Cambridge, Mass.—The history of the ancient Kingdom of Ethiopia through the long span of 1,100 years, from 750 B. C. to 360 A. D., has been completed in principal outline by excavations in tombs and pyramids in the Anglo-Egyptian Soudan by the Harvard-Boston expedition, headed by Prof. George A. Reisner. The most recent researches of the expedition in the pyramids at Meroe have established that the culture of the Ethiopians stood as an outpost of Egyptian civilization in middle Africa, Dr. Reisner said in the report which he has just made; that in the art of the Ethiopians, a Greek influence obtained and that the invention of a script of their own was evidence that the Ethiopians were people of genius. The Ethiopians, Dr. Reisner said, are not and were not African Negroes. He described them as dark colored races, in which brown prevails, adding, however, that many individuals show a mixture of black blood. The impression that Ethiopia was governed by a long line of queens named Candace, held in the New Testament and by Pliny and Strabo, already weakened by the discovery that the name was only a title meaning queen, was further dispelled by the excavations. It appeared that from 750 B. C., every ruler of Ethiopia was a male. Dr. Reisner said. STUDENT MUSICIANS MAKE GOOD In Several Concerts—Clarence Cameron White, Composer-Violinist, Delights Audience as Usual. Hampton, Va.—A large, representative, and enthusiastic audience of citizens of both races attended the Hampton Institute Glee Club concert, which was recently given in the Academy of Music at Newport, News, Va., under the direction of R.

Wilson of Salem, Va. pianist. The thirty members of the glee club and the assisting participant did yeoman missionary service in making all realize the fact that our people can master the intricacies of difficult musical compositions and can present a wide range program with splendid finish and proper self-control. This was the fifth big concert which the club has given, this season. The others were in the Richmond city auditorium, at the university of Richmond, at the Virginia Medical college, and in Ogden Hall, here, where the assisting artist was Clarence Cameron White of Boston, well-known composer-violinist, who made a direct and winning appeal to a large audience with whom he early established cordial relations on account of the beauty of his tone.

You will recall that I sent you a copy of this bill, some time ago. It sought to amend your Ohio law against mob violence by defining a mob as an assemblage of ten or more persons. I did not feel that a change of this kind would be at all helpful to the purpose of the law and successfully opposed it before the committee. opposed and a substitute bill, a copy of which I enclose, has been approved by all interested parties, in its stead.

Dear Harry:—Your letter of the 28th received, promptly. This is my first opportunity to reply to it. When House bill, No. 345, was received, which you kindly sent me, I was convinced that it was but one of the many efforts of the Ku Klux Klan in this state to open the way as far as possible, to the successful prosecution of their "night" work. I felt this same way about the Springfield, Ohio, "jim crow" school fight in its earliest days and you know it turned out to be a fact. I want to compliment you on the work, thus far, you have done against Senate bill, No. 223, and your good work in having indefinitely postponed House bill, No. 345. Also to assure you that "The Old Reliable" Gazette is even more anxious to praise aggressive, loyal workers of the race than captious individuals claim it is to criticize. You are doing splendid work. Keep it up and you can always depend upon the whole-hearted support of both my paper and myself. Sincerely. Yours for the race. Harry C. Smith. Ohio: House of Representatives. Columbus, O., March 30, 1923. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio. My Dear Mr. Smith:—I am pleased to advise you that the original Senate bill, No. 233, providing for a separate ("jim crow") institution at Wilberforce, has been successfully This Country Doomed! Unless Equal Justice Is Meted Out To All - The King Is King! Klan! The King Is King! The Geezers! (Special to The Gazette) The death of two white men and the driving away of a few others forced out the militia in Louisiana, brought the investigators of the federal government as well as that of Louisiana to the scene, exposed the inside rottenness of the Ku Klux Klan, and also forced the Attorney General to say that law and order have ceased to function in Louisiana. Think of this. This righteous uprising in Louisiana and Washington because a few whites were deprived of their lives and rights. But think of it, the cry of millions, of our murdered, lynched and oppressed citizens all over the south cannot get the south to flinch nor the north to stop long enough to consider it. This is a sample of American justice and righteousness. Everything that has been done in Louisiana should have been done long ago. It appears that the scales of justice in this country will not work until some white man is hurt. This same country in its hurt, mutilated, cry of religion seems to consider that lynching does not interfere with the functioning of grace in their hearts. The Ku Klux Klan is being fought, even as a secret order, because it dares punish white men. In other words white men of this country have no, confidence in each other. The rule of the white race is at the breaking point. This country, as a republic, has been a sad failure when it comes to the righteous administration of law to all people alike. As a republic we have seen and acknowledged great wrongs but as citizens we have been too spineless to correct them. The underlying conviction in the bosoms of the whites of this country is that "this is a white man's country" and nothing shall be done to white men when they make other races feel this. Their illegal practices upon other races have emboldened them to practice upon one another and now the whole thing is gone because confidence in each other is gone. Gentlemen, this country belongs to no one race. It is our country and we must, all of us, have equal justice or the country is doomed! (Rev.) Wm. A. Byrd.

The five carefully selected acts of vaudeville and feature photoplay at the Globe, this week, are pleasing greatly indeed its large nightly audiences with the result that the splendid reputation this theater has earned during the season, thus far, is being ably sustained. If you have not attended, the theater since Sunday do not fail to do so before the end of the week. Commencing Monday, Manager Bob Davis has Bill Pickett our world's champion, in the "Bull-Dogger" as his feature. It is something out of the ordinary, excitingly interesting and decidedly pleasing. Every one of our readers should not fall to take advantage of this splendid opportunity to see something unique on the stage. There will be the usual five splendid acts of vaudeville which Manager Davis assures us will be of the same high standard that has been characteristic of the Globe theater since its reopening last fall.

You will make no mistake in urging the passage of the substitute bill. --- The Workers' Council of the Krupp works at Essen, Germany, in an appeal, launched a few days ago, said: "The murder of millions of men in the World War stands as a permanent accusation against the world." The council is wrong. The murder of millions of men in the World War stands as an accusation against the former war lords of Germany. The new Jersey anti-lynching law is very largely a copy of the Ohio law. The only way to successfully legislate against lynching and mob violence, in this country, is for the several state assemblies to enact laws. Congress cannot enact a constitutional anti-lynching law. This was settled by a U. S. Supreme court decision, many years ago, and it is a waste of time, effort and money to try to make it do so. The freeing of Kleagle Cortner at Springfield, this state, recently, claimed ever since as "a great victory" by the Ohio K. K. K., isn't anything of the kind. The decision of the court was simply that the chief of police had exceeded the authority vested in his office by the law when he arrested the kleagle and practically confiscated the contents of the room in which the lawless organization was holding its meeting. The main reason why the British West Indies will not be annexed to this country is the unanimous and vehement unwillingness of the inhabitants to exchange British for American rule. In nearly all the West Indian colonies our people greatly outnumber the white. They enjoy full citizenship with all its privileges. They are well aware that our people of the southern states have few privileges or rights which anyone in that section of the country feels bound to observe, while conditions in the north are not what they should be. Naturally, therefore, colored British West Indians are unwilling to relinquish their present status and will not do so. Can you blame them? "CAT OUT OF THE BAG" Imperial Wizard Dr. Evans said, Wednesday, to newspaper representatives at Atlanta that the court fight between him and Imperial Emperor W. J. Simmons "would settle once and for all, whether the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan is an institution to be conducted by one individual for his private financial gain, or a great American fraternal order, the affairs of which are in the hands of its members." Now you have it! There can be no misunderstanding of the foregoing. It is exactly what the leading newspapers in the country have been charging for many months, and undoubtedly explains how Simmons and his chief assistant, Clarke, grew so rich in so short a time, and, too, since the organization, or reorganization, of the lawless K. K. K. Even Evans' statement will not have much effect, if any, on the prejudiced, and others at minute, or second, according to the least one of whom is born every Phineas T. Barnum statement of many years ago. If it be true that Ex-Gov. J. Mr. Cox, who was the Democratic nominee for President in 1920, has manifested his disgust over the utterances of Chairman Hull, of the Democratic National Committee, who declared that the Republican administration has accomplished nothing, it is easy to see the Cox line of reasoning. Cox can understand the reaction that is certain to result from the Hull pronouncement. The people of the country know that the Hull assertion is grossly false and the more they think it over the more they will be inclined hereafter to discredit anything that may emulate from Democratic headquarters. Cox has aspirations for 1924 and he doesn't want to go into the campaign under the handicap of a public doubt on the veracity of his party's leaders. He knows, as Mr. Hull also knows, that the Republican administration has not only achieved something, but that it has achieved much. They both know that a vast majority of the people of the country believe in a fair presentation of facts, and that an unfair statement eventually reacts to the injury of its author. Even on the eve of an election, a false statement seldom injures the party or the candidate at whom it is aimed, and certainly such a statement cannot injure the Republican party or President Harding, coming as it does a year and a half before the election. The Cox viewpoint is clear. Mr. Cox wants the league of nations to be the issue in 1924 as it was in 1920. On that question there is no doubt as to party attitude now, as there was no doubt in 1920. Mr. Cox is in favor of going into the league and President Harding is in favor of staying out. There can be no misrepresentation or misunderstanding on that score. That being true, Mr. Cox would naturally resent any misstatements on other subjects that would create doubt as to the sincerity of the leaders with whom he must work in a campaign. He knows that the records are against Mr. Hull. He knows that certain tax laws have been repealed, that Federal expenses have been reduced, that a practical budget system has been put into effect, that limitation of armament treaties were negotiated, that limitation of armaments has been commenced, that the army of the unemployed has been put to work, that the farmers have been pulled out of the depression of 1920-21, that nearly 100,000 persons have been taken off the federal payroll, that private business is suffering less from the hampering activities of bureaucrats, that Liberty Bonds have been brought back approximately to par, that interest rates have been reduced, that the British debt has been funded and is being paid, that our relations with all other nations are friendly, that all lines of industry are thriving, and that the Republican tariff law has not brought the ruin predicted for it by the Democrats in Congress. All that being true and known to Mr. Cox as it is to the people of the country, it is easy to understand why he should disapprove of the Hull declaration that "the Republicans have accomplished nothing." The Cox argument would be: Conceding that all these things have been done, yet the Republicans have kept the United States out of the League of Nations and have failed to help in the restoration of Europe. That argument, in Mr. Cox's opinion, would justify retirement of President Harding and the election of himself. Whether the Hull view or the Cox view of campaign issues is the better, the Democrats of the country will decide when they make their platform in 1924 and nominate their candidate.

PRIME SPORT NEWS Jim Taylor's Cleveland Nationals had their first work out, this noon, and the men look to have the stuff to make a fine club. Taylor, former manager of the Tate's Stars, says that his club, this season, will beat anything that he has ever put out and if that is true he will have a number one club as we know that Taylor gave us the best club that Cleveland ever had. He has some very likely-looking young men and after he works them for a few weeks they will be able to play the best of them.

Sometimes ago, our esteemed conferes of the New York Age made much the same comment on an editorial excerpt taken from The Gazette.

IS IT OF ANY USE TO CONTEND 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, dewns 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 discrimination may continue.

If you must have separate schools and cannot do without them, go back South until you get enough, then come back here. In the past, the schools are preachers who, in their desire to create positions for daughters and relatives, are blind to the harm they are doing the race. Easter was well observed at E. Mt. Zion Baptist church. The choir rendered a beautiful cantata at the morning service and the pastor spoke most interestingly on "Resurrection." The church was prettily decorated with palms and flowers.

The Editor of The Gazette comes in contact with business men of about all grades and kinds, but rarely has the good fortune to meet the equal of President Joseph of The Home Shoe Co., in the Haltnorth building on the northeast corner of E. 55th St. and Woodland Ave. He is a gentleman, and all of his assistance to the store, apparently have imbibed his affability and careful courteous treatment of all they come in contact with. It is a real pleasure to visit that store, stocked and equipped better than any other of the kind in that section of the city. You can get any kind of footwear you want, better and cheaper than you will "down town" or elsewhere in such a store, especially in such a few stores anywhere this city afford. Go to The Home Shoe Co., at 2577 E. 55th St., and be convinced. Mrs. Nancy Vaughen, age 71, and Mrs. Anne James, age 67, barefoot "Messengers of the Spirit" from "down home", Eutah. Ala., clad in flowing robes and tight-fitting turbans of white, arrived in Cleveland, Monday, from Detroit, warning the people of "a great disaster coming to the city of which they have laws of the Sabbath". They also said solemnly: "there is too much of cooking and working, buying and selling on Sunday. We have been divinely ordered to tell people of the approaching disaster." They claim that they have been walking over the face of the earth with their dire message for the past 26 years—during which they have been spensed with foot-gear even in the coldest weather. They went to see Probate Judge Alex H. Hadden in his court room but he was absent. From there they went to the city hall but Mayor Kohler was too busy to see them. They said they were "specially" ordered by the Lord to tell Judge Hadden because he would tell the people of the city great deal cooler in Detroit while they were there, and that it was snowing. They left, Thursday for Cincinnati. Dr. J. K. Nickens, local representative of the Indianapolis Freeman, had the following in his Cleveland letter to that paper, recently: "Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, returned recently from Springfield, after spending part of three months teaching a mixed school. His subject, "Jim Crow School." His scholars were mayor, judges, lawyers, ministers, teachers, business men, women and children of all grades. He defeated the "jim crow" school. Mr. Smith was a lawmaker in the Ohio legislature for six years and passed many bills. One was to pay $5000 to heirs for lynching by a mob. All the states should have the same kind of a law, Champaign county paid out $15,000 for a work in Licking county, paid out more than $5,000 for a white man who was lynched. As soon as they found out they had to pay $5,000 in every case, they stopped for a while. We want men in the legislatures all over this country who will do something worth while, like the fearless editor of The Gazette, does." Thanks! doctor. Our advertisers want you trade.

FISH RUSH TO BITE ON ELECTRIC BAIT Lamp, When Dropped in Water Close, to Hook, Draws Finny tribe in Droves. Fisherman, your problem has been solved! Gone forever are the hours of weary waiting for nibbles, if a new in- vention continues to justify the expecta- tions of its originator. With the aid of this invention, all fisherman will have to do hereafter is pull them in. lashing by electricity—that's what the new scheme is in a nutshell. The invention is simple. It consists merely of an electric lamp inducted in a strong glass container, a float to regulate the depth of the glass, a coil of wire and a few batteries to energize the lamp. The wires are insulated from the water by a length of rubber tubing and the batteries stored in a portable box on shore. The flexibility on the tubing, however, does not permit it to bend under the stress of flowing water. A small switch mounted on the outside of the box completes or opens the circuit to the lamp at will. When the fisherman is ready for operations he sets his float at the proper place and drops the lamp into the water. He then allows his line to hang alongside the lamp and proceeds to make himself comfortable. The fish soon crowd around to view the electrical display and when one attempts to relieve the hook of its bait, the angler pulls him in. After all of the fish at one place have been drawn from their hiding places, the fisherman turns off his light and dravs it shoreward. The tubing is now coiled and placed with the lamp and float in the box containing the batteries and, picking up his box and dravs tackle, the merry angler proceeds to invade another choice spot where the fish have as yet not been introduced to the wonders of electricity. South American Says They Have Made Him and His friends Well. Now the way to health is declared to be the lowly banana—and authority for the statement is none other than Thomas A. Edison. When Gen. Rafael Reyes, former president of Columbia, South America, arrived in Washington, D. C., a few days ago on a diplomatic mission, a friend remarked that he was looking much better than when he was in the capital two years previous. The general is 65 years old. Then the former Colombian president revealed the secret of his health. Bananas, he asserted, were responsible for his condition. He said Mr. Edison had advised him to eat them, and quoted the inventor in explaining the nutritive value of the food. That Mr. Edison held such a view previously had not been generally known. "General," said Mr. Edison, in giving his simple health formula, "the stomach is like the boiler of a steam engine. It must be kept clean to work with regularity. Chemical analyses have been made of all the fruits and vegetables of the temperate and tropic zones, in search for one which would give strength to vital cells by containing the three elements essential to — nourishing food and tonic to purify the blood, phosphorus for the brain, and, what is more important, an efficient and mild laxative for the stomach. "Every morning, two hours before rising, eat one or two very ripe bananas — the peel must be black — and mastache them carefully. Immediately afterward drink one large glass of very cold water. For two hours afterward lie in bed, which facilitates the cleansing of the stomach and the assimilation of the phosphorus and nutritive substances." "I have not failed one day in the last two years to follow this beneficial regime," said General Reyes," and it has given me back my health. Numerous friends in Patagonia, Chile, Ecuador, Peru, Panama and other countries where I have traveled and to whom I gave this remedy have affirmed its efficacy. "Unfortunately, it is difficult to change one's habits, and out of perhaps one hundred individuals there will only be two who possess the energy to follow the banana course of treatment. The treatment relieves or cures dyspepsia, heartburn disorders of the liver and kidneys, and even obesity. For children it is excellent, also for weak and enemic persons. I give this great cure to the world, that everybody may profit by the wise advice of Mr. Edison." The Old Sermon Problem. "That's what I call a finished sermon," said a lady to her husband as they wended their way home from church. OLD PAPER MONEY IS SOLD BY U. S. LAST YEAR'S SUPPLY BRINGS MORE THAN $25,000. First Goes Thru Machine Process of Destruction—Bought to Make Souvenirs. Uncle Sam is never too busy managing the Government to pick up an honest dollar on the side. Part of his income is from rent of a Chinese restaurant, which operates in a Government owned building, and he constantly is doing business with secondhand furniture dealers and buyers of junk. That the government never gives away anything it lawfully can sell is shown by the fact that it sells the refuse of the money it destroys. Of what use is the pulp of macerated paper money? Of no use whatever. That is, what officials of the Government said for many years. But that it has value is shown by the books of the Treasury Department, which show that last year Uncle Sam disposed of his stock of macerated money pulp for more than $25,000. There were many bidders for it and it finally was disposed of to a New York manufacturer. This is what he does with it: Have you seen in a souvenir shop gray designs of the Capitol, the White House and the Washington Monument, which the salesman informs you are "made o. money?" If you have pursued your investigation you have been told that the Washington monument, for example, is made of macerated money, which once had value as a circulating medium of so many thousands of dollars, the amount being determined largely by the way the salesman sizes up the prospective purchaser. Sometimes he will attempt to "get away with" the statement that the souvenir represents what once was a million dollars. It can be had for a dime. Paper money is never macerated so long as the Government can keep it in circulation. When the bills grow so vigorous they are becoming indistinct and are looked upon suspiciously as possible germ carriers, the banks send them to the nearest sub-treasury or direct to the Treasury Department in Washington. At the treasury a man washes them, with a view to making them again presentable, by putting them thru a machine which gives them a chemical bath and washes and irons them. If they cannot be cleaned by this method they are condemned and delivered to a commission created by law for destruction. This commission consists of a representative of the Secretary of the Treasury, of the United States treasurer and a civilian, who represents the people of the United States. In the presence of these commissioners the worn-out bills first are placed in a chemical solution which extracts the ink. Then the paper is fed to a machine which has a system of knives, which cut it into bits. These bits are run thru rolls, emerging as sheets which are delivered to the manufacturer, who converts them into souvenirs of Washington. The value once possessed as money by the souvenir exists only in the imagination. No estimatable valuation can be placed upon the pulp of which it is composed for the reason that bills of various denominations are macerated together. A thousand dollar bill and a one dollar certificate may enter upon the macerating process at the same time. Besides, with these bills may be sheets of defective bills which have come from the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and which, according to law, must be destroyed the same as worn-out money. SUN IS COOLING OFF, SAYS LONDON SCIENTIST It will be warm next summer, notwithstanding the fact that the sun is steadily cooling off. The great heat radiator is already old and past its prime of life. In 15,000,000 years it will be stone cold—dead, in fact. So declared Joseph McCabe of London in a lecture before the Pittsburgh Academy of Science and Art. He also told his audience that any unusual disturbance throwing the earth off its balance would mean oblivion for all living things that inhabit it. If the earth should deviate in the slightest degree from its accustomed pathway as it revolves around the sun, it would be "all up" with this world, he said. He quieted the audience, however by declaring that if such a calamity should occur, all will have plenty of time to settle their affairs in America, but their affairs in some other countries might have to be canceled, he ventured to predict. Throughout the northwest, where sheep raising is one of the principal industries and where the weather is not always tempered to the shorn lamb, for the simple reason that shearing and lambing are scheduled for the very early spring, the loss to the herders from deaths, due to exposure in sudden storms sometimes totals 50 per cent of the flocks. For this reason, during the spring the weather bureau installed a special storm warning service for Oregon, Washington and Idaho sheep ranges. Help "Tow Away You and or an Acq THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 1923 The man who made transcontinental telephony possible announced a few days ago that he had completed an invention that would free wireless telegraphy from static interference, much the same trouble that so long hindered the transcontinental telegraph. He is Prof. Michael I. Pupin, who came to America in 1874 a penless Serbian immigrant. His inventions already have netted him almost $1,000,000 and his most recent one probable will bring him in a sum running into the hundred thousands. Wireless transmission heretofore has been subject to one serious handicap: a compulsory atmospheric and physical trubles known to be equivalent as static interference. Under such conditions it is often impossible to get a wireless message (bru for days and during portions of almost every day transmission is out of the question. Professor Pupin announced nearly a year ago that he believed he had solved the problem. The other day he stated that he had perfected h'. device and now knew that it would meet all requirements. The value of the invention in time of war is remendous, as it would give the side possessing it a great advantage over its foes. For that reason Professor Pupin asserts he will not make public the secret of his invention until the close of the war unless the United States should be drawn into the conflict, in which case he would reveal it to the government. In the former event, however, the United States would be the first to possess it. This one-time Serbian immigrant also l. the inventor of the present system of ocean telephony. He received $200,000 for that invention. The same "loading" coil that made ocean telephony possible also put an end to the difficulties of transcontinental telephony. He is rated as one of the world's foremost electrical scientists. It was to escape service in the army that Pupin fled to America. He had no dream of becoming a scientist then; he wanted only some peaceful occupation. When he landed in New York he did not have a cent. Drifting from one job to another he finally became a farmhand in New York State. The daughter of the farm owner interested the Serbian lad in education, and Pupin went back to New York City determined to acquire learning. He worked as a "rubber" in a Turkish bath house and in his spare hours studied at the night school at Cooper Union. He progressed so fast that when a friend obtained for him o scholarship at Adelphia College he was able to hold his own with the other students. From Adelphia College he went to Columbia University, then to Cambridge in England, and finally to the University of Berlin, where he studied under the German master scientists. He came back to America as a professor at Columbia University, a position which he still holds. The Serbian Government several years ago acknowledged his service to humanity by making him honorary consul general to New York. NEW ENGLAND CAPTAIN FISHES UP A FORTUNE Ambergris Worth $40,000 Found Off South American Coast. A small fortune in ambergris, estimated at about $40,000, has been faded up off the coast of South America by Captain Joseph F. Lewis of the brig Viola. Word was received at New Bedford, Mass., by the owners of the brig that the Viola had found 150 pounds of the rare gray substance which is used in the manufacture of costly perfume. Captain Lewis reported that his catch was 150 pounds. Experts at New Bedford said that the current price for ambergris was $250 per pound and declared that a conservative estimate of the value of the discovery was $37,500. MUSIC IN MOVIE MAKING Phonograph Used to Bring "Mood" on Actors. Picture the sweet country maid of a motion picture studio dreaming of her lover in a far-off land. A talking machine—yes, a real talking machine—is started and the strains of "I hear You Calling Me" are heard. "You see," says the director, "the important part that the talking machine can be made to play in the production of a motion picture. In the course of time directors will realize that the talking machine can play the part of 'assistant.' It is certainly an invaluable aid in creating emotions. "We know how music enhances the effect of the motion picture as presented in the theater. The audience does not often realize the importance of the musical accompaniment. But, omit the music, and the difference is felt in a moment. The effect that music has upon the spectator is analogous to its effect upon the actor. He responds readily to the musical stimulus." No Second-Hand Stuff for Her. Betty on a visit to her aunt, being offered for her lunch some fragments left over from Sunday dinner, politely declined. "Why, dear, don't you like turkey?" inquired her aunt. "Only when it's new," said Betty.

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. Sec. 12341. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay more 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. Miled by the foolishly manufactured outey for the passage of the Beaty bill, a few years ago, the Akron Beacon Journal published an editorial to which the editor of The Gazette replied, calling its attention to the fact that the Ohio Civil Rights law was good law and did not need amending. The following letter from Judge Grant, former presiding judge of the Court of Appeals of the Eighth District of Ohio, is self explanatory: Ohio. The Glazer Cleveland, O. M. Dean Sir: Observing your city, in the case of -Journal, this city, f ventures to the Ohio Law case, a coverate 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 furies, in administering it. Not a word was said by the Beacon-Journal when the Forman case was reviewed.
