at Baltimore: "In company with Capt. Hughes, I have made a thorough inspection of the Deutschland. All spaces except those occupied by cargo and oil were visited. There is no evidences that the ship is armed or can be armed without extensive structural changes. I reaffirm my statement of yesterday that this ship is a merchant vessel." The British government is expected to urge the United States to refuse clearance to the Deutschland if it attempts to carry out the cargo of nickel and rubber, ready to be loaded. This objection will be based on the grounds that the agreement by which the government permitted nickel and rubber to be exported into the United States from its possessions was that these articles should not be re-exported to Germany. Five People Killed. Mansfield, O.-Five residents of Loudonville. were killed when the automobile in which they were returning in Loudonville was struck by a Pennsylvania train at Rummells crossing, seven miles east of here. The dead are: Simon S. Nau, 51; Mrs. Matilda Nau, 47 his wife; Albert Mau, 18, his son; Bertum Baur, 68; Mrs. Anna Baum, 53, his wife. The Loudonville parry had driven to Mansfield to attend the funeral of a relative, and were on the way home. FIGURED IN MANY CONTESTS Judge Diamisses Case of the People Against Septimus Rutherford Upon Convincing Argument and Weighty Evidence Produced by Attorney For the Defence. BY JOHN E. BRUCE "GRIT." New York.—In the case of the people against Septimus Rutherford, a well known and popular member of the Salaem Methodist Episcopal church in this city, recently triumphed the legal talent of the colored race triumphed gloriously. Mr. Rutherford was charged with an offense which required a trial by jury. CLIPTON T. A. FRENCH, ESQ. His counselor was Clifton T. A. French, a young attorney of our race whose ability as a practitioner is attracting the attention of the legal profession here in a way that is casual old timers in the profession to look well to their laurels. Upon the completion of the testimony of the complying witness at the trial in question a novel point of law was being argued by the counsel for the people and the defense when the latter created much consternation in the court by the production of evidence of great weight and at the same time made a motion to dismiss the complaint. The court immediately granted the motion with full vindication, and the presiding judge paid Attorney. French a fine personal compliment. It is a high tribute to the legal ability of this young sprig of the law to be called to the bench by presiding Judge Rosalsky (who is austerity personified) and complimented and praised in full-some phrase on his sound knowledge of legal procedure in a case of such vital importance to the defendant and his counsel. His course clearly indicated that he had read the law to some purpose and that he saw in this particular case an opportunity to put it to the test. As soon as he made the motion to dismiss and produced certain evidence to justify his action in defense of his client the learned judge at once saw that he could do no other than to dismiss the complaint. Counsel French had scored. The judge realized it and the prosecuting attorney reluctantly admitted that he was defeated—outpointed, licked "to a frazzle" by a Negro attorney who understood what he wanted and got it. The judge and counsel at the bar owned the force of the Negro's ability and then extended their congratulations to the young disciple of Blackatone who had won a legal victory of which many an old veteran practitioner at the bar would have been proud to have to his credit. But this is not the only legal skirmish in which Mr. French has engaged. Another case in which he secured an acquittal for his client was that of The People versus William - Anderson, which was bitterly contested at every point by this brilliant young man, and ended in the freeing of his client. Mr. French's practice covers both the civil and criminal courts, and thus far he has been successful in gil the cases in which his firm has appeared. Mr. French received the degree of B. A. from New York university and from Columbia the degrees of M. A., LL B, and LL M. In addition, he has completed all the resident work for the degree of Ph. D. and has only to write his thesis to obtain his diploma. Thus the professional men of the race everywhere are demonstrating their ability in the most convincing and gratifying manner to acquit themselves creditably in the learned professions. The French brothers are westerners, and both of them are "live wires." Their future in the legal profession is big with promise, and they will be heard from in some very big cases some day, for they keep abreast of all the latest decisions of the courts, because this is the business of all wide awake, and progressive members of the New York bar. They are not "special lungs" but lawyers who are in New York for the service of this honorable profession. SAMUEL G. DIXON, M. D. Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, commissioner of health of Pennsylvania, is earning the gratitude of the entire state by his energetic campaign to improve the health of its people. In this he is smashing liberal use of both the lecture platform and the press. Eludes Allied War Vessels Off Virginia Capes and Reaohes Destination in Safety. Baltimore. Mit—The German merchant super-submarine Deutschland has arrived in Chesapeake bay. Long expected, ridiculed, fabulous as the sea serpent or the flying Dutchman, she has become a reality and is at her dock at the pier of the Eastern Forwarding Co., Locust Point, Baltimore. She is the largest submarine afloat. The largest German war models are less than 200 feet long, but this submarine of commerce is 315 feet long, exactly one third the length of the largest merchant vessels afloat—the Vaterland and the Imperator. The boat carries no passengers. Her cargo consists entirely of dystufts—a thousand tons of them. This keeps her very low in the water when riding on the surface. Her draft when she was written is 17 feet, and it was largely because of her depth that she did not try to come nearer land when submerged. She is commanded by Capt. Kalrig and has a crew of 29 men. Both captain and crew are drawn from the German merchant fleet and not from the navy. The craft is unarmed and is being treated by the United States officials like any other merchant vessel. It is expected that she submerged whenever she saw any vessel, on the chance that it might be a warship. The English government was not among those who regarded the trans-Atlantic submersible as a joke, and the report is that the Deutschland was chased, for 30 hours by English and French warships. She submerged and eluded them by traveling out of her course 800 miles. Because she was forced to make this detour she has the record for submarine distance travel. The longest trip previously made by any submarine was the 3,500 miles from Kiel to Constantinople made by the U-boat that sank the British battleship Majestic. It is said that the Deutschland traveled 4,180 miles, 1,800 of this being under water. She ran through the North sea submerged practically all the time. She was forced to submerge again for a time when she got two-thirds of the way across when she sighted a Dutch merchant vessel in her path, and some 600 miles off the Virginia coast she was frightened out to sea again for a distance of some 200 miles by enemy warships. But on her return she was able to come to the surface a hundred miles from land and was not forced to submerge again. The Deutschland was met off Cape Henry by the tug Thomas F. Timmons of the Eastern Forwarding Co. She had been waiting at the capes for the past 11 days. Capt Hirsch, the marine superintendent of the Ocean-Transportation Co., as the new merchant submarine line is called, said: "We have proved that the English blockade amounts to nothing. There will be more submarines from Germany. They will be making regular trips just like the big liners from England in a few weeks." Falls on Boy. Kills Him. Youngstown, O. — John Haritz, aged 5 years, was almost instantly killed here when Michael Kliinn fell from his bicycle on the child, breaking the boy's neck. Police report the boy had run into the street before the cyclist, causing the latter to lose his balance. Young Girl le Suicide Wheeling, W. Va. — Mary Howard, a pretty 17-year-old stenographer, who has been making her home with the family of. Edward Tappa since the death of her parents a few years ago, fired a revolver bullet into her brain. She was dead members of the family, who heard the shot, found her in her room. An older sister who had been living with Mary was married about two weeks ago, and grief over the separation is believed to have caused the suicide. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. PRESS TESTIMONIAL FUND Editor Phil H. Brown, of the Hopkinsonville (Ky.). Saturday News, and W. T. Ferguson, the well known Washington, D. C., newspaper writer, have joined The Gazette, as we have repeatedly suggested in recent weeks, in contributing one dollar to a "PRESS TESTIMONIAL FUND" for Editor-Wm. Monroe Trotter of the Boston (Mass.) Guardian who is ill in a hospital where he will be compelled to remain for several months. We suggested that Editor John Mitchell of the Richmond (Va.) Planet or Editor J. R. Clifford of the Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press, dean of the Afro-American editorial corps, accept the contributions from our newspaper men and others who may desire to contribute, and still prefer that they do so. The fact that The Gazette suggested the fund is doubtless the cause of these two contributions being sent to us. The Gazette Editor Phil H. Brown V. P. Patterson Editor W. P. Kemp Editor J. R. Clifford My dear Harry:--I have just read your editorial in reference to Mon Trotter, and am hastening to send you forward my check for $1.00 and to commend you for your usual promptness to say the right thing at the right time. Every Colored newspaper in the United States should make immediate response in this matter. There can be no real differences among race-loving Colored people in reference to the activities of this wonderful, self-sacrificing man. His errors have never been otherwise than the errors of honesty and earnestness in the great cause of the race. He has the master and call upon me further for whatever you think I can do. Your friend. Washington, D.C., June 27, 1916. Friend Smith—The "Gazette's suggestion about Trotter is one that should appeal to every man and woman of our people, and the editors of our papers should join you in circulating the condition of Trotter, and our way toward him. He is my dollar to fulfill that cause. Ohio shall suggest the matter to Wilson of the Eagle. I think it would be the proper thing for Mitchell, in Virginia; Clifford, in West Virginia; Smith, in Ohio; and so on throughout the states to vie with one another in this laudable affair. With all due respect to the earnest editors of our papers, I think I make no mistake in saying none is more worthy our support than Trotter. If the other uses Trotter's description pay up they would not only be doing an honorable duty, but would relieve the man and his wife of an unnecessary strain. With best regards, I am Yours truly. W. T. PERGUSON. Detroit, Mich., July 10, 1916. Hon. Harry C. Smith, My dear colleague—Please find here with my request for you to offer Trotter's Testimonial Fund.

OUR OHIO FEDERATION Of Women's Clubs Hold a Very Successful, Annual Meet—Protest Infamous Photoplay, "The Birth of a Nation"—Mrs. Nellie Piper, Aged 100, Dead. Nexia, O.-Large crowds attended the session of our Ohio Federation of Women's clubs held in Zion Baptist church here, last week Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. A number of fine papers and talks were read and delivered, respectively, by members and others. The addresses of welcome were very cordial indeed and the responses to the same excellent. The specifics of the event were a fund, which is how $499, to help educate our young students, gave new inspiration to many clubs. The state organizer, Mrs. Barnes, of Oberlin, was granted full power to solicit funds for this work. Greetings were read from the Illinois Federation; Ohio Woman's Suffrage club and Ohio Women's Federation, which united with the O. F. of C. W. C., Reports from the departments of exchange, temperance and music were given. The statement that 23 clubs had joined the Federation, this year, Mrs. O. G.

Dear Mr. Smith:—I am sending under another cover the cut of Mr. Trotter, you have asked for. He was at the Mass. Homeopathic hospital. At present he is out, convalescing. The operation on his neck was successful but he is not able to stand the strain of full service at the office owing to his weakened condition. We look for strength in a month's time. He works some now but we wish he would not as it does him no good. Your generous editorial is much ap- Your generous editorial is much appreciated by us. As will be seen, by reference to the foregoing, Editor Trotter is out of the hospital, and convalescing. Several weeks ago we read in his paper, the Guardian, a statement to the effect that his physician had advised his remaining, in the hospital for three months, and that funds were needed. We were under the impression that he was in the hospital and unable to do anything to help himself and family, until the receipt of Mrs. Trotter's letter, published above. In view of the fact that he is not confined to a hospital, we have appointed, we shall forward him the friend, Chairman J. R. Clifford, dean of the Afro-American editorial corps, what contributions have been received, or will be sent us in the future for Mr. Trotter (acknowledging the latter in The Gazette as we have those received to date, Thursday) and suspend further appeal for contributions to the fund. Harry C. Smith. Hallie Q. Brown were heard at the afternoon session. The Federation was tendered a reception on Miss Brown's lawn at Wilberforce, late in the afternoon. Mrs. Minnie Scott of Lima, president of the Federation, delivered her annual address. At the evening session, Thursday at Friday's sessions-it was decided to hold the meeting, next year, in Mt. Vernon; a protest was sent to "the beloved young governor" (Willis) against the infamous photoplay, "The Birth of a Nation," which is in the State Supreme court fighting the State Board of Film censors to exhibit in Ohio and therefore out of the governor's jurisdiction; and the governor's additional reports heard. President Scarborough delivered an excellent address at the evening session, Mrs. Woodson read an interesting paper, the finance, and resolutions committees reported, and the officers for the ensuing year were installed. The consensus of opinion was that this was one of, if not the most successful meet of the Federation. Mr. and Mrs. Arrow reported, and the officers for her mother, Nellie Piper's funeral here.

SATURDAY, JULY 15, 1916. "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. Wilson called on Germany to disavow—which she did a score of times and then repeated the offence each time. Wilson called on Carranza to disavow—and he didn't. Carranza and the Katser look alike to Wilson, it would seem. --- Germany has 75,000 machine guns; France has 45,000; England has 35,000. The United States has 1,000 and of these only about 600 are available, the others being in the Philippines, in the Canal Zone or in use in coast fortifications. Yet the Democrats in Congress objected to permitting the State of Illinois to buy machine guns to be presented to the Illinois militia when it was mustered into the service of the nation. As a matter of fact, Carranza probably has more machine guns than we have—and every one of them was made in this country and was permitted to reach Carranza by the grace of Woodrow Wilson. WILLIS, HOUGH AND THE NINTH BATTALION. Now that the members of the Ninth Battalion, O. N. G., have been returned to their various homes the following from The Gazette of June 24, 1916, can be fully and properly appreciated: NEGRO SOLDIERS PREPARING CAMP FOR OHIO'S ARMY. Ninth Battalion Rushes Preparations at Upper Arlington. Columbus, O.—The four companies of the Ninth battalion located in Cleveland, Dayton, Columbus and Springfield, reported at the mobilization camp here today. These Afro American companies were not included in the mobilization order is issued by the war department, but were ordered here last night by Adjutant General Hough. (To be used in the work of preparing the mobilization camp for the remainder of the troops who are expected to arrive Thursday or early Friday. With the assistance of the Ninth battalion work progressed rapidly today on the construction of the camp. Negroes Will Return When Camp Is Pitched. The Colored troopers, who were not included in President Wilson's call, will be relieved of duty as soon as the camp is completed.—Cleveland (Daily) News, Wednesday, June 21, 1916. BLAME THE WILLIIS ADMINISTRATION. Two regiments (white) and · the Ninth Battalion (Afro-Americans), O N. G., were not ordered to mobilize, but the "Ninth" has been ordered to Columbus to do the drudgery of preparing the state camp for Ohio's white soldiers ordered to mobilize and prepare for service on the border, and in Mexico, too, if it is found necesary to send them there. This is being heralded throughout the state and the country by the daily newspapers greatly to the humiliation of all the manly and womanly of the race. This treatment of our soldiers—the "Ninth" by Gov. Frank B. Willis' boyhood playmate and adjutant-general, Benjamin H. Hough of Delaware, just about makes the good red blood of every Afro-American's body boll. Still again are our people of Ohio grossly insulted by the Willis administration. The local daily papers of Wednesday took pains to announce that when our four companies of the Ninth Battalion have finished the drudgery of preparing the state camp for the white soldiers "they will be sent back home" and not to the Mexican border where even the two white regiments not as yet ordered to mobilize will no doubt be sent. If there is anything calculated to cool the "soldier" ardor of the members of the Ninth Battallion, it certainly ought to be the treatment they are receiving at the hands of the Willis administration through its representative, Adjutant General Ben. H. Hough. Members of Co. D, the local part of the Ninth Battalion, told the editor of The Gazette, Wednesday morning of this week, on their return to the city, that they were required to unload lumber and other wagons, build "shacks" for the commissary department and do other manual labor in addition to performing guard duty, etc.; that convicts from the Ohio penitentiary dug the trenches, etc., and that they were their (our soldiers)' only assistants during at least the first week of their stay at Camp Willis. Also that on July 4th. (note the day) they "were moved from their place in Camp Willis over on 5th Av., a distant part of the camp, away from the white soldiers, as the result of friction arising from the latters' objections to their (our soldiers)' visitors, largely ladies of color." Well, well. WELL! They all agree that Gov. Willis did a number of little things to please and coddle them into thinking well of him, if possible, but the members of the Battalion are at home now, will have plenty of time for careful thought, and can view all phases of this latest Willis episode without the miserable political or other influences that would if it could make them praise the man or men who are responsible for this most aggravating insult—offered them and through them to all the self and race respecting, manly and womanly Afro-Americans in the state of Ohio Adjutant-General Ben. H. Hough was a Willis apointeen until almost within a week, and as chief executive of the state, the governor is responsible for the shameful and insulting mistreatment of the Ninth Battalion that is felt, and keenly, too, by every loya member of the race in Ohio. "COLORED LEADERSHIP." The attempt on the part of certain white people interested in industrial education for our people almost to the point of opposition to any other kind, to select for the race a man or a set of men as the recognized leader or leaders of the race, is at least prejudicial. No man or combination of men could so nominate Theodore Roosevelt leader of the white race of America. The position Mr. Roosevelt occupies in this respect came not from the dictum of interested parties but from the moral worth of the man to the nation as shown by his deeds and words. Even the election of a man to the presidency of this country does not make him the leader of any race. Political goodfortune may be a national or racial calamity. Many white persons frequently say, our people should follow the dictum of certain men of the race whose talk or attitude toward vital questions pleases them. Because of the prejudice extent in this country against the race, and as this prejudice is very largely from white opposition to our men coming on equality with them, any choice for leadership by them for the race smacks of the suspicion that the suggested leader is in accord with their prejudiced point of view. We believe that colored and white men should seek the golden mean of harmony in all things essential for the development of both races, but when a leadership is foisted upon any race and that too against the recognized wishes of the race, that leadership, however backed up by money, will be most bitterly taught. The attempt to make a head of any particular school, the leader of a race, is to bring down upon both the school and its head the opposition of all not in sympathy with the "leader." Certain qualifications a leader must have if he would lead, and devoid of these he will ignominiously fail. Any man who has not a keen appreciation of the worth and rights of his race cannot be the leader of that race. Any man who will surrender the fundamental things that belong to his race, is unfit to lead that race to virile manhood and respectability. The more other races emphasize his fitness, the more his inacceptability will manifest itself. No man dead or alive has ever been the leader of our race in this country. Many men living and dead have been the exponents of many things that contribute largely to the race's welfare. Besides a man who may be a leader in one thing may not be a leader in all. To proclaim the Harvard college as the leader of the white race of America, is to insult that race. Not because 'the side of Harvard is lacking in many advices, noble precepts of many things that contribute largely to the race's welfare. Besides a man who may be a leader in one thing may not be a leader in all. To proclaim the Harvard college as the leader of the white race are so multiplied and varied that no one man can possibly lead in all. The same is true of our race. The insistence by white men that all our men echo the policy or plan of some man of the race they (the whites) like, is a very disturbing element in the progress of the race. The policy of placing unlimited resources in the hands of this leader as well as meeting out to the race only those things this "white appointed leader" dictates, to (subject to the laws of the country) that the slave is that more damnable than peonage, for it attempts to fetter the mind. All we ask of white men, north, south, east and west is to allow our men to come to leadership in the same ways others achieve it. Our race appreciates its great men. It is willing to give them honor and homage, but it is unwilling to bow the knee to any "white man's choice of leadership" simply because this leader fits in with the diseased and prejudiced mind of those opposed to untrained man- Mrs. Baldwin Allen's. She was a remarkable woman. She came to Wilberforce from the South in the early sixties and lived there until four years ago when she came to this city and made her home with her daughter. Despite her great age, until a few weeks ago, she retained all her faculties and could converse fluently. Mrs. Piper was the mother of nine children, four of whom are living: Mrs. Amanda Lewis, Mrs. Josie Allen, Alexander Piper of Frankfort, Mrs. Ella Abbott of several great-grandparents, and great-granddren. Mrs. Piper was a faithful member of Middle Run Baptist church, this city. Funeral services were held at the Allen residence Sunday at 10 a. m.

HAS KILLED FOUR BATHERS Makes Three Raids on Beaches Within Two Weeks; Boys Were Swimming in Creek Two Miles From Raritan Bay. Matawan, N. J.-A shark darted up Matawan creek in the third fatal raid in less than two weeks and darted out again, leaving death in its wake. The shark killed a man and a boy. It mangled another boy, so badly that he will lose a leg and probably will die. The victims of the man-eater were swimming two miles up the creek from Raritan bay when they were attacked. They are: Bit Body Almost in Half. Stanley Fisher, 25, Matawan, who died in the Monmouth hospital, Long Branch. The shark ripped off one of his legs. Lester Stillwell, 12, Matawan, whose body has not been recovered. The shark bit his foul body almost in half and dragged him below the surface. He is believed to have been eaten by the giant. Joseph Dunn, 14, Brooklyn, who is in St. Peter's hospital, New Brunswick. The teeth of the shark slashed and mangled one leg so badly that it will have to be amputated. Young Dunn is probably fatally injured. The shark has killed four bathers thus far this season. Stillwell and a number of other lads were having a swim in the old-fashioned swimming hole, about 50 feet wide, not far from the Matawan station. At the yards of the New Jersey Clay Co. the stream is perhaps 50 feet wide and at high tide eight or 10 feet deep. Near here the boys were sporting about in the cool water. Then came the shark. Charles Van Brunt, 13, one of Stillwell's companions, says he was a huge black fish with a white belly and long fang-like teeth. The shark turned on its back as it shot at young Stillwell. Its teeth sank into his flesh. A shriek of terror and Stillwell was dragged beneath the surface in a red whist of foam. His companions scrambled to the shore, where their horrified cries brought a number of young men running to the bank of the river. Stanley Fisher, a powerful young man, weighing nearly 300 pounds, plunged into the water and made for the spot where the boy had disappeared. Either the shark dropped his first victim or its mate appeared and made a furious attack on Fisher. Snatched Body From Grasp. With its long teeth the shark tore the flesh from Fisher's thigh, stripping it to the bone. Frightfully wounded, Fishie fought the monster. Young Sittie's body was snatched from his grasp by the shark and the fish shot away toward the mouth of the creek. The attack was over in a flash. One of the boys went to Fisher's rescue and he was dragged ashore. He was rushed to the Monmouth Memorial hospital, but he was so terrifying cut and had lost so much blood that he died in a few hours. Young Dunn was attacked by the shark at a place 15 feet farther down the stream. TEN PERSONS INDICTED SAY THAT GIRL MET HER DEATH FROM AN ILLEGAL OPERATION.

For Popular Constructive Effort in Dealing With Vital Social Problems in Our Thickly Populated Sections. Community conditions ostensibly within the thickly populated districts, showing in the majority Colored residents, present a ready and important problem to which we, both white and Colored, must need sooner or later turn our attention. We all without dissent agree that there is something lacking, that something which we feel and believe will point our fellow man to higher and better ideals of living in some practical way. We have come finally to believe that the worthy endeavors of our churches must be augmented by a constructive effort and aided by a saneness of judgment which have only as their ultimate object that which is best for the need of the community. Our survey of social conditions has been a spasmoid one or none at all. The period of a score of years has brought its attendant condition: congested districts where vice and crime flourish, where the good are made bad and the bad worse. The time for real, not just ill, to occur here and long ago past. The time demands careful consideration, breadth of forethought and foresight. It asks for the most evenly balanced among us, both white and Colored citizens, here in Cleveland; to keep in mind and hold as paramount the principles of right and just, cherishing the trappings of virtue, and being in Cleveland are proud and jealous. In just as much as the standard of living, action and thought among the masses of our people is high or low, just so do they register for or against the race at large in this city. Then what further impress for good must and should we make in the more congested communities where our people find homes and shelter? This is a vital question. Vital to both men and women. Vital enough to bring forth concerted and unanimity of action. Vital enough to open the avenues of material assistance and large endeavor, social settlement and community idea should present far reaching possibilities. T. M.

THE DID NOT POLLOW THAT METHOD in dealing with the rumpus in Santo Domingo. The peace and dignity of the United States were not particularly disturbed by that row, but suppressing it was ONLY A LITTLE JOB. Our government doubled up its fists with notable promptitude and at last accounts the United States marine corps was shooting the DoD in a manner into a reasonable frame of mind with neatness and dispatch — Cleveland (Daily) News. "I was niggy glad you caught me—you certainly saved my life," said Andrew Lewis, twenty-one, when he was arrested at Charles Farris, 518 Bolivar rd., by detectives, early last Friday morning. Lewis is known as the tennis slipper thief, owing to his ability to hide with an open pocket knife, the blade of which was five inches long. He is charged with entering a dwelling in the night to commit a felony, and the penalty may be life imprisonment. Lewis said he heard footsteps after entering the house and hid under a bed. "They surrounded me, those guys detained," he said, with detectives. "They had a big butcher knife ready to stick into me. Believe me, I'm niggy glad you came." Speaking of Patrolman Mangan (white), known as "Fighting Jim," who is about to leave the force and enter the government's aerial service, Eli Potts, (white), veteran desk officer at the Central Police station, said one day last week. "Late one No. 100," he said. "You were policemen were called to a riot in the toughest saloon on Centralay. When the three arrived, the racket, as heard from the outside, caused two of them to hesitate. There was no waiting on the part of Mangan, the third man. 'You catch them as I throw them out to you,' Mangan said. He entered the place, tackled the toughest gang in town, and took them out to the officers out of the saloon one by one. The other two policemen loaded the men into a patrol wagon and most of them were taken to a hospital." "A FIGHT TO THE DEATH!" Bowling Green, O.—Charles White, 32, and Samuel Hull, alias Handy Point dexter, 35, members of the race, were killed, early Sunday, as the result of a knife fight in a section camp near Perryburg. According to eye witnesses the two men quarreled and White received eight deep wounds from a knife that hopped aboard a freight train at Perryburg, but was found by a sheriff's posse. He refused to halt when ordered and Deputies Edward Unkert and Arthur Williams shot at him. One bullet entered his left hip. He kept on running for about three hundred feet and then stumbled and fell on the brick pavement. He died fifteen minutes after. Here is a "killing" which we call upon the N. A. A. C. P. of Cleveland to investigate. He is in excusable trouble, having a scuffle with all the circumstances leading up to it. Please call the attention of that organization to our need of their help.

"Experience has shown that when given the opportunity for grateful employment under just and fair conditions, the Negro not only proves in every way his value as a workman, often most skilled, but above all, there is cultivated in his mind and heart that now too rare feeling of deep interest and loyalty to his employer. When the southern Negro works for a corporation, he calls it 'my company,' and never has a bomb been found in his hand nor has he been branded as an anarchist. Under fair treatment his loyalty becomes deep and unchanging, and the sower of the seeds of discord finds little response to his beguiling or impassioned stories of greener fields to be bad for the asking or taking. "A few years ago in his summer home in the East there passed away an eminent captain of industry who had spent forty years in the South building up a great commercial organization and community. Of master mind, with heart of a child, he had met and conquered many problems, all the while dealing with employees, both white and colored, so justly as to win their unfailing loyalty and even love. "When the news of his death was flashed back to that southern community deep sorrow prevailed, but it remained for one old colored man, who had grown gray in the service of that organization, to take a part of his savings, board a train, and make the thousand-mile journey to be present when his friend was returned to earth. As the cortege was preparing to move this old Negro mounted the funeral car, completed the journey, and remained with the family to the end to drop a last tear. This is but typical of the response of the southern Negro to the 'helping hand.' "In advance of the Negro's industrial progress has gone very naturally his moral and educational development, and the eagerness with which many are seizing every advantage offered by their institutions plainly foreshadows a still more wonderful development in all those attributes which go to make up citizens of whom we will have no reason to feel ashamed. "In the light of these conditions is there not good reason, then, to consider this southern Negro as one of the South's greatest industrial assets, and does it not behove southern industry to deal with him so fairly, so honestly, so uprightly as to maintain unimpaired that loyalty and strong feeling of common interest found in the heart of this plain, straightforward workingman." While the present army law is by far the best congress ever gave the country in time of peace, it has giarring defects, one of which is found in the fact no provision was made for increasing the number of colored regiments in either the regular or militia forces. There is not a single rational excuse for the omission. There are a score of excellent reasons why such a provision should have been added. Southern statesmen, so-called, in congress, shook their heads and said The communication of Charles N. Swift in the Times has attracted my attention, and just a word, if I may, to indorse his every word concerning the admission of a colored regiment into the New York National Guard. After their record in the Civil war, especially with 90.337 colored soldiers therein, why can there be any doubt about them? As an officer of both white and colored regiments, wounded twice in different engagements in the last-mentioned service, and having had some part in the organization of the Corps d'Afrique in Louisiana under General Banks in 1844, I have wondered why there were none in the state service. The Eighty-first U. S. C. T. in Louisiana, commanded by Col. Charles B. Guskill, now of Niagara Falls, caught any regiment, white or black, in the Gulf department to make as good a showing in regimental or company drill, but none accepted the challenge of the Eighty-first--George B.

Cotton is becoming so scarce in Europe that cellulose from wood fiber is being used as a substitute in surgical dressings.

In some parts of Spanish Guinea the rats are so numerous and destructive that a cat is worth as much as a sheep.

Japan has prohibited the manufacture and sale of food and beverages containing wood alcohol and the sale of any article of which it forms a part unless so stated on the label. it would not do—the Southern people would not stand for an increase of "Nigger" soldiers, and there were enough of the old style of congressmen from the North—the "doughface" species—to prevent the addition of a clause to the bill for a considerable number of colored regiments and batteries. It was a mistake which the next congress should rectify without delay. Colored volunteers in the Civil war were exceptionally brave soldiers. They were often severely tested. The South began to recruit for colored regiments in 1865, and General Lee declared that one of the Confederacy's most serious mistakes was made by not enlisting negroes for their army early in the war. Several regiments of colored men were on duty in the Confederate army the last few months of the war. For nearly fifty years there have been four colored regiments in the United States army—two of cavalry, the Ninth and Tenth, and two of infantry, the Twenty-fourth and the Twenty-fifth. No troops in the army were in more battles, or acquitted themselves more creditably in the Spanish-American and Philippine wars than the four colored regiments. The colored man likes the service. He takes pride in it. He quickly conforms to the rules and regulations. He is as neat in person, uniform, equipment, as the white man. He almost never deserts. There often is much difficulty in keeping white regiments recruited up to the proper number. There never is a lack of recruits for the colored commands. There are no more obedient or better disciplined soldiers. White officers of the South like to be assigned to the colored regiments. They and their soldiers understand each other perfectly and get along harmoniously. There should be ten regiments of colored men in the regular army instead of four, and many regiments of them in the militia instead of the three or four.—Chicago Herald. Dr. Eben S. Johnson of Sloux City, Ia., was elected a missionary bishop at the Methodist convention held at Saratoga Springs, and will be assigned to Africa. Dr. Alexander P.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 15, 1916 TIME TO GO SLOW ADVANTAGES OF SHORT SKIRT LIVING ROOM MADE BRIGHT BARGAINS AT THIS SEASON ARE NOT ALWAYS BARGAINS. Careful Thought Before Selection Is Always Advisable—Fashions Change So Quickly That Hasty Purchases May Be Money Ill Spent.

There is no reliable and authentic forecast as to what the October fash- lons will be, and no one except the commercialists care much about it. The majority of women are still struggling to complete a wardrobe for hot weather, or they are entirely ap- pathetic until the first frost awakens their curiosity and interest. There are three months ahead of us in which the thinnest of clothes are acceptable, and, possibly, one can follow one's fancy anywhere in arranging a wardrobe that is intended purely for the immediate present. A word of advice, however, should be given to that class of women who take advantage of sales in order to prepare themselves for the future. This class grows larger and larger So Manifest That Those Who First Frowned on them Have Been Brought to Admire. Short dresses are becoming more popular every day. Those who first frowned on them now admire them and say that they are not only sensible but becoming as well as economical. With a short dress a woman has some liberty. She has her hands for free use. She may look round about her without the fear that while she is doing it somebody will put a foot through her two-dollar-a-yard lace and tramp off a couple of yards of it. She may get out of a street car without looking back to see if she is clear behind and safe from being dragged along and perhaps malmed for life. She can defy rain and mud. She doesn't have to go round a wisp of straw lest she take it up on her fringe. She can cross a street without stepping on her dress and falling down in the mud for the nearest policeman to pick her up and all the boys to laugh at and watch to see her do it next time. If she has a pretty foot she can show it, and if she has a homely foot everybody knew it before, so there will be nothing lost there. The reign of the feather bon has begun again in real earnest. This year they are prettier and finer than ever. Many appear to be made of exceptionally fine feathers, loosely and artistically curled, and in softer and more delicate colorings than of yore. A dark smoky gray and a very soft amethyst are among the most alluring of those, and mixtures of color are happily absent this year, for plain colors are generally more becoming so near the face than the mottled effects. The newest neck ruffles are neither long nor short, but just a happy me- Somberness Should Have No Part in Apartment Designed for Family Gatherings. We spent weeks and weeks after we had got our new house on paper in planning the color scheme and the wall decorations, and in deciding just how we could make our old furniture fit into its new environment. We had started out ten years before with mission furniture—it is so satisfactory in a living room when there are growing children—and so we shut our eyes to the delights of the colonial mahogany and white paint, and built our room around the old things. We had the woodwork stained dark brown and a brown paper with a lighter brown figure on it put on the walls. The face curtains were cream scrim and the overhangings were brown casement cloth. There were three windows at each end of the room, and a French window opened on the porch at each side of the fireplace. So the room was very increased through the persuasiveness of those who have bargains to offer. and the persuasiveness of those who have bargains to offer. Next week, clothes will probably be at their minimum prices for the season. In the shop, and at the dress-making places, clothes will be offered at what is called "below cost." At these sales a wholesale clearance of everything is made by the commercialists, as they do not care to carry stock any longer through the season, and because the prices are tempting and the clothes suit the fashions of the hour, there are hundreds of women who take advantage of these bargains and buy costumes that they think will give them good service when the first comes. The process of buying good clothes at reduced rates at this season is one that appeals to the economist, and on the surface it seems an efficient way to dispose of money, but in truth, it is one of the most hazardous experiments. It is one of those instances in which a majority does what only a small minority is capable of doing. A woman who does not keep herself well advised concerning the changes in clothes runs every chance of putting into her wardrobe that which should never be taken out. The latest thing in June is apt to be the oldest thing in October. The cloth suit that looks admirable in the shop and which is guaranteed by the persuasive seller as France's latest production may not give service more than three times during the hot weather, and, when one gleefully takes it from the closet in October with that virtuous feeling of foreheadness, it will present such a pittable contrast to the new clothes that it can never be worn.

Sometimes is it just the small touch that is different which will lift the embroidered frock or jumper suit out of the ordinary class. It is well to keep one's eyes open for just such details and then make good use of them on the frock or jumper in the sewing bag. A little girl's dress made in a long-waisted style has a peplum with scalloped outline put on at the long wrist. The peplum falls downward at the sides, but at the front and back it is held upward in bib fashion, after being split and buttonholeed, and the ribbon sash passes through these two tabs. Crocheted buttons hold the front and back sections in place. A little boy's suit of fine pique has collar and cuffs of rose-colored linen. A dainty edge of pink and white cotton is crocheted on these. Small pockets of the rose linen are applied to the cuffs and are topped with the colored crochet. dum, the ends coming about half way down to the waist and culminating in thick choux of satin ribbon exactly matching the ruffle. LONDON LONDON & LONDON Dame Fashion goes to the ends of the world to procure something new and novel for our girls to sport, and the matador of the Spanish bull ring has furnished her with an idea for displaying the sailor straw in another mode. The hat is a smart gray sailor and is trimmed with fluted grograin ribbon in a fashion modeled somewhat after the idol of the bull ring. The broad net ruff and enormous bowed ribbon are recent introductions and there is great promise of their being worn extensively this summer. light, but somehow, when we got this far, we were disappointed—it wasn't the cheerful, cozy room we had planned. After studying the problem for some time we decided that it was too heavy looking, and so much brown was monotonous. It lacked living color. We wished we had chosen a gay chinz for hangings instead of the plain brown. But as we hadn't thought of it till too late, we set about bringing the room to life with the remaining furnishings. We bought two wide wicker chairs and cushioned them with cretonne in which there were old blues, gold and orange, with touches of black and white. We bought a tall wicker floor lamp—there is nothing that softens a room like wicker—and I put a lining of the cretonne under the shade. I made orange shades for the side fixtures and bought two or three pieces of the bright painted tin that is in vogue just now, one a gorgeous yellow watering not for the flower stand. Why Some Girls Receive More Attention Than Others BY LAURA JEAN LIBBEY The cruel and the bitter word That wounded as it fell, The chilling want of sympathy We feel but never tell, The hard repulse that chills the heart Whose hopes were bounding high. Are an unfading record kept— These things can never die. Many an attractive girl has secretly wondered how it was that she, who was considered good company, stylish and pleasing, did not receive as much attention from the young men as did plainer girls who could not have carried on an interesting conversation for any length of time to save their lives. MARY According to the masculine view, beauty in woman does not always count. If she is insplint, vain or inclined to be satirical, her good looks go for naught! Few men appreciate the girl who knows too much, or thinks she does, or the girl decked out in too much finery, like the wax dummy fixed up for show in the drygoods store window. The poor young man knows that he could not finance extravagance in a wife, and he gives the over-dressed girl a letting alone. The young man of means who can have everything he Former Yankee Star May Be Temperamental, But Red Pilot Doesn't Care, for He's Making Good. When "Charley" Herzog signed "Hal" Chase for the Reds many persons who professed to know asserted the one-time Yankee star was too temperamental to play for the high-stru J "Hal" Chase. Marylander, and that he would disrupt the harmony which then obtained among the Herzogovlnns. But the Redland chief, eager to win a pennant for the etiadel beyond the Rife for the first time in the history of the Nazi, didn't did not hesitate. He knew that "Hal" wasn't through as a major leaguer. To be sure, Chase hadn't shown his old form while pasting for the Buffeds, but Herzog decided to take a chance on him, and now he's envied by every other manager in the majors. "Hal" Chase has come back. He has bolstered up the Red Clan where it was weakest—in the outfield. He is a tower on strength to the offense as well, and if the Reds succeed in finishing well up, it is safe to say Chase will have figured prominently in the achievement," Herzog stated emphatically. "Why, of course, 'Hal' and I hit it off well together. I don't find anything unusual in playing on the same team with 'Hal'. I know he's a brilliant ball player, and that he's perfectly human. He may be temperamental, but so am I. "I think 'Hal' Chase is the best first baseman in the game today. We are using him in the outfield because Mollwitz' hitting is too valuable an asset to have title, and 'Hal' is a corking outfielders. Chase is playing the game all the time and for all he's worth, and when a man does that he won't have much chance to go wrong with me." Bigger Profits for Farmer. Birds of a feather make bigger profits for the farmer. Some Things That Are New. To facilitate night photography a flashlight gun has been invented that operates a camera shutter at the instant the light is at its brightest. Polarizing apparatus has been invented in Germany for examining glass intended for scientific purposes for defects due to improper or irregular cooling. The principle of the spring shade roller has been employed in a device that almost automatically keeps men's idle neckles clean and smooth. Most of the carpets made in India are woven by boys, who are told by men watching them how many knots of each color to tie to the warp, a single row at a time. Individual fenders for each front wheel of a motorbus, so mounted as to always be in position for use, have been invented by a resident of London. Sleeping car berths have been invented with end sections that can be lifted to give occupants room enough to stand erect when undressing or dressing. SMILES wishes appreciates, above all else, simple attire on a girl, absence of gwaws and cheap jewelry. The girl can talk brilliantly and well upon any subject he might introduce, is so well informed generally that he imagines she could teach him lessons in heart woodings instead of learning the wonderful story from his lips. Some other girl might not be nearly so pretty, but her innocence and modesty make up for the absence of dimples and curls. A man likes to feel in his heart that his wisdom in all things worldly is far superior to that of the woman he would lead to the altar. The girl who is plain and poor usually makes up for it in being exceedingly clever. A young man never discovers how much she really knows. She holds back her best card by keeping that entirely to herself. A man destires to be looked up to by his sweetheart instead of being looked down upon. It is more than apt to be a bright girl's own fault if her less-attractive sisters secure more attention from desirable young men than she does. She would do well to study the situation from every viewpoint, noting the true reason as to why some other girls are more popular than she and pattern after their methods. Holding out stubbornly against such a method only hurts herself. If a very quiet, retiring girl seems to be most admired, she should not be so voluble of tongue, but allow the young man in whose company she is to exert himself to do the talking and entertaining. If he has done all the talking, he has POULTRY POINTERS Feeding pens for the little chicks will be necessary in order to prevent injury to them by the older fowls. You can tell a laying hen as far as you can see her. Her comb is always bright and healthy looking. If you do not intend to use hens for hatching, break them up at once and get them to laying again. When the hens are laying regularly more food should be supplied and with more food comes the necessity of more exercise. When chicks or hens are confined in small yards, it is best to feed little and often in order to keep the birds busy and contented. Never grease the hen that is seting, as grease getting on the shells of the eggs will close the pores and smother the chickens. Poultry yards should have shade for chickens during the summer. If your hens do not have shade, plant trees for this purpose. Make it a point to keep the chicks busy scratching. Scatter fine grains in the litter, and by scratching it out they will get the exercise necessary to good health. Don't relax feeding the young chicks during the hot summer months, because you think there is plenty of grass and bugs for them. They need more than that. Guard against the formation of egg-eating habits by giving the fowl plenty of lime, oyster shells, bone or similar substances to insure a firm shell upon the eggs. First Coed—Almee is a freak.

"I don't pretend to," replied the serene citizen. "I'm simply trying to prolong the argument in the hope of obtaining enlightenment." He Didn't Land the Job. Having advertised for a chauffeur, the multimillionaire sought to test the honesty of an applicant. "Suppose," said the man of millions, "you were to find a pocketbook in the machine containing $100,000—what would you do about it?" "I wouldn't do a blamed thing," replied the applicant, "but live on my income for the rest of my natural life." No Longer Convincing "Of course, you believe that great oaks from little acorns grow?" "Oh, yes," replied the cautious investor, "but only in a literal sense. I've seen that statement used so often in literature sent out by wfly promoters that as a metaphor it has entirely lost its punch with me."

He leaves her under the impression that he has been extremely well entertained. She has simply paid keen attention and looked wise and interested. That's the kind of girl nine out of a dozen will choose for a wife. Girls should use diplomacy and learn to curb their faults when they observe less attractive girls passing them by on the road to popularity or matrimony.

Grate the rind from a small lemon and add it to one tablespoonful of the juice. Mix together one pint of sifted flour (two cupfuls, one-quarter of a teaspoonful of salt, and one teaspoonful of baking powder). Separate the whites from the yolks of six eggs, dropping the yolks into the mixing bowl. Into a saucepan put one cupful and a half of granulated sugar and four tablespoonfuls of boiling water, place over the fire and stir until the sugar is dissolved, then boil for one minute. Beat the yolks until thick and slowly pour them the hot sauce, beating fast, as one does in making frosting, beat until the mixture is cold and very thick and spongy. Cool it by standing the bowl in ice water. Add a part of the flour mixture then the lemon, half of the whites which have been whipped dry and the remainder of the flour and the whites. Mix all together lightly as possible and bake in a shallow pan in a moderate oven. Rice Cakes. Beat four yolks of eggs until light add a cupful of milk, one half teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of freshly-boiled rice, one tablespoonful of butter, one teaspoonful of sugar and sufficient flour to make a stiff drop batter. Lastly stir in two teaspoonfuls of baking powder and drop by spoonfuls into a kettle of hot fat. Cook until a golden brown, drain on paper and serve at once with the following sauce: Simmer together one cupful of water and a third of a cupful of sugar, add a tablespoonful of cornstarch and a pinch of salt, mixed in cold water, then add to the hot sip, cook until well done. Add one tablespoonful each of citron, raisins and cleaned currants and steam them until well softened, then add to the sauce and flavor with ten drops of almond extract. Spiced Salmon. Turn out a can of salmon and remove the skin and bones, break into good-sized flakes and put into a crock. Strain the liquid from the fish into a saucepan, add an equal amount of water and twice as much vinegar, a dozen cloves, half a teaspoonful of pepper corn, one-half of a teaspoonful of salt and a half a blade of mace. Bring to the boiling point and pour over the fish. Cover closely and let stand 24 hours before using. And the Winds Brew. "Yes," said the man from Texas, "ours is a wonderful country.
