Zion Cong, church is said to have 12 groups, each headed by a captain. Each of these groups is expected to raise $2,500 by Jan. 1, 1923. If this is done, they shall have raised $30,000 towards paying for the Jewish Temple which is on the market for $100,000. If the Congregational headquarters at New York either give or lend $15,000 towards this movement and, supposing these 12 groups each raise it quota, there, will be a deficit of $55,000 still to pay with a membership of 487. Query: How long will it take them to pay? Mind you, there is interest on the principle, the notes themselves, janitors, coal and generally upkeep and overhead expenses which must be kept up. Then there is the parsonage debt on E. 93d St. automobile debt. With all fairness to every the writer wants, to know of 487 members, or a possible I would take over such an obligation during these trying times?

THE PROPER REMEDY The American observers at the Lausanne conference are doing as effective work for the future welfare of Europe and for the conservation of American rights in the Near East as if they were duly accredited delegates to the meeting. Their announcement that the United States stands for the open door in Turkey created consternation among some of the other countries present, which had been bickering over a division of Turkish concessions among themselves, but the American policy has been accepted by Great Britain, and doubtless will be adopted by the conference. The constant competition among the nations of Europe for political and commercial advantage was the cause of the world war and is responsible for unsettled conditions there now. The United States does not need to become entangled in agreements with those nations in order to point out the error of their ways. The American observers at Lausanne have indicated the proper remedy for the Near East situation, and Europe can take a hint therefrom to apply to its otater troubles. EUROPE'S STANDING ORDER. Russia has ordered the overthrow of the United States, according to word from Moscow. So have several other nations of Europe. They differ only in the means by which they seek to accomplish their ends. The acceptance of the league of nations covenant by the United States at European behest, and the consequent unending drain upon American men and money, would as surely bring about the overthrow of this country as the communistic methods of the soviets. In meeting the former danger we have but to decline the invitation to enter the league, and we can forestall the latter menace by constant vigilance in the detection of what the radicals and communists are doing in our midst.

If he fails to get the nomination of either party he intends to head a party of his own. Mr. Ford's conception of his duty to the nation is well illustrated in his attempt to get control of the Muscle Shoals power plant. At an insignificant fraction of what that investment cost the taxpayers of the United States, Mr. Ford proposed that it should be given to him under terms that would enable him to add many millions to his own income through the sale of power to others and the utilization of some of it for his own factories. His widely advertised concern for the farmers and their need for cheaper fertilizer was largely camouflage to conceal his real motive. If, as a private citizen, Mr. Ford countenanced and encouraged such a raid on the national treasury, by what standard would his actions be guided if he were in the White House? --- ACTS AND FACTS. "Congress in acts, if not in words, has declared that there shall be as little trade with other nations as possible," remarks the N. Y. Journal of Commerce. But the news sheet of that same paper carries the information that exports for the first month following the passage of the new tariff law were nearly $60,000,-000 greater than for the previous month, and the statistics of imports will show that the new tariff rates are very far from prohibitive, as the Journal predicted they would be. GLOBE THEATER LEADS! A representative of The Gazette dropped into the Globe theater, Wednesday evening, and found just what he expected. The large room house was packed with an enthusiastic audience that was so pleased with the exceptionally fine show on the bill, this week, that it was making its applause heard for fully half a block away. Montgomery & McLain, late stars of the "Hello 1821" Company in their delightful budget entitled "Bits from Broadway" set a rapid pace that came up by Walker & Brown, Coleman & Johnson, Houze and Hugh Turner, monologist. They formed a combination of high class entertainers—singers, dancers, comedians, etc.—that we do not believe can be excelled. Any of our readers who have not been to the Globe, this week, should not fall to if they can possibly arrange to do so. The evening's entertainment is more than a tonic; it is positively helpful, so very pleasing and thoroughly satisfactory in every way. Manager Bob Davis is always on hand to see that all treated properly and taken care of. He certainly knows the show business "from a to z, and then some." Next week, he has a GREAT surprise for the Globe's hundreds of regular patrons and all who attend the theater. He assures us that it is to be "the most carefully selected show of the year." Since he has "made good," each week, since the opening of the Globe, this season, we are confidently looking forward to an entertainment de luxe, next week, and know we will not be disappointed.

Many stories of whalers and whaling have been written, but no fiction has ever done justice to the courage and daring, the heart-breaking labor, the ternure privations and the herismol which were part of the day's work of the Yankee whaleman—who were really founders of American commerce, says a writer in the Boston Herald. A Hyatt Verilis new book, "The Real Story of a whaler," gives a true and unvarnished idea of the whaleman's life. In addition to the perils of the sea to which merchant sailors are exposed, says the author, the whaleman faces innumerable dangers absolutely unknown to other seamen, and yet the losses among whaling vessels and BUY A PAIR DUN will We carry a full line We also carry the full Bring in your entire f great saving to you. ```markdown ``` THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. DECEMBER 16, 1922 PRIME SPORT NEWS --- Fear Sikl's "Frame-Up" Story, Paris, France. Dec. 12. — The French boxing federation announces that it is ready to authorize a fight between Battling Sikl and Georges Carpentier under the following conditions: the receipts must go to the aid of some fund of national importance; the contest must be organized by the federation and financially controlled by representatives of the fund; all monies collected, including the sums from photographic and moving picture rights, shall be paid over to the fund. The only deductions permitted will be for rent of the hall, unless, as is hoped, the hall be given free, and the expenses of attendants. There will be no free seats. The members of the federation, officials, referees, judges, timekeepers, seconds, managers, boxers and representatives must all pay an admissible fee. The federation also makes it a condition that Sikl appear before an investigating committee and justify the charges he has made. All somewhat amusing, isn't it? Paris, France—Battling Siki has refused to appear before the investigating committee appointed by the French Boxing Federation, which held its first session Saturday, in an attempt to clear up the Carpentier-Siki frameup charges. The Senegalese, through his counsel, sent a letter to the committee saving that inasmuch as the federation had already taken away from him his license and title of champion without giving him a hearing, thus placing him under the necessity of suing them before the courts, he failed to see why they should ask to hear him now, as it might cause pretudice to the legal action which would be heard by a tribunal. The committee held its second meeting, Tuesday. In a letter addressed to the press, Siki has reiterated the charges that the fight between him and Georges Carpentier, which was won by him, had been "fixed" for him to lose to Carpentier but he fooled the "fixers." Paris, France.—Georges Carpentier believes that the best place to settle the controversy, over his recent defeat by Battling Sik, is in the ring. Writing to Le Journal, the French boxer says: "Here is what I say to Ski: their crews were no greater than in other professions of the sea. Many of the ships went forth time after time on cruises of several years' duration, sailed to the uttermost parts of the world, braved the elements of the frigid and the tropic zones on every sea, held their own most credibly thru several generations of skippers, and are still strong, staunch and seaworthy today. Many an old whaleman sailed forth from New Bedford or some other port in the same ship thru out his long life, and never had a mistap and never lost a man on all his voyages. One Nantucket captain, over 80 years of age, boasted that in the years he had been whaling—he commenced as a boy—his ship had never touched bottom, that not a man had ever been lost or abandoned his vessel, that no man had ever been off duty over a week on account of illness or injuries, that he had never lost but one spar, that he had never returned without a full cargo of oil, and that he had never passed a day at sea without going a loft himself, save in the heaviest sales. This man was not exceptional; there were scores, yes hundreds, who would say as much, for the Yankee whaling captains were unequaled seamen, born navigators, and never shriek their duty; but thru fair weather or soul, thru calm and storm, amid vast leeches or roaring breakers, courageously followed their quarry round the world and back. Of all dangers which beset the whaleman, perhaps the least expected was that of a whale ramming the ship itself, and yet this happened many times, and many a ship was sent to the bittom by a maddened whale swashing in her planks with the tremendous force of his massive bulk and enormous strength. But of all the shipwrecks caused by running onto a whale, that of the ship Union, of Nantucket, Capt. Edward Gardner, is the most noteworthy and interesting. The Union sailed from Nantucket for Brazil on Sept. 19, 1807, and when twelve days out and while proceeding Siki Refuses to Appear "The Tide Turning." Notwithstanding his disqualification, and the disqualification I might incur, I offer to meet him at any date he likes, in public or private. Should he be ready to put up a stake, myself to pay to take a stake or to offer, I am absolutely certain I would finish Siki this time in less than three rounds." Interest in the controversy extends far beyond the sporting public and the affair is receiving more attention than the Lausanne conference. I'Auto says Carpentier, Descamps and others are active, contenting themselves with calling Siki a prevaricator, instead of demanding that the boxing federation join them in making a complete investigation. The article, which was written before Carpentier expressed his desire for another meeting with the boxing federation of welcoming Deputy Diagne's efforts in behalf of the Senegalese as an attempt to purify sport, treats him as an enemy of boxing. That Second Sikl-"Carp" Go. It is interesting to note that Carpentier has never redeemed a knockout defeat. The records show that Carp was knocked out by Mazoril, Gloria, Buck Shine, Young Snowball, Joe Jeanette, Henri Piet, the Dixie Kid, Frank Klaus, Billy Papke and Jack Dempsey, also that he never consented to a return bout with a single one of these men. Klaus, Papke and the Dixie are former him another but Dempsey is prologue declined. Furthermore, it is entirely probable that Carp isn't the battler he was before he met Dempsey. For one thing he broke his thumb on the American defender. Once a fighter seriously hurts his punching hand he seems to be gravely handicapped. Against Sikl, Carp not only broke the same thumb again, but cracked three or four other fingers besides. It will be months before the hurts are definitely healed, and even then they will probably be somewhat touchy and temperamental. This talk of Sikl and Carpentier getting together again immediately in a "glory" fight sounds mighty pretty, but it is probably Sikl that hurts him. Carp is entirely too troublesome in their first meeting when he had two fairly good hands. It isn't likely that he would care to mingle with him again at this moment when both of his hands are busted. under easy sail at a speed of seven knots, she suddenly brought up against a whale. The shock was so great that those on board thought the vessel had run onto a rock until the animal was seen and a hasty examination showed that the planking on the starboard bow had been smashed in and two timbers had been broken. The pumps were started, but the water rapidly gained and the crew prepared to leave the ship. The accident occurred at 10 o'clock at night—it was no doubt owing to the darkness that the whale was not sighted—and by midnight the boats were lowered and pulled away from the sinking vessel. A heavy sea was running and the crew of sixteen men were scattered among three boats. Fearing that the boats might become separated in the darkness, and in order to give more shifts at the oars, one boat was abandoned and the men were divided equally in the two remaining boats, which then headed for the Azores, over 600 miles distant. By October 2nd the men managed to rig up sails, but during the next two days the wind rose to a gale, the extemporized sails were carried away and the two boats were lashed together and allowed to drift. Owing to the haste in which the men left the ship, very few provisions and an insufficient supply of water had been put in the boats, and by October 4th the men were put on rations consisting of but three quarts of water and eighteen small cakes for the whole company for each twenty-four hours. Starvation was staring them in the free, their thirst was terrible, and their case seemed hopeless, when on October 9th, they sighted the island of Flores and landed safely after being aurif for seven days and eight nights, during which time they had rowed, sailed and drifted for 600 miles. Sometimes stories of a "mad whale" were spread among the whalers—tales of some of exceptional ferocity and courage—a whale warrior who destroyed lives and boats and invariably occupied, and when at last some vessel captured such a fighter and identified him by the irons found in his body, the report was circulated among all the whalers for and near.

W. Such an accident was reported by the ship Hector of New Bedford. In October, 1832, the boats were lowered and started after a large whale, but before they were within striking distance the creature turned, stove one of the boats and threw its occupants into the sea. The captain's boat hurried to their rescue, but the furious, fighting whale dashed at it, seized it in his enormous, armed jaw, and chewed and smashed it to pieces.

The Maryland Academy of Sciences mentions the following tribes which have left their imprint on the state, although the names now in use have been changed somewhat: The Seco-cocomocos, the Patapscicos, the Pamacacacks, the Yawacomicos, the Patuxents, the Wighcomicos, the Nanticokes and the Delawares—Baltimore News. Book'ets "The railroads mention the salt air, the hotels mention the salt air, the pier people mention the salt air—" "Well?" "Do they all collect for it?"—Louisville Courier-Journal. Why Girls Don't Throw Straight. It has always been an interesting fact that girls cannot throw straight. There are two reasons. First, a girl's clavicle or collar bone, being shorter than a boy's, gives her a smaller play of forearm. Second, direction in overhand throwing depends chiefly upon the shoulders and chest being carried forward with the swing of the arm. With a boy this is the heaviest part of his body, but a girl is heaviest at the hips. Consequently, instead of the girl's body swinging straight forward, it frequently turns around at the waist, thus completely spoiling the aim. FACTS People who Advertise Can sell Goods. People who sell Goods Can make Money. People who make Money can advertise goods. The Best Advertising Medium is "The Old Reliable" GAZETTE. People go where they are invited —A. T. Stewart. Advertising is as necessary an expenditure as the payment of taxes or rent. —W. Atlee Burpee. Constant and persistent advertising is a sure prelude to wealth—Stephen Girard. Nothing except the mint can make money without advertising. —W. E. Gladstone. Printer's ink will make more of the public wear a pathway to your store. See? The merchant who considers riches a burden should never advertise. His store may be like a summer resort in January. Do YOU advertise? While it is true that occasional advertising will bring extra business, it is equally true that constant, persistent advertising will keep business growing during "dull days." The merchant who never advertises under any circumstance or condition may imagine he is wise, but his competitors have no desire to disturb his imagination. It's a good time to "get awake." THE MAN WHO DARES. "I honor the man who in the conscious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner.

CHURCH BUSINESS METHODS Companies Which Lend Churches Money—How Their Incomes Are Raleed. ‘The business end of the modern church {s managed in various ways. Most of the denominations have central organization society, such as the Church Extension Society of the Methodists or the State Church As- sociation of the Congregationalists, to which they contribute and through which they may either lend or bor- row money. ‘There is a British company which loans only to churches, says the Book- Keeper. ‘There is a Canadian com- peny which loans money on Catholic property at one-half of 1 per cent less than to any other denomination. In England individual churches end societies and boards of trustecs have large powers in the adminis- tration of trusts created by legacies or other gifts, ‘The established churches in Engiand hold millions of pounds in such trusts. Some of these are several hundred years old, and having invested in inalienable real estate derive their income from ground rents on uinety- nine year leases which have been several times renewed. Many Non- conformist churches hold similar trusts. L this country there are naturally no such safeguards unless the case of Trinity perish, New York, with holdings beyond ' $500,009,000, two: i IS IT OF ANY oie oe | ‘TEND FOR BRIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible members of which are in favor of sub- mitting to diserimination. on the claim that their race “al- ways will be discriminated against.” The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimina- tion, and are winning even s0- cial rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winming because they will die rather than sub- 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 qqual rights; they are by na: ture without self-respect and have no ‘guts.’” The world re- spects only thoze who resent and resist proseriptions for race, Let us be worthy of the abo- itionists, worthy cf our own fathers who have died in every war to vindieate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race diserimination may continue.

PEODCTES 08) GR a: RE garded as a parallel. Enormous sums of money lost in churehes which have died or dis banded has led to the movement for the consolidation of financial In terests. And as the Congrezational isis have been large losers they are perfecting one of the best business systems for the avoidance of such catastrophes in future. In Connecticut alone $2,000,000 was buried in defunct churches of thi- section. The medium employed to disburse the sum left in the treasury when the church Is discovered to be mori 1 bas hitherto been one of three: First, it might be divided among the members; second, the minister might be continued in office until the funds are exhausted—in one instance $50,000 was used up this way, pro- viding an ample income for the lucky incumbent: third, the property misht be sold and the proceeds turned over to another church. With these shining examples before them the National Council of Congre gational Churches at once set about ‘a remedy. A committee on church property has succeeded in having in troduced into every theological sem inary of the sect regular lectures on church administration, which give special attention to legal and bus- iness matters. ‘Andover and Yale have a course on “Legal Knowledge Important for the Working Pastor.” Atlanta has lee- tures by laymen, and Chicago nun- bers among her lectures an architect, tho president of @ manufacturing company and several attorneys, at one time including the Governor of Minots. ‘The Congregational Church has a ‘Territorial Association in Hawaii to ‘accumulate church property in trust, and two years ago the American board secured permission from the ‘Turkish Government to hold in trust the property of :ts churches, schools and colleges in that country.

Church, still deeply op- posed io ihc source of revenue. ‘There are in New York city only three or four churches of this de nomination which are “pewed,” and the pew enterprise in that church entire in the United States is no more than 50 years old. ‘Among the Jews, on the contrary, not only is the pew rental practically mandatory but is {s considered ad- visable to keep a mortage on the property, since it Is an essential ele- ment in’ their belief that the people should be given a burden which all may share, that may be carried over from one generation to auother. ‘The departure from this idea in a synagogue in Newport, R. 1, where the worshippers are wealthy and the building endowed, has shown the goundness of the reasoning, for with the absence of the need for effort interest has steadily declined. On the other h:nd theJews have no missions in foreign countries. They believe it unnecessary to proselytire. Once @ year, however, they send money to Palestine as a gift offering, the tribute of sentiment. Nor has the large synagogue any depend encies. It stands alone, with no mis sion chapels to claim its help. ‘Among the New Thought cults like the Ethical Culture Society and the Christian Science bodies the church to fulfil its purpose must be without fe. -umbrance. The Scientists in this have followed in the path of the Catholic churches and no building is consecrated until it is fully paid for. ‘The revenues of churches differ largely according to the sect. The in- come of St. Patrick's Cathedral parish ot New York, the most important Catholic see in the United States with the exception of Baltimore, the sea. of Cardinal Gibbons, reaches no higher figure than $75,000 annually, while Grace Church can count on REASON FOR BLINDNESS A Scotsman and a Jew called on a famous eye specialist.

To me, the beauty of music cannot be de scribed in words. ‘There seems to be no state of mind that one can be in in which music is not welcome. Even In the Bible we read that David played on the harp for Saul to quiet bis troubled mind. We need music every day in our home more than any other place, for the good of our mind and body. “The benefits of music are also reaching the hospitals, the homes of the sick, and busy people after a hard day's work find it refreshing to come home and hear its soothing strains. “We also enjoy music in our homes of learning—the schools, The school orchestra and the songs we sing in assembly make us feel like starting ‘out on the day's study in an excellent mood.” American “Moily Maguires.” The first organization known as the “Molly Maguires” was formed tn Ireland, with the object, it 1s believed of generally misusing process-server and others engaged in the prosecution and eviction of tenants, and was com posed of young men who, in some lo calities, assumed women’s clothing. blackened their faces, and otherwise @isgulsed themselves, the Detrott News remarks.

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.) Springfield, O. — Supt. McCord and the Board of Education received another setback, Monday morning, when Judge Frank W. Gelger of the Court of Common Pleas overruled the demurrier of the board to the petition of Chas. Springfield and W. Gelger of 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 our children. The court's ruling referred 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 Gelger said it held that the court had, in 1887, repealed the specific statute which permitted the establishment of exclusively colored schools that separate schools for colored children have been abol- IS MONSTER COW STILL ON EARTH? DID ONCE, AND WAS CHAMPION MILKER Amazing Are the Remains of Prehistoric Animals Unearthed in South America. How would you like to own a cow twenty feet high and forty-seven feet long, with adders enough to give twenty times the quantity of milk offered up by the champion milkers of the day? Or to live in a land where a rat is the size of a St. Bernhard dog, and you were obliged to keep a cat the size of a tiger and a dog the size of a horse to chase away the pesky rodents? And where, for amusement, you could enjoy the antics of your little pet horse, the size of a dog? Sounds like a dream of an opium fond, doesn't it? Makes you think of Rider Haggard or a tale by H. G. Wells. But such conditions once were undergone by more man, and not such a tremendous number of years ago, either. Indeed, so comparatively recent was it that there is reason to believe that the grypotherium—as the antitheoretical cow was termed—still exists, and that somewhere on the broad plateaus of Patagonia it friskes about the landscape, whisking its fifteen-foot tail above its ten-foot legs and enjoying life to full. In 1897 Dr. Moreno, director of the La Plata museum in Argentina, discovered remains on the boundary between Chili and Patagonia that led to the unearthing of the remains of a grypotherium in such an excellent state of preservation that practically the entire skeleton now is being mounted in the American Museum of Natural History in New York. Moreno discovered pieces of a tough, thick skin, with bony patches and three-inch-long hair, hanging on a tree near Last Hope Melt. Investigation proved that government officials had secured the remainder. Further search led to a cave where the skin had been found originally, and, when three feet of debris had been dug from the bottom, the remains were unearthed. More skin was discovered. There were also the bones of the animal; two awls made from the leg bones of dog; the skull of a prehistoric man, and evidence that the grypotherium had been maintained in a state of domesticity. There was a quantity of cut hay. There was the skeleton of a rat the size of a dog; of a horse no bigger; of a tiger-sized cat and a horse-sized dog. Ashes and charred wood showed that the primitive occupant had understood the methods of fire and it is believed that the grypotherium was kept exactly as a cow today. The huge prehistoric creature had an extraordinary series ofudders in the region of the thorax and would have yielded the milk of twenty cows. Conditions led Dr. Moreno to believe that the life of the entire family had been snuffed out by a falling bowler, which crashed off from the upper portion of the cave and buried them beneath it. With the change of time the average grypotherium, following the order of descent, altered its size and shape to meet altered conditions of nature. The result is found in the little tree ished, and 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 1820-21, and that the enrollment for the present school year was about the same that before the fact that the board of education is attempting, 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 of said colored children; and that they are not compulsory to enter into porate 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. sloth so common today in tropic countries. But the grypotherium was as nought compared to the remains of a dinosaur recently unearthied by Prof. Earl Douglas, of the Carnegie Museum of Pittsburgh, in Jensen, Utah. The specimen is perfect and the biggest ever unearthied in this country measuring 135 feet in length, with a neck 65 feet long, and thigh bones 2 feet in diameter. Which would mean that the animal could lean against a ten-story building and pick cherries off the flagpole or stretch half a city block in length and fill the open space from pavement to pavement. Of course, the frolicsome grypotherium wasn't quite as cumbersome as that around the caveman's home. If it stood upright on its hind legs it would have reached only to the top of a four-story building, which isn't so hard when one considers it. How the caveman milked his pet is a question involving higher mathematics as complicated as those employed by the builders of the pyramids. It is inferred that he borrowed the outfit of a friendly lightning rod agent or else climbed a tree. But one thing is certain. Milk famines never bothered the caveman. Of Course. "I'll never play poker with a palmist again." "Why not?" "Why, he could read my hands." Not the Only Time. Heck—"They say that when a man is drowning, his past life is brought up before him." Peck—"That happens also when he has a quarrel with his wife." That since he tries 'most every game, he plays playing now. PAPER MILK BOTTLES Ane Pronounced Antiseptic and Sterile by Dairyfen and Health Officials. Paper milk bottles are now taking the place of glass-bottles. The paper bottle is made of chemically pure white sulphite paper of the best quality and is paraffined after it is shaped. It is conical, with the top pressed together and closed with a positive metal seal which makes it impossible to tamper with the container or open it without destroying the package for further use. No glue or other injurious adhesive material enters into its manufacture. The bottle is made of two pieces of paper. One circular piece forms the bottom, the other one is a guadralateral piece which forms a cone. This cone is sealed or fastened with a metal slip running the full length of the bottle. The paraffin bath thru which the bottle passes after it has been made is kept at a constant temperature of 218 degrees Fahrenheit, which insures its being antiseptic and sterile. The objection advanced by many housewives that they are unable to see the cream line on the milk thru the single service bottles heretofore tried out is overcome in this package, as it is translucent, and the cream line is plainly visible. Regarding the need of a single service container for milk a member of a board of health, said: "Milk should long ago have been delivered in a single service package. The milk bottles, which go from house to house, unquestionably spread disease. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. DECEMBER 16, 1922 The paper milk bottle has been tried by one of the large metropolitan dairies, which, after putting out more than 20,000 of the containers, reports that the result is satisfactory. DARBER BUSINESS GOOD New Tonsorial Luxuries Offset the Introduction of the Safety Razor. "To read the advertisements in the newspapers," said the boss barber, "you'd think that all creation was now using safety razors. As a matter of fact lots of men are using them, and this to some extent does affect the barber business, but not to the extent you might imagine. "You want to remember that many of the men now using safety razors are men who before taking them up shaved themselves with razors of the ordinary sort and so they are not shaving customers lost to us, though we do lose from them the work formerly had in honing their razors and keeping them in order. "At the same time we have lost some regular shaving customers who have never shaved themselves but who have now taken up safeties, and with them too we have lost their honing jobs; and we do not now get as shaving customers all of the young men who in the ordinary course of things would have come to us when they began shaving, young men who would never have shaved themselves with the ordinary razor but who have begun shaving with a safety. "On the other hand some young men beginning now to shave come to us, starting in with us and continuing with us quite in the old way; the net result of all these things being that the volume of shaving business done in barber shops now remains about stationary. "While this branch of its business may now not be increasing the barber shop is still far from declining; on the contrary its business is now greater than ever, showing in all its branches taken together an increase equal to the normal growth that might be expected in any business. Nobody has yet invented a self-operated safety hair cutting machine, and so men still come to us to have their hair cut and their beards trimmed; and then there is now more luxury in barber shops and more wants supplied than ever before. In fact the modern is about as different from the old time barber shop as anything you could think of."—New York Sun. BOASTS GREEN PETUNIAS Florists Are Attracted to Discovery in Oregon By one of nature's curious "accedents," a green petunia has been envolved at the state fair grounds, which is attracting attention of florists. Discovery of this floral flower was made by Prof. Peck of the Oregon agricultural college. So far as Prof. Peck knows, no petunia of this color has ever been grown, and he intends to preserve slips from the plant in order to grow a full bed of this peculiar flower next year. In the riot of purple, red, pink, white and other shades of petunia on the grounds, the green petunia is almost lost, but close investigation will show the observer the blooms scattered among their more brilliant neighbors. How the green petunia originated is yet one of nature's secrets, but Prot Peck says that it may have sprouted either from seedling stock, or as it is more inclined to believe, be a bad variation from the Pride of Portland, or Irvington Beauty. These two varieties were planted in the beds early this season.—New York Times To keep canaries in song, a frequent change of diet is necessary. A Quick Reply. The repatriate of the conductorette may not be so full-blooded as that of her male counterpart, but its raper-like qualities are decidedly more effective. "AlloA, Ethel!" shouted a jovial carman to one of the fare ladies one chilly morning recently. "Feeling cold, old dear? Why don't her turn yer collar up like me?" "Well, you see," sweetly replied the girl. "I've got a clean neck." The funniest thing about a big man is that he is apt to have a little wife. FAMOUS AS ANIMAL'S FRIEND Irishman Father of Law Which Almed to Put a Stop to Their III Treatment. Richard Martin introduced into the British parliament in 1822 an act providing punishment for the "ill treat- ment of cattle," and by the force of his personality forced its passage as a law. "Humanity" Martin, so named by King George IV because of his intro- duction and support of the law, was an Irish nobleman with immense estates in Galway. Less than a year after Martin's death at Boulogne, France, in 1834, his original act was amended, and bull and bear baiting and cock fighting were prohibited throughout the British isles. Two years after the passage of the act Martin organized the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Queen Victoria later giving her approval to the addition of the word "Royal" to the title. From this society originated the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. THE COLORS OF FLOWERS How They Alter by Cultivation—Some Familiar Instances. In general all the flowers of the same species in the wild state have the same color. For example, all plants of crowfoot or buttercup and dandelion have yellow flowers. In a few species different colors are found. For example, the flowers of the milkwort may be blue, violet, red of white. Much greater variation is shown by cultivated plants. In these the variation of color of the flowers appeared long ago, but in recent years many new colors have been produced which had either not hitherto been observed or which if they did appear occasionally were not selected for preservation and development. The floriculturists of the present day, says the Umschan, carefully observe and endeavor to fix every new shade, even if it is not particularly beautiful, for the desideratum is novelty, and there is no telling what will please popular taste. A species of primrose in the wild state always has lemon yellow flowers, which vary only slightly in tint. Cultivation has produced both lighter and darker shades, but until recently no color but yellow. Hence it was the more surprising when, a few years ago, a pure blue variety was produced, which has since retained its general color but has developed all shades, from the palest sky blue of the cornflower. The Chinese primrose, when cultivated in the garden, bore until recently only red and white flowers. In this species also other colors have lately been produced, not only violet but also blue, though not so pure a blue as that of the species first mentioned. Another example is offered by the gladiolus, which formerly bore only white and red flowers, but has recently developed a blue flowering variety. A case of a somewhat different character is presented by the asters, which have long shown a great variety of colors, but in which variety a great many new shades have been produced, including some which would not at one time have been considered beautiful; for example, copper color. Very numerous, on the other hand, are the species which have long shown great variation in color and have recently developed many new shades, with the exception of blue. Especially conspicuous is the dahlia, which is now found in every color except blue, although many propagators are making earnest efforts to produce a blue dahlia, which would bring great profit to its originator. A blue carnation would be equally valuable, but it has not yet been produced, although the colors of carnations have lately been enriched by many new shades. The new varieties of canna also show great diversity of color, including almost pure white and a beautiful light pink, but a blue canna has not yet appeared. In the begonia not only blue is ackling but also all shades from red to violet. Finally we may mention the variety of poppy called the Shirley, which is greatly admired for its play of color. Here however, the colors range only from white to rose and vermillion. Blue and violet colors are completely wanting, and so is yellow, which is very common in the begonia. Finally there are species which, potwalthstanding many years of cultivation, have shown little variation in the color of their flowers or have produced only new shades but new colors. Among these are the fuchsias, which show only various shades of red. A blue or a yellow fuchsia would be a curiosity. Another example is furnished by Cyclamen persicum, in which many years of cultivation have only changed the original color scheme of a dark red throat and a white or pink tip so far as to deepen the red throat to crimson and almost to violet, and on the other hand to effect it altogether, producing a pure white flower. Quite recently, however, an approximation to a yellow has been obtained by the production of a salmon pink cyclamen. Similar cases are furnished by the Alpine forget-me-not, in which merely the shade of the original blue color has been slightly altered by cultivation, and by the marigold, the colors of which vary only from yellow and orange to brown. From the foregoing remarks it is evident that although very many new colors have recently been produced by cultivation in the flowers of numerous species of plants the production of these chances is entirely dependent upon the original predisposition to variation possessed by the plant. Without these tendencies to variation no new color can be produced, either by the gardener or by natural selection, for if there is no variation selection is impossible. Polite to Make Noise While Eating. When an Abyssinian and his guest sit down to the table a woman is stationed on each side of them, not to dine, but to see that they get plenty to eat. These women cut the food and cram it into the mouths of the men with as much speed as possible. To show their appreciation of the food which is set before them, the Abyssinians must make as much noise as possible in eating. The man who can manage the largest bites and make the most noise while doing so is held in high esteem by his fellows, and considered quite well bred. The women vie with one another in trying to see who can feed the Abyssinian men the swiftest, and express keen pleasure when their particular charge makes the most noise while eating. Why?

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 in terms and regardless of race or color, then the attorney of the accommodations, advancement of the accommodations, privilege 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-gerrieved thereby to be recovered in the 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 position that 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.
