Edwards, former 100 and 200-metre champion of Great Britain upon his arrival here the week previous. Edwards is also colored, but nevertheless, received the warm-reception from the N. Y. A. A. U. officials and track stars of this country. He is probably the best educated athlete, white or colored. In America today, having graduated from universities in Germany and England. He is also specially trained as an accountant and hopes to enter that field in this country. Siki is more intelligent than the average white pugilist and makes a good and neat appearance. He may meet Kld Norfolk in October. Battling Sikl Arrives. Battling Skii Arrives. New York City.—Accompanied by his manager, Lucien Defremont, and two white French. boxers, Roger Diamond and Charles Reymond, a bantamweight and a featherweight, Louis Phal, better known as Battling Skii, the Senegalese boxer and light heavyweight champion of the world by virtue of his victory over Georges Carpentier, arrived here Saturday, Sept. 1, aboard the steamship Berengaria. He is well built and looks the part of a real fighter. Skii stands five feet ten inches in height and weighs 175 pounds. He is 24 years old and was born in San Luis de Senegal, West Africa. After spending Saturday taking in the sights of the city and visiting the Commonwealth Sporting club in Harlem in the evening, the Skii party left. Sept. 2, for Manhasset, L. L., where Skii will get himself into condition for bouts at the same training camp where Eugene Criquay, ex-featherweight champion, of the world, conditioned himself for his battles in this country.

In the second Baddy Saunders light-weight champion of the National Guard, won a close decision over Willis Pike (white). Jack McVean. Also American white-weight champion, earned an easy victory over Sailor Darden (white) in the final bout. Bottling Siki and this manager had ring-side seats. Daily papers announced, last week, that Tex Rickard has Siki's consent to stage a match between the latter and Harry Wills in October in his big arena at Jersey City, N. J. It is not thought that Wills will consent. He and his manager are still hot on Champion Jack Dempsey's trail. Boxing experts contend that Wills is the only heavyweight labeled as "dangerous" on the Dempsey horizon. Harry is a clean-living, well-mannered coloured man, knows how to mind his own business and all that, but the shadow of Jack Johnson still lies atthwart the prize ring even today and said shadow is dark enough to blot out Wills' chances for a match with Dempsey for a long time to come.—Sport-writer in local daily paper. Hubbard and Johnson Win. Chicago, Ill.-Dearl Hart Hubbard, University of Michigan's crack broad jumper, successfully defended his title as national champion at Stagz field, Sept. 1, against the country's best jumper, including the holder of the world's record, E. O. Gourdin, former Harvard university star, now competing under the colors of the Dorchester A. C. of Boston. Gourdin took third, place, second place going to Bob Legendre, former Georgetown university lad (white). Hubbard's first try was 24 feet 7½ inches. His best mark of the day was 24 feet 7¾ inches, which gives him the title of national A. A. E. champion for 1923. His mark was a quarter of an inch shorter than Sol Butler's American record, made in 1920. Gourdin holds the world's record of 25 feet 3 inches and it looks like it will be some time before that mark is shattered. Hubbard was given a big aviation by the crowd. He won first place in the hop, stop and jump contest, going 47 feet ½ inch and tied Murchison (white) of the Newark A. C. for in- finity (Continued on Page 2) FULTON SCHOOL OPEN! The Court's Order Oicled in the Matter of the Attendance of Pupils—McCord's K. K. K. School Board Candidates. Stirnfield, O. The C. R. P. Leanne's victory in the Fulton school light was officially recognized when school was opened, Tuesday morning. The fact that nothing had been said or done previous to that time about returning the transferred children to Fulton school caused some apprehension as to Supt. McCord's intention in the matter. Accordingly upon the advice of our attorneys many of the parents of our children in the district had sent their children to other schools. When the schools were opened, Tuesday morning, ALL pupils, with a few exceptions, were ordered to return to the school in their respective districts. Contrary to the claims that were made to McCord when he was trying to establish a "jing crow" school, the orders have generally obeyed. Indeed, many white children have expressed satisfaction that they can now attend school near their homes. Notwithstanding the general feeling of possible trouble attending the parade of the lauk kian, last Saturday evening, the event was marked by nothing more serious than a few individual cases. The McCord kian candidate for the school board are having trouble in keeping up the appearance of having some or possible captors. Two prominent men have in many days entered demands that their names, which appeared as sponsors of the trophy Bacon-Smith ticket, had been authorized. W. F. Turtle, hard core merchant is based a statement, last Saturday, in which he states that he did not authorize the use of his name in connection with that ticket and that he intended to vote for Beckett, Evans, and Endler to clean up the "disgraceful conditions that exist in our schools." In Sandys paper, H. J. Churchmar, druegist, also states that the use of his name on the Graff-Bacon-Smith petition was not authorized. The Famous "Shuffle Along" Co. Headed by Sissle and Blake, To Hold Forth at the Metropolitan Theater All Next Week. With the unbroken line at the box office and an advance sale that indicates a sellout engagement, "Shuffle Along," the sensational all-Afro-American musical gem is in for a record week's business at the Metropolitan theatre, where next Sunday, it comes for a week's engagement. No performance given by our people has ever attained such popularity in New York, where this "Shuffle" success was the fad of the '400' for two seasons at the Gird St. Music Hall. The original stars, Sissle and Blake, who will be seen in their original roles, have THE MASTER Noble Sissie written a number of tuneful melodies, popular anthems they are "Wild About Harry," "Randanna Days," "Love Will Find A Way," "Honey-suckle Time," "If You Haven't Been Vamped By A Brown Skin, You Hatroun Roen Vamped At All," "Shuffle Along," and "Are't You Coming Back to Maryland, Mary Ann." The splendid long run cast that had much to do with its Broadway success and who will present this musical hit on the London stage, this winter, includes Lotte Gie, Edith Spencer, Four Harmony Kings, I. H. Browning, Charles Davis, William H. Hann, Lou Payton, Joe Simms and the New York Music Hall orchestra. There Are 68 "Negro" Towns. There are sixteenth "Nogro" towns in the United States. The large-ist, Baxton, Iowa, with 5,000 population, has approximately 1,000 whites. The next in size are Brooklyn, Ill., and Boley, Okla., 3,000 each. Mound Bayou, of which we once heard much, has only 750. New Jersey has Snow Hill, with a population of 1,250. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS OnTheFaceofTheEarth! Says Southern White Woman Writer of Georgia "Crackers" Something of the Origin of Southern Whites—Their Miserably Poor Showing of Today—Southern Negroes in the Lead—Very Interesting and Illuminating By H. L. Mencken: Nearly the whole of Europe could be lost in the South—that stupendous region of fat farms, shoddy cities and paralyzed cerebrums; one could throw in France, Germany and Italy and still have room for the British Isles. And yet for all its size and all its wealth and all the "progress" it habbles of, it is almost as sterile, artistically, intellectually, culturally, as the Sahara desert. There are single acres in Europe that house more first rate towns in all the states south of the Potomac; there are probably more worthwhile men in some single mile north of it in America. If the whole of the late Confederate war to be engulfed by a tidal wave tomorrow the effect upon the process of civilized men in the world would be but little greater than that of a food on the Yangtze River. It would be impossible in all history to match so complete a dystopia of a civilization as we see in the South. It is, indeed, amazing to contemplate so vast a vacuum and emptiness. What is needed down there, before the vexation is intolerably approached, is a survey of the population by a competent ethnologists and anthropologists. The immigrants of the North have been studied at great length. But the older stocks of the South, and particularly the dominant poor white trash, have never been investigated scientifically, and most of them are probably wrong. For example, the generalization that they are purely Anglo-Saxon in blood. This I doubt very seriously. The chief strain down there is Colt rather than Saxon, particularly in the hill country. French blood, too, shows itself here and there, and so does Spanish, and so does German. The Germans entered from the northward, by way of the limestone belt just east of the Alleghanes. Again, it is very likely that in some parts of the South many of the plebeian whites have considerable Negro blood. Interbreeding under contrainage produces some very light halfbreeds at an early day, and no doubt appreciable numbers CONGRATULATES "THE OLD RELIABLE." Washington, D. C., Sept. 12, '23 Hon. Harry C. Smith, M.D. Latter Gazette, Cleveland, O. My Dear Harry:--I congratulate you and "The Old Reliable" 'on the forty years of heroic service to this noble people. It is a career that kings might envy. To defend the Lifesaved, to strike the strong who oppress you, to know that through you the sacred cause of democracy has advanced even one step is the supreme satisfaction that comes to a noble soul. Let others revel in their quest and conquest of gold, for the oppressor, has abundance for the hire of his minions! Let them bask in the favor of those who hold the seats of power. But some day the right will triumph and we will receive that greatest of rewards, namely, the knowledge of having helped to usher in the perfect day. Nevil H. Thomas. Springfield. Ohio.—Mrs. Emma Matthews and Wm. Henry Young were quietly married, Saturday. Our boys of the American Legion made a "sphincter showing in the parade. Monday. There were de- reations from Chilicothe, Lima and Springfield.—Dr. R. J. Winn is very ill.—Mr. Albert Thompson is home. He spent the summer in Utica, N. Y.—Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Whyte, Mr. and Mrs Wm. Petoerd, Jr., and Mr. and Mrs. George Dewson motored to Deleware. Sunday, to attend a family reunion. Jack Johnson Turned Down Again. The New Jersey Boxing Commission has again barred Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, from participating in boxing bouts in that state. Johnson has been matched to fight Billy Misko at the Broad A. C. in Newark, on Sept. 12, but the Commission refuses to give its sanction to the bout. IN UNION IS STRENGTH E COPY FIVE CENTS Race of The Earth! White Woman Writer "Crackers" Southern Whites—Their Miss of Today—Southern Lead—Very Inter- Illuminating of them went over into the white race by the simple process of changing their abode. Not long ago I read a curious article by an intelligent Negro, in which he stated that it is easy for a very light Negro to pass as white in the South on account of the fact that large numbers of southerners accepted as white have distinctly Negroid features. Some of the worst blood of western Europe flows in the veins of the southern poor white, now poor no longer. The original strains, according to every honest historian, were extremely corrupt. Philip Alexander Bruce, a Virginian, of the old gentry, says in his "The Institutional History of Virginia in the Seventeenth Century," that the first native-born generation was largely illegitimate. "One of the most common offenses against morality committed in the lower ranks of life in Virginia during the seventeenth century," he says, "was bastardy." "The mothers (white) of these bastards," he continues, "were chiefly indentured servants, and had belonged to the lowest class in their native country." Fanny Kemble Butler, writing of the Georgia "poor whites of a century later, described them as the most degraded race of human beings claiming an Anglo-Saxon origin that can be found on the face of the earth—filthy, lazy, ignorant, brutal, proud, penniless savages." The marks of their origin are still unpleasantly plentiful. It is not by accident that Negroes of the South are making faster progress, economically and culturally, than the masses of the whites. It is not by accident that the only visible esthetic activity in the South is wholly in their hands. No southern composer has over written music so good as that of half a dozen mulatto composers who might be named. Even in politics the Negro reveals a curious superiority. Despite the fact that the race question has been the main political concern of the southern whites for two generations, to the political exclusion of everything else, they have contributed nothing to its discussion that has impressed the rest of the world so deeply and so favorably as three or four books by southern Negroes. LOSES HALF OF ITS READERS! The Magazine, the Crisis, Does This In the Last Five or Six Years—Dyer Bill Expense. New York City.—The thirteenth annual report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for the year of 1922 was made public recently. The report covers the finances and activities of the Association in combating race prejudice in the United States. It shows that the Crisis magazine, official publication, of the Association, had an income of $53,653 and spent $51,603. The average circulation of the Crisis in 1922 was 41,083 copies; compared with 95,000 copies in 1917. Dr. 'DrBois' study of the figures indicates that the Crisis is not half so widely read as it was five years ago. The report of Dr. Joel E. Spingarn, treasurer, shows that the association received from all sources $71,642 last year and spent $71,078. Included in this money raised is $13,000 by the Anti-Lynching crusaders. Of this fund, $6,980 was spent in full and half-page anti-Lynching advertisements in white newspapers of the country. The report also contains complete statistics on the 61 lynchings in the United States for last year, and recounts the futile efforts of the organization to secure the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill by the United States Congress. Eastern Star Officers. Urbana, O.—The recent Eastern Star election of officers resulted as follows: J. H.

SATURDAY, SEPT. 15, 1923. The French government has issued its second notice to Americans to not bring their racial prejudice into that country. If they do, they will be invited to leave. "The Birth (Rape) of a Nation" was also barred from Paris. Good! --- Federal, state and municipal governments have tolerated the ku klux klan until the time is fast approaching when they will be forced to "ditch" the lawless organization as a matter of self-protection. President Coolidge has NOT promised to or indicated that he would support the Dyer Federal Anti-Lynching bill. Newspaper statements, tending to indicate the contrary, are misleading many of our people. The Afro-American unit of the U. S. Veterans' Bureau, Washington, D. C., has been abolished. Was this done to get rid of a "jim crow" department? If so, why not have abolished the unit and retained its employees, distributing them in the bureau just as are representatives of other groups of Americans? Mrs. Alex. H. Martin has written a very pretty and interesting little story entitled, "How Richard and Angela Won the Prize," which has been published and illustrated by the Congregational H. M. Society, 287 Fourth Ave. N. Y. City. The story breathes the right spirit. "Richard" is a little Afro-American and "Angela" a little Italian. Send for a copy of the story. It will please all, the old and young. Delegates' and visitors' railroad fare to conventions during the month of August alone cost the race nearly a million dollars much of which should have been put into some business if not in banks. Many of them will need it greatly this winter. The same is true of many of our people who do not own homes but who are buying automobiles that are used for ploasure only. Judging from the appearance of the Washington (D. C.) Eagle, last week, Editor J. Finley Wilson, recently re-elected grand exalted ruler of our Elks, had better get on back home and give his paper a little more of his personal attention. Too much church and lodge is bad for individuals and organizations of all kinds, including newspaper enterprises. Some day our people will awaken to a proper realization of this fact. They should have, long ago. Marcus Garvey has been admitted to $25,000 ball, pending the result of his appeal from the sentence imposed upon him in the U. S. District court at N. Y. City, June 21, '23, when he was sentenced to pay a fine of $1,000 and serve five years in the federal prison at Ft. Leavenworth, Kan. At that time, he was given four months in which to arrange his personal affairs but refused ball. This latter was not fair, to say the least, and is undoubtedly the reason he has been admitted to bail at this late day. Alabama has a state law which makes it a crime for a white person to treat an Afro-American patient, or an Afro-American to treat a white patient, in public hospitals that state. This ought to assist Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the Veterans Bureau, Washington, D.C., to place an all Afro-American personnel in the Tuskegee (Ala.) U. S. Veterans' hospital. According to latest reports, he intends to appoint whites superintendent, execu- tive officer and clinician of the hospital. This, contrary to the wish and desire of the late President Harding. It would, too, be "lowering the U. S. colors" to the Alabama ku kluxers. We hope the reports are not true. A SURRENDER TO THE KU KLUX. Col. R. H. Stanley, the prejudiced native Alabamian, placed in charge of the U. S. War Veterans hospital for our soldiers at Tuskegee, Ala., when it was opened, several months ago, has finally been transferred, sent to Fort Bayard, N. M., the second largest government hospital in this country. His successor at Tuskegee is Major Griffith, a native Tennessee, formerly of the federal hospital at Alexandra, Iowa. His two immediate assistants, in charge of the Tuskegee hospital, are to be white also, and the rest of the personnel of the institution Afro-Americans, says Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the War Veterans Bureau, at Washington, D. C., under which the Tuskegee hospital functions. This is a surrender in part to the Alabama ku klux committee of "prominent white citizens of Tuskegee" that reflects anything but credit upon those making it and the great U. S. Government they (mis) represented. We expected proper action from Gen. Frank T. Hines and, with the rest of our people of the country, are greviously disappointed. It is simply another of the many good causes of complaint that are going to cost Republican candidates everywhere in this country hundreds and, in some cases, thousands of votes, next year, when votes will be needed most. PRIME SPORT NEWS. (Continued From Page 1) dividual point winner, each athlete getting 10 points. Johnson Takes Five-Miler. The 5 mile run brought R. Earl Johnson of the Edgar Thomson Steel Works, Braddock, Pa., defending his title against Willie Ritola of the Finnish-American club. Johnson, in the last 100 yards, gave the spectators something to talk about by startling everyone with a wonderful burst of speed to the finishing line. His time was 26:05.2. By winning the race, he negotiated his seventh national title in 12 starts, the other five times winning second places. At one time he was 5.10 and cross country national A. A. U. champion. The A. B. C.'s vs. Tate Stars. The Tate Stars have been strengthened. No one questions that, or that they are not playing bang up baseball, these days. The same can be said of the Indianapolis A. B. C. team with the great field and home-run hitter, Charles Levine, its head coach, doubt one of the greatest ball players on earth, and naturally the fans are all anxious to look him over since his rise to his present position, this year. The Tates have strengthened their only weak spot in acquiring Jeffries, star third baseman, formerly with the Detroit Stars and will undoubtedly give a good account of themselves in the series of games with the A. B. C. to start this week Saturday at Tate Field. "This too, in spite of the fact that the Indiana is burning up" our National Baseball League, thus far, this season. The Tates intend to stop them right here in Cleveland this trip; so look for battles royal, Saturday, Sunday. CLEVELAND Monday and Tuesday. Charleston, their leader, is a 10 3-5 second man in a baseball suit, a 400 batter who is an expert at bunting, dragging and fallaway hook-sliding, and has brains that work fast and drive a perfect human machine at top speed. Such is the great Charleston of the Indianapolis A. B. C.'s. "Bobo" Leonard, star outfielder of the Tates, whose portrait we give herewith, is a SOME player himself and has produced a face with whom he has been popular because of the uniformly good and at times wonderful work he has done, this season. Do not miss any of the games, especially the double-header, Sunday, and be sure to take your lady on Tuesday, ladies' day.

Gold leaf which is used by dentists for filling teeth, by sign writers, jewelers and others is produced by gold beaters who begin with it in the form of wide bars or nuggets, says the Pathfinder. It is weighed and melted into thin ribbons an inch wide before beating begins. After cutting the ribbons into inch squares a stalwart workman begins the beating process. Each leaf after being beaten comparatively thin, is transferred to a mold where the beating continues for four hours. A wood in hammer weighing from 10 to 19 pounds is used, the gold resting on a sheepskin cushion laid over a granite block. Absolutely pure gold could not be satisfactorily beaten, so a small amount of silver or copper is added to pure gold in order to make it spread properly. Usually gold intended for beating purposes is from 22 to 23 karats fine. When the beating process has been completed the gold leaf goes to the packers, usually girls. In packing the leaf is handled more by the aid of the breath than by the fingers, for the manipulation of the thin leaf is too delicate work to be entrusted to clumsy fingers. By means of wooden pincers the packers lift the unshaped leaves out of the molds, place them on sheepskin cushions and then, by gently blowing on them, flatten them. They are then cut into perfect squares, placed between the leaves of a book specially made for the purpose and flattened again with the breath. A book consists of 25 leaves and the daily output of a skilled packer is about seventy books. FIRST SILVER WEDDING WAS ARRANGED IN 987 Plans Lald by Hugues Capet, Then King of France Followed The fashion of silver weddings dates back to the reign of Hugues lapet, king of France in 1987. Once as Hugues was arranging his uncle's affairs he found on one of the estates a servant who had grown gray in the service of his relative. On the farm with this old man was also a serving woman who was as old as he and also unmarried, who had been the most devoted and hard working of the women servants of the king's uncle. When the king heard these praises of the two he ordered them brought before him and said to the woman: "Your service is great, greater than this man's, whose services were great enough, for the woman always finds work and obedience harder than a man, and therefore I will give you a reward. At your age I know of none better than a dowry and a husband. The dowry is here—this farm from this time forth belongs to you. If this man who has worked with you five and twenty years is willing to marry you then the husband is ready." "Your majesty," stuttered the old peasant confusedly, "how is it possible that we should marry, moving already silver hairs?" "Then it shall be a silver wedding," answered the king, "and here I give you a wedding ring," drawing a costly ring from his finger and placing the hands of the thankful old people together. This soon became known all over France and raised such enthusiasm that it became a fashion after 25 years of married life to celebrate a silver wedding—Lippencott's. INTERESTING NEW INVENTIONS Indiana Man Patents Pie Crust Making Device. An Elkhart, Indiana man has obtained a patent on a device for forming crusts for pastries and any other form of edible that is cooked and served in crusts. Instead of a pie be baked in one large pan and then cut up for serving, each pie is baked in a separate crust. The crusts are made on aluminum forms. He has perfected not only a machine to make the forms, but a machine to spread the dough over the forms and a method for hanging the forms in an ordinary gas oven so that several doz of them can be baked at the same time. One machine will make 100 crusts a minute. A paste made of powder resin and wood alcohol is useful as a soldering flux in electrical work, and will prevent the point corroding. VALUABLE OIL STONE DISCOVERED IN TEXAS Employer Finds Hidden Wealth in Western Mountains, Near Southern Pacific Railroad While engaged in exploration in the mountains of west Texas, Charles Laurence Baker of the Bureau of Economic Geology, University of Texas, found large deposits of novaculite, a valuable oil stone, heretofore found in the United States only in the Ouchita Mountains of West Central Arkansas. The novaculite in Texas is found in north central Crawford county, along the line of the Southern Pacific Railroad from Haymond westward to beyond Marathon. A small area of it is found north of the railroad north and northeast of Marathon, but it has by far its largest extent south of the railroad, in which direction it is found for fully fifteen miles. Novaculite is a very fine, very hard, brittle, siliceous rock, of a color varying from pure snow white to a slightly bluish watery tint. There are two kinds, the Arkansas and the Ouachita stones, of each of which there are both hard and soft grades. The Arkansas stone is very hard, very fine grained and slow cutting, and is used chiefly by engravers, wood carvers, jewelers, dentists, machinists, tool makers and cutery makers. The Ouachita is a hard stone, which wears away comparatively fast and both cuts the steel rapidly and produces a fine edge. It can be used for razor hones as well as for sharpening common tools. For sharpening small pointed or very fine edged tools the Arkansas novaculite is considered to be the best whetstone in the world. The novaculite in the Marathon region outcrops in numerous long, narrow and sharp southeast southwest white ridges. The ledges are nearly always steeply upward by the very intense folding to which the rocks of the region have been subjected. The rock when exposed at the surface is always very much shattered into small pieces, but probably larger sized unfractured blocks are to be obtained at a few feet beneath the surface. Some prospecting must be done before the real quality of the stone can be determined. This was also the case in Arkansas, where the rocks in the surface exposures are always very much broken by the various agencies of weather. Tests to determine the quality of the West Texas novaculite are now being made at the laboratory of the Bureau of Economic Geology. The real value of the West Texas novaculite can be determined only after the deposits have been thoroughly prospected, but the probability is that these deposits will prove to be of considerable value. WHY NOAH LIVED 505 YEARS Because in His Time Men Generally Lived Until Worn Out Scientists who see today how few people live to be 100 years old find themselves at a loss to explain how Methuselah managed to live 969 years, while Noah reached the respectable age of 595 years. Recently, however, a discovery has been made which helps to explain this mystery. When the causes of short life nowadays are counted up it is found that most of the deaths are due to disease. Very few people die from old age. And the reason why people die from any one disease is that they have been weakened by other illnesses which they have had or which have been handed down to them by their ancestors. Noah and the other patriarchs had not nearly as many different kinds of diseases to face, because they had not had enough ancestors to hand them down a variety. Consequently their constitutions were not constantly being weakened as are ours today. Another real reason why the patriarchs lived longer than we do now was because in those days the count of humanity was fresher. We Know Their Composition, but How Does It Get There? Many scientists have told us how clouds are made; most of the textbooks on physical geography tell all about them, but it is all guesswork. Clouds are a mystery. It is true they are composed of moisture floating in the air, but how did the moisture get there? It is held that particles of moisture are evaporated from the earth's surface by the heat of the sun. Indeed, the passage of the moisture from the earth to the upper air is quite invisible. It was formerly supposed that this moisture was condensed by the cold of the upper air into rain droplets which formed the clouds. But scientists held that the tiny particles must have something to condense them. They used to tell us that the moisture collected upon dust particles to form into rain drops. Now they are practically agreed that it is something else, but they don't know what.

Paternalism Menaces Business World Present Tendencies of Legislation Held to Endanger Very Foundations of Our Government. AMERICAN BUSINESS PATERNALISTIC LEGISLATION Price fixing, government operation, and other forms of paternality, which individuals and legislators in many states have been noted that at a large public event, the public are being viewed with considerable uneasiness by business men, who has been noted that at a large public event, the public are held during the last few months at least one speaker has dwelt upon the menace to private enterprise represented by the public. At the fifty-seventh annual meeting of The National Board of Fire Underwriters, recently held, the president of the organization delivered the speech, "Our representatives in the legislatures are prone to believe that every evil, or every practice that they think is evil, may be remedied by the public." By statute, personal and business THE N. A. A. C. P. AND LYNCH MURDER. In its recent report, on the lynching of this country, for the first six months of this year, The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People says: "The only thing that will put a stop to lynchings is the enactment into law of legislation that will punish members of mobs, county and state officials, and communities that cause and permit this crime." Quite right, and the legislation must be that of the several State Assemblies, says the U. S. Supreme Court, and not that of the U. S. Congress which has not the power to do so, says the same august body, the court of the last resort and the judicial head in this country. Whether there have been three or "4,000 known lynchings in the United States and scarcely any convictions of members of the mobs and those responsible for this crime" does not alter in the least the U. S. Supreme Court's decision and ruling that the several State Assemblies only have the power to legislate against lynch-murder and mob violence, and it is positively "silly" for the N. A. A. C. P. or any other organization, or person, to say otherwise. It is not a question as to whether anyone else obigate "states rights" in matter" or any other for that matter, but one of LAW, pure and simple, and law that has been passed upon by the-court of the last resort, the highest legal tribunal in the land. Therefore, it is not "surprising that newspapers (and others) continue to argue against Congress legislation against lynching and mob violence" when the U. S. Supreme Court has decided that it cannot enact a constitutional anti-lynch or mob violence law. On the contrary it will kill or the C. P. or any other organization, to continue to lead an effort to accomplish the impossible. The enactment of anti-lynch-murder laws by a number of states in recent years, one at least a border southern state, is convincing proof that it would be far better, more sensible and productive of infinitely greater results for the N. A. A. C. P., and associate organizations, to direct their combined effort to the State Assemblies of the country instead of wasting much valuable time, effort and money bombarding Congress for something it cannot afford, and even if it could it will not. For many years, Ohio was the only state in the Union that had an effective mob violence or anti-lynch-law but it is different now, we are greatly pleased to say. The number of such (state) laws grows slowly but surely each year and, too, in the face of the foolish effort of the N. A. A. C. P. to bull-dozhe the U. S. Congress into doing something it cannot do, according to the U. S. Supreme Court, the deciding power in the matter. Let the A. U. S. follow the laws given it from time to time by the editor of The Gazette ever since it began its futile effort to secure the enactment of a federal anti-lynching "law," and direct its effort to the State Assemblies of the country and thus help mob and lynch-murder going forward so encouragingly. The knowledge of the foregoing facts, more to do the effective work against the than twenty-seven years ago, was what caused us to introduce in the Ohio Assembly and secure the enactment of Ohio's Anti-Lynching or Mob violence law. Undermining Industry conduct of every kind. Laws are piled upon laws. Proposals for state and municipal ownership in various measures are common. "America's business progress—the wonder and envy of the rest of the world has been predicated upon the government," he said. "Best government is that which governs least; that the sound function of government is not to indulge in privateIVATE experiments, but to ensure to each individual security and a fair opportunity to carve his own fortune. The exercise of his individual thrift will facilitate tendencies of legislation endanger the very foundations of our Government. "Suppose capital were to close out its commitments because of the continuing need for paternalistic measures are common. DYER FEDERAL ANTILYLNCHING BILL Editor Gazette, Dear Sir.—Having heard Congressman Dyer's advocacy of the remedial measures of his bill in Congress for the prevention of lynchings within the states, I was moved to a careful search of the authorities to find a basis of constitutionality for its enactment and effective enforcement. With sincere appreciation for the unusual zeal and real enthusiasm that Mr. Dyer puts into his efforts for the enactment of such a bill and not doubting his sincerity in the least, I can not find any precedent by which the measure would be held constitutional by the U. S. Supreme court should it be passed. The greatest good that can be hoped for is the molding of public sentiment against lynching. I fear that this benevolent effect would be more than counteracted by an adverse decision by the Supreme court, holding the same to be unconstitutional. Thus, re-assuring the perpetrators of this national evil further immunity from prosecution and encouraging a stronger activity in the continued commission of these crimes. It is a well established fact, so held by the U. S. Supreme court from time to time, that the police power of a state cannot be taken away from it and exercised by the federal government, save in so far as it may have been delegated to it by the citizens of the several states of the union. Police power is declared to be that power inherent with the existence of the state to regulate by governmental function the peace, health, safety, and morality of its citizens. The congress of the U. S. has no general police powers operative over the several states of the union. Stone vs. Miss., 101 U. S. $14, Road vs. Alz., 94 U. S. $14. In respect to the provision in the Fourteenth amendment to the U. S. Constitution for appropriate legislation by congress for its enforcement, and on which Mr. Dyer bases constitutional foundation for his bill, the U. S. Supreme court has declared that provision to give congress a corrective power of legislation over the states rather than creative or legislative. In other words, when a state legislature faces a face, discriminating between citizens on account of color, race, etc., the congress may enact laws prohibitive to the operation of same. In the Civil Rights bill, passed by congress in 1875 by virtue of the power given it by the Fourteenth Amendment, for the purpose of prohibiting discrimination against Colored people within the states by public places of accommodation, such as hotels, theaters, etc., and public conveyances over land and water, the Supreme court has held such legislation by congress to be clearly unconstitutional, that the congress has no legislative authority to enact such laws Civil Rights cases, 109 U.

If you served ninety days or more in the Spanish-American War, the Chinese Relief Expedition, or in the Philippines prior to July 4, 1902, you will be interested to know Congress has passed a Pension Law of vital interest to you. This law contains two provisions: 1st, it allows pensions to all ex-soldiers, sailors and marines with the above service record who were honorably discharged and who are now over sixty-two years of age; 2nd, it allows pension to those who are at present materially disabled from earning their living by manual labor from disease, if the disability be not the result of their own misconduct. Such disability must be permanent but need not be total. If need not be the result of military service. THE SOLDIER DOES NOT HAVE TO BE SIXTY-TWO YEARS AGO FROM CLAIM OR BREAKDOWN. The amount of pension depends upon the degree of disability and ranges from $12 to $30 per month. Widows of veterans are also allowed pensions. If you wish advice about this law write M. E. Buchanan, Route g.l. Treviilians, Virginia. Prompt action is desirable, as a pension if allowed begins from the filing of the claim. The Act of September 1st, 1922, enlarges the provisions of the Act of June 5th, 1920. This affects many soldiers who have been rejected, increases the pension of widows and children under 16 years of age and other important matters effecting veterans and widows.

When a bullet or shell whizzes past you hear two distinct sounds, which are generally attributed to echo. But echo has nothing to do with them, and the double sound is a strange phenomenon in acoustics that has only just been explained. Commandant Agnus of the French army has presented to the Academic des Sciences the results of a profound study he has made of this double sound. The explanation is that you hear successively the noise produced by the projectile ploughing through the air at the moment of its passage at the height of the listener and the noise of its detonation at the moment of firing, which reaches the ear with the speed of sound. On firing the detonation spreads a circular (more correctly, globular) wave that moves in every direction with the speed of sound, or about 1,000 feet a second. But the projectile itself is rushing through the air with a velocity that steadily decreases. A shell from a 75 cannon has a speed of 1,745 feet a second at the gun's mouth, and a rifle bullet has a speed of more than 2,000 feet, roughly speaking twice that of sound. The noise it makes in flying through the air is continued and outdistances the sound of the explosion, being one-tenth of a second ahead of it at the end of the first 330 yards. STUDIES OPTICS OF FISH Professor Has Honor of Divining Rhetoric in Flounders Eye Why an opossum sniffs his unsatisfied curiosity or a peacock proudly displays its variegated fan tails conceals some deeper mystery than mere sensual or intellectual satisfaction. I has, however, been left to Prof. S. O. Mast of the department of zoology of John Hopkins university to divine the rhetoric in a flounder's eye. Prof. Mast began his research upon the kaleidoscopic changes of color in the flat fish with the knowledge that many animals possess the vital power to metamorphose their flesh in tints and hues so like the background as to be indistinguishable from it. Man has only lately turned this truth into account, as witness the military expedient of turning red and blue clothing on soldiers to grays, khaki and russets. Animals as a rule sinuate their surroundings. The tiger is striped like the lights and shadows of the jungle. The insect called "daddy long legs is easily confused in color and rigidity with twigs of trees. There are, however, many animals whose adoption to the nearby objects is even more perfect than this. 400 YEAR OLD BOOK TURNS UP Lucky Find Reported by Chicago University Officials. Down in the musty unused store rooms of Ellis Hall at the University of Chicago library assistants unearthied a large book bound in yellow, warping parchment; its pages rather melted by time, except for brightly colored initial letters that some for gotten monk had worked on in some forgotten cloister ages ago. "The book was laid before James C. Ai Hanson, associate director of the library. "Eurekal!" said the director. "It's an original Vindelinus de Spira, a copy of De Divinius Institutorum Adversum Gentes of Lactantus, of which there is only one other known copy in the world." "Is it worth money," asked a report er. "Well, judge for yourself. Vindelinus was one of the old Venetian book makers, and this was printed in Venice in 1472. The only other copy is in the British museum. It is worth many thousands of dollars. TRAVELS OF BALANCE WHEEL Surprising Facts About the Little Jigger In Your Watch. The balance wheel of a large watch has the diameter of about 0.75 inch and a circumference of 2.36 inch. As the wheel makes five single oscillations in a second and the amplitude of each oscillation is 15 complete revolutions the rim travels about 18 inches in a second, one mile in an hour and 24 miles in a day. In three years of uninterrupted running which is not unusual says the author of these statements, the travel of the rim of the balance wheel equals or exceeds the circumference of the earth, a distance that a locomotive running ten hours daily at a speed of 20 miles per hour, would take nearly three months to accomplish.

FIND GROUND SLOTHS AS LARGE AS STREET CARS Bones of Animals are Discovered in Asphalt Beds near City of Los Angeles, California In the asphalt beds of Rancho La Brea, a place eight miles from Los Angeles, Cal., there have been discovered the bones of ground sloths which lived 200,000 years ago and were as big as the modern street car, according to a report Homer Dill, taxidermist of the University of Iowa, has prepared on the investigation he made at Rancho La Brea this summer. These might prehistoric animals, if alive today could go poking their noses into the second story windows of our houses with case, Mr. Dill declares. In addition to the ground sloth, the fossils of other extinct animals are found. Among them are specimens of the great sabre-tooth tiger. The excavations have brought to light also the skeleton of a human being. This type of man lived so long ago that the scientists have to estimate the age of this fossil in thousands of years. They are sure that he came early in the evolution of mankind. The beds were formed the scientists believe, by animals wandering into the surface of uncovered asphalt. They were unable to extricate themselves from the sticky mass and died in its clutches. After the flesh had decomposed, the bones gradually sand deeper into the bed, being in that way hermetically sealed. This accounts for the fact that the bones are in a rare state of preservation. The excavation work is in the hands of Los Angeles officials. They are carefully guarding the information of their finds. On that account the report which Mr. Dill was able to bring to scientists and students at the university was unusually interesting PRISONERS MAKE LOCOMOTIVE Miniature Electric Engine that Officials are Proud to Show Cats are Proud to Show. Three inmates of the state reformatory at Iola, Mich., William Adams and P. E. Long of Grand Rapids and a Port Huron man have manufactured a miniature passenger locomotive such as they formerly worked upon when employed by the Pere Marquette. The engine is fully equipped and is five feet two inches high with a track gauge of four and three quarters inches. It has a water gauge, try cocks, steam air gauges, air brakes, pump and governor, engineer's valve, distributing valve and brake rigging. It was made without drawings or cuts. The beiler, cylinders, roads and pilot are of wood, the cab is of steel and so is the tender. Electricity is its motive power. GIRL OF THE WINDJAMMER Few girls' have the experience that has fallen to the lot of Dorothy Anderson, the fifteen year old daughter of the captain of the four masted bark Daylight. With her father and her mother she has made many voyages to strange lands and has sailed more than 100,000 miles aboard the big square riger. She has known the fascination of the Far East, of China and Japan, the wilting heat of tropical islands and the beauties of Melbourne and Sydney. The Daylight has circled the globe several times, and on one of these voyages Dorothy was in the ship's company. Her home is at Aberneth, in Scotland, but she has no desire to go back there while new wonders of the world are in store for her. When the Daylight was in the port of New York last loading case oil for Shanghai Dorothy told some of her experiences. The one which she seemed to enjoy telling most was about a storm which came up suddenly when the ship was off the South American coast bound for New York. "A terrible thing happened during this storm," said she, though really she seemed to think it was a huge joke. "It was at night and I was sleeping in the bed with my mother, Oh, how the wind blew and whined through the rigging! The whole thing came up suddenly and I forgot to close the ports, as father told me to do. "Well, we had the most dreadful flood, mother and I. A big wave came crash up against the side and tons of water seemed to come into our cabin through the port. And then, kersmash, another one before I could get the port closed. Oh, dear, what a wreck in the cabin—all our things swimming about, shoes and clothes and everything, and the room ankle deep in water. "Hurry Dorothy, and close the port before another one comes," said mother. I did so and we finally cleaned up the cabin so that father never knew we were flooded. But it was funny seeing all those things swimming about, though. The storm was just one of those sudden tropical blows, but it came up so suddenly that it blew some of the light sails away." Dorothy has a lot of friends in Shanghai, Yokohama and Kobe, which are the ports the Daylight usually calls af on her outbound trip. A Japanese merchant in Kobe gave her a very big doll on the last voyage out, and a smart little dog, which she has named Fuji. Both doll and dog receive the greatest consideration and care from the captain's daughter.—N Y. Sun.
