WILBERFORCE. — President Wright, of the university, will speak in Chicago, tomorrow evening, at Grant Memorial A. M. E. church. His subject will be, "Where Do We Go From Here". His audience will include many of our high school students of that city. That event is entertainment is being advertised as "Inspiration Night". — The commencement exercises this year, were more largely attended than for many years. President Wright's report showed splended progress. He is not only an educator but has practical business knowledge. Therefore, better to lure forberection. This time than it has been for many, many years. He has reduced the old university debt nearly $50,000 and increased the student enrollment. YOUNGSTOWN.—Rev. Henry G. Payne, Supt. H. G.

JACKSON ON WHAT'S DOING Anti-administration members of city council, last week Monday, forced an investigation of politically-ridden City hospital. The inquiry will be conducted jointly by council's welfare committee and a committee of six from the hospital's executive board. The meeting, which broke long-time records for disorder, announced the immediate riot of administration councilmen, the vote being 25 to 3. Councilmen Bundy, Michell and Payne were the three who voted against the hospital investigation. A new schedule went into effect, Monday morning, on the E. 30th St. line. Now one must wait 16 minutes for a car. Three cars gave 11-minute time. One has been taken off to save the cost of its crew—one man! That line crosses thru the very heart of the city, in our most thickly populated section. And we have three members of City Council who are the balance of power in that "august" body but don't seem to know it. One man has been given the task to benefit their constituents and the rest of our people of the city, Lord, have mercy! The vision and desire of the 14 young matrons who make up the membership of Club Le-Bun is that the club continue its existence indefinitely, commemorating the gallant leadership of the distinguished gentleman from whom the club was honored in the name Dr. Bundy, councilman and leader of the 17th ward.—Chicago Defender. Selmo Glenmays says "the distinguished gentleman" will be the extinguished "gentleman" when he gets done with him, this fall. So say all of "the $2 a month job-holders" in the 17th ward. How about it? A crowd of about 200 mostly Communists, called on Councilman Bundy at his new home in Hawthorne Ave., one day last week, as a result of the shooting of Ulysses Brown, age 17, in Quincy Ave., earlier in the week, when a mob broke in several store-fronts along the avenue in the vicinity of E. 60th St. Bundy appealed to Acting Mayor Law Director Ezra Shapiro for "a Council investigation of the shooting." Just why Bundy had to appeal to Shapiro is not clear. The latter promised to draft a resolution for Bundy (who fought over the shooting) and also investigate the sending of a member of the race to the workhouse who was charged with being in the mob of 500 and also throwing a brick thru a butcher-shop window in the vicinity. Trayon Tassai, age 25, a restaurant keeper at 6014 Quincy Ave., shot Brown who claims to have been near as a result of curiosity and was not with the boys, outside Tassai. Brown was to have been graduated, last week, from E. Tech. High school. Instead, he was in Charity hospital. He told police he was returning home from a club meeting and was not involved in the trouble that led to the shooting. Tassai was arrested for the shooting and The Rounder is waiting to see what sentence he gets. The Rounder has not sentence he gets. The rounder skypekeepers in that section of the city have been entirely too free with their use of fire-arms when our people were concerned and it is high time this was stopped. Two score police saved Tassai from the mob. After cleaning Tassai from the front, the mob moved eastward and heaved missiles thru a window in a fruit store at 6212 Quincy, two windows in a drug store at 6214 Quincy, and three windows in Ellison's butcher shop. Police arrived in time to prevent Tassai from bodily harm. CUT $46,575.88! Wilberforce University's Old Debt Reduced that Much—Doings of Its Annual Commencement—Democrats Principal Speakers. WILBERFORCE, O. — Approximately 8,000 people attended the 72nd annual commencement, June 13th. It was the largest in many years. Two prominent persons present were Gov. Martin L. Davey, who was honored with the degree, Doctor of Laws, and Congressman Arthur W. Mitchell, (Dem.) of Chicago who delivered the commencement address and was also honored with the same degree. He was awarded degrees and diplomas, LL. D. was given Bishop S. L. Greene of Little Rock, Ark.; Garnet C. Wilkin- MARTIN L DAVEY son, assistant superintendent of schools, Washington, D.

Second Lieutenants, in the officers' Reserve Corps, Inf., were rwarded certificates: Earl Armstrong, Alfred Thurston, Edward Jamison, Harold E. John, John I. Jones, and Kenneth P.elle, Certificates issued (Inf). Beverley H. Heard, Carl L. Marshall. The baccalureate sermon was delivered, Sunday morning, by Bishop Greene. Sunday evening, Rev. Griffen delivered the annual sermon to the graduates of Payne Theological seminary. Joseph S. Decker, Siera Leon, African, was ordained an elder by Bishop Greene; Alexander Matisse Ohio conference, and Theo. W. Claire, American, was ordained deacons by Bishop R. C. Ransom. The high school commencement address was made by Supt. Wilkinson, Monday night. The annual trustee board meeting of the university was held, Tuesday and Wednesday. The annual report was made by President R. R. Wright. It showed the greatest financial gain for a number of years, that all current expenses had been paid with the exception of $3,000, and the old indebtedness cut down, $46,575.88. For the first time in ten years all teachers' salaries for the entire year were shown by the certified public-accountant's audit, the excess of income over expenses for the year, ending April 30, was $28,317.98. The alumni breakfast, Wednesday morning, was attended by 300 former graduates. Introductory remarks were made by W. G. Pearson of Durham, N. C.; Dr. Wright spoke on "The Outlook of Wilberforce University." G. H. Valentine, sec.treas., spoke on "Wilberforce Its Nodes, Future Development"; Bishop Ransom "A Challenge to the Alumni." In the evening, Rev. Charleston made the alumni address. Alumni Association officers elected were: Dr. Charleston, pres.; Mrs. Tressie Clarke Daniel, sec., and Prof. Chas. S. Smith, national secretary. On the recommendation of President Wright, the trustee board will ask the General Conference to celebrate the 80th anniversary of Wilberforce in May, 6; also to set apart August 14 as the opening day of its incorporation, and Jan. 1, as Wilberforce Days for members to donate one dollar to the school. Don't Look Good for Dems, Next Los Angeles, Cal.—To Will Rogers, the comedian, it looks "none too good for the Democrats, next year." "No, sir," he said in an address to an audience of our people at Second Baptist church here, last week. "It don't look none too good for us, but you gotta give 'em credit. The Democrats got five billion bucks from the Republicans before it looked like they might have to quit." Another attraction at the meeting was Jess Owens, spinner from Cleveland, O. Dan Fairfax, who returned from the hospital, recently, is not much improved. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS EHIOPIA! IMPERORS FAILED PORTS TO CONQUER AFRICA'S AN NATION, ETHIOPIA. Wants to "Settle an Old Score," Italy's Defeat at Adowa by Ethiopia, Years Ago. ROMAN EMPERORS FAILED IN SEVERAL EFFORTS TO CONQUER AFRICA'S CHRISTIAN NATION, ETHIOPIA. Mussolini Says He Wants to "Settle an Old Score," Meaning Italy's Defeat at Adowa by Ethiopia, Years Ago. If Mussolini conquers Ethiopia, he will accomplish something that the Roman emperors could not do. Rome succeeded in extending its rule from Asia Minor to England, from Egypt to Spain, but the legions could make no headway in the land whose rains feed the Nile. had difficulty in making their fellow countrymen believe that there was a Christian nation in the interior of Africa. Finally, his Christian majesty, the emperor of Ethiopia, appealed to Portugal, for assistance against Mohammadans, Portugal sent a mile Ethiopia, the only independent state in Africa today with the exception of Liberia, has maintained its independence for more than 3,500 years. The ancient Egyptians did succeed in conquering Ethiopia in the sixteenth century B. C., but the Ethiopians turned right around and conquered the Egyptians. The Ethiopians withdrew from Egypt before the advancing Assyrians. But when they were back on their high plateaus, they resisted successfully every attempt at invasion of their country. "We have an old and a new score to settle and we shall settle them. We shall not take any account of what is beyond our frontiers be-ivesively, we are alone and we exclusively, we the juniors and the guarantors of our future. We shall imitate to the letter those who would now preach us a sermon but who have demonstrated that, when they were creating an empire and defending it, they never took into consideration world opinion," said Mussolini in a recent public address in Italy. Ethiopia, as a member of the league, has appealed to the League of Nations, Geneva, for settlement of the dispute with Italy. Anthony Eden, Britain's shrewd young diplomat, averted an immediate crisis by getting Italy to accept Ethiopia's demand for settlement by conciliation or arbitration within a time limit as Aug. 25. Italy had to accept. Eden's trump card was the fact that the rainy season makes movement of troops in Ethiopia impossible before September. A break with the league would have forced the move over, refusal to arbitrate could not only without military point, but would be strong proof of cold-blooded aggressive intention which is the case. In these circumstances, Mussolinf decided it was best to put off until Aug. 25. the issue that must come up between him and the league. Christianity penetrated into Abyssinia, or Ethiopia as it is now termed, in the fourth century, and to this day the Coptic, or Alexandria church, is the established religion in Ethiopia. It was the venerable Coptic archbishop who put the crown on the head of Emperor Halle Selassie in November, 1930. When the Moslems omanrani and eighth centuries Ethiopia was cut off from the Christian world. And for eight centuries it remained a lost land of Christians. Portuguese explorers crossed from the Red sea to Ethiopia a few decades after Vasco da Gama had found the way around Africa to India. These explorers, upon returning to Portugal, Charles E. Gordon, age 78, E 80th St, died, Saturday, at Lakeside hospital after about a month's serious illness. He had served as a probation officer, working out of the Municipal court for 14 years. Prior to that time he had served as chief turnkey under Sheriffs Theo. McConnelly, inspector in the city garbage department under Mayor Kohler. For many years he was an active Mason, rising to the 32d degree. Funeral services were held at Mt. Zion Cong, church. Tuesday. Many years ago, Charley was an employee of Richards & McKean's restaurant on the Public Square, and later opened for him at the Hotel buffet, one next to the Moose Club in Walnut St. He seems to have had no near relatives. He left his worldly possessions to our local Masons who attended the large funeral in a body. Mrs. Dora Stewart Johnson, a former Troy girl teacher, tutor and volunteer social worker, would appreciate a card from any of her former pupils in Pickrelltown, Rumley, Flatwoods, Pliqua, Lockiaand Cadiz, as she will celebrate, the fiftieth anniversary of her work, on June 29th and 30th at her home.

Finally, his Christian majesty, the emperor of Ethiopia, appealed to his Christian majesty, the king of Portugal, for assistance against Mohammedans. Portugal sent a militia to Ethiopia, and it dited with saving Ethiopia for Christendom. Portugal's king then endeavored to induce the ruling family of Ethiopia to renounce the tenets Emperor Haile Selassie. and rites of the Coptic church and to adopt those of Rome which Mussolini now would introduce. The attempt, however, was resisted by the powerful eclesiastics in the empire. This led to a long struggle, which ended with the expulsion of the Roman Catholic priests in 1633. Emperor Haile Selassie I, now, it seems, will get his chance to demonstrate whether he is a worthy successor to King Menelik, who whipped the flower of the Italian army sent to subjucate him, years ago, at Adowa. And Premier Mussolini's remark about "an old and a new score" to be settled, was readily interpreted as referring exclusive defeat. A war on Ethiopia will mean a score of years' fighting, with consequent loss of thousands of Italian soldiers and millions of dollars, with probable defeat in the end, England, France and even Germany. Will continue to aid the Ethiopians. Mussolini is sure "barking up a mighty high tree" in his controversy with Ethiopia. Doings of the Race Mrs. Wm.

(Bell 'Phone: CHerry 1259) Member Ohio Legislature: 1894 to 1896; 1896 to 1898; 1900 to 1902 UNION UNION SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1935. Atty. David Copland, of the Standard Bank Bldg., has formally announced his candidacy for judge of the Municipal Court, six year term. Since there are five places on the bench to be filled, this fall, and Mr. Copland has demonstrated the fact that he is an exceptionally strong candidate, there is little doubt of his success. --- Kemel Pasha has not liked Mussolini since a little misunderstanding, in which Kemal told Mussolini "if you attack me, your problem will be to find room enough to bury the Italians that I shall kill for you". Perhaps Mussolini will recall this now that he has Abyssinia in mind. One thing sure, Emperor Hail Selassi and his Ethiopians, if drawn into a war with Italy by Mussolini, will furnish the room in northern Africa to care for the many thousands of Italian soldiers they will kill in the twenty or more years the war will be carried on. ETHIOPIA-ABYSSINIA Mussolini will brook no interference with his plans to conquer Abyssinia. On May 14, in a speech to the Italian Senate, he warned the Powers "to leave Abyssinia to Italy." To strengthen his argument, he claims to have 950,000 men armed for battle. More than 200,000 of these are massed in East Africa. According to the Ethiopian Research Council located in Washington, D.C., Mussolini had been sending military supplies to East Africa several months before the alleged border disputes broke out in December, 1934. During August of that year, Fascist Italy sent 1200 tons of barbed wire, 300 airplane engines, tents, blankets and other equipment. In September, Italy sent 200 mules, 20 armored cars, 4000 tons munitions, and in October 80 Flat Trucks and 180 tons of small arms and munitions. During the controversy Mussolini has made the demand "that Ethiopia submit to division into three zones of influence, one English, one French and one Italian, with all the fertile parts of the country suitable for Italian immigration under Italian influence," according to the Journal & Guide, May 25, '35. Since then the Fascist Italian press has accused Great Britain of giving aid to the Abyssinian monarch. England's interest in Abyssinia is concentrated in Lake Tsana, where a dam is to be constructed. Lake Tsana feeds the Nile River, the source of irrigation for England's cotton-growing colony in the Sudan. "Great Britain fears that Mussolini is getting ready to abandon the League of Nations and turn to an alliance with Hitler. According to recent reports, the attack of the League of Nations with Hitler was tautuous with the lifting of the ban on various German newspapers" in Italy.-N. Y. Times, June 9, 35. TAXES MULTIPLY LIKE RATS. Government spokesmen, admitting that the national debt will shortly reach the 35-billion-dollar point if the present rate of expenditure is continued, often attempt to laugh this off with the observation that a country as rich as ours can stand almost anything in the way of debt burden. Also they say that we are not yet as deeply in debt as a great many European countries. Why should we be? Would that be any honor? Do we want our nation infested with taxes like a rotting ship is infested with rats? At the present time, federal expenditures are outrunning federal receipts about two to one. In other words, if we spend $2,000,000,000, half of that is met through existing taxes. The other half must be added to the debt—where it inevitably creates permanent interest charges and new taxes. The tax burden goes up automatically as public debts increase, just as rats multiply and consume everything around them if they are not exterminated. It is an intolerable drain on individuals and industry. Money that would go for building factories—for home improvement and con- struction—for jobs and payrolls—for industrial expansion—for farms—for everything that we use for profit or pleasure, is going to the tax collector. Our productive wealth is being sapped to a constantly increasing extent. Debts make taxes—taxes make debts. They constitute a vicious circle, that threatens the very existence of our social and corporate structure. A tax-invested nation, like a rat-invested snip, is, doomed unless fumigating measures are adopted. FASCISM IN VIRGIN ISLANDS. The first Fascist dictatorship under the authority of the U. S. A. is now in operation in the Virgin Islands. President Koosevett, having been petitioned by the natives to remove the Governor and end the political dictatorship, has only added an economic dictatorship. The dictator-governor, Paul M. Pearson, now has absolute veto power. Under extraordinary circumstances, or which he is the sole judge, he has authority to issue provisional laws and ordinances. The Virgin Islands are incorporated into a company under the control of three share-nolders with Gov. Pearson at the head. The "New Deal" has set apart two million dollars to rehabilitate these islands, and the Governor has the sole power or spending or investing this money. He is omnipotent in all industries, banks and agriculture. There is a property qualification for voters. Only about nine hundred persons out of a population of twenty-two thousand in the Virgin Islands have enough property to vote. Wage earners are distranchised. JOHNSON-POWELL. While Charles E. Gordon was dying in Lakeside hospital, last week, led by Civil Service Commissioner Clayborne George. "The Sulzmann Trio," Councilmen Payne, Bundy and Hubbard were selecting his successor, it seems, even though it was a civil service appointment. An examination was called for, last Saturday, to fill the place. Among those taking it were: Ray Johnson, Wm. White, Lawrence Powell, Grace Caver, a few more members of our race, and a large number of the other race ("greys"). "The Blossom Triplets" (Payne, Bundy and George) and Hubbard, it is said, decided to give the place to Ray Johnson, whose qualifications, we understand, do not fit him for the job, Municipal Court probation officer. Notwithstanding this fact, he was given a rating by the Civil Service Commission, of which George is a member, of over 90. Powell, whose position with The Child's Welfare League of the County, was secured for him by the editor of the Gazette, some years ago, the best qualified applicant of our race for the position, earned a rating a little less than that given Johnson. When Powell called upon George, the first of the week, he was bluntly told that Johnson was going to get the place and treated discourteously, to say the least, he claims, in spite of the fact that he was, in spite of the councilman's strongest supporters when a candidate for re-election to the City Council and later when a candidate for Municipal Judge. A "provisional" appointment to the place for Johnson was scheduled for, Wednesday. However, it was rumored, the first of the week, that a careful examination of Johnson's examination papers, Tuesday, by Judge Dan B. Cull, Democratic member of the Civil Service Commission, was to be made. It was thought that this would show Johnson's inability to secure any such rating as was given him. There has been entirely too much such political juggling done in the cases of persons taking civil service examinations in the past. Prime Sport News O. W.

Jess Scores Four Firsts. The largest number (30,000) to ever witness a dual meet on the Pacific coast cheered Jess Owens, here last Saturday, as he won the 100 and 220-yard dashes, the low hurdles and the broad jump in the contest with Southern California. In the 220, he set a new Coliseum mark, 20.7, the old one being 20.8 set by Wykoff. In the 220-yard low hurdles, he made 23.1, 23.2, 23.3, 23.4, broad jump he leaped 25 feet 5% inches. Jess holds undisputed world records in three events and is co-owner of a fourth. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, Q. SATURDAY. JUNE 22. 1935.

OHIO'S MOB VIOLENCE ACT OR ANTI-LYNCHING LAW LEADS THE COUNTRY IN EFFECTIVE LEGISLATION Against the Mob and Lynch-Murder—Three Years Work of a Member of the Race—Also His Ohio Civil Rights Law. 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 laws being vexed specifically in Indiana, Pennsylvania and New Jersey have followed Ohio's lead and enacted mob violence or anti-lynching laws which are copies of our Ohio law. Several other northern states and at least one border state (Kentucky) have also enacted anti-lynching laws, in recent years. The Ohio law follows: 6278. "Mob" and "lynching" defined. 6279. "Serious injury" defined. 6280. Damages in case of assault. 6281. Damages in case of lynching. 6282. Damages recoverable by legal representative of victim of lynching. 6283. Person suffering death or injury by 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 "mob" for the purpose of this chapter.

(93 v. 163 12.) comes from another county to commit violence on a prisoner brought from such county for safekeeping, the county in which the lynching is committed may recover the amount of the judgment and costs from the county from which the mob came, unless there was contributory negligence on the part of officials of such county in failing to protect such prisoner or disperse such mob. (93 v. 163 11.) Section 6279. The term "serious injury," for the purpose of this chapter, shall include such injury as permanently or temporarily disables the person receiving it from earning a livelihood by manual labor.

A person assaulted and lynched by a mob may recover, from the county in which such assault is made, a sum not to exceed five hundred dollars; or, if the injury received therefrom is serious, a sum not exceeding one thousand dollars, from the county in which such assault is made, disability, to earn a livelihood by manual labor, a sum not to exceed five thousand dollars. (93 v. 162 5.) Section 6282.

A person suffering death or injury from a mob attempting to lynch another person shall come within the provisions of this chapter. He or his legal representatives shall have a like right of action as one purposely injured or killed by such a mob. (93 v. 162 6.) Section 6284. Action for the recoveries provided for in this chapter must be commenced, within two years from the date of such lynching, in any court having original jurisdiction of an action for damages for malicious assault. (93 v. 162 7.) Section 6285.

(93 v. 163 11). Section 6289. This chapter shall not relieve a person concerned in such lynching from prosecution for homicide or assault for engaging therein. (93 v. 163 12). OUR OHIO CIVIL RIGHTS LAW Upon the request of many readers of The Gazette we print below the text of the Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law which the editor had enacted while a member of the 71st General Assembly, in 1894. The General Code of Ohio: Sec. 12940. Whoever, being the proprietor or his employee, keeper or manager of an inn, restaurant, eating house, barber-shop, public conveyance by land or water, theater or other place of public accommodation and amusement, denies to a citizen, except for reasons applicable alike to all citizens and regardless of race or color, the full enjoyment of the accommodations, advantages, facilities or privileges thereof, shall be fined not less than fifty dollars nor more than five hundred dollars, or imprisoned not less than thirty 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 fifty dollars to the person aggrieved therein, who is 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 should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts.

American M THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, JUNE 22. 1935. OUR BOARD MEMBER TURNS AGAINST US! At Monday's meeting, June 9, '35, of the Board of Education, Ray C. Miller, board member, presented a resolution providing that picnics for public school children at Euclid Beach Park be forbidden by the board, immediately. This was in line with a decision of the board made last year, when it voted that it would not permit picnics at that amusement park "unless and until they are given every race and color be accorded the same joy of accommodation, advantages, facilities, and privileges," there. A delegation of our people which included Clayborne George, Chester Gillespie, and Miss Pearl Mitchell, president of the NAACP local branch, which was in attendance upon the board meeting. June 9, charged that Euclid Beach Park had discriminated against our children by closing the dance-hall and roller-skating rink on days when our public school children were picnicing at the park. Mrs. Marion, only member of the board, seems to have led the fight against the Miller resolution. She said, according to The Plain Dealer of June 10, '35, Cleveland's only morning daily newspaper: "If we want to be fair about this, we ought to let the picnics go on as scheduled this year since there are only four or five left. Then we can study the situation and do something about it, if necessary, next year." As a result, the Miller resolution was lost. That Monday evening, park officials refused to discuss the affair, an indication, we take it, that they are refusing to comply with the board's resolution of last year and will continue, at least, for the rest of this year to discriminate, as indicated, against our public-school children should they picnic at the park. We want to be fair about this, we ought to be fair about this, we scheduled this year; since there are only four or five left," said Mrs. Martin at the meeting, Monday. If she meant "be fair" to her own people, Mrs. Martin must have known that the discrimination at the park had been discontinued, and should have said so. If she did not know that this was the case, she knew that the board would not "be fair" in refusing to adopt the Miller resolution which she, Mrs. Lucia McBride and President Lawrence N. Norton, voted to adopt. We know that that Mrs. Martin is more concerned about being "fair" to the Euclid Beach park management than to her own people. Therefore, The Gazette asks her if she has the assurance of the park officials that they are according and will continue to accord "the full and equal enjoyment of accommodation, advantages, facilities, and privileges" of the park as stated in the board's resolution which was adopted, last year. What ought to be done is, take the matter into the courts and stop the discrimination at the park. Then, too, our people must not forget Mrs. Lucia McBride and Lawrence N. Norton. Mr. Miller is a candidate for re-election, this fall, and ought to have our undivided support. He is a real friend of the race. THE PWA GIVEN $250!

Prepared by National Geographic Society, Washington, D. C.-WNU Service. TRAVELING as a vagabound in the British Isles is somewhat different from traveling as a tourist. Here's how on American saw the country on an job hunt which extended from England through Wales and Scotland to Edinburgh. In London a member of the Guards asked him, "If you hadn't a lot of money, how could you take a trip like "Oh, that's easy," he replied, "Worked my way across. I expect to walk up to Scotland and back, earning my expenses." "Great; but how are you going to get work with jobs so scarse?" "Trust to luck," he said nonchalantly. His equipment was simple. Over a navy-blue slip-on sweater he put on a reemo khaki shirt, leaving the collar open; got into rough, brown tweed trousers, and pulled on an old brown snap-brim hat. Into a small haversack a change of underwear, a couple of pairs of socks, a few handkerchiefs, and some toilet articles. Then he packed all of his other belongings and left them in the care of a storage company. The walker arrived in Oxford at commencement time, remained there for two days, then set out for Stratford-on-Avon. There he sought out the place in Henley street which most people believe to be the Bard's birthplace. At the rear of the half-remembered, gable-roofed house, with its quaint mullioned windows was a spacious garden. A high stone wall surrounded this idyllic spot, but screened none of the beauty. Due to his unusual height, he could look right over and enjoy the scene to his heart's content without having, to pay for the prilogue. In nearby Shottery, with his finances reduced to only eight shillings, he suddenly abandoned holiday-making and sought work. He was offered a job in a cow barn, but finding that the purchase of suitable clothing would eat up all his profit, he declined the job and struck out for Worcester, a much larger town with probably better opportunities. Here he obtained a position as laborer to help reconstruct a store. Lost in the Hills of Wales. On the road again, the American wanderer took a long tramp through the wilds of Wales. Leaving the foot-hills behind, he came to the real hills, some brown with heather, soon to blossom out with tiny red flowers that would transform them into huge mounds of ruddy color. Once, after a storm, he became lost in the hills. Around him, as far as the eye could see was nothing but grassy, almost treeless hills and valleys. There was no sign of life except for a few sheep nibbling at tufts of grass nearby. Almost in despair, he walked along mile after mile without coming to a road or within sight of a farmhouse, and it wasn't long before he realized he had been misdirected and was as near lost as anyone could be. Groping in darkness made deeper by the heavy clouds, he made his way, cautiously testing each step until he thought he had passed the marshes. He saw at length a little river in the valley, and beyond it a glinty glimmering light. Throwing caution to the winds, he struck out in that direction. Not far from the bank of the river, he ran into some tall grass and, before he realized where his feet were falling, he felt an odd sensation, as if by some sinister means he was being engulfed by an unseen power. He wriggled loose, only to slip again at the next step into the clutches of the bog. Was he suddenly to be snatched away by this monster and leave no trace? Frantic, he clutched at his oozing strength and fought like a madman, digging his nails into the slime, seeking a support. Somehow in the blackness he found one—and drew himself to safety. Liverpool to Scotland. Finally he reached Liverpool, the second seaport in Britain, where he was determined to make his next try for a job. He obtained one shifting furniture in the warehouse of a depart ment store. On the second day there he was offered permanent work at nearly double the salary. Believed, he thanked his employer, but explained that he was over to see some of the Old World and didn't want to settle down until he had done so. After two weeks of working, and exploring Liverpool, he set off for Scotland. At Ormskirk he saw an architectural monstrosity—a church with a tower and a spire, built side by side. An architect he chanced to meet told him something of the story of the queer edifice. Two midden sisters, of the name of Orme, desiring to donate funds for a superstructure, could not agree on the kind. After long argument, one built a tower and the other a spire. In Kendal, he sat down on the bank of the River Kent under a gigantic elm and ate some sandwiches purchased at a store nearby. The little money he had brought from Liverpool had dwindled to a few shillings. One night, just as twilight was beginning to form, he entered Edinburgh and passed down Princes street. Along one side, a wide expanse of well-kept gardens extended to the bold, rocky hill on which stands Edinburgh's ancient fortress, its proud castle. After paying his week's rent in advance, he had five shillings left, barely enough to provide food for two days. That meant he should have to use quick action. He began with the department stores, but was not so fortunate in finding a job this time. For two days he made the rounds, calling everywhere he thought there was a chance. Being so tall, he drew the spotlight, and quilts from the Inquisitive Scots. Selling Papers in Edinburgh. When his resources had dwindled to a shilling, he realized something had to be done immediately, but what? Hungry as a bear, he pondered on what he could buy that would supply the most nourishment at the least cost! Chocolate won! In a sweets shop, he bought three penny bars for breakfast and, munching away, crossed the North bridge. He came to the fine old building housing the Scottsman and the Evening Dispatch, two of the most important papers in Scotland. Perhaps here was a chance; at least it was worth making a stab at! Inside he inquired how much could be made by selling papers. The man in charge was astonished. "You're foolish," he said; "All the corners worth having are held by dealers already." "Is the North bridge taken?" "No," spoke up some one near him, and he learned that it was the windiest place in the city, and that the news dealers considered it the most undesirable. People had to clutch their hats and keep out of the way of whirling dust, and usually lost no time in getting to the other side; and, anyway, why should they stop to buy a paper when they could get one at either end? The prospects certainly weren't bright. But undaunted, he took his stand near the center of the windy bridge, pulled down his hat, and began calling "Dispatch!" "Selling papers!" one woman exclaimed, "And for a wager, I suppose, Well, I'll encourage no such toolishness! It's not even today's, is it?" "Yes, ma'ma, it's today's and the latest, and I'm not selling them for a wager." Their attention attracted by his unusual height, pedestrians stared at him, many eying him with skepticism. But when they saw he was really in earnest, the papers quickly disappeared, and he had to restock frequently. By seven o'clock he found he had made more than five shillings. The next day he was one of the star venders. On the following day his photograph and a detailed article about him appeared in the press. From then on the papers sold like hot cakes. That night he was a bit of a celebrity. Every few feet he was stopped and given the glad hand. He received so many whacks on the back that his shoulders felt sore the next day, and for the rest of his stay, he had practically no time to himself. Autograph hunters asked him to sign his name in books and on the papers he sold, or to inscribe verses in diaries. During his last day on the bridge, he was showered with invitations to spend the week-end. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY. JUNE 22. 1935 LACE TAKES LEAD IN STYLE PARADE Is Used in Clothes for All Sorts of Occasions. Lace is queen, long live the queen! The importance of lace cannot be overstated. The "Lace Ball" given some few days ago at the Waldforf Astoria in New York, was a glamorous affair—a veritable fairyland of beauty, romance, talent, charm and feminine loveliness which baffles description. Everyone wore lace at this gorgeous panorama of lace fashions and what's more, everybody is going to wear the most intriguing lace fashions the whole summer through, for no woman who senses the beautiful things of life will be able to resist the lure of the laces which are far and beyond anything shown for years, if ever. The revue featured new sports costumes that show the sturdy and wearable lace fabrics for daytime wear. Beach costumes and bathing suits in lace proved a most fascinating feature as they presented a program of smart fashions. An array of filmy evening gowns in exquisitely patterned laces, bouffant nets and in voluminous in type and kind and in a versatile scale of color and line, held all eyes enthralled. And, then, wonder of wonders, the colorful accessory notes, which included evening wraps, shoes, gloves, hats and bags all confluted of the new laces of today were simply breath-taking in scope of ideas, in beauty and originality of design. IN HIGH-STYLE By CHERIE NICHOLAS Maid and matron, daughter and mother, silver-haired, blond or brunette, "sweet sixteen" or past forty, it matters not for everybody's looking young and up-and-going in the sprightly prints, shiny straws and colorful bouquets which fashion is giving her followers with this spring and for summer to come. See mother pictured above in her stunning rough straw sailor topped with its pert velvet bow, and her striking print frock, and wearing a corsage of those most elegant and luxurious of flowers—orchids. Daughter, posing below in the illustration, competes with mother in this matter of wearing orchids. Her new flowered taffeta frock is a "dear." It is trimmed in the Regency manner with bows of bright velvet ribbon. Do not fall to observe the swanky little sailor which climaxes this costume. It is of shiny stitched black oilcloth. Schiaparelli's New Hats Attract Crowds in Paris The new Schiaparelli hats are in and they are as original as ever, drawing crowds to the windows in which they are shown. Very new and different is a hat of medium blue felt with a round shallow crown, without a brim on the right side but a turned-up one with a soft roll on the left side. For dinner wear there is a hat in soft tulle with a tilted-forward line. Wax tuberoses are massed on the forehead. Brims are pinched somewhere, usually over one eye, and in the pinch, Schiaparelli often places a perky bow of grosgrain. Little wings, no bigger than a thumb, are perched on the edge of a curved-up brim. Although there are some off-the-face hats, this line is not stressed as it becomes only a few wearers. STYLE NOTES All-around knife-pleated skirts make their appearance. White frog fastenings animate dark costumes. Front fullness is made feature in newer gowns and coats. Hood-cape of net or other sheers is making a big appeal to the younger set. Floating Gowns The newest evening gowns float in clouds—of tulle. Sequins, satins and metal cloths are giving way to fabrics considered "utterly feminine and charming." FLOWERS ARE WORN ON SPRING SUITS Ascots of Blooms, Scarfs and Garlands Popular. The fashion for flowers is even adopted by women wearing severe tailored tweeds. With a costume consisting of a stunning suit in rough green accessories, bright pink carnations were planned on the lapel. Some of these boutonnières achieved a smart, mannish look with white or red carnations adorning black and white mixture woolens or plain gray suits. A fashion leader wore carnations with a brown tweed costume and felt hat. At front of her coat collar, a simple turnover one close to the throat, was fastened a spray of dark red carnations, five or six large ones, giving as much color as would a scarf. There are many other posy trimmings. The downtown stores are already well stocked with displays of the white plaque flowers which appeared at the openings. A LA "LITTLE WOMEN" By CHERIE NICHOLAS 1930 It's chic to be quaint. Which applies to the "Little Women" fashions that are registering so smartly in the season's style parade. The important thing about this new vogue is that one must look the part even to the hairdress. "Bangs" is the answer, curled primly to top a smooth brow, with hair brushed slick back over the ears as here pictured. You can see how readily this hairdress blends into the scheme of things, a fact which impressed the delighted audience which attended a recent style revue held under the auspices of the Chicago wholesale market council, where the charming gingham-checked silk dress here shown with its big sleeves and wide organdle ruffles proved one of the big sensations of this style event. The idea of coiffing hair to the tune of the costume was staged in other fascinating numbers. Navy Blue Big Favorite To date navy is top, navy relieved by white, quantities of white, both under the chin and often above it, since many hats have white bands or something white about them. One of the season's new combinations—navy and chamois—is gaining ground, and navy footwear may also be said to be doing so. The downtown shops report active interest in taffeta street dresses, some with jackets. Again navy scores for jacket costumes and for redingotes, the dresses of which are taffeta, and for the redingotes wool. It is, as has been predicted for months, a big suit season, which makes it also a big blouse year. FLASHES FROM PARIS Milliners trim with fruit and flowers. Accent is on dark red with ox-blood cast, as a new color. Summer brims run to extremes in size. Tailored suit takes on sheer lacy batiste blouse with many Val edgings. Jewelry of old-fashioned design is worn. Hats match wraps rather than gowns is latest message. Bow accents are posed at front of tiny hats of pill-box type. Scarfs, Belts Match Scarfs and belts of the same material and design are among new ideas in accessories to pop up an outfit that is a bit weary from wear. Gilt Flowers Popular Large gilt floral buttonholes decorated with mother-o'-pearl and coral are to be worn with bracelets of similar design. Moccasins in Fashion Moccasins in green wool, made along the lines of the old-fashioned elastic-side shoes, are a fashion novelty in London. copy of The maintenance w In The WEEK'S NEWS CURRENT EVENTS PHOTOGRAPHED FOR THE GAZETTE ANTAGONISTS—Public debate between these two antagonists as to the merits of the AAA has culminated in a pair of articles published this month by The Country Home, national farm magazine, in which M.
