THE NEGRO NATIONAL EDUCATION- AL CONGRESS
VOL. XIX.
THE NEW NATIONAL EDUCATIONAL CO
Any movement that has for its end and aim the betterment of mankind, is deserving of more than a passing consideration by the people. To become a greater factor in the activities of American life, and a larger contributor to its growth and prosperity, is the hope of the members of the Negro National Educational Congress. If opposition to the Negro, as a citizen and man, be on the increase, there must exist some cause or reason for such opposition—the location and elimination of which is one of the tasks that we have undertaken. We shall be pleased to have the good will and hearty cooperation of all who are in sympathy with a race—struggling against great odds—endeavoring to reach a higher sphere in man's civilization. By thrift, honesty, industry, economy, intelligence, and good deportment, coupled with greater reverence for law and the responsibilities of citizenship, we hope to win and hold the respect and confidence of the people.
THE CONGRESS—ITS OBJECT.
The Negro National Educational Congress, called to meet in Kansas City, Missouri, July 15 to 19, 1913, will devote its entire time to working out some plan or plans whereby conditions of the race may be bettered.
During his half century of freedom the Negro has made marked progress along all lines of human endeavor, and the bope of the race lies in his ability to make greater strides in the future.
This Congress will concern itself not only with the affairs of the men and women of the race of today, but seek to so guide and direct the youth that they may be better prepared than were their fathers and mothers to enter into all of the activities of citizenship and national life.
It is not the purpose of this Congress to supersede, displace, or usurp the plan of any other movement having for its object the betterment of the race, but rather to contribute all possible support in the same direction.
To find some ground of mutual sympathetic and harmonious cooperation upon which the races
may work for the common good, is an effort rich in possibilities and worthy of the time and energy devoted to its development, as intended through this movement. If this Congress succeeds only in awakening interest and changing conditions along one or two neglected lines, it will have well rewarded each and every one who contributes to its success.
As it is one of the penalties of intelligence to burden its possessor with increased responsibilities to one's fellowman, and as the need of developing a higher type of useful and self-relying citizenship becomes the more apparent as the race advances intellectually, the men and women of today cannot escape their indebtedness to their less fortunate neighbors and to their own posterity. The following address was issued at the St. Louis convention in 1910. It was prepared by a committee of the most thoughtful and intellectual men of the race. It should find a place in every Negro home in the land:
An Address To The
Issued by the Negro National Educational Congress, Held at St. Louis, August 25, 26 and 27, 1910. "We, the delegate to the Negro National Educational Congress, commissioned by the President of the United States and the governors of the states which they represent, to assemble in convention and earnestly to consider the ideals which should determine and control the thought and deeds of the people whom we represent, congratulate our country upon its era of peace and prosperity. "While the country is at peace and is prosperous, there are, nevertheless, many grave problems claiming the attention of all serious Americans, among which is the relationship of all mankind under the flag.
"We declare our faith in the democratic form of society in which we live. No other form of society guarantees to the individual the requisite freedom for the maturing of his powers for great

public service, and at the same time secures to the individual the fruit of his own toil.
"Believing that a democratic form of society requires for its members in all things that make for good government, righteous civic life, economic and industrial prosperity, we regard equality of opportunity as the sacred guarantees of a democratic society to each and all of the members.
"We affirm our faith in the following declaration of principles:
FAVOR OWNING OF HOMES.
"We believe that the owning of property gives the people anchorage in community life, that it develops a consciousness of manhood, and that such ownership has moral value since it implies thrift, economy and a sense of responsibility. It makes one an alert useful and cautious citizen in his community. Let eaco American own his own home.
"We believe that the school has been established by society for its own preservation. The needs by society require that the largest and fullest training shall be given to those men and women who are to be leaders of the people. At the same time no child should be denied the opportunity of the best possible elementary education, accompanied by such form of manual training as may be suited to its strength and degree of development. We further believe that vocational training should find a place in all secondary education.
"We believe that the new call, 'Back to the farm,' should become universal. Brain, brawn, a few acres and faith in God are calculated to make any man happy. The rural home, the rural school and the rural church should be made attractive to the youth of the rural community in order that they may be kept from the crowed cities, where are found the sunken multitudes, steeped in crime with lost virtue, without purpose and without purpose and without hope.
"We believe in the spread of temperance as a result of a seed-sowing of a quarter of a century. Only a sober and temperate people can hope for good health, long life and happy homes.
"We believe that disease and crime are far too prevalent among the people, but these must be scientifically studied and proper preventive measures adopted. The hygiene and sanitary conditions must be intrusted to trained officials, and the administration of justice must be committed to unperjudiced men.
"But the church with her kindred institutions, without regard to parish and denominational lines must adjust herself in every preventive and resuce measure to the actual needs of the people in order to save them. Simple, busy lives, in neat, sunny homes, with a frown for idleness, will greatly
lesson both disease and crime.
"Any kind of legislation which wrongs one member of society must ultimately wrong all. The common carriers in some parts of the country, which make ample provision for one part of the traveling public, fail to provide for another part and suffer ladies and children to be placed in the most indecent situations, wrong the entire body of society.
"We indorse any qualifications for suffrage which will give an enlightened electorate. We condemn any legislation or practice which prescribes a qualification for one voter that does not apply to all. Such a denial is entirely undemocratic and fraught with mischief.
"We believe that the press of the country, whether daily, weekly or monthly, exerts immense influence. Too frequently, however, the wower of the press is abused. This Congress, while approving of any and all measures giving freedom to the press, insists that a race should not be held responsible for the crime of an individual of that race by the practice so commonly in vogue in the American press of almost invariably mentioning the race stock of certain races in connection with the crimes of individuals, of those races, thus indicating the race as well as the individuals or at least creating a presumption in the public mind against the race so indicted."

RACE NEWS
Baltimore, Md., July 7.—Many of the friends of Dr. Ernest Lyon, formerly American minister to Liberia, are urging him to enter the fight for the Republican nomination for Congress in the Third district. The seat is now vacant, owing to the recent death of Congressman Konig, a Democrat. There are over 4,000 colored voters in the district, and it also contains the bulk of the foreign vote. With the united support of the colored vote there is every indication that Dr. Lyon would stand a fair chance of securing the nomination. He has not decided whether to enter the fight or not.

THE NEGRO WAITER.
Reinstated in Leading Hotels of St. Louis.
Alas, the Negro, waiter after many years of wandering, has come into his own again, at least in one of our largest cities. A recent dispatch from St. Louis states that the leading hotels and cafes of that city have been turned over to Negro waiters for the first time in over twenty years. They are assured of employment for at least
Dayton, Ohio, July 1 — Judge A. C. Risinger, of Eaton, Chio, in the Common Pleas court to-day rendered a decision in the case of the white Elks against the Negro Elks, granting a perpetual injunction order, restraining the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World from making further use of the name "Elks" or any of the designated or emblematic possessions of the white Elks. The white Elks made application for this injunction last August and the decision has been pending since the hearing of the case, and it is hoped to eventually win the right to use the title of "Elks" as has been done in cases of other Negro secret orders where attempt was made to restrain the use of distinguishing titles, insignias, etc.
Toledo, O., July 1.—In the class of thirty-one young men and women who were presented diplomas at the magnificent new Scott High School was one colored girl, Irene Ambers of Norwood avenue. The nineteen years of Miss Ambres' life have all been lived at Toledo, where her parents, James and Mary Ambers, are well known and respected citizens. Miss Ambers is a product of the local public school system and with a flawless record graduated from the high school in 1911. There had never been a colored graduate of the Normal School in this city and many sought to discourage the young lady from spending further time in school, but she entered upon the course. When time came for Miss Ambers to receive her diploma she was accorded a great ovation not only by her colored friends but by her schoolmates and practically the entire audience. She was the recipient of many beautiful and useful tokens of re-

THE NEGRO WAITER.
Reinstated in Leading Hotels of St. Louis.
Alas, the Negro, waiter after many years of wandering, has come into his own again, at least in one of our largest cities. A recent dispatch from St. Louis states that the leading hotels and cafes of that city have been turned over to Negro waiters for the first time in over twenty years. They are assured of employment for at least five or more months because they are under contract for such a period.
For many years the Negro waiters' services have been gradually dispensed with for various reasons, the principal of which perhaps are his failure to "make time" and to keep posted in the latest methods of service.
Be that as it may, the fact remains that the Negro is a competent servant and his two hundred and fifty years of unremunerative service has made him a natural one.
Unionism, white unionism has and is crowding him out by unfair methods but the reaction must come and it is to be hoped that when it does come the Negro will be ready to respond to the call as they were in St. Louis.
Labor unions are a good thing in that they do more good than harm, but they would do far better if they would lay aside all prejudices and include all whose vocations entitle them to membership. Unions that exclude millions of workers on account of their race or color may naturally expect competition from that source.
The Negro has his faults, but he is not a striker, but conditions have at times forced him to be a strikebreaker.
Every city has its share of strikes and where these strikes are of long duration, the seab is brought in as a substitute for the striker and he is usually the man to get the worst of it. A few years ago the Negro waiters were used as scabs in Denver, but after a few days' employment were released in favor of the strikers. The St. Louis case should serve as one example above all others and that is when they are called upon to act as strikebreakers they should protect themselves by the power of the written contract. The exposure to bodily harm is quite enough without likelihood of being discharged at any minute.

BANK RESOURCES GAIN
COLORADO STATE AND NATION
AL BANKS INCREASE $15,000,000.
State and Savings Institutions Along Increase $5,000,000, Says Official Colorado Report.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Denver.—An increase of more than $5,000,000 in the resources of the 193 state, private and savings banks and trust companies in Colorado is shown in a statement issued by State Bank Commissioner E. W. Pfeiffer. Since February of this year the gain is $500,000, which, occurring the quietest part of the banking year, according to Commissioner Pfeiffer, is indicative of an unchecked growth of prosperity in Colorado.
During the period in which banking institutions of supervision of the state made their gain of $5,000,000, 58 national banks in Colorado increased their resources $10,000,000.
Following are figures taken from the report to show the steady increase in resources of the 139 state banks, 27 private and six savings banks and 21 trust companies which come under the supervision of the state bank commissioner:
Indicted Officials Give Bonds.
Littleton, Colo.—Although Sheriff J. W, McBroom was prepared to arrest the former officials on grand jury indictments, he was forstalled by the appearance of nearly all the indicted persons at the court house, prepared to give bonds for their appearance before Judge Class, August 1.
Four gave bonds and three others offered bonds, but were told that the caplases were not ready. Those who furnished bond are: Robert S. Brown, former county clerk and recorder, named in sixteen indictments; R. C. Williams, county commissioner, six indictments; George Kinkel, former sheriff, twenty-one indictments; Harry Mayberry, former county commissioner, seven indictments.

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS
Some curious causes that contribute toward the prejudice that negroes feel toward labor unions, in addition to their resentment at being excluded from many of the unions, are spoken of by Booker T. Washington, in an article in the Atlantic, in which he shows that economic forces are working toward the elimination of this mutual prejudice. The negro country boy of the south, like country boys everywhere, longs for the city. One of the first and most surprising things that the country boy learns in the city is that work is not always to be had. The average negro laborer in the southern country districts has rarely the experience of looking for work; work has always looked for him. In the southern states, in many instances, the employment agent who goes about the country seeking to induce laborers to leave the plantation is looked upon as a kind of criminal. Laws are made to restrict and even to prohibit his operations. The result is that the average negro who comes to town from the plantations does not understand the necessity or advantage of a labor organization, which stands between him and his employer, and aims apparently to make a monopoly of the opportunities for labor. "Another thing which is to some extent peculiar about the negro in the southern states," says Mr. Washington, "is that the average negro is more accustomed to work for persons than wages. When he gets a job, therefore, he is inclined to consider the source from which it comes. The negro himself is a friendly sort of person, and it makes a great deal of difference to him whether he believes the man he is working for is a friend or an enemy. One reason for this is that he has found in the past that the friendship and confidence of a good white man who stands well in the community, are a valuable asset in time of trouble. For this reason he does not always understand, and does not like, an organization which seems to be founded on a sort of impersonal enmity to the man by whom he is employed."
Suggestions for nominations to several of the District of Columbia offices that heretofore have been given to colored men were made to the president by Bishop Alexander Walters of the A. M. E. Zion church, now living in New York, and the principal director in the last presidential campaign of the National Colored Democratic league. Besides the District places, those in foreign countries also were discussed by the president and Bishop Walters. The District posts that have regularly gone to colored men are recorder of deeds and register of the treasury. For the last named place Bishop Walters' suggestions were George C. Clement of North Carolina and A. E. Patterson of Oklahoma, and for the position of recorder of deeds Alfred B. Cosey of New Jersey and James A. Rose of New York. For assistant register of the treasury Bishop Walters suggested Peter J. Smith of Massachusetts and Ralph Langston of New York.
Selfishness sometimes steps in and usurps control, thereby depriving us of those manly attributes which elevate and ennoble. Human desire is boundless in its pursuits, and avarice in its greed overrides every consideration of another's weal. When love of honesty and justice shall have taken possession of the human heart and become imbedded in human life, our troubles will be easier to bear.—Atlanta Phalanx.
Soventy-seven graduates of the colored high school received their diplomas at the twenty-fifth annual commencement exercises at Baltimore. The diplomas were presented the graduates by Mayor Preston, who congratulated the students upon the successful completion of their course and told the vast audience, composed of relatives and friends of the graduates, how proud they should feel of the achievements of those upon the stage. Harry S. Cummings of the First Branch city council, delivered the address to the graduates. The invocation was made by Rev. A. G. Hill, presiding elder of the African Methodist Episcopal church, Baltimore district, and among the invited guests on the stage was Henry Lincoln Johnson, recorder of deeds, of Washington, D. C.

Pride of race and determination to show that negroes could show business courage equal to white people saved the Peoples Bank and Trust company, a strictly negro bank, Muskogee, Okla., from ruin, and it is running today as usual following a stress that would have wrecked most any bank in the state under similar circumstances. A suit brought by one of the stockholders started an internal strife within the bank that leaked out and started a run. This forced the bank to close its doors. Then the state bank examiner took charge and the bank remained closed all day while angry depositors stormed the outer doors in an effort to get their money out. Meetings were held in every negro church in the city and the negro ministers preached on the subject of the bank They appealed to race pride and to cool judgment. They pointed out that to get panicky and draw out deposits meant to break the bank, sure. For the bank to fall would be a sad commentary upon the negro as a factor in the business world, a thing that the negroes could not afford to have happen. The negroes were advised to let their money stay on deposit and to put in more. This had its effect. While the bank's doors were still closed one negro merchant stood in front of it with $5,000 in money in a bag stating that he was going to deposit it. Several others with big rolls joined him. In the meantime the officers and stockholders of the bank, all negroes, were busy. The bank examiner demanded an assessment of 100 per cent. on the capital stock of $25,000. This was promptly met, and the negro financiers piled on top of the assessment $75,000 more to show good faith. With the permission of the bank examiner the bank was reopened the following day. Another crowd had gathered, but these were depositors trying to get their money into the bank instead of trying to draw it out. The bank had sufficient cash in its vaults at that time to pay every depositor in full, but the money was not demanded and the bank was saved.
The bill introduced in congress by Representative Howard of Georgia providing for separation of the races on street cars in the District of Columbia was criticized at the session of the New England Colored Baptist missionary convention at Washington. E. M. Hewlett of Washington started the argument against the bill when he urged the delegates to use every effort to defeat it. Rev. L. J. Jordan of Philadelphia declared that separate cars were repugnant to any colored man or woman of pride. Revs. G. L. P. Talliafero, E. W. Johnson and W. Bishop Johnson, president of the convention, also delivered addresses attacking the bill. Dr. Johnson told of the recent formation of an organization of representative colored men to keep tab on all legislation aimed at the negro, as well as to keep a watch on the stand that western and northern congressmen take in regard to such measures. He urged that any congressman favoring such legislation be fought at the polls. The protests against the bill came to an end with the passage of a resolution offered by Rev. W. D. Reed of Newport, R. I. The report of the committee on state of the country declares that disfranchisement, lynchings and separate cars are discriminations that the negro should fight. The hope is expressed that President Wilson will live up to his inaugural declaration.
July 6 will be a day long remembered by the colored citizens of Indianapolis. On that day the new Y. M. C. A. building for the colored men's branch was dedicated. The dormitory section, which has accommodations for 101 men, will provide a splendid home for the men who desire to take quarters there. The rooms are provided with electric light, steam heat and individual bed accommodation for each man. The ventilation facilities are good. The charges for the rooms are small. The interest shown in the Tuskegee band was notable. Mr. Stevenson, secretary of the Y. M. C. A. at Tuskegee, and under whose supervision the band travels, said that the band this year is better than ever, and that the selection of their program was drafted to suit the taste of Indianapolis people.

HOUSE ORDERS LOBBY PROBE
INQUIRY OF EXTRAORDINARY SCOPE DECIDED UPON BY CONGRESS.
START PROBE AT ONCE
FOUR DEMOCRATS, TWO, REPUBLI CANS AND ONE PROGRESSIVE ON COMMITTEE.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington, July 10.—A lobby investigation of extraordinary scope was authorized by the House to supplement the Senate probe already under way.
With the passage of the Henry investigation resolution a special committee of seven members was immediately appointed by Speaker Clark with Representative Garrett of Tennessee as chairman. The committee will meet today to make plans for the institution of the probe at once.
While the House investigation was prompted largely by the allegations of Colonel M. M. Mulhall regarding the legislative activities of the National Association of Manufacturers, the resolution as finally adopted so enlarged the scope of the inquiry that all efforts to control members of the House or to influence legislation by any person or organization will be subject to the inquisitorial powers of the committee.
The speaker appointed, with Chairman Garrett of Tennessee, Representatives Cline of Indiana, Russell of Missouri, Roddenberry of Georgia, Democrats; Willis of Ohio, Stafford of Wisconsin, Republicans; Nolan of California, Progressive.
Many of the witnesses involved in the Mulhall charges are already in Washington, summoned to take the stand before the Senate Committee. Among those are several former members of Congress and the officers of the National Association of Manufacturers.
New York.—Deputy United States District Attorney Marshall admitted that he was investigating the activities of David Lamar, with a view to bringing them to the attention of the grand jury if the facts warrant.
FIVE MEN BURN TO DEATH.
Three Thousand Fight Fire on Lark
spur Side of Mount Talmabais.
San Francisco, Calif., July 10.—Five men were burned to death early this morning on the Larkspur side of Mount Tamalpais. Correspondents talked with men who declared they saw the five bodies carried away on stretchers toward Mill Valley. The dead are being brought here.
The women and children of Mill Valleq, the suburb across San Francisco bay, are huddled in terrorized groups in the streets watching the approach down Blythedale canon of the Mount Tamalpais forest fire, which their husbands and fathers, aided by 2,000 men of the United States army and navy, are struggling to check. More than 3,000 men are fighting the fire. The wind slackened somewhat early in the evening, but the flames continued to advance steadily toward the town.
All residents in the fire area, including the 1,500 inhabitants of Mill Valley and the hundreds of others whose homes are scattered along the Tamalpais canions, were warned to seek safety in flight and with them hundreds of tourists poured down from the summer camping districts.

BARBARIC ATROCITIES SAID TO HAVE BEEN PERPETRATED BY BULGAR IRREGULARS.
Belgrade, Servia, July 9.—Five thousand Bulgarian troops, who invaded Servia at Konagevatz, were annihilated when they met the Servian forces and engaged in a desperate battle at the entrance of Zajetars mountain pass. The battle was the most desperate of the last twelve days of fighting. The Servians have recaptured Istip after routing the Bulgarians. A desperate battle was fought with heavy losses, but the Servian guns previously lost were retaken. King Peter has issued a proclamation to his people announcing war.
An official dispatch asserts that the Servians have repulsed the Bulgarians at Zetchar, on the frontier, with heavy losses and also at Vlasina.
Saloniki, July 8.—Father Michel, Superior of the French Catholic Mission at Kilkish, confirms reports of massacres committed in that district by Bulgarian irregulars. In one instance they burned to death 700 men belonging to Kurkut by imprisoning them in a mosque, under which they exploded bombs, setting the building on fire. They had previously assembled the victims' wives and daughters to witness the spectacle. Even more terrible scenes were enacted at Kilkish, Planitza and Raynovo, women also being burned to death. Father Michel asserts that among the irregulars responsible for these atrocities were business and professional men and students from Sofia.
"I AM THE ONY VILLAIN."
Sneers Lamar—"Others Are Actuated by Highest Motives."
Washington.—The Senate lobby investigating committee took a look at Wall street through the spectacles of David Lamar. The dapper operator on the bear side, who admits that he bandied about in the market place the names of men high in Congress, took the committee completely into his confidence. For all the machinations he contrived there was, after all, he swore, but two reasons. He wished to cause an "explosion" which would bring the Wall street men whom he felt were antagonistic to him "into the open" and he wished to insure the re-employment of Edward Lauterbach, his lawyer friend, who had fallen into disfavor with the mighty of the Street.
Although the committee tried to develop that there might have been some other consideration involved, Lamar denied such an allegation as often as it was made. He was on the stand for several hours and although five senators wielded the scalpel at various times they uncovered nothing that Lamar did not wish to reveal. He summed up his whole story in a few words when he said:
"It was the Wall street game I was playing."
Later he added bitterly:
"I am the only villain in Wall street. All the others are actuated by the highest motives and possess the highest ideals."
Banker Gets Jail Term.

UNJUST DISCRIMINATIONS.
The barring of Negroes and Japanese from bathing in the lakes at Washington park and Berkeley lake by the Park Board has brought about a vigorous protest by the Japanese, and while the Negroes have made no great demonstration in the matter, it is said that they, as American citizens and who pay taxes for the maintainance of such public places, will demand of the board why the Constitution is abridged in their case—"taxation without representation." It has been less than a month ago that we were deprived of such privileges from the public bath house, where we were allowed certain days of the week to ourselves. Is it not high time that we, as American citizens and taxpayers should call a halt on such unjust discrimination? As long as we allow such discriminating orders to go unnoticed, it will be no long while before other discriminating orders will be heaped upon us. The Afro-American Protective Association, the People's Sunday Alliance and in fact every organized Negro society in Denver should rise in a solid phalanx against all such discriminations.
MAKE GOOD YOUR CREDIT!
This ought to be the banner to fly at the head of the banner of every loyal Negro Denverite. It would mean much to every institution and business among us. The church, the lodges and newspapers alike would profit by such a motto strictly conformed to. We have known colored business men in Denver who failed because Negroes would not pay their debts. Churches have to beg and solicit funds on the streets because members won't pay their obligations, lodges carry long lists of delinquents and have to finally expel members because they won't pay their dues. Newspapers have to live at a poor ('dying rate' because their subscribers won't pay their subscriptions. '(Pay your debts' ought to be blazoned on the door posts of every house in Denver, on your watch fob and calling cards. The Negro is growing careless about this thing. He is losing friends because people are losing confidence in him financially. Neither his note or bond is worth much nowadays. The Colorado Statesman is not saying this for itself alone. While we need money and would be glad to collect all that is owing to us (drop us a card when to call), but we want to sound a toesin and warn the race. We can't afford to wear fine clothes and shine in society and be known as "dead beats." The doctor, the groceryman, the landlords, the newspaper collectors, the lodges treasurers and church officers, besides the whole business world have their eyes upon us; we can not afford to be derelict; to be rated as N. G., to be put down as C. O. D. The race is making a sad mistake. The Colorado Statesman asks you to "cut out" dodging and come up with the "straight thing." Be a man, pay your debts, look the world in the face. We know it may cut you short some time, but it is better to be short than not to be honest; better not to be liberal than a dead beat. It would mean much more for every organization in Denver if the people of this city would pay their bills. Restaurants and rooming housekeepers and every other business would flourish, the Colorado Statesman would be happy and you would have one of those "won't come off smiles" if you would pay your bills. It would add years to your life and peace to your sleep. Try it for a month or two and see if your scribe is not right and you will never go back to the "call again game" any more.

Trained Nursing as Woman's Occupation
By CELIA K. HUSIK, Milwaukee, Wita.
Nursing the sick is one of the best professions a woman can take up, provided she is fitted for it. The first and the most important requisite is a love for the work. This must be possessed by every girl who is thinking of becoming a nurse. If she lacks this requisite it is best for her to look to some other channel for an occupation.
Patience, intelligence, a sympathetic nature, a cheerful disposition, personal neatness and cleanliness and, above all, a strong, healthy physical constitution are essential for the successful nurse. The ability and the will to carry out strictly all orders from her superiors is another important quality. A pleasant manner and an agreeable voice are helpful and will add to success.
The only way to become an efficient nurse is to enter a hospital. An ordinary school education with a knowledge of good English are essential preliminaries. In the hospital courses of lectures are given, covering the whole scientific and theoretical part of the subject. And in addition the future nurse receives practical, valuable experience in the care and handling of the sick. Two to three years constitute a complete course, after which the nurse must pass a state board examination in order to obtain her license.
During the course of training most hospitals pay a small monthly salary to the undergraduate nurse. After graduation nurses receive in private work from $25 to $35 per week and their board. A particularly capable and intelligent nurse, especially if she possesses executive ability, may in time attain the position of head nurse at some public or private hospital or other institution. These positions pay from $40 to $75 per month and maintenance.
While the pay in the latter case is less, the permanency of the position and the sense of responsibility and authority often make it desirable
Before taking up nursing bear in mind these qualifications: You must have a strong physical constitution, a great love for the work, a sympathetic yet self-controlled and cheerful nature and a strong sense of duty. With these you are bound to become an efficient and successful nurse.
Bachelors Should Be Tagged and Taxed
By JESSIE N. BURNESS, San Francisco
Should bachelors be tagged? By all means, yes, and taxed, too. Also an "open season" should be declared for them, when they shall be fair game for everybody.
The tags cut in some manner to indicate the reason why—say red for voluntary, blue for involuntary, and a common brass tag would properly indicate that common reason, lack of gold.
I'm hardly prepared to go the length of saying this should be made a law. The poor bachelors are kept so busy dodging the laws we now have, that one is tempted to feel sorry for them, but let custom decree the tag, and the thing is done, painlessly.
A good many of 'em are tagged now, though some of 'em don't know it. If you doubt, watch when some hungry news hunter has the luck to put over a story about "Bachelors of Prominence," or "Misfit Fortunes," or something like that. Besides an access of zeal in the dear stalking they are always subject to, you will see his mail double in size, the telephone will ring until he will probably smash it, the callers in his waiting room will remind you of a bread line, and chances are that inside of ten days he will go fishing. He has to. Even a married man couldn't stand the strain.
Perhaps a gentler custom than tagging could be devised, such, for instance, as that in use for "Miss" and "Mrs." If bachelors could know what a protection that is—what a stay and prop, what an insurance of what one wants and against what one doesn't want, they'd beg for it!
Lodgings of Right Sort for Poor Boys
By J. B. NORTON, Kansas City, Mo.
Much is said and written of the manner in which unattached girls and young women are obliged to live in the city when working for a small wage. It might be well to inquire if boys and young men, likewise working for small pay, are much better off in this respect.
Kansas City is endeavoring to provide lodgings of the right sort for the homeless boy who is barely self-supporting. In that city a hotel has been built to accommodate this class of youths.
In October, 1910, a campaign was started and $65,000 was raised for this purpose. One year afterward a building that would accommodate 120 boys was in operation, equipped with all the necessities that a boy should have to aid his physical and mental growth and to instill into him the proper understanding of his position before the world. Here he finds a real home, a large reception room, library, game rooms, gymnasium, shower baths and a night school (furnished by the board of education) presided over by competent teachers—everything, in fact, that a boy should have.
For this he must pay one-half of his income, not to exceed $3 a week. When he has advanced so that he earns $10 a week he is found a boarding place in a good neighborhood and must leave the hotel, thus making room for the poorer boy who is at all times seeking admission.
Cool Drinks Needed for the Hot Season
By Miss Martha Baxter, Poplar Bluffs, Mo.
Now that the hot days have come let us try to have our meals pleasant and healthful at the same time.
Arrange the table in some neat, dainty way and place flowers about the room. Men just come in from the field, tired and hungry never like a lot of flowers standing in their way. So leave the table minus the flowers.
The general diet of vegetables, etc., should be in the plainest way. Always try to have dinner and supper ready when the men come from work and see how they will appreciate any effort for their comfort.
Have some cool drink or some delicacy if possible. Just anything, like lemonade, strawberry, orange or peachade. These are inexpensive and easy to make. Oranges and bananas cut in small pieces mixed with a little sugar make a good salad. A little pineapple flavoring makes a most desirable ingredient.
Any of these are made to taste better if placed in the refrigerator for a few minutes or small pieces of ice may be placed in the glasses. If you do not own a refrigerator some fresh, cool water from the pump will do nicely. Strawberries and cream are about the nicest dish one can serve. Peaches are delicious served this way.

Notes of the Zion Baptist Church.
Notwithstanding the heat last Sun-
day morning, the attendance was
fine, and the congregation seemed to
enjoy the sermon of the pastor. Also
at the evening service a goodly num-
her were present for the communion.
One was added to the membership
and eight persons were fellowshiped
into the church.
Zion is somewhat enthused over the
Prospect of an early move into its
new quarters. The date is set for the
first Sunday in the month of Octo:
ber. ‘The fall rally is so timed as to
be held on the last Sunday in the old
church and the first Sunday in tho
new.
A very generous subscription has
already been secured from the mem-
bership, to be paid in at the time of
the rally, The entire church will be
canvassed and the hope is that each
loyal member of Zion will be heard
from at this effort.
This Sunday evening subject for
the stereopticon service is “The Story
of Daniel.” Being one of the most
beautiful and touching stories in the
Bible, the congregation is assured a
& most helpful lesson and a large
number is expected to be present.
Dr, S. N. Vass of the American
Baptist society will hold an institute
at the church the week of August 10-
15. Afternoon and evening Bible
studies will be given free to the pub-
lic. Everyone is invited to come and

Where Women Run Cars,
‘The suggestion that women may be
employed as street car conductors in
Philadelphia has brought out the fact
that the women of Latin America,
usually thought of as sheltered, retir-
ing and unprogressive, have been do-
ing this kind of work for years. Dur-
ing the war between Chil! and Peru,
when all the men of Chill were need-
ed at the front, women took their
places on the street cars, and San-
tlago, Valparaiso and several other
cities have had women conductors
ever since. ‘
andignantly Denied.
I see by your paper that you have
published in the Duncan news depart-
ment what you called a dance at my
house and the statements made are
entirely false. True, we had a few of
our neighbors to spend the evening
and some pups from Duncan came
entirely without any invitation what-
ever, and when they came they were
riven to understand that they were
not wanted.—Thornbury (Ont,) Herald
Reflector.
‘The Kind He Liked.
I overheard the following conversa-
tion between my little brother and
his playmate: Jack remarked: “You
said you had a ‘bad’ cold; did you
ever have a ‘good’ one, Herbert?”
Herbert answered: “Sure. Once I had
one that kept me home from school.”

United States Leads in Supply
of Great Staples.
Raises Products for Own People and
Many Other Nations—Each Coun-
try and Epoch Has Questions
of Food Supply.
ae Ras hee TN ek ee ee,
from the conditions prevailing in a
newly discovered country, with only a
small area under cultivation, and has
become # producer of food and other
great staple products not only for its
own people, but also for export to oth-
er nations. An equally great change
has taken place with respect to the
different regions of the United States.
As the country has been developed
frontier conditions of living haye re-
ceded, until today, as never before,
the food problems of country and town
are approaching each other, and {t is
no longer the case that the rural com-
munity is, as regards its supply of
staple food, largely independent and
the urban community largely depen-
dent.
Bach must rely on the other, for in
general the farm-grown crop {s milled
and the live stock is slaughtered in
the large establishments where facili
tes are adequate, as they could not be
in the case of home enterprise, And,
indeed, in all economic ways the two
regions are perhaps more naturally in-
terdependent than: ever before. All
this means that many problems re-
lated to food demand are studied in
order that the best use may be made
of agricultural food crops by the far
mer who grows them, the manufac:
turer who converts the raw material
Into food products, the merchant who
supplies the food to the household and
the housewife who selects and pre-
Dares it for the family table.
Some of the problems which pertain
to this subject have been studied by
the Federal department of agriculture
and C. F. Langworthy, has compiled
the data regarding food conditions as
a whole, the characteristics of the
American diet and the special prob-
lems of housekeepers in both country
and town. The majority. of persons
set their pleas of the food habits of a
race or region from popular writings
and often the source of information {s
inaccurate or incomplete. If a writer
states that the diet in New England
fs pork and beans and brown bread.
or that in the south {t 1s corn meal
and pork, every one knows that the
statement 1s very inadequate. With
the question of diet in less familiar
regions, the discrepancy is not so ob:
vious.
It 4s often said and is generally be-
leved that the diet in the United
States is generous and that the range
in variety of food products 1s unusu-
ally large. The dietary combines many
customs and food habits of the races
which haye helped to make up the
population, but in {ts general charac:
ter it { British, as 1s natural, for the
bulk of the earlier settlers were from
Great Britain and brought the cus
toms and manners of the old home
with them, “adapted them to the new
country, and passed them on to the
succeding generations. As time
has passed marked changes in the
character of the diet have taken place,
owing largely to tmproved methods of
cultivation of food crops, to better
methods of transportation and storage,
to’improvements in milling and other
manufacturing processes which per.
tain to food, to improvement in house
construction and kitchen appliances
and to similar factors. Whether the
value of the daily diet has changed
when considered from the standpoint
of the amount of nutritive material
supplied {s another matter, and one
which 1s more difficult to decide.
As an illustration of changed food
conditions, facts relating to the diet
in public institutions may be of in:
terest, as {t seems fair to say that
such a ration bears the same rela
tion to the food habits of any one
period as does a corresponding one ts
those of another. In an account o!
the diet In a large fnstitution in Bos
ton in 1850 a very simple ration was
supplied {n which bread, molasses, po
tatoes and salt pork were the staples
In recent studies carried on in the
same city in a similar Institution the
ration is much more varled and con
tains many articles, such as oatmeal
fresh and dried fruits, tapioca and
sago, which would have been consid
ered luxuries {n most homes in 1850
It ts not without interest to consid
er in more detail some of the factors
which have modified dietary habits
In northern regions of the United
States, in earlier times, the vegetable
supply in the summer was fairly abun
dant, but in the winter was limited tc
a few varieties, chiefly root crops
which were of good keeping quality
Eggs, salt meats and less commonly
poultry were staple summer foods, but
fresh beef, mutton and pork were mors
abundant in winter than in summer
because they could be kept in good
condition frozen. The lack of variety
‘of vegeable foods in winter and o
fresh meat in summer was withou'
doubt the reason for the great abun
dance of preserves and pickles whict
every housewife deemed necssary, an¢
for the great number of kinds of pastry
cake and similar dishes: In othe:
provements in crop growing, transpor-
tation, storage and marketing of foods
there is much less seasonal variation
in the food supply and consequently
much more uniformity in the diet at
different times of the year.
In considering the human race, as a
whole, there are three great epochs in
man’s diet, namely; ‘The early hunting
period, in which man depended entire-
ly on @ natural supply of both animal
and vegetable food; the cooking pe-
riod, In which man still used a nat-
ural supply of food, but prepared it for
use with the aid of heat, and thé so-
called cibicultural or food producing
period—that is, the period in which
mun has depended upon the cultiva-
tion of both flocks and herds and field
and garden crops to supplement a wild
supply of food.
Is Is easy to see there is a press
agent at work in the department of
x agriculture. For
Warm Bread he comes to bat
for All. with two wonder-
ful tales, vibrant
with exciting news interest. The first
announces the startling discovery by
the omniscient bureau of chemistry in
Secretary Houston's department of a
method by which “wrapped bread”
can be warmed.
“The experts found,” says the an-
nouncement, “that If a cold wrapped
loaf is unwrapped and placed in a
pan in the oven, in good medium heat
for ten minutes, it will be as good as
fresh, crisp without and tender with-
in.”
‘The other dissertation touches upon
an eyen more important Item of house-
hold economy—“how to keep eggs
from cracking.” To show how {mpor-
tant this problem is, the press agent
records the fact that out of 1,532,275,
200 shipped into New York last year,
137,804,768 were broken. So Secre-
tary Houston has put the food re-
search laboratory to work on this
problem, and they are shipping eggs
to all quarters of the country, by par-
cel post and otherwise, in an effort to
find the best way to ship them, with-
out breaking. No results have yet
been announced.

| London’ marks another step in the too
|trequently. repeated history of tho
/American heiress who marries a for-
eign nobleman. Other disappoint:
ments have been hers, but this social!
defeat has been the greatest of all.
Fortunately, the Countess Szecheny!
fas not, according to her intimate
friends, suffered disillusion in love,
one defeat which many heiresses have
wuffered. The other defeats—lack of
social prominence, lack of social suc:
cess, disappointment in being a
“countess,” and of nobility and titles
in general—have been hers.
Countess Szechenyi was Miss
Gladys Vanderbilt. She was married
in January, 1908, to Count Laszio
Szechenyi, a Hungarian noble. Love.
not money, was supposed to be the
inspiration of the engagement. It
-was Gladys Vanderbilt's beauty and
charm and not her father’s millions
that are supposed to have won the
foreign nobleman.
‘The Szechenyi family were not as
poor as the noble families of Europe
sometimes are. They hadlands, cas-
(les, money. Their wealth was small,
according to American standards of
wealth, but they were not even as
“land poor” as many nobles, who own
land but are not able to pay for its
lapkea It Is quite possible that the
‘marriage of Miss Vanderbilt to Count
Szechenyi really was a love mateh.
Disillusions started directly after
the wedding. This time it was not
the disillusion of love. But the dis:
‘illusions nevertheless were great.
The first disappointment came in
Budapest, after several months of
travel. Instead of being received with
open arms, as she had expected,

as if she had been any other countess
in any other capital, or even in New
York. To be sure, people were anx-
ious for a glimpse of her, but they
were not the people whom she cared
to know. They were idle curlosity
seekers, for the most part, and news-
paper reporters. Beggars and charity
seeking people sought an audience;
beggars were more insistent than in
America. But nobility and royalty
left her alone.
‘After a short visit In Budapest the
count and countess went to Castle
Szechenyi, in Oermezoe, Hungary.
Oermezoe is a small village near
Kaschau, Upper Hungary, and 1s over
a hundred miles from Budapest.
And the castle proved the worst
disappointment of all, so far. Instead
of a wonderful castle, a castle of
dreams, it was a rambling, old fash-
ioned structure. The grounds were
beautiful, but the castle itself was
old and weather beaten, The interior
was furnished with various kinds of
furniture, nearly all old, but not real
ly antique. It was dark, dismal.
Ever since her marriage Countess
Szecheny! wanted to be presented at
court in Vienna. Millions may be
helpful. They may seem even indis-
pensable at times. But they do not
‘give one court entries. Countess
‘Szecheny! was ineligible. She and
the count did all they could, but she
‘could not gain real acquaintanceship
‘to the inner circle of the Austrian
‘court.
This snubbing by royalty as been
the greatest disillusion of all for the
American girl.
| In the five years since her marri-
age Countess Szechenyi has done
everything in her power to gain ad-
mittance into the court circles of Hun-
gary and Austria, All in vain. Mil-
lions have been spent on charities and
on entertainments.
Count Szecheny! himself at last 1s
disheartened. He has spent much
money in the Balkan war. His small
fortune is gone, Some intimate friends
say that he still wishes his wife to
change her mind and move back to
Vienna. Others say that he has ex:
patriated himself for love of his wife
and his two children. For in spite of
the many disillusions that come when
an American heiress and a titled for-
elgner marry, love between the Szech-
enyis has still remained as firm as
ever, according to all reports.

THE PRESIDENT
Mr. WNson Delivers Address at
Gettysburg Celebration.
DRAWS LESSON FROM BATTLE
Declares Great Army of the People
Must Fight Peacefully to
Perfect the Nation
All Love.
OF the Hattie of Gettysburg was made
especially notable by an address de-
livered by President Woodrow Wilson.
In his audience were many thousands
of the veterans who fought in the
great battle, as well as a great throng
of other visitors.
‘The president's address follows:
Briends and Fellow Citizens: I need
not tell you what the battle of Gettys-
burg meant. These gallant men in
blue and gray sit all about us here.
Many of them met here upon this
ground in grim and deadly struggle.
Upon these famous fields and hillsides
their comrades died about them. In
their presence it were an impertinence
to discourse upon how the battle went,
how it ended, what it signified! But
50 years have gone by since then and |
{ crave the privilege of speaking to
you for a few minutes of what those |
50 years have meant. |
‘What have they meant? They have
meant peace and union and vigor, and |
the maturity and might of a great na-
tion. How wholesome and healing the
peace has been! We havo found one
another again as brothers and com-
rades in arms, enemies no longer, gen-
erous friends rather, our battles long
past, the quarrel forgotten—except |
that we shall not forget the splendid
valor, the manly devotion of the men |
then arrayed against one another, now
grasping hands and smiling into each |
other's eyes. How complete the union
has become and how dear to all of us,
how ungiéstioned, how benign and
majestic, as state after state has been
added to this great family of free
men! How handsome the vigor, the
maturity, the might of the great na-
tion we love with undivided hearts;
how full of large and confident prom-
lee that a life will be wrought out
that will crown its strength with gra-
cious justice and a happy welfare that
will touch all alike"with deep content-
ment! We are debtors to those 50
crowded years; they have made us
heirs to a mighty heritage.
Nation Not Finished.
But do we deem the nation com-
plete and finished? These venerable
men crowding here to this famous
field have set us a great example of
devotion and utter sacrifice. ‘They
were willing to die that the people
might live. But their task {s done.
Their day is turned into evening. They
look to us to perfect what they estab- |
Ushed. Their work is handed on to
us, to be done in another way but riot
in another spirit. Our day is not over;
{t 1 upon us in full tide.
Have affairs paused? Does\ the
nation stand still? Is it what the 60
years have wrought since those days”
of battle finished, rounded out, and
completed? Here is a great people,
great with every force that has ever
beaten in the life blood of mankind.
And it is secure. ‘There 1s no one
within its borders, there {is no
power among the nations of the earth,
to make it afraid. But has it yet
squared itself with {ts own great
standards set up at its birth, when it
made that first noble, naive appeal to
the moral judgment of mankind to
take notice that a government had
now at last been established which
was to serve men, not masters? It is
secure in everything except the satis-
faction that its life is right, adjusted
to the uttermost to the standards of
righteousness and humanity. The
ays of sacrifice and cleansing are
not closed. We have harder things
to do than were done in the heroic
days of war, because harder to see
clearly, requiring more vision, more
calm balance of judgment, a more
candid searching of the very springs
of right.
Tribute to Thelr Valor.
Look around you upon the field of
Gettysburg! Picture the array, the
fierce heats and agony of battle, col-
umn hurled against column, battery
Dellowing to battery! Valor? Yes!
Greater no man shall see in war; and
self-sacrifice, and loss to the utter-
most; the high recklessness of exalt-
ed devotion which does not count the
cost. We are made by these tragic,
epic things to know what it costs to
make a nation—the blood and sacri-
fice of multitudes of unknown men
lifted to a great stature in the view
of all generations by knowing no limit
to their manly willingness to serve.
In armies thus marshaled from the
ranks of free men you will see, as it
‘were, a nation embattled, the leaders
and the led, and may know, !f you
will, how little except in form its
action differs In days of peace from |
its action in days of war.
May we break camp now and be at
pase? Are the forces that fight for the
Nation dispersed, disbanded, gone to
their homes forgetful of the common
cause? Are our forces disorganized,
without constituted leaders and the
might of men consciously united be-
cause we contend, not with armies, but
with principalities and powers and
wickedness in high places. Are we
anantent to ile atill? Does our union
confidence in choosing what we shal
do? War fitted us for action, and ac
tion never ceases.
‘Our Laws the Orders of the Day.
I have been chosen the leader o
the Nation. I cannot justify the cholcc
by any qualities of my own, but 60 11
has come about, and here I stand
Whom do I command? The ghostly
hosts who fought upon these battle
fields long ago and are gone? These
gallant gentlemen stricken in years
whose fighting days are over, thelt
glory won? What are the ordera for
them, who rallies them? I have in my
mind another host, whom these set
free of ctvil strife in order that they
might work out in days of peace and
settled order the life of a great na-
tion, ‘That host {s the people them-
selves, the great and the small, with-
out class or difference of kind or
race or origin; and undivided in inter-
est, if we have but the vision to guide
and direct them and order their lives
aright in what we do. Our constitu-
tions are their articles of enlistment.
The orders of tho day are the laws
upon our statute books. What we
strive for is their freedom, their right
to lift themselves from day to day and
behold the things they have hoped
for, and so make way for still better
days for those whom they love who
are to come after them. The recruits
are the little children crowding in.
‘The quartermaster’s stores are in the
mines and forests and fields, in the
shops and factortes. Every day some-
thing must be done to push the cam-
paign forward; and it must be done
by plan and with an eye to some great
destiny.
How shall we hold such thoughts tn
our hearts and not be moved? I
would not have you live even today
wholly in the past, but would wish to
stand with you in the light thar
streams upon us now out of that
great day gone by. Here is the na-
tlon God has builded by our hands.
What shall we do with {t? Who stands
ready to act again and always in the
spirit of this day of reunion and hope
and patriotic fervor? The day of our
country’s life has but broadened into
morning. Do not put uniforms by.
Put the harness of the present on.
Lift your eyes to the great tracts of
life yet to be conquered in the inter
est of righteous peace, of that :pros-
perity which les in a people's hearts
ind Sudlasts all Wark &nd errors ot
men. Come, let us be comrades and
soldiers yet to serve our fellow men
in quiet counsel, where the blare of
trumpets 1s neither heard nor heeded
and where the things are done which
make blessed the nations of the world
in peace and righteousness and love.
LOOK TO RUSSIAN OIL FIELDS
Are Certain to Play an Important Part
In Furnishing Power for
Battleships.
In discussing the fact that the use
of ofl instead of coal as fuel in the
English navy 1s under consideration
it 1s time Russia should pay serious
attention to this question. If England
1s replacing {ts own cheap coal by the
more expensive foreign product, there
must be important advantages on the
side of naphtha, and in the future
Russian fleet the part to be played by
this fuel will be a most important one,
the Novoe Vremya says. Many mills
and factories have gone over to
naphtha as fuel and the consumption
is increasing every year.
Russia owns immense oll fields and
it could be the chief supplier of the
world. The need of organization in
the business is recognized by the
government and a number of special
meetings have been held for discuss-
ing the subject. New conditions have
been laid down for the exploitation of
government territories, and the regu-
lations for investigations have been
changed. Some territories known as
being rich in ofl have been closed to
private enterprise, such as the Ap-
sheron peninsula, near Baku, and vari-
ous islands of the Caspian sea, as well
as some territories in the Transcas-
pian Ural and Gerghana districts, and
others in the north of Russia and SJ-
beria, amounting to millions of acres.
‘The reason for this action is the wish
to preserve these districts from ex-
haustion. :
Another question concerns the mat-
ter of investigation. It is quite neces-
sary that the right of investigation be
granted on a large scale, and not only
far comparatively small lots of ground.
where the investigation might not pay.
‘The government {s aware of this fact,
and, according to the new regulations
the plots of ground allotted for inves-
tigation are to be increased tenfold.
‘The most advisable system is to
grant concessions that would induce
capitalists to place their money in
such undertakings. Under the new
regulations regarding the investigation
of naphtha districts, the government
proposes to publish geological de-
scriptions of the various districts.
Ready Wit Saved Situation.
A very laughable incident once oc-
curred in the house of commons. An
Irish member haying risen was as-
safled hy loud cries of “Spoke!
Spoke!” meaning that having spoken
once already he had no right to do
so a second time. He had evidently
a second speech struggling in his
breast for an introduction into the
world, when seeing after remaining
for some time on his legs, that there
wag not the slightest chance of being
suffered to deliver a sentence of it,
he observed with !mperturbable grav-
{ty and in rich Tipperary brogue: “If
the honorable gintlemin suppose that
I was going to spake again they are
quite mistaken. I merely rose for the
purpose of saying that I had nothing
more to say on the subject.” The
house was convulsed with laughter
for a few seconds afterward at the
ready wit of the Hibernian M. P.

A pitiful sight indeed 1s this, of a member of the G. A. R. who, came un.
scathed through the three days’ fighting of the greatest battle of the Civil
war, overcome by the heat at the reunion of Gettysburg survivors, and being
led off the field to medical aid by a couple of young guardsmen.
Many were the stories told and in-
numerable were the incidents, both
pathetic and humorous, which marked
the great reunion of the Union and
Confederate veterans on the Gettys-
burg battlefield. Commemorating the
fiftieth anniversary of the most stub-
bornly contested battle of the Civil
war, fragments of the hosts which
faced each other in that confiict gath-
ered to renew old acquaintances and
to recount the deeds of other days.
Here 1s a story which was told by
A. T. Dice, vice-president of the Read-
ing railway:
Once upon a time there were a vet-
eran in gray and a veteran in blue.
‘They came to Gettysburg and in the
course of events and visits to hotels
they happened to meet. They looked
oxer the sights of Gettysburg and the
monuments of the field. But they
found they must part.
‘The one in blue lived in Oregon;
the one in gray in New Orleans. They
went weeping together to their sta-
tion and passed by train after train,
deferring the parting that must come.
Just what they said, just how they
reached the final grand idea of the
meeting, Mr. Dice did not know.
But, however, yesterday they finally
decided that the time for parting had
come. The one from Oregon could
not figure how to reach home via New
Orleans and his gray comrade, while
willing to see the west, didn’t have
the money for a ticket.
‘They lined upon on the platform as
their trains stood waiting and then
before the crowd, they slowly stripped
oft their uniforms and exchanged
them there while the curious flocked
to see them.
‘The Oregonian who came proudly to
town with a coat of blue, went as
proudly away with one of gray and
the veteran from Louisiana who boast-
ed the gray of the south sat with
swelling chest in his new uniform of
blue.
James H. Lansberry of St. Louis,
Mo., who enlisted In the Third Indiana
cavalry from Madison, Ind., recited to
his comrades the details of his cap-
ture in the town of Gettysburg by
Confederates 50 years ago. Following
the skirmish Just outside of town
which marked the opening of what
was to be a world-famed engagement,
he had been detailed to assist in car
rying a wounded officer to the old
seminary in Gettysburg. While in
town frantic women flocked about him
and begged that he tell of the battle.
He remained to tell the story, with the
result that he had to spend several
days in following the Confederate
army as a prisoner. After tramping
50 miles over rough country without
shoes hé succeeded in escaping and
finally made his way back to Gettys-
burg, where he remained till August

Harry K. Thaw has come to the
financial rescue of Gen. Daniel B.
Sickles from his cell in Matteawan.
He sent a letter to Chairman Schoon-
maker, having charge of the celebra-
tion of the fiftieth anniversary o fthe
battle of Gettysburg, in which $1,000
in cash was Inclosed. In the letter
‘Thaw wrote that he felt the deepest
sympathy for General Sickles because
of the misfortunes that had come to
him in his old age. This sympathy
the writer declared, was heightened
by the fact that Thaw had two uncles
ip the Union army
oae camp is tus Of unexpected
‘meetings. Every day brings forth nu-
merous meetings between men who
have not seen one another for many
years: Many are commonplace, but
some are extraordinary. For in-
stance, here {s one:
I. D. Munsee of Erie county, Penn-
sylvania, a soldier in the 111th Penn-
sylvania, was captured by the con-
federates at Peachtree Creek, Ga.,
when he was one of Sherman's army
on the celebrated march to the sea.
He was being conveyed to the rear
by a confederate soldier when the
unjop batteries opened fire upon the
party among whom he was a pris-
oner. The man who was guarding
Munsee was hit and fell, knocking
Munsee down and lying on top of
him.
Seeing his chance of escape, Mun-
see lay very still under the uncon-
sclous confederate while the battle
raged around them. That night he
slipped from under the body and es-
caped to the union lines.
“I thought that fellow was dead,”
sald Munsee, “but I saw him today.
Poor feHow, his mind’s bad, and he
didu’t recognize me, but I was sure of
him. I couldn't even get his name, but
I'm goin over later to the Georgia
camp and try to find out whohe is.”
One of the most interesting places
fn camp was the lost and found bu-
reat, located under the benches in the
big tent. Everything found on the
grounds was brought thercaand thdu-
sands applied every day for missing
articles.
There were at least 100 crutches
piled up in the bureau, dozen or so ap-
plicants having called for them. Those
who come to redeem their lost
crutches seldom can recognize them
and most of them go away with some
body else's.
‘There was one wooden leg also ly-
ing unclaimed. It was brought in by
‘a Boy Scout, who had found it under
‘a tree.
Several sets of false teeth were
found.
A grandson of Francis Scott Kev
composer of “The StarSpangied Ban-
ner,” fs here. He is John Francis Key
aged elghty-two, of Pikeville, Md., an!
he is a veteran of the Second Mary
land infantry of the confederate army
Wearing a suit of gray, Key came
into town, weak and almost dropping.
He has been in failing health, but de- |
clared he was “going to see Gettys:
burg on this occasion or dic.” '
One of the oldest veterans in the
big camp is Captain W. H. Fleig of
Houston, Texas, who was ninety yeara
of age on his last birthday, February
22. During the war he served with
distinction in the marine department.
of the confederate navy. Captain
Flelg is one of the best preserved
men in camp and {s more active than
many of the other veterans a score of
years less advanced.
Wearing a tattered uniform of
gray, Alexander Hunt of Virginia was

streets of the town. Mr. Hunter was

their feelings of friendship.
‘They kept it up for hours and vis-
{ted practically every “reb” tent.
‘Their reception was as warm as their
greeting.
A remarkable coincidence of the
camp was the meeting of two men of
exactly the same name, coming from
towns of the same name, but in differ.
ent states. One fought on the union
side in the battle of Gettysburg, and
the other with the confederates.
‘These two men are John Carson of
Burlington, N. J., and John Carson of
Burlington, N. C.
They met by the merest chance.
The Jersey Carson was walking along
one of the streets, and saw a man in
gray. Just to be friendly, the Jersey
man stopped him and gave him a
‘greeting. It was not until they had
talked for several minutes that they
discovered their names were identical,
One bearded veteran of an Illinois
regiment told of an incident that hap-
pened 50 years ago.
“As we rode through Gettysburg
‘that last timo,” he said, “I remember
a little girl stopped my horse and said
she wanted to give me a bouquet. I
got down and she pinned a ribbon—a
Iittle purple ribbon to my coat. ‘Wear
that in the next battle you go into,”
she eaid. .
“We're not going to have any more
battles around here,’ I told her.
“Yes, you are,’ she insisted. ‘Those
“hills back there are full of rebels.’
“I wore that purple ribbon through
the battle. I never saw the girl after-
ward, but I've kept that ribbon, and
I's back at home in Illinois today.”
A striking contrast is seen in the
menu provided for the soldiers fifty
years ago and what they enjoyed this
year:
1863—Breakfast—Hardtack, bacon,
beans and coffee,
Dinner—Bacon, beans, hardtack and
coffee,
Supper—Beans, hardtack, bacon
and coffee:
1913—Breakfast—Puffed rice, fried
eggs, fried bacon, cream potatoes,
fresh bread, hard bread, butter and
coffee.
Dinner—Fricassee chicken, peas,
corn, ice cream, cake, cigars, fresh
bread, hard bread, butter, coffee, iced
tea.
Supper—Salmon salad, macaroni
and cheese, fresh bread, butter and
coffee.
| When the house of representatives
recently undertook to name a commit-
‘tee of its members to represent it at
‘the reunion of the blue and gray at
Gettysburg it was found that not a
‘veteran of the Civil war sat on the Re-
publican side of that body. The only
Union. veterans in the house, three in
number, are all Democrats, and six
veterans of the Confederate army also
sit on that side. In the senate, how-
ever, there are six Confederate veter-
ans ‘on the Democratic side and six
Union veterans on the Republican side.
As indicating the passage of time, it
today in congress more yeterans of
the Spanish-American war than of the
Civil war. Nineteen members of the
senate are veterans of the war with
Spain. One member of the house, who
has not seen war service at all, served
five years In the signal corps of the
army as a private, and Delegate
Quezon of the Philippines was a staff
officer under Aguinaldo during the
Philippine rebellion.

Inly 2.
it was on this day a half century
ago that God gave me strength to
serve my country and my maker bet-
ter than I ever had been able to serve
them before.
It was upon this day in '63 that L
lost my leg and did my little part by
the mercy of God to preserve the
Union.
July 2, 1863, broke hot and clear.
Just as in the early hours today a mor
ten sun poured out of a sky but a
trifle overclouded. I had _ retired
shortly after midnight the previous
evening and slept the quiet, dreamless
sleep that is generally attribute to
babes.
Last night 1 enjoyed Just the same
kind of sleep. But that is to be ex-
pected of a young fellow who at nine
ty-three {s still able to read without
his glasses, eh?
Many men who came today to
shake my hand told me they were too
busy to do so 50 years ago—that their
whole hearts and minds were
wrapped up in the conflict to come.
“I hid in a barn when I discovered
that Confederates had arrived tn town,
but I left it when it was peppered by
infantry fire and concealed myself at
the mouth of an alley,” said Lansber-
ry. “While I remained in the alley
two of my comrades attempted to dart
across the street to another alley
with a hope of escaping from town.
They got to the middle of the street
when guns of Confederates stationed
at street intersections cracked and
they fell in a heap. I was soon found
and disarmed.”

THE HAT
FOR the mother or big sister who is anxious to do millinery work at home there are models which may be attempted with every chance of success, especially in hats for children's wear. Shapes, as a rule, are becoming to start with. If the home milliner will be satisfied to copy the work of professional milliners at first, and not attempt original designing until copying has trained her taste, she will be able to make certain kinds of hats that will pass muster anywhere.
Here are three pretty hemp hats. They are the work of special designers of headwear for children. They look quite simple but they are the result of trained knowledge and expert skill in the making of this particular kind of millinery. Any one can copy them successfully, but everyone cannot originate hats equally good.
Select a shape that is becoming to the little miss whose needs are to be filled, and be careful to get a hat that fits. This is half the battle. Choose an attractive color—they are rather gay this season—or select a white or natural straw color. Any one of the methods of trimming shown here will add to the becomingness of the hat, since none of them interfere with its outlines.
The simplest trim consists of a band of soft wide ribbon—Alice blue, perhaps. At the front a flat bow of four loops is centered with a buckle made of tiny June roses. Sew this trimming to place and avoid that fault which amateurs most often fall into—don't sew it too flat to the shape.
A childish and fascinating method of trimming is shown in the hat adorned with a wreath of large ox-eyed daisies and three upstanding bows of messaline ribbon. These bows consist of two loops each, one loop about half as long as the other. The heart of the bow is finished with two small puffs of ribbon. Tack the bows to the shape with the taller loops standing up and the shorter extending to the upturn of the brim. It will not be necessary to wire the loops because they are supported by the crown to which they are fastened with a few stitches.
The most original of the three designs is shown with a plaited ribbon and fancy cord used to form the band and "stick up." A silk cord is braided in three strands and applied to the accordion-plaited ribbon which surrounds the crown. A fan or wing at the side is made by sewing three rows of the plaited ribbon to a small piece of rice net cut into the proper shape and wired at the edge. The plaited cord is sewed to this, following its outlines. When this is done a short length of cord is left free to form the knot which finishes the trimming.
FOR SEA BATHING OR MOTOR
Here Is Combination Headwear That Is Pretty and Has Additional Merit of Cheapness.
If you love to sea bathe and also to motor and cannot afford to buy distinctive caps for each sport, there is a new combination in headwear perfectly suited to your purse. It is an affair in white rubber having a gored crown and the three-inch brim finished with rows of machine stitching which distinguishes the regulation beach or steamer cap, and, like that familiar article, is trimmed with a band and a bow, also in rubber. The lining of the crown forms an inside cap of rubber which, instead of being pushed upward, is drawn downward, fits closely about the head and protects the half from the water, while the brim protects the eyes from the sun's glare. Without the hat, the cap may be used for motoring in fine weather as it is light and sheds the dust, but when traveling during a high wind, it is better to use the tight-fitting cap without the upper section.
Chin Ribbons on Hats.
Satin chin ribbons are fastened to some of the white straw hats for little girls. The ribbon, in pale pink or blue, is attached to the inside of the hat brim, close to one ear, with a small rosette. It is looped in a permanent bow under the chin and fastens under a rosette at the other side of the hat brim. These soft chin ribbons are especially becoming to the dainty, pretty type of face.
Gifts for Bridesmaids.
One little bride, with more ingenuity than money, made photograph frames from material like her wedding dress, placed therein her portrait and that of her fiance, then had the whole thing mounted under glass with a small gilt rim of picture frame molding. Her malds were delighted with the gifts.
Hairpin Holder
A hairpin holder for the handbag or the traveling bag is made of suede and holds a full package of hairpins of medium length or large size. It is the shape and length of the package of hairpins and the top clasps down much like a case of scissors.
Ribbon Flowers on Parasols.
Small bunches of black and white satin rosebuds appear on the edge of one of the bibs and upon the handle of smart parasols. Medium large pink ribbon roses and foliage are arranged in wreath form around some parasols.

Cutting Beneath Lace
In cutting away the good beneath lace insertion one is very likely to cut the lace itself. This can be obviated, however, if a narrow cardboard, pointed at one end, is slipped between the lace and goods while cutting.
Flowers.
In selecting flowers for wedding decorations the white English stock should not be forgotten. This, because of its close-growing blossoms, gives the very white effects so desirable in either church or home weddings.
GIVE THOUGHT TO GARNISHING
Summer Salads Appetizing or the Reverse, According to How This Detail Is Attended To.
Salads arranged in a border of hard boiled eggs, plickled beets, cold boiled carrots and slices of potato cut in fancy forms—hearts and circles and rings and triangles—are too ornate to be in good taste. But the ungarnished dish is almost as unappetizing.
Summer garnishes should always be fresh, crisp and dainty. Watercress, fresh parsley, lettuce heart leaves, capers and small radishes, crisp and cold, all form appropriate and appetizing garnishes for meat, fish and vegetable dishes.
Another way of garnishing is by combining two dishes. For instance, if hashed brown potatoes are to be served with a hash of lamb and peppers, place the meat hash in the center of the dish and arrange the potatoes neatly about it. Creamed fish can be piled in the center of the platter, creamy mashed potatoes can be arranged about it, and the whole can be browned in the oven—with a few buttered bread crumbs sprinkled over the dish—for 10 to 15 minutes. Bacon can be used as a garnish to liver or poached or fried eggs. It should be broiled, crisp and dry, and should be neatly put on the serving dish; nothing is more unsightly than greasy, limp, half-cooked bacon piled hit or miss on a dish.
PACKING THE PICNIC BASKET
Small Amount of Care in This Makes All the Difference When Supper Is Served.
Almost as much depends on the packing of the picnic basket as on the making of the picnic fare. For a moderate amount of money many things can be bought to make the work of packing the basket easy. Thermos bottles for cream and milk, special sandwich boxes, paper sets of doilies, napkins and tablecloths, paper plates and saucers to match and paper cups can all be bought.
A menu for a hearty cold picnic supper is as follows: Cold broiled chicken, stuffed tomatoes with lettuce and mayonnaise, currant jelly, buttered rolls, ice coffee and strawberry or raspberry shortcake. Each stuffed tomato can be wrapped in a damp cloth, the chicken can be packed in a paper lined box and the rolls can be carried in a box or basket. The two layers of cake for the shortcake can be carefully wrapped in a napkin. The berries, prepared with sugar, cream to whip for the shortcake and to use for the coffee, the coffee itself and the mayonnaise dressing for the salad can all be carried in fruit jars; although the cream, if there is a thermos bottle, had better be carried in that.
Macaroni Croquettes.
Cook two-thirds cup of macaroni broken into small pieces in boiling salted water until tender, drain and rinse in cold water. Melt two tablespoonfuls butter, add two tablespoonfuls flour, one tablespoonful of curry powder, one-fourth teaspoonful salt, and cook until frothy. Add gradually one cupful of milk, stir in while boiling one-half cup grated cheese and the macaroni. Turn into a dish and when thoroughly cold shape into balls or flat cakes. Roll in sifted crumbs, dip in beaten egg, diluted with two tablespoon water and roll again in crumbs. Fry in a basket in deep fat, drain on paper and serve at once.
Soda Biscult Without Milk
One quart of flour, two heaping tablespoons butter chopped up in the flour, two cups cold water, two teaspoons cream tartar sifted thoroughly with flour, one teaspoon soda, dissolved in boiling water, a little salt. When flour, cream of tartar, salt and butter are well incorporated stir the soda into the cold water and mix the dough very quickly, handling as little as may be. It should be just stiff enough to roll out. (Stiff soda biscuits are always failures.) Roll out half an inch thick with a few rapid strokes, cut out, bake at once in a quick oven.
To Clean Light Woolens
Make a mixture of cornmeal, a handful of borax and half a cake of magnesia. Mix this dry, and scrub the goods with it. To clean wool shawls, jackets, etc., sprinkle the mixture over the garment, place inside a sheet folded several times, and beat lightly. It is surprising how much the borax assists in the cleaning process. Leave for several hours and shake out the dust and dirt in the open air. It will also clean light felt hats. Use a soft brush.
Maple Cup Custards.
Beat three eggs slightly, add a pinch of salt and three tablespoonfuls of scraped maple sugar. Pour over all three cupfuls of hct milk with one-fourth cupful of thick cream. Of course, the latter may be omitted, if liked. Fill the custard into wetted custard cups, place these in a dish of hot water and bake in a very slow oven until the custard is set.
Wring by Hand.
If you wish your table linen to look nice, do not put it through the wringer, as it makes creases that will not come out, even if the cloth is ironed when very damp. In fact, any clothes that you wish to look nice when ironed will be better if they are wrung by hand.
To Remove Paint
If you get paint on clothes immediately rub the mark with a rough rag wet with turpentine. This removes the stain and does not leave a mark.
