COMING! COMING! On March 26, the "Follow Me" Company, fifty people, headed by Jerry Mills and Clifford Ross, will be the attraction at The Globe Theater. Manager Bob Davis, who as a "picker and securer" of the very best shows on the road for his patrons and seems to top the list of managers of our theaters, the country over, assures us it is our best musical comedy to appear in Cleveland to that date, and there certainly have been some mighty good ones on to date as all know. Watch "the Old Rellable" for further announcements relative to the "Follow Me" Co. IN UNION IS STRONG A. B. Springfield, O.—Above is an excellent portrait of Atty. Sully Jaymes, one of counsel in the case of Chas. Johnson et al., vs. the local board of education. Senator Pomerene said of him, several years ago: "This man Jaymes is one of the most capable lawyers now practicing in Ohio, white or black." Mr. Jaymes is a native of Virginia. At an early age his parents moved to Everett, Mass. He was educated in the schools of Boston, completing courses at Boston Latin School, the College of Liberal Arts and Boston University. In 1900, he came west and completed his legal education at the University of Michigan, graduating from that institution with the degree of LL.B. in the class of 1901. In 1904, he took up the practice of law in this city and for the past 18 years has engaged in general practice throughout this section. Atty. Jaymes has held the following honorary positions since his residence in Ohio: Grand attorney of the Elks; four years as grand attorney for the Ohio K. of P.; president of the Great Lakes Conference, N. A. A. C. P.; president of its local branch and director of many business enterprises in this city. Two years ago, he was appointed by the Governor a trustee of the combined N. & J. (State) department of Wilberforce University, and is now president of its board of trustees. He has been very successful here, especially in criminal cases. He was in the case of Williams vs. The Chakeres Amusement Co. one of the first cases tried here, testing the Smith Ohio Civil Rights law and won it. He has the distinction of being counsel in the only case tried in this state where that infamous play, "The Birth of a Nation," was enjoined from showing here on Sundays. Some years ago when Ralph W. Tyler of Columbus was refused service at the Union News restaurant here, he was retained and succeeded in getting a judgment for $110 and costs, the Union News Co. serving all persons with equal accommodation thereafter Attorney Jaymes' best work was probably done in the recent "jim-crow" school fight cases, which were tried and won in the local court, testing the right of school hoards in this state to segregate children on account of race and color. He was associated with Atty. Geo. Daniels and Judge A. N. Summers, but acted as leading counsel in the cases (34) which were tried in the police court; when the pickets were arrested as rioters and when more than a dozen were arrested for failing to send their children to school. He obtained verdicts of acquittal in all of them. In politics Mr. Jaymes has always been an independent, advocating that our people should not ally themselves too closely with any one party, but should vote for men and measure rather than for politicians and parties. ON TO THE GLOBE: The Martin & Walker show, which is playing, this week at the Globe finishing Sunday night, has come up to all advance information. It is without a doubt, one of the best and fastest tab shows on our circuit. The company consists of 18 people and it is the first time that so large a company as this has been gathered together for a tab show which plays at popular prices: Balcony 25, orchestra 30, box-seats 40 cents. For the coming week, Manager Bob Davis has gathered another exceptionally strong bill having Johnnie Lee Long's "Shu Shi Shu" together with "Gang" Jines, one of the best monologists on our circuit. Also Smith & Graham in the "Southern Jazzers." In addition to the above, there will be a feature photoplay given each night at regular admission prices. There will be two shows each evening, commencing at 6:45 and 9:00. This Saturday, March 10th, the "Martin & Walker" Co. will glye a Midnight Ramble, at which time they promise to have the entire show changed from what they have been giving us all week. This company is able to do this, because of the fact that they have played every town two consecutive weeks. Since it is the policy of The Globe to run a show only one week, and none the second week, regardless of how good the show may be, in order to give its patrons the Martin & Walker second show, this Midnight Ramble has been arranged for.

SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 1923 Rev, Chas. S. Morris of Virginia says the "race question" is the "acid test of Christianity." Agreed! Noble Sissle. a Cleveland boy, is one of the "leads" in the "Shuffle Along" Co. --- A contemporary, the Detroit "Voice," refers to the K. K. K. as "a reptilian order." Jim Jeffries is "broke." Jack Johnson isn't. This is anything but good news to the sport writers of the daily papers of the country. The first martyr to the cause of American independence was our Crispus Attucks. Our people everywhere should honor the date of his untimely death—March 5. --- Do all you can financially for and then interest your friends of all races in "The Playhouse" drive now on for a suitable building, properly equipped. It will be for all without reference to class (race) or color. Everyone can help some if they will. Editor BenJ. J. Davis' eighteen-page, splendidly illustrated twentieth anniversary (March 1, '23) edition of his Atlanta (Ga.) Independent was certainly a "hummer." The Independent is one of our two or three best papers published in the South. Judge Virgil Terrell, in a report of an inspection tour, last week, said Cleveland's "hell hole," as he described the district which includes sections of Woodland, Scovill and Central Avenue, S.E. will continue to be that as long as the district is not properly policed. "More truth than poetry," too. The story sent out from Mexico City, Mex., early last month, by "anti-Negro" American propagandists in that city, to the effect that our people were not wanted as colonists in Mexico, has been proven to be simply another "lie cut out of whole cloth." --- City Welfare Director Raiph Perkins says: "We are unable to get sufficient student nurses. Our present budget calls for 125 graduate nurses and 120 student nurses. Our report shows we have 116 graduate nurses and 49 students for 627 patients." Here is a golden opportunity for those of our girls who are looking for such a chance. On March 11 and 12 in the principal institutions of learning and in many cities throughout the country, local chapters of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity and Veteran and other organizations will hold memorial services in honor of the late Col. Charles Young, U. S. A., who died at Lagos, Nigeria, Africa, Jan. 8, 1922. Ohio should lead in this for obvious reasons. The Colonel's home was at Wilberforce. We are a little anxious to learn just how many of our young men of the South will take advantage of the "separate" training camps Secretary of War Weeks intends to establish in that section of the country at the request of Dr. R. R. Moton of Tuskegee, Ala. We have an idea that not many of them will "fall over themselves" seeking the "thirty days" intensive military training" thus provided. --- When Cornellus Barnes, 3411 Scovill Ave., picked the pockets of Jas. E. Glanque, 3179 W. 92nd St., a few weeks ago, he picked himself a two to five years' residence in the penitentiary at Columbus. Common Pleas Judge. Phillips sentenced him, Tuesday, following his conviction by a jury. Wm. Jackson, 2636 Scovill Ave., received one to five years for housebreaking. He pleaded guilty. These Negroes lived in the Central-Scovill-Woodland district. A company is now publishing our long-time contemporary. The Indianapolis (Ind.) Freeman. We certainly dislike seeing its veteran and venerable publisher, Geo. L. Knox's name taken from the paper. Another martyr to the cause of race journalism. But a very few of us "old timers" remain, it seems. Fortune and Clifford gone, Murphy dead, Knox gone. We are getting lonesome, aren't we, Editors Mitchell and Steward? --- In a number of places in Georgia and other southern states, the "crackers" were driving our people out, last week and the week previous. At the same time in many parts of the South the daily papers were and are still publishing not about the mistreatment of "Negroes" in the North, trying to frighten them into remaining. Nevertheless, and very naturally, too, under the circumstances, they are coming north by the hundreds, every week. This will eventually prove one of the most important elements in the solution of that "southern (not Negro) question" or "problem." Some one ought to tell Rev. John Haynes Holmes of New York City, who preached so eloquently, recently, against mob violence and lynching, that it is harmful to let the impression prevail, after reading his sermon, that lynching is anywhere near as rampant in the North as in the South. Always make this fact perfectly clear, Dr. Holmes. If you fail to do so it seems that your are in a small way pandering to the South. Of course, we do not think you were or are doing this, but many others will. MAYOR KOHLER AND THE K. K. K. For nearly two weeks we have watched the editorial columns of the local daily press in vain for some expression of opinion on Mayor Fred Kohler's comparison of the notorious Ku Klux Klan with the Knights of Pythias, the Knights of Columbus, the Hebrew Association and like organizations, and cannot for the life of us understand the local daily newspapers' failure to make clear to the mayor and the community that there can be no such comparison. Why? Because the very foundation of the Ku Klux Klan is lawlessness. This much has been made perfectly clear in recent years in hundreds of different cases in which the miserable organization "took the law in its own hands," in defiance of the courts and regularly constituted officials, and performed acts that clearly place it "without the law," and make it the lawless organization. It is generally regarded as being by all right-thinking, intelligent persons. That is why, throut the country, even in the South where it was born, it is slowly but surely being driven to its death. The Knights of Columbus, Knights of Pythias, the Hebrew Association and like secret organizations, nowhere in this country have established a record for lawlessness. And in the face of this, Cleveland's mayor made the comparison at a meeting of Cleveland's City Council, last week Monday evening, and said he had no more right to disturb a meeting of the Klan than he had to do the same thing in the case of any of the other organizations named. Very poor reasoning indeed. Mr. Mayor, and the intelligence of this great city, which will not soon forget it, was not one minute in noting the fact even the daily papers of the city failed utterly to do their clear duty in the matter by exposing the fallacy of your very weak reasoning. With so many states, cities and towns taking official action against the notorious Klan, it does seem to us, Mayor Kohler, that you should have known better and taken an advanced stand, out in the open, against the lawless Ku Klux Klan. Court Upheld Right to Raid Ku Klux Klan Springfield, O.—The validity of the police warrant to raid the klan headquarters was upheld by Judge G: C. Davis in the hearing of W. M. Cortner, grand kleagle of the K. K. K. of Springfield, charged with riotous conspiracy. Feeling is running high against the K. K. K. in this section and considerable interest was shown in the case. *************************************************************** "White Man." " 'White' when applied to a man does not refer in the slightest degree to his complexion or the color of his hair. One may be as black as the ace of spades and yet be a 'white' man. The real attributes are few but essential—a pure mind, a gentle disposition, a sweet nature, a glorious courage beyond measure and a heart of gold. That is our definition of 'a white man,' whether he be a prince or a pauper."—American Ambassador Harvey in a speech at the "Pilgrim" dinner in London, Eng. March 1, 1922. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, Q SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 1923 PRIME SPORT NEWS Color-Line Wiped Out! New York City — The color line established by the New York Boxing Commission to prevent Harry Wills meeting Jack Dempsey has been erased. George Godfrey, who outgrew his job of sparring partner for Jacques Laffont in a show troupe, has been given a match at platoerne Athletic club with Jack Renault (white), former sparring partner of Dempsey. They are to meet in a 12-rounder, this Friday night, which will be the first mixed bout between heavyweights since the fight business was revived here three years ago. "Big Chief" Muldoon is "losing out." Godfrey is a good hitter and far more clever than Luis Angelo Firpo, the South American. PRIME SPORT NEWS "Carp" Formally Challenges Sikh Paris, France — The French Boxing Federation, says L'Auto, has received Georges Carpentier's challenge to win the world boxing battle for the light heavyweight championship of Europe and the "THE PLAYHOUSE" DRIVE Bound to Be a Success—Wonderful Progress Being Made—Some of the Contributors to Date. The response of groups, clubs, lodges and individuals to the campaign appeal of The Playhouse for funds for its new building has to date, far exceeded the hopes of the committee in charge. Men and women, prominent in social and civic affairs, have enthusiastically answered the call and are working on the mination of the driver. This eager response is due in large measure to the position taken and held by The Playhouse from its beginning, of being a truly democratic community house. All people of the community have equal access to its various facilities. The new building will afford still greater opportunities for extending the democratic process in the community and lodge rooms for adults who, at the present time, are unable to be accommodated because of inadequate facilities. Plans for the new building provide for a large, well-equipped gymnasium for large athletic events, a modern swimming pool, with adjoining showers and lockers, club and game rooms for boys and girls, and rooms will be taught handicrafts, printing, household arts, etc. An auditorium will be available for amateur dramatics. Men's and women's groups will be provided with club rooms and rooms for parties and entertainments. So complete are the plans that all age groups from the children of five and six years to the adults will be cared for. Conductors to the fund have given $50.00 or more. Dr. E. A. Bailey $500 Nat'l.

"I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than race prejudice; none at all! "I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world." —H. G. Wells. IS IT OF ANY USE TO CON- TEND FOR EIGHTS? 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 even rights; they are by nature without self-respect and have no 'guts.' The world respects only those who resent and resist proscription for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal liberty, and forever resist denial of rights in our native land, however race discrimination may continue. The mission is to deserve contempt. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. world. The challenge, the newspaper adds, has been transmitted to the International Boxing Union. Siki Lands in England.

Champion Ski left here, Sunday, on board the American steamer, President Adams, for Queenstown. Sikh Welcome in Ireland. Dublin. Ireland—Many boxing enthusiasts are in Dublin awaiting the Ski-McMackay meet in Queensland, ahead the American Inner, President Adams, from Chambourg, France. He and his party got a very cordial reception and said he was glad of the opportunity to show people that he deserved the verdict over Carpentier. His manager says Ski will fight Carpentier again, probably in May. PROTEST AGAINST WRONG To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would seave the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes.

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." MILLIONS IN BOTTLE CAP Jewish Peddler Staked Savings on Baltimore Man's Invention. How many persons, householders or others, who have had occasion to remove the little tin caps from catus or other bottles, ever give a thought to the little wrinkled edge that keeps the contents from the air and holds it in its original form? It's a good guess that not one in a thousand. It's an unimpressing little affair, but it has a most interesting history. It was upward of a quarter of a century ago that a man named Talantor of Baltimore, Md., bethought himself of the cap and succeeded in bringing it to a successful demonstration. He was a poor man, and it was uphill work trying to interest moneyed men in his invention. A traveling Jew peddler of jewelry and "knicknacks" by the name of Friedenwald, became interested, took his years of savings, amounting to some $5,000, from the bank and invested in the invention. Years went by and the peddler lived to see factories all over the world resulting from his investment. Good judges assert that more than $50,000. $00 was divided among those interested in the simple little device."

"I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone, the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may conceive 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 countenance of relatives of friends." Charles Summer. OUR LESSON We must learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement. If we do not learn to govern ourselves and work together for our own advancement, we may be very unhappy that we will be governed by others in their own interest as well as worked by others for their own advancement and not ours—George W. Blount. CHARACTER Character, like a fine old tree, matures slowly and is a riper growth than success that is forced as hothouse products are forced. Character in a newspaper develops through years of service to the people. For forty years The Gazette has been serving our people of this country. It has gathered a reader clientele whose tastes it reflects, and whose power and responsiveness to buy are direct measures of its present importance to every advertiser. ERROR "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My ear is pained My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which the earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's ob- duate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To obfuscate the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. * * * * * * * * * Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. —Cowper.

Mr. Male has rented his 200 acre Meadow Brook farm which for some years he has operated so very successfully—until the recent death of his splendid helpmate and wife who died several weeks ago. Miss Male is a graduate of Wesleyan College, Delaware, O., and a talented young lady. It is now perfectly clear that the Ku Klux of Springfield, Ohio, were the "backbone" of the recent vain effort to establish separate ("jim-crow") schools in that city. Also in their efforts in several other cities in the North are one of many baneful activities of that lawless organization. Our people everywhere must be watchful and well organized so as to be able to act promptly and progressively wherever the miserable "snake" shows its "head." Jewish and German people especially, particularly their women, are WISE when it comes to making purchases of all kinds. They hunt bargains and know them when they see them. Some of our women are the same way but entirely too many are not. Do not go "down town" and pay a big price for anything you can get at Max Lustberg's, 2734 Central Ave., for one half and less than you will pay for it "down town."

Moore of Pittsburg, director of our Baptist work in the North, preached the sermon, Sunday morning, for the twentieth anniversary of Rev. H. C. Bailey's pastorate of Antioch church. In the afternoon, Rev. A. McDonald, ex. sec. of the local Baptist association, preached and St. John's Choir, thirty voices, furnished excellent music. In the evening, Rev. Moore spoke again, leaving the city, Monday morning. During the day, $1,000 was raised to be applied to remodeling the church. The celebration in Rev. Bailey's long and very successful pastorate Antioch was closed with a meeting on Monday evening which was addressed by him and the editor of The Gazette, Mrs. Harriet G. Anderson, of the Community Center, Scovill Ave. and E. 28th St., read a fine paper which is to be heard again at an early date. A mattress proved a poor hiding place for I$4,400, the life savings of Mrs. Kibby McLeod. She told police that when she went to the mattress, early Saturday, Feb. 24, 23, to get some money to pay a bill all her accumulations had been stolen. She had maintained a heardressing establishment at 3866 Central Ave., with living-rooms in the rear, and believes that someone took the money while she was dressing a customer's hair. "The Lord works in a mysterious way," oft-times. Mrs. McLeod was one of the most active workers in the Starlight-Fleming "organization" of political workers in the fall of 1921. You will remember that women in that aggregation were loud in their statement, that the editor of The Gazette was "painting the ward I11 picture" (of the bad conditions existing there) blacker than it really was. Since, so very much has happened to verify ALL AND MORE than we said anent the matter that many people have quite forgotten the fact we make plain for the 'stealth time in this leader', Strange, but have you noticed how many of the women associates in that campaign of Mrs. McLeod have suffered in one way or another as a result of these conditions which still exist in that ward in an entirely too great a degree? We are not rejoicing over the misfortune of any one but simply calling attention to a fact. He Says Our Good People of Springfield, Ohio, Have Helped The Entire Race. Jersey City, N. J.—Our sincere congratulations to the people of Springfield, Ohio! Their fight has helped the entire race. The hand of women (and men) that fought for liberty and fair play deserve every compliment that can be bestowed upon them. The Gazette with its intrepid fighter, Editor Harry C. Smith was the power behind these people and the victory gives glory to all. The Gazette is always on the right side of race battles. We regret that "jim-crow" Negroes are the worst foes the race must fight. "Jim-crowism" must not only go out of Ohio, but out of this nation. It may not go in our day, but we shall fight it with might and main and our children and their children will see it fade away from America. We approve of old age and prepares themselves, teaching in the public schools of all states. They should be appointed by every board of fairness. These competent teachers should teach all American children that go to public schools. A competent Negro teacher is just as fit to teach a white child as a competent white teacher is to teach a Negro child. Fitness should be the only criterion and when just school boards follow this policy the people will soon adjust themselves to it. Let the world know that we acknowledge no superiority. That person is superior to use who is better in the manifestations of virtues than we are. A Chinamen, Japanese, Indian or white man who is more humane, intelligent or just than I am is superior to me, but he is a fool that thinks his skin makes him superior. All praise to the fair-minded Judges of Ohio who know the law and have the backbone to administer it without fear or favor. Washington, D. C., March 1. — The nomination of Hon. Walter H.

SUMMERS Springfield, O.—The above is an excellent portrait of Judge Augustus N. Summers, former Justice of the Supreme Court of Ohio, who as chief counsel directed the legal proceedings which resulted in such a signal victory for our people of this city in their recent fight to prevent the introduction of a "jim-crow" school. It was the large experience in and profound knowledge of the law possessed by Judge Summers that enabled him to penetrate and expose the ingenious schemes by which Supt. Geo. McCord and the male members of the local school board hoped to deceive the public and evade the law. McCord and two members of the board, Copenhaven and Hutchings, are members of the local Ku Klux Klan. As the Judge's expression of devotion to the cause of right and justice and the maintenance of the supremacy of the law in Ohio our people of the entire state are under lasting obligations to him. Particularly so when it is known that Judge Summer's services were solicited after several other prominent white attorneys had refused the case. He is the son of a Lutheran minister and was born in Shelby, Ohio, where he received his early education, later attending Wittenburg College from which he was graduated in the class of 1879. He was admitted to the bar in 1881. Shortly after this, he began what has been a long and honorable service as a public servant, serving as city solicitor of Springfield for three terms. In recalling his services as city solicitor, Judge Summers relates the incident in which he befended the board in Washington in 1886 in a case in which some of our citizens of that time had sued to enjoin the board from building any new office for our children. The board lost the case, in the court of common pleas, whereupon they appealed to the court of appeals where it was pending when the Ely-Arnett bill, repealing the remnants of "The Black Laws of Ohio," was passed in February, 1887. His services as a jurist includes ten years as judge of the second circuit court, from whence he was elected in 1900 a Justice of the State Supreme Court, serving until Jan. 1, 1910, having been defeated for re-election in the Democratic landslide of 1908 in which President Taft of the 1900s re-elected for re-election. Even then he is credited with having run 10,000 votes ahead of the ticket. The picture from which our cutt is shown from Summers in the robe Justice. After his retirement from the supreme bench, he returned to the practice of law in his home town, organizing the law firm of Summers & Beard. His residence is on E. High St., which still continues to be the habitat of the first families of Springfield, where he resides with his wife, two sons and a daughter. The entry of a perpetual injunction was made, Feb. 9, 1923, and the board of education enjoined from opening the Fulton ("jim-crow") school during the remainder of this school year. Thereafter, it may be opened and maintained as a non-segregated school or a school for children of school-age residing in the Fulton school district without an distinction of race (or color) and the defendant (school board)) is permanent in enjoining any children residing in the Fulton district to any other district on the basis of race or color (or permitting the same to be done by any of its agents or employees) in any grade that is maintained in the Fulton School district; and from permitting any such child or children, on that basis, to attend a school operating under the local public school system in any other district. Provision is made for opening the Fulton school for the next school year if all children in the district will not regard to race it is further provided that to that school.

This decision is also invaluable as a legal precedent. Portraits and brief sketches of Attys, Jaymes and Daniels, who were the new famous school case, will appear in early issues of The Gazette. MADRAS CLINGS TO WAYS OF EAST INDIA PROVINCE, THOUGH CIVI LIZED, HOLDS TO HINDU WAYS AND CUSTOMS Training of West is Powerless to Eradicate Beliefs. Madras is the heart of the real India. There is a tendency on the part of travelers and writers to overlook the presidency, because it has few of the more striking and romantic features that are found in the north—the dangers of the frontier, the intrigue of the native Rajput princess,'the continually bubbling caddon of strife between Hindu and Mohammedan. Madras is pure Hindu, which is to say pure Indian of the oldest times. It is a tradition in India to treat the Madras province as something of a joke. Civil and military officials in the north wrestling with iterter problems of intrigue and revolt, are inclined to look down on them. It is an insult to tell a Sikh trooper that he drills like a Madrassi. All this, however, is simply the result of the settled prosperity of Madras. Things there are past the experimental stage. Agriculture, administration, education, transportation, have all been worked out to a fine point, leaving the officers and the progressive classes of natives to spend their time working out advance ideas and systems at which the rest of India laughs. Yet Madras is too rich and powerful in an economic way to be laughed at much. Here you touch the old Hindu east. Side by side with the grafted culture of Europe that the native picks up with a superficial facility, and side by side with his own thousands-of-years-old oriental civilization, still flourish a hundred old superstitions and customs that the west cannot but regard as barbarous. They are a part of the east, and the English are powerless before the passive resistance that the native opposes to any attempt to change them. There are tales of human sacrifice still carried out secretly in remote mountain districts; it is known to a certainty that the superstitious practice of swinging a man by hooks from a tree to insure a good harvest is still carried out. Women still kill themselves on the death of their husbands, t.e lines of caste are drawn as hard and fast as they were five centuries ago; a Brahmin is still defiled if the shadow of an outcast passes over him. Madras is not disorderly, but it is stubborn in these matters with an oriental stubbornness. And the disconcerting part of it all is the fact that these revolting practices are not the customs of barbarians, but of a highly civilized people who have gone as far on their own road as Europe has gone on hers. JERSEY WINTER 'FARMS' ENTIRELY UNDER GLASS In Great Greenhouses Three or Four Vegetable Crops Are Raised in Single Season. Winter farming under glass is becoming a thriving industry in New Jersey. It bids fair to be further stimulated by soaring prices and the general scarcity of fresh farm products such as can be successfully stored and held over after the regular season. There are a number of these "winter farms" in various parts of the State, but few of them have made greater growth or have so large an output as one operated in Deerfield township, Cumberland County, which has gained fame in recent years by reason of its extensive irrigation system, covering several hundred acres. There are six greenhouses. They are built of steel and glass and each is 300 feet long by 60 feet wide. Care has been taken in laying out this "winter farm" to take advantage of the sunshine. With the frigid winter world shut outside by the expansive glass roof, this snug "farm" has a succession of June days right in the midst of the bleak months of December, January and February. The "farming" under glass is done on a very extensive scale. Three or four crops of such vegetables as radishes can be raised during a single season and no space is permitted to go to waste. Cucumbers have special wire trellises to climb over, and unlike those in the ordinary garden, the vines are not permitted to ramble about at will. It is the greenhouse-grown tomatoes that require the most attention. After the tomato plants are set in the ground each one is carefully staked. Lateral branches are carefully pruned off and the vine or plant is trained into an upright, single stalk. As the flowers develop they are pollinized carefully by a gentle shaking process. The leaves are cut away in around the clusters of fruit as they develop. As this process proceeds the green and ripening tomato hang in bunches along this single upright stalk. A Health Crank.

FINDS WAY TO SAVE MEN FROM U-BOATS Sailors Equipped With Oxygen Apparatus Can Leave Divers at Great Depth. A method of saving lives from wrecked submarinea has been invented by a German engineer named Drager. It is in use not only in the German, but in other navies. The method is described as follows: The damage to the U-Boat will not always be so extensive that the midships cannot give refuge to the crew. In this case there need be no despair of rescue, even if great depth of water makes the work last several days, or if the lifting of the wreck is impossible. The screw is protected against death thru suffocation for several days by an air purifier, which is always in operation when the craft is under the water. The Draeger disinfector separates automatically the air which has been breathed from the injurious carbonic acid and other foul gasses and freshens it again with the new oxygen for rebreathing. If a submarine is unable to come to the surface by its own power it sends a buoy up on a cable. The glaring red buoy indicates to searching rescue ships the exact position of the suken U-boat. Furthermore, a phone from the submarine is connected with the buoy. If, after a few days, the regularly repeated air examinations show that the purifying apparatus is not going to hold out, the crew must leave the boat to escape suffocation. Rescue from a great depth is made possible by means of a lifting and respiration apparatus. The device not only makes it possible for the wearer to breathe under water for at least an hour, but it also carries him up to the surface from a depth as great as 180 feet and helps him to swim on the surface for hours. The most important part of the apparatus is an oxygen respiration device with automatic disinfector. Then there are the respiration sack carried on the back like a knapsack, and the mouthpiece with nose clasp for closing the nostrils and the necessary connecting hoses. The air which has been breathed passes thru the hose into a so-called potassium case, where it comes in contact with grains of potassium hydrate and sodium hydrate, which absorb the poisonous carbonic acid and eventually are converted into potash. The purified air then mixes with oxygen from the oxygen tank, flows to the respiration sack and is ready to be breathed afresh. When the moment comes to leave the boat the bottom valve of the submarine is opened, so that the Boat entirely fills with water, for only then can the windows be opened. The windows are opened and the first man grips the boy cable and is carried upward by the driving power of his tightly filled respiration sack and his swimming vest. HE'S PRACTICAL JOKER Obliging Mechanic Always Happened to Be On Hand. Quite recently patrons of a well-known New York restaurant, who were in the habit of leaving their cars unattended outside, uncovered the methods of a new kind of practice, joker-new because he was practical. It appears that almost every day someone would have trouble in getting his car started. After he had tinkered for a few minutes an obliquing mechanic would stroll up, proffer his aid and have the engine running in no time. Two actors happened to compare notes one day and found that this incident had occurred to both of them. They immediately became suspicious and on leaving the restaurant saw the man working at a car a short distance down the street. By quick action one of them pounced on him and caught him. He was the obliging mechanic, and after his arrest it developed that he had deliberately disconnected portions of the cars' electrical systems, and then had collected substantial rewards from pauped owners for services rendered in starting the machines. - Motor Life.

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 privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days or both. See 1204. Where 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 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 the Court's approval. 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. My Dear Sir: Observing your letter in the Beacon-Journal, of this city, I venture to send you, under a separate cover, the Ohio Law Reporter of Feb. 3, last, containing the opinion of the Court of Appeals in the Puritan Lunch Co. vs. Leonard H. Forman, decided in Akron, last fall, in which a judgment for ($500) five hundred dollars was sustained. If the Beacon-Journal had known what was going on in its own town, there would have been no occasion for criticism, editorially. THE LAW OF OHIO IS UNDER NO REPROACH, nor our courts and juries, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed.
