C.—Prof. Neval H. Thomas has issued a statement making clear the issues in the fight against climate change in nothing beach the nations capital; "We are not fighting for segregation, but against it," says Mr. Thomas. "There are two questions of segregation which we have fought and are fighting, one against segregation of any kind, and the other against segregation of all American driveway and park, a beautiful and spacious government reservation. When the bill was first proposed in Congress we opposed the discriminatory provision, and when it passed we appealed to the White House for a veto, but the President signed it with the 'color' written into the legislation. The department of buildings and grounds, both federal institutions, and white people generally (here) immediately began a campaign to locate the white beach on the government reservation and to exclude our people from it, thus involving a second fight against segregation, a fight for our right on public property. We were so insistent that we were so insistent that we should not have the privilege of this reservation, and our people fought so vigorously for it, that Congress compromised and destroyed all beaches. We have made this same proposition to Congressman Madden, again this year, and if he champion our cause, as he did last year, we would propose, saving us from the injury of having "color" written into legislation, and from segregation of our people from government property", as President Coolidge favors.

Addresses by other speakers also will be on the program as well several reports. Records show that scores of little children are killed during their vacation on the streets. It is the desire of the traffic division of the local police department to decrease the total number of deaths, this time last year. This cannot be done except with the co-operation of everyone's parents and auto-drivers particularly children are responsible for child-deaths. Therefore, parents should keep their children off the streets as much as possible, and stress the danger to their children of running suddenly into streets where automobiles travel. Although parents do their part, they cannot do it all. Auto-drivers, too, must do their share by being careful in driving in streets where children live or play. They must also be careful in location for the kiddies with the least number of child-deaths. If parents and auto-drivers will bear their share of the responsibility by cooperating with the traffic division in safe-guarding little ones' lives. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS REALLY AN EXCEPTIONAL TRIBUTE FROM A SOUTHERN DEMOCRAT TO A NORTHERN REPUBLICAN. Senate" and "A Big Buckeye Statesman." Washington, D. C.—Col. Sam W. Small is one of the best known writers in the South, and his son is a nationally known Washington correspondent. The Colonel was a page in the U. S. Senate debate on President Johnson and the stirring days that followed. For half a century he has had a most intimate knowledge of political affairs and public men in Washington. On Sunday, May 30th, on the editorial page of the Atlanta newspaper of the South, Col. Small had the following article of interest to Ohioans, and especially so since it came from the pen of a Democrat in one of the staunchest Democratic papers in the Union: In my personal contacts with public characters in Washington during fifty years I have met many who were distinguished by individual attractions that outweighed all sectional or political prejudices. Among them none has had more of my admiration and personal affection than Senator Frank Willis, of Ohio. He is a big, hearty Buckeye who beloved Henry Grady who passed from among us in a flame of glory. Willis has the same youthful joyance in life, the same fascinating friendliness, the same humanity of heart, the same passion for patriotic service and for a harmonious and happy American solidarity. He was brought up in Ohio from home to its training. He was student and then professor in an Ohio university distinguished for its moral tone and its intellectual products. He has been a state legislator, representative in Congress, governor of his state and now one of its Senators for more than six years. That record surely imports exceptional character and finesse that command public confidence. He Works On His Job. Senator "Villis is one of those public men who actually" works on his job". In all his various offices he has shown devotion and industry that mark him as an exceptional public man for a constant principle to keep faith with the people who have trusted him. Because of that practice, he is one of the busiest men of the Senate, with a huge daily mail from "back home" PROF. THOMAS S. INBORDEN Now Principal Emeritus of Joseph K. Brick Junior College After Many Years of Faithful Service. Enfield, N. C.-Prof. Thomas S. Inborden, after thirty-one years of continued service as principal of the Joseph K. Brick Junior college, near here, assumes the position of principal emeritus. The American Missionary Association, at the June meeting of its executive committee, recognized the long and faithful service of Prof. Inborden and voted that he be given allaying of one thousand dollars per year for the rest of his life, the use of a house on the school campus and twenty-five acres of land. Prof. Inborden has had an interesting career. From Virginia, his birth place, he went to Oberlin College; thence to Fisk University. He holds a degree from Fisk. Virgin Islands Self-Rule Bill Shelved. Washington, D. C.-Action on bills granting the Virgin Islands a permanent civil government was postponed until next year when the U. S. Senate committee on territories and insular possessions decided, June 5, to send a committee of three senators and three representatives on a summer tour of inquiry thru the Islands. Six tours have already been conducted by investigation groups from Washington. Duke Gives $50,000 Durham, N. C.—A gift of $50,000 from Benj. N.

OPTIONAL TRIBUTE EMOCRAT TO A NORTH- PUBLICAN. georgia on the Senior U. S. ays He Is "A Saul in the Buckeye Statesman." and with interested constituents always pressing for a personal hearing. How he manages to keep track of all that is loaded onto him is a puzzle that I have not been able to unravel. A Favorite With Folks. Yet his social qualities are superb. He is a welcome guest at the White House, charming in the Senate cloakrooms, popular with banquets in the capital and other cities, and with his very popular wife a favorite in every social circle, and with old colored serviers cheer them at their gatherings, the newer veterans look upon him as their loyal friend, the younger pages of the Senate "just love him" they say, and old colored serviers around the senate wing will tell you "he's one ob de finest senators dat's been here in my time". Believe me, as an old observer in the capitol, no man can acquire such general admirability, a great ability, a genial spirit and that sort of human lovableness that is irresistible. A Straight-up Statesman The epithet of "statesman" is frequently applied to a man casually or ironically, but in the case of Senator Willis it applies with its true implications. He is a statesman grievously obligated to honorably and with a strong sense of equity contends for that which will strengthen the republic and do most good to most people. He is too fine of mind and big of heart to be sectional or radical. That is why a distinguished, long-service southern senator said to me: "I have seen only two faults in Willis—that he is not a southerner and a Democrat." Senator Willis is a severe student of all the problems that come into the senate. He probes for the reasons of his question, doesn't "go off half-cooked", but speaks with accurate information and understanding. The carefulness with which he handles his public functions is a big asset to his constituents and his confreres in the senate. I have personally known most of the Ohio senators from Pendleton and "Pap" Thurman to now, and I am frank to say that the Buckeye people have had in that long line no worthier son and more faithful senator. The more the least of his concerns; he just loves to be an honest, trusted servant of the people and give them the best that is in him. SENATOR WILLIS STILL BATTLING Washington, D. C., June 14, 1926. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio. Dear Friend:—Just a word to express my appreciation for the genuine publicity you gave me in the issue of The Gazette of June 12th, 1926. I do earnestly hope that we may be able to get up (in the senate) the Fish Monument bill, and believe we shall succeed. The committee has voted me down on the Virgin Island bill; that is, so far as immediate report is concerned. As it is situated in my letter to you, I felt that we had sufficient information at hand to warrant action. At all events, the Virgin Island people are entitled to American citizenship with some of the rights which are guaranteed to every American citizen in the Bill of Rights. The committee, however, urgently oppose against my judgment, decided that it would best be to have a sub-committee go to the Virgin Islands to investigate conditions at first hand. I have accordingly prepared at their direction a resolution and introduced it in the senate, providing for such a committee. While this action is not entirely satisfactory to me, it is betrayed inaction, and I am sure will ultimately lead to beneficial results. Very truly yours, Frank B. Willis. United States Senate. Washington, D. C., June 10, '26. Hon. Hercules C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Cleveland, Ohio. Dear Mr. Smith:—Thank you for your letter regarding the so-called Fish Monument bill. I am glad to have the information you send me and assure you this measure will have more formal consideration when it comes up for a vote. Sincerely yours, J. M.

One of our mothers, who recently visited a local public school attended by her four children, was insulted in the corridor of the school by a fool-exhibit made by pupils "showing a southern slave scene." That mother asked Supt. R. G. Jones of our local public schools whether the aim of the school was to teach humiliation. We do not believe the superintendent knew of the exhibit or would permit such a disgusting thing to be done in any of our local public schools. The teacher responsible for that exhibit should be disciplined immediately. Here is a job for our local Federation of Women's clubs. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.

Mr. Tweedale, who a few years ago attracted attention by reports of psychological phenomena at the Weson vicarage, said that his wife, their son and himself were at luncheon, when suddenly his wife cried out that she saw the apparition of a man with a full head of hair and beard standing at the other side of the table, to the left of their son. Mrs. Tweedale directed attention to the figure, but neither the father not his son could distinguish it. Telling his wife to keep it there, altho on reflection he admits he does not know how Mrs. Tweedale could compel the figure to remain, he got his camera which was loaded with quarter plate slides. The vicar then placed the camera on a window sill and focused it up the room, the distance between the camera and the position where his wife said she still saw the figure being about three and one half yards. The light not being favorable for an interior picture, he gave an exposure of twenty-five seconds. Mrs. Tweedale described the figure as that of a little man and said the top of his head appeared to be about on a level with her son's shoulder. Mrs. Tweedale and the boy sat at the table while the plate was being exposed. The resultant negative appears to have corroborated Mrs. Tweedale's vision. Mr. Tweedale explained that he personally developed the plate shortly afterward and it had not left his possession in the meantime. The negative is a quarter plate size and it reproduces the corner of the room. In the foreground is the dining table, the white cloth of which reflects the light into the corner. Sitting at the table is Mr. Tweedale's son, and opposite him there is a shadowy but distinct impression of the head and shoulders of a little old man, with abundant hair and flowing beard. The figure, which appears to be in a semi-incumbent position, almost hides that part of the furniture and a piano which lies behind it, and this, in Mr. Tweedale's opinion, conclusively proves that the apparatus has definite objectivity, almost invisible to the normal vision of himself and his son. In response to the suggestion that the camera may have played a trick upon him, the vicar said he had carefully examined conditions as they were at the time. The camera is in perfect order. No person of similar appearance ever had been photographed by him and none of the family recognized the figure disclosed on the negative. TWO FAITHFUL FRIENDS; HORSESOER AND NAG Animal Goes Unattended for Repairs and "Scotty" is Always Pleased to Make Them McKipley, Tex.—"Blue Whistle" the faithful old delivery horse of the Smith Drug Company of this city who has been making the rounds of the town for twenty years past, displays almost human intelligence. "Scotty" Forsythe, a blacksmith and horseshoe of McKinney, has been looking after the hoof-wear of this docile old animal ever since he was brought here, and because of their business relations quite a warm friendship has been cultivated between the map and the horse. Recently the colored boy who drives the animal had occasion to pass the blacksmith shop and informed "Scotty" that "Blue Whistle's" shoes needed to be readjusted and stated he would bring the horse around next morning to have the work done. No sooner had "Scotty" opened his shop the following day, before in walked "Blue Whistle" without bridle, harness or an attendant, and nodding his head at his host, took his place in the shoeing department. The blacksmith immediately shod him and with another nod of the head the good old animal went back home alone, where he was placed in harness for the day's deliveries. "Blue Whistle" is a fine judge of the quality of work done on his feet, and if a nail should get too close to the nerves of the hoofs he will raise and shake his head in protest until the job is done right. Also if he should lose a shoe or a shoe become loosened he will go to the shop and have it replaced without the aid of his driver. His troubles are always carefully and promptly looked after by the horse-shoer, and the ripe friendship which exists between himself and the animal is almost human.
