LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Colored Women Register Vote in Behalf of G.O.P. Anita Patti Brown Speaks in Favor of Harding on Her Concert Tour VOL. XXVI. Colored W Register Behalf Anita Patti Brown Speaks in Concer CHICAGO, Sept. 23.—Great interest is being manifested by colored women in the campaign. They are displaying a fine intelligence of the issues and are apt to adopt the most approved methods of organization to the end that their vote may have a telling effect. It has been a source of general surprise the remarkable intelligence the average colored woman has shown for the points of contention. They enter into every phase of the current discussions, and display every indication of having followed the trend of politics through the years of their fight for suffrage. Occasionally a colored man might find his way into the Democratic party, but there is yet to be discovered an active colored woman Democrat. Colored women are all Republicans and it is a matter of general congratulation. Mrs. Anita Patti Brown, famous singer and ardent supporter of the candidacy of Senator Harding, sees very clearly from the colored woman's point of view. Mrs. Brown travels extensively with her concerts and has delighted audiences throughout the country, and is a great favorite among the women of the race. "Since we have arrived at our new estate and have full rights with the men we are firmly resolved to serve our race by voting the Republican ticket," said Mrs. Brown. "Wherever I have appeared there is an earnest interest in the election and the women have a full understanding of what is required of them. Of course, in many instances, the simple matter of method in voting is not so thoroughly understood among our women, but there is no doubting that the desire of colored women is to vote for Harding and by so doing help the race. There may be some doubts in the minds of the men but you may be sure that there are none abiding with the women. All through the border states the women have been waiting for this great boon to show their loyalty to the party that has always been loyal to them. "The fact that the Democrats denied the privilege to colored nurses of nursing our colored wounded soldiers in France is a standing grievance that will not soon be forgotten. We all did our bit in the war, all of us, from the leaders of our women folks to the humblest washerwoman. We bought Liberty bonds, worked in every capacity that was opened to us, and no one could cast any reflections upon our loyalty, but our girls were not permitted to nurse their own brothers and sweethearts in France, it mattered not what their qualifications were. "It is not only the colored men who have a grievance against the Democratic administration, but the women as well. The malicious segregation that is undertaken in the government offices at Washington is a disgrace to the country and a humiliation to our people. Colored parents educate their State Hist. & Nat Hist Soc State House daughters and when they go into the civil service examinations and win appointments, the Democrats refuse them the positions that they have honestly won on account of their color." THE NEW EMANCIPATION. The address of the Republican candidate to the large delegation of Colored citizens that recently made a pilgrimage to Marion in pledge of their support of the Republican ticket, is a powerful stimulus to the patient faith and heroic courage of this loyal group of long-suffering Americans. It was a plain unvarnished pledge, made by a fearless and broad-minded statesman who proclaims his adherence to the principles of truth and justice for all men, as his highest duty, and has no concern for the howling dogs of prejudice or the milk and water expedients of pussy-foot friendliness. The Negro is not without a vast amount of experience in the matter of promises, but has little reason to hug himself on the blessings of performance. Such few as have come to him are the mile-stones of his progress and accomplishment and have each and every one, been hewn in the rough, from the quarry of beneficent Republican principles and clearly mark the road from Bandage towards the City of Equal Rights. Emancipation, the corner stone of this great highway, was set with the sweat and blood of Lincoln, the Martyr; while Civil Rights, designed and placed by Sumner and immeasurably sustained and strengthened by Roosevelt, is given a worthy companion in Harding's New Emancipation Milestone on which is inscribed: "Fear not; here upon this beloved soil you shall have that justice that every man and woman of us knows would have been prayed for by Abraham Lincoln." Negro Americans may be depended upon to see to it that this New Emancipation is adopted as their Siboleth that it may take on the force of Procin the November battle of ballots so lamination on the ensuing Fourth of March. ARREST LAWYER ON ALLEGED FRAUD CHARGE Wichita, Kan., Sept. 17.—According to information given out by court house officials, Attorney James Spears, with offices on North Main street, was placed under arrest by Sheriff Frank Kelly of Newton and taken to that city to answer a charge of fraud. It is alleged that Attorney Spears collected $425 from parties there for which no services had been rendered. (By Jonathan Cover) BLE PEOPLE'S PA ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, SA DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25 1920 SOME INSIDE LIGHTS ABOUT THE M'RARY TROUBLE One of Which May Be Traced to the Illicit Relations So Prevalent in the South. DEFENDANT IS A RICH MAN New York, Sept. 14.—In Lexington, N. C., the white man entered suit for $100,000 against the colored man who "stole" the love of the white man's wife, according to the press. But the press did not tell all. Some of the most enlightening details were left out. People of experience and world- ly wisdom will be interested in these details. 1. In reality McRary, the lov- stealer, is a white person with some colored blood. His mother was col- ored, but he was acknowledged and brought up by his white father and white aunts, and inherited their money. As a child he slept in the bed of Thank You Thank You Once More Re-Elect YOUR WILLIAM Re-Elect YOUR Representative WILLIAM N. VAILE his paternal aunt. He has now two white half-sisters in Lexington, who acknowledge him. 2. The white man who is suing McRary had often invited him to his house as a guest to meals. It was nothing astonishing or unexpected to see him at that white man's house. 3. McRary has money. He "owns the town," and backs most of the white business enterprises. 4. And what is more important still, he just about "owns" this white man and has backed his moving picture business and his newspaper. In fact the white man owes McRary today at least $25,000. Now you begin to "smell a rat," don't you? There's money at stake in this nice little game. And the white man was not in New York where the press said he was on the night when the trap was sprung, but was out patiently waiting for the signal of his "watchers." We are not excusing McRary. It may be that he is an old sinner of long standing in the case, the trapping was deliberately and methodically done. The colored man has secured the best lawyers in the state. The white --- citizens of the state and of the town of Lexington, are not very sympathetic with the accuser. White people are human beings, too, and naturally recoil before certain degrees of nastiness. It is rumored that the white man is offering to compromise for a next sum. FINE Y. W. C. A. IS COMPLETED IN WASHINGTON, D. C. Washington, D. C.—In the completion of the Phyllis Wheatley Club building, Ninth and Rhode Island avenue northwest, by October 1, Washington has one of the finest colored "Y" buildings in the country. Erected at a cost of $200,000, this colored Y. W. C. A. building is of the latest type of recreation houses. It is probably the only combination of recreation and sleeping quarter "Y" building in Washington. It has a cafeteria, gymnasium, each with a capacity for 250 girls, forty-five sleeping rooms and twenty-four dressing rooms. Occupation of the buildings will take place in late October. Room and board for girls can be obtained at about $35 per month. Once More It makes a public official feel mighty good to have the confidence of the community which is expressed in a unanimous renomination by his party. IT WILL BE MY CONSTANT ENDEAVOR to deserve this confidence in the future as in the past. CONGRESSMAN I expect to talk to you frequently in this space, about American business, American politics and American ideals, and to convince you that you should Representative N. VAILE NEGROES OF SOUTH GET FAVORABLE LEGISLATION North Carolina Legislature Adopts Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 13.—The recent special session of the North Carolina general assembly showed a thorough manifestation of a humane spirit toward the Negroes of this state and in it the Negroes are beginning to see the beginning of a broader horizon for them here and more rapid advancement of the race along intellectual, moral and social lines. This recent new spirit seems to have emulated from Governor Bickett, who believes in Christianity in its broadest sense and who issued the following statement last week: The general assembly realized that if we care to maintain a white civilization in North Carolina it must be white in soul as well as in skin; therefore it authorized the governor to appoint a commission to prepare plans looking to the establishment of a reformatory for delinquent Negro boys, a sanitarium for the treatment of Negroes afflicted with tuberculosis, a first class teachers' training school and for a safer and more sanitary accommodation for Negroes on the trains. All these things are demanded by a Christian civilization. RACENEWS Gathered From Various Sources NEGRO WOMEN REGISTER. Savannah, Ga.—Because it is understood the preachers in a number of pulpits in Negro churches advised the Negro women to register in order to be qualified to vote in Chatham county, the court house was stormed by Negro women who wanted to put their names on the registration books. POLICE ESCORT PASTOR FROM CHURCH PULPIT New York, Sept. 17.—Conditions at Bethel A. M. E. church continue chaotic. Sunday morning Rev. Thornton, still clinging to his pulpit, attempted to conduct the services. During the entire service the faction opposed to the new pastor continued to interrupt. At times they would stand up in the pews and talk loudly, and when the pastor began to preach several of the worshipers started to sing a hymn. Rev. Thornton finally gave it up. Escorted by the police, the opposed minister again appeared Sunday night to preach a sermon to the G. U. O. O. F. of St. John. This time he succeeded fairly well. Inside the church eight plain clothes policemen were on hand, while outside three uniformed men were necessary to keep order. On both occasions, as Rev. Thornton left the church, he was hissed. SLAYS HIS FATHER TO PROTECT MOTHER Dallas, Texas, Sept. 17.—In an effort to rescue his mother from injury at the hands of her husband, Cary Williams, 17 years old, stabbed his father, Sancko Williams, aged 38, to death in the latter's home here Saturday, after being seriously slashed himself. Several inches of a knife blade were found broken off in the father's chest when police entered the Williams residence at 2118 Cadiz street to quell the disturbance. Mrs. Della Williams, aged 35, wife of the slain man, was slightly cut on the left arm and shoulder. After seeing his mother attacked, young Williams declared he seized a knife and fought his father, whom he asserted was under the influence of whisky. The boy was carried to the emergency hospital in an ambulance and his wounds dressed. He said that the trouble started because his father was trying to abuse his mother. GIRL TO DIE ON THE GALLOWS; SLEW RIVAL Will Be the First to Hang in Washington Since Time of Abraham Lincoln Washington, D. C., Sept. 17.—Officials of the United States district attorney's office are hopeful that some technicality of the law can be employed to save the life of Miss Josephine Berry, 20 years old, who is condemned to die here Oct. 15. If her execution is allowed to take place it will be the first time in 55 years that a woman has been hanged in the District of Columbia. The last woman hanged here was Mrs. Suratt (white), who aided the conspirators who accomplished the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. NO. 50 President Wilson has refused to take any action in the case, and it is regarded as practically certain that no way can be discovered to reopen the case with the view of giving her a life sentence in the federal penitentiary instead of the gallows. Miss Berry was tried and convicted after she had murdered Miss Ada King, a rival for the love of the Berry girl's sweetheart. Persons here are taking little interest in the case. BOLEY LAYS CORNERSTONE FOR $50,000 SANITORIUM Boley, Okla.—Boley, the largest Negro town in the United States—perhaps in the world—held recently the largest celebration ever held by this metropolis of Okfpskee county. The occasion was the laying of the cornerstone of the $50,000 tuberculosis sanatorium that is being built by the state to care for the Negro tubercular sick. Friday, September 3, was the day set apart for the event and the celebration lasted throughout the day. The arrival of Governor Robertson was the signal to start the day's festivities. He, with a party of state officials and prominent speakers on the program, arrived from Shawnee. When the automobiles reached the edge of the town they were met by the mayor and a reception committee. The streets and downtown stores were decorated with bunting and the whole town was in gala attire in honor of the visitors. The cornerstone laying ceremonies were held on the site, one-half mile south of Boley. Music by a choral club of forty voices was one of the features of the program. The welcome address was delivered by D. J. Turner, mayor of Boley. ATTACKS ON NEGROES. Mob Violence a Reason for Opposing Democratic Candidates. To the Sun and New York Herald: The increase of mob violence during this Democratic administration has been alarming. Colored men and women are being set upon and beaten for things less than trivial. A few days ago in Newark, N. J., the colored employees of a factory were beaten and driven out because they refused to honor one of their fellow workmen, a Southern cracker, with the term "mister." In the state of Arkansas a colored man was severely wounded because he had hired another colored man who had refused to work for a white man. In the state of Georgia a colored man and his wife were beaten and driven away because the husband refused to allow his wife to work in the field. In Mississippi a father and one son were killed and other members of the family brutally beaten because, as the white crackers said: "The niggers were grittin' too rich and sassy." This colored man reputed to have been worth about $50,000. These are just a few instances. In June, 1908, we had one act of mob violence; in June, 1912, we had one. These were the last years that Roosevelt and Taft respectively were in office. In June, 1920, we had seven instances where colored men were beaten and five instances where colored men were lynched and their bodies riddled with bullets. The civilized world is aware of the fact that at the very time when the American Negro soldiers were giving up their lives in France their brothers, fathers, sisters and mothers were being mobbed in this country. As a matter of fact, Negro soldiers who escaped with their lives from France have had to face shots and shells since their return to their homes. How could any colored man or woman fail to see and feel the sacredness of the obligation and duty not only to vote but to use all his or her influence on November 2 against the Democratic party?

THE PRIMARY ELECTION HAS PASSED THE RESULT of the Primary Election up to the time of going to press shows the people's choice in the nomination of candidates for the fall election to be held November 2. 1920. We must repeat that those who are unsuccessful must resolve in accepting those chosen by the people to throw their forces together, making a strong combination and instituting a campaign for the coming election. In the selection of the nominees we have every reason to believe that we have men and women of integrity who will do all in their power for the return of the Grand Old Party to good government, guaranteeing a square deal to everyone and prosperity to the country at large, so that it rests upon us to enter this election with more zeal for the support and success of the candidates. Some have been tried and have not been found wanting in the positions they occupied, while others are just starting out; but their standing in the community, backed by their utterances from time to time in which they pledge themselves to the suppression of everything savoring of depression and retrogression and the uplifting and upbuilding of a people and a nation merits the full indorsement of every true Republican. Colorado has experienced the result of changes and interchanges by the introduction of new parties and organizations, and we think the time has come when the people, tiring of the present state of things, will make up their minds to not only maintain law, order and justice, but subscribe their efforts to the improvement of conditions for the good of all and support the candidates who promise to live up to their platforms of usefulness and progress. OUR SILENT WEAPON UNDER the constitution of the United States every citizen has been given the sacred right and privilege to cast his vote. Notwithstanding that that high and sacred privilege has been abridged and denied the colored voter in every Southern state in direct violation of the national constitution, there are many states that uphold and respect the national constitution and extend this sacred right to all citizens, regardless of race, creed or color. The ballot is our only protection and if we fail to take advantage of it and vote at every election we have failed in our duty to ourselves, our wives and our children, our homes and our institutions. Here in Colorado, where we have the right to vote, every colored man and woman should register in order that they may be able to cast a vote for his or her own protection and the peace prosperity and progress of the state and nation. After eight long years of intimidation, abuse, and ignominy heaped upon us, we cannot understand why any colored man or woman should be so indifferent, careless, negligent and thoughtless as to fail to vote, especially this year. We need a change of administration. There is pending in Congress vital and important legislation affecting the future of our own race, and it is our indispensable duty to help elect a Congress that will pass the legislation necessary for our protection and to place in the White House a man who will sign and enforce these laws. If we did not have the right to vote we would be clamoring and agitating for that right, but now that we have it we are derelict in our duty and fail to vote because we haven't the time. Some of us do not vote because we think we do not understand how to vote. If you never try you will never know and forever remain ignorant. We regret that the law does not impose a heavy fine upon every citizen who does not vote. A compulsory voting law would wipe out a great many evils. We appeal to the timid voter to ginger-up and make the effort and help the race to batter down the enemy who is striving to close the door against us. The man who has not sufficient interest in himself or his city to take the time to go and vote is not worthy to be called a citizen. True citizenship imposes upon every individual certain duties he owes to his city and state and one of those important duties is casting his vote for the better government of his state and county. The country is in the midst of a great campaign and we will be responsible for the kind of laws and government we get if we do not cast our vote this fall in a fearless and intelligent manner. The great trouble with a majority of us is that we vote and do not know why and for what we vote; we belong to a party and we do not know why except that our father or some particular friend belongs to that party. An intelligent voter, be he a Democrat or a Republican, is far more preferable than a blind, thoughtless and ignorant voter. The time has long past when a man can neglect his duty and responsibility to his state and country and maintain his standing and self-respect. The people look upon such a man as a useless appendage to society and simply pass him up as a mere nonentity. THE ANARCHIST BLAST. ON THURSDAY at high noon, Sept. 16th, in New York City, the blast of the anarchist bomb was heard and felt, and when the smoke had cleared away it was found that more than thirty innocent lives had been sacrificed and over 200 people maimed and injured, together with the destruction of millions of dollars worth of property. Such a cruel, savage, wantonness massacre of innocent people has never been equalled before in all the history of crime and anarchy in the United States. To deliberately set off a destructive, death bomb in the heart of the greatest financial center in the world is the most cowardly, inhuman, and dastardly act that could be conceived by a criminal mind. Many poor, hard-working men, women, boys and girls who have dependents, all of them perhaps, were killed or maimed for life without cause or warning. We do not pause here to search for the cause of such a blood-curdling crime, but hasten in our energy to assist the government in running down the criminals. The possibilities of catching the actual murderers are slim perhaps, but the horde of sympathizers and conspirators in this ghoulish work should be easily apprehended and tried by court-martial. To think that such a monstrous crime could take place in any American city is unbelievable. And yet, not satisfied in their thirst for blood and revenge, in their sordid and distorted imagination, they have sent out boastful warnings against the national capitol. They time is past when the government should have tightened up on its slack and careless execution of the immigration laws of the country. We are afflicted with too many dissatisfied elements from foreign lands and the remedy for such cut-throat is at hand if only the government will act. We have been too lenient, too hospitable to these murderers. We have temporized and excused too long. We have listened to the plea of the placid pacifist until the foundations of the government are trembling and shaking. Last Thursdays bombblast was a challenge to the nation and a serious blow to organized society and government. Had such a murderous blast occurred during the war, we would not have wondered so strangely. But now at this time when the war is over and the nation at peace, to witness such an indescribable horror, we insist that the government must begin to function or else we will all be blown up. With such extreme national unrest that has been notoriously extant for the past few years, the government might have expected such a blow. We have numerous warnings in the many strikes and riots that have taken place throughout the country in the last three or four years to have put the country on guard. The department of justice will be wholly justified in arresting and deporting every suspicious character of foreign nationality in every city in the United States. Under present conditions human life and property are absolutely at the mercy of the anarchist. This is a serious affair and the government has a difficult task for investigation. Away with red-tape and bureaucracy and uproot this menace. Law Should Protect Alaskan Big Game Against Pot Hunters and Wolves. By DR. W. T. HORNADAY. New York Zoological Gardens. It is perfectly clear that there are today several conditions in the game situation that stand in need of radical improvement. I think that those conditions and improvements may be listed, in the order of their importance, as follows: A. B. There should now be a complete stoppage of the sale of game. There now is necessary a legal system for the more thorough utilization of game and less waste of game. There should be created a system of regulated hunting by proxy, by which persons living in remote regions, and who positively require some wild meat in order to live in good health, may procure their rightful annual proportion of game. There should now be a stoppage of all wasteful game-killing, and especially of cow moose, by Indians; and the killing of game by Indians and Eskimo should be strictly regulated. The destruction of game by wolves should be checked by a relentless war of extermination on the latter. The proper utilization of poison should be provided for by regulation. It being the bounden duty of the federal government and the territory of Alaska jointly to protect the game of Alaska, an adequate establishment of a game commissioner and a larger force of game wardens now has become necessary. There should be a paid deputy game warden in every settlement large enough to have a postoffice. The territory of Alaska should be empowered to charge a license fee, to both resident and non-resident hunters, and apply the proceeds thereof to the cost of game protection to the territory. The federal government should retain its authority to close any area to hunting whenever the decrease of game therein seems to threaten the local extinction of a valuable species. National League of Women Voters Has Opportunity and Responsibility. What are the women going to do with the vote? Are they going to draw back their skirts in disdain from all interest in politics on the ground that it is corrupt, or are they going to be of those who will help swell America's army of voters who put conscience and thought into the scales with party politics and party candidates? The women are ready for the work before them, but the National League of Women Voters, with state branches formed from the old suffrage organizations, is being perfected to help them find their way through the maze of these besetting questions. The league is not partisan, but pan-partisan, all partisan. A woman can be a member of it and yet be a member of any political party she may choose. It is through the political parties that we must work. They furnish us with the machinery through which we are enabled to reach the public, keep the public informed, through which public consciousness is created. Neither state or nation should temporize with the problems of government before them. The victory means opportunity for more work and added responsibility for women in national service. "Tasks in Hours of Vision Willed, May Be in Hours of Gloom Fulfilled." "The tasks in hours of vision willed May be in hours of gloom fulfilled." So declared a thoughtful poet. As a matter of fact, the flash of inspiration never brings enough carrying power to sustain a man through the long drudgery of keeping at a difficult task to its triumphant completion. Some people are all the while having inspirations which they never bring to the test of steady and persistent action. They keep beginning things. They never finish anything. "Well begun" may be "half done," but it is not entirely done, and so these people are the victims of their own varied enthusiasms. An emotion is a good thing with which to start. But for a hard task you have to get down to the will. And the will can keep us at work in dull hours and gloomy hours and weary hours. The will can hold us to the task until the long tug is over and the work is brought to an effective conclusion. "I'll bend my moods by the strength of my purposes," said a wise man. He knew one of the great secrets of success. "England Is Our Nearest Relative In This Many-Peopled World." By OWEN WISTER, in "A Straight Deal." In this many-peopled world England is our nearest relation. From Bonaparte to the kaiser, never has she allowed any outsider to harm us. We are her cub. She has often clawed us, and we have often clawed her in return. This will probably go on . . . I have not sought to persuade the reader that Great Britain is a charitable institution. What nation is, or could be, given the nature of man? Her good treatment of us has been to her own interest. She is wise, far-seeing, less of an opportunist in her statesmanship than any other nation. She has seen clearly and ever more clearly that our good-will was to her advantage. And beneath her wisdom, at the bottom of all, is her sense of our kinship through liberty defined and assured by law. If we were so far-seeing as she is, we also should know that her good-will is equally important to us, not alone for material reasons, or for the sake of safety, but also for those few deep, ultimate ideals of law, liberty, life, manhood and womanhood which we share with her, which we got from her; because she is our nearest relation in this many-peopled world.

FEDERAL PRISONERS FAIL TO ESCAPE On last Monday night two federal prisoners confined in the county jail had framed up a clever ruse to make their get-away, but the plot was tipped off to Guard Edward Allison and the plan died in jail. The two prisoners planned to make a sham battle at mid-night, so as to cause a guard to enter their cells to take them to the "cooler" of the jail and then overpower the guard and take his keys and break for liberty. At that hour there were only two guards on duty, but Guard Allison being wise to the scheme, let the prisoners sham and roar. The next day they were taken out and after a severe "swenting" and long bread-and-water diet they confessed. DEATHS AND FUNERALS. THE CAMMEL UNDERTAKING CO.

RESOLUTIONS DISSOLVING THE COLORED CITIZENS' NON-PARTISAN LEAGUE OF DENVER, COLORADO. Denver, Colo., Sept. 21, 1920. Whereas, The Colored Citizens' Non-Partisan League of Denver, Colorado, was organized for the purpose of a more general diffusion of political information and for a broader participation and discussion of political issues, party platforms and candidates than is possible within the narrow limits of strictly partisan procedure, and Whereas, The Colored Citizens' Non-Partisan League of Denver, Colorado, has accomplished much during its existence to stimulate the Negro citizens in this community with a clearer understanding of their political rights and has by its unselfish and indefeitable efforts secured places of honor, trust and emolument for a number of our fellow citizens and has earned for itself the respect and good will of the people generally, and Whereas, We believe that the Colored Citizens' Non-Partisan League, under its name and style, can be of no further use to its members, nor to the community, because of the coming of another political organization, national in scope, similar in name but having nothing in common with the Colored Citizens' Non-Partisan League of Denver, Colorado. And, as it has ever been the purpose of this organization to promote the interest of its members and friends and to embarrass none, we believe that the interest of all is best conserved by dissolving the Colored Citizens' League of Denver, Colorado. Therefore, be it Resolved, That on and after this date, Sept. 21, 1920, the Colored Citizens' Non-Partisan League of Denver, Colorado, shall cease to exist as a political organization and that its constitution and laws are hereby annulled and without force and effect. (Resolution Signed.) MRS. WILLIE EDWARDS, MRS. EVA TOMPKINS, E. M. NEIL, DR. P. E. SPRATLIN, Pres. Billy Knight will give a grand reception and dance, Monday night, September 27th, at Fern Hall. This will be in honor of his birthday. All ladies will be admitted free. Gentlemen will be charged 50 cents. We will have plenty of candy and fresh cut flowers for the ladies. Remember, ladies, this is all free. Y. M. C. A. NOTES The first fall meeting of the committee of management was held last Tuesday evening, and was one of the most important meetings held for a long while. The meeting was called to examine the blue-prints of the proposed new building, which have recently come. The committee went into every phase of the matter, carefully examining them in every detail. The blue-prints provide for every phase of the work, with three stories and basement. A meeting of the entire membership and of the public in general will be called on the first Sunday afternoon in October, at which the blue-prints will be on exhibition so that all way see and examine them. The committee feels mighty good over the plans, and are happy that the matter has been pushed so far. But another bit of good news was reported. For a long while it has been felt that a boys' work secretary was necessary for the welfare of the boys' work. Word was received from the New York office the first of the week that Harry Townsend, assistant boys' work secretary of the New York City Y, M, C, A., had been released for the position and will be in in Denver by Oct. 1 to take up the work. Mr. Townsend has been in "Y" work in some form ever since he was twelve years of age, and has made a splendid record with the New York association. His position will be that of city-wide boys' work secretary, and his field will be all the colored boys in the city of Denver, regardless of membership. This is a great work, a great opportunity and a great responsibility. King and Sims are still contending for the croquet mastery. They met on Friday evening and again on Tuesday morning. In the Friday contest, King took the thing clean away from Sims, and raised his lead from 16 to 18. Sims made brilliant plays a-plenty, but they were offset by wild and aimless shooting. He had better control of himself in the Tuesday morning game, however, for he flayed King by a score of six to three, cutting down King's lead to 15. Sims and Stripling had a fierce contest with Bell and Blakemore Monday evening. The first game was taken rather easily by the latter players, who early in the game got the advantage of their opponents. In the second game Sims and Stripling got a strong lead and maintained it until near the end of the first half, when their opponents began gaining on them. This gain was kept up, although Sims pressed on and became a rover. After that the outlook seemed dark for Bell and Blakemore. By skillful maneuvering, however, they pressed on, finally winning the game just as Stripling caught position within the center on his return home. Don't forget the big meeting to be held on the afternoon of Oct. 3. Get ready to see the blue-prints! Full notice in this paper next week.

WOODLAND.CAL..NEWS Mr. Ed Mansfield, who received a broken leg about two months ago, is now on crutches and will soon be away from the sanitarium. The Second Baptist Church had Sunday services in their social hall on account of the work not being completed on the church. Rev, and Mrs. J. T. Muse were in Sacramento one day last week and attended the A. M. E. Church conference. Rev, J. M. Endicott of Cheyenne, Wyo., on his return from the Arizona conference, was a visitor over night Wednesday of last week with Rev. and Mrs. J. T. Muse. Mrs. L. O. Gaither of Esparto, a few days ago received the sad message of the serious illness of her mother, whose home is in Tennessee. She left immediately for her bedside. Sherman Keene, who has been in Denver during the summer left Friday for Eaton, Colo., to resume his work with the Great Western Sugar Company, where he has been a foreman of the beet-end department for three years. GEORGIAN STARTS FIRE INSURANCE COMPANY Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 17.—The Great Southern Fire Insurance company went into permanent organization in this city recently with a capital stock of $100,000, thus bringing the number of corporations incorporated under the Georgia laws by our people with such a large capital and headquarters here up to ten. Numerous smaller corporations operating out of this city bring the total capitalization of these concerns to nearly $3,000,000. MISS NETTIE PENIX HERNDON Teacher of Piano. Studio, 2542 Gaylord. Tel.

Just after her husband's death she plants a flagstaff at her door, upon which a flag is raised. While the flag remains untorn by the wind the etiquette of Sumatra forbids her to marry; but at the first rent, however small, she can lay aside her mourning, assume her most bewitching smile and accept the first man who presents himself. 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. It's a big job to render telephone service to this great Rocky Mountain region. It's a big territory, embracing as it does, over one-fifth the land area of the United States. It requires more plant, more miles of wire per unit of population than is required in any other portion of the United States. The reason lies in the fact that while our territory embraces 22 per cent of the land area of the country, it contains only 3 per cent of the population. There is enough telephone wire in service in this area to circle the globe thirty times—over 746,000 miles. Attached to this network of wires there are 300,000 telephones serving the patrons of our System. About all the subscriber ever observes of this great System is the telephone on his desk, and that looks so simple, yet it contains 205 separate parts. Nearly 50 million dollars are invested in the System—in buildings, switchboards, cable, conduit, poles, wire, tools, etc. Seven thousand faithful men and women are employed to operate and maintain the System at a cost of over 8 million dollars a year for salaries and wages. It's a great, comprehensive system of communication at the service of the people of the Rocky Mountain West.

PROPER QUANTITY OF JUICE Among Other Materials Which Can Be Used for Sweetening Are Honey, Maple Sirup, Corn Sugar, Molasses and Other Sirups. A good jelly should be bright, clear, and of an attractive color. When removed from the glass it should retain the shape of the mold. Jelly of the right consistency can be cut with a distinct cleavage, retaining the angles where cut. It should sparkle and be tender enough to quiver without breaking. Wash the fruits, remove stems, and cut large fruits into pieces. With berries, grapes, and currants add one cupful of water for each pound of fruit. For apples, quinces, and other hard fruits add three cupfuls of water to each pound of sliced fruit. Cook until tender. Fruit juices flow more freely when heated. As soon as the fruit is tender it should be put into a jelly bag and allowed to trip. If the fruit is overcooked, a cloudy jelly is apt to result. Can Be Made With Less Sugar. Good jellies can be made with much less sugar than many housekeepers thought possible a few years ago. Some persons like these products made with less sugar better than the old-fashioned kinds that were sometimes so, sweet that the flavor of the fruit was spoiled. Canning experts of the United States department of agriculture give the following suggestions for using sugar economically: Reduce the amount of sugar ordinarily used by one-fifth or one-fourth—that is, use four-fifths, or three-fourths cupful of sugar instead of the whole cup called for in the recipe. In the case of non-acid fruits A woman stirring a pot of soup. Remove Jelly From Stove When It Will "Sheet Off" From Spoon. particularly, the absence of sugar will be less noticeable if one-fourth teaspoonful of salt is added for each cupful of fruit juice. The salty taste will disappear after the product has stood for a few weeks, but the favor will be richer than if the salt were not used. Another way to save sugar is to substitute for part of the granulated sugar called for in the recipe, honey, maple sirup, corn sugar, molasses, the new malt sirups, which are superior to those formerly on the market, or one of the other sirups sold under various trade names. Some of these sweeteners have a distinctive flavor, and at first it may be best to use those only with fruits that have a pronounced flavor of their own, such as grapes, cranberries, plums, currants and loganberries. Quantity of Juice for Jelly. About two quarts of juice boiled rapidly in a shallow pan gives a jelly with better color and consistency. When the proportion of sugar to juice has been determined, measure the fruit juice and place over the fire to cook. When the juice begins to boil add the sugar immediately and stir until the sugar is dissolved. When the sugar is dissolved cook the juice as rapidly as possible. Long, slow cooking tends to darken the product and to destroy the pectin, which will cause the jelly to be less firm. A good means of determining when the cooking is finished is to test the juice with a spoon or paddle. Dip the spoon in the boiling sip, remove, cool by moving it back and forth for a few seconds, and then allow the jelly to drip from it. As long as there is sipup present, it will run from the spoon. When the jelly point is reached, it will break from the spoon in flakes or sheets. Remove from the fire immediately and skim. Skimming at this time saves waste. After skimming pour at once into hot, scaled glasses and set aside to cool. Cool as rapidly as possible. For Cleaning a Basin. To clean a basin or bathtub put a little coarse salt into the dampened tub or basin, and then rub it over lightly with a cloth dipped in turpentine. CONDITION OF FEET OF BIG IMPORTANCE Well-Fitting Shoes Are of First Consideration. Hose Should Be Long Enough to Give Toes Free Play and Not Bothered by Uneven Darns—Put Plaster on Tender Spot. (By United States Public Health Service.) The pleasures of walking or standing depends to a large extent on the condition of the feet. The importance of well-fitting shoes cannot be over-estimated. The shoes should have heavy soles, moderate heels, and be neither tight nor loose. A laced shoe is best under ordinary circumstances, but in certain occupations where changes may have to be made quickly, a congress gaiter meets conditions best. New and stiff shoes are almost sure to be very uncomfortable; shoes should be worn sufficiently beforehand so that they will adapt themselves to the shape of the wearer's feet and be comfortable. All hose should be long enough to give the toes free play. Great care should be taken to have all darns smooth. After the day's work the feet should be carefully washed and dried. Air the hose so as to have them dry when they are to be put on again. The shoes should be placed so that they can be well dried out before replacing on the feet. If the feet are swollen or hot, or tend to be sensitive (tender), wash them in salt water or rub with medicated alcohol and dry before putting on hose. Dust with talcum powder and put some of the powder on the hose and into the shoes. A change of hose and shoes—by having two pair—alternating daily, is very comfortable when much standing or walking has to be done. Cover tender spots with surgeon's "zo" plaster, applied directly, if walking must be continued and it is inconvenient to change hose or shoes. Blisters are best treated by washing the feet thoroughly in hot water, then taking a clean needle and pricking through the skin—not directly into the blister—and gently pressing out fluid till blister is flat. To toughen and harden the feet soak them for some time in a dish containing cold tannic acid solution—a table-spoonful of acid to two quarts of water. A solution of medicated alcohol and salt answers the same purpose. MANNER OF HOUSE CLEANING Many of Old Methods Are Wrong in Principle and Faulty in Practice —Some Good Hints. Many of the common time-honored methods of house cleaning are wrong in principle and faulty in practice. Dry sweeping and dusting is often worse than useless. Scrubbing with soap and water, wiping with damp cloths, and thorough prolonged airings are of decided value. Vacuum cleaners are very useful but their use is not within reach of everybody. In dusting, a damp rag should be used, subsequently washing the rag out in warm soap suds. Some surfaces such as walls, furniture, metal beds, doors and other wood work may advantageously be wiped off with a rag moistened with turpentine, kerosene, or paraffine oil. Nothing can approach sunlight combined with airing for a simple efficacious disinfectant. It is, therefore, a good plan to place clothing, blankets, rugs, draperies and similar goods in the open air in the sun light, beating and brushing out the dust before returning them to their place in the house. A can of paint for use in the kitchen and other places where the woodwork and walls are much subject to wear, and perhaps a coat of white wash in the cellar will go a long way to give the finishing touches to the house cleaning. Clean-up and paint-up is a very useful slogan. DON'T USE CANNING POWDERS Their Excessive Use May Be Attended With Serious Effects—No Good Reason for Risk. In some communities there is a wide-spread use of canning powder. Both boric and salicylic acid are bought from druggists for this purpose. Large quantities of these acids are also sold at a high price under fanciful canning compound names. The United States department of agriculture warns against the use of any preserving powder or canning compound. Their use may be attended with serious effects upon digestion and health. It is entirely practicable to "put up" fruits and vegetables, so that they will keep indefinitely by processing the products with heat. There is no reason for taking the risk of using canning powders. Aluminum pots, pans or other utensils should never be washed in water containing sal-soda. If you wish to dry clothes in a hurry when it is raining, hang them in the house and turn on the electric fan.

Veuil hearts are most savory and when well cooked taste much like most savory and taste much like venison. Fry four slices of bacon to a crisp, remove from the frying pan and fry a small sliced onion in the hot fat. Trim and wash four veal hearts; venison. Fry four slices of bacon to a crisp, remove from the frying pan and fry a small sliced onion in the hot fat. Trim and wash four veal hearts; slice them, roll the pieces in flour and fry them in hot fat. Place the hearts in a heated casserole, add to the fat in the pan a cupful of water or stock, a minced pimento, a teaspoonful of salt and half a bay leaf. Pour the mixture over the hearts and cook two hours. Five minutes before serving add the slices of bacon. Braised Calf's Liver.—Make small slits with a knife in the liver and insert minced onion and slices of bacon, using one onion and two ounces of bacon to two pounds of liver. Brown fat and flour, three tablespoonfuls each, add liver and roll until well seared in the fat and flour. Place in a hot casserole, add a sliced carrot, a bit of bay leaf, salt, one-half cupful of strained tomato, a cupful of hot water or stock and bake two and one-half hours. Vegetables en Casserole.—Cut turnips, squash, or cauliflower into small pieces and cook in salted water until tender. Drain, place in a casserole with two minced green peppers, a table-spoonful of butter and one-half cupful of cream or rich milk. Bake in a moderate oven fifteen minutes. Then pour over a cream sauce, add a layer of buttered crumbs and cook uncovered until the crumbs are brown Kidney en Casserole.—Select sheep's kidneys, skin, dip into a mixture of minced parsley, onion and thyme. Add a tablespoonful of flour, cayenne and salt to taste. Add two tablespoonfuls of butter and cook in a casserole for thirty minutes. Remove, pour over a cupful of clear stock mixed with a tablespoonful each of flour and butter; cover with buttered crumbs and bake one hour. When ready to serve put several tablespoonfuls of cooked rice in the casserole around the kidneys with rolls of crisp bacon. Serve with toast. "Oh for a new generation of day dreamers.

Mix sugar, a pinch of salt and cinnamon to taste to fill the cavities. Add water and bake until the apples are soft, basting often with the sirup in the dish. Remove to the oven and brown. Chill, serve with sugar and cream. For the meringue use the whites of two eggs, four tablespoonfuls of sugar and one-half teaspoonful of flavoring extract. Scrambled Eggs With Corn.—Take one cupful of fresh grated corn, three eggs, one cupful of milk, one tablespoonful of finely minced green pepper, one tablespoonful of butter and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Put the onion, pepper and half the milk in a saucepan and cook five minutes. Beat the eggs and half a cupful of milk together, add to the corn and cook slowly, stirring constantly until set. Add butter, salt and serve on slices of buttered toast. Deviled Oysters.—Take two dozen oysters, one cupful of cracker crumbs, one tablespoonful each of catsup and Worcestershire sauce, one small onion, one tablespoonful of butter, salt and pepper as required; saute the chopped onion in the butter, chop oysters fine and turn into the onion. Stew ten minutes, add three eggs and the other ingredients and stir until of the consistency of scrambled eggs. Sauce Henriette.—Wash one-half cupful of butter and divide into three parts. Put one piece in a saucepan with the yolks of three eggs slightly beaten and mixed with one-half tablespoonful of lemon juice and one tablespoonful of water. Set the saucepan into a larger one of hot water, place over the fire and stir constantly until the butter is melted. Add a second piece of butter, and when melted the third piece, then add two tablespoonfuls of tomato purée, one of Worcestershire sauce, one-half tablespoonfuls of parsley, one-half teaspoonful of minced parsley, one-half teaspoonful of salt and a dash of cayenne. This sauce should be perfectly smooth and of the consistency of a boiled custard. To prepare the tomato purée cook a cupful of tomato until thick, reduce to three tablespoonfuls, then put through a sleeve. The Little Pool. I am too small for winds to mar My surface, but I hold a star. SAVING SUGGESTIONS. The outlook for the coming year is not at all promising in regard to lower prices for food, so the wise housewife is making saving rather than spending, her social standard. We must be contented with simple PINEAPPLE food, simple pleasures and simple clothes. If we all pull together we may hope to help conditions. The consumer must help to see that the farmer gets reasonable prices for his products and he must endeavor to help the government to protect the consumer from the extortion of unscrupulous speculators. The great hue and cry of the people that the farmer is profiteering would cease if those who make it understood the real fact that the farmer is the poorest paid worker in this country; he averages 11 cents an hour. When the farmer strikes and refuses to sell or produce except for his own use we may appreciate something of the burden he has borne. Food carefully served, nicely prepared and garnished is much more appetizing than carelessly prepared food and thus there is less waste. Sauces, seasonings and various garnishes are important food adjuncts. One need not be niggardly or parsimonious in serving food. The children should have plenty of plain food and a growing boy or girl needs as much as an adult. The following suggestions were given us during the war, but they are as necessary now with nearly everything higher in price than two years ago; Pack eggs before the fall prices make such packing too expensive. The sterile egg keeps much better than the fertile. In some states the splendid custom of having a cockerel day and killing off all surplus stock is one to be recommended to every state in the Union. Eggs packed in one part of water-glass to ten parts of water will keep indefinitely. Boil the water, cool it, add the water-glass. Thirty or forty cents' worth will cover 24 dozen eggs. Don't order more perishable foods than can be wisely used. Plan meals ahead to avoid waste and by ordering ahead it helps you, the butcher and the groceryman. Think truly and thy thought Shall the world's famine feed; Speak truly and each word of thine Shall be a multilayer seed; Live truly and thy life shall be A great and noble creed. —Horatius Bonar. INTERESTING SPICES AND CONDIMENTS. Spices may be grouped into four classes: Those which are the bark of the parent plant; those which are it; fruit or flowers, those which are its root stocks and those which are its seeds. Cinnamon and cassia are closely related. The bark of the cinnamon tree is usually stripped from the shoots those which are it fruit or flowers, those which are its root stocks and those which are its seeds. Cinnamon and cassia are closely related. The bark of the cinnamon tree is usually stripped from the shoots when about two years old, which are fermented to make the stripping easier. Cassia buds are the undeveloped flowers of the cassia tree. The crop of both cinnamon and cassia are harvested from May to November. Because of the warm cordial effect of cinnamon, tea made from it is used for colic and nausea. Chicken fat is a most tasty fat; every spoonful should be saved. The vanilla bean is contained in the pod or fruit of one of the orchids, a vine with spikes of large fragrant flowers. This plant is native to Mexico, South America and Asia. The flavor is so generally liked that the demand far exceeds the supply and other flavors similar to vanilla are used, as it is becoming more and more scarce. In China the Canton ginger is famous for confections and flavoring, and is a great favorite in this country. It comes in small jars or packed in boxes as crystallized fruit. The active principle of horseradish, its volatile oil, is identical with its near relative, mustard. Horseradish while popularly considered merely a condiment, is used medicinally. It is so beneficial and stimulating to the digestive organs that it is often prescribed as a tonic to create appetite when a general run-down condition prevails. It is considered an excellent blood purifier and good for the kidneys. Mixed with honey it is a most efficacious cough remedy. Ginger and horseradish are the chief representatives of the root stock type. These roots are known and grown in both hemispheres. The American colonies inherited the old Dutch and English uses of both for seasoning meats, pickles and the ginger root in preserves, sweetmeats, cakes and for medicinal uses.

The AMERICAN LEGION (Copy for This Department Supplied by the American Legion News Service.) WOULD "CLEAN UP" POLITICS Massachusetts High School Girl Choses Important Topic to Win Essay Contest. An appeal to the American Legion to "clean up" politics is contained in the essay of a high school girl which recently was awarded a prize in the Somerville (Mass.) post's competition for the best article on "What Service Can the American Legion Render to the United States?" Miss Eleanor Randall, the winner, makes this suggestion: "When politics means graft, corruption, and the attainment of selfish ends, then is our government debased. It is the duty of the American Legion to change this interpretation of 'politics,' being careful meanwhile that the game is not played within the limits of the organization itself. It must oust the grafter, wipe away the corruption, and teach that the welfare of the government should be first and foremost in the mind of every true American. These boys who fought in the mud in France must not allow the mud of corrupt politics to cling about this great nation. As fearlessly as they fought in France, in spite of disagreeable conditions, they must clear away the mire and show us to the world as we really are at heart—a big-minded, idealistic people. "Thousands of foreigners coming to our shores each year discover," Miss Randall continues, "that the 'streets of gold' of America are covered by the mud of the slums and that their 'homes of happiness' are squalid flats in the tenement district. "Should it not be the members of the American Legion who should help the immigrant who has come to our shores?" she asks. "The United States has been rightfully called the 'melting pot' of all nations. After the melting who will mold? The men who fought for the democracy of the world are the ones best fitted for the task. They are the best guardians of those who hardly know what democracy means. Let them help the immigrant to understand and the down-trodden to rise and when this task is finished they will have rendered to their nation the greatest service in the history of the world." GETS OUT LEGION BULLETINS Miss Irene Harvan Who Prepares Orders for Circulation Among Posts and Members. There is one young lady who takes it upon herself to get out all the bulletins and circulars from national headquarters that reach 9,600 posts and 2,000,000 members of the American Mary E. Miss Irene Harvan. Legion. This is Miss Irene Harvan, who transcribes and mimeographs such material after it has been approved by Lemuel Bolles, the national adjutant. TO REMAIN AT SARANAC LAKE Wishes of Two Hundred Tubercular Patients at Sanitarium Are to Be Compiled With. Two hundred former service men, tubercular patients at Saranac Lake, will remain in the sanitarium there according to their wishes and will not be transferred to other government institutions as originally ordered, as the result of decisive action by the American Legion. An instant protest was registered by the ailing veterans when the order for their transfer came and Richard T. Bell, chief of the service division of the New York state department, who had visited the men at Saranac a short while before, took up their case with the United States public health service. At the same time John T. Taylor, chairman of the national legislation committee of the American region, took similar action and the transfer order was rescinded. MEDALS AWAIT SERVICE MEN Emblems for All Who Served in World War Ready for Distribution on Armistice Day. Nearly 5,000,000 Victory medals, turned out by a lengthy and involved process of manufacture, now are awaiting former service men. Thousands of these medals will be presented to veterans on Armistice day by posts of the American Legion, which have arranged elaborate ceremonies in honor of the occasion. The medal was designed by James Earl Frazer. Phases never before met with in medal production were met with by the contractors in the making of the decorations with their ribbons, battle claps and bars, and to handle certain steps in the process of manufacture new machines were invented. One of these was a ribbon-cutting machine which turned out 90 pieces a minute and in the course of a day did a quantity of work equal to the labors of 15 people. A striking machine with a force of 175 tons a blow was used on the medals after the disks had been annealed following which there came the application of a hydraulic pressure of 120 pounds. An automatic sand blast and an alcohol bath also were utilized before putting the final lacquer on the medal. Not only Legionnalres but many other ex-service men will take part in the Armistice day celebrations in all sections of the country and will receive their medals with formal observance of their significance. MANAGER OF LEGION WEEKLY C. Robert Bains, Business Chief of Publication, Began Life as a Cub Reporter. In the American Legion, which is essentially a young men's organization, few men have climbed the heights of responsibility faster and higher than C. Robert Bains, recently elected gen- THE NEW YORK TIMES C. ROBERT BAINS. eral manager of the Legion's official publication. the American Legion Weekly. Bain's first began to take life seriously as a cub reporter in his native Brooklyn fourteen years ago. He drifted into the newspaper advertising field and followed it until 1916, when he went to the Mexican border with the National Guard mobilization. Bains began army life skinning mules as a buck private in the old Second New York field artillery. Except for a brief tour with the Twelfth infantry on the border, he stuck to the field guns and passed successively through every grade in the enlisted and commissioned ranks to that of major. He went overseas with the Three Hundred and Eleventh remount squadron and later commanded the base remount depot of the army of occupation in Germany. He is thirty-four years old. FRENCH WAR ORPHANS' FUND Total Reaches $1,275, Sufficient to Care for Seventeen Children for One Year. A total of $1,275, or enough to provide for 17 French war orphans for a year, had been contributed to the Legion fund for the readoption of the war walfs who formerly were proteges of the late A. E. F., according to the books of the Legion national treasurer, Robert H. Tyndall, up to the close of business on August 14. Posts of the Legion, or individual members or friends, may adopt a French war orphan for at least one year by contributing $75 for the first year's support. The money should be sent to the French War Orphan Fund, National Treasurer, Indianapolis, Ind. It will then be turned over to the American Red Cross, which will assign the children and supervise the expenditure of the money. A specific child will be assigned to each adopting post or individual and a photograph of each mascot will be forwarded to the adopter, who thereafter may keep in touch with the war orphan either direct or through the Red Cross. The Red Cross bears all expense of administration so that all money contributed goes direct to the support of the child. Organizing in China. The Gen. Frederick Ward post of the American Legion in Shanghai, China, has been authorized to form other units of the organization in that country. The post was named after the American soldier who organized the "Ever Victorious Army" in China at the time of the Talping rebellion. U.S. PROFITS BIG, ASSERTS HOOVER FORMER FOOD ADMINISTRATOR RAPS POSTAL SAVINGS SYSTEM. FAVORS ESTABLISHMENT OF IN STITUTION ALONG LINES OF FARM LOAN BANK. Western Newspaper Union News Service. New York, Sept. 24.—Herbert Hoover, who testified before the Senate committee on reconstruction, declared he believed the aggregate of national savings would be stimulated if the government "stopped profiteering" and paid "something like an adequate rate of interest" to depositors. Reports showed, he said, that "profits obtained by the government in 1918, chiefly from redeposit of postal savings bank funds in banks at 2½ per cent interest were $1,135,000, while, he added, examination of any annual postal savings bank report would show that depositors do not receive much more than 1 per cent interest. "If a complete balance sheet were made from the beginning," he said, "the return of the government as indicated by the profits during 1819 on postal savings bank deposits, probably would represent at least 100 per cent profit per annum on any capital invested by the government in supporting the scheme in its early stages or any capital extension that has been necessary in the Postoffice Department. Such an operation in private banks would be dignified by the term 'profiteering' and a public demand would require investigation by the attorney general. The depositors are the poorest and least wise of the community and deserve especial care." Mr. Hoover declared that it "would seem only justice" if the whole method of payment of interest should be reorganized so as to approximately distribute the profits back to the depositors. He said the postal savings banks were established for the prime purpose of enlarging the area of national savings. He asserted the stimulation to savings was not interest return but merely the inducement of safety. "The real question at issue," he said, "appears to me to be not only justice to depositors but also whether the aggregate of national savings can be increased by offering a larger return on postal savings deposits, whether more savings can be pulled out of stockings, waste and luxuries and 'wildcats' every dollar so saved is a contribution to national welfare." While Mr. Hoover said he had no doubt of the validity of the principle that the government through the postal savings banks, should not compete with mutual and other savings banks, he said the first thing that should be done is to pay interest at the rate of $ \frac{1}{2} $ per cent quarterly on average deposits. "This," he added, "is only a matter of justice and is the application of the law at the rate of 2 per cent per annum, not 1 per cent as at present." Mr. Hoover said he preferred establishment of some institution modeled after the Farm Loan Bank rather than have mortgages on new construction exempted from the income tax. U. S. Vessel Seizes Oil. Martinez, Calif. — The navy ship Kanawha drew alongside the docks of the Shell Oil Company and appropriated 15,000 barrels of fuel oil for the Mare Island navy yard Cotton Goods Corning Down. Manchester, N. H.—A reduction of $33\%$ per cent in the price of manufactured cotton goods has been announced by the Amoskeng Manufacturing Company of this city. The present weekly production of the company, which employs 10,000 operatives in its cotton departments, is 4,000,000 yards. Fear that the cotton market, already unsettled, because of heavy cancellation orders, might reach a condition similar to that which has forced the closing of the company's woolen department is given in the announcement as the reason for the price reduction. Kept Jewels for Reward. Chicago.—Jewels valued at $25,000 belonging to Mrs. J. M. Hixon, wife of a Los Angeles millionaire, which had been missing for more than a week, were recovered here with the arrest of a taxi driver. The chauffeur said Mrs. Hixon had left the jewels in his cab and that he had been keeping them for a possible reward. He was released when Mrs. Hixon declined to prosecute him. Tombstone Falls on Child. Chicago.—Little John Borovicka, 2 years of age, is dead, killed by his pet cemetery lamb of marble—the snow white, fleecy-looking tombstone piece that little John learned to embrace while his mother and her three older children knelt and prayed at the adjoining grave—the resting place of the victim's daddy. The accident occurred while the mother and other children were kneeling in prayer at the grave of the husband and father. A. HASER, Prop.

THE handsome fur-trimmed suit shown in the accompanying picture includes, among other attractions, the newest points of the autumn styles. It begins by accepting the vogue for velours and continues to follow fashion's signposts by buttoning straight up the front from waistline to chin and by adopting the high, rolling collar of fur. Its narrow belt of velours crosses at the front and buttons at each side in the manner generally approved for coats—the styles of the hour are written in its lines. But, with all this following of important phases of new modes, the designer of this suit succeeded in being original by cutting the coat and fur trimming on unusual lines. The bottom of the coat at the front and In the Realm of Neckwear M. NECKWEAR is a broad term that embraces many different kinds of neckpieces and matched sets—including vestees and cuffs. Up to the present time nothing new or unusual has made its appearance in the realm of neckwear, but we may look for new developments soon, as the holidays dawn over the horizon of fashion. It is impossible to predict how important these particular accessories may become. At present organdie, in white and light colors, or lace and net, continue to make the dainty collar and vestee or collar and cuff sets that enjoy an unabated popularity. These sets are displayed with the new suits and very often ecrun or tan organdie replaces the pure white or light colors that have embellished summer clothes. Fillet lace and the perennial "val" still hold first place, although other laces are gaining attention. These neckpieces tone up frocks and suits amazingly—it is not likely women will part with anything so becoming unless they can replace it with another they like as well. Many sets are made at home, as the manufacturers have placed bandings of organdie which make the work easy, among the ready-made pieces. These bandings are tucked or lace trimmed and come in pale colors and white. One may buy also net with tucks, puffs, lace insertions and edgings which are easily made up into neckwear. back is cut in a wide scallop and the fur burrier is graduated in width-wide at the center of the scallop and narrowing toward the ends. Beaver is the fur employed on a light brown velours, but any of the short-haired furs might be used instead on colors they look best with, as sealskin on taupe or squirrel on royal blue. The second suit in the group is adapted to any of the wool suitings and has a coat cut finger-tip length, with skirt gathered on to the body. A panel in the back, outlined with embroidery, embroidered bands at the front and a high fur collar bring it up to the level of suits for formal wear, and made in sturdy materials it will prove very dependable for all-round wear. A collar and vest of net and lace appear in the picture. The collar is a straight piece of the ready-prepared material and this gives it the proper adjustment on the neck—which is somewhat high at the back. The vestee is extended below the waistline and in this regard it differs from most vestees, but the little apron effect is pretty. Julia Bottomly The oriental continues to hold sway in the hat realm. No somber shades are shown. Leading colors are copper, royal and Algerian blue, mahogany, cerise, jade green, chow brown and canary yellow. Gaudy embroideries in soutache, wool, tinsel, metallic threads and celluloid or wooden beads carry out the eastern effect. The Hindu and Chinese coolie turbans are still much in evidence, as are the summer novelties made of wooden shavings dyed in gorgeous hues. The combination of the shavings with duvetv of a contrasting color is very popular. Trimmed With Drawn Work. Many of the volles and georgette blouses are trimmed with drawn work. Small beads and elaborate handwork are also being used. FRANK S. REED, Licensed Embalmer and Director Lady Assistant. Polite Service to all. PRANK S.
