HEAR! HEAR!!
The
ROUNDER
Harry L. Davis' petitions are being circulated. Every member of the race in this city, a voter, should make it his business to sign one of the petitions. Pass the word along to all.
"Jim-crow" roller skating night is Friday evening at Luna park rink. It ought not to be necessary to tell self and race respecting members of the race to stay away from that rink.
Has the bottom fallen out of the candidacy for membership in the board of education of Rev. David O. Walker, pastor of St. James' A. M. E. church? Little or nothing is being heard of it, these days. Many of our people feel that he ought to pull out of the race for several good reasons.
Last Saturday noon, as usual, The Rounder dined at Ludolf Mueller's restaurant stand in the Woodland Market, just inside of the Woodland Ave. entrance, the best place in the city to get a good lunch or meal. And this is what we had: Roast lamb (not mutton), carrots and peas, mashed potatoes, postum (tea, coffee or milk),enty of ice cream (rye or ice cream), and best of butter etc. For all of this we paid only 35 cents. Mr. Mueller also serves the best beer and soft drinks in the city. Go in and see for yourself.
Sylvester Williams' Community Center meeting, Monday evening, had an unexpected speaker who livened things up for the audience. The speaker (white) who was scheduled to make a return talk to the local Baptist ministers' conference failed to make a reply with the reason that Mr. Edward Mitchell of Olive Ct., in an informal talk, stirred things up considerably by caustically criticizing "The Blossom Triplets" and our other local officeholders. Mr. Mitchell is one of our most loyal members of the race, a clear thinker and a leader. He took the breath away from the audience, especially the ministers, with his criticisms, and other statements of facts.
Walter R. McCornack, local architect, head of a "slum clearance" rehousing project known as Cleveland Homes, Inc., has announced that the land in the area bounded by Cedar and Central Aves., extending from E. 22d to E. 36th St., is what they have their eyes on now; that it is only one area of the areas that company has the right under the law to force, thru the courts, the sale of any land in these areas they desire. This will practically be confiscation of privately owned property which the people who own land in the so-called slum areas should begin to pay attention to at once. McCornack's company, recently "chartered for slum clearance in the area," has made a third change in the occupancy of the district (Ward 11) improved" with modern housing for lower (poorer) income groups of people. It freely and publically admits that the lowest (poorest) income groups can only be provided such housing with the aid of philanthropy. This would necessarily remove our people as residents of that ward from the risk of the company. The fatal mistake of the company is its figuring on too low a rental basis the value of the land it wishes to practically confiscate, in Ward 11 and the district for its "modern housing" project, "with parks," etc.
Miss Willa Brown entertained royally for her uncle, Lefty Streets, and the rest of the "Pittsburgh Craw-fords." recently.

OUR CATHOLICS
TO CONVENE HERE
A National Conference on Afro-Americans in Industry — Bishops Schrembes and McFadden.
Headquarters for the ninth annual convention of the National Catholic Interracial Federation have been opened at the Cathedral Community House in this city. Besides the national executive committee of the Federation, a local clergy committee, and a local lay committee, are cooperating to organize the convention which will meet Sept. 2, 3, and 4 at the Cathedral of St. John and the Cathedral Auditorium, this city. Oliver G. Waters is chairman of the local lay committee; Irving Curry, sec., and Frank E. Petitereas. Most Reverend Joseph Schrembes, bishop of Cleveland, is honorary chairman of the clergy committee. Rev. Thomas E. McKenney, pastor of the Church of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament, is sec. and treas.
Last year, the annual convention met in New York City where four thousand Afro-American Catholics from many parts of the country crowded St. Patrick's Cathedral to receive Holy Communion in a body of 10,000 people. The mass will be celebrated in St. John's Cathedral either by Bishop Schrembs or Bishop James A. McFadden, auxiliary bishop of the Cleveland diocese. The mass will be preceded by a procession of delegates. Large groups are expected to represent the parishes located in cities near to Detroit, Toledo, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Columbus and Chicago.
On Saturday, Sept. 2, the day preceding the formal opening of the convention, the National Catholic Welfare Conference's department on industrial relations will sponsor a conference on the Afro-American history and society, and come an annual affair and has succeeded in arousing a wide-spread interest in our industrial problems. The discussions and papers are based on the great encyclicals of Leo XII and on his dealing with the Christian reformation of the social order. Specific applications are made to our economic problems.
BISHOP DEMBY HONORED!
He Participated in the Observance of Bishop Thomas F. Gialor's Anniversaries.
Little Rock, Ark—The Rt. Rev. E. Thomas Demah, our first bishop of the Protestant Episcopal church in America, last week accepted an invitation to participate in the observance of the fortieth anniversary of the consecration of the Rt. Rev. Thomas F. Gailor, as bishop of Tennessee, and the twenty-fifth anniversary of the tenure as chancellor of the University, south, at Sewanee, Tenn., Tuesday. Bishop Demah was our only representative in the procession of 350, which included the governor of Tennessee, members of the Supreme Court of that state, 40 American bishops and others. The anniversary service was broadcast over the NBC chain from 10:30 to 11:30 a. m., that day. In institution, extended by the chairman of the observance, Bishop Demah preached, Monday night, for our mission at Sewanee and confirmed a large class. Bishop Gallor preached the consecration sermon for Bishop Demah fifteen years ago.

THE LUNCH WITH THE ABYSSINIAN AMBASSADOR EXTRAORDINARY. RAS DESTA DEMTU.
"Roosevelt, Our President, Courageous and Bold, Missed 'The Ethiopian Lunch' Because of a Cold."
Washington, D. C. —The coming to this country, Tuesday, July 18, of His Highness Ras Desta Demtu, son-in-law of the Emperor of Ethiopia, was a red-letter event both for Abyssinia and the United States. He was an Ambassador Extraordinary, in office on a mission, in token of appreciation of the American Special Mission to the Coronation of His Imperial Majesty, Haile Selassie 1.
A most elaborate program had been arranged in his honor. In fact so elaborate that every hour of the day and night featured a variety of entertainment. That to which the sion of royalty looked with great gust and eagerness was the luncheon with President Roosevelt scheduled for Wednesday, July 18, at 1 p. m.
Never has the truth, of that age-old adage, been more conspicuously verified than on this auspicious occasion. White citizens thrust the country, particularly those of the Sunny South, waited with bated breath the anticipated stretching forth of Ethiopia's dark hand and its clasp by the illy-white fingers of our gallant ruler. Colored citizens paused and looked at the one was coming and with it the pride that came along many years ago, when another Roosevelt dined with another member of their race, who was also "Black but comely." Wednesday came. The Hour for lunch arrived. Alas, for those who awaited the feast "the bridegroom was missing," the man who rendered hors de combat, the gallant Roosevelt, that warrior who had been victor on a hundred political battlefields, the hero who had forced

VACATION CRUISES MAKE
THE WORLD'S FAIR A
REAL PLEASURE TRIP
Visitors returning from "A Century of Progress." Chicago's great World's Fair, now in the full height of its glory and activity, are enthusiastic about the marvelous exhibits from all over the world, but those who have enjoyed it the most, according to their own enthusiastic statements, are the five hundred who participated in the first World's Fair Vacation Cruise on the Great SEE-ANDREE Lake Liner.
To do justice to the innumerable magnificent exhibitions, attractions and diversions of the World's Fair is a severe tax of physical energy of even the most robust, but those who made the trip on the great lux- steamer were rested in body and mind and were the most important of the most of the opportunities of the Fair. The pleasant, companionable, social life on shipboard with the daily entertainments by professional performers, deck sports, games, contests, dancing to an excellent orchestra in the beautiful new ball room which was completed at the cost of many dollars. These sheer cruises, made the Chicago-bound and the return voyage the most pleasurable vacation imaginable.
During the two full days and nights at Chicago the great ship SEEANDBEE served as a luxurious floating hotel. The guests slept and ate aboard so there was no weariness or worry regarding accommodations. Since the single low fare included all expenses, transportation, stateroom, meals, sightseeing trips, and admission to the Fair itself, the question of finances was pretty well settled in advance. More of these wonderfully delightful cruises on the great ship SEEANDBEE will be operated during the remainder of the summer. The first one leaves Buffalo, July 27th, and Cleveland, July 28, and covers a six-day period. The next cruise is from August 4th out of Buffalo and August 5th out of Cleveland and includes eight full days, four of which are at the World's Fair. The two later dates are August 21st, and August 29th, respectively, out of Cleveland and a day earlier out of Buffalo each of six days' duration.
For many years people have regarded the Great Lakes cruise as one of the pleasantest and most restful vacations possible, but this year with the World's Fair as an added attraction, these cruises will be in truth an opportunity of a lifetime.
The crowd surged, crowded, pushed and jammed into the Hippodrome, last week Friday, for the first appearance in a local theater of Cab Calloway and his Cotton club orchestra.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 1933.
We do not believe that Jesse Owens of this city is so lacking in self and race respect as to ever be induced to attend school at Ohio State University, in the face of that institution's aggravatingly insulting mistreatment of both Wilhelmina Styles and Doris Weaver of this city.
IS IT A "DUMP"?
It looks very much to us as if the State Department at Wilberforce is being used as a "dump" for Ohio State University. Wilhelmina Styles and Doris Weaver, two of our girl students, were graduated from O. S. U. last, and this year, respectively, altho both were refused the practical part of the Home Economics course by President Rightmire and the Board of Trustees. Failing to secure positions to teach in other states because of this lack of training in Home Economics, both Miss Styles and Miss Weaver have been given places in the State Department at Wilberforce. This also leads one to believe that the "jim-crow" school movement, inaugurated some months ago by "jim-crow Negroes," to have this state take over Wilberforce University for the purpose of relieving state institutions, particularly, of their colored pupils, is not dead but working "under cover" and will bear close watching in the future by all who are opposed to "jim-crowing" the schools of Ohio.
It doesn't seem to make any difference with some of our so-called educated "Negroes" how much like monkeys certain comedians of color make them look just so the "Negro monkey or monkeys" are popular with other groups or classes of people. We can understand the lower grades of "Negroes" worshipping and extolting "Negro monkeys" popular with other groups or classes but we cannot understand educated "Negroes" doing that sort of thing unless they are "gold diggers" for themselves, some organization, or other people. Then, too, there are those "educated Negroes" who find it possible to praise Eugene O'Neil's plays, "The Nigger", "The Emperor Jones" and other productions very harmful to the race. Lord, have mercy!
According to the Cincinnati Union, our highly esteemed conferee, W. P. Dabney, editor, Cincinnati's only "Negro" councilman, Frank A. B. Hall, after urging for some time that "taxicabs be provided for Negroes", has been successful in his efforts, with the result that the "Ferguson cabs, green and burnt orange", an enterprise owned by whites with the "Negro" for manager after whom the cabs are named, are on the streets of Cincinnati. Some old colorline scheme to worm money out of the pockets of "Negroes" for others. Councilman Hall's action in the matter reminds us so much of the "Blossom Triplets" (our Cleveland councilman) that he deserves to be classed with them. Our people of that city, as well as Cleveland, will have an opportunity again, this fall to get rid of such misrepresentation. Will they do it?
MADAME SELIKA
It may interest Editor Dabney (of The Cincinnati Union) to know that Mme. Selika is still alive and has been active in the musical world of New York for a number of years as a teacher of singing.
She visits The Age every week.—N. Y. Age.
It does interest and please greatly Editor Wendell Phillips Dabney as well as the writer. Mme. Selika and her husband, Sampson Williams, lived in Cleveland, off and on, for several years, many years ago, and she still has many old friends here
as well as in Cincinnati. Among the number we are very pleased to say is the write. The editor of the New York Age will please greatly by remembering us kindly to the Madame when next she visits the Age's sanctum.

The sport writers of local daily papers gave the attendance as 4,000 Sunday afternoon week, at the Pittsburgh Crawford-Chicago Giant baseball League in League Park. "Negro" sport-writers and foreign, announced the attendance as 7,000. "Blow-bagging!"
Metcalfe Abroad
Ralph Metcalfe, an Olympic sprint star, won the 100 meters and the 200 meters, in leading the U. S. touring track team to victory over Swedish and Danish runners at Malmo and Stockholm, Sweden, last week. Metcalfe has equaled or broken every standard 100 and 200-meter sprint record.
Phil Edwards Still an "Ace," Hamilton, Ont—Phil Edwards, Canada's blue-ribbon offering as a middle distance runner, representing the Hamilton Club here, last week bedded Sunday, and competing with the picked Oxford-Cambridge team, accounted for two firsts; the 880-yard run in 1:55.8, and the 440-yard run in 0:50 seconds flat. The Hamilton Club won the meet with seven first places to four for Oxford and Cambridge.
Referee Censured.
San Francisco, Calif.—After flooring his opponent twice for eight counts in the ninth round and apparently being on the way to a one-sided victory, "Gorilla" Jones, middleweight, of Akron, O., was qualified in the tenth round last given Vearl Whitehead (white) of Santa Monica. Referee Bill Doran was severely criticized by the North-
GORILLA
JONES
ern California Boxing Managers' Association for stopping the fight and awarding the decision to Whitehead. The association, thru its executive board, forwarded a recommendation to the State Athletic Commission that the referee be censured and Jones be exonerated of any charge of "stalling". He had a big lead when the fight was stopped and had floored Whitehead twice for eight counts in the ninth round.
DOINGS OF THE RACE.

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT
Our mob-violence or anti-lynching bill was introduced in the Ohio legislature in 1894 and re-introduced in 1896. It took the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, just three years to secure its enactment into law. 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 also enacted anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other state states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws in recent years. The Ohio law follows:
Section 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined.
6279. "Serious injury" defined.
6280. Damages in case of assault.
6281. Damages in cases of lynching.
6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching.
6283. Person suffering death or injury by mob mob trying to lynch another.
6284. Limitations of action.
6285. Order to include recovery and costs in tax levy.
6286. Guardian's custody, etc., fees.
6287. County's right of action against member of mob.
6288. County's right of action against another county.
6289. Non-relief from prosecution.
Section 6278. A collection of people assembled for an unlawful purpose and intending to do damage or injury to any one, or pretending to exercise correctional power over other persons by violence and without authority of law, shall be deemed a for the purpose of this chapter. An act of violence by a mob upon the body of any person shall constitute a "lynching" within the meaning of this chapter. (93 v. 161 2.) at such lynching shall be deemed a member of the mob and be liable to such action. (93 v. 162 10).

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 the authorities 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 dollars 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.

Farmer's Relief Must Come First, Says Industrial Leader
President of Goodrich Rubber Company Urges Support of Roosevelt.—Does Not Oppose Cotton Relief Program Although Company Is One of Largest Users of Cotton
JAMES-D Tew, president of the B. F. Goodrich Rubber Company, one of the largest users of cotton in the United States, stated in a recent interview that his company will support whole-heartedly the efforts of President Roosevelt. If the new farm bill accomplishes the purpose for which it is designed, it will increase the price of cotton as well as other farm products and so will add many problems to the management of the rubber company. On the other hand, Mr. Tew said that he felt strongly that this is the time when everyone should earnestly cooperate with the administration in its efforts to overcome the extraordinarily trying conditions which have so long prevailed.
FAVORS FARMER
"We must all forget our selfish interests and inconveniences in the interest of prosperity for the country at large," Mr Tew continued. "President Roosevelt is now in command of our ship of state. It is our common duty to back his leadership, We of the B. F. Goodrich Company, propose to do so in spite of the fact that our production and distribution problems may become much more difficult.
"Few people realize," Mr. Tew stated, "the tire and rubber industry is one of the largest users of cotton. Cotton is second in importance to rubber in the manufacture of tires, belting, hose, overshoes and scores of other products of the Goodrich Company. In dollar value it nearly equals our rubber cost.
The President's farm relief program is designed to increase the price of farm products, including raw cotton. The realization of this purpose will obviously increase the production cost of more cotton articles and the prices of such articles will incorporate a substantial percentage of cotton. We feel very

strongly, however, that in the

The Goodrich company recently restored the salaries of employees in all departments to the level in effect prior to March 6, with the expectation that constructive legislation at Washington will soon result in greater business activity.

Two "colored" baseball teams, members of the "Negro" national league, played two interesting games last Sunday afternoon, on the old 1920s baseball league team, the owners of which absolutely refuse to employ a "Negro" ballplayer. They do employ a Jewish ballplayer (Galatzer), however. What wonderful (?) people are some "Negroes." They compliment, patronize and even praise some times, their bitterest enemies—those who not only kick them, but speak, but deny them citizen-rights. They wonder Mayor Ray T. Miller failed to materialize for the purpose of throwing the first ball over (or near) the plate.
We never could quite understand why Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt absolutely refused to intervene and stop the U. S. War Department from "jim-crowning" our Gold Star Mothers who were sent to Europe to the graves their martyred sons who lost their lives in World War. One prefers to feel that men big enough to be elected Chief Executives of this great nation are too big to permit such as that. They wouldn't dare permit the Gold Star Mothers of any other group or class of American citizens to be so insulted, humiliated and mistreated, by the same token, no other class of American citizens would so supinely submit to it without striking back, almost en masse, when the opportunity was afforded on election day. People who have so little self and race respect cannot expect others to respect them.

A LITTLE SICK WOMAN
Brutally Beaten and Arrested—Taken To Jail From Her Bed By Several Policemen.
Dayton. —On the pretext of looking for a thief, three policemen (white) burst into the sick room of Mrs. Mary Sanders, last week, dragged her to the police station and beat her until her face was unrecoignable. Mrs. Sanders, and so much that she was warned by her physician not to leave her bed, was accused by the policemen "of knowing a person alleged to have robbed a truck driver (white) of $25 in her home." When she protested that she knew nothing of what was happening outside her own room, the officers forced her into a car and struck her across the eyes with a blackjack. Altho so weak that she had to be carried into the police station, she was severely beaten and refused medical aid.
LIFE
To do your little bit of toil,
To play Life's game with head erect,
To stoop to nothing that would soil
Your honor or your self-respect,
To win what gold or fame you can,
But first of all to be a man.
To know the bitter and the sweet,
The sunshine and the days of rain,
To meet both victory and defeat,
Nor boast too loudly, nor complain,
To face whatever fates befall,
And be a man throughout it all.
To seek success in honest strife,
But not to value it so much,
That winning it you go through life
Stained by Dishonor's scarlet touch.
What goal or dream you choose, pursue,
But be a man whate'er you do.
The Truth!
What would cause other people to grasht 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. It seems impossible to establish unanimity of insult in the black race.—Chicago (III.) Whip.
"WORTH ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD"!
Cleveland, O., Aug. 25, 1932.
Hon. Harry C. Smith.
Editor, Gazette.
Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold!
I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it, and, if possible, smite it. You and I have frequently, during the fifty years since the birth of the Gazette, been, as the Scotch like two McNells, but, when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, thru half a century, puts his race foremost in his life struggle, I take off my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and "The Old Reliable" Gazette.
Yours for the right.

Revival of Garden Party Type Frocks Edinburgh Sights
By CHERIE NICHOLAS

1
BACK to the "perfect picture" type of costume swings the pendulum of fashion this summer. Wherever fashionables gather at formal outdoor occasions the scene is graced with lovely ladies wearing romantic costumes which declare the revival of quantt and alluring garden-party frocks. Most artfully be-frilled and be-ruffled are these summery creations which are styled of wondrous sheer weaves, with skirts reaching to the ground, and hats the wide brims of which have not been so wide and picturesque for many a season past.
This revival of the beguilingly feminine in dress is especially apparent near and about the French capital this summer, where smart Parisiennes have been wearing just such enchanting gowns and chapeaux to the races as you see pictured in the group herewith.
It would be difficult to conceive of anything more entrancing in the way of midsummer array than this trio of sheer alfay-frocks topped with hats whose shallow crowns and widened brims are the very essence of poetry in millinery.
At every turn of the road in fashion's realm organdle in profusion greets the eye this summer, and if not organdle and mousseline de sole which enthrals even more because of its elusive sheerness. The winsome gown to the left in the picture tells a romantic story in terms of intricately beruffed panels at each side of its voluminous skirt and in the wee jacket of palett taffetta, the message being completed via one of the wide-brimmed capellines which are so distinctively
DAYTIME SKIRTS AND SKIRT LENGTHS
The smooth bell skirt flaring from the hips without exaggerated ripples, but permitting plenty of freedom, is the favorite for all daylight hours. There are some back and front pleats variously placed; a few all-around plated skirts. Some creators, like Worth and Paton, favor the straight and narrow, particularly for suits.
Daytime skirt lengths, in general, look a little longer—from 8 to 10 inches off the ground. Schiaparelli and Paton both show some a bit shorter—12 or 13 inches off.
Angel Wing Shoulders on
Evening Jackets Newest
Angel wings appeared in 1933 styles for modish mortals when Schlaparelli launched her midseason collection showing "angel wing shoulders" on little evening jackets. These innovations are curved pieces of fabric extending from the top of the shoulder to the shoulder blade. They stand straight out on the mannequin's back.
Among the models was a little waist-length evening wrap of pansy blue crepe sprinkled with white blossoms, designed with angel wing shoulders, and worn with a white crepe evening frock.
Hookless, buttonless frocks pulled over the head were another feature of the display.
Slender, crinkled-crepe-frocks with waistlines above normal were designed with round necklines finished with elastic ribbon, which pull wide when slipped over the head and snap back into place to fit closely around the throat.
You can make yourself an attractive dinner outfit by using a bright-colored washable fabric for the dress itself and lining a white linen or pique jacket with the same color.
Black for Swim Suits
Smart for swimming are black bathing suits worn with white accessories—or vice versa.

new in that their crowns are exceedingly shallow and their brims amazingly broad. What's more they are worn to dip over an eye in a most tantalizing manner.
The model in the center is an entrancing sheer print frock such as Paris so widely acclaims for warm summer days. Note the shoulder treatment a la rue. The identical sheer print trims the perfectly fascinating picture hat which milady wears. The gloves are black velvet, if you please, which well they may be according to fashion's latest edict.
Comes thirdly in the picture a lovely sheer gown the decorative feature of which centers in exquisite hand-embroidery which is worked to a nicety on bodice, sleeves and skirt. Again a huge capeline of the so-called shepherdess-type, such as fashion adores this summer, adds the finishing touch to this costume.
While these three entrancing gowns serve as criterions of what's what in Paris midsummer modes, yet they tell but part of the story. There were, for example any number of "picture" gowns fashioned with almost unbelievable simplicity which added infinitely to their lure. In some instances trimming was conspicuous by its absence in that many of the crisp transparencies and beloved sheer prints were individualized solely through varied sleeve treatments (some quite exaggerated) and with differing necklines, some of which were square-cut, others rounded and many softly draped.

VOGUISH COTTONS
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Cottons are playing a spectacular role on the stage of fashion. The attractive lassie in the picture is dressed in cotton from the tip-top of her pretty head down to her hemline, for hat, jacket and dress are all of a spongy soft cotton weave. The plaid cotton presents as handsome an appearance as more pretentious tweed and the beauty of it is that it tubs perfectly. The bolero jacket with its scarf neckline is removable. Together with its matching beret it can be worn with any number of dresses.

Prepared by National Geographic Society,
BURNHURG, focal point of many
EURNS through Scotland, is sing-
ularly, if austerely, beautiful.
The city is a honeycomb of
massive stone buildings rising to
heights that made it the Manhattan
of the Middle ages, some of the walls
so thick that long afterward elevators
could be installed without protruding
into the rooms.
By all precedents and guide books,
the Edinburgh visitor should head
straight for Castle Hill. But to some,
the first thriller they ever read, "Doctor
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," still is the
most vivid tale of Edinburgh. So they
hunt out Brodie's Close, dank and
dark to this day, though not so evil-
smelling as when its dual denizen.
Deacon Brodie, was a Doctor Jekyll
by day and a Mr. Hyde by night.
Pause before entering the close—you
would call it it an alley—and the mind's
eye converges into a swift news reel
of events along the history-encrusted
Royal Mile, into which it opens.
Grand Dame Eleonor, countess of Stair, leaps from yonder window (still in full view) to escape a tantrum of her violent, if blue-blooded, husband. Down a "wynd" whispers one hag to another gossip from opposite seventh stories, the ancient walls leaning like two Pisas. Dainty Miss Eglintoun, later Lady Wallace, skips across the way to pick a kettle from the community well. Haydenish duchess of Gordon rides a sow she had captured under a neighbor's "forestairs," while her more dignified sister belabors the animal with a stick.
Only the backbone street was wide enough for carriages in those days; ladies and gallants were borne in sedan chairs by stout Highlanders into the side arteries for teas and calls. Burghers' wives, in silks or Scotland's fine wool, shopped for jewels in basement cubbyholes, or bought velvet and laces at tiny booths under roofs of the balconies reached by the peculiar forestairs of nearly every tenement. They were jostled by countrywomen in green and crimson homespun, and by sailors from ships that brought over cattle and tallow from the Low Countries.
The Lawnmarket Sector.
THE LAWMARKET SECURITY
Brodie's Close opens now, as then, into the Lawmarket corporation of the Mile, where Bradie's parliament once ordained "all cotton cloth, white and grey; all lynching cloth is to be sold there and in no other place." Open stalls and canvas-topped booths, displaying bolts of cotton and webs of linen, were besieged as are bargain counters today.
About you remain the "lands" or tenements of the days when a city wall pressed to an altitude and compactness like the lower East side in New York. Of course, your memory can disregard time and bring events of centuries into instant focus.
Todding aristocrats play with racing raganuffins. They scurry at the approach of a party of Knights of France in glittering armor, their pennants flying, on their way to a tournament to compete for the coveted king's prize, a golden lance.
One day Mary, queen of Scots, spirited in spite of her ill-omened reception at Leith, rides by on a white palrefay, a tiny pearl crown nestling on her high-dressed hair. Twelve courtiers, in black and crimson, carry a canopy for her. At Netherbow she halts to receive the keys of the city; she extends her little hand for the provost to kiss. The sun suddenly emerges and glistens in her white satin gown.
Quick-witted, she utters an impulsive greeting "The sun comes out with me, Master Provost." The city is hers; from mouth to mouth passes the cry, "God bless her bonnie face."
No Place for Night Stroils.
Ten 'o'clock; the tavern and clubs disgorge their crowds. Everybody rushes for home. Up and down the street rings out the world's most effective curfew—the cry, "gardy-loo, gardy-loo" (gardez leau). Down pour swish and garbage from hundreds of tenement windows. It is a luckless citizen who has not reached shelter.
Little wonder the fussy Boswell, try

for captions Johnson, complained, "I could not prevent his being assailed by the evening effluvia of Edinburgh." The residents of fashionable St. James court were thought very aloof and squeamish when they engaged a private scavenger to remove their refuse. Today all Edinburgh is equipped with a modern sewage-disposal system, and even its narrowest streets are kept immaculate.
From Brodie's Close steals a stealthy, sinister figure, all wrapped round in a black coat. Beneath its folds he clutches a pistol and a ring of keys. Furtively he enters this shop and that. Earlier in the evening—any evening for several years—a most respectable town council, who also was a deacon of the Guild of Wryghts and Masons, attired in immaculate tail coat and breeches, might have been seen leaning against a door post where some merchant had trustfully hung his keys while he was at his tavern. Concealed in the palm of his hand was a clay mold. From an impression it was easy to make a key. Robberies became so frequent that the town council called a meeting. Deacon Brodie gravely counseled about ways of stopping the depredations. He thoughtfully advised tradesmen about the kinds of bolts to put on their doors. So zealous was he that he even went about while merchants were at dinner to make sure their doors were locked. One night a particularly heinous robber took place and two culprits were caught. A third escaped. Strangely, the highly respectable Deacon Brodie also disappeared. Stories went around. Certain cronies whispered how the good deacon gambled with them for high stakes. Two of his mistresses complained that the kind gentleman had gone away and made no provision for them.
Deacon Brodie was apprehended in Amsterdam, lodged in the grim Tolbooth, and executed October 1, 1788. His skeleton keys now hang in the Museum of Antiquities. His "strange case" was immortalized by Stevenson. The fact that he could operate on such a cramped stage, scarcely a twenty-minute walk in any direction from his happy family fireside, emphasizes the tremendous crowding of the Old Town.
Architecture of Old Times.
The Royal Mile, from Castle Hill, through Lawnmarket, High street, and Canongate, is clean today, but its temements are just as crowded, and they justify the modern implication of the term, for wealth and fashion have migrated to the broad streets and stately squares of the New Town.
There remain the molded doorways, armorial bearings, crests and texts, the peak gables, the intricately carved finials, the mammoth locks and door handles, and the exterior forestals, leading up one flight to the interior "turnpike" stairs to the floors above.
One architectural feature is puzzling. In some houses there appears a silt much narrower than other windows. Inspection discloses that these apertures light tiny closets opening off the dining rooms. They were retreats for the head of the house, where he might perform his devotions.
From Lawnmarket it is only a short walk to Castle Rock, whence Edinburgh was hewn, which anchored the Old Town, which uplifts the castle whose history spans half the world.
Standing guard over the opposite end of Princes street from Castle Rock in Calton Hill, affording a view that reaches out to Fife and the Ochils. Calton is dotted with an amazing collection of monumental and architectural curiosities which, somehow, seem to achieve harmony.
Beside the incomplete Parthenon of Craigleith columns, there is a Nelson monument that shelters a museum; homely Bobbie Burns is awarded a copy of the choragic temple of Lyster crates; a high school reproduces the Temple of Theseus at Athens; there also are an observatory, a burying ground, the tombs of Hume and of Stevenson's parents, and a jail! Gazing in another direction from Calton Hill, the eye catches ionely Holyrood, aloof from the city, crouching under the mighty shadows of Salisbury Crags.
