THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE EXPOSES CONQUEST IN HAITI State Department Busy "Explaining" Reign of Terror In Negro Republic--Congressional Investigation Predicted VOL. XXVI. NATIONAL ASSOCIATION ADVANCEMENT OF EXPOSES C State Department Busy "Exp Negro Republic--Congressio AFTER five years, during which the invasion of the island of Haiti by United States marines was shrouded in secrecy, silence has been broken by James Weldon Johnson, acting secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, who was sent to Haiti by that organization to investigate. Mr. Johnson's charges have been reiterated by Senator Warren G. Harding in his campaign for the presidency, and the state department has had to reply to numerous editorial attacks made by newspapers to which the N. A. A. C. P. investigation supplied facts. In brief, Mr. Johnson's indictment of the Wilson administration's course in Haiti recites: 1. That the island of Haiti was seized by United States marines and that in five years some 3,000 natives were shot. 2. That the Haitian assembly was dispersed by force at the order of an American officer of marines, and that the Haitian republic has been virtually overthrown. 3. That a convention was forced by the United States upon the Haitian government, changing the constitution of Haiti, so that Americans could purchase and own land there. 4. That the invasion of Haiti and the conduct of Haitian affairs had been unduly benevolent to the National City Bank of New York, whose vice president, Roger L. Farnham, had represented the state department in Haiti. 5. That the salaries of the president and other officers of Haiti were withheld because the Haitian government refused to turn over the National Bank of Haiti to the National City Bank, alleging that an agreement previously made had been tampered with. Among the newspapers which have editorially demanded explanations from the state department of the occupation of Haiti are the New York Evening Post, the Globe and the Tribune. The secretary of state, in reply to Mr. Johnson's charges, published several statements announcing that General Lejeune, commandant of the marines, and Admiral Knapp had been sent to Haiti to investigate. He also insisted the intentions of the United States in Haiti had been "benevolent." Mr. Johnson thereupon replied, asking for a Congressional investigation of affairs in Haiti and charging that the investigation by General Lejeune and Admiral Knapp would probably result in an official whitewash. Latest advices to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People indicate that a Congressional investigation will be held as a consequence of Mr. Johnson's charges. State Hst. & Nat Hst. 908 State House THE ONLY RELIABLE COLORA ON FOR THE COLORED PEOPLE CONQUEST IN HAITI Blaining" Reign of Terror In nal Investigation Predicted BRITISH CHARGED WITH CRUEL- TY TO NATIVES. London.—An indictment of British treatment of Negroes in British East Africa is made by Sir H. H. Johnston, writing in the Observer. "Many of the assertions made before the Negro conference in New York," he says, "were wild and windy, but it behooves our colonial office to see plain justice done to 4,000,000 black and brown people in this 'colony' and 'protectorate.'" Numerous instances of bullying, flogging and torture are cited by the writer. "The natives," he says, "are slowly coalescing, Bantu with Nilote, Mohammedan with Christian and pagan, Somali and Galla with hitherto despised Negro in their common hatred of the invading white man, owing to the exceptional cruelties which have stained the white man's record during this period of fifteen years. These are not cruelties of soldiers of policemen of government servants or any kind, but of individual settlers, British or Boer in origin. "Not only have murders, light-hearted murders, of natives taken place all too frequently, not only have revolting cruelties been committed, but when the white delinquents are brought up for trial, white juries acquit them or white judges inflict trivial penalties, or rebellious public opinion forces a governor to revise a sentence. I doubt if capital punishment for murder has ever been imposed on a white man in East Africa. "Again, in the great war, thousands and thousands of native porters were compulsorily enrolled by our government or by the military authorities in the unhappily-styled 'protectorate' and the arrangements for their commissariat, their medical treatment, their lodging and clothing have been miserably inadequate, with the result that some 23,000 to 25,000 of them (it was reported) died during the pursuit of the German forces. "The survivors have retained tongues and the power of speaking; some even had been mission educated and when 'Dora' (Defense of the Realm act) took her hand off the mail service, they have stammeringly told the world outside Africa something of their preventible sufferings and even of singularly callous and sometimes cruel treatment at the hands of the military authorities. "Now the culminating incident is this. Some two months ago there occurred at Nduru, in British East Africa, cases of flogging and torture so severe that, according to a medical officer's report, in some cases 'the flogged natives die from the torture and flogging.' These crimes seemingly were committed on a European's plantation. The Europeans, in what is now termed a DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2 1920 colony,' apparently take the law into their own hands and administer punishment as they please." AMERICA FIRST! AMEN. (By Jonathan Cover.) The question of the adoption of the Covenant of the League of Nations as framed at Paris and brought by Mr. Wilson to the American people for their adoption, without "the dotting of an i or crossing of a t," has a very real and serious interest for all Americans and for no class of our citizens more than for the American Negro. Spokesmen for the administration and for the Democratic party are at great pains to repudiate the interpretation Republicans have put upon Article X, through which they claim our soldier boys would, under its provisions, be subjected to over-sees duty at the mandate of the League "to preserve the integrity and independence of a threatened member." This Article X specifically promises just that thing and nothing less, and no camouflage of diction can impose a different meaning or extract the "teeth" which grip and pledge Americans for foreign service. Negroes of America, brave and heroic as they have proved themselves in every crisis since Bunker Hill, will not recede from any honorable engagement their country may make. It is their country and they are true Americans. They have proved their loyalty and devotion to the Flag very recently under the most discouraging circumstances and having succeeded in helping to make the "world safe for democracy are now concerned only in making every section of their beloved country a "zone of safety" for Negro citizens. It is a big job, but his will is strong and he's not easily discouraged. Thanks to that strong group of Republican senators who were not afraid to take a chance on "breaking the heart of the world" the people themselves will soon have the opportunity of expressing themselves on this as on other issues. In this connection the subline and forceful suggestions of the Father of His Country in his Farewell Address are particularly pertinent, he says: "Europe has a set of primary interests which to us have none or a very remote relation. Hence she must be engaged in frequent controversies, the causes of which are essentially foreign to our concerns. Why forego the advantages of so peculiar a situation? Why quit our own to stand upon foreign ground? Why, by interweaving our destiny with that of any part of Europe, entangle our peace and prosperity in the toils of European ambition, rivalship, interest, humor or caprice." Surely here the issue is clearly joined. The choice lies between the proven righteousness and the wisdom of the immortal founder of our country and the specious and selfish sophistries of an unstable and overreaching diplomacy. The Republican candidate, far from being cold and unconcerned, has the utmost sympathy for the distress and bitter antagonism which are apparent among the nations across the seas, but, with Washington, he believes the paramount interest and duty of Americans lie on this side of the water. America first, says he, and so say we. Amen. W. H. JUDGE GREELEY W.

Vote as follows: For Judge of Supreme Court | GREELEY W. WHITFORD | X THE GREED FOR GOLD. TURN where you will or may and you will find that the insatiable greed for gold has blasted the careers of many bright and promising young men. Today all eyes are focused upon the former eight brilliant baseball stars of the Chicago White Sox, not with that feeling of pride and admiration of yesterday for their almost miraculous playing, but with a feeling of contempt and disgust at their awkward and criminal crookedness in attempting to disgrace the great national sport of baseball by selling out for a mere pittance. the great salaries paid to white players were considered too much to give to a colored player, regardless of his skill or ability. It is to be regretted that such men as these baseball crooks ever found their way into the game. Yet, why are we so shocked? Do we not read and see daily occurrences where some trusted and capable bank cashier, teller or bookkeeper has absconded with the bank's funds? It is all because of the greed for gold. Too many men are not satisfied with what they can earn honestly and hence they become impatient and break over the traces and take hold of tainted money. It is like murder; it will surely come out. You Think of men receiving the princely salary of from ten to fifteen thousand dollars a year for a summer season's work, selling out and throwing a game of baseball for less than a year's salary, deceiving the public, themselves and their manager. This is the most contemptible little deal in double-crossing that has ever come to light. Had it been a horse race, a foot race or a prize fight, we would have expected such work. But in baseball the public has grown up and followed and encouraged and patronized the game because it was one athletic sport believed to be clean, manly and beyond the pale of crookiness and corruption. But not so with these poor depraved and deluded players. They have forever blackened and ruined their careers. Forever held up to public scorn and their former brilliant work gotten in their confession of guilt, national baseball was the biggest and most profitable game extant. True that colored players were barred from the great leagues, not so much because of color prejudice, but because TESMAN presents to the voters of son for election to the position of from his experience as a jurist, in ing of the law, never forgets the with mercy. Some of Judge Whites: "Courts should carefully serucean justice and the people," also do injustice to litigants when apent in the heart of the public, and publishing greater confidence in him tuesday, November 2nd, will prove use the wisest and best men from date matters for their betterment.

You cannot possibly hide it. This is a good thing in some respects. It may serve to impress some young man the value of honesty and the impossibility of making a living dishonestly. These young men have not only disgraced themselves, but think of how their wives and children will suffer. Never again to be trusted in, anyway, by anyone. The professional, heartless gambler has no more use for him. He used him for the time being to turn his trick and win a stake. Now that he is exposed, he has no further use for him. The gamblers that ruined these eight young men will readily find more prey, and so it happens all for "the greed for gold." Mr. Comiskey is due the plaudits and appreciation of the loyal sporting public when he instantly suspended these debauched baseball crooks from his team, notwithstanding the great financial loss he suffers and the possible winning of the national pennant. We take off our hat to Comiskey and urge that these self-confessed crooks be punished to the full extent of the law. NO.51 Charles Brown Owner of Hundreds of Acres in Heart of Rich Texas Oil Belt All Under Lease, Dies at Age of 90—Reputed to be Worth $2,000,000. LIVED SIMPLE AND FRUGAL LIFE. Was Successful Farmer and Frequently Drove to Town in Wagon and Was Familiar Figure on Streets—Children Drove High-Priced Machines. West Columbia, Texas., Sept. 23—Charles Brown, who died at his home here a few days ago at the age of 90 years, was probably the wealthiest, but one of the most unostentatious Negroes in the world. He is believed to have left a fortune of considerably more than a million, some estimates placing the figure at $2,000,000. It is known that Brown owned at the time of his death about 3,600 acres of land, a considerable part of which is in the heart of the wonderfully productive West Columbia oil field, all under lease. He received an enormous revenue from oil wells under the one-eighth royalty clause which is in all the lease contracts. He was also a successful farmer during his long life. He leaves a family of several children and a number of grandchildren. Although the aged Negro did not set store by a reckless display and expenditure of money, he was liberal in providing for his children. Brown's physical and mental condition was vigorous up to a few days before he died. He made no change in his manner of living when fortune came to him. He was a familiar figure on the streets of West Columbia and surrounding country. Frequently he was seen driving along the roads and streets in a farm wagon. Although his children rode in high-priced automobiles their father was content to follow the even tenor of his old life. He was always held in the highest respect by the white people of the town and section. WOODLAND, CALIFORNIA NEWS. Mrs. J. T. Muse is much disturbed over the sad news of the death of her mother, who passed away in Virginia a few days ago. The Second Baptist Church has completed the remodeling of their church and everything is looking fine. This church will entertain the General Baptist Association of Northern California beginning October 4th and closing October 10th. There will be between 75 and 100 delegates and visitors to attend this association, which will make a great week at the Second Baptist Church. The Missionary Society of the church gave a two nights' bazaar last week and cleared above all expenses $65. This was indeed good. The Mission Society has presented to the church a full stock of all kinds of dishes. So there will be plenty of dishes for the delegates, any way, if not plenty of food. Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Earl motored to Sacramento Saturday and attended a birthday party of their daughter, Mrs. Fred Hays. It is rumored that there will be a marriage in Woodland pretty soon. Mr. Albert Bardain was down from Esparto and attended the Bazaar one night last week. Mr. Simon of San Francisco, who is a delegate from the Third Church of that city to the general association, is visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Guss Galther of Esparto, while waiting for the convening of the association.

THE progress of the world indicates that contentment is one of the greatest afflictions that can beset mankind. If contentment were an asset that could never be disturbed this assertion might not be regarded as true, but as progress brings power and power ever seeks its own increase, a contented people and, therefore, a non-progressive people, is sure, in time, to become the prey and the serf of the restless elements of humanity. That discontent which makes a people strive ceaselessly for greater power is not an attribute of unhappiness, as unhappiness is measured in the minds of men, for the knowledge of increasing power is a greater source of happiness than the knowledge of temporary but precarious peace and plenty. The assurance of security and the inherent power of self-protection is the greatest asset of happiness that a people can attain, and this condition of self-sufficiency can only be maintained by ceaseless effort and striving. The unequalled power of the Caucasian races has grown out of this unremitting effort for self-security and improvement. It has carried them to the nominal mastery of the world, and made all meek and contented races their subjects or their prey. It is asserted in the individual the same as in the collective races, and is reflected in the pride, the self-assumption and the authority over others which the power of their kind makes them to feel to be their heritage and their right. The development of a similar power in other races is the only thing that preserves the autonomy of those races and gives them respect and independent character and standing in the world. Japan is an illustration of this development. China, too big to be entirely subjugated, but long the object of exploitation, is slowly gathering her might behind the spirit of discontent. India, England's subjected race, is seething with unrest. The Negro remains the only great race on earth that is content. In the depths of barbarity there is no ground for censure, but the Negro in civilization is far too easily satisfied. The liberty for which he strives is not of that insatiable character which yearns for self-reliance and independent power. He has not yet caught the spirit of unrest, though of all freemen his lot is the hardest. Individually he is too content with peace and little. Those who direct the activities of this groping race ought to endeavor to make more and more keen the discontent and unrest which its real progress depends. DOUGLASS REJECTED. WHEN the name of Frederick Douglass was proposed to the Board of Awards of the New York University as worthy of being placed in the Hall of Fame, it attracted no small degree of publicity. Indeed his nomination for such an honor was a just tribute to his sterling worth and Americanism. As an ex-slave he became known to the world as the greatest anti-slavery exponent in America. As an orator he had but few equals, and as a diplomat he bested the late James G. Blaine on a memorable occasion, which created considerable comment in diplomatic circles. Of America's greatest men, regardless of race or color, impartial historians will concede that Frederick Douglass was the peer of America's greatest statesmen. Mr. Cleveland G. Allen, a prominent newspaper man, who was big enough to nominate Frederick Douglass for a bronze tablet in the Hall of Fame, recognized in the life and character and accomplishments of Frederick Douglass all the qualities that would entitle a man to such a place in history. Douglass saved a nation as well as a race, for slavery was fast dividing the nation against itself. By his matchless eloquence and logic and fearlessness in exposing the cruelties of slavery, he aroused the nation against the blackest and most barbarous institution that ever disgraced a nation. Surely this man has clearly won fame and a right to be placed in the Hall of Fame. No reason is given by the Board of Awards for rejecting the name of Frederick Douglass, yet we are forced to surmise. If Gen. Robert E. Lee, confederate commander, who fought to destroy the Union and perpetuate slavery is worthy of a bronze tablet in the Hall of Fame, why not give Frederick Douglass, even though he be a Freeman, who saved the Union and destroyed slavery, a niche in the Hall of Fame? We are accustomed to such consistency, even at the hands of supposed educated philosophers. The name of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass are inseparable in the minds of the people of this country. Douglass pleaded and exposed and Lincoln executed and enforced. In all history Frederick Douglass is recorded as the greatest Negro of his race, and now to be the first of his race to be nominated for a place in the Hall of Fame and rejected is both unjust and unreasonable, and the Board stands before the world convicted as a narrow, prejudiced and biased body. But notwithstanding the decision of the Board of Awards, the fact remains that Douglass' name is a household word in America and that the city of Boston, the intellectual fountain of the nation, has named a plaza in his honor, and in Rochester, N. Y., his home, a colossal monument has been erected by all the citizens of that city to perpetuate his name and fame. The belief is universal that the board rejected the name of Fredrick Douglass solely upon the grounds of prejudice. Examine the tablets now in the Hall of Fame and any unbiased, unprejudiced scholar or historian would decide that by all the rules that governed the board in making the awards, Frederick Douglass would be far more entitled to a bronze tablet than many who have been so honored. Frederick Douglass' fame rests upon the fact that he fought for human freedom and won. He made many sacrifices and labored long in behalf of a race that was held in cruel bondage, and did more than any other man in America to destroy the most evil institution that ever disgraced a nation. If such noble work does not deserve a tablet in the Hall of Fame, then such an institution is but a mockery. Movement to Eliminate the Defective Should Begin in the Schools. Movement to Eliminate the Defective Should Begin in the Schools. BY ARTHUR WOODS, Former New York Police Commissioner. We have been very amateurish in our handling of the question of criminal defectives. Prevention, of course, is the great aim. We do not want to wait until a crime has been committed before we do anything about the feeble-minded offender. It is only fair to the individuals affected, as well as to the public, that examination should be made very generally and that the proper kind of treatment should be given to those who are suffering from mental diseases. We recognize this in bodily diseases, yet in many cases they are nothing like so dangerous to the community M. as these mental troubles. Many a child who is slightly deranged may in growing up become steadily worse because of unfavorable associations and lack of skilled treatment. I believe it is possible to redeem a considerable proportion of defective children if their cases are diagnosed early and if they are given kind and skillful treatment. There is no duty that I can think of which is more obligatory upon a community than to give children a fair chance—the children who particularly need help in order to overcome the handicap of mental deficiency which may bring to them later such terrible results. The beginning of a movement to eliminate the defective from our midst should start in the schools. Examinations should be made and children who are dull, stupid and unpromising, but as yet not criminals, should be separated and treated. If it is found that after kind and prolonged treatment the child cannot be made normal he should be put permanently in an institution. "Workmen Don't Want Philanthropy; They Want a Fair Deal All Around." By W. H. TODD, President Todd Ship Yards Corporation. No! I gave that million to the boys because it was coming to them, because they had earned it, because I promised it to them. I didn't really give it away, at that. We're all working together. We all did pretty good work for the last four years and I simply was giving the gang I work with a split on what was made. Four years ago I gave each of our men a chance to put down his name for a piece of stock. Loyalty of labor? You can't buy that with a million times a million. Incentive to increased efficiency? There's not a big man in our outfit who was not lifted out of the ranks by his own effort. Philanthropy? Workmen don't want philanthropy. They want a fair deal all around. Maybe there's a lack of common sense in high places. There's a lot in both sides understanding each other. It seems to me the present difficulty is due to too much propaganda and too little hard work. What makes an American workman sick is the chap who gets in a hole of his own making, then runs to the workmen, throws his arms around them, and begs them to help him out. On the other hand there's the workman who says he can't work longer than six hours a day, and when he gets six hours complains that six hours' pay isn't enough to live on. Why doesn't he work longer, then? I'm working more hours a day now than I ever did. Steady Increase in Divorces Means a Devastated Chicago in 30 Years. If the present rate of divorces continues in Chicago for the next generation the city will by 1950 be more desolate than any of the war ravished cities in France. Take the figures of the last ten years, for instance, as far as they are available. In 1911 there were 30,417 marriages and 3,442 divorces, or once out of each 8.83 marriages failed; in 1915 there were 31,509 marriages and 4,116 divorces, or one divorce to every 7.65 marriages. The increase of divorce over marriage in that period was 13.3 per cent. The years following, being war years, cannot be taken as normal. But last year, the first full year of peace, there were 37,583 marriages, while the local judges handling divorce cases estimated there would be between 5,000 and 6,000 divorces. Taking the mean of the two figures, or 5,500, it would show one divorce for every 6.83 marriages, or an increase of approximately 23 per cent over the divorce rate of 1911. Three decades more, at that rate, will see divorces equaling the number of marriages. Take the figures for 1914, a normal peace year. Out of 3,577 families getting divorces, only seventy owned their homes; in 2,171 cases, or nearly two-thirds, there were no children. Increasing childlessness, especially among our native American people, the growth of the apartment habit, and the tendency toward ease, indulgence and fast living only presage more divorces, more broken homes, and greater menace to the future of America. "The Best Advice I Can Give to Women With Nothing to Do—Go to Work." By MRS. WALTER WILLETT, Chicago. I have a husband, a home, a car and a prize bulldog—but I have taken a job and gone to work. The day is coming when there won't be any silly, idle women, waiting for hubby to come home and then dragging him out at night when he is tired and wants rest. The clinging vine days are gone. The homes are going to be happier when women who haven't children to care for go out and get jobs for themselves. I got mine without a suggestion from anyone and without telling my husband. I've been a bridge-playing, day-sleeping loungeabout long enough. My husband says it improves my disposition as well as my understanding of how men come home tired at night and while he is too surprised to understand it all yet. he likes it. It is the best advice I can give women with nothing to do—go to work. --- "It is not impossible—it is not even difficult—for a Congressman to be fair to all." PETER H.

Listing among its members a former United States army nurse who holds decorations for valor from Great Bri- tain, France and Belgium, the London post of the American Legion is active- ly engaged In cementing the friendship between the two English-speaking countries. ‘The post, which has 110 members draws its personnel from the American embassy, American consul- ates, the U. 8. Shipping Board, Ameri- can Relief Administration, U. 8. Army Liquidation Commission, Graves Regls- tration Service and from a host of pro- fessions and businesses. In It are law- yers, chemists, journalists, engineers, salesmen, valets and chauffeurs, all Joining in the activities of the first unit of the American Legion to be estab- lished in Europe. Miss Alice Emerson Findley is the woman member of the post. She ean ee AIM IS TO BE OF SERVICE Theodore Roosevelt Sums Up Princi- ples of Legion Before Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. “We are service men and service women, ‘That 1s our alm—to be of service to this country.” With those words ‘Theodore Roose- velt, son of the late ex-President Roosevelt, summed up his speech on the aims and principles of the Amer- ican Legion, delivered before the Chamber of Commerce of Cleveland, 0. Three things, he declared, were agreed upon in organizing the Legton. They were: ‘That the Legion should be a purely service organization with absolutely no distinction of rank between gen- eral and private, admiral and gob. ‘That the Legion must be non- partisan and must concern Itself with policies, not polities. ‘That there must be no distinction drawn between branches of service, between those who served overseas “and those who waited at home. ““ephe American Legion 1s golng to be the biggest stabilizing influence In ‘America, in these disturbed times,” he sald, He cited a letter from his fa- ther, written In 1918, In which the for- mer president predicted that the dan- ger in this country Iny in the tendency to swing from extreme to extreme— from radicalism to reaction and vice versa. To show that the Legion does not care for politics Mr. Roosevelt pointed out that the first national commander, Colonel Lindsey, was a Democrat “while I,” he sald, “am suspected of being a Republican.” “The United States army,” he con- tinued, “was a democratizing influ- ence, contrary to the belief of many.” He told of many Instances In his regi- ment to show the abolition of class distinction in the service. NO INTRODUCTION IS NEEDED “Speak to the Buddy With the But- ton,” Slogan Adopted by Ohio Post. “Speak to the buddy with the but- ton” is the appeal expressed in a resolution passed by the branklin county council of the American Le- gion in Ohio. ‘This policy has been adopted by many other posts. The resolution follows: Whereas, during our service In the World War we greeted ench other whenever we met and ate, slept, fought ‘and shot craps together without In- troduction; and ‘Whereas, in civilian fe, we are compelled to remain closer to custom; Be it resolved, That the members of the American Legion of Franklin county, O., shall in the future regard the American Legion emblem as an ‘open introduction between wearers of same, thereby creating a more close- knit and friendly organization.

GREETING CABLED BY D’OLIER Legion Commander Recalls Sixth An- niversary of Great Britain's En- trance Into World War. On the sixth anniversary of Great Britain's entrance into the World War Franklin D'Olier, natlonal commander of the American Legion, cabled the following greeting to Field Marshal Earl Haig and Admiral Sir David Beatty: “Honor to the statesmen who had the courage to assume the responstbil- ity of that decision. Honor to the British millions who, with valor un- surpassed and hearts of oak, executed that decision on Britain's many fronts. When we contemplate what would have been the state of affairs in the wort today had not Britain acted as she did and when she did, the trials and difficulties of the present hour, however vexatious they may seem now to be, sink into comparative insignifi- cance. “United States forces have had the privilege of service on land and sea under British high command. The memories of the associations of those great days will never perish. They will perpetuate themselves in our hearts and thus serve to perpetuate the indissoluble friendship of the Brit- {gh and American peoples.” W. H. A. COLEMAN, Post Adjutant. Miss Chrystal Herne.

RR RRS VEN WTC MET MRM ENN There Majesty of Aerial Perspec- tive Can Be Realized. Writer Describes His Observations on an Airplane Trip—View Not to Be Compared With That at Sea Level. ‘The full majesty of the aerial per- spective can only be reallzed, writes Edward P. Warver in the Yale Re- view, when one Is above the clouds and the earth is shut off from view. In flying on an overcast day, when heavy banks of cumulus clouds tle at about §,000 feet, it 1s possible to ex: perience within a minute or two ev ery degree of fog and sunshine. When one is passing into the clouds the lower surfaces of which are ak most perfectly flat, there Is an in- stantaneous transition from shadow to complete atmospheric opacity, siml- lar in appeurance to a dense fog at the ground but differing somewhat from It in feeling, for the interior of a cloud seems to be “drier,” the alr less saturated with water vapor, than the fogs which are met with at sea or ashore. If the climb be continued a ‘few hundred feet farther, the airplane ‘passes again into clear air, but into ‘air now of clarity and brightness ‘worthy of Mediterranean skies and not at all to be compared with that at sea level. Above lies an almost cloudless sky, 'a sky the perfection of whose azure tints makes one long for the brush and the skill of Maxfleld Parrish to make permanent record where memory quickly fades and where photography cannot even suggest. Below, ahead, and all round, are the cumulus clouds, but they present a very different as- pect from that seen from the ground. The lower surfaces are flat and unin- teresting, but the upper parts are like ‘colossal billows which are constantly changing, rolling, eddying, whipping ‘to pleces, and forming again. The low- er surfaces le in shadow—a fact “which often gives to the most innocent ‘and fleecy of clouds the threatening ‘black appearance of “thunder heads,” but the upper surfaces are just ‘enough shaded in spots by the uneven- ‘ness of contour to afford relief, so that ‘they are not utterly dazzling, ‘The clouds are so sharply defined against the sky, so opaque, that {t fs ‘as difficult to believe that they con- ‘sist of ylelding vapor as it 1s for most people to believe in the reality of the ghosts of the traditional ghost storles “beings who retain all thelr earthly appearance and habiliments yet have no substance to resist a thrust or blow. A novice in flying 1s likely to ‘draw himself together and brace him- ‘self in his seat almost involuntarily in anticipation of the {mpact as the air- plane dives at 150 feet a second toward the white mass ahead, a mass which seems at least as solld as a snowdrift. ‘There is no Impact, no hesitation when the cloud Is reached, but the passen- ger suddenly reallzes that he can no longer see the blue above, that he can- not even see the wing tips of the alr- plane, though he knows that in a few seconds he will return to the condl- tions of the ground dwellers, so far as their view of the sky {s concerned. ast a iG Pa. a {he Ss SO Curtis 22 — Park & & ‘A i a Floral ane Company A a id FLORAL DESIGNS fU"wet u .

The purchase of expensive factory-made driers for fruits and vegetables often calls for an expenditure of several times the amount necessary to secure a good drier of either the homemade or factory-made type, according to the United States department of agriculture, which has made a study of the best types of driers for home use. Expensive Drier. The department has had its attention called to one drier now on the market selling at a price about five times what it would cost to construct a satisfactory substitute at home. While the interest which gardeners are everywhere manifesting in increased food production should result in increased use of driers, the department believes that a large money expenditure for such equipment ordinarily is not necessary. Information on Driers. For the benefit of those who prefer to make their own driers the department has published for free distribution pamphlets containing detailed information on the subject. One of the driers recommended is metal covered and is designed to stand on a cookstove or small furnace. A less expensive cookstove drier, also recommended, is made of lath, wire screen and canvas or heavy unbleached muslin. With either of these articles much of the garden's surplus can be conserved CORRECT RATIONS TO GIVE GROWING CHILD Mixed Diet of Animal and Vegetable Foods Best. Body Can Most Readily Obtain Materials Needed for Growth and Repair of Waste—Manner of Preparation is Important. [By United States Public Health Service.] It is a mistake not to give the growing child a ration of milk with each meal of the day. And along with this there should be, in proper proportion, those articles of food that go to make up what may be called a well-chosen diet. Experience has taught us that human beings thrive best on what is commonly called a mixed diet of animal and vegetable foods. It is from a diet of this kind that the body can most readily obtain the materials it needs for growth and repair of waste. The common foods which contain and, therefore, will supply the necessary food elements as as follows: Fruits and Vegetables.—These include apples, berries, bananas, oranges, etc., spinach, turnips, tomatoes, melons, cabbage, green beans, peas, green corn and many others. These supply the minerals needed for building the body and for keeping it in good working condition; they also supply needed acids which prevent constipation and serve other useful purposes. Meats and Meat Substitutes.—These are the foods rich in protein. They include moderately fat meats, milk, poultry, fish, eggs, dried beans or peas and some of the nuts. They provide body-building material. Cereals.—These are rich in the starches or fat-producing material and some of them come near to being complete foods. However, it would not be either wise or safe to live exclusively on wheat, rice, barley, oats and corn all the time. Potatoes and sweet potatoes are also in this class. Foods Rich in Fats.—Among these are bacon, salt pork, butter, oil, suet, lard, cream, etc. They are important sources of body building. In addition, when used in moderate portions, they add both richness and flavor to dishes that without them would not taste well. The important thing in planning a diet, however, is the provision of variety both in selection of foods served and in the manner of their preparation. Potatoes, for example, are an excellent food and universally eaten and enjoyed because they may be served in so many ways. If rice is on your bill of fare with meat, fruit, either fresh or cooked or canned, potatoes should be omitted, for the supply of starchy food is furnished by the rice. Making Cake Foundations. Making cake foundations where coffee is used in place of milk, it should be remembered that as coffee does not have the thickening properties of milk, a tablespoonful less to a cupful should be used than if one were using milk. 1 Drying Sliced Beets—Tray Is Part of a Home-Made Outfit. for winter use, thus materially reducing the food bills of the coming months.

Another sugar-saving wrinkle tested by the experiment kitchen is to add one-quarter teaspoonful of salt to each cupful of fruit juice for jelly or pulp for jam, marmalade and conserve. In the case of nonacid fruit this makes the absence of the full amount of sugar less noticeable. The salty taste will disappear after the product has stood for a few weeks, but the flavor will be much the richer for the addition of the salt. Salt was so used in England during the war, and the method suggested was based on reports of the process. With fruits of pronounced flavor, or where lemon and orange peel or spices are used for flavoring those with mild flavor, various sirups take the place of part of the granulated sugar. Usually half and half is the proportion used in substitution. PREVENTION OF "FLAT SOUR" Disagreeable Taste and Odor Can Be Avoided If Canner Uses Fresh Vegetables. Canned corn, peas, beans and asparagus may show no signs of spoilage to the eye, and still when opened may have a sour taste and a disagreeable odor. This trouble is known to the canner as "flat sour," and can be avoided, United States department of agriculture canning specialists say, if the canner will use vegetables that have been gathered not more than five or six hours, blanch, cold-dip, pack one jar at a time, and place each jar in the canner as it is packed. The first jar in will not be affected by the extra cooking. When the steam-pressure canner is used, the jars or cans may be placed in the retort and the cover placed in position but not clamped down until the retort is filled. Rapid cooling prevents overcooking, clarifies the liquid, and preserves the shape and texture. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Corn beer should be started to boil in cold water. A four-pound fish should make six or seven portions. Keep a good supply of thick holders handy when cooking. Scrambled eggs served with asparagus make an excellent dish. Scatter a few whole cloves around where ants are and they will disappear. THE KITCHEN CABINET Let us learn this sentence by heart: Someone has said that "true hospitality consists in having what you were going to have anyway, and not changing the cloth unless you were going to anyway." The most appalling thing about dishes of this sort is that they can be er a casserole dish is a great saving. Cassolet of Castelnaudary.—This is a historical dish. Soak a quart of lima beans; place them in a stewpan, with water to cover, and place upon the fire. When they begin to bubble remove from the heat, cover and set aside for an hour. Drain the beans; add fresh boiling water and set the beans again on the fire. Salt and let them cook until nearly done. Put two cupfuls of cold chicken, duck or any fat fowl, the drained beans, one onion, sliced, half a cupful of strained tomato, a quart of broth and a teaspoonful of kitchen bouquet all into a casserole. Bake one hour; uncover, sprinkle with bread crumbs and a little chopped parsley; brown and serve. Chestnuts en Casserole.—This recipe has appeared before, but is so good that it bears repeating: Remove the shells from three cupfuls of chestnuts, put into a casserole and pour over three cupfuls of highly seasoned chicken stock. Cover and cook in a slow oven for three hours, then thicken the stock with a tablespoonful each of flour and butter cooked together. Serve from the casserole. Lamb en Casserole.—Have three steaks cut from the leg. Put in a hissing hot frying pan to sear the surface and hold in the juices. Remove from the frying pan, brush with butter, sprinkle with salt and pepper and put into a casserole dish. Add one cupful of potatoes cut in cubes, one-half cupful of string beans, three-fourths of a cupful of carrots cut in thin strips, three slices of onion, two cupfuls of stewed and strained tomatoes thickened with two tablespoon-fuls of butter and flour well mixed together. Cook until the vegetables are soft and the meat tender. It's a satisfactory working arrangement where a husband gives his wife some judicious flattery and the wife gives her husband some judicious cookery. Small cakes with a cup of tea or a bit of fruit will often serve as a fin- Mix well and roll out very thin, cut with a biscuit cutter and bake in a hot oven until crisp. Favorite Cookies.—Take one cupful of shortening, one and one-half cupfuls of sugar, one-half cupful of sour milk, one teaspoonful of soda dissolved in the milk, a teaspoonful of grated nutmeg, flour enough to roll quite soft. Sprinkle each cookie as it is placed on the tin with a little granulated sugar. Bake a light brown. Molasses Cookies.—Take three eggs, one cupful of molasses, one cupful of brown sugar, one cupful of shortening, one cupful of sour milk, two teaspoonfuls of soda. Add flour to roll. Bake in a moderate oven. Pepper Nuts.—Take two cupfuls of molasses, one-half cupful of butter and lard mixed, one and one-half cupfuls of brown sugar. Let this come to the boiling point, cool and add one teaspoonful of cinnamon, cloves and allspice, and one-fourth of a grated nutmeg, one cupful of almonds and walnuts mixed chopped not too fine, the grated peel of half an orange, a teaspoonful or more of anise seed, one teaspoonful of soda dissolved in hot water, flour to roll quite stiff. Roll in small balls and bake in a quick oven. Boston Cookies.—Take one cupful of shortening, butter preferred; one and one-half cupfuls of sugar, three eggs, one tablespoonful of soda dissolved in one and one-half tablespoonfuls of hot water, three and one-fourth cupfuls of flour, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one teaspoonful of cinnamon, one cupful of chopped nuts, one-half cupful each of currants and raisins. Mix, drop and bake as usual. Crullers.—Take one cupful of sugar, three eggs, one tablespoonful of butter, one cupful of sweet milk, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, ork lightly with as little flour as possible. Cut in oblongs, slash with a sharp knife two or three slashes evenly from the edges and fry in deep fat. Roll in powdered sugar. Nellie Maxwell THE KITCHEN CAB "One ship goes east and another west While the self-same breezes blow, It's the set of the sails and not the gales. That bids them where to go. Like the winds of the air are the ways of the fates As we journey along through life; It's the set of the soul that decides the goal And not the storms or the strike." The individual ramekins are best adapted for all kinds of souffles, escaloped and devilled mixtures. Sweetbread Ramekins. —Clean and parboil a sweetbread and cut in cubes. Melt two table-spoonsfuls of flour and pour on gradually one cupful of chicken stock. Sweetbread Ramekins. Clean and paddle a sweetbread and cut in cubes. Melt two tablespoonfuls of flour and pour on gradually one cupful of chicken stock. Reheat the sweetbread in the sauce and add one-quarter of a cupful of heavy cream and one and one-half teaspoonfuls of beef extract. Season with salt, paprika and lemon Juice. Fill the ramekin dishes, cover with crumbs, well buttered, and bake until the crumbs are brown. Curried Sweetbreads.—Prepare the sweetbreads by soaking them in cold water, to which a tablespoonful of lemon juice or vinegar has been added. Remove and drop into cold water. When cold cut in circular pieces. Fry a sliced onion in two tablespoonfuls of butter or olive oil until lightly colored. Add two tablespoonfuls of flour; cook until well blended; add a cupful and a half of chicken stock and cook until thickened. Strain, season with salt, pepper, a teaspoonful of curry and a tablespoonful of tarragon vinegar or lemon juice. Let the sauce cook a moment; add the sweetbreads, turn into individual ramekins and bake about thirty minutes. Date Fluff-Duff.—Stew one cupful of dates until tender, first removing the stones. Put through a colander and mix with a cupful of sugar that has been mixed with a teaspoonful of cream of tartar. Beat the whites of five eggs, add a pinch of salt and when very stiff add the yolks of two and whip again. Mix lightly a little at a time, with the dates and sugar, and place in a buttered dish or ramekin. Sprinkle with one-half cupful of chopped nuts and bake fifteen minutes. Serve with whipped or plain cream. Any creamed fish, meat or vegetable, if well seasoned, covered with crumbs which have been well buttered, makes a nice hot dish for luncheon or supper. I'm glad the stars are over me And not beneath my feet, Where I should trample on them Like cobbles in the street. I think it is a happy thing That they are set so far: It's best to have to climb high When you would see a star! —Annette Wynne TIMELY SUGGESTIONS. A good workman takes care of his tools and takes pride in keeping them in good condition. Such utensils as turn with cranks and have oil in their gearings should never be put into water up to the gearing unless solled, then Such utensils as turn with cranks and have oil in their gearings should never be put into water up to the gearing unless solled, then wash quickly with clear hot water, using a brush, and immediately after using, dry thoroughly before putting away. Tins, sheet iron pans and all utensils subject to rust should be carefully dried before putting away. If not used often grease lightly with unsalted fat before putting away. Never put pans and kettles partly filled with water on the stove to soak. Fill them with cold water and soak away from the heat. Never drop kitchen knives or bone-handled knives in the water. Wash them thoroughly with a cloth in hot suds, then rinse and rub dry. Sieves, unless used for straining fat, should never be washed with soap, but cleaned with a brush, using soda, not soap, in the water. Graters should be cleaned at once after using with a small vegetable brush; rinse and dry before putting away. All saucepans and utensils should be cleaned on the outside with as much care as the inside. Add a few drops of rose water to almonds to prevent their olling when grinding them for small cakes or confections. Bread crumbs should be used instead of cracker crumbs for all foods to be fried, as the cracker crumbs absorb grease. Croquettes, meat balls and such dishes may be prepared and covered with bread crumbs the day before, and fried when needed. Under the seed division come the old-time anise and caraway, caramom, coriander, cumin, dill and mustard. Juniper berries, which have a fragrance most delightful, are much used in medicine and in some places are used in soups, sauces and pickles. Store root vegetables carefully for winter use. Lay in the stock of potatoes, for they are sure to be high in the spring. Can what you can and dry the rest. The widespread use of vegetables will mean better health for the family.

THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY ished with buttonhole stitch in heavy silk, but the bottom of the smock is embellished with a handsome border in solid embroidery. Both the button-hole stitch and a motif from the border appear on the hat drapery. No seamstress will find it difficult to make a smock of this simple character, and she can at least prepare the material to be draped on a hat shape, leaving it to a professional milliner to place it to the best advantage. IT SEEMS there is always something new to be done with smocks and blouses, and now that there is a furore for embroidery on everything and a craze for ribbons, designers appear to have centered their thought on decorations for these necessary and attractive belongings. And, since nothing escapes the embroidery needle, it has occurred to modlistes to bring hats and blouses, or smocks, into close relationship. We find them now made of the same materials and embroidered in the same patterns. The prettiest of the new ribbon trimmed smocks and blouses are made of taffeta and trimmed with plaid, striped or figured ribbons, plaids and stripes having the preference. They are suited to tailored clothes and are worn with suits or tailored skirts, the ribbon appearing on hats of duvety, felt, beaver or of fabrics, in smart bows and bands. This smock and hat combination is quite a new departure that may give a good account of itself by the time midwinter comes in. One of these smocks, with hat to match, is presented in the illustration given here. Either velours or satin might be used for it, or, if not much in the way of warmth-giving is required of it, crepe de chine will answer. But for cool weather velours is the best choice, and sleeves might be provided of this material. The smock is the straight slip-over pattern, with belt of the material set loosely about the waist. Neck and arm-eye are fin- For Wear in the Afternoons S appreciation of the bustle dress. The drapery is bordered with a flounce of Chantilly lace. In order to accommodate a becoming touch of white the bodice is cut low at the front and a chemisette of white georgette, edged with lace, is gathered in across the opening. A reflection of summer styles lingers in the elbow sleeves with lace flounce, but the style tendency is toward long sleeves and high necks. Either of these dresses, while not particularly noteworthy for originality, will prove a useful possession in any wardrobe, fitting in against almost any background and easily toned up by the aid of smart hats. The fashion of combining two different materials in one frock is a great asset for the season's afternoon dresses, providing an easy means of making them interesting merely by ingenious combinations. But embroideries of silk or beads is above all things the embellishment that the season most approves. THE story of afternoon frocks is charming and it cannot be briefly told because they are so varied in character and in design. They range all the way from such unpretentious and simple affairs as those that bear each other company in the picture above, to elaborately embroidered and beaded models, handsome lace and velvet dresses and others, in the class of dinner gowns. But the simpler dresses are the first to be chosen and they are of the dependable kinds that fit in on many occasions. The dress at the left of the picture is made of velours with satin bands applied to it in a very wide crossbar pattern. The satin bands are very neatly machine stitched to place and appear only on the skirt, the short coat is plain and is one of the few models displaying a vestee. It has rounded turned-back cuffs of satin in three-quarter length sleeves and a satin collar. The always admired black satin afternoon dress appears in the frock at the right. It has an apron drapery that is long at the front but shortened to a flounce across the back, contributing by this means to acknowledge its Judia Bottomly Licensed Embalmer and Director Lady Assistant.
