Rube Foster, president of our National Baseball league, in the first of four articles tells "what baseball needs to succeed" among us. He tells, of the hard climb it has had in getting our favor with the inexperienced men at the head of some of our clubs. He advocates that leading business men in the larger cities form stock companies with $10,000 capital to back teams in these places. In conclusion he states "that our men can be made to swing on individual club owners, but can be made to sit into our new plans and if not, we can get along without them." All of which indicates the "Old Master" is getting peeved at the criticism and independence of some of the club owners and is about to start swinging his war club. Record Crowd Sees Fight. DENVER, Colo. — Harry Wills, New Orleans boxer, was given the decision over Bill Tate of Chicago at the end of twelve rounds, at the stockyards stadium here, last Thursday, before the largest crowd that has attended a boxing show this year. It was Wills's fight from start to finish. He kept trying all the time. "This apparently scared and made no effort to do anything but stay the limit," Wills-played for his opponent's body and landed enough kidney and body punches to knock out half a dozen opponents. It looked as if the Orleans miller would surely have stopped "Big Bill" but he was either going away or hanging on close which spelled --- The Base Ball Co.

LEVELA Manager Jim Taylor of the Tate Stars, in a statement the other day, said: "The season of 1921 saw some great teams and numerous new men break in as star players but the Tate Stars got together in one season the best, collection of ball players on record. There have been better ball clubs but they were made up of men that had years of training. At the start there was a lot of raw material which we saw would make good if they would work and try to learn. Claude Johnson was the only experienced man in practice at the E. 40th St. gulley and some of the fans wondered what could be done with "that bunch."

Some of the supporters lost heart after the Bacharach Giants beat us so badly at the start, but quite a number told me they thought we would come around all right. I chiefly wanted my boys to see what a real team looked like. After the Backarach series we went on the road, losing two at Muncie, two at Cincinnati, broke even in four at at St. Louis. On this trip we got Branham and Cannady. On June 4th, we opened Tate field with the Pittsburgh Keystones, winning four straight, and out of the first 24 home games we won 16. During July, Brown, Perry, Johnston and Ewing joined us, rounding out a first class team. The boys showed what they could do when they beat Detroit's Cuban Stars, K. C. Monk, joined us, rounding out a being knocked for doubleheaders. We will start the 1922 season with Bonner, Johnson, Perry, Barnes, Johnston, Johnson, Brown, Leonard, Boyd, Branham and a few new men, that will make us as good as any club, and we expect to finish one, two, three in the race for the league flag. The fans of Cleveland should come to the front and support the owners and help make the Fifth City the greatest ball team in America. The impact season was good but it ought to be doubled, this year. So lets begin now to help make Tate Field the finest of all our baseball parks. Rest assured the boys will do their share." IS IT OF ANY USE TO CONTEN TEND, FOR RIGHTS? 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 that race is not used to mit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, "Negroes 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 prescriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have dled in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and correct denial of rights in our native land, to preserve long race discrimination, may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Maas.) Guardian. to the girls was thorny enjoyed The program was fine. They dined with Rev. and Mrs. W. L. Tolliver. Rev. Mathis preached for Rev. J. H.

The Cleveland Daily News of Dec. 9, '21, had the following: "Five candidates have hobbled up for the positions in the police prosecutor's office held by John A. Novario, who, gossip has it will not be retained by Paul Lamb, Kohler's director of law. "These candidates, all of whom, Novario, are lawyers of Italian birth, are lawyers of Italian Louis A. Perry, L. R Lanza, Allaandro Chiosteri, L. R Haurtino, Petitions in heath of some of them have been filed with Lamb." In years past, many complaints have been heard from our lawyers because the police prosecutor's office has had representatives of almost every nationality in Cleveland but ours. The above article tells the story of how the Italians and others are wide awake and fighting to keep an assistant prosecutor. Our people ought to be more open.

Him While on the High Seas—What the Judge Said BOSTON, Mass.—Beresford Howell, colored seaman, was awarded $400 damages in the case out of Dec. 3, 1871, George F. Poppe, captain of the schooner Lillian E. Kerr, who shot him in the back during a voyage from Jacksonville, Fla., completed here, about Dec. 1, '21. Howell sued for $5,000. Judge George W. Anderson decided Howell had not used a knife in an attack on Captain Poppe, which the latter said caused him to fire. "This shooting up of sailors on the high seas is the sort of indulgence by captains that should be paid for. You have got to show cause if you shoot defenseless, men at sea," the court said. The suit followed dismissal by a Federal commissioner of a charge of assault instituted against Howell by Captain Poppe. This is the case that the daily papers throut the country, made much of, saving the captain's wife had steered the boat while her husband was fighting off a mutinous crew, etc. It was a very pretty newspaper "story" but an untrue one.

The Shubbits presented Bert Williams in their new musical comedy "Under the Bamboo Tree" at their theater here, Monday night. A large crowd saw the premiere of the show and gave the great comedian an enthusiastic greeting. Williams, as the hotel porter, was more comical than ever and scored big hits with his rendition of the two songs, Gravitation and "Puppy Dog." The matching cast was good led by James Marlow, Eva Puck and Sammy White. Will Vodery, a member of the race, is composer of the score which also contains a number of hits. SENATORS REACH HAITI Begin Investigation of Charges That American Marines Have Killed 3,500 Natives CAPE HAITIEN—The special U.S. senate committee investigating the occupation of Haiti and the Dominican Republic by American troops arrived here last Wednesday afternoon. The reception accorded the committeemen was quiet but cordial, and after welcoming speeches they went to their hotel being followed by a crowd of nearly 5,000. No official hearing was given during the afternoon, but the committee received some written speeches. Wednesday evening there was a large social gathering at the Union Club attending a reception given by the club for the senators. A PALPABLE HIT: A Democratic orator was addressing a gathering in which he knew there were many Republicans. He felt that his arguments were unanswerable, and after he had concluded asked if there were any Republicans left in the audience. Overseed and addressed that he was still a Republican. "Why are you a Republican?" inquired the speaker. "Because my father and grandfather wore Republicans," was the reply. And if your father and grandfather had been fooled, what would SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS How the "Organization" Tried to Defeat This—"Starlight" Boyd's Sudden Death a Great Surprise When the notice of contest, which also called for a recount of the ballots cast for councilman candidates in ward 11, Nov. 8, '21, '21, was being filed, last week Wednesday, the clerk in the city clerk's office who protested rather strongly against receiving it (in the interest of Tom Fleming, of course) "because the city council had met. Monday night," showed plains that the "organization's case was to prevent, if possible, the filing of any such document, in spite of the state law that gave thirty days from election day in which to do so. This period did not expire until the following day, Thursday, Dec. 8, '21, at midnight. If any more evidence was necessary that the notice of contest and recount is complete, if sible, in the interest of Fleming, it was furnished the following afternoon (Thurs.) in a long-winded newspaper, article in which Gus, Hirstus, clerk of the board of elections, who after saying "Smith (meaning the editor of The Gazette) is out of luck," unburdened himself as follows: "Unless we receive a duly certified copy of a resolution passed by council, ordering us to preserve the ballots, they may be destroyed. The law provides that they must be destroyed within thirty days unless an appeal from our count is pending." Last week Thursday afternoon while we were taking the "grin" out of Gus Hirstius, clerk of the board of elections, and proving that he was "out of luck" rather than the writer, "Starlight" Bovd by doing Mb. the hospital where he had been taken the before suffering from pneumonia which compelled him to take to his bed, the first of the week. This was undoubtedly the direct result of a weakened constitution from loss of rest during the recent campaism. He had not been well since nation newspapers report his wife as saying.

Twenty-three members of Lane Metropolitan C. M. E. church have joined Williams chapel in the last ten days and twenty-two joined July and September. Rev. H. Brown's support of "Starlight's" candidate (Fleming) for the City Council in Ward 11 is said to have caused a most unfortunate condition in Lane church, this particularly when Bishon C. H. Phillips refused to grant the church's request (to move Brown) made at the recent C. M. E. conference held in Indianapolis. A delegation was sent to that city with a largely signed petition against Brown which included the Lane church and leading members of this city. Thirty-seven members of the church joined the A. M. E.

Recount Assured, seeded Tried to Defeat This—"Star- Death a Great Surprise too, it was generally known that "Star," the "organization's leader in ward 11, worried greatly over the impending defeat of his candidate for mayor (FitzGerald) and that of his lieutenant, Thos. W. Fleming, his candidate for the council in ward 11. There were very few persons in the ward, the last two weeks of the last week, but were free to admit the impending defeat of both candidates, particularly Fleming. The result was that "Star" worked practically day and night to "stem the tide." This was impossible. Unlike Mayor FitzGerald, Councilman Fleming is claiming re-election. Election night it is said, "Star" was with the rough crowd of his followers, led by a band, that tore down part of the fence in front of our home, broke the pickets, and the hinges on our gate, broke down the front porch of his residence and treated its front door and windows similarly. After all this, the crowd went to the sewer being built in Central Ave, near E. 37th St. where it went thru a mock ceremony, burying a Bailey and being asleep as Syd demonies, it is said. Also that it was here that "Star" walked to the sewer, stooped over and was looking info it as best he could at that time of night, near midnight, when some one asked: "Star, what are you looking at?" He replied, it is said, "I am looking to see where Harry Smith is buried." We are told that some one then said him: "Look out that meadow is the deceased before the month is out." And just one month to the day, "Star" breathed his last in the hospital. His full name was Albert Duncan Boyd and a young wife and four children survive him and have the sympathy of friends in the community, "Star" was installed as a ward leader not quite six (not. 12) years ago by Mayor, now Gov. Harry L. Davis and Republican County Committee Chairman Maurice Maschke whose Cleveland Plain Dealer write-up of "Star," last Friday morning, was really ridiculous almost entirely. It has been deceased the paper's management rank injustice. Out of consideration for his family, the Gazette will not attempt a truthful biographical sketch of the deceased and refuses to be miled by the Plain Dealer or Maschke as were both The News and The Press, local dailies. The funeral, Monday afternoon, at Mt. Zion Congregational church was largely attended as anticipated the pastor, Rev. H. Brown and Chas. Crabble, officiating. The last two were the only two ward 11 ministers of color we know of who had the temerity to openly support "Starlight's" candidate for the council (Fleming) in recent campaign. Brown's removal was asked of the C. M. E. conference that met in Indianapolis, a few weeks ago, members of Lane church and leading citizens petition to Bishop Phillips. Crabble is a Baptist, "Star's" remains were interred in Lake View cemetery, Slaughter Bros., undertakers, in charge. The floral tributes were numerous, and many white politicians were also in attendance upon the funeral. John Perry sang "Dear Old Pal of Mine." H. C.

DECEMBER 17, 1921. PROPHETS SANS HONOR Seventy-five years ago, when Great Britain adopted the free trade policy, the leader in that movement, Cobden, said the world would follow England's example. It did not. In October of this year Great Britain returned to the protective policy with a "safe-guarding of industries act" levying a 33 per cent, duty on imports, and a certain American free trader who spends the better part of his time in England is reported to have said that the world would never follow England's example. But it is doing sp. These tariff prophets are without honor in any country. It is an extraordinary tale that Mr. Tumulty has unfolded for the edification of the American people. They would be credulous indeed if they accepted without question all of the remarkable statements he has made concerning his former chief and his connection with the war and the Paris peace settlement. The Republican majority of the Senate who accomplished the defeat of the league covenant must stand aghast at the enormity of their offense as laid bare by Tumulty. The famous Round Robin of March 4, 1919, signed by 39 Republican Senators decreeing the defeat of the covenant, is designated as "a singularly shameful chapter in American history." Mr. Tumulty ascribes to the publication of that Round Robin the events in the peace conference immediately thereafter, while Mr. Wilson was on the ocean hastening back to Paris. Upon receipt by cable of the news of the action of the Republican Senators Mr. Tumulty says the league covenant was discarded, and a preliminary peace arranged based upon a frank division of spoils, Germany was to be a slave state, the allies were to form a military alliance to guarantee their gains, an allied army was to march on Russia to put down the Bolshevik, the treaty was to be enforced by an allied army of occupation, and the United States was to pay the cost of the Russian expedition and other expenses incident to the military occupation of Europe. Those were the consequences, according to the Wilson biographer, that flowed from the publication of the Republican Round Robin. Ten days after the conspirators had evolved their schemes, the hero of the Tumulty book arrived on the scene, "The President allowed himself just twenty-four hours in which to grasp, the plot in all its details, and then he acted." He informed his colleagues of the peace conference that the league covenant must be made a part of the treaty of peace. Two weeks later, the conferences not proving sufficiently tractable, Mr. Wilson ordered the George Washington to proceed at once to Brest, but the fit of temper incident to the Round Robin and its effect at Paris was too much for the president and he collapsed and went to bed. It may be confidently stated that it has never occurred to the 39 signers of the Round Robin that by their action they favored any of the iniquitous proceedings outlined by Mr. Tumulty. All that the Round Robin did or was designed to do was to serve notice to Mr. Wilson and to the world that the sovereignty of the United States was not to be abridged by membership in any supergovernment. It was completely effective in that regard, and the fatal illness that assailed the league idea in this country dates from March 4, 1919, the day the Round Robin was signed. It would be well if all business men, particularly those interested in public utilities, could fully realize the truth of the assertion made by Otto H. Kahn, of the banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., when he said, "Business can safely put its trust in the masses of the people provided it will go to the trouble to state its case clearly and fully. This has been demonstrated again and again." Of course Mr. Kahn is right. If he is not right, then our entire system of government is fundamentally wrong. Representative popular government is based upon the belief that the masses of the people—the composite citizenship—can be trusted to form sound opinions of both men and measures. From the beginning of our government the people have been asked to pass judgment upon rival candidates for office, and, in national affairs in particular, this has involved passing judgment upon the issues, for the candidates have discussed the issues in the campaigns. The personalities of the candidates always have a bearing, and should have, but it is altogether probable that the principles for which the candidates stand are of more influence upon the voters than are the characteristics of the men themselves. American government has been operated upon this faith in the masses for a century and a quarter and our faith has increased rather than diminished, for we provided for the direct election of senators and a large number of states have adopted constitutional amendments providing authority for the submission of laws to the people for popular adoption or rejection. It does not appear that any great calamity has resulted from the extension of the power of the masses. Quite likely mistakes have been made, but so also have mistakes been made—equally as great mistakes—where power was exercised by a supposedly superior few instead of by the masses. It is altogether probable that where the people acting in the aggregate have made mistakes, there was not a full compliance with the qualifying clause of Mr. Kahn's proposition, "provided the case is stated fully." Decisions are often made by the people through the force of public opinion as well as at the ballot box. This has been particularly true in recent years when some important problems have arisen not of a political and partisan character. It was public opinion, for instance, that prevented the threatened railway strike a few weeks ago. Open discussion brought the facts to the attention of the public, and the masses decided the case. What American business needs is more faith in the people—in the composite citizen. Eight Babes in Single Call.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, DECEMBER 17, 1921 LEAVES $7,000 IN SOCKS AND JARS Johanna, Mystery Cook, Had No Faith in Banks Or Relatives. LAST NAME A MYSTERY Relatives Make Dash For Money When Doctor Calls Them For Negotiations—Money Hidden in Jars, Socks, Pots, Pans and Kettles. NEW YORK—For years, Johanna, last name a mystery, had led a excluded life as cook for Dr. W. E. Caldwell, 58 West Fifty-Fifth street. The home was her refuge and once a year old did she fare forth—and that was for a new hat. As far as the doctor could observe the one time she wore a hat when she traveled forth to purchase new headgear. So the years passed until recently when Johanna became critically ill. Dr. Caldwell did his utmost for her. But she grew steadily worse and the doctor, who did not even know her last name, asked her if she possessed any relatives. With vehemence, Johanna declared that she was all alone in the world. "But," complained the perplexed doctor, "you are extremely ill and if you have any living relatives they should be notified." Johanna turned her face to the wall, but after long questioning gave the name of a "sister" and explained where she could be found. After her death Dr. Caldwell went in search of this relative, only to discover that the name and address were fictitious. Nothing remained but to go through Johanna's belongings. No clues as to relatives could be discovered, but in socks and hidden in jam jars and thrust in pots and pans and kettles and placed under carpets was money—much of it. An accounting by the doctor brought the sum to approximately $7,000. The need of heirs became evident. Dr. Caldwell remembered that at one time Johanna had been friendly with a former maid. The doctor discovered this maid and after her memory had been jogged a bit she remembered that Johanna had taken her once to a house on Thirty-Fourth street, but had insisted on the maid's remaining without. Dr. Caldwell went to this house and there discovered the relatives of Johanna. They were all over the premises. Among them was discovered a sister. These relatives, all chattering volubly, were herded in Dr. Caldwell's office. Bringing forth the jam jars, socks, kettles and pans, Dr. Caldwell began to count out the modest fortune left by the late Johanna. The sight of the money was too much for the bewildered relatives, who made $dash for the table where the transaction was taking place and sought to get fistfuls of money. It was with difficulty that Dr. Caldwell-restrained them. After the money was counted out it was turned over to Johanna's sister, who divided it among the crowd. Funeral services were held in the Roman Catholic church in Twenty-Eighth street. Dr. Caldwell said that he once attended the funeral services of a well-known physician and that the group present numbered seven individuals. But in the case of Johanna the church was crowded to the doors. There were seven pews of mourners and the other pews were filled. Whether or not they were all relatives of Johanna is a problem, but Dr. Caldwell thinks they were. TWINS CELEBRATE. Two Widows Are Feted by 75 Descendants. CHICAGO.—The twins had a birthday party. Seventy-five children, granchildren and their wives and husbands came for the twins, Mrs. Mary E. Stuber and Mrs. Cecella Shea, who were recently celebrating their seventieth birthday. Each is the mother of seven children and each a widow. They came to Chicago 45 years ago and have lived next door to each other since. In Calumet avenue, where they live, they are known only as "the twins." Both voted recently. CAUSE OF SLEEPING SICKNESS. Filterable Virus Origin, Says Columbia Medical Man. SARATOGA SPRINGS. N. Y. "Discovery of the cause of "sleeping sickness" was reported recently by Dr. L. S. Wechler, of Columbia University, to the state conference of nurses, in session here. The origin, he said, was found to be a filter virus, which in experiments has transmitted' disease from man to monkeys. BABY GETS TUMBLE. One Case Where Rubbish In Back Yard Saves a Life. NEW YORK—Daniel Coogan, two years old, arose from his bed, next a third-floor window of 582 Sixth avenue, Brooklyn, one morning to greet the sunlight and found it good. He pressed against the window pane, which broke, and Daniel tumbled out. He landed on a pile of tin cans, stove pipe and old papers. When John Kennedy, a tenant, rushed toward the infant, he said Daniel was getting manfully to his feet, and greeted him with a smile. An ambulance surgeon could find nothing the matter with Daniel except a cut on the cheek caused by a broken window glass.

ASPIRES TO BE A NATION Ancient Island Discontented; Regards Italy as Unjust And Negligent. "SARDINIA ALONE," MOTTO The Sardinians, Like the Irish, Wish To Go It Alone Declare This is the Moment to Start Regeneration and Reconstruction. ROME—The spirit of unrest has penetrated since the war even to such old world and out-of-the-way spots as the island of Sardinia. Among these picturesque peasants, many of whom cannot read or write, though they are often people of dignified manner and strong character, public opinion is diffused by word of mouth and a strong party has arisen lately whose motto is "Sardinia Alone," who think that the island, which is the second largest in the Mediterranean, would be more prosperous if it governed itself and had nothing or little to do with Italy. In the ancient days Sardinia was one of the great granaries of the world, supplying first Carthage and later Rome with immense quantities of grain. Now a large proportion of the island is uncultivated and about one-fifth is covered with forests, chiefly consisting of holm oaks and cork trees. The most valuable exports, however are from the mines of lead, zinc, antimony, copper, silver, lignite and anthracite, which if only developed, would be a source of great riches. The Sardinians are a splendid fighting race and not only during the late world conflict, but throughout the Napoleonic wars and the Middle Age provided some of the stunchest soldiers in Europe. The Sardinians have always considered their island as the Cinderella of United Italy. They say that they have been alternately neglected and taken advantage of by the central government, education has been disregarded, the malarious state of the country has been ignored, few roads or railways have been provided in order to develop resources, while government money has never been forthcoming for its needs. The peasants of Sardinia declare that this is the moment when Sardinia might start on the road to regeneration and reconstruction, moral and commercial and economic, but if it is, as of old, abandoned to apathy and want of initiative, ruin is certain. A deep spirit of discontent and irritation is prevalent. The Sardinians call themselves the "Irish of the Mediterranean" and a large party is being formed of those who desire to work out their salvation and at least for a certain time to be entirely in dependent of the mother country which they accuse of having treated them more like the typical stympother. They ask to be allowed to take their destinies in their own hands. "THE ROGUES' MARCH." Whistled by Youthful Canonsburgers, Makes Policemen "Go Wild." CANONSBURG, Pa.—The police of Canonsburg will not stand for the whistling of "The Rogue's March." It cost 18-year-old Clinton Schoenberger $3 to render this classic in the principal business street. Schoenberger and others, the police say, are in the habit of whistling the tune whenever a patrolman walks past them on his beat. Chief Bowman remonstrated when the thing got on the policeman's nerves. Then a score of youthful serenaders were hailed before Burgess McMerran, who advised them to respect officers. They were allowed to go. On their way out the young men broke into the irritating strain. Bowman caught one and the burgess imposed a nominal fine. The police declare they are determined to break up the custom. MAGNIFIED 15,000 TIMES. Two-inch Section of Sea-Bottom's Animal and Plant Life Shown. NEW YORK.-A two-inch section of sea-bottom with its tiny animal and plant life magnified 15,000 times has been reproduced in glass and wax at the American Museum of Natural history here. It is called the Bryozoan group, taking its name from the minute sea-animals popularly called sea-mats and sea-mosses, that it depicts. Their shells are encrusted on sea-weeds, pebbles and the shells of larger animals and are said to be ex- Breaks Odds in 24 Hours La Grippie in 3 Days Hill's Cascar Bromide Quinine Tablets are pleasant to take and to sate cure.

C.—In attempting to land at an aviation field near Washington a short time ago, an airplane equipped with a Micarta propeller made of bakelite—a material somewhat similar to celluloid but almost indestructible—nosed over. The propeller churned around several times in the mud and at length righted the machine. Everyone expected to find it broken or at least rendered unfit for further service as such a strain would have broken a wooden propeller into splinters. The bakelite, however, was not injured at all. GERMAN TOY MAKERS. Suffer Heavy Loss Through Rising Value of Mark. BERLIN.—Cancellation of orders by foreign buyers amounting to 60,000,000 marks suffered by a German firm of toy makers on account of the recent more favorable standing of the mark prompts the "Tageblatt" to observe that the charge made against Germans of being guilty of breach of business morals because in isolated cases they used similar pretexts to evade contract obligations no longer holds good. The German toy makers claim that shipments already on the way and out of Germany have also been refused acceptance, on the ground that prices based on the recent improved status of the mark exceeded the world market prices. GIPSIES EVADE TAXATION. Take Advantage of Regulation by Merely Moving Two Vards. GULLDFORD, Eng.—A novel way of avoiding the payment of local taxation has been discovered by several large families of gipsies in an encampment here. They own the land and thus are liable to house duty. There is a regulation, however, that if the wheels of a permanent caravan home are turned completely around once every year the owner is absolved from duty. Consequently when the tax collector calls at the camp there is a general wheel turning. Every caravan simultaneously moves forward about two yards—and the gipsies can live duty free for another year. LOS ANGELES.—A. M. Morrison, aged 100, and Miss M. A. Barney, 72, were married here recently, as the result of a renewed romance of their younger days. Both the centenarian and the blushing bride are active. ROMANCE COMES BACK. Young America Finds Travel and Adventure in Army. NEW YORK.-The spirit of romance has lately reawakened in young Americans, Colonel Benjamin W. Atkinson, chief recruiting officer for the New York district, says. He explained it is in the form of desire for adventure and travel and to see the strange peoples. Their ages, he said, ranges from 14 to 27. He said: "Twenty-three is the average age of those becoming soldiers now. They want to go to Germany for adventure and travel; they want to go to the Mexican border, on the chance that they will get fighting. The spirit of romance is very strong in many of our recruits. They seem bubbling over with it. "Our greatest difficulties, are with boys. Boys, many under 16 years of age, are almost swamp our stations at times. They swipe their father's or their big brother's trousers, try to make their voices husky and apply to the buggy trousers, which drag along the pavements. "With the consent of parents or guardian, they can don the olive drab at 18 years; in some special cases of unusual development, at 16 years. But it really is touching how many who haven't blown out 16 candles on their birthday cakes try to become men-at-arms. From the enthusiastic expressions in their eyes you know that the smoke of battle is already in their nostrils. "Those who get the greatest pleasure out of the life are those with the romantic soldier of fortune spirit, of which Richard Harding Davis wrote. They want to go to Germany, the Mexican border, the Philippines, Hawaii and Alaska. Many desire to 'travel abroad at home'."

It is no more than simple justice that these men be cared for and, when one considers the fact that they are simply asking a contribution that will only average $1.50 per cripple, all able to do so should certainly help them out.

PITTSBURGH, Pa.—"I am only 17 years old and I have a whole long life to live and I am not going to worry about him." This was the statement of pretty Lucille L. Stacy, whose hero husband, Martin W. Soles, aged 23, of Homestead, was held for court on a charge of bigamy preferred by the girl's father, William S. Stacy, 823 Wymore street. According to the story told by the girl, she saw Soles' picture in the newspapers during the war, as one of those wounded in France. She started to correspond with him, to cheer him up, as many girls did during the war, and from this correspondence sprung a friendship. Upon Soles' return to America, he came to see the girl, she said, and the little romance culminated in their marriage. "We went to Wellsburg, W. Va., she said, "and lived happily for a time. After a while he would get angry at me and tell me about his other wife. Finally, I believed it and I came home and told my father." In this way, said Miss Stacy, the man gave away his own guilty secret. After Mr. Stacy had heard of Soles' statement to the effect that he already had a wife, he investigated the matter and found that Soles had been married to a girl who was residing in Cleveland, but whose parents lived in Duquesne, Pa. It was then that charges were preferred against Soles. Miss Stacy says she is trying to forget her troubles. She is living with her parents who are "standing by her" and are determined to see that Soles is brought to justice. IT'S A BEAR! Huge Bruin Halts Love-Making in New York Suburb. NEW YORK—A young man and a young woman were walking along Ferris avenue in White Plains, holding hands and talking of the future, when they heard something grunt and say "Woof! Woof!" behind them. "A pig," said the young woman. "How funny a pig should be out at night." But it didn't sound like a pig to the young man. He turned and looked, and saw a big black bear ambling along not more than ten feet behind them. Both he and the young woman went home without further comment. Since that time, at least five persons have complained to the White Plains police that the bear has interrupted their wanderings along Ferris avenue. The animal appears to operate along Cemetery road also. The first two or three nights the bear was alone, but on a recent night three people told the police that the animal had a couple of little ones along. Plenty of tracks have been found. BLOND ESKIMOS SCARCE. Arctic Wanderers Searched Two M. F. White John Years For Them and Locate None. NOME, Alaska—Captain Joe Bernard and A. Anderson arrived here recently with their vessel, the Teddy Bear, after four years spent in the Arctic, during 25 months of which time they were icebound at Taylor Island in Victoria Strait, near King William Land. Captain Bernard brought with him a native of the land of Stefansson's famous blonde Eskimos, but declared that after two years' search of that district he was unable to locate any of the blonde natives. He found sod houses evidently of great age in East Carnation Gulf, he said, and brought back pieces of old ivory and other curios uncovered in the ruins. Trucks Become Electrified. CAIRO, Egypt—Trueks used in the Sahara desert sometimes become so heavily charged with electricity that drivers receive shocks when they grasp the steering wheels after the machines have stood for a short time. It is supposed that they become charged as a result of electrified sand blowing against the metal parts, the rubber tires serving as insulators and so making it possible for the charge to accumulate. The trouble is overcome by the simple expedient of connecting a wire trailer to each machine to conduct the electricity to the earth.

Don't Throw Away Your Copy of THE GAZETTE After Reading it, but Give It to a Friend or an Acquaintance who Might Subscribe After Reading a Copy of It DO YOU KNOW WHY --- A Woman Finds So Much To Worry About? Latest Discovery of Medical Experts Is Great Aid To Correct Dietics. A GREAT STEP FORWARD No-One Yet Knows Just What Vitamines Are—Found in Various Fruits And Vegetables—Absolutely Essential to Normal Growth. A little more than a decade ago some experimenters fed one group of cows on corn exclusively. Another group was given only oats and a third group was allowed nothing but wheat. Those fed on corn kept more healthy and did better generally than any of the others. Naturally it was concluded that corn contains some important element that the other grains lack. Science has since discovered that corn is richer than the other grains in vitamins—peculiar "accessory substances" which are essential to the vital processes and therefore to health in man and other animals. Some time after this a British physician was making a study of berberil a disease that is induced by faulty diet and that has long been prevalent in Eastern lands. Like earlier observers, he noted that the disease usually attacked people who lived largely on polished rice and passed by those who ate brown unhusked rice. By way of experiment some of the sufferers were fed a quantity of the coarse material removed in the process of polishing the grain and recovery took place within a short time. An analysis of the husk revealed a peculiar substance different from starch, protein and other familiar food elements. Because of its evident importance this was named "vitamine," from the Latin word meaning life. No-one yet knows just what vitamins are but their importance in the diet is generally recognized by medical men. They are found in various fruits and vegetables, particularly when fresh. Three kinds have been recognized, namely, "fat soluble A," "water soluble B" and water soluble "C." The first occurs in raw cabbage, spinach and other greens as well as in animal fats, milk, butter, cheese, etc. Vitamine B is found in most of the common vegetables and grains. Vitamine C is most abundant in fresh fruits. It is also present in vegetables of various kinds and in milk and meat. Many believe that vitamins come originally from plants and that those found in milk, meat and other animal products are obtained from the grass and other vegetable food of the animals. Experiments on the lower animals have demonstrated that vitamins are absolutely indispensible to normal growth and even to life but no one can say just now they affect the vital processes. It appears that in some way they stimulate the glands of the body and thus promote digestion and the growth and repair of the tissues. Medical experts are convinced that much of the ill-health among Europeans at the time of the war and since has resulted from an insufficient supply of vitamins in the food eaten. Not only has this lack of vitamins brought about more sickness and increasing death rate but it has been largely responsible for declining birth rates, health experts declare. Rumanian children who had nothing to eat but scanty raions of corn meal and thin bran and vegetable soup, a diet deficient in vitamins. were found suffering from blindness and eye disease of various kinds. All were extremely thin and some had swollen limbs. Codiliver oil was added to their diet and an extraordinary improvement in their condition was immediately apparent, due mainly to the vitamins supplied by the oil. Many Europeans are suffering from pellagra, beri-beri and scurvy, diseases due to a diet lacking in vitamines and other food elements. Despite the fact that food is relatively abundant in the United States, 100,000 pellagra occur every year and scurvy is even more common. Because of ignorance of dietetics, many children are given foods lacking all elements essential to health and proper growth and as a result are developing into mental and physical defectives. Frequently the simple addition of fresh milk or fresh fruits, such as oranges, apples, tomatoes and the like to the daily diet would supply the vitamin deficiency and assure health and normal development. Good clean milk is regarded as the best of all foods for children because it supplies vitamins and other elements essential to growth and the maintenance of health. So far as vitamine content is concerned, how ever, orange juice is thought to be more valuable food than milk. The juice of the grape fruit is also a valuable addition to the diet because of its richness in vitamins. The juice of fresh or canned tomatoes is practically as good as these fresh fruit juices and so is sweet turnip juice. These fruits and vegetables should be used to supplement milk and other foods that may be deficient in vitamins. The Federation of Women's Clubs has condemned women who smoke cigarettes. It is quite evident that women who smoke cigarettes don't federate—Cleveland Plain Dealer SUGAR-BEET HARVESTER. Probably more hard, back-breaking work is involved in producing a successful crop of sugar beets than in producing any other crop. Thinning the plants after they come up is a slow, laborious task. There is no way to get the weeds out of the rows except to pull and hoe them out by hand, a tedious job, especially if rains interfere with running the cultivator early in the season. At harvesting time a horse-drawn plow-like implement is usually used to lift or pull the beets from the ground. Two to two and a half acres a day is about the best that can be done with such a "puller." A man must then follow up and finish the work of the puller, taking the beets one at a time from the furrow and throwing them aside into a pile. No-one who has never done such work can imagine how tiresome this is. The next operation is to cut off the tops and pile the roots ready to be hauled from the field. This work has always been done by hand, by workers—often foreigners employed specially for taking care of beets—armed with heavy knives. Some beets grow deep, altogether covered by the soil, while others grow with more or less of their upper portions exposed above the ground. As the part that grows outside the ground contains an acid that interferes with the extraction of sugar from the pulp, all of it has to be cut off. Topping therefore is a particular kind of a job. The problem of producing a machine that would remove this acid-bearing part of each beet and only that part along with the tops has long baffled inventors. At last, however, a man named Kramer has worked out one that is said to do the work of lifting and topping satisfactorily. The inventor claims that it eliminates the drudgery of beet-harvesting and predicts that it will be used in all beet-growing sections of the country this fall. The new beet harvester has a revolving disk cutter that runs in a plane parallel to the surface of the ground. By means of a spring and roller adjustment the cutting distance is measured from the tops of the beets and the rapidly revolving discs cut off the top of each at just the proper point. The machine is said to cut off the undesirable portion with less waste than when topping is done by hand. Just back of the topping disk are two pullers which lift the beets from the ground and drops them on an endless chain elevator. This carries them to the rear and deposits them on the ground clean and ready to be loaded on the wagons. The machine which operates somewhat on the plan of the pdto-digger is said to work successfully regardless of the condition of the soil, whether wet and muddy or dry and hard. It tops and digs from two and a half to three acres per day, effecting a saving over hand labor of about $12 daily. It is so built that it turns within small space, thus making it possible to dig the beets entirely to the end of the rows. (We can give no information as to where or by whom the machine is made, by whom it is sold or the price.) BLOOD TRANSEUSION. New and Meritorious Method Devel- oped by Two French Physicians. As is well known, medicine and surgery were greatly enriched by the practical experience of physicians and surgeons in treating sick and wounded fighters in the late war. Among the important discoveries was a method of healing wounds worked out by Dr. Alexis Carrel and the English chemist Dakin. This method which is now used extensively in America and Europe consists essentially in flushing the wound with a solution of hypochloride of soda combined with boric acid. The solution is placed in a bulb from which extends a tube terminating in several small branches. The smaller tubes are forced into the wound and the solution is allowed to flow periodically from the bulb through the tubes to flush the wound. Frequent microscopic examinations are made to ascertain what progress THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, OHIO, DECEMBER 17, 1921 is being made against the bacteria. These micro-organisms of course are responsible for infections, for feverish conditions and for various fatal developments in wounds. When the microscope shows that the wound is practically free from bacteria the patient is regarded as well on the road to recovery. Sometimes in using this method hemorrhages occur and if the loss of blood is considerable the patient will die unless the blood is at once replaced by transfusion. Two French physicians have worked out a new method to meet such emergencies. By this method, we are told, the operation of transfusing blood has been greatly simplified and robbed of some of its most dangerous features. After applying a tourniquet above the elbow of the person from whom the blood was to be taken it has been the practice heretofore to tap the large vein in the lower arm and allow the blood to flow directly through a tube into the veins of the patient. Despite the greatest care this operation is sometimes a failure for one reason or another. By the new method the tourniquet is applied and the vein of the donor of blood is tapped in the same manner but the blood is allowed to flow into a vessel of some kind instead of flowing directly into the patient's veins. Citrate of soda is then stirred into the liquid to prevent coagulation and also to render it aseptic. Thus the difficult, delicate operation of connecting the veins of two persons is eliminated. The required amount of blood is readily obtained and the surgeon's attention may be given wholly to drawing the blood and subsequently to its actual trans fusion into the circulatory system of the patient. CHEAT IS CHEAT. Weed Cannot Come From Seed of Cultivated Grain There are many people who believe that under certain circumstances wheat and other grains may degenerate and produce the worthless, pestiferous weed, cheat. As cheat usually grows with wheat and other crops, often appearing most luxuriously in spots where the seed sown has not developed into the desired species of plants, it really appears to the superficial observer that the weed comes from the seed of the cultivated grain. The scientist assures us, however, that this view is incorrect; not only is it contrary to biological laws, but actual experiments in the field have demonstrated that when wheat, rye, and the like, germinate and grow they produce grain of their own kind—never cheat or anything else. The Farm Journal discusses the matter authoritatively as follows: Wherever there is a weed that likes to grow with a certain crop, and which has about the same habits as that crop, except that it ripens seed a little earlier and sheds a good part of its seed before the main crop is harvested, there are people who are dead certain that unfavorable conditions will cause that crop to turn to that particular weed. In the rice fields of the South it is a very common belief that ordinary rice turns to red rice. In the winter oats district of the South oats are supposed to turn to cheat. In the winter wheat belt wheat is supposed to turn to cheat. Farther north, rye is said to make this remarkable change. Friends, there is nothing to it. None of these crops ever, under any conditions, turns into something else as different as cheat is from wheat. This matter has been tested thoroughly. Cheat comes from cheat seed. It can't any more come from wheat, or oats, or rye, than a chicken-hawk can hatch from a hen egg. One correspondent tells of a passage that had not borne a crop for years. It was sown to wheat containing no cheat, and half the crop was cheat. This could only have come about by the fact that either the man who sowed the wheat was mistaken about the seed having no cheat in it, by the droppings of animals on the pasture after eating cheat seed, or by someone deliberately sowing cheat seed on the land. Other supposed proofs are to be explained in the same way. Writing is very puzzling to savages. In South America, one one occasion, a native was sent by a missionary to a friend with a note and four loaves of bread. The native ate one on the way, and was amazed to find that the note discovered his theft. On the next occasion that he was sent with four loaves he sat on the note while eating one of them. The United States, with about 545, 000,000 acres of forest land, is esti- nated to contain 2,826 billion feet of merchantable timber. The British Museum contains a large spider crab measuring 18 feet across its outstretched legs.

It took Hon. Harry C. Smith, the editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into 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 8.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and assaulted with whips, 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 the family and education of the children of such person so救 if, surmise shall call such children such lawful killing. Such sum shall be applied to the maintenance of 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 adult person, such sum shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (98 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 person present with hostile intent, at 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—(in the statutes) under the heading ed. representative of victim of lynching.ury by mob trying to lynch another. costs in tax levy. st member of mob. st another county. 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, earling house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities, or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per son 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 Judge Grant's Opinion of the Law. Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry for the passage of the Beatty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: My Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism; editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. very truly yours, C. R.
