CHRISTMAS CITY TO WILBER FORCE I UNIVERSITY Wilberforce, OI—President W. S. Scarborough has just received word of the gift, to the University of two lots in Houston, Texas, valued at $400 each. A deed of the transfer accompanied the notification. The donor is Rev. Today Perry of St. Louis, M.A., graduate of the University, class 1890. He sends it as a Christmas gift to his alma mater, and as a birthday present. The University's splendid showing in the new National Army is indicated in the following, and President W. PRESIDENT W. S. SCARBOROUGH S. Scarborough has every reason to feel proud of it. Twenty Wilberforce students will enter the third D. S. officers' training camp at P. Riley, Kan. The following list of Wilberforce University graduates, together with undergraduate list not yet complete, commissioned officers, officers at Fort Des Moines, Iowa, all are in the Officers' Reserve Corps except where otherwise stated.

Our New Suffragan Bishop of the Protestant Episcopal Church for its Southwestern (U. S.) Province Bishop Gallor appointed the Rev. Denby as archdeacon of the Colored work in 1912. He continued as the rector of Emmanuel church 'at the same time for four years'. As a missionary priest and rector, he has been a success and his work at Mason, Key West, Memphis, and that he is now a missionary with Hoffman-St. Mary's Industrial Institute, will stand as a monument to his credit. He is loved not only by Colored churchmen, but by hundreds among the Christian denominations. For several years he was the head of the Colored Episcopal Charities of Memphis; organized there, the local Sociological Congress among our people. He is a high mason and a missionary. He is the missionaries of Ph. Fosterley. The missionaries of Ph. Fosterley. Denby all love him and have every confidence in him. One priest wrote, as he was leaving the Archdeaconry to take up work elsewhere: "I have worked under two Archdeacons, but you are the only one that the position does not turn your head; you are always the same, simply Denby; ever ready to help your men and to be one with them in their work. I say God bless you. A bishop-deacon, Denby, Nettle Ricks, Sept. 17th, 1922, daughter of the late Benjamin and Susan, Ricks of the cland. O., a charming woman and a great helpmate.

JOHNSON November 30, 1917. important gathering of its kind that has yet been held. Ron, Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette. Cleveland, O. My Dear Sir: The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is planning to hold a Mid-Winter Conference in New York City which will be 'national' in its scope. At this Conference it is proposed to the National Association from all the National Association from all the country and distinguished men and women of both races. It is the intention to make this Conference the most A DESERVED TRIBUTE As our readers and many others well know the Gazette has always placed race interests above personal ideal party interests, and has remained a "Republican" in politics thrust its almost thirty-five years of life because it subscribes to the original principles of the party, though at times refusing to support and even opposing some of the party nominees, and thus true to our people or because it believed their unit candidates. This same independence in all matters of importance, has always made it easy and proper for us to recognize, and publicly too, the race's real friends of other races and parties, and as far as we were able to do so, to give them the credit they were clearly entitled to at the hands of our people, and surprised to learn that a democratic attorney general of Ohio, without the "flourish of a single trumpet," had appointed a member of the office—a position filled for the first time by an Afro-American. /Lator on, when the latter got into serious trouble, the attorney general "stood by" him until he had proven his innocence of the charges preferred against him. The attorney general, that time on the part of the attorney general would in all probability have caused the downfall of a promising young attorney of the race, a resident of Columbus at the time but now a lieutenant or captain in the new National Army by grace of the Officers' Training School, conducted a few months ago at Ft. Dodge, Des Moines, Iowa. When this Ohio democrat was re-elected as attorney general, he appointed his Afro-American "special assistant," frankly praising him for good work done in and out of the courts of Columbus and elsewhere in the state/ A few weeks ago, with Dr. Leroy N. Bundy's faithful father and wife, and others, we were fighting his extradition to Eust St. Louis; III, finally succeeding in "holding it up"/until the mob spirit quieted down to the point that notorious town without being lynch-murdered. When the probability of securing even this concession seemed least and the outlook darkest, into the fight was drawn this same democratic friend and former Ohio attorney general, who entered with an enthusiasm, characteristic of his and our race when thoroughly interested and aroused; promptly turned the title in our hands with an eloquent and soaring voice, all of the legal technicals involved in the Bundy extradition case that "won the day," and capped it all with a refusal to take a cent for his extraordinary and invaluable services, again showing in a quiet but forceful way real, practical friendship for the race that must not be forgotten. The Bundy case is not and never has been anything else so sound one, and our democratic friend was quick to see this and give us more evidence of his earnest desire to do all in his power to help a struggling people, unfairly handicapped in hundreds of ways by the dominant race of this country. Recently he delivered an address to our people of Columbus, saying among other things: "I home to see the day that I was arrested and arrested on the faculty of the Ohio State University," and what is more, this man really meant what he said. Continuing he also said: IN UNION WITH IS LOVE SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS MES W. JOHNSON important gathering of its kind that has yet been held I am enclosing you a circular which outlines the plan of the Conference. At the same time the Association extends to you an urgent invitation to attend and take an active part in the deliberations of this gathering. Will you be kind enough to affy me at your earliest convenience if it will be possible for you to be present? Your very truly, JAMES W. JOHNSON, Acting Secretary, P. S.—I hope you may find it possible to attend. J. W. J. think they have a higher right than their fellow-men, it is a belief in sort of thing that made the kaiser bring on the present-world conflict. Since the days of the "Ku Klux Klan" and the "Red Shirt Brigades," the south has not only attempted to pass laws contradictory to the constitution but in effect has succeeded. In the south our people have all the liabilities deprived of its greater rights. There democracy, or rather the democratic party, "reigns supreme," enacting disfranchisement, "jim crow," railway, street car, and segregation "laws," condoning if not encouraging lynchmurder and all forms of mob violence, and fearing the other ways, to well known to mention. Our good friend, the former attorney general of Ohio, the a member of that party, knows this and yet dares to condemn it publicly in spite of the fact that he is and has been for some years a leader of the democratic party of Ohio in independence, and his most marked characteristic ever since his entrance into public life. Therefore, it need surprise no one in this state, where he is so well and favorably known, to learn that he has referred to the prejudiced southern "Shylock" as he did in that period of his life. To whom do we refer? Why to the HON. TIMOTHY S. HOGAN of Columbus, former attorney general of Ohio. HARRY C.-SMITH. BUNDY'S BOND FIXED AT $24,000 Boudman Must Qualify for $48,000—Appeal Is Filed for Other Defendants St. Louis, Mo.—Dr. Leroy. N. Bundy, who has been in the Belleville jail for several weeks, charged with murder in connection with the killing of Officers Coppedge and Wodley during July visits, has been released from jail on bob off. He can get a bond from who can qualify for the sum of $48,000. There is no doubt but the bond was set at this staggering figure simply to make it impossible for him to gain his freedom pending the trial. The bond is for two charges of murder at $10,000 each and an additional $2,000 for each of the two conspiracy charges, making the total of $4,000 for both charges returnable to the March term of the Monroe County, Ill. Circuit Court, to which Bundy has been given a change of venue. Through Judge Brown, of Chicago, one of the leading lawyers in the west, the transcript for an appeal in the case of the ten men convicted in the first trial has been filed. Hampton's New President New York—The appointment of Rev. James Gregg of Pittsfield, Mass. as principal of Hampton Institute, Va. to succeed the late Dr. H. B. Frissell, has been announced. Dr. Gregg is 92 and was born in Hartford, Conn. He was graduated from Harvard university and the Yale, Divinity school, and for the last five years has been pastor of the last Congregational church in Pittsfield. Alyce Marie Columbus, O.—Dr. and Mrs. Joseph L. Johnson, 652 E. Long St., this city, formally announce the birth, Nov. 30, of an eight and one-half pound daughter.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 29, 1917 We are in the hectic flush of the prosperity of war. Wise is the man who saves now and salts it down. Remember that the hectic years are in due course of time followed by the anemic years. The English family buys a sixteen ounce loaf of wheat bread for five cents. It is made of American wheat shipped by rail to an ocean port, then by ship to England. We leave it to the national and state administrations to explain why, in Ohio, a wheat state, we have to pay a larger sum and get a smaller leaf. Prof. "Alphabetical" DuBois' penchant for claiming credit, and usually all of it, too, for the N. A. A. C. P, has aroused Mrs. Ida B. Wells-Barnett's ire with the result that she belabors him thoroly in a column and a half article in the Boston Guardian of Dec. 22. The bundties to the Bundy-East St. Louis, Ill., case is the "bone of contention." Mrs. Barnett did good work for that phase of the case and DuBois does not seem to want her to have credit for the same. 'Twas ever thus. In pursuance to the camouflage that all politics is to be sidetracked until after the war, the executive committee of the Democratic National Committee has divided the country into a regional or zone system. There are eight zones. Ohio is in Zone No. Three, and its associate states are Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia. Meetings are being held in the various zones to prepare for the Congressional and Senatorial election of 1918. A special from Washington, D. C., to the Cincinnati Times-Star starts off: "In incompetent officials must be removed from office." The dispatch goes on to say that "Congress is surprised that conditions are as serious as those revealed to the Senate Military Affairs Committee by General Crozier without the knowledge of the nation. Senators were outspoken in their denunciation of the censorship which has kept conditions in the war department a secret." The censorship has worked as it was feared it would. In England and in France the governments give out all news except that which is vital to conceal from the enemy and this should be the rule in this country. Let the people know! SANFUGAID SOLDIERS HEALTH The people learned with concern that a number of deaths in the army cantonments increased during the week ending November 30. There were 164 deaths among the National Guardsmen as against 97 the previous week, and 79 among the drafted men as against 60 the preceding week. The deaths from pneumonia give special concern, as 88 deaths were from this cause. If delay in providing shelter and clothing, resulting in exposure, is a cause of this mortality, there should be an heroic effort to supply all deficiencies. With the vast resources of this country, and by giving the needs of the soldiers preference in every way, the men should not only not be unduly at the mercy of the elements, but should ever be thoroughly comfortable. Jerusalem has fallen! The Christmas day of 1917 is to see the "city of our solemnities" out of the hands of the infidel. It is certain that it will never again be permitted to go back into Turkish hands. The dream of the Jews is about to come true. They will no doubt again establish their nation in the land of Moses and David, and Israel will be restored to the world. Had America declared war against Turkey on the day that war was declared on Austria, sentimentally at least, we should have had a part in a victory which means that a new civilization is to have its existence in the valley of the Jordan and which will affect the future ages. Our voice at the council table of the nations when peace is to be declared would have been more potent had we acted in time. A belated declaration of war when the arms of Great Britain have taken Jerusalem, redeemed the Holy Land and probably encircled Constantinople, will hardly satisfy national pride nor appeal to the religious sentiment of the nation. PATRIOTISM VS. PARTISANSHIP Victor Heintz, Republican congressman from the Second Ohio district, being a captain in the Ohio National Guard, is serving in the army. Supposedly it was generally agreed in Congress, because of his patriotic action, that his seat would not be declared vacant by the House. In the recent municipal election a Cincinnati Democrat, named Baumgarten, surptitiously secured five votes, count them, five, and though no election was called, now claims election to Congress to represent in the Congress of the nation the Second Congressional district of Ohio. The Democratic members of the House Judiciary Committee have been gumshoeing in the matter, and as a corollary, South Trimble, of Kentucky, the Democratic clerk of the House, declares that if the bumptious Baumgarten "presents a certificate from the Secretary of State of Ohio stating that he is duly elected and qualified, I will send him upstairs to be sworn in." Senator Harding resents this partisan and unpatriotic stand and says: "I cannot imagine that a Congress committed to the war and supporting the administration without party lines, could for a moment contemplate such action as declaring vacant a seat which belongs to a man who has gone into the military service of the country." The motto of the Democratic party seems to be, not "politics as usual ties during the war." FOR WHITE DEMOCRACY ONLY? Some Strong and Timely Comment— Must Include Our People! From New York World To the Editor of the World: I have read and reread with the very greatest pleasure your truly inspired editorial of last Sunday entitled "Race Prejudice and the War", in which you hay bare the skeleton in our closet. This war is being fought "to make the world safe for democracy." Can it be possible that we are fighting to make the world safe for white democracy only? The American people are not hypocrites. If they can be made to think about it they will say, "All the people must be included, else our pretensions are sounding brass and tinkling cymbals." The colored people as a group are as loyal to the flag and to the ideals of democracy as any other group in our population. Colored men, as in all of our previous wars, are now training and sacrificing and fighting for American liberty and American ideals. It cannot be when this cruel war is over and when democracy is safe and American ideals are triumphant that our colored veterans will be discharged with "honorable mention" and relegated to the status they now occupy of social and economic pariads—outcasts, compelled to filch an existence on the outer edges of the great civilization they and their maimed and dead comrades fought to preserve. Your statement that if the war lasts a couple of years longer the white people will be compelled to do what they now do not want to do—viz., think about their unjust treatment of their colored brothers—seems to me prophetic. In conclusion allow me to suggest that you consider the advisability of throwing the great influence of the World into a movement to have the press cease calling attention to the race of a colored person when accused of committing a crime. Race prejudice comes from a perception of the difference in race. If the press should very generally call attention to the race of any of our different nationalities when individuals are accused of crime, it would not be long before that race so singled out would be quite as much disliked as the colored people now are. Undying fame awaits the white man or woman who will devote himself or herself to the cause of justice for all of our people regardless of Book Notice "What a Young (Man) Ought to Know."—(Rear Admiral Philip's Port- trait edition. By Syvans Stall. The Philadelphia, Pa. Price $3.00. The hearts of parents, wives and friends are naturally being directed to their soldier boy in camp or "Somewhere in France." They doubtless have heard of the report of Capt. E. B. Vedder, of the U. S. Medical Corps in War Department Bulletin No. 8, in which he uses this striking paragraph. "Our sick report has been a reproach in that we have more men on the sick list because of venereal diseases than any other army in the world. These anxious ones will enthuse us. We become this volume of St. Louis' which Bear-Admiral Philip deemed of such vital moment that he warmly recommended it to the sailor boys in his fleet. No one can read it without a knowledge of the awful penalties exacted by an unholy use of the sacred functions given him by his Maker. A copy bearing the portrait of gallant Rear-Admiral Philip on its outer cover, and his unseldom words of praise, should go to every one of our soldier and sailor boys. 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. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, DECEMBER, 29, 1917. Pierre Auguste Dauphin DOINGS OF THE RACE Mrs. Lloyd Wheeler, well known Chicagoan, died recently at Champaign, Ill. Body shipped to Chicago for burial. The Mid-Winter conference of the N. A. A. C. P. is being held in New York city, this week. It closes, tomorrow. Many prominent persons of both races are attending the meeting. Chicago's chief of police, Herman F. Schuettler, has appointed one captain, one lieutenant, six sergeants and fifty-five patrolmen (all colored) to duty on the police force of Chicago (as "Reserves") to help clean out crime in that city. Wincen Survey, who passed the civil service examination of the police department at Traction, N. J., has been appointed a member of the police force. This is the first time in the history of the city that an Afro-American has been placed on a salary basis and given full police power in that state. Emilio de Gorgorza, the great baritone, sang at Acadium Hall, New York City, recently. His program included many of the great composers. The New York World says: "But the audience liked best the five songs forming the third and last group, but one, especially J. Rosamond Johnson's "Told My Love to the Roses," which Mr. de Gorgorza was obliged to repeat. The song which like those surrounding him was in English, the singer excelled in the variety of his tone color and in genuinely expressed feeling. The closing phrase, with its beautifully sung pianissimo high note, was beyond reproach." However technically justifiable the hanging of thirteen Negro soldiers in Houston for the part they took in a recent riot, it is not calculated to stimulate the patriotism of some 10,000,000 Afro-Americans. It is the belief of Negroes generally that they are unfairly and illegally discriminated against. They feel that usually back of an outbreak is a long series of petty outrages. That there is basis for this conviction few candid persons will deny. The instances of white men hanged for rioting against Negroes are rare. The Negro is not averse to the reign of justice, but he is of the opinion that its decrees should be evenly administered. It is greatly to be feared that this country is making future trouble for itself by having one sort of law for the white man and quite a different and more drastic one for the black man—N. Y. Daily Globe. "HATS OFF! The Flag Goes By," a Patriotic March Song That Leads Them All The editor of The Gazette has just received a copy of this new and exceptionally fine musical production, the work of Richard Berry Lynch, son of our long-time and highly esteemed friends, Mr. and Mrs. R. D. Lynch of Youngstown, O. It has the "snap" and "go" is pretty and "tuneful" requisites absolutely necessary to make such a production "take" and sell, especially in these stirring times of many somewhat similar musical productions but lacking these essentials as a rule. Everybody, among our people, who has ever visited Youngstown for any length of time, even for but a few days, in the last twenty-five years, has met "Dick" Lynch, the author's father, an enrolling clerk of the Ohio Senate, years ago, and generally acknowledged to be one of the very best to ever fill that important position. He is possibly the most popular and best known member of the race Youngstown has claimed in a quarter of a century. Genial, clever, capable in an exceptional degree and an "till around good fellow," and a gentleman, too, all the better. And he Mammy Lynch, since a girl in emotionally fine pianist and musician, is a woman of intelligence whom one has only to meet once to be thoroughly impressed most favorably and to be numbered among her hosts of warm admirers. It will require no stretch of imagination for any one who reads this to understand the kind of parents Richard Berry Lynch, the author of "Hats Off! The Flag Goes By," has and why the young man has been able to produce a composition that surpasses anything of the kind to come to our notice during the past few years of World War and the greatly increased patriotism it has aroused within the year in this country. Kaiser's Music Store, The Arcade, Cleveland, O., has it on sale and The Gazette advises every one of its readers to purchase at least one copy while they can. You will certainly be more than pleased with the sterling patriotic murch-song. Price, fifty cents. "Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and thatter it and accept it as a law of nature."—John Stuart Mill. --- "I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenance of relatives than the applause of friends."—Charles Summer. HOT WATER AS A REST CURE Four Hours in Bath Good as Eight in Bed. Sleeping in a bath tub full of water kept at blood temperature is claimed by some physicians to give the re- quired amount of rest in half the time that sleeping in bed requires. In other words, four hours' sleep in a bath tub filled with water at the proper temperature—and always maintained at that temperature—will result in the exact amount of restfulness that eight hours in bed will give. The explanation is that warm water completely relaxes the nerves, which ordinary sleep does not necessarily do. The most difficult part of the treatment is in maintaining the water at a constant temperature. For the purpose of accomplishing this result, a middle-western manufacturer has recently brought out on the market a thermostatic water control apparatus. In practice, the patient climbs into a bathtub filled with water, his head protruding thru a hole in a rubber blanket which is strapped around the edges of the tub. Water constantly flows in at one end of the tub, and out at the other. Manifold Uses of Electricity. Hardly as old as a grown man, the electrical industry—including railways, telephones and telegrams—has already invested $8,125,000,000 in the business of America. Its utility companies alone pay Under Sam $200,000,000 every year for taxes—seven out of every ten use it in some form every day. It is unmistakably the most vital factor today in America's prosperity. Its resources are boundless. As Secretary of the Interior Lane expresses it, there is enough hydroelectric energy running to waste to equal the daily labor of 1,800,000,000 men or 30 times our adult population. This strange" power, only recently harnessed, that has actually revolutionized life and promises more radical reformation in the future—what is it? Mysterious, yet dependable; powerful enough to drive ponderous machinery, yet gentle enough to warm the baby's bottle; almost omnipotent, yet the best trained of servants; omnipresent, yet invisible—what a paradox is this innermate yet Living thing we call Electricity for lack of a better name! Many people living to-day remember those practical electricless days when electricity was used only for a few telegraph lines, and knowledge of its action and of its laws was exceedingly primitive. Today Berlin radios. New Jersey. Every part of the earth and ocean is now within the \wireless telegraph range. The next logical step was the wireless 'phone. It is there already. Washington recently talked to Paris and a new days later to Honolulu—5,000 miles away. Voices are distinctly heard over this vast span of air. These illustrations are typical of electrical progress in every phase of life today. One statistician now figures 608 practical uses of $^8$ electricity; another finds 70 uses of electricity on an automobile. In the home, upon the form, in the factory—everywhere, the world is fast becoming electrified. Of the 20,500,000 homes in the United States one-fourth are already lighted by electricity. At the present rate of transfusion from steam to electric drive, we are told that three-fourth of all America's industry will be electrified inside 2 five years! - From Leslie's. Passing of Cigar Store Indians. Whether are they gone, the cigar store Indians? History tells us that it was a pesky redskin who first slipped a sample package of Pocohontas Mixture to Capt. John Smith. Soon, thanks to Sir Walter Raleigh, the world's first tobacco press agent, all the English colonists and a lot of the folks at home were cultivating Jamaican pipes or learning to roll their own. And succeeding generations, anxious to give the red man his due, set up his wooden image before the door of every tobacco shop. Stiff and proud stood old Chief Colorado Maduro, in one hand a bundle of wooden cigars, grasping tightly, in the other a wooden tomahawk. He was an amending source of inspiration and pleasure to all small boys, their glass of fashion and mold of form. A romantic figure; too constant reminder of the poetry of tobacco smoke. Now they are gone, these silent braves, gone on perhaps along with the price of tobacco. In their place the boys of today are being brought up on pictures of shiny gentlemen in dress suits who live in palatial clubs and roll cigarettes from 5-cent packets of "smoking mixtures." Forgotten is the full flavored romance of tobacco smoke. Makes X-Ray Better. The X-ray has become indispensable to the modern surgeon, and improvements are always being made upon it. A recent one is a device which, after revealing the location of an injury or diseased spot, enables the surgeon to keep it in sight as he operates. A frame work going around the surgeon's head is fitted with a duroscope — an instrument by means of which objects revealed by the X-rays are made visible to the human eye. The patient is placed on a special operating table with the X-ray turned on and the surgeon can work easily, since he sees what is before him continually instead of having to work groping from the remembrance of what was revealed in the X-ray photograph. Paterson woman with a paint brush made all her green scans-spotted, and in that way caught the thief who had been stealing them. Good Substitute.

EMPLOYS MICE TO WEAVE THREAD RODENTS EARN SIX SHILLINGS APIECE A YEAR Man has harnessed waterfalls, the tides and the winds, he has disciplined the horse, the ox and the elephant, but now he has gone a step farther, he is making the mice do his work for him. Aware that stores of profitable animal energy are going to waste, David Hutton, a Scotchman, taught mice to weave thread. The experiment not only has proved practicable, but highly profitable. Mr. Hutton's own account of his experiment follows: "I had occasion to be at Perth. While inspecting the toys and trinicis that were manufactured there; my attention was attracted by a little toy house with a wheel in the gable that was running rapidly around, impelled by the activity of a common mouse. For one shilling I purchased the house, the mouse and the wheel. But how to apply half-ounce power (which is the weight of a mouse) to a useful purchase was the difficulty. At length the manufacture of a sewing thread seemed the most profitable." Mr. Hutton found that an ordinary mouse would run on the average ten and one-half miles a day; he had one mouse that ran the remarkable distance of eighteen miles in that time. He found that a half-penny's worth of oatmeal was sufficient for thirty-five days' food for one mouse, which during that time run 362 miles. Mr. Hutton kept two mice constantly engaged in the making of sewing thread for more than a year. This thread mill was so constructed that the mouse was able to twist, and rest from 100 to 129 threads a day. To perform this task it had to run ten and one-half miles, which it did with ease other day. According to Mr. Hutton, one of his mice, on the half-penny's worth of oatmeal, which lasted for five weeks, made 3,350 threads, 25 inches long. Since a penny was paid to women for every bank made in the ordinary way, the mouse at that-rate earned 9 pence every six weeks. After deducting the cost of food and machinery, there was . . . clear yearly profit from each mouse of over six shillings. Measuring the Human Voice Measuring the Human Voice. The ordinary sewing room tapeline promises to bring about a small revolution in the musical world as the result of the discoveries made by a Minnesota musician, who believes he has found an infallible means of determining the true qualities and possibilities of the human voice. By measuring the resonating cahities of the singer or would-be singer, he has been able to answer with precision many of the questions which perplex the singer. Four years have been spent in working out the theory that the human voice can be measured and properly catalogued as to its possibilities for future service. In that length of time the voices of 12,000 singers have been measured, many of them members of the prominent grand opera companies of New York and Caliagoe, Exterior measurements of the resonating cavities of the head will give a true index of the kind and quality of the voice possessed by the subject, it is claimed. By this means it can be determined whether the voice has been developed or trained to its proper range, and whether years of study and work are to be crowned with success or failure. In many of the tests it was found that persons who had no idea of being singers had voices of unusual range and power. Three such discoveries were made among 100 persons tested in Minneapolis. The lung capacity of the individual has little to do with the power and range of the voice, as one frequently hears a deep bass voice from an undersized man, while a large man will be the possessor of a high tenor voice. The deceptive qualities of the human voice are being gaged so accurately by the use of the tapeline that it is possible to tell whether the individual has a tenor, contralto, basso or baritone voice without hearing the sound of the voice. If a person has been overtrained, the tapeline will make the secret known long before it is a parent in the singer's voice. Many good voices have been ruined by lack of ability to judge their proper qualities and train them in the proper manner. Many weeks have been devoted to research work in the skull room of the Museum of Natural History in New York City, the investigations being later extended to thousands of New Yorkers. The voices of 1000 boys and 200 girls in the public schools were measured by the timeline, with results equally as accurate. These experiments furnished proof that 57 per cent of the women of America have soprano voices, and 43 per cent contralto voices. Among the men, baritone voices are more common, only 43 per cent have tenor voices. Nothing pleases a fat woman more than to have some man call her his little girl. Successful Appeal. Judge—"Was that young Mr. Smith I saw leaving the house as I entered?" Daughter—"Yes, papa." Judge—"And didn't I prohibit him coming here any more?" Daughter—"Yes, papa, but he appealed to a higher court, and manure has removed the injunction." HATS "Empies?" Can Be "Knocked Down," Thus Saving Space. A collapsible steel barrel is the latest device of a "Pennsylvania man." The article in question is compiling of a center, two adjoining sections and two end caps. The whole fits together with over-lapping rims, and, when set up, is held tight by a steel cordage running from end to end. If it is desirous to ship back empties, the barrels may be knocked down, and valuable space saved by telescopes. The Nerves of the Sky-Scraper. The Nerves of the Sky-Scraper. The nerves of the sky-scraper are the telephone wires, of course. And, inasmuch as progress in evolution is measured by complex nervous development, it is natural that New York's Down-Town, where Business, the highest form of social biology, has attained its fullest development, should be an enormous spider's web of telephone wires. The per capita consumption of telephone wire in New York is six times as much as in London. That represents the relative nervous intensity of business in New York and in London. Some such excess of wiring I suspect in the sky-scrapers of Down-Town. There are hundreds and thousands of rooms, and in every room one or more men with their mouths and ears at the telephone. It is all cellular partitions and wire ganglion reaching out to Chicago, perhaps, or San Francisco; wires to the Stock Exchange around the corner, wires to the assistant in the adjoining room, wires to the heart of the detainable in-which Business is being dictated and from which Business will travel to the ear of the stenographer who will transfer it to paper. Our ghostly tourist will conclude that modern Business is a matter of conversation. Down-Town, inside of its tens of thousands of sky-scraper cells, is thus terribly busy—about what? So far as the eye can see, about nothing in particular. A man with a telephone at his elbow, a flat-topped desk with a metal basket holding a dozen letters perhaps, a photograph of the man's wife in a silver frame at one end of the desk, and that's all. But if the cell is a large one, sometimes reaching the dimensions of an entire floor in a sky-scraper block, the desks, telephones, metal baskets, and photographs are indemnify multiplied. The substantialities of Business are not there—the steel, wheat, cotton, bulldon, the beams, casks, boxes, and bales which you recall being hauled toward quaint little wharves on toy trucks driven by men in jumpers and shovel-hats in the pictures in your school geography labed Commerce. By externals there is no way of telling whether the man at the desk is engaged in colling stocks and bonds, or woolen remnants, or railway accessories, or trusts and mergers, or theater tickets. There is beckoning the concrete symbolism of the old counting-rooms—the heavy ledgers, whose bulk suggested the raw materials of traffic, the clerks on their high stools, the bushe of orders given and taken. The heavy ledgers have been replaced by filing-cabinets, whose purpose seems as much decorative as useful. Your business office might as well be the catalogue room of a college library—Harper's Magazine. Fitting the Man to the Job. Fitting the Man to the Job. The largest industrial plants, in all parts of the country, are now establishing employment departments. In the old days, the foreman had the privilege of "hiring and bring." It was a prerogative which he jealously guarded. However, he solemnly performed his duty with much skill or intelligence. He was notoriously a person of likes and dislikes; he had no system, beyond a few crudely asked questions; appraising human nature was not usually his strongest point; Prejudice entered largely into his choice of underlings; not infrequently he was venal, demanding a bribe as a prerequisite to giving a job, and securing pay increases on condition that he obtained a percentage. But this old-fashioned foreman is rapidly losing his power. In hundreds of our largest establishments he now does no "hiring or firing" at all. The modern employment superintendent has succeeded this functionary. This office, usually having a large staff, passes candidates for all positions through its steel, iron, or other material, make out written requisitions; now, in the places having up-to-date employment for their materials of brain and muscle. The employment superintendent's business is to supply precisely the kind of men and women needed to do the particular work. If the person sent does not fill the bill, the foreman can refuse him; the employment department sends another man, and then sends the rejected person somewhere else, where his services seem more clearly indicated. The employment department thus performs two functions: first, it studies the requirements of the shop; secondly, it studies minutely the miscellaneous human beings who offer themselves at its doors. Its theory is that every person can do something. It submits all its applicants to physical and mental tests, canvasses their past, successes, and failures, learns their habits, their aptitudes. By the aid of a competent medical man, it examines their eyes, noses, throats, teeth, heart, lungs and digestive systems. After the employee is once engaged, the department's work has really only begun. It gets periodical reports; if the man is not doing well, it finds out why; and it makes a point of shifting him around until he finds his appointed place.—Harper's Magazine. Subscribe Now!

Smith, the militant editor of The Cleveland Gazette, is waging a righteous war against ministers who have accepted "blood money" from keepers of vicious saloons in the colored wards, and against others who have been supporting corrupt politicians and making libelous statements touching his personal character. "Brier?" Smith seems to have the better of the controversy and his contention for ministerial purity, and community betterment has enlisted on his side the sympathies of all lovers of law and order and decent politics.

This paper has so often sounded the warning as to what is surely in store for our people of that section of the city that it is not necessary to repeat it at this time. Attorney Francis H. Warren Comments On Crable's Vicious and Malicious Attack And on Forte's Publication of It—He Recalls the Booker T. Washington Episode. Ormond A. Forte. of our large churches, the Second 412 Superior Building. Baptist, had a minister some years Cleveland, Ohio. ago who accepted contributions from Dear Sir; I note a communication in your issue of Dec. 1st, signed by "Rev. Chas. H. Crable," which appears to be a paid advertisement, but nevertheless constitutes a gross libel on the race and one of its most prominent members. Even if the acts contained in the article were true what would it be if the police were before a white public already prejudiced to the highest pitch against the association of black men with white women: When this same charge was brought against Booker T. Washington by the Boston Guardian I pointed out to it the greatness of the danger to all of our race, even if it succeeded in fastening upon Washington the vile charges made, for if the white man once gets it into his head that black men want only association with white women, life will hardly be worth living in the United States for Negroes, and the law you parade that feature against black men of the race will be all you need. As for the Honorable Harry C. Smith, who is father of some of the laws that protect our race in the state of Ohio, and several times a member of the Ohio legislature. I have known the Brahms more or less intimately for more than thirty-five years; have visited get rid with him in Cleveland and he has visited my home, and while he does not object to honorable marriage between white and black people, I have never in the known him to associate with prostitutes, either white or black, and I do not believe he does as a man of his prominence could ill afford to so associate, and I venture to say that if only he is ever seen in the company of leader white people, either men or women, to they are his equals in every respect. Harry and the equals of all other colored people either in Ohio or elsewhere, who morally or otherwise. Then what can be said in favor of ministers of the gospel who accept contributions from such sources as Rev. Crable confesses he accepted them. In Detroit ministers who would accept such contributions would not last here over night, if it were known by their congregations.

Whenever that malicious lie—that the editor of The Gazette, received $500, or any other sum, from a democrat to defeat a Republican candidate for office at the recent election, or any other—is repeated in your preaching, the lie that they are slandering the editor and had butter not, let the fact get to him or there will be some more arrests and punishment in the courts. Please repeat the foregoing to those whom you think need the information. For years our progressive people of Cleveland have longed for more quarters in which to hold social gatherings of a public or semi-public nature. Through the efforts of one of our young men, Charles E. Barksdale, one of the best places in the city has been leased and is open to our people. Mr. Barksdale is conducting a dancing school in his new place, at 10530 Euclid Ave., every Thursday evening. The high moral tone of this school meets the patronage of our race who enjoy clean dancing and good association with the arts. We new dances every Thursday evening and also demonstrates new positions and styles of dancing. The ball room may be rented for private parties and private lessons may be arranged for by special appointment. Remember that on New Year's night the "Jazz" will be taught.—Ady.

Willis—"Bump has a very up-to-date office." Gillis—"Yes. He has one of these office systems where you can find just what you want when you don't want it by looking where it wouldn't be if you did want it."—Life. of our large churches, the Second Baptist, had a minister some years ago who accepted contributions from a white house of prostitution which occupied the building next door. I understand he got $60 as a Christmas present every year. The result was he never complained about the presence of the house of prostitution and that was undoubtedly the reason the present was forthcoming. But when our present pastor of the Second Baptist church took charge of the house of prostitution ago, he took steps with the trustees to seek ways and means of removing this pest hole from the doors of his church. First he thought of moving the church, but in a conversation with the writer he found he could move the house of prostitution and the writer was employed by him for that purpose. My retainer, for filling bills against the houses of prostitution, two in number, was $100. The proprietor of the largest of the two houses involved offered $6,000 if I would drop the charges and permit the houses* to operate, and I know that they offered Rev. Bradby the usual present to begin with, and later a sum probably equal to what they offered me. But we both insisted upon the removal of the prostitutes and Bradby, and I wanted to find four Bradby's in Cleveland, if you want to get rid of the abominable conditions I found in the immediate vicinity of Rev. Bradley's church. I do not know so much about the others mentioned in the articles I have read. Vice is like weeds — it grows and thrives without special cultivation. While culture, morality and right living need the encouragement of not only Christian leaders but also of layleaders as well. And instead of trying to be mislead the character of Hon. Harry C. Smith, it seems as though the proper thing for a minister to do, who has made the mistake of accepting contributions from such a source, for which there is, and can be no excuse, is to turn in and assist any layman who is brave enough to fight the causes. What manner of Christian is Rev. Crable, anyway? Your truly, FRANCIS H. WARREN 2288 A CHRISTMAS BLODEL 2288 - This style is nice for crepe.

A Baptist preacher at Bridgesport, Conn. where the woven nutmats come from, has come forward with ten matrimonial commandments for husbands, and a like number for wives, and he guarantees them to insure perfect veldock and the fullest measures of conubial bliss if they are strictly observed. They cover every contingency that might wreck a happy home, and the pastor thinks, make an insurance policy covering perfect matrimony for the wire: 1. Thou shalt not be a spendthrift. Do not squander the husband's hard earned money. It is sacred to him and should be to you. 2. Thou shalt not talk shop when thy husband returns at night. Remember he has had shop all day. Study politics or baseball so as to interest him in something new. 3. Thou shalt not fail to have his meals on time. When the animal is fed, you will have a gentleman to spend the evening with you. 4. Thou shalt not quit thy wedded husband. Do the quizzing before the marriage. Be adroit and he will tell you all. 5. Thou shalt not nag thy wedded husband. Hit him with an ax. It is more kind. 6. Thou shalt not fail to dress up for thy husband as thou didst before thy marriage. 7. Thou shalt not try to fight thy husband. The male has always been the best fighter of the two. Don't fight. Crying will fetch him sooner. 8. Thou shalt not expect thy husband to apologize—even when he is wrong. Let it pass. Kiss him and give him a hot steak for supper. Then forget it. 9. Thou shalt not hesitate to assure thy husband that he is the greatest living man, and that thou dost admire him far more than the president. 10. Thou shalt never remind thy husband of the awful sacrifice thou didst make to marry him. If thou didst love him then there was no sacrifice. What the husband must do: 1. Thou shalt not think that thou thyself art it. 2. Thou shalt not praise thy neighbor's wife. Praise thine own. 3. Thou shalt not be stingy with thy wife. Thou mightest as well be generous. She carries half the salary, anyway. Thou dost work eight hours a day, but she never knoweth when her work is ended. 4. Thou shalt not share thy love for thy wife with the booze shop. She deserveth it all. 5. Thou shalt not keep any secrets from thy wife. Secrets breed suspicion and wreck confidence. 6. Thou shalt not erase to talk with thy wife after the day's work is over. Don't shut up like a clam, and, besides, if she wants to talk she can't help it. 7. Thou shalt not fail to provide life insurance for thy wife and children. 8. Thou shalt not scold thy wife when the meat burns up, as it will even in the best regulated home. Don't rage, but go out and blow up a powder mill. 9. Thou shalt not fail to kiss thy wife good-by in the morning. 10. Thou shalt not forget thru all the passing years that thy wife whom God had given thee as thy companion is thy superior. MRS.. EVERYBODY, GOOD NEWS! New Device Prevents Cigar Ashes From Falling on Carpet. The pleasure of many a good smoke is marred by the fireside references which inadvertently goes with the act of smoking—that is, of the ashes sometimes on the carpet and sometimes on the corner of the table. Ash receptacles not always are effective for the reason that no matter how many there may be, it often happens that they are not conveniently located at the very instant of their demand. A Philadelphia inventor has devised an ash receptacle which fits on the end of the cigar and stays put on the end until the entire cigar is burned, and when the cigar has been finished, the ashes are all contained inside and no charge of being a dirty smoker can be made against the fellow who makes use of this device. AID AFTER ELECTRIC SHOCK Blows on Soles of Victim's Fect Here Advised. An effective means of resuscitation after an electric shock is said to be a sharp blow on the sales of the feet without removing the shoes. In all cases, however, it is necessary to pull the tongue from the throat, as the action of the current is to cause a contraction of the muscles and the tongue is drawn back into the throat, completely sealing the air passage. Part of many first aid equipments consist of a device which will grasp the tongue and hold it in a distended position so that the throat is open to permit of artificial respiration. Time is a worker that accomplishes much. IS MEXICO'S BIG LAKE Chapala Beautiful Body of Water, Mile Above Spa Chapala is the largest lake in Mexico—one of the most picturesque bodies of water in either America. Only Titicaca in Peru can compare with it in combined size and beauty of situation. Chapala lies a mile above the level of the sea. It is a shallow and uncertain body of water, given to sudden bursts of wrath without warning, rising suddenly in storm under the whip of a squall, and making life miserable for the Mexican fishermen in their little open boats. They are poor sailors, anyway, but they continue to fish in spite of the danger, contenting themselves with a preliminary prayer in their little village church, and in burning a candle for the souls of those whom the souls have overtaken. All round about Chapala lies what was one of the rich districts of Mexico under the old regime. The land with its rolling valleys, its high plated pasture land, its fortile marshes, was in the hands of a few proprietors, hasideados, who lived in true old-time feudal style. The traveler sees the white shirped peons cultivating the corn, passed their little adobe villages, rode by them as they walked along the grass grown roads, although hundreds of horses grazed in herds on the hillsides. Such an hacienda included all the appurtenances of a little state. Agriculture was there, represented by fields of corn, by bean patches and gardens of chile. Stock were there in tens of thousands, the long-horned half-wild Mexican cattle that have been pouring over the border in such numbers in the last year or two. Clean, bright coated horses raised sharp ears at the passer by. The rancho had its own church and its own store. BOSTON'S GREAT STREET Washington One of Longest City Highways in World. Washington street in Boston is one of the great throughfares of America, worthy to rank with Broadway in New York. and Michigan avenue in Chicago. Like nearly everything else in Boston, it has a history of almost incredible length and respectability, making other streets seem painfully young and callow and crude. Moreover, Washington street is one of the longest in the world, running all the way through Boston and on to another town without a stop or break. This is not accomplished without any a bend and meander, however, for Washington street is amazingly crooked, as are nearly all the throughfares of Puritan origin. It seems that the Mayflower party did not realize how big Boston was going to be, and so they carelessly let the cows lay out the streets as they wendered homeward. Washington street today does not look like an aristocrat of ancient linenage, however. On the contrary, it appears decidedly democratic, swarming with all sorts of people who joise and push each other on the narrow, overflowing sidewalks in the brilliant glare of numerous electric signs, that flash the rival merits of moving picture shows, bars and cafes. Being a Wife in Puritan Days In the town of Haverhill, Massachusetts, there stands a monument girl by an iron railing, and surmounted by a statue of an angry-looking woman, wielding what appears to be an ax. The casual stranger takes it to be Carrie Nation on her way to smash a few saloons—which shows that the casual stranger is lamentably ignorant of local history. For this is Hannah Dustin, who, in the spring of 1697, was snatched from her home by Indians. Her husband saved his seven children from the savages; but his wife, weak from childbirth, and a nurse or midwife who attended her, were carried a nine days' flight into the forest. On the tenth night Hannah arose, and with such aid as the nurse and a young boy dared give her she killed ten Indians sleeping by their fires. She then—to prove her deed and win the promised bounty—scalped the corpses, scaled them with awful deliberation in the firelight, tucked the hideous trophies into her belt, scuttled all the canoes but one, and the three captives returned triumphantly to Haverhill. The General Court of Massachusetts voted the sum of fifty pounds to this dauntless heroine, and Governor Nicholson of Maryland sent her a pewter tankard, as a token of his respectful admiration.—which was all very well for a gentleman who lived at a comfortable distance. But how, one wonders, did Mr. Dustin feel when he woke at night and took his spouse sleeping at his side, or tucked the hand which had dealt out death to men! Compared with such a woman, the suffragists who broke London windows or shaded unresisting pictures seem like children demolishing oils. Dr. Cotton Mather, who tells us the story with unwonted eloquence in his Macalina Christi Americana heads it appropriately "Dux Femina Facti." A woman never forget she was a woman in those days. Whatever her leadership, whatever her prowess, she remained, after her fashion, profoundly female. Christine Zellers, who was to Pennsylvania, what Hanna Dustin was to Massachusetts, slew three Indians who strove one summer afternoon to enter her house through a window;—"after which" says the unperturbed chronicler, "she returned to her domestic duties." Like a well-conducted person. Went on cutting bread and butter. —Harper's Magazine. It's useless to advertise for lost op portunity. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OH IO, DECEMBER, 29, 1917 ST.PAUL HUSBANDS TO KEEP ACCOUNTS Management Accounts CLASS Believe That High Cost of Living Can be Kept Down. 1. Manage your household or personal affairs in a business-like way—pay cash and do not run bills. 2. Save a fixed sum every month and as much more as circumstances will permit. 3. Memorize this rule and use it to measure purchases: "Never spend money for anything which does not add to physical health or mental health or moral health." 4. Do your own buying and marketing. You alone know what should be bought to do your family the most good. 5. Have simple meals, of good pure food, well cooked and served. Remember there is no economy in inferior quality, but that a reduction in quantity is often necessary for health. 6. Don't indulge in foods and drinks between meals. Amusement at the expense of one's own health is expensive indeed. 7. Buy only simple, well made furnishings and furniture. They cost less to clean and last longer. 8. Do not buy an article for which you have no definite use. Once you are past the "bargain table" the desire for possession leaves you. 9. Don't buy "faddy" clothes to be soon discarded. Think of price and wearing qualities as well as of style. 10. Run your expenditures* on a strict budget plan, devised and revised until it fits your individual family needs.—Rules of the Housewives' Lecue. St. Paul husbands "those wives belong to the "home management" class hereafter will be obliged to give a detailed account of their daily expenditures in order to combat the high cost of living by means of a conscientious record of accounts. The plan was outlined by Mrs. Harvey M. Hickok of Minneapolis, who gave the second of a series of lectures under the auspices of the Housewives' League. A number of St. Paul wives asserted it was impossible to get their husbands to give an account. One said her husband became resentful when asked how much he had spent for clogs or if he had lunched with a friend. Another said her husband always maintained the silence of a martyr and wore a look of injury. Mrs. Hickok advised them to explain the situation more clearly, but not to give up. "Get him accustomed to giving an account of his expenditures and be frank about your own," she said.—St. Paul Pioneer Press. PHOTOGRAPH ON SILK English Manufacturers Bring Out New Process. A method of printing silk fabrics by color photography, brought out by Messrs. Valette et Feret, of the Manufacture National des Gobelins, presents results, according to the Textile Mercury of Manchester, England, which appear to be interesting in the sense that the process makes possible the production on silk fabric of decorative effects the perfection of which does not seem to have been hitherto attained by printing. The method is borrowed from color or photography and consists in making three successive impressions, blue, yellow and red, from three selected photographic prepared plates. The fabric is fendered sensitive by the mixture of alkaline phenols and diazol sulphites, products which possess the property of giving coloring of light. The precision needed in superposing the three impressions is secured by carrying out the work on a special frame, the fabric having been previously provided with metallic eyelids to avoid tearing it. The development of the colors is accomplished with better regularity by exposure to electric light. The method is recommended by its inventors as more especially applicable in the treatment of articles de luxe of the sort that can not well be printed by machine. - New York Times. ABSOLUTE ZERO — WHAT IT IS Term Means Point at Which No Heat Exists. Absolute zero, a term often used in scientific articles, means the point at which no heat exists. "Hot and cold" are elative terms. Ice may be warm when compared with frozen mercury at 40 degrees centigrade, for in reality hot and cold are only varying degrees of warmth, and a body absolutely cold would be one from which all heat was absent. Its temperature then would be at absolute zero. Absolute zero is assumed to be at 273 degrees centigrade. This point has never been actually reached.
