Hill of Dayton was here Wednesday, looking after his property on Clifton Rd.—Bishops R. C. Ransom, John A. Gregg and President R. R. Wright attended sessions of the Federal Council of Churches, this week, in Dayton. Wednesday afternoon, Dr. Wright spoke on "The Responsibility of the Christian Church for Economic Justice to the Negro." —Examinations were held, this week, for work given for the fall quarter. A large number of new students have registered for the winter quarter. The W. C. T. U. meeting, last Friday evening, at Mrs. Geo. T. David's, was largely attended. The program was in charge of Mrs. Ada Young, a graduate and an interactive talk on Public Health and Miss Helen Ferguson of Xenia rendered several solos.

Nairobi, Kenya Colony, E. Africa. —The greatest man in all Africa is a native from the Donyo Sabuk district of Kenya who has become the father of twins—each child by a different wife. Polygamy is common among Kenya natives but the coincidence of the two births on the same day represents a 1,000,000 to 1 chance, medical statisticians say. The ROUNDER Wednesday's local daily papers announced that only 25 cases in the optioning of 166 parcels of land in the Outhwaite slum clearance housing project may go to court. There ought to be many more and doubtless will be when property-owners in that area learn what increases U. S. court action secured Joe Smith's daughter ($2,540) and other property-owners in the Cedar-Central area. The Gilpin players of the Karamu theater are giving, this week, "The Emperor Jones" and "Sermon In the Valley," both plays that are "colorful in their reflection and characterization of jazz and jungle." As usual, Wonder if they will ever give other than plays that make their own people have steadily patronized the Gilpin players' "attractions," have tired of this sort of thing and have withdrawn their support. The N. A. A. C. P. local branch, at its meeting, Tuesday evening, in Antioch Baptist church, cor. Cedar Ave. and E. 98th St., adopted a resolution terming the federal housing project in the Cedar-Central area "slum transference and not slum elimination." Leading a discussion before the resolution was adopted President L. Pearl Mitchell said the proposed rentals ($6, $6.50 per room) for the new buildings would be prohibitive "for the group they allegedly are being constructed for." Miss Mitchell is right as The Gazette has stated from time to time for quite a year. It was not intended, from the very first and so stated ever since, by those fathering the so-called "slum-clearance" project, to care for "the lowest income group," the poor colored and white residents of the area. They have already been driven to the joining district. And as The Gazette has repeatedly stated our people able to pay the $6 and $6.50 a room will not be allowed to rent in the area by the southern Democratic-controlled government now in charge of the rehabilitation of the Cedar-Central area. Miss Mitchell, it is not "transference" or "elimination" but EVICTION, pure and simple. It is an outrage! Common Pleas Judges decided, last week Friday, to permit former Councilman Thomas W. Fleming to again practice law, at an early date but not immediately, according to Chief Justice Homer G. Powell. About time to do so, isn't it? At the hearing before the judges, Tom testified that he had no other means of support than what he could earn as a lawyer and that he had done "nothing whatever" since he returned to Cleveland. He did not say what a tremendous loss, in several ways, he has sustained as a result of the trouble forced on him. Nearly every Cleveland gas user will receive a check from the East Ohio Gas Co. for a refund on gas bills between Dec. 7 and Christmas day. Persons who have moved during the past two years will receive their checks on time because the postoffice here keeps changes of address over a two-year period. The refund goes back, however, to Oct. 1931. Therefore, it has been suggested that those who moved prior to Dec. 17, 1932, send their former addresses to the postoffice, at once and thus make certain of getting their checks immediately. Its Quarrels With Ethiopia Abyssinia—Looking for Trouble—Wants More Territory in Africa. Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Africa.—The Ethiopian government denies Rome reports that armed Ethiopians attacked an Italian outpost, recently, and asserts Italians took the initiative, and ordered its charge d'affaires at Rome to file vigorous protest. Native forces from the Italian Somali and started the clash, Emperor Hallie Selassie's government charges, adding that these forces now have advanced 75 miles into Ethiopian territory. The official version here is the Italian forces, armed with tanks, artillery and planes, attached themselves to Abyssinian forces escorting a joint British-Abyssinian commission engaged in surveying grazing land. Rome, Italy.—An official communique declares "false and tendencies" dispatches from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, asserting Italian forces were the aggressors in an affray between Italians and Ethiopians, Dec. 5. The communique pointed out that the Italians were defenders in their own territory, and insisted they were subjected to an aggression for which Italy will demand full explanations and indemnities. The alleged border clash, the second in as many months, occurred at Ualual, Stefani (Italian), News, the Genocy, the Ethiopians, armed with machine guns and cannon, were driven off only after reinforcements were sent to the outpost.

Church, spoke in the Little Thea fore coming to Cleveland he served as pastor of Butler St. C. M. E. church, Atlanta, and of Lane Tabernacle, St. Louis. He is a fine man. His plea for understanding of the real nature of racial antipathy and for a determination to work toward its removal was made to a splendid audience that thoroly appreciated all the speaker said. "The cause for racial maladjustment does not lie with one race, nor does the remedy." Dr. Evans said. "The real remedy is in co-operation and our task is to find the terms of co-operation."

As an auxiliary to its state-wide radio system, the patrol now has a teletypewriter system between Ohio and seven other states to aid in curbing inter-state criminal activities. Initially installed for a 90-day trial, the system will be made permanent if successful. Speeds Police Messages The teletype system, which has its headquarters at Massillon, serves the same function in dispatching rapid and accurate police reports throughout the northeastern section of the United States that the patrol radio system does in spreading alarms within the state. The Ohio teletype station ties into a seven-state police teletype circuit which includes Pennsylvania, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Delaware and New Jersey. Information valuable to these states and New England that is placed on the teletype immediately shows in 800 police offices of the states involved. THE GAZETTE is the oldest class publication of the kind, and has the largest bona fide circulation among Ohio Afro-Americans, double that of any other newspaper published in this or any other state, and comparatively in the United States, which lits its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans. helping to minimize, racial frictions was cited by Dr. Evans. **Church Impotent.** "The church has stood by impotent," he said. "We might have expected a sustained protest from the pulpit, but none has been forthcoming. We have no positive conclusions. Ethical religions failed us or the question was not the responsibility of religion. If it was religious forces which failed us, then we have no choice but to believe the church is decaying. If a member of the white race could put himself in the place of the Negro and really feel the sting of racial discrimination, you can be sure that something would have been done about the question long ago. In spite of great handicaps the Negro has been able to "what could he have done if the handicaps had not been present?" Evils and handicaps which affect Afro-Americans most, Dr. Evans said, were lynching ("the contrivance of the lowest depths of the genius of the vicious and the wicked"); industrial inequality ("the Negro is always last to be benefited in prosperity and first to suffer in depression"), and social injustice ("In the South he pays full fare on trains and street cars but gets a travesty on services. No matter how hard one has to work and rush from city to city for other engagements, he can not get the comforts of a Pullman berth in which to rest at night or accommodation at a decent hotel, and many a time can no warm meal to sustain him.

Regular schedules for exchange of information also are maintained by the Ohio station with Clarkburg, W. Va.; Louisville, Ky.; Indianapolis, Fort Wayne and Richmond, Ind., and Knoxville, Tenn. This circle of contact is being rapidly widened as other points realize the value of swift communication in coping with the automobile bandits, according to Highway Director O. W. Merrell of Ohio. Predicts U. S. Aid The importance of an adequate radio and teletype communication system to combat the swift-moving criminal is evidenced by the fact that automobiles are involved in 85 per cent of all felonies committed. The teletypewriter is ideal suited for police communication because of its secrecy, speed and accuracy. Merrell predicts that the day is not far off when the federal government will set up, through the Department of Justice, a series of radio control stations to act as a clearing house for the ever-expanding state networks. Under this plan, federal radio stations would only transmit messages where relay is impossible by any other means.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1934 It looks very much indeed like our warning of a few weeks ago to Emperor Hailie Selassie of Abyssinia was not given any too soon. See letter from Addis Ababa and the one from Rome, published elsewhere in this paper. There is absolutely no doubt in our mind that Premier Musolini wants "Ethiopia" (Abyssinia) and would wipe out (if possible) the ignominy of the crushing defeat the flower of the Italian army was given, years ago, by the Abyssinian army in the days of King Menelik. We are not surprised that the State Assembly passed the sales-tax, but that it stood adamant against an income tax. The sales-tax hits those least able to pay. The income tax would hit the prosperous and the rich in the pocket-book. So the Senate, in accordance with the established custom of most American deliberative bodies, decided to tax those least able to pay and favor the prosperous and the rich. It is the same delightful (?) spirit which causes legislators at Washington to move heaven and earth to capture a few kidnappers and to do nothing to arrest a lynch-murderer. How long, Lord, O. how long? PAGE PAYNE! At the health dispensaries, maintained in sections of the city frequented and patronized most largely by our people, separate days are set aside for the care of our patients. Why? This mistreatment is not only silly but positively insulting as well as illegal. Is it any wonder that so many of our people are not willing to vote for municipal levies for services they cannot use unless they are humiliated by the public's servants? Where, O! where is our councilman, Lawrence O. Payne, chairman of City Council's welfare committee? This disgraceful, insulting and inexcusable discrimination should be brot to Mayor Harry L. Davis' attention at once! HUBBARD RIGHT. THIS TIME. Monday evening, Councilman John E. Hubbard introduced in City Council a resolution protesting a requirement that applicants for jobs on the staff of the Cuyahoga County Relief Administration submit their photographs and state their race. This sort of thing was first developed in the civil service department of the southern-Democratic Thomas Woodrow Wilson administration and is evidently being propagated by the southern Democratic-controlled Roosevelt administration. Apparently, the latter is also losing no opportunity to force separation and segregation in the North in order to make conditions here, as far as the two races are concerned, as near like those in the South as possible. Councilman Hubbard's resolution should be backed up by our local organizations and the fight carried on beyond the resolution-phase of the matter. Eternal vigilance and activity are absolutely necessary if we are to enjoy liberty and our citizen-rights in common with other Americans. TIME TO FIGHT HARD! What has become of the good intentions expressed months ago by our Federation of Women's clubs? They were going to form "a local clearing house to combat prejudice." Nothing has been heard of the movement since. While we have the N. A. A. C. P. local branch, and the local branch of the League of Struggle, there is room for more sincere agencies that desire to combat discrimination. An organized woman's movement, properly led, can work marvels. We would especially like to see a powerful youth society formed, interracial in character, with a strong program of activity. We would like to see a powerful city-wide program initiated before the year ends. We hope that every pre- ```markdown ``` Today's Average Home Far Cleaner Than the Palaces of Old England JEWISH MEMORIAL judiced individual, occupying a position of importance in this community, will be relegated to oblivion before 1935 passes into history. This is not asking too much. There has been altogether too much mooning over the causes of discrimination and the ethics of race prejudice. It is time now to fight them and to fight them hard. An interracial united front, with youth occupying a position of importance, can effect marvels. DECAY OF SOCIAL ORDER. In "Time," magazine for Nov. 26, 34, there appeared a most illuminating account of the celebrated Vanderbilt case. Those of our people who are inclined to worry too much about the occasional slips from grace by erring Afro-American sisters of poverty will take heart. We are accustomed to vision wealth, culture, and refinement when we read of a twentieth-century Vanderbilt. The fight over possession of Gloria Vanderbilt, between her mother, Mrs. Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt, and her aunt, Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, will cause us to have considerably more regard for the "brown-skinned daughter of joy who takes the so-called 'easiest way' to earn a living. No pitiful slum product is one-tenth as disgusting as Mrs. Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt, according to sworn testimony offered before the Supreme Court of the State of New York. If you question the extent of the decay of our social order, then examine the Gloria Vanderbilt affair, where some of society's greatest lights are presented as "rotters" of the lowest order. Afro-America, with all its failings, has never worshipped a replica, colored or white, of Mrs. Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt. It has shown too much common sense for that. THE NEW DEAL AND FASCISM It is becoming apparent every day that the New Deal is the stalking horse for American Fascism. That is the reason why conservative daily papers, such as the Plain Dealer, were able to ridicule General Smedley Butler's recent charges that a strong Fascist movement was in the making, financed by astute Wall Street brokers. These journals did not want liberal elements to be on their guard against a growing op- Today's Average Ho Than the Pa WASHING days were few and far between in the days of the Tudors and Stuart's in England. The cloth "would not stand the wash" and dyeing covered a multitude of sins. When clothing was laundered, it was sometimes done in a most unsanitary fashion. In the 15th century, clothes were washed in the common wells of the town—the same wells from which water was drawn for drinking and cooking purposes. Another method was to dump the articles in a tub or "buck-pan." Women would then tuck up their dresses and dance upon the clothes to "beat out the impurities." The royal laundered under Henry VIII was ordered to procure enough "sweet powder, sweet herbs, and other sweet things" to insure the "sweet keeping" of the King's linen.

To the unbelievers The Gazette suggests that they re-examine the recent Boston address of Donald R. Richberg, chief of the NRA. Mr. Richberg viciously stormed against the efforts of organized labor to make headway against oppression, clothing his biased remarks in a false cloak of impartiality. If a reading of the Richberg address is not sufficiently convincing, we would recommend several articles in the December Crisis. One is "The Maid-Well Garment Case," by John P. Davis, which depicts the discrimination against our workers in spite of the new codes. Then let the reader study the first article in the same issue, "Fascism and the Negro," by Harold Preece. We urge our readers to go thru this essay at least twice. Study it in connection with the refusal of the attorney-general of the United States to delve into the recent Marianna, Florida, Clarence Neal lynch-murder atrocity, and no careful student will be able to deny that so far as Afro-America is concerned, Fascism is well on its way. A "puppet-show" was given at St Clair school, recently, with colored and white youngsters participating as usual. When a Cleveland Daily News photographer arrived to take pictures of the leading characters, a white child was substituted for one of our youngsters, the only one in the group, apparently to please the Cleveland News or its representative, or hot. The Gazette wants the facts of the local city public company, owner of The Cleveland News and The Cleveland Plain Dealer, The 75,000 Afro-Americans in Cleveland want to know, too.

Is Hitler fascism condoned by the Forest City Publishing Company, owner of The Cleveland News and The Cleveland Plain Dealer? It would seem so.

But film realism in this respect had to be sacrificed to the patrons' sense of the aesthetic. As a matter of fact, 9,000,000 housewives in the United States alone are better off in this respect than were the royalty of Henry's times. Using their household washing machines they have spick-and-span clothing and linens as often as they please, and at a minimum of cost and effort. Those who sigh for the "good old days" probably do so because they are not fully acquainted with the drawbacks and handicaps to better living that existed in those loned-for times.

Illinois, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws. In 1900, the state of Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years.

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, be 'ing the proprietor or his employee, keeper eating house, restaurant eating house, barber-whore 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, more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty days 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 in our people will not use it as often as they would in any other case to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. 1930 REFRESHING RELIEF OF CONSTIPATION Avoid constipation! If you disregard its warning and neglect to treat it promptly, look out for sickness! You cannot hope to have good health if you do nothing to prevent or to relieve constipation. Some of its disturbing effects may be — Bilious attacks, poor appetite, bad taste in the mouth, dizziness, bad breath, coated eyes, bloating of the abdomen, before the eyes, bloating of the abdomen, before the eyes, gas, uneasiness, physical and mental sluggishness, etc. Need a medicine for constipation, you won't find a better laxative than a NATURAL medicine, like THEFORDPS BLACK-DRAUGHT, made out of the leaves and roots of certain highly approved medicinal plants. Black-Draught costs less than most laxative medicines, so you can afford to keep it and take it when needed. If you are feeling bad, like you might be feeling sick, take a dose tonight and feel better tomorrow. Sold in 35-cent packages. British Peewee Yachts Lead Field, Ohio Champion Says ALTHOUGH unable to wrest the international yacht racing trophy from hardy American seamen, who have held it for 83 years, the British are out in front when it comes to model yacht competition. Despite the recent defeat off Newport of the English challenger, Endeavour, by Harold S. Vanderbilt's Rainbow, John Bull's model yachts, from which the larger sloops are built, still maintain undisputed supremacy of the seas, according to Arthur Beecher of Cleveland, five times an Ohio model yacht racing champion. Small But Swift It is a curious fact, Beecher says, that the British consistently win the model races and equally consistently lose races in which their counterparts participate. Every large racing yacht has a model from which it was built, he says. These miniature sloops are used to test the speed and seaworthiness of various designs. Beecher designed and built a replica of the British contender, Endeavour, and raced it in the national model yacht meet at Grand Rapids. Beecher, who is emple Ohio Bell Telephone Co is commodore of the Model Yacht Club.

In order to be in close touch with his key men, President Roosevelt has had private tele- phone lines installed from his desk to the desks of each of his administrators. Only calls from the White House are received over these Hines, so that the President may be in instant communication with his department heads and advisors whenever he desires. The county grand jury, Monday, had before it the traffic “‘manslaugh- ter case which stirred up a hornet’s nest’ in the police department, last week. It is the case in which Peter DeGreen, age 52, of 6820 Berwick Ra., is “charged with killing Mrs. Louise Brown, a widow with four small children, who was struck by his automobile at EB, Sist St. and Kinsman Rd. Nov. 21, while“he was driving it at a high rate of speed. Sergeant Cornelius Sullivan of the manslaughter squad, who said poli- ticians’ influence, in the case, had been brought to bear on his super- iors to “ease” DeGreen out of the matter, was among the witnesses called before the grand jury. Har- old T. Gassaway was appointed ad- ministrator of Mrs, Brown's estate and Alexander H. Martin, attorney. Our people of this community are depending on them not only to start a damage suit against DeGreen but to see that he is prosecuted to the limit of the law now. As far as we have been able to learn, to date, the killing of Mrs. Brown ‘seems to be absolutely inexcusable, Sergeant Sul- livan produced two witnesses (and said he could get others) who saw DeGreen’s car hit Mrs, Brown and helped to pick her up. ‘DeGreen said at first that no one saw the killing but later on, after the two witnesses were produced, admitted he was wrong in making that statement. “Step on the gas,” Messrs, Gassa- way and Martin—with tho help of chicken or duck.

IN RUMANIA, east and west are so intertwined that it is difficult to determine where one leaves off and the other begins. Some historians attribute the strange blending of the Orient and the Occlident within the Rumanian borders to countless invasions. Each invader, whether Roman, Hun, or Turk, left his strong imprint on the nature of the people. Though Paris may be France, Bucharest is hardly Rumania. This capital has almost nothing in common with the country. It is a gay, cosmopolitan city, often, if not aptly, called the Little Paris of the Balkans. Its streets are crowded with smartly dressed women, officers resplendent in their colorful uniforms and gold braid, and men and women of the foreign colonies, who contrast strikingly with peasants in native dresses and gyrpsies in rags and tatters. Its restaurants and coffee houses, always famous for good food, are abuzz with the latest political rumors and gossip. The opening. in the autumn, of parliament by the king is a brilliant event. For several blocks and for hours the palace guards in their bright uniforms, high patent leather jack boots, shining helmets with white horsehair plumes, stand smartly at attention until the members of parliament, the diplomatic corps, the army generals, and the king have passed. The great moments are the arrival and the departure of the king, in an open landeau. Footmen in satin breeches, long coats of brocade, and three-cornered hats, and a ferocious coachman cracking his whip at six milk-white or coal-black stallions, on whose hacks ride postilions in bright red hunting costumes, add to the striking medieval picture. Sleighride in Bucharest It is fun in winter to hire an open sleigh drawn by horses bedecked with bells and red ribbons, and driven by a coachman in a high fur cacchia (cachoula), a tall astrakhan cap, long velvet coat, and wide girdle of metal. There are still a few coachmen living in Bucharest who belong to a curious另 sect called Scopiti, now almost extinct. The men were allowed to marry, but at the birth of the first child they were made sterile. One sees them often driving open carriages. They are fat and their skin is like yellow parchment. The wide avenue leading up to the Arc de Triomphe, a pretty little race course and the golf links of the Country club, is a miniature suggestion of the Champs Elysees in the French capital. Many stately palaces and homes line its streets. Rumania has gone modern in her new houses and apartments. There is much music other than in the cafes. Bucharest boasts of rather good opera during the winter and a really fine symphony orchestra plays modern music. The National temple is well patronized and plays by Romanian and foreign authors are given. Once ornate, the building is now shabby, although an air of faded elegance still pervades the place. The parliament buildings and the Romanian Orthodox church stand on the summit of the only hill in Bucharest. Bucharest is a city of churches. From everywhere can be seen rising the rounded domes of the Romanian Orthodox church. The people are religious, but matter-of-fact about it. Despite the Slavic influence, there is no mysticism here. Religion is simply a part of everyday life. The church is like a protective father, and they respond with simple faith. Down by the banks of the Dambovita, which Eddie Cantor made famous in one of his songs, is the great market, where flowers, fruit, food, household goods, and Rumanian handiworks are sold in the open booths of peasants and petty tradespeople. Because so many peasants are unable to read, signs on many stores and shops are illustrated with pictures of the articles for sale within. Among the Peasants. Around Bucharest the country is not unlike the agricultural state of Kansas. Here is a tremendous wheat and corn region. Visitors enjoy going through the villages in this fertile district. Crazy little Rube Goldberg houses, whose white-washed walls are painted in soft pastel shades and decorated with borders of flowers or animals, present an amusingly shaky aspect along the streets. Rumania is one of the few countries now left in Europe whose peasants usually dress in native costume. The Rumanian peasant is lovable. Always gracious, courteous, and good-patted, he is industrious, yet some what indecident. He works hard in his fields and forest, but always in a primitive manner, using the crude tools of his forefathers. Many residents of Bucharest spend their summers in Predeal, at the top of the Carpathian Pass, on the boundary line between the "Old Kingdom" and Transylvania. During their holidays they have many opportunities to observe the ancient methods of work followed by the peasants. One is particularly impressed with the native manner of washing clothes. The laundress builds a fire in the yard beneath a large iron pot, in which she puts the clothes to boil. Then, in a large wooden trough hewn from a log, she rubs and washes the garments with her hands, without even the aid of a washboard. Next, she wrings out the heavy linen with her own hands. Back-breaking work it is, but the clothes emerge spotlessly white. Gypsies Are Numerous. In the Danube Delta country, during the spring and summer, many gypsy camps are found. The gypsies carve out of wood huge water troughs, all variety and manner of cooking utensils, washing equipment, etc. With their wild animal eyes, scraggly black locks, wretched dirty, and clad in rags, gypsies are a proof of the disillusionment of reality. Who has not conjured up some gay, romantic picture of gypsy life from afar? Yet how distressing when one meets it at close quarters! But gypsy music is beautiful. Almost at every street corner in Bucharest one encounters an urchin with his violin, ready to play for a few lel. Winters in Bucharest are bitterly cold. Often one is distressed to see gypsy boys, half naked and shivering, begging at the street corners. The delta country covers a tremendous area spreading between the three branches of the Danube. Most important of Danube channels is the Sulina, which carries most of the river traffic coming down from far-off Germany, Austria, Hungary, Jugoslavia, and Czechoslovakia. The European commission of the Danube, which assures free navigation of the river, struggles constantly to keep the silt, washed down from half of Europe, from clogging up this artery to the Black sea. On the Danube's banks are two important ports, Galati and Bralla, which receive vessels of ocean draft. Principal exports are wheat, corn, barley, lumber and some oil. Valcov Is Interesting. Valcor, Rumania, is more Russian than Russia. The men all wear full beards and are dressed in long velvet coats buttoned very smartly up the front, while the women in their full skirts and heads covered with bright scarfs, make a gay picture. Children are everywhere chewing sunflower seeds, the Russian substitute for gum and peanuts. Valcor is like a tiny Venice, with its canals serving as main thoroughfares through the town. Both in the fishermen's houses and in the market places, the traveler always finds at least one lovely ikon. Entering first an immense storage building, one sees where the fish are cleaned, sorted, packed in ice for shipment to Bucharest and other consuming centers, and smoked or salted for export. There is a great variety of salt-and-fresh-water fish, including some strange Danubian species. At the back of the storage house is a deep cave topped by an earthen mound, where hundreds of tons of ice, cut from the river and canals in winter, are stored against the summer heat. Crossing the main canal by an arched wooden bridge, which recalls the Rialto, the travel arrives at the large open market. Here the fishermen bring their daily catch to be sold under the supervision of the state fisheries. They go out in groups of five or six to each sturdy boat made water tight and blackened by tar. The boats set out in time to reach the fishing grounds by daylight; the fishermen say, they must catch the wary sturgeon, while she is still asleep. The fishing ground varies with the seasons; sometimes it is the Black sea and sometimes the Danube and the channels of the delta, where the sturgeon come to spawn. The boats return about noon, are unloaded, the fish weighed, and the caviar extracted. The sturgeon are put up for auction and the buyers must be very expert to judge the amount of caviar in the fish before it is opened. These were the most famous and richest of Russia caviar fisheries before Bessarabia became a component part of Rumania in 1918. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1934. Furs Are Gorgeous This Winter By CHERIE NICHOLAS NO MATTER how lavishly a coat or a suit or a dress be trimmed with fur this season, according to the present ways of fashion, it is not too lavishly furred. The same is true of the new separate fur pieces and NO MATTER how lavishly a coat or a suit or a dress be trimmed with fur this season, according to the present ways of fashion, it is not too lavishly furred. The same is true of the new separate fur pieces and "sets" which include muffs, the more sumptuous and the more spectacular the better do they interpret th The big theme among furriers this season is capes—capes that are made of furs so gorgeous and grand they look worth a king's ransom. To illustrate, see the cape centered in the picture. This luxurious silver fox cape is semi-circular in shape, fastens on the left shoulder and has four tails falling to the back. The beauty of capes such as this is that they can be worn with different costumes, imparting an air of distinction wherever they go. Of course, we do not have to call attention to the attractive evening gloves which this lady is wearing, for no doubt they registered at first glance. They are of white suede, shirred in an openwork pattern as you see. The separate cape theme is by no means confined to evening fashions; on the contrary, the newest thing going in the way of a fur piece is the fur cape which can be worn with either the cloth coat or the dress, if you prefer, which is made of a wintry good-looking woolen. The idea is conveyed in the stunning outfit to the right in the group. Here is something practical and smart. The color of this super Russian lynx which forms the cape, blends in with the tone of the cloth to perfection. A particularly likeable feature of this handsome cape is that while it is really a separate piece, it looks as if it were really an applied trimming. When you stop to think of it, what a worthwhile possession a separate fur cape such as this is—wear it with anything, dress, coat or NEW HIGH TURBANS By CHERIE NICHOLAS A Hats have gone frankly Russian. Here is one of the high turbans which is distinctly of Russian influence. It is fashioned of black hatters' plush. Not only have hats gone Russian, but costumes in the winter mode bespeak this influence in no uncertain terms. In every collection there is a predominance of Cossack tunies, Cossack turbans, wide-beaked Russian effects, high military-looking collars and fur borderings galore. Neckwear 14 Feminine There is a revival in delicate, truly feminine neckwear. Very smart are the new styles in sheer chiffon, combined with lace and trimmed with metal thread stitching, especially in feather stitching. suit. This young woman's hat, if you are wanting to know, is a brown anteelope felt trimmed with leather. The most important bit of news in regard to this hat is that it has an embossed monogram at one side of the crown just over the right eye. It is monogrammed because the fashionable thing to do is to monogram most everything this season. Mademoiselle sitting so placcidly in the picture has on one of those sleek, patriotic looking full-length gray kidskin coats which are so beautifully slenderizing. The model shown has a double sailor collar (turn it up or down) which is youthful in line and exceedingly flattering. The sleeves are below the elbow, which is a characteristic feature of many of the newest coats. The black felt sombrero is edged and banded with black wool. If you are having a suit tailored, let it reflect Russian inspiration in that its tunic-like coat be bordered with fur all around, even up the front or sidefront fastening. There should be an upstanding collar fencing the throat. A cossack turban of matching fur with a muff of the same are essential to complete the picture. The three-quarter coat, all of fur, with wide belt across the front and full peasant sleeves, is also a favorite. Other fur style notes point to the return of gray squirrel into favor, also borders of tawny, showy fur around hemlines or bandings of flat furts such as caracol or nutria. A black cloth cossack outfit with bandings, tall turban and muff of black caracul, is chic THREE NEW GOWNS NOVEL TO EXTREME Three dresses Parisiennes like: One from Mirande called "Pour Plaine," which, interpreted, means "to please," and it should, for it is a dinner frock in black velvet with the lower portion of the bulbous sleeves made of bright blue velvet. It has a belt of the bright blue velvet, too, and the seckline is shaped something like a stirrup, round in the back and squared off in the front. The second model is by Rosevienne and named "Satinico," after the novel new fabric of which it is made, com- bining satin with a mat surface. It is an afternoon dress of flame-colored satin combined with incrusted diagonal bands of the reverse side of the satin which is mat. The third item is from Irnone, who has called it "Cros." It is a coat in brown wool trimmed with frosted brown lamb as collar and cuffs. Both collar and cuffs are small and discreet, and the coat has a tailored look about it at first glance, but on second glance you see it is also a semi-dress coat. Trains Will Be in Vogue This Winter, Says Paris Trains will be in vogue this winter. Some have a long panel that starts at the waistline at the back; others feature a Watteau pleat or court mantle effect at the back. Worth shows trains with a long flared volant that develops from the back of the dress. Maggy Rouff has very formal dresses with a wing effect that is used for a train. Augustenbärn obtains effects by several shirred volants that are continued down to the ground in irregular effects.
