Jacques of Prescott, Pierce County, Wis., one of the best known seed corn growers in the Northwest, reports a 75-bu. per acre yield of sound seed corn this year in spite of a dry season. His use of a special fertilizer for corn manufactured by The American Agricultural Chemical Company brought him a crop figure in larger than measured in his sec- tion and measured an early and a full maturity for seed. "In this area where growing seasons are short, early maturity as well as high yields are necessary for profitable production," says Mr. Jacques. ```markdown ``` --- ```markdown ``` THE UNION IS FOR HOME Demand this package Bayer Tablets or Aspirin Genuine Headaches Neuralgia Rheumatism Lumbago Neuritis Toothache THE GAZETTE ESTABLISHED, AUGUST 25, 1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since CLEVELAND, OHIO, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1932.

The ROUNDER ON WHAT'S DOING Josecelyn Horridge, age 40, of 2758 Euclid Heights Blds., was finned $580 and costs by Criminal Judge Baen after he pleaded guilty to a charge of felonious assault on a 10-year-old girl.—The Cleveland News. Would Horridge have gotten off here he had been an "Afro?" Forty years old and as saulting a ten-year-old girl! Well well, WELL! Common Pleas Judge-Elect Arthur H. Day owes his success, in local politics, more to the mass-support of our voters than to that of any other group in the county and according to custom should appoint one of our number bailiff; pay $2800 a year. This rule is the one that has been followed by nearly all of the other judges of the various city and county courts. Wonder who will get the prize. Here is an item for the local branch of the Association for The Study of Afro-American Life and History: Between thirty and forty years ago, Lloyd Bowman, a brother-in-law of Wm. McIntire, of this city, was a clerk in Marshall's drug store, corner of the public square and W. Superior Ave., and E. R. Hull and Co., which was purchased by the May Co., at the request of the editor of The Gazette offered a clerkship to Walt H. Cliff the Pullman service en route west and afterward a member of the Ohio legislature from this county. Mr. Cliffd died in Washington, D. C. a year or two ago. Last Monday week when The Rounder was passing thru the Old Arcade, going from Prospect Ave. to Euclid Ave., ahead of him were several so-called Negro Democrats, all smiling and apparently in the best of moods in the city to City Hall. They seemed to have stopped smiling later that morning. What is the trouble? It is only the beginning of a repetition of the experience they had after the election earlier in the year when they attempted in vain to get the Democrats to keep the promises made them. "Elimination of the blighted areas will not cost the taxpayers a cent," counselman Ernest Bohn said, referring this is a private venture intended to be financed by private capital." Well, WELL! Just as The Rounder that from the very first. They have purposely greatly undervalued the property in the Central Ave, district and want and expect to "clean up" aplenty there. However, the property owners in that section of the city will see about that! Bohn also said Cleveland should take steps as soon as possible to obtain its desired backing from the Reconstruction Finance Corp., for only $75,000,000 is available and New York City intends to ask for $50,000,000.

Jones, age 76, of the A. M. E. Church, father of Prof. Gilbert H. Jones, for some years, until recent months, president of the school, died here, Thanksgiving. The deceased was born in Lexington county, South Carolina, June 15, 1856. He took work at Howard University, Washington, D. C., and Wilberforce University, his graduation from Clark University, st. Louis. He pastored various charges in the A. M. E. Church and also served as a member of the faculty of Wilberforce University, to the presidency of when he was elected in 1909. He held that post until 1908 when he was elected to the episcopacy of the Church. His first assignment was as a pastor in district in Tennessee and Alabama, which he served until 1912. He then was transferred to the 10th district, comprising all of Texas. He remained there until he was appointed to succeed Bishop C. T. Shaffer (deceased) of the 3rd district, comprising Ohio, West Virginia and western Pennsylvania. He rebuilt Shaffer hall at a cost $200,000 and was destroyed by fire. It is one of our largest school buildings. The financing of this project was one of the major accomplishments of the bishop's career. He remained as head of the 3rd district until 1928 when he was transferred to the First district, comprising New York and the New England Conference. He was temporarily retired at the Cleveland, last May. He widow, three sons and a daughter survive the deceased. Bishop Joshua H. H. Jones' funeral services, Tuesday afternoon, in Jones' auditorium of Shorter hall, were largely attended, about 2,000 people coming from Xenia and various parts of the country. The opening remarks were made by the Opening Traffic Columbus state auditor. Many distinguished members of the A. M. E. Church were here. Prof. John R. Hawkins of Washington, D. C., financial secretary of the Church, in charge of letters, telegraphs and resolutions, was literally swamped with them. Bishops Johnson, Green, Grant, Williams and W. S. Brooks were unable to attend; also Bishop E. T. Demby of the Lille Rock, Ark, department of Presbyterian Church; also Bishop Reverdy C. Ransom, of this the third Episcopal district, presided over the funeral services in which Bishops W. H. Heard of N. Y. City, W. H. Davis of Baltimore, John A. Gregg of Kansas City, Kan., representing the bishops of the Church, and other distinguished prelates of the Church participated. A cabile of Francis Goe president of Wilberforce Town, Town, S. Africa, was received. Several short talks were made. W. A. Anderson read the obituary. The main address, however, was given by Dr. R. R. Wright, Jr., president of the University. The Masonic ceremony followed, being conducted by Wilberforce lodge of Xenia. There were eight active pallbearers and 32 other attendees. The Tarbox Cemetery near Cederville. Dr. Jas. E. Owen of Cleveland, was elected president of the board of trustees, of the Combined Normal & Industrial (State) Department of Wilberforce University, at its meeting, Tuesday morning. He has been a member of the board for about a year, being appointed by Gov. Geo. White to fill the unexpired term of Rev. Russell S. Brown of Cleveland who resigned. Pres. R. R. Wright, Jr., of the University was elected vice-president and Rev. J. O. Hathcott of Cleveland re-elected secretary of the board. G. L. Harrison of Cincinnati, appointed a member by the governor, several weeks ago, was in attendance upon the meeting. Other presidents were Jennie D. Porter of Cincinnati, Rev. D. O. Walker and Dwight R. Williams of Cleveland, and W. A. Anderson of Wilberforce. The State Department's budget, prepared by Supt. Howard Gregg and Business Mgr. C. C. Jenkins, was approved after a few minor changes. Gets $9,000 Bequest Phoenix, Ariz.—George Layman, age 80, retired soldier and Spanish-American war veteran, received $9,000 recently from the estate of his nephew, a resident of Lawrence, Kan. Mrs. Layman, who was living apart from Mr. Layman at this time, returned to her husband. Four Shot to Death! Boley, Okla.—Three gunmen, two white, and President D. J. Turner of the Farmers and Merchants State bank, were shot down by H. C.

Killed Red Man; Enslaved Black "We robbed the red man and killed him," Father Gillis went on. "But we kidnapped the black man and enslaved him. The traders in human flesh and blood who sailed from New England and elsewhere to Africa, swooped down upon the blanks, bledchered thousands of them, brought them ash and sold them in bondage, we're guilty of as great a sin as that of Oliver Cromwell who slaughtered thousands of the Irish and sold the remainder into slavery in the Barbadoes. They were a 'godly' generation of church-goers, Bible readers and psalm singers, but they brought down a blight upon this country and a curse upon their own souls. And if the curse of God, as the Bible seems to say, can pass to the third and fourth generation, bainst them and of that sin that mist the black man is still upon the soul of the white man. It is for us to wash it away with the baptism of humiliation and with works of penance." Unscientific. Snobbish. Father Gillis declared that the inclination of many whites to think of the Colored as " a subject race, less than wholly human, a footstool for the white man, a lesser breed without the law, a pariah, an 'untouchable, segregated, disfranchised, an alien in the land of his birth," is "not scientific but snobblish," because, he asserted, white and black " are brothers, equally courageous in a collateral line of descendants, but brothers, children of the one original couple." "We may talk of the black race, the brown race, the yellow race, and the red race and the white race," he said, "but there is only one race, the human race." "Now therefore," Father Gillis continued, "if the Negro is a man just as truly as the white man, it follows that the white or presupposes belong to man as man, must not be denied to the Negro. Miserable Treatment. "And yet in certain parts of our country disabilities are heaped upon him because he is a Negro. In many localities he is denied the vote, even though that denial involves fraud or force upon the part of the white man. In some sections he receives lower wages than the white man for the same work. In other sections, he is charged higher rent than the white man for the same housing. His natives tend to rise to something better than menial occupation and to fit himself for it is frustrated by local law, by custom or even by physical violence; he is refused admittance to certain trade unions; in many states he is denied membership in white churches; he dare not attempt to take Communion with the whites; likewise except in the north. he cannot attend schools, public or private, with the whites, and the public schools into which he is segregated are inferior in architecture, in location and in scholastic standing to those who are black man pays his school tax like a man. He is kept out of select hotels, restaurants and places of public entertainment, not only in the south but in the north. A Hell in the South. "Where the jim-crow' law is in effect, he is taxed for parks, libraries and other places of instruction or entertainment which he is not permitted to use. In some localities there are different standards of justice in the law courts for blacks and for whites (a crime in the very place where crime is supposedly punished), thousands cities and towns and villages, and fellows away from white neighborhoods as strictly as if he were a leper. If he ventures to buy or to rent a house in a 'white' district, his home may be bombed, and he will be granted no legal redress. He is subject to mob violence, denied trial by jury and if suspected of certain crimes, he may be forced to suffer folk suffer molestation, but, if in a fit of mad resentment, he retaliates.

He must suffer incessantly and cruelly from them, and if he were to rise in rebellion for even so much justice as is guaranteed to him by the Federal Constitution, he would be shot down like a dog, and I fear that vast number of 'liberty-loving Americans' would say that it served him right; that he would be thankful for it; that he should know his place and be content with it. "Now, fellow citizens of the white race, let us confess that all this is manifestly and outrageously wrong. We are treating the Negro as unjustly, if not with quite so much bloody cruelty, as we treated the Indian. Whatever we are doing now to atone for our crimes against the red man from whom we stole the continent, from whom we are being atone for the crimes, we are not against the black man. We have not even ceased to deal unmercifully with him. "... If we persist in the outrage our ancestors have done the black man, or the lesser crimes that we ourselves have committed against him, let us understand that we are storing up danger for our descendants.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1992. A headline to a letter sent out from Washington, D. C., by the Asso- ciated Negro Press, reads: “Demo- cratic workers have high hopes,” hav- ing reference to “Negro” Democratic workers. They always do and just as often fail to have their hopes, whether high or low, materialize. ie Even tho Bishop Joshua H. Jones was critically ill, several years ago and has not been well since, his death, Thanksgiving Day, was some- what of a surprise. He was able, en- ergetic and-for many years a leader in the great A. M. E. Church. Bishop Jones had an exceptionally interest- ing career. elle ‘A writer in a local contemporary says: “The Negro Democratic work- er is coming into his own.” “His own” what? That's rich when one re- calls how he realized on the prom- ises Democrats made him earlier in the year and broke in nearly every instance. For superlative exhibitions of gullibility refer all to “Negro” Democrats. It is so easy to play up- on their credulity. President Hoover's invitation to President-elect Roosevelt to confer with him on the war debts and other governmental problems was accept- ed by the latter but not taken ad- vantage of. He listened and talked very little, making no commitments of any kind. As a matter of fact he refused to confer. The statement that congressional Democrats have unanimously decided that there is to be “no cancellation, revision or fur- ther moratorium of the war debts” is sure good news that Roosevelt's visit to the nation’s capitol brot out, Tues- day. Sa ‘The address of Rev. James M. Gillis, editor of the Catholic World, publish- ed elsewhere in this paper, is one of the most remarkable statements of fact and truth, coming from a mem- Ber of his group, we have heard or yead in many years. It is most time- ly and proves beyond all question or doubt that Editor Gillis is most courageous and a remarkable man. ‘Only such a person, even a member ‘of the clergy (white), would dare talk as Father Gillis did over the ra- dio during “Catholic Hour,” Nov. 20, 1932. Our people thruout the coun- try can not fail to thoroly appreciate and thank him for it. SCOTTSBORO BOY-VICTIMS. There is no questioning the good work that the International Labor Defense has done for the nine Scotts- oro, Ala., boy-victims still under ‘sentence of death tho the U. S. su- preme court has granted seven or eight of them a new trial as the re- sult of sustained court action spon- sored by the I. L. D. which has been assisted financially by our people in various parts of the country. This organization has issued a strong ap- peal for immediate financial assist- ance in its effort to free the boys, victims of a malicious and contempti- ble frame-up, and our people ought to respond just as liberally as pos- eible for reasons obvious. Too much praise can not be given the Interna- tional Labor Defense for the assist- ‘ance it has rendered our people thruout the country thra its support of the effort to save the lives of those boys and if possible secure them their freedom. And the best way to show this is by supporting as liberally ‘as possible in these economic depres- sion days the exceptionally successful ‘effort, thus far, the organization has made. So send to the International Labor Defense, Room 430, 80 E. 13th ‘St. New York City, as much as you can immediately toward the $25,000 Seottsboro, Ala., boy-victims’ fund it needs sorely, is endeavoring to rails and should have. WOULD BE A RIOT! Puan ern neers | During the recent campaign for ‘the Presidency of this nation, a statement was made to the effect that if Mr. Roosevelt did not win there would be a riot. That significant statement is followed by a very nau- seating revelation in the City of New- ark, N. J., which is ruled over by three Democratic commissioners and two Republicans. It appears that the third ward of the city of Newark is a very strongly Republican ward, but in the last election it gave over- whelming Democratic majorities, so much so till an investigation was proposed by the Republican authori- ties. When the news of this got abroad, the thugs that perpetrated the election steal went immediately to the place where tho ballot boxes were stored and took away the third ward boxes in question and then went to the hall of records and deleted the Pages from the records that bore on chis crime. In the meantime, police- men were stationed at both places to puahnth Ghd Menke Gtk Ge tot kat Fo EE pe Farxs a es Ss Film ek RS Cae ee PPE SS eae eae poe oo! ere Se eS ee eae a ae ae a ees ae Be eS no tampering was done. In the face of the officers, this outrage was per- petrated. Curious enough this ward is the stronghold of Negroes. The thugs on election day supplied spurl- ous ballots and had them voted-and counted. At present the machinery of the state is in action secking to ferret out this infamous crime and punish those responsible. Some very pertinent inquiries are in order. Was this Newark outrage a part of the ischeme to elect Mr. Roosevelt? If so, how far-reaching was this bold at- tempt to steal a Presidential elec- tion? Was this method used in other strong Republican wards, coun- ties, and states to produce the re- sults of this election? If this meth- ‘od had failed did those sponsoring it intend to start a riot? If so, how did this thing get noised abroad? President Hoover in one of his speeches made reference to this riot threat. The people of this nation desire to know if the managers of Mr. Roosevelt's campaign know of any conspiracy to do in the general election what was done in Newark? Isn’t it reasonable to conelude that ~angsters would not attempt to steal the election in the third ward in New- ark, if those in authority had not so indicated? This brazen steal in New- ark with its subsequent stealing of the books to cover their tracks indi- cates that this was no one sporadic cffort but that it was a well laid plan to do what was done. There could have been no crooked work at any poll if either party had stood up squarely for clean voting. Republi- cans joined hands with Democrats to violate the sanctity of the election. Is the country to believe that in strong Republican states that’ went Democratic, this method was used? If the Republican party entered into any such agreement to defeat Mr. Hoover, the usefulness of that party is ended. If the Democratic party won this election by such methods knowingly, God pity th's nation. Murder will out. Newark has given an indication of festering rot- tenness on election day that should be cleaned up. If necessary inquiry should be made in each state to find out if the returns are accurate and just. America is doomed if it adopts the southern method of _ballot-box corruption to rule its elections. This method of tampering with ballot- boxes is not new to a certain section of this country that is strongly Dem- peratie. Suspicion has been placed upon the election of Congress and the President. We wonder if this was the method adopted to prevent a riot? (Rev.) William A. Byrd. 18 IT ANY USE TO OON- TEND FOR RIGHTS? Colored Americans are the only race, responsible mem- bere of which are in favor of submitting to discrimination on the claim tha: their race “always will be discriminated against.” The Jews are still contending, after over 1900 years of universal discrimina- on, and are winning even social rights today. The Irish at home have contended for 700 years and are winning because they will die rather than eubmit. The race that says It's cf no use to resist, downs itself and the world then will say, “Negroes are not wortny of equal rights; they are by nature without self-respect. and have no “guts’.” The world respects only those who resent and re- sist proscriptions for race. Let us be worthy of the abolitionists, worthy of our own fathers who have died in every war to vindicate the title of their race to equal Uberty, and forever resist de- nial of rights In our native land, however long race dis- crimination may continue, To submit 's to deserve _con- tempt.—Boston (Mass.)

OUR OH10 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 edi- tor 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, rostaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public. conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommoda- tion and amusement, denies to a citi- zen, 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 bo fined not less than fitty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days nor more than ninety days, or doth, Sec. 12941. Whoever violates the next preceding section shall also pay not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars to the per- son aggrieved thereby to be recov- ered in any court of competent juris- diction 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 aon: HUMAN NATURE'S VOULEST BLOT.” My ear Is pained, My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong aud outrage, with which the earth is Siled There is no flesh in man’s ob: durate heart. 1t does not tee! for man; the natural bond Of brotherhood Is severed at the Max That falls asunder at the touch of fire.

"I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends."—Charles Sumner.

A B C D E L CONFIRMS NINETEEN Afro-American Converts in a Class of 208 — Bishop McFadden Gratified — An Unusual Scene. Akron, O.—In a class of 208 converts at St. Bernard's Catholic church here, Sunday evening week, were 19 Afro-Americans. It was a most unusual sight. The Most Rev. Jas. A. McFadden, auxiliary bishop of Cleveland, confirmed the class. Rev. Jas. A. Lembach, assistant pastor of the church, is given credit for preparing this class of converts, and Mrs. Beneva Kilgore, a member of our group, gets the honor of bringing them together for instructions. She is engaged in social miss on work here. Bishop McFadden expressed his gratification over the class' inclusion of our 19 converts in the following words: "I am most happy to see them here tonight, and I appreciate the work being done in this parish to plant the seed of true religion and to encourage its growth among the Colored people. The Church acknowledges no distinction in race." Mrs. Kilgore has two children in St. Bernard's school and has enrolled 60 of our children in a summer school at St. Bernard's which is under the direction of Father Lembach and three seminarians, Bernard Stalder and Herman Klocker of St. Mary's, Cleveland; and Billy Bachman of the American college, Rome, Italy. St. Bernard's parishioners are ministered to by the dean, the Rt. Rev. Mgr. Ferdinand A. Schreiber, V. F., and his two assistants, Father Lembach and Rev. Harold Laubacker. The church is one of the most beautiful edifices in the diocese and is surrounded by one city block of parish property. AN OPPORTUNITY!

Prepared by National Geographic Society, and supported by the National Geographic Society. ZECHWAN province, China, center of recent disturbances, is one of the richest, most populous and picturesque regions of China. Marco Polo described it as a cultivated garden with great cities. A more modern sobriquet is "The Garden of Asia." Chungking, the Yangtze port, is a great doorway of Szechwan. It is a walled city with 600,000 inhabitants, situated at the confluence of the Yangtze and the Kialling rivers. Through the fiction of a foreign treaty it is an open seaport notwithstanding the fact that it is 1,500 miles from the coast and 1,000 feet above the level of the sea. It is now the head of steam navigation on the Yangtze, the seat of maritime customs for the West, the point of distribution for all western-borne commerce and the assembling depot for all shipments to other parts of China and foreign lands. The chief exports to America and other countries are paint oils of the tung-tree, medicines, bristles, feathers and hides, and, of manufactured articles, silks, satins and crepes of the finest grades. Confined between its two rivers, this city, like New York, is growing into the air. It has no suburban lines to relieve its surplus population, and real estate has accordingly increased in the past decade from 100 to 200 per cent in value, making it profitable to erect fine foreign buildings, in which it excels any purely native city in China. The English, French, German, Japanese, and Americans compete for its trade. United States trade is represented in kerosene, sewing machines, cigarettes, patent medicines, hardware, and nails. From Chungking northwestward 300 miles to Chengtu, the capital, one travels by sedan chair, borne on the shoulders of two, three or four bearers, as one's avoiduplos requires or his Troy weight permits; for the rich ride in fours by choice, as do the portly without onion. In addition to the chair-bearers, the foreign traveler requires a coolie to bear his cot and bedding, another to carry his food, and an attendant to cook it. A small party easily becomes a regiment, and if an armed escort accompanies it, as is usual, the party resembles an army. City of the Dead. Beyond the walls of Chungking the traveler enters the city of the dead. Here are square-built tombs of the Ming period; near by are the crowded lines of public graves for beggars and the very poor; and then, far away to the top of the hill, about four miles distant, are the regulation mounds of Chinese graves, with here and there beautifully carved, terraced mausoleums. A more orderly section of broad extent, reserved for Mohammed graves, shows that the followers of the Crescent are no mean or inconsiderable company among the city's population. Over these sleeping camps the telegraph lines are now strung and the Chengtu railway will tunnel beneath them. Factories and homes are pushing them farther from the city, which is a sure indication that the hand of superstition is losing its grip, for a quarter century ago this would have spelled riot. The Szechwanese from of old have been expert workers in stone, as is evidenced by the many tombs, homes and places of defense carved deep into the rocky cliffs along the rivers. Their Chinese conquerors have inherited this art along with their land, for the country abounds with artistically carved stone bridges, and memorial arches of massive proportions ornately wrought in stone. One never sees a monument dedicated to a warrior, but many to virtuous widows, who refused to remarry after their husbands had died. Others reared by royal permit have the four characters Wu Kla Tung Tang, five generations living together in one home. This, though not common, is by no means unknown in West China, and surely, if five generations can live to together in one home and live peaceably, they deserve recognition, and the Chinese accord it. City of the Dead. West China might be called "The Land of the Pagoda," for nearly every city has its towering sentinel from three to fifteen stories in height. They are generally placed upon some eminence overlooking the city they protect, and may have served as watch towers in times of trouble, but the real purpose of their erection most likely was to exert a benign influence upon the fungus—the spirits of wind and wave that bring prosperity and ward off disaster. Out from the crush and the hum of the city of the living and past the quiet camp of the dead, one comes to the country—not, however, the country of the western world; rather a mass of terraced paddy fields and farm gardens, with human beings always in sight. People are the only feature of the landscape that cannot be left behind or ignored; so one stops to glance at the inhabitants of Szechwan, who surpass in rugged diversity of race the variety of the province's scenery. The People of Szechwan. Fourth, the contact of Christian life and thought upon these peoples, a period of reforms and revolutions, a transition from the old order to the New China of today and the China of promise of tomorrow. Remnants of Many Races. The western part of Szechwan might well be called the Museum of the Human Races, the as-yet-underserved happy hunting ground of the ethnologist and physiognomist. Here are to be found the surviving remnants in the most heroic struggle for existence that humanity has ever waged and who, for lack of a better term, are called the "Tribesmen." As one crosses the Min river, which flowing south divides the province into east and west, and moves westward, towards the snow-covered mountains, he comes upon the shambling homes of these people, hidden in impassable ravines or perched upon cliff or mountain side, of which they seem to be part and counterpart; for as the irresistible side-thrust of continental Asia pushed these mountain masses high into the snows and left them crumpled, broken, and isolated storm-swept peaks, so, evidently, a similar convulsion of powerful peoples of Asia, in their movements toward this center, have driven back the weaker or defenseless nations, they in their turn being compelled to follow into these inaccessible places, where, like the mountains to which they still cling, they may yet reveal stratum, the bedrock of the race. The Chinese call them "The Eighteen Nations," but it is believed that there are several times eighteen nations or tribes, each under its own king, council, or feudal lord, independent or semi-independent of each other and of the Chinese in whose borders they dwell. Among the tribesmen are found representatives of the black, yellow, and white branches of the human family, and some of them, especially the dwarf peoples, are believed to be of very ancient origin. Chengtu, Szechwan's capital, lies 700 miles from a railroad on the edge of the famous Chengtu plain. It is a city of 600,000 inhabitants. THE GAZETTE CLEVELAND O SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1932. By CHERIE NICHOLAS NUR fashions are holding the center FUR fashions are holding the center of the stage. The program they are presenting it not only spectacular, but it is interesting because it makes use of novel petrery in novel ways. The fact that designers are showing so venturesome a spirit to do and to dare makes fur artistry almost breathtaking this season in its exploitation of the unusual. This fair for clever fur arrangements is evidenced in the models pictured. The very good-looking costume to the left emphasizes the entry of panther skin in the list of fashionable new furs. The younger set adore this flattering fur. The rich green of the cloth which fashions this coast contrasts the tawny tones in the fur most effectively. Speaking of spotted furs, an outstanding play is being made in this direction, smart Parisiennes wearing not only dresses and coats trimmed in either panther, leopard or ocelot, but touches directly enliven their hats as well as being made up in such accessories as belts and pocketbooks. A leading contourer goes so far as to create a stunning evening gown of white satin bordering the decollete neckline with a band of leopard. In trimming the black wool coat shown to the right in the picture the designer does that is being repeatedly done this season—works two kinds of fur together. In this instance black astrakan and snowy ermine IF YOU CROCHET By CHERIE NICHOLAS Victorian charm is the keynote of this winter's fashion. One of the ideas which prevailed in those days of yore was that of "crochet edgings." Well, it's crochet edging which trims this dainty little bedjacket. All you need is a ball (150 yards) of mercerized cotton, a number eight crochet hook and three-fourths of a yard of flat crepe, for it is made of two pieces of silk tacked together at the shoulders and sides. Cut the silk in two straight pieces (19% by 27 inches) with the selvedges running the long way. These can be used at the bottom and so avoid hems. On the other three edges of both pieces base hems as narrow as possible. The first row of crochet will hold them in place. Crochet directions are available at most any fancywork department where you buy the crochet cotton. The quaint little clerical bib is also crocheted of mercerized cotton, in an open mesh pattern with tightly crocheted border. It is simply and quickly made, and now that young girls are wearing nun-colars and similar neckpieces a collar crocheted as here illustrated will add chic to the silk or wool costume. make a striking combination, thus accenting the black-and-white theme which is as popular as it ever was, and perhaps even more so. The casual grace of the ermine scarf-end intrigues the eye at a glance. The high-standing astrakan collar is topped with a junty beret which has a drape of matching fur encircling its crown. The placing of myriads of little cloth ruffles row and row from above the elbow to the wristline is characteristic of the trend to make sleeves an outstanding feature of every costume. Incidentally we might mention that the dress underneath this modish coat is made of printed satin, the same being a fashion highspot in the realm of fabrics this season. In describing the charming muff and capetel set which centers this attractive trio there is not much needed to be said as it speaks volumes for itself in the way of chic. You may vision it as of gray curly lamb of highest grade, if you wish, contrasting velvet brown cloth for brown with a featured combination. Metal buttons, a cone, and a metal belt, for metal accessories are fashion's boast at present. © 1812 Western Newspaper Union. CORDED WEAVING LEADS IN FAVOR There is a distinct corduroy influence in the winter's fashions, Wool, silk, velvet and mixtures all show a tendency to corded weaving. It is not confined only to clothes for sports wear, as formerly, but appears in clothes of all varieties. Many of the newest evening dresses are of a corded velvet which approaches corduroy in weave, but is sheer in texture. Corded woolens, launched in Paris last season, are already established as classic materials. They are favorites for the sturdy type of coat or suit which is destined for wear in difficult weather. Dressmakers like the possibilities they offer in design, for a slight change in the direction of the cords, by means of adroit cutting, can work a whole design into a costume without the addition of any ornament. Change Hairdressing to Follow Dress Style Changes in dress styles, and especially those that have taken place this season, demand a decided change in hairdressing. An inferiority complex of the worst sort is lying in wait for the woman who attempts to wear those charming shallow-crowned hats that leave almost the entire back of the head bare, unless she speeds with winged feet to an authority on hairdressing, one well-schooled and of long experience in making the hair conform to fashion and beauty. To enhance the charm of a woman's hair and face, and to blend them with her clothes into a picture of beauty, requires unusual talent—a sculptor's knowledge of plastic form and a painter's feeling for delicate colors. Waffle Weave Is Latest For Street and Sports In street and sports dresses the material is the new thing. Silk crepes again resemble rough woolens. This season one new material is known as "triple sheer," being three times the thickness of georgette crepe. The waffle weave, modeled after that well-known breakfast dish, is new and smart. Light and Dark Strong contrasts of light and dark are inevitably effective—light collars on dark dresses, dark collars on light dresses; dark jackets with white skirts; white coats with dark dresses Makes Basement His Sales Office Novel Idea of Connecticut Man in Bringing Prospects to His Home Results in Many Orders Salesman has novel method. Albert Weed of Norwalk, Conn., salesman for the Petroleum Heat and Power Company, makers of Petro & Nokol oil burners, has dressed his basement up into a salesroom, as shown above, where he brings prospects who can see exactly how his oil burner is working in his house. That the idea has proven a good one is evidenced by the fact that Mr. Weed has developed into one of the leading salesmen of the company. It also emphasizes to the prospect the cleanliness of oil heat and stimulates the urge to convert basements into recreation rooms. Salesman has novel method.

This year with so much interest centered on materials themselves—quite in addition to frock and aut line—it seems natural to pay out discreetly by shadowed should appear. The ones we seen in dresses suitable for college girls and debutantes have lived up very satisfactorily to "divine, my dear" compliments these young women have been paying them. The frock shown in our sketch has some of a shadowed, ombre effect, which has been achieved by combining durene cotton and osseous fabric. This bit of worried in a feather weight, but decidedly autumn-like dress. This dress in the sketch will appeal particularly to ladies who have passed their twenty-second birthday but not their seventieth. Notice the smart saddle sleeve, giving inward flare. It is placed at a high but becoming line and skirt stitching gives nice balance for the tallish figure.

Coffee Drinking Is Aid to Business; Rector Tells of Brazilian Customs Bv GEORGE RECTOR. World Famous Restaurant IN BRAZIL, where much o, the finest coffee is grown, the coffee shan is a national institution, and coffee drinking is almost a rite. Much business is transacted in the coffee shops. As the English serve tea to break up the business day, so the Brazilians use coffee. When an important deal is pending, the primaries often desert the office for the nearest coffee shan and discuss matters more socially, and often more effectively, over a demitasse. In the United States the drug store in the nearest equivalent to the coffee shan, but an ideal place to transact business, for it lacks sale and quiet. Last week I snake at some morn with Eduardo, Muller, Gommes, the assistant general man- ager of the American Coffee Co- lation which markets 200,000 000 pounds of coffee every year for the A. & P food stores. During our conversation we discussed the coffee drinking habits of the Bras- lian people. I was very much interested because Brazil is the coffee center of the world, and I wondered just how seriously Bras- lians took their coffee. And interestingly wome Brazilian from Santoz, told me that although it is hot in Brazil, the natives know nothing about ice coffee. They drink the beverage hot, and with- out cream. In the home it is taken much as here—with breakfast and, perhaps, demi-tasse after dinner. Business people, however, use their coffee drinking as an excuse to break up the business day. On the slightest provocation the Brazilian business man will go to a nearby coffee shop and have a few cups of black coffee. I think that this coffee drinking idea I Offer You $100 a Week Without experience, training or capital you can establish a big business for yourself.

I was much interested when Mr. Muller-Camps told me that iced coffee was unknown in Brazil. He did tell me, however, that in the exclusive restaurants coffee mixed with ice cream was served, and thus they called Cafe Viennese—coffee in the style of Vienna. This brought in many memories for me. -memories of my Cook's tour through Europe when I made a long stopover in Vienna. I remember Cafe Viennese and coffee as it was served in Demel's, exclusive caterer to royalty and exroyalty. In this ultra-fashionable restaurant coffee is served with a great deal of ceremony. Fresh coffee is served black in beautiful silver pots. Heated milk or cream is served in a large bowl and topped with the Viennese "Schlag-Ober" (just good old American whipped cream.) And speaking of Cook's tours and coffee recalls a question put to me by a young Italian, in the diplomatic service in Rome, who asked me why Italian coffee was so unsatisfactory. I went into his kitchen and discovered to my horror that his cook a thrifty Italian woman of ample proportions, used the coffee grounds over and over again. When I explained to the young man that fresh coffee vitally important in brewing of good coffee, and that the coffee pot method his cook used needed coffee and coffee, I made a lifelong friend. He argued his cook into brewing fresh, coarse-ground coffee always. He told me later that he made many excellent associations for himself through the fame of the coffee he served in his home.
