NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE AT PHILADELPHIA
Dr. Robert R. Moton, President, Delivers Notable Address
VOL. XXVI.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug. 20.—Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tus-
keegee Institute, was re-elected president of the National Negro Business League amid cheers and a most wonderful outburst of enthusiasm at the Friday morning session held in the Academy of Music. Wednesday evening Dr. Moton delivered his annual address which attracted keen attention and intense interest from all in attendance.
Outstanding Statements from the Address of Dr. Moton.
It is now twenty-one years since the wisdom and foresight of one of the world's most useful as well as most distinguished citizens brought the National Negro Business League into being. The inspiration that has been received by Negroes, high and low, as a result of this movement and the confidence that has been inspired in the business capacity of the Negro race, and the high service that has been rendered to human welfare in general, cannot be accurately recounted, but must be left to time and succeeding generations to fully comprehend.
Organizations and enpires are everywhere passing through a sort of revolution and evolution that is almost bewildering to think about. The world has changed as much in the past four years as in the previous thirty or even fifty years. And in spite of many indications to the contrary, world progress has advanced by at least a generation; and along every line of human endeavor the Negro has kept abreast of this advancement. In the face of this fact the Negroes of this country have never needed as much as they do today a strong, wise, progressive business organization.
I believe thoroughly as every one knows, in education—in all phases of education. I believe as well in all the learned and useful professions. But somehow, I feel that the Negro, like the rest of mankind, must learn to work out more of his problems glong business lines than he has in the past; he must learn, as other races have learned, that a great deal of the so-called race problem can and must be worked out at six per cent.
Speaking of the influence of the colored newspapers, Dr. Moton said:
"They have worked against great odds with the greatest handicap and, I sometimes fear, the least appreciation. We must stand behind them and strengthen them with subscriptions, advertisements and support. There should be at least one Negro newspaper in every Negro home of this country. Without such public support, our newspapers cannot expand or render the service that we expect of them. Besides subscriptions, Negro business must advertise in Negro papers. Advertising makes business, both for the advertiser and for the newspaper. The benefits are mutual; the co-operation should be mutual. Negro newspapers have given most loyal support to the Government in all its publicity work in connection with the war program, and from a purely commercial angle, they have demonstrated that they can carry a message in an effective way to the twelve million Negroes of this country.
The chances for business success in Mississippi are as good as they are in Philadelphia. Mr. Banks succeeds in the banking business in Mississippi; Mr. Brown in Philadelphia and Mr. Anderson in Florida. Someone should succeed in establishing a bank in the great city of New York. Mr. Anderson,
with some combination of Negro bankers, I hope, will establish such an institution. Let us keep in mind always that business success, in the last analysis, is not conditioned upon color but rather upon character. Business as such comes very near being color blind, and will yield always a hearty response to proper management.
Yes, this is an organization to stimulate business, and this is very important and necessary as I have said again and again, but, friends, the biggest and most important business that the United States government has is to guarantee to its citizens life and liberty in the pursuit of happiness. Deep down in the hearts of practically every Negro, whatever his business success, whatever eminence he may have reached, whether farmer or professional man, and however much money he may have accumulated—deep down in the heart of hearts of the American Negro is the unquenchable desire for absolute justice and fairness; he wants for himself and for his race the liberty and justice which other Americans enjoy.
I am glad of the strong auxiliary organizations that are allies of this league, such as the Bankers' Association, the Undertakers' Association, the Bar Association, the Press Association, the Insurance Association and others. I hope there will be more. I wish we could affiliate with this league every worthy movement among the colored people in the Nation, in some associated capacity.
There is no group of people, from Congress down that would not listen to the representations of such an alliance of the various organizations of Negroes already existing in this country. Congress itself could not afford to turn a deaf ear to the appeals of so strong a movement. Such a movement with all its parts properly working together, would in a very short time secure the co-operation of all those forces necessary to stamp the disgraceful crime and curse of lynching out of our country forever. As a people or as an organization, we do not need always to think or feel or act in unison, but we can and should act in harmony when it comes to fundamental needs of the Negro people.
This league enters upon a new era of usefulness and power and our opportunities for service to our race and in the country and to the country are unlimited, if we keep our feet on the ground, and our heads level. And whatever the development of the future, I hope it will always remain a dignified, respected organization; that it will always stand for the highest and best in the race and in the country; that it will always throw the weight of its influence against all forms of wrong and injustice, and that it shall ask for the Negro not pity or privileges not enjoyed by other worthy American citizens; but it does ask and will continue to ask that Negroes to the same degree as others, shall share the blessings and privileges of American citizenship in every line of human endeavor—no more, and no less.
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 28 1920
HON. GREELEY W. WHITFORD, CANDIDATE FOR NOMINATION FOR JUSTICE OF THE STATE SUPREME COURT
[Image of a man in formal attire with a mustache and a serious expression].
A REAL JUDGE
A candidate for public office should stand for something. He represents the public in the transaction of public business. Too many are mere self-seekers, and once in office forget their party pledges.
When a public officer has kept the faith and discharged his duty, the public should not be forgetful.
Hon. Greeley W. Whitford belongs in the class of those who should be gratefully remembered by the people. No man in Denver has had a longer public experience or made a better public record. He is now a candidate for the Supreme Court, to be voted at the primaries to be held on September 14th, at which time the voters of all parties go to the poles and select their candidate to be voted on November 2nd.
Judge Whitford has been assistant city attorney of Denver, district attorney of Denver, United States district attorney, and judge of the district court of this county. He is now serving his second term as judge of this district.
With such a long experience, he is not only thoroughly informed in regard to the public business of the people of this city and state, but his long experience on the bench has made him familiar with the most important legal questions affecting the public interests.
No man that could be chosen has a wider knowledge, better training, or more comprehensive acquaintance with the law; and if elected to the Supreme Court he would take his seat thoroughly equipped by study, training and experience to fill the office with honor to himself and equal honor to the state.
Above all things Judge Whitford stands for law and order, without which all our property and personal rights are insecure. We must first have peace before we can do business; and without partisanship or prejudice Judge Whitford has upheld the law and made it honorable, to the infinite advantage for all of us.
Even his enemies are compelled to admit that he has been just and fair, although suffering punishment for their own misdoings.
Everybody respects a man who is a man, and a fearless judge, and although at times his judgments have been pronounced contrary to his own personal interests, he has been courageous enough to rise above such petty considerations, and administer the law as it was adopted by the people, without fear or favor.
No candidate deserves support at the primary elections better or more heartily than Judge Whitford.

JAMES E. GARRIGUES
Candidate for Nomination for
Justice of the Supreme
Court
James E. Garrigues, candidate for justice of the supreme court to succeed himself, is a native of Indiana. He was brought up on a farm in Dearborn county in that state, and spent his early life at farm labor, with three months' schooling in the winter. He was admitted to the bar in Iowa in 1877. He became a citizen of Colorado in 1883, locating at Greeley, in Weld county. His first public service was as district attorney of the Eighth district, in which office he distinguished himself by faithful service—always a prosecutor, never a persecutor. Subsequently he became district judge of the same district, which position he held until the close of the year 1910. In January, 1911, he became an associate justice of the supreme court, having been elected thereto at the general election of 1910. In January, 1919, he became chief justice, which position he now holds. In addition to sound legal learning and judicial temperament, he possesses rare executive ability, which enables him to dispose of court work rapidly. Since he has been chief justice the supreme court, which has been for years far behind in its work, was able lately to announce that it was up with its docket, and at the July adjournment, 1920, every case at issue was under consideration.
The record of his public service is without blemish, and one of which anyone might justly be proud. His friends believe that he is entitled to a second term upon the supreme bench, and that the loss of his wide and ripe experience would be a distinct loss to the state.
While always a sound Republican, and a good party man, he has never been a rabid partisan, nor has he ever permitted himself to be identified with any faction or machine. The substantial and qualifying majority which he received in the state assembly, without the aid of any machine and without any organized effort, was a voluntary tribute to his worth as a man and his ability and faithfulness as a public servant.
Personally, Judge Garrigues is a plain, unassuming, modest gentleman, who finds his pleasure in his work on the bench, and his happiness in his home.

"VOTES FOR WOMEN IN 1920" WINS
Washington and Tennessee Legislatures Ratify the Susan B. Anthony Amendment, Thus Giving the Necessary Thirty-Six States Out of Forty-Eight.
Victory Crowns Seventy Years of Persistent Struggle by Devoted Champions—Some Notable Features of the Long Fight for Equal Suffrage Through Amendment of National and State Constitutions—Some Names Made Immortal by the Contest.
Washington.—"Votes for women in 1920" wins. Washington and Tennessee have ratified the Susan B. Anthony amendment. This gives the 36 necessary states.
When Miss Anthony began talking in public of "woman's rights" she was derided and hissed by the men in her audiences as a "freak of nature." Undismaved, she carried the campaign
March 22 the legislatures of the states of Washington and Delaware met in special session, having been convened to pass upon the ratification of the Susan B. Anthony amendment to the Constitution—so called because it is the same form in which she drafted it in 1875, as follows:
"The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex."
Woman suffragists expected prompt ratification by Washington, and hoped to win in Delaware after a fight.
When these two legislatures met the facts of the ratification situation were as follows:
Ratification necessary by the legislatures of three-fourths of the 48 states of the Union.
Amendment ratified by 34 states, beginning with Wisconsin, June 10, 1919, and ending with West Virginia, March 10, 1920. Ohio ratification before the Supreme court.
Amendment defeated by six states between September 2, 1919, and February 17, 1920, as follows, in the order named: Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland.
Connecticut and Vermont have no regular session until 1921. Govs. Marcus H. Holcomb of Connecticut and Percival W. Clement of Vermont had refused to call special sessions.
Florida and Tennessee cannot vote in 1920 because of constitutional provision requiring election to intervene between submission of amendment and action on it.
Louisiana legislature was to meet in May: no hope of ratification.
North Carolina, scheduled to meet in special session in July. Gov. Thomas

W. Bickett had declared his intention of asking for ratification.
Washington ratified as expected, Delaware and Louisiana voted "no." Governors of Connecticut, Florida and Vermont refused to call special sessions. The Ohio ratification was upheld by the United States Supreme court. Under this decision Tennessee called a special session.
It is 70 years since the organized movement for woman suffrage was begun in the United States.
In 1848 Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton called a woman suffrage convention at Seneca Falls, N. Y. which launched a "Declaration of Sentiments" and passed a resolution demanding equal suffrage.
These are two immortal names in American history. Lucretia Coffin Mott (1793-1880) was born in Nantucket, Mass., of Quaker parents. After teaching, she became "an acknowledged minister" of the Friends. She married James Mott, who worked with his wife against slavery. Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) was born in Johnstown, N. Y. Her father was a justice of the state supreme court. She married in 1840 Henry B. Stanton, a journalist and antislavery speaker.
Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906) joined with Lucretia Mott and Elizabeth Cady Stanton in organizing the woman suffrage movement. She became in time the real leader of the movement; certainly she was its militant suffragist. Born in Adams, Mass., she came herself to "temperance" (the prohibition of those days) and to the abolition of slavery.
A LOVE STORY IN JAPAN.
What would the American reader think, having been brought by the author to that place where the hero's voice becomes soft and the heroine blushes and lowers her eyes, to see a row of asterisks indicating a foot-note, which says: "At this point he asked her to marry him." That is what the Japanese have done in the love scene in "John Hallifax, Gentleman," so that it might accord with their peculiar sense of delicacy—World Outlook.
When Miss Anthony began talking in public of "woman's rights" she was derided and hissed by the men in her audiences as a "freak of nature." Undismayed, she carried the campaign to congress and to the states. During the Civil war she demanded that women be given equal rights with the newly enfranchised negroes. The answer she got was: "This is the negro's hour." For several years after the Civil war Miss Anthony endeavored to secure an interpretation of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments which would allow women to vote. Finally, in 1872 at Rochester, N. Y., she tried to force an interpretation by voting at the polls. She was arrested and fined. She refused to pay the fine, but was not sent to fail.
In 1875 Miss Anthony drafted the amendment to the Constitution which has now been ratified. In 1878 the amendment was introduced in the senate by Senator Sargent of California. It was defeated in 1887 and thereafter was not even debated in congress until 1914.
During the years the constitutional amendment campaign was making no progress the women won many victories in the states. They secured full suffrage in Wyoming (1869), Colorado, Utah and Idaho (1894), Washington (1910), California (1911), Kansas, Arizona and Oregon (1912), Montana and Nevada (1914), New York (1917), Oklahoma, South Dakota and Michigan (1918). They won presidential suffrage in Illinois (1913), Nebraska, Rhode Island and North Dakota (1917), Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, Malne, Minnesota, Missouri and Tennessee (1919) and Kentucky (1920). Partial suffrage prevails in many of the states. In Illinois, for example, women vote for candidates for all offices not mentioned by the state constitution.
The National American Woman Suffrage association in 1912 opened headquarters in Washington and began an active campaign for the passage of the amendment. In 1916 it established branch headquarters there which were devoted entirely to the amendment campaign. The National Woman's party, organized in 1910 by Alice Paul, established Washington headquarters in 1913 and introduced the militant into the campaign.
Alice Paul—the third Quakeress to immortalize herself—is the spectacular figure of the struggle. She is a practical politician and developed the dendest card index on members of congress that practical politics has ever seen. Pretty soon she was serving notice through the White House pickets that the president was the "man higher up." The arrest of nearly 500 of these pickets and the imposition of jail sentences had no effect. Incidentally Miss Paul herself served seven terms in jail.
The amendment was beaten three times in the senate and once in the house before it was finally passed by the Sixty-sixth congress June 4, 1919, by the necessary two-thirds majority.
The resumption of woman suffrage work after the Civil war was marked by the organization in 1869 of two national organizations: National Woman Suffrage association, with Mrs. Stanton and Miss Anthony leaders and headquarters in New York; American Woman Suffrage association, with Mary A. Livermore, Julia Ward Howe and Lucy Stone leaders and headquarters in Boston. The line of division was this: The former wished to concentrate on the passage of a constitutional amendment; the latter was in favor of obtaining the suffrage through amendments to state constitutions. In 1890 the two organizations were united under the name of National American Woman Suffrage Association, and work was pushed along both lines of endeavor. Mrs. Stanton was president until 1892. Miss Anthony served until 1900, resigning at the age of eighty. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt was its head, 1900-1904. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, recently deceased and possibly best loved of all the leaders—a woman of transcendent gifts and eloquence—was president until 1915. Mrs. Catt was then again chosen. Mrs. Frank Leslie left a large legacy to Mrs. Catt to be used in the work.
The National association made arrangements at the St. Louis convention of 1919 to dissolve its organization and become the League of Women Voters. These arrangements became effective at the Chicago convention in February last.

DOMESTIC PREPAREDNESS.
THE OLD EXPRESSION, "In time of peace prepare for war," finds a sequel in the advice of "domestic preparedness." The coal men are advising us daily to put in our supply right now, as every indication points to increase in prices, and to be on the safe side for fall and winter, we had better take heed. The housewife with her anxious heart and rapidly working brain is suggesting to hubby to cut down on the smokes and theatrical performances and increase her allowance so that she can stock the larder as fast as the prices decrease in foodstuffs.
These are some of the advantages to be gained, and the people of Denver should not be slow in "making hay while the sun shines." The last moment idea has and will always bring great inconveniences and sufferings, and if we can adopt the suggestions and abide the warnings against extravagance, the entreaties for early purchase, and acquiring the necessities conducive to healthy and successful living, we will surely be equipped and become strong to meet other issues when presented to us.
Watch the market reports; follow the sale prices and commit them to memory—a recurrence of school days, and becoming a second nature, you will find yourself this year's end in a better position than last year. Seize this opportunity, and like the ant, store now and have everything ready for winter, and you'll not have the unfortunate experience of the cricket, who made gay in summer, and in his sportive role forgot King Winter, who came and found him unprepared, and then he chirped his last tune.
THE NATIONAL NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE.
THE national campaign seems to be getting in full swing already, while many of the states have yet to name their state tickets. Governor Cox is on the stump, and in his forceful, characteristic speeches he is striking right and left and apparently carrying the fight up to the Republicans. We notice that he is emulating in his political campaign the successful tactics of the Germans in their great military campaign during the first part of the great world war. As it was then with the Germans at that stage of the war, so it is now with the Democrats in this great campaign. Their only chance in winning the citadel lays in a BIG RUSH. If, by a big political rush, they can put the Republicans on the defensive, they feel that they have a winning chance.
That seems to be their hope and their only chance. They are maneuvering in every direction and making all kinds of wild charges to distract the attention of the people from the blunders of the present administration and its wilful waste of the public money and total inefficiency in the administration of the affairs of the country.
But with all that, we have a shrewd sentinel on guard in the person of Chairman Will Hays, who seems to be sufficiently prepared in political tactics to parry all the thrusts attempted by the enemy. He has flashed the signal down the line, "LET'S GO!" If there were any doubters in the ranks of the Republicans that one command was sufficient to wake them up and start them on their way. And with all this, we see the dignified and commanding figure of Senator Harding standing firm, with his feet squarely on the ground, calm and unmoved, POINTING THE WAY. Sure of his position, he speaks out from his home at Marion in reassuring tones and in language that is clear and plain and convincing.
He is there to meet every charge that is made and every false statement or accusation is squarely met and put asunder with his remarkable logic and eloquence. He is a seasoned and experienced campaigner and cannot easily be shaken or swayed from his position. They attempted to smoke him out of Marion, but failed. He had made up his mind to take his stand at Marion and there meet the attacks of the enemy, and he has stood his ground smilingly and confidently pointing the way. He has done well so far, and the country seems well satisfied with his plan of campaign which seems to point the way to success, so why should he chase after Governor Cox. So far as the West is concerned the campaign has not yet fully reached us, but by the first of October we will begin to hear the roar of the big guns out in the West. We believe Chairman Hays plans to make just as vigorous a campaign in the West as in the East, and that no state will be overlooked. It is important that a Republican Congress and Senate be elected to carry out the great constructive program of Senator Harding after he is elected President. Then, in the language of Chairman Hays, "Let's go!"
POINTING THE WAY.
conceived and organized by a fluential leader, Booker T. Washington. How well and wisely he built in that day was exemplified in the magnificent and representative annual convention of the league last week in the city of Philadelphia. Hundreds of Negro business men and women of our race there assembled, representing the Negro business world of the nation. They were there as bankers, merchants, tradesmen, doctors, lawyers, and almost every line and kind of business we might mention. These men and women represented the wealth, the culture and the brains of the race. What a brilliant idea by a wonderful, far-seeing and wise leader to bring into closer touch and relationship the Negro business world and organize it into one grand, powerful and influential organization.
The most remarkable thing about it is that it is neither a political or a secret organization—strictly business. Its mission is to stimulate a larger business growth among our people, and from the statistics afforded us, we can safely say that it has done more to cause our young men to enter business for themselves than any other agency. Dr. R. R. Moton, who succeeded Dr. Washington as president of Tuskegee Institute, also became the president of the Business League, and from his close acquaintance and long association with the founder, has closely followed out the ideas and principles upon which it was originally organized by Dr. Washington. Every business man, and, in fact, all of us would do well to read Dr. Moton's annual address. It is able and inspiring and full of meat for the man who contemplates a business career. This league is a school from which many young men and women are being graduated from menial service to a higher and more useful and dignified calling. There is nothing that tends to elevate a race more than upright business. There is nothing that will gain the respect and support of the dominant race quicker than a successful, substantial business.
As Dr. Moton well said in his notable address, "Let us keep in mind always that business success is not conditioned upon color, but rather upon character." There is one failing that is common among the Negro as a business man, viz., the same business too much. That is to say, if a colored man makes a success in a certain line of business, all of us grab the same idea and open up the same kind of business. Let us search the channels of commerce and enter into different and new lines of business and build them up in a successful and substantial way. It is encouraging to learn that more and more of our young business men are coming direct from the best business colleges and have obtained a good school education before starting into business. The better education a man has the more successful in business will he become, as a rule.
Dr. Moton dwell at length in his address upon the support that should properly be given to the colored press. He expressly emphasized an important fact when he admonished our colored business men that in advertising and subscribing to the colored press we increased our business. The press cannot support you unless you give it your aid. It is the most potent of all businesses and can and does render a more general and beneficial service than any other business. We hope that the day is not far distant when the Denver Colored Civic Association will be in a position to invite the National League to Denver.
Room for Much Better Understanding Between Americans and British.
By ROBERT A. GARDNER, Chicago, Amateur Golfer.
The uppermost subject in my mind since my return is the need of a much better understanding between the majority of the people in the two countries. No, I won't say that. Rather I will say a better understanding in each country of the other country. The British and Americans must stand close to one another and I firmly believe that they will. I know that there is a certain class over there that is anti-American, just as we have an anti-British class over here. But from what I saw over there that class is not composed of the thinking people in any sense of
The uppermost subject in my mind since my return is the need of a much better understanding between the majority of the people in the two countries. No, I won't say that. Rather I will say a better understanding in each country of the other country. The British and Americans must stand close to one another and I firmly believe that they will. I know that there is a certain class over there that is anti-American, just as we have an anti-British class over here. But from what I saw over there that class is not composed of the thinking people in any sense of the word, nor do I think that they are in control. From the very moment that we set foot on their soil they did everything in their power to make us feel that we were the guests of the nation. Everywhere we went we were entertained and made to feel at home—at Muirfield, St. Andrews and London.
The thing that made the strongest impression on me was their sportsmanship. It is apparent in their every act. Not only on the field of play but in their home life, and they even carry it to their business. The spirit of merciless competition that is everywhere on this side of the Atlantic is totally lacking over there. No matter what it costs them they always play fair. Not just for the sake of playing fair, but because it never seems to occur to them to act otherwise.
All the way through I met with the utmost cordiality and sportsmanship. And it occurred to me that this summer's invasion of our different athletes was doing a whole lot to clear up misconceptions between the two nations. They have created a country-wide interest in both the games and the Americans. I want to say again that I grew to have a very sincere feeling for the Englishman as I saw him in his own country. If I may be permitted, I will fall back on a bit of American slang, and say that I surely found them "regular guys."
The Jazz One of Direct Causes of Marital Discord and Divorce.
By DUQUE, Summer Palace, Paris, France.
Does a jazzing woman make a good wife or a jazzing man make a good husband? No! to both questions.
I look upon the jazz as one of the direct causes of the increasing tendency toward divorce and ruined marital happiness. No man or woman is normal after dancing to the music of a jazz orchestra for more than half an hour.
Not one temperament in a thousand can stand an afternoon of jazz and remain sane. Jazz music produces a fevered disorder of the brain leading to bad temper, slackness, lassitude and bad health.
These are the reasons the dancing craze in Europe is near its end. Husbands don't take their wives to dance because they find it inevitably means a raggedy temperament afterward. Mothers forbid their daughters to jazz because it leads to irresponsible actions.
The only hope for the dance is to abolish the jazz and bring back the old, healthy dances—the waltz, the polka, the tango and the maxixe. These were beautiful dances because the music they were danced to was beautiful.
No one-step danced to jazz music can be anything but hideous.
"Suppose the United States Had Public Markets in All Its Big Cities."
Suppose the United States had public markets in all its big cities, as they have in Europe, where the farmer, the producer, the fisherman and the butcher daily bring goods and place them before the public, for the wholesaler, the retailer, or the consumer, if he is willing, to come early, buy for cash and take away his purchases. What a regulator we would have on the high cost of living in this country! But here our cities are getting so big and terminals and waterfronts so valuable that the small producer is being barred out.
Now I look forward to a great development from gasoline transportation both on land and sea, where the individual farmer or producer can by motor boat or by motor on the highways reach the consuming centers and sell his goods directly without paying middlemen or commissions or high tariffs or high taxes.
There should be not only public markets in every city and village but there should be ways of easily getting to them. There should be public landing places on the waterfronts and public markets at the waterfronts.
The Man Who Loves the Truth: You Have to Be Watchful to Find Him.
The Man Who Loves the Truth: You Have to Be Watchful to Find Him.
By LYNN HAROLD HOUGH, Retiring Pres't Northwestern University.
Once there was a man who wanted to see things as they are. He wanted to feel about things as they are. He looked at things with straight and candid eyes. He looked at people with unhesitating honesty. He looked at his own life with remorseless sincerity. He never told lies to himself, because he was afraid of deceiving himself more than he was afraid of anything else in all the world. He hated deception because the very thought of living in a world where you would be so confused that you could not distinguish truth from error filled him with fear.
He loved science because it dealt precisely with undeniable facts. He delighted in mathematics because accuracy was the soul of all its processes. He wanted to live in a world upon which he could depend and he began by being the sort of man upon whom other men could depend without fear of painful disillusionment. When men called him a true man, it was only because what he did expressed what he was.
There have been a good many of this man. You have to be watchful to find him. He never tells you about himself.

ASSAULTED
Tuesday night, Aug. 24 E. P. Blakemore was assaulted by a cowardly would-be assassin, who waylaid him in the dark in front of Lawyer Blakemore's residence at 2563 Downing street, and when he and family returned from a meeting about 10:30 p. m., this Harvey Page stepped up from the dark and on the running board of Lawyer Blakemore's car calling his attention to a remark the lawyer had made in court during the day in a controversy over a child belonging to a Mrs. Miller, and while the lawyer was looking off Page slugged Blakemore with a blackjack on the left cheek and ran towards Twenty-fifth avenue on Downing. A warrant was issued for the arrest of Page, who has not been found at this writing. He lives at 2301 Washington at Mrs. Das Mahra's residence.

C. A. PRENTICE-A short sketch of his life. He is a candidate for the Republican nomination for district attorney of the city and county of Denver at the primaries, Tuesday, September 14, 1920.
C. A. Prentice was born in Lawrence, Kan., May 29, 1870. Educated in the public schools and Kansas State University of that place, graduating in 1895 in the law department. His father was Dr. S. B. Prentice; came to Lawrence, 1865; Surgeon Gen, Jim Lane's Kansas Border army. Lieut. colonel medical department, U. S. army, Civil war; chairman Lawrence board of safety; chairman board of examiners; surgeon, U. S. army, department of Missouri river; first president Missouri Valley Medical Society. His mother was Annie J. Soule Prentice, whose father was with Col. Dow, head of the Underground railway in the later fifties; cousin of Wm. Lloyd Garrison, and a noted abolition leader. My grandfather was a Republican member-elect to the first Kansas Legislature; my uncle, Capt. Silas G. Soule, was provost marshal of Denver in 1865, where he was murdered while quelling a riot and disturbance at which is now Sixteenth and Arapahoe streets.
He believes in equal rights and opportunities for all men and women, and that all citizens are and should be equal under the law, irrespective of color or former nationality. The true test is always loyalty to country and obedience to its laws. His policy is to enforce the law impartially to punish the law violator and to protect all who obey the law with wisdom and conscientious honesty.
He numbered among his personal friends many of the leaders of the colored race, among whom were W. B. Townsend (now deceased) of Denver; also Joseph H. Stuart, also deceased, of Denver; B. K. Bruce, Jr., of Leavenworth, Kan. (superintendent of colored schools); Nelson Crews of Kansas City, formerly city clerk; Dr. Harvey, Lawrence, Kan.; Geo. Gross, Denver, and the esteemed editor of The Colorado Statesman, and many others.
He served this city for two years as assistant city attorney under I. N. Stevens (now deceased), and has had twenty-five years of experience in the active practice of the law. He is a man of strong personality and a powerful trial lawyer, having made the record of trying upward of twenty damage suits for the city and county of Denver, with but one case lost, and that for a small judgment, which was paid by the city without appeal. He is considered by many as the ablest public speaker in the state, and has always appeared in the public eye as a friend of the common people.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
The boys, realizing that the summer vacation is all but a thing of the past, are doing their best to get everything possible out of the few remaining days. Large groups of them gather each day for the various sports, and the rivalry between them is very keen. Some splendid croquet players have been developed, while the indoor games, such as checkers, dominoes and the like, have suffered. Last Friday evening Committeeman Ogelsvie Lawson led a large group in one of the most spirted indoor baseball games yet seen this summer. Of course, the game was played out of doors. For fully an hour the two sides vigorously contended with each other, there being not an idle minute during the entire time. The score was about 42 to 39 in favor of one side or the other.
We are still waiting to her from the Board of Directors with reference to building matters. The leaders of the board are still in Estes Park and elsewhere on their vacations, and will not return before the first of September.
The croquet fans are still at it in good fashion. The sport was given considerable impetus late last week by the coming of Mr. Chester Franklin from Kansas City. Franklin is one of the former champions of the old club who really first made the game popular in Denver. Although it had been seven years since he did any active playing, he still showed his cunning and skill with the mallet. Sims has apparently given up all hope of ever cutting down King's lead of 13 games, although he disclaims any feeling of fear on his part. On the other hand King and L. H. have all but despaired of gaining any advantage over the two younger Lightner brothers, and are doing all they can to keep from meeting them. Blakemore, Bennett, Wilson, Stripling, Bell, Mason and Redmond, all are fighting for championship honors, and it is a toss-up between them. The future days will settle all things.

Community Canning Kitchens Take Much Hot Work Out of the Home.
Little attention has been given in the past to farm-home problems, although the farm woman's work has as great economic importance and calls for as high a degree of skill and as wide a range of information and judgment as does the work of the farmer whose equipment and methods of farming have been the subject of many studies made by our agricultural institutions.
The data collected in a recent survey made by the United States department of agriculture and state agricultural colleges of 10,000 farm homes in 33 northern and western states are especially valuable for this reason and serve a dual purpose: First, with the introduction and development of the farm bureau idea, now nation-wide in its influence, promoting as it does a self-determined program of activities among the people for the economic and educational advancement of rural life, the farmer and his wife are destined to analyze their home problems more and more and to make use of the farm bureau organization and the extension service for the solving of those problems.
The farm is subsidiary to the home as is the home to the farm. Here men, women and children form a working unit, with common interests and alms, and the farm bureau dealing with this family unit and with community groups views home work not as isolated and detached from the farm but as one phase of the problems of the farmstend. Men and boys work primarily with production in the business of farming, and women and girls with utilization and conservation in the business of housekeeping; but all come together in a common interest and for a common goal—home-making. Farming and housekeeping are not ends in themselves, but necessary means to the realization of this goal.
Makes Farm Life Better.
Prosperity on the farm and efficiency in the house, in their last analysis, are only valuable as they make people better, wiser, and happier by creating and multiplying opportunities for richer and more satisfying home and community life. Hence all extension forces, the county agricultural agents, club agents, home demonstration agents, and specialists are working in their respective fields with this larger aim and purpose. This brings about constant interchange of effort and service. For example, the farm woman's interests and activities go beyond the threshold of her house; when necessary, into such work as poultry raising, beekeeping, and marketing of home products. In this she frequently has the help not only of the men folks at home but of the county agricultural agent, the club agent, and specialists from the college. She may also call upon these for advice and assistance in looking after the water supply and other phases of home improvement. Women extension workers also frequently go out of their special field of home economics work to give advice and assistance, thus expressing, it is believed, the true spirit of the Smith-Lever Act, which, drawn in broad language, refers equally to the service of the farm and home and includes all phases of work that affect wholesome farm life.
Women everywhere are welcoming the services of the home devotion agent much as farmers welcome the agricultural county agent. This trained home economics worker, employed on federal, state and local funds, and devoting all her time to the advancement of home efficiency, is studying with home-makers the needs of individual homes and communities and is thus able, by linking her technical skill with the practical knowledge and experience of the housewives, to co-operate in the accomplishment of large results by providing a channel through which the state agricultural college and the department of agriculture can deal directly with rural home-makers.
Increased moral and financial support of local communities during the present fiscal year, 1919-20, for the nearly 300 agents now employed has shown the belief of the people of the north and west in home demonstration work, and has placed it on a promising basis which looks toward its establishment eventually in every agricultural county in the north and west. A few instances are here given to show the methods used and results secured through the partnership of the housewife, the home demonstration agent, and the home-economics specialist in solving some of the live problems pointed out in this survey.
One Modernized Farm Home.
A large family lived in a small house on a prosperous farm; little thought had been given to the expenditure of any part of the farm
income for home convenience. One day the mother in this home mentioned to the home-demonstration agent that it was difficult to keep the kitchen in order when all members of the family used it as a place to "wash up." The agent suggested the possibility of a washroom with water piped into it. The farmer and his wife became interested. A carpenter was called in to make plans, and
fore he had finished his work a screened porch was added. The washroom later developed into a bathroom complete with modern fixtures. A few more timely remarks brought forth a new water front on the range and hot-water tank and sink in the kitchen. About this time there was an item in the farm-bureau column of the local paper regarding convenient kitchen arrangement. Following its suggestions, this home maker put blocks under her kitchen table to save bending when at work and moved the cupboard nearer the stove to lessen steps. Later a power washing machine was bought and a washhouse built. The milk separator was moved out of the kitchen into the washhouse. This home maker was so delighted with her transformed workshop that she called in the neighbors to see it, and as a result five more women rearranged their kitchens. Two put water in the house and three are now planning to purchase power washers.
MUTTON AND SUMMER SQUASH
Recipe Recommended by Home Economics Kitchen of Department of Agriculture.
Many people like a dish of mutton and summer squash in season. This recipe is recommended by the home economics kitchen of the United States department of agriculture:
2 pounds mutton 4 medium-sized potato from the shoulder toes.
or lb brast. ¼ teaspoon powder-
ion.
1 medium-sized ¼ teaspoon powder-
summer squash. ed marjoram.
1 sweet green peep. Bit of bay leaf.
per.
2 stalks celery. Salt.
or breast. % teaspoon powder
1 onion % dill-sized thyme.
1 summer squash. % powder
1 sweet green peper. % marjoram.
1 per. Garlic.
2 stalks celery. Salt.
Cut the meat into small cubes and place in a deep baking dish. Cook in a hot oven until well browned. Add the onion cut into cubes, the summer squash sliced, the sweet peppers and celery cut into small pieces, and the other seasonings. Sufficient flavor of garlic will be obtained by rubbing the dish with a clove of garlic or by adding a very thin slice from one of the cloves. Cover the dish and allow the vegetables to cook for an hour with the meat, without the addition of water. Then add the potatoes, cut into slices. Cover the dish again and cook for another hour.
DELICIOUS SWEET CURDS PIE
Just as Good as It Was When Grand mother Served It for Company —Whey Is Favorite.
One of the delicacies that our grand-mothers served when company came was sweet curds pie. It is just as good as it ever was, though served less often than in the olden days. The curd is obtained by adding rennet to warm milk and allowing the milk to stand until it hardens. The curd is then broken up and strained. To the curd from 1 quart of milk add 1 level tablespoonful of butter, one-fourth of a cupful of sugar, the yolks of 2 eggs, a few Zante currants or chopped ralsins, and a little nutmeg. Whey also was much used in earlier times, and is still a favorite beverage with many people. It is employed especially in diets for invalids.
Household Questions
Soap should never be applied directly to paint.
Lemon extract can be made at home from fresh lemon peel.
Men's worn shirts can be converted into excellent shirt waists.
* * * *
The gas oven should stand open a few minutes after being used.

Adjust sink and work table to the height most comfortable for the person who uses them.

Cocoa is very much improved in flavor if a pinch of salt is added in the making of it.

na is the popular breakfast fruit because of its lack of acid in its composition. To combine with cooked or uncooked breakfast foods it is held in high esteem. Bananas for serving uncooked, should be well ripened to be whole, some, especially for children. Moulded Cereal with Bananas. Turn any leftover cereal into cups rinsed with cold water, half filling the cups. When cold, scoop out the centers and fill the open spaces with sliced bananas; turn into a buttered pan, fruit side down and set into a hot oven to become very hot. Remove with a cake turner to the cereal dishes and serve with sugar and cream.

Banana Croquettes.—Remove the skin and coarse threads from five bananas, cut the banana in halves, trimming the ends; brush with beaten egg which has been mixed with a table-spoonful of water, then roll in crumbs and fry in deep fat. Serve with lamb chops or with roast lamb. Currant jelly sauce may be served with them prepared as follows:
Melt half a glass of jelly in a scant cup of boiling water, add half a cupful of sugar, and a teaspoonful of corn starch mixed with a little cold water, let cook five minutes, then add a tablespoonful of butter and a teaspoonful of lemon juice.
Bananas With Cherries.—Stew a pint of cherries with five or six of the meats from the stones, add water to the juice to make a cupful; sweeten to taste, add a tablespoonful of lemon juice and set aside to cool. Pour over sliced bananas and serve. Other fruits like strawberries, currants and pinnapple may be used. Serve with sponge cake as a dessert.

Braised New Cabbage.—Melt one-fourth cupful of sweet fat in a saucepan, add two green apples and two onions finely chopped; cook gently for three minutes, then turn in one good sized cabbage, shredded, three cloves, one-half cupful of vinegar, one tablespoonful of salt, one-fourth teaspoonful of pepper. Cover tightly and simmer for two and one-half hours.
Coconut Sponge.—Scant half an envelope of granulated gelatin in one-fourth of a cupful of cold water. Make a custard of two cupfuls of milk, three eggs, one-third of a cupful of sugar; cook until smooth and thick, remove from the heat and add the gelatin. When the mixture begins to set add one cupful of shredded coconut, a few grains of salt and a teaspoonful of vanilla. Use just the yolks in the custard, beat the whites stiff and fold in at the last. Line a mold with sections of orange, pour in and chill.
Corn Custards.—Mix one cupful of grated corn with three slightly beaten eggs; add one and one-half cupfuls of milk, one-half teaspoonful of salt, a teaspoonful of onion juice and a few dashes of paprika. Put into small molds and steam, covered with greased paper. After 20 minutes remove and serve with white or tomato sauce.

THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY
5
FASHION shows are abroad in the land and those in the large cities are repeated on the screen everywhere, so that she who runs—to the movies—may read the story of fall styles. By these means we have a chance to compare the efforts of American producers of women's apparel with early imports and with photographs of French productions that have not actually reached us. If we start out by conceding the French to be masters, we must conclude that Americans are the most apt and progressive of pupils. The admirable features in French gowns are present and quite as admirably managed in those of American manufacture and an independence of ideas has rejected whatever is not suited to us. It is the part of wisdom to borrow that which is beautiful and characteristic in the dress of other nations.
New Silk Gowns
TWO afternoon frocks of widely different styles, but both employing taffeta and lace in combination, present themselves together in the picture above and invite comparison. One of them, with frivolity aforethought, is a fussy little affair of silk and cream-colored lace that has appropriated apron drapery at the front and pannier effect at the sides, elaborating both these simple and quaint ideas until they are hardly to be recognized. It has a plain straight underskirt which does its useful part as a foundation for eccentric drapery. The bodice is smooth fitting and extended over the waistline where it is wrinkled in the semblance of a girdle. Elbow sleeves, ending in frothy puffs of lace and a square neck, also finished with a lace puff, are in keeping with the pannier silhouette which gives this ray dress its character.
Not a detail of the costume but what plays its part to sustain the style of the frock. Such a costume will re-enforce the personality of light-hearted youth and make the gravest of young persons look gay. There are
The frock shown at the left of the two pictured here may have come to us by way of France but it started in Russia. An underskirt of black satin, with large overlapping rings embroidered around it, is glimpsed below an overskirt of blue serge joined to a blouse. Both open at the left side and reveal the satin from shoulder to hem with smaller embroidered rings as a decoration. Tasseis fall along each side of the opening and there is a long narrow sash of the serge.
Long waistlines and full skirts are predicted for fall and these are set forth very attractively in the dress at the right. In this frock a semi-fitted bodice is joined to a long tunic and opens over a vest of net and lace. A border of satin at the bottom of the tunic is cut in points. There is a collar of brocaded satin and cuffs of it finish the sleeves.
s, Gay or Sedate
many colors in which this frock can be successfully developed, but, in any case, it is intended for a youthful wearer. The other dress of black taffeta and black lace has a long tunic of lace banded with taffeta that hangs full and straight over the underskirt. It has a Quaker bodice with wide silk fichu and a girdle of taffeta tied in a bow at the back. The sleeves are hardly elbow length. Perhaps the wearer is one of those fortunate young women who possess pretty elbows. This frock is one of the new models for fall, youthful and demure looking, and it would be just as alluring made in a color with lace dyed to match the silk.
