LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY RECONSTRUCTION CONFERENCE HELD BY THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF POLITICAL SCIENCE THE EFFECT OF WAR CONDITIONS ON NEGRO LABOR DISCUSSED. VOL. XXV. RECONSTRUCTION CON HELD BY THE AM OF THE EFFECT OF WAR CON DISCU NEW YORK, December 7.— The American Academy of Political Science, one of the influential organizations connected with Columbia Uni- city, New York City, is holding a reconstruction conference here at the Hotel Astor. Among the speakers are the following: Honorable William B. Wilson, secretary of labor; ex-President William H. Taft; Mr. Charles M. Schwab, director general, American Fleet Corporation; Miss Mary Van Kleeck, director of women in industry service, Department of Labor; Mr. Felix Frankfurter, assistant labor administrator; Miss Holen Fraser of London, England; Mr. Thomas B. Love, assistant secretary of the treasury; and Dr. George E. Haynes, director of Negro economics, Department of Labor. Extract from the address of the director of Negro economics on "The Effect of War Conditions on Negro Labor" are as follows: The subject should be divided into three main parts: (1) The change in the relation of Negro wage-earners to white employers, North and South; (2) the change in the relation of Negro wage-earners to white workmen; and (3) the change in the Negro himself. Wherever there has been such intelligent guidance that the first experience of the northern employer, in making trial of Negro workers, has been satisfactory to him and wherever there has been intelligent guidance for Negro workers, the experiment has been successful. Without such intelligent direction, employers have given up the trial as a hopeless experiment. Referring to the effect of Negro migration North, the speaker said that after Negro migration North had developed there was a considerable increase in war demands for the building of cantonments and munitions plants in the South, a shortage of labor in the South followed inevitably. Out of this shortage of labor arose a revaluation of Negro labor. Further, this migration to the North and the consequent changes under war conditions brought home to the mind of the rank and file of the Negroes the feeling that freedom, among other things, means the liberty for one to move at will from place to place and to change his job when it is to his advantage to do so. Again, it should be emphasized that the efforts of the Department of Labor to adjust the relations of white employers and Negro wage-earners in the South during the unusual war conditions have been largely experimental, but the experiment has been successful beyond the most sanguine expectation. The experiment has established beyond question the practicability, North and South, of the plan by which representatives of Negro wage-earners meet the representatives of white employers in cooperative committees and conferences. It has demonstrated that such meetings can achieve substantial results in adjusting the State Hist. & Nat Hist Mos.

Another effect of the war upon Negro labor has been to open up a wider range of occupations, in the North especially. For instance, in Detroit, Mich., in 1914, there were probably not a thousand Negroes in all the factories in that great automobile center. The latest report from Detroit about two months ago stated that probably about sixteen or seventeen thousand are now engaged in the industries of that city. During the past two years the speaker has visited many states both North and South and has taken special pains to talk with all classes of Negro workers both in industry and agriculture. This canvass of opinion has been among Negroes working on railroads, in mines, in factories; hotel porters, hackmen, farmers, plantation tennants, farm hands, tradesmen, business men, ministers, doctors, lawyers and housewives. The main object of such a canvass has been to learn from these people what constitutes the essential things which the great majority of them consider they should have as the outcome of this war and their part in it. First, they desire a fair chance to secure work and to hold it on the same conditions and with the same pay as other workers. Secondly, there is a widespread desire for education of all kinds. In the third place, there is a united desire for the removal of race discrimination in public courts and in public conveyances and provision in city and country for the same facilities of community improvement for them as for other folks. The fourth thing so generally desired by Negro workers can probably be best expressed in the words of an unlettered Negro tenant farmer in a southern state, who said to a prominent business man presiding over a meeting: "and, sir, we want to help say who governs us." As soon as this sentence was uttered the Negro part of the audience reechoed it in resounding applause. This same sentiment is expressed in various ways by Negro workers in country and city wherever one is able to find out what they really think. In a word, they have a deep consciousness of government by the consent of the governed; they are asking that they may be taken into all public affairs of the commonwealth and of the nation where their interests are involved. Three general facts have been touch upon in the course of the discussion which should be repeated in closing, in order to point to a plan of action: First, all this adjustment of Negro workers North and South in their relation to white employers and white wage-earners needs some general plan of organization. Secondly, it may be stated that in every state, North and South, where the Department of Labor has instituted DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1918 COLORED TROOPERS INVADE GERMAN SOIL Gallant 92nd Division Plays Big Role in Advance on Metz—Taking "Pot-Luck" in Freight Car "Pullmans" on War Front Without Complaint—Wounds Fail to Blot Out Native Sense of Humor—Determined to Keep Up With Procession.

Third, that the plan as now demonstrated in Negro Workers' Advisory Committees made up on a cooperative basis of representatives of Negro wage-earners, white employers, and, wherever possible, white wage-earners, is a most effective, practical means of guiding all interests concerned. That as a governmental effort it can deal successfully with many of the problems growing out of the effect of war conditions upon Negro labor.

OMEWHERE in France, Nov. 10.—In the battle raging today in the American advance towards Metz, the 92nd division, one of the colored combatant divisions over here, SOMEWHERE in France, Nov. 10.—In the battle raging today in the American advance towards Metz, the 92nd division, one of the colored combatant divisions over here, played a big role. Not only was its black infantry and machine gun units up at the front—in the thickest of it—but its artillery, the 167th brigade of field artillery was on the line, behaving like veterans, laying down a barrage for the infantry that was marvelously effective, and they established a reputation which has been made by but few, among French, British or Americans, of laying down a barrage that did not entrap, and fatally so, their own men. This has been a glorious day for the black soldiers. The fighting is still on, and I have just received the intimation that the casualty toll may be heavy—depressingly so, for Metz and the sector around about it is strongly fortified by the Germans, and resistance determined. Metz is considered by experts to be the strongest fortified city in the world, almost, if not so, as impregnable as the fortifications of the Dardanelles. But the Americans are hammering away at it, and only the signing of the armistice terms by the Germans by 11 o'clock tomorrow will save Metz from falling. Even as it is, colored soldiers are now on German soil. The husky invaders include the soldiers of the 92nd division, embracing the "Buffaloes," or 367th, the 365th and 366th regiments of infantry and the 167th brigade of field artillery, composed of the 349th, 359th and 351st regiments and the 317 trench mortar battery, and all are conducting themselves with a fortitude and valor that have won for them high praise from their commanding officers every time they have been put to any test. Freight Cars Look Like "Pullman Parlor Coaches" on War Front. Somewhere in France.—To many of our people back in "the States" who saw our boys embark on fine American railroad coaches and Pullman sleepers to cover the first lap of Oklahoma City, Okla.—The Oklahoma County Council of Defense has gone on record as approving the repeal of the race segregation ordinance which is claimed to be unconstitutional. The commissioners have invited a delegation from the council. Colored men, representatives of the real estate exchange and others to attend a meeting to discuss the action taken by the council.

Representative of the Committee on Publication.) their hoped-for pilgrimage to Berlin, the coaches they must ride in over here would arouse a mild protest. I stood at the station at Vierzon, one of France's many quaint old towns, recently, and saw a long train of freight cars roll in, en route to some point further distant. In these cars, with but a limited number of boxes to sit upon, and just the floors to stand upon, were crowded some one thousand of our own colored soldiers from "the States." But a jolier crowd never rode through American cities in Pullman sleepers and diners than these one thousand colored troopers. They accepted passage on these rude box freight cars cheerfully, for they knew they were now in war, and palace cars, downy coaches and the usual American railroad conveniences were neither available nor desirable. The point I wish to convey to the people back home is that did they but know how cheerfully—even eagerly—our boys over here accept war-time conveniences, they would not worry quite so much about how the boys are faring. They are being wholesomely and plentiously fed; they are warmly clothed; they are cheerful and uncomplaining, they know this is war and for that reason know exactly what they must expect. To a soldier, who must at times sleep with but the canopy of heaven as a covering and the earth as a mattress, a box freight car that shields him from the rain and wind is a real luxury, and he accepts it as such. There need not be any worry back home as to the maintenance of our colored soldiers over here. They receive the same substantial fare the white soldier receives, and the white soldier travels from point to point in the same box freight cars as affords means of passage for colored soldiers. In short, when it comes to maintenance and equipment and consideration for the comfort of the American soldier, to use a trite saying, "the folks are as good as the people." There is absolutely no discrimination, and the cheerfulness of these one thousand boys whose freight cars became, in imagination, Pullman palace cars, was the proof to me that the colored boys in the ranks are getting a fifty-fifty break. --- Wounds Fail to Blot Out Native Sense of Humor. Two more stories have come to me to prove that our colored soldiers preserve and radiate their humor even where shells and shrapnel fly thickest. A colored soldier slightly wounded in the Argonne fighting—and let me assure my readers there was "some" fighting there—sat down beside the road to wait for a chance to ride to the field hospital. A comrade hastening forward to his place in the line, and anxious for the latest news of the progressing battle, asked the wounded brother if he had been in the fight; did he know all about it, and how were things going at the front. "I sure does know all about it," the wounded man replied. "Well, what's happened to them?" quickly asked the trooper on his way to the front. "Well, it was this way," replied the wounded fellow, "I was climbin' over some barbed wire tryin' to get to them d—n booches, and they shot me; that's what I knows about it." A company water cart was following the advancing troops when a German shell burst in the ditch almost beside the cart. The horse on the shell side was killed, and the driver was wounded in the head. While the blood ran freely from his wound down his face, the driver took one look at the wreckage, then started stumbling back along the road. A white lieutenant who had seen it all stopped the driver of the cart and said: "The dessing station is——" Before he could finish his sentence the wounded driver, with the blood flowing in rivulets down his face, said: "Dressing station hell! I'm looking for another horse to hitch to that cart to take the place of the one that shell put out of commission." That was a bit of nerve, grim humor, and evidence of fidelity to duty. A mere wound in the head could not stop this driver from keeping up with the troops with a needed supply of water. CAMP DIX TROOPS TO BE SENT TO HOME STATES. Camp Dix., N. J.—Instead of releasing at Camp Dix the thousands of Negro soldiers awaiting demobilization, new orders of the War Department received here direct that all Negro troops here shall be returned by detachments to their home states, where at central points they will receive their discharge papers and final army pay. No explanation is announced, but it is evident the new plan will prevent the Southern Negroes becoming stranded in Northern cities, while at the same time it will insure a normal distribution of men to meet labor conditions in Southern states. All regular army Negro enlisted men serving here, chiefly as non-commissioned officers, in Negro organizations, will be sent back to the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantry, whence they came. Immediate steps for a general cleaning out of the camp by prompt demobilization is directed to make room at once for incoming overseas troops. FIRE SWEEPS A NEGRO CAMP. Yuma, Ariz., Nov. 27.—Fire, fanned by a high wind, swept the camp occupied by two companies of the Twenty-fifth United States infantry in Yuma late today, destroying every building with its contents, except the staff headquarters. In addition to being NO. 8. left shelterless, the 320 Negro troops at the camp lost all their arms, equipment, bedding, extra clothing and personal effects, including a large number of Liberty Bonds. Arrangements were prefected last week between F. Ziegfield, manager of Bert Williams, and E. F. Albee of the United Booking Offices, whereby Mr. Williams will take a flier in vaudeville for several weeks prior to going into the Midnight Frolic atop the New Amsterdam Roof. The big comedian will open at the Palace Theatre, New York, next week. He has all new songs and they are beyond a doubt the best collection he has had the good fortune to possess in years. New York.—Claiming to be 147 years old, William Masios, a Negro preacher, died here recently after being admitted to Bellevue hospital. He answered all questions put to him by the incredulous doctors about Revolutionary times, and his answers were so intelligent that the hospital authorities put him on record as being of that age—the oldest patient ever admitted to the hospital. He told the doctors that Uncle Sam is about to bring the draft age up to 45, but that he could give away a hundred years and still be over the draft age. Neighbors say he was born in Richmond, Va., in 1771. THE PRESENT SITUATION. Colored folks, do not discuss this war and the making of peace just now. Let the white folks try a hand at that kind of business. Conditions are unsettled and no one knows just what will happen in Europe during the next few months. Revolutions are taking place and the indications are that some of them will occur in the countries of the Allies. The situation in Ireland is one of grave menace to the British Empire in particular and to the civilized world in general. Should Ireland press her claim to self-determination, which means that the people of that country shall decide upon their own form of government and the right to decide whether or not they shall remain under British rule, India will come forward with a similar claim and probably Australia will make demands that cannot be denied. Evidently concessions have already been made to these divisions of the British Empire and these concessions will no doubt be made known at the peace table. There were some dangerous dogmas set up in President Wilson's fourteen points in his peace program, which if carried to their logical conclusion will revolutionize the civilized world. Evidently President Wilson has had an inkling of what is coming, else he would not have taken the unprecedented step of going to Europe in person. It looks to us that inasmuch as the Allies are heavily in debt to this country, they are about to endeavor to try to transfer the burden to Germany and thus put in the attitude of collecting our money from a defunct creditor. What else can be the meaning of the demand that Germany must pay the cost of the war, when the great portion of the cost is due to the United States of America?—Richmond Planet.

CARGO OF SUPPLIES GOES TO ARCHANGEL Red Cross Sends Relief Ships for Allied Soldiers and Civilians in Starving Russia. A relief ship was recently sent from this country to Archangel by the American Red Cross with 4,600 tons of drugs, food, soap and other supplies for the use of the Allied soldiers and needy civilians in that part of Russia. The vessel's cargo was valued at $1,511,233. Later, another ship was dispatched carrying 200 tons of similar supplies furnished by the American Red Cross, the total expenditure for the two shipments amounting to over $2,000,000. Major C. T. Williams of Baltimore was in charge of the party of thirteen which accompanied the shipment from this country. He was formerly a member of the Red Cross Commission for Roumania. Major Kirkpatrick, at one time a member of the latter commission, but recently attached to the Army Medical Corps, heads the medical end of the Archangel expedition. Drugs and general hospital supplies constituted the greater part of the cargo sent from America. While the chief concern of the expedition was providing comforts for American and Allied fighting men in that part of the world, all efforts were bent to get relief to the Russian soldiers who were returned from German prison camps at the rate of about 15,000 a week. The condition of these men was pitiable. It has been estimated that 90 per cent. of them were tubercular. In addition to drugs and food, almost every imaginable article on the list of supplies sent over was for the comfort, convenience and pleasure of the Allied soldiers. Just a few of these articles were playing cards, razor blades, jewsharps, mandolins, accordeons, ukaleeles, phonographs, cameras, skates, wigs, whiskers, grease paints, footballs, snowshoes, slippers, hockey outfits, indoor baseballs, moving picture outfits, Bibles, prayer books, boxing gloves, games, music, books, cigarettes, candy and dried fruits. The need of prompt relief for the inhabitants of towns along the coast of the White Sea and on the Kola peninsula, many of whom were facing starvation, was found to be imperative. Scurvy had broken out among the people at these places, adding to the general distress. The towns to which the relief expendition was sent are virtually isolated from the outside world because of the treacherous coast line, shifting sand bars and uncharted waters. An exceptionally early frost, even for that part of the world, ruined the harvests, which were expected to improve conditions. Statements, printed in Russian, explaining the work of the Red Cross, were distributed among the inhabitants. Following a tour of South England, Secretary of War Baker made this comment on the work done by the American Red Cross for our boys: "These are the things which count. The American Red Cross is to be congratulated on the way in which it is looking after our boys. It is doing fine work." Following his return from France, Secretary Baker wrote this note to the American Red Cross in London: "I left London so shortly after my drive to Winchester that I had no early opportunity to thank you for the courtesy of the touring car which you placed at my disposal for the trip. On this trip to Europe I have received fresh and noteworthy evidence of the astonishing efficiency of the American Red Cross operations in France and England. I have been delighted to see how much the American Red Cross has done to weld hearts of the allied people together." Replacing the Orchards. The American Red Cross has given $10,000 to assist in the replanting of trees in the orchards laid bare by the Germans. With this sum 40,000 fruit trees will be replaced in the devastated orchards of Belgium and northern France.

For those who have their heavy meal at noon, the hot dish, whether soup or escalloped, is an essential on these cool autumn nights. If the family is small, a few tablespoonfuls of mashed potato, tomato, beans or other vegetable will be sufficient for the basis of a good cream soup. soap or escalloped, is an essential on these cool autumn nights. If the family is small, a few tablespoonfuls of mashed potato, tomato, beans or other vegetable will be sufficient for the basis of a good cream soup. Spanish Meat Dish.—This is a real good, tasty dish, and one which may be prepared with small amounts of meat. A half-cupful of finely minced meat will season a dish sufficient to serve four persons. Sliced, parboiled potatoes are placed in the bottom of a well-greased dish; then sprinkle over the meat and a thin layer of finely shredded Spanish onion; over this, a thick layer of tomato and bake for an hour or more in a moderate oven. The seasoning should be well done. Adding cayenne pepper and any gravy will also add to the flavor. Hash From Boiled Dinner.—Chop fine the vegetables left from an old-fashioned boiled dinner with some of the corned beef; season and add some of the broth saved from the vegetables, and cook slowly in a frying pan for an hour on the back part of the stove. Serve with dill pickles and bread and butter. Rice and Egg Omelet.—Put a quarter of a cupful of washed and drained rice in a frying pan, add two tablespoonfuls of sweet fat and cook until the rice is slightly yellow, then add soup stock, if at hand, or boiling water. Cook until the rice is tender, then add seasonings, and stir in two or three eggs and a half-cupful of milk. Turn out on a hot serving dish and serve with curled bacon. Egg and Sausage Omelet.—Beat five eggs until light, add a finely chopped onion (a small green one), a spoonful of chopped green pepper and two tablespoonfuls of ham or liver sausage. Season well and put into a hot omelet pan, turn out on a hot platter and garnish with parsley. Oysters Fried in Batter.—Make a batter with two tablespoonfuls of milk, two well-beaten eggs, a tablespoonful of flour and a dash of salt. Dip well-dried oysters in the batter and fry in two tablespoonfuls of hot fat. Sweet potatoes cooked until tender, then buttered and sprinkled with sugar and set into the oven to brown is a pleasant way of serving them. For woman is not undeveloped man, But diverse; Not like to like, but like in difference TRUE HOSPITALITY. "The ornaments of a house are the friends who frequent it." The happy hostess, one who entertains frequently and whose invitations are always welcome, is she who gives of her best to her friends. She who impoverishes her- hostess, one who entertains frequently and whose invitations are always welcome, is she who gives of her best to her friends. She who impoverishes herself and family for weeks to pay for an extravagant entertainment is not extending true hospitality to her friends. In these maidless days when a vast majority of our housewives are their own cooks, there would be little entertaining unless the meals prepared were largely such as may be all ready to serve with little additional work at the last minute. No guest enjoys roasted hostess for the first course. We cannot forego the pleasure of having our friends around our tables frequently, so it is necessary that the entertainment be simple; and simple food well prepared and daintily served is usually in favor with the best people. In these days of food substitutes we are looking for originality expressed in the manner we deal with them and in this short time we are already snowed under with new recipes which have been worked out by our efficient and loyal American housekeepers. She who serves her friends with food and entertainment within her means is bound to be respected by those worth while and the others don't count. To the average human being a good old-fashioned dinner table, where each is given a share in the serving is a positive joy to the dinner-goer who has been surfeited on eight-course dinners whose only recommendation is the employment they give our long-suffering physicians. Let us then continue to entertain simply, within our means, going calmly on, envying nobody, setting a wholesome example which will be followed with gratitude by even the lavish and well-to-do. One young housewife gave a plain old-fashioned boiled dinner to her friends and they talked of it for days. Each hostess has some dishes in which she excels and she is wise who does not try experiments on her friends. The only movable part of a new flour sifter is a flat coil of heavy wire which passes back and forth over the wire mesh as the implement is shaken Nellie Maxwell ```markdown ``` Xmas Shirt Sale **MEN'S $1.50 SHIRTS**—The season's newest patterns in splendid wearing madras and percale clothes; cut coat style, and have either laundered or soft cuffs.

Hence T it is usual to call it “Merry Christmas.” It marks the highest and most Joyous occasion in the calendar. During the preceding twelve thonths the hearts and minds of busy people have been burdened With business re- sponsibilities and care, but at the Christmas tide the burdened hearts are loosened, cares are relaxed and the pent-up spirit leaps forth into spontan- cous rejoicing. To make the children happy, ought to be the first concern and chief delight of all. It should be the glad event of the year, as it repre- sents a significant occasion, “Heaven's best gift to earth.” Without which there would be few things to make glad the hearts of the weary. School boys and girls, teachers, servants and laborers ought to turn aside from dull routine and crowd into the Christmas tide many happy hours of mirth and pleasure. Of course, Christmas eve, or the days previous, prepares the way for our Christmas joys, as at this time our heads and pocketbooks are strained to get presents for loved ones at home or abroad. When we know that they are happy we cannot easily restrain the emotion that arises in our own souls. None are too poor to give something. It is not what you give, but the spirit in which you give it that determines the result. Let every one | resolve to be happy by making others so. THE PRICE OF PROGRESS. GAIN we say—Let the Negro get the pioneer spirit! The modern Negro A is not daring enough. The greatest progress comes as the result of a risk. The great West was built upon the daring and the life sacrifices of her early settlers. America itself is the result of the risk and daring of intrepid explorers. The sacrifices of war have led the world forward in leaps and bounds towards the final and always desired goal of universal peace, The medical investigator, the physician who stakes his life upon the discoy- ery of a scientific antidote for a devastating scourge, thus purchases for hu- manity the immense benefits which his profession bestowed upon humanity. The conquering of the air is now in progress. The aviator is stunned but not deterred by the frequent tragedies of the aviation field. Man's tri- umph of the air calls for its toll of death, and the inversion of natural con- ditions must continue that toll, even to a greater ratio than the navigation of the mighty ocean's demand, but the toll will be paid and progress will continue. The white man’s daring knows no limit. The black man’s oppor- tunity is awaiting him. It is not merely to follow in the path beaten and made easy by the white man, It lies in the following out of the hohest eray- ings of his soul—the desire to achieve and to govern. Let him begin to search the world for the harbor of his destiny without fear of the toll of death, A PHASE OF PROGRESS. N the first page of this issue of our paper we publish extracts from O an address delivered by Dr. George E. Haynes, Director of Negro Eco- nomics, Department of Labor, before the American Academy of Politi- cal Science, an influential organization connected with Columbia University. New York city. This address on “The Effect of War Conditions on Negro Labor”——was freely discussed and the speaker gave sonie startling facts which show not only a phase of progress in the Negro industrially ahd other- wise, but also the wonderful achievements to be brought about when man is treated as man by his fellow human beings who happen to possess ad- Vantages for greatness which in turn make them more serviceable to the world and give them the credit of being large contributors to our present: day civilization. There are some people who never give credence to his: torical events because either ignorance or that idea of only believing what we see, what occurs in our day and time, is uppermost in their minds, and therefore with reluctance they will pass to their posterity even facts. that confront them, But thanks to the progressiveness of the age we live in, as with the general advancement of peoples, nations and governments, each succeeding day, each succeeding event brings proofs of man’s humanity, man’s intellectuality to do great things, to assimilate and affiliate with con- ditions that ultimately mean the preservation of all the races and a broth- erly feeling existing thereby creating perpetual peace and happiness among the sons of earth. What Negro, what white man of this country who had the opportunity of hearing Dr. Haynes, or reading his address in full, or even the extracts we publish, would not think that the day, the hour is fast approaching when this nation’s fame, this nation’s proud name, her vaunted democracy, her boast of power as the greatest civilizing agency of the world will not be in mere words, but so graphically demonstrated that the poet's language wil be wanting, the writer's pen will fail to adequately describe the blessings that will come to the possessors of this life verifying the com- mon relationship one towards another. It takes such a calamity as we have recently passed through; it means the shedding of blood; it demand: the toll to be paid on the altar of sacrifice, and who would not gladly pay it if such results from war conditions. May we then pray for more war? God forbid! as we believe that the four years’ conflict of the world offer: | enough chastisement, and man bending under its load and paying the pen: alty for his wrongs will of necessity repent and become as his Creator made him, the best of His hahdiwork. Addresses of this sort will weld the link in the chain.

Charles Young is able to be out again after three weeks' illness. George W. Davis, who was quite sick last week, is able to be out. Mr. and Mrs. Morris Campbell of 837 Elati street are numbered among the sick. Mrs. Senora Langston and Mr. Roy Maxwell were quietly married last Tuesday evening by Father Brown of the Church of the Redeemer. A. J. Riley and family arrived in the city last Thursday from Durango. Mr. Riley has secured a position with the Daniels & Fisher's Stores Co. Will Moore of 2801 Curtis street, employee of Daniels & Fisher's, is absent from work owing to illness. We wish him a speedy recovery. Robert Carruth, proprietor of the Night and Day Cafe, is very ill, and was taken to the hospital Thursday. His many friends hope for his speedy recovery. Mrs. Jessie Scott received the news Monday of the illness of her husband, who was taken sick in Los Angeles, and unable to return home on regular run. We express our deepest sympathy over the death of our prominent townsman, Benjamin Bright of 2571 Downing street, and to his wife, Mrs. Ruth Bright and other relatives we extend our sincere condolences. Mrs. Richard Frazier, who suffered for a number of months with a facial trouble which necessitated several operations, returned from Utah last Sunday, where she was under the care of a specialist for three months. She has almost completely recovered and now our friend "Dick" is all smiles over the restoration to health of his "better half."

Thos-Hazell, S. T. B. Sermon topics, Sunday Dec. 15th: 11 a. m., "MUSINGS FOR ADVENT;" 5 p. m., "THE NEW ERA MOVEMENT." It is hoped that all the members will attend the services tomorrow. "THE NEW ERA MOVEMENT" as launched by the Presbyterian church, U. S. A., as a post-war church measure, will be entered into fully at the evening services. No member acquainted with the history of the Presbyterian Church in Reconstruction days can afford to miss the opportunity Sunday evening. Friends and visitors have a standing invitation to all these services. Owing to the fact that "influenza" has made such ravishes in the city and that some of the children were victims, the rehearsal for the Junior choir has been suspended until the time be more opportune. A short session of the Sabbath school will be held every Sabbath morning from 9:45 to 10:30 o'clock. Parents are enjoined to send the children. In our next issue announcement will be made for our Xmas tree for the Sabbath school scholars. There will be no program in connection with the same this year. On Xmas day at 5:30 o'clock a. m. our annual services will be conducted in the church. The communion of the Lord's Supper will be a pronounced feature of these services. Xmas carols will be sung. Every resident communicant of the church is specially requested to commune at this service. The Sabbath following Xmas day being Dec. 29th, at 5 p. m., a musical and literary program of great proportion and merit will be rendered. As usual the program will commend itself to the most thoughtful of the worshipers. Once more the reputation of the literary and musical status of the church will be demonstrated. The public is invited. JOSEPH WOODSON LYNCHED BY WYOMING MO Green River, Wyo., Dec. 11.—Joseph Woodson, a Negro porter at the Union Pacific railroad eating house here, was hanged to a telephone pole in front of the court house Tuesday afternoon by a mob of 500 men, many of whom are employed by the railroad. Earlier, Woodson had shot to death Albert Miller, a Union Pacific switchman, and wounded another railroad employee. Miller and the other railroad man were standing in the Union Pacific station when they overheard the Negro make an insulting remark to a white waitress employed there. They remonstrated with Woodson, who began cursing the men. A fight followed, in which the Negro drew a revolver and shot Miller dead and wounded the other man. Woodson was arrested a short time later and locked up in the county jail. Within half an hour after the arrest of the Negro, the mob formed and marched to the jail, overpowered Sheriff Arthur Dixon and the jail attaches, and seized Woodson, who was dragged outside to the nearest telephone pole, where a rope was tied around his neck and the other end thrown over one of the cross arms. A score of men grabbed hold of the free end and jerked Woodson high into the air, where he slowly strangled to death. Sheriff Dixon declared he did not recognize any members of the mob and it is not likely that any arrests will follow. The last lynching in this county occurred a year ago, the victim being a Negro who had assaulted a white woman. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO FUNERAL NOTICES. Mason—Theodore Oliver, 45 years.

He will visit all the centers where numbers of supply troops, depot brigades, labor battalions and combat troops are located, speaking to them and urging in every way that they observe the good name they have won in battlefields and in the service in France, that they might not furnish the slightest cause for unfavorable comment or adverse criticism before they return to America. He was accompanied by Mr. Nathan Hunt, his traveling secretary, and Mr. Lester A. Walton, managing editor of the New York Age. Day and Night Phone Main 2701. DR. C. E.

FOOD SHIP REACHES THE HUNGRY SOUTH EUROPEANS Must Be Followed Up by Big Conservation Effort, County by County, in America. "Liberated territories are daily and urgently calling upon the United States for food. Prepare the public or a coming drastic food program." This is Herbert Hoover's first message relayed to the Colorado Food Administration by Washington since the food chief landed in Europe. "A definite program cannot yet be formulated because of chaotic conditions over here. I am negotiating with the allied governments daily with regard to shipping, finances, and organization. Keep the food administration's county organizations intact, as they will have to put across something big in America as soon as we can get the program mapped out and adequate receiving and distributing organizations created over here." According to Hoover's telegram, the first ship loaded with American food for European relief has been sighted off Glbraltar steaming slowly through the straits toward the waiting, hungry lands of Southern Europe. "This shipload of food must be followed by hundreds more until twenty million tons are sent. And to do this the present saving on Colorado tables must be increased two-thirds. Colorado's proportion of the amount of food which the United States has promised to send Europe is 200,000 tons—that's a ton of food from each family in the state," said Robert J. Grant, executive manager of the food administration for Colorado. ALL SUGAR RESTRICTIONS OFF; VOLUNTARY SAV- ING ASKED. Under the United States Food Administration's new policy of entirely voluntary food saving, all regulations enforcefully restricting the use of sugar have been rescinded. No penalty is now attached to purchasing sugar in any amount, or to serving any amount in restaurants. Sugar bowls have been returned to the tables. Although the enforcement of sugar saving is thus abandoned, the food administration urges that families keep well within the four pound per person per month allotment voluntarily and that strictest economy in the use of sugar and all foods be maintained. COLORADO'S GREAT FOOD RESOUCES SHOWN. Colorado's exports of food stuffs, exclusive of live stock, during the fiscal year ending last June amounted to 2,235,812,955 pounds, according to a comprehensive record of the state's agricultural exports compiled by A. V. Kipp, head of the transportation division of the U. S. Food Administration for Colorado. This is, the first time in the history of the state that accurate figures on the state's food exports have been obtained. They prove that the state is rapidly forging to the front agriculturally and playing a big part in feeding the nation. Mr. Kipp's report also shows that 962,471 cases or 39,531,463 pounds of canned goods are packed in and exported from Colorado last fiscal year; that 309,139,048 pounds of flour were milled in the state and 247,612,667 pounds shipped out; that 468,600,000 pounds shipped out; and 434,769 cases of condensed milk packed and shipped. The state's major exports fqlow: Potatoes, 608,899,260 pounds; wheat, 594,342,000 pounds; beans, 103,028,360 pounds; alfalfa hay, 196,760,955 pounds; alfalfa meal, 142,190,560 pounds; apples, 180,190,360 pounds; peaches, 35,820,000 pounds. SUBSTITUTE BREAD AGAIN URGED Six hundred thousand pounds of wheat substitutes left on the hands of Colorado jobbers and millers will be wasted unless the consumers of the state continue their use of substitute dishes and permit bakers still to use a small proportion of substitutes in bread, is the statement of the U. S. Food Administration for Colorado. IN MRS. WORLD'S PANTRY. Here is the latest "food table" summarizing the world situation in staples, prepared by the U. S. Food Administration: WHEAT — Sufficient supply until next harvest if used with economy. PORK PRODUCTS, DAIRY PRODUCTS, AND VEGETABLE OILS — Shortage of three billion pounds. Strictest economy urged. Butter rations a possibility for the United States. BEEF — World shortage. SUGAR — Plenty unless European countries should increase their rations. In that event, a shortage and a return of the sugar regulations. HIGH PROTEIN FEEDS FOR DAIRY HERDS — Shortage of three million tons. OTHER FEEDS — Plenty with economy. BEANS, PEAS AND RICE— Plenty if not wanted. COFFEE—A world surplus. Readjustment for Reconstruction DURING the great war now closed except as to diplomatic details, the telephone was privileged to play a conspicuous part. That it served so capably and well is due in large measure to the patriotic co-operation of the public. Now post-war conditions are beginning to influence thought and action. The reconstruction period is at hand. Industries retarded by the necessities of war will begin to expand. The energies and capital directed toward the winning of the war will be diverted to the channels of peaceful pursuits. Reconstruction will involve the readjustment of plans and policies. It will require no less aggressive thought and energy and action in the business of building for peace than it did in the preparation for and the waging of war. In the readjustment of business and the reconstruction of industry the telephone will again be an important factor. It will serve as the line of communication between the general headquarters of thought and the front lines of action. The demands upon the telephone will be tremendous; but the intelligent, considerate use of the telephone will multiply achievement. May we hope for a continuance of the helpful co-operation which the public has shown us in the past, that the very best results may be obtained from our efforts to serve you satisfactorily.

Chancellor Ebert has decided to form a' Socialist army to offset the forces of the Spartacus group. Rumors are current in Berlin that the Spartacus Socialists would name Dr. Liebknecht president of the republic. The Austrians, before the evacuation, sacked Belgrade, according to Deputy Pavisic of Croatia, who arrived at Geneva. Reports from Sarreburck, Rhenish Prussia, indicate that the delivery of German railway material is being carried out very slowly. The London Daily Express says that it understands that Viscount Milner, the secretary of state for war, is about to quit the government. Miss Margaret Wilson, daughter of President Wilson, arrived at Brest to meet the presidential party. She will accompany the President to Paris.

Dr. Francisco Tudela, former Peruvian foreign minister, sailed from Lima for Washington to assume his post as first Peruvian ambassador to the United States. Prince Henry of Prussia, brother of the former German emperor, has proclaimed the establishment of a royalist party in Germany, according to reports from Holland. Premier Lloyd George in a speech to women in London declared that gigantic armies must not be permitted in the future, because they tempt nations to make war. He said he is a firm believer in the league of nations. The former German emperor is entitled to the right of sanctuary in Holland and therefore his return to Germany cannot be demanded, according to a statement made by Jonkheer Beerenbruck in the lower chamber of Parliament during a debate on the visit of the former emperor to Holland. Legal action against the former German emperor has been commenced by an organization of "Little Mothers." The demand for prosecution states that the commanders of the German army in April, 1916, directed that girls be carried away from their families, that they were submitted to odious treatment and forced into close contact with notorious women. SPORT Earl McTavish, fullback, was elected captain of the 1919 football squad of Colorado College at a meeting held in Denver. Lieut.

The Metropolitan Golf Association has decided at its annual meeting in New York to resume the championship matches which were suspended when the United States went into the war. The six-day bike race in New York, which was won by McNamara and Magin, was a record-breaker in attendance, though the mileage record was away behind previous years. The amount of receipts was close to $70,000. GENERAL Welcomed home as heroic sons of the nation, 7,740 more soldiers, sailors, marines and aviators, representing virtually every state in the Union, entered fog-bound New York harbor on six large transports from European ports. The tales these men told about one another were narrations of American high courage on French battlefields, on the open seas and in the air above France and England. Gustave Adorm, the newly elected president of Switzerland, in an interview with a correspondent of the Journal, declared that he believed the visit of President Wilson to Europe was a guarantee that the future society of nations would be based on right, justice and a respect for the popular will. Pope Benedict is an advocate of a league of nations so constructed as to prevent the possibility of future wars, Monsignor Sigourney Fay declared in New York in an address before the League for Political Education, outlining the features of a recent conversation he had with the pontiff. With a total value of $12,272,412,000, the nation's principal farm crops this year were worth more, based on prices paid to farmers Dec. 1, than in any year in the history of American agriculture. December crop estimates of the Department of Agriculture showed that this year's total exceeds that of the former record year, 1917, by $614,380,000. There also was a marked increase in acreage, the 355,835,722 total exceeding that of last year by 10,700,000 acres. Reports that another attempt was to be made by the New York authorities to extradite Harry K. Thaw, who is confined in the Pennsylvania hospital for the insane, were denied at Philadelphia by James Gay Gordon, counsel for Thaw.

THE WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS A BRIEF RECORD OF PASSING EVENTS IN THIS AND FOR EIGN COUNTRIES. IN LATE DISPATCHES DOINGS AND HAPPENINGS THAT MARK THE PROGRESS OF THE AGE. Western Newspaper Union News Service. ABOUT THE WAR Order has been re-established in Cologne as the result of the arrival of an advance guard of British troops. French and American troops officially entered Aix-la-Chapelle and took over the occupation of that German city from the Belgians. Zwickau, a town in Bohemia, south cupied by Czecho-Slovak troops. Dresden, the Saxon capital, is forty miles northwest of Zwickau. The British transport Orca, with 1, 922 American troops aboard, arrived at New York from Liverpool. She is the fourth transport to bring returning soldiers. Great Britain will demand £8,000,000,000 ($40,000,000,000) sterling for Great Britain and her dominions as reparation for the war, according to the London Daily Mail. The British admiralty has notified Brazil that there is no further need of Brazilian warships for patrolling European waters. The vessels, therefore, have been ordered home. British troops are in possession of all the great bridges across the Rhine at Cologne, as a result of the sudden and unexpected withdrawal of German sentries from the eastern end of the crossings. Grand Duke Nicholas Nicholaie-vitch, former commander-in-chief of the Russian army, is now in command of a force of Cossacks in southern Russia, according to a Russian wireless message received in London. The military side of demobilization of Canada's army overseas has been completed and is ready to be put into operation immediately peace is declared and the higher command of the allies consents to the withdrawal of troops. The three bridgeheads to be occupied under the terms of the armistice are now in the hands of the allies. French troops entered Mayence (Mainz). Previously the Americans had reached Coblenz, and the British Cologne. Twenty-six hundred American prisoners of war interned at Camp Rastatt left there for Switzerland. Two hundred other Americans who have been scattered in camps in Germany are leaving by way of Holland and Denmark. It is expected that the last of the Americans will be out of German camps soon. Marshal Foch has refused the request of the German armistice delegates that they be permitted to communicate with the provinces west of the Rhine now being occupied by the allies. The commander-in-chief declared that it was necessary to maintain the blockade of Germany as provided by the armistice. WESTERN Stunning advances in the price of corn resulted Dec. 12 from the government crop report showing that the yield for 1918 is the smallest in five years. Values ran up as much as 7 cents a bushel over Wednesday's finish. William H. Bartlett, for many years head of the Board of Trade firm of Bartlett, Frazier & Co., suddenly died at his ranch at Vermejo Park, N. M. Bartlett retired some years ago, and had made his home on his ranch. Reports received at Sacramento by the California State Board of Health, showed 2,128 new cases of influenza developed in the state Dec. 11. Of this number Los Angeles reported 898. C. L. Landry, a private detective of Denver, is in jail in Torrington, Wyo., charged with manslaughter as a result of his killing Miss Sylvia Kelley of Torrington, near Henry, Neb., nine miles ease of Torrington. John Lee, probably one of the best known cowmen in the Southwest and hero of Zane Grey's famous novel, "The Rider of the Purple Sage," was found dead in his cabin at Red Lake, San Juan county, Utah, about 250 miles south of Salt Lake. WASHINGTON Abandonment of nineteen construction projects including a number of nitrate and other chemical plants was announced by the War Department. Government supervision over the steel industry and steel price fixing will end Dec. 31, the War Industries Board announced. Extension of the period of government control of railroads for five years, until Jan. 1, 1924, was recommended to Congress by Director General McAdoo. Cancellation of all outstanding contracts for construction of wooden ships where builders have not spent more than $200,000 on a ship has been determined upon by the Shipping Board. SPORT --- CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Two Colorado boys killed in action are reported in the casualty lists made public by the War Department Dec. 9. They are Raleigh Zachrison, Arvada, and Everett M. Caldwell, Crawford. The list of wounded severely in action includes Myron C. Herrick, Donald L. Hathaway, Clarence A. Renfro, Denver; Lawrence L. O'Kelly, Pueblo; Cass Manning, Denver, and Arthur Collamer, Fort Collins. Among the wounded, degree undetermined, are John L. Hammons, Eaton; John O. Loughridge, Campo, and Thomas J. Veach, Craig. Three wounded slightly are John Riechers, Hillrose; Charles L. Jordan, Yodor, and Clarence A. Owen, Springfield. COLORADO STATESMAN Comprehensive plans for a substantial post-war development of Colorado were outlined at a meeting of representative business men of the state in the state capitol, following the request by the State Council of Defense for such a meeting to formulate plans for the development of thousands of acres of undeveloped lands. This action was suggested several days ago by Secretary of the Interior Franklln K. Lane and embodies a plan to provide employment and homes for the 2,000,000 soldiers now in France and England who are soon to be returned to this country. The Mouth-Piece of the People of Colorado and the Entire West The joint legislative committee on education, consisting of two members of the Senate and three of the lower House, was appointed by Lleut. Gov. James A. Pulliam, in conformity with the statutes, for the purpose of making recommendations to the incoming Legislature. The committee comprises Senator E. Y. Dunklee, Denver, chairman; Senator L. A. Puffer, Colorado Springs, and Representatives Boon Best of Klowa county, J. Arthur Phelps of Pueblo county and J. L. Morrison of Dolores county. Possessors of thirsts who have been deluging the Denver liquor permit department with applications for liquor permits for fear that they will be left high and dry when Governor Gunter signs the bone-dry law, may cease stampeding; for, according to W. S. Lail, chief liquor permit clerk, it is understood that ample notice of the signing of the bill will be given in order that the permit department and the express companies may clear up their business. ARELIABLE chronicle of their doings and progress; a faithful mirror of their wants, their hopes, their best aspirations. A total of 2,221 liquor permits issued Dec. 7 broke all previous records of the clerk's office in Denver by more than 300. The exceptional rush which has pushed all other business in that department of the city administration into the background is due, apparently, to a rumor that the bone-dry law is to become immediately in force through the signing of the governor's name to the measure. Modification of a bill providing for the care of soldiers discharged from the army to pass to the United States public health service under the war risk insurance act, has resulted in the launching of a movement that may bring a second great hospital to Colorado, through the efforts of the Colorado Development Federation. THE COLORADO STATESMAN It is interesting to note that while the beet growers of northeastern Colorado will have received for this year's crop of beets approximately $11,500,000, or about $1,240,000 more than they received from the 1917 crop, the fact remains that there were something over 23,000 less acres grown than in 1917. Acting upon the theory that the present cost of living should be met by greater incomes, the Boulder city council has granted a raise in the salaries of the director of finance and record, supervisor of street maintenance, assistant health officer, chief of police, fire chief and all patrolmen and firemen. Unequaled as an advertising medium for the business of professional men and women. A meeting of the District Attorneys' Association has been called by District Attorney Samuel Johnson, president, to be held at the capitol in Denver Dec. 14. An appeal to Colorado's patriotic citizens to complete their state's 100 per cent war record by bringing their War Savings Stamps investment up to the $20,000,000 quota during December came to the Colorado War Savings committee in a telegram from Secretary of the Treasury William G. McAdoo. Inheritance tax collections by the state for the biennium which ended Nov. 30 amounted to $661,273.59, according to a statement prepared by Richard F. Ryan, chief inheritance tax appraiser. Collections in the last half of November totaled $60,077.89. An excellent family journal speaking to and for many thousand colored citizens. Members of the soldiers and sailors' welcome home committee of the Red Cross are extending the friendly hand to more than 300 soldiers and sailors who are entering the Denver Union station daily from camps and cantonments all over the country. All restrictions which had been placed upon Christmas buying and Christmas trade conditions by agreement between the leading business interests of the country and the Council of National Defense have been removed. TWODOLLARSAYEAR After spending two and a half months in a German prison camp and being released according to the terms of the armistice, Lieut. Horace P. Wells cabled his parents in Denver that he was well, was on his way to England and probably would be in Denver for Christmas. THE GREAT ORGAN OF THE State Senator Leon M. Hattenbach will introduce at the coming session of the Legislature a bill calling for the establishment of a State Trade Commission, similar in its form and purpose to the federal labor commission.

HELP BRAVE BELGIANS DRIVE OUT ENEMY American Red Cross Aids With Supplies and Comforts in the Equipment of Valiant Army. IT is particularly interesting to Americans to know the tremendous I want to know the tremendous work which the American Red Cross has done toward relieving distress in Belgium. Among the many things done for King Albert's gallant little army by the Red Cross the following are a few: It established a dining room and reading and writing room at the warehouses in Le Havre. It gave a plate and a bowl to 6,000 munition workers in —— to use at their meals. It fitted up recreation rooms for workers at munition plants. It installed a co-operative restaurant for the military personnel of the Maritime Agency at Le Havre. It installed shower baths and a barber shop for the army garrisons in Le Havre. In army training centers the Red Cross gave household comforts, phonographs, games, etc. It gave prizes for organized athletic tournaments. It sent presents to each man decorated for bravery. These presents are usually razors, plpes, fountain pens and such. Up to now this work has only applied to the infantry. The Red Cross provided the apparatus and films for cinema shows. Eight thousand soldiers see them every day. It supplied books for all soldiers. It installed a recreation and writing room at the large canteen at La Panne. It presented to every infantry and cavalry regimental surgeon a medical traveling case, holding a set of medical instruments for field service. This work required an appropriation of approximately 1,250,000 francs. Straight from the front is this comment of a Belgian colonel. It was made recently while he was sitting in his dugout talking of the work of a canteen for which the American Red Cross had just provided quarters on very short notice. "One live demonstration like this is better than a year of talk." American Red Cross has erected a barracks at Dijon, France, to serve as a day nursery for the children of the French women who work in the United States Army camouflage factory. Your Face. The face of a man or a woman is an unfailing mirror of what is in the heart of that man or that woman. If you will study faces you will study life. The face cannot deceive you if you study it. If the face tries to dissemble you look through it into the heart of a more or less pathetic hypocrite. Catholic in Its Friendships. A certain cat, the story of whose career is vouchered for by a cat club, adopted a litter of young rabbits and nourished them well. This cat was, for that matter, very sociable and inclusive in her likings. One year her constant companion was a chicken. The two ate habitually out of the same dish and slept every night in the same enclosure. Makers of Heroes. Emerson says, "Times of heroism are generally times of terror." They show true character. It seems that human nature needs a test to show the stuff it's made of. Spirits of heroic mold often lie dormant until aroused by a mighty challenge. It seems as though there is some militarism of the soul that waits the fife call and the measure of the drum beat. Not fear but lack of occasion keeps the latent might unconscious of itself. But let the need call and the sleeping giant rouses and strides frayward to the dismay of petty puppets of annoyance. The Murderer's Touch. It is an old belief that the body of a murdered person will bleed on being touched by the guilty one. This "evidence" of guilt was once admitted in the Scottish criminal courts. If you happen to possess a copy of Sir Water Scott's "Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border," you'll find an interesting story in this connection.

HENNING'S FAMILY SHOE STORE Visitor Takes Chance of Welcome. Moroccan fishermen are extremely superstitious, and the appearance of a strange change in weather or tide or the coming of a visitor makes them angry if at the same time the fish cense to bite. If he arrives at the time of a run he is eagerly welcomed, and sometimes is at a loss to return in the proper way the gratitude of the fishermen, who fancy his coming brought the run of fish. Omens on Horses. There are several omens dealing with horses. A warrior likes his mount to neigh before going into battle, as this is a sign of victory. To meet a plebald horse is lucky, and if you meet another soon after you may express any wish and get it granted. A horse with a white star on its forehead is another lucky sign, but to meet a white horse means bad luck, unless one spits at it. This averts the ill luck. Another bad sign is for a horse to neigh opposite the door of a house. It means sickness to one of the inmates. All Is Not Lost. Boys no longer have the opportunity to learn their lessons by the light of a pine knot. But opportunities to master draw poker in a quiet hay loft, and by the light of a smudged lantern still are available in many rural communities.—Tonkea Capital. STOP! LOOK! LISTEN!

O Costumes, to take the place of suits for travel and street wear, are appearing with considerable insistence. They have been introduced for the sake of variety and are not expected to rival the tailored suit, which is so well fortified in its position of favorite that nothing can dislodge it. In these new arrivals, instead of coat and skirt to match we find a coat and frock to match, so far as material is concerned. The coat may be long or short, is made in a variety of ways and usually plainly tailored. The frock is much less plain—something of an unpretentious afternoon gown—which the coat converts into a costume suitable for the street. There is a lot of style and trimness in this one-material street outfit and it admits of variations that emphasize the idea. Occasionally hat and bag are made to carry the material through to the limit of its usefulness. Perhaps, if the whole figure-were shown in the Three Hats for Mourning S THE HAT FASHION The very definite character of apparel to be worn during periods of mourning, is the result of custom, deeply rooted in sentiment. In recent years periods of mourning have grown shorter and apparel has become less somber than in the past, but it has lost nothing in dignity and has gained in beauty. There is some difference of opinion, among people of equal intelligence, as to whether it should be worn or not, but there is no question as to the privilege of individuals to decide this matter. The demand for mourning continues and specialists give their time to design it. Black and white crape for first mourning, certain silks and other fabrics in black or white are used in making it. The three hats shown in the group above employ silk and crape. The first one is of silk laid in tucks over the crown and plain on the upper brim. Black georgette makes a soft facing. For trimming a few dull black beads are scattered about on the upper brim. A flower motif with leaves and stem, made of folds of silk, is applied to the crown. Corduroy Best Robe Corduroy has immense popularity, both for the dinner rest robe and for the less formal negligee. Lined with $ \epsilon $ softer silk it is an excellent material for cool days and it does not crush and get out of shape as finer fabrics will, though it does rub and soon will present a worm look unless carefully handled. It is a curious notion these days to make all sorts of garments of strips, of cloth, leaving just room enough in an underarm seam for the arms to go through. Of course these are so simple to make that it is easy enough to achieve one at home; at any rate, one can always thus select the special colors one fikes. --- picture above, we might even discover spats of the same cloth as the rest. Even the coat buttons and belt are made of it. But there is one digress-sion—since fur is expected to lend tone to every sort of costume this season it has not been neglected in this one. It appears at its best in a short scarf like collar of seal skin. A little ornament, made of ostrich feathers, has a daring pose on the hat and its rich black makes a fine combination with the taupe-colored velours that it embellishes. The plain bag, of the velours, is mounted on black celluloid, altogether very quiet and practical looking. The chances are that it is lined with rose or cerise or some other vivid color in satin and that the same touch of color appears in the bodice of the frock somewhere. Canes and swagger sticks make only spasmodic entries into the scheme of things for street wear and are not an important feature of styles. A A hat of English crape, which is moisture-proof, is a dignified model for a matron. The brim turns up at-the left side and is faced with silk. Three flaring folds of silk about the top-crown give the required height. Small leaves of silk are posed against the side crown at the front. Nearly all the trimmings used on mourning millinery are made of the same materials as the hats they adorn. Another hat in which crape and silk are combined is a smart turban with wide coronet. This is covered with folds of silk with a border of crape. Small, dull jet beads with a plaiting of silk, form a handsome ornament for this model. It is a becoming shape suited to many faces. Few long, heavy vells are worn even by older women. Small net vells often with borders of crape, have replaced the all-crape vell. Crape is used as a trimming and in dress accessories for first mourning and is not used for any other wear. Julie Bottomley French Evening Gowns. An unusual angle of the fashion subject from the French point of view this season is in the evening gowns. Modesty and conservation is the watchword in the designing of the upper half of these garments, very few low-cut gowns being shown and practically all having sleeves of one sort or another. But the skirts are definitely quite the opposite. They are narrow and short. A very faint effort appears to have been made to have some of the evening frocks look longer than they really are by veiling the silk or satin foundation skirt with a filmy lace or other fabric; but the result is often really grotesque. --- CARRIER Parlors, 2745 Welton Street.
