LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON RACE RELATIONS AT ATLAN TA MAY 30TH TO JUNE 2ND GEORGIA AND ATLANTA INVITE N. A. A. C. P. TO HOLD ELEVENTH ANNUAL SESSION IN SOUTHERN CITY. VOL. XXVI. NATIONAL CONF RACE RELATION TA MAY 30T GEORGIA AND ATLANTA INV ELEVENTH ANNUAL SESS THE National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Moorfield Story, president, will hold its eleventh annual national convention at Atlanta from May 30 to June 2, at the invitation of the governor of Georgia, the mayor and the Chamber of Commerce of Atlanta and the Committee on Church Co-operation of the same city representing sixty-nine Protestant churches. Delegates from the entire country, representing over 90,000 members from 328 branches in forty-three states, of whom 80,000 are colored, will attend. Free and frank discussion on the betterment of the relations between the races will be the purpose of the four days' conference. Prominent men and women from all sections of the country will contribute to the program. The conference has a particular significance this year because of the men participating and because it is the first conference of its kind held in Georgia. There will be twelve white and nine colored speakers at the four sessions, and expressions of their opinion will be followed by public discussion. Among the speakers are: Governor Hugh M. Dorsey, Mayor James L. Key of Atlanta; Mr. Moorfield Storey, president of the association; Mrs. Florence Kelley; Dr. Plato Durham, dean of Emory University, Atlanta; Rev. C. B. Wilmer, president of the Protestant Episcopal Church, Atlanta; Miss Mary White Ovington; Charles Edward Russell, and leaders of the colored race, including Dr. W. E. B. Du Bois, Bishop John Hurst, Rev. R. W. Bagnall of Detroit and James Weldon Johnson. Resolutions will be drawn up by the conference and presented to the President of the United States and both houses of Congress. They will be based on the subjects before the conference; on the first day, the labor problem and migration; on the second day, lynching and segregation; on the third day, education and the ballot. On Tuesday afternoon, the Spingarn medal will be presented for the greatest achievement during the preceding year, by a person of African descent, in any line of honorable human endeavor. Dr. James H. Dillard, president of the Jeannes, will present this medal. The announcement of the association adds: "By this conference and the free discussion of men and women from all over the country, we shall try to secure greater justice for the Negro where inequality and injustice now exist." ANOTHER KIND OF "COME-BACK." Asheville, N. C., May 13.—The colored waiter is coming into fashion again in this city. Colored waiters are now being used in the leading restaurants being the first to return to their use. An interesting phase of the situation is that the white waiters are not trying to break away from the col- ored men, but are working side by side with them. If the experiment proves a success other cafes in the city will adopt the plan, it is said. NEGRO NOW MILLIONAIRE FROM OIL ROYALTY FROM LOUISIANA COTTON PATCH. Shreveport, La.—Charley Jackson is a millionaire. His little farm, located in 24-21-8, in Claiborne parish, now has many producing wells on it, some of them being among the largest producers in the Homer field. Two of the wells were drilled by George Baird, each having a production of approximately 5,000 barrels, and the Louisiana Oil & Refining Corporation, the Arkansas Natural Gas Company and others have some of the best producers that have been drilled in the shallow sand in the Homer field, Still others are being drilled, and no dry holes have yet resulted on Jackson's land. This is only one instance of the sudden transposition of a Negro from the class of a poor farmer to a millionaire oil man. Two others can be mentioned in connection with the development of the wonderful field in Claiborne parish. One of these is William Chatman, who is drawing a good fat check each month from royalties for oil produced on his land, and William Hardy, another Negro, upon whose land the Frost Oil Company has four wells, which it is reported were recently sold for $1,500,000. LOUISIANA COLORED MAN DELE GATE AT LARGE TO NATIONAL CONVENTION. Sorrel Made Delegate to National Republican Convention. Plaquemine, La., May 19.—At the Republican state convention held in Alexandria, Eli W. Sorrell, of Plaquemine, was elected one of the delegates at large to the National Convention to be held at Chicago in June. While this was not altogether unexpected, since it was known the erstwhile Lily White faction of the party had settled upon him as a delegate, it was, nevertheless, an honor worthy bestowed since there is probably not a more clean-handed and trustworthy colored man in the state than Eli Sorrell, whose reputation as a good citizen in this parish well be envied by many white men. In years gone by Sorrell held several good positions of honor and trust under the federal government, and was at one time vice president of the Board of Trustees of Southern University. The board consists of four colored and eight white men. Sorrell was appointed twice by Governor Blanchard and since by Governors Sanders and Hall.

Columbus, Ohio, May 20.—There was formally opened in this city one of the prettiest and most thoroughly modern hospitals built and owned and conducted by colored professional men in the country. Being the first hospital of its kind to be built and conducted by colored men in Ohio, the very appropriate name of Alpha hospital has been given the institution. The hospital was conceived, built and equipped by Dr. M. A. Method, surgeon and physician and graduate of the medical department of the Ohio State University, and Dr. R. M. Tribett, surgeon dentist, graduate of Howard University. Both of these men, although enjoying a wonderful practice in their particular lines, felt the need of a hospital wherein colored physicians might operate—might have an opportunity to realize the dream of every medical man—become a specialist. Alpha hospital contains rooms for eighteen beds, in addition to operating room, X-ray outfit, all necessary rooms requisite for a modern hospital. Its staff will comprise a number of the best known colored and white medical experts in the city. WOODLAND, CAL., NEWS Mrs. L.

ANTI-LYNCH LAW SOON TO BE VOTED ON BY CONGRESS. An "anti-lynching law" was reported out today by the House Judiciary Committee, and placed on the calendar for early consideration. Under the measure, any resident would be entitled to appeal to federal courts for protection on the ground that he had reasonable cause to believe that equal protection of the laws would be denied him in state courts. Participants in mobs would be subject to fine and imprisonment, and counties in which lynchings occur would be subject to a forfeiture of $10,000. The majority committee report was drafted by Representative Dyer, Republican, Missouri. JOHN S. DURHAM WILLS $150,000 TO HIS WIDOW The will of John S.

Memphis, Tenn., May 21.—Without giving the slightest warning, patrolman Bryant (white) of the Twelfth NO.33 ward shot and instantly killed Lee Turner, 27 E. Iowa avenue, as the latter stepped from his engine in the yards of the Illinois Central railroad. Turner has been a highly respected employé of the railroad for many years, and had accumulated much wealth. According to reports, Officer Bryant ordered Turner to throw up his hands. Turner, it is said, refused to obey the request, not knowing Bryant was an officer. Without announcing himself, Bryant opened fire. Turner has in the past been carrying large sums of money. He had been robbed twice, on one occasion of $2,000 in diamonds and $500 in money, and on another of $9,000. He was a locomotive fireman. CHICAGO BANKING HOUSE REC OGNIZES NEGROES. Chicago, Ill.—One of the most significant signs of the times is the development of investment propensities among the people of our group. This has been demonstrated in recent months as never before by Kriebel & Co., investment bankers, a large banking firm of Chicago. As recognition of the possibilities for investment, this well known and reputable firm secured the services of F. V. Babb, one of the most progressive young men of that community, whose reputation for honesty and fair dealing is unquestioned. Mr. Babb entered the office of this institution with zeal and determination, and has had signal success in disposing of listed stocks of the highest grade. So remarkable has been his success in a constructive and efficient manner that the firm has decided to establish a branch office on the South Side, in the neighborhood of the new business center of Indiana avenue and Thirty-fifth street, promoting Mr. Babb to manager of the new department. Mr. Babb is recording secretary of the Chicago Business League and a prominent member of the Appomattox Club. WEALTHY WHITE MAN RAPES COLORED CHILD. Lancaster, Wis., May 20. — Jack Green, an aged colored man of this city, was acquitted by a verdict of "justifiable homicide" by a jury in the Criminal Court for the killing of William Duncan, a wealthy white auto dealer of this city. The cause of the killing was the raping of Green's 14-year-old daughter by Duncan. Evidence produced at the trial proved that Duncan had outraged the girl and then threatened her with death if she divulged the crime. The attorneys who defended the father of the girl declared that their client was justified in the killing because the civil authorities had failed to apprehend Duncan upon the charges made by Green of Duncan's continued advances toward his child. Green, they declared, had appealed to the police and to the civil powers without avail and then, crazed by the shame, he had killed the spoiler. The jury took the view of the defendant's lawyer and acquitted Green.

The origin of the American Indian is a matter of dispute. Ethnologically, the Indian resembles most closely certain Mongolian and Siberian peoples. It is, therefore, believed by most authorities that his ancestors crossed from Asia to Alaska and thence down the coast of North America. A grave marker dug up near Seattle disclosed a remarkable testimonial to the durability of Washington red cedar says the American Forestry Magazine of Washington. The date of death was December 30, 1868. The marker remained in almost perfect state of preservation. When sewing-room beeswax begins to look dingy, it may be melted and remolded. The grime drops off at once when the wax is melted on the surface of boiling water, and gives a clean piece of beeswax when remolded. --- DENVER CUSTOMERS Look up all your household needs, mark them on this list, and bring it with you. A Ventilation Test. Mrs. Newlywed was speaking proudly to her caller of their new house, and told of its baving hollow block construction, thus insuring plenty of ventilation. "I don't think your modern dwelling has anything on our old-fashioned frame house in that respect," returned her caller. "Every night we lock the cat in the cellar and let her out of the attic in the morning."—Boston Transcript. Grease Spots. When grease is spilled on a hardwood floor it can be hardened and scraped off if cold water is poured on. If it is not detected immediately, cover the grease spot with starch or powdered chalk, which will absorb most of the grease. It can then be washed off with hot soapsuds. Beaver's Habits Fixed. A careful study of beaver indicates that their acts, habits and customs are all instinctive, having in no way improved or advanced their original customs since the discovery of the species. They build their dams and lodges, provide their food supply and pursue the same course as they did thousands of years ago. Scholtz Mutual DRUG COMPANY.

MAN who sleeps so peacefully in the splendid mausoleum on the banks MAN who sleeps so peacefully in the splendid mausoleum on the banks of the Hudson—Ulysses S. Grant—deserves all the fame that has come to him, and all the gratitude that has been showered upon him by his fellow countrymen. In 1861, as appeared also to be the case in 1913, the great determining factor was force—the armed might of the nation. In the attempt at a settlement of the difficulties between the northern and southern sections of our common country everything had been tried in the line of discussion, argument, pleading and prayer. On the hustings, in legislative halls and senate chambers, everywhere, earnest efforts were made to reach the compromise which would avert the danger which threatened the nation's peace, but all was in vain, and presently grim-visaged war was upon us with all its horrors. The brothers were at each other's throats and the supreme question was, "Shall the Union be preserved?" With "malice toward none and with charity for all," Mr. Lincoln, as the executive head of the nation, resolved that the Union should be saved. To that proposition he dedicated himself body, mind and soul, and with the energy that was commensurate with his patriotism the great man prepared the armed might which was to carry his purpose into effect. But American was fighting American. The best blood in the world ran in the veins of the fighters on both sides of the conflict, and for a long time the issue of the mighty struggle was in doubt. It will be remembered how general after general, with large and splendidly equipped armies, crossed the Potomac, fought with characteristic American vior, and came back without victory. Patterson, McDowell, McChellan, Burnside, Pope, Hooker, failed to bring Lincoln the victory he sent them out to win for him; and the great man in the White House was "sorrowful nigh unto death." He never despaired, but God alone knows the agonies he endured in his silent soul. Had Lincoln lived he might have enabled us, by reading between the lines of his story, to learn something of what he suffered during the dark and gloomy period from Bull Run to Gettysburg; but even as it is we know, from his intimate friends, that the good man came as near despairing as it was possible for one of his large faith to come. However, in the moving back and forth of destiny's shuttle, it came to pass that the man from Illinois was intrusted with the stupendous task of beating the Army of Northern Virginia with Lee at its head. It was that army that bore up on its bayonets the fortunes of the Confederacy; and if that army could be defeated the victory would be won and the Union saved. With the common sense and directness that always marked his thought and action, Grant, immediately after the assurance from the president that he was not to be interfered with in the formation and execution of his plan, started out straight for Lee's army. Not Richmond or any other place was to be his objective, but only the Army of Northern Virginia. We know how he went about his work, home he steak to that work, and now at last, he finished it. The advance from the Rapidan, the angled Wilderness, the death-gran ples in that Wilderness, the fearful losses from the first clash down to the bloody defeat at Cold Harbor, and then straight on after Lee's army to Petersburg, and the nearly twelve months' siege and, finally, the death grip at Appomattox! The hard horse sense and iron will had done their work; the Army of Northern Virginia, annihilated by the remorseless attrition, was no more; and the Union was saved. Grant did it. There is no telling how long the war might have gone on but for Grant, or some one like him, and the "one like him" did not appear to exist. There is a fact in connection with Grant's life that but few people are Copyright Underwood & Underwood acquainted with, a fact that shows the shortsightedness of some who are supposed to be wise. The fact is this: that just before the battle of Fort Donelson, Generals Haleck and McClellan had decided to cashier Grant, had actually written the order, but held it back to see what the result at Donelson would be. Grant won at Donelson; rose higher and higher; won more victories; in the supreme hour was picked out by the president for the position of lieutenant general, in which position he saved the Union and laid hold upon the immortality he so richly deserves. This nation has received a new baptism of fire. It has been put to a new test and come through triumphant. America is stronger than ever, more militant for justice than ever, more appreciative than ever of the liberty which her sons unsheathed the sword to defend. It has been a time of trial for all of us. America was put to the test before the world. Thanks to the patriotic stamina of the country's youth. America stood the test and emerges triumphant. A few years and the Grand Army of the Republic departs forever; let these years be theirs. Let processes be magnificent and the fading blue their chief adornment.

TOMORROW brings forcibly to us a reminder which is dual in form—the paying of respects to our dead heroes, which is fraught with the natural feature of sadness and the impressiveness of our gain from the loss of their lives. The story is too well known for repetition herein, but we are glad to state that the celebration of the day has gone beyond the confines of war, and has filled the role of reminding families and relatives of their departed loved ones whose existence here has left them many examples which have helped to mould and shape their present career. It is not giving the flowers to the dead, but it seems so timely and charitable that we should decorate the graves and tombs of those who have predeceased us, thereby showing our token of affection, and at the same time affording us an opportunity for self-examination. CLEANLINESS. WE HAVE published a number of articles on Clean-Up Day which we thought ought to open the minds of our people as to the necessity of entertaining that grand quality, Cleanliness which is second to Godliness, but on our coming in contact with certain proofs which stare us in the face, we cannot help from emphasizing the need for better attention and obedience to this admirable adjunct to man's existence. The ministerial fraternity of our city, having planned to give addresses from their various pulpits on this subject tomorrow, we hope our ministers will enter heartily in the spirit of the day and make such stirring and impressive appeals to their congregations as we are sure to reap innumerable benefits from this worthy act. Of interest to health, the most invaluable, as the cleanliness of our premises offers no contribution to the breeding of disease germs, but rather make attractive our homes, our city and everything around and about us. Taking a serious view of the great and wonderful results achieved by keeping clean, one cannot but denounce any action which tends to lend forgetfulness to this most desiring quality. We hope, therefore, that in accordance with self-preservation and in cheerful respone to the requests of our board of health, sanitary authorities, etc., we will engage in this manly action and in our little sphere do all we can to improve that which is health, pure and simple, getting rid for all time of that dirt which is baneful in its tendency and deadly in its effect. OUR NEXT MOVE. THE various religious bodies have just concluded their periodical conferences and conventions in which were discussed the great questions pertaining to a closer union among the denominations and an inter-relationship among the body of Christians who are endeavoring to impress the world that their doctrine is the only agency by which men will be brought from darkness to light, from barbarism to civilization, thereby rescuing him from being victimized by the hand of CRUEL PREJUDICE and making him acceptable to his fellow man and his Creator. These institutions play their part in contributing to the citizens' support of good government, as in their respective petitions to the Head of all governments we hear them invoking Divine help for guidance in the affairs of state; making requests that the leaders in principal, as well as subordinate, positions be given wisdom to govern and conduct the nations safely through the devious pathways that may confront them; taking such active parts in the practical application of Christianity as to create a bond of unity that will establish in man's mind that "he is his brothers keeper," and therefore a harmonious relationship must exist irrespective of his station in life, whether of the highest social order or the humble and lowly sphere. Having followed the meetings of these organizations recently held in different parts of the country and observing carefully their deliberations on the momentous questions of the day, we arrive at this fact, that there is a great endeavor to bring about uniformity of method or system in carrying out the task set before them so that the mind may no longer be burdened with the multiplied channels and agencies that ofttimes lead only to mislead; and, as we observe, we ask ourselves whether THIS NEXT MOVE OF OURS, our country's political situation in 1920, could not be met with a strong determination to bring the people's minds into a realization of the responsibility resting on them, so that a keen interest in the government of the people by the people would result in electing a leader in whom our confidence would be unshaken and who would command that international respect placing us on a higher plane in the estimation of haughty nations of the world. The Republican convention to be held in Chicago beginning June 8th will arouse every lover of good government, every supporter of things that are best for the people of the United States to a sense of duty, and delegates and their alternates will be put to the test of selecting a leader for the Republican party who will pledge the maintenance of our free institutions heralded to the world ever since the inception of our government—the freedom of press, freedom of speech, the inalienable right of citizenship which makes us all equal in the eyes of our constitution and makes us boast of ONE PEOPLE, ONE NATION, ONE FLAG. THE COLORADO STATESMAN again prays for peace within the ranks of the Grand Old Party, and in its fight for forty years for giving the proof that this country can only be governed best when Republicans determine to take the stand which is beneficial to all the people, will be on the spot to take its usual place, urging and advocating the support of the best man for this great job—the government of a great nation. This is our next move and all Americans—the term that has no strings attached—will be vitally interested in this cause which is ours while we claim citizenship. The Teacher's Profession Must Be Made Inviting to the Strongest Talent. The Teacher's Profession Must Be Made Inviting to the Strongest Talent. Mr. Chairman, I instituted at the beginning of last month a survey, writing to every state superintendent in the United States, also to a great number of principals of normal schools, also to quite a number of the superintendents of secondary schools. BARNARD J. FROST On the basis of the returns salaries of nearly 8,000 teachers in New York city are less than the wages paid to anyone of twelve mechanical occupations in the city of Chicago. It is worth, per year, $394 more to carry bricks than to train children, $363 more to mold dough for bread than to mold boys and girls into citizenship of the world's greatest republic. In summing up I make the following recapitulation of my survey: A lack of teachers to supply the needs of teaching. Pronounced lowering of the standards of efficiency to supply the vacancies caused by resignations, and so forth. Alarming falling off of attendance in normal schools, which are our chief supply for teachers. Striking lowering of the school tone. From the various reports we note that the war demands drained the profession of its most able, progressive, and ambitious teachers. Since the war many of these have chosen not to return. The country's effort to secure more teachers in a wide campaign has emphasized the fact of loss to the profession and has further discouraged entry into the profession of less desire than others. The emphasis of the past generations upon the material side of life has largely materialized, if not venalized, the profession to the extent that the profession has suffered both from a lowering of the standard of patriotic service in its personnel and also from a degrading of the profession in the public mind. The country must set about in an intense system of education to embrace every agency of training, especially in our school system to insure against un-American doctrines. These problems of government can not be cured by law, but by education. It is not a matter of restraint, but of attitude of mind. Both great political parties must take a decisive stand to place education upon that basis which will enable it to become the chief agency for the security of a perpetuity of our nation and the things for which it stands. The one supreme demand is to exalt the profession and make it inviting to the strongest talent of the country. No Maudlin Sentiment Should Prevent Cutting Out Foreign Leeches. By MRS. G. T. GUERNSEY, Retiring President D. A. R. In the recent days the American government has been deporting scores of men and women who never drew one single breath of the American spirit. To transform a foreign alien into an American citizen is something more than giving a man a new suit of clothes or the woman a hat instead of her flaming kerchief which covers her head. Emma Goldman wore an American hat on a Russian head for twenty years, and the other day sailed back home against her will, still wearing an American hat over her unaltered foreign head. To be an American is to submit to the laws enacted by the majority. To be an anarchist and a fool is to violate the constituted laws of the land and to boast that theaws should be abolishe because such criminals as they will not obey them. We must use the knife in cutting out cancerous growths which appear from time to time on the body politic. Uncle Sam is proving himself a capable surgeon during these days. Too long he neglected his duty in this matter. Even now too much cocaine is used in the process. Nothing will save the life of this free republic if these foreign leeches are not cut and cast out. No maudlin sentiment about this being a land which welcomes all men and women to its hospitable shores must blind us to the fact that these law-defying, God-denying, man-defiling, vicious vagrants have come to our shores to destroy the only country which has ever held out hope to aspiring men to seek it as a refuge from tyrants, and help make it a land for the free and the good. Marriage in Present Form a Failure; Woman Should Head the Family. By MARIA VERONE, French Woman Lawyer and Suffragist. Marriage in its present form is a failure. It no longer corresponds to the demands of modern life. It tries to bind the twentieth century people by the rules and conventions of hundreds of years ago. Marriage today is no longer any guarantee for women. Divorce is obtained so easily that a woman does not feel because she marries she is free from care. As marriage is no longer a guarantee for women, its social role disappears. It becomes, on the contrary, harmful, for the survival of the old marriage ideal prevents women from living their own lives, while at the same time it offers them no security. Marriage today is little else than successive polygamy. It is useless to try to turn back the tide. Our entire development is toward greater liberty. We must evolve a new type of union, a union in which woman is the main factor, the stable element. It is she who must have the home, the authority, control of finances. She alone must have the right to her children. All the necessary legal guarantees must be given unions of this type. At present, a divorced woman is far from having the same position, materially and morally, that she had as the wife of the man from whom she is divorced. Modern society must change marriage so that woman's position remains unaffected by the presence of the man. In this way the home will recover its stability, society its equilibrium, and general morality will benefit.

Take oil of pennyroyal, pour some into a saucer, steep it in small pieces of new cotton or wadding, and place where required.

The Reese brothers closed their show several months ago on account of the illness of Mr. Arthur Reese and the sudden death of a loving little member of their company, Miss Pearl Blue, whom several Denver friends remember having met here as Mrs. Lizzie Reese's guest. Miss Blue served five years as a piano player with Reese Bros., traveling all through the Northwest and as far as Colorado and through Canada. Mr. Arthur Reese leaves to mourn his loss his twin brother, Ollie, a loving wife and mother and sister in New York, and sister-in-law and a host of friends. JOSEPH D. D.

Mr. Rivers will be absent about one month, but The Colorado Statesman will be here as usual. Y. M. C. A. NOTES. The union public meeting of the Y. M. and the Y. W. last Sunday afternoon at Shorter church was a distinct success. Although the membership of the Y. M. is more than three times that of the Y. W., the women were far in the majority. Of this the men are heartily ashamed and will reverse the score the next time. Dr. and Mrs. Ward were at their best as speakers and the audience was greatly delighted to see and hear them again. The meeting tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon will be a memorial one, patriotic in its nature, and will be held at Scott M. E. church at 3:30 o'clock. The meeting will be open to the public. The regular monthly meeting of the committee of management will be held next Wednesday evening, June 2nd, at 8 o'clock. This will doubtless be the last meeting until the first Wednesday in September, as the committee does not generally meet during the months of July and August. Everything is in readiness for the great annual outing and track meet of the Y. M. and the Y. W. at Rocky Mountain Lake Park next Monday, May 31st. This promises to be the greatest of the many pleasant meets held by these two organizations. Never were the committees in better working shape to handle the affair than they are this year. The splendid program of events are as follows: For Girls: Fifty-yard dash, high jump, baseball throw, volley ball, tennis. For Boys: Fifty-yard dashCCwo,b For Boys: Juniors—Fifty-yard dash Seniors—100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, 880-yard run, 2-mile marathon, high jump and broad jump.

Church Monday evening, and many of their former friends were present to wish them well. They left for Los Angeles last Tuesday morning. Who Who and What What Weekly brieflet by WESTERN PUBLICITY BUREAU Advertising, in the modern general acceptance of the word, is publicity—a means of causing it to be known what service each of us can render, or what wants we can satisfy. It is the art of impressing on the public any given matter or subject. The Western Publicity Bureau began operating in Denver less than a month ago. During that short space of time this live, young business enterprise has placed more than $500 in advertising of all kinds in newspapers of the race. Up to the present most of the contracts have gone to out-of-town publications. The Western Publicity Bureau is an advertising agency, doing a general advertising business, and is, perhaps, the only organization of its kind owned and operated by race men in all the West. The mediums employed in general advertising are newspapers and magazines, catalogues, circulars, etc.; in street cars, posters, billboards, signs, etc. But this organization does not stop here. The Western Publicity Bureau was formed to give favorable advertising to any worthy individual, organization, article or thing. It is prepared to "boost," to make favorable sentiment. It plans advertising campaigns for the merchant, or will handle propaganda work for any worthy organization or society. so The Western Publicity Bureau makes a speciality of preparing writeups, cards, notices, etc., of all kinds for newspapers. The office of the bureau is at 25 Good Block and the telephone number is Main 5595. WEEDS B mayor the past week was designated as CLEAN-UP-WEEK for all of Denver in order that our city might present her usual neat and beautiful appearance when the tourists and strangers from all parts of the country begin to arrive for the summer. In response to the mayor's call we have observed on every hand in every part of the city a determined effort by many to make the home WHEN OMAHA CAMETODENVER PROF.

Many are rooting up the ever persistent weeds that mar the lawns; some are planting the home gardens; the women are interested mostly in putting out flowers of all descriptions and we see many newly painted homes in all sections of the city. But the most annoying and unsightly nuisance is the common weed, known as the dandelion. This past week might have been appropriately styled "THE DANDELOIN DRIVE," for if ever a drive was needed in Denver surely a drive to put this pestiferous weed out of business was in order. Weeds, weeds, weeds everywhere and this Mr. Dandelion is the most numerous of them all. So, if we are to rid our city of this most unwelcome and unsightly pest we must keep on digging. But, speaking of weeds, we not only have the garden weed and the lawn weed, but the social weed also. This social weed of ours is pretty much on the order of the garden weed or the dandelion. It bobs up in the most conspicuous places over night, thrives on practically nothing and produces nothing but a lot of trouble. We have these social weeds in our churches, lodges and almost every organization. They are alike wherever you find them. They serve no purpose whatever, but merely bloom and scatter their seed of destruction. It keeps the good citizen, like the good housekeeper, busy rooting up this worthless weed out of society. Sometimes they are so deeply rooted and entwined among the good grass that they are very hard to get at without taking much of the good with them. Again we sometimes are only able to pull out part of the root and leave the other part to come up again. Just as it is with the lawn or the garden, infested with weeds because of neglect upon our part, so it is with society. If we neglect our moral duty as citizens we can but expect a full crop of social weeds that will ultimately kill out the beautiful grass and flowers and result in a barren and decayed city. ON WEDNESDAY evening, at 5 o'clock, the Omaha Boosters of the Chamber of Commerce of Omaha blew into Denver, headed by Prof. Dan Desduns famous band of Omaha, and paraded up Sixteenth street from the depot. When that Negro band marched into Sixteenth street, followed by the Omaha Boosters, the people in the stores and the storekeepers rushed to the sidewalk to see and hear that wonderful band that was playing such thrilling music as they had never heard before in Denver. The pedestrians on the street, homeward bound from their work, and the shoppers forgot all about home and dinner and stopped. Some followed along up the street to get a little more of that music. Many expressions of surprise and satisfaction were heard all along the line of march. On the corner of Sixteenth and Curtis streets, the busiest corner in the city, quite a large crowd jammed and blocked the sidewalks, and some young girl, in giving expression to her delight, remarked, "Oh, ain't nature grand?" The Omaha Boosters are homeward bound from their tour of the West, and if they made the same impression in every city and town that they visited that they made in Denver by this great Negro band, Omaha is certainly well advertised. Has it ever occurred to you, Mr. Citizen, that you are personally responsible for the welfare of the boys in your community. Do you know that the Boy Scout movement of America is perhaps the biggest movement toward the development of strong, sturdy manhood and good citizenship in this country today. What have you done and what are you willing to do for this wonderful movement? S H O W the Boys Boy-Scout Week, which is the first week in June, that you are with them heart and soul; that you are willing to join with them in making the Boy Scouts of Colorado the standard for other great communities to follow. So you will be expected to join with us at Central Baptist Church on May 30th, at 3 p. m., and again on June 2nd at Scott's M. E. Church and acquaint yourself with the work of the Colored Boy Scouts of Denver; then we know you will be a booster for the Denver Boy Scouts. S. E. CARY, Chairman Publicity Committee.

The climax of the Omaha Boosters' visit came at 7:30 p. m. Wednesday at the civic center ampitheater when Prof. Dan Desduns and his band gave an open-air concert, which was heard by 10,000 Denverites of all races, young and old. Unfortunately, it was somewhat chilly for this time of year, but the thousands who were there were made warm, and instead of being chilled were thrilled by the sweet and excellent music of this Negro band of Omaha. Mr. Jeff Smith, the cornet soloist, was encored three times in appreciation of his masterful work with the cornet. Mr. Levy Broomfield, who sang a solo, accompanied by the band, was also encored several times. The band and Professor Desduns were roundly cheered and applauded after each selection. The daily papers mentioned this band as being a jazz band. Yes, it is, and then some. Their classical selections were above the average and have never been surpassed by any band in Denver or that ever came to Denver. Their jazz music is unequalled; they have the tune, the spirit, the swing and everything that spells music. We take off our hats to Omaha and congratulate her upon having such a musical genius and band director as Prof. Dan Desduns. Come again, boys, any old time. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO. Funeral Notices.

Norman OFFICE PHONE CHAMPA 5960 THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY The Etiquette of Weddings SPRING and June bring the loveliest and most appealing of pageants—the white-clad confirmation classes and the wedding processions, both marking great epochs in the lives of women. However one may plan for the latter, whether the wedding is to be simple or elaborate, no detail of it can be considered unimportant; everything about it must be perfectly ordered. Nice distinctions must be made in apparel and in everything else. Next to the bride the most distinguished figure in the wedding procession is the matron or maid of honor. So many of this year's brides have chosen a matron of honor that a preference for matrons appears to have developed, but each bride chooses either a maid or matron to attend her, from among her own relatives or very close friends, or from the relatives of the groom. Having made this choice the next important matter for discussion is the dress which this most honored attendant is to wear; the bride's privilege allows her to signify her wishes and custom assures her that they will be carried out by all her attendants. It is usual for the matron or maid of honor to wear the color that has THE bride, of course, chooses the day and the hour for her wedding. Only two days in the week have been set aside as inappropriate for weddings, and they are Sunday and Friday, and in spite of the old rhyme that libels Saturday as "no day at all," it is as popular as any other. Almost any hour may be chosen, but custom has established the hours from eight until three as correct, and in the Anglican church high noon is favored. There are many evening weddings, notwithstanding these old established hours, and many that are celebrated in the afternoon later than three o'clock. There are too many things to be considered in fixing the hours to make hard and fast rules concerning them. The home wedding is simpler than a church wedding but the rules governing the duties of the brides' parents, and those of her attendants are the same. The rooms of the home, to be used at the wedding are usually cleared of small pieces of furniture and prettily decorated with flowers and foliage, and a home allows the exercise of individual taste in this regard. Greenery is usually massed where the bride and groom are to stand, and when the ceremony is finished the bride and groom turn to face the guests and receive congratulations. If a wedding breakfast is served a table for the bride and groom, their parents and their attendants is set, and others for the guests. Or, the maid or matron of honor and the best man, with all the other attendants may be seated at one table and the bride and groom at another, with their immediate relatives. At a wedding reception the parents of the bride first receive the guests and the parents of the groom may stand with them, or the latter may stand near the bride and groom. The best man and ushers make the presentations to the bride and groom, and the bride's attendants are grouped somewhere near her. Refreshements are served at a wedding reception just as at a formal "at home." The bride cuts the first piece of wedding cake. White boxes, containing pieces of wedding cake and marked in gold or silver letters, with the combined initials of the bride and groom are given to the guests as they leave. When the bride leaves the guests, to dress for her wedding journey, her maid of honor usually goes with her to take care of any commission the bride may have for her, and the best man stays faithfully by the side of the groom. As the bride comes down the stairs she tosses her bouquet to been chosen for the malds, but her dress is made differently in order to make a distinction, and a dignified design is chosen for it. Often the attendant of honor uses the color worn by the malds in the foundation of her gown, velling it with lace or some other diaphanous overdress. Or she may wear the same color in a different material as when the malds wear taffeta and she chooses georgette. But in any case she defers to the judgment of the bride. A beautiful gown for the mald or matron of honor is pictured above. It is made of lace, point d'esprit, with bands of georgette and lace bordering the three flouces that make the skirt. The bodice has the same inserts and a band of narrow ribbon about it in addition. This narrow ribbon reappears below the crushed girdle of georgette, in a sash tied at the left side, and the chances are that it is a repetition of a similar decoration on the maids' gowns. Small half-wreaths of little chiffon roses are enchanting in this gown and they are suspended from the sleeves, at the front of the girdle and at irregular intervals on the flouces. One might look far without finding a loveller dress than this. her maids, and that one whose lucky hands receives it is thereby assured by fate that she will be the next bride. The best man is usually at the station, to be sure that everything has been taken care of, and to see the bridal pair started on their journey. When a bride decides to be married in her traveling costume she has only one attendant—a maid or matron of honor. She usually wears a corsage bouquet and carries a prayer book, but her attendant may carry flowers. For a second marriage the bride chooses a beautiful afternoon frock and a charming hat, or is married in a tailored suit or frock. She wears a corsage bouquet and has one attendant and may choose to carry a prayer book. When a widower marries he does not give a farewell "bachelor dinner," but otherwise his procedure is the same as for his first wedding. Ushers may serve at the wedding of a widow, and she may have a wedding breakfast or lunch or reception, as she chooses. Julia Bottomly Corsets, the real foundation of style and of grace, are particularly interesting this season. The uncorseted figure is not fashionable and affected by only a small percentage of the smart women of Paris. But corsets that give an easy, graceful, supple appearance are decidedly in vogue. This means that corsets of tricot are the proper thing—the smartest models are cut long over the hip—and short above the waistline and are lightly boned if boned at all. One new model recently seen has only the front steels and the small bones at the lacings in the back. This is an American corset and adequately fits the figure requirements of the young American woman. Contrast Colors Vogue. White garments frequently have touches of pink flowers with green foliage. With the fad for lavender lingeries growing, lavender embroidery is seen also in pink and blue garments. Gowns of pink plisse crepe, for example, have both blue and lavender silk stitches decorating them, very artistically, it must be admitted. And lavender garments themselves are relieved with plenty of pink handwork, some in quite a rose tone --- THE WONDERFUL ART OF HAIR GROWING A. Complete Course by Mail or Personal Instruction.
