Scott Scores Big. WASHINGTON, D. C.—On invitation of Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, this city, the great World War general, Marshal Foch of France, who is on a visit to this country, visited the University, last week Wednesday afternoon, and was honored with the degree of doctor of laws. Marshal Foch in responding to the greeting of Howard University said: "I find it very easy to express my sentiments of gratitude for the cordial reception accorded me, when I recollect the commendable and indispensable service rendered by the Colored troops upon the soil of France. I knew well that Howard University contributed largely in the war. I knew also that through the love and energy of this great institution of learning as manifested for France, that the soldiers actuated by these impulses gloriously fought in France. Although our green sod now covers the bones of many of your beloved comrades, France shall not forget the magnificent efforts of Howard University, and the costly sacrifice made by the Colored soldiers, the shedding of their blood upon the altar of freedom shall mark an important epoch in the history of human action. I can assure you that the French people are lavishing both love and care upon the tombs of the American soldiers whose bodies are new in France." The University grounds were beautifully decorated with the tri-colors of France and the stars and stripes. A memorable occasion! THE GAZETTE The fifth annual convocation of the School of Religion of Howard University opened a three-day session on the 15th. Prominent divinies and notable race uplifters from all parts of the country were in attendance. Nomination of Henry Lincoln Johnson, Republican national committee man for Georgia, to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, was rejected. The fight against him was led by Senator Watson, Democrat, Georgia, and it is understood that there was no record vote. "Dick" Bundy "Loses Out," WASHINGTON, D. C.—The Senate has confirmed the appointment of Rev. Solomon Porter Hood, of Trenton, N. J., as minister to Liberia. This is the position that Mr. Richard Bundy, secretary of the Liberian legation for the past twelve years, aspired to and was a candidate for. He is a son of Rev. Chas. Bundy of Cleveland, O., now an A. M. E. church pastor at Youngstown, O. Elected Magistrate Elected Magistrate PHILADELPHIA, Pa. — Amos Scott was elected a city magistrate at the recent election. Although many white women are said to have cut Scott, our voters throughout the city gave him solid support, voting "plunkers." Elected Councilman. MORRISVILLE, Pa.-John W. Lewis, who was elected to Borough Council as a representative from the First Ward, is the only Afro-American in this county to hold a public office of this kind. He was the regular Republican nominee and his vote was within six as large as that polled by both of his opponents.

NEW YORK CITY.—The libera New York weekly, The Nation which has so long been demanding complete equality for the Afro-American, and which, recently published a new chapter in the history of crimes against the black republic of Haiti, now congratulates President / Harding on his courageous speeches in the south. It condemns, however, in an eloquent editorial, the President's reference to "social equality." This unfortunate utterance, in the opinion of The Nation, "played into the hands of all who justify any, discrimination against the Negro." This very reservation, about social equality, is used it points out, to excuse unending discrimination, humiliation and actual physical torture; and adds that even if Mr. Harding had in mind inter-marriage only, and even if he had said so, his words could have done great harm, since the laws against inter-marriage in the south serve only to promote immorality, led in by southern white men: "We may rest assured," says the Nation, "that if racial intermarriage is socially unwise and racially destructive, nature herself will ... control it without men's having to resort to crime to check it." The editorial quoted appeared in The Nation of Nov. 16. PRIME SPORT NEWS By Allen Harrison Dorsey. PORTLAND, Ore.—Harry Wills of New York, heavyweight, knocked out Denver Ed Martin of Portland in one round, here last Friday.

Glancing over the record of the players lined up with the Tate Stars' ball team last season we note that of Robert "Red" Bonner. Two days after he appeared for training last spring, the writer felt that Bonner was the "class" of the sandlotters who "tried out." He soon "Bod" Bonner (special request)' and was highly appreciated.—Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Simpson of Dayton visited his parents of Roanoke.

PROGRESS OF EDUCATION In the South Among Our People—Some Very Interesting Statistics Of Oklahoma's 50,570 Afro-American children eighty-seven per cent were enrolled in 1920-21. Eleven hundred and sixty-one of our teachers were employed, and something over $854,000 were spent in building schoolhouses for our children in this same year. West Virginia has appropriated for our educational and elemen-sory institutions $1,200,000. Texas will spend next year $400,000 for our education, and North Carolina, $700,000, of which $36,000 will go for the supervision of our schools. The Rosenwald Fund spent $28,000 for our school-houses last year. This resulted in securing buildings that cost $2,000,000. Of this amount our people paid out of private funds $500,000 and private citizens among local white people paid $250,000. The Rosenwald Fund has set apart $622,000 for its work next year. Nothing is more indicative of progress in our education in the South than the development in recent years of public summer schools for our teachers. For instance, Louisiana has sent practically her whole corps of Afro-American teachers to summer schools provided by the state. Last year 2800 of our teachers attended summer schools in North Carolina. Of these, 1400 improved the grades of their certificates and benefited thereby financially. This year North Carolina made provision for more than 3000 of our teachers in state summer schools. gained the earnest good will of the fan-flock who called him the hardest working man on the team. Bonner started out as a catcher but was switched to first base in mid-season, where he made good with a bang. In the last forty-two home games he had 214 put-outs, 32 assists and six errors for a grand fielding average of .976. He was at bat 126 times, scored 24 runs and banged out 39 hits for a grand batting average of .323. Tates and Cooks Battle. A small-sized crowd saw the Tate Stars and Cook Billiards in a hard-fought. battle at Tate field, Sunday, which the scorer called a tie, but which the Tate management claimed, 6 to 0. The game was booked at the last minute on Saturday. Tackle Bundy intercepted a Cook forward pass and with some great interference by McCreary and Cralhead ran sixy yards for a touchdown. This was disputed and an argument ensued. Fisher and Lewis starred for the Cooks while Cyrus and McCreary did the best work for the Tates. Great Compliment! Paid the "Central Body" of Ward 11. And the Good People Who Made the Great Fight for Better Living Conditions in the Ward — "Bouquets and Brickbats". The local daily paper statement, the first of the week, as to the Central Political Organization's spending more than any other in the ward 11 councilmanic fight is the biggest indirect compliment that has been tendered the decent colored people city, by any of the local papers since the election. The "Central Body" represents the outraged element, the people who are still determined that the moral atmosphere of the ward must be sterilized. $87.05 was spent; $1,100 received. This amount represents the hard-earned dimes, quarters and dollars, in the main, of mothers, fathers, daughters, sons, all poor, all desirous of improving their status, all anxious that the ward be made as clean as the lives they wish to live. Good folks your hats should be off to the Central Body! Not a cent was contributed by a single individual who did not have on his heart and in his mind the ridding of the ward of the influence of certain vile influences. The Central Body is due particular credit for reason of the fact that its membership is composed of representatives of all of our real uplift bodies, churches, clubs and fraternal organizations in the city. And we call the attention of all the people of Cleveland to the FACT that, though its membership permeates entire Cleveland, it did not endorse but one candidate in the recent election and that its expenditures were made in the promotion of the ONE idea: "The Central Ave. district IS vile. We want cleaner conditions, we believe that Harry C. Smith will represent the cleaner people." To All Persons Voting in Wavd Eleven. The supporters of Hon. Harry C. Smith whose ballots were not properly cast, or were opened and read, or who were not permitted to vote, or who were in any manner shown disjourtesy, or who saw any irregularities at the polls on Nov. 5th. '21, are requested to come to Saunders' Hotel. No. 2366 6. 55th St., between 3 and 6 p., any day, where their complaints will be heard and properly attended to. Nobody's interests were really advanced other than all of the people of that (ward 11) vicinity. They gave of their scant earnings to promote the Holy Word: "Clearliness is next to Godliness." Their workers worked and faithfully; and gave gave! unstintingly of their time, and as freely of their money as the dull times would permit, and they are not through praying, nor are they unwilling to give and yet give that their children may not be submitted any longer to absolute vice rule. As to the other talks we simply mention that the Republican ward-leaders in ward 11 were 812-750 for organization purposes, and will suggest that the good people of the Central Body were organized of themselves and for Mr. Smith and decency and that the money expended was poor folk's dimes. --- The waits of a Fleming before County Prosecutor Stanton, last week Wednesday, and those of a Fleming and "Starlight" before Asst. Police Prosecutor Novarto, on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, MEAN SOMETHING! Why these desperate public efforts to get "a bill of health" at this time? Do you know? Well, they do! And there are others who know, too. Do not be impatient, readers, we will all know before very long. That election on Nov. 8, "21, especially the part of it that took place in ward 11, is going to get an "airing" such as this old town of ours has never known. And this "airing" is going to shake it to its very foundation, too. We are not going to be hurried into anything, either. "Be sure of your foundation and then build" is our motto. We are about ready to build! The local division of the U. N. I. A. held a capacity meeting in their large hall, near E. 59th St on Central Ave. Sunday evening, Rev. Perdue was the speaker of the evening, Mrs. Little, an officer of the local, in an address gave a surprising amount of information concerning so-called "100 per cent, Americans" now in Germany and other countries spreading propaganda adverse to our people of the U. S. She placed particular stress on the fact that among them is a daughter of a Republican U. S. senator high in the councils of that party. Mr. D. U. Mills appeared before the meeting bringing the Hon. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS A Native White Southerner Outrageously Treated By Virginia Educators Because of His Efforts to Help Our Elaine, Ark., Victims. (Special to The Gazette) JERSEY CITY, N, J.—Prof. R, T. Kerlin of the Virginia Military Institute wrote the following appeal to the governor of Arkansas in behalf of the innocent colored men of Elaine, Ark., "convicted" and sentenced to be executed: "Before sending these colored men to execution will you not take the matter into your private chamber and give it an hour of earnest consideration as before the Eternal Judge!" so called humane southerners go, they take with them this keeping the colored man down. They seek to take their poison with them all over the world. These infamous hypocrites must be fought. Their sheep-clothing lies must be exposed. For writing this humane appeal to a southern governor the board of visitors of this institute declared his chair vacant. So often we hear well-meaning men say that the best people of the south are "fair" and "just" toward colored people and that they constitute their "best friends." If both races have friends in the south they should be the heads and managers of the educational institutions, but here in Virginia we have a fine white man being driven out of his position because he dared to plead for justice for colored people. The south as a whole is the worst spot on the globe. Fair-minded white men who advocate justice will not be tolerated in the south. Hypocrisy, lying and sham constitute the assets of those who are straddling the fence in their attempts to get the colored people satisfied with southern treatment. The public and private policy of the south is to "keep the Negro down." There is in the south a boastful spirit of superiority and lordship of the colored people and only those colored people can acquiesce in this policy or who will cowardly keep their mouths shut and not condemn it. The most inferior people on God's earth are the white southerners who are known for their brutality toward colored people and lying propaganda to deceive the world about the colored race. The leaders in this keeping the colored race down are politicians and preachers of the south. If there was a mustard seed's amount of Christian brotherhood among the white ministry of the south the violent conditions now prevailing there could not exist. The young white child born into the world in the south is taught at its home that the Negro is inferior and he must make him feel it. Hence the present generation is worse than the last. We were on a Pennsylvania dining-car when a southern man with a colored girl nursing his children was kept out of the dining-car by this man because he said: "In the south we do not permit Niggers to eat where we eat." The steward of the dining-car insisted that the girl come in but he would not permit her to do so and food was sent out to her. Everywhere these Harry C. Smith's thanks and voicing his appreciation of their whole-hearted support of his recent candidacy for the council in ward 11. The association announces Sunday school classes for the young, beginning after Thanksgiving. A Nmas collection-box was installed and quite a goodly sum is expected to be recured from it to aid in trimming a tree for the youngsters of the vicinity. The tree meals for the unemployed have been discontinued for the present, and the winter charities of the organization will be directed toward adding the poor in securing clothes, etc., during the winter. These people are real upfitters. Brickbats and Bouquets Brickbats and Bouquets. The statement of a local "try-weakly" (appears occasionally) to the effect that President Harding and U. S. Senator Willis sent Councilman Thos. W. Fleming congratulatory letters on his alleged "re-election" is not true and we exhibit it as another evidence of the overburdening load of rottenness existed in ward 11. It was at Terre Haute, Indiana, a few years ago, that they rounded up a crooked mob of politicians and sent (among the rabble) the mayor, a judge, his son and a number of their satellites to the state penitentiary for long terms. And we remark while passing that some folks recently from Terre Haute were powerfully interested in carrying ward 11, this city, Nov. 8, '21. Press dispatches say that a Judge C. W. Robinson, of Houston, Texas, in his charge to a new grand jury, ordered an investigation of the Ku Klux Klan in his bailwick. In the meanwhile, speakers high up in the councils of the Maschke, "Fitz," Tom and "Star" aggregation were openly charging the Kluckers with being actively engaged in politics in Cuyanoga county. The judge's politics are Democratic. We don't know IN UNION IT IS STRENGTH THE COPY FIVE CENTS Hell! ERLIN'S CASE therner Outrageously eated cause of His Efforts to Help Ark., Victims. so called humane southerners go, they take with them this keeping the colored man down. They seek to take their poison with them all over the world. These infamous hypocrites must be fought. Their sheep-clothing lies must be exposed. The south as a whole is Ku Klux, so far as Negroes are concerned when it comes to manhood rights and citizenship privileges. Many white men of justice and fairness are driven out of the south because they speak for the recognition of the colored race as MEN! These abominable wretches live illicitly with the most depraved of colored women and by use of money and other means seek to seduce the best of colored women, and yet in public they work against the race and do all in their power to keep it servile. The south must be driven to change its course. Its present attitude is leading to bloodshed and violence. The administration of laws in the South is a faction and this is why the Ku Klux has such a hold there. They whip and drive out white people of crime which the law in the hands of the unjust rulers would not touch. Law and order have flown in the South to distant realms. Life and liberty are menaced at every turn without any protection. The Negro is considered as a thing that can be killed, cheated, robbed and cursed, and that without any fear of being punished for it. The whole South is one seething hell for Negroes and this hell must be exterminated or those who now maintain it as such will suffer some of the tortures they have been inflicting upon colored people. (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd. what is the politics of the local bunch. "When the devil was sick, The devil a monk would be, When the devil was well, " A devil a monk was he." We call attention to the fact that the "Turbulent, Tumblebug" has ceased his bombastic braying and in "refutin" along other lines; he is shedding crocodile tears over a statement by somebody marvelling that an eminently respectable person, now deceased, could overlook his physical repuissance long enough to enter into any sort of an alliance with a creature of his calibre.

NOVEMBER 26,1921 The "antics" of the Flemings and "Starlight" Boyd in the county prosecutor's office, last week, and in the police prosecutor's office, this week, have been most amusing indeed. Somebody seems dreadfully worried. Why? We have been too busy (in politics) for many weeks to congratulate our good friend, Editor John Mitchell of the Richmond Planet, on the good work he did in leading the fight (of our people of Virginia) on the "illy-white" foolishness of that state. They were "snowed under, good and proper." Good! Are you sorry Henry Lincoln Johnson and Perry W. Howard did not agree with you? Now comes Major T. C. Turner of the U. S. Marines who insists that 2,500 Haitians have been killed during the period of American occupation and that 1,132 of them were killed "in action," from Oct. 1, 1919 to Oct. 1, 1920. These statements were made, recently, to the U. S. Senate Committee which is investigating the matter. It is a long time coming, in this particular case, but the truth will get out eventually. Mark our prediction. BUILDING GIVES EMPLOYMENT President Harding's unemployment conference declared that the problem of the jobless was largely one for each community to handle, and mayors and other local officials were urged to take up the matter at once and extend what relief they could to the men out of work in their own localities. Apparently the advice had its effect, for it is officially reported that in 27 northeastern states there is a record-breaking flood of building contracts. In one month 8,000 contracts have been let, with a total valuation of almost $250,000,000. The public works committee of the unemployment conference is still maintaining offices in Washington, and will publish reports from time to time on the building situation. "FITZ," MASCHKE, "STAR" AND TOM. The defeat of Mayor Wm. S. FitzGerald of this city, at the recent election, means that right after the first of the year "Boss" Maschke's power in local politics will be gone for at least two years and with it, thank the Lord, the political domination (in ward 11 of this city) of "Starlight" Boyd. At that time the latter's co-workers, Syd. Thompson, John Fulton and their kind will also "walk the plank." So the good people of ward 11 have only to eliminate "Tom" to fill their cup to overflowing and have everything they started out to get about six weeks ago. This is still possible, too, we feel sure. Let us work slowly, carefully, patiently and well. CUM GRANO SALIS The people of this country are, and should be, on their guard against giving undue weight to utterances originating abroad and having a tendency to affect public opinion in this country. We give every man credit for honesty of purpose until we have reason to do otherwise, but at the same time, we must make allowance for the usual human prejudices and frailties. When, for instance, we read the statement of Lord Northcliffe that in case of a war between Japan and the United States, Great Britain would be found fighting shoulder to shoulder with the United States, we recall that one of the principal occupations of Northcliffe is the saying of things that will embarrass Lloyd George. We are inclined to believe, and would like to feel certain, that Northcliffe is right in his statement, for such an assured fact would make impossible any conflict on the Pacific, but we are not accepting it as true merely because Northcliffe says it. We would like to know what Great Britain has done and is going to do with regard to renewal of the treaty of alliance with Japan. The United States has no aspirations in the Pacific that conflict with the rights of any other nation. We do not envy any other nation whatever success it may achieve. We covet no territorial possessions. We seek peace with all the world, and, therefore, will fight a war on neither the Pacific nor any other ocean unless forced by aggression from abroad. We shall have no trouble with Japan, unless, perchance, Japan may be tempted to pursue an unjust course under the impression that she will have the backing of Great Britain. We shall be pleased to see Lord Northcliffe's expressions of friendship given a substantial meaning by action on the part of the official spokesmen of his country. HARDING CONSISTENT After scrutinizing with microscopic eye the address of President Harding at Yorktown, in an effort to find something that could be construed into a partial endorsement of the idea of a League of Nations, the New York "World" quotes that portion of the President's address in which he spoke of "a new call for co-operation." Commenting upon that portion of the address the "World" says, "Woodrow Wilson has never gone further than that." In its insatiable desire to find some commendation of the fattuous League of Nations scheme, the "World" is easily pleased. It professes to see no difference between President Harding's desire for cooperation and President Wilson's determination that this nation should make "the supreme sacrifice." The "World" can see no distinction between co-operation, which means the free meeting of free minds on the one hand, and the subordination of a nation to a super-state on the other. In answering questions propounded to him by members of the Committee on Foreign Relations of the Senate, President Wilson admitted that under the provisions of the League of Nations Covenant, if agreed to by the United States, this country would be under a compelling moral obligation to go to war in accordance with a decision of the constituted authorities of the league. Anything that would be a compelling moral obligation upon the United States would also be, for all practical purposes, a legal obligation, for this nation will not repudiate any obligation which in its own eyes is binding upon it morally. The attitude of the Republicans in the Senate and of President Harding was that this country should not be so bound—that this country should be free to act upon every international problem in accordance with its best judgment as to the merits of the question when and where it arose. This nation stands today as it has always stood, ready to co-operate with any and every other nation in the promotion of the world's welfare. It never has shirked and will not shirk any responsibility that comes to it either under the obligations of a contract or the obligations of humanity. But there is a difference between fulfilling our obligations as we see them and fulfilling them as they may be interpreted by others. Mr. Harding insisted when he voted on the league covenant that the United States must be the judge of its international undertakings. There is nothing in his speech at Yorktown that varies from this declaration of independence in the slightest degree.

In a controversy with Police Chief Smith, aired in Sunday's News-Leader, Safety Director Sprosty is quoted as follows: "If I were trying to interfere with the chief in the conduct of his office I certainly would have had something to say when my nephew, Patrolman Elmer Sprosty, was sent from the first precinct to the third, one of the toughest in the city, where he met his death at the hands of a gang of gunmen."

"My mother couldn't stand the way she—" and "My father gave him a good scolding for the way he treated me and—" Never have mothers-in-law and all the other "in-laws" played such a part in the stories of matrimonial quarrels as they do in domestic relations court to-day and in most cases it all resolves back to an unsuccessful effort to beat axorbitant rents and cramped housing conditions by the newlyweds starting married life with parents or other relatives. Mrs. Julia McGuire, motherly buffer in the path of divorce in the Chicago domestic relations court and as competent an authority on marriage and its difficulties as can be found to-day, gave this as her observation. Day after day Mrs. McGuire listens to unhappy wives and husbands. Year in and year out she has watched the never-ending procession of estranged couples file past—broken wives, sulky wives, mean and misunderstanding husbands—and just folks who are temporarily "in bad" with each other. "And I want to say that the biggest reason that I know of for the unhappy marriages of to-day is attempts of young couples to live with their parents," she said. "Hundreds of cases come to me every week of my life with the same story. It costs too much to start a home of their own, they say, and their parents invited them to come and live with them. Then came trouble. "Of course, in many of these cases the principals are simply youngsters who never should have tried marriage until they had enough money to pay their own way. Many girls and boys, looking at life through rosy dreams should be spanked instead of married. "I am not blaming the mothers and fathers. Few of us are diplomats and we all think our sons and daughters perfect and, unfortunately, try to fight their battles. "There comes the break in these kind of marriages. At the very start mothers will talk and fathers will advise. Brothers and sisters will take sides. The finish is too often here with me. "My advice to young people who want to marry is to wait until they can start a home of their own." To illustrate, Mrs. McGuire heard four cases waiting for her ministration. There were 50 in an outer office and the stream of sad-eyed women and unhappy men never seemed to slacken. There were almost as many deserted wives and husbands with grievances in the domestic relations court as there were laughing, whispering couples in another office getting marriage licenses. In the first cast, the wife was a girl 19 years old. The man was 22 years old and looked as though he was just getting on familiar terms with a safety-razor. Mrs. McGuire looked at the card. "Now, Gertrude, what is the trouble?" she asked the wife, who looked like a high school girl about to tell teacher her algebra troubles. "I want to be supported," said the girl. "How can I, when I haven't got a job," said the boy, "I just got back from California. I was going to get a good job this morning, but I had to come down here." "Have you any money," asked Mrs. McGuire, kindly. "A little, my mother gave me," he replied, "I spent most of it for some new clothes I needed." "Have you and Jack ever lived all by yourselves?" Mrs. McGuire asked the young wife. "No," she answered. "We lived with his mother. Now I am living with my mother." "What do you mean we 'never lived alone?'" demanded the outraged husband. "How about that place on Twenty-fourth and Michigan?" "One week was all and you know it." snapped the girl. "Yes, and I had to pay the rent." Glycerine For Alcohol. CHICAGO, Ill.—A method of making flavoring extracts non-alcoholic was proposed to the American Chemical society annual convention recently by Dr. M. De Grote of the University of Pittsburgh. He favored substituting glycerine for the alcohol in these extracts, and said glycerine made not only a better but a cheaper extract.

Similar Namos Found t) Designate Lithium Minerals WASHINGTON, D. C.—If the casual reader ran across the words lepidolite and ambygonite in a theological paper he might mistake them for names of tribes of the Phillistines; if he found them in a paper on fossil skeletons he might suppose they meant some kind of armored reptiles that ranged the swamps of the Cretaceous period. A companion word, spondumene, though it ends with "mene," would mean nothing to him. Lepidolite, ambygonite, and spondumene are the names of the most abundant lithium minerals—minerals that are used as sources of the salts of lithium, one of the chemical elements. Lithium suggests a mineral water of salts used for the treatment of rheumatism. But that is a different story. A large percentage of the lithium minerals mined is made into lithium for use in storage batteries of a certain type. Lithium salts and lepidolite are added to glass "batches" to reduce the viscosity of the melted" to reduce that is to make it flow more freely. Lithium chloride has been used to some extent in fireworks and signal lights, to which it imparts an intense red color. Most of the lepidolite mined in the United States is taken from a deposit near Palo, San Diego county, Calif., and most of the amblygonite is mined in South Dakota, where it occurs in masses weighing hundreds of pounds. Practically all of the spodumene produced in the United States is mined in the Black Hills in South Dakota, where it occurs in immense crystals, some of them more than 30 feet long. Lithium minerals amounting to 6-287 short tons, valued at $115,000 were produced in the United States in 1919—more than ten times as much as was produced in any year before 1916. AMAZING ESCAPE. English Lad Has Close Call When He is Sucked into Water Intake. LONDON.—Percy Silk, 10 years old, was playing along the bank of the Thames river in Englan recently when a companion gave him a playful shove and he slipped into the water. He struggled and fought to regain the shore but a whirlpool some distance away drew him irresistibly. Suddenly his head struck against some hard object and he was rendered unconscious. A man saw the boy disappear and at once concluded that he must have been sucked into the intake pipe, 200 feet long and three feet in diameter, through which water is drawn for the cooling apparatus of the electric generating plant. The water was at once shut off and employees of the electric company hurried to the water circulating chamber to recover the child's body. Great was their amazement on removing the cover of the chamber to be greeted by a lusty shout. The boy, little the worse for the trip through the intake pipe, clambered out and walked away as if such adventures were mere commonplaces to him. WILLING MOVIE STARS. New York Scrubwomen Succumb to the Lure of the Screen. NEW YORK—"Maybe I'm no Mary Pickford, but take it from me I have the makings of a great moving picture actress." This expression of opinion by a woman who scrubs floors for a living was made to one of the staff of the district attorney's office in Brooklyn, now investigating the so-called "Moving Picture Schools." District Attorney Lewis has found persons form all classes, including scrubwomen and mothers of large families, have succumbed to the faring advertisements of these schools. The women were accepted without "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled.

NEW YORK—The 10,000 bond messengers, clerks and other employees in the financial district are to be card indexed, in order to reduce the chances of additional bond thefts, it was announced by the Association of Stock Exchange Firms. Within the past two years securities and cash estimated at $3,000,000 have been absconded by dishonest messengers, it was said. The card-index system will tabulate the character, personal habits and associates of all messengers, and is designed not only for the apprehension of the guilty, but for the protection of trustworthy messengers. Autos In England. LONDON.-Great Britain has 650,000 mechanically propelled vehicles according to figures compiled in London. This averages one to every 120 persons. The United States averages an automobile to every 16 persons and has nearly 12 times as many machines as does England. Tailor Robs Women. BROOKLYN, N. Y.—Held without bail, Eward Koch, known to the police as "the measurer," is charged with having stolen from $50,000 to $100,000 from the dressing rooms of women he measured for gowns which he falsely said had been "ordered" by their husbands. THE LIGHTEST METAL It is Magnesium, Made In United States. Only Since 1915. WASHINGTON, D. C.—The lightest metal now known that remains comparatively unaltered under ordinary atmospheric conditions is magnesium, which is only two-thirds as heavy as aluminum. Magnesium is a beautiful silvery-white metal that has been made in the United States only since 1515 and is now made at but three plants. It is known to comparatively few people and to most of these chiefly as a silvery powder used for making flash lights in photography. It was imported from Germany for this use for many years. During the world war large quantities of powdered magnesium were made in United States for use in star shells designed to illuminate battle fields at night, as well as in special shells designed to show in the daytime exactly where the shells containing it exploded. The white cloud by day and the brilliant white pillar of fire by night—both striking features of the battle fields of the world war—were produced by the combustion of magnesium. Magnesium in massive form, as sticks or rods, is used to deoxidize other metals in foundries and is a constituent of alloys. More magnesium is now used as a deoxidizer or scavenger in metallurgy than for any other purpose, but its employment in alloys is increasing and may eventually become the largest one. An alloy of magnesium and aluminum is used in making castings for aircraft engines and parts of airplanes. The skeleton of the British airship R-34, the first dirigible to cross the Atlantic, is an alloy of aluminum and magnesium, and the yacht, Resolute, the defender of the America's cup in the races in July, 1920, as well as the alternative defender, the Vanite, carried gaffs made of this alloy. The demand for metallic magnesium has slackened since the war, however, and in 1919 its production in the United States amounted to 127,405 pounds, valued at $247,302, a decrease of 55 per cent in quantity and 60 per cent in value from 1918.

TO VISIT REMOTE ASIA Primitive Man Started From His Traditional Home on Roof of the World With Sheep and Goats—Origin of American Indians May Be Solved. NEW YORK—Just how man started from the cradle of the race in Asia and migrated over the wide world, following in the tracks of the wild beasts, is to be one concern of a great expedition on which the American Museum of Natural history is preparing to concentrate all its ologies. A stupendous subject is this distribution of life over the globe and so it will be approached from many angles. The geologist, the expert in mammology, the deliver among the human vestiges of the past, are all to have part in it when the program is completed. It may take ten years to finish so great a task, but it will be well worth all the cost if real light is thrown on one point: the origin of the aboriginal inhabitants of the American continent. This expedition will be the outgrowth of the recent quests of Roy C. Andrews of the museum staff in the wilds of the Far East. He has seen parts of China and Mongolia which no other white man, probably, ever beheld. And he has already made much headway in plotting the great zoological migration from the eastern to the western hemisphere. Such is human vanity that we think of man as always the leader when life moves to a new environment. But according to the reading of Nature's archives brought back by this young explorer, the four-footed races were the original pioneers, and our remote ancestors merely followed them in their treks, fearing that they lose these walking meal tickets. Consider the sheep and the goats. Both were identified with man before the dawn of civilization. Their flesh and their wool or hair, and in the case of the goat the milk, have for untold centuries made them of great economic value. One can hardly separate the sheep from the goats in considering them as aids to mankind. The Asiatic expedition headed by Mr. Andrews obtained the skins of several kinds of goat-antelopes, such as the goal, the scor and the takin, which are closely akin to the Rocky Mountain goats—which are not goats at all, but goat-antelopes. He also brought back some remarkable Asiatic deer, clearly resembling our own elk, which were called wapiti by the American Indians when the first European settlers reached this continent. The whole story of mammalian migration may be included in the circle of a Big Horn's horn. The primitive man, low-browed and almost inarticulate, to have started from his traditional home on the roof of the world, moving with the sheep and the goats who were lured by pastures new upon the steeps. At last came the jumping off place of Asia. Whether we assume that the passage from Siberia was made over the ice or on a land bridge which existed at that time makes little difference, as in any event it is not difficult to account for the winter crossing of Bering Strait, which to this day is only 30 miles in width. Once the sheep and the goats and the other creatures and that uncutth biped man had arrived, migration still continued along the great mountain chains of the Rockies and the Andes, according to this hypothesis. We find certain tribes of the western Indians tending their flocks and herds as they did in the days of Coronado and making blankets and ponchos, Crude looms of the Navajos, of the Kurds, of the old Peruvian and of the tribes of Afghanistan produced textiles which in many instances show methods that are amazing alike in the handling of the wools. There are many links to be found before the chain of evidence of the common origin of man is complete, and yet they are likely to come to light as a result of the world-wide quest now proposed in the name of science. The anthropologist may be able to show that the North American Indians, by the clue of their high cheek bones, are really neo-Mongolians in deerskins, as has been long suggested but never proved; the archaeologist may find in remote Asia still other means of visualizing kinship of the Egyptians, the Chinese and the Aztecs. And yet it seems that in the realm of zoology alone there is potentially conclusive proof of the migration from the Himalayan plateau to the shores of Europe and America.

CHICAGO.—The romance of Irene Buysse and Edward James Pennypacker, which began five years ago when Mr. Pennypacker followed Miss Buysse to her home, forced an introduction, gave her $12,000 and married her, has come a step nearer destruction. Mrs. Pennypacker, who sued for divorce in Chicago, now has brought action in Los Angeles to restrain her husband from disposing of property here. And the husband, who resides in the coast city, has entered a counter divorce suit. The Los Angeles judge before whom the wife's restraining plea was taken has issued an order against Pennypacker, commanding him to show cause why he should not be enjoined from disposing of the property. This property is real estate in Pasadena. Its value is in tens of thousands of dollars. In her divorce bff, Mrs. Pennypacked charged unfaithfulness and drunkenness. She named a "Miss Buck" of 928 Wilson ave., as Pennypacker's companion in Philadelphia and Chicago. Pennypacker, in his counter suit, charges his wife with cruelty. The complaint says that on two occasions she has sued for divorce, naming a bevy of momen, thus harrassing and annoying him. Once, in Philadelphia, the complaint states, she deliberately drove an automobile in which both were riding into another machine, wrecking them both, because she was angry at her husband. NOVEL BUNCO GAME. Schemers Succeed In Collecting $40 For Old Newspapers. PITTSBURGH, Pa.-City detectives yesterday were investigating an unusual bunco game in which two unidentified men secured $40 in money from the Duquesne restaurant, 1027 Liberty ave, through the assistance of a messenger boy. Approaching the messenger boy on the Ninth st. bridge, the men instructed him to deliver a suit case to the restaurant, and to collect $40. In the meantime, one of the men called Miss Martha Rankin, cashier of the restaurant, and over a telephone represented himself as being one of the owners of the establishment. He instructed her to receive the suit case and pay the charges. This Miss Rankin did, and the messenger boy, returning to the Ninth st. bridge, handed the men the money. The suit case contained old newspapers. Champion Butter Cow.
