HARDING'S CONCEPTION OF FEDERAL GOVERN HEARTS OF C IN FULL SYMPATHY WITH RACE THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERN OUT LYNCHING A NAME OF Sacrifices In Blood on Nation's Entitle Race Republican Candidate Forces Lea- national Questions Into Backg His Strong Pronouncemen- and Protect CHICAGO. — Senator Warren G. Harding's conception of the duty of the federal government to the loyal colored citizenship of the country, embodied in his speech accepting the Republican nomination for president, at Marion, Ohio, July 22, has overshadowed all other issues in the minds of colored Americans. With characteristic concentration Senator Harding interpreted the fondest hopes and desires of the colored people, proceeded directly to a policy that would bring about their consummation, and drove home and clinched an essential truth which has been tugging for years at the just American heart; which has been denied by "lesser breeds without the law," and relentlessly striven for by the law-abiding, ambitious and progressive colored man. Senator Harding, in full sympathy with the race, did not do the commonplace thing; just simply condemn lynching. Everybody does that. We firmly believe that those who engage in the disgraceful practice, condemn it. The candidate for president found a remedy for it. He said: "I believe the federal government should stamp out lynching and remove that stain from the fair name of America." From this unequivocal stand the colored people of the country have taken heart, and the hope and faith spring eternal that with the election of Harding there will be a new era of opportunity and endeavor open to the race. There was no soft pedal employed by the statement made by Senator Harding, who went even further and said: "I believe the Negro citizens of America should be guaranteed the enjoyment of their rights, that they have earned the full measure of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battlefields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and opportunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands." It has been more than a score of years since such generous words of encouragement have been given out by a candidate for president and this speech is being enthusiastically re-ceived by the colored leaders all over the country, and their commendation of the candidate who has evinced the courage to go on record is unanimous. Among colored people, quite as keen as the average American upon all issues affecting the country, the League of Nations and other questions, both national and international in which the country is embroiled, have been forced into the background in the face of a new dawn of racial justice, which Sen- ator Harding promises to America by interposing the strong arm of the federal government to put an end to the curse of lynching, which is a blot upon our national escutcheon. While it has been the rule among colored people to look upon the Republican party as their champion, the position assumed by Senator Harding is a long way in advance of anything that has been said or done in years. Col. Franklin A. Denison, late of the Eighth Illinois Regiment, and present assistant attorney-general of that state, commenting upon the attitude of the Republican candidate for president, said: "Whatever the colored man gets in the way of recognition or encouragement comes from the Republican party, but Senator Harding has gone all previous aspirants to the presidency one better by holding out a tangible solution of the questions that are held as a sword of Damocles over his head. That word of Harding's that the federal government should get after lynchers will make many a criminal against the life and constitutional rights of the colored man tremble in his boots. "Every colored man and woman who votes should vote for Harding and Coolidge, and every white man who believes in the supremacy of the law and an even justice to all men should do so, too." NEGRO MUSICIANS HOLD CONVENTION IN NEW YORK CITY Large Numbers of Delegates From All Parts of the Country Attend Second Annual Meeting. A large number of delegates from all parts of the United States, including California, met in New York City last week for three days in the second annual convention of the National Association of Negro Musicians.

The outstanding attractions, however, were the violin and piano sonata, in C major, by Harvey Hebron, played very sympathetically by Edwin Hill, Jr., and Carl Diton, and the singing of Marian Anderson, who will be the first beneficiary of the scholarship fund now being raised. The New York branch of the National Association of Negro Musicians had charge of the arrangements for the convention and performed their task with perfect satisfaction to all. The next meeting will take place at Nashville, Tenn., which, judging from the invitations extended by the schools and business corporations of that city, promises to be the best meeting yet held. CHEYENNE, WYO, NEWS CHEYENNE society matrons strive for supremacy to honor distinguished men and women who visit our city. This fact was evident during the recent visit of Mrs. Virginia Elliott, a prominent lady of Kansas City, Kan. Mrs. Elliott is principal of the Graystone School at Kansas City, Kan. During her visit here she was the house guest of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Jefferson. Mrs. Elliott is a beautiful woman, has sweet disposition, intelligent and a lovely character. She has made a host of friends in Cheyenne, who regret her departure. Following are some of the festivals of which Mrs. Elliott was the inspiration. Mr. and Mrs. Reuben J. Smith entertained at a delightful 6 o'clock dinner on Monday, August 2nd, complimentary to Mrs. Virginia Elliott. Mrs. Smith served an excellent four-course dinner.

The cuisine was delicious. All report a fine time. On Thursday, August 5th, Mrs. Marie Cooper entertained from 8 p. m. to 11. Mrs. Elliott was the guest of the evening. The home was beautifully decorated with flowers. The evening was spent in checkers and other games. Mr. Reuben J. Smith won the checker contest. Mrs. Cooper served a delightful repast, and at a late hour the guests departed, declaring her an ideal hostess. It was on Wednesday evening, August 4th, when Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Jefferson invited forty-one guests to meet Mrs. Elliott. Each guest wore his favorite flower. With beautiful ladies, handsome men and flowers, one was reminded of Eden. Mrs. Elliott read a paper on flowers, which was highly pleasing and interesting, as well as instructive. A response was made to Mrs. Elliott's paper by Clarence J. Toliver, Mr. Toliver's response was brief, as he loves flowers too dearly to express his admiration, but he vowed the honored guest to be the fairest flower in the garden, excepting one. A number of innocent games were played and after a two-course lunch the guests departed with love and best wishes to the host, hostess and honored guest. On Friday, August 6th, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Randall invited a number of selected friends in honor of Mrs. Virginia Elliott. Their beautiful home was made more attractive by sweet peas and nasturtiums sitting about in vases. Different parlor games were played and prizes were won by Mrs. Spencer Cave and Miss Anna Johnson. Mrs. Randall is an expert in the art of cuisine and she certainly tickled the palates --- of her guests with a very dainty luncheon. The evening spent with Mrs. Randall will be long remembered. On Sunday morning, August 8th, Mrs. Wm. Redd and Mrs. H. Turner entertained a breakfast party at Round Top, five miles from the city. Mrs. Elliott was the honored guest. The party of fourteen maids and matrons left the city at 7 a. m. and in a short while automobiles landed them in a beautiful valley under a large tree, where the breakfast was spread. The menu consisted of cantaloupes, fried chicken, hot coffee, tomatoes, pimento cheese sandwiches, corn and butter-cream doughnuts. After the breakfast kodak pictures were taken of the party. They returned to Cheyenne at 10 a. m. Mrs. Redd is noted for her originality, and this, indeed, was a very novel and enjoyable outing.

Thursday afternoon, August 5th, Mrs. Daisy Thompson invited the Searchlight ladies to her home in honor of her mother, Mrs. Martin, who stopped over en route to Montana.

BROWN FOR HARDING Famous Colored Woman Misquoted by Southern Newspapers and Associated Press in Interview. Chicago, Aug. 12.—Recently hundreds of southern newspapers and as many Democratic publications in the north carried an interview purporting to come from Miss Hallie Q. Brown, president of the National Association of Colored Women, professor at Wilberforce University, brilliant teacher of expression and famous woman, in which she is reported to have said that the "Republican party has been asked for a plank in its platform and has given a splinter." In a letter addressed to Phil H. Brown, publicity director of the Republican National committee, Miss Brown repudiates the interview as a sample of Democratic duplicity, and announces that she is doing everything in her power to elect Senator Harding to the presidency. "Dreadfully Misquoted." "I have never had any doubts of our Republican party," writes Miss Brown. "I was dreadfully misquoted by those southern papers. They did not print what I said about the Democratic party, and that I was returning home to work for Harding." The Democratic party offers the colored people absolutely nothing. Its activities are all invested to take from them every civic right and privilege they secured under the Republican party, yet its papers do not hesitate to stoop even to a point where they misquote a woman in their zeal to create any sort of dissatisfaction in the Republican party. Miss Brown is a sister of the late Jere A. Brown, of Cleveland, one of the pioneer members of the Ohio legislature and a great friend of Senator Harding and William McKinley. It is understood that the famous elocutionist will have a big part in the work of organization among the colored women of the country. This was practically arranged for soon after the National convention had adjourned in June.

Dr. Walter Simons, minister of foreign affairs, in an interview in Berlin says Germany is prepared to resume diplomatic relations with Russia when satisfaction is given for the assassination of General Count von Mirbach, German ambassador to Russia, in Moscow in 1918. The lives of eight persons, including four children, living in a two-family house in the Brownsville district, were saved by the heroism of Samuel Fein, 16, who fought his way thru flames and smoke to rescue others who were sleeping in the house. He carried four children thru flame and smoke to safety, and aroused four other persons, including his parents.

Exposure of what a war department announcement at Washington characterizes as a "despicable swindle," by which the mother of a dead soldier was the victim, prompted a new warning by the department that relatives of the soldier dead should pay no money to any person or organization for information as to burial places.

WASHINGTON SIDELIGHTS Can President Veto Joint Resolution? New Wage Campaign of Federal Workers Both Parties Have Endorsed Good Roads Heroic Western Miners Get Gold Medals Heroic Western Miners Get Gold Medals SUIT TO COMPEL PROCLAMATION OF PEACE WASHINGTON. — Suit to compel Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby to promulgate immediately the joint resolution of congress declaring the state of war with Germany at an end has been filed in the district Supreme court in Washington by Harry S. Mecartney, a Chicago lawyer. The suit was based on the ground that the president has no veto power over a joint resolution of congress. Recently Mecartney mailed a printed pamphlet to the members of the executive committee of the American Bar association suggesting that the committee tender to the country at large its service in making up a "case stated" for the justices of the Supreme court, asking an advisory opin- WORKING on the principle that no one can do efficient work unless he receives a living wage, officials of the National Federation of Federal Employees has opened a nation-wide drive for a re-classification of the entire ctlv service and a minimum wage of $3 a day. To bring concerted pressure upon congress this fall, an attempt will be made to organize every federal employee and increase the membership to 100,000. This action follows a meeting here of the executive council, at which plans were made for a campaign to secure better employment conditions for all federal government employees. Charles F. Nagl, custodian of the federal building in Chicago and vice president of the federation, has been placed in charge of organizing the central west. In his territory there are already 25 local unions of federal employees affiliated with the national federation. "What we want," said Mr. Nagl, "is a square deal. We have not had it. More than one-half of the men and women I employ receive less than $3 a day. They have to do outside work to make a living. "I want a re-classification in the whole civil service with a minimum high enough that an employee can GOOD ROADS REGARDLESS of which party wins in the presidential election this fall, American motorists are congratulating themselves that highway development will be continued. In their platforms both the Republican and Democratic parties have placed themselves flatly on record as favoring federal appropriations to assist in good roads work. The Republican party's good roads plank said: "We favor liberal appropriations in co-operation with the states for the construction of the highways, which will bring about a reduction in transportation costs, better marketing of farm products, improvement in rural postal delivery, as well as meet the needs of military defense." THE Joseph A. Holmes Safety association, the hero commission for the mining industry, has announced the awards of gold medals to miners for special deeds of bravery in the saving of human life during the last three years in the United States. It is expected that the formal award of the medals will be made by Dr. Frederick G. Cottrell, director of the bureau of mines and president of the association, during the international first aid and mine rescue contest at Denver, Colo., September 9, 10 and 11, at which miners will be present from all parts of the country. The men who will be awarded gold hero medals are: John L. Boardman of Butte, Mont., safety engineer for Anaconda Copper company, who lone-handed saved three miners from death by poisonous gas in the West Colusa mine.

" "Has congress legal power to bind the nation to accept the League of Nations or can only the electorate of the people legally adopt the same? " He announced he immediately would institute mandamus proceedings and yield direction of the issue to the higher professional authority of the bar association should it desire. He hoped to get action on his proposals in time to have congress called into a short session in September for the purpose of issuing the call to the people to vote upon the issue at the coming November election, providing the opinion of the justices should be against the validity of the congressional peace resolution, yet in favor of the power of the people to control the matter. have his dinner pail full. We want to get the benefits of the retirement act for all employees, so that they will have a little to live on when they can work no more. "As a result of the efforts of the national federation the Republican and Democratic parties have endorsed provisions to remedy inequalities and injustices in the civil service pay scale "We want to see the Nolan minimum wage bill pass congress. We want to see the men rated according to skill, training and responsibility, on a merit system administered by a central agency on which employees have representation." The National Federation of Federal Employees is one of five trade unions composed exclusively of government employees. Its membership comprises 192 locals. The Democratic party was just as specific in the plank adopted at the San Francisco convention. The plank said in part: "Impaired roads are of vital importance not only to commerce and industry, but also to agriculture and rural life. We favor a continuance of the present federal aid plan under existing federal and state agencies, amended so as to include as one of the elements in determining the ratio in which the several states shall be entitled to share in the fund the area of any public lands "perenn."

THE REPUBLICAN MARATHON. AFTER many months of political milling the candidates for the designation for nomination for the different offices on the Republican county and state ticket have been named, and on September 14, they will all toe the mark for the first heat in the great race to be run on November 2. There were many entries for the different honors and among them we find three colored entrants, all stripped for the race with riders up. Whether any one of them or all three will be lucky enough to come in under the wire depends upon many things. While they have many handicaps, however, we wish them all well. The gubernatorial race is not attracting any attention, as Governor Shoum is conceded a renomination. The senatorial race is the great event of the primary and, consequently overshadows all else. The two leading candidates for the senatorial nomination are attended by many professional grooms and political rubbers and a considerable degree of acrimony has been stirred up by the camp followers of these two leading candidates and as a result much feeling is in evidence. Already charges of unfairness have been hurled back and forth by both factions and from present indications it bids fair to become the most heated primary election in the history of the party. Let us hope that the fight may not become so bitter that an irreparable breach in the party harmony may be caused therefrom and the defeat of the entire ticket be the result. We are at a loss to understand or find a sane reason for such a bitter feeling between the supporters of these two candidates at this stage of the game, unless it is that customary feeling of "Cock-sure-to-win" regardless of what we do or say to one another as Republicans. And here let us speak about that "cock-sure" idea. To have a feeling of certainty is a good thing, it helps to win success in many instances, but because we feel sure of winning, does not warrant us in becoming reskless and disregard the rights and feelings of the other party. The fact must not be overlooked that we have only carried Colorado for the Republican nominee but once in thirty years, and that was for Colonel Roosevelt. We want to see the state of Colorado go Republican all down the line this year but if we persist in the unwise tactics of biffing Republicans we will find out our mistake when it is too late. There can only be one regular senatorial nominee on the ticket and we certainly ought to be able to conduct a campaign so that there will be no sores to heal after the primaries and the man who wins the nomination can be supported by each and every Republican. Let us remember that we will have a pretty hard fight to dislodge the enemy after eight long years on the inside of the breastworks. Republicans, watch your step. THE PEOPLE'S DUTY TO THE NEWSPAPER. THE SUBSCRIBERS and readers of The COLORADO STATESMAN have a reciprocal duty to the paper that comes into their hands fifty-two times a year—we never miss an issue. The first duty is to see that the management get their money. Newspapers, like churches, societies and other businesses, cannot run without money, therefore prompt pay is essential. Second—If the COLORADO STATESMAN is a good paper—we try to make it the best—then you ought to try to increase its circulation and subscription, just as you try to get new members into your church and lodge. It means a stronger church or better lodge, just as increased circulation makes a better newspaper. Third—The mission of this paper is the collection, condensation—for that is necessary in the trees busy days—and disseminating of news of a healthy, interesting and beneficial nature to the race. This paper has demonstrated this beyond any question during the past thirty years. But it is impossible to get all of the happenings of importance in a city like Denver unless notice of these events are mailed to our office. Very often meetings of an interesting nature are held, entertainments given, socials, parties and banquets carried out, sports, games and reunions conducted, concerts, lectures and installations indulged in, business transactions, sales and changes pulled off successfully, and people wonder why it is not referred to in our paper. Simply because the management is not aware of the happening, or press tickets or newspaper courtesy mailed or presented to us so that we might send our reporter to get the facts. There are ethics in newspaper work, the same as in other service, and promoters of entertainments ought to make provision for the press the same as they do for other kinds of publicity. The people of Denver want the news. The COLORADO STATESMAN is prepared to give it. This is our business and it is the indispensable duty of every one to assist in getting it to us so that the public may have it promptly. The COLORADO STATESMAN does not charge for space and will not charge except for that of an advertising nature. We will publish all matter mailed to us, reserving, of course, the right to edit the same. Let the public take notice of this and do your duty. MARTIAL LAW IN DENVER AFTER ONE week of a serious street car strike in Denver, filled with rioting, murder and destruction of property, and endless court procedure and the issuing of injunctions, Denver finds herself under martial law and the strike declared off. For one solid week the entire city has been under a strain; the people excited and wrought up to a terrible degree, and the officers of the law overtaxed in their difficult struggle to maintain and enforce the law. During the entire period the people were living and walking in uncertainty, knowing not what to look for from one day to the next. On last Thursday and Friday nights Denver was in the midst of the widest rioting and mob violence perhaps this city has ever experienced. The mayor was forced to the extraordinary expedition of calling upon the American Legion and for volunteers to assist the officers of the law in quelling the rioters. On Friday evening the situation became so alarming that the governor was forced to call for federal troops and at about 1 a.m. Saturday morning Col. Ballon arrived from Fort Logan with 250 U. S. troops, and immediately took command of the situation and proclaimed martial law. Five hundred or more troops were being rapidly hurried by special trains to Denver from Camp Funston. At this moment things, seemingly, are getting back to normal; the street cars on several of the main lines are being operated and passengers are riding on the cars again. Since the arrival of federal troops a feeling of security has pervaded the atmosphere. Whether or not the action of the executive committee of the union in calling off the strike, confirmed by a vote of 997 to 3 of the men, will actually call off the strike and the return of the men to work remains to be seen. We sincerely hope that such is the case and that this strike and the reign of terror that has prevailed is actually over. And now may we ask the pertinent question, what has been gained by the strike? Where have the men who went out on strike benefited themselves? We regret that they went out on strike and condemn their leaders for such ill-advised action. Public sentiment was against the strike, and under the conditions, their leaders should have known and ought to have foreseen the ultimate defeat at this time of such a strike. To strike and lose is far worse than not to strike at all. It not only puts our city in a bad light abroad, but it weakens the cause of the men, especially when the strike is accompanied with violence to people and destruction of property. The unions may actually be averse to violence in any form in a strike, but we rarely ever see a strike of any proportions wherein there does not occur at least some little violence. This violence may not be actually the work of the strikers, but some other lawless, dissatisfied element taking advantage of the situation to work destruction which will be charged up to the strikers. We hope never again to witness another strike of any kind and plead for peace at all times. Let capital and labor listen to reason and submit their differences to just arbitration and abide by the same. Constitutional Government the Sure Base of Our American Liberty. By CHARLES EVANS HUGHES. In an appreciation of the difficulties which have accompanied the period after the war, we must avoid a distorted view and we must not fail to realize that the great heart of the nation has not changed in a few months, notwithstanding the absence of a compelling motive and the rush of competing interests. 5 Unless we have in peace time that dominant sentiment which prompts a continuous and self-sacrificing devotion to public ends, the sacrifices of patriotism in war will have been in vain. Our national ideals are not bound up in anything short of establishing and maintaining constitutional government as the sure base of liberty. It is a spurious patriotism that is linked to the triumph of any creed or class, or becomes the vehicle of bigotry. The common good rooted in the essential institutions of justice and individual liberty—that is the natural ideal. We have talked so much of free institutions that we are apt to think that they will take care of themselves. Our recent and current experiences should disabuse us of this notion. The motto for democracy must be educate, educate, educate. You can find no other security than the intelligence and conscience of the people. But you cannot at once educate and stifle opinion. There is hope in the free air, there is tonic in confidence in ultimate success of what you strongly believe to be true, but the policy of denying free expression of political opinions is death to the republic, for that expression is its vital force. "The practice of putting large discretionary powers at the disposal of officers needs a curb. The patriot in peace demands government upon established principles, and he should always be ready to contest officialism and bureaucracy, with its readiness to suppress individual freedom. A Department of Conservation With Its Secretary a Cabinet Member. By J. H. WALLACE, JR., Alabama Conservation Commissioner. One of the most vital needs of this country is the establishment of a department of conservation, with a secretary who is a member of the president's cabinet, to conserve the rapidly diminishing natural resources of the nation. The creation of a department of conservation would unquestionably result in a more economical administration of our various conservation statutes, and would undoubtedly eventuate in a higher degree of efficiency of service. Each passing year records the diminution of some great natural resource. Our forests are being devastated; our mines are being exhausted; our fisheries are being depleted; our national parks are being exploited for selfish gain, and our migratory bird life must be protected by laws, vigorously enforced, to save it from certain depletion and threatened extinction. Due to the departmental organization of this government, all federal statutes relating to conservation are relegated for administration to the obscurity of a bureau. Hence, many of the conservation statutes have failed to achieve the splendid purposes for which they were designed. The secretary of each of the departments which administers the conservation laws is presumably selected by reason of his knowledge and equipment for the main purposes of the particular department of which he is the head and not because of his knowledge concerning the application and enforcement of our conservation laws. It is impossible for the secretary of a department to give that degree of personal attention so essential to a successful administration to other than what he considers the paramount thing in his department. A department of conservation directed by a secretary would carry great prestige, and would exert a tremendous influence in evolving and securing the enactment of adequate legislation for the preservation of our natural resources. In proportion that our country preserves its natural wealth in the same measure will it continue to prosper and grow in wealth and power. The establishment of a department of conservation will infuse new life and vigor into our existing conservation laws, additional measures will be passed by congress and future generations will have handed down to them at least a fair portion of the treasures of nature's storehouse. These People Who Are Thrifty and Clean—They Inherit the Earth. By MRS. TILLIE J. FRANKENTHAL, Chicago Banker. If everyone would only budget—there would be no need in the whole world. It is injudicious spending and no saving which brings need and want and dependency. You will find among the neediest people the greatest necessity for systematic saving. And usually they are the ones who always have a penny to spend for some nonessential thing. Women are woefully ignorant of matters of finance, but it's not to be wondered at. No one has ever taken the trouble to explain the workings of money to women, or to any one else, for that matter. What folly it is to expect a girl, reared with no thought of money, its needs or its uses, to become a frugal and skillful manipulator of it when she has a home of her own. Finance should be taught in schools, and I think the time will come when the world will agree with me. I don't mean the old stock interest problems and intricate sums. I mean the successful manipulation of money, the graceful art of saving and the intelligent application of the knowledge that money will earn money. Such a scheme will work for our national advancement and for security of many, many people. These people who are thrifty, and clean—they inherit the earth. They are prepared for whatever calamities come upon them. They've saved to meet just such an emergency. They are happy, because they know they have saved to make themselves secure. They have eliminated the bogey of worry from their affairs, all by using foresight and thrift. It's not money that is the root of all evil. It is the hoarding of money. But it is the bickering over money which brings a deal of the unhappiness in the world and the lack of it which brings out most of the suffering. And for all this the simple budget will bring relief.

"Win With Blakemore" is the slogan which hundreds of friends of Attorney E. P. Blakemore have chosen throughout Denver. With this slogan Attorney Blakemore's friends expect to "put him over" and thus have the race represented among the twelve representatives to be elected to the Twnty-third General Assembly of Colorado for Denver County. In advocating the election of Mr. Blakemore the colored citizens have decided that of the three candidates of the race who were designated at the Republican County Assembly last Monday, he is perhaps best fitted because of his training in a professional way. They urge, also, that Attorney Blakemore has had a splendid opportunity to come into personal contact with all the big men of the party and who doubtless may be persuaded to use their influence in getting white Republicans to vote for him. An analysis of the entire situation shows that there will probably be 30,000 Republican votes cast. Approximately, there will be only 2,000 votes cast by our people. As there will only be twelve persons elected, a large majority of the votes must come from the other race. Attorney Blakemore's friends declare that he will be in position to secure a greater number of votes of the Republicans among the other race than the other aspirants of our race because he is well known to many of the leading Republicans and during the course of his large practice in Denver has made many friends among the influential men and women of the party in the other race. Strength Shown Monday. As an evidence of this, Mr. Cofact that the delegates at the Cohim a much larger vote than wants of the race who has been weeks and who has been open newspapers. A large number of in the interest of this candidate this help and the assistance of the paper, he received only 167 votes less than was given one ority-one and a half votes less than although the latter had made no solely upon whatever strength a community. The showing made by Mr. there had been no particular effect of his friends to have him desire he is the logical candidate for get behind and support. Only be elected, if nominated, and be that the strongest race candidate As an evidence of this, Mr. Blakemore's friends point to the fact that the delegates at the County Assembly last Monday gave him a much larger vote than was given one of the other aspirants of the race who has been making an active candidacy for weeks and who has been openly supported by one of the local newspapers. A large number of workers have been in the field in the interest of this candidate for some time, but with all of this help and the assistance of columns of matter in this newspaper, he received only 167 votes. This was more than 100 votes less than was given one of the colored candidates and forty-one and a half votes less than Attorney Blakemore received, although the latter had made no canvass whatever and depended solely upon whatever strength he possessed as a citizen in the community. The showing made by Mr. Blakemore in the assembly when there had been no particular effort put forth upon the part of of his friends to have him designated, has convinced many that he is the logical candidate for every colored man and woman to get behind and support. Only one of the race candidates could be elected, if nominated, and because of that fact they declare that the strongest race candidate should be put forward. CAMPBELL A. M. E. CHURCH.

The master of ceremonies will be Mr. John Hardy. Soloist for the occasion being Miss Mabel Cole. The choir of the church will rended suitable choruses. This is the second call for a Solemn Assembly for the season, being an opportunity to wage an educational campaign for true citizenship. It is hoped that every citizen will be out to hear the treatise. Plans are being made and programs are being outlined for the fall work which will begin about the latter part of September and the first of October. These plans are, of course, somewhat of a tentative nature, depending somewhat upon conditions prevailing at the time or those that may arise shortly afterward and which at that time can be foreseen. The Sunday afternoon meetings will doubtless be held in Fern Hall, as they were last year, an occasional meeting being held outside in some Church. We have been favored during the last week by the presence of many of the numerous visitors who are in the city. These come from different states and sections of the country, the majority coming from Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and some from the far South.

They generally bring a word of greeting, and express themselves as being glad that a new building ispromised us in the near future. It is pleasant to have their greeting. Croquet games have been very numerous during the week. And while it cannot be said that many really star games have been played, many of them have been of a high and interesting character. A pleasant feature of the week's games has been the playing of many of the visitors now in the city, some of them putting up a really good game. The young boys, too, are playing well. The most of them know the rules and different points of the game quite as well as the grown-ups. Last Wednesday little Hoford living, the smallest player on the ground, challenged King to a game. The game was played on the boys' grounds, which are rather rough, and King found himself having to play hard to win out. He was surprised at the knowledge and dexterity of the "kid."

Desire to render the utmost service actuated The First National Bank of Denver when it expended more than one-quarter of a million dollars in decorating and equipping its present banking rooms. The work could not be duplicated today for double the cost. No bank in America that we know of possesses a more beautiful or spacious interior. The hurried customer who likes elbow-room finds it here. Plenty of wickets reduce waiting to a minimum; the immense lobby precludes congestion; convenient arrangement gives ready access to every officer and employee. Growing pains have marked this institution since the day it was born, over 55 years ago. At an additional cost of $175,000 we are now installing a safe deposit box department with a capacity of 12,000 boxes, which will easily rank as the most adequate and modern in the West. From ladies' rest room, finished in delicate gray, to ponderous vaults fashioned of battleship steel, every comfort and necessity for patron and employee known to banking is provided in our QUARTERS.

MORAL—ADVERTISE --- The American Legion (Copy for This Department Supplied by National Headquarters of the American Legion.) TAKEN UNDER LEGION'S WING More French Orphans Added to List to Receive Aid From Posts and Individuals. Adopted During Week Ending July 10, 1920: Sergt, Floyd C. Holub post, Milwaukee, WI. Star Post No. 127, Jamesburg, N. J....1 "Member" Milton Post, Milton, Mass.1 Previously Adopted .....5 Total Three more French war orphans have been taken under the Legion's wing by contributions of $75 each from two posts and an individual "member" of another, as listed above, who asked that his name be withheld. The anonymous donor, in his letter transmitting a check which will care for one of the fatherless waifs a year under the Legion plan, says he "would be glad to have the privilege of being an adopted father another year if necessary." The New Jersey post forwarded its contribution to the Legion's national treasurer, Robert H. Tyndall, through Thomas Goldingney, state adjutant, and expresses no preference as to the sex or age of its prospective protege. R. L. Jones, adjutant of the Milwaukee post, writes: "At the last meeting of the post, the membership unantimously decided to adopt a little French orphan and would prefer a little girl. I am instructed to request of you, if possible, the little girl's picture and also her name and address in order that we may keep in touch with her from time to time. "Luckily, there is a member of our post who is able to read and write French and therefore will have no trouble in corresponding with the little girl." Advices from France are that 3,000 children, the keenest sufferers in the after-the-war distresses of the country, are threatened with actual want. Many were once the wards of A. E. F. outfits. Posts of the Legion, or individual members or friends, may adopt a French war orphan for at least one year, contributing seventy-five dollars for the first year's support. The mascots assigned will be either orphans or the children of permanently disabled French veterans. All of the money contributed will go to the child. The Red Cross bears all expenses of administration. GIVES ACRE TO KANSAS POST President Elgin Chapter, Red Cross, Makes Valuable Donation in Heart of Oil Fields. An acre of ground at Elgin, Kan., donated by Mrs. Margaret Gunn, president of the Elgin chapter of the American Red Cross, to the Luther S. Hankinson post of the Legion, may prove an unusual asset and make the post the most independent, financially, of any in the Legion. The land is in the heart of the Kansas oil fields. Wells have shot up all around it, and by sinking a shaft near the clubhouse it may be that the lucky Legionnaires will find themselves in possession of something mighty similar to a gold mine. The post is the first one in Kansas to actually finance, build and equip its own clubhouse. It has only 135 THE NURSE MRS. MARGARET GUNN. members, but State Adjutant Frank E. Samuel corroborates its claim for a place on the Roll of Honor, Class A, since its members have enrolled all but two ex-service persons in the entire community. The clubhouse was built "barracks fashion," at a cost of only $5,000, and contains a kitchen, dining room, billiard, reading and writing room, a gymnasium and a dance hall. The post has a thriving unit of the women's auxiliary, many of the members of which donned the garb of Campfire girls and participated in the recent Decoration day ceremonies of the community. MILLER CID GOOD SERVICE Chairman of National Legislative Committee Who Has Resigned, Proved Value to Legion. The recently announced retirement of Thomas W. Miller of Delaware, as chairman of the National legislative committee of the American Legion, gives an opportunity of recounting the efforts by which one individual has done much to make the Legion what it is today. Mr. Miller served as chairman of the committee for a full year. It was under his direction that such generous results were obtained as the passage of the Sweet and Darrow bills for betterment of the condition of the disabled ex-service men, and such marked progress was made in placing so thoroughly before congress the claims of all ex-service men for just compensation. All during last summer and autumn Mr. Miller handled alone all Legion legislative matters at Washing- G.V. Bueh THOMAS W. MILLER. ton, and before the Minneapolis convention he had succeeded in obtaining from congress an incorporation of the American Legion. In September he was joined by the other members of the legislative committee provided for by the convention. Because of the pressure of his private business, which is the reason for Mr. Miller's retirement from this highly important Legion post, he placed his resignation in the hands of Mr. D'Oller, the national commander, as early as last spring. At that time, however, he was prevailed upon to remain at his post until congress adjourned, because his committee was in the midst of its fight for legislation for the disabled and for congressional consideration of the four-fold optional plan of adjusted compensation. John Thomas Taylor of Washington D. C., a member of the committee since November, has been appointed chairman to fill out Mr. Miller's unexpired term. Although Mr. Miller is only thirty-three years old, he has an unusual background of army service and experience in public life. He enlisted in the army as a private and came out of it a lieutenant colonel. Although he had attended the first Plattsburg school, he was unable to obtain admission to the first officers' training camp after war was declared because of a physical handicap. He was a first lieutenant before going overseas with the One Hundred and Fourteenth infantry of the Twenty-Ninth division with which he served in France. He first became consipuous in public life as the youngest member of the Sixty-Fourth congress, having been elected at the age of twenty-seven. Before that he had been secretary of the state of Delaware at twenty-six. HOT ON BERGDOLL'S TRAIL Effort Will Be Made to Have Alleged Slacker's Aero Pilot's Certificate Cancelled. Grover Cleveland Bergdoll, archslacker and fugitive from justice for whose apprehension rewards aggregating $5,056 have been offered, holds pilot certificate No. 169 in the Aero Club of America and representations for its cancellation will be made at once, it was announced at Legion national headquarters recently. The first intimation that Bergdoll held a license in the club was contained in a letter to Lemuel Bolles, national adjutant of the Legion, from Kenneth W. Haltz, a member of Frank Luke, Jr., post, American Legion, of Phoenix, Ariz. Mr. Bolles has written, in part, as follows: "I have no hesitancy in expressing my conviction that, as soon as the facts become public, there will be an overwhelming sentiment among Legion members and the public generally for the cancellation of Bergdoll's certificate with the least possible delay. Personally, I consider his retention of the certificate, under present circumstances, would constitute a grave insult to the memory of our herocic aviator comrades who gave their lives to uphold the honor of the flag which Bergdoll and his kind would delight in desecrating. "I trust national headquarters will be advised shortly Bergdoll's name has been stricken from the rolls of your estimable organization and that one more substantial black mark has been chalked up against this slackers name." WOMEN JOIN POLISH ARMY BATTALION OF WOMEN MARCH TO FRONT TO HELP SAVE WARSAW. REDS ARE REINFORCED POLES ARE MAKING DESPERATE STAND ON DEFENSES AROUND PULTUSK. Western Newspaper Union News Service. Warsaw, Aug. 13.—Warsaw was stirred when a battalion of women marched through the main streets on their way to the front to take up a share in the capital's defense. Each woman carried a rifle and ammunition. The women already have been under fire, participating in the defense of Vilma, where they suffered more than sixty casualties. A great battle is being fought in the vicinity of Pultusk about thirty-eight miles north of Warsaw, where the Bolshevists have launched a violent attack intended to oust the Poles from the town "at any price." Paris.—The situation at Warsaw continues critical. The Russian plan of an campaign of delivering successive blows at different points tends to disorganize the Polish defense, compelling the Polish staff to rush reserves to widely separated points. The Red northern forces have been heavily reinforced and pushed to within thirty miles of the capital. The Poles are making a desperate stand on defenses hastily thrown up around Pultusk, and, although badly equipped, half trained and not too well supplied with ammunition, they are holding their own, according to the latest news. But the issue still is in the balance. The operations of General Wrangel, anti-Bolshevist commander in South Russia, can do nothing to relieve the pressure on the Poles, according to French military opinion. Wrangel is marching out of the Crimea to find on the continent a means for feeding the refugees who followed his retreat last year. Warsaw.—Hundreds of conveyances of all descriptions loaded with barbed wire and driven by boys and old men are streaming through the Polish capital toward the battle front. Mingled with them are endless trains of supply wagons guarded by elderly civilians armed with rifles. All able-bodied men are being relieved from other duties so that they may be available in the fight for the defense of Warsaw. Women soldiers are acting as couriers and French military mission officers are showing extreme activity. As the fighting front draws nearer Warsaw squaws of citizens are drilling in many parts of the city. As the determined-looking groups pass through the treets many boys in knickerbockers, elderly men and well-to-do merchants are to be seen side by side with the more usual type of fighter. Newspaper accounts declare that the spirit of the people is to defend Warsaw, repel the invader and not to count the cost in blood. The government, while it will not concede that a date has been set for evacuation, is gradually moving away the important state documents. Nebraska Has Big Crop. Omaha, Neb.-Prediction that Nebraska will produce 214,964,000 bushels of corn this year, an increase of 30,778,000 over 1919, was made in the August crop report issued by the United States Bureau of Crop Estimates and the State Department of Agriculture. Coffee Imports Increase. Washington.—Coffee imports for the fiscal year of 1920 increased more than 398,000,000 pounds over 1919, it was announced here. Between July 1, 1919, and July 1, 1920, the United States imported 1,414,228,163 pounds of coffee, valued at $310,701,872, compared with 1,016,029,274 pounds worth $143,089,619 in 1919. Paper Shortage Threatened. New York.—Many newspapers will have to suspend publication because production and shipment of print paper must cease, unless the Interstate Commerce Commission modifies its priority orders in allotting coal and wood cars, Philip T. Dodge, president of the International Paper Company, declared in a statement here. Oklahoma Has Gasoline Well. Tulsa, Okla.—A water well in the industrial section of Tulsa is gushing 60-gravity gasoline. For several days negro tenants have been pumping the product from the well and emptying it into the gutter, thinking kerosene had been poured into the well. Reds Outnumber Poles Washington. Polish forces defending Warsaw are outnumbered two and a half to one. Details as to the Bolshevist military organization place the ration strength of the soviet army at 350,000 men. The strength of the Poles has been estimated at 140,000. It is estimated that in rifle and saber strength alone, the soviet forces composing the army north of the Pripet river consist of 114,000 men. Bolshevist rifle and saber strength south of the river is placed at 48,000 men. TheCammelUndertakingCo. Our motto: Service, Efficiency and Modern Conditions throughout.

If more were eaten there would be less need of resorting to the doctor. place the greens in a sleeve or in cheesecloth. Blanch in live steam for 15 minutes. Remove the greens, place in a freshly scalded pan and cut into convenient lengths. Pack into hot jars which have been boiled 15 minutes and add boiling salt water, using one tablespoonful salt to one quart water. When the various kinds of greens are young, tender and at their best, some should be canned for use during the winter. Of the wild greens the dandelion is the most common. Among the cultivated greens are Swiss chard, kale, Chinese cabbage leaves, French endive, cabbage sprouts, turnip tops, young tender New Zealand spinach, dandelion, young tender dasheen sprouts, native mustard, Russian mustard, collards and tender rape leaves. All possess iron and other needed mineral substances, and are nearly as delicious when canned as when fresh.

The lessened buying power of the dollar has made her think and avoid all kinds of waste. The family must be kept well nourished, but the wife and mother should not provide more food than is needed. She must know what kind of food will fill her market basket to the best advantage. Along with this knowledge is that of how much of the family food should come from each food group and how far it is wise to save money by using more food from the less expensive groups. The housewife of today is keeping a food account and checks up her weekly buying by the plan she has made. If she wishes to try to lessen prices for everybody here are some of the ways she is going at it. By producing food at home; by using local products; by choosing food that is plentiful in the markets; by lessening her use of such foods as are scarce; by co-operative buying; and by using the parcel post. VARIETY NEEDED IN BREADS More Important When Lunch Must Be Carried Than at Other Meals to Avoid Monotony. Variety in breads is more important when the lunch must be carried than at other meals because of the danger of monotony. Wheat bread, whole-wheat bread, corn, rye or oatmeal breads; nut, raisin and date breads; beaten biscuit, crisp baking powder biscuit or soda biscuit, and toast, zwieback, and crackers may be used in turn to give variety. MAKE OVER CLOTHES NEEDED Careful Selection of Things Wardrobe Should Contain Is Involved in Planning Wardrobe. Make over only things that are needed and suited for immediate use. This involves planning the wardrobe, and making a careful selection of the things it should contain. A made-over dress that does not harmonize with the cont and hat that must be worn with it represents a sad bit of misdirected energy. place the greens in a sleeve or in cheesecloth. Blanch in live steam for 15 minutes. Remove the greens, place in a freshly scalded pan and cut into convenient lengths. Pack into hot jars which have been boiled 15 minutes and add boiling salt water, using one tablespoonful salt to one quart water. Put boiled rubbers on the jars, then the boiled tops and partially seal the jars. If a steam-pressure cooker is used, process for 40 minutes under ten-pound pressure. If a hot-water bath canner is used, place the jars on a false bottom in a commercial canner or a washboiler with sufficient water to cover. Process for three hours, timing after the water starts to boil. Remove and seal tight immediately. Cool in a place free from drafts, test for leaks and store in a cool, dry place. The addition of a small amount of vinegar to vegetables which are being canned apparently tends to increase their keeping qualities. Not enough is added, however, to be very noticeable to most people. CLUB GIRLS TAUGHT TO PREPARE SUPPER CLUB GIRLS TAUGHT TO PREPARE SUPPER Each Member Is Assigned Certain Part of the Meal. Constructive Criticism Found to Be Valuable in Making Each Repast a Little Bit Better Than the Preceding One. To make sure that the girls in the home-making clubs, supervised by the United States department of agriculture and the Connecticut State Agricultural college, are able to put to practical use what they have learned in the clubs about buying, cooking and serving food, their leaders have organized "supper clubs." These clubs meet twice a month at the local leader's home. At the first meeting of the month a well-balanced meal is planned with the help of the leader. Each girl is assigned a certain part of the meal, for which she is responsible. At the second meeting she brings the material and prepares, cooks and serves her part of the supper. Adults are asked to these suppers, and the invitations are highly prized. The usual menu consists of meat, potatoes, one vegetable, hot bread, sometimes salad, dessert, and a hot drink. So far the average cost per person served has been 24 to 26 cents. After the meal the club girls meet in a group and discuss and criticize the various articles on the menu and the serving. This constructive criticism has been found to be very valuable in making each supper a little better in every way than the preceding one. GROUP UTENSILS IN KITCHEN Equipment Should Be So Arranged That Everything is Handy—Put Small Things on Hooks. Group your utensils so that you can reach them easily. Put those most frequently used in the most convenient places. Small ones may be hung on little hooks fastened to the wall or the edge of a shelf. All Around the House Margarine contains nearly as much food value as butter. Salt and soda is excellent for bee stings and spider bites. Cooked dried apricots served with mayonnaise and grated cheese make a delicious salad. Old linen dresses can be ripped apart and the best sections made up into doilies and table linens. Starch the ironing board cover and it will keep clean longer, the clothes will slip over it more easily, making it a real pleasure to iron. THE KITCHEN CABINET Then find no fault with the sunshine; God made the world bright to be. He hath made a leaf-shelter for every bird And a songbird for every tree. But into the human heart the law Coneth for bitter or sweet; The measure which thou to the world deth give Such measure the, world will mete. -Julla Carney. SEASONABLE SUGGESTIONS. While fresh berries are in abundance It is timely to can some for winter use for shortcakes and puddings. Crush the fruit, such as raspberries, blackberries or any small fruit, until smooth then add equal measure of sugar. Let stand puddles. Crush the fruit, such as raspberries, blackberries or any small fruit, until smooth then add equal measure of sugar. Let stand several hours in a cool place, then can in jars which have been well sterilized and place, covers on, in a cool place or on ice to cool. Fill the jars and seal, place on the cement floor of the fruit closet or in the back part of the ice chest if roomy enough to accommodate a half dozen jars. Such fruit will be rich and just as fresh as when canned. Rhubarb and Raspberry Conserve. A most delicious conserve using two parts rhubarb and one part raspberries with equal weights of sugar, all cooked until thick. Any fruit such as strawberries, cherries or blackberries may be used in the same proportion. When one has plenty of pieplant and few berries this method is especially recommended, as the pieplant is usually plentiful and cheap, while the berries are more costly. The product seems to be so largely the berries in flavor that the rhubarb only adds in bulk. Rhubarb Conserve. — Take five pounds of sugar, five pounds of rhubarb, four oranges, two pounds of ralsins. Boll the orange skins until tender, discard the water. Grind the skins and fruit and cook all together until thick. Strawberry Preserves.—Take two pints of sugar, one small cupful of water, boil until it hairs. Add three pints of berries and boil 15 minutes; pour into an carthen crock and let stand over night. Can cold the next morning. Cherries may be preserved the same way. If allowed to set in the sun for a day, covered with glass, they will be rich in color as well as good in flavor. There is no playing fast or loose with the truth, in any game, without growing the worse for it.—Dickens. DRINKS AND FROZEN DAINTIES. During the warm weather there is nothing so gratifying as a glass of iceed fruit drink, of which there are innumerable varieties. COFFEE Mint Juile.—Make a sirup by boiling one quart of water with two cupfuls of sugar 20 minutes. Wash and separate 12 sprigs of mint in pieces and cover with one and one-half cupfuls of boiling water, cover and let stand in a warm place five minutes, strain and add to the sirup. Add two cupfuls of orange juice, one cupful of strawberry juice, the juice of eight lemons. Pour into a punch bowl and just before serving add one pint of charged water with the ice and more chilled water. Serve with fresh mint leaves and whole strawberries. Cherry Frappe.—Take the juice from a quart can of white cherries; add a pint bottle of apollinaris water and sugar to taste. Strain and freeze as usual. Orange Frappe.—Boll two cupfuls of water twenty minutes; add the grated rind of one orange and pour it over two cupfuls of blood orange juice; add the juice of one lemon, strain, cool and freeze as directed. Raspberry and Strawberry Sherbet. —Take one pint of berry juice one-half of each kind, or unmixed; one pint of sugar, one pint of water the juice of two lemons, one teaspoonful of gelatin. Soften the gelatin in a little water and add the other ingredients; when well mixed freeze as usual. Preserved or canned fruit may be used, adding one cupful of sugar to a pint of fruit and one quart of water. Frozen Apricots.—Put one can of apricots through a steve; add one pint of sugar and one quart of water; stir and when the sugar is dissolved freeze. When partly frozen add one pint of whipped cream and a quarter of a teaspoon 'ul of salt. For ordinary creams use one part of salt to three parts of finely pounded ice. Use a basin; add three measures of ice in the bottom, then one measure of salt; repeat until the ice comes up well around the freezer. Turn slowly at first, then faster until: it is well frozen. ROAD LAW EASY TO LEARN. Highway law is not hard to understand. It is universally recognized as the clearest expressed and the simplest system of law on our statute books. It speaks, not in terms of dead phrasing, but in simple, direct, forceful language, any motorist who cares to do so can ascertain his legal rights and liabilities in his state in 15 minutes' reading, and he won't need an attorney to interpret it for him, either.—Chesla C. Sherlock in Motor. Remove the puddle, put a cork in the freezer and cover well with ice and salt. Le' stand three hours to ripen. "Upon a crutch—her girlish face Alight with love and tender grace— Laughing she limps from place to place Upon a crutch. And you and I who journey through A rose-leaf world of dawn and dew, We cry to heaven overmuch. We rail and frown at fate, while she And many more in agony Are brave and patient, strong and true. Upon a crutch." SAUCES FOR FISH AND MEATS. The sauce of average thickness which is the most commonly used allows two tablespoonfuls each of flour and butter with one cupful of liquid, whether milk, stock or tomato. 鱼 An appropriate sauce to accompany a dish makes a plain dish out of the ordinary. The cook who serves tasty sauces always has on hand materials for making such sauces as white, brown, tonnato and Bechamel, and with these as a foundation is able to make sauces innumerable. For a brown sauce a slightly larger quantity of flour is used to thicken as thickness is lessened by browning the flour, the starch being dextrinized. A brown sauce is made by browning the flour and butter well before adding the liquid. Bechamel Sauce.—Cook one and one-half cupfuls of white stock (which is broth from chicken or a combination of veal and beef) with one slice each of carrot and onion, a bay leaf, six peppercorns and a sprig of parsley, then strain. There should be a cupful. Melt one-fourth of a cupful of butter, add one-fourth of a cupful of flour and gradually add the stock and one cupful of milk. Tomato Sauce.—Take one-half can of tomatoes, two teaspoonfuls of sugar, eight peppercorns, a bit of bay leaf, and salt. Cook twenty minutes, rub through a sieve and add one cupful of brown stock and four tablespoonfuls each of browned flour and butter cooked together. Gradually add the hot liquid. To serve with fish the following is a most pleasing sauce: Sauce Piquante.—To one cupful of brown sauce add one tablespoonful of vinegar, one-half small chopped onion, one tablespoonful each of chopped capers and pickle with a dash of cayenne. The lightest care, while yet concealed, Lies like a mountain on the breast; The heaviest grief, when once revealed, Is hulled by sympathy to rest. -Marion Rand. WHAT TO EAT IN HOT WEATHER. Fruit in various forms is especially good for warm weather. The salts. acids and mineral matter are cooling to the blood. A well chilled melon peach or pear, a dish of berries or a well-ripened banana are usual. eral matter are cooling to the blood. A well-chilled melon, peach or pear, a dish of berries or a well-ripened banana are usually, some of them, obtainable when oranges and grapefruit are not plentiful. Gelatin dishes may be prepared in such variety that one need not tire of them. Combined with fruit juices and served with cream they are both filling and nourishing. Sea moss is another form of gelatin which is being brought back to its old place in favor. A cupful well packed will thicken a quart of liquid. The value of any such gelatinous substance as food is that it saves more expensive proteins. They should not be given with the idea of furnishing much nutriment, however, unless with them is served a custard or rich sauce. Salmon With Rice.—Line a buttered mold with cold, boiled rice, fill the center with creamed salmon, cover with more rice, put the cover on the mold and steam one-half hour. Serve with a cream sauce which may be seasoned with lemon juice, curry, or minced parsley. A most delicious white sauce may be made by using sour cream; then the lemon juice may be omitted. Curry of Lamb.—Put into a saucepan three tablespoonfuls of butter and half an onion cut fine. Cook slowly until the onion is brown. Add two tablespoonfuls of flour and a teaspoonful of curry; cook until smooth. Add two cupfuls of stock and cook for five minutes. Season with salt, pepper, strain over slices of cold roast lamb and serve in a deep platter with a border of rice. Deviled Kidneys.—Broil the kidneys, and when half cooked score them with a knife and in the cuts put a little mustard, paprika and salt and finish broiling. Place on small squares of toast well buttered and keep hot. Make a sauce of melted butter, lemon juice and chopped parsley and pour over the kidneys. Nellie Maxwell NINE POINTS OF THE LAW. It has been said that success in litigation requires a good deal of patience, a good deal of money, a good cause, a good lawyer, a good counsel, good witnesses, a good jury, a good judge, and, last but not least, good luck. But the saying is really a part of the proverb which says that "possession is nine points of the law." and that anybody is welcome to the tenth if they can get anything out of it. A. HASER, Prop.

Unlimited color ranges are at their dsposal and many materials of fine texture and fascinating luster. The creator of the handsome afternoon frock shown at the left of the picture above has chosen satin, velled with chiffon, for a lovely effort and has taken embroidered bands and ribbon as aids in making an ideal dress for dinner or any other formal wear. If you will imagine it in sapphire blue, a certain brown shades or in black, you will appreciate its elegance. As for its outlines they could not be more simple, but they are graceful and it is in the decoration that the designer has manifested his art and much individuality. The bands of embroidered net are a revival and are set in the chiffon, allowing the luster of satin to reveal itself from underneath. Long loops of satin ribbon take up this love and add additional sheen and a SKIRTS REPEAT SIDE plaits, knife plaits, box plaits and, occasionally, accordion plaits reiterate an appreciation of plaits in separate skirts that is going to carry over into the fall season. For already manufacturers are making capital of this vogue for plaitings and using it to enable them to introduce new features in skirt models. Whether the fabric be plain or striped or plaid, sheer of heavy, it brings grist to the mill of the skirt designer. In striped materials where a light and a dark stripe alternate, the light stripe is turned under either the side or box plaits and often these plaits are stitched down to the swell of the hipline and pressed very thoroughly below it. A skirt of this kind, when hanging straight, appears in the dark color, but moving about glimpses the eighter color in a very interesting way. --- narrow girdle is made of this ribbon, fastening at the front with a long embroidered ornament. The finish of the sleeves with a band of ribbon appears to be one of the coming season's style points. Another is the hat of fine hakele dripping from a small turban shape. The evening gown at the right avails itself of lighter color and is more glowing by this means. It is as simple in outline as its companion but gathers interest by adopting somewhat intricate draping. The skirt follows the harem inspiration, caught under at the bottom and remotely suggesting Turkish rousers. Nothing but the satin is called upon to contribute charm to this gown except a long spray of roses and foliage which are posed against it, repeating the pale rose tint in many delightful shadings. A lovely cream colored hat covered with lace bears a mass of soft uncurled ostrich, to crown this satin splendor in the right way. A PLAITED MODE Two very practical plaited models in wool are among the early showings for fall and are illustrated here. There are tailored skirts that will interest the woman who is looking for practical clothes that are attractive as well. The pictures tell so plainly the story of these new models that nothing need be written of them. The plaits are steamed and pressed in the fabrics and are there to stay. A few bone buttons embellish the skirt at the left, set over its side fastening, and a new feature in the other skirt appears in three straps with pointed ends finished with machine stitching which appear at the sides.
