Atlanta, Ga.—A movement, which is not receiving the appreciation it deserves, is that or promoting better feeling and clearer understanding between the races in the South. This work is being done by the Southern Commission on Inter-racial Cooperation headquarters here. Twirds of the counties of the thirteen southern states have local organizations, representatives of both races Kentucky has recently supplied two illustrations of the benefits which accrue. At Madisonville when a mob formed to lynch a drug-crazed Negro who had murdered the sheriff; the commission soon made it clear to everybody that the guilt was that of an individual and not that of a class. Our people joined in the search for the assassin. They deplored the act. Sheriff Hanson had been friendly and the friendship had been reciprocal. The guilty man was legally tried and executed. The mob had considered burning our section of the city and precipitating "a race war." The saner course was followed because the inter-racial commission could successfully appeal to public sentiment in a sensible way. At Corbin a Negro was wrongly accused of cutting a white man: It was not even done by a member of the race. The ringleaders of the mob, which herded many of our people, was sent to the penitentiary through the efforts of the interracial commission. Mob law is anarchy! It brutalizes the community and lowers the standards. It discourages the ambitions and has no place in civilization. Everybody knows these things, but it takes organization to make the knowledge effective.
Mrs. Wm. Fears and Carey Trimble were called to Hillsboro, last week, by their father's death.
The Douglass Drug Co., Miss Clemence A. Griven, Geo. G. Craig and Dessa Clements, have opened a fine new drug store on the southeast corner of E. 40th St. and Central Ave, and are doing an excellent business already.
Among the callers at The Gazette office, last week, were Messrs. A. T. Abbott and brother-in-law, Alexander Piper, of Frankfort Ross Co. O. The latter was called to the city by the illness and death of Mrs. Abbott.

This is the first time in the history of our city that our people have been so united in resisting the action of local Republican leaders and they are standing together without fear or regard for the future. We have found that the reason we have never been able to accomplish anything here is that we have never had the nerve to take a stand and repudiate those who claimed to be our friends even when we know they were not local Republican leaders, and their Negro honunen, like Z R Jackson W F Speaks and others, thrun the school board; have heard upon our people a disgrace that will still shores for

ALL BUT CAUSED A RIOT!
Editor Smith and Dr. Bailey Address Great Mass Meetings—Squandering The Tax-Payers' Money!
(Special to The Gazette.)
SPRINGFIELD, O.—What might have been serious trouble was narrowly averted, Tuesday morning election day, when Patrolman Elmer Roberts, who had been stationed as a guard at the "jim crow" Fulton school building, lost his head (during a demonstration against the "jim crow" school teachers by the pickets) toothily drew his revolver and pointed it at one of our women nearest to him. About the WORST thing he could have done! It is a wonder he was not killed on the spot. There was a large number of pickets on duty when the teachers arrived. Roberts was being severely handled when the emergency squad from police headquarters arrived and plunging into the fray became the center of another struggling group. With better judgment, the officer in charge halted his men who drew their guns and thus what would have been a bloody fight was averted. During the altercation with Officer Roberts which was precipitated by the arrival of the first auto-load of "jim crow" school teachers, a second cab filled with more of them. Their presence among the now thorny angered crowd had about the same effect as waving a red rag would have had on an angry bull. The cab was immediately surrounded and before the driver (white) could escape. Principal Bullock and Jane Lee, who are regarded as the chief offenders among the "jim crow" school teachers, were severely maulled. By this time President Charles L. Johnson, of the Civil Rights Protective League who lives about two squares from the school, arrived and order was soon restored. It is needless to say that there was no attempt to hold school. Tuesday. The teachers who had already entered the building were removed under police protection.
The ten days, given the board of education and Supt. McCord to answer the charges in the petition of Pres. (Chas. L. Johnson and Treas. James W. Leigh, representing the C.R.P. League in the court fight against the "jim crow" Fulton school, will expire on this week Friday. It is being freely forecasted that the temporary injunction, granted last week Monday, will be made permanent because the law is so clear, with numerous court decisions affirming, that by no device whatsoever can separate schools be established in the state of Ohio on a basis of race or color. In the face of the unwavering determination of our people not to have a "jim crow" school in Springfield and an adverse decision of the court
mon pleas court, Supt. McCord has been giving assurances privately, and maintaining the contempt for law and the rights of others that has all along characterized his administration as superintendent of the public schools of this city. Realizing the necessity for continued vigilance, the picketing has continued as before, and with the co-operation of parents, has resulted in a slight decrease in the average daily attendance which has been about 25. Since the court affirmed, the illegality of the "jim crow" school it has taken but little effort to get parents to keep their children out of it. When he testified at the hearing, for the temporary injunction that he did not know that only 25 of the more than 250 Afro-American school-children in the Fulton school district were attending that school, McCord was only trying to conceal the real truth that for the last two months $25,000 of the tax-payers' money has been paid to his crew of "jim crow" school-teachers who had an average each of only about two pupils daily. It is high time the public know how its money is being squandered in this futile effort to force this illegal and very obnoxious "jim crow" school upon this community.
It is seldom that return engagements meet as hearty welcomes as first appearances but such was the case, both last week Friday evening when the Hon. Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, editor of The Gazette spoke at Wiley M. E. church, and on Monday evening when Rev. Horace C. Bailey, also of Cleveland, spoke at Trinity A. M. E. church. This is the second time each of these speakers has appeared here in the last two months to assist in the fight led by the C. R. P. League, Mr. Smith and his singularly telling and effective address, delivered in his usual forcible and incisive style, were greeted with lusty cheers and the most vigorous applause. He flayed those who would deny our rights and privileges, particular attention being paid to traitorous local Republican leaders and those Negroes who mishead and betray our people. For more than an hour he held the undivided and enthusiastic attention of the large audience, one that packed the church to and beyond the doors, and finished amidst thunderous applause when he told our people to make black traitors and parasites in the school-fight leave Springfield. When Rev. Bailey arose to address faced one of the largest audiences of our series of meetings. In opening his address he said that the Republican party was no longer the party of Lincoln, Garrison. Douglas
and Summer; that the elements of life can only be maintained by effort and that to rise we must struggle; that if our boys were good enough to stop a bullet on the battlefield they were good enough to have their full measure of rights and privileges; that we should "fight to the very last ditch" using our dollars and ballots also. Local speakers (white) followed both Messrs. Smith and Bailey. Mrs. J. W. Hunton, field see. N. A. A. C. P., also spoke. Monday evening, praising the C. R. P. League officers and members and urging our people to continue to stand with them in this school controversy. She the meeting at Trinity A. M. E. church on Monday evening he, too, said we were doing a great work, and we are.
(Special to The Gazette)
Springfield, O.—When "the greatest Roman of them all," the Hon Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, editor of The Gazette, was making one of the greatest race-loyalty speeches ever heard in this "neck of the woods," a viper crawled to Mr. Chas L. Johnson's car which was standing near Center St. church in which the great mass meeting was being held last week Friday evening, and with its poisonous fangs punctured all four of the tires. If the culprit, if apprehended, could be turned over to, the Civil Rights Protective League, of which Mr. Johnson is president, this county would be spared some expense because he sure would "receive justice in the process of the law." The league is composed of some of the best people in this community and is fighting only for its constitutional rights—life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Now, if these malcontents are happy with a "jim crow" school they are a curse to their existence and should be crucified upon a cross of oblivion. Mr. Aaron Potis, who resides in Wittenberg Ave., just south of Clark St. left his car standing in front of his home and, while sitting in his front room, two tires were punctured and the curtains of the car shaked into threads. If this is the method Supt. McCord's heuchmen have selected to win his fight for his "jim crow" school and teachers, the C. R. P. League is ready for that kind of "business," too.
We wonder how one feels to be a teacher in a city public school and have to go to and from that school-building under police guard and have an officer in and around the home you are staying in to protect you while you sleep? As a general rule, school-teachers are shown marked courtesy by the citizens in the community where they are teaching the children of today that will be the men and women of tomorrow, inculcating an ambition to light, the torch that will illuminate the pathway that leads to the full noonday of American citizenship. The "jim crow" school-teachers in this city are not only a disgrace to our intelligence and race loyalty, but are a set of unwelcome visitors who are trying to nullify a section of the constitution of the state of Ohio, and their room in Springfield is far more desirable than their company.

them to activate the responsibility for it. It can be truly said that the local "black regiment," led by the R. E. P. League, is in the fight to a successful finish, and will be in the next one with the same vim and vigor to battle segregation and wipe it out.

THE GLOBE THEATER
In a letter to the editor of The Gazette, on Tuesday, Manager Bot Davis writes: "Just a word about this week's show. This is without a doubt, the greatest bill we have gotten together since our opening, Prince and Princess Mysteria have made such a wonderful hit with the public, that we were obliged to put in two special matinees for this week. We are going to make Thursday a matinee for ladies only and Saturday for men only. Both matinees will start promptly at 2:30. The rest of the bill is exceptionally strong, with Elliott and Johnson taking the house by storm. Pace, Thomas and Pace are a very clever trio in original songs and sayings. 'Original Rags' is positively one of the best single acts that has stepped on the Globe stage since tour opening and 'Billy' Harris sure can make her feet move fast." Manager David assures The Gazette that he "will stand back of the statement, that this is positively the greatest show we have yet given."
For next week The Globe has the Anita Bush Co. which carries, with her, 12 syncopaters of harmony, pop and jazz. Reports from Baltimore say this show is exceptionally good. It is playing this week in Pittsburgh and wires, from the Theatre that is playing it, say the show is very good. "Willie Too, Sweet," that funny boy from "Bam," with original songs, dances and sayings, and White and Foster a very clever and eccentric male team in an act that is bound to please the most exciting vaudeville patron, are also on the bill.
For next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, The Globe's feature picture will be "Yellow Mon and Gold." This is a wonderful Goldwyn production, which has just completed a very successful run at the Hippodrome of this city. Be sure to go to The Globe.
Dempsey May Fight Siki or Wills Abroad
New York City — According to a statement made public by Dan McKettrick, eastern representative of Kerris and Dempsey, the champion may go abroad again this time to meet Blitting Ski or Harry Wills. McKettrick announced that he is in receipt of two offers for Dempsey's services, both from England. The first bid offered Dempsey $125,000 to meet Ski, the second $50,000 to face Wills. Those responsible for the proposals, McKettrick said, have guaranteed to assume the burden of the English income tax for Dempsey and stand ready to pay all expenses. McKettrick declined to make known the identity of the promoters.

OBITUARY
FRANCIS H. WARREN, ESG.
One of Our Most Successful Attorneys and Business Men—An Intensely Loyal Member of the Race Passes Out
Detroit, Mich. Last Friday afternoon, there was laid to rest in beautiful Roseland Park cemetery, this city, the remains of our leading lawyer, one of our most enterprising business men, loyal and active race workers, Francis H. Warren. He had been ill since 1915. His complaint is coming about two years. On Oct. 25, 1922, he went to work. His death is November 1.
operation which from all we are able to learn, was but a travesty upon the boasted skill of the surgical part of the medical profession.
The funeral, which was held, Nov. 10, from the family residence, 5058 Grant Court, was a very large one and the dignal tributes beautiful and most numerous indeed. The services which were participated in by the Elks and Masons, Mr. Warren being a member of both organizations, were conducted by Mr. Peck, christian science reader; Rev. Glover and Dr. EH Forsyth, all of this city. In addition to the widow, Mrs. Margaret E. Warren, two brothers, William H. and Charles A. Warren; two sisters, Mrs. Anna Ford of Grand Rapids and Mrs. Louise Hall of New York City, and other relatives, survive him and have the earnest sympathy of a host of friends here elsewhere in Michigan and throughout the country.
Francis H. Warren was born at Sarina, Ontario, Can. Sept. 18, 1864, and educated in the public schools of Saginaw and Reading, Mich. A graduate of the Detroit College of Law, he was admitted to the Michigan bar here in 1903; served in the county treasurer's office under the late Fred S. Snow and entered on the active practice of law in 1904. For nine years he was editor and proprietor of the Detroit Informer. Mr. Warren, attorney for the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., was admitted to practice in the U. S. Supreme Court in 1913. In 1915, as secretary of the Freedman's Progress "commission," he compiled and published "The Michigan Manual of Preservation Progress," a cloth-bound volume (full of valuable information of historical value) which was authorized by a special act of the Michigan State Assembly.
Attorney Warren was president of the McCoy Lubricator Co. and of the Paradise Rescue Co. which has valuable land holdings on a beautiful lake in the northern central part of this state. He also owned valuable property in this city. In his passing out, the race has lost a positive quantity, and the masses of the people, without respect to race, an aggressive, fearless advocate.

It looks as if the leading women-followers of the "Starlight" Boyd-Tom Fleming Ward Eleven regime, of last fall, are trying to bob up into leadership of something again, much to the disgust of many of our good men and women of that section of the city particularly. Last Sunday afternoon, at Cory M. E, church, Mrs. Tom Fleming made an announcement of the intention to organize "Anti - Lynching Women Crusaders," in this city, at the Caters' Club, on Tuesday afternoon, when the organization was affected there, at the time mentioned, with its official staff made up principally of the "followers" of the regime referred to. That ought to about "settle," the "Crusaders" in this community.
A woman was badly cut, Saturday evening, in the vicinity of E. 28th St. and Central St. On Sunday afternoon at E. 33rd St. and Central Ave., brothers-in-law, the large one showing signs of having imbibed too freely of "raisin-jack", had a fist-fight for half an hour, then left only to meet in the evening near the corner of East 31st St. and Central Ave., where they fought with knives until they were ribbons the larger one who died. Monday, in a local hospital, Sunday night, about midnight, near E. 28th St. and Central Ave., there was an imitation of the World War, so many shots being fired. All the criminals escaped, as far as we have been able to learn. These are not all either. And still there are those who insist that Ward 11 is "a haven of refuge." Yes, but for what kind? A foreigner ran down a woman of the race, Sunday afternoon, in Scoville Ave., and refused to take her to a hospital. An officer was compelled to take both to the police station. Why don't our ministers ask the police for parole for kills 11 and 12, especially Ward 11? He will grant the request if it is properly made, we feel sure.

WIND CAVE LITTLE EXPLORED
Hundreds of Passageways in Great Black Hills Cavern.
Wind Cave, National Park, in the Black Hills, about twelve miles from Hot Springs, is on the Deadwood-Denver scenic highway—the "Triangle D" road of the West.
Wind Cove enthusiasts claim that this cavern excels the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky in splendors and in extent. Half a dozen Government surveys have been made in the park. These and various private exploring expeditions that have been organized have accounted for some ninety six miles of the reseaches of Wind Cave, but there are hundreds of passageways that have never been explored. No one knows to what depths they lead, or how far under the Black riffles they may take the explorer. The average visitor to Wind Cave, National Park, travels from six to ten miles underground and comes forth into the daylight realizing that he has seen but a small fraction of this great cavern. Wind Cave takes its name from the strong current of air which almost constantly surges in or out of the entrance. It is said that this led to the discovery of the cave in 1881.
CHARACTER
Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a ripier growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character, in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For forty years The Gazette has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser.

IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON-
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 they will die rather than submit. The race that says it's of no use to resist, downs itself and the world then says, "degrees are not worthy of course rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist proscription 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 long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian.

OLD WOMAN AND HER FLOWERS
HER ISOLATED CABIN SETS IN
BLAZE OF COLORS
Behind Tiger Lilies Is Her "Old Man's" Grave—Her Life Story Like Rare Poem.
After unsuccessfully inquiring of every one in Tenstrike, including two Indians who couldn't talk English, and three small children who couldn't talk anything, where the town got its name, I gave up and went for a hike down the New Elwell road, writes Caryl B. Storrs of the Minneapolis Tribune, who at present is "visitin' round" in Minnesota.
In due time I came upon a house a quarter of a mile off from the highway, a crouched hut of logs with a funny little lean to partially covered with tar paper and polka-dotted with shiny disks of metal, surrounding the heads of the nails that fastened the tattered black paper to the boards. Smoke was curling from a rusty pipe sticking thru the roof of the lean-to, and inside a netted wire enclosure, raised to protect its vegetable treasures from the inroads of the chickens that were scratching around the yard, was the bent figure of a woman picking peas in a dishpan.
Everywhere were flowers and vines, vivid nasturtiums, scarlet geraniums, pink, white and red hollyhocks, tinted sweet peas, blue froget-me-nots and flaming tiger lilies. It was like coming suddenly upon a forest fire, so varied and vivid were the blazing colors.
I stepped up, unheard, to the wire enclosure and said:
The woman straightened herself, putting one hand to her back as if it ached, and with the other pushed back a faded blue sunbonnet. Her thin hair was lined with gray, her eyes were gaunt and her brown, wrinkled face was streaked with sweat; for it was hot out there in the windless woods. She did not smile, or seem particularly surprised, but said "Good morning," pleasantly enough.
"You have a pretty place here," I said.
"I'm not from anywhere in particular," said I, "the 'o I used to live in Minneapolis. I'm waiting for a train at Tenstrike and just 'out for a walk.'"
"I wonder if you could give me something to eat." I asked: "it's dinner time and I'm hungry and it must be two miles back to the hotel." "I dunno 'bout that," she replied, and then came the first glimmer of a emile. "I reckon I could do as well by ye as the hotel, if you don't mind plain things." I looked at the fat pea pods in the cisphar and allowed that I didn't mind plain things at all; in fact, I rather preferred them to the highly ornate fare one was apt to get at the Ten-strike hotel. We came to an agreement, and to expendite matters I shelled the peas and sliced some cold boiled potatoes for frying.
"Yer kind o' handy 'round a kitchen," said my hostess, for we had gone into the lean-to where a pine fire was roaring in the broken stove and a kettle was boiling cheerily. "Yes, like my Jim; he's my youngest boy, I wanted a girl, but he turned out a boy, so I sort o' kept him 'round the house and he was smarter than most girls at cookin' and making 'garden.' "Where is he now?" I asked. "I don't just know," she replied so serely. "He's off north somewherees. The last I heard he was workin' in the woods cruisin' timber up in Canada." "Doesn't he ever write to you?" "Lord love ye," answered Jim's mother, he can't write. And there ain't no post offices where he is any way. He'll be back some day." She went into the main part of the house and returned wiping off a photograph which she handed to me. "That's Jim when he was a little feller," she said.
Jim as a little feller was a decidedly bright youngster, the even the skill of a Bemidji photographer could not conceive that he was universal in the cosmetic arts and had a cast in his left eye.
"A smart looking boy," I commented.
"Yes," she said, "he was the smartest of the two, the Alec allus managed to make a good livin' and used to send me money up to a year ago."
"And where is Alec?"
"I don't just know," she said again, still more soberly: "The last I heard he was workin' for the Oliver mine people up on the range. He'll be back some day."
"And you live here all alone?"
"Killed?" I echoed, sympathetically, the her tone had not sound sympathy. "Yes, right in the woods here six nonths ago. We had a claim here and he was clearin' a piece of land way down this old loggin' road. He had an Indian boy workin' for him and one day when I was gettin' their dinner, jest as I am now, you might say, the boy come runnin' in all excited and said my man was hurt and couldn't move. I hurried back with the boy and there he lay on the ground unconscious and breathin' awful hard like, blowin' out his lips and lookin'
all white in his face and blue around the eyes. A big branch that had caught into a tree had fell and hit him on the head. "Wildow makers," the lumberjacks call them branches, and it was sure the right name for that one. "Well, me and that Indian boy carried him home somehow and we sent to International Falls, where the nearest doctor was. But it was the next day before he got here, and it was too late anyway. He died that same night. Be's buried right out there in the yard." She pointed out of the window with her big spoon, and following its direction I noticed, for the first time, behind a clump of tiger lilies, a narrow heap of earth with a wooden cross at one end. It was a good dinner—crisp bacon, fried potatoes, fresh eggs, new peas, bread and butter, sliced tomatoes and strong green tea.
I paid her a quarter (or something like that), shook hands and started down the trail toward the Elwell road. But I quite forgot to pick my fragmentary dessert of wild raspberries. I was too much absorbed in wondering if Jim and Alec really would be back some day.
It Couldn't Be Done.
They were getting up a charity concert in the small provincial town, and the committee determined to work hard to make a great success of it. The local magnates and tradesmen were called upon, and to one of the latter, a coal merchant whose place was somewhere in the North, an appeal was duly made.
"Ah'm very sorry," was the coal merchant's reply to the committee's representative, "but Ah'm stopped subscribing tae a' these things."
"Well, you'll give us an order for an advertisement on the program?" suggested the caller.
The coal merchant shook his head. Then a sudden inspiration seized him. "Ah tell ye what Ah'de, tho," he said. Ah'll get ma dochter tae sing for ye.
"Right you are," said the other. "What will I put her down for?"
"Keep the Home Fires Burning."
"Can't be done," declared the concert man, emphatically, folding up his papers, "If you won't subscribe I'll take jolly good care you get no free advertisement on our program."
Their Spelling Match.
After attending a minstrel show one evening Mr. Topping thought he'd try some of the jokes on his wife at breakfast next morning.
"My dear," he began, with a grin, "can you spell money with four letters?"
"I cannot," replied the lady, coldly.
"Ah, that's good!" laughed hubby. "A woman never can see a catch as quickly as a man can. Well, the way to spell it is c-a-s-h. Doesn't that spell 'money'?
Mrs. T. failed to smile, so Topping started on another.
"Wait a minute," said his wife: "I've got one. Spell Topping with five letters."
Of course, Topping couldn't.
"Ah," laughed the lady, "that's good! A man never can see a catch so quickly as a woman can. Well- suppose you try i-d-i-o-t? Isn't that Topping?"
Found In Pocket
A great deal has been written, in both poetry and prose, about the relics the boys carry in their pockets, writes the high school reporter for the Toronto Republican, but for some reason they missed the girls. Recently our investigation committee held an inquest upon a girl's pocket and found the following: One scented pocket handkerchief, one vanity case containing powder, mirror and some small change, one powder rag, one crochet hook, one ball crochet thread and work, one tatting shuttle, one button-book, one nail file, one wire hairpin, one coat button, one stick chewing gum, a note from her last beau, and three sens-sens, besides numerous unidentified odds and ends of a miscellaneous nature.
Wrinkles Not In Style.
In a shop recently a well-known actress, who is noted for her perennial youth, asked for a traveling bag of alligator skin. The shopkeeper, who had none of that particular sort, brought out instead some of smooth leather.
"And you tell me this is alligator skin?" objected the actress. "Why, where are all its wrinkles?"
"Ah, madam," replied the wily dealer, who knew his customer, "wrinkles are out of vogue. The correct alligator bag is made from the skin of an alligator that has been massaged."
Nothing Unusual.
"I suppose, Eileen," she remarked to the new girl, with feigned indifference, "that you overheard my husband and me conversing rather earnestly this morning. I hope, however, that you did not think anything unusual was going on?" "Niver a bit mum. Oi wanst had a husband myself, an niver a day passed that tuth neighbors didn't believe one or the other uv us would be kilt entirely."

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. NOVEMBER 11, 1922
LANGUAGE OF SMALL INSECTS
TINY CREATURES THAT TALK,
SING AND DRUM
Bee and Housefly Buzz Their Tunes
In Key of F—Ways of Busy
Ants.
If language is confined to the vocal
expression of emotions then the
insects are practically dumb, but in the
art of expressing themselves in other
ways they are among the most brilliant
conversationalists in the animal
kingdom. Many of the forms of expression
are very rhythmic and harmonious,
resembling the sounds of drums
and other musical instruments.
Insects express themselves fluently and clearly by movements of the body, especially the wings, antennae and laws. Emotions are vividly expressed by gestures or actions, by wing vibrations, thru breathing tubes, by the friction of one body or organ against another. Just as there are men who, without speaking a word can tell volumes, so the insect, knowing none save the sign language, can make himself understood, not only by his fellows, but by the mankind as well. Very clearly is this illustrated by watching the ants in the process of building a home. All are intent on their work, the sentinels watching. Let some unseen danger, some inquisitive boy, perhaps, approach too near and all is changed. The sentinel, instantly alert, thrusts out his "feelers," jeeps his body, stretches out his head, open his jaws and stands there quivering, his every movement expressing a warning as clearly as the he shouted it.
Neither is vocal language needed in the case of the tarantula, who, when suddenly attacked, rears on his haunches, with his front legs thrown up in a striking position. The attacker, whohever he be, needs no words to tell him that his opponent is ready for him.
The antennae language is perhaps the most important of all. The antennal, or "feelers," as they are most frequently called, constitute the facial equipment of ants and many other insects. They are very delicate and are almost always in motion, even when the insect is asleep. A challenge to fight is given and accepted by crossing the "feelers," and two ants meeting when out hunting salute each other by crossing the antennae.
Altho this sign language is perhaps the most important it is by no means the only one. The insects have a variety of sounds which they make use of in expressing all degrees and states of mind from simple content to alarm, anger or anxiety. By varying the vibrations of the wings the insect is able to indicate the state of its temper very clearly.
It is an interesting fact that many of the sounds of nature are keyed in F, a fact recognized and made use of by musicians. Thus the monotonous buzz of the housefly and the hum of the bee are usually in the key of F, with the bumblebee hitting the bass an octave lower.
The wings of the housefly make 352 vibrations in a second, while the honeybee has a range of four notes, from A, with 440 vibrations a second, to E, with 330. This language also seems to be understood by other species for an angry wasp buzzing near an aunt hill will bring out the occupants ready for battle.
There is one form of insect language which is somewhat of an approach to the human voice and it comes from the thorax, the vibrations being produced by breathing. This power of vocalization is possessed by the housefly. It will be noticed that when the wings are held fast by sticky flypaper the buzzing still goes on. The mosquito also has this gift.
An interesting event may sometimes be witnessed among bees. When the old queen has left the nive with a swarm her successor comes forward, leans her thorax against the honeycomb, crosses her wings over her back and proceeds to "pipe" her lay. The music is evidently considered very fine, for the workers one and all cease their tail and stand motion less until she has finished.
Still another form of vocalizing is one on the principle of the violin and mandolin. It is that of regulated vibration, and is produced by rubbing the thigh against the wings. The chirp of the cricket and shrilling of the grasshopper are produced in this manner. This undignified but effective method of conversation is used most frequently in love communications.
In Japan the vocalizations of certain insects are considered a high form of music, and to the natives the songs of the crickets and grasshoppers are as charming as the voice of the canary bird to us. Ever since the tenth century the Japanese have been confining the insects in cages and a lacrative industry has sprung up in Tokyo and other towns.
His Misleading Report
In a certain rural district town post office, the contractions or abbreviations generally in use were Aux. (auxiliary) and Asst. (assistant) postmen. An Irishman, employed temporarily in the postmaster's place during his absence, in sending away his weekly report to the head postmaster, wrote as follows:
"Dear Sir; I beg to report that the ox has returned to duty and the ass has now gone on leave."

of people for purge or age or other
out 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
propritor or his employee, keeper or
manager of an inn, restaurant, eating
house, barber-shop, public con-
ference 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, 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-gerrieved thereby to be recovered by 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 should not 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 outey for the passage of the Beaty 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.
Hon. Harry C. Smith.
Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O.
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. I LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPUBLIC CITY nor our courts and juries, in administration. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed. Very well.
OUR LESSON
We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very interested by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours.—George W. Blount.
Values in Business.
I believe thoroughly, as everyone knows, in education—in all phases of education, I believe that everyone has learned and useful professions. But somehow, I feel that the Negro, like the rest of mankind, must learn to work out more of his problems along business lines than he has in the past; he must learn as others have learned, that a great deal of the so-called race problems he has worked out at six per cent. Dr. R. R. Motom.
A PRIVILEGE
It is a privilege to fearlessly stand for the right—
Not a sacrifice, even though you go down.
They count not the cost, who fight the good fight.
And unfuckingly face the sneer or the frown.
Joseph C. Manning.
