Public Property No Place in Which to Practice Racial Discrimination in Social Affairs, as Between Citizens—Thomas' Protest. WASHINGTON, D. C.—Neval H. Thomas of Dunbair High School has protested to the Postal Service Committee of the Postoffice Department against an entertainment to be given in the city postoffice for all of the employees to which our clerks are refused invitations. In his letter Mr. Thomas explains how the postal publication, "The Postal Spirit," states that the entertainment is for each and all of the employees in the postal service, including the railway mall clerks, yet white clerks are quietly being handed printed invitations in the presence of their Afro-American co-workers; that the alleged purpose of the gathering is for the promotion of the esprit de corps of the working force is defeated by denial of this courtesy, and the infliction of this insult to the most efficient and dutiful employees in the service. "Upon no business or ethical principle can this discrimination be defended," Mr. Thomas writes. "It cannot be said that it is a private entertainment, for then it would have no place in our building which is supported by all of the people, and where no person can be legally excluded. It is a humiliating experience indeed, for the faithful Afro-American employees to be placed beyond the pale of consideration in a great public institution like the postoffice. You are impairing the morale of the service by such discrimination in the face of your announced purpose of improving it." Mr. Thomas then appealed over his head to the Postmaster, General, only to be told that it was for the employees to settle, that the Postmaster General was only an invited guest." He should now appeal directly to President Harding. Thank God for Ohio's wonderful "Springfield" victory over segregation! Long live "The Old Reliable" Gazette! BISHOP CLAIR SAILS FOR LIBERIA Formerly Pastor of the Ashbury Methodist Episcopal Church, Washington, D. C.—Native Chiefs Appeal to Him. New York City.—Bishop Matthew W. Clair, resident bishop of Liberia for the Methodist Episcopal Church, sailed from New York aboard the steamship, "West Hesseltine" of the Bull Line, for Monrovia, Liberia, Africa, to resume his duties directing the mission forces. With Bishop Robert E. Jones of New Orleans, he was the first of the race to be elected to full rank in the episcopacy of his denomination. This occurred at the General Conference, Des Moines, Iowa, in 1920. For many years, previously, he had been recognized as one of the most able leaders in the Church. In Liberia, Bishop Clair has made tours far into the interior, visiting the native chieftains and local kings, all of whom begged him to send teachers and SUMNER H. LARK, ESQ. Made an Assistant District Attorney in Kings County by Judge Dodd, A Democrat of Brooklyn. New York City.—Sumnor H. Lark who, for a number of years, has resided and practiced law in Brooklyn was sworn in as an assistant district attorney in the County Court building there, recently. Mr. Lark is the first of our people to receive such recognition in that borough, and draws a yearly salary of $4,000. He is a member of Tammany hall. Judge Charles G. Dodd, who, before his election to the office of district attorney, was, for a number of years, a city magistrate, had an excellent opportunity to know of Counselor Lark's ability and qualifications as a lawyer. Mr. Lark, printer, editor and lawyer, received the degree of bachelor of arts from Howard University, Washington, D.C., and his law degree from the Brooklyn Law School, and is regarded as one of the substantial citizens of the borough in which he lives. Judge Dodd, a Democrat, is to be complimented and praised for making this appointment, the highest ever given an Afro-American in Brooklyn. Mr. Lark was assigned at once by Judge Dodd to appear in the Seventh District Court. FRANCIS H. WARREN. The death in Grace Hospital Detroit, at the age of 53, of Atty. Francis H. Warren removes a fighter for the single tax of remarkable earnestness and ability. As a writer and speaker he had a clear and forceful manner as well as a keen and logical mind. Those who had the privilege of knowing him, recognized him as a man of rare intellect as well as of learning, culture and refinement. For some time he edited and published a local weekly devoted to the Negro race, to which he belonged. In this paper he did much useful propaganda work. He attended several of the national conferences of Single Taxes and was one of the speakers at the banquet which closed the gathering in Washington 1914. As a splendid coworker and comrade in a great struggle for humanity, as a broad-minded citizen, harboring no snobish racial, class or religious prejudices, as a true democrat devoted to the brotherhood of man, his memory should be held in honor.—The National Single Tax League Bulletin, Wilmington, Del. preachers among them. Bishop Clair was here for some months in the interests of his mission field and spoke many times to white and colored audiences. A World Record! New York City.—In Miss Lula M. Cargill. clerk in the Varlick street branch of the New York postoffice, the postal authorities here belleve they have the champion letter sorter of the world. For speed and dexterity, they assert that Miss Cargill holds the palm over any other postal employee either in this country or abroad. In a space of eight hours, she sorted 30,215 pieces of mall, more than a letter a second. Yes, she is a member of the race. Benj. M.

SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS Women Members of The School Board Valuable Witnesses Judge Summers Ably Assisted by Atty. Daniels—Supt. McCord "Showed Up"—The Ely-Arnett Bill— Prospects for Victory Very Bright, Indeed (Special to The Gazette.) SPRINGFIELD, O.—A long drawn out will contest delayed the final hearing, in the "jim crow" school permanent injunction case, from Thursday to Saturday. School-board witnesses were heard, only Mrs. Clara Frye, one of the two women members of the board, being called by our side. She corroborated the statement of Mrs. Garver, the other woman member of the board, published in last week's Gazette. Supt. G. E. McCord, board members, H. C. Copenhaver and Dr. Stanley S. Hutchins, and Principal John Shuaker were the principal witnesses, McCord and the male members of the board resorted to the usual avasive, deceptive and misleading statements in a vain effort to bolster up their sorry case, made so largely because of the testimony of the two women members of the board and the "Sun" reporter. Upon cross examination by former Justice of the Ohio Supreme-Court A. N. Summers, McCord was forced to admit that it was not expected that any white children would attend Fulton school under the new "jim crow" arrangement. He also admitted that no white child would be forced to attend it. "Promotion" (?) cards of white children in the Fulton school district assigned to them other schools. None of our children in Fulton school were so of the prompted or assigned. On the contrary, some of them in other school districts were "promoted" (?) to the "jim crow" Fulton school; of course to further McCord's segregation scheme. Questioned as to his knowledge of the prerogatives of a superintendent of schools, McCord admitted that he did not know. At this point, Judge Summers informed him that the laws of Ohio did not give superintendents of schools the right to arbitrarily transfer children; that that right rested with the board of education, and that the superintendent's perogative, like that of "Mr. Bumble," was to obey. Copenhayer's and Hutchings' testimony was practically the same as McCord's. Then came the arguments of Judge Summers and Atty. Geo. W. Daniels. Attys. John M. Cole and Thos. D. Hodge, for the school board, announced that they would brief on Monday, Jan. 22, "23. Judge Summers delivered a masterful address in which he exorcized Supt. McCord and the male members of the school board for the pitiful attempt to escape responsibility. Comparing McCord's "explanation" to the story of "Geo. Washington and the cherry tree" he said, had it been George Washington McCord he would have said: "The tree borrowed the hatchet and chopped itself down." Declaring that his own interest in the case was purely in maintaining the law and that, irrespective of the personal feelings or opinions of any the case must be decided according to the law. Relating the act of doing away with the remonstrants of Ohio's so-called "Black Laws," Judge Summers told of his embarrassment, while of his immersion in Springfield in 1886, in defending the school board at that time, where an injunction had been asked by James Buford and James Nelson, two of our early settlers, to restrain the building of any more "jim crow" school-edifice; that the suit had reached the court court when it was ended by the passage of the Ely-Arnett bill (in February) forever doing away with (legal) separate schools for "our people in this state. Answering the defendants' contention that there was no cause for action, Judge Summers asserted that his clients had been injured and it was their right to seek redress (and damages, too), quoting from Byron, "Hereditary bondmen! Know ye not who would be free, themselves; must strike the blow!" Atty. Daniels followed, attacking Supt. McCord's attempt to deceive by transferring white children on their "promotion" cards, etc., and making a strong argument also. Judge Krapp announced that it would be impossible for him to announce his decision before this week Saturday. Atty. James was compelled to attend a board meeting, Saturday, of the N. & I. department (of Wilberforce University) of which he is president. Zion Baptist church revival made it, necessary to hold the regular weekly meeting, last week, of the Civil Rights Protective League at its headquarters on Dibert Ave., opposite Fulton school building. The fight is nearing an end, the league must be continued as there are many other local racial problems for it to work out, and the new spirit created by it among our people here should not be allowed to die but he IN UNION IS STRENGTH COPY FIVE CENTS Today! " School Fight Of The School Board Witnesses ted by Atty..Daniels—Supt. —The Ely-Arnett Bill— Very Bright, Indeed. fixed and solidified in a permanent organization. The brazen and highhanded "jim crow" school attempt at "official" lawlessness in an effort to rob our children of rights and privileges makes this perfectly clear to all. Then, too, there will un doubtedly be matters in connection with the present case, regardless of the outcome, that will require the attention of the league. Therefore, there will hardly be any change in the personnel of the official staff of the organization for some time to come. A better set of officers it is impossible to get and a change, at this time would be a positive misfortune. X. Y. Z. (Special to The Gazette.) SPRINGFIELD, O.—What is apparently the last scene in the fight to abolish, the "jim crow" school in this city took place in common pleas court, last Saturday, before Judge Krapp. The C. R. P. League has "fought a good fight and kept the faith," and is confidently awaiting the final judgment which is to be handed down by the court, today, Jan. 27, 23. The way Judge Summers and Atty. Geo. W. Daniels "went after" the male members of ```markdown ``` 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 will say, "Negroes are not worthy of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.'" The world respects only those who resent and resist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however long race discrimination may continue. To submit is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. ```markdown ``` the school board, Supt. McCord and the "jim crow" school-teachers ("Afros"), none of whom admitted any knowledge of an intention to make the Fulton district school "an all-Colored school." was most pleasing to our ears. The "beams were split" finally, however, when Mrs. Frye, a member of the school board, told what McCord said to the members and others at a meeting in his office relative to his intention to have a "jim crow" school on Dibert Ave. law or no law, and how he was going to "put it over." When on the witness stand and being cross-questioned his memory was very bad on these points, however. He even had no knowledge of the now notorious transfers, when Vocational Officer Dean took the stand he "let the cat out of the bag" by giving the information desired. Judge Summers' argument was a gem, especially that part of it dealing with our legal and constitutional rights as citizens of this state and the country. He was so clear and convincing: even his exorcation of Supt. McCord, all made us very happy, and doobless us in revelation to the "buckras" (whites) in the court room. Atty. Daniels, full of vim and wisdom, spoke fearlessly and truthfully, making a fitting close to our side's argument of the case. The opposing attorneys said they would submit briefs on Monday in lieu of oral arguments, and I have a sneaking suspicion that they would be brief, too.

Down in Birmingham, Ala., last week, a pretty young girl of the race and her 25-year-old lover (white), were found dead outside her home. They had been killed with an ax. We are told that this was the fifth case of the kind in that city in the last few months. O. "we are coming." When the Afro-American learns to back up his "protests" of all kinds with spirited and lasting action this race of ours is going "to get somewhere" and not until then The eternal "protesting." without the action referred to, is getting tiresome even to the thoughtful of our people. It long ago disgusted "the other fellow." U. S. Senator Frelinghuysen's resolution for the appointment of a federal lynching commission to study the subject thoroughly does not seem to create any enthusiasm among our people although its output might prove helpful. The impression prevails that the resolution, which has little chance of being adopted because the U. S. Senate's southern Democratic filibusters will opposite it too, is but a Republican "smoke-screen." The Democratic statement that Republican control of the national government works against national prosperity is completely refuted by the facts. Everybody, with "eyes to ee and ears to hear," is aware of the tremendous industrial boom that is upon us and that will increase still more with the coming of the warm months. Permanent employment at good wages is available to every man who wishes work. The Democrats have a disappointing prospect when they seek to disturb the contentment that those conditions bring. "BIRDS" AND "NUTS" Mayor Kohler has not been available to newspaper men to any considerable extent since last week Monday night's council meeting, when he kept their pencils moving busily to record the long and now famous "lecture" on the gas problem he delivered to the council members, to whom he referred as "a bunch of nuts" and a "you birds." He was reported ill the first of the week, with the "flu." The "birds" and "nuts" sat quietly, last week Monday night, and took their medicine supinely and never even offered to reply. Yes, the Eleventh Ward DO YOU KNOW WHY I ONLY HAVE TO OVERN GARMENTS TO CRAM IN HERE Councilman (?), Thos. W. Fleming, was in attendance. Arn't you proud of him? No. Well well! LODGE, HOWARD AND JOHNSON Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts says he did not promise James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., that the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill would not be abandoned on the terms of the U. S. Senate's Democratic filibusters. Johnson said he did. The latter, some weeks ago, published what he said was a letter written by Perry A. Howard to a prominent Republican of Delaware or New Jersey in which Howard is alleged to have boasted of work he against the Dyer bill. Howard says that Johnson did him a great injustice by so doing. Lodge and Howard have "put Johnson in a hole" it seems, from which we would be pleased to see him emerge "with colors flying." But will he? We are patiently waiting to see what he has to say to both Lodge and Howard. Perry is backing up his statement to Johnson with a challenge to DuBois or Johnson, or both, to debate the Dyer bill question between him and the N. A. A. C. P. secretary. How now, "Brother" Johnson? FAIR WORDS AND FOUL DEEDS. It is only a few weeks ago that President A. Lawrence Lowell of Harvard University delivered an address at Hampton in which he said that America owed it to herself to treat the Negro with absolute fairness and give him every opportunity for his fullest development. Wide publicity was given in the newspapers of our own group and in the great dailies of the land to the wise and statemanlike utterance of the President of Harvard. What a striking contrast to his plea "for the fullest opportunity of development" is his letter of last week to Roscoe Conkling Bruce, a distinguished alumnus of Harvard, who desires to have his son enter his own alma mater, stating that it is considered impracticable to admit colored students into the freshmen dormitories and refectories of the university, and that while there is no objection to such students in the dormitories of the higher classes they cannot longer be admitted into those of the freshmen. And yet, if you please, it is compulsory for Freshmen to occupy those dormitories. Note this perfect syllogism of exclusion. "All Freshmen must occupy the Freshmen dormitories at Harvard; no colored Freshmen can occupy the Freshman dormitories at Harvard; therefore, no colored Freshman can enter Harvard." If this rule be permitted to stand, it is as plain as the nose on one's face that "the fullest opportunities for the Negro" for which President Lowell so eloquently pleaded at another educational institution only a few weeks ago are to be denied him at the very university of which Mr. Lowell is the head and in distinct repudiation of the principles of that institution which has hitherto stood for fair treatment and admission of applicants of all races of the earth who could qualify for admission.—Omaha (Neb.) Monitor. Rev. John Albert Williams, editor. ROBINSON ON "THE LEAGUE OF NOTIONS." In an address delivered in Arkansas, which he recently had placed in the Congressional Record, Senator Robinson, of Arkansas, after abusing Japan and denouncing her imperialistic policies, said: "The best, indeed the only comprehensive, plan yet suggested for preserving world peace is the league of nations, in which are combined 51 powers, mutually pledged, to reshape and improve the territorial rights and political independence of one another. The United States rejected membership in this organization and allied themselves with France, England and Japan, the three nations in the league whose domestic conditions and foreign relations are mostly likely to occasion war." Of course the inconsistency of such a statement will occur to almost any reader. Had we joined the league we would have been obliged to indorse the occupation of Shantung by Japan, as Mr. Wilson had indorsed it in order to secure Japan's adherence to the league. That would have materially aided Japan in the imperialistic schemes which Senator Robinson condemns. As for the 51 powers mutually pledged, it has not THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, JAN. 27, 1923 "Chocolate Town" Packing The Globe yet been observable to the naked eye that they have been any too scrupulous in observing the pledge. If 51 nations can not eradicate hatred and mistrust and intrigue among themselves unless the United States joins the league, that can only mean, in the last analysis that the full burden of putting into effect the peace for which the league was organized shall fall on our shoulders, and that we would be torn by dissension within as well as without. And if the domestic conditions and foreign relations of France, England, and Japan are those most likely to occasion war, what good has the league done for them, and why should we join the league and subject ourselves to their control therein? Senator Robinson was quoted as saying that the league was no longer an issue in American politics. That was during the recent Congressional campaign. Has he changed his mind again on that question?

OHIO SUPREME COURT QUOTED 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 a knock-out folt, recently when Judge Frank W. Gelger of the Court of Common Pleas held the demurger 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 half hour for the judge to read. The demurger admitted the truth of the allegations petition, to the effect that the board petition, is, by transfer of pupils, seeking to be Fulton building, 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 the man as much as the legislature had, in order to have the specific statute which permitted the establishment of an exclusively school, that separate schools for colored children in Ohio may be hee. RADIUM COSTS $100.000 GRAM SUCH WEIGHT BEING ONE-TWEN- TY-EIGHTH OF AN OUNCE It Takes Twenty-five Men One Year to Produce Three Grams of the Metal. One-sixth of the world's output of radium is made within seven miles of Philadelphia in a factory at Lansdowne, which is one of six plants of its kind in the world. It has a capacity of producing three grams of radium a year. The process by which the metal is made was discovered by Dr. D. H. Kabakjian, assistant professor of physics in the University of Pennsylvania and a resident of Lansdowne. Some idea of the delicacy of the secret chemical processes which the carnotite ore undergoes can be gleaned from the output of the factory. Hundreds of tons of carnotite are used during the course of a year. twenty-five men working nine hours a day for a year will produce three grams of pure radium salt. The market price of pure radium is $100,000 a gram at this time, and the Landsdowne factory's yearly output is worth $300,000. A gram is one twenty-eighth of an ounce. Radium is sent to all parts of the world from the factory in Landsdowne. "We have to be mighty careful how we ship this material," said Dr. Kabakjian. "The radium salt is placed in a sealed glass tube like this one," and he rolled between his fingers a little glass tube not much larger than a 5-penny nail. How the Heather Got Its Blossoms. In her "Book of Nature Myths," Florence Holbrook tells the story of how the heather got its blossoms. She writes: "The trees and plants were happy and contented. The lily was glad because her flowers were white. The rose was glad because her flowers were red. The violet was happy because, however shyly she might hide herself away, some one would come to look for her and praise her fragrance. The daisy was happiest of all because every child in the world loved her. "The trees and plants chose homes for themselves. The oak said, 'I will live in the broad fields and by the roads, and travelers may sit in my shadow.' I shall be contented on the waters of the pond,' said the water lily. 'And I am contented in the sunny fields,' said the daisy. 'My fragrance shall rise from beside some mossy stone,' said the violet. Each plant chose its home where it would be most happy and contented. "There was one little plant, however, that had not said a word and had not chosen a home. This plant was the heather. She had not the sweet fragrance of the violet, and the children did not love her as they did the daisy. The reason was that no blossoms had been given her, and she was too shy to ask for any. "I wish there was some one who would be glad to see me,' she said; but she was a brave little plant, and abolished, 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 Fulton school district there are about three hundred colored and two hundred white pupils who were enrolled in said school in 1920-21 and that the enrollment for the present school year would be about the same, but for the fact that the board of education is attempting, unrestricted, to establish and maintain said school and to ensure that for colored children; that it has not declared to do so indirectly and that it has transferred all white children to other districts from in Fulton school district, refusing then admittance in their own district." But such acts have been done solely because of race or color of sal, colored children; and that they are unlawful and an abuse of the corporate powers of defendant, and a waster of money of the taxpayers, and an irreparable injury to plaintiffs." she did her best to be contented and to look bright and green. "One day she heard the mountain say, 'Dear plants, will you not come to my rocks and cover them with your brightness and beauty?' Will you not come and cover them? "I cannot leave the pond," cried the water lily. "I cannot leave the moss," said the violet. "I cannot leave the green fields," said the daisy. "The little heather was trembling with eagerness. 'If the great, beautiful mountain would only let me come,' she thought, and at last she whispered very softly and shyly, 'Please, dear mountain, will you let me come? I have not any blossoms like the others, but I will try to keep the wind and the sun away from you.' "Let you?" cried the mountain. "I shall be contented and happy if a dear little plant like you will only come to me." "The heather soon covered the rocky mountainside with her bright green, and the mountain called proudly to the other plants. 'See how beautiful my little heather is.' The others replied, 'Yes, she is bright and green, but she has no blossoms.' "Then a sweet voice was heart saying, 'Blossoms you shall have, lit the heather. You shall have many and many a flower, because you have loved the lonely mountain, and have done all that you could to please and make him happy.' Even before the gentle voice was still, the little heather was bright with many blossoms, and blossoms she has had from that day to this." Simpler Process "No doubt you enjoy having your son at home during his vacation." "Oh, yes," replied Dr. Grabbolin. "And he's less trouble to me while at home." "How is that?" "When he's at college he's always telegraphing me for money. Now I can save time and telegraph tolls by handing it to him each morning at the breakfast table." Mr. Pester—You're 12 pounds under weight. Why did you buy that book on "How to Reduce?" His Wife—Well, I might get fat and then it would come in handy and then I might build up by doing just the opposite from what the book says. Besides it was marked down to half price. And—Oh, you mind your own business. Free-and-Easy Railroading. "How far are we from Juniper Junction, conductor?" "And when are we due to get there?" "Oh, in about two hours, ma'am, if the engine holds out. But even if we don't get there in three hours, Juniper Junction is the kind of town that is willing to wait." Not Foolish. Meredith—I think Brown was foolish in spending all that money on a wireless outfit just because his wife wanted to listen to the free air concerts. Webster—Foolish, indeed! He says the extra hours of quiet he gets every evening now are worth ten times the price he paid. Then It Happened. A stanger dared to referee A prairie football game.

Lays Him Out on the Floor. This is a story about a dog. The dog, is called John, and is owned by Federal Judge Landis of Chicago. It all began when Judge Landis gave John an old golf ball to play with. John, who is a big, white bull terrier, cavorted about the Judge's reading room at home and had a great time with the ball. The next day when the judge came down to court John, of course, came with him, but he appeared unusually quiet. That night after the judge had returned home and had settled him self down to read John came in and laid down beside his chair.

"Pop!" went something all of a sudden. Startled, the judge looked around. He was just in time to see John sprout about two feet in the air. Before he could conceive a thought on such a phenomenon there was another, "pop," and an air in John jumped into the air. It required just two seconds time for the judge to reach the next room, but in that time he came to the realization that something extraordinary was happening within the vital parts of his dog John. The next minute something began to happen in the living room that would have made a cyclone resemble a South Sea zophyr. John looped the loop seven times, sprang liam-like from the mantel peace to the piano and back again nine times, pulled out several medical books from the library, turned over an expensive vas., and bit his initials in an oil painting; all in the space of a few seconds. Then suddenly there was another pop," and when the judge ventured to peep into the room John was stretched out in the center of the floor. "That darn dog, I said to myself, has gone and swallowed that old golf ball I gave him the other day and it has busted inside of him," the judge explained in his humorous way. "Of course, the ball was full of some kind of acid, and when it got to work on his stomach it must have set him on fire. "And don't you ever think that the poor little lunatic is over his trouble yet, either. Why, those golf balls have got 472,000,000 ruther bands inside of them, and just wait till they begin to burst loose." VISITORS 'HIT' BROADWAY But Native New Yorkers Prefer Side Streets. It has often been remarked by visitors from Denver and other scientific investigators that New York's Broadway is apparently patronized by people from all over the world except the native resident of New York. And it is probably true that Seattle knows its way about the Rialto at least as well as does E. 72d street, and the cabarets along the great white way see more money from Des Moines than from Amsterdam avenue. The fact of the matter is that the out-of-town visitor, descending upon the metropolis trained to the minute, with the express intention and determination of taking in Broadway, succeeds largely in crowding the native off the walk. Hence it has come about that other New York streets, which never attain more than a local fame, have become pleasure grounds for the real New Yorker, who leaves the streets and the restaurants of world reputation to the hordes of the invader. Such a street, for instance is 125th street, often called by its frequenters the "uptown Broadway." One hundred and twenty-fifth street lies in the apartment house, section, about in the middle of the long narrow city that is modern New York. From here to the battery is a long ride on the express trains, and from here to the limits, of New York, up beyond the Bronx, is a longer ride by local. The dweller in this section rarely takes either of these rides. He goes down to the office in the morning and in the evening returns to his own little side street. If he craves amusement, he strolls down 125th street. IMPROVES SHOW WINDOW Firm Makes Contents of Case More Visible. A novel show window which has the advantage of being devoid of glass reflections, thereby making its contents more readily visible, has lately been added to a Chicago shop. The window curves inward nearly three feet from a height of eight feet above the floor. A shadow box painted a dark color extends around the bottom to a height of nearly three feet, the outer wall being in line with the widest part of the window. The improved display, especially for women's garments, is said to justify the extra expense of the curved glass. World's Crookedest Railroad Up California's Mount Tamalpals runs the crookedest railroad in the world. Of the eight miles of track the longest tangent is only 413 feet. In one instance the road makes five complete loop, and ties two complete bow knots to attain an elevation of ninety feet. A witness in the supreme court at Bangor, Me., was asked by a lawyer what he had at a certain time on his farm in the way of personal property. "Well, I had a cow, a calf and my wife," was the unexpected reply.

Misled by the foolishly manufactured outcry 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: 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 the Court of Appellation, the opinion of the Court of Appellation in the Lunch Co. vs. Leoonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed.
