LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY DEDICATION OF PHYLLIS WHEATLEY CENTER CHEYENNE, WYO. NEWS DEDICATION OF PHYLLIS WHEATLEY CENTER ATTENDED BY MANY PROMINENT COLORED CITIZENS— ELABORATE AND INTERESTING PROGRAM. VOL. XXVI. THE Phyllis Wheatly Center of the Colored Y. W. C. A. was formally opened to the public on last Thursday evening, beginning a three days' program and dedication exercises. Over 700 persons visited the opening of the home, located at 2460 Welton street, during the three days' opening. The home contains fourteen rooms and can accommodate about twenty girls. Board and rooms are afforded at reasonable rates. Miss Anna C. McClintock, president of the Y. W. C. A. of Denver, was present at the opening and gave an address; also Miss Amy Bruce of the West Central Field. Their remarks were encouraging and instructive. Miss Davis, secretary of the Colored Home, spoke upon the activities of the home and explained in an able manner the real object of the Phyllis Wheatley Center. Friday night's program by men was presided over by Mr. Bell, who brought greetings and praise from the Y. M. C. A. Music was furnished by the men. Mr. L. H. Lightner gave an interesting talk from a business standpoint. Saturday evening's program was conducted by Mrs. Kate White Harris, who instructed the girls in their work. Each folk dance and relay races, Indian club drill had a special meaning and produced a better physical condition. The Blue Triangle was carried out by the high school girls, who gave yells at the close of the program. The meaning of the Blue Triangle, as explained by the secretary, Miss Davis, is a development in mind, body and spirit. Sunday's program was especially impressive. An original poem dedicated to the Phyllis Wheatley Center by Miss Azalia E. Martin was of an exceptional nature. Music by the Y. W. C. A. quartette and violin solo by Mr. Geo. Morrison were very good, indeed, and highly applauded. Remarks: "Duty," by Rev. W. H. Thomas; "Sacrifice," by Mr. C. M. White. The dedication by Rev. S. H. Stripling was very impressive and forceful, emphasizing dedication meaning to give, sacrifice, service; and in presenting the keys showed that keys meant authority; without authority and responsibility the work would be nothing. The secretary accepted the keys so presented with simplicity and modesty, and in doing so rededicated her life to the service of God and the community. Mine, Lillian H. Jones then closed the program by singing "Just for Today." Mention was made of a gift of $100 by Dorcas Society of Shorter A. M. E. church, composed of little girls from 2 to 9 years of age. A very high tribute was paid to the memory of Mrs. Jennie Hicks LeNoir, who organized the first Y. W. C. A. quartette, and through its work secured the first fund for a permanent home. The committee and management wishes to thank all who took part on this program and helped to make this opening a success; also the house committee, who, through untiring effort, made it possible for the home to look as beautiful as it does.

She has had special training for her work at the national headquarters in New York City before coming to Denver to take charge of the work here. We welcome Miss Davis to our city and hope for her a bright future. WHAT NEGROES HAVE DONE Few persons realize what some members of the colored race have accomplished in America in many different lines. Here are some of them: Mrs. Sarah J. Walker, who died recently, left an estate of approximately $1,000,000. She bequeathed $100,000 to various charities and was the owner of a home estimated to have cost $250,000 at Irvington on the Hudson, New York. She accumulated her money through a beauty culture business and selling preparations of that kind. Among farmers there are hundreds of successful Negroes. Newton Smith, near Shreveport, La., is reported to own 1,000 acres of valuable land, and to be worth over $200,000. In 1917 he sold 286 bales of cotton which, together with the cottonseed sold, netted him $50,000. The Mutual Savings Bank of Portsmouth, Va., was awarded first place among all of the banks of the country by the United States Treasury Department at the close of the third Liberty loan. This Negro bank was given a quota of $5,700 to raise, but turned in a total of over $100,000. This bank was assigned $12,500 as its share of the fourth loan, but raised $100,000. Frances Grant of Cambridge, Mass., led her class at Radcliffe College, James Scott, colored, attained the highest rank among the men students of the University of Kansas. Mrs. Miriam Sims Jackson had the highest standing among 100 competitors in a civil service examination at Atlanta, Ga., where only three colored people were entered. Out of 1,000 cadets that completed the course of training in the reserve officers' training camp at Harvard University, the one Negro in the camp, Richard Sandburry, was one among the 12 recommended for immediate commission. Records in North Carolina show that colored people pledged to buy war savings stamps far more in keeping with their ability than did white people. The Carnegie hero commission has made over 42 awards to colored persons. Samuel Coleridge-Taylor, one of the best known of modern composers, was a Negro. William Stanley Braithwaite, one of the best known poetry critics of the present day, and the editor of numerous books, is a Negro. It probably should not be forgotten that the grandmother of Alexander Dumas, the great French novelist, was a Negro woman.—Nebraska Farmer. ABLE PEOPLE'S PA ADC THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, S CHEYENNE, WYO. NEWS DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 12, 1920 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 12, 1920 A large and intelligent audience attended the meeting of the Cheyenne Civic League of Colored People on Thursday evening, June 3rd. Mrs. H. C. Jefferson addressed the league and citizens. Mrs. Jefferson's subject was "Making the Most of Life." In part, she said: "Duty to self: Grasp every opportunity and make the most of it. It is our duty to prepare ourselves to meet the demands of life by educational and self-development. Our physical duty to keep the body well; abstain from things which tend to destroy; give back to God a well-cared-for body. Many gaps in life are open and the world is calling for men and women to fill them. The question arises: Are we preparing ourselves to meet the demands? Or are we filling these gaps as God would have us? Or are we making a failure in the onset? These thoughts should be given careful consideration and we should do our best. Our duty to God: Since God attended this life with so much grandeur, it is our duty to render service to Him for it. In this day of intelligence, when we can see God in everything, it seems everybody should be a Christian. God has done so much for us. What have we done for Him? How much do we owe Him? And how much have we paid for the many kindnesses received from Him? I fear the young people are not doing what they can for the cause of morality and religion; and so much of the future depends upon them going forward with God. Forgetting God and the church means destruction. Then get in the way and be used to His honor and glory. Duty to others: If you see a brother weak—help him. None of us are too small, too weak or too feeble to be a service. Everybody can't be a leader, for leaders are born. Everybody can't be a poet, a statesman or a genius along certain lines; but everyone can possess that bigness of soul, that spirit of helpfulness and charity that characterizes every well spent life. If we cannot speak well of our neighbor speak not at all. Our duty to others is to be free from gossip and scandal-bearing. If I do the best I can it not only helps me, but it helps the whole race to advance. Our duty to serve the present age and thereby glorify God and His kingdom. Duty to country: Our duty to show our patriotism in every way possible. The old flag has been made to blush with shame by those in authority, but God will take care of conditions. Do not make unpatriotic remarks, even though we so often feel like it. We have no black marks of disloyalty on the pages of any history against us, and let us keep our records clean. Then, in the end, we can look back over a life well spent and full of deeds of goodness and a reward of peace and contentment will be ours in the end." Mrs. Susannah Pierson was agreeably surprised on her birthday, June 3rd, by a party of intimate friends. Mrs. Lena Ward was a visitor in our city last week. Mrs. Hopkins, mother of Mrs. Ward, departed with Mrs. Ward for Sterling, Colo.

All that is required is a brief, concise statement of not more than 500 words, telling how such agent has succeeded in the matter of handling the Madam C. J. Walker preparations. Contest: open from June 1st to July 25th, inclusive. Address all manuscripts to Contest Editor, Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, 640 North West Street, Indianapolis, Ind. WILL UNVEIL MEMORIAL TO MME. WALKER. On Sunday, June 3th, an interesting ceremony will attend the unveiling of a bronze bas-relief of the late Mme. C. J. Walker, which is placed over the drinking fountain in the auditorium corridor of the Y. W. C. A. building at 179 West 137th street, New York City, the tablet and fountain being a memorial placed by the Mme. C. J. Walker's Agents' Association in memory of their former teacher and employer. The bas-relief is the work of Lorenzo Harris, the talented young Negro artist and sculptor. Mr. Harris had never seen Mme. Walker in life and so was compelled to use prints and photographs as his model. He has succeeded to a remarkable degree in securing a lifelike and striking reproduction of Mme. Walker's features as familiarized to thousands of newspaper readers through the advertising matter used by the company. It is a strong and virile example of the young artist's ability and will serve as a fitting memorial to the most successful business woman the case has to this time produced. Several other commissions are being executed by Hr. Harris, one of them being from "The Association," that body of young and old Harlem men who make their headquarters at Shipp's Seventh avenue place of business. The commission calls for the designing and modeling of a bronze tablet in honor of Corporal William M. McKay, a former member of the Association, who made the supreme sacrifice on the battlefields of France while a member of the Old 15th New York Regiment. This tablet is to be unveiled at the annual banquet—New York Age.

WOMAN'S CLUB HOLDS ITS 25TH ANNIVERSARY. Tuskegee Institute, Ala.—The Tuskegee Woman's Club celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary on May 21st. Twenty-five years ago thirteen women teachers organized themselves for intellectual, social and moral development. They had a definite object in view, not only for their own development, but the general welfare of the community in which they had come to live. Their work has been carried on largely through departments, namely: mothers' meetings, night schools in town and country, sewing classes, reading circles, W. C. T. U. work, conditions of railroad stations and trains, and general work for women and children. Their mothers' meetings have consisted largely of women living in the country districts. This meeting began with about sixty women, and during the twenty-five years which the club has worked, these meetings have grown from sixty to at least one thousand women. NO.35 They closed their twenty-five years of work last night with the annual reception, to which the entire community, men and women, was invited. The room was beautifully decorated with rambling roses, the music was appropriate, and the refreshments were just what they should be. Mrs. Booker T. Washington, who has held the office of president for the last twenty-five years, except one year, presided and gave an interesting history of the club from its beginning. She spoke of the early struggles of the club, of the jail work of the county, of the work of the poorhouse, and various other lines of activities which the club has been undertaking. At the close of the program Principal R. R. Moton, Vice Principal Warren Logan, Chaplain John W. Whittaker, head of the academic department, E. C. Roberts, and H. E. Thomas were called on to speak. The club has invited as its guests July 12th to 16th, the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. Prominent women from all over the country will be present. The national president, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, is expected to arrive at the headquarters of the Tuskegee Woman's Club early in July. SOUTHERN WHITE MEN TALK ABOUT NEW NEGRO SOUTHERN WHITE MEN TALK ABOUT NEW NEGRO Hampton, Va.—Bishop Theodore D. Bratton, Jackson, Miss., president of the Southern Sociological Congress, in bringing to a close the Race Relations Section of the recent Washington meeting, said: "Express your desires, your hopes, and your principles unobserved, strongly, but patiently and courteously. You can strengthen the hands of white friends, if you express your ideas without any venom. Do not tie the hands of your friends by being intemperate. There never were so many white people who are so interested in you." Prof. Robert T. Kerlin of the Virginia Military Institute, Lexington, Va., in his address on "The Negroe's Reaction to the World War," said: "A new type of colored man has come upon the stage; the Negro, who is struggling for manhood rights, for political economic and social freedom, for all that democracy means to the most favored. This Negro has not yet found in the white race an interpreter. He is too recent, too alarming. We have made no provision in our social system for this new man in the old color." President Dudley of the Agricultural and Technical College, Greensboro, N.C., declared that the way to get rid of the viscious criminal is to do away with lynchings; to exploit through the newspapers of the country the good news concerning colored people; to have respectable, competent Negroes serve on juries before which colored prisoners are being tried; and to close dens of idleness and vice. Dr. James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton Institute, declared that goodwill between the races should be preached. Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, declared that American Negroes have not lost faith in all white people. "We want white people everywhere," he said, "to put us down as American citizens. Negroes have always been loyal to their Nation, their State, and their community." Dr. Moton pointed out clearly that when the Negro fights segregation, he knows that not once in ten times is the promise of equal accommodation fully carried out. Dr. Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, Washington, D. C., referred to the contribution which had been made by Negro citizens to the field of serious scientific research and achievement. Monroe N. Work of Tuskegee Institute, editor of the "Negro Year Book," in his address on "The American Negro in Property Owning," declared that "Negroes have not generally acquired property for speculative purposes but in order to establish homes."

The first three-day trip will be conducted July 2-4 to Devil's Thumb and Jasper lake. The club is starting its activities three weeks earlier than usual at the request of out-of-state members, who already are beginning to arrive in Boulder. Grand valley fruit growers have learned sad but nevertheless true news about the 1920 fruit crop. It was believed that the apples had escaped damage from the winter cold, and all varieties but one did escape, but the popular Winesap suffered almost complete extinction in that valley, it is declared, so far as the 1920 crop is concerned. The winter cold damaged the buds so that they had no vitality, and although they bloomed as usual the blooms fell off and the trees will be bare of fruit. Ranchmen along Muddy creek in Grand county have bought the telephone lines of the Mountain Stutes Telephone and Telegraph Company in that district and have organized the Muddy Creek Telephone Association. They will extend the lines from Kremmling, twenty-three miles north, to the Martin postoffice at Whitley's peak. Fifteen phones will be connected with the new lines. A. Power, a farmer of Youghal, was drowned in the Yampa river while wading to the stake fastening of the boat used for a crossing. The river is higher than usual and the boat mooring is a considerable distance from the shore. It is thought the swift current in the new channel swept Mr. Power off his feet. Carlos M. Cole, superintendent of Denver's public schools since 1915 died at St. Luke's hospital in that city. His death, which came unexpectedly, was due to influenza, his attending physicians declared, contracted while he was in a weakened condition following an operation for appendicitis. The proposed new highway over Berthoud Pass, between Empire and Frazier, Colo., a distance of twenty-seven miles, will cost about $200,000, according to the survey made by crews working under the direction of A. E. Palen, senior highway engineer of the United States Bureau of Public Roads. The whole town of Fosston, on the branch line of the Union Pacific railroad to Briggsdale, was totally destroyed by fire. The town consists of one large building, which includes the postoffice, public hall, church, telephone exchange and general store. The loss is estimated at $10,000. The Senate has doubled the appropriation for the Rocky Mountain National park, according to dispatches from Washington. Senator Philipps' amendment increasing the appropriation from $20,000 to $40,000 was adopted by the Senate. James F. Creel, father of Charles A. Creel of Arriba, is dead at the age of 88 years. Creel was born in Virginia and came to Colorado nearly forty years ago. He made his residence in the northern part of Lincoln county. The state school fund was enriched by $149,480 as the result of the June sale of state school land. The State Board of Land Commissioners sold 5,840 acres for that sum. The average price per acre, $25.60, is the highest obtained by the board for months. Considerable rivalry developed in the bidding for certain parcels of land. The highest price was realized for a tract of irrigated land in Weld county. For this the board obtained $170 an acre. A ten-pound son was born to Mayor and Mrs. F. W. Stover at their home in Fort Collins. In addition to being born the son of the mayor of Fort Collins, the new arrival has been named William Charles—William for his paternal grandfather, a pioneer and the first president of the Poudre Valley Bank of that city, and Charles for his maternal grandfather, Congressman Charles B. Timberlake. Building permits for the first five months of 1920 represent $2,211,830 more than for the same period of time a year ago, according to the monthly report issued by Frank M. Ladd, city building inspector of Denver. A concerted fight against the prairie dog will be necessary to stampout that form of pest in Grand valley, say those in touch with the situation. The menace has been growing there because little or no effort has been made to stamp out the pests heretofore, but a campaign against them will be waged this summer. In a petition presented to the city council the Colorado Springs & Interurban Railroad Company will renew the offer made about two years ago to sell the entire system and accept payment in city bonds.

Kelly, Horseshoer William Hughes, Chief Nurse Meta C. Cook, National Commander Franklin D'Ollier. National Commander Franklin D'Ollier, national chaplain Francis A. Kelly and Commander Milton J. Foreman of the Illinois department of the American Legion recently visited the United States Public Health Service hospital No. 30, Chicago, Ill., where 600 wounded and disabled soldiers and sailors are patients. The legion officers were conducted on a tour of the ward after which Commander D'Ollier and Father Kelly addressed a number of the wounded in the recreation hall. Our first duty is to you men and your comrades. You can always bank on that." Father Kelly, wearer of the D. S. C. for heroism in action on the British front with the Twenty-seventh New York division, made a vigorous reply to the foes of the ex-service organization who have charged the American Legion is a militaristic body. "I have heard it said," declared Father Kelly, "that the aim of the American Legion is to impose upon the United States a government of the soldiers, by the soldiers and for the "Service," said the national commander, "is the sole aim of the American Legion—service to our country and our comrades. Our first and foremost duty always has been and will be to the disabled, those who gave their health and strength in battle and the dependents of those who died while with the forces. "The American Legion put through congress the bill that raised the disabled men's base pay from $20 to $80 a month. It has aided in the adjustment of thousands of compensation, allowance, back pay and insurance claims. It is working to remedy the vocational training situation. TRAINING FOR DISABLED MEN Gerald J. Murphy Named Vocational Officer to Aid in Working Out Big Problem. A system of co-operation with the federal board of vocational training by which it is hoped to obtain vocational training for all eligible disabled men at government expense with all possible speed, has been inaugurated by the American Legion. It is estimated that about 120,000 crippled veterans are entitled to by which it is hoped to obtain vocational training for all eligible disabled men at government expense with all possible speed, has been inaugurated by the American Legion. It is estimated that about 120,000 crippled veterans are entitled to training under the provisions of the vocational rehabilitation act, but the federal board, after functioning for 20 months, has placed in training only about 26,000 of these. Officials of the board, in accepting the plan put forth by the legion, declare the combination of effort will solve some of the body's most difficult problems. The arrangement is expected to retrieve a situation which has brought the legion and the board into repeated controversies in the past and has provoked much criticism of the board, together with a congressional investigation of its alleged dereliction of duty and failure to fulfill the country's pledged obligations to the men who gave their health and strength in battle. The legion's proposal calls for the formation of an organization in each state which will seek out the disabled men in every community, examine their cases and present them to the proper officials of the board for admission to training. A department vocational officer will be appointed in each state and attached to state headquarters of the legion. A vocational officer also will be chosen in each of the more than 9,000 posts of the legion throughout the country, and conferences of all post officers will be held within the state during the next two months to insure uniform procedure. The whole project will be under the direction of the national vocational officer at American Legion headquarters in Indianapolis. Gerald J. Murphy of Rutland, Vt., has been named national vocational officer by National Commander Franklin D'Olier. "The legion's action in this matter was taken not through choice but a sense of duty," said Lemuel Bolles, national adjutant and chairman of the special legion committee of three which investigated the vocational situation, recommended and devised the program of co-operative effort with the board. "The American Legion's excuse AMERICA LEGID MEN AT CHICAGO HOSPITAL McGee, National Chaplain Francis H. Chief Nurse Meta C. Cook, National Our first duty is to you men and your comrades.

"I have heard it said," declared Father Kelly, "that the aim of the American Legion is to impose upon the United States a government of the soldiers, by the soldiers and for the soldiers. The American Legion is a million miles away from any such idea as that. We crossed the sea to put an end to such forms of government and certainly we do not intend or strive or will not tolerate the setting up at home of what we went to war to destroy abroad. "The American Legion stands solely and simply for the things that make for a better Americanism. We call ourselves Americans. We call ourselves a legion. We are both, and we unite the two in an organization which shall stand for all that is best in our national life for our country and for the flag." for existence may be summed up in one word—service; service to our country and our comrades. Disabled men and the dependents of those who died always come first. "I regard the agreement we have effected with the F. B. V. A. one of the most important steps we have taken in that direction. "The vocational situation has been generally unsatisfactory the country over, though the evils of faulty administrative methods and lack of foresight have been more pronounced in some sections than in others—particularly so in the densely populated districts of the East. Disabled men have not had what they are clearly entitled to have from the government, and the result is they have become discouraged and their confidence in the board has been seriously impaired. "The American Legion cannot restore that confidence. The board must do it. The legion only can help, and that it means to do. The work would be felicitated materially if disabled men throughout the country would without further formality, get in touch with the nearest local post of the American Legion. That will start the wheels moving." ACTIVITY IN WEST VIRGINIA Posts of State, According to Department Adjutant's Bulletin, Are Busy Doing Things. A recent bulletin issued by Louis A. Carr, department adjutant for the American Legion of West Virginia, reports activities of the various legion posts in that state as follows: Post No. 44 of Phillippi, W. Va., recently presented a minstrel show and realized a substantial sum for the territory. The post will conduct a memorial service. George D. Jackson post No. 56 of Kingwood, W. Va., is organizing a women's auxiliary and making arrangements for a permanent post club rooms. Potomac post of Shepherdstown probably has come nearer than any other post in the state to enrolling every returned sailor, soldier or marine in its community. From the territory from which it draws its members the post claims to have gathered in every eligible person except five. Clarksburg, Elkins and Parkersburg posts recently contracted with the management of the Boston-Detroit baseball teams for games in their respective cities. Wheeling post No. 1 recently staged a "Pershing" celebration from which the organization gained more than 600 new members. For Benefit of Legion The Rotary club of Newcastle, Pa. repeated its minstrel show the last of April for the benefit of the post of the American Legion. G. O. P. ADOPT 1920 PLATFORM G. O. P. ADOPT 1920 PLATFORM THE PLATFORM WITH ITS VARIOUS COMPROMISES WENT THROUGH QUICKLY. KILL MINORITY PLANK MANY CHANGES NOTED IN LINE- UP AT CHICAGO CONVENTION THIS YEAR. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Chicago, June 11.—The Grand Old Party adopted its 1920 platform with a viva voce vote that made the Coliseum ring. The platform with its various compromises on the sentiment of several groups representing the industrial question and economic issues went through without a bitch worth the name. Chicago's city hall and Wisconsin fought to cause a diversion after Senator Watson of Indiana had finished barritoning the resolutions. Delegate Gross of Wisconsin arose with a minority report. The Badger state was ready to conform—hardly a convention passes without a minority plank of some sort which is invariably tossed out with the "culls." Delegates and gallery "razzed" Gross as he started to read, but after energetic use of the gavel by Chairman Lodge, quiet was restored. The minority plank had to do, among other things, with the League, the treaty, resumption of peace and kindred things. It sounded like a fragment from a LaFollette speech. One idea it advocated was "gradual acquisition and government ownership of the stock yards." Storms of "Noes" followed this. The hall was in an uprout. Gross asked for a toll call on his material, but it required the seconding of two other states to put this over. No other states responded and the minority substitute was wiped out by a viva voce vote that showed all lungs in excellent working order. Delegate Oscar de Priest, from the First Illinois district, who, as atderman, was one of Mayor Thompson's floor leaders in the city council, got up with a plank in his hands. It had to do with rigid enforcement of the fourteenth amendment in southern states. Up jumped Senator Sherman, who an hour before had supplanted Mayor Thompson as new national committee-man. "Under the rules," he said, "this should be referred to the resolutions committee." "The point is sustained," held Chairman Lodge, which caused another gale of laughter, inasmuch as the resolutions committee is through with its duties. Senator Lodge cracked down the gavel and ordered the roll of states for the names of the next national committeemen. Many an old-timer fell out by the way as the call progressed. John King dropped out as committeeman from Connecticut. The delegates and galleries made the welkin ring when Senator Sherman was announced as committeeman from Illinois, supplanting Mayor Thompson. Murray Crane, colonel of the Old Guard, who tied up the platform committee after it thought its original compromise on the League of Nations was ready for the O. K. of "reservationists" and "irreconcilables" of all shades, walked the plank as committeeman from Massachusetts. John W. Weeks takes his place. Bolsheviki Murder Japs. Honolulu.—The Japanese war office has announced that, according to Russian witnesses, several hundred Japanese, including women and children, were murdered at Nikolaevsk, Siberia, by Bolshevists, and that no Japanese had been alive in the town, according to Tokio cable advices to Nippl Jijl, a Japanese language newspaper. To Fix Blame in Bergdoll Case. Washington.—Evidence taken by the inspector general of the army in connection with the escape of Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, wealthy draft evader, will be submitted to the Department of Justice for determination whether it justifies prosecution of civilians involved in the escape. Escape in Night Clothes. Red Wing, Minn.—One hundred and fifty young women students and commencement week visitors escaped in night attire when fire destroyed the Lutheran Ladies' Seminary here, with a loss estimated by school authorities at $250,000. Hunger Is Greatest Terror. London. Fifty per cent of the people of soviet Russia are hungry, although everybody is getting a certain allowance of food, declared Benjamin Turner, in describing conditions in that country as he had observed them. Mr. Turner, with another delegate, Thomas Shaw, member of the House of Commons, returned to England recently. "There is no terror in Russia except hunger, and that is a very real terror in the cities," said Mr. Turner. © AD&C.

Blood pressure is the pressure of the blood against the walls of the large arteries. It is determined by the force of the heart and the resistance in the small blood vessels. These latter either expand or contract according to conditions. This action is influenced by various factors, namely, excitement, nervousness, polishes in the system and hardening of the arteries.

The State Supreme Court of Colorado has finally settled all doubts and quibbles in regard to the constitutionality of the civil rights statute placed upon the statute books of this commonwealth. This decision was awaited with much anxiety by over fifteen thousand Negro citizens of Colorado and twelve million Negro citizens of the United States. All eyes were fixed upon Colorado, and we were ever hopeful that the Supreme Court would construe the law in the right way and as it was intended to be construed by its sponsors. This is a great victory for Colorado and will help in many ways to put Colorado in the front ranks with Massachusetts and many other great states of the Union. We as citizens felt that our Supreme Court would not take a backward step in this advanced age and declare the law unconstitutional, yet there was fear and trembling when we saw that we were being opposed by an ex-justice of the Supreme Court, who presented one of the most scurrilous, biased, prejudiced and insulting briefs that was ever filed in the Supreme Court. This case grew out of the refusal of a Greek shoe-shining stand at Colorado Springs to permit a Negro, Rev. Darius, of that city, to have service. Thereupon Rev. Darius brought suit for damages and at the trial of the case in Colorado Springs the county judge dismissed the suit on demurrer on the ground that a shoe-shining parlor did not come within the meaning of the statute of the state prohibiting discriminations in public places because of race or color, etc. In the decision of the Supreme Court practically all places of public service come within the statute. Now, then, so much for that sweeping decision. Now, these moving picture proprietors had better take notice and be careful who they attempt to herd and hustle up into the "crow's roost" of their theaters or they will find themselves without the law some day and a heavy fine and damages taxed up against them for violation of the law. Again this decision should serve as a healthy reminder to the white Clayton residents that a respectable Negro can and will live wherever he is able to buy a home that pleases and suits him, regardless of whether they like or dislike it, or whether it depreciates or increases the value of property in the neighborhood in which a Negro happens to buy. So why should you worry? We don't. THE CHICAGO CONVENTION. FOR THE PAST TEN DAYS all roads lead to the great city on the lakes —Chicago. Thousands were flocking to the big convention city to see and hear for themselves first hand what the Republicans did. On Tuesday at 11 o'clock, Chairman Will Hays sounded the death knell of the Wilson administration, and in a few pointed and well-chosen words presented Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts as temporary chairman of the convention. Senator Lodge responded with a keynote speech that was read by millions who are anxious to go to the polls in November and vote for the man the convention nominates for President. The country and the people are tired of Wilson and want a change. Never before in the history of the Republican party have there been so many candidates for the nomination. Why? Because they and the country knows that any man whom the Republicans name this year is a sure case winner. The contest among the candidates is keen but friendly. No one political dopester has yet been able to positively declare to the country who the man will be. The surest guess all have received up to date is a DARK HORSE. But perhaps ere we go to press the country will know who the next President of the United States will be. Chairman Hays has declared that there will be no split or bolt this year, and we think he is right. We fail to see wherein a bolt or a split will be justified upon the part of any one, as each candidate surely will receive a square deal at the hands of the convention this year. How France Handles Her Forests-Her Way Just the Opposite of Ours. How France Handles Her Forests-Her Way Just the Opposite of Ours. By WILLIAM B. GREELEY, United States Forester. A lumberjack sergeant of the Twentieth engineers remarked that the lumber business in France seemed to be concerned more with growing trees than cutting them into boards. That in a nutshell is the difference between the timberland owner in France and the timber baron of America. The conception of a forest as land producing crop after crop of wood extends from the intensively managed public forests of France down to the peasant who owns half a hectare of poplars in a swampy bottom. IN HOME A DAY To us in the United States, who are wont to think of forestry as possible only for the nation or state, it is of interest to know that two-thirds of the wonderfully conserved forests of France are owned by private citizens. The technical care of these 16 million acres of private forests does not differ, in essential respects, from that given to the state and communal properties. The lumber manufacturing industry has grown up upon and adapted itself to a system of forest management which permits but small cuttings at any one place in any one year or series of years. Cases are rare when the well being and permanence of the forest are sacrificed to the requirements of a manufacturing enterprise—an exact opposite of the situation so common in the United States where the manufacturer owns the timber and has denuded one forest region after another in order to supply his large, stationary mills to their maximum capacity. While this relation is largely a result rather than a cause of the economic status of private forestry in France, it indicates the industrial adjustments which will become necessary in America as our emphasis shifts from supplying sawmills to growing timber. The situation of France today is a striking warning that the United States can ill-afford the national loss of idle land. Public agencies doubtless must assume the greater part of the immediate task of growing timber on our idle cut-over land. But publicly owned forests cannot do all of it in the United States any more than in France. Our national policy should aim definitely and unequivocally at the practice of forestry by private owners as rapidly as that can be brought about by better methods of taxing timberland, by the co-operation and educational help of state and federal agencies, and by the recognition, on an equitable basis, of the obligations carried by forest ownership. "But, Believe Me, We Are Not as Poor as Most of Our Rich Neighbors." A MOTHER'S LETTER, in New York Telegram. You girls may think you are poor (I'm sorry you can't have those new coats you want, particularly since you've never complained), but you are rich, rich, rich, compared to millionaire Brown's daughter, who was recently married and lives in the next block. She's a sweet girl, too, if she'd ever had anything to bring out what there is in her, but she's always been pampered and now she is pining for this thing and that—always the thing she hasn't or something some one else has done that she hasn't. Girls, I know we're poor, in a sense, but, believe me, we are not as poor as most of our rich neighbors. Think what genuine pleasure any of us feel when we receive an unexpected gift; an unexpected pleasure jaunt, and, ny! what capacity for enjoyment we all possess. There was a time in my life when I rebelled because I knew that I could not do for you children what some of my friends were doing for theirs. I believe we have the best of it now. I firmly believe you will be happier and better women for the fact that the cost has always had to be seriously considered. Love and Fighting Are the Concave and Convex Sides of the Same Thing. By DEAN C. R. BROWN, Yale Divinity School. I have long been a prize fight fan. I have never actually seen a pugilistic encounter. I am free to confess that I have been interested in the sport ever since the days of Sullivan and Kilrain. Whenever there is a big pugilistic encounter I read the account of it the next morning with genuine interest, for I believe the man who denies the natural lure of a spirited conflict, whether between two men or two companies of men or two great armies, is in some manner lacking. The spirit of love and the fighting instinct are the concave and convex sides of the same thing. There is nothing soft or spineless in true Christianity, for Christian wrath is wrath with a moral basis and that is the kind we should exercise. The evils of this world never will be overcome with less than a stiff and aggressive fight and the fighting spirit has its value in that obvious fact. Where red blood courses there is always the instinct to fight well; it is inherent. A good fight therefore interests me. Grave Danger of America Is Its Irresponsible, Undisciplined Youth. By MAJ. GEN. CLARENCE R. EDWARDS, U. S. A. One of the gravest dangers menacing the country today is its irresponsible, undisciplined youth. I believe I have a panacea for it. In fact, I know I have. There must be universal training for citizenship, the object to be the benefit of the individual. Their standard would be one of manhood; the peace standard of the dollar would be eliminated. What are the essential characteristics of a good American citizen? A sound body and a sound mind, an appreciation of the dignity of labor and the happiness of industry; mastery and control of self; appreciation of the benefits of our institutions and our obligations to them, and the point of view of one's fellow man. The army and navy should be made great schools for men and manhood, with the employment of the best elements, with the elimination ef men unfit and methods unsuitable for the training of our youth. 3 THE 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.

PERSPIRATION ROTS LINING Good Economy to Keep Two Pairs and Wear Them on Alternate Days—Thorough Airing on Shoe-Trees Keeps Them Shapely. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) When a pair of dress shoes could be bought for a five-dollar bill most people were not greatly concerned as to how long they would wear. But now nearly everybody is taking better care of his shoes in an endeavor to prolong their usefulness. For those who are not "shoe-wise" the following advice on the care of shoes given by clothing specialists in the United States department of agriculture, may prove helpful. Walk Right to Save Shoes. Careful poise of the body in walking prolongs the life of shoes. A careless, slipshod wear wears shoes unevenly, while an erect carriage tends to keep the soles and heels level. Shoes, even more than most other articles of clothing, need to be alred after wearing in order to prevent the perspiration from rotting the lining. If You Want to Ruin Shoes, Put It is a good plan to keep them on shoe-trees or stuffed with tissue paper, because in this way the wrinkles are forced out and the original shape is preserved. Wetting tends to spoil the appearance of shoes and to shorten their period of service; therefore, overshoes should be worn in bad weather. Wet shoes should be dried slowly and carefully, for heat tends to crack the leather. It is especially important to restore the shape of wet shoes by shoe-trees or paper stuffing. Even with the most careful drying, moisture tends to rot the threads with which a shoe is sewn, and "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." All types of rubber overshoes are now expensive that they should be GIVE CHILDREN MILK FOR NEEDED PROTEIN It is Their Natural Food and the Best We Have. Contains Lime and Other Salts Needed for Strong Bones and Teeth and for Body Regulators—Vitamines Needed. Milk is the natural food for children. It is the best food we have. A quart a day for every child if possible, and a pint without fail, should be the slogan of every household. Milk gives children the body-building protein, one of the materials from which their bodies are made. When children drink milk, these body proteins are changed and become part of their muscles and blood. Children need these because their bodies grow no fast. Milk contains lime and other salts which are needed for strong bones and teeth and for body regulators. Many children who do not have plenty of milk, have soft or deformed bones and poor teeth. Children are so active that they need more fuel food for their size than grown people do. Milk furnishes energy for the growing child. Besides these, milk contains certain substances which are essential to growth. These substances are called vitamines. One is the fat-soluble vitamin, so called because it is soluble in certain fats; this is found in the treated as carefully as the shoes they protect. They should be kept from great heat, and set "right side up with care" to prevent their losing shape. They should also be washed or brushed so that the grit on them may not wear down the surface. It is economy to keep two pairs of shoes in use and wear them on alternate days; the thorough airing on shoe-trees or stuffed with paper keeps them fresher and more shapey so that each pair gives longer service. All shoes should be kept clean and well brushed. Leather shoes may be rubbed with vaseline to keep them soft and also to keep moisture from passing out quickly through the leather. White canvas shoes are usually cleaned with a commercial preparation. If water is used, no more than necessary should be applied on the shoes and they must be cleaned on shoe-trees or stuffed with paper to prevent the canvas from shrinking. If they are badly solled they may be washed with a soap that contains whiting dried, and if necessary treated with a commercial cleaner. All traces of the cleaner should be carefully wiped from the edges of a colored sole; otherwise the sole will have a slovenly appearance. White suede and buckskin shoes are cleaned in much the same general way, but with special cleaners made for the purpose. Chest or Bags Conserve Space. Where conservation of space is not necessary, a small chest for holding shoes may be added to the furnishings of the bedroom; or shoe bags hung on the inside of the closet door are good. Pairs of bags in different colors are very useful for packing shoes when traveling; they keep the shoes from being scratched, prevent them from soiling other articles, and make Them While Wet on Radiate. It possible to sort out a particular pair quickly. Shoe repairing has become such an art that shoes must be of very poor leather, indeed, if they will not stand repairing. Run-down heels spoil the shape of shoes and should be leveled at once. If the shoes are of good leather, well shaped, and well made, it is worth while to have full soles hand sewed on them and new heels put on when the first set wears through. Shoes thus mended will outwear those repaired with ordinary half holes, and also have a much better appearance. Brass nails in the heels make less noise than iron nails in walking. Rubber heels prevent jarring and for some persons they seem to wear longer than leather heels. greatest abundance in the butter fat of milk. Butter is rich in this vitamine. It is also found to some extent in cheese. In milk is found another vitamine, called the water-soluble vitamine, because it is soluble in water. These vitamines are found to some extent in certain other foods, but nowhere are they found in so great an abundance as in milk, according to the United States department of agriculture. All Around the House All Around the House Vinegar can be used as a substitute for brandy in sauce. Suet will keep good for weeks if it is covered with flour. Never use bread which is not thoroughly baked. It is not wholesome. Milk will not burn if, before it is put into the saucepan, the pan is rinsed with cold water. To have only a delicate onion flavor in soups or salads, for example, mince the vegetable fine and rinse in a cheese cloth held under hot running water. Black lace gets rusty if kept in a closed box, but the color can be revived with cold tea, then the stiffness restored with gum arabic dissolved in a little water. The KITCHEN CABINET Work is given man, not only, nor so much, perhaps, because the world nee is it. Men can work, but work makes men. An office is not merely a place for making money; it is a place for making men. A work does not a place for making machinery only; it is a place for making souls, for filling in the working virtues of one's life; for turning out honest, modest and good-natured men.—Henry Drummond. HELPFUL HINTS. Soup making is an art. Too many seasonings destroy the charm and no one should predominate. Vegetables that contain a volatile oil, like onions, should not be overcooked as the fine flavor is driven off by the heat. one should dominate. Vegetables that contain a volatile oil, like onions, should not be overcooked as the fine flavor is driven off by the heat. Soup, like all other food that is served hot, should be served in hot plates, bowls or cups. A soup pot may take a spoonful of peas, a half cupful of tomato, a stalk of celery, an onion or a bit of beef gravy, added to the stock, making a tasty dish or two of soup and adding a real value to the meal. Some cooks add two or three prunes or a dozen raisins to the soup pot an hour before serving. The flavor is especially pleasing. A thin cream soup of any kind may be further enriched by the addition of egg yolk and cream. Beat the egg, add the cream and pour a little of the hot soup into the mixture before mixing the two. A Norwegian Fried Cake.—Beat two eggs until light, add a tablespoonful of sugar and three tablespoonfuls of cream. Add one and three-fourths cupfuls of pastry flour to make a dough to roll. Roll out very thin and cut in diamond shapes with two slashes in the center of each. Fry in deep fat, drain and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Fish Pudding.—Cook one cupful of rice in boiling salted water until tender. Cook a two-pound pickerel, bass or other fresh water fish until tender in boiling salted water. Remove the skin and bones from the cooked fish and flake it. Combine the rice and cooked fish, add two eggs well beaten, one cupful of milk and one cupful of the fish stock. Season and arrange in layers in a buttered dish with bits of butter in between the layers. Bake one-half hour and serve hot with drawn butter sauce. Lamb Cutlets or Chops With New Potatoes.—Trim the chops neatly and broil over a clear bright fire or under gas. Sensor well with pepper and salt and dish them in a circle on a chop plate with small even-sized new potatoe; cooked as follows: Take a pound or two of the potatoes and cook them in their skins for 15 minutes, then peel them and cook another 15 minutes in a quarter of a cupful of well salted butter; toss them to cover with butter and just before serving sprinkle well with finely chopped parsley. There are leaders in all stations. In all trades and occupations: Leaders great and leaders small. But the farmer leads them all; For the farmer leads the feeders; Furthermore he feeds the leaders.

Stewed figs, if allowed to soak several hours then cooked slowly in a lowed to soak sevoked slowly in a double boiler, make a most delicious fruit to serve in various ways. Add a bit of lemon juice and sugar; 'boll down the juice and pour over the figs. CHEESE Chicken Loaf.—Take one chicken, one stale loaf of bread, two tablespoonfuls of chopped parsley, salt, pepper and chicken broth. Boil chicken in water to cover until tender. Remove from the broth and also remove the meat from the bones. In a buttered baking dish put a layer of buttered crumbs, the crumbs should be very coarse, the bread pulled in pieces with the fingers. Dot the crumbs with bits of butter and add a layer of chicken which should be in slices, not chopped. Add bread crumbs and chicken until all are used. Pour over the whole two cupfuls of broth, add salt and parsley. Bake until the crumbs are brown. Apple Corn Bread.—Mix together four cupfuls of cornmeal, two tablespoonfuls of baking powder, half a teaspoonful of salt, then add two cupfuls of chopped apples, one fourth of a cupful of shortening, and one and one-fourth cupfuls of water. Bake forty minutes in a slow oven. Corn Souffle.—Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter, add two tablespoonfuls of flour, one tablespoonful of salt, one-eighth of a teaspoonful of pepper. Add one and one-half cupfuls of scallied milk and one-third of a cupful of soft bread crumbs. Cook until smooth add two cupfuls of corn and the yolks of two eggs beaten well. Fold in the whites of the eggs beaten stiff and turn into a buttered baking dish and bake thirty minutes. As the summer time and jelly season approach it is well to prepare for the delicious jellies which may be made of fruits which lack pectin. This may be supplied by the following: Peel all of the yellow rind from thick-skinned oranges or lemons. Remove the white peel and put it three in a meat grinder. To each cupful of the chopped, pressed down peel add the juice of one lemon and let stand one hour. Add two cupfuls of water, and let boil five minutes. Let stand over night, add four cupfuls of water, heat to the boiling point and boil ten minutes. Strain through a jelly bag. Pour this extraction into sterile bottles and keep until needed. Boiled Fish.—Clean, scrape and tie the fish in a cheesecloth. Drop into simmering water to which has been added a tablespoonful of vinegar to a quart of water. Cook until tender. Remove carefully from the cloth and serve with: If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man—Mark Twain. GOOD THINGS FOR SUMMER LUNCHONS. With berries becoming plentiful and many regions where wild berries are to be had, there are many delicious dishes to be made from them, both now and canned for future use, when the season is over. there are many delicious dishes to be made from them, both now and canned for future use. when the season is over. Fruit Mush.—Pick over and mash any fruit in season; add one-half its bulk of boiling water and cook slowly until tender enough to be put through a sieve fine enough to retain the seeds when such fruits as blackberries are used. Use this fruit pulp instead of water in cooking any breakfast foods. Stir in a little sugar and mold in cups. Serve cold with cream for breakfast, or for dessert. Fruit Taploca.—Cook together equal measures of fruit and water until soft enough to put through a sieve. Measure, return to the fire and for each cupful add a scant tablespoonful of taploca. Stir frequently until it swells, then cover and cook until transparent. Add sufficient sugar to sweeten; pour into a serving dish and set aside. Serve with ice-cold cream. Strawberry Pudding.—Butter thin slices of moist bread and arrange a layer in a baking dish. Crush a pin of strawberries, adding a little water to make more juice and sufficient sugar to sweeten. Pour the fruit over the bread, arrange another layer and let stand covered in a cold place. Serve with cream and sugar. This is a dessert you need not fear to give the children. Cherry Pudding—Take one cupful of flour, one teaspoonful of baking powder, one-quarter of a teaspoonful of salt; sift and mux well and add one-half cupful of milk to make a drop batter. Butter small custard cups or molds and drop in a spoonful of the latter; add a tablespoonful or two of pitted cherries, juice and all; sweeten to taste. Set the cups into a shallow pan, pour around them boiling water to half fill the pan, and cover closely, cooking fifteen minutes. Unmold and serve with a cherry sauce or cream and sugar, or sweetened whipped cream. July 4th statistics show that we lose more fools on his day than in all the other days of the year put together. This proves, by the number left in stock, that one Fourth of July per year is now inadequate, the country has grown so.—Mark Twain. GOOD CAKES The days when a pound or even a cupful of butter was used in making cakes are now almost forgotten and with sugar scarce and high, cakes except of the simplest kinds are a luxury. 蛋糕架 Golden Orange Cake —Take one-half cupful of clarified drippings, one cupful of New Orleans molasses, one egg, one tablespoonful of sugar, the juice and rind of a small orange, one teaspoonful of soda dissolved in one-half cupful of cold water, two cupfuls of pastry flour, a pinch of salt. Mix as usual; bake in a shallow pan. Butter while hot and cover with powdered sugar. Cream Loaf.—Cream one-half cupful of shortening, add one cupful of sugar and the well-beaten yolks of two eggs. Add one-half cupful of milk or thin cream, one cupful of flour and one-half cupful of cornstarch sifted with three teaspoonfuls of baking powder.
