Springfield, O.—A predicted in our last letter, the trial of cases of parents, ordered into Justice Fred N. Carpenter’s court, resulted in their dismissal, and again the desperation of Sept.

But the Pitcher’s crow was held good on the one hand, and on the other, wasting the taxpayers’ money and causing the county to be so soothed and another reason is that such a bill could not be passed. The rumor that one of the members of the Legislature from this (Clark) county will right after the first of the year, introduce a bill to make possible “Jim Crow” schools in the state of Ohio is undoubtedly a silly one for the very good reason that none of the representatives in this county would be so soothed and another reason is that such a bill could not be passed. their rights as citizens The Republican for the next two years is hard enough as it is THAT we will carry "settle it."

THEN MUST GO! The rumor that one of the members of the Legislature from this Clark county will right after the first of the year, introduce a bill to make possible "jim crow" schools in the state of Ohio is undoubtedly a silly one, for the very good reason that none of the representatives from this county would be so foolish and another reason is that such a bill would not be passed. The State Assembly would not dare to introduce such a bill. --- The GAZETTE THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWS BEST AND BEST in the country. 10,000,000 Afro-Americans. 350,000 in Ohio. 35,000 in Cleveland. DECEMBER, 9, 1922 Do not indulge in foolish threats against the Republican party as a result of the defeat of the Dyer anti-lynching bill. --- The Dyer bill is dead and will remain so just as long as the present cloiture (rule) of the U. S. Senate is retained, and the Senate has worked under it from the very beginning. It is clear now that the bill never had a chance to pass. --- Mob violence is "domestic violence."

It will save it from the "clutches" that have all but wrecked Haiti and have caused so very much trouble in both Santo Domingo and Porto Rico. --- In a recent issue of one of our leading weeklies, the editor brings to the attention of his readers the evils of a "multiplicity of organizations." It is an established fact that organization is the most effective method for productivity whether for good or for evil. But the multiplicity of organizations is a detriment to the political and economic life of the average Afro-American. --- In San Diego, Calif., Chas, Harris, a young Afro-American chemist, has developed a successful method of fighting the germs of tuberculosis.

Steward has an article in a recent issue of The Nation, N. Y. City, complaining bitterly because of discrimination against his child in one of the public schools of Columbus, O.

They refuse to follow the lead of our good people of Springfield, O. Stop whining, Brother Steward, and "get busy." RATIFICATION NOT COMPLETE The United States will junk no battleships, as provided in the armaments treaty, until the five parties to the agreement have all ratified it. Great Britain and Japan have ratified, but France and Italy have not. It is rumored that French officials are likely to urge that the French naval ratio be increased, which will add further delay. Much as the administration desires to see the terms of the armaments treaty carried out, there will be no weakening of American naval strength unless the other powers show a disposition to do likewise. GET A COPY. Whatever may be your views concerning the ship subsidy measure, you will be unjust to yourself, unfair to your country, and too steeped in partisanship to be worthy your neighbor's consideration in any argument on the subject, if you neglect to read the remarkable address of President Harding in submitting his reasons to Congress for the ship aid bill. The Harding speeches are readable and understandable. They brush aside visions and ignore abstractions. The man in the street can grasp their meaning as easily as the expert in legislation. The address or ship aid is considered by many to be Harding's best effort, as it is his clearest summing up of a grave situation. The address may be secured by writing to your Senator or Congressman for a copy, and it should be read and thought over carefully. It will stand up to all the criticism you can give it and it will strengthen the arm of those who are fighting to maintain Old Glory on the seven seas. Write for it. --- GIVE OUR PEOPLE ACTION! Our ministers and others of this city should make it a point to tell all of our people they can, and all of their white friends, too, to stay out of the Wm. Taylor, Son & Co. store until it stops discriminating against our people. President Wm. R. Green, who was "turned down" in the store when he went there to purchase a hat, some weeks ago, and his organization, the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., seem unconcerned about his mistreatment. Wm. Conners, who was chairman of a meeting, called several weeks ago, to take up the matter, seems to have "gone to sleep, too." Dr. O. A. Taylor, Alex. H. Martin, Chas. W. Chesnutt, Geo. A. Myers and a number of other prominent local Afro-Americans were at the Conners meeting. Come, gentlemen, what are you doing relative to the matter? The eyes of the community are upon you. Our people want ACTION and ought to have had it from Green and his local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. long, long ago. This is of vastly more interest to those of us who live in Cleveland than the Dyer bill. Ralph Hawkins died, last week Monday night, at Charity hospital. His mprender, an "Afro", was apprehended soon after the dastardly deed was committed. Last Sunday, the 11th ward was again a miniature old time fourth of July. It was bang, bang, cut, cut, throut the day and evening until midnight when Logan's son came "within an ace" of being shot to death by a policeman who saw him shooting at another "Afro". Logan is the latest proprietor of the Z club. A white policeman was shot almost to death in the morning and may die and in the afternoon an Afro-American policeman was shot in the thigh. A stray bullet went thru the pant's leg of another "Afro", a pedestrian, fully a block away from where "Loge's" son was shooting, at E. 30th St. and Central Ave. Sunday midnight. The policeman's bullet went thru both lapels of young Logan's coat. That is how narrow was his escape from death. He seemed to be "loaded" with "raisen-jack" or dope, or both. There were other "affrays" of a similar nature, that day in Ward 11. Nine of every ten of them are caused by the "raisen-jack" and dope sold almost openly in the ward and it seems strange that our ministers and churches in that ward take so little interest in the matter. A proper appeal by them to the mayor and director of police at the City hall would bring about an immediate improvement. --- A concert, under the direction of Mrs. Rachel W. Turner, will be given, for the building fund of Shiloh Baptist church, at Euclid Hall, 111 Club No. 22, Mrs. Mary Randolph, chairman, sponsors this event. Cleveland's first separate place of worship for Afro-American Catholics, the Church of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament, 2354 E. 79th St., was being built, Monday, on the cornerstone laid Sunday, by Bishop Joseph Schrembs. Twenty-five priests of the Cleveland diocese, including Father Thomas E. McKenney (white), in charge of the new parish, witnessed the ceremonies and heard the bishop's plea to members of the diocese to aid with additional gifts the local work begun by two sisters of Cleveland whose $25,000 donation made the church possible. The two benefactors desire to remain anonymous. The old parish and Bishop Schrembs praised the three Blessed Sacrament who are working in the parish, and their founder, Mother Katherine Dresel, member of the wealthy Philadelphia family, who, he declared, "chose to put aside society and its vanities to give her life and her fortune to the uplift of the colored race." Further development of the parish will include a school, according to the plans. Until the church is completed services will be conducted in the Franciscan monastery chapel, Woodland ave, and E. 23rd St. twelve of our boys, who are members of the church, as a guard of honor to Bishop Schrembs as he walked from the parish house to the foundation of the new church building. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. DECEMBER 9, 1922 PRIME SPORT NEWS ```markdown ``` Tut "Turns the Tables." BARBERTON, O.—The scheduled twelve-round feature bout of the boxing show at the Opera House here Monday evening, be- fore Jackson and Walter Archer ended abruptly when Jackson sent the Akron man down for the final count. It was Jackson's go from the start. Archen is a member of the race. Dempsey Willing to Fight. Salt Lake City, Utah.—Tha A Jack Dempsey is ready and willing to fight any man in the world, regardless of color or nationality, and that he is fit to step into the ring at any time on forty-eight hours' notice, was the statement of his manager, Jack Kearns, upon their victory. The champion filled a week's engagement at a local theater. Ski Will Get a New License. PARIS, France—"Battling" Ski will get a new license to box "after nine months of good behavior." This information is contained in a letter sent by the federation to Henry Date, under secretary of state for physical culture. The letter was written as a result of the recent debate in the Chamber of Deputies when the Senegalese deputy, Mons. Diagne, attempted to an empire in which education reduced because of the action of the federation in penalizing Ski. Diagne's motion was defeated by a vote of 408 to 136. He has engaged counsel to sue the federation in an attempt to obtain the rehabilitation of Ski and to prevent the federation from placing the Senegalese fighter in the position of being unable to earn his living for his family (Froeman) and his child. Diagne's accusations in open session of the chamber of deputies, which have choroly stirred the federation, are quoted in the report, published by the Journal official, as follows: "Ski refused to carry out instructions which would have caused the public to be fooled and swindled of his money. Suddenly conscious of his own strength while in the ring, he refused to lie in the fourth round and abandon to Carpenter another victory." Deputy Diagne says his words as quoted above cast no reflection on the honesty of the members of the French boxing federation. "The overtures made to Sikl, to get him to lie down, did not come from that quarter," the deputy added, but he said he had absolute proof. "He surges," he says. He attuned, "was sentenced without being given an opportunity to be heard by the French Boxing Federation, which is unprecedented in the annals of any justice in the world. I am not concerned whether or not this kills boxing in France. I want justice done, and I desire to clear up the pestilential atmosphere surrounding this case. I want to defend the fighters threat to sue me, it makes me smile. The American white man only refuses to be reconciled to the idea that the black may be his Passed Formations Excepted, of Course—Shell Fire Not So Deadly as Shrapnel. It has been estimated that only one bullet in every hundred that is fired hits a man and of those men hit only one in thirty-five succumbs. In other words, it takes 3,500 bullets to kill a single soldier. In view of the awful slaughter that has taken place during the present war these figures sound rather startling, yet they are well within the mark. Of course such calculations as these refer to averages only. An enemy advancing in close formation, as the Germans have been doing recently before Verdun, may be mowed down wholesale be rife and machine gun fire, and in such cases the average of total casualties, compared with the number of rounds expended, will be considerably higher. Shell fire is, as a general rule, even less destructive than rifle or machine gun fire, says a writer in the Boston Post. A modern high explosive shell makes no end of a row when it bursts, kills possibly a couple of men if it explodes inside of a trench, frightens a lot more, and—that is about all. The ruined walls of Rheims cathedral will testify for many years to come that the shell that scattered one statue sedum hurt its next door neighbor. Shrapnel is more dangerous, provided the fuse is timed just right and the gunner who fires it knows his business. A shrapnel shell contains a number of small round bullets, each at the size of a marble. What execution a shell of this sort can do, given a favorable opportunity, was shown at the "battle of the landing," in Gallipoll. An attack was about to be launched against the British left and a fold in the ground hid the attacking Turks from the British forces. They were, however, observed by the Queen Elizabeth far out at sea and a projectile from one of her big guns was dropped right plumb in the midst of them. It was a shrapnel shell weighing 1,500 pounds and holding 1,000 bullets. The attack was smashed and 250 Turks were killed. This works out at a man per fifty-two bullets, and it probably represents the maximum efficiency of shrapnel fire during the present or any other war. For you see, the conditions from the gunner's point of view were exceptional and label. equal either physically or mentally. This poor Siki here, who is a native of India, has been made a living example of this fool state of mind of some whites." "Tommies" Tie Knits. Had Hamilton of the Favorite Knit road football club or Sonny Kuhar of the Tomahawks been able to register on their tries for points after touchdown, the two teams might have reached a decision in their battle at Tate field Sunday. As it was the game ended a 6 to 1 tie. The Knits scored in the third period on end runs by F. Van Duesen and Berkowitz and line plunges by Michaels, the latter going over for a touchdown from the four-yard line. The Tommies tallied in the same quarter when an end run by Garner took the ball across after the Knits had held for three days. The Tommies Tommies forward pass attack was working splendidly, nearly twenty heaves being connected. In the third period, Michaels of the Knits made a spectacular seventy-yard run for a touchdown, but was called back when one of his teammates was caught holding. More than 2,000 people saw the game. Our boys, Cyrus and Garner, were in the "Tommies" line-up The Howard-Lincoln "Classic." WASHINGTON, D. C.—Thousands of persons representing the alumni and friends of Howard University and Lincoln University, Chester County, Pa., poured into Washington to witness the annual football clash, between the elevenes of the two schools on Thanksgiving morning. In 1920 the two teams played each other to a standstill at Philadelphia. The next year at Washington. Howard defeated Lincoln 6 to 0. Last year at Philadelphia, Lincoln defeated Howard 13 to 7. This year Howard enthusiasts had opportunity to see "Bull Dog" Williams, Howard's famous left end, in action, who in the 1920 classic made a 40 yard run from the kick-off for a touchdown, and who was out of the game played at Philadelphia, last year, on account of his injury in Howard-West Virginia bane. Captain Williams had already displayed his old time prowess this year by making a 60 yard run for a touchdown in the Howard-N. C. Agricultural & Technical College game. But Lincoln won this year's contest by a score of 13 to 12, just the same. The Cleveland boxing commission should be made to wipe out its rule prohibiting mixed bouts in this city. It is both silly and cowardly! Even Jack Kempsey and his manager, Keanu Reeves have been made to see this much against their will it is true, but they have been made to see it just the same. Cleveland is one of the few larger cities where mixed bouts are not permitted. In New York state, Pittsburg, Boston and other cities', as well as in the national tournament, our fighters are allowed to meet all others. On the other hand, there are many remarkable instances of shell fire—even concentrated and prolonged shell fire—accomplishing little or nothing in the direction of destroying life. During one of the tremendous preparatory bombardments, for example, it ushered in the early stages of the battle of Verdun, the Germans fired between 20,000 and 30,000 shells of all callers against the French lines in the short space of five hours. Yet the fatal casualties amounted to fewer than 100 out of about 18,000 engaged. One reason for this is, of course, that modern armies, when acting on the defensive, dig themselves in so deeply and so cunningly that they are practically immune from other than very high angle fire. Yet the power of the modern shell is tremendous. If the charge of one of the larger caliber ones—say a German "Jack Johnson"—were burned away quickly it would send some millions of cubic feet of gas into the air. But instead it is detonated in a thousand part of a second, and these millions of cubic feet of gas, with their steel casings, crush everything in their immediate vicinity to the most powder. Yet men even a comparatively few yards away, especially if they are lying down or under some sort of cover, however slight usually escape with their lives at all events, and more frequently than otherwise they are not even injured. Getting Even. If old Garge Jones was the most inquisitive man in the village, Tom Morton was certainly the surfeet. One afternoon, as Garge perambulated slowly along the one narrow street, he paused at Tom's garden force and gazed inquiringly over it at Tom, who was busily nailing a very large box togeher. "Aftertom, Tom," said the old chap, certainly. "Whatever be 'ee puttin' that great box together fort" Tom paused in his hammering long enough to retort curtly: "To hold all your questions if so be as it's enough." Garge eyed him in paineo science for a few moments. Then he took a copy thatat box from his pocket and threw it over to Tom. "Then that'll do for yer civil answers, if so be as it's small enough," he retorted, quietly. Not a Pleasant Prospect.

Oct. 29, on the Atlantic Coast Line, railroad for Philadelphia. I took a coach in seat 1014 which in appearance was the same as the one occupied by the whites. In the forward end of the coach were, on the left, ladies' toilet and on the right, ladies' washroom. About 15 minutes after the train left the car, I got into the ladies' toilet. After coming out he then went into the ladies' washroom. About ten minutes later two men did likewise. I thought something was wrong so began to investigate and found that at the rear end of the coach, the smoking room with all accommodations for men had been taken over by the whites and our men were obliged to use the women's toilet, and if they wanted to smoke, they had to go to the platform of the car door, do so, and were there smoking while the train was speeding along. The train after the train conductor came along and I asked him, 'What about the men's smoking room and their toilet in that coach,' and he said that we would have to use the women's and go to the platform, if we wanted to smoke. I told him that it was against the law of Interstate Commerce and that I would report it. Later I secured the names of a few witnesses. While I was getting the names the conductor sat three or four seats back of me talking to two women men behind them, they disappeared into the smoking room and a short while after that I noticed a change—the smoking room was vacated by the whites and turned over to us before we reached Florence, S.

OHIO SUPREME COURT QUOTED Against "Jim Crow" Schools! They Are Unlawful, Wasteful and Injurious Springfield School Superintendent and Board of Education Denied the Right to Draw Racial Lines In School Matters-Another Great Victory! (Special to The Gazette.) (Special to The Gazette) Springfield, O. — Sup't. McCord and the Board of Education received another setback, Monday morning, when Judge Frank W. Geiger of the Court of Common Pleas overruled the demurrow of the board to the petition of Chas. L. Johnson and J. W. Leigh for a permanent injunction. The decision, which was rather lengthy, required a full half hour for the judge to read. The demurrier admitted the truth of the allegations of the petition, to the effect that the board of education is by transfer of pupils, seeking to establish at the Fulton school, a school exclusively for children of color, and referring to a precedent set by the Ohio supreme court in a similar case and indicated that he would follow it in the case now pending. Judge Geiger said it held that inasmuch as the legislature had, in 1887, permitted the establishment of exclusively colored schools that separate schools for colored children of color, it should be made under that no regulation can be made under any now existing statute which does not apply to all children, irrespective of race or color. Continuing, the court said that "in the district there are about 300 colored and 200 white pupils who were enrolled in said schools in 1920-21, and that the enrollment for the present school year would be about the same, for the fact that the number of adults in the school is unlawfully, to establish and maintain said school as a school exclusively for colored children; that the board has not declared to do so indirectly, and that it has transferred all white children to other districts from the Fulton school district, refusing them admittance in their own district; that such acts have been done solely because of race or color; colored children; that they are unlawful an abuse of the corpse powers of defendant, and a waster of money of the taxpayers, and an irreparable injury to plaintiffs for which they have no remedy at law. "It is asserted that the petition does not show in what manner the plaintiffs, or their children, would be injured by sending them to the school devoted exclusively to the teaching of colored children, and that therefore the plaintiffs do not show a reasonable injury to their others similarly attacked, and that as a consequence the plaintiffs are not entitled to a remedy in a court of equity." With this contention of the Board of Education disposed of, a date for a hearing will be set when the necessary evidence will be submitted. It may be necessary to subpoena the parents of a white child in the Punjab School district as well as the parents of our children who have been denied admission to schools in their respective districts that they might be forced into Fulton school. With from two to five cases against the in the Fulton School district, in the Police court and the two courts of Justices of the Peace, there has been a slowing down in the effort to drive our children into the obnoxious "jim crow" school threats of prosecution. The move has been successful in adding about 25 more pupils to the attendance at the school, but far the greater number of those whom notices have been received are "standing pat" in their determination not to submit to the insulting proposition and cooperating with the officials of the Civil Rights Protective League in NOT sending their children to the "jim crow" school. With cases being set for hearing, this week, another step will have been taken in our fight. Beaten in his plan to exhaust the opposition of our protesting people by inaction, Sup.t. McCord has at last been compelled to resort to the device that he was expected to employ at the beginning. Thus by following the advice of some of his Negro allies he has lost the opportunity he might have had BEFORE the injunction was issued. Backed by this decision, our attorneys are entering into the trial of these cases with the firm expectation of WINNING, as in every case the parents have taken their children to a "recognized" school and they were refused admission. Another defeat was sustained, by those who are trying to intimidate and drive away persons who have been active in preventing the establishment of the Fulton "jim crow" school, when Dr. C. F. Keller was acquitted by a jury in Police Court, last Friday. Friars were charged with assault and battery by Patrolman Elmer Roberts who accused him of having thrown the stone that hit him (Roberts) during the disturbance at Fulton School on election day. Roberts, whose hostility to the pickets was the chief cause of the disturbance, endeavored to prove his case by the testimony of a witness entering the building, that day. Neither Roberts, nor any of the teach- ers, testified that they saw Dr. Keller throw the rock that hit the policeman. They could only say they saw Dr. Keller throwing stones. This was denied by witnesses for the defense who were in a BETTER position to see what occurred. They also said that, owing to the relative positions of Dr. Keller and Patrolman Roberts, it was impossible for Dr. Keller to have thrown the stone that hit the officer. So completely did the state fail to make its case, that it required only six minutes for the stone to return a verdict of not guilty. The jury, which was above the average of Police Court jurying, was composed of the following well-known citizens: Marge Mentel, William Smither, Matthew Briscoe, C. W. Watt, A. Watt, James Baker, Dan J. Shovulin, P. J. Collins, A. E. Compton, Lester L. Meling, Earl Crist and James Posey. Attys, Sully Jaymes and Geo. W. Daniels were assisted by Atty. Thos. J. McCormick, in the defense, while Atty. Justin Altschul, assistant city solicitor conducted the prosecution. Dr. Keller and 32 others also face charges of rioting which are expected to be signed for hearing soon. The examination for jim crow. Fulton school-teacher (Teacher), who appeared in stresses for the prosecution, incidentally demonstrated the grade of intelligence of what Supt. McCord, and his thought-echoing tools, black and white, most vociferously assure us are "the best colorized teachers that could be found in the country." It should have been said that they are the best that could be found with so little self and race respect as to lend their services to establish a "jim crow" school in disregard of the law and wishes of their own people. With so many evidences of the contempt in which they are held in this community, this lack of intelligence, lack of self respect, race loyalty and pride that allows them to remain here and occupy their present distressingly obvious position. The receipt by Pres. Charles L. Johnson, Attys. Daniels and Jaymes of letters, bearing the initials of the three "K's", shows at least the spirit of some of those who object to the activities of the C. R. P. League. Our people of Springfield, by the brave and determined fight they are making, led by the C. R. P. League, are defending the life of our people but only of the rest of the state but of every state where democratic schools exist. The Friday night meetings of the C. R. P. League continue with unabated interest, while donations show the willingness of the people to sacrifice for the protection of their rights. ANOTHER SPRINGFIELD VICTORY Chalk up another victory for our aggressively loyal people of Springfield. There is no question about their winning in the end because their cause is right and just, and simply must prevail. Prejudiced whites of that city, led by a southerner, are trying to tire or "wear" them out. They (said prejudiced whites) evidently do not realize that they have a right to be protected "because" that was made over during the World War, to deal with and that hell will resemble the North Pole before our good people of Springfield, led by their determined women pickets trudging up and down the streets about that "jim crow" Fulton school, ankle deep in the snow and slush, will ever "give in." Every loyal "black man and woman" in the state of Ohio, and many good white friends, too, are with you, brothers and sisters of Springfield. When you hit the hot place freezes over, if necessary, to get your rights and those of your children, under the law. You are doing wonderfully well; keep it up.

Mard Fower would be difficult to beat. The following is taken from his delightful "Summer the first song we hear," he tells us, "is a Chaffinch's, and it is a song about which I have something to say. This word has indeed for some time been getting its song ready, and now, in all the splendor of spring plumage, is ringing it without a mistake all round; but do not suppose that it has been able to achieve this without hard practice. I have never seen the process described, and even of bird-lovers but few, I fancy, notice it; so it may not be amiss to put it down here. It is usually in the first week of February that I catch the first 'teeble effort, on some sunny morning in the broad walk at Oxford; but if the weather is fine I listen even earlier, and this year I heard the welcome sound on Jan. 31 in the same place." "Very fragmentary indeed is it when I first hear it at Oxford. Let me explain it by a comparison which may be startling but is none the less useful. Some of my younger friends who have learnt a song or two from me know the Chaffinch as the bowling bird,' because the only strain it can resemble the normal action of a bowlet at cricket. The slowish steps, three or four quicker ones, and a delivery made with some effort, describe fairly the bowler's action: two slowish notes, three or four quicker ones, and a jerk or twist of the voice—a quick rise and a fall—also make up the full and normal song of the bird. Now, when the practice is beginning, it is just as if an old bowler were to find himself incapable of getting much beyond his first two 100s. So with the bird; it is really more from the tone that I divine he is at work, than any recognition of the old familiar strain. But when I have once made sure, I listen and hear him struggling to get on a bolt, rushing valiantly at his quick notes, perhaps, and only stopping short at the final jerk. If the morning beige I shall no doubt hear even this last crowning glory of his song beely hinted at; and then, having got so far, an ardent and assiduous bird will sit on the same branch for an hour together and 'bowl' away in the wildest fashion, wide of the net at each delivery, frequently collapsing entirely in the middle of his action, but ever returning to the charge, determined to hit the wicket before he leaves his porch. I have often been the only audience while this has been going on, and once I remember laughing out loud at the absurdity of the performance. To anyone who knows well the full and perfect song, there is nothing more comical in nature; yet the bird is very much in earnest, for much of the coming season's happiness may depend on the results of this persistent practice. "Why the Chaffinch should stand almost alone among birds in the trouble he has with his song is more than I can explain; I know at present but one other whose song is not almost perfect from the first day of singing. If I am to make a guess, it would be that this bird's song is curious stereotyped to a particular form, which needs an effort each time it is gone through, and that to get it perfect a fair amount of warmth and bodily vigor is necessary; while others, whose range is more clastic, can accommodate their voices without acutous results. And I may call the Yellow-hammer as a witness to my theory; for he, whose song is also stereotyped in one mold—that which is familiar to us all as a little bit of bread and no cheese; we will rarely bring out his 'cheese' in his first spring effort, and is at all times liable to drop it, if he be in a lazy or melancholy mood." Had Been Young Himself. Jones was a kind-hearted butcher. One day he was going home with a mock of ice in his cart, but being cooked to dinner he left it in his shop. On coming into the shop after dinner he was surprised to see a small toy sitting on the ice. "Get off! You will be frozen," roared Jones. The boy did not get off, so Jones shouted at him .. second time. "Have you ever been a boy?" was the pitiful answer. "Why, yes," said Jones. "Did you ever have a father?" "Yes," returned Jones. "Did your father have a strap?" asked the boy. Then the light of understanding came to Jones, so he replied, softly: "Stay there, my dad, stay there."

CURATIONS Consider They Can Offer Better Service Without Marriage. Reasons for the refusal of so many women to marry nowadays and the compensations of a catelebate life for women are discussed by Earl Barnes in a recent number of the Popular Science Monthly. He tells us that there were more than 8,900,000 women in this country who were neither married, widowed nor divorced, or about 29.7 per cent. of all women above the age of 15 years. Scarcely any of the women among the 400,000 public school teachers in the country are married. Undoubtedly regulations in regard to married female teachers have had much to do with preventing marriages of these women, but the author is of the opinion that the "growth of democratic ideals which has been steadily working among women since 1870" is barely responsible. Women, he says, are no longer merely the "sex" but are individuals; a woman seeks fulfillment not only for personal liking, but for all the qualities of her varied personal life. The celibate woman retains her freedom of action. Through study, travel, art, science, or society, she may reach a degree of self-realization not always attained by her sister who marries. "The desire for service which lies so deep in the mature of all good women can often be more fully realized in a life of personal freedom than in one of marriage. At least there may be a different realization of very great value to the individual and to society. Such women as Clara Barton, Susan E. Anthony, and Jane Addams have brought gifts of service to mankind far beyond what they would probably have given in their own homes." The modern woman, he declares, has become self-conscious even awkwardly so in some cases, and has become a seeker after the pleasures of vital experience. Because of her superior intelligence she is likely to marry late if at all; if she is unable to find a man who measures up to her intellectual ideals she refuses to accept one beneath them. "The social emancipation of women bags far behind her intellectual and economic freedom, so that the young women we are considering still move socially in their family planes," he says. "The men in that group are too ignorant and too poor to suit her, and the men with whom she works grow her only as a stenographer, a teacher, or a journalist." HOW TO CUT ROSES There is a right and a wrong way to cut roses. The choice of the latter may seriously injure the blossom-producing properties of the plants, it is pointed out by specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. This applies particularly of course, to rose plants chosen and grown especially for cut-flower production. Such roses will be largely of the perpetual blooming sorts. When a rose is cut from such plants—tea roses or other perpetual bloomers—only two or three eyes of the current season's growth of that branch should be left on the plant. This should give the roses very long seems. Succeeding blossoms should be cut close to the ground. It will seem like destroying the bush to take so much of it, but if the object is the production of roses, the cutting away of the surplus wood will attain the desired end. If the spring pruning has not been sufficiently severe the plant is likely to have long, naked stalks and short aems to the flowers. With this character of growth only one or two strong leaf buds should be left on the branch when the flower is cut, so as to stimulate as much growth as possible from the base of the plant. The greatest temptation to leave wood is where there are two or more buds on one branch, some being small when the terminal one is open. This temptation to follow a bad practice can be avoided by pinching off all side shoots after a bud has formed on the end of a branch. This prevents the formation of two or more buds on one stalk. This summer pruning will encourage additional blooms on varieties which bloom more than once a year. Butter That Lasts The Grocer—Yes'm, you'll find this butter would be cheap at twice the money.

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 this purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury. It shall include the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor. (93 v. 161 3.) Section 6280. A person taken from officers of justice by a mob, and 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 such unlawful killing. Such sum may be paid for the maintenance of the family and education of the minor children of such person so lynched, if any survive him, until such children are of legal age, and then be distributed to the survivors, share and share alike, the widow receiving an amount equal to a child's share. If there be no widow or minor children, the widow receiving an amount shall be distributed among the next of kin according to the laws of the distribution of the personality of an intestate. Such sum so recovered shall not be a part of the estate of such person so lynched, nor be subject to any of his liabilities. (93 v 162 6.) Section 6283. A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7) Section 6285. An order to the commissiones of a county, against which such recovery has had, 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 the costs in the case 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 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 dis pursue such mob.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894: The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public 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 the goods, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, 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 person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. 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: Akron, O. April 25, 1919. Editor The Gazette Cleveland, O. Mear 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 ($550) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been a criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and injuries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was resolved. OUR LESSON We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement.

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 can and must be worked out at six per cent.
