Hodges and Alex. E. Fifteen years ago Alex. E. Talbert and four of his friends quit their routine jobs to travel as gospel singers. Back, after a second trip abroad that took them half way around the world, they are as one in saying they never regretted the step. "True, we sometimes had to wait until Wednesday for our Sunday dinner." Mr. Talbert said in recounting "But the good times we've had more than made up for the sacrifices." Was Waiter in Old Days. Mr. Talbert, second bass in the gospel singers, was a waiter in the old days. Floyd H Lacy, first tenor, was a letter-carrier; Spurgeon R. Jones, second tenor, worked in a dry-cleaning establishment; Henry D. Hodges, first bass, was a motor mechanic and John W. Parker, second tenor, a porter. "No doubt we'd have been working at our old jobs yet if we hadn't begun singing at the Christian Miss THE MAY We Give Another Treme THE GAZETTE Courtesy of The Cleveland News. sionary Alliance in Cedar Ave." Mr. Talbert said. "Not long after we decided to give up everything and depend upon the Lord for support. He's not failed us yet, and I don't think He will." Make Six-Month Tour. In their last trip abroad, the group spent six months in singing at evangelistic services in Ireland, Scotland, England, Norway, Sweden, and Latvia. "Looking back it seems to me that we had our most inspiring time in Oslo, Norway," said Mr. Talbert. There we were the first colored people in a service at the Lincoln memorial. In Latvia the singers were a center of attention because they were among the first of their race to visit that country. The group found much to interest them at the jubilee services in London, where they heard the singers. The singers expect to return to Europe at the all of 1936—Cleveland Daily News.

J.—The American Federation of Labor executive council Tuesday directed Wm. Green to appeal to President Roosevelt to try to stop the threatened Ethiopian War. The federation president said he would carry the appeal to the White House just as soon as he returned to Washington from the council's quarterly meeting here. "From all the facts and information available there seems to be no justification for a war of aggression on the part of Italy and for the invasion of Ethiopian territory," the council said in a statement. "The council is of the opinion that Ethiopian sovereignty should be respected." Mrs. Bessie Mickey visited Mrs. W. H. Cash in Mansfield, last week. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Shields visited there also. Joe Won! Chicago, Ill.—"King" Levinsky, Wednesday night went the way of all flesh that has contacted the lethal blows of Joe Louis, Detroit's sensational fighter. The "King" became the twentieth foe in 24 fights to be knocked out by Louis in one year. After two minutes and 21 seconds of fighting, Levinsky, battered to the floor three times, squatted on the ropes of the ring and pleaded for mercy. Chicago's glorified ex-fish peddler, hopeless beaten in those exciting two minutes, sat on the bottom rope of the ring in a neutral corner, and appealed to Referee Norman McGarrity to stop the battle. "Don't let him hit me again. I am thru," Levinsky pleaded thru chalk-like lips. Louis, fighting savagely from the start, stood immobile in mid-ring, waiting for Levinsky to get up as he gazed into the far recesses of Comiskey Park, home of the White Sox, that held 44,000 bewildered spectators. King's Handlers Stunned Referee McGarrity took the beaten Levinsky by the arm and helped him to his corner and into the arms of his stunned handlers. Thus ended a battle scheduled to go ten rounds. "Prize fighting is a tough grind," Joe Louis says, "even if you are not being hit hard. The hard grind of training, eating just certain foods and being pulled over and milled about isn't the sweetest thing in the world. If I reach the goal I have set for myself (the championship) I'll walk out and leave the other fellows to argue over the spoils." Peacock Ties World Mark Basel, Switzerland.—Led by Eulace Peacock, athlete from Temple University, U. S. A., who equalled the listed world record of 10:3 seconds for the 100-meters dash, touring the United States with thirteen dominated at international meet here. Tuesday.

Local fans will pin their hopes on the tournament. "Babe" Mitchell of Cincinnati are who ranking student-players. The boys will represent the local tennis club in the tournament. MAN'S WALK IS TIP, JEWELS RECOVERED New York, Aug. 5.—Detectives Raymond Henshaw and Charles Beakey didn't like the way James Hinton, 43, a porter, was walking down lower Broadway today. So they followed him until he got to City Hall Park. Then they stopped him, searched him, and found in a crumpled envelope a strang of pearls valued at $100,000. Who were they? Mr. Grafton Minot of New York in May, 1931. The necklace was insured and according to police its full value was paid to Mrs. Minot. Hinton told detectives his wife, Ethel, had found the necklace while working in an exclusive gown shop. They did not notify police, fearing they would be arrested he said. He said that he sold nine diamonds from a clasp attached for $90. Four diamonds remaining, he said, were at his home. It is currently rumored that Burton Beach, near Ashtabula, O., will be discontinued, next year, owing to a lack of patronage. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS NSHIP! CANDIDATES! ATS AND TWO REPUBLICANS THE CONTESTING. "City-Council and Municipal Judge- o Numerous to Mention." FIVE CANDIDATES! THREE DEMOCRATS AND TWO REPUBLICANS ARE CONTESTING. The Candidates for City-Council and Municipal Judgeships "Too Numerous to Mention." When the new Huron Road hospital in E. Cleveland was dedicated, this week, ALL residents of Cleveland's east side were given access to another one of the finest modern hospitals in the country. It has accommodated more than 10,000 to ALL citizens without respect to color or race like all the other hospitals in the city of Cleveland. And yet there were "jim-crow Negroes" in this city, led by many of our local physicians, who fought The Gazette against the mayor, trying to establish a "jim-crow" hospital here to which all of our people of this community would have been restricted. Lord, have mercy! What seems to be reliable report has it that Councilman Leroy Bundy has purchased three houses and lots, within the year, in Thackery Ave., in one of which he lives. The pay of a councilman is only $150 a month. Bundy is closing his sixth year of service in the City Council. He sure has made some purchases, then some, in order to be able to make those purchases, even though property values are low. The house he lives in has been renovated, remodeled and etc., to the "steenth" degree, it is said. The same source of information has it that Councilman Lawrence Payne is building a residence in Columbus. Who knows about this—if the report be true Dr. F. W. Walz, one of the Democratic candidates for mayor, was Republican coroner of this (Cuyahoga) county, 35 or 40 years ago. Mark Hanna's political causes caused the Dr and Billy Springborn, a councilman, to leave the Republican party. Afterwards, the latter served as Director of Public Works under a Democratic governor, and produced the resolution in the City Council which opened the City Hospital to our student nurses and internes, climaxing a three year fight of The Gazette. He did this, too, with all three of "The Blossom Triplets" (Payne, Bundy and George) sitting (quiet as usual) as members of the City Council. One of them should have introduced the resolutions but apparently did not have the votes. The Rounder started out to say is, Dr Walz, one of the best candidates for mayor, is entitled to consideration from the hands of our voters of this --- HEAR! HEAR!! M ON WHAT'S DOING Butcher Hawkins, of Sanford Fla., sure has some wife, "Sister" Hawkins fired at him six times, last week Tuesday, and though she failed to hit him, which is not at all surprising, she was fined $50 and costs in court, the next day. The Rounder wint bet most anything that "Brother" Hawkins had to cough up that fifty and like it. Some member of the Republican ward organization or club in Wards 11, 12, 17 and 18 ought to go into court and ask an accounting—find out what has been done with the $600 or $700 a month the 11th and 17th ward city jobholders have paid into it, and what has become of the lesser totals paid in by the 18th and 12th ward jobholders, for many months past. Find where all the money went! When Eddie Tolan returned to Detroit, when before last, as "the world's fastest human" that city secured him a clerkship in the County Auditor's office. When John Owens, an Ohio State University student and this year's "fastest human" until Eulace Peacock defeated him, returned to Cleveland, a few days ago, Cleveland gave him a job as an attendant at a gasoline filling station! Hurrah! for Cleveland! Great city, isn't it!

With our next issue, "The Old Reliable" enters its fifty-third year of continuous publication, every week on time. The dispatch to the daily papers, last week, from Louisburg, N. C., announcing that "Negroes helped in that lynching" is undoubtedly untrue. The only way any of them could be present at a lynching in that section of the country would be as the result of force. --- The editor of one of our leading papers gravely announces that the "anti-lynch bill (Costigan-Wagner) steadily gains favor in the U. S. Senate," full of southern "crackers." Why continue to kid yourself, brother? Neither the Democratic U. S. Senate nor House of Representatives will pass an "anti-lynch" bill. If they did, the U. S. Supreme court would promptly declare it unconstitutional because the U. S. Congress has not the right to legislate against mob violence in the states. --- Residents of the Virgin Islands, who fought long, aggressively and successfully to throw off the yoke placed on them by Gov. Paul M. Pearson, are now fighting just as aggressively the recent appointment of his successor and former assistant, Gov. Cramer of St. Croix, a smaller Island of the Virgin Island group. They characterize young Cramer as "the most despised public official in the Virgin Islands" and are calling on President Roosevelt to withdraw the appointment, something he ought to do, at once. That mob of brutes that lynch-murdered Govar. Ward near Louisburg, N. C., last week Tuesday, knew he was insane and irresponsible when he murdered that farmer, but that meant absolutely nothing to them because Ward was a "Negro." Therefore, they gave the world another exhibition of "southern chivalry" that has been lowering the status of American civilization at least in the minds of intelligent people the world over. The solution of the lynch-murder problem rests in state legislation against the mob and the sooner this fact is recognized the better for all concerned. --- And now the disagreeable fact creeps out that no "tax-the-rich" program, no matter how confiscatory, will ever produce enough money to make a dent in the federal debts that are piling up. The deadly fact is beginning to sink into the minds of our lawmakers, as well as into the minds of our taxpayers, that the only way to collect the billions of dollars a year needed to meet present public expenditure, is by a tax that reaches down into the toe of the sock of every individual who has an income above the bare subsistence level. It has been predicted that within the next five years we may claim the distinction of being one of the most heavily taxed nations of the world. ETHIOPIA. It is becoming clearer and clearer with each succeeding week that the foreign correspondence, sent American daily newspapers, with accounts of the progress of the Ethiopian-Italo controversy, is being "colored" in the interest of Italy. For instance, their statement to the effect that British, French and Italian representatives would undertake to get Ethiopia to sign a peace pact which would give Italy the control of Ethiopia, something Emperor Haile Selassie made perfectly clear, a week or ten days ago, he would never consent to. Still the aforementioned correspondents almost daily send that kind of "stuff" to the American newspapers. It is said that British and French governments are concerned lest a prolonged struggle rouse all the native peoples of Africa to solidarity in sympathy if not in active support of Ethiopia in its struggle with Italy. "HAS NO CONCERN"! We were told, last week, by the Washington correspondents of the daily newspapers of the country that with pointed reference toward the Italo-Ethiopian crisis, President Roosevelt enunciated a two-point American peace plan—continuation of the "good neighbor policy" and avoidance of issues that do not concern this country. The President's statement, made as he leaned back in his chair and faced a crowded press conference, was given as his off-hand answer to a question regarding what he considered the Roosevelt administration had done to keep the United States out of war. "The Italo-Ethiopian controversy," the President said in answer to another question—"made the cases in which the United States has no concern other than an interest in the frequently-emphasized desire of doing everything possible to maintain peace throne the world." It "might be" is **WRONG**, Mr. President, because it is not "one of the cases" in which this country has "no concern." Your position in the matter makes this country seem cowardly, to say the least. It **SHOULD** have "concern," other than an interest in the frequently-emphasized desire to maintain peace throughout the world, because under the Kellogg-Briand American-initiated pact, which Italy signed, it renounced "War as an instrument of national policy" and promised to submit all her disputes with foreign countries to arbitration. The United States government, as the promoter and one of the pact's signatories, can and ought to apply pressure on Mussolini to uphold his promise and not assume the cowardly attitude outlined by the President, last week. SHOULD WE WEAKEN HOWOULD WE WEAKEN THE CONSTITUTION? Suggestions to change the Constitution, in order to give the Federal Government powers the Supreme Court has decided it does not now possess, should be critically weighed by the American people. Whether we realize it or not, it is the Constitution which protects the ownership and the sanctity of the home. It is the Constitution which safeguards the independence and rights of the worker. It is the Constitution which maintains the sanctity of contract. And, finally, it is the Constitution which guarantees and supports the rights, the liberties and the privileges for which the forefathers of the nation fought when they changed America from a foreign-dominated colony to a free nation dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Those who would change the Constitution would do so on the supposition that it is out of date—that it is no longer capable of meeting the problems, the conditions, the issues of the times. If that is true, human liberty is out of date. Individual freedom is out of date. Democratic government—which has as its guiding principle that the people are the masters, not the servants of government—is out of date. Private initiative and individual ambition are out of date. Every time we weaken it. Under the existing Constitution, a delicate balance of power is maintained between the central government and the 48 state governments. The Federal Government is enabled to do that which individual states could not efficiently do—while the states are left free to make laws, rulings, regulations and policies that are in accord with the beliefs and needs of their people. If we broaden the powers of the Federal Government we shall simply be giving bureaucracy a greater free and unchecked field for action—at the expense of the states, of industry, of workers, of every citizen. WEIGHT IN GOLD"! Cleveland, O., Aug. 25, 1932. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor, Gazette. Dear Friend:—I have read the latest copy of The Gazette through and after reading it, I can truthfully say: It is worth its weight in gold! I admire true manhood—a man who, seeing injustice and oppression, dares, within the limits of the law, to expose it and, if possible, smite it. You and I have frequently, during the fifty years since the birth of The Gazette, been, as the Scotch would say, like two McNelis, but, when I find a man, such as you, who consistently, and persistently, thru half a century, puts his race foremost in my life, I take of my hat to him, as being a true friend of our class. Long life to you and "The Old Reliable" Gazette. Yours for the right, John P. Green. (Former Member, Ohio State Senate.) THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, AUGUST 10. 1935.

I READ WHERE YOU WERE GOING TO FIGHT THE CHAMP AND I THought YOUR FOLKS MIGHT AS WELL BE TESTED AGAINST ANY KIND OF AN ACCIDENT DICK BURGAL LEAGUE WINS TIME! It's Peace Plan, Accepted by Ethiopia and Italy, Gives It Another Month. Geneva, Switzerland — The council of the League of Nations, in an effort to prevent war between Italy and Ethiopia, has adopted a compromise for at least a month (after September) In the interval, Britain and France will work to divert the dispute into Emperor Haile Selassie. peaceful channels. The compromise is in two parts. 1—The two arbitrators named by Italy and the two by Abyssinia will resume their interrupted negotiations, naming a fifth and neutral member to cast the deciding vote. The commission's work will be strict, and only one member decide only on responsibility for the border clashes at Ualualu and elsewhere, in which each nation claims the other was the aggressor. The commission will not consider boundaries or other vital matters affecting Ethiopia's independence and sovereignty. 2—Britain, France and Italy will confer on the future status of the African kingdom. The three big powers will meet as signatories of the Treaty of 1906, under which they partitioned their spheres of influence in east Africa and pledged themselves to safeguard Ethiopia's independence. The three-power talk probably will start at Nice, France, and the arbitration commission most likely will take place in the Netherlands, where it convened before. The council completed its work and adjourned at 8 p. m., Saturday, after passing two resolutions, providing for the negotiations for settlement and stipulating that if they fail the council shall meet again and take over the entire dispute, making recommendations for a peaceful settlement even if it drives Italy from the League. The council correspondents are sending American newspapers a lot of "stuff" which they manufacture that is untrue, and unfair to Ethiopia. Emperor Haile Selassie is not only misquoted at times but often "words are put in his mouth". II Duce May Meet The Emperor. II Duce May Meet The Emperor. Addis Ababa, N. Africa—Ethiopia has accepted the League of Nations formula to settle her and Italy's quarrel. After hours of study, Emperor Nasser, a former police officer, made this brief announcement; "I have instructed my delegate to Geneva to accept the League's proposals as elaborated by Mr. Eden of England and Premier Laval of France". Earlier, the Emperor expressed willingness to sit in a conference with Premier Benito Mussolini in an effort to settle their differences. 3-Power Parley Set. Paris, France.—The conference between France, Italy and Great Britain for discussion of Italo-Ethiopian settlement has been tentatively set for Aug. 16 here. Island Is After American Cotton. New York City.—The N, Y, Sun said, Wednesday, that Italy is negotiating with banks here for the financing of a large purchase of American cotton. Here is President Roosevelt's opportunity to help Ethiopia! Italy has refused to pay this country Its World War debt and should be paid "war help" of any kind in this country. The amount of cotton was variously reported at between 250,000 and 500,000 bales. A Real Bishop! St. Louis, Mo.—Altho he is aware of the power of God on the side of a nation fighting for its existence, Bishop Noah W. Williams of the A. M. E. Church, believes that God helps those most who help themselves and others, and he writes a letter to Emperor Haile Selassie of Ethiopia, admonishing him, in his struggle against Italian aggression, to "Trust God and give them hell." Lynch-Murdered an Insane Man. 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 Law. It has been very, very Illinois, 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: Section 6279. "Mob" and "lynching" defined 6279.

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 of his employee, keeper or manager of a 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 or bursary, bursary, dollars, or imprisoned not less than five 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 should, but expect it to do for them what they should and must do for themselves, under it, in the courts. A. E.

As a result of the mistreatment of Atty, Perry B.

The sub-committee of the board, that investigated the unfortunate occurrence, was headed by Jos. L. Stern, former president of the association. Associated with him were Attys. E. S. Byers and Geo. Paldra. Perry was guest speaker at the A. U. K. and D. of A. meeting in Springfield, the first of this week. A warrant was issued, Saturday, by Assistant Police Prosecutor Perry B.

Edwards, 6411 Scovill Ave., fifty cents for a piece of pie because of the color. Jaidy ordered that when Edwards ordered the pie, he laid down a dime but that a scuffle then ensued, and as a result Jady and his employer were also charged with assault and battery.

Prepared by the National Geographic Society. Washington, D. C.-WNU Service. ENGLAND'S sunny isle of Wight is a sort of cork in the harbor of Southampton. The incoming tide splits on the island. It piles up the Solent funnel on one side; then, a few hours later, it follows through Spithead on the other side. That is why the world's biggest liners can dock at Southampton. On the landward coast of the island is Cowes, famous city of regattas. Along its narrow streets quaint, ancient houses alternate with stores that display anchors and steering wheels, nautical caps and field glasses, marine photographs and all the burnished brass appurtenances of yachting. Every few doors tearoons offer tempting scones and crumpets; and there are miniature branches of famous shops of Regent Street and Plecadillia. thrusting fractured fragrant sea at the Needles on the east trian who yields to the lonely paths gets an am height much greater than warrants. One can climb in an hour's walk at the southern half of "bowl," sagging between and the seaside cliffs beak to passengers the island for Southam they are, these corrugate the islanders call them because they cut off the per the ocean winds. To not so many, but the soil climate is milder, and the greater in this sheltered Most of Wight's attractions and its wealth of it Along the water front spreads the spacious Esplanade, with the Royal Squadron headquarters projecting upon it. This is the yachting capital of the world. The sun glistens upon the plate glass of the protruding gallery, grandstand for royalty and high naval officers, who largely constitute the membership of the "most exclusive club in the world." There they watch the races of Regatta week, when the Solent waters are flecked by fleecy clouds of canvas, dotted by rainbow bunting and pennants, and, when night comes, agglitter with myriad bobbling lights. Members of this club, and none other, may fly the white pennant of St. George on their yachts; only members and officers of the Royal navy are privileged to land at its neat jetty. One world-famous yachtsman, who spent millions upon his hobby, was not admitted to membership until shortly before his death. By night or day all the big ships that put in at Southampton must pass the deeper channel within half a mile of Cowes. The parapet of the Esplanade seems built as an elbow support to keep sea-gazers from tumbling into the water. All the houses on the gallery-like hillside of the town have enormous plate-glass windows turned toward the sea. As a place to watch the world go by in ships, Cowes is an unsurpassed marine grandstand. East Cowes Is Industrious. Across the lureslure Medina river, East Cowes takes on the industries which Cowes proper, and consciously prim, seems to spurn. There is a ship-building yard which supplies lifeboats for steamers and for beach guards, and there is an aircraft factory which builds amphibian planes. Every store on the precarious hillside streets is a reminder of the island's intense preoccupation with the sea, offering paraphernalia ranging from oyster tongs to hawkers, and there are many shops that make shiny marine engineering parts. It was among the marshlands of East Cowes that Queen Victoria as a girl collected seawed, and formed an attachment for the island that led to her purchase of Osborne House, which became her favorite place of residence. It is there today, very much as she left it, a gift of King Edward VII to the nation in her memory. The terrace commands the marine view which the good queen loved, vistas of blue ocean through groves of exotic trees—orks, ilexes, deodars, as well as pines and codars. To reach any part of the Isle of Wight entails no longer journey than taking a taxi across Greater London; it is not quite 23 miles long and nowhere wider than 13 miles. Driving due south from Cowes, across its axis, gives a quick picture of its peculiar geography. At first the countryside is wooded, and the clearings are fields and meadows where cabbages, carrots, and broccoli grow, or sheep and cattle graze. Foresta and Truck Farms. From the thick forests of the northern island came the timbers of many an old mansion and cottage of southern England, and today their dining room tables are provided with vegetables by the Wight's truck gardens and rich milk from its herds of Guernseys. Anyone who has eaten in English inns or on English trains must wonder about the source of all the cabbage served with potatoes at nearly every meal. Wight can account for many tons of it. Soon the trees and farms give way to vast expanses of acres carpeted with heather, gorse, ferns, and occasional low, wind-blown trees. The downs, with as many sectional names as a London street, are formed by chalk uplands which stretch straight west and east across the island, bumping to some 700 feet at places, and thrusting fractured fragments into the sea at the Needles on the west and Culver Cliff on the east. The pedestrian who yields to the spell of their lonely paths gets an impression of a height much greater than the altitude warrants. One can climb across them in an hour's walk at their widest part. The southern half of Wight is a "bowl," sagging between the downs and the seaside cliffs that look so bleak to ship passengers as they round the island for Southampton. Barren they are, these corrugated cliffs, but the islanders call them their sun trap because they cut off the fogs and temper the ocean winds. The trees are not so many, but the soil is fertile, the climate is milder, and the crop yield greater in this sheltered saucer. Most of Wight's attraction for visitors and its wealth of historic associations—ranging from the Roman occupation, through Jutish immigration, Danish assault, French attacks, and pirate raids—cling to its coast. Eastward from sedate Cowes is the up-and-coming resort town of Ryde, with its lamp posts that wear garlands of flowers, its tiny tramcars, and its spik promenade where, on cloudless days, women knit as they garner sun tan. Its long, spiderly pier is landing place for thousands of "trippers" from Portsmouth every summer week-end, and its domed pavilion offers concerts and "snack" counters for their entertainment. Second only to Cowes week is the regatta of Ryde's Royal Victoria Yacht Club. And a pretty touch is a children's regatta, held at their large boating lake, where young mariners sail elaborate toy craft and ride about in pad-wheel boats propelled by handles. Brading an Old Town. An hour's easy walk south of Ryde is "Ye Kynges' Towne of Brading," where beaches and bathing machines, piers and yachts seem very far away. Yet along Brading's high and dry High street ships once suiled under the eaves of the timbered buildings, and one might pick from a score of shipmasters to take a cargo into the most distant port. Brading recalls the days when towns were set far up the island's meager rivers, or well back in some arm of the sea, as a protection against invasion or pirate raids. Yet the inhabitants, expert in their knowledge of tides and treacherous channels, could put out to salt water to fish or trade. Long ago slit blocked Brading's harbor, and now dikes have thrust the sea some two miles from its center. Brading church, the oldest in the island, is mentioned in Domesday Book In its chapel is buried Sir John Oglander, who was garnering his salty chronicles of Wight while the Pilgrims were struggling to survive at Plymouth and the early Maryland settlers were putting forth from Cows to St. Mary's. East of Brading, sheltered among the cliffs, is the lovely seaside village of Bembridge, which the world seems to have passed by. The town lies along the embankment, "the only level mile on the island," which has severed Brading Harbor from its name town, and this situation gives it the aspect of "Little Holland." Beauty of the Cliffs. The camera, better than words, can portray the bold beauty of the Foreland, the majestic curvature of Whitecliff bay, and the crumbling promontory of Culver Cliff, where the dows bare their chalky face to the sea. Very often the encroaching tides have carved under the steep cliffs until they lean out, like the sagging old houses in Brading and Shanklin. Walking too near their edge is precarious, for often huge blocks break off and tumble several hundred feet into the ocean. "Back of the island," as the southeastern corner is locally known, such subsidence on a large scale has produced the Undercliff, where ages ago the sea and the frost, together with numerous springs, toppled over the cliff top for some six miles, forming a benchlike secondary cliff. The island springs have cut deep fissures through the cliffs; two of the most famous of these are Blackgang Chine and Shanklin Chine. Near the entrance to the latter is a graceful fountain with a shield bearing the English and American flags and lines written by Longfellow when he visited "leafy Shanklin." But the cliffside town's principal literary association is with Keats, who, during many happy months there, wrote "Lamia." Near Shanklin is Ventnor, Wight's miniature Atlantic City. Long rows of boxlike bathing machines, painted in many colors and odd designs, and children riding ponies on the hard sand, give its beach a sprightly aspect. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY. AUGUST 10. 1935. RIDING ENSEMBLE By CHERIE NICHOLAS Here's the proper outfit for a canter along equestrian paths of city parks these bright summer days or to take along on your camping trip or your sojourn on a dude ranch. The jacket is of a jutesk material in natural color, the shirt is of white mesh, the jodphurs of brown cloth, tailored to perfection. A figured string tie and a brown felt hat, and that which is most important, one of the "just out" swanky leather fob vanities, complete this correct and handsome riding ensemble. This sporty little leather vanity as worn by the chic equestrianne here pictured will lend assurance that you need not have a shinny no matter what active sports you indulge in. A metal vanity might look too dressy for such occasions but this, you see, has been set in alligator leather, hanging from a leather fob which is slipped through the strap of the jodphurs. SILK LACES JUST NOW LEAD IN FAVOR Late Offerings Have Delicacy of an Etching. Women who have always had a warm spot in their hearts for a lace evening dress can once again satisfy their desires. Silk lace, once heirloom lace, is now a smart and practical choice for the silk sheers which lead the summer fashion parade. You will see silk lace on the smartest dance floors and in many fashionable daytime costumes and accessories. It may be made up in tailored or dressy styles but it always retains that femininity that is characteristic of the new silk mode. The new silk laces appear to be of the most fragile, airy description, featuring stylized floral patterns in group treatments. But in spite of its apparent fragility, silk lace has remarkable durability. Silk is the strongest of all textile fibers, raw silk having a breaking strength equal to almost one-third of the best iron wire, and this characteristic makes it practical as well as beautiful for use in laces. It musts very little and cleans beautifully. If you do happen to catch it on something or to put your heel through it while dancing, you can be sure that it can be mended so that the tear will never be noticed. Some of the new silk laces have the delicacy of an etching. Fine chantilly effects are much in favor. New and charming are some conventional patterns in silk lace, including big splashy whorl designs and spider-web effects in slightly stiffened textures. Evening gowns of silk lace are the most important manifestation of the revival of laces. They are handled like fine chiffons or silk skirts, with full helmlines, and softened decolletages featuring dropped shoulder effects, shoulder ruffles and draped treatments. However, there are some new dinner gowns in silk lace which, while they are soft in silhouette, have amusing tailored touches, such as shiwtawl bodices, little round or pointed collars and front closings accepted with vertical ruchings. STYLE NOTES Hindu turban is latest in millinery. Lilacs and purples will carry on into fall woolens. Younger set adores the piquant new off-the-face hats. Coming! Velvet suits for fall with short fitted jackets. Tailored lace jacket-suits are meeting with high success. French women are wearing earrings of tiny jewel-centered flowers. Pleated from head to foot is formula for the newer sheer frocks. Youthful Wraps "Hug-me-tight" capes are youthful little evening wraps of the dolman type. They are usually made of tafetta crushed in bunchy fullness about the neck and shoulders and reach just to the waist in length. Harem Trousers Harem trousers have appeared again in Paris in an evening costume designed by Alix. They are made of fine white silk jersey and velled under a long mantle of dark-blue chiffon. ay Your Co or an Acq By CHERIE NICHOLAS Designers here and abroad are creating the most charming little toques and berets imaginable of velvet. Chic Parisiennes are wearing big floppy velvet berets with their summer frocks. The model shown at the top is a very smart affair just turned out by a leading American milliner. This stitched velvet toque has a huge propeller bow at the back. The brow line, dipping at the right and shallow on the left, is new. Schiaparelli gives us the new draped turban of a white and silver crepe, inspired by an oriental headaddress. The new Agnes aureole hat which has just recently been launched in Paris is creating a big flutter in the fashion world. The model pictured has a back faring brim and tiny crown of lustrous black felt. It is held with a flattering bandeau of braided tango-red velvet. PARISIAN STYLISTS VARYING OLD IDEAS Plain-Coat, Print-Silk Motif Completely Reversed. Out of old ideas many Parisian designers are making new styles, Maggy Rouff, for instance, has completely reversed the plain-coat, print-dress motif. Actually the combination looks like a single frock, so like dresses are the coats which come together in front with no contrasting color showing at the hem. Other Maggy Rouff combination prints and plains have short jackets varying between waist length and three-quarters. It was apparent from the Lavin collection that she is favoring full skirts with inverted pleats both back and front and some with gathers just below the waist line in the style of a few seasons back. Parey is featuring circular skirts, sleeves full from shoulder to elbow and tight from elbow to wrist. Startling Contrasts Lend Smartness to New Styles The life blood of summer, 1935, wardrobes is colors, in combinations that would have seemed wild, indeed, to us a year ago. Unusual and certainly not traditional contrasts are everywhere. A vivid green is often hooked up with a salmony shade of pink. Fuchsia and baby blue; iliac and creme de menthe. Navy is such a leader this year that in order to give it a distinctive vitality, you might even try chartreuse for contrast. Unadulterated white has gone by the boards and you will wear it only when broken by another color. Red is a four-star color with white. You'll even do fashionably by yourself if you select a pastel hat or so to go with your light dresses instead of falling back on one white hat to go with everything. FLASHES FROM PARIS Long suede gloves are again in fashion. Satin is a great favorite in day and evening dress. Ostrich trims appear on advance fall millinery. Interest in Hindu fashions revives the sari of tie-dye Indian silks. Long slender silhouette with low fare is fall forecast. Autumn fabrics accent changeable velvets, also many novelty velvets. Washable novelty cotton weave coats are popular for midseason wear. Newest Handbags The latest handbag fashion concerns very thick handles made of the same leather as the bag itself, stitched and often padded, or of some solid plastic material. Mirror Buttons Appear Plain velvet blouses are fastened with colored square mirror buttons to tone. The blouses are to be worn with tailored suits. copy of The maintenance w In The WEEK'S NEWS CURRENT EVENTS PHOTOGRAPHED FOR THE GAZETTE CO-ED GUIDES—Eleven lovely Northwestern University coeds are acting as pages at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago this summer.
