Tribune—Sir: Your editorial on Santo Domingo and Hayti in a recent issue contained the following remarks: First: "The Haytians for more than a century have been possessed of a seemingly uncontrollable desire to post haste back to barbarism. First they slaughtered the white and then the half-bloods." Second: "They have reduced to a waste a region which the Fench had made the richest area of the West Indies." Third: "Yet when we went into Hayti with good reason, about the same time we jumped into Santo Domingo with no reason at all." A nice apology to your South American critics! Permit me, however, to say in the interest of truth—the motto of your newspaper—that your first statement is unjustified. I challenge any white American to show any barbarous characteristic that can not be shown to exist in like proportion in the United States of America. White men that had shown no mercy for their black slaves met their fate. Those that showed mercy received mercy—as an example, Mrs. Bayou de Libertas, who emigrated to the United States, shipped by Toussaint L'Ouverture. At no time were half-bloods slaughtered, although history reveals that General. Rochambeau of the French army, offered 500 louis (10,000 francs) to General Dessalines, our first president, to do so. There was a civil war between certain elements on account of economic interests. As to your second assertion, statistics show that exports in 1789 under French rule amounted to 226,046,000 pounds of various produce. In 1894-'96, during the war, they fell to 9,172,401 pounds. In 1903-'04, under Haytian rule, 258,964,240 pounds were exported; in 1915, the year of the occupation, over 327,000,000 pounds. Do these figures show retrogression? If we have not produced more and better it is because the social forces at work in other parts of the world have been a barrier to our further progress: to name one—prejudice of color in the United States. Your third remark requires the opinion of legally trained minds. I can, however, safely say that the best minds in this country and abroad do not agree on the subject. The occupation can be justified only as a precautionary measure during the war, in the event of a German victory, for the protection of the Panama Canal. --- THE GAZETTE Randolph 7621 Americans are unfortunately very little informed about affairs concerning both Santo Domingo and Haytit. The Tribune's editorial betrays ignorance or a disregard for history. Let me remind you that it took sixty-one years for the United States to recognize the Haytian Republic. The slave oligarchy prevented it during those years when help would have been most welcomed. To profess such a desire after 110 years should arouse suspicion. Let the truth prevail, Mr. Editor, and a great many problems in the world could be solved today, and among them the Haytian problem. Jean Larroche Doings of the Race Dr. Walter G. Alexander was recently re-elected, to the New Jersey Legislature from Essex county. He is the father of that state's civil rights law enacted, last year. James G. Cotter, Esq., of Chicago, was appointed an assistant U. S. district attorney, last week. J. C. Thomas, Jr., of N. Y. City, was given a similar position, a few months ago. The Atlanta, Ga., City Council's ordinance prohibiting the two races from "attending the same place of worship" was vetoed by the mayor, last week. A check for $500 was sent by the Postmaster-General, last week Tuesday to Walter Ambrose, mail messenger at Lake Charles, La., who, single-handed, fought off mail-bandits and in doing so was shot through the stomach. Despite his wounds the messenger pursued the robbers some distance, firing four shots and delivered the mail to the train intact. As to ignorance the last published U. S. census of illiteracy shows there are far more white illiterates in America than blacks. As to poverty the same authority shows there are many more whites in almshouses than Negroes. As to crimes, we have no satisfactory statistics, but such as we have do not show the Negro a criminal race.—Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., editor of the Christian Recorder, in a recent speech delivered in London, England. Mrs. Amanda Limbrick (white) who died recently, left John R. Tucker, long in her employ, $10,000, and the income from $3,000 for the care of a Scotch collie. At its death, the $3,000 is to be divided equally between Tucker and the Mohawk & Hudson River Humane society, $1,000 is given to the A. M. E. church, also the income from $5,000; Mrs. Tucker and two nieces and Walter Hilyard are given $-000, each, and Mrs. Mary J. Jackson, $500, all Afro-Americans. The value of the Limbrick estate is $200,000.

Breaks Three Ribs DENVER, Colo.—Harry Wills easily had the best of the fight with Jack Thompson of Tulsa, at the stockyards stadium, here last Wednesday, which was stopped by the referee in the sixth round, owing to a claimed foul. No decision was given. Prior to the unintentional low punch, which resulted in Thompson's refusal to continue, Wills landed three stiff body punches just over the solar plexus. The terrific wallops are believed to have fractured his ribs. "Big Bill" Tate and Wills are scheduled here, Dec. 8th. "No all-America team will be complete unless it includes Duke Slater," So says Coach Rockne of Notre Dame. "No better tackle ever trod a western gridron." That is the opinion of all the experts in the west. "This fellow Slater just about beat my team single-handed in the only contest we lost," continues Rockne. "Realizing the great strength of Slater, and the fact that he knew how to use that strength to intelligent advantage, I had four of my players massed around Slater throut the game. Occasionally, my boys would stop the big tackle, but those times were the exceptions. Usually he made such holes in my strong line that Fullback Locke would go thru for long gains, often standing straight up as he advanced with the ball—Cleveland (Daily) Press. The Tate Stars football team defeated the Bedford Tigers, Sunday at Bedford, 21 to 18. Hall, Gaskin and McCreary starred for the Tates while Moore and Porter featured for the farmers. The Thompson-men scored two touchdowns in the final period, one being a sensational 70-yard run from kickoff by Gaskins. Craighead kicked all three goals. This is the sixth successive win by the Tates. Reports from Chicago are that Rube Foster is willing to resign as president of our baseball association and devote the most of his time to the affairs of his American Giants club, except that he would like to assume the new position of business --- Strong for Slater!

As we stated once before, a new president should be head in fact as well as name. Given the proper authority, we do not know of anyone who could fill the bill of president and help the league to continue its growth in favor of our fans better than Ira F. Lewis, sporting editor of the Pittsburgh Courier. And coming nearer home, D. U. Mills of this city, a baseball veteran and a man who knows the game from "a to z." could hold the position with credit to all. At all events the coming meeting should be an eventful gathering.

C.—Untiring efforts of friends of members of the 24th Infantry, who were "convicted of participation in the Houston riots of August, 1917, have resulted in the passage of a resolution in the House of Representatives, calling upon the Secretary of War to investigate the case from beginning to end. Carnegie Foundation N. Y. City—The first college for Afro-Americans to be admitted to the benefits of the Carnegie Foundation, for the Advancement of Teaching, is Fisk University at Nashville, Tenn. It was voted in, recently, by the board of trustees of the foundation in their annual meeting at 522 Fifth Ave., this city. ATTORNEY FRANCIS H. WARREN Still Winning Cases and Securing Good Fat Judgments for His Clients. Detroit, Mich.—Atty. Francis H. Warren has been very successful, this year, as usual, in winning cases. He won two thousand dollars from the House of Good Shepherd for wages of a girl they detained there illegally. He also won a twenty-five hundred dollar judgment in the case of Rukhlik against the American Car and Foundry Company, in the face of the most stubborn opposition by the company's attorneys. This was the second trial Atty. Warren had won in this case, the verdict in the first being twenty-eight hundred dollars. It required eight days to try the case. He has also won quite a number of smaller judgments from one to five hundred dollars each and a settlement against the D. U. R. for Matt Allen, a member of the race, who had his arm injured by the negligence of the company. He secured for him three thousand dollars for this injury. These are only a few of the many good judgments secured this year by Mr. Warren. CHICAGO GIVES UP! Sick and Tired of Losing Riot Sults Illinois Anti-Lynching Law Good! CHICAGO. Ill.—The first three of twenty-one suits against the city, arising out of damages sustained during the race riots here, have been won, and according to Alderman Henry L. Flek, these three have been enough to demonstrate the fact that the Illinois Anti-Lynching law is clear on the point of damages suffered during riots or other disturbance. With a view to saving Hon. Edward D. Green the city the cost of further suits, he has introduced in council a resolution directing the law department and, the finance committee to arrange a settlement with the other plaintiffs. The three cases which have been tried have resulted in verdicts against the city ranging from $3,000 to $5,000. All the plaintiffs were represented by Attorney A. L. Williams, Like the N. A. A. C. P. Dyer bill, the Edward D. Green Illinois law is very largely a copy of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Anti-Lynching law. Applies to Day Coaches Only. PADUCAH, Ky.—A Pullman car is not a railroad coach within the meaning of the Kentucky statutes, Judge William Reed held, recently, in the Circuit Court here, in sustaining a demurrer to an indictment against the Pullman Palace Car Co. charged with violation of the "jim-crow" law. The indictment was returned because several members of the race have frequently rode in Pullman' coaches between Paducah and Louisville. As construed by Judge Reed, this state's separate coach act applies only to the regular coaches of a railroad train. An appeal was granted. "Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable in those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature."— SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Notice of Contest Filed With the City Council Councilman Thos. W. Fleming's Alleged Election from Ward 11 on Nov. 8, 1921, to Be Thoroly Aired and Sifted—Ballots to Be Preserved, Etc. That the political ("organization") slight-of-hand artists" in ward 11 on election day, Nov. 8, "21, have "something coming to them" is but indicated in the following notice of contest—that is all. The Central Body, particularly its workers who did such valiant service for many weeks prior to election—and all day on election day, have been "busy as beavers," night and day, ever since with but one object in view and that every voter in ward 11 knows and the "enemy" fears. They—the Central Body workers—are simply determined that justice shall be had, that the victory they and many others feel sure they won shall not be kept from them, and that the guilty shall be punished just so far as it is possible under the law and the evidence." We are not referring to any particular person but making our comment, in a general way, to fit the situation (a result of the ward 11 contest) left by the alleged election in that ward, last month. Slowly and carefully and thoroly will the work be done because "haste makes waste" and there is no good reason why plenty of time should not be taken... There may be little "set-backs," at times, but they will avail the enemy absolutely nothing in the end. The leaders of the Central Body, both men and women, are not the kind that are called "quitters." And the editor of The Gazette is proud to be one of them. "The first gun fired" follows, it being filed with the City Clerk, the clerk of the City Council. Wednesday at 3:45 p. m., by Mr. Smith who was accompanied by Eugene R. Brown, president of Ward 11, Central Body and J. B. Dennis, a member of the finance committee of that organization: Notice of Contest! Cleveland, O., Dec. 7, 1921. To the members of the City Council of the City of Cleveland. Honorable and dear Sirs: Your petitioner, Harry C. Smith, respectfully represents to your honorable body: (1) That at the municipal election held on the 8th day of November, 1921, he was a candidate for councilman from the eleventh ward in the City of Cleveland, Ohio, for the term beginning January 1st, 1922. (2) That at said election he received more first choice, second choice and other choice votes than any other candidate and was duly elected to said office. (3) That in the various precincts of said ward, errors and fraud were committed in the count of the ballots, votes were unlawfully and fraudulently cast and unlawfully and fraudulently deposited in the ballot boxes and legally qualified Metropolitan Life Ins. Co Metropolitan Life Ins. Co. NEW YORK CITY—That the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. does not encourage our people to take their policies and, prefers not to write up Negroes at all, has again been disclosed by Mr. Woodward, vice president of the company, in an interview with James H. Hubert, executive secretary of the New York Urban League. The latter approached the company with a view to making openings for members of the race. Mr. Woodward admitted that over 12 per cent, of the company's policyholders were Afro-Americans and stated that to employ Afro-American agents would only stimulate more business among the race and this was not desired. "The lay forces us," said he, "to give the same policies to Afro-Americans we give to white, while the rating, due to the high mortality among the former, is almost twice as great." The rating statistics are wrong in many instances, made so purposely in the south. Bombed Twice! DENVER, Colo.—All the windows were blown out and holes were torn in the walls of the home of Charles K. Starr, 2112 Gilpen St., here, when the second bomb was exploded in a recent effort to drive Starr and his family from their home. The bombing culminated a long neighborhood row over the occupancy of the home by Starr and his family. A peculiar fact in connection with the bombing was that it took place on the eve of the day the house was to be sold to a white man. Starr, his wife and his 10-year-old daughter, who occupied the house, escaped uninjured. Mrs. Libble Williams and Mrs. Grace Willis Thompson of Earle Ave., were summoned to Chicago by the death of Mrs. Mary Willis, an aunt. IN UNION IS STRENGTH COPY FIVE CENTS gun! UN FIRED!" Filed With the City uncil ming's Alleged Election from 1, to Be Thoroly Aired and to Be Preserved, Etc. electors were prevented from voting; that it was, therefore, incorrectly declared and certified by the deputy state supervisors and inspectors of election of Cuyahoga county, Ohio, that Thomas W. Fleming had received a greater number of first choice, second choice, and other choice votes for said office than any other candidate, and that he was elected to said office. (4) That pursuant to the provisions of the law of Ohio, the election officers in the various precincts sealed the ballots cast at said election for said office, transmitted the same to the board of deputy state supervisors and inspectors of election of Cuyahoga County, Ohio, to be destroyed unopened at the end of thirty days, provided no contest of election is pending at the expiration of said time. (5) That said law of Ohio, further provided that if a contest is pending, then said ballots shall be preserved until the determination of said contest and that the parties contesting the same shall have the right to have said ballots opened and to have all errors corrected by the court or body trying such contest and that such ballots shall be opened only in court or in open session of such body and in the presence of the officers having the custody thereof. (6) Your petitioner further represents that by the provisions of the Charter of the City of Cleveland, the City Council of Cleveland, Ohio is the judge of the election and qualification of its members. Wherefore, your petitioner prays that this honorable body proceed according to law to hear said contest of election, to examine the records of the election, to receive any evidence bearing upon the issue involved, to count the said ballots and determine who is duly elected to the aforesaid office. Your petitioner further prays that appropriate action be taken to notify the board of State deputy supervisors and inspectors of election of Cuyahoga County, Ohio, that a contest for said office is pending and directing it to preserve said ballots until the determination of said contest. Respectfully submitted, Harry C. Smith. Harry C. Smith being first duly sworn, deposes and says that all the statement in the foregoing petition are true as he verily believes. Harry C. Smith.

DECEMBER 10, 1921 The N. A. A. C. P. could save about $10,000 a year if it were to reduce the "war time" salaries being paid its national officers. It has issued an appeal for "more members and more money." --- According to The Cleveland Gazette, organization of Cleveland chapters of the infamous Ku Klux Klan is under way. It recommends its readers to get a U. S. Army riot gun for their homes. Has the law ceased to have the power to protect peaceable citizens in Ohio?—N, Y. Age. No more so than in New York state. The condition in both states, and the north in general, is practically the same. Therefore, it would be well for all of our homes to be in possession of a riot gun. Protection means home production, and home production means more employment for Americans. You cannot buy foreign goods without giving employment to the foreign workman. We have just enacted a restrictive immigration law to keep out the cheap labor of Europe and Asia. Now we need a restrictive importation law to keep out the product of that cheap labor. Americans first. The people of this country are looking to Senator Medill McCormick, chairman of the U. S. Senate Committee now in Haiti on an official investigation, to bring back all the facts and not a report "colored" to suit the U. S. Navy department or its marines. Two high officers of the marines have said that 2,500 and 3,500 natives, respectively, have been murdered in Haiti since the unwarranted American occupation of that island. How many Haitian girls and women have been outraged in, "true southern style" no one has announced. That, too, should be known. Considerable comment has been made upon the disproportionately large number of English journalists who have been employed to write special articles for American newspapers during the conference on limitation of armaments. While it has been conceded to be entirely proper and desirable that the viewpoint of British writers be placed before American readers, yet it is not a little surprising that a great many of the larger American newspapers are giving an excessive amount of space to the articles written by foreigners. Criticism of these concessions to the foreign viewpoint are being accentuated by rather bitter comments made by British writers through the American press on the attitude of France on the necessity of maintaining a considerable French army for the protection of French national interests. It may be safely asserted that the desires of France in this particular meet the hearty approval of most of the American people. There will be resentment, therefore, against the effort of certain European writers to prejudice the United States against France. There is no reason whatever to suspect the motives of the French spokesmen. France can have no desire to maintain a large army for other than necessary self defense. France is laboring under the burden of an enormous debt and in her own interest will reduce her military expenditures to the minimum consistent with national safety. Moreover, France could have no possible reason for maintaining a large army for aggressive purposes. German is the only nation against which a large French army might be directed and there is nothing to be gained by a French attack upon Germany now. Germany is apparently on the verge of bankruptcy. There is nothing Germany possesses that France could take that would be an asset after it had been secured. The greatest hope France can have is that the German people will sufficiently revive their industries as to enable them to pay off their separation and other obligations which they owe to France. Since it is apparent that none of the allied nations need have any fear of menace to their rights through the maintenance of a large French army, it may safely be assumed that the French people themselves will see to it that no unnecessarily large military force will be maintained. The burden of that military force rests upon the taxpayers. Through control over national policies they will insist that the military expenditure be made as light as possible. LABOR GUARANTEES RESULTS. In receiving bids for the reconditioning of the Leviathan the Shipping Board found that the Boston Navy Yard had submitted figures about $1,800,000 below that of a competitive private firm. But there developed a technical objection to the acceptance of the bid inasmuch as a navy yard cannot legally give a guaranty against exceeding estimates, as a private contractor can do. To overcome that difficulty and bring the job to their own establishment the 2,500 employees at the Boston Navy Yard propose to create a special fund through assessments against their wages as a cash guarantee that the cost of reconditioning the Leviathan will not exceed the estimate of the yard. The suggestion is a novel one to industry. It means that the men are insuring their customer against themselves. It means that the workers on the Leviathan, if the job goes to Boston, will labor at a maximum of efficiency in order that the guarantee fund shall not be forfeited but shall be returned to the men who contributed toward it. The action of the men is a sign of the changing attitude of wage earners towards the industry in which they are employed. It is apparent in many other lines of work. The men are learning that unless the industry thrives their own source of income is going to be cut off. They know that it cannot thrive unless they give a full day's work for a full day's pay. A new sense of responsibility among workers, and a better appreciation of the risks borne by capital, will do more than anything else to bring industrial contentment in this country. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods. People who sell Goods Can make Money. People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE. REMARKS ABOUT ADVERTISING Advertising is as necessary an expenditure as the payment of taxes or rent.—W. Atlee Burpee. Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard. Nothing except the mint can make money without advertising.—W. E. Gladstone. Printer's ink will make more of the public wear a pathway to your store. See? 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." FIGURES LEAVE DIAL Curious Effect in Dark Room With Luminous Dial. A curious effect may be noted if a watch with a luminous dial be moved slowly in the plane of the dial in a room illuminated only by red rays, such as a photographer's dark room. The figures seem to leave the dial and lag behind it as the watch is moved to and fro. This effect is most pronounced when the red light is properly adjusted according to the brightness of the luminous figures and when the eye has become fully adjusted to the light. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, DECEMBER 10, 1921 BIG WASTE IN SKIMMED MILK Cream Not the Only Desirable Or Nourishing Constituent of Milk. RICH IN FOOD ELEMENTS Compound of Skimmed Milk and Vegetable Fat Now Being Canned and Sold—Powdered Skimmed Milk Also on the Market. Although the United States has about 23 million dairy cows which produce an aggregate of about 87 billion pounds of milk annually, a large percentage of our population—in many instances the people who need the nourishment it supplies most—don't get enough milk. Of all the foods available, milk is the only one that comes anyway near supplying all of the elements essential to sustain the human body in normal health. As every schoolboy knows, milk contains fats, protein, carbohydrates and mineral salts, all of which are necessary for the growth and repair of animal tissues. In addition, scientists have lately learned, it contains the important elements called vitamins, which in some mysterious manner promote growth and help to keep the body in health. Yet only a little more than half of the 87 billion pounds of milk produced yearly is used as human food in the form of milk, cream, butter, cheese, buttermilk, etc. According to Government figures, a little more than 43 per cent of the total production is sold to consumers as whole milk; calves get more than four per cent of the whole milk; four per cent is made into butter; five per cent is made into cheese; nearly four per cent goes into ice cream; about three per cent is condensed or evaporated. Less than one per cent of the skimmed milk is used as human food while a little more than 36 per cent is used for feeding hogs and other live stock, or thrown away; in some of the big cities, it is declared, thousands of gallons of skimmed milk is dumped into the sewers. This is a terrible waste for, though skimmed milk is by no means so nearly an ideal food as whole milk, it is rich in important food elements. In fact, it is analogous to meat from which the fat has been removed. That is why one authority speaks of it as "liquid lean meat"; he declares it would be just as wise to eat the fat of meat and throw the lean away as to remove the cream of milk and discard the skimmed milk. Creameries buy only the butter-fat and turn the skimmed milk back to the producers, who usually feed it to their hogs. It is an excellent food for these animals, yet experts tell us that its relative value for the purpose is only about 50 cents per hundred pounds. For human consumption its value is three and a half times as great. Therefore, if milk producers could find the right kind of market for all of the skimmed milk returned to them by the creameries it would add something like $800,000,000 to their incomes annually. Consumers should be educated to the fact that cream is not the only desirable or nourishing constituent of milk. Skimmed milk, supplemented with other foods, is a nourishing, valuable article of diet. The product could be bottled and sold as well as whole milk if consumers only understood these facts and would buy it. A compound of skimmed milk and vegetable fat, practically equivalent to the whole natural milk, is now being canned and sold to some extent. Skimmed milk reduced to a dry powder and sealed in airtight cans is also on the market. These are practically equal to whole milk for cooking and other purposes. The preparation of these products as well as other enterprises aiming to make more milk available for food purposes should be generally encouraged. CHINESE AND JAPANESE. Statutes Governing Thelr Exclusion From This Country. By the provisions governing the immigration and citizenship of Asiatics, Chinese immigrants have been excluded from this country since 1883. A number of Chinese students, travelers, teachers and officials, however, are admitted every year. Section 2169 of the U. S. revised statutes limits naturalization to aliens being free white persons and to aliens of African nativity or descent. Under this section the courts have denied naturalization to Afghans, Hindus, Malays Chinese and Japanese. Children of these races born in the United States, however become citizens under the constitution. GUN IN PROPELLER SHAFT. Wartime Invention, Now Perfected, is Efficient Weapon of Offense. A gun to fire through the propeller shaft of airplanes was designed by American engineers to be used by the United States army in the World War. Like several other valuable wartime inventions, however, it was not developed to a practical stage in time to be used in actual combat. The gun's jacket fits inside the shaft of the propeller. The gun which has a bore of one and a half inches hurls its arm-piercing projectiles right through the shaft. A VAIN CONCLUSION He—Then you think men are consoited. Why?

Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim that their race "always will be discriminated against." The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimination, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, degrees are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.' The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however much we continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. We are selling stock at $25 per share. Let us send you our easy terms of payment. Write at once or call.

CHICAGO, Ill.—About 11 o'clock on New Year's eve, the conductor of a crowded castbound train in Illinois hurried from coach to coach, calling for a doctor. Finally, after he had traveled nearly from the rear to the front of the train, he found a man of medicine, homeward bound from a professional call. The conductor led him back through the train to where a woman passenger was suffering and in urgent need of medical attention. With borrowed coats, shawls, blankets, etc., the doctor, with the help of the conductor and some of the women passengers hurriedly made an enclosure about the woman. Shortly before midnight and just before the train had crossed the boundary between Illinois and Indiana, the doctor came out and announced that a boy baby had been born. The train rolled on, across the Wabash river into Indiana, but before it had proceeded far in that state and before the New Year was more than three or four minutes old, the doctor announced that his patient had given birth to a second boy baby. Many strange things happen in this funny world but you will hunt far and you will hunt long before you can find a pair of twin brothers, who, like these, were born so far apart, so to speak—one in the state of Illinois and the other in the state of Indiana, one in 1919 and the other in 1920. They'll have something remarkable to talk about with their friends, their children and their grandchildren as long as they live. ODD CEREMONY. Christening Is Held On 14th Floor Girders of Skyscraper's Frame. NEW ORLEANS.—Fourteen stories from the street, on a slender girder of steel, Ole Peterson, structural iron worker, held his five months' old son while the Rev. William Reese performed a christening ceremony. Fifty members of Iron Workers' Union No. 58 were named godfathers. They occupied positions on nearby girders. Below the christening party there were no floors, and through the net- work of steel could be glimpsed the concrete basement. The baby apparently was bored. Members of the union had suggested that it would be appropriate to have the child of a structural iron worker christened while his father was "on the job." The mother gave her consent, details were arranged and the child formally came into possession of the name of Weed L. Peterson. U. S. EMPLOYEES RETIRED. Given a Small Pension In Reward For Faithful Service. WASHINGTON, D. C.—After many years of hopeful waiting, Uncle Sam's old employees are being retired. Over 4,000 men and women who have served 15 years or more will now receive for the first time in the history of this country a small pension in reward for their faithfulness. Complaint is being made that the pension allowed is not sufficient to meet present-day living expenses; as a matter of fact this was not the intention of the retirement act, as it is supposed that the individual has saved something on his own account. From time to time more employees will be retired, and it is hoped that this law will work for the mutual benefit of the Government and its employees. LENDS PRESIDENT'S DAUGHTER DIME TO PAY CARFARE.

When he went to collect the fare from a young lady who had just got on she handed him a penny instead of the required dime. She was embarrassed at her mistake but was far more embarrassed when, after searching her purse she found that she did not have the necessary amount. "I am afraid I must get off," she said, "that penny is all I have." The conductor then gallantly offered to lend her a dime, which she accepted. A few days later the conductor received a dime with a letter of thanks written on White House stationery and signed "Margaret Wilson."
