LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY A Plea for Women SHE IS THE STAR BUILDER OF HOME, WHICH IS THE FOUNDATION STONE OF ALL TRUE GOVERNMENT. VOL. XXVI. WHILE waiting for Delaware, Vermont or some other state to ratify the Woman Suffrage Amendment, and while the Flying Squadron is bombing the stronghold of Connecticut, trying to make it possible for millions of intelligent human beings to exercise their rights as citizens, we will consider a few points regarding woman's suffrage. While the question has not been settled, lacking but one state to make it legal, we firmly believe that failure is impossible and that woman's suffrage will soon be an assured fact. We further believe that through women alone can come the solution of the labor and social unrest that confronts us today. This cannot be settled in a month or a year, but in a generation and women in the home is the influence which will finally settle it. The clean reigning in the home must never be taken from womanhood. If it is, then woman has failed in her purpose. Esther, the diplomat, saved her nation and the woman of this age will do the same The first inventions, the first homes and the beginning of human culture are due to the influence of woman. She was the first agriculturalist of the world and to woman belongs the honor of developing an adequate human language. Sacred and profane history is full of the records of great deeds by women. They have ruled kingdoms and commanded armies. They have excelled in state-craft and in literature. They have risen above environment, broken the shackles of custom and tyranny and stood beside their brothers in the fields of arts and sciences and proved themselves the peer of man. The fate of nations has been determined by their treatment of women as merely the servant of man and bearer of his children find a limit to their power of expansion and vitality. The vices which spring from disrespect of woman are fatal. In the primitive days while man with brain and brawn engaged in a fierce struggle for his own existence, woman led in the struggle for the life of others. The human mother first learned the lesson of love and by her example, drew from the breast of man those chivalrous and exalted sentiments which have been such potent forces in the development of a pure society. While man learned the arts of hunting and war, woman made for herself and children a permanent habitation and lured the roving hunter and bold warrior to home and the peaceful arts of commerce and manufacture, received. The fixed habitation is indispensable to the development of mind and the accumulation of property. The woman is star builder of the home. The home localized the man. The home is the foundation stone of all true government. What affects the government affects the home. Witness the pitiable condition of women and children in foreign lands, caused by the ravages of war and the dastardly profiteering in our own country. Every department of the home is today under the control of the government and hence in politics, and the woman who takes no interest in those issues which affects her home and loved ones, has not realized the value of the ballot as a factor in regulating those conditions which so vitally affect the home. Woman suffrage is no longer a theory. It has been tested, tried and not found wanting. It should be the duty of every man to uphold the brand of every woman in her efforts to redress a great and unspeakable political wrong. One cannot conceive how any high minded man, with a heart, a soul and an intellect, can look his mother, wife or daughter in the face and say that he is entitled to any political rights which she does not ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION possess. Neither can one understand how an intelligent woman can be an anti-suffragist. This class of women consider themselves qualified to discuss suffrage, using every known argument to thwart it as not qualified to cast a ballot. Furthermore, it is beyond comprehension to view the attitude of some of our men—the Negro men—when they appose this measure. Do they forget the long dark night of slavery? Do they forget that in nearly every southern state their brethren are intimidated at the polls and forced oftentimes, to flee their manhood rights as citizens? Why not unite with the women and fight for a common cause. Many noble men are espousing this cause. Never shall we forget the great suffrage parade in London, headed by Emmeline Pankhurst and thousands of women who shared her sentiments. Not only suffragettes were in that mammoth procession; but thousands of men bearing banners on which were inscribed their determination never to cast a vote until their women were given the ballot. Today the harvest is being garnered and England has a woman sitting in her parliament and making laws for staid conservative Great Britain. Women are shaping public opinion. They are needed to bring the mother love into politics, to warm up this old world and humanize it for service. The world war has been a great leveler and proven women as well qualified to master economic principles in the daily work of administration. They possess superior tact, more patience, sympathy and willingness to take pains and to comprehend the smallest details. Men say that woman's chief care is the home and children. It is because of this very fact that women work so ardently for the ballot. They say—"Woman is the Queen of the home and rules over our hearts." The woman of today is willing to accept this beautiful tradition, but if she is queen of the home, why not invest her with power to protect her home and children from the baneful influences which so often blast and bring sorrow to her domain. When her babe perishes through polluted milk and water supply over which she has no control, because it is in the sphere of politics in which she has no voice; when the health of her whole family is threatened because of tainted food from unscrupulous venders; when the germs from noxious weeds and malignant diseases are driven by the winds to her door, from neighbors who fail to protect themselves against these evils—then the queen should have the power to command and stay the pestilences. Truly her home is her sphere of action, but like charity it does not stop there. Women of the North, the South, the East and West, as one great composite body, let us emulate the example of these illustrious agitators. Let us neither falter nor waver to help the needy, to cheer and restore, to raise a higher standard of morality and religion. To urge the beauty of womanliness; of unswerving devotion to truth and goodness. "Heaven's gate is shut to him who comes alone," sings Whittier. We must lend a hand to others before we can enter into its glories. "I am a part of God's great plan, And so I will do all I can." The Southern white man proclaims that the Negro is good in his place and then proceeds to make and define his place or sphere. Man, though he may not realize it, has consciously or unconsciously, fixed woman's sphere, and not God, as he imagines. Said a great statesman: "The right to vote is the great primitive right. It is the right in which all freedom originates and culminates. It is the right from which DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 24, 1920 all others spring, in which they merge and without which they fall whenever assailed. It may be withheld by force; but if withheld by reason of sex it is moral robbery." When the Fourteenth Amendment was under discussion in the United States Senate a member said, "Suffrage is a political right which the few may give or withhold at pleasure." "Let that idea," replied Charles Sumner, "crystalize in the minds of the American people and you have rung the death knell of American liberties." A few days ago a U. S. senator declared that the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments of the Constitution should be abolished. Whither are we tending? Abraham Lincoln once said, "No man is good enough to govern another man without that man's consent," suffragists contend that no man is good enough to govern that woman without that woman's consent. The struggle for human liberty is the very heart of history. Through all the ages men have struggled for it. Yes, even men and women of our own age who have few civil rights and are denied full representation in this great government which calls itself a democracy, a rule of the people—are still contending for this priceless jewel. The question has been asked, "Are women people?" If so, why should they have to fight for liberty in this so-called republic? It has been declared ever since that little "Tea Party" in Boston Harbor that there shall be no taxation without representation, yet thousands of women who pay taxes on large holdings have not a trace of representation. The reason why women teachers are underpaid is that they have no vote. This is evidenced by the fact that male teachers receive two and three times the compensation to women teachers, who do the same and often better work. One does not wonder at this when it is remembered that teachers' salaries are decided by school committees elected in every town and city by the votes of men alone. It is apparent at a glance that the discrepancy grows directly out of the fact that a disfranchised class has no political power. In states where universal suffrage prevails this discrepancy has been remedied. A standing argument against woman suffrage is, that women could not go to the polls without being insulted. This has been prophesied since 1848 and has never scored a hit. Another is: "She is too pure, noble and capable to mix up in dirty politics." There is not a single objection made to woman's suffrage that is tenable. If our chivalrous brothers think woman so capable, pure and worthy, why do they refuse her assistance? Where is the consistency in attributing ability and denying any play for its exercise? Why not let women help "clean up" those "dirt politics"? The noble women who sacrificed their lives for suffrage and kindred causes would rejoice to see this day. Among our own peerless characters we think of that fearless champion of human rights, Harriet Tubman, the "Moses," God inspired, leading her people from benighted Egypt to the land of light and liberty. Sojourner Truth who startled the Woman Suffrage convention in Akron, Ohio, in 1851 by thrilling and dramatic advocacy of the rights of women and continued her fight through a long life even unto death. Frances E. W. Harper and Fannie J. Coppin, women who towered in courage, strength and love for the women of the world in their struggle for freedom of thought of speech and action. These women stod shoulder to shoulder with Lucy Cady Stanton, Mary A. Livermore and Susan B. Anthony. The latter taught the writer, while a girl in school, the great principles underlying this question and inspired her to become a voice for the women of her race. We were with Miss Anthony in several great world movements for women in this country and in Europe. She was the grand uncompromising woman until the last. Her clear, strong voice; her splendid NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN CELEBRATES 25TH ANNIVERSARY AT TUSKEGEE MORE THAN SEVEN HUNDRED IN ATTENDANCE. MISS HALLIE Q. BROWN ELECTED PRESIDENT. TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Alabama, July 17th—The National Association of Colored Women's Clubs has just closed a five-day session here, with which marks the 25th anniversary of its organization—a quarter of a century of service dedicated to the advancement of the race, to the elevation of the standards of home and community life, to the promotion of peace and good will among the races, and to all worthy movements which have for their object the betterment of the human family. Every state in the Union was represented, and there has been gathered at Tuskegee Institute a more representative group of visitors than has been true this week. The 700 delegates and visitors, and the 600 summer school teachers taxed the dormitory space to its utmost, but in spite of the crowded condition everyone fell readily into the spirit of the occasion willingly and with good nature, thus making lighter the burden of the Reception Committee of the Tuskegee Woman's Club. Beginning Saturday, July 10th, delegates began to arrive, many groups coming in special Pullman cars. By morning there were 14 Pullman cars on the Institute grounds, and every available room in the dormitories was taken. Monday morning and afternoon was given over to preliminary meetings, and the session proper opened Monday evening in the Institute Chapel, at which time, Dr. Robert R. Moton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, delivered the address of welcome on behalf of Tuskegee Institute. Mrs. Robert R. Moton, vice president of the Tuskegee Woman's Club, welcomed the visitors in behalf of the Tuskegee Woman's Club. Dr. Moton spoke in part as follows: "We are glad to have you ladies here. You know this is the fortieth year of Tuskegee's history, and I do not think anything is more encouraging or more fitting than that you should on your twenty-fifth anniversary meet here on the fortieth anniversary of the founding of this Institute. "And this is particularly true because this school was founded as you know by a man who had nothing of ancestry of which to boast. But in spite of all the difficulties he faced he was able to establish this school here among people, many of whom were prejudiced against him and his work. "I realize now as never before that the Negro race—no race—can rise higher than the womanhood of that argument; her happy disposition and keen sense of humor, swept away all objections and turned foes into friends. It is said there was always a laugh just behind her lips. Once her appearance in a certain town was announced in a local paper as follows: "Susan B. Anthony blew into town yesterday wearing a bonnet that looked as though it belong to Methuselah's youngest daughter." Miss Anthony's calm comment was: "If I had a vote and he could buy it, he wouldn't care if I looked like Methuselah's oldest daughter." These women stood shoulder to the stage of action. They served their day and generation. They have handed the torch to the women of today. Shall we be less alert less active than they?* They realized that "who would be free themselves must strike the blow." They continued that power of agitation until they aroused the conscience of the country to mould its laws in favor of woman suffrage. —The Favorite Magazine. (By Hallie Q. Brown.) race, and the truth of the matter is, I never knew any race to rise as high as its womanhood. That is what we are struggling for. That is what I am struggling for—that we men of the race rise as high as the womanhood of our race." Mrs. Mary Church Terrell responded to the address of welcome by Dr Moton, and Miss Hallie Q. Brown, of Wilberforce, Ohio, responded to Mrs. Moton's address. Mrs. Talbert's Address. On Tuesday evening the address of the president, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert was delivered in the Institute Chapel to one of the largest audiences assembled during the session. Mrs. Talbert recounted in detail her activities during the war period, and the work she did for the Liberty Loan campaigns, and other war movements. She also referred to the work the Association has done in the restoration of the Frederick Douglass Home at Anacostia, Maryland. The purpose being to make this one of the historical spots of America, which colored people, visiting the Nation's capital, may go and feel the inspiration of being in the home of one who meant so much to the Negro. Senator Harding's Telegram. In the midst of the session on Wednesday morning the following telegram from Senator Warren G. Harding, Republican nominee for President, was received: Dr. R. R. Moton. Tuskegee Institute Alabama Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. Please extend to the members of the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs now gathered at Tuskegee, my cordial greetings and the best wishes for a most successful and interesting convention. Let me express the hope that the Association will be guided by that broad and uplifting spirit which characterized the Founder of Tuskegee Institute. Booker Washington was one of the really useful men of the country, devoting his life to the service of his people, teaching them thetrue way to live and pointing out the paths which they must follow for the uplifting of their race. His example is the great heritage which your people should guard zealously. When the telegram was read, motion was offered that the Association go on record as endorsing the Republican party, but the motion did not carry. The following telegram was sent in reply by Senator Harding: Hon. Warren G. Harding: Marion, Ohio. Marion, Ohio. The National Association of Colored Women's clubs acknowledges cordial greetings extended to us through Dr. R. R. Moton, and thank you for sentiment so warmly expressed. We can assure you that during this session which marks the 25th anniversary of the Association, as in past sessions, we will be guided by that broad uplifting spirit which characterized the life and works of Booker T. Washington, founder of Tuskegee Institute. For 25 years the Association has dedicated itself to promoting the true Americanism, peace and good will. We regard this message, coming at this momentous period of our Nation's history, and from so distinguished a citizen, as most inspiring and encouraging. With best wishes. MARY B. TALBERT, President, National Association of Colored Women's Clubs. Unveiling of Portrait. On Wednesday, July 14th, at the evening session held in the Institute Chapel, a life-size portrait of T. Talbert, painted by Mrs. Fannie R. Givens of Louisville, Kentucky, was presented. The applause which followed the unveiling of the portrait showed how much the members of the Association appreciated the splendid and unselfish efforts of their president to make the work of the Association a success. Mrs. Givens is the founder of the National Historical Art League of America. This portrait is to be hung in the Frederick Douglass Home. Ceremonies at Dr. Washington's Grave. One of the most impressive incidents in connection with the meeting of the Association was the visit to the grave of Booker T. Washington, by the delegates in a body, at 5 o'clock, Thursday afternoon, at which time a beautiful wreath of roses was placed on the grave and Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, president, spoke of the debt of gratitude, which the Negro race owes to Booker Washington for his vision, foresight, and sacrifice that the masses of his people might be uplifted. The motto of the Association, "Lifting as We Climb," was most beautifully referred to by Mrs. Talbert in comparing the spirit which animated the life of Booker Washington. Tuskegee Remembered. The sum of $1,000 was appropriated by the Association to be applied to the Scholarship Fund of Tuskegee Institute as a token of love and respect for Tuskegee, and as an evidence of the appreciation of the courtesies extended to them while here. The interest from this money will go to pay the tuition of one student each year. Election of Officers. There was much interest, of course, in the election of new officers, which passed off harmoniously. Miss Hallie Q. Brown, of Wilberforce, Ohio, was elected president, and Mrs. Janie Porter Barrett, of Peake, Virginia, first recording secretary. CHEYENNE, WYO, NEWS Rev. J. M. Allen departed the city for Denver, where he will meet Mrs. Allen, who departed last week. The reverend and wife will leave Denver and spend a few days at Salt Lake before returning to his charge at Sacremento, Calif. Rev. Allen is on his vacation until August 1st. He stopped at Cheyenne to visit Rev. C. O. Smith. Rev. Smith put him to work fighting the devil. We really had a few devils in Cheyenne, but when Rev. Allen departed all sinners had repented or asked for prayers and "backsliders" had returned to the fold. The truth will bear repeating: It was the most successful revival we have had. We wish Rev. Allen and wife God speed in his work for the Lord. Mrs. Mattie Crawley returned from Denver after attending the funeral of Mrs. LeNoir. Mrs. Corine Mitchell and Mrs. Ben Frazier have recovered from recent illness. Mrs. Hattie West of Memphis, Tenn., is visiting her daughter, Mrs. Belle Armstead. Mrs. Jos. Boyd of Denver is a visitor in the city at the home of her parents, Rev. and Mrs. J. M. Endicott. Mr. George Althouse of Omaha was in the city on Monday. Tuesday afternoon, July 20th, Mrs. Chas. Johnson gave a children's party in honor of her niece, Miss Edna Lee, of Chicago. This party was an event long to be remembered by the little ones who attended. Granville Bailey was in the city on Sunday. HARDING SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE A NEW KEYNOTE Republican Nominee at Notification Ceremonies Discusses Problems Confronting Nation. "HOLD HERITAGE AMERICAN NATIONALITY UNIMPAIRED" Advocates Party Responsibility as Distinguished from Dictatorial and Autocratic Personal Rule—In Referring to League of Nations, Says, We Do Not Mean to Shun a Single Responsibility of the Republic to World Civilization—Favors Protective Tariff, Merchant Marine, a Small Army, Woman Suffrage and National Budget. Marion, Ohio—(Special) July 22. Warren G. Harding was officially notified here of his nomination as the Republican candidate for the Presidency. His speech of acceptance is, in part, as follows: Chairman Lodge, members of notification committee, members of national committee, ladies and gentlemen: The message which you have formally conveyed brings to me a realization of responsibility which is not underestimated. It is a supreme task to interpret the covenant of a great political party, the activities of which are so woven into the history of this republic, and a very sacred and solemn undertaking to utter the faith and aspirations of the many millions who adhere to that party. The party platform has clarred the way, yet, somehow, we have come to expect that interpretation which voices the faith of nominees who must assume specific tasks. Let me be understood clearly from the very beginning. I believe in party sponsorship in government. I believe in party government as distinguished from personal government, individual dictatorial, autocratic or what not. No man is big enough to run this great republic. There never has been one. Such domination was never intended. Tranquility, stability, dependability—all are assured in party sponsorship, and we mean to renew the assurances which were rended in the cataclysmal war. Our first committal is the restoration or representative popular government, under the constitution, through the agency of the Republican party. Our vision includes more than a chief executive, we believe in a cabinet of highest capacity, equal to the responsibilities which our system contemplates, in whose councils the Vice President, second official of the republic shall be asked to participate. The same vision includes a cordial understanding and co-ordinated activities with a house of Congress, fresh from the people, voicing the convictions which members belong from direct contact with the electorate, and cordial operation along with the restored functions of the Senate, fitted to be the greatest deliberative body in the world. It is not difficult, Chairman Lodge, to make ourselves clear on the question of international relationship. We Republicans of the Senate, conscious of our solemn oaths and mindful of our constitutional obligation when we saw the structure of a world super government taking visionary form joined in a becoming warning of our devotion to this republic. If the torch of constitutionalism had not been dimmed, the delayed peace of the world and the tragedy of disappointment and Europe's misunderstanding of America easily might have been avoided. The Republicans of the Senate halted the barter of independent American eminence and influence, which it was proposed to exchange for an obscure and unequal place in the merged government of the world. Our party means to hold the heritage of American nationality unimpaired and unsurrendered. The world will not misconstrue. We do not mean to hold aloof; we do not mean to shun a single responsibility of this republic to world civilization. There is no hate in the American heart. We have no envy, no suspicion, no aversion for any people in the world. We hold to our rights and mean to defend, aye, we mean to sustain the rights of this nation and our citizens alike, everywhere under the shining sun. Yet there is the concord of amity and sympathy and fraternity in every resolution. There is a genuine aspiration in every American breast for a tranquil friendship with all the world. One may readily sense the conscience of our America. I am sure I understand the purpose of the dominant group of the Senate. We were not seeking to defeat a world aspiration, we were resolved to safeguard America. We were resolved then, even as we are today and will be tomorrow, to preserve this free and independent republic. In the call of, the conscience of America is peace, peace that closes the gaping wound of world war, and silences the impassioned voices of international envy and distrust. Heeding this call and knowing as I do the disposition of the Congress, I promise you formal and effective pence so quickly as a Republican Congress can pass its declaration for a Republican executive to sign. It is better to be the free and disinterested agent of international justice and advancing civilization with the covenant of conscience, than be shackled by a written compact which surrevers our freedom of action and gives to a military alliance the right to proclaim America's duty to the world. No surrender of rights to a world council or its military alliance, no assumed mandatory however appealing, ever shall summon the sons of this republic to war. Their supreme sacrifice shall only be asked for America and its call of honor. There is a sanctity in that right we will not delegate. Disposed as we are, the way is very simple. Let the failure attending assumption, obstinacy, impracticability and delay he recognized and let us find the big, practical, unselfish way to do our part, neither covetous because of ambition nor hesitant through fear, but ready to serve ourselves, humanity and God. With a Sonaté advising as the constitution contemplates, I would hopefully approach the nation of Europe and of the earth, proposing that understanding which makes us a willing participant in the consecration of nations to a new relationship to commit the moral forces of the world, America included, to peace and international justice, still leaving America free, independent and self reliant, but offering friendship to all the world. It is folly to close our eyes to outstanding facts. Humanity is restive, much of the world is in revolution, the agents of discord and destruction have wrought their tragedy in pathetic Rusa WARREN.G. HARDING sia, have lighted their torches among other peoples, and hope to see America as a part of the great red conflagration. Ours is the temple of liberty under the law, and it is ours to call the sons of opportunity to its defense. America must not only save herself, but ours must be the appealing voice to sober the world. It must be understood that toll alone makes for accomplishment and advancement, and righteous possession is the reward of toll and its incentive. There is no progress except in the stimulus of competition. The chief trouble today is that the World War wrought the destruction of healthful competition, left our storehouses empty, and there is a minimum production when our need is maximum. Maximums, not minimums, is the call of America. It isn't a new story, because war never falls to leave depleted storehouses and always impairs the efficiency of production. War also establishes its higher standards for wages, and they abide. I wish the higher wage to abide, on one explicit condition—that the wage earner will give full return for the wages received. I want, somehow, to appeal to the sons and daughters of the republic, to every producer, to join hand and brain in production, more production, honest production, patriotic production. because patriotic production is no less a defense of our best civilization than that of armed force. Profiteering is a crime of commission, under production is a crime of omission. We must work our most and best, else the destructive reaction will come. The menacing tendency of the present day is not chargeable wholly to the unsettled and chaotic conditions caused by the war. The manifest weakness in popular government lies in the temptation to appeal to grouped citizenship for political advantage. It would be the blindness of folly to ignore to the activities in our own country which are aimed to destroy our economic system, and to commit us to the colossal tragedy which has destroyed all freedom and made Russia impotent. This movement is not to be halted in throttled liberties. We must not abridge the freedom of speech, the freedom of press, or the freedom of assembly, because there is no promise in repression. These liberties are as sacred as the freedom of religious belief, as inviolable as the rights of life and the pursuit of happiness. We hold to the right to crush sedition, to stifle a menacing contempt for law, to stamp out a peril to the safety of the republic or its people when emergency calls, because security and the majesty of the law are the first essentials of liberty. He who threatens destruction of the government by force or flaunts his contempt for lawful authority ceases to be a loyal citizen and forfeits his rights to the freedom of the republic. No party is indifferent to the wel- fare of the wage-earner. To us his good fortune is of deepest concern, and we seek to make that good fortune permanent. We do not oppose, but approve, collective bargaining, because that is an outstanding right, but we are unalterably insistent that its exercise must not destroy the equally sacred right of the individual in his necessary pursuit of livelihood. Any American has the right to quit his employment; so has every American the right to seek employment. The group must not endanger the individual and we must discourage groups preying upon one another, and none shall be allowed to forget that the government's obligations are alike to all the people. We are so confident that much of the present-day insufficiency and inefficiency of transportation are due to the withering hand of government operation that we emphasize anew our opposition to government ownership. We want to expedite the reparation and make sure the mistake is not repented. A state of inadequate transportation facilities, mainly chargeble to the failure of governmental experiment, is losing millions to agriculture; it is hindering industry; it is menacing the American people with a fuel shortage little less than a peril. It emphasizes the present-day problem and suggests that spirit of encouragement and assistance which commits all America to relieve such an emergency. Gross expansion of currency and credit have depreciated the dollar just as expansion and inflation have discredited the coins of the world. We inflated in haste; we must deflate in deliberation. We debased the dollar in reckless finance; we must restore in honesty. In all sincerity we promise the prevention of unreasonable profits; we challenge profiteering with all the moral force and the legal powers of government and people, but it is fair—aye, it is timely—to give reminder that law is not the sole corrective of our economic ills. Let us call to all the people for thrift and economy, for denial and sacrifice if need be, for simplicity of living to that prudent and normal plan of life which is the health of the republic. New conditions which attend amazing growth and extraordinary industrial development call for a new and forward-looking program. The American farmer had a hundred and twenty millions to feed in the home market, and heard the cry of the world for food and answered it, though he faced an appalling task amid handicaps never encountered before. Contemplating the defenselessness of the individual farmer to meet the organized buyers of his products and the distributors of the things the farmer buys, I hold that farmers should not only be permitted but encouraged to join in co-operative association to reap the just measure of reward merited by their arduous toil. Our platform is an earnest pledge of renewed concern for this most essential and elemental industry and in both appreciation and interest we pledge effective expression in law and practice. We will hail that co-operation which again will make profitable and desirable the ownership and operation of comparatively small farms intensively cultivated and which will facilitate the caring for the products of farm and orchard without the lamentable waste under present conditions. America would look with anxiety on the discouragement of farming activity either through the government's neglect or its paralysis by Socialistic practices. A Republican administration will be committed to renewed regard for agriculture and seek the participation of farmers in curing the ills justly complained of and aim to place the American farm where it ought to be, highly ranked in American activities and fully sharing the highest good fortunes of American life. Becomingly associated with this subject are the policies of irrigation and reclamation so essential to agricultural expansion and the continued development of the great and wonderful west. It is our purpose to continue and enlarge federal aid not in sectional partiality but for the good of all America. I believe the budget system will effect a necessary helpful reformation and reveal business methods to government business. I believe Federal Departments should be made more business-like and send back to productive effort thousands of federal employés who are either duplicating work or not essential at all. I believe in the protective tariff policy and know we will be calling for its saving Americanism urgain. I believe in a great Merchant Marine. I would have this republic the leading maritime nation of the world. I believe in a navy ample to protect it and able to assure us dependable defense. I believe in a small army, but the best in the world, worth a mindfulness for preparedness which will avoid the unutterable cost of our previous neglect. I believe in our eminence in trade abroad, which the government should aid in expanding, both in revealing markets and speeding cargoes. I believe in establishing standards for immigration, which are concerned with the future citizenship of the republic, not with mere man-power in industry. I believe that every man who dons the garb of American citizenship and walks on the light of American opportunity, must become American in heart and soul. I believe in holding fast to every forward step in unshackling child labor and elevating conditions of woman's employment. I believe the Federal Government should stamp out lynching and remove that stain from the fair name of America. I believe the Federal Government should give its effective aid in solving the problem of ample and becoming housing of its citizenship. I believe this government should make its Liberty and Victory Bonds worth all that its patriotic citizens paid in purchasing them. I believe the tax burden imposed for the war emergency must be revised to the needs of peace and in the interest of iniquity in distribution of the burden. I believe the negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of all their rights that they SALIENT POINTS IN SPEECH OF ACCEPTANCE THE COLORADO STATESMAN "I pledge fidelity to our country and God, and accept the nomination of the Republican party for the presidency of the United States.

I believe there is an easy and open path to righteous relationship with Mexico. It has seemed to me that our undeveloped, uncertain and infirm policy has made us a culpable party to the governmental misfortunes in that land. Our relations ought to be both friendly and sympathetic. We would like to acclaim a stable government there and offer a neighborly hand in pointing out the way to greater progress. I believe in law enforcement. If elected I mean to be a constitutional President, and it is impossible to ignore the constitution, unthinkable to evade the law, when our every committal is to orderly government. The four million defenders on land and sea were worthy of the best traditions of a people never warlike in peace and never pacifist in war. They commanded our pride, they have our gratitude which must have genuine expression. It is not only a duty, it is a privilege to see that the sacrifices made shall be required and that those still suffering from casualties and disabilities shall be abundantly aided and restored to the highest capabilities of citizenship and its enjoyment. THE COLORADO STATESMAN The womanhood of America, always its glory, its inspiration and potent uplifting force in its social and spiritual development is about to be enfranchised. Insofar as Congress can go the fact is already accomplished by party edict, by my recorded vote, by personal conviction I am committed to this measure of justice. It is my earnest hope, my sincere desire that the one needed state vote be quickly recorded in the affirmation of the right of equal suffrage and that the vote of every citizen shall be cast and counted in the approaching election. Unequaled as an advertising medium for the business of professional men and women. And to the great number of noble women who have opposed in conviction this tremendous change in the ancient relation of the sexes as applied to government I venture to plead that they will accept the full responsibility of enlarged citizenship and give to the best in the republic their suffrage and support. Ours is not only a fortunate people but a very common sense people with vision high, but their feet on the earth, with belief in themselves and faith in God. Whether enemies threaten from without or menaces arise from within, there is some hide-finable voice saying, "Have confidence in the republic; America will go on." An excellent family journal speaking to and for many thousand colored citizens. Lion Attacks Trainer. Sioux City, Iowa.—Fred Delmar, owner of a wild animal act, suffered a badly lacerated arm and other injuries when attacked by a lion in a cage at the fair grounds here. The attack was made after Delmar had jabbed at the lion with a fork. While the lion was chewing Delmar's arm the trainer gave a mighty lunge, throwing the animal off, and then ran from the cage. Suffragists May Take Appeal. TWODOLLARSAYEAR Burlington, Vt.—If the suffrage amendment is not soon ratified by the thirty-sixth state, Vermont suffragists will appeal to the United States Supreme Court to declare illegal Governor Clements' veto of the presidential suffrage bill passed by the Vermont Legislature last year. This was announced in a statement from suffrage state headquarters. After Rum Runners.

EPLETE with wisdom, eloquence, patriotism, Justice and firmness, and R without evasion, Senator Harding gave forth to the world his inter- pretation of the covenant of national and party responsibility~in a most masterful, keynote speech of acceptance on Thursday, at Marion, Ohio, in response to Senator Lodge's speech of notification, which also was a wonderful jem of thought and statesmanship by the great Republican leader in the United States Senate. Once again the nation takes hope in the possibility of a Republican administration; once again the long op- pressed race to which we belong takes heart in his firm expressions of sympathy and open declaration that “the federal government should stamp out lynching, and remove that stain from the fair name of America.” The frank and able manner in which our nominee has discussed every para- mount issue pertaining to the government marks him as one of the*great men of the nation, who was perhaps less known for his statesmanship pre- viously by the public, than now, because of his reticence. This wonder- ful speech of acceptance will, without doubt, plug the guns of the oppo- sition press and party who began at once a strenuous and active propa- anda to impress the country that Senator Harding was but a “faint and colorless force” in the great Senate of the United States. His speech of acceptance thus vindicates the action of the Chicago convention in nomi- nating him, He points the way to a rehabilitation of the resources of the nation without spasmodic or volcanic expression, or giving of a false alarm of “fire!” How refreshing to the minds of the common people when he disclaims any ambition or desire to become a super-president, but rather contents himself, if elected, with being a constitutional President who will have a patriotic regard for the laws of the country and its constitution, ‘To become aroused with that “‘spirit of America’ one need only read Senator Harding’s speech of acceptance. He announces from the beginning that he believes in party sponsorship in government; in party government as distinguished from personal government, individual, dictorial, auto- cratic or what not.” Again he says, “No man {s big enough to run this great republic.” Such expressions as these, coming from the Republican nominee, bring assurances to the people that there will be harmony and team work between the executive and the two legislative branches of the government, In advocating the new policy of inviting the vice president to partici- pate in the cabinet meetings marks Senator Harding as a progressive man with broad views. That is fine, and is as it should be. He speaks for Americanism when he declares that “Our party means to hold to the heri- tage of American nationality unimpaired and unsurrendered.” It must have been with great comfort when Europe read in his speech, “We do not mean to hold aloff; we do not mean to shun a single responsibility of this republic to world civilization. There is no hate in the American heart. ‘We have no envy, no suspicfon, no aversion for any people in the world.” ‘This most remarkable man has made his appeal to every class and group in the nation. To the sons and daughters who toil, he pleads for more production along with their increased pay; to the farmers he defends their right to demand a fair price for their products. He stands for woman suf- frage; he believes in helping those who still suffer from the disabilities and casualties of the great conflict of nations, But to the American Negro, hear what an eloquent message of hope he sends to us from his great heart, when he says: “I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the en- jJoyment of all their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citi- zenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battlefields of the Republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sym- pathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands.”” ‘Thus it is, this man upon whom we have pinned our faith, our hopes and our aspirations, we shall march to victory. THE CROWD. ae OUTSTANDING man or woman is seldom swayed or influenced by the clamorous crowd, but on the contrary they oftimes bring the crowd with them, What is the matter with society and government today? Simply that the would-be leaders are harkening to the voice of the crowd rather than the “voice of the people.” When statesmen forget, or mistake the yoice of the crowd for the voice of the people, then it is time for the citi- zenry to take warning and begin to counsel among themselves for the good of the nation and the people. The timid citizen and the crafty politician are ever ready to go with the crowd. They have not the wisdom nor the solidarity to withstand the unthinking crowd. ‘The social climber and the pussyfoot politician are alike in that they are swayed more by the popular crowd than by the reserved and reasonable thinking citizen. Some of us are too eastly influenced by the crowd, the excitement. ‘A civic movement of merit to the community is launched, but poorly supported because the crowd has not yet been attracted. Once let the crowd come and have its sway and it blooms, blossoms and dies, The pe- culiar thing about the crowd is that it never sticks, It is made of that vaporous, disappearing stuff and soon passes on. ‘The thinking man, the man worth while, is usually seen apart from the crowd. The crowd is often mistaken for popularity, but not always so. Many times, many poor souls seek the crowd to forget some sin, some wrong or some misstep in life. The crowd is not the gathering place for the thinker, the man who creates. © Unfortunately we find many people who go only to certain churches, not for the spiritual benefit they are supposed to derive from their attend- ance at these services, but because they usually find the crowd there at these churches. ‘Their nature drives and compels them to go with the crowd. Many men who have been in public life, able, forceful and useful servants have been forced to retire to private life again because the clamor- ous crowd were against them for the time being and rather than to sub- mit their nature and experienced judgment to the rash and\ immature judg- ment of the crowd they would gracefully retire from the stage of action and await the real voice of the people. This was notably true in the case of the Ite Robert W. Speer, when he was defeated for the mayoralty by Mr, Arnold by the largest majority in the history of the city, although he was then serving as mayor. It was not long, however, until Mr. Speer was triumphantly returned to office with greater power than any fnayor in the country. He was not of the crowd and, of course, was never with the crowd except when the crowd was right. Had he lived, he would have be- come one of the states most able statesmen because he was not afraid of the crowd, In other words, he was not what we term our opportunist politiciag. We find many men who constantly kept their ear to the ground to anticipate the demands of the crowd. When the crowd was right this san was there to lead it, but when the crowd was wrong you saw him with his hat in hand waving the crowd back. Such a man was the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt—one of the greatest Presidents in history and the most popular and best beloved American of his time, Thus it is to be with the crowd, but not of the crowd, but not with the crowd. . WHY A COLORED CIVIC ASSOCIATION? For many years every town and city of any importance had @ com- munity development organization, Some kind of organization to “boost” the town, to develop its trade, to direct in a safe and sane manner its more important affairs, to instill in its citizenship elvic pride, and, in fact, it has been found that there is no limit to the helpfulness of these town develop- ment organizations. They are called, as a rule, Commercial Clubs, Boards of Trade, Chambers of Commerce or Civic Associations. For many years these community development organizations have been confined to white men, These white men have directed all affairs of a civic or commercial nature from a white man’s viewpoint only, while the intelligent men of our race sat idly by and took no Interest or concern whatever in what was taking place. The white man spent his money to help build up the city. He put in his time and effort to help “put across” the big things for the benefit of the community. He worked day and night for his home city. He asked no help from the Negro citizen, He, received no help. Consequently, he felt that the Negro citizen was not to be con- sidered as an important factor in the city’s development, ‘Time Changes Ail Things. But now the Negro is taking his place in the life of the community because of his increasing civic pride, his intelligence, and his willingness to do his part as a full-fledged, home owning, law-abiding and liberty-lov- ing citizen. Therefore, he is organizing his own boards of trade, commer- cial clubs, chambers of commerce and civic associations. In numerous instances these development organizations, among our own men, have co- operated with the organizations among the white men to mutual advant- age, and as a result colored citizens are more and more being considered in all matters affecting community welfare, The Colored Civic Associa- tions are endeavoring to see to it that all citizens receive the same consider- ation, and whenever a big problem of any kind confronts the city, the Col- ored ‘Civic Association “rolls up its sleeves” and helps to put the thing over just as the white Civic Association does. It means that the colored citizen is showing an interest in his city the same as the white citizen. That he realizes that it is his city the same as it is the white citizen's city. Why should he not be broad enough to help? The Colored Civie Assocla- tions that have been organized in various cities of the country have found out that there is much that may be done by them in helping the community in general and the Negro in particular. Once they are organized and com- mence their work on a broad basis, free from political or other entangling alliances, there is no limit to the real usefulness and unselfish service they may render. Non-Partisan and Non-Political. The development organization in this elty among our people is the Denver Colored Civie Association. It is non-partisan and non-political just the same as these organizations that have been formed in other cities and where they are doing such acceptable work in the name of the race. The Denver Col- ored Civic Association ig growing each day in membership. It will soon be a strong, virile working body of intelligent colored men, seeking to do all the good it can in the community. It will be a permanent institution in Denver, It will assist in the regulation of health conditions among our people. It will urge among our people in Denver a more co-operative, friendly and helpful spirit one toward the other. It will “boost” Negro business and Negro effort. In time, because of its studied plan of foster- ing among our own people a feeling of friendliness and pride in each other, the entire race in Denver will be together. There will be no narrowness among us, but a broad, liberal view will be taken of all things. We will begin to take our rightful place in the community. Own our own bank- ing institutions, build up our own industries, patronize our own wherever possible and thereby make a place in the community for our own. In doing this we will not lose sight of the fact that we will still be helping to build up our city. We will be doing this because we will be making of ourselves more progressive citizens, A non-partisan and non-political organization, such as the Denver Colored Civic Association will be, may be relied upon and looked to by the colored citizens of Denver to represent them in all matters affecting their welfare, A membership campaign drive is now under way and new mem- bers are being added every day. Applications are being accepted now ama the yearly dues may be paid later. Blanks for membership may be se- cured from DENVER COLORED CIVIC ASSOCIATION, ~ D, WELLINGTON BERRY, Campaign Manager. 25 Good Block.

Music loving Denver will receive this announcement with extreme sat- isfaction and will look forward with keen anticipation to the coming of this famous singing organization. ‘The assurance has been given that the Williams Singers this season are at their best, and everywhere they have appeared this verdict has been voted to them. It is because that the troupe now has some additional voices and this has greatly strengthened the singers and has augmented much in the rendition of their most interesting and varied program. While the Williams Singers are capable of rendering classical music in the most classical way, they have become famous throughout this coun- try and in Europe for their singing of the songs of their fathers and moth- ers, the Negro melodies, the world renowned Jubilee songs. These songs were composed back in the dark days of our forefathers, who even in those days were possessed of a sweetness of yoice and an accuracy of execution that was the wonder of the age. Again, the compositions themselves were most remarkable. Think of “Roll, Jordon, Roll,” “Swing Low Sweet Chariot,” “Shine, Shine,” “Steal Away,” “Mobe Along,” “I want to Be Ready,” and many others that have thrilled and still are as popular as when they were first heard back in the days of slavery. ‘The new Williams Singers can render these songs as well as all of the newer selections in a manner that will be most pleasing and satisfying. It is predicted that the Zion Baptist church will be taxed to its utmost ca- pacity to hold the great audience that will greet the singers on the night of August 16. ATTENTION, MR.

THE "Y" GIRLS AT SUNSET. Sunset, Colo., July 18, 1920. Editor Colorado Statesman, Denver, Colo. We arrived here safely yesterday about 5:30 p. m., and are having a grand and glorious time and enjoying the pure mountain air. After surveying the beautiful surroundings we prepared for supper, which comprised wenies, boiled eggs, pickles, bread, home-made oat meal cookies and coffee. At a proper hour we retired for the night; at 9:50 this morning we started on our hike to Glacier Lake, but before doing so Mrs. Parks read a chapter from the Bible and we repeated the Lord's prayer. It was a long two and a half miles up the mountains, but by resting from time to time we all got back, feeling none the worse from our journey. We carried a light lunch with us, but we are now waiting for a scrumptuous dinner, which will consist of roast beef and gravy, macaroni and cheese, lettuce and salad dressing, tomato sauce, bread and butter, lemon jelly and candy. You will no doubt realize what it is to drink pure water from a well from which I had the pleasure of drawing my first bucket. This is an ideal spot for outings and that we are taking advantage of the same goes without saying. The "Y" girls are talking of making this event an annual affair, as it is all enchanting to spend a few days away from the city and mingle with the wonders of nature. The girls all wish to be remembered to their friends in Denver. Yours sincerely, CLEO IRENE HOBSON. The Joslin Dry Goods Co.

A DEFENDER OF THE RIGHTS OF HIS PEOPLE, A SUBSTANTIAL SUM WAS RAISED TO ASSIST IN COURT PROCEEDINGS. When Dr. LeRoy Bundy, a doctor of dental surgery, formerly of East St. Louis, Ill., held his audiences at Shorter and Campbell Churches spellbound for hours last Monday and Tuesday evenings, giving a detailed account of the injustice, suffering and death that our people met at the hands of the mob in the riot at East St. Louis, which lasted intermittently from May 28th to July 1, 1917, stalwart men gave vent to tears when the doctor, with a term of life imprisonment hanging over him and now temporarily released, modestly gave an account of the ordeal through which he passed in his brave stand for right in defense of the Constitution of America as applied to his people's cause. Never have we listened to a more heart-rendering blood-curdling episode as that related by this professional, a victim of cruel injustice, who was indicted and convicted to life imprisonment because HE DARED TO DO RIGHT AND DARED TO BE TRUE to the teachings of the democracy of his country. After relating the origin of the outbreak and showing clearly that the labor unions were responsible for the preliminary part of the conflict, which was strengthened by a white attorney-at-law in a speech in which he incited and inflamed an audience of 5,000 whites to resort to the physical resulting in mob violence, to get rid of the Negro workman, to create an intimidation and in the end cause a deterrent effect on the migration of Negroes into East St. Louis. The speaker concluded with a plea to look upon the future with hope, to have confidence in one another, and a greater love to be manifested for each other, to be so imbued with the spirit of true manliness that we become party and parcel of the race to which we belong in reality, and in his own words stated: "I come as a messenger of peace; I may not have another opportunity of looking into your faces and addressing you, but if my suffering, and my going to a prison cell, if the judgment is not reversed, will open up an avenue for better treatment of my people as citizens of this great democracy, I willingly go. I LOVE AMERICA, BUT AMERICA MUST LOVE ME, TOO." Dr. Bundy was introduced by Attorney Callaway of Kansas City, Mo., who is one of the attorneys in the case and is accompanying Dr. Bundy on this tour. He gave, with much emphasis, and in a very fluent and eloquent style, information as to the doctor's standing in the community of East St. Louis, and also a resume of the proceedings leading up to Dr. Bundy' release from prison. Mrs. Bundy, whose faithfulness and unceasing devotion to her husband evidenced the PRESBYTERIAN CLERGYMAN TALKS. At 5:30 Sunday afternoon at People's Presbyterian Church, Rev. J. A. Thos. Hazell will deliver a special address on "The Ethics of Democracy." A special effort is being put forth to secure a large audience of colored citizens. In the opinion of this minister who is an ally to every progressive move for the betterment of the Negro, the only way to secure deserving recognition in our government of city, state and nation is by an intelligent and prudent use of the ballot. Too many Negroes neglect this citizen right of preparation to vote. That an educational campaign should be waged most aggressively by the more intelligent Negro on his unfortunate brother within our borders who have expatriated from places where the privilege to vote is rigidly denied him is a momentous issue. This minister therefore issues a call to a solemn assembly of all colored citizens at his Church to confer on the matter with the view of rectifying the abuse. RACE RENOWNED ELOCUTIONIST AND TEACHER AT WILBER-FORCE UNIVERSITY, ELECTED PRESIDENT of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs at their Annual Convention in Session at Tuskegee, Alabama. The annual session of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs held forth last week at Tuskegee Institute, Tuskegee, Ala. There were 700 or more delegates present in attendance upon the convention which was the largest ever in the history of the association. Delegates came from almost every state in the Union, representing the thought and brains of the women of the race Miss Brown, who succeeds Mrs. Mary B. Talbert as president of the association, is one of the foremost educators and leaders of the race among our women. She has long been before the public, and as a public speaker and locutionist she stands at the head of the list. Mrs. Talbert, who retires as president, leaves the office with a wonderfully brilliant record for achievement. She has certainly done a great work and placed the association upon a higher plane and firmer basis. She goes to Norway in August as one of the ten delegates, she being the only colored delegate to represent this country at the International Conference of Women of the World.

Editor, Colorado Statesman, and To the Colored People of Colorado. Denver, Colorado. Ladies and Gentlemen: I am writing this letter that you may make public, as far as possible, an incident which occurred at the State Convention at Pueblo in May last, and that a true history of the selection of a colored man as alternate to the National Convention may be made known. When a colored man was nominated as alternate to the Chicago Convention there seemed to suddenly spring up considerable opposition from various delegates throughout the convention. I felt that it was absolutely essential on the part of the Republicans of Colorado that they recognize the loyalty and voting strength of the colored membership of the Republican party, and knew that something must be done at once to check the opposition of that candidacy. I was seated next to the Honorable Karl C. Schuyler in the delegates' seats when this situation presented itself, and consulted with him as to what move would be best to secure the naming of a colored alternate to the Chicago Convention. Following his and other Republican leaders' advice, I moved to close the nomination of alternates to the National Convention, which motion started a debate resulting in the closing of nominations and the election of a colored gentleman from Pueblo as an alternate to the Chicago Convention. We were all very much impressed with the marked ability shown on the floor of the convention by this representative of your race. I wish to state these things to your people so that you may understand the reason for my action in that convention and also the attitude of Mr. Schuyler and his friends toward your people. Believe me to be, Most respectfully yours, C. A. PRENTICE. FUNERAL NOTICES. Douglass Undertaking Co. Whitsel, Sherman, 2 years, infant of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Whitsel, at —Sizes 6 to 14 years.

CLEANLINESS IS AID Eliminate Necessity of Spending Large Sums to Replace Wardrobe by Giving Immediate Attention to Rips and Tears. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Men as well as women can help reduce the high cost of clothing. A little care on the part of the weare will do much to preserve clothing already on hand, and thus eliminate the necessity of spending large sums frequently to replenish the wardrobe. This is brought out in a recent publication of the United States department of agriculture. Farmers' Bulletin 1080, Selection and Care of Clothing. Immediate attention to rips, sewing on loosened buttons and hooks, reworking worn buttonholes, and "preventive" darning are recommended as means of prolonging the life of a garment. The latter repair measure consists of reinforcing a worn place with rows of fine stitches or by laying a piece of cloth under it and darning it down with traveling of the material. The heels and toes of stockings and socks especially may be treated this way before a hole is entirely worn through. Shortening sleeves or trousers a little to do away with a worn edge, or putting new cuffs and collar or new trimming on a dress may often add months to the life of a garment. To keep clothing looking "as good as new" as well as actually preserving and lengthening its life, it is necessary to keep it clean. Brushing with a stiff brush for woolen clothing and with a softer brush for velvet or silk, is necessary to remove dust, and sports and stains should be carefully treated with cleaning preparations as soon as possible. In most cases this can be done at home, but it is more economical to have professional cleaners handle very delicate garments. Farmers' Bulletin 861 gives detailed information on the removal of stains from different kinds of textiles. Pressing Preserves Garments. Preserving the shape of a garment lengthens its service. Almost anyone can learn to press clothing neatly. Woolen clothing should be covered with a thoroughly dampened cloth and pressed with a moderately hot iron until nearly dry. If the cloth becomes absolutely dry, shine is likely to appear Spots and Stains in Clothing Can Be Removed at Home. Spots and Stains in Clothing Can Be Removed at Home. on the garment. Silk garments should be pressed very carefully; in fact, sometimes hanging a silk dress over a tub of steaming water will remove wrinkles without actual ironing. Washable white silk garments should be washed and rinsed in lukewarm water, wrapped in a towel, and pressed with a warm, not hot, iron. Handled in this way they will not turn yellow. Shoes, more than many other articles of clothing, need to be thoroughly aired after wearing, to prevent perspiration from rotting the lining. Keeping shoes on shoe trees or stuffed with paper when not in use preserves their original shape, and is especially necessary if the shoes have become wet. Intense heat is likely to crack leather; therefore wet shoes should never be dried under the stove or on a register or radiator. Cleaning Hats and Gloves. A hat that is worn day after day needs special care to keep it looking neat. Careful brushing or, in the case of straw wats, wiping with a cloth dipped in denatured alcohol will remove dust and freshen it. A new band on a man's hat may postpone the necessity of buying a new hat for months. Trimmings on women's hats that become loosened by wind or wear should be sewed into place as follows: Thread a long needle with coarse thread or silk, of an inconspicuous color. Draw the needle from the wrong side through the hat beside the loosened trimming, leaving 2 or 3 inches of thread on the wrong side; pass the needle up and down around the trimming and back to the wrong side of the hat; pull the thread through, the two ends securely and cut them a quarter of an inch beyond the knot. One method of cleaning kid gloves is to rub the soiled parts with cornmeal, moistened with enough gasoline to keep the meal from scratching the gloves, then dry thoroughly in the air. The bulletin mentioned treats also of ways of economizing in the selection of clothing, how to test textile goods, and gives other suggestions of value. DO NOT THROW AWAY PARTLY STALE BREAD Different Ways of Making It Quite Appetizing. Good Plan to Cut Off What Is Needed at Meal and Place Slices in Hot Oven—Crontons Are Made of Odds and Ends. Toasting is the most common method for making state or partly stale bread attractive, but it is by no means the only one. If partly stale bread is put into a very hot oven for a few minutes it grows softer, probably because the heat tends to drive the water from the crust back into the crumb, food specialists of the United States department of agriculture say. Such warmed-over bread is not as soft and springy as fresh, but most persons find it very appetizing. A good plan, therefore, when bread has lost its freshness, is to cut off what will be needed at a meal and place the slices in a hot oven for a few minutes just before serving. In this way bread can be used on the table which would ordinarily be considered too stale. "Twice-baked bread," which is cut bread placed in the warming-oven or in a pan on the back of the stove and allowed to dry out slowly until it is slightly brown and crisp throughout, offers still another way of making stale bread attractive. If desired, this twice-baked bread may be crushed with a rolling-pin and used like the ready-to-eat breakfast cereals. In some localities this dish has long been known under the name of rusks. The little fried cubes of bread called croutons, which are served with soup, may be made of odds and ends of bread. To save time, bread simply broken into small pieces may be fried either in deep fat or in a pan (sauteed) and used for the same purpose. Sometimes bread crumbs fried in a pan are used as a seasoning or sauce for meat. French cooks frequently put pieces of stale bread in soups just long enough before serving for them to soften; the well-known one, "crust in the pot." (croutte au pot). Is simply a thin soup with bread in it. There are many ways of using stale bread in cooking. Almost every good cookbook gives directions for preparing soft and dry crumbs for use in scalloped dishes, bread puddings, etc. The soft parts of bread may be used in place of flour or cornstarch for thickening soups, sauces, gravies, stewed tomatoes (either fresh or canned), etc. Bakers often use stale bread and dried, finely ground cake in place of part of the flour in making fuzzy breeds, cakes and cookies. The housekeeper can often avoid waste by using them in this way in griddlecakes, cakes, cookies, etc. MOPS FOR PCLISHED FLOORS One May Be Made of Old Stockings or Any Discarded Woolen or Flannelette Material. For oiled or polished floors an oiled floor mop is almost a necessity. Several makes can be found on the market, or one may be made of old stockings or any discarded woolen or flannelette material. In a Farmers' Bulletin on "Farm Home Conveniences," obtainable free from the United States department of agriculture, the following directions for making such a mop are given: The material is cut into 1-inch wide strips, which are sewed across the middle to a foundation of heavy cloth. This is fastened to an old broom handle or used in a clamp mop handle. The mop, when finished, is dipped into a solution made of one-half cupful of melted paraffin and one cupful of kerosene, and then allowed to dry. To keep it moist it is rolled tightly and kept in a paper bag away from stoves or lamps. CHEMICAL EFFECTS OF FOOD It May Be Literally True That "One Man's Meat Is Another Man's Poison"—People Differ. Different persons are differently constituted with respect to the chemical changes which their food undergoes and the effect produced, so that it may be literally true that "one man's meat is another man's poison." Every man must learn from his own experience what food agrees with him and what does not.—United States department of agriculture. All Around the House Keep large paper bag in the kitchen for rags.

And show me truths, as stars seen one by one, White faces through the sky's blue window-glass— Oh, let each seed of sorrow in my heart Grow tall and be a neighbor to the sun! Fish of various kinds are particularly appetizing in warm weather and something different will be enjoyed. Jellied Fish.—Soak one package of gelatin in cold water to cover, then add enough more water to make a cupful, dissolve by gentle heat until the liquid is transparent. Have ready four cupfuls of flaked fish, previously cooked. Season highly with salt, pepper, lemon juice or tarragon vinegar. Add the hot gelatin to the fish and stir until it begins to thicken. Pack into an earthen mold which has been rinsed out in cold water and set away to harden. Broiled Smoked Salmon.—Rub the flesh side of a smoked salmon with butter and broil before the fire. Serve with lemon quarters and parsley on a hot platter. Anchovy Toast.—Trim the crust from thin slices of bread and cut into finger-sized pieces after toasting and spreading with butter. Arrange the pieces in a baking pan. Drain anchovies from oil and lay one on each piece of toast. Sprinkle with pepper and lemon juice and cook ten minutes in a very hot oven. Deviled Clams.—Chop one medium-sized onion and fry brown in two tablespoonfuls of butter. Add two dozen clams chopped fine, or a can of minced clams, one cupful of canned tomatoes, a teaspoonful each of chopped parsley and Worcestershire sauce, with salt and pepper to taste; add one-half cupful of dried bread crumbs. When the tomatoes are cooked through, add two eggs well beaten, stir until smooth and take from the fire. Fill clam shells or ramekins with the mixture. Cover with crumbs and brown in the oven. Curried Clams.—Fry a chopped onion brown in a tablespoonful of olive oil. Add a teaspoonful of curry powder and a tablespoonful of flour. Add two cupfuls of clams with their liquor and cook five minutes. "Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul; and the heart of man knoweth none more fragrant." There is no dish which is more appealing to the appetite during the warm weather than crisp, succulent salads, or those of juicy fruit. **Onion Salad.** — Chop mild onions; add minced parsley and pour over a well seasoned dressing. Serve on head lettuce. **Strawberry Salad.** — Arrange tender, white lettuce leaves in cup shapes. Fill each cup with strawberries and put a tablespoonful of mayonnaise in each cup. Mustard and cayenne should be omitted from the mayonnaise. **Grapefruit and Celery Salad.** — Mix grapefruit pulp with finely cut celery, using twice as much grapefruit as celery. Serve on lettuce with mayonnaise. The Three P.'s.—Take a cupful each of stewed quartered prunes, pineapple and rolled peanuts; mix well and serve in lettuce cups with a French dressing. Tomato and Chive Salad.—Peel and chill small, ripe, round tomatoes; roll in a boiled salad dressing, then in chopped chives. Arrange on the white leaves of lettuce and serve well-chilled. Pea and Walnut Salad.—Take equal quantities of cold cooked peas and English walnuts, broken in bits. Sprinkle with French dressing, let stand half an hour and mix with mayonnaise. Serve in lettuce or lemon cups. Mustard and Lettuce.—Take the small green mustard plants, mix with young lettuce and serve with French dressing. The mustard, cut fine and mixed with cottage cheese, makes a most tasty salad, adding a little cooked salad dressing. Radish and Onion Salad.—Cut in thin slices, without peeling, small radishes, and the same-sized onions; arrange on lettuce and serve crisp and cool. Pass the salad dressing, either mayonnaise or French. Nellie Maxwell Vigilance. "My wife used to sit up till early in the morning, waiting to see what time I came home."

Myrtle Reed says: "Judging by the various books on the subject of luncheons people do not eat at noon unless they have company." This is probably the rule, especially among women in families where the man of the house takes his luncheon downtown. The housewife, even if entirely alone, should have WASHINGTON something hot and take it sitting down. People who do not take time to eat and sleep presently are obliged to take time to die. People who, from false notions of economy, live upon improper food, are shortly put to the greater expense of a funeral. It is better to spend money on fruits, vegetables, milk and eggs than upon wreaths and gates ajar. The one who leans the procession, with his friends riding behind him, might better have postponed this particular entertainment for a few years, and in most cases it could be done by taking more time to live while engaged in the business of living. Luncheon Dish.—Save from breakfast two or three hard-cooked eggs. Prepare small squares of slightly stale bread; butter it lightly before cutting. Make a cupful of white sauce to two eggs and two slices of bread. Prepare the white sauce by melting two tablespoonfuls of butter, add two of flour and when well blended add one cupful of milk. Put into a buttered baking dish a layer of the bread and cover with white sauce, then one sliced egg; repeat and finish the top with bread. Bake until the bread is brown. Add seasoning of salt, pepper, onion juice or any preferred seasoning. This dish may be made and served in the hot white sauce without baking. Sardine Salad.—Drain a can of sardines, sprinkle with lemon juice and alternate with hard-boiled egg quarters on a bed of lettuce. Serve with french dressing. Cucumber Jelly.—Cut peeled tomatoes and cucumbers into dice, saving the juice. Season with grated onion, salt and pepper. Add gelatin and sufficient hot water, using two cupfuls of salad material to half a package of gelatin. Mold and serve on lettuce, with mayonnaise dressing. If thou hast friends give them thy best endeavor, Thy warmest impulse and thy purest thought, Keeping in mind the word and action ever— SUMMER MEAT DISHES.

Mock Terrapin.—Cut cooked calf's liver into dice. Put a tablespoonful of butter into saucepan, add salt, pepper, and paprika, cook until the butter is brown, then add two tablespoonfuls of flour and enough stock to make a moderately thick sauce. The stock may be made with beef extract and water. Add a little chopped parsley, half a cupful of cream, two hard cooked eggs cut fine, a tablespoonful of lemon juice and the liver. Cook until the liver is heated through; remove, add a dash of orange juice and serve at once on buttered toast. Veal Croquettes.—Chop cold cooked veal very fine. Season with pepper, grated onion, paprika and tomato catsup. Bind with a raw egg, or a very thick cream sauce. Shape into croquettes, dip in egg and crumbs and fry in deep fat. Escalloped Veal.—Mince cold cooked veal very fine. Butter a baking dish and put a thin layer of veal in the bottom, with a sprinkling of onion on top. Then add a layer of fine bread crumbs well buttered, chopped parsley, then another layer of veal and so on until the dish is full, having buttered crumbs on top. Pour milk into the pan until the dish seems moist and bake slowly until it is done, with an inverted pan over the dish to keep in the steam. Remove the pan ten minutes before serving to let the top brown, adding more butter if necessary. Creamed Sweetbreads. — Parboll, drain, cut up a pair of sweetbreads. Make a cream sauce, add chopped mushrooms that have been cooked in butter five minutes, season to taste and serve 'n timbales or in paper cases.

But new arrivals for late summer are not at all sedate. The all-white frock and white with a little black introduced make their usual and expected entry but not to the exclusion of color. Yellow in many beautiful tones, including pumpkin and chamois and many shades between, is favored in beguiling little dresses for late summer and with them girdles of black ribbon and other touches of black, seem placed to better advantage than ever. This touch of black belongs to yellow and the usual white finish at neck and sleeves merely adds to its beauty. Some women prefer sheer silk materials for their summer finery and late summer models are presented in crepe-de-chine and georgette as well as in sheer cottons. Examples of both silk and cotton appear side by side above in two late arrivals. At the left an organdie in light yellow is Last Word in S THE story of summer frocks draws toward its close and it has been an intricate and much-embroidered tale. Will this furor for embroideries hold over in fall styles or will it give place to some other forms of elaboration or will we return to the simple life and affect plain frocks? No one except the powers that design behind the scenes is able to make a guess, but here is a late summer gown without a vestige of embroidery on it. All that is left of the endlessly ingenious stitchery that has adorned everything this summer, is a mere trace of it in five rows of stitching at the bottom of a very long smock—or is it a coat. But the model shown above is a late summer dress—not even a straw in the wind for autumn. It is a pretty affair in a soft silk, maybe crepe-de-chine or something equally supple having a plain and comfortably wide skirt with a four-inch hem headed with a group of four narrow tucks. The interesting things about the overgarment are the plaited skirt of it set onto a plain shown and it would be successful, in any color. These dresses reveal once more that there continues a choice between the slim silhouette and bouffant skirts. The organdie chooses the latter, achieving this style by means of tiers of narrow flouces set on at each side of a somewhat full skirt. The bodice has a deep yoke and elbow sleeves cut kimono style, with its lower part joined to them with hemstitching. Points of lace, set in at the front and back redeem its utter simplicity with an interesting detail. The sleeves are finished with a narrow hemstitched hem and organdie makes the girdle. Light pink georgette lends its abiding charm to the soft, summery frock at the right and narrow tucks with bands of open work make its very simple and very effective decoration. It is made with a tunic, which accounts perhaps for its normal, waist line in a day when the long waistline is much admired, and its sleeves are longer than sleeves have been, being a little more than three-quarter length. Summer Frocks bodice three inches—and more at the front—above the waist line, and the odd new sleeves. These are elbow length with a flounce set on at the back under a strap of heavy satin ribbon finished with a buckle. There is a narrow girdle made of the ribbon and fastening with a buckle at the front and a sailor collar of satin, the combination being just what one would expect in July and August, a happy union of black and white with the black playing a minor role. The hat reverses this order of things, being of black clare with white satin facing. It has an unpretentious pattern in white yarn applied to the crown and a small flat tassel of yarn at the side.
