Editor, Gazette, City. Dear Mr. Smith: -I desire to take the opportunity to thank you most sincerely for your being to make my election possible. Rev. Jas. P. Foote, pastor of St Paul Zion A. M. E. church, and a laureate of his congregation held services in theasant M. E. church, Sunday afternoon. --- An Appreciation JACKSON ON WHAT'S DOING Mrs. Lethia C. Fleming has organized a woman's Republican club which has 103 workers, each of whom have promised to bring in ten additional members. What's going to happen to Councilmen Larry Payne and Roy Bundy when the new organization, just referred to, and the I-B-N club, largely women, with Mrs. Della Wilson Clinton as president, gets them next year? For Payne and Bundy, defeat is one of their goals. If The Rounder was either Payne or Bundy he would rather have a regiment of soldiers (men) after him than these active Republican women. The car-riders on the Superior Ave. line are to have a car every minute during rush hours, while Central Ave. car-riders, with three councilmen, "The Blossom Triplets," George Payne and Bundy, to represent their interests, have to wait, these cold days and evenings, sixteen minutes for a car. There are only three cars on the entire Central Ave. line, Twenty-four additional motormen and conductors will be added to the Superior Ave. line. The Superior Ave. car-riders have real representatives in the City Council while we have three mis-representatives there, in "The Blossom Triplets." Lord, have mercy, as the editor would say. Councilman Roy Bundy introduced a resolution at Monday night's Council meeting calling on the Council legislation committee to draft amendments to the election code designed to prevent the confusion and "dischranchisement of voters" which occurred last month (?) of voters who had registered or transferred were denied the right to vote because their registration or transfer cards could not be found. "I think one of the corrections necessary is that voters be given a card when they register or transfer so they will have some proof that they are eligible to vote." Bundy said. The Council's recommendations would be submitted to the Legislature which meets in January. The same evening, the Council received an ordinance by Councilman Lawrence Payne authorizing the purchase of 600 tons of fertilizer for gardens cultivated by unemployed persons under the direction of a special committee of the mayor's unemployment commission. Is Larry "flirting with the Democrats? Looks very much like it. The Council also received a resolution by Councilman Clayborne George requesting the city architect to prepare plans for the inclusion of a police target range in the underground exposition hall now being constructed. Wonder when anyone of "The Blossom Triplets" will find time to draw and introduce a resolution, ordinance or anything else that will give their constituents, patrons of the Central Ave, street-car line, better service! As the service is now, it is a "pain and a headache" to have to stand in the cold, anytime during the day, waiting for a Central Ave, street-car. Bundy is busy "playing to the gallery." Payne looking after things Democratic members of the council should be handling, and George worrying over the exposition construction, rather than looking after the really vital interests of their constituents of color particularly, and all in general. What a trio of misrepresentatives we have in the City Council! CHAS. W. CHESNUTT NOTED AUTHOR, DEAD! "Wife of His Youth," "House Behind the Cedars," "The Marrow of Tradition," "Three of His Most Interesting Novels. Charles Waddell Chesnut, age 74, ranked among the most celebrated authors in America and well known Afro-American, died at 5:30 p. m. Tuesday at his home, 9719 Lamont Ave. Many honors had come to Mr. Chesnut since he wrote his first story for the Atlantic Monthly in 1887. He wrote many more for that magazine. Later they were gathered together in a volume titled, "The Conjure Woman," which was published in 1900. Thirty years later the book was republished and at- Pen Is Stopped. PETER H. HARRIS CHARLES W.

This was followed by another collection of short stories, published under the title of "The Wife of His Youth and Other Stories." Then came "The House Behind the Cedars," "The Connel's Dream," "The Marrow of Tradition" and a biography of the Hon. William Connel, a prominent American. There were also contributions to Century and Harper's. Our Leading Author. Walter Hines Page, later ambassador to the Court of St. James, was literary adviser to Houghton-Mifflin, the publishers, when Mr. Chesnut submitted his first book, "The Conjure Woman." Page sat up all night to read it, so fascinating were the tales. William Dean Howells also was among the admirers of Mr. Chesnut's works and three times wrote glowing tributes to them. Only leading literary men of the country were invited to the dinner that celebrated Mark Twain's 70th birthday. Mr. Chesnut was among the guests. Spingarn medal was awarded Mr. Chesnutt. The medal award was founded in 1914 by Maj. J. E. Spingarn, then professor of comparative literature in Columbia University, to be awarded each year to an Afro-American of outstanding achievements. An Interesting Career. Charles W. Chesnutt was born in Cleveland June 20, 1858. His parents were from North Carolina. After the War of the Rebellion, when Charlie was eight years old, the family returned to North Carolina, where he PETER H. BURKE were educated in the public schools. Later, Mr. Chesnutt became principal of a state normal school in that state, which position he held for two or three years. Then he went to New York to enter journalism. He SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS LEADERS OF THE HOOVER CAMPAIGN, COLORED AND WHITE, LAMENTABLE FAILURES. The President Rendered Herculean Service With His Speeches—Defeated by "Hate and Misrepresentation." Mr. Hoover has been defeated. Not by Democrats but by Republicans. No campaign has been so ignominiously handled as was his. The men chosen to get votes for him were more interested in advertising themselves and trying to build up a personal following than in getting votes for them. Mr. Hoover did a job that few men anywhere could do. He did for the world what perhaps no ten men alive could do. He was defeated by hate and misrepresentation. His party for two months did nothing but sit idly by, hold "teas" and conferences of no value, and did nothing to reach the ordinary voter. Those in authority drove leading public figures against Mr. Hoover, and at the eleventh hour did what should have been done at first. The Negro leadership did not know what it was all about. It sought to reward its friends. It emptied Washington and the South of non-voters and sent them into the North and East to tell VOTERS how and what to do. This leadership stooped to the most foolish and divisive policies imaginable. Its abuse of men who thought differently from it, was damaging to Mr. Hoover. The little honor bestowed made them dizzy and flamboyant. Men who had experience and the confidence of those who had bested them, East and central U. S. were persona non grata. The white leadership was no better. It desired colored men who would say "yas sir" and not the upstanding man who could utter yer and with dignity. The Republican party's leadership showed itself utterly incompetent. No serious attempt was made to contact the ordinary voter that has no radio and who will not be invited to "teas" in homes. The deep-seated prejudice against Mr. Hoover held by colored voters, and in many cases justifiable, if not because of Mr. Hoover, because of his incompetent political help, was not removed nor any serious attempt made to remove it. The power of political contact, was unknown to self-confident "loyals." It was not only during the campaign such tactics were had, but all along those nearest Mr. Hoover felt it their duty and divine-right to ride roughshod over other Republicans. They had the issues of the party in their hands and they failed! Now we must have reorganization on a basis that will attract the multi-became a reporter on the Mail and Express, and later on the World. Later, he joined the reporting force of Dow, Jones & Co., gathering financial items. With his reporting came the topping of the Woolworths. It nearly 50 years since Mr. Chesnut returned to Cleveland and here he had lived ever since. He studied law in the office of the late Judge Samuel Williamson, and stood at the head of his class when given the state bar examination, at Columbus, O. Later, he served in the office of the late Virgil P. Kline, one of Cleveland's most prominent corporation lawyers and counsel for John D. Rockefeller, Sr. and the Standard Oil interests. After a short time practicing law, Mr. Chesnutt took up shoreland and became the leading court-reporter, and best reporter of public speeches for the local daily newspapers in the city. To this he devoted the remainder of his business life. At the time of his death he was senior partner in the firm, Chessnutt, court reporter, with offices at 1684 Union Trust Bldg. When Mayor Tom L. Johnson was fighting his great traction battle, Mr. Chesnutt was employed by the street railway company's attorneys. This proved very profitable. Mr. Chesnutt was married when he was 20 to Miss Susan Utley Perry of Fayetteville, N. C. He was a member of the Rowfant Club, membership of which is made up of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, the City Club and the Central Y. M. C. A.

The Republican party should have been as courageous as the Supreme Court. Because of assassine weakness and catering to southern "sily-whiteism," the Republican party would not and did not prevent southern Senators and Representatives from taking their seats in the Congress because they had allied with the Republican-seventh Amendment(s) to the U. S. Constitution. We must have some political party with guts enough in it to fight the nullifiers of these Amendment(s). The nation is not safe when both parties wink at the violation of the Constitution. Has it come to this that only the Supreme Court will protect Negroes while the parties they serve and support will wink at their destruction simply because some whites do it? In reorganizing the party its social and human side must be considered and its policies of protection, liberties and justice, be the attractions that draw men. What has the future in store for this party? Rev. Wm. A. Byrd. SPIRITUALS ENOUGH! Cut Out the "Plantation Days" Stuff in the Cleveland Inter-National Exposition.

Ramsay, which is working with those managing The Cleveland Inter-National Exposition to open, today, at public auditorium, this city, had too much self and race respect and regard for the future of the race in this community, at least, to consent to putting on "a scene typical of plantation days, with suitable singing and dancing." The less of that kind of advertising of slavery days and times, the better for us all, particularly our young folk, our men and women of the near future. CHARLES W. CHESNUTT. The death of Charles W. Chesnutt, our most noted author, is a distinct loss to the race. The a native of this city, he spent the days of his youth in the South, in North Carolina, the locale of several of his most interesting novels. As teacher, lawyer, court reporter and as a public-spirited man, thorny interested in local civic matters, especially those of special interest to our people, Charles W. Chesnutt was seen at his best. The list of his works in "Who's Who in America" begins with "The Conjure Woman," published in 1899, and includes numerous other books, largely about racial customs and problems. The widow and family—three girls, two teachers in our local high schools; and a son—have our heartfelt sympathy in their great loss. MAURICE MASCHKE, LEADER. The testimonial dinner, Tuesday evening, at Hotel Carter, tendered Mr. Maurice Maschke, leader of the local Republican organization for many years, was one of the most pleasing and satisfactory affairs of the kind ever given in the city of Cleveland. The high spot of the social function was reached when Mr. Maschke, in his exceptionally interesting and forceful talk, declared that he intended to remain the local Republican leader as long as the party workers and others wanted him. This was a solar plexus blow for the two local Democratic papers that have been striving with might and main for several years, to force his retirement from the leadership of the Republican party in this community. The editor of The Gazette attended the dinner as the guest of Atty. Alex. Bernstein, Republican leader of Ward 12, who was ably assisted by his brother-in-law, Councilman Herman Finkle. AFTER THE ELECTIONS—WHAT? The elections of Nov. 8, 1932, resulting in a veritable tidal sweep of the country for the Democratic party, headed by Franklin D. Roosevelt, did not solve the problems confronting the masses of people in the United States. The issues of the campaign were the issues of unemployment relief and unemployment insurance, the stopping of wage-cuts, the maintenance of living standards, etc. Roosevelt made many promises. He promised direct federal relief for the unemployed and for the farmers. He promised unemployment insurance. In fact, his whole campaign was a series of attacks upon the Hoover administration and a series of assertions that the Democrats in office would find a way out of the present crisis in the interests of "all of the people." Roosevelt has been elected with the biggest majority ever given any presidential candidate. In addition to control of the national government, both the upper and lower houses of the Congress, the Democrats will, after March 4, 1933, be in an overwhelming majority of the states throut the country and will be in a position to put into practice immediately their whole program, but they will not do it. Their program is contradictory. On the one hand, they promised to do nothing which would harm the rich, and on the other hand, they promised to help the poor. In practice, their promises to the masses of the common people of the country were promises designed to get votes. In addition to the foregoing and in order to gain Afro-American votes they promised thousands immediate relief from unemployment in the shape of jobs. This promise also will not be kept. Indeed, the Democratic party has never kept such promises, and yet there are always a number of our voters, especially numerous in the result of unemployment, who were thus misled into supporting the Democratic candidates. What will prove more harmful, after March 4 next, than all their many promises, is the Democratic threat to reduce the tariff and to put into practice what it terms a reciprocal tariff. This threat will put a decided damper upon the efforts of many business men throut the country to improve the unemployment situation, and will delay emancipation from the economic depression for many months—until the policies of the Roosevelt administration are known by the business men of the country. This means further delay in the recovery, for at least a year and a half, until the overwhelmingly Democratic Congress, which does not convene until next year late in the fall-time, makes clear the policies of the Roosevelt administration. It is anything but an encouraging outlook to say the least, the so-called Democratic victory of Nov. 8, 1932, affords all the people of this country. Prime Sport News The "Kid" Wins, as Usual.

The short Dayton, O., letter which immediately preceded the article in question and which announced Dawson's injury was evidence of this fact. Therefore, it is a pleasure to publish the following relevant parts of a letter received, Nov. 12, from Mr. Vince, football coach of John Carroll Uni- Dawson in Hospital. Cleveland, O. Nov. 11, '32. Harry C. Smith. Editor Gazette, City. My dear Mr. Smith:—I have just received a copy of The Gazette, dated Nov. 12. After reading same, I can't help but feel that the writer of the "Sport News" article, headed: "Should Stop Giving Into Crackers" is grossly mis-informed or unfair. The article in part, says: "And now comes our local John Carroll U., which is to play Center College of Kentucky, this week Saturday (Nov. 12), with the excuse that Dawson, its powerful Afro' fullback and star of the team, suffered injuries at Dayton, which will keep him on the bench for several days." Dawson is at St. John's hospital, this city, suffering from a head injury, the exact extent of which this time is undetermined, but there is a possible fracture of the zygomatic system causing double vision in his right eye. If you recall, a few years ago, Archie Lewis, starred in football at John Carroll and now Dawson is following in his footsteps. Trusting that you will clear up this matter in later edition of your panner, I am. Dawson Out for the Season. Ollie Dawson, John Carroll's bone-crushing fullback, is definitely thrul for the season and probably will be unable to play. This announcement was made, Sunday, by Dr. John P. Gavan, Carroll team physician, who has been attending Dawson at St. John's hospital since the star back was injured in the game with Dayton, a week ago. Dawson suffered a cerebral hemorrhage from a blow on the head and has under a physician's care ever since. Who struck the blow and why? THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.

The Ohio Supreme Court has several times upheld the constitutionality of the law and it has been very effective. Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law.

OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the 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 nor more than ninety days, or both. Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the person aggrieved thereby to be recovered in any court of competent jurisdiction in the county where such offense was committed. This law has repeatedly been held constitutional and good law by the Ohio Supreme court. The trouble is our people will not use it as often as they should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. DOINGS OF THE RACE.

Commenting on the high tribunal's decision, Mr. Baldwin said: "a plain fact of a trial in the midst of a may of 400, around the courthouse, held in check by state troops, convinced everybody except the Alabama Supreme Court that the Scottsdale boys did not have YOU KNOW ME I THINK WITHOUT DOUBT THAT YOU'RE THE BIGGEST NUMBER SKILL THAT WAS EVEN BORN - YOU HAVE THE GRAINS OF A GNAT YOU KNOW ME, AL Jack Could Do With Less I THINK WITHOUT DOUBT THAT YOU'RE THE BIGGEST NUMBER SKULL THAT WAS EVER BORN - YOU HAVENT THE GRAINS OF A GNAT SAY YOU AIN'T NO PRODIGY YOUR OWN SELF WHAT DID JA MARRY ME FOR ANYWAY?

City Amsterdam News, Nov. 9, 722 RUFUS JONES FINED $51 "Retired" Policy King Crashes a Light and Auto in Painesville—Federal Court Trial, Next Week. Rufus Jones, one of Cleveland's "Big Four" policy operators, according to the local daily press, who was lobbied by the city's Dealer, was fined $5 and costs in municipal court at Painesville, Monday, when he pleaded guilty to careless driving in connection with an automobile accident there, last week Wednesday night. Painesville police said Jones drove thru a red traffic light and crashed into an automobile driven by Miss Kiss Hough of Richmond Village, near that little city. No one hurt, but the car were badly damaged, the police said. Jones' trial in federal court will open, next week, on charges that he evaded payment of income taxes amounting to $25,744 during the years 1929 and 1930. Jones, who admitted to federal authorities that he paid $3,000 a week for "protection," is charged with having evaded payment on a net income of $176,245 during the two years. His gross income was $162,000 a year, we over $200,000 a year. If victed, Jones would face a maximum fine of $40,000 and 12 years in a federal penitentiary. THE MAY COMPANY BUNDY AND McGHEE Received at Least $800 from the Republican National Committee During the Recent Campaign. New York City.-Publication last week of a list of Negro Republicans who received pay for their services during the recent campaign, created a sensation, as most of these politicians had given the impression they were giving their services to the party. In fact, some of them boasted of their unselfish interest in the party's success. Francis E. Rivers, former Assemblyman from New York and eastern advisor to the campaign director, told a representative of The Age and several other newspaper men that he was allowed only a small expense account and that the party had no money for publicity in Negro newspapers. Roscoe C. Simmons travelled about the country telling of his love for the Crown Party for the election to the Eve Congressman Oscar DePriest denounced small politicians who demanded pay for their services in helping get out the vote. And yet, according to the statement of receipts and expenditures made by the Republican National Committee and filed in Washington, all of these "leaders" were amply paid for their services. In the statement filed as of October 29, 1932, Mr. Rivers received $3,255.36; Roscoe Simmons, $1,529.40; Charles E. Mitchell, $425; Congressman Oscar DePriest $993.69 and his son received $1,025.90. Others who received three sums included: Hamilton J. Travis, president of the Appomattox Republic Club of New York, $625; Leroy Bundy, Cleveland, $600; C. A. Franklin, publisher of the Kansas City Call, $500; for news service; W. M. Davis, publisher of the Amsterdam of New York, $500; Norman McGhee of the Cleveland (O.) Call, $200; E. W. Rhodes, publisher of the Philadelphia Tribune, $250; J. Finley Wilson, head of the Elks, $624; BenJ. Marques, Philadelphia, $200; Bishop W. J. Walls, Chicago, $100; and Mary Church the total payments to Negro workers up to October 29 amounted to about $15,000. It might be one added to this report was made one week before the campaign closed and at least $5,000 was expended by the National Committee during the last week. There were also large expenditures made by state campaign committees, working thru colored leaders. The total of expenditures made thru all these various sources would make the total amount spent by the Republican party during the campaign as much or more than was spent in 1928, and yet the district commissioners who were told to give their workers to put the ticket over are wondering if they haven't been "suckers" to work unselfishly, as they did, and without pay, when their leaders were being well paid and putting in large "expenses accounts."—N.

Student and Faculty Delegates From Northeast Ohio Colleges Gordon H. Simpson, secretary of the local N. A. A. C. P. branch, Saturday told student and faculty representatives from northeastern Ohio colleges to the Afro-American "acquaintance tour" at Central Y. that "the Afro-American is facing the greatest economic crisis in history, with a determination to come out of it in such a position, as a group, that he will be given greater consideration for his role in the political life of the country." He also said that the recent national election indicates that some of our voters have definitely broken away from their traditional adherence to the Republican party. George W. Brown, president of the local branch of the Association for the Study of Afro-American Life and History, traced the influence of Ohio on the development of our racial strength from the time when this state beckoned us on, to the state we are today and ourselves. The fourth was to include theater art and music at the Cleveland Museum of Art, talks on drama and presentation of a play by the Children's theater at the Playhouse settlement, and presentation of "Scarlet Mother Mary" by the Gilpin Players at Karama theater, Saturday night. The Truth! What would cause other people to grab their teeth and gird their loins is question of debate for us. Kick us, beat us, pile depredations upon us, revile us, abuse us, lie about us, malign us and even impugn our valor and we are not unanimously insulted.

After the sumptuousness of these fur trimmings has been duly impressed on one's mind, followers of fashion are due for another thrill in that the treatments of these fascinating fur details is as novel and daring as ingenious designers can convive. You can see for yourself, looking at the suit to the right in the illustration, that we are due for a season of conspicuous and unique fur trimmings. This afternoon costume is fashioned of one of the very new velvet woolens, an exceedingly dark brown in this instance with natural colored fox in startling contrast. As to the neckline, fur is nil, which makes it smarter. If you will study the picture closely, you will discover that the tunic-coat fastens in a most interesting manner, in that a single wide scarf end of the material throws over one shoulder with a graceful streamer effect. The stunning suit for formal wear shown to the left is a Molyneaux creation. The suit is champagne colored with luxurious sable. The hat is brown with shoes to match. There is just no telling about all the fascinating ways of fur trimmings NEW CROCHET IDEAS By CHERIE NICHOLAS ! Paris says the smart blouse to wear with your new fall suit is hand-crocheted cotton. This chic model with the high round neck is lacy and feminine. It is very simple to make. The stripes alternate white and brown, or the white may be contrasted with any dark color which tunes in to the color scheme of your costume. The smart sports hat at the top is called the pagoda beret because it is crocheted in tiers to look like a miniature chinese pagoda. It is a perfect accessory to wear with your tweed suit for fall. Mercerized cotton is likewise used for the clever sports beret, a top view of which is here given so as to show the sunburst motif which lends infinite charm to the crown. as seen on the autumn and winter suits, for their clever gestures are too numerous to enumerate. However, in this orgy of fur decoration which is fairly running riot in latest style showings, there are certain highlights which are especially significant. There is, for example, the suit which has sleeves of fur, if not all of fur, at least the top part. They are of course, of a flat type of petry, per haps astrakhan or ermine or possibly lain dyed to match or contrast the cloth. Then also, there is the costume which has a capetel, the same bordered with deep fur—and listen to this—fastening at the back instead of the front. And again there are jackets the top part of which have a sort of contraption which is half yoke and half bolero in appearance. Panther, the now-popular and particularly youthful-looking fur, works in smartly with biege jersey or tweed in this sort of an arrangement. To make it highly practical this bolerolike fur now city together with its almost-to-the elbow cuffs is detachable so as it may be worn with any costume. Very genteel-looking and adaptable to versatility. Interpretation is the fur trimming which blinds all edges with astrakhan or Persian lamb or some equally as simple and thin a type. © 1923 Western New York University. FURS OF ALL KINDS TRIM WINTER COATS Furs of all kinds trim coats. There is mink, sable-dyed kolinsky, sea beaver, nutria, krimmer and mole Foxes of all kinds including the aristocratic silver fox, black, red and cross fox as well. Suits are both tailored and dressy The former are glorious in tweeds and novelty woolens that have a Brit ish look about them and are m肌us fur The dressy suits are best when made of dull surfaced materials, luxuriously and abundantly trimmed with rich fur and always this fur is placed so that the choked look at the throat is achieved. Bright colored suits are exceedingly high fashion right now; with them are worn black or brown accessories. The choice is governed by the fur that adorns them. Three-Purpose Dress Hailed in Winter Show A new three-way costume ready for luncheon, tea or dinner was outstanding in the new style displays, climaxing the winter shows. The costumes shown were black, brown and navy sleeveless velvet frocks, with skirts eight inches from the ground, accompanied by matching short jackets and fur-trimmed three-quarter-length coats. The frock, worn with the jacket, is ready for luncheon or tea. Worn without the jacket, it is suitable for dinner. The most formal afternoon clothes seen in many years made their debut, predicting a return to the mode of tea-time elegance. Dark velvet suits, with three-quarter-length coats and lame or light crepe bodices, also were shown for afternoon wear. Paris Combines Pale Blue With Dark Colors Pale blue, combined with darken colors, is one of the color surprises sprung by the fashionable dressmaking world of Paris, in advance show- ing of styles for the coming winter. Lanvin revives a fashion of the late nineties—pale blue with beige—in both daytime dresses and evening clothes. Lucien Lelong uses pale blue for seve- ral smart evening ensembles; both Chantal and Mirande make much use of the pale blue in their afternoon clothes. One of the favorite uses of the light blues is for afternoon dresses to be darken coat. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 19, 1932. ShiningStockholm ShiningStockholm Scene on Stockholm's Quays. Prepared by National Geographic Society, STOCKHOLM is celebrating this TOCKHOLM is celebrating this year, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening of the Gota canal which connects the Swedish capital with Gateborg on the North sen, 246 miles across the kingdom. Even without its party adornment, which it has dosned for the celebration, Stockholm is a city that fairly shines. Its quays are the city's front doors, with steps always freshly scrubbed. Under brilliant summer sun, even the cargoes of many of the harbor's sailing craft, moored in front of royal palace, town hall, and house of parliament, glisten, for they are laden with countless cords of silver birch, the city's fuel. Every year, in gorgeous summer floral regalia, Stockholm stands faultlessly groomed to receive only a few score American visitors, while other continental capitals, included in customary tourist itineraries, are athrong with thousands from western shores. The average traveler does not decide casually upon a trip to Stockholm, nor, unless he comes directly from New York by ocean route, does the American always arrive in the most amiable frame of mind. It is a long hard journey from wich or southern Europe to the historic city founded seven centuries ago as a fortress to resist the forays of Baltic pirates. From Paris, for example, unless one selects the speedy and exhilarating airplane mode of travel, the major part of one day must be spent on the train to Amsterdam; thence there is an all-night journey to Hamburg, then another full day on the train to Copenhagen, and finally, by train, ferry, and train again, a second night is required to reach one's destination. Stockholm's prosperity, like that of the entire country, is founded in large measure on forests—the city's name Isle of the Log, suggests it—but there is no evidence of this in external appearances. There was a time when the metropolis was built of wood, and it required six disastrous conflagrations, recurring over a period of two and a half centuries, to convince its citizens that their safest insurance against flames lay beneath their feet. City Built of and on Granite. Stockholm today is built of granite upon granite foundations. A land owner blasts his building material from the site of his proposed structure, and by the same operation makes his cellar. The result is a city of somber, unadorned gray-stone apartments and business buildings, conveying the impression of having been erected for eternity. Architecturally one enters a new world on reaching Stockholm. No slightest suggestion is to be found of that classical Greek influence so conspicuous in most of the capitals and chief cities of southern, central and western Europe. For twelve years Stockholm labored on its town hall. It was finished, as planned, for formal dedication in 1923, the four hundredth anniversary of the beginning of the reign of Gustavus Vasa, Sweden's first hereditary ruler. The hall, in contrast to the customary granite, is built of exceptionally large red bricks. Its interior is as impressive as its exterior. On one side of a great inner court is the famous blue room, rising from the ground to the full height of the building. This is used for official banquets and similar civic affairs. Here, each year on a Sunday in August, a picturequeen is staged, when awards are made to Stockholm's great army of workmen farmers, one of the most interesting groups to be found in Europe. The Swedes are noted for their love of the soil and all that it produces, and this passion for growing things cannot be stifled by the circumstance of metropolitan existence; so the city has set aside countless acres of suburban territory for conversion into garden plots, and these are rented to workmen for the equivalent of $5 for a summer season. Here the laborer builds a tiny cottage—one room and porch, usually. He can buy a complete house ready made for $100 and set it up like a jig-saw puzzle. All summer he and his wife and children live on their "little farm." He continues his work in shipyard or factory, but early in the morning, before he goes to his job in the city, and when he returns in the afternoon, he joins his wife in boeing the vegetables, training the roses over the doorway, cultivation. the dahlias, pansies, violets, and sweet peas. Garden Prizes Awarded. Toward the end of the summer the housewife is kept busy canning and preserving the produce of her dollhouse garden, while the husband concentrates his efforts upon the flowers. On the appointed Sunday in August each family takes its prize products—blossoms, fresh and canned vegetables, and fruit—to the blue room. Here the women, arrayed in the peasant attire of their native provinces, display the results of their summer recreation and diversion. These workingman gardens were introduced during the pinching years of the World war, when Sweden was more or less isolated and when all food products commanded fabulous prices. Although the emergency no longer exists, the gardens are continued, not only because they are financially successful—the vegetables raised each year are valued at more than half a million dollars—but because they have promoted the health and happiness of the working classes and have contributed materially to the attractiveness of the capital's environs. "The little farms" are a special boon to the children of the working classes, who must store up energy for those long, dark hours of fall, winter, and spring schooling. Judged by American standards, the lot of the school boy or girl in Stockholm is one of the most unenviable in the whole world of education. School life begins at the age of six. The hours are trying and training, like every other week day. In winter, of course, the pupil must get up and dress by artificial light, and he starts for school while the street lamps are still burning. He begins his day's task at 7:45; at 10:35 he goes home for breakfast, returns to the classroom at noon, and is disdised at 2:35 or 3:30 according to his age. In mid-winter it is dark at the later hour. After the first snowfall, children live in the school. In Sichuan he makes their war to school on a daily basis. Fond of Study and Sports. Under such circumstances, it is natural that the children of Stockholm should take their studies somewhat more seriously than children in American cities; yet, who the summer vacation season arrives, no youngsters in the world enter upon their outdoor frolics with greater joy. The children of the wealthier classes accompany their parents to summer homes outside the city, many of them situated on the countless islands which dot Sweden's Baltic shore line; yet even here they pursue their studies in natural history with the best of a sport. One of the distinguishing characteristics of the Stockholm youth is his fondness for sports, with a special predilection for that most graceful of all exhibitions of skill, javelin throwing. Association ball (played with a round football), in which the head is used very largely as the propulsive force, is the national sport of the country, while bicycle endurance races, skating and skating, and boating in summer are also extremely popular. Social Life When the long days begin to grow short, when the well to do middle class and the aristocracy return from their country estates, when the autumn rains set in, and the autumn begins to twinkle in apartments where the very wealthy afford to live in private homes in Stockholm, the social life of the city awakens from its summer sleep. Then comes a long succession of dinners, musicles, theater parties, open parties, and supporters. At least one feature of this Stockholm social life would meet with the hearty approval of the average American man of affairs; there is no such obligation as a dinner call. Sweedes do not visit informally, nor would it ever occur to a Stockholm woman to telephone a friend and say that she expected to call. One goes to a friend's home only when he or she has been especially invited; but, having accepted such an invitation, he obligates himself to reciprocal entertainment. Thus the—to many—weary winter rounds begins. The most distinctive feature of a Swedish repast is the smorgasbord (sandwich table), variously described as a "super-super hors d'oeuvres" a concentrated delicatessen store and a general assault on all the rules of diet. To count calories while feasting at a smorgasbord would require the services of an expert accountant equipped with several adding machines.
