IN UNION IN STRENGTH FOOD SELECTED AS IT PASSES BY FARM SCHOOL HEAD INVENT3 LUNCH TURNTABLE Device Is Said to "Out-Automat" the "Automat" and to Put Caloriatra in the Snail Class. Food a is turntable — everything from soup, "piping hot," to apple pie—will be presented to patrons of the "cafetourner" without requiring them to move a step. As is the "automat" to the cafetiera, so is the cafetourner to be to the automat. D. D. Mayne, principal of the school of agriculture, Anthony Park, Minn., says so, and he is the inventor of the cafetourner. As director of the dining hall at university farm for many years, where about 700 persons are fed three times a day, Mr. Mayne has studied the feeding problem from the practical and the scientific viewpoint. The cafetourner is the result—the "restaurant moving about." It is designed to provide food automatically and insanity, allow inspection before purchase, keep hot food hot, and cold food cold; furnish the food in sanitary sealed boxes and eliminate all waiters. The same machine also will take used dishes back to the kitchen for washing. The cafetourner, according to its inventor, will obviate the deadly attack of the cafetiera sneezes. It will also thwart the chronic open-counter patron who hesitates over his choice of robe, puts back what his fingers had first seized and takes hard crusts instead of cinnamons. Then step into the cafetourner, who is expecting his nearest soon. "At the door you require a stickle of metalugs of various sizes, representing values of from a coat to so cents. The total is $1. Take your seat at a table. There pass slowly before you three rows of steel boxes with plate glass fronts so that you can see the food attractively prepared and garnished on the inside. When you see what you want, put in a slug of proper denomination. The glass door opens, you remove the dish. You help yourself in like manner with other prepared dishes, as fancy and delicate dictate. The upper row of boxes passes through collars at frequent intervals ad that the food is kept hot. The lower row of boxes likewise passes through refrigerating collars and their contents are kept cold. In the row of boxes between these are placed the foods that need be neither cold nor hot. One may commence eating as soon as he is seated at the table and can open one of the food boxes. No time is wasted, service is instantaneous. During the rush hours thousands may be served in a short time and in very small space. One may also eat all that he wishes. In fact, the sight of food passing before the eyes and convenient to hand will keep up the appetite, and one will eat more and digest what is eaten better. The total boxes are closed against all contamination. To make, certain that the boxes are thoroly clean, an inside box is provided so that when the food is removed and the empty inside box is removed, the inside box is pulled out and placed in the sterilizer, and a 'new inside' with food is inserted. Every form of table may be provided. Patrons may sit at small tables accommodating two, or at long tables. Some patrons prefer to eat standing. That method is provided along the side of the room. "Others wish a private dining-room. That is also a part of the system. The patrons go with his party of two to his person, puts a quarter in the slot at the door—the door opens and there is safety privacy. The host here may select from the passing boxes the food he wishes to serve his guests, and be mobilized during the entire meal. No wires—no checks—no tips. When the patron passes out of the restaurant he pays for the amount of money that he does not return." FINDS CHILD PLAGUE REMEDY? Doctor Recommends Salt Water as a Preventive announcement that Dr. Edward Taylor, professor of tropical medicine at the University of Vermont, had made an important discovery as to the manner in which infantile paralysis is spread, was made by Dr. Charles D. Overyy, president of the State Board of Health. Dr. Davies has apparently shown" Dr. Davies said, "that diseased lungs and throats allow the passage of the virus into the central nervous system, while normal noses and throats seem to neutralize this poison. "The simple process of cleaning the nose and throat with warm water in which table salt has been dissolved is perhaps as good a preventive as we have."

San Antonio, Tex., July 15, 1919 Special to The Gazette Edition. Some of our newspapers print in big headlines the fact that our U. S. troops were the first to enter Mexico. They seem proud of this. But I say to you, that under those headlines those who love the race should print a quotation from Shakespeare and that line should read: "Those who have tears, and those who shed now." Our soldiers must strike a people who would be our friends and who offer every opportunity that any country can offer to its own citizens regardless of color, race, or previous condition. When it is our duty to wage war against our friends let us do it manfully but not gleefully. It is a sad condition that confronts us. Another point I would have you note that this is not the famous 24th: The transition from the old 24th to the new 24th is as complete as that when it is not the greatest. This new 24th will perhaps become as famous as the old, but time must prove them. The refusal of the old 24th to take anything but a man's part at Houston, Tex., to the acceptance of the new 24th of a "jim-crow" Y. M. C. A. in Columbus, N. M. is a fairy. However, a discussion of the difference between a Colored Y. M. C. A. and a "jim-crow" Y. M. C. A. as well as the steps by which the 24th descended from the greatest exhibited man of the world to its present status, is a subject for various chapters. One of my mottoes is: "Devoted, to the best in the interest of all." Thus in writing these letters I must be careful not to estrange our friends or to create situations like the Longview affair. For a thing may be true and yet not expedient. The core may be worse than the all. There are dangers with time and the Y. M. C. A. I have known service and sacrifice to its fullest extent. And if I have learned anything it is this: Merit and service do not win against pull and selfish interest. But as I say, let's have a different chapter, for each subject. Your friend and admirer, Will Edwin Smith And' Dragged Her From The Car- Why, Wasn't He Killed? Dallas, Tex.—Even the "jim crow" car law is not enforced in Dallas, Texas, when it happens to work to the disadvantage of white passengers on the city street railways. As a result of the unequal operation of this peculiar law of the southland, a colored woman was brutally attacked by a white passenger on the Harwood Oak Lawn car at 8 p.m. Sunday, July 19, 1989, when the white passenger presented against the white passenger taking a seat in the "Negro" section of the car, thereby causing colored passengers to stand. A white man overhearing the remark, told her to shut up. She refused, whereupon the brute slapped her in the face, knocking her down. Another colored woman, who attempted to assist her friend, was in turn knocked down: The trouble occurred while the car was passing through the business section of the city and at Murphy street most of the time, and was directed to the front made a hurried exit. The white brute, who had at the beginning of the affray drawn his gun, also alighted dragging the woman from the car with him. When she grabbed him about the waist he again knocked her down. Officers took the woman in charge. Passengers on the car claimed not to know the identity of the brute, but said the police officer who took charge of the woman did not place him under arrest. There were no colored MEN on the car or the white brute would have been killed. Brascher Sentenced to the Ohio Penalties Indianapolis, Ind.—Mrs. Rose Lynn Macon, mother of Nathum Daniel Bruscher, editor-in-chief of the Associated Negro Press, Chicago; fl. died after an extended illness at her daughter, Mrs. S. Lavinia LaRue's this city. According to Major W. T. Anderson of Cleveland, O. where Bruscher lived until in recent years. Major W. T. Anderson the latter was sentenced to the Ohio Penitentiary, some months ago at Toledo, O., on a charge of misappropriation of funds, and then paroled. Major Anderson, on the retired list of the U. S. Army, was pastor of Warren A. M. E. church, Toledo, O., at the time of Brusher's arrest and claims to have been active in assisting in the prosecution. SIXTEEN WHITES ARRESTED And More, To Follow—Burned Six Houses Beut Jones and Killed Others. Longview, Tex., July 28.—Arrest of additional white men was expected today following yesterday's Ranger round-up in which sixteen whites and 15 Negroes were arrested for alleged connection with the recent riots here. The whites were all charged with assault with intent to murder and were released on $1,000 bonds. Arrests today probably will be for arson in connection with the burning of six Negro's houses during the riots by Ranger Capt. W. Ellis, in charge of the investigation. The situation was quiet today and lifting of martial law was expected tomorrow. The trouble started when white brutes met S. L. Jones, our school-teacher here, and beat him-up severely, because of a report of an alleged lynching which was printed in a Chicago colored newspaper; at the instance of Jones, and which stated that a local white woman of African-American origin with Afro-American and busy writing and sending him love-letters. Ernest Smith, the young lieutenant seriously injured in the early morning clash with Afro-Americans, recently, was somewhat improved today and it is expected he will recover. White was badly beaten with a club and his head severely bruised. It was reported that he had also been beaten with a club and his head severely bruised and it was more than two hours before his cries brought assistance. The three other white men wounded when fired upon by Afro-Americans in ambush are seriously hurt. This is the strong that will eventually stop mob violence and lynching, and our people here in the South are beginning to use it offender, than ever before. Good! Marion Rush, an aged Afro-American, was a local manufacturer and one other member of the race were brutally murdered by white brutes during the recent riot troubles. Dr. Davis' house, one of the six burned, cost him $10,000 and was splendidly equipped and furnished. Cape May, N.J. J, July 20th, 1919. The latest list of airports in Delaware. California, Pa., S. C.

"The Old Reliable" Gazette's DuBois Publications for Many Months Fully Justified In Recent Months. Washington, D. C.—In a long letter to Fred Moore, publisher of the N. Y. Age, Dr. Emmett J. Scott replies to "Capt. Wm. DuBois' latest outburst against him, published in the 55,000 a year editor's Crisis. Write Dr. Scott: "Although criticising me, it is interesting to analyze Dr. DuBois' latest statement wherein he becomes a witness for himself. He states: "For December 1 (1918) the Editor of The Cincinnati Press. He head of conditions, not conspiracies, wholesale oppression and cruelty of which he had had no previous inking. For four long months story after story, and document after document, poured into the editor's hands substantiating the above charges. For four months the editor was helpless." "Now, as a matter of fact, was he helpless? for if he knew as he states, that while abroad he was under surveillance and was compelled to sign a pledge (and brave, bold man that he is, he signed RI) prohibiting him from entering the city of Cincinnati or the news contained in those numerous "stories" and "documents" which he said he was constantly receiving for "four long months," why in the name of high Heaven and human jus- PROFESSOR J. E. SPINGARN. tice did he not hasten to America that we together might co-operate and seek to control the situation he describes. According to his own written statement, he knew of these conditions and did absolutely nothing "for four long months," except to devote time to a riculous organization which effectually did nothing except to get the editor's name in some few newspapers. What then gives him grace or "nerve" to criticize me? Again I say I refuse, to recognize this pinyu right to call me to account. The account, of my stewardship has been laid and will be further laid before Colored Americans generally and it is their verdict, and not Dr. DuBois' which will be the final one reached in the case of the pinyu right to permit a man that is not following the dictates of honest judgment but actuated by motives, as I have stated, which he dare not disclose to the public, to discredit a record which has been made in the open view of the whole Negro and white population of America—a record of which I am not the deast bisham ashes of the pinyu right to permit the aggrieved. The difficulty under which every official, including the Secretary of War, labored during the war period and too well known to be rehearsed at a time like this, but Dr. DuBois lives quite up to the traditions of certain groups of colored people, whether born in the Southland or in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, in giving full and complete credit wherever possible, and generously does in the case of Secretary Baker, and in soeking to discredit a Negro official no matter how carnestly and faithfully he may have labored by the side of that selfsame worthy white official. Dr. DuBois' desire to secure a place in the War Department last summer occasioned me no personal uneasiness or discomfiture. It had no personal criticism of him because he sought a commission in the Army for none of his activities would have directly or indirectly encroached upon any of my own duties as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, which fact, I assume, he well knows. I was merely loyal to the understanding that we were to have his closest white friends who called with him to see me in the War Department before the Editors' Conference, last July, at a time when he was anxious to secure, as he will confess, I am sure, not a "Captain's commis sion" but a "Major's commission," for that is what he really sought, while being willing if necessary to accept the Captain's commission. It will be noted that in his so-called "reply," Dr. DuBois completely dodges and evades answering the questions I propounded to him in my open letter previously published; he fails W. E. B. Dullois absolutely to cite one specific case of overrears complaints of colored men that he ever brought to my attention, or in which I ever failed to go forward earnestly, seeking remedial action. If he positively knew of the gross injustices being perpetrated or visited upon Negro soldiers overseas, and of all the conditions he mentions for them, he did not get come back to America before "four long months" had expiied and worked up that "public opinion" of which he speaks "that would have brought Greer and his compere home?" What is he doing now to punish Greer while engaged in his crusade against colored men who are not white? What is he doing to parison with his, and how bow not at the feet of the All-Highest. At a time like the present, when all elements and influences among the Negro people should be united against the common foes of genuine "Freedom and Democracy," which should be shared in 'and enjoyed by black men as well as white men—it is to be deplored that Dr. DuBois or anyone else has been fit to divide counsel among the Negro people by adopting a policy of personal criticism merely because one does not dance to the Hon. Emmett J. Scott tune of his fiddle, and does not care to adopt the destructive methods so long and unsuccessfully followed by him and his patron, (Major J. E. Spingain), who, like himself, prefers the peace, peace and concord, unless forsooth, they are the reigning factors in a given situation. } But enough of this. 'I have entered upon new and important duties here at Howard University as Secretary-Treasurer and Business Manager, and have little or no time to devote to personal controversy and private bickering. The doctor of The Crisis is welcome to continue his program of criticism and fault-finding. He will not disturb me. Afro-American Expert Farell, Pa.-Archie W. Kemp, head of the nail coating department at the American Steel and Wire Co., here, has been ordered to Donora, Pa., for 15 days to superintend the opening of the nail coating department as well as with his duties some time. He is an expert in his line of work. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS MAJOR! OLD FIFTY-NINER MARVELS AT CITY RETURNS TO DENVER AND SEES CONDITIONS CHANGED Handful of Houses Sail Wnrs Sky-scrapers Now Rear Their Heads Rufus Townbridge—Discovers Denver, Colo.—While the, din of a busy city—resounded in Denver's downtown district, Rufus Townbridge, 77, sat at a second story window overlooking one of the busiest streets and told of the Denver which he had known is a little village along the banks of Cherry Creek, more than fifty years ago. Townbridge first saw Denver in 1859 when, in company with other gold seekers he braved the dangers of an unsettled country, where Indians were an ever present menace, hoping to find a fortune. In Colorado's newly discovered gold fields. Of the party of seventeen men with which Townbridge came west, only he and George Chase of Boulder are now alive. Townbridge who now makes his home with a daughter in Grand Junction has spent the past few days in Denver and Boulder, comparing the two cities with the tiny settlements he knew in the days of the gold rush, and has recalled "many, interesting reminiscences of pioneer times." Townbridge was a youth of 21 when he felt the call of the west and joined a company which was formed in Boone county, Illinois, to cross the plains in prairie schoolers drawn by oxen. Many harrowing experiences led to the lot of men as their caravan crept, slowly westward. But nothing dummed them and when they reached Omaha they decided to outfit for a journey to California and not stop in Colorado. With good luck they could reach the Pacific coast in six months, recording to their estimate. When the company arrived at Fort Larrake, Wyo., seventeen men, including Townbridge decided to carry out their original plan and come to the Colorado mining district. They were influenced to change their plans thus statements by Horace Oreeley, who had passed thru the fort a few days ahead of them and had told the soldiers that Colorado was the land of opportunity. Accordingly the little party headed south from Fort Larrake to Boulder, the journey occupying more than a week. Boulder, where they arrived about the middle of July, 1859, had about fifty residents at that time and Denver was not much larger. Many narrow escapes from death at the hands of Indians are recounted by Townbridge. He says that ochoe on a journey from Fort Kearney, Neb., to Fort Laramia, Wyo., the little company with which he was traveling, thirty-five men in all, was attacked by a force of 400 Indians. The Indians first attempted to stampede the oxen, and when they had failed in that, drew firearms and fows and ordered the white men to give up all their belongings. The members of the party showed a disposition to fight and the drivers were told to go ahead. For some reason which the white men could not understand the originals allowed them to proceed. Trowbridge says the Indians had fresh scalps at their belts. After spending a few years in the West Townbridge returned to Iowa, where he settled down as a farmer. A few years ago he came to Grand Junction, Colo. In spite of his advanced age Townbridge is in vigorous health. Getting Job His Hardest Work; Keeping it is Easy. Erie, Ill.—Despite total blindness, K. S. Thompson of this city is an efficient telephone operator. He says it is much easier for him to hold his position than it was for him to get it in the first place, the telephone company having been doubtful as to his ability to make good. Thompson overcomes his handicap by a very keen sense of hearing and by some added touches to his exchange equipment. In "plugging in" he depends upon brass points along a special designation strip. Sense of touch makes it possible for him to perceive which line he is plugging in, and it is said that he makes fewer mistakes than are made by the usual full visioned operator. The blind-operator takes much interest in his work and is constantly arriving to improve his service. HAS NEW "CURE" FOR OBESITY German Scientist Feeds Patients With Small Quantities of Metals.

SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1919. Makatoka, N. C., has a "jim-crow" U. S. Post Office and the Wilson administration which is "southern" itself, permits this insult to American citizens. That Senator Borah's sympathy for the white South overshadows his sympathy for our people and a proper regard for the right and justice the latter are entitled to in this country, is made perfectly clear in a recent speech he has made. As presidential timber — republican candidate — this "Progressive-Republican" simply will not do. --- With prejudiced southerners stopping the erection of a hospital for our people by the state of Maryland, refusing the use of the U. S. mails to several of our newspapers publishing severe criticisms of the lynching of Afro-Americans in the south, promoting "race riots" at the nation's capital as well as elsewhere in the South and North, and trying to rob Howard University of its regular Congressional appropriation, etc. etc., it would seem as if they were really trying to "carry the war into Africa" now that the World War is over. It is certainly great satisfaction for "The Old Reliable" Gazette to see so many of its contemporaries finally reaching the conclusions, as to Editor Wm. DuBois, it has published and republished repeatedly ever since the Editors' Conference in Washington, D.C., last year in June. The Gazette was the first race publication to expose DuBois and with the exception of the Pittsburgh Courier, for many months the only one to do so. The first reply of Dr. Emmett J. Scott and Editor Geo. W. Harris of the N.Y. News' editorial were the first real exposes to follow The Gazette's and now many race publications have awakened to the duty they owe the race, and DuBois, too. Good! DEMOCRAT BEATEN The Democrats carried for Congress the Fourth district in Minnesota in 1916 by 23,516 votes against 11,737 Republican. In 1918, when the Republicans swept the country, this Democratic district still remained Democratic and the Republican candidate was again defeated. In the recent election to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Mr. Van Dyke, there were three candidates, two being Republican. Both the Republicans got more than the Democrat. The Independent Republican got 3,000 more and the other Republican got 1,000 more. The Democrat was a bad third in a 10,000 Democratic district. Again evidence is presented that the people are leary of Mr. Wilson, his administration, and his panacacs. There awaits the Democratic party in 1920 something about like what Mr. Willard got in Toledo on July Fourth. Immediately at the close of President Willson's recent plea of suppression and avoidance in Congress, the ubiquitous reporters demanded of Senator Harding and of Congressman Fess their opinions. Senator Harding said: "The President's address was the appeal of the 'internationalists.' It was utterly lacking in ringing Americanism. What the President said about America's moral leadership I thoroughly agree and approve, but I do not regard it necessary to write leadership into a covenant such as that of the proposed League of Nations." Representative Fess said: "The thing that impressed me is that the President's immersion in European problems has inevitably accentuated his interest for foreign affairs, not in his American interests, in his own language he demands that 'at whatever cost of independent action' by this or any other nation, the League of Nations must be supported. * * * I do not believe the American people will be able to grasp and to applaud such a conception of America's function." Thus speaks Ohio for Americanism. The Ohio doctrine is: "The Independence of the American Republic—it must and shall be preserved." Where Harding and Fess lead no Ohioian need fear to follow. RACE RIOTS END IN CAPITAL Six Killed and Twelve Seriously Wounded in the Clashes— Nearly All Whites Washington, D. C.—Race riots in the national capital have been stopped, in the opinion of police and military authorities guarding the capital. There were two casualties during Tuesday night, but they were the results of isolated incidents. No clashes between mobs of whites and Afro-Americans, such as were frequent Monday night, occured. The man killed, I. W. Halpsender, (white), member of the Home Defense League, boarded a street car to "arrest" an armed "Negro." The latter shot three times, one bullet striking Halpsender in the heart. E. Belminton, (white), another member of the League, was struck by one of the bullets. He is expected to die. Gen.William G. Haan, who commanded the 32nd Division, on the Marne, France, took command of the military force. He numbered additional troops at his disposal. Six are dead, twelve may die and scores were injured in the fights, the three nights. Most of the killed and wounded are white mobsters. The daily newspaper stories about the frequent assaulting of white women here by colored men, and the indiscriminate shooting of innocent whites (not mobsters) by our men, are lies conceived and sent by prejudiced reporters and correspondents. GERMANS ARE GERMANS Baltimore, Md.—The war is over. Enough of the seeds of hate have been sown to sprout and spring up for a thousand years. We need sow no more. Let us then drop the terms of hate; stop printing the words "Hun," "Hunland," "Boche," "Fritz," "Heine," and other derogatory epithets. During the war these epithets were a part of the Allied ammunition. They were psychological gas shells. But after the signing of a peace treaty it is as wrong to use this species of nasty poison as any other. Americans who are black should drop these terms at once for they know, better than any other Americans the burden of obtrous epithets. Prof. Wm.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of his own, restaurant, eating barbershop, public confluence by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Oath of Allegiance. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. THE MAN WHO DARES. "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 contempt of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Summer. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JULY 26, 1919. A DOINGS OF THE RACE R. R. Church, of Memphis, Tem- made an unfortunate mistake when he made Roscoe Camouflage Simmons president of his Lincoln League—Ex. In the last ten years, Japanese births have increased 3,000 per cent in the rural districts of California, while the white births have decreased about nine per cent, says that state's Board of Health. Att. Wm. Hueston, of Kansas City, Mo., is making a very successful tour in the interest of the Dr. Leroy N. Bundy defense fund. He is one of the latter's attorneys, and aggressive and able. Out in DesMoines, Iowa, led by At- torney Geo. Woodson, our people are asking for a "jim-crow" fire-engine company. Up in Michigan at Battle Creek, they are rejoicing over establish- ing a "jim-crow" hotel. The radical groups in New York have worked out a nation-wide scheme of propaganda to convert the Afro- American to Socialism. DuBois, Shil- lady, Spingarn and Mary White Ovington, officers of the N. A. A. C. P., are Socialists. Oswald Villard is a Wilson Democrat. For the second time in its history, the much coveted Phi Beta Kappa Key has been won by an Afro-American student at Western Reserve University, Cleveland, O. Perry B. Jackson of Janesville, Wise, a student who has had to work his way through college, is the winner. Kid Norfolk and Jamaica Kid are practically matched for a six-round bout at the Philadelphia National League Baseball Park on July 28.

That the mob spirit is abroad in the south there can be no doubt. Throughout the entire south—Texas, Mississippi, Louisiana, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and the District of Columbia, comes the report of the mob spirit—lynching, and burning of all descriptions.—Louisville (Ky.) Reporter. Testifying in the District Court at Omaha, Neb., July 17, in the suit of his son-in-law for annulment of marriage on the grounds of "Negro" blood in his wife's veins, Douglass B. McCarr, former cashier of the defunct Capitol Savings Bank Washington D. C., of which the Bank Hill Rapport denied, in his testimony or the witness stand, that he had "Negro" blood or that his father or mother were "Negroes" or of "Negro" delinquency. The following is Ralph Wilgera Tyler's compliments (?) to "Captain" Wm. DuBois: "You state in the July number of the Crisis, according to the same advance sheet I have seen, and which, under your editorial management, apparently, is degenerating into a medium through which to give vent to your personal spleen and dissatisfaction with every one, save yourself, that while in France I 'sent nothing,' that since my return I have 'published practically nothing.'" Hot stuff, for the $5,000 a year editor of the Crisis. There are now 4,000 Afro-American physicians, 1,000 trained nurses, 2,000 lawyers, 300 race weekly newspapers and a score of magazines owned and published by our people. There are 400 authors and inventors. Our people support and manage 60 institutions of learning while 2,000,000 of our children between 5 and 21 are being sent to private schools; 3,000 Afro-Americans are taking special courses in trades and business professions and there are 30,000 teachers trained in creditable institutions. We own $20,000,000 in school property, $44,000,000 in church property and $1,000,000 in real estate and personal property. Mrs. Mary C. Terrell At Home Washington, D. C.-Mrs. Mary Church Terrell is at home again, after an absence of several weeks, attending the sessions of the International Congress of women in France and Switzerland. Mrs. Terrell took a prominent part in the deliberations of this body and her opinions were listened to with the greatest respect by women from all parts of the world and she, the only Afro-American delegate, was the assistant number of the sessions which the congress accepted as the sense of the Congress. During a large part of her stay in Paris, Mrs. Terrell was the roommate of Miss Jeanneette Rankin of Montana, the only woman ever elected to the American Congress, and they traveled much in company with Mrs. Louis F. Post, wife of the Assistant Secretary of Labor. In a public address at an early date, Mrs. Terrell will tell of her interesting experiences abroad.

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. PEARLIS FOUND IN NOSE OF SMALL TOY DOGGIE This But One of Many Ingenius Devices Used by Japanese in Smuggling Scheme San Francisco, Cal.—A little toy dog, with a stubby tail and a pointed nose, which would emit a bark like a grunt when pressed, stood on the table in the office of Justus Wardell, surveyor of the port, surrounded by a collection of cultivated pearls. The tip of his tail was missing, as was the end of his nose, both of which had been cut away by custom inspectors. The dog was only one of many clever contrivances used by the Y. Nakane a wealthy pearl merchant of Tokyo, who was arrested when he made a declaration at the custom house, saying that he carried only $400 worth of pearls. An investigation of his baggage by Custom Inspector J. B. Brosnan revealed pearls valued at more than $5,000 and resulted in the Japanese confessing that he had attempted to smuggle the pearls into the country. Nakane arrived in San Francisco aboard the Tenyo Maru and declared to the customs inspector that he had $400 worth of pearls in a small jewel case. An examination of the case showed that it had a false bottom and pearls value at $1,000 were revealed with the destruction of the case. This was the first lot to be discovered. While the jewel case was being taken apart Nakane drew from his pocket a dainty Japanese tobacco box and proceeded to roll a cigarette. The beauty of the box attracted the attention of Wardell, who asked to see it at closer range. The box when examined revealed another $1,000 worth of the precious gems. Nakane removed his coat to assist in the work of unpacking his cases. Again Wardell was attracted by the beauty of a silk vest, and made an examination and found that in the center of each of the buttons was set a small pearl, which was so near the color of the shell like buttons that the genus could only be detected by an expert. In the bottom of one of the merchant's tramas the inspector found a toy dog carefully wrapped in tissue paper. Nakane explained that it was to be a gift to a child relative here. An examination of the outside of the toy revealed nothing; finally the tip of the nose was removed with a pair of scissors and it was found to be filled with pearls. A like find was made in the dog's nose. Nakane then confessed that he had tried to smuggle the jewels into this country. The gems were confiscated. IOWA HAS HEN THAT CROWS Flaps Her Wings and Exults in Chicken Contralto Tones Des Moines, Iowa—Did you ever hear of a hen that crows when it lays an egg? Kansas may brag about its egg-laying roosters, but Des Moines has the real thing in a hen that actually crows. The hen which is winning chanticleer honors is owned by Ralph Huttenlocher of 1525 Arlington avenue, is of the black Spanish type and a splendid layer. The featured prima dona's efforts for impressario honors was not noticed until several days ago, says Mr. Huttenlocher. A crowing was heard in the hen house, but while the noise did not betray the rich barante characteristic of the usual barnyard cantata, the aria was at least artificial. When members of the family went out to the henhouse there was a warm egg in the nest and the black hen was flapping her wings and lowering her head in imitation of the rajah of the feathered haren when he crows, but the appearance of the visitors frightened the hen and the expected chanticleer oratorio was not commenced. On the following day the family kept a closer watch. One of the members saw the hen flap her wings and then in a rich chicken contralto that showed unmistakable evidence of long training, she crowed. Since then the hen has been heard several times executing a brand of crow that would be music in the ears of even a defeated political candidate. FIRE HORSE STOPS RUNAWAY Old Dan of Muncie, Ind., Decorated With Medals as Result. Muncie, Ind.—Old Dan a truck horse at fire station No. 1, is being decorated with medals because he stopped a runaway horse. He was injured but not seriously. Dan stopped the runaway against the efforts of Earl Fitch a fireman, who was riding the horse. Dan was being exercised when Fitch saw a runaway dray horse coming down the street. With whip and spur Fitch sought to get Dan to safety, but the horse refused to obey orders and stood directly in front of the frightened dray horse. Dan was knocked down and dragged some distance, his weight stopped the runaway. Cold Storage. Bread. Minneapolis, Minn. - Cold storage broad is the latest innovation in the commissary department of the farm at the University of Minnesota. It has been found that bread placed in cold storage will keep entirely fresh for at least five days. As a result the number of bakings at the institution has been materially reduced. An automobile can't climb, but there are families that can't climb without one. * "Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it is a law of nature."— John Stuart Mill.

REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake." New York City Displaces Amsterdam, Holland, as World's Greatest Jewel Cutting Center. Since the earliest days of the art Amsterdam has had a monopoly of the work of cutting diamonds, and outside of Holland few competent workmen could be found. It is a difficult art to acquire, and there has been little exact knowledge of its technicalities except in Holland, where diamond cutting has been largely a hereditary trade, its secrets and processes being handed down from father to son for many generations. Of late, however, partly owing to the interruptions of the business due to the war, and to some extent because of the rapidly growing sales of precious stones in America, the United States has become one of the largest—it not actually the largest—diamond markets in the world, and the trade of diamond cutting has become established on a large scale. In New York City there are now twenty or more shops, employing over 590 skilled workmen. Most of these men are Hollanders, who for several years have been drifting over in increasing numbers because of diminished employment at home and also because of the wages they can command in the United States, which are vastly higher than they ever received at home. It is said that approximately $1,000,000 worth of diamonds are cut in New York every month. Indeed, it is asserted that the diamond cutting industry is firmly established on a scale that promises to make New York the permanent diamond market of the world.

Two years ago the Davis adminis- tration made Attorney Alex H. Mar- tin and his friends believe that it would place him on its slate for “Muny” judge but secured the elec- tion of Judge Walter H, MeMahon in- stead. Now it is trying the same old “stunt"—to fool our voters into again supporting the Davis adminis- tration at the election, this fall, with the Martin candidacy. Don’t be so easy! W. T. Boyd, E. $ist St., who died late last week and was buried, Mon- day afternoon, was one of our oldest residents. For many years he had been a very active mason as well as one of the highest officers in the state, and a baggage-master on the N, Y. Central Ry. until retired on a pension. For many years Mr. Boyd has been given credit for conducting correspon- dence with foreign lodges which real- ly belonged to Prog. Justin Holland, an old resident of this city many years ago. The latter died in New Orleans where he went to make his home with his son, Justin Holland, Jr., an ex- ceptionally valuable employe in the U. S. internal revenue service there. When Mr. Boyd came to Cleveland, many years ago, he found an old or- ganization known as “The Social Cir- cle” which admitted as members only ‘mulattos, octoroons and lighter mem- bers of the race. He promptly des- ignated it as “The ‘Blue-Vein soci- ety” and began a fight on it which only ended with his becoming a mem- ber of the orgaization, even tho he was a shade or two too dark, being a quadroon at best. For many years after, he was practically the leader of “Phe Social Circle” or “Blue-Vein so- ciety” which The Gazette aggressive- ly opposed for many years before it was tinally os out of existence. Mr. Bayd und others of that organization are principal characters (but under other names, however) of Charles W. Ohesnutt's well known book, “Wife of his Youth.” The funeral services, Monday afternoon at St. Andrews Episcopal church, were attended by many of our oldest residents and by four or five officers of the state grand Todge, headed by the Hon.

Mr. Bird also says that ‘it is alleged that Atty. Martin said there were too many saloon-keepers in our politics.

Helena, Mont.—When Evelyn Mitchell, a 16 year old girl who for nine years has been the slave of a band of gypsies in this country and Europe, threw herself into the arms of her father, a ranchman near a Montana town, it was the first time either had set eyes upon the other since the day of the mother's funeral. In Helena nearly ten years ago. M. L. Rickman, secretary of the State Bureau of Child and Animal Protection, escorted the girl to the ranch from Glacier Park, where he met her in charge of Miss Georgiana Allen, a Harve school teacher, who agreed to chaperon the girl to Montana from a house of detention in Oakland, CAL. H. A. Davee, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who was attending the National Teachers' Association, was bequest by the Oakland authorities to provide escort for the girl back to Montana. The city paid her expenses. Supt. Davee learned that Miss Allen, a teacher, was shortly to come home, and the latter went to the house of detention, where the girl has been kept two months to guard her against kidnapping by the gypsy band from which she was taken. There, arrangements were made for bringing her home, and the teacher and the girl departed secretly from San Francisco, embarking on a steamboat for Astoria, from which point they went by train to Glacier Park. The necessity for keeping their whereabouts secret was urged by the girl, who was in terror of being seized by the band. She declared that she was likely to be taken from a train by members stationed along the road and on watch, hence the trip by steamer was devised. It is at the request of Miss Mitchell that her present address is not revealed by Mr. Nickman. But she is safe with her father and her sister at the former's ranch in Montana. A married sister lives on a ranch adopting that of the father. The three girls and the fath are again remitted after ten years. The history of the young woman reads like romance. For several years she has been trying to escape from the gyrpses but, alone and friendless, she was given no opportunity until about three months ago, when the Oakland officials secured possession of her after a desperate fight in the courts. The Marino band, to which she was sold for $2,000 in 1912, is rich, and money was spent lavishly to deafen justice. About ten years ago, following the funeral of the mother, the girl and a sister were placed in the St. Joseph's Orphan's Home. There they remained for perhaps six months, when Evelyn was taken to Butte and in Judge Donlan's Court, upon the representations of an attorney named A. C. McDaniel, adoption papers were made out for Mary Mitchell, placing her in charge of a couple named Gychi. It developed later, that the Gychis were members of a gypsy band. As the girl grew older she longed for a return to American life, as she called it. Living in wagons or tents along the highways, half starved and beaten by the Gychi couple whenever she did not bring us as much money as they considered adequate, for her existence was unhappy. Thru the eastern states and down South the band wandered, and in the winter of 1912 at Los Angeles Evelyn enlisted the sympathy of an American woman and the authorities were notified. Immediately there ensued a battle in the courts. The Gychi produced adoption papers, but the Los Angeles judge held up the case, when the girl told him that her name was not Mary, as shown in the papers, but was Evelyn. Lawyers for the gypsies wrote to Judge Donlan asking him to make an affidavit that Mary, and Evelyn were one and the same, but the judge, who had nearly forgotten the incident of adoption, declined to interfere. About the same time the Los Angeles authorities asked Mr. Rickman to arrange to place her with relatives, and he practically concluded arrangements to send her to an aunt at Rochester, Minn. when the girl was kidnapped by the Gychi, who fled the city. Fearing that they might get into serious trouble it caught, the Gychis sold the girl for $2,000 to a rich leader of gypsies named Marino. In order to hold her Marino had his son, a boy of 20, marry her under gypsy law. This marriage of course was not binding, albeit Evelyn believed it to be. c Then the Marino embarked on a long pilgrimage. They coached Evelyn as a fortune teller and went first to New York City. From there they went to France, then the lesthmus of San ma, then to Honolulu and the Philippine islands, eventually coming back to the United States. About three months ago the girl escaped and was picked up by the Oakland authorities on complaint of the Marino gypster, and thus she was given an opportunity to tell her story in court. As a result she was consigned to the care of Matron Ilich of the Oakland Detention Home. HERE'S CITY CHAP WHO'S NOW BOSS OF BIG FARM They Say It Can't Be Done. But Young Chicagoan Just Went Ahead and Did It. Ada, Okla.—Can a boy born and reared in a big city and educated in a fashionable school leave the rush of the crowds, go hundreds of miles away, take charge of a farm and make money? Kenneth Wickett has demonstrated that it can be done. Wickett, who is only 19 years old and has been on a farm but one year of his life, is manager of one of the best farms in Pontotoc county. He is succeeding, if success on a farm is to be reckoned in dollars and cents. Wickett was born in Chicago and, save for a time when he was in school in New York has spent practically all of his time in Chicago. A year ago he came to visit on Blue Valley farm, a farm of 1,000 acres that his father and bought a few years before. While he was down here the manager left, knowing little about farming, but having plenty of nerve and the determination to win, Wickett tackled the job himself and has been with it ever since. He says he intends to stick because he likes the life. The common breed of hogs that he found on the place were supplanted by pure bred Poland Chinas. The scrub cattle that roamed over the hillside pastures in this short space of one year have given away to pure bred Angus. A score of acres have been added to the alfalfa acreage, and dozens of other improvements have been made by this youthful manager. For the last year, in fact, ever since young Wickett took charge, the farm has paid wonderfully well. CHAMPION DOG CATCHER Captures Them With Bare Hands and Shows More Scare Than an Iceland Whaler. Denver, Colo.-Herman W. Corn, dog-catcher-in-chief for Walter Cox, Denver's poundmaster, looks as if he had encountered a busy buzzsaw or stopped the contents of a Krupp gun in sudden flight. His body is literally covered with scars from bits he has received within the past six years of service. An auditing committee met and took account of the scars on this man. There are six on the hand, forty-one on the face, sixty on his back, chest and abdomen, 178 on his arms and hands, 94 on his thighs and 176 on his legs and feet. This is a total of 556 scars. Corn's friends say he has been bitten over 1,000 times. The only remedy for bites Corn uses is a local application of turpentine. He always carries a bottle of this first aid. If the wound is a large one, he visits a doctor, but he never lays off work more than a few days from the most serious attacks of dogs. Several years ago the Humana Society stopped the use of wire lassos in catching dogs. This did not have much effect on Corn, as he then resorted to catching dogs with his bare hands. He has no fear of rabies or hydrophobia. He has been bitten numbers of time by rabid dogs and has never suffered ill effects. "Corn is the best dog catcher in the country," said Poundmaster Cox, "I have been in the business twenty years and have made a study of catching dogs, but Corn and his fearless best anything I ever saw." OLD HEN SITS ON CLOCK. When Alarm Goes Off She Tucks It Up Under Wing and Won't Give It Up. Pittsburgh, Pa.—Mrs. A. L. Stuchell whose hobby is 'Light Brahma chickens.' Believed she had hit upon a sure remedy for broodiness when she put an alarm clock, set to ring intermittently, beside a persistent setter. When the alarm started the hen was annoyed for a moment and then tucked the clock under a wing. There, without ruffling the bird's equality, it clattered until run down. The hen seemingly concluded it had acquired title in the clock, for when Mrs. Stuchell tried to recover it she received a resentful peck. AGE 40, NEVER KISSED WOMAN And Woman A. Brown Says He Never Let Woman Kiss Him Either Mineola, L. I.—The world's most phlegmatic man has been found. He is Warren A. Brown a bachelor real estate dealer of this city, age about 40. Quoth Brown on the witness stand: "I never kissed a woman in my life. "I never hugged a woman. "I never allowed a woman to kiss or hug me." Brown so testified in defending himself against a $10,000 heart suit brought by Joseph St. John, a palish instructor. St. John alleges Brown stole his wife's affections. POTATO GROWING IN BOTTLE Strange Curiosity is Unearthed Near Geneva, Iowa Geneva, Ia.—A strange, vegetable curiosity was unearthed here this week. It was nothing less than a potato that was growing inside of a bottle. The vine leading from the tuber extended thru the neck of the bottle and the bottle had to be broken to get the potato. Nothing like this was ever discovered in these parts before. The freak was discovered by Ben Snater and given to Walter Overton, Jr., of Geneva. A woman is never too good to be true. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, JULY 26, 1919 OLFACTORY SENSE OF BEES HIGHLY DEVELOPED Dr. N. E. McIndoo Teus of Experimental Work Showing Likes and Dislikes. In a pamphlet recently issued by the Smithsonian institution, Dr. N. E. McIndoo of the Bureau of Entomology states that the sense of smell in honey bees is highly developed, and that it also serves as a sense of taste. In some instances the bees seemed to distinguish a marked difference in the taste between certain mixtures which the scientist himself could scarcely perceive. Unfrequently but little experimental work has been performed to determine whether insects have a true sense of taste or gustatory sense, as it is termed in science, but the present author has endeavored to show that bees have likes and dislikes in regard to foods, and has made a careful study of the structure of the sense organs on the mouth-parts of the honey bee. In his experiments he used something like 5,500 bees, mostly adults, all of which were kept in their normal state. Even in the higher forms of life it is difficult to distinguish the sense of taste from that of smell, and in his experiments Dr. McIndoo has discovered that in the bee these two senses cannot be separated at all. In fact, the rense of taste proves to be merely one phase of the olfactory sense, or sense of smell. Dr. McIndoo began by feeding the bees several substances from which five classes were chosen to study the ecte: repellant, sweet, bitter, sour and salty substances, the four latter being representative of the attributes of human taste. The experiments show that bees like honey best of all foods, and that they are able to distinguish the differences between various kinds of honey; that they have likes and dislikes, and that they can distinguish in foods differences not perceptible to the writer. Oil of peppermint, which is agreeable to man, is distasteful to bees, while on the contrary another substance which the experimenter did not like seemed to please the bees. It was also discovered that the bees must first eat more or less of certain foods before they can distinguish between them, indicating that they have a true gustatory sense unless this discrimination is made possible by means of the olfactory sense. During his experiments he also investigated the tactile sense, or the sense of touch of the honey bee, and believes that with the organs for that purpose the bee is enabled to mold in uniform thickness the wall of all its cells. He also investigated the manner in which bees eat liquid foods by capillary attraction and by a pumping force which they possess. Solid substances, which they cannot eat at once, are dissolved by the application of saliva. He discovered that many solid substances, which are not previously smelled by the bees, release odors through the physical or chemical changes brought about when they are dissolved by saliva. Dr. McIndoo and the rew other scientists who have fed insects foods containing undesirable substances have observed that they refuse such foods after eating more or less of them. From this observation the other authors have concluded that insects can taste, although they have not ascertained whether they possess sense organs anatomically adapted for tasting, nor have they considered the role played by the sense of smell in these responses. The author's experiences during four years convince him that the olfactory sense of the bee is much keener than that of man. Finally, he believes that their olfactory sense is highly developed, and that it serves them as a sense of smell and taste combined. WHY THE CAT LANDS ON ITS FEET IN FALL Tail Plays an Important Part When Animals of Their Kind Leap and Climb. An ingenious model was constructed some time ago why a cat in failing always alights on its feet. The imitation cat consists of a cardboard cylinder, with four rods stuck in it for legs, and a tail devised on similar principles, and the object is to show that a cat's faculty of falling on its feet depends on the rotation of its fall. Some interesting information on this problem is given by the superintendent of a zooological garden, who has made several experiments. The faculty of always falling on the feet is one which is especially developed, he claims, by climbing and leaping animals, in which category are included all the cat tribe, monkeys, squirrels and rats. The instinct is born in them and the act of twisting is performed without any conscious effort on the part of the annual. The opinion is that "we tall plays an important part in the turning process. "All tree inhabiting monkeys have long tails," says the authority, "and there is not the slightest doubt that the tall is of the greatest possible advantage to all climbers in helping them to turn. It also acts as a good balancer." Somewhat Mixed. The childless parson sought to cheer the parent, of an overflowing household. "My man you must learn to be contented," he said. "Mouths are never sent without bread to fill them." "Mayhe you are Right," said the parshonier, "but the mouths are all sent to our house and the bread to youra."
