THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY LEONARD WOOD A MAN FOR ALL THE PEOPLE VOL. XXVI. (Special to Colorado Statesman.) WE ARE living today in a restless age. There exists a dissatisfaction and unrest among the people of the world, a general outcome of the great war. The reconstruction period is presenting many problems that must be solved by the various nations of the world. In the United States we are confronted by many perplexing problems. It is going to take the best brain and sinew to cope with the situation and adjust matters satisfactorily. Whatever adjustments are made must be progressive. In other words, the nation must have for the coming presidential period a man who is progressive in action as well as in word to guide its destinies, and a man who will guide the national policies in the spirit of this new era and not according to prewar standards. He must be a man of a broad and varied experience in order to handle the various classes and nationalities that contribute to the citizenship of our great nation. This man must be one who will deal fairly and squarely with everyone, who has but one standard of right and wrong for all. The country must have a man who is going to deal justly with its citizens whether of capitalist or labor class, rich or poor, and regardless of their nationality, race or creed. He must be a man who believes in liberty and justice for all, who believes in the "all-men-up-and-no-man-down" policy, and finally, a man who will not parley in the face of big issues. Such a man is Gen. Leonard Wood, who was named in South Dakota as a presidential candidate for nomination when the national Republican convention meets in Chicago this June. While General Wood was endorsed at the Republican convention in South Dakota, it was not a local affair, and that he is not a favorite son or a selection made for local reasons is clearly seen in the practical character that the movement on the behalf of his nomination has assumed throughout the country. Leonard Wood is a New England product. He was born in New Hampshire October 9, 1860, and while yet an infant his family moved to Massachusetts, where he was educated. He graduated from the Harvard medical school in 1884 and began his practice in Boston. Tiring of the life of ordinary practitioner, he went into the army and was soon appointed assistant surgeon and first lieutenant. He made such wonderful strides that in five years he became a captain and full surgeon. His first record was made as an Indian fighter under Capt. Henry W. Lawton, later brigadier general. Reporting to General Miles, Lawton said of Wood: "He sought the most difficult work and by his determination and courage rendered a successful issue of the campaign possible." In 1895 Wood was ordered to Washington as assistant attending surgeon, which gave him an opportunity to become acquainted with President McKinley and also with Theodore Roosevelt, who was assistant secretary of the navy at the time. Roosevelt and Wood became congenial companions and fast friends, for both had many tastes and characteristics in common. These two were the organizers of the "Rough Riders," which was officially designated as the First Volunteer Cavalry of the Spanish-American war. Roosevelt insisted that Leonard Wood should be the colonel of this cavalry regiment. Wood was, in a short time, appointed brigadier general, and Roosevelt was advanced from second place to the colonelcy of his "Rough Riders." Wood succeeded General Wheeler as commander of the cavalry brigade in the Santiago campaign and was made military governor of the city and district after the surrender of the Spaniards. This afforded Wood an opportunity to show his wonderful administrative ability. Colonel Roosevelt wrote in the Outlook of January 7, 1899: "I was frequently in Santiago after the surrender, and I never saw Wood when he was not engaged in some one of his multitudinous duties. He was personally superintending the cleaning of the streets; he was personally hearing the most important of the countless complaints made by the Cubans against the Spaniards, Spaniards against the Cubans, and by both against Americans; he was personally engaged in working out a better system sewerage, or in striving to secure the return of the landtillers to the soil. I do not mean that he ever allowed himself to be swamped by mere detail; he is much too good an executive officer not to delegate to others whatever can safely be delegated; but the extraordinary energy of the man himself is such that he can oversee and direct much more than is possible with the ordinary man." (This comes from a man who was a genius in executive ability himself.) Following his remarkable success in Santiago he was appointed governor general of Cuba. He successfully organized the governing forces and administered in such a way that it was not long before the island was turned over to the Cubans for self-government. Under the Roosevelt administration General Wood was sent to the Philippines as military commander and civil governor. In dealing with the Moros and Mahometans, and in instituting a local government preparatory for self-government, he again showed his executive ability. In the World war, though denied the privilege of serving in France, he organized and trained two divisions for service. Leonard Wood's qualifications for the high office of President of this nation may be summarized as follows: 1. He was a disciple and friend of our greatest statesman since Lincoln's time. 2. He administered to the colonies according to their needs. We need a man who will govern us according to our present needs, and he is such a man. 3. He has had experience at home and abroad in handling men who had to be governed. He knows how to meet men in all walks of life. In other words, he knows how to govern fruitfully. 4. His vast experience has taught him how to deal justly with men in every walk of life. State Hiat, & Nat Hiat Soe, State House ADO, WYOMING, MO RADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, S 5. Being a disciple of the immortal Roosevelt, he believes in the principle, "All men up and no man down." 6. His successful and fearless campaigns in the colonies proves he is not a man to parley with an issue. Had he shown the least weakness in his government of the colonies much would have been lost to the country and he would not have been able to receive the hearty support he is receiving throughout the nation. 7. Because of his fearlessness for right he was obscured for a time. There is too much real man in him to be a cat's paw. He is a man of firm and decisive policies and not easily swayed by the winds. Such a man the nation needs. Thus Leonard Wood fulfills the need of the people and of the nation, and becomes a man for the nation and a man for all the people. NATIONAL HEALTH WEEK Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Feb. 28. Because the observance of the National Health Week was established by the late Dr. Brooker T. Washington, bringing about a remarkable change in health conditions among colored people throughout the country and meant a greater economic saving to millions of them and the country, the last session of the annual Tuskegee Negro conference, appreciating the vital importance of this movement, was again inspired to action. Since Dr. Washington so splendidly achieved along this line for the best interest of humanity, a resolution was enthusiastically adopted at the 1919 meeting of the annual Tuskegee Negro Conference, that in connection with the observance of the 1919 National Health Week, the week of the anniversary of his birth, be annually observed as Health Week. Inspired with the spirit of the founder of the conference and seeing that this phase of endeavor would be a fitting recognition of his appreciation of the things for the conservation of the Negro's health and wealth, the annual Tuskegee Negro Conference, held January 21 and 22, 1920, passed a resolution, which said in part: "Therefore, Be it resolved, that the annual Tuskegee Negro Conference accept this suggestion and urge upon the colored people throughout the South to annually make this observance, and, be it further "Resolved, That the week of April 4th to 10th be observed as the National Health Week." The following agencies and organizations, as in previous years, are being invited to observe the National Health Week and exert their influence in helping others to do so. Daily and weekly newspapers, health journals, National Medical Association, National Association of Graduate Nurses, National Association of Colored Women's Club, National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, National Association of Teachers in Colored Schools, National Negro Press Association, the bishops and other officers of the religious denominations, state medical associations, annual church conferences and associations, secret society organizations, colored insurance companies, farmers' conferences, farmers' improvement societies, churches, schools and other local organizations, including state, county and city health officers. CHEYENNE, WYO. NEWS (By Clarence J. Toliver.) ON DECEMBER 5, 1905, a score of women met at the home of Mrs. Harriet B. Landor. They were cultured women, Christians, devoted and loving wives and mothers. After the ladies were comfortably seated, Mrs. Clara G. Ashford, since deceased, arose and made the following address: Ladies: "We have met here at this time to see what can be done to raise the moral standing of our people in Cheyenne. There is much work to do and this work must be done by Christian women. Mrs. Landor and I have prayed to God to direct us in our endeavor to assist those who are in need both physically and morally. Conditions are such that unless we women band together, the cause of Christ and man will not be safeguarded. We must devote our lives to God; redress human wrongs, speak no slander, no, nor listen to it, and reach for higher ideals and lift as we climb." This meeting resulted in the organization of the Woman Searchlight Club of Cheyenne, Wyo., the first and only colored woman's club in this state at that time. This little band of women have been united in deeds of charity, aiding sick and afflicted, assisting fallen girls, and have taken up the study of music, art and literature. The first officers of the Woman Searchlight Club were: Mrs. Clara G. Ashford, president. Mrs. Harriet Brown Landor, vice president. Mrs. Ivy Gray, secretary. Mrs. Ky Gray, secretary. The Searchlight Club is under the jurisdiction of the Federated Colored Womens' Clubs of Colorado. Mrs. Mary Baker is an ex-president of Colorado and jurisdiction. This club was active in Red Cross work, bought several Liberty and Victory bonds and sold ten thousand Red Cross stamps. The present officers are: Mrs. Ollie H. Redd, president. Mrs. Carrie W. Wright, vice president. Mrs. Allie F. Smith, secretary. Mrs. Cora I. Brown, treasurer. Mrs. DeMarge Toliver, corresponding secretary. The Searchlight Club has taken an active part in all the vital questions pertaining to the colored race in state and nation. The club motto: Lifting as we climb to the stars through difficulties. A movement is afoot for a club home. The fifth Sunday of any month havinf five Sundays, is stewardess Sunday. On this day the stewardess sends invitations to members and friends. February 29th, the A. M. E. Church was crowded to capacity. Rev. J. M. Endicott's text was taken from Joshua, XXIV chapter, XV verse: "But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." It was a commendable sermon. Mr. Jake Green is employed as chair car porter on Trains Nos. 21 and 22, Denver to Ogden. Richard Davis, of St. Louis, is a visitor in the city. Mr. and Mrs. M. B. Shelton reside at 707 W. 18th street. Mr. Will Chetam has returned to Cheyenne. He is permanently located on division suit, car. Mr. Ellis returns to Green River, employed on division "super's" car at that point. Mrs. Julia Cockeran is shopping in Denver. The Union Pacific Band is an assured fact. Band meets Monday and Friday evenings. Get in the game and stick. RACENEWS Gathered From Various Sources Tulsa, Okla.—The white Democracy of Tulsa county has established a precedent for Southern states in not only according full political rights to the women voters but in recognizing Negro Democrats by electing two colored men as delegates to the Democratic state convention held at Muskogee during the week beginning Feb. 9. Fred Douglas and E. J. Sadler are the two Negroes chosen as delegates. A number of women delegates were also selected. ERECT MEMORIAL TO COLORED SOLDIERS OF THE GREAT WAR Milledgeville, Ga., Feb. 23.—Harrisburg, a small village in Baldwin county, made up entirely of colored people, is the first community of its kind on record in this state to erect a memorial to colored soldiers of the World war. The monument was unveiled recently, at which time the entire community was present and took part in an elaborate patriotic program. BAR CHINESE CHILDREN FROM WHITE SCHOOLS Jackson, Miss., Feb. 27.—According to a ruling made public by Attorney General Frank Robertson, Chinese children in Mississippi will not be permitted to attend schools with white children. He interpreted the constitutional reference to "colored race" to include all excepting the Caucasian race, and that if Chinese children attend school in Mississippi, they must go to school with members of the "Negro race." KENTUCKY G. O. P. NAME CONVENTION DELEGATES. Louisville, Ky., March 3.—The Kentucky Republican state convention today indorsed A. T. Hert, Gov. E. P. Morrow, Mrs. John Glover South, Frankfort, and Dr. S. H. George, Negro, Paducah, as the four delegates from the state at large to the Republican national convention in Chicago. The convention voted that they shall be uninstructed. RACE TO HAVE DELEGATE AT CONVENTION. St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 21.—The movement set on foot a little more than two months ago by the Citizens' Liberty League to get more political recognition for the Negro at the hands of the Republican party in this city and state, was rewarded by the fulfillment of one of its important principles—a delegate to the national convention. This honor fell upon Rev. S. A. Mooseley, pastor of Tabernacle Baptist Church of this city. This is the first time a Negro has ever been elected delegate from this, the Twelfth Congressional District of this state. The people are congratulating the Citizen's Liberty League for the stand it has taken for the advancement of the race, and, according to a statement by one of the officers, many other good things that the Negroes have never enjoyed before are coming. Stick together. Price McGinnis was the Negro elected alternate. NO.21 GENERAL WOOD CHAMPIONS CAUSE OF COLORED AMERICANS. THE immortal Lincoln was the first great American to deal justly with the black man. He set us free, but the assassin's bullet pierced his brain before he could give to us all the instrumentalities for our advancement as full fledged American citizens. In our generation the late Colonel Theodore Roosevelt opened wide the door of equality to his colored brother when he stood for a square deal to all men regardless of race or color. Booker T. Washington dined with him even though the whole country put up a howl. But now he has been taken from our midst. God in His wise providence, however, has not left us without a champion. He has raised up General Leonard Wood, the greatest living American, to lead His people. You know we need never be disheartened for we are God's children. Leonard Wood publicly addressed us at the Lincoln League, saying: "Today the important thing is Law and Order. There is no group that stands for Law and Order more than you colored people. You should be protected from mob violence. You should have equal rights. There should be no class legislation; we should have a free and untrammeled United States." Not since the days of Lincoln have such words been uttered by a man seeking presidential honors. He tells us where he stands and any candidate for President who does not publicly state his position on the race question cannot expect the colored vote. General Wood will be the next great Republican leader if two million of colored voters have anything to say about it. "A second Teddy, folks! A second Teddy!" Any man or woman twenty-one years old can organize a local Wood club by writing first to the National Colored People's Wood-for-President Club, Indianapolis, Ind., for literature, buttons and other free instructions. This is an opportunity for colored men and women to prove to General Wood that they want a man for President who will give every American, black or white, a Square Deal. INDORSEMENT OF LOWDEN RAISES PROTEST St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 21.—At the convention of the Twelfth Congressional District of Missouri last Tuesday night, a clash between the Negro delegates and Congressman L. C. Dyer was settled only after he (Mr. Dyer) had withdrawn a resolution which he had introduced to instruct the delegates. Mr. Dyer, after having lauded Governor Lowden as a great man and praising him for what he had done for the people of Illinois, and commending him for his stand for justice and fair play toward all, made a motion to instruct the delegates for Mr. Lowden. This action brought down a storm of protest from the Negro delegates present. J. E. Mitchell, editor St. Louis Argus, arose and told the convention how Governor Lowden had acted during the East St. Louis massacre, and declared that the Negroes would oppose any move to indorse Mr. Lowden. Mr. Dyer only made matters worse by trying to defend the Illinoisan, which was followed by some sharp questions from Mr. Mitchell, citing that Governor Lowden had failed to act when first appealed to, "and later," said Mitchell, "he must have been gone a fishing, for he could not be found." Mr. Mitchell was backed by W. G. Matthews and W. H. King. FOREIGN The supreme council of the allies in London have decided that Turkey shall have no navy. Only a few revenue cutters will be left to her. Aviator Casle established what was claimed to be a new speed record in France for conditions under which he made the flight, when his machine attained a speed of 283 kilometers (175.74 miles) an hour. The British government has been formally notified by the State Department at Washington that the appointment of Sir Auckland Geddes as British ambassador to the United States will be agreeable to President Wilson.

After his election the national assembly sent a deputation to escort him to the chamber, where he took the oath and was presented with a draft of the law creating his office. The Italian government has ordered greater restrictions in the feeding of the people than during the war. This is because of the diminished food imports. In addition, rationing by card for all necessaries has been re-established. Two mentless days have been ordered, as well as the closure of all restaurants, hotels, at 11 o'clock at night. Great Britain, which within a year or so hopes to get off the red ink side of the national ledger, faces an outlook until April 1 of a daily deficit of $892,000. From England's standpoint that is quite an improvement over 1919, when the national expenditure was $6,252,000 daily more than income. These figures presume the pound to be worth $4.00. GENERAL Ten persons were held for deportation at Cleveland following a radical raid in which twenty-six persons were rounded up. Sixteen were released. A large amount of radical literature was confiscated.

Ratification of the suffrage amendment failed in the West Virginia Senate, when the resolution for its adoption was met by a tie, 14 to 14. Senator H. W. Hanner, father of the resolution, changed his vote so that he might be in a position to move reconsideration. This made the record vote 13 to 15 against ratification. Destructive radicals, working with the Communist party made an unsuccessful attempt to take over the shipbuilding industry by starting at the Baltimore Dry Docks and Shipping Company with a scheme for gaining control through a shop committee system, are now making a new effort to seize this plant in connection with the present strike situation at that shipyard.

WESTERN The Rt. Rev. Nathaniel Thomas, missionary bishop of Wyoming, has declined the bishopric of Delaware, to which he was elected by the diocesan convention. One of three federal grand jury indictments against Capt. J. F. Blain, former North Pacific district manager of the United States Shipping Board, was dismissed at Seattle by United States District Judge Jeremiah Meterer. Because there are not sufficient school facilities in their own community to accommodate them, several score children daily cross the international boundary line from Calexico, Calif., to attend school in Mexicali, Mex., said a report to the state superintendent of public instruction made public at Sacramento, Calif. A jury in the District Court at Bentrice, Neb., found Orlando W. Langley guilty of murder-in the second degree for the killing of Justice of the Pence Christian H. Pfeiffer at the town of Cortland last August. The killing of Pfeiffer was one of the first tragedies growing out of attempts to enforce the Nebraska prohibition laws. Mayor Lomen of Nome, Alaska, addressing the annual conference of the American Protective Association, advocated repeal of state laws prohibit; ing the sale of venison, asserting that the supply of venison thrown on the market would go far to relieve the food situation. Reindeer, of which there are about 160,000 in Alaska, with prospects of their increasing to millions in twenty years, would furnish enough meat resembling beef "for everybody" if a third of the animals were slaughtered annually, he said. WASHINGTON Aerial mail service "is not costing the public one cent, but is saving the people more than $100,000 a year." Assistant Postmaster General Praeger informed members of the Rotary Club at their "aviation" dinner at New York. Twenty-one prohibition states, represented by Charles E. Hughes, announced to the Supreme Court their intention of fighting the efforts of Rhode Island to have the eighteenth amendment and the Volstead law enforcement declared invalid. Urging naval construction which would give the United States "the largest navy in the world," Rear Admiral Charles J. Badger recommended to the House naval committee that the next annual naval appropriation bill carry a new building program, authorizing the building of two dreadnoughts, one battle cruiser, ten scout cruisers, four destroyers, six submarines and other small craft. In a four to three decision, the Supreme Court refused to dissolve the United States Steel Corporation and its subsidiaries, comprising the so-called "steel trust." The government's long fought suit for dissolution of the iron and steel trade combination for alleged violation of the Sherman anti-trust law was dismissed, with absolution for the corporation from all charges. Senator Reed, Democrat of Missouri, has introduced a resolution calling upon the Senate manufactures committee to investigate the alleged "dealings" operations and "speculation" of the United States Grain Corporation and the alleged wheat pool. Net operating income of the railroads under government control in January fell to $11,000,000, due to the unusually severe weather and the coal strike. This was a deficit of $64,000,000 compared with the average monthly rental paid by the government for the properties, but an unexpected $53,000,000 accruing from back mail pay, under a decision of the Interstate Commerce Commission, reduced the actual loss to $11,000,000. Chances of successful pay check forgeries in the navy were reduced to a minimum when the department ordered that the endorser of every such check must place the impression of the four fingers of his right hand on the back thereof before it will be beached. As a record of the finger prints of every man in the service is kept, it will be practically impossible under the order for a forger to escape identification, officials said. Suits on behalf of forty-three men and two women, backed by the American Legion, have been filed against the Union Pacific at Omaha. A total of $15,000 is asked on the ground that the plaintiffs, nearly all ex-service men, were victims of misleading statements to induce them to invest in an Idaho colonization project.

Pfeiffer at the town of Cortland last August. Pithy News Notes From All Parts of Colorado Western Newspaper Union News Service. What is estimated to be the largest coal vein in the intermountain country has been located two miles north of Duchesne. Its depth is sixty feet. A school survey made by a citizens' committee at Rifle resulted in the request that the school board call a special election for the purpose of voting on a $70,000 bond issue for a new school building. The famous Libby-Belle property of the Park Tunnel Company at Aspen is planning on shipping rich silver ore this year. Some good ore has been discovered. This mine had not been run since the '80s. Two big motor trucks have been received at Kremnling to be used by the county road department during the coming season. They were from the army truck fleet allotted to Colorado for highway work. Because the county road signs have become targets for private rifle and revolver practice, Rlo Blanco county is offering a $50 reward for evidence leading to the conviction of any person defacing the placards. The campaign to raise a budget of $10,000 for the support of the Cafon City Young Men's Christian Association came to a successful finish with the full amount subscribed. A building debt of $2,600 will be paid out of the funds raised, leaving the association completely out of debt. Improvements to cost $200,000, including a memorial assembly hall, a nurse's home and a vocational therapy department are to be started shortly by the Modern Women of America at their sanatorium in Colorado Springs, according to Dr. J. G. Page, new director. Dr. Page succeeds the late Dr. J. A. Rutledge. Several railroad lines centering in Denver are in the market for new equipment. The Burlington is planning for five new mikado type locomotives, the Union Pacific contemplates purchasing forty-five cabooses, 3,000 freight cars, 100 locomotives and sixty-five passenger cars. The Rock Island is bidding for a number of locomotives. Dr. McArthur, a surgeon, showed extreme coolness when he continued an operation after the alarm of fire had been turned in from the hospital in which he was performing the operation at Delta. While the fire was not a dangerous one, Dr. McArthur said that it required all the control he could muster to continue the operation while a blaze was going on on the roof above the room. Fifteen hundred people were on hand at Hooper to witness the "spudding in" of the test well which is to be drilled by the Travelers' Oil and Refining Company for the purpose of deciding whether oil is present in this vicinity. While no oil has been found, numerous gas wells have been brought in, which lead the firm to believe that oil will be located if a deep well is drilled. A standard rig has been erected and the company is prepared to drill to any reasonable depth. Investigation of the newly discovered anthracite coal deposits on McClure's pass, makes the people of that section jubilant, as it brings closer the proposed standard gauge road over McClure pass as proposed by A. E. Carlton and associates. The deposit of anthracite coal is a splendid one. It is understood that a Salt Lake company has organized to develop these anthracite mines and make the McClure pass coal famous throughout the state. The vein of coal is thick and of highest quality. A state land atlas, showing the location and area of state school lands in every county of the state, will shortly be issued by the State Board of Land Commissioners for the benefit of landseekers. The atlas will contain nine plats, showing in detail the lands open to application for purchase. A digest of the state land laws also will be given in the atlas, which will appear in folder form. Schedules for the annual agricultural survey will be sent out to county assessors from the office of the State Board of Immigration about March 1 this year, giving assessors a month to prepare for this work, instead of the few days that were allowed last year, because of the fact that the law providing for this survey was signed only a few days before the actual assessment began. The blanks are in book form this year and will be much easier for assessors to handle than those used in 1919. They will also call for fuller information on crops that are not extensively grown, thus giving better representation to counties that grow garden and seed crops and vegetables for canning to a considerable extent. The new hotel at Grand Lake, to be built this summer, will cost $60,000. The surveying is being done now by F. I. Huntington and N. A. House, and a local contractor has the contract to erect the building. The building will be erected on the National park, joining the townsite. Denver is second in buildings operations for January in the tenth federal reserve district with 204 permits and ninety-three for new buildings and a value of $1,506,100. This is an increase over January, 1919, of 1,826 per cent. CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Blanks for a survey of the manufacturing industry in Colorado have been prepared by the State Immigration Department, with the co-operation of the Denver Industrial Bureau, the Denver Manufacturers' Association and other organizations familiar with the class of information which should be gathered through such a survey. The immigration department has obtained from the Federal Census Bureau a copy of its list of manufacturing establishments in the state, and the schedules will be mailed in a few days to all names appearing on this list. Commercial clubs and other organizations also will be called upon to aid in obtaining the names of new manufacturing establishments not appearing on the list, to the end that no manufacturer in the state shall be overlooked in the survey. An increase in acreage from 800 to more than 5,000 acres of sugar beets is the record which Montrose county has pledged to fulfill this year in order to assure a sugar factory enough sugar beets to operate a 1,000-ton daily capacity factory there. As a guarantee of this increase and production in 1920 the Midwest Sugar Company, which will move its factory from Hamilton City, Calif., to Montrose immediately, has more than 4,000 acres under contract and a written pledge by the leading business men and growers of this county that they will have the other 1,000 acres ready to harvest this fall. The population has grown to such an extent that the $30,000 school building, erected three years ago at Craig, now requires a $50,000 annex, which will be built in the spring. The present high school has a four-year course with special instructors in music, domestic science and manual training and is accredited by colleges and universities of the west. The cattlegrowers of western Colorado are co-operating heartily with the cattlemen of other sections of the state in a bitter fight to prevent the passage of a bill in Congress which will revise the charge for grazing permits on the national forests and eventually lead to the selling of these permits to the highest bidder, regardless of priority of claims and residence. The county commissioners of Douglas have engaged the services of Raymond Miller of Rifle, Colo., as county agriculturist for the coming year. He is a graduate of the State Agricultural College and is highly recommended by that institution. He also has practical experience as a farmer, having operated a ranch near Rifle for some time. Murdoch Nelson, one of Fort Collins' most prominent residents, is dead of heart disease. Mr. Nelson was cashier of the First National Bank at Fort Collins. At the time of his death he was a candidate for delegate to the Republican national convention to be held in Chicago. He left a widow and two children. Berne H. Hopkins, millionaire oil operator of Colorado Springs, and his brother, Albert G. Hopkins, narrowly escaped death near Pring, fifteen miles north of Colorado Springs, on the Denver-Colorado Springs road, when an automobile in which they were riding skidded and plunged down a fifteen-foot embankment. One of the largest real estate deals completed on the western slope in several months took place when Col. Manford W. Smith sold the "Golden Rod" ranch to Fred Light, Sr., for $113,000. This sale includes 890 acres, all the improvements, buildings, machinery, implements and livestock near Aspen. More than 200 gallons of wine, a large quantity of "white mule" whiskey, fifty gallons of raisin mash and thirty gallons of prune mash, in process of fermentation, with a part of a distilling plant, were seized by sheriff's officers in the basement of the dwelling of Mr. and Mrs Joe Jackson in Aguilar. Colorado will be represented among six national delegates who will speak for American woman suffrage in the international convention of suffragists at Madrid, Spain, during the week beginning May 2.

Crawford, predatory animal inspector of Colorado, has completed arrangements here for a war on Archulea county animals that have heretofore been preying on livestock. The death knell has been sounded for the coyote, wolf, mountain lion, lynx and bobcat. The first means for eradication will be traps and poison. Den hunting will be extensively carried on later. Colorado Springs has obtained another convention for next August. The Association of Chief Special Agents of the United States Railroad Administration, which recently has been in session at Omaha, has voted to meet there next summer, according to Charles S. Railsback, special agent for the Santa Fé, who attended the conference. Forest service officers in Colorado are to be appointed deputy state health officers under a plan given approval at a meeting of the State Board of Health in Denver. The forest officials will be empowered to enforce the state laws on health and sanitation and will have the authority to make arrests when necessary. A. W. Frederich has been arrested at Hayden on a charge of selling a brand of stomach bitters which has been condemned, it is said, by the state. The case may reach the higher courts.

Belgium Sketches In Government Service By Katharine Eggleston Roberts (Copyright, 1920, Western Newspaper Union) The striped cat sat on a broken stone in an old Flanders battlefield. She fluffed her tail and glared across her whiskers at Bibi, the pup. "Everybody's always talking about a 'dog's life,' as though it were the hardest in the world. Huh! I wonder how they'd like to be a government cat out here in this devastated country. The rest of you animals don't have anything to do except sit around." The gloomy dog didn't attempt to answer. His drooping eyes stared down the street of newly built huts. "Oh, stop it, Mina; you're always fussing." Siska, the goat, wrinkled her nose in disgust. "Why do you suppose the government gives all of us animals to these people who've come back to rebuild Dixmude and other places if we aren't good for something?" "It's all very well for you to talk, Siska. There's no effort in merely giving milk; and as for Bibi, all he does is bark if he hears a stranger coming at night." Bibi got up and turned around a few times and dropped down on another spot. He was tired of being responsible for everyone's safety, but he didn't feel like arguing about it. "When I was drafted," continued Mina after a pause, "my mother said: 'Mina, it's a fine thing to serve your country, but I hate to see you going to live in those awful places.' Even then she thought I'd get a little milk once in a white. But no! No!" Mina Goats—Reconstruction An grew oratorical. "Siska gives all her milk to the people. There's none for a poor, hard-working cat. Hard-working—that's it! I'm overworked. Do they expect me to catch all the rats and mice in Belgium? These shell holes are full of them. Talk about their underground tunnels. I don't know which has made the most of them, the rats or the Germans. And the homes they've made in those dead trees!—I mean the rats. I tell you I'm just worn out, working night and day." "Well, at least you can eat them. You don't have to live on what little food people can give you, as we do," Bibi finally spoke. "You're not always hungry." "Eat them!" Mina snarled. "They are all I get to eat. I'm sick and tired of mice—and such poor quality, too. Ugh! You've no idea." "Yes, yes, I know. It's the same with what little grass I find. It's rank and weedy. The best kind grows on the edge of the shell pits, but even a Where He Used to Live. goat has trouble to keep from slipping over the brink into the water. The ground is so loose around here. I wish they would raise some vegetables, but with all this iron cluttering the earth. I guess it's impossible. How I would love a good cabbage! As for work—you talk about working! Don't you know I'm supposed to help clean up the place, as well as give milk? Back home I used to be awfully fond of shirts and shoes, but I simply can't make myself swallow those I find out here. "Now don't go getting morbid. You always get morbid. As if things aren't bad enough without talking about them all the time. Have you seen the new --- pigs that came yesterday?" Bibl began a new conversation. "No; how many?" "Five." "I wish they'd send more goats," moaned Siska miserably. "I'm lonely. There's no society at all. It's hard on a well-born goat." "Well, I like that!" Mina's stripes stood out. "I'll tell you, I'm not used to-associating with goats. I hope the next obus you nibbie is loaded. Certainly—" "Now, Mina, you know I didn't mean that. I'm really fond of you and Bibl; but a goat's different, that's all. There are certain things peculiar to a goat—" "Thank heaven, yes," interrupted Mina. "Oh, let Siska finish what she's saying." "Well, as I was saying, I have ideas and desires with which you have no sympathy, because those things hold no interest for you. Now another goat would understand my attitude toward those red flags that mark the ammunition plies. There's an irresistible fascination in them—" "I heard the captain of the camp over there say that the next time you ate one, and left the explosives urmarked, he was going to feed you a grenade," Bibi warned. "That's just it—no one understands a goat. I'm homesick." Siska bowed her head. "Poor old Siska; so am I," Bibi confessed, the tears running down his long brown nose. "Oh, well, I guess that's why I'm grouchy. I simply can't forget my home, and be content." Mina blinked. "I heard Jan Struyf say that's why he came back here. It's where he used to live. His home was down there where the old tank stands." "Uh-huh, I know. He's clearing up the place to build again. Imagine being homesick for this scrambled land!" Siska wagged her beard from side to side. "Still they're all alike," Bibi went on. "They work from dawn till night, and we reconstruction animals were sent here to help. I suppose we mals Ready for Great Task. shouldn't fuss. Wasn't it some old Greek who said, "The world is only my idea.' If that's the case—" "He's getting philosophical; I'm going to leave." Mina stretched her long, slim body. "Oh, look!" The joy of living returned to Siska's eyes. She flirted her short tail and ran. "It's a nice new red flag!" "Do you know," observed Mina to the pup, "sometimes I think that Siska must be Russian." GRAVE HUNTERS STILL BUSY Gangs of Searchers Wander About in Quest of Overlooked Bodies of Fallen Heroes. Ypres is today as she was in 1918. To the east, south and north stretches an ugly, shell-chopped lifeless terrain, where gangs of "body snatchers" (the Tommys' name for grave hunters) are still wandering. Now and then, in some out-of-the-way, grass-stuffed crater they still find a weather-soaked uniform, gray or khaki, with a human skeleton inside it. They gather the bones together in a sack and carry them back to headquarters. Or, they find a forgotten grave, probably marked by a little rain-blackened wooden cross. The battle area is dotted with these crosses—the only epitaph, on some being a rusty trench helmet. The "body snatchers'" job is to dig up the bodies, put them in sacks, too, and bring them away for reburial. Wrecked tanks, wagons, trucks, ammunition dumps, pill boxes are scattered up to the horizon. Four miles down the Menin road from Ypres many British tanks lie in one field, called the "tank cemetery." Shortage of American Leather. There is much complaint on the part of Belgian shoe manufacturers because of the recent heavy purchases from abroad. At the same time local manufacturers are greatly handicapped because of a shortage of all materials, particularly of American leather. With a view of ameliorating the situation the Syndicate of Shoe Manufacturers of Belgium has taken up with the government the question of producing a national standard shoe at a standard price. It is thought that in this way the home manufacturer may be able to produce an article to sell at not more than 50 francs, thus fulfilling an urgent public demand and at the same time stimulating and protecting the national industry. --- NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS Latin America Wants the Monroe Doctrine Defined Latin America Wants the Monroe Doctrine Defined WASHINGTON.—Latin American countries which participated in the peace conference and also those invited to join the League of Nations are watching the request of Salvador that the United States define the Monroe doctrine "Nothing in this covenant shall be deemed to affect the validity of international engagements, such as treaties of arbitration or regional understandings like the Monroe doctrine, for securing the maintenance of peace." "My government recognizes that the Monroe doctrine consolidates the independence of the continental states of Latin America and saved them from the great danger of a European intervention. It realizes that it is a powerful factor in the existence of the democratic form of government in this continent and that it raised a barrier to European colonization. "Since however, the covenant of the League of Nations does not deter mine the purposes nor fix a definite criterion of international relationship in America, and since, on the other hand, the doctrine will be forthwith transformed—in view of the full sanction of the nations of the world—into a principle of universal public law, juris et de jure. I request that your excellency will be good enough to give the authentic interpretation of the Monroe doctrine, as it is understood in the present historical moment." "Stop Throwing Forests Into the Waste Baskets!" "STOP throwing the forests of the country into your waste basket." is the message sent to the business houses of the country by the American Forestry association, which is enlisting the aid of the schools, business houses, and women's organizations in a paper conservation campaign. "A look at those figures will cause some deep thinking on the part of publishers," said Mr. Pack. "We must stop throwing our forests into the waste basket. Business houses can bring about a great saving if they will write the carbon of the letter they are answering on the back of the letter received. This will save paper and cut filing expenses, too." The situation, Mr. Pack declared, will not improve until there is greater production of raw material. One of the pressing problems before the American Paper and Pulp association, which met recently in New York city, was the future raw material supply. It recommended a nation-wide forest survey, better fire protection, and increased planting of trees. One of the first organizations to join the American Forestry association in its campaign for paper conservation is the National Woman's Association of Commerce of Chicago. Miss Florence King, the president, has issued a call to all members connected with business houses to start the agitation at once. "Boiling" Senators Give Soldier a "Square Deal" "Boiling" Senators Give Soldier a "Square Deal" SENATORS got excited the other day over the matter of soldiers and the loss of their private property. In consequence the senate passed a bill to amend the act now in force and give the soldier a better chance to recover series of decisions by the officials of the treasury department have placed such restrictions on the law as to preclude favorable consideration of a majority of the claims which have been filed. These decisions are briefly summarized as follows: The auditor has disallowed all claims for property lost by fire unless claimants can certify that the loss occurred while the claimant was engaged in saving government property. The comptroller has ruled that "money" is not an article of property. The comptroller has recently decided that property lost in France cannot be considered as having been lost "in the field during campaign," unless the claimant was actually in the battle line. This decision will affect practically all losses of personal baggage in the field other than that in course of transportation. Senator Wadsworth said the committee on military affairs "boiled with indignation," and its purpose was to give the soldier a "square deal." Great War Makes Many Millionaires in America Great War Makes Many Millionaires in America AMERICA'S millionaires increased by 1,476 in the first year of the war in Europe. During the second year the increase was twice as great, for in 1916 there were 2,809 more millionaires than in 1915. And in 1918, while the net growth was only 31, the true Of American millionaires, capitalists as a group made up 3,383 of the total; manufacturers who made war material 920, and the producers of food. 120. Corporation officials numbered 716 millionaires. The largest income in 1917 was $34,936,604. The man claimed to be unmarried, which makes him appear to be Standard Oil's daddy, J. D. Rockefeller. A "single woman" received $5,794,559. She may have been Mrs. E. H. Harriman. In the great group of excessively rich over the United States there were 227 classed as "single women." From these latest available figures it is shown that individuals through the income tax returns contributed in 1918 on their 1917 incomes a great total of $361,486,177, while corporations in the same period yielded Uncle Sam's strong boxes just $2,142,445,769.

The state department has acknowledged receipt of the request from Juan Franco Paredes, minister for foreign affairs of Salvador.

SPRING. VEN though we are having an occasional snow at present, yet the E time is fast approaching when we will revel in the idea that Spring has come again, In the enjoyment of an average temperature above 50 degrees, briMant sunshine and pureness of atmosphere, it necessarily follows that an awakening of thought, spirit and action should be pos- sessed by us, and acting in concert with the beautiful strains that proceed from the birds as they floy from branch to branch heralding the incoming from the birds as they fly from branch to branch heralding the incoming progress and betterment of the present state of business. ‘As we go along the business section of the city we notice stores being renovated, new stock in the various lines being installed, wagon after wagon awaiting its turn to be unloaded of its valuable freight, and the people in their usual manner peering in at the windows to eatch the first glimpse of spring garments, The blessings of spring are too innumerable to mention herein, but we can with all our hearts give praise and thanks to Him who provides the seasons for the comfort and enjoyment of all creation, and with this fact alone we will rejoice in the season that brings us good cheer—Spring! PERSONAL HABITS AND MORALS. HAT personal habits and morals are closely related no one will deny, Ie put that they are one and the same thing no one will affirm. Personal habits may erystalize into character, but character is an individual and not a public property. ‘To be true a number of persons of similar character in a community may give the community the appearance of a certain type or class and thus cause the reputation or standing of the entire locality to be affected. Indeed this seems to be the ease in Denver at the present time, If persons of uncertain character predom- inate, then the reputation of the whole community takes on a certain flexibility, but after all a sharp distinction ought to be made between the habits of a people which are purely personal, and the habits which inter- fere with the rights of another. While every one would be glad to see the community lifted up in their personal tone, yet no one feels like in- voking the Legislature to pass upon our private morals. ‘The wiseacres of Battle Creek may be all right in what they allege against coffee drink- ing, but when people call coffee drinkers immoral and sinners, they at- tack the morals of many who up to date have been considered among our noblest and best men and women. To be a crank is not quite the same thing as being immoral, although some cranks labor under this delusion. What we need to discern {s that right distinctions are necessary to differentiate those customs that offend good society and those that simply affect ourselves and satisfy our own tastes. ; RAISING THE STANDARD. fl te general standard of the American Negro is lower than it should be, because it is lower than it need be, It is lower than it need be be- cause the Negro entertains a misconception of the fundamental sources of success and happiness, The Negro is too impatient of solid racial effort, and endeavors to leap aver the hard, tedious, formative period of permanent racial development and to attain the higher and easier stations of life at a single bound. Racial advancement, of course, rests upon the effort of the individual, but individual effort is better shaped to the gen- eral needs of the people than to the selfish aims and desires of the indi- vidual alone, By that we mean that an individual Negro may so shape his course as to win personal success without bringing much eredit to his race, and that is just what many Negroes are doing. The ever-present example of the white man, which should be highly beneficial, is often injurious, because we are inclined to skip over that part of it which represents hardship and patient sacrifice, to attain the higher forms of happiness which he has slowly earned. We may sometimes shrewdly take advantage of the white man’s conditions and rise to the apparent level of his social or commereial prosperity, but when we do so, we leave our race behind. When we jump. from the ox cart to the automobile we leave the race in the ox cart. ‘This is thought to be within the range of legitimate per- sonal privilege, but it usually calls for a big sacrifice of what might be, and ought to be turned into a racial asset. The incidentally successful Negro seldom turns his success to the benefit of his race, but selfishly endeavors to get away from his own. A glance over the lists of our rich individuals will reveal the truth of this assertion in a majority of cases, especially in the North, and too often in the South. ‘The trouble lies in the fact that we do not shape our energies so as to gain success and wealth out of.our own conditions, but we believe those conditions too slow and barren, rely upon somé relation or deal in which the white man is concerned. Hence, when we succeed, we think we owe cur race.nothing, and usually live accordingly. The short-sighted aversion of our educated and intelligent men and women to devoting themselves to pure and absolute raclal enterprise in their fundamental and necessary forms of development, is at the bottom of all this. Great individual suc- cesses and a corresponding and inseparable degree of racial improvements are thereby lost. Everybody Must Learn English to Make Americans a Homogeneous People. By HOKE SMITH, U.

Family Court to Guard Children of the Rich Is Now an Imperative Need. By W. L. BODINE, fenicags Supt. Compulsory Education. The tables are turned. Intemperance formerly disrupted the poor man’s home and his children suffered. If the intemperate scenes that were enacted in the poor man’s home before prohibition created delin- quents in the tenements, will it not do likewise in the mansions of the rich. The law has placed the poor man on the water wagon, but the rich man’s cellars are filled with the bottled ghosts of John Barleycorn. The fast pace of parents means the slow child at school. It is imperative that a “family court” be established which will reach beyond the jurisdiction of the so-called slums “into” houses where the children of the rich need mbre attention than the neglected poor. : A family court would awaken parents to their duty to raise good citi- zens instead of bad ones. We need more old-fashioned spankings. It has been truthfully said that one good mother is worth a dozen institutions. If this is supplemented with a good father, it means a con- structive factor at home—and the family court backed by an expansion of the juvenile court law to awaken parents to their plain duty, would mean more good fathers, more good mothers, the betterment of the rising gen- eration and the better nation with the greater nation in the future. Conerete Hut in Place of Igloo Will Hasten Extinction of Eskimos. By VILHJALMUR STEFANSSON, Arctic Explorer. ‘The movement to modernize the Eskimo by providing him with con- crete huts in place of his picturesque snow “igloos,” as suggested by an official of the United States bureau of fisheries, would be the death of the denizen of the icy north. Not only is the Eskimo devoted to his age-long habitation as the South Sea islanders are to their traditional garb of flower garlands and fresh smiles, but he is far healthier, warmer and more com- fortable in his domed mansion of snow than he could be in any modern house of concrete. ‘Their igloo serves as a home for two or three weeks. ‘Then they build a new one, Because it is new it is clean and sanitary. It is as warm and comfortable as your library ‘The concrete hut, like the wooden hut, must be uncomfortable and unsanitary. Whenever the natives have changed from the snow to the wooden home there has followed pneumonia and typhoid and a tremendous increase in the death rate. ‘The Eskimos are a migratory race. Contact with civilization has af- fected them and they are dying off. They must soon be extinct, and the concrete hut hastens that extinction. New Theory of Relativity May Upset All Ideas of Physical Science. * By R. D. CARMICHAEL, Scientist and Author. It is reported that astronomers and physicists of England are just now greatly interested in what seems to many to be a demonstration of the’ new principle of relativity, which has been a subject of hot debate among scientists for the last few years. ‘An examination of photographic plates taken during the solar eclipse of last May shows a deflection of the rays of light from the stars in their passage past the sun of 1.7 seconds of arc, just the amount predicted by Finstein’s theory of relativity. ‘The many considerations which arise in this new theory suggest the desirability or even the necessity of a fresh analysis of the foundations of physical science. The present state of affairs will probably give rise to a considerable body of controversial literature in scientific circles. If the outcome of this controversy is the acceptance in the main of the theory of relativity, it will lead to a great modification of our views of the nature which surrounds us. We will be forced to analyze anew the philosophical foundations of science, and the grounds of our confidence in its conclusions will be modified by a new penetrating analysis. It is not inconceivable that we are at the beginning of a period in which the world of scientific thought will be turned upside down by such new theories as that of relativity, and we shall have to seek anew the means to anchor our intellectual life. Such experience, though unpleasant, always leads to progress. ANNOUNCEMENT SAMUEL D. NICHOLSON OF LEADVILLE TO THE MEN AND WOMEN OF COLORADO T have received and read with great interest the many requests from the citizens of the various counties of the State, urging me to beeome a candidate of the Republican Party for the office of United States Senator. It & unnecessary for me to say the selection of any citizen for that high office should be greatly appreciated, and it is so treated by me; and affirming my allegiance to the Republican Party and my firm belief Mm its principles, hereby submit myself as a candidate for nomination to the office of Senator of the United States. Tn connection with this announcement, it is proper to state the general principles for which I stand, and by which I will be controlled, if elected. T believe that the happiness and welfare of the people depend upon upholding, in all its integrity, the Constitution of the United States, and in maintaining a benevolent, yet firm, government of law and order, remem- bering always that equality of rights is the very essence of Republicanism. ‘We should deal fairly and justly with all foreign nations, seeking their good will and cultivating their friendship; and should always stand ready to extend our aid, moral and financial, to unfortunate peoples. But what we may do in that direction we should do of our own freo will, for the sake of humanity and not under compulsion of any law or force su- perior to the will of the American people. 1 am opposed to any alliance with any foreign nation or nations which will call for the surrender or abdication of any of the sovereignty or independence of the United States. The Republican Party, through its senators in the National Congress, has declared the positign of the Party on the League of Nations, and with that declaration I am in hearty accord. } ‘The solution of the social and economic questions which are pressing “upon us do not require the surrender of any of our principles of govern- ‘nent or any substantial alteration in our political system, but those ques- tions should be approached in the Rooseveltian spirit of “True American- Ism" and the square deal. Favoring the conservation of our natural resources as against waste and exploitation, I am opposed to any policy which will bar the home- seeker or the miner from the public domain, or lay unreasonable restric- tions or regulations in his way; and am opposed to any policy which will | prevent the development of any resource for which there is a present reasonable need. I believe that our immigration laws should be so modified as to pre- ‘vent effectively the admission of undesirable aliens; and that aliens seek- ‘ing to become citizens should be required to learn the English language, ard to be instructed, at the public expense, in the fundamental principles ‘of our government and the duties of citizenship. : Further legislation, both National and State, must be enacted in behalf of the veterans of the Civil, Spanish and the World wars, those brave and patriotic American citizens who fought for our Country as well as their ‘dependents, to all of whom our Nation owes a debt which can never be paid. Their protection and welfare must be given first consideration, and ‘special preference must be given them in all Government employment. ; ‘The farmer, stockgrower and miner are the producers upon whose labors rests our whole industrial fabric, and ff elected, T shall give special attention and consideration to their needs, believing, as I do, that they have not received the consideration to which they are entitled, in either ‘national or state legislation. Public office is a public trust; and public funds are trust funds, and {n the disposition thereof there must be exercised the greatest care and “the strictest economy, and I unqualifiedly favor a National Budget System. “Equal rights to all and special privileges to none,” instead of being a hackneyed phrase, should become a living, vital principle, and legislators ‘should ever bear in mind that without social justice there can be no equal- ity; and without equality, there can be no true liberty. And by ‘justice’ { do not mean law justice, but that natural justice which springs from the ‘protherhood of man and which clearly defines for all Americans what is right and fair and just as between man and man. j While the rights of property must be deemed sacred under our Con- stitution and laws, the rights of man are still more sacred, and while capital should have full, adequate and complete protection under the law. the chief object of government and the chief aim of all legislation should ‘be to promote the welfare and happiness of the people. And that, as I understand it, was the beginning and end of the Republicanism of Lincoln and Roosevelt. + In 1894 I had my first opportunity to, and did, vote for “Woman's “Suffrage,” and have never had reason to doubt the wisdom of my action and the right and justice of the cause. Both National and State legislation must be enacted to suppress and prevent profiteering, and I pledge my efforts to that end. Residing in this State since boyhood, I am indebted to Colorado and her people for whatever success 1 may have enjoyed, and appreciating that fact, and believing I know the needs of both, my life work will be devoted to their interests. Haying no college degree, the only diploma which I possess is that of | moderate success, awarded me by the University of Experience after many years of honest toil and honorable business enterprise which had its begin- ning with a miner’s pick. My life among you for forty years has been an open book, and upon ‘it and upon the principles here stated, I stand as a candidate, with the assurance that the party nominee, whoever he may be, will recelve my cor- ‘dial and hearty support on election day. Respectfully yours, SAMUEL D. NICHOLSON. 1 Leadville, February 18, 1920. ITH such a plain, out-spoken manifesto as the above, we cannot W help publishing our admission of that which warrants and in- sures the support of that portion of the public whose require- ments for a fearless and upright representative to champion their cause and uphold the free institutions of a country—a government will be found in Samuel D. Nicholson. While the announcement as a whole is very impressive, yet there are two points that touch the very core of our standing as a nation and cur participation in the present order of the world’s civilization: ‘‘Equal rights to all and special privileges to none, instead of being a hackneyed phrase, should become a living vital principle; and the other with reference to our treatment to foreigners and our moral and financial support to un- fortunate people in which Mr. Nicholson says: ‘We should deal fairly and justly with all foreign nations, seek their good will and cultivate their friendship, and of our own free will should always stand ready to extend our aid, moral and finaneial, to unfortunate peoples.’? To one’s mind these two points filled with so much of the response to the demand of the thinking American of today should place this candidate at high water mark in the hearts of his sup- porters, and if the knock at the door of reason and conscientious thought be heard and favorably responded to, the prospective eandi- date for United States Senator can begin to realize a large measure of success as well as paving the way to a majority support of the people of Colorado. At this time in our state’s life, our country’s trying moments, the national test that confronts us, strong men are needed, who not only stand for law and order, but whole-hearted sup- port of the Abraham Lincoln institution—the Unity of the People— an undivided nation, making for an impregnable foree and the old ‘system of sending a man to represent a constituency because of some ‘pet idea, or some great propaganda which in the main is impracti- ‘cal and unworkable, must give way to the modern methods of prov- ‘ing first eo aspirant’s ability to grasp the momentous ques- ‘tions of the day, and secondly, his national spirit of JUSTICE and RIGHT to/be meted out to all the people, irrespective of class or race. As we said one cannot but be impressed with this announcement if he ‘reads and carefully digests it, and laying hold of the early oppor- ‘tunity to get their minds riveted on the kind of individual for leader- ‘ship in representing our affairs in the nation’s law-making body, Mr. ‘Samuel D. Nicholson feels justified in coming forward and enlisting the full share of support from the people of Colorado necessary to insure his success. THE COLORADO STATESMAN John H. Lange, formerly with the Denver Star, has accepted a position with Stouter Publishing Co., 1735 Lawrence street, as Job compositor. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO. FUNERAL NOTICES.

Tax Returns for 1919 Show Total of $54,858,301, as Against $47,423,449 for the Previous Year. Atlanta, Ga.—Colored citizens of Georgia paid taxes during 1919 on property worth $54,858,301, or $7,434,852 more than during 1918, an increase of 15 per cent. These figures are obtained from a tabulation of returns from all the counties, issued by Tax Clerk William B. Harrison of the comptroller general's office. For 1918 they paid taxes on $47,423,449. A comparison of the various classes of property returned with the returns of the preceding year is as follows: Farming lands, $16,095,593; 1918, $13,979,380. City and town property, $15,208,043; 1918, $13,987,665. Automobiles, $1,860,261; 1918, $946,031. Money and solvent debts, $563,079; 1918, $701,538. Merchandise, $392,032; 1918, $267,969.

The debate last Sunday afternoon on the Federal Prohibition Amendment was exciting to say the least. Those attending declared that it brought to their minds scenes and experiences of their college days. The affirmative was supported by Mr. Sie Green, a well-known Denver humorist, and Miss Sarah G. Russell, while Mr. Grover C. Grant and Secretary Thomas J. Bell supported the negative. The judges were Mrs. M. Z. DeFrantz, Miss Anna L. Lee and Mr. William Herndon. The contest was considered a tie. Mrs. M. E. Morrison and young Miss Glenn performed acceptably on the trombone and piano respectively.

Mr. and Mrs. Gaithen of Espito and Mrs. Fred Hayes of Sacramento, Calif., were there with their children. Space will not permit the names of the children and all the parents and friends that attended this party. At a late hour in the afternoon dinner was served and every one had a real feast. Little Harvey and Helen received many beautiful presents. Mrs. Dorenda Munsfield, Mrs. H. H Williams, Mr. Hogan and Mrs. S.

Keith at the Second Baptist Church Sunday at 2:30 p. m. for the benefit of the church was grand. The recital lasted for little over an hour. The church was well filled and all enjoyed the program to the very highest. Rev. Muse filled his pulpit both morning and evening. The Women's Home and Foreign Missionary Society had charge of the service in the evening. Rev. Muse preached an excellent sermon. Text: "She hath wrought a good work on me." Mrs. M.

No Two Persons Are Alike Difference in Hands, Feet and Limbs Mothers' Cook Book Follow the true course of your life, but keep your eyes open for all beautiful sights, and the ears responsive to all harp monious sound, as you go steadily forward. A Day's Meals. When it is not possible to have fresh fruit for the morning meal, on It is a scientific fact that no two persons in the world are alike. Stop for a moment and think and one will realize that this is true. Take any one of your friends and you will easily recall that while two have one or more points of similarity there are a dozen different features in which they do not agree at all. Whoever heard of twins that were alike in everything? They may look the same in a general way, but they are not; there will be one or more characteristics that will absolutely identify one from the other. Getting down to actual facts, no two sides of a person are alike; the left is different from the right. The right hand is larger than the left, but the left foot is nearly always larger than the right. A person's right arm is longer, heavier and larger than the left, possibly because it is the working arm of the body, while the law of opposites decrees that the left leg shall be slightly larger than the right. Again, one ear is always larger than the other or one shoulder is higher than its companion, and so it goes on down the line. Louis Crommelin Chiefly Responsible for Progress of Irish Linen Industry Louis Crommein, who fled from France after the repeal of the Edict of Nantes in 1699, is chiefly responsible for the Irish linen industry. When he left France he was accompanied by a number of refugees who helped him greatly improve the Irish linen trade. In 1711, when the board of trustees was formed to encourage and extend the manufacture of linen in Ireland, the machinery in use was very simple and was worked principally by hand. Soon after, in 1725, new machinery was invented and applied for many of the processes. In 1765 Dr. James Ferguson of Belfast received a premium from the linen board for the successful application of lime in linen bleaching. He introduced the use of sulphuric acid in 1770. Up to that time the acid employed was buttermilk and soll of cattle applied instead of alkali. After that improvements took place rapidly. Potash for making dye to boil the yarns and cloth came into use in 1789, and choride of lime, the bleaching agent, in 1795. America Is Surpassed by Europe in Eating Potatoes In this country the chief and practically only interest in the potato today is as a vegetable for the table. We are greatly surpassed in this use by Europe, and Germany in particular. In that land the average annual per capita consumption was seven bushels in normal times, while our own was two and a half. The laborers of eastern Germany ate seventeen bushels per annum. The other European countries are, as a rule, far above us and the diet of many an Irishman is said to be potatoes and spring water—for breakfast, dinner and supper. In addition to this direct consumption, uses of the potato largely unknown to Uncle Sam are for flour, starch, dextrine, glucose and alcohol. Duty to Childhood. Men of today have a duty to childhood because they themselves have once been children. Each generation is a recipient in its turn of the accumulated wisdom and plety of previous ages, and is in duty bound to pass that on, "plus a certain increment due to its own exertion." Mothers' Cook Book Follow the true course of your life, but keep your eyes open for all beautiful sights, and the ears responsive to all harmonious sound, as you go steadily forward. A Day's Meals. When it is not possible to have fresh fruit for the morning meal, or when a variety is liked, a dish of well stewed prunes with very little sugar is a most wholesome fruit. They can always be kept on hand at any season, and are a storehouse of medicinal as well as food value. In buying prunes it is never economy to take the small ones as they are usually all pit. Examine the stones or pits and buy the kind that has the least waste; you will pay a higher price, but they are worth it. Wash them well in warm water and then soak them over night. Simmer until tender in the same water in which they were soaked. They will require little sugar, for which, these days "we are very thankful." Whole wheat right from the granary is especially good for growing children. When well cooked, and served with top milk it is the ideal breakfast food for the whole family. It will need to be soaked over night then cooked all day at a low temperature to soften the grain. When a small supper dish, something hot is desired, try Escalloped Celery. Cook the outer stalks cut in small pieces until tender, drain and add to a rich white sauce. Bake until thoroughly heated and serve from the baking dish. Another which is very good is Cheese and Crumbs. Take two cupfuls of soft bread crumbs, a cupful or less of grated cheese, one and one-half cupfuls of milk, one egg and salt and pepper to taste. Soak the bread five minutes in the milk, add the other ingredients and bake. Serve hot. Filled Cookies. Take one-third of a cupful of butter substitute, one cupful of sugar, two teaspoonfuls of cream of tartar and one of soda, half a cupful of milk and three cupfuls of flour. Salt and flavoring to taste. Roll out and place a filling (cooked) of half a cupful of sugar, a tablespoonful of flour, one cupful of chopped raisins and half cupful of water with the rind and juice of half a lemon. Cover with another cooky and when all are covered bake in a hot oven. Swiss Steak Take a pound and a half of round steak, lay it on a meat board and with the edge of a heavy saucer pound in as much flour well seasoned with salt and pepper as it will hold. A good cupful will not be too much. Brown in a very hot frying pan with a sliced onion, add water to cover and simmer for an hour or two over a low burner or on the back of the range. A tablespoonful of vinegar added with the water if the meat is very tough will help to soften the tough fibers of the meat. THIS AND THAT A woman never thinks of her husband as a gambler as long as he doesn't lose. A successful man forms plans and sticks to them, working like a gimlet to a point. If it wasn't for his wife a man would never know anything worth knowing about his neighbors. What a girl in love calls a square meal wouldn't pass as a free lunch with the average man. Of All Sounds in Nature, Few Thrill Like Bark of Squirrel, Naturalist Says "As one pushes through the fringe of undergrowth which skirts the forest and seats himself, at daybreak, on a stump or a fallen tree to watch and listen, the woods become instinct with life," says Arthur F. Rice in boys' Life. "The blue jay sounds his trumpet call, the crows hold noisy consultation over their plans for the day and a ruffled grouse whips the twigs of the pine with her wing as she leaves her roost. The chipmunks scurry about from stump to stump, now rushing precipitately to cover, now coming forth again to take a critical view of the intruder. Their larger cousins, the red squirrels, come out from the hemlocks and, perching on a dead branch, rattle out a challenge to all comers. At last comes the sound for which you have been waiting and which makes the heart beat faster. It is a thrashing among the boughs of the hollow maple nearby, telling you that the gray squirrel is out after his breakfast. "Away he goes toward some big oak or hickory, scattering a shower of dew from the leaves as he jumps from limb to limb, revealing his course by the springing branches he leaves behind him. If his suspicions are aroused by anything he sees or hears, he stops, cocks himself up on a limb or plasters himself against a tree trunk and, barks disapprovingly, accented each syllable with a jerk of his broad tail. Of all the sounds in nature, there are few which thrill me like the bark of the gray squirrel." Chinese Schools in Java Established With Hope of Keeping Language Alive In the hope of preserving a knowledge of the Chinese language, literature and the Confucian ethics, Huel Kuan schools were established in every large town in Java as a bait to the youth of the land. The schools are thoroughly modernized and a youngster can study English and other European languages, geography, history and a score of other things under competent instructors, so long as Chinese is studied at the same time. As further inducement to attendance, all Chinese instruction is carried on in the mandarin, or official, Chinese language, so that any student who returns to China will be prepared to talk to the educated of all provinces and will not be confined to petty boundaries of any of the numerous Southern dialects. Chinese, however, gets little attention from the students, who seem to regard the study of it as useless drudgery, and who devote their whole time and interests to the subjects which will be of most assistance to them in the commercial world. All local business in Java is conducted in Malay, and all foreign business in English. Scores of patriotic youngsters who graduate from Huel Kuan schools go to China yearly, upon their graduation, and enter military colleges there, eventually finding their way into the Chinese army. Evidence Indicates Indian Late Comer, Compared With Residents During Ice Age Several scientific investigators agree that the Indian as we know him is a comparatively late comer. Whether he arrived by way of Alaska from Asia may never be discovered, but the relics of his civilization are believed to date back not more than a few thousand years at most, observes a writer in Boys' Life. There is much evidence on the other hand to indicate that men lived in North America at the close of the ice age and perhaps during the glacial period. The evidence is found for the most part in the Ohio and Delaware valleys. The rude instruments these men used in their hunting and homes have been found buried deep in gravel which is believed to date back to the close of the ice age. If this be the case men lived in America 10,000 or 15,000 years ago. Some geologists believe that the gravel deposits are considerably older. How these men found their way to America in remote antiquity, how much of the land they occupied and where they disappeared are perhaps the most fascinating problems in American archaeology. The patient investigations of many trained scientists are carrying us every day nearer the answer. Chipmunk Stores Plenty of Food for Winter Use The chipmunk is a provident little chap, and stores up a prodigious quantity of food, sometimes a peck or more of nuts and grain; and when snugly hidden in his winding burrow, the mouth of which he closes when the cold season arrives, a hard winter has no torrors for him. His enemies, the hawks, owls and weasels, may go hungry, but safe in the bosom of mother earth, with the warm mantle of the snow above him, the chipmunk passes a cosy winter, in the midst of comfort and plenty, dreaming of the time when the south wind shall blow again and the squirrel cups shall open once more.—Boys' Life. Bakes and Boils A gas oven with which food can be baked and boiled at the same time is a Californian's invention. BLAME ON PAPER Atrocious Wall Coverings Cause of Bad Temper. In Article on the Subject, English Journal Makes Serious Charges Against Designers Who Give "It isn't your liver which is wrong, it is your will power!" may possible be the exclamation of the doctor in the near future. Instead of sending round to the chemist for salts and senna, the man who feels his nerves to be jangled, his digestion to be rotten and a taste in his mouth like sucked pennles, will call in the men with the ladders, the paste bucket and the slapdash brushes. Many a man thinks he is bad tempered and takes himself seriously to task, as he reads his paper in the train, for having left behind him a family in tears, when really, he is perfectly innocent. If he did break out and say things and slam doors and throw things about and ask who had been chopping firewood with his best razor and call the breakfast bacon "putrid"—it probably was—it was not that he was "ratty," but that the wallpaper all over his house was enough to give a rhinoceros a thin skin, a writer in London Answers asserts. In the days before wallpapers were invented the world bred quite a large and regular crop of saints. The reason no new saint ever appears on the horizon is due to wallpapers. Who could be a saint and live with the atrocious convolutions, evolutions and pyrotechnics of the modern wallpaper? The thing is impossible. A wall covered with a fruit salad of cherries, with leaves to match, may be borne with for a day, or even a week, but when it comes to living with it a whole year, and often much more, it gets on the nerves and frays the edges of the nervous system. Then there is the flower paper, a few degrees worse than the fruit salad contraption. A little red rose or two scattered broadcast on a nice, creamy background may be all right, but when it comes to what the Covent garden porter calls "A market bunch" repeated all over the wall 520 times it is calculated to send a Galapagos tortoise into hopping madness. Then it is a funny thing how wallpaper designers love big flowers. They wouldn't be seen looking at a daisy or a primrose, but put a sunflower or a dahlia or a rhododendron or a prize chrysanthemum or some mixture of all these which makes a flower no one ever saw outside an opium dream and they go for it with avidity and reproduce it by the hundred gross! Paperhangers would be well advised to change their method of advertising their craft. It is no use to put up a sign simply saying that you are a house decorator, "estimates free," and that sort of rot. Say, rather: "N. O. Arsnik, Professor of Rest Cure. Are you jumpy? Do you tremble when you see a job of work? Are you given to language? Do you assault the gas meter man and set the dog on the tax gatherer? What you want is a new wallpaper or two—something in low tones, restful and soothing." "Giddap!" The Stars and Stripes propheses that long after the last of the American forces have left France echoes of Yankee vernacular will linger among the French peasantry, and to bear out its prophecy it tells the following story of a good woman at Vouvray, a suburb of Tours, who bought at a sale, conducted by our remount service, a horse with which on the whole she was well pleased. When, however, she had it only a short time a private from the Tours barracks came upon the worried old lady, circling horse and cart in a vain effort to get the beast to start. "How goes it, maidame?" he inquired. "Ah, monsieur, he is a bon cheval, but he understands not the French. How is it you say 'allez!' monsieur?" "Volla, madame," he replied, and took the reins and with a single "gid-dap!" urged the horse into action. "Ah, mercl, monsieur, mercl!" exclaimed the amazed and delighted woman. If ten years from now she remembers no more than "giddap!"—well, that's something. Secretary Baker a "Bartender" Secretary B. Yankey "I might have a chance to get a job after March 4, 1921," said Secretary of War Baker the other day, "if it had not been for the prohibition business. "Once when I was mayor of Cleveland I had a hand in settling a labor row. When it was all over one of the men asked me if I carried a union card. I replied that I did not, but would be very glad to have the chance to do so. In the next day's mail I got a card entitling me to life membership in the bartenders' union. "I carry the card to this day, but now I am afraid it will not do me much good."—New York Sun. Unnecessary Work. The other day when the second grade teacher announced the singing lesson she noticed that Russell was reading a story book. "Put away your book, dear, while we are learning to sing," she said. "But I don't really need to learn how to sing," he calmly protested. "You see, we have a phonograph at our house." FRENCH TERMS ARE FINAL PARLIAMENT WILL NOT GRANT CONCESSIONS THAT WOULD CAUSE DOWNFALL. TURKEY IS STRIPPED RETAINS ONLY SACRED PLACES AND ADRIANOPLE BY TREATY BEING COMPLETED. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Paris, March 5.—The French government will make determined opposition to any revision of the treaty of Versailles that would modify her claims on Germany, it has been learned. The attitude of the French government, according to the official point of view, is in perfect accord with the sentiments of the new Chamber of Deputies. It is held that any further concessions by the French government to Germany would not be tolerated by Parliament and, if made, the government would be overthrown. The French official view of the economic situation, it was stated in authoritative circles, is "the same as that set forth in London," that is, that Europe must be put on a prosperous basis. The French, however, it was pointed out, are beginning to think their allies have forgotten that France herself is not on a prosperous basis and not in a position to make concessions that would affect her own economic interests to any one, least of all to Germany. London.—Turkey is stripped of virtually all her territory in Europe, but retains the sacred places and Adrianope by the treaty now being completed by the conference of foreign ministers and ambassadors, it has become known. The Evening Standard states that the allied Supreme Council has decided to allow Germany to launch an international loan, because it is recognized that Germany ruined would mean a weak and dangerous spot in Europe. The loan, the newspaper says, would take precedence over any indemnity payments Germany is called upon to make. Constantinople.—In view of the gravity of the situation the cabinet has resigned. The sultan has called upon Marshal Izzet Pasha to form a new cabinet. Izzet Pasha is a partisan of Mustapha Kemal Pasha, the leader of the Turkish nationalists. His designation as head of the new cabinet is regarded here as a distinct trimmph for the Nationalists over the sultan and the more conservative leaders. Faints at Name of Landis. Chicago.—Max Stein, dealer in notions, fainted twice. His first collapse came when a deputy United States marshal was reading a summons calling him into Judge Landis' court to explain why he was selling bonus Legion buttons to slackers and anybody else who could produce the price. When the deputy reached the name of Judge Landis, Stein fainted dead away. Holland to Guard Kaiser. The Hague.—The draft of Holland's answer to the second allied note regarding the extradition of the former German emperor is completed. It is learned that Holland, while reiterating her refusal to surrender Wilhelm, expressed her willingness to guard him and also her realization of the necessity of safeguarding the world's peace. Bogus Messengers Get $10,000, New York.—Two new robberies in the financial district in which bogus messengers escaped with $10,000 worth of bonds and securities have been reported here. The thefts aggregating $200, 000 have been reported in the last few days, according to Assistant District Attorney Dooling. The thefts of securities, Mr. Dooling declared, have occurred from Jacksonville, Fla., to Toronto, Canada, and from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Urge Bureau for Women. Washington.—Prompt legislation in establishing a woman's bureau in the Labor Department to deal with problems of women workers was urged by Secretary Wilson and representatives of more than a score of women's unions before the Senate and House labor committees. Twelve million women now are engaged in gainful occupations, Mary Van Fleck of the Russell Sage foundation told the meeting. Take U.

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) In the present sugar shortage it is advisable, even if sugar can be procured to use molasses or some kind of sipur in place of it in the formulas used for curing pork, according to specialists. If sugar is used for dry curing, it is better, anyway, to make it into a sipur before using, for salt mixed with sugar will not stick on meat as well as salt mixed with sipur. The use of molasses or commercial sipur does away with this extra work. The following formulas have been found to give good results: **Sweet Pickle or Brine Cure.** Select pieces, 12 pounds or less. Make a pickle consisting of: pickle for 30 days. con, 18 days. After the meat h week, take it all out rel, remove the p meat, weight it down the same pickle over peat every week. **Dry C** (Applicable to eith meat.) Mix thorough 3% pounds salt. 1 ounce saltpeter. 1 ounce red pepper. 1 ounce black peper. Then add 1½ poul molasses and mix it assumes the appes. Apply a liberal co mixture to all surf excepting the skin. The meat should t $1 \frac{1}{4}$ pounds sirup or molasses, or if preferred, $1 \frac{1}{4}$ pounds sugar, preferably brown. 1 ounce saltpeter. $2 \frac{1}{4}$ gallons water. (These amounts are based on 50 pounds of meat. If more or less meat is used, the amounts of the ingredients should be correspondingly increased or decreased, as the case may be. Under no circumstances should the individual piece of meat weigh over 12 pounds.) Place the meat in a stone jar or hardwood barrel, and weight it down with a board and stone. Do not use iron, for it will rust. Then pour in just pickle enough to cover the meat. Leave the meat in the pickle three days to the pound of meat, so that a 10磅 ham would be left in the MORE VEGETABLES IN WINTER ARE FAVORED MORE VEGETABLES IN WINTER ARE FAVORED Salts of Many Kinds Are Needed for Good Health. Plentiful Supply Will Keep Children Well and Make Their Meals More Appetizing—Canned Product Needs Seasoning. Vegetables should be freely included in the winter diet as well as in the summer one. Doctors say that that tired-out feeling which many people have at the end of winter—"spring fever"—often comes from a lack of fruits and vegetables in the winter diet. Plenty of vegetables keep the children well and make their meals more appetizing. Vegetables mashed and put through a sieve are more easily digested by little children. Salts of many kinds are needed by the body, or it will not work smoothly. Vegetables and fruit are rich in them and if you eat a variety you are sure to get all the kinds of salt you need. When the water in which vegetables are cooked is thrown away, valuable salts are often wasted. Sometimes the flavor is not desirable, but if it is good save this water for soup or gravy. An even better process is to cook the vegetables in as little water as possible so there is none left to drain off, or bake or steam them. Canned and dried vegetables often need only skillful seasoning to make them taste as good as the fresh variety. Canned corn is very good when turned into a baking dish with the addition of milk and seasoning added, heated through, in the oven, and allowed to brown on top. Outside stalks of celery, a green pepper, or both, chopped and added before baking, will vary the flavor of the dish. A small can of spinach, chard, or beet tops, combined with rice or bread crumbs, will serve seven or eight people if it is made into a loaf. Asparagus or string beans are also good served in this way. 1 can chopped spin- 2 cups white sauce ach 1 red pepper 4 cups boiled rice Make a thick white sauce of two cups of milk, four tablespoons of flour, four tablespoons of butter, and one teaspoon of salt. Melt fat and mix with flour, add to milk and stir over the fire until it thickens. Mix with the rice, chopped spinach, and pepper. Form into a loaf and bake 20 or 30 minutes. Investigations with dried vegetables, which have been conducted in the experimental kitchen of the United States department of agriculture, show that provided the dried vegetables are of good quality they are quite as satisfactory when they are cooked without previous soaking, as when soaked, and oftentimes better. 1 ounce saltpeter. pickle for 30 days, and a 6-pound bacon, 18 days. After the meat has been in cure a week, take it all out of the jar or barrel, remove the pickle, replace the meat, weight it down, and again pour the same pickle over the meat. Repeat every week. Dry Cure. (Applicable to either light or heavy meat.) Mix thoroughly— 3 $ \frac{1}{2} $ pounds salt. 1 ounce saltpeter. 1 ounce red pepper. 1 ounce black pepper. Then add $1\frac{1}{2}$ pounds warm sirup or molasses, and mix with the above until it assumes the appearance of sawdust. Apply a liberal coating of the above mixture to all surfaces of the meat, excepting the skin. The meat should then be placed on a table, clean floor, or in a hardwood barrel, after first sprinkling the surface of the table, floor, or bottom of the barrel with salt. Leave all the meat in cure undisturbed until the heaviest piece has been in for a period of $1\frac{1}{2}$ days to the pound. Thus if the heaviest ham weighs 20 pounds, leave all the meat in cure 30 days. Meats cured in sweet pickle or brine should be consumed within 90 days from date of cure. Meats cured with dry cure may be consumed immediately upon removal from cure, but the flavor improves with age, and the meat is better 60 days after curing. Dry-cured hams have been known to keep three or four years. PROPER COOKING IS SECRET When Well Cooked Cornmeal and Oat meal Are Most Delicious Porridges for Breakfast. Cornmeal and oatmeal are among the cheapest of cereals, and when well cooked make delicious breakfast porridges. The dislike which many people have for them is because they are too often served half cooked and insufficiently salted. In this condition they are among the most unattractive of foods, but when well cooked and served with cream or rich milk they are delicious, and there are few who find them unappetizing. To make a delicious cornmeal mush for five people use $1\frac{1}{2}$ cups of cornmeal. 2 level teaspoons of salt, and 5 or 6 cups of water. Bring the salted water to a boil and stir in the cornmeal slowly. Be careful not to let it lump. Cook the porridge at least 30 minutes. The flavor is greatly improved when it is cooked for 3 hours or over night. This should be done in a double boiler on the back of the stove or in a fireless cooker. For oatmeal porridge, use $2\frac{1}{2}$ cups of rolled oats, $2\frac{1}{2}$ level teaspoons of salt, and 5 or 6 cups of water. When the water is boiling, stir the rolled oats slowly into it and cook the porridge for one hour, or, still better, over night. PREPARING FIGS AND DATES Fruits Should Be Carefully Washed Before Eating Because of Exposure to Contagion. Dried figs and dates should be washed carefully before being eaten as they have been exposed for an unknown length of time to possible contagion by flies and dirty hands. In how many houses are oranges washed before they are brought to the table, or the lemons before they are sliced for tea or lemonade, or before the skin is grated for flavoring? Yet orange and lemon skins often are very dirty. Shelled nuts purchased in the market should always be washed, scalded, and dried by a clean cloth before they are used. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Whites of eggs should be beaten with the spiral eggbeater. Oysters chopped and served in the gravy of a juicy steak are delicious. Always be sure, when you buy meat, to have the butcher send home the trimmings.

To three tablespoonfuls of pork fat add The whites will come off oranges if held under cold water and scraped. Cover ponched eggs just a minute before serving to give them the pretty pink, glazed look. Water forms at least three tablespoonfuls of flour, stir until well blended, then pour on gradually one and one-half cupfuls of cold milk. Boil and add one cupful of finked halibut or haddock, three-fourths of a cupful of potato cubes, which have been cooked, the pork scraps, and the yolks of two eggs. Season and serve hot. once a week with cold coffee or tea; it will make them very luxuriant. Add a little chopped cabbage and apple to the ordinary potato salad to give it a little unusual flavor. Canned pineapple juice cooked with sago or tapioca and served with cream, using a garnish of chopped pineapple, makes a most dainty dessert. Mock Crab.—Melt four tablespoonfuls of butter, add one-half cupful of flour, one and one-half teaspoonfuls of salt, three-fourths teaspoonful of mustard, one-fourth teaspoonful of paprika. When well blended pour gradually while stirring constantly one and one-half cupfuls of scalded milk. Bring to the boiling point and add one can of kornlet, one egg lightly beaten, three teaspoonfuls of Worcestershire sauce. Turn into a buttered dish, cover with a cupful of buttered crumbs and bake until brown. A small amount of preserves stirred into cake crumbs and flavored with a drop of rose, garnished with whipped cream, makes another easy and good dessert. For a delicious layer cake filling take one cupful of maple sirup and stir thick with powdered sugar, add nuts to the filling and use the plain mixture for the top. One new thing a day is the rule for the evening meal conversation. Each contributes something of interest, making the gathering a cheery, happy event. Head Lettuce With Pears.—A most attractive and appetizing salad is this: Arrange the crisp heart leaves of lettuce on the salad plates and fill each nest with eighths of carefully peeled pears. A few strips of red pepper placed over them as a garnish adds to the appearance, but paprika may be used, sprinkled over the dressing. If French dressing is used, add a bit of onion and a dash of cayenne. When running sash window curtains on rods which are not smooth at the ends, use an old glove finger over the rod. When cooking rice, save enough to make griddle cakes for breakfast. Add one cupful of rice to the batter. Use some for supper or luncheon dish with meat and tomato. Coffee-Date Pudding—Soak a box of gelatin in one-half cupful of cold coffee. Add a pint of boiling coffee, one-half cupful of sugar and a pinch of salt. Strain and cool. When beginning to thicken add one-half pound of quartered dates and a half cupful of walnut meats. Serve with cream. When tying a package and you have no one to put a finger on the string to hold it, slip the end you are tying twice under the string; the knot will not slip while you finish tying it. Halves of pears and peaches with chopped nuts and any liked salad dressing make delicious and quickly made salads.

Serve with top milk. This is food especially good for growing children. COFFEE value per pound as meat, and is much more economical to buy. Cheese has been called hard to digest, because being rich it slips down with little mastication and being in hard lumps in the stomach does often cause distress. This same compactness which gives us such valuable food in small compass, makes it harder of digestion unless it is eaten with coarse food, such as dry crackers or vegetables which need good mastication. Green Soup.—Wash two quarts of spinach in several waters. Wash, peel and chop five three small turnips, two onions, a bunch of celery and a sprig of parsley. Fry the vegetables gently in four tablespoonfuls of butter. Add one pint of water and simmer until tender. Mix two tablespoonfuls of flour with a little milk, add it to one and one-half pints of milk, let boll five minutes. Put all the vegetables through a sieve, then add the hot milk and serve with fried bread. Other meat substitutes which will lend variety to the diet are whole wheat, dried beans, peas and lentils, peanuts, walnuts, pecans, eggs, butter, cream, olive oil, milk, macaroni, and rice. Dried fruits as well as fresh are indispensable in a well balanced diet. These foods in various forms and in combinations with others will give a sufficient variety. Spanish Eggs.—Cook together one cupful of stewed tomatoes and one clove of garlic, finely minced, one chopped onion, two sweet green peppers seeded and chopped. Cook gently until reduced one-half. Spread on thin slices of buttered toast and lay a peached or fried egg on each slice. Children, when teething and suffering with swollen gums, will be greatly refreshed by cool fruit juice or scraped apple. A worrying baby is often sufferieg for frequent drinks of pure, cool water. It is well to remember that young children and animals cannot tell us what they need, and often suffer because of the carelessness of those who should be responsible. Boiled Fish In Court Bouillon.—Mince one onion, one stalk of celery, three sprigs of parsley. Fry them in a little butter, add two teaspoonfuls of salt, six pepper corn, a bay leaf, three cloves, two quarts of boiling water, one pint of vinegar. Boll fifteen minutes, strain and keep to use in boiling fish. Rub the fish with salt and lemon juice and put in the boiling liquor; simmer until the flesh falls from the bones. Foods which must be denied children should not be placed temptingly before them—a strong reason for having the children eat alone. Their food should be palatable and attractively served. Table manners may be learned very early which will never have to be relearned. Maple Junket.—Warm just lukewarm one quart of milk, add one dissolved junket tablet, one-third of a cup of maple sugar and pour into sheert cup. Serve with grated maple sugar and cream, or a pudding sauce made of two-thirds of a cup of maple sugar, two tablespoonfuls of flour, one cupful of boiling water, two tablespoonfuls of butter and vanilla to flavor. Currants and raisins may be cleaned by rubbing them with flour, then shake it off to remove all dust. To get the flavor of orange for tea, sauce or for any other dish, rub a cube of sugar over the rind to absorb the essential oil. One orange will furnish flavor for two or three cubes. Escaloped Celery With Cheese. Cook the rough coarse portions of celery, cut in blits, until tender, add to a rich white sauce in layers with cheese. Bake in a moderate oven until the cheese is melted. Drop the yolks of eggs left over into a cup and cover with cold water.

TAILORED SUITS FOR SPRING WEAR M BOUDOIR PILLOWS BOUDOIR PILLOWS © Western Newspaper Union --- COLORADO STATESMAN The Mouth-Piece of the People of Colorado and the Entire West A RELIABLE chronicle of their doings and progress; a faithful mirror of their wants, their hopes, their best aspirations. THE choice of a tailored suit for spring gives one more concern than any other item in the wardrobe, except the hat that is to go with it. The woman who knows how to clothes herself correctly, from head to toe for the street, in unostentatious but elegant garb, as full of style as it is quiet—well, she will command admiration. No one can outshine her. She must begin by studying her own peculiarities, considering her figure and her own style. Some women look best in the plainest suits, but they are rather few. Women of this day have a great advantage because the needs of all figures and all styles are very carefully studied by professional designers. They plan to conceal the angles of women who are too slender and to lengthen the curves of those who are too stout. They incorporate new style features and manage them adroitly, and they introduce color or omit it, so as to suit every one. THE COLORADO STATESMAN The new spring suits are swinging away from the fanciful styles of the past season and are somewhat plain- BOUDOIR Unequaled as an advertising medium for the business of professional men and women. An excellent family journal speaking to and for many thousand colored citizens. T IS hard to decide which of two things is most vitally interesting to the female of the species, and they are the clothing she wears and the furnishing of her home. Except for the care and thought she bestows on her family, nothing engrosses her as these things do. It is an instinct with women to want to be attractively clothed and to make their homes attractive, and let us hope that these things will remain uppermost in her ambition. TWODOLLARSAYEAR A great deal of attention is given now to pillows for different parts of the house—those for the living room, the porch and the bedrooms—which they help to make inviting and restful. Cretonnes and other cheerful and durable fabrics serve for porch furnishings, silks, tapestries, plushes and other more pretentious fabrics take care of the living rooms, while bedroom or boudoir pillows avail themselves of daimy laces, embroideries, silks, ribbons and even georgette crepe and chiffons. Most of these boudoir pillows are first covered with silk in light colors er. Vests in contrasting colors and made of silk, for which there was a furore last spring, have reappeared, but they do not dominate the styles, for there are many coats without vests to be worn over the popular lingerie waists. Braid and buttons are sparingly used, embroideries flourish and there is a pronounced liking for neat effects. Coats are shorter than they were; jacket styles have attained some importance; skirts are about shoe-top length, the extremely short models which Paris launched, finding themselves rejected in this country. The two suits shown above may be taken as types worth considering; that one having a vest of crossbar fantasial silk and vertical accordeon plaits in cont and skirt revealing new features in the mode. Silvered Net. Silvered net plays a large part in young girls' evening frocks. The net cones in all the accepted evening colors, and the silvering is accomplished by machine in a scroll design. Usually the net is scalloped like lace at the edge. PILLOWS © Western Newspaper Union and over these colored foundations the dainty washable covers are fitted. They may be kept clean, and they must be, to preserve their chief charm. Bows of ribbon, small clusters of silk flowers help to furnish them with the "splendor dear to woman." For making them the same sheer fabrics and laces serve as milady uses for many of her own garments; they match up with her negligees. Julia Bottomly What is described as the cuff turban is an interesting new small hat. A Paris model is of hatters' plush and is finished with a scroll embroidered mesh vell that is uniquely draped over the hat. In Paris the novelty of the hour is the big paradise bird, which almost covers one side of a hat or toque, and one of the best Rue de la Palx milliners declares hers are but horsehair cleverly dyed. --- THE WONDER ART OF GROW A Complete Course or Personal I The Peerless tem, Ready MON Doorway to Pros MADAM C.
