XENIA—Geo. I. Gaines, veteran mail-carrier of more than 28 years' service, and a prominent member of the Odd Fellows, died at Epsey Hospital, Saturday evening. He was a native of Cincinnati and a son of Mr. and Mrs. Irvin Gaines. He spent the greater part of his life in this city, graduating from E. High School in 1896. Mr. Gaines began as a sub-mail-carrier here, Feb. 1, 1901, and became a regular, May 1, 1907. He was a member of Zion Baptist church for 41 years, a former church trustee and at the time of his death, S. S. sup't. He was president of the East S. W. Association and the East End W. Association. Mr. Gaines married Miss Mamie Harris of this city in 1902, and leaves a widow, mother, half brother, a son and five daughters to mourn his demise. One daughter, Mrs. Ethel Evans, is a resident of Cleveland. Funeral services, Wednesday afternoon, from the church. Interment in Cherry Grove cemetery. A Ralph W. Tyler, former manager of Hotel Majestic and deputy U. S. marshal, has been given a foremanship at the garbage plant and credited to Ward 17. It is said that Count Olman Bundo, also the leader of the ward, has more garbage plant app pointments to his credit than Count olmen Hubbard, Payne and Finkle Tyler, it is said, was not active in the last mayoralty campaign. When the history of Rev. D. O Walker's opposition to the Bryant gasoline station, at E. 85th St. and Cedar Ave., is written, it will include the unfair and unjust arrest of Mr. Bryant on a charge urged. it is said, that Bryant is not the leader of the church. It does seem to The Rounder that it is about time for the leading members of that church, who want to be fair and just, to intervene in Mr. Bryant's behalf. This, of course, providing the church is not the leader of the Bryant gasoline station. It looks very much as if the whole thing is a personal matter and not one in which the church is involved. If so, why? Doings of the Race Atty, Noah W. Parden of St. Louis has just been appointed an assistant city prosecutor. Noble Sissle's band is one of the three playing in the newly opened Casino de Paree on Broadway, N. Y. City. Mrs. Maggie L.

Municipal court, N. Y. City, last week awarded three members of the race each $200 damages for refusal of service in the Alice McCollister restaurant, 43 W. 8th St., that city. ILD attorneys will have charge of the Scottsboro cases (Heywood Patterson and Clarence Norris) when they are reviewed by the U. S. supreme court, next month. Josephine Baker, the Afro-American can singer and dancer so popular in Paris, France, since 1926, recently played the star part in Offenbach's operetta, "Creole." Edward Gordon, 1932 Olympic broad jump champion, has re-entered Iowa College and hopes to be a member of the American Olympic team in 1936. Wm. H. Steward, age 87, for more than fifty years editor of the Louisville, Ky., American Baptist, died last week Thursday, after more than a year's illness.

The Olszewska-Melchior concert will be an outstanding event of the early season, bringing the great tenor of the Metropolitan Opera that conductor of all Europe" and now also of the Metropolitan Opera Company, in a joint concert of double value. It will also be given under the direction of Mrs. Brudno. LIBERATOR OF 1842 AT ATLANTA LIBRARY Atlanta, Georgia.—Atlanta University Library has just received as a gift from Oswald Garrison Villard, a copy of The Liberator of May 27, 1842. Mr. Villard is a grandson of the great abolitionist, William Lloyd Garrison, the high-minded idealist who provided the chief impetus of the abolition movement. Garrison's importance as a dominating figure in starting the campaign against slavery is conceded by historians. The Liberator, the mouthpiece of the Abolition movement and of the more intelligent colored people, was first published on January 1, 1831, just one hundred and four years ago. This is one of the three notable history books of the anti-slavery controversy. The author of the Liberator contained an "Address to the Public" which sounded the keynote of Garrison's career: "I shall contend for the immediate enfranchisement of our slave population—I will be as harsh as truth and as uncompromising as justice on the subject—I do not wish to think, or speak, or write with moderation—I am in earnest—I will not equivocate I will will provide a single inch and I will be heard!" The Liberator was voluntarily discontinued by Garrison in 1865. SIGHT CONSERVATION Fifty-Two Cities Following Cleveland's Lead—60,000 People in This County Reached—Sight Saying Council Doing Splendid Work. Fifty-two American cities are following the lead of Cleveland in studying modern methods of eye protection and are organizing Sight Saving Councils patterned after the newly-formed Sight Saving Council in Cuyahoga County. People in Cuyahoga County have heard speakers of the Sight Saving Council, at meetings in churches, schools, luncheon clubs and social gatherings, directed by William Ganson Rose, Rose has also spoken in many nearby cities. The work of the Sight Saving Council has been endorsed by the Academy of Medicine of Cleveland and Ophthalmological Club of Cleveland President Franklin D. Roosevelt can thank Cleveland for the new lighting fixtures and the new lamps in the re-modeled White House offices, for he called Matthew Luckisch to Washington to direct the plans for the new lighting system in the building. On the President's desk now stands a model in bronze much like the little study and reading lamp which was developed by Professor Henry B. Dates of Case School and given to the nation as the free gift of science to the sight of the children of our country. It has a 100-watt bulb, proper size for reading. The Council has published two booklets on Sight Saving and each has an addition of 100,000 copies. The number of conservation is dramatically shown by the fact that nearly one-half the population of the country has defective eyes. Of all school boys and school girls under 20, more than 20 per cent have defective eyesight. Of all young men and women being graduated from college, more than 40 per cent have defective eyesight. Of all men and women past 50 years of age, 75 per cent have defective eyesight. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS POLITICAL BUNK ARE THE SENSATIONAL APPEALS FOR RE-ORGANIZATION OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY Not Taken Seriously by the Great Mass of Republicans What the "Grand Old Party" Needs Its Principles, Etc. Pittsburgh, Pa.—Joe's reply to the fans, who booed him, was to hammer Hans Birkie at will until the German heavyweight quit in the tenth and final round, and the referee awarded Joe the verdict, a technical knockout. Louis did not cut loose until the tenth, when he toppled Hans again, and Birkie missed him and 47 seconds' fighting, and the latter called to the referee to halt proceedings. Blood was streaming from his face. This was Louis' 14th straight victory, 11 knockouts, since he turned professional, last July. During the early rounds, the tans yelled "he's carrying him along because Joe never exerted himself until the last round. Birkie missed him, but punches missed fire. Louis weighed 194 1/2 lbs, and Birkie 189 1/2. Five thousand fans paid $7,500 to see the fight. In spite of all the wild stories of annihilation, the sensational appeals for re-organization and the cries of the Democratic newspaper alarmists, the Republican party is still faithfully defending the violation that its principles are right. And Republicans aren't taking all of this "bally-hoo" seriously. They know that it either originates from Democratic propagandists, or personal opportunists who grab at these positions to take the reins themselves. The common feeling that the Republican party was snowed under in a Democratic "landslide" is another ridiculous fallacy. By a careful analysis of the figures we find that the Democratic vote cast for congressional candidates was about 15.– The total Republican vote was about 10. This is a difference of only 3,000,000 votes throughout the entire United States. A change of only 2,000,000 votes would give the Republicans the same kind of a so-called landslide. It just happened that the Democratic votes were pretty evenly distributed and they slipped in only by comparatively narrow margins. The sentiment by 1936, or the failure of "Santa Claus" to "feed the boys" during the next two years could completely reverse the picture. The "Grand Old Party" may need a little "renovising"—a little new blood may be needed among the leaders and a little liberalization may popularize its platform, but fundamentally its principles are absolutely round and right. We will come back—and stronger than ever. While the great mass of the people, in their panicky state and misery, are being swept on their feet and "grabbing at straws," in a popular wave of "isms," the G. O. P. stands on guard like will be here to guide us on when thisad, like all others, passes on and is long forgotten.

Lima, Peru.-Billy Jones of Philadelphia, heavyweight, fought a ten round draw with Irving Klausner of Estonia here, Sunday night. Each weighed 191 pounds. Klausner will fight Carrera in Rio De Janéíco, Jan 26. Carnera Kayoes Harris San Paulo, Brazil—Primo Carneira, former heavyweight champion knocked out Cecil Harris of Los Angeles here, Sunday. Weakening under Carneera's pummeling, he went down for the count shorty after the opening of the seventh round. Harris, who weighed 248 pounds, went down first in the fifth round and then in the sixth. He weighed 263 pounds, 15 lbs., more than Harris, appeared in excellent shape. They Booed Joe Louis. Baer Says "No Color-Line!" BACK NYC City—Max Baer, heavyweight champion, announced here last Friday, that he will fight Louis in September, if the latter continues his brilliant advance. That settles the "color-line" rumors of a number of prejudiced sport writers. Jack Blackburn, former heavyweight de luxe, manager of Louis, will hardly let the latter risk a bout with the champion until he is much more ex-posed. He will come from being the finished product and has plenty to learn before he becomes a suitable opponent for Max Baer 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 comparison with any will immediately establish the best AND BEST published in this section of the country in the interest of Afro-Americans.

We were the most worthless and obsolete, so quickly. D. RAYMOND J. JEFFREYS We grew powerful, rich and great under the leadership of the Republican party. Our laboring people lived on a higher scale and enjoyed more luxuries than any other race that ever lived on earth. Intelligent, sound-thinking people aren't deserting their common sense just because "Santa Claus" is feeding the populace and luring the votes, during the "election holidays." Raymond J. Jeffreys. Speaking of Joe, Danny Dunn of this city, a former fighter and for years a trainer of boxers, his best known product being Johnny Risko, says: "Say, there's the greatest young heavyweight fighter that anybody has seen in a long, long time. And it won't be such a long, long time before he's ready to make a swell fight with Baer, himself. Yes, sir, that Joe Louis could wade thru most of what's left o' them so-called contenders one night after the other. He'd knock that Levinsky kickin' ina the next county, and he'd knock Schmeling, too." FOX FILM SPECTACLE. "CARAVAN" BRINGS 3 BIG MUSICAL HITS. The new Fox Film musical spectacle, "Caravan," next week at the Quincy Theatre, introduces three gay song hits which already are gaining tremendous popularity throut the country. The score was especially written for the picture by Werner Richard Heymann, brot to Hollywood from Vienna for this assignment. Three musical numbers are featured: the romantic "Wine Song," performed both vocally and on the violin by Charles Boyer, continental star of "Caravan"; a bubbling and sprightly dance by the Cha-Ga and a high-spirited number called "I Am Happy." Other melodies were composed by Heymann to point the action of this romantic comedy, but these three are the outstanding tunes. Erik Charell, famous European director, has used incidental music throut. In addition to Boyer, the cast of "Caravan" is headed by Loretta Young and Jean Parker. SPURNS LOVER AT 130. Yugoslav Woman Dies Old Maid; Designing Suitor Was Young Russian. Zvorik, Yugoslavia.—Ajka Pemba Omerovich, who spurned romance at the age of 130, died, recently, an old maid. Her neighbors vouched for her age, asserting it was established by parish records. They also related that in the last three years of her life, she was ardently courted by a young Russian who wanted to marry her and exhibit her on a world tour as "the world's oldest woman." But Ajka scorned his suit. She died after collapsing while carrying buckets of water from the River Drina.

SATURDAY, JAN. 19, 1935. The N. A. A. C. P. complains bit- terly because sixty-four out of sixty- five “Negro” college-heads ignore its appeal in behalf of the Costigan- Wagner federal anti-lynching bill, As a law, the bill would not amount to much. This fact our “college- heads‘? are undoubtedly familiar with and therefore cannot be blamed much for the position they have ap- parently assumed. . —ii1— PUZZLING. Again the Scottsboro case will be reviewed by the U. 8. Supreme Court. ‘That is unquestionably a victory for the attorneys of the International Labor Defense, While we may not be in sympathy with the economic philosophy which motivates the lead- ers of the ILD, we must be Honest enough to give that organization eredit for putting up a strong fight ‘and overcoming the handicap it sul- fered from the recent questionable course of Atty. Samuel Leibowitz, former chief of defense counsel. What puzzles us is the deliberate ignoring of the case by some of our papers. We cannot understand it. Haye we so many friends that sup- port from almost any source can be ignored? We do not think so, The ILD has boosted the Scottsboro af- fair to the level of a world issue, It should be given full credit for that, ip spite of all vicious attacks. calc ade FOR REV. KLAHR. ‘The Gazette invites the Rev. Her- man A, Klahr of Old Stone Church, this city, to acquaint himself with the details of the Marianna, Fla., lynch-murder and then to initiate an “Anti-lynching Sunday” in the churches of Greater Cleveland. We believe his reverence owes that duty to himself, Having done his best to defeat an effective resolution against the Scottsboro persecutions spov- sored by the association of Prebyter- jan women, Rev, Mr. Klabr ought to be anxious to redeem his destroyed Feputation as “a great friend of the downtrodden.” We suggest to Mr. Klahr that he send five or ten dol- lars to the N. A. A. C. P., 69 Fifth Ave., New York City, asking for as many copies of its report of the ‘Marianna lynching as his money will buy. While his delicate stomach may be turned by the horrible details, he may be compensated by discover- ing a spark of original, militant Christianity in his conscience, FASCISM HERS AND THERE. Italy has received France's bless- ing. Mussolini and his gangster as- sociates will be permitted to destroy the independence of Abyssinia and Paris will not object. The only coun- try in Africa with any real claim to Independence is going to be smashed because Italian Fascism must create a diversion to keep the minds of the people from considering their star- vation. That is Fascism in action, brutal, bloody, vicious. That is Fas- ism abroad. ‘The Twelfth Ward Democratic club held an orderly meeting recently, and Dr. L. L. Rodgers brot up the issue of Italy's treatment of Abyssinia. Had Dr, Rodgers been speaking be- fore the City Club of Cleveland no police Would have interfered with him. But Dr, Rodgers was talking to a political group. He was not speaking before a prominent lunch- on club, And he Was raising an im portant issue for ttz moment, and not concerning himself with some in- significant local political issue. So Clevelanid’s police officials had to ‘enter the scene. That is Fascism in Cleveland and it reveals exactly what certain loca! individuals want our own voters to become—mere dupes of some political boss. ‘We hope Dr. Rodgers will raise the Abyssinia Issue again. He might ‘ask the Italian consul of Cleveland for an explanation, or still better, thru proper political channels, ask the “Great White Father” (Roose. yelt) of the Democratic party in Washington to make discreet in- quiries of a diplomatic nature, Dr. Rodgers is getting a splenaia| lesson in the activities of Fascism, in Italy and in Cleveland, Ohio, We hope that he and his associates of the Twelfth Ward Democratic club will profit by the education, —— i) — GOOD PUBLICITY. ‘The national office of the N, A. A. C. P. has issued a powerful anti- lynching document in the form of a pamphlet depicting the true story of the Claude Neal torture in Marianna, Florida, some weeks ago. If one million copies of this document could find its way into the hands of one million enlightened citizens of the world, the battle against lynch-mur- der would be half won. We hope that the national office of the N. A. A. C. P. will send copies of this im- portant exposure of lynching to every corner of the world. We trust they will do this, in spite of the ad- vice which may be offered by the N. A. A. C. P. “old guard,” consisting of Joel and Arthur Spingarn, and Miss Mary White Ovington. In nam- ing the foregoing we are not select- ing individuals at random, but mere- iy repeating the list which was given publicity by Miss Martha Gruening, attorney and erstwhile stanch adher- ent of the N, A. A. C. P., in her dam- aging “New Masses” article on the George Crawford case, wherein the N. A. A.C. P. secured for an ap- parently innocent man the “joys” of a double life-sentence. We believe that the younger men in the N. A. A. C. P. realize only too well the necessity for a change of tactics, The way for them to begin effecting a transformation is to advertise the Claude Neal lynching document to the four corners of the earth, Cham- pioning the defective and weak Cos- tigan-Wagner anti-lynching bill is mot enough. The N. A. A. C. P, offi- cialdom, overloaded with lawyers, has long had entirely too much re- spect for legal processes, and has given too little consideration to the power of organized world public opinion, With its Claude Neal doc- ument, there ix nothing in the way of the N. A. A.C. P. making a ten- strike for the abolition of lyneh- murder except its own tiimidity. HOLIDAY ECHOES.

OHIO GAINS 18,000 Bell Company Shows First Yearly Increase Since 1930 ‘Showing a yearly gain for the first time in four years, The Ohio Bell Telephone Company added approxi- mately 18,000 telephones throughout the state during 1934. Prospects for 1935 are a little better, according to company officials. The upturn in telephone installa tions started in August, 1933, and thas been maintained since that time, except for small seasonal losses. De- spite gains in the last five months of 1933, there was a loss of 40,000 for that year as a whole because of heavy losses during the first seven months, 13 Per Cent Recovery During 1934, however, there were consistent gains throughout the year. ‘Telephones were added in every month except in June and July, which nor- mally are affected by seasonal trends. ‘Although the pickup is encouraging, the company stilt has a long way to go to, recover the losses suffered dur- ing the past few years, officials state. ‘From the peak development in April, 1930, to the low point in July. 1933. the Ohio Bell lost more than 196,000 telephones. The gains made in the last five months of 1933 and in 1934 represent the recovery of about 13 per ‘ceat el this ons, WEIGHT IN GOLD"! Cleveland, 0., Aug. 25, 1932. Mon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette, Dear Friend:—tI have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, T 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 would say, like two Me- Nells, 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 trae friend of our class, Long lite to you and “The Old Reliable” Gazette.

The cost of a three-minute conversation from any point in Ohio is $36.

Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.-WNU Service. that does not show the e least one tree. Every 20 To the ant the cornstalks are as high as the California Big Trees are to a man gazing at their distant tops. But it is their astounding age, as well as their size and beauty, which fills the soul of puny man with awe and reverence for the Creator. Big Trees, stout and healthy today, were centuries old when Christ was born. Men call them "the oldest living things." So nearly indestructible are they that some naked, fire-scored trunks still stand, though dead before America was discovered; others, which fell centuries ago, remain sound and solid inside. Such vitality has the Sequoia that when felled its branches do not wither for years. One giant crashed in 1926. In 1931 its foliage was still fresh and green. They link us with the past. Their Sequila forebears grew here when the world was younger, when reptiles grew to enormous size. Such mammoths as the dinosaur, unable to adjust themselves to climatic and other changes, faded from the earth; but the Sequila family endured and saw the rise of the mammals. Yet today, when you walk beneath these towering tree giants, you feel that the deer and the squirrel hardly fit into a scene set for the brontosaurus and the pterodactyl. Time was when the Sequila genus was spread over four continents. At least twelve fossil species are known, scattered from Greenland and across Europe to Asia. Big Trees and Redwoods Differ. Some people confuse California's Redwoods with its so-called "Big Trees." Both are "big" and both are of the genus Sequoia; both have pins or red wood and both are trees of the largest size. But they are two species, distinct in habitat, in bark, foliage, and in reproduction. The Coast Redwood, or Sequoia sempervirens, is found only near the coast or within the belt of sea fogs, and extends from southern Oregon down to Monterey county, in California. The larger species, the California Big Tree, or Sequoia gigantea, is confined to the western slopes of the Sierra Nevada, between 4,000 and 5,500 feet elevation, from Placer county, in the north, to Tulare county, in the south, and is much more abundant in the south than in the north. The Coast Redwood forms an almost continuous forest in which it is the dominant stand; the Big Trees grow in scattered groves, 71 in all, interspersed among the heavier stands of white fir, sugar pine, and other trees. Though smaller in diameter and bulk, the Coast Redwood is taller than its cousin, the Big Tree. The former attains a maximum height of 363 feet and a maximum base diameter of about 35 feet. When the Coast Redwood is cut down, it "stump-sprouts," as foresters say. A ring of young trees springs up around the stump of the slaughtered sempervirens; hence its Latin name, the "Ever-living Sequoia." But the Big Tree reproduces only from seed; and, since its seeds require specially favorable conditions to root, there was real danger of the extinction of the species until national and state parks were created. The foliage of the Coast Redwood somewhat resembles that of the fir or hemlock, but the slender, prickly foliage of the Big Tree has no counterpart in America. The only tree which at first glance might be confused with the Big Tree is the cryptomeria of Japan. Survived Ice and Fire. Ages before man came to chop these trees for his use, ice and fire were their fierce foes. Again and again moving glaciers mowed them down—glaciers whose icy fingers stretched down mountain canyons to freeze all animal and plant life. Whether in warm and sheltered spots a few trees remained, or whether only seeds survived, can probably never be known; but slowly the cold hands relaxed and the forests returned. The fact that the Big Trees are more abundant and larger in the southern part of their range indicates that there the effects of the glacier were less severe. With the passing of the Age of Ice, the struggles of the sequoias had only begun. Fires followed the ordeal of Ice. The abundant rains ceased, and long, dry summers rendered the forests tinderlike, ready to be ignited by lightning or by brands tossed by Indians to drive out game or clear land for forage. There is scarcely a mature sequoia that does not show the effects of at least one fire. Every 20 or 30 years dames swept through the forest, sometimes licked lumbergily, but with little effect, at the thick, asbestos-like bark; again, where a litter of boughs and fallen logs was piled up against a Big Tree, the fire burned fiercely enough to penetrate the outer cover and into the heart. That is why the great black caverns in the living sequoias are almost always found on the upper side of those standing on a slope. Careful inspection of a Big Tree, even one with an unbroken front of new bark, usually shows unmistakable traces of many fires. Often an arrow-shaped scar runs from the base a hundred feet or more toward the crown. Such blemishes, covered by new bark, were caused by fires long before the discovery of America. For centuries the tree grew new bark, at the rate of half an inch or less a year, until finally the wound was healed. Tree torches burning in the Sierra Nevada might have signalized every event in recorded human history, from the burning of the Pyramids to our White Men Slow to Find Them. No doubt the Coast Redwoods were seen by the first Europeans to visit our Pacific coast. Yet for more than two centuries after the visit of Sir Francis Drake, in 1570, white men roamed up and down California apparently without out climbing far enough up the high Sierrares to find the Big Trees. The Indians knew them, of course. In summer they camped among them and left pol holes in granite rocks where they ground acorn meal. Even now the identity of the first white men to gaze on the Big Trees of the Sierrares is in doubt. It may have been some member of the Joseph R. Walker expedition of 1833. One Zenas Leonard, clerk of the Walker party, recorded: "In the last two days' traveling we have found some trees of the Redwood species incredibly large, some of them which would measure from 16 to 18 fathoms (96 to 108 feet) around the trunk at the height of a large man's head from the ground." That group of Big Trees, now known as the Calaveras North Grove, was, however, the first of these sequoias to become well known. John Bidwell, a member of the first immigrant party to enter California by the overland route, stated that he saw the Calaveras Big Trees in 1841; but Dowd is popularly given credit as the discoverer of the Sequoia gigantea. It was the Calaveras Grove which inspired Bret Harte to write his poem, "On a Cone of the Big Trees." In 1857 Galen Clark discovered the Mariposa, or Wawona, Grove in what is now the Yosemite National Park. The following year Hale D. Tharp, a pioneer of Three Rivers, in Tulare county, was led up the Middle Fork of the Kawaeh river by Yokut Indians, and on up the grassy slopes beneath Moro Rock to the plateau where grows the noblest forest of the Sequoia gigantea, the Giant Forest, in what is now Sequoia National park. "General Sherman" the Biggest Here, in Sequoia National park, stands that boary veteran of all Big Trees, the "General Sherman," found and named by James Wolverton in 1879. Many other trees, including Redwoods, Douglas firs, and the Australian eucalyptus, are taller; but no other, so far as one knows, has its bulk. Its greatest base diameter is 36.5 feet and its trunk contains 600,120 board feet of lumber. You can imagine its size when told that a train of 30 railway cars would be required to haul its trunk alone. One limb, 130 feet above the ground, is nearly seven feet thick. Sawed into boards, the tree would build about 40 five-room houses! To save some of these trees, the Sequoia National park was created in 1800, and for years patrolled each summer by United States cavalry. Private individuals, however, still owned the finest parts of the sequoia forests and had, of course, a perfect right to cut them down for lumber. To avoid this, the late Stephen T. Mather, as director of the National Park service, asked congress for funds with which to buy and save more of the Big Trees. An appropriation was made, but it was insufficient. Then aid was asked of the National Geographic society. Immediately, from its own funds and with voluntary contributions from individual members, it subscribed sufficient money to purchase the lands and Big Trees desired. In all, the society bought and gave to the United States a total of 1,916 acres at a cost of $93,230. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY. JAN. 19. 1935. FUR ON EVERYTHING, FASHION'S DICTUM Latest Articles to Succumb Are Suede Gloves. We're all fur-bearing animals this winter. If the rage for fur on everything keeps on, it's going to be hard on the poor little squirrels and rabbits, minims and beavers who had planned to live to a ripe old age. They've put fur on everything but step-ins now, and there's no telling when that will happen. The latest fur-trimmed articles to make their how in the shops are gloves—heavy, hand-sown snede gloves in dark brown or black with huge gauntlets of galyak or leopard cat. The effect is even the more striking when there is a little tied collar and a Cossack turban to match. You may buy the sets—gloves, collar and turban—and dress up a plain tweed suit or coat so you'd never recognize it. Consider, for instance, the swish that might be added to a plain tailored green tweed suit by a leopard collar that ties in a pussycut bow under the chin, a little leopard cap and a pair of gloves with deep leopard gauntlets that reach almost to the elbows. Or the same thing in black galyak would do wonders for a gray or red costume, or even a black one. ERMINE TRIM By CHERIE NICHOLAS 1 This swagger knee-length coat is of black lynes velvet. The fact that it buttons severely on one shoulder bepeaks a last-minute styling. So many of the new wraps fasten in novel ways. The jeweled clip at the neckline adds greatly to its chic. Ermine from the elbow on the flaring sleeves is an outstanding and significant feature, for to trim with white fur this season is to be highly style-minded. Nor is this vogue for white ermine or white galyan trim confined to formal night fashions. One of the most stunning afternoon costumes on the present season's style program is a short jacket and skirt suit of superblack velvet which has a scarf-collar of white ermine with a big white fur muff to match. The vogue for black and white which is more insistent than ever is also reflected in the smart afternoon one-piece dress either of black crème, broadcloth or duvetown which is tailored with utmost simplicity, a white ermine trim, perhaps a bow, perhaps collar and cuffs of the fur giving it an enlivening touch. Outfits of Five Shades Unset Old Color Schemes Upset Old Color Schemes Instead of the old two-color idea, couturiers are showing outfits that include three, four, and even five shades. One famous American designer makes a handsome three-piece suit of dark blue skirt, bright red jersey blouse, pale blue sweater, and top coat of tweed in subtle tones of gray, blue and red. Another costume has a pale gold woolen dress, brown swagger coat and a huge silk scarf of vivid blue silk. The hat to wear with it is blue, too, and is trimmed with a bright quill in red and gold.

By CHERIE NICHOLAS According to fashion's ultimatum "after five," you are not dressed up to the mark unless a vognish little dinner or cocktail hat surmounts your smartly coiffed head. The chic and orate dinner hats that millinery are so bushy creating this season, are simply irresistible. No beauty-loving style-minded member of the fair sex can fail to respond to the lure of these devastating bits of headgear. The most flattering dressy hats are little cups of sequins, some in gold, some in silver, black ones, too, that sparkle for all they are worth. The vells to go with them are just too cunning for words. The moment you see it you will be wanting one of the new medallion vells. Next time you go near the velling department, hold one up to your close-fitting toque—you'll love the pretty frivolous touch—it will add to your appearance. To tell the truth, these medallion vells are mostly for "locks." They are round like a plate, have a little litigile of gold or silver thread worked around their edges and in the very center there is a fancy metal medallion. The way to wear one of these vells is to angle it flirtatiously over the right eye and does it look like a litigile of gold or silver form conclusions. A brown net gold-embellished medallion vell worn with a dinner hat, of dusky brown tulle, aye, there's a combination to arouse interest in even the hopelessly blase. The newest to wear with your winter fur coat is a high-crowned toque fashioned of velvet in a high color. L They are the latest—long capes for evening wear. The one at the top in the picture is of red corded silk skirt with gold. Worn fung back over the shoulders it shows a rich black velvet lining. Deep tawny zimna orange is the fuscious color of the longer cape below. The material is transparent velvet reversed with the same velvet as a lining. The yoke and collar of dark Kolinsky tunes admirably to the rich color values in the velvet. Green Is Now Featured in Dresses for Children Green has become a favorite color for children's clothes. There are little coats and tallieurs in dark green woolen trimmed with gray astrakhan or beaver. There is a delightful little ensemble for a ten-to-fifteen-year-old girl in pea-soup green mossy wool, trimmed with tabs of laquered fabrics in black patent. Green sweaters in a tighter shade of wool or knitted acetate material accompany skirts in darker green wool and tartan designs. Jersey and rayon dresses with a woolen appearance are often in vlid green trimmed with beige and for smart occasions, turquoise green and water green are highly sponsored. FLASHES FROM PARIS Fur capes triumph in the mode Vivid color contrasts are stressed. Schiaparelli ties her new bonnet hats under the chin. Chiffon in ice-cream tones is re- vived for evening. Mainbocker uses dark lace on daytime suits and frocks. Leading contoururs use lace or net for their formal evening gowns. Coats by Paton are smartly flared on Cossack lines. Evening Coat Quilted One of the most striking evening coats seen in smart circles this season is of white Ottoman silk, finely quilted with intricate embroidery and cut on severely tailored lines.
