What The Late President of Hampton Institute Said—What it Means to the Race Today—Northern Colored Voters! The New York Age in its issue of Feb. 21 contained a report of the Lincoln League written by Ralph, W. Taylor, Mr. Tyler severely arraigned the head of that league. His arraignment, if not true, would subject him to criminal libel and heavy personal damages. However, until it is disproved the thinking world will accept what he says. In the carefully prepared article, he has rendered great service to the lionic caper of the Lincoln League and they will well like independent and dignified citizens for those men who are willing to bring the Republican party back to Lincoln's ideal. Those men who are aspiring for the presidency just as well know it now that northern Colored men will vote only for that candidate who is man enough to respect his oath and be the president of every race in this country. 1930 Colored people of this country. Our purpose in calling attention to his estimate of the Lincoln League meeting on Lincoln's birthday, is to warn the country of this very dangerous spirit that is again showing itself in America. First, white men of all political parties are again pushing to the front the southern Negro of the grinning type to be the medium through which Negroes of America must seek recognition of the government, recognition of the subsidized educational funds, recognition for government appointments and recognition as a citizen of this country. The Negro (that will cringe before a white face and make a monkey of himself in order to get a job, is dangerous and the Negro that their men are forcing to the front. Their jobs are forcing Negroes, in their opinion, must acknowledge and proceed upon the basis that they are inferior to the whites of this country and as such must be satisfied with the scavenger crumbs that white dogs don't desire. A many Negro is persona non grata in the councils that determine the status of the Negro race. Second, it is the purpose of the rejectionary Republicans of the William Howard Taft kind to keep the colored race in the south under southern white domination and not grant the Negro any consideration the south objects to. If then, such Colored leaders as will accept this attitude can be found, the Republican party will hear them and make them the dispensers of patronage in order to muzzle the man who is a man but desires a political crumb. Third, all of the forces of Negro uprift headed by whites, are openly advocating the Hampton and Tuskegee spirit. The late president of Hampton Institute said: "Negroes should merit their rights but not demand them." In other words, it is the prerogative of white men, only to demand what the constitution assures; every citizen but Negroes must be satisfied with what white men think they have merited. To make this spirit the national rule, every avenue for the obtaining of men to foster Negroism, the South is hedged about with this atmosphere. The race has been informed by actions, if not by words, that there are millions to make cringing servants but not a dollar to make unstanding men. The Lincoln League, with its monkey capers, has been chosen as the organization through which the Republican party will function so far as the Negroes are concerned and at the head of this must be a southern sycophant who can grin his way in. The Republican party need not be too sure the country will give them another lease power. Their action, the president notexactly the president of the people. The Republican party, as managed now, is as far away from the Lincoln attitude towards colored people as the North is from the South. We solemnly warn U. S. Senators, who must be elected this year, that Colored men of the North are not going to follow the id- FRESH OHIO NEWS What Our People Are Doing Each Week-Church, Personal, Social, Lodge, Literary and Musical-Marriages,Deaths,Etc. loic cepers of the Lincoln League and they will wolf like independent and dignified citizens for those men who are willing to bring the Republican party back to Lincoln's ideal. Those men who are inspiring for the presidency just as well know it now that northern Colored men will vote only for that candidate who is man enough to respect his oath and be the president of every race in this country, granting the same and identical rights the constitution gives to every citizen. Fourth, it should be understood now that a few man offices and appointments will not purchase the colored vote. We don't care a rap for appointments. We want the rights and privileges of American citizens. We want them in every state of the Union, want them in Georgia upon the same basis as we have them in New York. Fifth, Colored men in states that vote and court their votes are going to make it known to their state political leaders that they will not stand for office-hunting southern Colored men to determine the policy of any government toward the colored people. We in the north can fight our own battles. FRESH OH Written by 'The Old Reliable Throughout What Our People Are Do Personal, Social, Lod cal—Marriage CADJZ.—Wm. West, who has been sick with the "foul" is able to be out. Rep. R. R. Beetham will not likely have any opposition for the fourth term from Harrison Co.—Miss Martha J.

CORRESPONDENTS must mail all letters for publication at their main postoffice sufficiently on Monday (or Sunday) of each week to have them reach The Gazette office on Tuesday morning, and always write also, their names and that of their city or town on the outside of the wrapper about returned copies. Unless this latter is done, proper credit cannot be given you. Lists of names, wedding presents, etc., obituary notices, inquiries for relatives and advertisements of all kinds, including items announcing entertainments to be held in the near future, must be paid for in advance at the rate of 20 cents a line, six words to a line.

She has returned home.—Miss Burns spent Saturday in Cincinnati.—Rev. Leleous, of Wilberforce, preached at the A.M.E. church, Sunday. and at present there is very little to complain in matters touching citizenship. It is in the South that the Colored race is hard pressed. We are unwilling to leave the rank and file of the Colored people in the South to the mercies of southern Colored office-seekers, for when these sycophants get their office the rights of the Colored people in the South are forgotten and besides these same cringing slaves can be sent over the country to advise Colored people "to trust the white Collar." The best thing that can be done for the Colored people in the South is to deliver them from office-seeking politicians and the cringing school teaching element that does nothing but beg. According to Mr. Tyler there is no place in the Lincoln League for the northern Colored man. There should be no place for any Colored man, if what he says is true. Colored people of the North, prepare to maintain your own freedom, or the cringing southern Negro will jeopardize it. We must fight the iniquitous southern white "Hung" and the infamous cringing and grimming Negrotery. (Rev.) WM. A. BYRD. RETURN THANKS.

Washington, D.C., March 8, 1920 Editor Gugette, Dear Sirs: I cannot let go unchallenged the statement of Senator Reed Smoot, published in your last issue, that he did not report me to the school authorities for arranging a large mass meeting for the editors of the Messenger. It does me such gross injustice that I am forced to ask you to give this letter the same publicity that you gave that of the senator. If Senator Smoot will consult his files of Jan. 19th he will find that he did report me, and said that a "a loyal colored man" had given him the information. The complaint reached school headquarters the morning of the day that I was to preside at the meeting, and I was questioned about it. I explained my attitude in the master, and declared my intention of presiding and speaking, which I did. The leading white daily here, "The Evening Star," carried an account of the effort to restrain me in the issue of Jan. 22nd. Sean r Smoot says in his reply that he does not even know me. That makes his interference all the more inexplicable, for, without knowing me, he accepted the report of a Negro renegade, indicted and tried me, rendered judgment and passed sentence without my ever dreaming that he was thinking of me. The only part I, the accused, was to play was in the execution. Although I knew and know that he is a powerful senator, able to do me and mine much harm, should he choose, I could not surrender my rights in the matter and spirit to autocratic procedure. The senator should know that our race, race, race, race. Soil patriots, and that any Negro who is base enough to report one for standing for the rights of his people is base enough to lie. Hence, he should not call such "bootlickers" and vengeance seekers "loyal Colored men." I need not explain to any colored American that one who holds a position controlled by white people, as mine is, puts his all in jeopardy when he dares to fight the numberless discriminations we are suffering in this country we have served so well. I can feel the forces closing in on me now. Several white citizens have asked my removal because I recently made a speech, which was given wide publicity, in which I had armed resistance to the armed Negroes who are afraid to even ask for equal school facilities for Colored youth have openly boasted that I am to be removed the last of this year. If I am it can only be said that I am the victim of the un-bearable Southern autocracy that is entrenched here, and not for lack of efficiency as an educa- A QUARTER OF A MILLION! Washington, D. C.-At its meeting, held in New York City, Thursday, Feb. 26th, the General Education Board, founded by John D. Rockefeller, appropriated $250,000.00 toward an endowment fund of at least $500,000 to be used by Howard University for medical education, "the income from the appropriation to be made available for completion of the full amount." The Howard University Medical School is the only class "A" medical institution for the training of our physicians, dentists, and pharmacists in the country. Its students have free access for instruction to Freedmen's Hospital, supported by the government, which is the largest and most important hospital for our people in the world. The third annual Howard Convocation under the auspice of the School of Medicine Dr. D. Butler Pratt, Dean, will be held at the university, March 23, 24 and 25. Mr. and Mrs. Leroy Thomas, E. 71st St., recently received word announcing the serious illness of their son, Roy Lee, at Ft. Presidio, near San Francisco. Miss Steeph Thomas, a sister, left immediately for her brother's bedside. With her brother and two attendants, she left immediately on her arrival in San Francisco for Denver in a private compartment. Miss Thomas writes that the trip tired her brother very much and the very sick boy. Young Thomas has as a U. S. soldier in China, Japan, Siberia and the Philippines. Miss Thomas had recently returned from New York City where she took a special three months' course in chirropody, when she was called, to the coast. IN UNION TO IS STRENGTH THE COPY FIVE CENTS HIM! Thomas Insists for Reed Smoot Did rt Him arters and that he was Questioned—Black "Bootlickers"! tor. I have made extensive preparation for teaching, and entered it 18 years ago as a life work and I have been passed upon favorably by a number of competent educators. Regardless of risks of personal fortunes, whether in the school system or out, I shall continue to attack every wrong this great race is suffering. I am anxious to co-operate with Senator Smoot, or with any other American, who is willing to put the Prof. Neval H. Thomas merit system back into civil service so that the bright young Negro youth of the land will not have their little souls soured every time they make application to serve their government. Yes, I wish that when manly colored men go before a congressional committee, or the Supreme Court of the United States, they can have a luncheon in the public cafe at the capitol, the common-property of us all, a privilege accorded to the unworthiest white man in the world. This new discrimination was made at the very hour that brave black boys were dying in the trenches of France. As good deal was said about a book being placed in the library of Howard, but precious little about the savage mob that went there last summer. The little book was doing our race much harm, but the mob was evidently an efficient educational agency. Remember, Mr. Editor, when you come to Washington to aid in some constructive piece of legislation, do not to your own lunch room in our own capitol. Bring your lunch in your pocket. Respectfully yours. NEVAL H. THOMAS. DOINGS OF THE RACE John Hall, age 15, of Baltimore, employed as a delivery boy by a large grocery firm, was made to "cough up" a diamond and sapphire ring by a detective, last week. Richard A. Jackson, age 19, of St. Louis, has received notification from Congressman L. C. Dyer that he has been appointed principal candidate for West Point from his city, the examination to be held at Jefferson Barracks Mo. in Maych.

Tyler, of Columbus, O. who attended the recent meeting of the Lincoln League at Chicago, among other things had the following to say of it: The Lincoln League as now controlled, directed and manipulated is an organization in which the Colored men in the North are about as use-less a figure as would be the figure of Joseph in a picture of the Madonna and child. Roscoe Simmons' "annual" address was a continuous speech that began with the convening of the meeting at 10:30 o'clock Wednesday morning, Feb. 11th, and continued, with but slight interruptions, until the meeting adjourned, about 12 P. M., Thursday, Feb. 12th. His address was a continuous vaudeville stunt. When he introduced Chairman Hays, of the Republican national committee, Governor Rick Santorum, of the white men, he employed his customary minicity—his grimmaces, shimmy-swing of the body, etc—which "means nothing" to elicit laughter from the gallery in a meeting where seriousness ought to have been of the 100 per cent. variety. Even Governor Lowden, when he arose to speak, after Simmons' amusing preface to his introduction, remarked that he knew the audience would rather hear Simmons and that he himself would because he was "so amusing," he said, "the oisian whispered to me: "Can you beat it. A white man would rather hear foolishness from a Colored man than seriousness." * * * Simmons is using the League to further his own selfish ends. He secured a place on Chairman Hays' advisory committee on the assumption that he represented the League; that the League represented all the Colored people, North as well as South, and that he being the League's president it followed as a natural sequence that he was the leader of the race. * * * * The League accomplished nothing, unless it was to further the selfish ambitions of Roscoe Simmons, an assumed leader who will be discredited by Colored men in the North, and not a few in the South, for they will never subscribe to the leadership of any faker whether he hales from the North or South. It would be ever expects to amount to a continental—if it ever expects to elicit the support of and cooperation from Colored men in the North and Colored editors in the North, who have ever and always fought their southern brothers' battles, it must relegate to the rear aainted leadership. * * * * Chairman Hays, of the Republican national committee, and the various presidential aspirants, might as well understand now as later that the Colored men in the voting states stand for a higher type of a man. With Roscoe Simmons as the vaudeville entertainer—the Harry Lauder at the feast—the meeting was purely a "comedy of errors." If those in the inner circles—those who are bent on pushing Simmons on the race as a supposed national leader want more facts, all they have to do is to indicate it by forcing the hands of the Colored men in the North, for they can give the facts and figures—they have the "days and dates." Colored men in Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Illinois, Missouri and West Virginia will accept the challenge. I have no personal differences with Mr. Simmons—never did have. I am only referring to him now as a public man, and as an impossible race leader. * * * An acquaintance, extending over a number of years, with the individuals (Robert R. Church excepted) heading the Lincoln League and a knowledge of conditions caused us to refuse to accept the pressing invitations received to attend the recent Chicago meeting of the organization. We endorse the foregoing by Mr. Tyler. Rosecoe "Cackling" Simmons is anything but a "leader" and it is difficult for us to understand how Republican Committee Chairman Hays ever allowed himself to be so taken advantage of as to name him (and others) a member of his advisory committee. It certainly is a bad start for the Committee as far as our people are concerned. 2322 E. 55th St. Maurice Riese, Mgr., Friday, March 12, DOROTHY DALTON in "Other Man's Wafes."

Wilberforce, O.—Wilberforce University went "Over the Top" with its "Victory Rally," last week on Founders' Day, by raising $80,000 in one day. This is the largest sum that has ever been raised for education among our people in the history of the race. By the first Sunday in April, the sum is expected to be $100,000. Money raised by districts: 5th Episcopal, Bishop C. S. Smith, J. $3,500; 4th Episcopal, Bishop L. J. Coppin, $8,000. First Episcopal, Bishop James Tyrese, 10th Episcopal, Bishop Joshua H. Jones, $33,500 and pledges, $35,000. Bishop Jones, president of the trustees board and presides over the third district, is responsible for this great awakening among the methodists. Tuesday evening in Galloway Hall, the students held a "Mock Faculty" islation is introduced affecting Wilberforce University, please see that it remains in status quo until we have had opportunity to advise with you concerning the matter. We do not desire any legislation to be enacted covering Wilberforce University at this session. Yours, truly, Geo. H. Clark, Chairman, State Republican Advisory Committee. The success of this rally and "Victory Drive" means that Wilberforce will have a greater standing among the philanthropists of the country and if the race will continue to help themselves financially, some day soon, Wilberforce as an institution will command support and aid such as the University of Chicago or the Ohio State University receives. The attendance this year is over 900, the largest in the history of the school. Bishop Joshua H. Jones meeting. It was quite a success and was enjoyed by a large number of visitors. This was given to help the Founders' Day cause. Wednesday morning, Rev. J. C. Brewer, Covington, Ky, Rev. R. B. Smith, Orange, N. J. Rev. Joseph Gomez, Detroit and Rev. E. A. Clark, Columbus, were speakers. Dr. Scarborough presided at the meeting. On Wednesday evening, a fine musical program was given in Galloway Hall. This was perhaps one of the most interesting programs ever rendered on this campus. When reports were turned in there was great rejoicing. It meant a new day in the history of the A. M. E. Church. Speaking of the rally, Bishop Jones said to a reporter that "it was the greatest rally in the history of our people." The effect of the rally will put the institution out of debt and will be the means of greater expansion. It will make new and stronger friends for the school and relieve those who are its friends of the embarrassment of the attacks made upon the organic life of the institution. Another Big Victory Another big victory was won through the request of President W. S. Scarborough and put to an end further hostile legislation against Wilberforce University interests. His connection with the Republican State Advisory Committee of Ohio, made it possible. It was fortunate for the University that the president of the institution found himself so placed as to be of service to the school and thus protect it and increase its usefulness. The following letter put the enemies of Wilberforce to flight: einem “Hon.

REMARKABLE ARCHAEOLOGICAL DISCOVERY OF GREAT HISTORIC VALUE IN SCOTLAND PIT FILLED WITH SILVER BURRIED BY FREEBOOTERS DURING THE FOURTH CENTURY—NOW NATION'S PROPERTY Discoveries in Scotland of great historic value have recently been added to the Queen Street Museum in London. As the traveller to Edinburgh by the North British Railway approaches Dunbar he describes on his right far out to sea, the Isle of May; on his leit, in front, a green hill, a northern outlier of the Lammermuirs, cuts the skyline. This is Trapain Law, on the Whittinghame estate of Mr. A. J. Balfour, and here within the preincts of the fortified sites in which Dr. George Macdonald describes as "one of the most remarkable archaeological discoveries ever made in northern Europe." Excavations were commenced on this site some five years ago by A. O. Curle, keeper of the Queen Street Museum, Edinburgh, brother of James Curle, the excavator of the now famous Roman fort at Newstead. The fortified area, which covers some sixty acres, gives evidence of occupation at intervals during the first four centuries of our era. Recently the explorers struck a small pit which was filled to the brim with a hoard of battered silver vessels, the find being at once dated to the late fourth century by the occurrence of coins of the Emperors Valens and Gratian.

Wilberforce University Victory Rally Appeal To the Presiding Elders, Pastors, Members and Friends of the 3rd Episcopal District: Dear Brethren and Sisters: Greetings: The Wilberforce Victory Rally is now in full swing and its motion is majestic. There never was a movement more earnest, honest, determined and full of promise than this one. The Presiding Elders, Pastors, members and Friends, have shown themselves to be heroes of the first order. All Praise and Honor be to Them, God Bless Forever! Our Victory Rally was planned for two calls of reports. The first call was for Founders' Day, February 24th, the second and final call will be on, Saturday, April 3rd, at Wilberforce. Let us make that day famous in Negro history—let us cover ourselves with a shining glory that our enemies can never bed. At our first call for returns on Founders' Day, February 24th, you did the big thing. The heroes of the 3rd Episcopal District rolled up in cash $33,500.00. They also turned in $35,000.00 of bona fides pledges to be paid in by April 3rd, making $68,000.00 to be the final sum for the Third Episcopal District. The First Episcopal District has not as yet reported. They were expected to bring $9,000.00. We are hoping that they will do the best they can by the 3rd of April. The 5th District has reported $3,500.00. The fourth Episcopal District has reported $8,000.00 in cash, making a grand total of $45,000.00 in cash, and $25,000.00 pledges in process of collection, or a grand total of $80,000.00 in sight by April 3rd. This letter is an earnest appeal to the Presiding Elders, Pastors, Members and Friends of the Third Episcopal District to send in immediately all unpaid pledges and apportionments so that the full $80,000,000 will be on hand before the 3rd of April at which time we shall hold a business board meeting and call in the creditors of the university and pay the last farthing of her debts. This letter is also a message of thanks to all who have contributed to this big achievement, and an assurance to them that they are an assurance from further contribution except in so far forth that they may volunteer to continue to help us to swell the total amount to $100,000,000 on April 1, now in the field to roll up the total of $100,000,000. We shall then not only be able to wipe out all debts, but to start Wilberforce University upon a new career of usefulness. Yours in Christian Education, (Rt. Rev.) Joshua H. Jones, Bishop, 3rd Episcopal District. sarily he devoted to this precious treasure-trove before it has yielded all its secrets. Meanwhile its history is conjectured to be something as followa' The site at Taprain Lak had given evidence of having been at first perhaps a Celtic settlement under Roman rule. It no, appears that its latest inhabitants were "Saxon" pirates. The treasure just discovered seems to have been brought by these freebooters as loot from some rich Christian church in northern France and buried here for safety. The fact that the silver vessels are crushed and battered would seem to imply that they were regarded as more booty and intended for the melting not The vessels themselves include flags, chalices, platters, bowls, spoons and so on. They bear Christian symbols, such as Chi-Rho Alpha, Omega and lesvs Christvss and th. scenes portrayed in relief are mainly from the Bible history. One richly decorated flask, the gem of the collection, is an embossed杯 bearing a punctured inscription, Prymmaeosiaeis, which has not so far been known. It not yet be decale collection is the spoil taken from a single church or gathered from a number of different places.

MUST WEAR BELLS ASHEVILLE, N. C.-As unreasonable as it sounds, the city authorities have announced that every canine resident of this city must wear a bell during the next year. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO MARCH 13, 1920 Against The Mob and Lynch-Murder—The Work of a Member of The Race —Also Ohio's Civil Rights Law. Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio leg-islature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the law which has been very effective. Only one other state (Illinois) in this country has such a law and it is largely a copy of our Ohio law. Here it is— Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob trying to lynch another. 6284. Limitations of action. 6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy. 6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees. 6287. County's right of action against member of mob. 6288. County's right of action against another county. 6289. Non-relief from prosecution. Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a "mob" for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assailed withhips, clubs, missiles or in any other manner, may recover, as hereafter provided, a sum not to exceed one thousand dollars as damages from the county in which the assault is made. (93 v. 161 4.) Section 6281. A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars; or, if such injury result in permanent disability to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.) Section 6282. The legal representative of a person dying from injuries received from lynching by a mob, may recover of the county in which such injury occurred, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars damages for such unlawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children surviving such decedent, such sum shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7) Section 6285. An order to the commissioners of a county, against which such recovery has been, to include it with the costs of action, in the next succeeding tax levy for such county, shall be a part of the judgment in every such case. (93 v. 162 8.) Section 6286. If the decedent so lynched has minor children surviving him, the fund shall be turned over to a regularly appointed guardian. Such guardian shall administer such fund under the direction of the probate judge, allowing not more than five hundred dollars for counsel fees in the action for such recovery. (93 v. 162 9.) Section 6287. The county, in which a lynching occurs, may recover the amount of a judgment and costs against it in favor of the legal representatives of a person killed or seriously injured by a mob from any of the persons composing such mob. A representative, with hostile intent, at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10.) Section 6288. If a mob carries a prisoner into another county, or comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or dispurse such mob. (93 v 163 11.) Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v 163 12.) 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 an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public convenience 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. The next preceding section 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 Ohio Supreme court. 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. 3121 A POPULAR STYLE OF SCHOOL OR PLAY DRESS Pattern 3121 is here portrayed.

Then he came to New York to show people how to live on S5 a week. Pester attracts attention in his wanderings over the city. He hasn't cut his hair for thirteen years. "Why should I?" he asks. "God gave me this hair, and I know that if I do not mar the image some great reward will come to me." "Marriage is a bourgeon. When a man marries he cannot think clearly, I have no creed; 'belong to no church, I simply to good to others.'" Pester subsisted for the thirteen years of his exile on rough bread which he made himself and upon fruit. That was his only diet. Others can live on S5 a week by the same method, he asserts. Use DR.
