ARTIST ASSISTS BOSTON, MASS., July 29.—Mine Schumann-Heink, in an interview with Olin Downes, musical critic for a Boston paper, Sunday, July 18, was asked some reflections after forty-two successful years on the stage. The famous grand opera star told the critic how she enjoyed being an American in spite of her German ancestry. She said that one among her happiest reminiscences was the memory of her friendship with Negroes. Here are the words in which the great singer voiced her love and sympathy for Negroes: "And one more thing. This is not a thing you asked, but I wish you would publish it. Why do we continue to treat the colored race with prejudice? Let me tell you that if it were Negroes who worked our mines and industries instead of the scourings of foreign nations we would not have the outrages, the Bolshevism, the anarchy which has been and is so threatening a symptom in American industrial life. "These Negroes—how they fought in the war! How you would be thrilled if I were to tell you the anecdotes of one of my sons who had work in preparing and drilling a Negro regiment, and what occurred when those men were brought out to drill for the first time and it was explained to them what it meant to wear the American uniform. Some of the things were funny. Some of them were simply tremendous. "Did they not fight? Are they not intelligent? Will they not repay courtesy and kindness with the same? I know. I am living in Chicago in what is now near Negro quarters. Almost next door to me is a public school where there are many Negro children. Let me tell you that not once, through all those terrible race riots, not since I have been in that house, now for many years, has a single flower in my garden been touched, a single discourtesy of any kind shown me. There is no safer place in the city, no place where I am more at home, more secure, unmolested. "I love these little children so much. They like me. They come out of school and see me, 'Are you back again?' And the voices are unique in their music. And the musical nature of these people is wonderful. There is a young Negro composer in Chicago who has had no musical training, but who composes extremely promising songs without being able even to write them down grammatically. I have several of his works under consideration. "It is a wonderful people; a people with a genius of its own and a genius certain to be of value to American life. Now, must we continue to treat these people unfairly and—one of the greatest horrors of civilization—lynch them? You may say what you like. It may make some people very angry, but I ask this question: Where there is a lynching is it invariably the fault of the Negro? We believe in courts and in the settling of wrongs without bloodshed. "Cannot all of us—you, born here; the Negro born here; myself, come from a foreign land—can we not all be American and substitute in our own lives and interior affairs the doctrine of right for might? "Ah, but I am proud of being an American!" It is probably not well known, even in Chicago, that Mme. Schumann-Heink, is in a large measure responsible for the success of DeKoken Thompson, son of the late Rev. James E. Thompson, rector of St. Thomas' Church, the well-known colored song writer, Mme. Schumann-Heink was attracted by the originality of his compositions and featured one of his songs widely on her concert tours. The young composer thus sprang immediately into popularity with music lovers, and his success as a song writer became assured. POPULATION DECREASES AS THE RACE MOVES NORTH Huntsville, Ala., July 30.—The census report giving Madison county a population of 51,268, an increase of 4,227, or 9 per cent, in ten years, was a disappointment to the people here. The poor showing is ascribed to the migration of our race from the country cities to the North and West. Since lynchings have been permitted to occur in Alabama and the guilty parties allowed to continue their brutal practice without interference from the law, people of our race have been leaving the entire state in large numbers, much larger than had been figured. POLICE QUIZ MAN WITH A $1,500 WRIST WATCH New York, July 28.—Because the police wish to investigate his possession of a $1,500 diamond wrist watch almost as small as a dime, which, it is alleged, he tried to pawn last night for $600, Charles Jordan Harrison, colored, No. 152 Lincoln street, Flushing, was in the line-up at police headquarters today charged with being a suspicious person. Expert jewelers, according to the detective, pronounced the watch a masterpiece. It has a platinum face and gold back and is studded with sixty-seven small diamonds. Its heavy gold buckle is studded with twenty-five diamonds. The watch is of French make.

He recently received a diploma from the school of Our Lady of Pietry, which is located on East 151st Street, near Moore Avenue. He carried off high honors and his marked ability was recognized by the Franciscan nuns who are in charge of the school. COLORED FAMILY IS GREETED WITH A BOMB BY WHITES Chicago.—The only Negro family in the block moved into an apartment at 4660 Prairie Avenue.

Mr. Anderson spent some time with friends in Philadelphia, and during his stay here he spoke on "Liberia, the Land of Opportunity for the Colored American," at the Calvary Methodist Episcopal Church upon the request of Dr. Tindley. He has also spoken at many places in this country on this subject in the endeavor to interest American Neroes in the unlimited opportunities waiting for them in Liberia. In Liberia, Mr. Anderson is Official Surveyor for the government, and also holds the title of Real Estate Collector of the City of Monrovia. His eldest daughter is being educated in America, Mr. Anderson came to America in April as a delegate from Liberia to the Methodist Episcopal General Conference held at Des Moines, Iowa, during the month of May. TELLING THE SOUTH WHAT THE NEGRO IS THINKING ABOUT BETTER RACE RELATIONS URGED IN NOTABLE ADDRESS BY DR. MOTON. CLARKSDALE, Mississippi. — Considered from a narrow point of view, an inter-racial program does appear to violate that familiar law of physics that no two objects can occupy the same space at the same time, but Dr. Robert R. Morton, Principal of Tuskegee Institute, believes that no laws of nature or otherwise have to be violated in order that white and colored peoples of this country might live side by side in mutual helpfulness. He admits that it is a new proposition—or experiment, if you care to term it such, but he entertains no misgivings as to the outcome. Sunday afternoon, July 11th, Dr. Moton and his party journeyed to Clarksdale, Mississippi, and before an audience of more than 7,000 enthusiastic listeners, he told the story that is found in the "back part of the head of every Negro." He told it plainly, candidly and with a forcefulness that carried every word straight to the heart of that anxious throng. Clarksdale, which is located in the heart of the Delta, has a wonderful prosperous agricultural population. Judged by its possibilities to yield large crops of cotton and corn, one would expect to find every acre occupied at a time like the present, when the world food shortage is so acute and the financial return upon labor expended in the production of crops so great, but unfortunately for that section, it was not the case, for much of the land was an idle waste. The trouble with the country and its people was plainly seen. The riots an Elaine, Arkansas, which is not far from Clarksdale, had disturbed them. Yes, it had started them North. Not because they were going North, but because they were disturbed, was the reason for Dr. Moton going down there to speak. The meeting was planned by George H. Hayes, a graduate of Tuskegee Institute. He arranged it not for disturbed colored people alone, but for the white people as well and he had present at that meeting all the disturbed elements of the district. Men were present representing all that is necessary to the solution of any problem, industrial, social or economic, if they could but realize a common platform or foundation upon which to begin negotiations. In that audience there were white people who have sympathetic interest in the Negro largely for commercial reasons; and there also in large numbers were that other class who have a wholesome, humanitarian regard for the race; the Negro business man, professional man, and the land-holding wage earner, the farm owner and operator, and they were all really interested. Not an idle curiosity seeker was in the crowd. Interest brought them all there, none came "to scoff and remained to pray," as the critics of old. They were there primarily to learn about the basis of understanding between the races. Honorable J. H. Shepard, member of the Mississippi legislature and wealthy plantation owner, drew a tremendous burst of applause and shouts of approval when he said: "One way --- to stop misunderstanding in the matter of settlement between Negro tenant and white land owners is for Negroes to own their own farms and have their own bank accounts." After this remarkable meeting was over, the colored group was overjoyed at the courageous handling of the most vexing items in a delicate problem, and the white people were gratified rather than offended, for many of them had learned for the first time about those things which are agitating the Negro. Delegations representing the Chambers of commerce of Memphis, Tenn.; Helena, Ark.; Greenwood, Greenville and Clarksdale, Mississippi, were present and the Memphis Commercial Appeal reflected the splendid enthusiasm and far-reaching interest of the meeting in an editorial of more than a column. The Tuscaloosa Meeting. It was felt by members of the party that a really full program had been rendered, but leaving Clarksdale, the party stopped at Tuscaloosa, Alabama, where Dr. Moton addressed an audience of four thousand white and colored people. Dr. George H. Denny, president of the University of Alabama, introduced Dr. Moton, and drew market interest to his address by a somewhat detailed account of his boyhood associations with Dr. Moton on a Virginia plantation. The Tuscaloosa meeting was typical, both in interest and enthusiasm, of the many such meetings which Dr. Moton is being called upon to address. COLORED NAVY OFFICER MAKES THRILLING RESCUE. Philadelphia, Pa., July 28.—Mr. Henry Brady, the highest ranking colored officer in the United States navy, popular and well known in social circles in Philadelphia, was the hero of a thrilling rescue from drowning in the surf at Atlantic City. Mr. Brady, who is an expert swimmer and diver, was recently ordered by navy officials to proceed to the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., to give instructions in diving. Just before his departure he took a run down to Atlantic City. While in bathing, he heard the agonized cry of a bather some distance away, and hastening to his rescue, rescued him just as he was about to go down for the third and last time. In a short time Mr. Brady landed his burden on the beach, where he soon resuscitated him. JOHNSON'S HEARING SET FOR SEPTEMBER 14TH. Chicago, Aug. 3.—The case of Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, will be definitely settled September 14th, and until that time the Negro pugilist will remain in jail at Geneva, Federal Judge Carpenter announced Monday.

Premier Lloyd George declared in the House of Commons. The killed were fifteen policemen, four soldiers and three civilians. Wounded were thirty policemen, twenty-two soldiers and five civilians. The king received John H. Fahey, former president of the United States Chamber of Commerce, accompanied by A. B. Dennis, American commercial attache at Rome, in an audience at the Quirinal palace. The informal conversation, lasting half hour, had the aspect of a talk any business man in Italy would have with two American business men. Grave statements concerning Italy's food position were made in the chamber by Signor Soleri, the food commissioner. The harvest was disappointing, he reported, and despite requisitioning there would be only twelve instead of the 40,000,000 quintals of wheat it had been hoped to obtain. To meet the needs of the population, the commissioner explained, Italy would be required to purchase broad about 30,000,000 quintals.

Whisky will be one of the hardest things in the world to buy in New York before another month elapses, according to John F. Kramer, United States commissioner of prohibition, who arrived from Washington to personally discover if liquor can be bought here as easily as reported.

And then the children are entitled to all the laughs and thrills while they are young, and so they must see the wonderful acrobats and funny people who every day perform in front of the grandstand. And it is perfectly proper that the young folks should see and bear all the things and sounds patriotic and the wonderful music, and all that. Incidentally it will be noticed that the children are better pleased than are Pa and Ma themselves—it does them good to see the children have a good time, you know. Fully 700 carloads of apples are expected to be shipped from the Olathe and Montrose districts this year, the crop at this time showing bumper tendencies. Help in marketing the crop will be obtained from outside towns, and pickers will be imported from many neighboring high schools, as has been the custom in years past. Pupils of all schools of the state, public and private, are to be guests of the Colorado State Fair at Pueblo Friday, September 24th. State Fair Manager J. L. Beaman has written to county superintendents asking the number of teachers and pupils in their jurisdiction and tickets will be sent for distribution. All Sedgwick county looks with keen interest to the harvesting and care of the nearly 1,500,000 bushel wheat crop that is rapidly turning golden to the harvester and thrasher. The chief anxiety of the farmers has been the harvesting and marketing of their grain. Approximately $2,250,000 will be paid out to beet raisers in the Fort Collins district this year by the Great Western Sugar Company, which has a factory in Fort Collins. The Loveland factory will disburse about $1,560,000. The military department of the state government became the owner of the section of school land upon which the Golden rifle range is located. The state military board paid to the state board of land commissioners $11,808 for the 640 acres, the board having been awarded the section for that sum at the regular monthly land sale of school lands. Daniel D. Thurston, an employé of the state hospital for insane, was arrested by Special Investigator James W. Melrose of the United States department of Justice and City Detectives Brady and McDonald, and is being held in jail at Pueblo, charged with violating the Mann act. Thurston's wife is also being held. Exclusive of state and county projects, the state highway commission at present, with the co-operation of the federal government, is engaged in building approximately 220 miles of improved modern roads at a cost of $3,048,970, according to figures compiled by the highway engineer, J. M. Maloney. The second term of the University of Colorado summer school has been opened with an enrollment twice as large as that for the corresponding period of the preceding summer. Registration is already 725, of which 300 were students who did not attend the first summer term, which had a record breaking attendance of 1,307.

NEW HAMPSHIRE IS WINNER Granite State Recipient of First Prize in Membership "Push"—South Dakota Second. New Hampshire won the American Legion's nation-wide membership "push." May 17 to 22, it was announced at Legion national headquarters recently, and will receive the stand of silk colors offered as first prize to the state enrolling the largest percentage of eligible ex-service persons prior to the close of business on June 15. South Dakota wins second prize, a stand of woolen colors. The prizes will be presented by the national commander, Franklin D'Ollier, at the national convention of the Legion in Cleveland next September. Other states finished in the race. In order, as follows: North Dakota, Nebraska, Vermont, California, Kansas, Oregon, Iowa, Washington, Wyoming, Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Nevada, Minnesota, Illinois, Idaho, Arizona, Ohio, District of Columbia, Michigan, Utah, Wisconsin, Kentucky, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico, New York, West Virginia, Connecticut, Delaware, Texas, Missouri, Florida, Montana, Arkansas, Maryland, Virginia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia and Alabama. The Legion now has 9,452 posts in all parts of the United States and in several foreign countries, and 1,027 women's auxiliary units. The total enrollment since the organization was first established, 15 months ago, is more than 2,000,000, though national dues for all these members for the year 1920 have not yet been received at national headquarters. In determining the results of the membership drive, only members for whom national dues up to and including December 31, 1920, had been received by the national treasurer were counted. Since the drive closed, on June 15, more than 22,000 names of new members have come in. CHAPLAINS' BADGE OF HONOR Medal to Be Given by Protestant Churches Which United in War Work. A commemorative medal is to be given by the Protestant churches which united in war work through the general war-time commission of the churches to all their chaplains of the American army and navy who served in the war. The chaplains' medal is the work of Mrs. Laura Gardin Fraser of New York, one of the best known of American medalists, and the wife of the designer of the Victory button. Mrs. Fraser has chosen, in the design for the chaplains' medal, to represent an army chaplain in the act of supreme service—ministering to a wounded man at the risk of his own life. In the center of the design the AWARD TO THE CHARITY OF THE AMERICAN MARITIME 1917·1918 The Chaplains' Medal. gas mask is seen, ready for immediate adjustment. Indeed, the suggestion is that the chaplain has, perhaps, momentarily removed it, the better to succor the wounded man. The fine record of the men who served as chaplains in the navy, many of them constantly passing back and forth through the submarine danger zone, ministering to the crews of the naval vessels and the soldiers on the transports, is recalled by the representation of the battleship on the reverse of the medal. The striking of these medals is the realization of a suggestion made soon after the armistice in the executive committee of the general war-time commission of the churches. The committee approved the proposal and made it one of the tasks committed to the general committee on army and navy chaplains when the war-time commission dissolved. The medals are intended to convey in tangible form a message of grateful appreciation from the churches to their chaplain song. JACK DEMPSEY IS ACQUITTED Federal Court Disposes of Much Discussed Case of World's Champion Prize Fighter. After a trial lasting more than a week, a jury in the federal court of San Francisco found Jack Dempsey not guilty of violating the selective service act. The jury was out only ten minutes and returned its verdict on the first ballot. The indictment charged Dempsey with knowingly and wilfully falsifying his questionnaire in order to get deferred classification in Class 4a. In this document, which he signed in Chicago in January, 1918, he swore that his wife, mother, father, widowed sister and the two minor children of the last named were mainly dependent upon him for support, and had been living with him for a considerable time. These statements the government asserted were untrue. The evidence showed that Dempsey received his questionnaire in Chicago and had it filled out almost immediately. His manager, Jack Kearns, answered most of the questions, and Dempsey gave his assement as the an- BROOKLYN JACK DEMPSEY. swers were written down. Supporting affidavits were signed by Maxine Dempsey, then his wife, but since divorced, and Effie Clarkson, his sister. There was some confusion in the local draft board over his case, and an informal meeting held one evening, Dempsey and Jack Kearns, his manager, took up Dempsey's situation with John Hogan, chairman of the local draft board. At this meeting Dempsey was placed in Class 4a upon his sworn statement of the contents of the questionnaire. The evidence showed that Mrs. Hiram Dempsey, the mother of Jack, was almost entirely dependent upon him for support, and that he had made substantial contributions to the support of his father, sister, and brother. His statements in this regard were not contradicted. TO FOCH AND FRENCH POILU Commander D'Oller Returns Felicitations Sent by Famous Marshal on Fourth of July. "The American legion, on this anniversary of the fall of the Bastille, through myself as national commander, extends the same hand of fellowship today that the French citizen-soldier grasped but yesterday." In these words Franklin D'Oller, head of the legion, addressed Marshal Foch and the French pollu, returning the felicitations that Foch sent to the legion on the Fourth of July. The message was delivered to the marshal by H. H. Harjes, commander of Paris post No. 1. "Our regard is based on deeper sentiment than mere association in arms," the message continues. "America's youth came to France impressed with the story of your wonderful achievements. We were not disillusioned. We found that France suffered with a smile on her lips; laughed in the jaws of death; held to her traditional courtesy and chivalry at the very time when the foe pounded with coarse fists at the gates of Paris. "There may come a time when jealous hands will seek to sever the bonds that unite France and America. Such a thing never can be accomplished. We of the World War have known France and her fine soul. We have been blood brothers and we will be peace brothers." MESSAGE FROM KING ALBERT Former Private, A. E. F., Receives Cable From Ruler in Commemoration of Chateau-Thierry Victory. A former private, A. E. F., has received a cabled message from a king in commemoration of the great American victory at Chateau-Thierry, the second anniversary of which was July 15. The ex-private is Harold W. Ross, editor of the American Legion Weekly. The king is Albert of Belgium. His message read: "On the eve of the anniversary of the glorious American victory at Chateau-Thierry it is a great pleasure for me to send a token of the high admiration this heroic stand kindles in my heart and to renew tribute of our everlasting gratitude for the heroes who fell on this fifteenth of July, 1918, for the common cause." (Signed) "ALBERT." The message was transmitted through the Belgian Charge d'Affaires at Washington. Mr. Ross is a former San Francisco, New Orleans and Atlanta newspaper man. He took pars in the Chateau-Thierry attack. LAW-AND-ORDER RESUMES SWAY DENVER TEMPORARILY IN HANDS OF LAWLESS ELEMENT BENT ON DESTRUCTION. 2 KILLED; 33 ARE HURT DENVER IS NOW ASSURED OF CAR SERVICE—STRIKEBREAKERS ARE ARRIVING. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Denver, Aug. 6.—Two killed, one probably fatally injured, thirty-two seriously hurt in tramway riots; Denver Post plant virtually wrecked by mob of 500 strike sympathizers; eight tramway cars wrecked by rioters; mobs attack South Broadway and East Side car barns; strikebreakers pursued into Cathedral of Immaculate Conception saved by intervention of priests; twenty-three alleged rioters arrested; twelve cars operated by Tramway company during day and many passengers carried; company announces service will be resumed today; one hundred and fifty additional strikebreakers arrive; Mayor Dewey C. Bailey calls for 2,000 volunteers for special police duty; Manager of Safety Frank M. Downer orders all special policemen to report this morning. The rioters held virtually complete control of the city until midnight, when worn out by their exertions, they gradually dispersed to their homes. Twenty-three men had been arrested by the police in connection with the riots up to 3 o'clock this morning. The riot at the office of the Denver Post was one of the most serious demonstrations of the night, although no one was hurt in the rioting at this point. The mob, however, was completely beyond control of the police, and before the rioters had been dispersed the mob had vented its rage by going through the plant, destroying furniture and fixtures in the editorial and business offices, wrecking the machinery in the composing room and endevouring to damage the presses. The fatalities occurred in a riot late last night at the South Broadway car barns, when a mob attempted to burn the building and rout the strikebreakers quartered there. The men killed were a former service man believed to be John Blake, and A. G. Smith of 2731 Lawrence street. Both of them died after being taken to the county hospital. The first riot broke out soon after an assembly of more than 2,000 union men had gathered before city hall while a committee of leaders of the Denver Trades and Labor Assembly presented a petition to Mayor Bailey requesting arbitration of the tramway dispute.

Further particulars om application THE TRAMWAY STRIKE. ~~ ees STS tow ENVER is again in the throes of a serious street-car strike and thousands D of working men and women are forced to walk to and from work, That this unfair strike of the street car employée is uncalled for and unjust at this particular time is voiced by many thousands of our citizens, ‘We believe that public sentiment is generally against the strikers and that this strike will be a serious blow to all labor unions and that they will lose the strike, No strike ean succeed especially when public sentiment is against the strikers, We believe the street car employés are making unjust and radical demands of the Tramway Company. It is unfortunate that the street car men ure being so foolishly advised and blindly led. Looking at the pay roll of the street car employés just pub- lished we are of the opinion that for the services rendered and lack of skill required in their own work that they are paid a higher wage than any other class of workmen. ‘They receive a monthly salary ranging from $200 per month on down, When we think of the radical demands of the strikers upon the Tramway Company, in view of the present wages: paid the men, we are at a loss to see wherein the men are Justified in calling this strike, It is une just, unreasonable and almost bordering on the verge of crime to compel the working men and women to have to undergo such hardship and inconvenience, Just such strikes as these are foreing the demand for an open shop. In the discussion before the committee on arbitration between the Union and the Tramway, the charge was made that the unions have never lived up te or kept their agreements. In this case the city went into court, the latter part of May and secured an injunction aganist the ‘Tramway and the union men preventing a strike. The matter was taken to the Supreme Court by the ‘Tramway and will come up for hearing at the October term of the Supreme Court, ‘The mayor of Denver advised the leaders of the street car men not to call a strike at this time and to await the final decision of the Supreme Court in the matter, But to no avail; the advice of the mayor was turned down and the voice of the agitators was heard only by the men, Why these men cannot see that they ure injuring themselves, as well as thousands of innocent people who earn much less than they we are at a loss to comprehend. It is certainly a sad circumstance to have such a strike just at a time when our city is filled with tourists, ‘The law must take hold, and we feel assured that it will take hold, and crush this strike, or else business will be seriously crippled, We trust that the men will yet see the utter futility of their attempt to get an inerease in wages by such methods as unlawful strikes, NORTH CAROLINA TO THE FRONT. HE other day in North Carolina a mob gathered to lynch three Negroes | Tae had been arrested for an alleged crime, When Goyecnor Bickett of North Carolina received word that the lynchers were planning an attack upon the jail to seize the three Negroes and hang them the governor decided to take a hand in the matter and see what he could do toward upholding the majesty of the law of the state of North Carolina and promptly dispatched a tive orders to disperse the mob and uphold the law at any cost. ‘The lynehers | laughed at the governor's orders and hooted the militia und actually inade a | rush at the jall, so accustomed were they that the officers would yield and) hand over the business, But in this instance, ax In Kentucky recently, they) were sadly and seriously mistaken, for the treops opened a volley of hot shot from their machine guns and as a result of their mad rush ene lyneher was killed outright; one was wounded and the rest fled like a flock of erows that were shot at. ‘This is the second instance this year where the governors of two Southern states have proven to the world that lynching ean and will be stopped when the governor makes up his mind to defend the law of his state, Governor Morrow of Kentucky was the first governor in all the South to ever display the courage of a real man when he prevented the lynching of a Negro in that state not many months ago. His action was universally ap- pluuded by every patriotic citizen North and South, And now that Governor Bickett of North Carolina has acted in a similar fashion we opine that it will not be many months before lynchings in the South will be one of the lost arts of that section of the country instead of being one of the popular pastimes of the ‘rowdies as at present. We have ne doubt but that the decent, law-abiding and self-respecting citizens of North Carolina will support the governor In the stand he has taken in dealing with the mob, A few more fearless and patriotic governors, not only in-the South but In the North as well, like Governor Morrow of Kentucky and Goyernor Bickett of North Carolina and lynchings will be a thing of the past in this country. This blot upon the South has kept that section of the country back and in disgrace more than any other one thing and now that it is affecting the material progress of the Southern states we find that the better element in the South is getting together and voicing a strong demand that Iynchings be stop- ped and that Negroes be given a fair trial as guaranteed them by uw when- ever arrested We find that whenever und wherever the law is outraged and violated by ‘fa mob that It soon leads to social anarchy and rioting among the same citizens who participate in these lynchings, Look at the street car strike in Denver today where anarchy almost reigns, The police and sheriffs are armed and riding the cars to protect them from damage by the strikers, ‘Phis is against the law and civilization and the officers of the law must put down such radical outbreaks or we will haye nothing but ruin and revolution. /3'\vgrE The Trouble With the World Is That It Has Forgotten How to Smile.

By VICENTE BLASCO IBANEZ, in New York Times. I want to contribute all I can toward the destruction of that mili- tarism, which is the principal cause of the backwardness and the an- archical state of affairs in which Mexico is living. So long as that coun- try does not suppress its generals, who are everlastingly bent on tyran- nizing over it, so long as it is not ruled by pacific citizens able to think in modern terms, Mexico will remain a sad exception, an object of loathing and disgust among all civilized peoples. 'The well-to-do classes of Mexico have fled the country and are wan- derers on the face of the earth. The middle and professional classes have continued living at home, but under deplorable conditions, and either not daring to speak at all, or saying what they really think in as low a voice as possible. What else can they do if militarism is in the saddle? Where can they find protection, if the strongest portion of the people, kept in ignorance formerly by the priests and now by generals calling them- selves liberators fellow the military men blindly on receipt of a rifle and on a promise of two dollars a day, and a free hand? Just as I have spoken heré in the United States T shall go on spenk- ing in Europe and everywhere else. And who knows? German militarisin was a far stronger and a far less ridiculous thing. But no slight influ- ence on its ultimate destruction came from the uprising of public opinion against it throughout the world. Nation of Home-Owners Bids Defiance to Red Terror Attacking World. By MRS. L. F. EPPICH, Denver. In feudal times the laborers made no effort to own their own homes. Their dwellings were provided for them by the feudal lords. Ont of thie grew the great tenantry class, which is the origin of the renting habit of today. In outgrowing feudalism the world should outgrow this tenantry condition. We should emerge into an individualism which demands the individual home and the complete ownership of it. ‘The laws of individuality and of community life express themselvee in the well-being of family life. No community which is made up of renters can express much force in polities nor in civie matters. Owner ship makes the voter interested in community affairs and pride of posses- sion instils a pride in the community which nothing else can give. A certain independence and moral backbone accompanies home ownership and the theories of American citizenship become more the facts and less the dreams of such people. ‘As regards children, they see no interest displayed in the rented abode, ‘They see no tree planting and painting and personal pride of possession that they may emulate in their ambitions. Rather, they natu- rally grow without the true incentives that make of them good neighbors and good citizens. A nation of home owners will survive the insidious red doctrine of “decadence that is grasping at the throat of all nations today. Gasoline Has Now Supplanted Liquor In the Downfall of Young Girls. By JUDGE M. E. NORTON, Lake County, Ind., Cireuit Court. Gasoline has now supplanted liquor as the most potent factor in the ruin of young girls. Automobile joy-riding is a lure to their downfall. __ Thave handled 400 cases of boys and girls in the juvenile court this year. Ninety per cent of the girls that are brought into my court owe their moral downfall to automobiles. Of course you can’t blame the ma- chine, but neverthcless it is true that its misuse has brought sorrow to many homes in recent years. Parents allow their children to go out in machines. not knowing where they go or what they are doing. The speed affords chances to visit vicious places and offers a hosts of temptations. These promiscuous joy- riding parties form one of the most serious problems our juvenile officers have to cope with today. It is on an automobile ride that they are whisked away to a rond- house, a public dance hall. or the shady resorts in this vicinity, Then comes the realization of their ruin and sorrow. ; i | STATESMAN | OOOO ; , ; The Mouth-Piece | | of the People of | , : Colorado and the | Entire West | R oe | | A BELIABLE chronicle | of their doings and progress; a faithful mirror | } of their wants, their hopes, 7 their best aspirations. | R 7 od : | THE | R ‘ | COLORADO | } ‘ { 3 STATESMAN | ET } | } Unequaled as an advertising | medium for the business | of professional men and | cass: | bias An excellent family journal } speaking to and for many thousand colored citizens. ; TWO DOLLARS A YEAR | 2 oo— , | ereaai! pupae si PRET | opti ar 1 THE-COMODAN ONS STATESMAN (THECOLORADG\ S77 STATESMA Bo Solon sf n ea SS, = as | aed —_ Beale = ob ET AN Bk Se bes 4 Bs a ee ele mae, - 5 Son x Sed ee Register!

THE TRAMWAY STRIKE IN DENVER. On last Sunday morning at 5 a. m. ‘the street car employés of the Denver ‘Tramway Company were called out ‘on strike, After a stormy xession last ing from 1 a.m, Sunday morning un- ‘til 4:30 a.m, by a vote of S87 to 10 the union decided to call a general strike and at 5a, m, all ears were tak- en into the burns and the men walked out. ‘The strike was not entirely unex- pected, yet the people were a little surprised when they awoke on Sunday morning and found that no cars were running. ‘The mayor and his staff held seyer- al lengthy conferences with the strike leaders in an effort to bring about a compromise or postponement of the strike, but it was of no avail, The men and their leaders were deter- mined to strike and they struck. ‘Traf- tic is completely tied up, except what service can be had by the jitney bus lines which ave running quite irresu- larly at this time. Wednesday after- noon the first cars were being oper- uted under heavy police guard with little trouble, It fs reported that John (Black Jack) Jerome, the big strike breaker from California, is on the Job hicks snd by the end of the week will haye over 500 men operating ears. ‘The prospects appear that this will be | long and serious strike, and before it is ended may call out several other unions on a sympathetic strike. ‘The city officials and the Tramway Company feel confident in their abili- ty to handle the situation and have the cars in operation on the most of [the:tines by: the end of the week, Many thousands of laboring men sand women are waking to and from work and are put to considerable in- ‘eonventence DEATHS AND FUNERALS. | The Cammel Undertaking Co. _ | Finley—Dr, Isuae W.

On Monday, August 9, the Repub- lean County Assembly will convene to select delegates to the state con- vention, which will assemble on Au- gust 11 in the Auditorium to desig- nate the candidates on the Republi- can primary ticket, THE COLORED VOTERS are making a stubborn fight in many precincts for delegate- ‘ships to the County Assembly. ‘The ‘prospects appear that there will be quite a sprinkling of COLORED del- egates in the County Assembly and consequently a larger representation of COLORED delegates in the State Convention from Denver. ‘The outstanding and manly fight that was made in the last County Assembly by one of our representa- tive colored citizens for a just and proportionate representation of the colored voters to the State Conven- tion is bearing fruit thus early. Al- though Captain Campbell lost his manly fight in that convention for an honest and just representation of colored delegates to the State Con- vention based upon the number of colored voters in Denver, we hope to see the party leaders in the assem- bly realize now the justness of the proposition that was fought for at that time and give the colored voters their fair and just representation. But in giving the colored voters their just representation THE COLO- RADO STATESMAN insists that the scum of our race may not be select- ed to represent us as delegates to such an important convention. The Republican party stands for princi- ple; therefore, in selecting colored delegates they should certainly se- lect colored men and women of char- acter and principle. We have a large number of staunch colored Republi- can taxpayers and representative re- spectable citizens who have fought! the battles of the party at all coe and these are the men and women whom we insist should be —e nized. ' We do not believe the party lead-| ers will foist upon the respectable | colored Republicans who have proved faithful under all circumstances and conditions, Negroes who have been affiliating with the Democrats, Ne- groes who are void of principle and will do anything at any time for a dollar. THE COLORADO STATESMAN pleads for honest, respectable repre- sentation—such only will strengthen the party, insure success and aid in making stronger and better citizens of all our people.

RANN MOTHER'S COOK BOOK by Nellie Maxwell --- THE DROUTH THE Drouth is a long, dry spell followed by a series of sharp explosions in the wheat pit. It is also followed by the agonized accents of the cural speculator who invested somebody else's money and was promptly punctured while reading up on the baseball scores. The Drought is caused by a total absence of rain in places where a little would go a long way. One of the strange and inscrutable mysteries of this floating life below is why the rain should fall with such fervor and exuberance in the spring of the year, who everybody wants to plant corn or try out a new automobile, and then as soon as summer opens up withdraw from the immediate vicinity and allow everything to dry up but the political orator. In the spring it is harder to head off a soaking rain than it is to discourage a visiting collector who is accustomed to speak without pots or mercy, but just as soon as hot weather sets in and raises large, funnacious blisters on the common people not enough rain will fall to properly water one perspiring citizen. A Drouth which has not been advertised in advance is a big asset to successful gambling on the price of December corn, wheat and other breakfast foods. Many a man has Just Folks By EDGAR A. GUEST THE OLD DAYS. Time was that life was partly play and owl could rest a little while. Could find the time along the way to visit with his friends and smile. And he could go on fishing trips and never miss the coin he'd lose. But that was in the days before his wife were fifteen-dollar shoes. Time was the evening brought repose into the weary soul of man. He dropped his work at close of day, untroubled till the next began. And he could play an hour or two; the books he loved he could peruse; But that was in the days before his wife were fifteen-dollar shoes. Great riches were not needed then, in those glad days of long ago; A man could find contentment then with what was given him to know. And there were joys on every hand from which his soul could pick and choose; But that was in the days before his wife wore fifteen-dollar shoes. There is no rest for man today, he's forced to serve the gods of gold; He dare not linger by the way, as once he did in times of old. He must forego his fishing trip and shim all things that may amuse. Because the women folks today are wearing fifteen-dollar shoes. (Copyright by Edgar A. Guest.)

Food for the Family. For those who cannot eat the fresh crisp cucumber they will enjoy them when cooked. Cucumber Piguant. Pare large but not over-ripe cucumbers and slice in half-inch slices. Salt and pepper them and dip in beaten egg which has been diluted with two tablespoonfuls of water, then roll in fine crumbs and fry in deep hot fat until tender and brown. Lay on a serving dish and pour over the following sauce at the last moment: To one painful thick seasoned tomato sauce add a teaspoonful of prepared mustard, a tablespoonful of lemon juice and a tablespoonful of grated onion. Buttered Beets Cook beets until tender, remove the skins and chop. Reheat, adding a little butter, a teaspoonful of sugar and a dash of vinegar. Serve hot. Olive oil may be used in place of butter. Summer Squash Soup. Cut three or four squash into small pieces, mince two onions, add to the squash with two tablespoonfuls of fat, cook until the fat is absorbed. Add a tablespoonful of flour, two stalks of minced celery, two sprigs of parsley, two cloves, two strips of green pepper and enough water to cover. Simmer until all are tender, adding a teaspoonful of salt during the last cooking. Rub all through a sleeve, add milk, depending upon the size of the squashes, thicken with two tablespoonfuls each of butter and flour.

PR GEORGE MATTHEW ADAMS IF YOU would make of your Character a tower of strength, if you would see your business grow steadily and surely, if you would know the really vital, almost priceless secret back of all success since the world began, all through the minutes, hours, days of your life— There exists in New York City a store for men that, because of its appeal to particular tastes and styles, has built up a name for "Class" in its line. Recently, because of this reputation, a young man, new to the city, went into their establishment and ordered half a dozen of their shirts. The salesman represented the goods to be the best of their kind and "warranted" them to be as represented. One of the shirts proved defective. The young man sought an adjustment. He received for his trouble a bundle of cold excuses. The store sent away a dissatisfied customer—the worst advertisement in the world. There exists in Chicago another kind of store that is known wherever merchandising is known. It is the greatest store of its kind in the world. Here is one of the reasons for its marvelous success. In this store a clerk is not allowed to dispute with a customer. If there is dissatisfaction, and it appears reasonable to the clerk, an immediate adjustment is made even though it may mean a loss to the concern. Trifles—yes, trifles—but the attention to them paves the way to wealth, influence and power. Mind the trifles! L DAYS Aw, shut up don't talk so much - you bother me.

Last Night's Dreams -What They Mean HORSES ACCORDING to the oracles of Delphi, Jupiter Amon and Dodona, to Simon Magus and the lesser magicians of modern times who unlock the future for a dollar a peep, to dream of a horse is good luck. Preferably a white horse should be dreamed of, for that announces to the dreamer unexpected riches. If your horse is black your good fortune will not be so great or so complete as it will be if he is white. The intermediate grades of color denote the amount of your good fortune. To see yourself riding a horse—preferably a large, bony one—means success. If a woman dreams that she is riding on a large, showy horse it indicates that the fates have picked out for her—provided she is an unmarried woman of course—a rich husband who will make her happy. But for anyone to dream that he or she is riding a horse is a sign that he or she is about to rise a step higher in the world. But don't fall off. If you do some misfortune is in store for you. None, perhaps, that you will not be able to surmount, for the general beneficent effect of dream horses is so potent that even a fall from one will not be an irreparable misfortune. To dream that you are trading horses foretells that someone is going to get the best of you in a bargain—which would indicate that horse trades run true to form in the world of dreams as well as in the world of actualities. To dream that you are buying a horse is a sign that you will make money by some speculation or a real estate deal. But if you dream that you are selling a horse don't speculate—you will lose. If your dream horse is restive it means that you have much hard work to go through before you achieve the success which your dreaming of him foretells. The dream horse, it should be distinctly understood, is no relation to the nightmare whatever. (Copyright.) WASHINGTON GOSSIP "Who's Who" on Congressional "Junket?" Soldiers' Bonus Legislation in Congress You May Now Do Business With Russians Your Uncle Sam's Big Insurance Company I DECIDED NOT TO GO BUT CONGRESS MAN UNKET TO THE ORIENT WASHINGTON.—"Who's Who" on the excursion promoted by the Pan-Pacific union to enable members of congress and government officials to study trade conditions in the transpacific countries that sailed on the army transport Great Northern July 5 from San Francisco? Nobody seems to know. Originally more than 200 were listed when the invitation was first given out by Representative Randall of California. Quite a few members who wanted to make the trip and take along several friends at Uncle Sam's expense were scared off by the cry of "junket," others were plainly told in letters and resolutions from their constituents that they had better stay at home. Originally the cost was fixed about $1.75 a day. Then it was given out that all must pay their own expenses ALL chance of the passage of soldiers' bonus legislation next winter seems to have gone glimmering. Failure of the party platforms to declare for the proposition seems to have destroyed all hopes of favorable action by congress. Supporters of the bonus bill had relied implicitly on the political conventions taking a stand on the subject. They had gone on the theory that political pressure from the service men would be so strong that both parties would be sure to declare for some form of adjusted compensation. The soldiers' bonus bill as passed by the house a week before the recent adjournment is pending in the senate committee on finance. The committee has given the bill no consideration and may prefer to allow it to slumber without action during the coming session. Officers of the American Legion, however, are certain to agitate and probably will force the committee to report the bill to the floor of the senate. Even in case the bill in some miraculous manner should get through the senate and a conference report is approved by both houses its veto by President Wilson is considered certain. The administration's view of the proposal has been made clear through a letter sent by Secretary of the A man is buying a box of cigarettes from a man. UNCLE Sam has lifted the ban on trade with soviet Russia. If you have any goods you want to sell the Russians, go to it. But bear in mind: You do so on your own risk and your own responsibility. No legal or other protection will be given you. No passports will be issued to your representatives to enable them to go to Russia and drum up business or otherwise look after your interests. If your goods could in any way be employed in war, they may not be exported. The post office will not accept any mail for Russia, so you cannot correspond with your customers or agents. No goods may be sent by parcel post. Otherwise, you are free to engage in commerce with the bolshevki. HOW Uncle Sam has developed one of the biggest insurance companies in the world is shown in a statement issued by the bureau of war risk insurance summarizing the progress which has been made in bringing the bureau's work to a current basis. The marine and seamen's insurance division, which, during the early part of the war, wrote war risk hazards on hulls, cargoes and seamen, has done a total business of $2,487,913.351; collected premiums amounting to $47,585,380; paid claims of $29,118,387; and has a surplus over expenses and refunds of $17,569,821. The allotment and allowance division, which developed into a banking business run for the benefit of soldiers, sailors and marines and their families and dependent relatives, has since the beginning of the war approved 2,090,893 claims for allotment and allowance, involving payments for allotments amounting to $389,333,906, or allowances amounting to $266,481,105, a total expenditure of $555,815,111. The insurance division has written .631,993 polletas covering insurance to other than transportation. The trip includes visits to Hawaii, the Philippines, China, Japan and Korea. It's known that the party reached Hawaii July 11 and left two days later. Later advises from Shanghai said China was preparing an elaborate program for the "party of 136 members." Special trains were to be placed at the disposal of the visitors through Nanking, on to Peking and to Mukden, where the members of the party would become guests of the Japanese government, and would be taken on an extended sight-seeing tour through Korea and later through Japan. Everywhere banquets, receptions, excursions of various kinds, presentations and other affairs were being arranged. Newspaper men were invited to make the trip with the congressmen, so that there could be publicity for the trip and articles written to promote better understanding between the countries. But later orders barred the newspaper men from the trip and restricted it to congressmen and members of their immediate families. Who the congressmen are was to have been made public when the Great Northern sailed. But the transport sailed with the state secret undivulged. Treasury Houston to the house ways and means committee flatly opposing any bonus legislation, and also by the attitude of the administration spokesman at San Francisco in the drafting of the platform. Both the Republican and Democratic platforms declare for proper treatment of the ex-service men, but both carefully avoid any specific mention of either the cash bonus scheme or any forms of adjusted compensation designed to aid those who suffered no wounds. The effect of both the Republican and Democratic platforms is to repudiate the policies of the party leaders in the house. The action of the party conventions, both at Chicago and San Francisco, appears to have been a vindication for the minority among house members of both parties. If trade is actually resumed with Russia, it apparently will have to be conducted through the co-operative societies in the soviet nation. These societies, which have a membership of 20,000,000, furnish the only known medium for the resumption of trade between the United States and the territory controlled by the Moscow government. Whether the soviet authorities are willing to have the co-operatives carry on trade with the United States and other nations which have not extended any form of political recognition to the Lenin and Trotzky regime remains to be disclosed. So far as the United States is concerned, all restrictions on trade have been lifted except as to articles susceptible of immediate use for war purposes. If Americans have anything they desire to ship to Russia, they are free to do so with this one limitation, while Russians may ship out anything Americans will take. The Russian co-operative societies stand as the only commercial and industrial machinery left intact amid general economic disorganization and chaos.

"Why didn't you buy that bill of goods from me? I would have saved you the express, and besides you would have been patronizing a home store, which helps pay the taxes and builds up this locality." The farmer looked at the merchant a moment and then said: "Why don't you patronize your home paper and advertise? I read it and didn't know that you had the stuff I have here." MORAL—ADVERTISE --- KINDS OF FLIES FOUND IN HOMES Careful Observation Required to Distinguish True House Variety From Others. Stable Species, Exactly Resembling House Fly, Breeds in Decaying Matter and Excrement—Description of Other Species. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Several species of flies are found commonly in houses. Some of them so closely resemble the true house fly that it requires very careful observation to distinguish them from it. One of these is the biting stable fly (Fig. 1). It occurs frequently in houses and differs from the house fly Fig. 1—The Stable or Biting House Fly. In the important particular that its mouth parts are formed for piercing the skin. This fly is so often mistaken for the house fly that most people think that the house fly can bite. Causes Much Annoyance. Another frequent visitant of houses, particularly in the spring and fall, is the cluster fly. It is somewhat larger than the house fly, and is distinguished Fig. 2—A Stable Fly. by its covering of fine yellowish hairs. Occasionally this fly occurs in houses in such numbers as to cause great annoyance. It gets its name of "cluster fly" from its habit of collecting in compact groups or clusters in protected corners during cold periods. In Fig. 3—One of the Blue-Bottle Flies. the maggot stage it is parasitic on certain angleworms, especially a common greenish colored earthworm. Another species, which almost exactly resembles the house fly, is the stable fly. It breeds in decaying vegetable matter and in excrement. Several species of metallic greenish or bluish flies also are found occasionally in houses. These include the blow- Fig. 4—One of the Green-Bottle Flies. fly or meat fly, the blue-bottle (Fig. 8) and the green-bottle (Fig. 4) flies. They breed in decaying animal matter. Lesser House Fly. There is still another species, smaller than any of those so far mentioned, which is sometimes called the "lesser house fly." The "lesser house fly" is distinguished from the ordinary house fly by its paler and more pointed body. The male, which is commoner than the female, has large pale patches at the base of the abdomen. which are translucent when the fly is seen on the window pane. These little files are not the young of the larger files. Flies do not grow after the wings have once expanded and dried. In late summer and autumn many specimens of a small fruit fly, known as the "vinegar fly", make their appearance, attracted by the odor of overripe fruit. All of these species, however, are greatly dwarfed in numbers by the common house fly. In 1000 the senior author made collections of the flies in dining rooms in different parts of the country, and found that the true house fly made up 98.8 per cent of the whole number captured. The remainder comprised various species, including those mentioned above. DIFFERENT KINDS OF EGGS USED FOR FOOD Those of Guinea Are Highly Prized for Flavor. Hens' Eggs Are Most Common, Although Those of Other Domestic Poultry Are Used—Fish Eggs Are in Great Favor. Perhaps no article of diet of animal origin is more commonly eaten in all countries or served in a greater variety of ways than eggs, says the United States department of agriculture. Hens' eggs are most common, although the eggs of domestic poultry other than hens are sometimes used. Gulnea eggs are eaten where they are readily obtained and are much prized for their delicate flavor. Turkey eggs are mild in flavor and are eaten to some extent, though they are usually too valuable for hatching to be much used as food. Ducks' eggs are stronger or more pronounced in flavor than hens' eggs, the feed apparently exercising considerable influence on the flavor, but they are much liked by many people and are now used more than formerly. Goose eggs are still stronger in flavor. Nevertheless, they have some use for table purposes, especially in regions where goose raisings is common. In South Africa, where ostrich raisings is an important industry, the eggs are used as food to some extent and are regarded as of excellent quality for cookery. Their food value is also recognized in regions of the United States where ostriches are raised. Eggs of wild birds, once commonly used, are still eaten, but in a limited way. Plovers' eggs are prized by epictures and the eggs of certain kinds of sea birds have been used to some extent. Other eggs besides those of birds are also eaten. Turtles' eggs are generally highly prized and very commonly eaten where they can be obtained. The eggs of the terrapin are served with the flesh in some of the dishes prepared from it. Fish eggs, especially those of sturgeon, are eaten in large quantities, after being preserved with salt, under the name of caviar. Shad roe is another illustration of the use of fish eggs. ADVANTAGE OF HONEY CAKES Keep Much Longer Than Other Kinds and Are Made Without the Use of Sugar. Honey cakes have the advantage over other cakes of keeping fresh much longer. The following one is recommended by food specialists of the United States department of agriculture: ½ cupful butter. ½ teaspoonful cinn. 1 cupful honey. namon. 1 egg. ½ teaspoonful ginger. ½ cupful sour milk. 1 teaspoonful soda. 4 cupfuls flour. Rub the butter and honey together; add the egg well beaten, then the sour milk and the flour sift with the soda and spices. Bake in a shallow pan. IMPORTANCE OF GOOD BREAD All People Agree That It Should Be Light and Spongy, With Golden-Brown Crust. Because bread is often really "the staff of life," it is very important to have it good. People's ideas may differ as to exactly how bread should taste or how it should be made, but in this country all are agreed that yeast-raised bread should be light and spongy, with a crisp, tender, golden-brown crust, and that it should be nutty and sweet in flavor.—United States department of agriculture. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Honey can be use instead of sugar for sweetening custards. Use a fine grater to remove the surface of anything burned. Starch that is stirred with a paraffin candle will be clear. If flatirons are sticky wash them carefully and dry thoroughly. Figs, dates and raisins stewed with a little sirup of honey make a particularly nice cake filling. A little bluing in the last water that you rinse your black stockings ir gives them a much better color. Oh beautiful for spacious skies, For amber waves of grain. For purple mountain majesties Above the fruited plain! America! America. God shed his grace on thee And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea! HOT WEATHER DISHES. There is nothing one may prepare which takes the place of salads of various kinds, especially on hot days. Simple Onion Salad.—Take the small green-topped onions, slice very thin and serve with a dressing of sour cream, salt and paprika.

If the cream is not sour enough add a dash of vinegar. Serve well chilled. Summer Dessert.—Fill a baked pastry shell with fresh fruit, top with ice cream or whipped cream and serve from the table. Today is mine—one royal, golden day, Filled full of restfulness and sweet content. I will forget tomorrow and its care; I have today. What more has anyone? —F. A. Jones. SEASONABLE DISHES. Frozen dishes of all kinds, punches, frappes and sherbets are most welcome during the sultry hot days of midsummer. SHAKE Caramel Ice Cream. — Measure one and one third cupfuls of sugar. Take half of it and caramel- ize it by melting it in a smooth iron frying pan, stirring constantly until a rich brown in color. Add this very slowly to a hot custard made with two cupfuls of milk, one tablespoonful of flour, one egg and a bit of salt. Cook until smooth and flour is cooked, flavor with vanilla and when the caramel is dissolved freeze as usual. **Fruit Ice Cream.**—Take the juice of two oranges, the rind finely grated of one, the juice of two lemons, two cupfuls of sugar, and a quart of rich milk or thin cream.

Stir until cool and beginning to thicken, then fold in the egg, pour into a wet mold and chill. Any fruit may be used for this mixture in place of the lemon. CLASS BY THEMSELVES Stanley is one of a large family. Besides numerous sisters and brothers, there are aunts and uncles galore and many cousins. The only young people, however, are those in his immediate neighborhood. At Thanksgiving dinner Stanley gazed solemnly around the table for a while and then announced oracularly: "My mother and the cat seem to be the only people in this whole family that have any childn." "Oh, the world is full of countries, but here's one that is my own; It's the land that stood for freedom when it had to stand alone; It's the land that gave a welcome to all men who would be free. Of all the lands around the earth it is the land for me." FOOD VALUES. The banana pound for pound is more nutritious than the potato and it constitutes the chief carbohy drate food of millions of people in the tropics, where it takes the place of cereals such as wheat, rye and barley and tubers of all kinds, such as potatoes. Our government experts at Washington tell us that the banana is not only one of the most nutritious fruits but is one of the most easily digested, which explodes some popular theories regarding this fruit. The banana has still another quality which should highly recommend it. The thick skin which covers it is a protection against all contamination and makes it one of the most sanitary articles of diet. As to the digestibility of the banana, ripe ones are classed with the easily digested foods, but it is important to see that the fruit is ripe. The skin of the fruit should be dark yellow or covered with brown spots; often the best fruit if firm is found in the skins which are dark brown. Care should be taken to have the fruit cut from the stalk leaving the skin unbroken. A ripe banana served with a glass of milk is a satisfying meal for one desiring a light luncheon. Banana Pie.—Bake a tender pastry shell on an inverted pie tin and when cool fill with thinly sliced banana, sprinkled with salt and lemon juice. Sugar to taste and over all pour a generous cupful of whipped cream sweetened and flavored with almond. Serve well chilled. Bananas With Steak.—Slice in half a few rather firm bananas; lay in a granite pan with butter, sugar, lemon juice and a sprinkling of salt. Cook in the oven until well done, then serve as a garnish for the steak. Lamb Chops With Peas.—Broll the chops, having them trimmed uniformly. Arrange on a platter garnished with green peas served in a thick drawn butter sauce. When I behold what pleasure is pursuit, What life, what glorious eagerness it is; Then mark how full possession falls from this, How fairer seems the blossom than the fruit— 1 am perplexed. —T. B. Aldrich. EASY LUNCHEON DESSERTS. During the warm weather a dish of fruit with a small cake or a cooky is an ideal dessert. However, for variety the following may prove helpful: COFFEE Almond Blanc Mange.—Make a paste of four tablespoonfuls of cornstarch, wet with a little cold milk, add a quart of milk, four tablespoonfuls of sugar and boil until thick. Flavor with almond and stir in one cupful of thredded almonds or a few tablespoonfuls of almond paste. Mold, chill and serve with cream and sugar. Baked Pears.—Use the large hard pears; core but do not peel. Fill with brown sugar, add a tablespoonful each of butter and lemon juice and baste during the baking. When tender serve cold with cream or the sauce in which they were cooked. Banana Puffs.—Take one cupful each of sugar and flour, one teaspoonful of baking powder, three eggs well beaten and one-fourth of a cupful of milk. Mix well and stir into this mixture three thinly sliced bananas. Half fill buttered custard cups and steam one hour. Serve with a lemon sauce. Lemon Sauce.—Stir one tablespoonful of flour into one cupful of sugar, add one cupful of boiling water, the yolk of an egg, one tablespoonful of butter, tow tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, and a bit of the rind. Cook until smooth and slightly thickened. Gingerade.—Take two tablespoonfuls of ginger, half a cupful of sugar, a tablespoonful of lemon juice; stir and mix with leed water. Lemonade.—Make a sirup by using two cupfuls of sugar, a quart of water and two-thirds of a cupful of lemon juice. Dilute with water to suit the individual taste. Lemon sirup, using a cupful of lemon juice to two cupfuls of sugar and one of water, cooked for five minutes, may be bottled and kept indefinitely. A tablespoonful of the sirup to a glass of water will furnish a glass of lemonade. Orangeade may be prepared in the same way, using a half cupful or less of orange juice in making the sirup. Nellie Maxwell TORTOISE SHELL. The best of tortoise shell will get dull in time, but a good jeweler always knows how to bring back the pristine luster. Combs, brarettes and pins that have become clouded and dingy—real tortoise shell, of course—will come back from a jeweler who understands his business looking as good as new. To brighten the imitation shell hair fixings wash them first with a little tepid water and then polish with a bit of chamois dipped in olive oil. A. HASER, Prop.

AT AND LUNGS NOTHING TO SWALLOW JUST BREATHE IT IN ASIMPLE, PRACTICAL COMMON SENSE TREATMENT FOR Catarrh Hay Fever Sneezing Cold Asthma Bronchitis "Flu" --- Once More Lace Triumphs A New and Enhancing Blouses THE FASHION WEEKLY WHEN it comes to making a choice between a dress of black lace and one of white lace one may expect to be undecided, and fortunate is she who boasts of a wardrobe that includes both. Nothing is quite so satisfying all the year round and anywhere as black lace and nothing is lovelier unless it be white lace. Black chantilly is having a great vogue. We cannot call it a revival because this lace is never out-of-date but its beauties and virtues are newly discovered and widely appreciated. There are many lovely laces, of the filmy varieties, that make up the white lace frocks that have graced midsummer; like those in black lace, they have scored a new triumph. The two lace frocks, shown in the illustration given here, reveal a happy accord between material and design among other advantages that they possess. One of these advantages is simplicity in the design and another is economy for neither requires the cutting up of fine lace, and no one wants to be guilty of that. The all-black dress is made of chantilly flouncing with full, straight skirt and short- New and Enh OF ALL the garments with which women both clothes and adorn themselves, the blouses and smocks of today may lay claim to being the most enhancing to her good books. The late summer has brought in some new ones brief as to sleeves and long as to peplum. All-over embroideries in metal and colored silk threads are placed over backgrounds in fashionable colors, as maize, jade, pale green, orchid or old blue, and materials are supple and more or less sheer with fine crepe de chine, georgette and marquissethe favorites. Nearly all of them are made in the kimono style, with round necks, and in many of them the neck at the front is split a few inches and laced with a little silk cord, or has a bit of lace inserted, forming a narrow vestee. The embrodery employs heavy silk thread in novel and light designs. Bearing these summery blouses company are others with longer sleeves which cover the elbows, at least. What they gain in length of sleeve they lose in length of peplum, as may be gathered from two of these new arrivals shown in the illustration. It is plain that these are blouses for wear at a later date as well as in the last month of summer. They are made of georgette in dark colors and cut, like their forerunners, in the kimono style. The blouse at the left has a short plain peplum finished with hemstitching and a little two-color bead embroidery. The clever blouse at the right hangs The clever blouse at the right hangs in straight lines at the back and front. sleeved surplice bodice. Narrow vervibbon in two rows puts a little emphasis on the waistline and terminates in a handsome bow at the front. It happens that in this particular case a flesh-colored underbodice is worn while the underpetticoat is of soft black satin, but usually a black lace gown is worn over a black satin slip. Accessories are important with these frocks of chic refinement and one notices that the slippers worn with it are of black satin and the stockings of black silk. Also that the hat with flaring brim is made of black lace, but brilliant hats in colors look equally well and they may be suited, as the dress is, to any season. The other alluring frock is all-white and is made over a short underskip of white satin. The lowest flounce makes a very long underskirt and a second flounce above it discreetly veils the ankles. Over these a long tunic makes more than a glimpse of them impossible. A girdle of silver tissue, a white lace hat and slippers of silver cloth or of white satin, according to the occasion, ably support the superb role which this gown is equal to playing. ancing Blouses but is caught to the figure at the sides with a girdle that slips through slashes in the georgette. This one reveals the slit at the front or the neck. A very narrow binding of the material finishes the edges and beads set on it outline the neck opening. A handsome lattice design in beads across the front seems to call for two conventional flowers, and they blossom in silk knots in two places against it. They are in a light color. As for color schemes they may be chosen to suit individual taste. Cretonne is being featured as an attractive dress trimming. It appears as collar and cuffs on frocks of both silk and cotton fabric, a modish little street dress of navy taffeta recently seen having collar, cuffs and vest of bright flowered cretonne, and cotton crepe dresses are, similarly trimmed with good effect. Cotton crepe has played a big part in the development of children's frocks for several seasons, and for this summer many dresses for women are made of it. Accordion Plaita A new handbag reflects the vogue for accordion plaits. It is of taffeta, pouch shaped, of medium size, with a tunic of finely plaited silk flaring from the silver mounting. --- AM wondered how you might increase your new you might have a head of long, and a smooth, lovely complexion? wondered how you might increase your what you might purchase pretty cloths, vacations and purchase a home? for our solution of these problems.
