THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Chief Executive of the Republic of Liberia Makes Official Call Upon the Chief Executive of the United States, Who Returns Official Courtesy—President Harding Expresses Great Interest in Future of African Republic Offspring of America. VOL. XXVII. HARDING RECEIVES Chief Executive of the Repu- Call Upon the Chief Ex- Who Returns Official C Expresses Great Interes- tic Offspring of America WASHINGTON, May 12. — For over a month colored Washington awaited adequate diplomatic recognition of the Plenary Liberian commission by the government of America. The long expected happened April 15. At 4 o'clock two White House automobiles drove up in front of the residence of the Liberian commission at 1317 R street northwest. Robert Wood Bliss, third assistant secretary of state, walked briskly up the steps of the R street home of the commission, where floated the one-starred Liberian emblem. In formal tones Secretary Bliss announced that the president of the republic of America would receive the president of the republic of Liberia, at the executive mansion. Fifteen minutes later the two automobiles stopped in front of the white house. Secretary Bliss, President King and Associate Justice Johnson of the Liberian Supreme court came out of the first auto and ascended the white house steps, pausing to wait for Mr. Morris, one of the commissioners, and Mr. Dennis, the secretary to the commission. The party entered the blue room, where Secretary Bliss presented President King to President Harding, Mr. King then presented the respective members of the commission to President Harding, who in turn presented the commission to Secretary of State Hughes. Mr. Hughes had met the commission before, but diplomatic procedure required a second presentation by Mr. Harding as a mater of course. A cordial and informal conference followed, in the course of which Secretary Bliss observed that "All the records had been searched, and this was the very first time in the history of America that the ruler of a foreign country was received at the white house." Incident Historic This incident is really one of historic significance. It is true that Mr Wilson had received the present President of Brazil, but at the time of the reception the Brazilian Chief Executive was only President-elect. When Albert, King of the Belgians, came to this country, Mr. Wilson was too ill to receive him. Harding Returns Visit. At 5 o'clock a third white house automobile drove up in front of President King's residence on R street. President Harding was returning the visit of the Liberian commission. Accompanied by his military aide, Mr. Harding entered the official residence of the foreign envoys, while white house secret service men waited at the entrance. The president spent some time with the commission. Mr. Harding took care to make President King realize that "The American government is always' interested in any nation whose ideals are democratic," and said further that he, himself, had always been deeply interested personally in the history and development of the African Republic. He also expressed the hope that the stay of the commission in America would be most pleasant. President King, in thanking Mr. Harding expressed the wish and the hope that the most highly developed trade relationship would soon exist between America and Liberia. Mr. Harding inquired of President King as to the chief exports of Liberia, and both presidents discussed the coffee production of Liberia at some length. The conference came to an end. President Harding again wished the commission a pleasant stay in America. The long looked for exchange of diplomatic courtesies between the president of America and the president of Liberia had taken place. FOUGHT A BANEFUL PLAY NEW YORK, May 7.—The Capitol theatre was the scene of racial excitement last night, when the colored people most forcefully, yet in an intelligent and orderly manner, manifested their displeasure of renewal of Ku Klux Klan propaganda and Thomas Dixon's infamous story, "The Birth of a Nation." Colored ex-service men in uniform, with many of their officers and flanked by many prominent women of the Race, picketed the theatre on all sides distributing circulars and waving banners which read: "We represented America in France—why should "The Birth of a Nation" misrepresent us here?" Others distributed circulars published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which demanded, "Stop the Ku Klux Klan Propaganda in New York." After the pickets had declined a police request to move on, five charged with being the ringleaders, including sented the association, h.6.Tietaoinsb three women who said they represented the association, were arrested. The others then departed. The prisoners were: Mrs. Helen Curtis of 252 W. 133d street, widow of James Curtis, who was minister to Liberia in the Taft administration; Mrs. Laura Jean Rollock of 385 Cumberland street, Brooklyn; Mrs. Katherine Johnson of 8 St. Felix street, Brooklyn; Edward F. Frazier, ex-service man and student of Columbia university, 2252 Seventh avenue, and Llewelyn Rollack, ex-sailor, of 385 Cumberland street, Brooklyn. The prisoners were followed to the station by Capt. Eugene L. C. Davidson, colored, of 149 W. 139th street, a Harvard graduate who was with Company D, 367th Infantry in France and First Lieutenant James C. Thomas, Jr., a colored lawyer, of 2202 Seventh avenue, both of whom were among the pickets. Davidson, who wore the Croix de Guerre, told the police he was in charge of the pickets but neither he nor Thomas was arrested. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 21 1921 ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION N. A. A. C. P. MAKES TEST CASE OF PROTEST AGAINST "BIRTH OF A NATION." N. A. A. C. P. MAKES TEST CASE OF PROTEST AGAINST "BIRTH OF A NATION." THE National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today issued a statement signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary, stating that a test case would be made of the protest against the performance in the Capitol Theatre, New York, of the motion picture, "The Birth of a Nation". "The colored veterans of foreign service who distributed leaflets in front of the Capitol Theatre," said Mr. Johnson's statement, "and were arrested for so doing are to make legal history in the courts of New York. On Thursday morning, May 12, in the West Side Court, Magistrate Ten Eyck offered to dismiss the charges against them if they would promise not to picket the Capitol Theatre any more. "Through their attorneys, Alken A. Pope and James O. Thomas, retained by the N. A. A. C. P., the pickets replied that they would not make any such promise and preferred to make a test case of it. Accordingly Magistrate Ten Eyck found them guilty and suspended sentence. The cases are now to be appealed by the N. A. A. C. P." "The New York ordinance under which the pickets were arrested prohibits the distribution of 'any hand bill, circular, card or other advertising matter' and the appeal to a higher court will be based upon the contention that the N. A. A. C. P. leaflet distributed by the pickets, showing up the Ku Klux Klan propaganda in the 'Birth of a Nation' cannot possibly be called 'advertising matter.' "The N. A. A. C. P. appeal will raise the entire question as to the right of people to protest by distributing educational literature in public in New York City. The question of the construction of the ordinance is a new one and has not before been raised. "The N. A. A. C. P. intends to fight the case until a conclusion is reached. The matter is entirely one of legal principle, as it was admitted in court by Magistrate Ten Eyck that no disorder was charged against the N. A. A. C. P. pickets. "The N. A. A. C. P. desires especially to commend those-pickets who were arrested for their courage and steadfastness. They are; Mrs. Helen Curtis, Mrs. Laura Jean Rollock, Miss Katherine Johnson, all of them Y. W. C. A. workers who served overseas and were under fire at the front; Edward F. Frazier, ex-service man and Columbia University student, and Llewelyn Rollock, ex-sailor." SCOTT TO GO TO ENGLAND Washington, D.C., May 13.—Dr. Emettt J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University, has been selected as one of the delegates of the Methodist Episcopal church to the ecumenical conference to be held in London, England, September 6 to 16, this year.

Secretary of Labor Explains Abolishment of Division of Negro Economics--Was Fundamentally Un-American, He Says. Washington, D. C.—Regarding the Division of Negro Economies, the secretary of labor made the following announcement: The so-called Division of Negro Economics has been abolished by the secretary of labor largely because there is no such thing as segregating the economics' of Negro wage earners from those of any other race. It is fundamentally un-American to create classes or to recognize classes. Our laws do not distinguish between white men and Negroes or any other class or classes. "It is recognized that there is a race distinction and sometimes it is very convenient to have the assistance of a representative of a race in dealing with the members of that race. So far as labor matters are concerned the race distinction becomes more pronounced in the field of collective bargaining when troubles between employers and employés threaten. For that reason a member of the Negro race has been appointed a commissioner of conciliation, who has been detailed to serve wherever the secretary may feel the need of race representation and to advise the secretary. "This change in policy so far has been working very satisfactorily. Much valuable information has been gathered regarding pertinent data and statistical information relative to Negro workers and a brief release is now available bearing on the approximate trend of industrial employment and unemployment among Negro toilers. The publications of the Department of 'Negro Migration in 1916-17' and 'The Negro at work during the World War and during Reconstruction' are still available for free distribution through the Department of Labor, Washington, D. C." COURT SAYS STOLEW WIFE IS WORTH " $1,000 AND COSTS" Hutchinson, Kan., May 13.—As a climax to the $10,000 suit, filed some months ago by Orval Craig, against Charles Fife (white), a shoemaker of this city, a jury composed of whites brought in a verdict in district court giving Craig judgment for $1,000 and costs. The story of how Fife had invaded the sanctity of Craig's home, stolen the affections of his wife, took her in his own home and how he made false charges against Craig in his attempt to humble and subdue him, was told in full to the jury. Fife and Mrs. Craig were raided in the former's home by policemen who went to the residence bearing a warrant signed by Craig. Fife declared the woman was his housekeeper, but the evidence contradicted this statement. RACENEWS Gathered From Various Sources ARKANSAS GOVERNOR SETS JUNE 10. AS DATE FOR EXECUTING 6 MEN Little Rock, Ark., May 7.—Governor McRay has set Friday, June 10, as the date for the execution of six colored men who were sentenced to death on murder charges growing out of the Elaine riot in October, 1916. NEGRO WHO ATTACKED COL ORED GIRL TO HANG Clyde, Ga., May 7.—Israel Waters, a Negro, convicted yesterday of attacking a colored girl, was sentenced to be hanged June 3. Israel was captured by members of his race after the commission of the crime. A number of white men tried to induce the colored people to lynch the culprit, but no such idea was permitted to ripen and the guilty man was turned over to the authorities for the due functioning of the law. In due course of time he was brought to trial and speedily convicted for the heinous offense. MRS. HELEN CURTIS SAVES FAM. ILYIS DEPORTATION Philadelphia, Pa., May 13.—Because of the quick action of Mrs. Helen Curtis, wife of the late James L. Curtis, former American minister to Liberia, the Rev. De Lyma, his wife and three children will not be deported. The pastor's wife was born in Thomasville, Ga., but since their marriage fifteen years ago have been living in the tropics. Mrs. De Lyma's marriage caused her to lose her American citizenship and when the family sought to return here deportation was talked. Mrs. Curtis secured a $1,500 bond, covering Mrs. De Lyma's stay for a year, and arranged with the management of the Frederick Douglass hospital to give her medical attention, due to the fact that her health had been impaired by years of work in Africa. HOWARD STUDENTS TOLD TO STUDY RACE HISTORY Washington, D. C., May 13.—During the campaign conducted by the Omega Psi Phi fraternity of Howard University to promote the reading of the history of the race and literature concerning the race, the students of the university were addressed on "Reading and Justice" by Nahum Daniel Brascher, editor in chief of the Associated Negro Press. Mr. Brascher called attention to the value of reading our history and the wealth of current literature as found in the newspapers and magazines published by the race. Many attempts, he said, had been made to enlist the support of white editors in doing justice to our people in the news dispatches published in their papers. It was his opinion that some good had been done. ANOTHER MURDER FARM HAS BEEN REPORTED IN GEORGIA Atlanta, Ga., April 25.—The existence of a "murder farm" similar to that of John S. Williams' is indicated in complaints received by federal au- NO 32 thorities from the southern part of the state. It was learned that these reports came from prominent merchants and business men in a small town in the southern district. The letters told the federal agents "conditions were unthinkable," and urged a government investigation without delay. When questioned concerning these reports, United States Attorney Hooper Alexander admitted the complaints had reached his office. "I passed them on to the Bureau of Investigation, and the farm in question will no doubt be investigated immediately, although the county in which it is located is without the southern district, and I have, therefore, no direct connection with it," he said. "Reports of brutal treatment of enslaved Negroes reach my office every day," said the district attorney, "and some of them cite the slaying of Negro farm hands in various parts of the state. Many such cases are now being inquired into." Mr. Alexander called attention to the condition he said now prevails in Georgia, and declared: "If we permit these conditions to continue, sooner or later we will suffer a dreadful retribution." PROMINENT TENOR WINS FAME IN EUROPE London, England, May 12.—Roland W. Hayes, the celebrated Negro tenor, has had fine recognition during his visit to London where he has been giving a series of recitals in the best concert halls. His accompanist, Mr. Brown, has been equally praised for his fine playing. Last November he was selected from among a group of American artists in London to sing the "Star Spangled Banner" at the Thanksgiving Celebration by Americans in London. Mr. Hayes left New York for Europe last year. The remarkable success he has enjoyed since coming to England culminated in an invitation from King George to sing before the royal family at Buckingham Palace. Mr. Hayes sang some beautiful numbers, among them some Negro Spirituals to the delight of the royal family. The king took occasion to compliment him on the excellence of his voice, its range and firmness and the skill displayed in the rendition of his songs. The king observed how different the Negro Spirituals were from what the English people have been taught to believe were the characteristic Negro melodies. Mr. Hayes was presented with a diamond pin by King George. BOMBING IN CHICAGO ATTRACT- ING NATIONAL ATTENTION. Washington.—Visitors from all parts of the country are commenting extensively on the continued bombing of property in Chicago, and the inability of officials to run down the potential burrowers. It is pointed out that Chicago is regarded as the most advanced example of cosmopolitan democracy in the country. The Negroes not only have civil and commercial advantages there but are holding more political offices and have more political power than in any other city in the country. The city, county and state are Republican in politics, and it is regarded as very singular that Mayor Thompson, an avowed friend of justice and fair play, has never uttered a word of protest officially against bombing, there being nearly 100 cases in the last year, the majority among colored citizens. The Associated Negro Press representative, following the bombing of the property of Oscar DePriest, took up the matter with Senator McCormick and Congressman Madden of Chicago, and while they both deplored the condition, they stated that it was a matter for local authorities to handle. Senator McCormick stated that he would use the Chicago situation as an argument for one of the necessities for federal action in the absolute protection of human lives. FOREIGN Gen.

Several years ago an attempt to wreck the canal by explosives was made at Thorold, a few miles from Allanburg. The peasants of Russia have thus far failed to respond to the appeal of the Bolshevist government to sow grain to enrich this year's harvest, according to reports. The soviet authorities are beginning to take a gloomy view of the prospects for next winter. Gens. Lucio Blanco, Eduardo Hernandez, Ireneo Villareal and Pablo Gonzales, former Carranza chieftains, who have been reported to be starting a revolution against the Mexican government from the United States side, have made an appeal to President Obregon for leniency if they surrender, according to official advices. The Argentine government, under an agreement reached with representatives of the labor organizations, will not permit nonunion labor in the port area.

The British Columbia liquor moderation act, providing for the government control and sale of liquor within the province, will become effective sometime after July 1, instead of on June 1, as had been originally planned. Inability of the provincial liquor board to prepare for the opening of the government stores June 1 was given as the reason for the delay. Francisco Villa, former Mexican bandit leader, expects to harvest a crop of 50,000 bushels of wheat this year, according to a report from Consul J. B. Stewart at Chihuahua, Mexico. Villa was said to have equipped extensively with modern American farming implements, including tractors and motor trucks, the large tract he is cultivating with the assistance of the Mexican government.

AMBASSADOR REJECTS LEAGUE GEORGE HARVEY ANNOUNCES APPOINTMENT IN DISCUSSION OVER SILESIA. OUTLINES NEW POLICY ENVOY MAKES PLEA FOR CLOSER CO-OPERATION BETWEEN TWO NATIONS. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) London, May 20.—The dinner of welcome by the Pilgrims' Society to the American ambassador, George Harvey, was enveloped in far deeper interest than usually attends such a reception to a new ambassador. Not only was it Mr. Harvey's first public appearance since his appointment, but there was general expectation that he would reveal something of the new administration's policy toward Europe. The ambassador did not disappoint his audience, for he brushed aside any lingering illusion that the United States would have any relations with the League of Nations. He also announced his appointment to represent the President in the Supreme Council in the discussion over Silesia. Mr. Harvey's plain words on the league were a revelation and his plea for the closest co-operation between the two great English-speaking countries was impressive. The British premier rather disappointed those who hoped for more of international plain speaking. He described the plight of Europe, enmeshed in ancient feuds, and gave warm welcome to the new co-operation of America in world affairs. The duke of Connaught presided and Lord Desborough read a message from the American Pilgrims. There were 350 diners, among them the duke of York and many members of the peerage and representatives of the American colony. Ambassador Harvey declared: "There still seems to linger in the minds of many here the impression that in some way or other America may yet be beguiled into the League of Nations. Let me show you how utterly absurd such a notion is. "I need not recall the long contest waged between the two branches of our government over the proposal. I need hardly mention that the conflict became so sharp that even the treaty went by the board, to the end that today, paradoxically enough, America continues to be technically at war but actually at peace, but according to all reports is not wholly free from the clash of arms. "Finally, the question of America's participation in the league came before the people who decided by a majority of 7,000,000. Prior to that election there had been much discussion of the real meaning of the word mandate. There has been little since. A single majority of 7,000,000 conveyed a mandatejority of 7,000,000 conveyed at mandate that could neither be mtsunderstood nor disregarded. "It follows, then, that the present government could not without betrayal of its creators and masters, and will not, I can assure you, have another thing to do with the league or any commission or committee appointed by it or responsible to it directly or indirectly, openly or furtively." Mr. Harvey paid tribute to the Pilgrims as the most distinctive link in the chain of blood relationship between the British and American peoples and one of the most potent agencies of civilization. "I inevitably, you to the east of us derive your information respecting our public opinion from the great cities on the Atlantic seaboard," he continued, "precisely as our friends to the west take theirs from the states on the Pacific. Inferences thus drawn may be right or wrong, but whether right or wrong their bases obviously are the subject of sectional influences. The heart of our republic lies in the great plain which stretches from the Alleghenies to the Rockies." Shoe Firms Form Merger. Boston, Mass.—The merger of two of the largest interests in the shoe industry, the International Shoe Company of St. Louis and W. H. McElwain Company of Boston, has been announced. Combined assets of the merged companies total approximately $40,000,000. I. W. W. Indorse Irish. Chicago.—The I. W. W. national convention indorsed what is termed the "struggle of the Irish workers against world imperialism." Indorsement of the Irish Republic movement, however, was distinctly withheld as being political. Cudahy's Children Get $60,000 Income. Los Angeles, Calif.—A petition asking the appointment of a guardian for two minor children of the late John P.

Pithy News Notes From All Parts of Colorado (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) George Gilmore, a rancher residing on the Lower Florida, about ten miles from Durango, has on display a freak in the nature of a two-headed calf. The calf was born dead. Alamosa established a city mail delivery on May 15. The requirements of the postoffice department in the matter of numbering houses and putting mail receptacles have been compiled with. The state convention of the Colorado Christian churches will be held in Colorado Springs May 24th, 25th and 26th. Arrangements are being made to take care of several hundred delegates and visitors. George W. Stewart, 76 years old, a pioneer rancher at Clear Creek valley, is dead at his home at Fruitdale, two miles east of Golden. Mr. Stewart was a veteran of the Civil war and had lived in Jefferson county since the early days. The members of the Grand Junction Rotary Club enjoyed a calf barbecue at the mouth of Monument canon, ten miles west of the city, and 150 people took part in the festivities. A big pit was dug and the veal was cooked over a cedar fire. The Rocky Mountain Climbers' Club has blazed a new trail from Boulder to the summit of Bear mountain through Fern canon. This club, which is composed largely of University students, has spent three Sundays on trips to Bear mountain. Charles Henry Wheeler, 74 years old, a pioneer banker of Greeley, died at Long Beach, Calif., of heart trouble following a long illness. Mr. Wheeler was born in Chicago March 30, 1847, and came to Colorado in 1875 and took a position with Emerson & West, the pioneer bankers of the Greeley Union colony. Mrs. F. W. Egan, policewoman, has been removed by Mayor Harris of Colorado Springs following two other ten-day suspensions by the chief of police. The only reason assigned is "for the good of the force," and it is stated that the reasons will not be made public unless she compels the mayor to do so. Mining shows a steady gain in the Cripple Creek district, with a number of lensers engaging in new work. Surface water, the result of recent storms, is causing some trouble. This, however, is of a temporary nature. Quite a number of former residents are returning to the district to engage in mining or in business ventures. Hugh Toohey, 55 years old, of Granby, Colo., was killed by a rock slide on the Moffat road near Azure. He, with others, was clearing away a rock slide that came down and buried the track eight feet for a distance of ninety feet. It is presumed that as this slide was cleared the loosened earth caused the second one. Nobody else was injured. The 2-year-old son of Charles Carlson, who resides south of Fort Morgan, was bitten by a rattlesnake. He died shortly after being bitten. The child was playing in the farmyard, and seeing the snake coiled nearby, approached it, not knowing the danger. He was rushed to a hospital but doctors were unable to save his life. The United Gold Mines Company is prospecting with a diamond drill in the Trail claim at Victor, some 200 feet below where the Anderson-Berkleman lease ceased operations. About ninety feet has been explored at an angle of 45 degrees, the drill core testing from $12 to $18 per ton in gold. The indications are excellent for a large body of high-grade ore. Fire of unknown origin which threatened for a time to destroy the entire town of Calhan, burned the Groves drug store to the ground, partially destroyed a large community store and caused a damage estimated at nearly $100,000. After a search of more than a year, Joseph Christopher of Fort Collins found his 5-year-old daughter, Sarah Adeline, at Cripple Creek, at the home of her grandmother. The child was restored to the father by Sheriff Von Phul. Christopher asserts the child was kidnapped by her mother and grandmother and taken to points in Kansas and Oklahoma and later brought here. A. A. Foster, 88 years old, who for many years was editor of the North American Review, is dead at Montrose. In 1868 he established the Wakefield Banner, which is still operating, and, after many other journalistic ventures, became the editor of the North American Review, which position he held until he was forced to come West because of his health. During his fourteen years' residence in Montrose he has continued his contributions to the Review and other national magazines. Marking the site of old Fort Pueblo, the scene of the Ute massacre of Christmas eve in 1854, at which time the entire white population of that district lost their lives, a large granite monument it to be erected on the north bank of the Arkansas river, between the levee and the new city hall building by Pueblo and Arkansas valley chapters of the D. A. R. Edward Stanko, 17 months old, the only child of Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Stanko of Pueblo, was drowned in the Booth irrigation ditch at the Stanko ranch, two miles east of Pueblo. ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Reports of the census bureau on the agricultural census for 1920, recently completed, afford statistical evidence of the wonderfully rapid development of agriculture in Colorado in the past thirty years and emphasize the increase in agricultural production for the state in the past ten years. Compilations from this report and from previous reports, now being compiled by the State Immigration Department for publication in the Colorado Year Book, show that the value of farm property in the state at the beginning of 1920 was about nine times as great as in 1890 and 119.1 per cent greater than in 1910. The value of all farm property in the state in 1920 was $1,076,794,749, compared with $401,471,800 in 1910 and $117,439,558 in 1890. The actual increase for the past decade was greater than for any preceding decade, and the percentage of increase was greater than for any decade in the period except that from 1900 to 1910. Cyril E. Sterling, an electrician at the Akron Light and Power Company, was killed ten miles south of Akron when his auto turned over, pinning him beneath it. He was found by Charles McLaggert, a passing farmer, who notified a physician, but Sterling was dead before aid arrived. Sterling, who worked from midnight to noon, started late at night for Huge, Colo., to bring home his wife and baby who had been living at that place. The road was smooth but it is believed that on account of the darkness he missed the culvert, thereby upsetting the car. Accused of forging the name of H. A. Johnson, vice president of the Buckingham State bank, to checks totalling $35,000, Rudolph A. Nordell, cashier of that institution, which closed its doors December 29, 1920, has been arrested at Greeley and lodged in the county jail there. The alleged forgeries are said to have been started by Nordell June 3, 1918, when a check for $4,300 is said to have gone through. District Attorney Louis B. Reed declared that more than thirty of the alleged forgeries are in the hands of authorities. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Denio of Longmont have left for France, where they will hunt for the grave of Lieut. Eddie Evans, who was killed in action in France, and whose burial place is unknown. Mr. Evans was a prominent University of Colorado athlete. The university chapter of the American Legion bears his name. Previous efforts to locate the burial place of Lieutenant Evans were unsuccessful. Mrs. Denio is a sister of Lieutenant Evans. The board of county commissioners of Jefferson county have decided that if an inmate of the county poor farm is physically able to do his share of the work at this institution he will have to do so or else his diet will be limited to bread, and water. The action was taken as the result of complaints which had come to the commissioners concerning the refusal of inmates to do any part of the work. Miss Maude Sheridan, leader of boys' and birds' clubs conducted by the State Agricultural College, is one of three club leaders in the United States to be called to Washington, D. C., where she will assist in work concerned with reports from clubs all over the country. Miss Sheridan will be in the capital during the month of June. Scott Jaynes, a brakeman of the Great Western railroad, who was badly injured by being knocked from the top of a car by the eaves of a warehouse at Loveland, and who it was thought was fatally hurt, will recover, according to statements of his physicians. The Woodland Park Wild West Association has voted to hold the second annual rodeo for the Ute Pass district August 3rd, 4th and 5th. The first event of this kind, held last year, drew hundreds of tourists from the Pike's Peak region. It was definitely determined by the city council of Colorado Springs that the Stratton estate is to get the contract for paving the four main thoroughfares in Colorado Springs at a maximum of $805,000, exclusive of the street car company's right of way. Work will start immediately after May 21. All four streets are to be paved with asphaltic concrete on a concrete basis. The Woman's General Missionary Society of the United Presbyterian church will hold its thirty-eighth national convention in Fort Morgan, June 3rd to 7th. Between 250 and 300 delegates from all over the United States will gather, besides a score or more of missionaries from Egypt, India and the Sudan, who will tell of their work in the Far and Near East. Russell and Reason Stout, boys who assisted Theodore Knight in the rescue of the aged insane man known as "William The Prophet," during the great storm here in April, were presented with watches by the Colorado Springs Rotary Club. The Stout boys live on the Cheyenne Valley ranch, where William was taken after being found in the marooned automobile. A contract was made with the Dixon Transportation Company for hauling the mail and parcel post from Wamstutter, Wyo., on the Union Pacific, to Craig, Colo. When the crew began taking the stuff away from Wamstutter, three carloads of parcel post for the Bear river section had accumulated, and for several days trucks were used to relieve this congestion. A total of 266 railroad employees have been placed back on the job in the local railway service at Salida. The number includes nearly every one of the various crafts. PROMOTE TRADE IN NEAR EAST PROMOTE TRADE IN NEAR EAST Aims of the American Chamber of Commerce for the Levant Are Set Forth. TO OPEN UP IMMENSE FIELD Cenatantinople Destined to Become the "Chicago of Europe," Says New President of Organization—Oppor- tunity for American Capital. New York.—Constantinople is destined to become the "Chicago of Europe," according to an interview authorized by Mr. Lucien Irving Thomas, a director of the Standard Oil company of New York, which company has extensive interests throughout Asia and the Balkan states. Mr. Thomas lately returned from a visit to Europe. "I learned, while in London, that I had been elected president of the American chamber of commerce for the Levant," said Mr. Thomas. "I refer to the newly-organized American section of the chamber, now maintaining headquarters in New York. It will co-operate with the long-established chamber of the same name which has its seat in Constantinople. "The organization of this chamber is a timely movement to promote reciprocal trade relations between America and that great area—extending from Egypt to Russia, and from Persia to Italy—of which Constantinople is the center." Gateway to Vast Empires. Gateway to Vast Empires. "Very few people appreciate that Europe and Asia meet at the feet of Constantinople," continued Mr. Thomas. "The chain of waters, the Dardanelles, the Sea of Marmora and the Bosphorus, made available for free commerce, open the gateway to vast empires of populous and fertile territories beyond. When we realize that Russia, a country considerably more than twice as large as the United States, has few seaports that are not ice-bound for the greater part of the year, except those situated on the Black sea, we may imagine what enormous traffic will flow through Constantinople when Russia, with a hundred million of her people nearby, gets into her commercial stride." "Then consider Roumania, now with twice her former area—a country of great natural resources, with a present population of 15,000,000. Bulgaria too, noted for a sturdy and industrious population, has her commercial outlet on the Black sea. And even on the farther side of the Black sea is a group of states which eventually must occupy an important place in over-seas trade. "Jugo-Slavia, now vast in area by comparison with Old Serbia, with substantial natural resources and a population of over 14,000,000 has, of course, one trade outlet via the Adriatic, and another via the Danube to the Black sea. Without any doubt the Danube is soon to play a much more important part in the trade of the Balkan states than it has ever done in the past. Has Natural Wealth. "Both Jugo-Slavia and Greater Greece will hold a more important position than now in the Levantine trade of the future. Egypt is growing into a land of commercial significance. While certain territories have been detached from Turkey since the war, there remains much fertile and valuable land. Turkey is rich in minerals of all kinds. "The war and its aftermath upset exchange throughout the Near East, and this has made commercial transactions difficult for the present. But the natural wealth is there; and a population for the most part industrious. Trade must surely grow." "A high official of an international bank, one who is recognized as having unusually broad and accurate knowledge of Ottoman financial matters, stated to me at Constantinople that in Turkey fully 65,000,000 in gold is boarded by the people in 'stocking-leg banks,' and not deposited at all with the public bankers. In this connection it should be remembered that the oriental mind is accustomed to think, financially, in terms of 'hard money,' and that prior to the European war only gold and silver were in circulation, to any extent, in Turkey. There is evidence that great private wealth exists there today, in gold, silver and jewels, not to mention other valuables, and this wealth will come into the current market as trade returns to normal. "The Levant offers a splendid opportunity for the investment of American capital, in a wide range of enterprises. One of the great openings of the present is for the construction of dwellings, warehouses, harbor improvements, and so forth. Constantlople alone has lost 25,000 to 30,000 houses by fire since the war began, and affords a magnificent opportunity for housebuilding activity. I know for a fact that the Turkish authorities would welcome anyone coming there for the purpose and that they would even be glad to offer concessions. The prevailing spirit is progressive. Modern industrial equipment, too, is now sought where formerly it was shunned. I recall that a long time ago, prior to the coming into power of the Young Turk party, a business cablegram was intercepted by the Turkish authorities because it contained an offer to import some electric dynamos capable of '1,500 revolu- tions per minute.' The wily adviser of Abdul Hamid is said to have thrown up his hands at the suggestion and remarked with some heat that Turkey 'had enough revolutions on her hands at the moment without encouraging these new-fangled trouble-raisers.' Opportunities Are Great. "Constantinople now has an inadequate system to provide substantial harbor craft for use in the waters around Constantinople. People living on the other side of the Bosphorus lack sufficient facilities for commuting to Constantinople. "The development of roadways on the European side of the Bosphorus is another matter for business enterprise. If the Bosphorus is not the most beautiful body of water in the world, I should like to know where it is to be found. A proper driveway along the shores of the Bosphorus would rather tax the memory of a world-traveler to recall anything more charming. "Opportunities for housebuilding and other forms of construction are open in the other cities of the Levant as well as in Constantinople. There is widespread need for railroad construction and rehabilitation; while at the seaports modern docks and wharves and up-to-date freight nandling equipment must be provided. "The Levant should become a growing market for American machinery and manufactures of all kinds. Importations from the Levant must be stimulated, too, in order to improve the exchange and credit situation so that the Near East can buy more from America. Tobacco, licorice, valonia, attar of roses, ralsins, currants, dates, figs, gontskins, hides, furs, olive oil, long-staple cotton, rugs, carpets, and oriental objets d'art are among the imports coming into the United States from the Levant. It will be the aim of the American chamber of commerce for the Levant to help establish trade connections between responsible merchants on either side of the ocean, and to furnish all possible information and assistance to those engaging in trade in this field." Those in Movement. Officers of the American chamber of commerce for the Levant include, in addition to Mr. Thomas, president, the following: Chairman of the board, Mr. J. M. Dixon of the Tobacco Products corporation; vice president, Captain J. F. Lucey of the Lucey Manufacturing company; treasurer, Donald Frothingham of the American Express company; secretary and managing director, Dr. E. E. Pratt. Temporary offices have been established at 200 West Fifty-sixth street, New York city, but it is expected that after May 15 the chamber will be located in the down-town district of New York. Firms represented on the directorate of the chamber, or as life members, include: American International corporations. E. I. DuPont de Nemours Co., U. S. Rubber Co., Guaranty Trust company of New York, General Motors company, Amory, Browne & Company, Great Lakes Trust company, Commercial Union of America, Lockwood, Greene & Company, Hammond Typewriter company, A. B. Farquhar company, Robert H. Ingersoll & Bro., Robert College, James A. Farrell, U. S. Steel corporation, Phelps-Dodge company, Brown Shoe company, International Western Electric company, H. J. Heinz company. The membership covers a growing list of merchants, shipowners, bankers, manufacturers and other business men of the United States. GAINED AND LOST FORTUNES English Dandies Played for High Stakes in the Latter Part of Eighteenth Century. Almack's was one of the famous old gambling clubs of London. It was at its height in the latter part of the Eighteenth century, and the play there was enormous. It was not uncommon for the losses in a single night to amount to upwards of $100,000. The young men, dandies all, who intended to play set about the matter with a great deal of ceremony. They wore straw hats with wide brims, flower and ribbon trimmed; the brims intended to keep the light from their eyes, and that the spectators might not see their emotions they often wore masks. They also often took off their ruffles and silk or satin coats and wore in their place a rough great-coat or else wound leather bands about their arms to protect the delicate lace and hues of their coats from the soil of the table. At each player's side was a small table that held their tea, wine cakes and rolls of rouleau or chips. Most of the players wore long curls, eyeglasses mounted on long sticks, were perfumed, powdered and painted like court ladies, and some of them even affected a mincing ladylike walk. But those who made the error of thinking them ladylike in their fighting ability made a mistake that often cost a life, for the gay young sparks would draw swords at the drop of a hat and meet death with a laugh. Confusing Incident. "How was your after-dinner speech received, dear?" received, dear: "Not so well. While I was talking one of the guests actually snored."

DENVER CITIZENS REFUSE TO FOLLOW POLITICAL REFORMERS. THE PEOPLE OF DENVER by their votes last Tuesday did not intend to be the victims of present-day reformers nor to allow their municipal affairs to be handled by inexperienced persons. THE COLORADO STATESMAN in its advice to voters made it clear that men who have been tried and have faithfully performed their duty, serving our city with the chief purpose of presenting us to other municipalities as being capable of conducting our affairs in a manner acceptable to all, should continue in office; and therefore, the results of the election must be taken as an expression of the choice of the people, which should be taken in good spirit and cause us to rally to the support of our city representatives, so that harmony will prevail and then business for the improvement of our city and the betterment of conditions will appear. With all charter amendments defeated and the daylight saving voted down, the responsibility on the councilman increases, as it is clear that the people have turned their thoughts to men who can offer something practical in guiding the city government and laying aside the old theories and impractical measures which result in heavy burden being placed on the taxpayer. George D. Begole elected city auditor, with all the former councilmen returned except W. J. H. Doran of the Fifth District, who was defeated by James A. Burnett, the work of our municipal government will continue, we hope, with satisfaction to the electors, and as we have done in the past, the columns of THE COLORADO STATESMAN are always open to the giving of such information as to keep the public thoroughly conversant with the proceedings of meetings from time to time, and also to publish the actions of councilmen towards our municipality. We therefore extend our congratulations to the new council and wish a successful term for those elected and the administration.

But our business enterprises,identially reserved, if they will, are not talking of emigration. We and sagacious information come from native sources, combine of life, gigantic in its possibilities. In our present poverty this is and therefore undoubtedly true. grace desire and strenuous energy of the auspicious providence not close, leaving the Negro, as development. ALMOST as a total population of Colorado the Negro stands off and feels that he is not in touch with the great strenuous life which is the heart of the present century's human existence. The world's problems are not ours. There are no problems for us except those touching the right and the opportunity to live. If we can be employed in some way and dragged along in the wake of the world's hurrying events, we will be half way content, at least. Such seems the position of the Negro race in Colorado, but as a matter of truth, is there not a great, ardent life opening before this same Negro? Is there not a great business development awaiting an enlightened direction? Are there not great social, financial and political problems of racial unity world-wide in their application, appealing for recognition before the awakening Negro of today? Wealth-getting is the first great motive of the Caucasian. Let it be so with the Negro. The money-getting spirit carries enlightenment and civilization with it. Business is the watchword of today. Even with the field filled up and handicapped as it is here, 12,000,000 of people of our race are sufficient within themselves to create a volume of new business of their own which would be more than respectable. But our business enterprises can easily take a peculiar advantage, providentially reserved, if they will, by seeking development on African soil. We are not talking of emigration. We are talking of business The wonderful and sagacious information coming occasionally to the Negroes of this country from native sources, combines to present to us a special business phase of life, gigantic in its possibilities and reserved for and applicable to us alone. In our present poverty this must sound like dreamtalk. But it is natural and therefore undoubtedly true. Men of faith, courage, patience, men of loyal race desire and strenuous energy are awakening among Negroes to a realization of the auspicious providence and heaven promises that this country will not close, leaving the Negro, as now, an uncounted-for factor in the world's development. THE GREATEST OF THESE. any great sermons preached on use days, although social condition. There are sermons on faith of their unfaltering belief in on hope which lift the buo THERE are not many great sermons preached on the subject of charity in our pulpits these days, although social conditions seem to point out the need for them. There are sermons on faith which stir the pews to emphatic declarations of their unfaltering belief in every requisite of the creed. There are sermons on hope which lift the buoyant heart to the highest pinnacle of the imagination and stir the downcast soul to its tenderest depth. There are sermons on charity, too, but they are more logical, or at the best, sympathetic, and do not appeal to the passions of hearers like those upon the two former subjects. Faith and hope each denote an inward possession of the character of a personal asset, which gives the believer the sense of the possession of a great benefit, for which nothing else in life could be satisfactorily substituted, but charity denotes the giving away of one's possessions and the distributing and dividing up of one's personal benefits among those who do not possess them, and especially the dividing up and away of our means, our goods and our labor. Faith, hope and charity are the three graces of Christian conduct, and yet, in the eye of the Divine One, "the greatest of these is charity." But charity is not the mere living up to the letter of the law; it is the realization that doing good for others—for the grace for the world—is the highest and truest aim of human life. The effort to bring others who are less fortunate than we are up to or toward the standard of our own enjoyment of life's benefits; the realization of its achievement, and above all, the carrying out of the aim with true consistency, become a source of greater satisfaction and happiness to men than any mere sense of personal possession can ever be. Hence, we were not surprised when recently we heard a colored minister of unusual breadth of thought declare that our churches do not understand or practice the true Christian precepts; that the churches should establish and foster charitable and semi-industrial institutions for the young, the old, the unfortunate and the infirm, was his plea. That practical Christianity, imbued with the idea of helpfulness to others, through the organized and consistent sharing of our own possessions and means, rather than the following of wasteful and selfish fashions of worship and the hugging to our own bosoms of the selfish knowledge of our possessions, would be better for us, for our race and better for the church. Our charitable institutions, established and maintained by our own efforts, mark the true degree of our progress as a people. CHEYENNE, WYO. NEWS CHEYENNE, WYO.

James Foster of Los Angeles were the center of interest and we were glad to meet Rev. Smith on his return from an extended visit to his old home in Kansas. Rev. Smith is on a mission to the Northwest and will possibly go to California. He stopped over to meet with the League and friends and departed on Friday, westward bound. Rev. Whitten's address, "The Brotherhood of Man," was heartily received. A paper prepared and read by Miss Hattie Brown follows; Our Race. By Miss Hattie Brown. By Miss Hattie Brown. We, as Negroes, have many grave problems to solve, many threatening evils to fight, and many deeds to do if, as we hope and believe, we have the wisdom, the strength, the courage and the virtue to do them. But we must face facts as they are. We must neither surrender ourselves to a foolish optimism or succumb to a timid pessimism. Our race is that one among all the races of the earth which holds in its hands the fate of the coming years. We enjoy exceptional advantages, and are menaced by exceptional dangers; and all signs indicate that we will either fail greatly or succeed greatly. I firmly believe that we shall succeed; but we must not foolishly blink at the dangers before us, because that is the way to fail. On the contrary, we must soberly set to work to find out all we can about the existing evil, must acknowledge it to be such, and then attack it with unyielding resolution. There are many such evils, and each must be fought after in a separate fashion, yet there is one quality which we must bring to the solution of all our problems: that is an intense and fervid Negro race. We shall never be successful over the dangers that confront us; we shall never achieve true greatness nor reach the lofty ideal which our forefathers have set before us, unless we are Negroes in heart and soul, in spirit and purpose, keenly alive to the responsibility implied in the very name of Negro, and proud beyond measure of the glorious privilege of bearing it. It remains true in spite of our faults and shortcomings, no other race offers such glorious possibilities to the men who are able to take care of them as does ours; it remains true that no one of our people can do any work so really worth doing unless he does it primarily as a Negro. Our men of energy and ingenuity have created our marvelous prosperity—all these have been men who have drawn wisdom from experience, but have nevertheless thought and worked and conquered and lived and died purely as Negroes, and on the whole we have done better work than any other race during the short period of our national life. At a special service at the Second Baptist Church on Sunday afternoon, May 15th, Rev. J. M. Endicott of Allen Chapel delivered a sermon to the Civic League and citizens of Cheyenne; accepted for his discourse Acts vii:22, "And Moses was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and deeds." His theme was "Race Leaders." He pictured a strong, honest and determined leader, forgetful of self but strong for his race, one who is clean in mind and body, knowing well the arts and wiles of the enemy. The race, he said, should become skilled in the arts of the dominative race, and learn how to conduct themselves under any circumstances. Wisdom, including determination, culture and all which makes a strong, ruling race cannot be achieved in fifty or a hundred years, but will take four hundred or more years to attain the skill of the dominative power. The reverend gentleman's advice is to become learned in all the wisdom of the surrounding power so as to be prepared to act properly at the proper time. It was a logical and instructive sermon and is the topic of conversation. Rev. Endicott has pastored Allen Chapel during the past three years and is held in esteem and estimation by every householder. He is dearly loved by the children, of whom he is also fond. This community will be pleased if it is God's will to have Rev. Endicott's service another year, and another. The Colorado Statesman believes it consistent to retain a strong pastor in a useful place. Mr. William Valentine has returned to Cheyenne after an absence of two years. Mr. Sam Brown stopped over en route to Laramie. The following children are in the fifth six-week period honor roll in our city schools: Evelyn Gaskin, Arline Knight, Le Roy Smith and Dorothy Forbush.

Jefferson have returned to their summer home after an extended visit in Kansas, The Jeffersons are gainers and losers by the trip. Mr. Jefferson gained ten pounds in weight; Mrs. Jefferson lost twenty pounds; both are mutually happy and agreeable after the trip. Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Hopkins entertained at dinner. The honored guests were Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Cannon. Mr. James Galbreath is visiting his mother, Mrs. Otis West. Miss Etwood Troutman was able to leave the hospital and is now at home under the care of her mother, Mrs. Mattie Crowley. Miss Etwood will soon be able to leave her bed. G. A. Perry of Moberly, Mo., passed through en route to Denver. Mrs. Virgil Gaskin Bowen passed away Sunday evening at 8:40 o'clock at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Gaskin, after a long illness. She was the second daughter of the Gaskins to be taken within a month, Alice having succumbed to injuries sustained when she fell from an automobile. Mrs. Bowen, who was the eldest daughter, was born in Cheyenne in 1897 and was educated in the city schools, being graduated from the high school with the class of 1915. She was a talented musician and for two years was organist at the A. M. E. Church. She was married June 3, 1919, to J. D. Bowen of Lincoln, Neb., and had made her home there. She is survived by her husband, a six-months-old baby, her parents, one brother and four sisters. Her death brought sorrow to many friends. Funeral services were held at the A. M. E. Church on Wednesday, May 18th, at 1:30 p. m. Rev. J. M. Endicott officiated, assisted by Presiding Elder Pope, who paid a tribute to the life of Mrs. Bowen from childhood to the end. A host of friends and relatives lament the departure. Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Taylor of Taylorsville were the generous entertainers of a large number of select friends on Monday eve, May 16th. The guest of honor was Mrs. E. M. Keith of Denver, Colo. The Taylors are noted for their generous hospitality. Mr. and Mrs. William (Dollar Bill) Smith have returned from San Diego, California.

Moses and William Stemmons were the dinner guests of Clarence J. Toliver. Mr. John Foster, hustling business man, will vacate the store at 816 West 19th street on June 1st, to enter new fields for business in Colorado. The Fosters have made many friends since coming to our city. Truth About Porcupine. The quills of the porcupine are loosely inserted in the skin, and may, on being violently shaken, become detached—a circumstance which may have given rise to the purely fabulous statements that the animal possessed the power of actually ejecting its quills like arrows or darts at an enemy. "Near" and "Off" Horse. Because in the days when the driver walked beside the horses his position was always at the left, with his right next to the team. Therefore, in driving a pair, the horse on the left was nearer than the one on the right. The "near" horse is always the one on the left.—Dearborn Independent. Tle Pyramids. The "Pyramid Field" lies in the eastern desert near Cairo, Egypt. There are altogether about seventy pyramids, nineteen of which have been identified. The best known are the three pyramids of Giza (Gizeh), that of Unas, the brick pyramid of Dahshur, and that of Sneferu at Medium: Fair Play. Heaven helps those who help themselves provided they do not help themselves at others' expense. Present conditions are largely the result of men helping themselves at the expense of other men. Whether in business or employment, play fair.

Gloried In His Toughness. Dick came into the kitchen one morning, and it was evident from his general appearance he had been with a boy equally aggressive.

NEGRO CHORUS SCORES TRI UMPH AT AUDITORIUM. MUSIC WEEK in Denver, an event that will long live in the history of the city, brought together the peoples of every race and nation at the city auditorium last Monday night. The occasion might rightly be termed a grand melting pot of beauty, a revel of music and color. It was a vast audience that the many representatives of various races looked out upon, when the curtain was drawn back for the first number. In large and small groups they appeared upon the stage as the giant organ pealed forth a melody peculiar to the life and temperament of each nation. There was the impulsive, eager Italian group in picturesque scenic garb, the proud and jovial French, the self-confident and haughty Scotch, the earnest but very musical Welch, the affable and happy Swedish chorus, the Hawaiian, with his weird, entrancing ukulele and songs, the Japanese in Oriental beauty and strangeness of dress, all played their parts well, left lasting impressions upon the thousands present. But when our group came upon the stage, thirty-five voices strong, under the able leadership of Madame Jessie Zachery and to the gentle strains of Old Black Joe, they were given an ovation never to be forgotten. They rendered with beauteous and telling effect two numbers, viz.: "Steal Away," and "I Couldn't Hear No-body Pray," and each number was given prolonged aplause. Never were thirty-five voices heard to better advantage in Denver. It was a triumph that brought fulsome praise from everyone present. Governor Shoup personally commended Mrs. Zachery and the chorus for their splendid work. Mrs. Gertie N. Ross presided at the piano and was ably assisted by Professor George Morrison and his violin. Rev. W. H. Thomas was the moving spirit that brought this chorus together, and it was an effort for which all Denver Negroes should feel proud. Y. M. C. A. AND Y. W. C. A. TO MAKE THEIR ANNUAL TRACK AND FIELD MEET GREAT. EST ON RECORD. Years ago when annual plenics were held each year with the same old programs, they soon grew irksome on us. But, as you know, the annual field and track meet, given under the auspices of the Y. M, and Y. W., is always a gloom killer on Decoration day. It is needless to state that the seventh annual field day and track meet, held at Rocky Mountain Lake park will surpass anything and everything ever attempted by any other organization. Just to give you a peek in on some of the new features this year, we can't help but mention the bike races, a drawing card in itself. Five events will make up this part of the program, in which the mile sprint race and the mile obstacle race will be the features. A gold watch set and nine other worth while prizes, which were donated by the Cycle Trades Association of America, thru the efforts of Mr. Harry Seamon, our local bicycle promoter, will make up the prizes for this feature attraction. Then, we must call your attention to the special invitational one mile relay race, in which teams, one from the postoffice, the pick of the high schools, the White Elephants, and a team composed of our leading college athletes, will fight it out for the honors of the day. In next week's article, we will let you in on some of the stars of these different teams. Don't miss it! Then, when one thinks of the fact that they are offering sixteen other events for the boys, girls, men and women, that are bound to keep us on our toes at all times, we scratch our heads and say, how do they do it? This affair is a Joyland Special for all, come out and bring the whole family. I suppose you now want to know about the eats? Just glance on this menu, that will be on sale, and a plenty of it, too. Sandwiches of all kinds, coffee, pop, crispelettes, ice cream, cigars, chewing gum and, well, I guess, "nuf sed." The curtain will rise promptly at 10 a. m. on this greatest of all out-of-door classics, and therefore you are requested to be on hand early, so you won't miss a single treat. Prizes for this meet are on exhibit in the Atlas Drug company's windows and the Colored American Realty company. Burdan Concert company, direct from New York. Nine in company. A musical treat, at People's Tabernacle, 20th and Lawrence street, Tuesday evening, May 31, for the benefit of Shorter building fund. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION, DENVER DIVISION NO. 118. Our membership is increasing and the youth of our community begin to be charged with the electrifying influence and spirit of this great movement of the age. Fathers, mothers, grandparents are realizing that parental control and training in the home are essentially necessary to having a sound mind in a sound body, and therefore in our meetings emphasis is laid on preparing both young and old for life's battle, theshouldering of responsibility; the uniting of our forces to achieve and accomplish and above all, the redemption of Africa. With the addition of the Phyllis Wheatley to the Black Star Line fleet, the organization can be proud of its investment in this company, having a ship large enough to accommodate nearly 2,000 passengers and all the equipment for modern traveling. A Dollar Drive is on to help the furnishing of these necessary equipments and each member is specially requested to donate a dollar towards this fund. Members of Denver Division are responding cheerfully and in exhibiting pictures of the ship to the general body of our people, a spirit of pride and joy seems to illuminate their very countenances over this addition. A twin-screw ship, capable of carrying 4,500 tons cargo and a very large number of passengers, with ever convenience for traveling, is surely something to be proud of. Tomorrow afternoon, at the Mason's new hall, a large attendance will be present to get full information about this ship and the drive. NIGHT AND DAY CAFE SUNDAY DINNER.

At a meeting called for the parents and their sons last Saturday evening at Mr. Olinger's new building, 16th street and Boulder, a new movement that offers untold advantages for the mere youths of our race was very clearly and strongly defined by Mr. Olinger. Mr. Olinger left very clearly in the minds of all those present that the parents must back up this movement and get behind their boys at all times, not with their pocketbooks, but with their moral support and influence. The finance of the movement will be taken care of by Mr. Olinger himself. The aim of this organization is to develop leadership; to teach the boy to think quickly and act promptly. He is urged to concentrate and to execute orders or movements accurately. Obedience, promptness, courtesy and neatness are insisted upon. The boy acquires courage, manliness, poise, character and forcefulness of action. The instruction is based upon the military drill, tactics and ceremonies of the United States army. Summing up the program of this great movement, we find that it offers to our boys military training, development of leaders, physical training, outdoor activities, educational activities, religious training and additional activities with a full program to interest the boys of this age. One of the biggest and most appealing features of this movement to the boy and his parents should be the band. Mr. Olinger stated in his remarks that he would equip the boys with all the instruments needed in the band, the boys to pay 25 cents or 50 cents a week for their lessons, which will be given by a competent leader, qualified for this work. Thru the efforts of Mr. Townsend, a bandmaster of our own race and city has been secured in the person of Mr. Davis, a director of wide experience. If you are really interested in what your boy becomes, it is your duty to know what kind of things are touching his life. Are you trusting to luck? Do you do this in your business. Do you deposit your money in any old bank? Would you accept a position and trust to luck to get your salary? Your boy is as much a business proposition as your business or your job. Your boy may prove an asset or he may become a liability. Just how much are you really interested? If you are interested in this splendid project, be present with your boy or boys at our next meeting with Mr. Olinger, at 16th street and Boulder, May 28 at 8 p. m. sharp. We need a hundred boys and their parents to put this over the top. Are you with us, is our appeal to you. All boys from 8 to 12 are eligible. Where will your boy be when the roll is called? Sunday, May 29, 3 p. m., will be the celebration of Memorial and Thanksgiving services of Mountain Lodge of Elks, No. 39, at Campbell Church, Twenty-third and Lawrence streets. The program this year promises to be the best ever offered by the members of "Elkdom," as they are sparing no pains in keeping ever green the memory of their departed. NOTICE. The regular meetings of the Universal Improvement Association and African Communities League will be held at the Mason's new hall, 2800 Welton street, beginning Tuesday, May 3, at 8 o'clock. All persons are requested to note the change of meeting place. EDWARD C. DAVIS, Secretary. Pearls and Rubies "Pearl" is thought by some writers to come from the Latin "pirula," meaning "a little pear," because so many fine pearls were, pear-shaped. "Ruby" is thought to have been so called from "ruber," the Latin for "red," but it may be that the word "ruber," meaning red, was derived from the name of the ruby.

CONDOLENCE MRS, MARTHA HOPKINS. Denver, Colo., May 15, 1921. Blessed is the man that dieth in the name of the Lord. Our blessed Father huth removed from our midst another mother by the unmastered messenger of death. Yet while He has claimed the mother of our sister, Christ made it possible that death has no string or victory. Her loss is heaven's gain, and we pause to pay our last tribute of respect. The pitcher is broken at the fountain, and one more link is severed. Dear sister, no more will you hear your mother's voice. You loved her most, but God loved her best; be it resolved that the members of Naomi Household of Ruth, G. U. O. of O. F. extend to the bereft our heartfelt sympathy. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh. Blessed be the name of the Lord. MRS. BIRDIE PHYNIX. MISS REBECCA PARKER. MISS NELLIE PARKER. Hall's Magic Hair Refiner, for men only. No kinky edges.

Phone M. 871 PLUMBING NEEDS DAILY CLEANING Ounce of Prevention Is Worth More Than Pound of Cure With Plumbers' Bills. HOW TO CARE FOR FIXTURES Waste Pipes Should Be Flushed Thoroughly to Carry Off Hardened Grease and Accumulation of Miscellaneous Dirt. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Many plumbers' bills would be avoided, the health of the family better safeguarded, and the appearance of the plumbing improved if the following suggestions, made by the home economics office of the United States Department of Agriculture, were followed by the housewife: Stoppage in pipes is often due to hardened grease or to an accumulation of hair and fint. The waste pipes should be flushed thoroughly after us ing, so that the waste is carried out of the house pipes and the trap left full of clean water. A trap in a waste pipe is a curved section so arranged that water remains in it and prevents the passage of sewer gas into the house. If the water left in the trap is not clean, decomposition may take place and odors and gases may come from the impurities in the water itself. Precautions should be taken to prevent oil and grease from going down the waste pipe from the kitchen sink, because being lighter than water they tend to remain floating on the surface of the water in the trap. Occasionally more than cold, or even hot, water is necessary to clear out the accumulated grease, lint, miscellaneous dirt, and bits of refuse. Wash. 10 Use Only Fine Scourers on Porcelain Fixtures. ing soda is ordinarily strong enough for bathroom pipes, and may be used in the proportion of one part "liquid" soda (made by boiling one pound of washing soda and one quart of water in an old kettle) to twelve parts hot water, or one pound of dry soda thoroughly dissolved in three gallons of boiling water. The drain pipe from the kitchen sink may sometimes need a stronger cleanser, even if it is thoroughly cleaned and flushed, after each dishwashing, and for this purpose caustic potash is efficacious, but must be used carefully—the hands must be protected and the potash must not be allowed to touch porcelain or porcelain-lined sinks, because it may destroy the glaze. One pound of crystals dissolved in two quarts of water should be poured down the drain. About half an hour later the pipe should be flushed with clear water. Caustic soda, although sometimes recommended, is not desirable, because it is likely to unite with the grease and form a hard soap, that is difficult to remove from the pipes. Fine scourers may be used on all fixtures. For porcelain and enameled-iron fixtures kerosene and whiting are especially good; the kerosene cuts the grease and the whiting supplies the abrasion. Some of the commercial cleaning preparations used for enameled and porcelain fixtures contain scourers so gritty that they scratch the surface, and thus make the work of cleaning gradually harder. Nothing coarser than whiting should be allowed. Should Be Cleaned Daily. Bathroom fixtures should be cleaned daily. Tubs and bowls should be scrubbed with a fine scourer or with water containing a little kerosene, rinsed with clear hot water and wiped dry. The stains made by water containing an excess of iron may be removed from porcelain or porcelain-lined rubs and bowls with oxalic-acid solution, which is a poison and must be entirely washed off. The overflow pipes should be flushed occasionally with hot water, for dirt and grease are likely to collect and decompose there. The water-closet should be kept scruppiously clean. A daily cleaning is necessary with hot soapsuds or soda solution, and a long-haired brush, and flushed again. Then the seat, the cover, the chain, and the handle should be washed and wiped. All cloths and utensils used in cleaning the bathroom should be scaledd and dried preferably in the open air. The crust of lime which is sometimes deposited by hard water can be removed from porcelain and porcelain-lined fixtures with hydrochloric acid. This acid is very poisonous and is also injurious to the skin and to many materials, including the metals used in plumbing. It must, therefore, be handled with extreme care. Gloves should be worn when using it. To clean the bowl of a closet, ball out as much water as possible, pour in about a pint of commercial hydrochloric acid (sometimes called muriatic acid), and let this stand for several hours, or until the crust crumbles when poked with a stick. Then flush with a large quantity of water. The water in the tank is not enough; more must be poured in by hand in order to dilute the acid and carry it away rapidly. In a porcelain-lined sink or bathtub the acid must not be allowed to stand on the soiled earthenware, because it may get through to the metal underneath and eat that away. It must, therefore, be applied drop by drop to the lime and flushed out with plenty of water as soon as the crust begins to crumble when pressed. SUBSTITUTE FLOURS FOR MAKING BREADS People Tire of Wheat Served Three Times Daily. Corn Meal, Pecan, Hickory or English Walnuts Cut Into Small Pieces and Other Cereals Are Useful to Break Monotony. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Wheat bread served three times a day is apt to grow tiresome if not varied by bread made from other cereals. The following recipes are recommended by the home economics kitchen of the United States Department of Agriculture: Brown Bread. 3 cupfuls corn meal. 1 teaspoonful salt. 1 cupful flour. 2 cupfuls water. 3 teaspoonfuls bak- 1 cupful molasses. ing powder. Mix the dry ingredients and add the molasses and the water. Pour the mixture into a greased coffee can or steaming tin, steam it for two hours, and then bake in a moderate oven for one-half hour. Nut Bread 3 cupfuls flour. 1 cupful English 3 teaspoonful bake. walnut or pecan ing powder. or hickory nut 1 teaspoonful salt. meats, cut into ½ cupful sugar. small pieces. 1 cupful milk. 1 egg. Sift together the flour, the baking powder, the salt, and the sugar, and add the milk, the egg, well beaten, and the nut meats. Place the mixture in a well-buttered pan and let rise for one hour. Bake for three-fourths hour in a moderate oven. **Rolled Oats and Wheat Bread.** 1¼ cupfuls liquid ¼ cake yeast. (milk, water, potato to water or a mix ture of these). 1 tablespoonful o sugar or corn sirup. ½ cupful freshly 2 teaspoonfuls salt mashed potato. 1½ cupfuls ground 3½ cupfuls wheat rolled oats. flour. Make a sponge of all the ingredients except the rolled oats, and let it rise in a warm place until very light. Add the rolled oats, which have been ground fine in the food chopper and measured after grinding. Let the dough rise until it doubles in bulk, then knead and mold it into a loaf, brush with melted fat after it has been placed in a pan, and allow it to double in bulk again. Bake in a hot oven for 1¼ hours. IRONING DRUDGERY REDUCED Use Clean, Smooth Irons and Have Well-Padded Board or Table at Comfortable Height. Have a clean, well-padded board or table set at comfortable height. Use clean, smooth irons. Rubbing them occasionally with wax or paraffin will keep them in good condition. Rusty or dirty irons should be scoured with sand soap or bath brick, washed, wiped dry, heated, waxed and rubbed smooth. Have clothes evenly dampened and smoothly and tightly rolled. Iron fabrics with the lengthwise thread, if possible, and iron as large a space at one time as possible. Most materials look best if ironed thoroughly dry. Iron first the parts that dry out quickly and that will hang off the board when finished. For silks, woolens and colored materials use medium-hot irons. Iron all these materials on the wrong side, except aprons and children's dresses that need a smooth surface to keep clean longer. Silks and woolens may be ironed on the right side if covered with dampened cheesecloth, say household specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Pineapples aid digestion and should be eaten after meals. Try using a long-handled oiled mop for cleaning your car. Never add sugar to waffle batter. Serve with sugar or sirup. * * * * In making a white cake, substitute two egg whites for a yolk. * * * * When washing keep a stiff vegetable orush handy to use on dirty neckbands, wristbands.

HOUSECLEANING METHODS Frequent cleaning saves time and furnishings, as it is better for fabrics and woodwork to be lightly cleaned often. Dust in fabrics tends to wear them out and when dust is allowed to remain it is often ground in or covered with a film of grease; in either case it is hard to remove. ii Ordinary walls covered with paper, or plastered, are best cleaned with a cloth-covered broom or a wall brush. Light overlapping strokes should be used; too much strength will rub the dust in or streak the walls. Renew the broom cloth or bag when it becomes soiled, turning it or using a fresh one. Cotton batting is good to clean places over radiators that soil more quickly. The pastes and powders said to be good to clean walls are best used by an expert, and they often leave a wall with streaks. Washable papers should be wiped with a damp cloth—too much moisture will loosen the paper. These washable papers, if treated to a coat of varnish, may be treated more like a varnished wall. Rough wall surfaces, like burlap, should be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner or by brushing. Painted walls may be washed with soap and water, rinsed with clean water and rubbed dry. Enameled paint is dulled by using soap. A woolen cloth or canton flannel cloth used with hot water and the wall then rubbed with a dry cloth is the safest treatment. Caleimined walls cannot be touched, as they streak with even a broom bag. The only treatment is to have them recalcimined. Tiling may be cleaned with soapsuds, drying and polishing with a dry cloth. Varnished and shellacked surfaces should be thoroughly dusted before using a soft cloth or a bit of furniture polish, which should be well rubbed in. Waxed surfaces are washed with warm water to remove the film of dust, or use a cloth moistened with turpentine or gasoline, being careful of fire. If the waxed surface has been dulled by water, use a weighted brush to polish. Like the horn of the hunter sounding Far and faint from the hill. Setting the red blood pounding.

Even if one lives in a city, there is no reason why you should be depied a dish of fresh greens, for somewhere within riding distance there will be found the common dandelion, sorrel or cowslip, each of which is good for greens. greens, for somewhere within riding distance there will be found the common dandelion, sorrel or cowslip, each of which is good for greens. Sorrel Salad.—Gather the sorrel, if possible, early in the morning, with the dew still on it. Wash well, chop two cupfuls and mix with one-half cupful each of seeded raisins and chopped walnuts; add French dressing and serve garnished with fresh leaves of sorrel. Dandelion Salad.—Gather the dandelions which have been bleached under wood or leaves; wash and chop; sprinkle with a little chopped onion, salt and pepper, and add a dash of vinegar. The dandelions may be served with a mayonnaise or a boiled dressing and garnished with sliced radishes. Boiled Dandelions and Sorrel.—Wash a peck or less of dandelions in water enough to thoroughly cleanse. If picked and put into a deep pail the dirt settles, after they have been soaked and stirre', in an hour or two. Cook until nearly done in boiling water, then add the sorrel and cook until that is tender. Drain, chop, then reheat and season with salt, pepper, butter or bacon fat, and garnish with hard-cooked eggs. Dandelions cooked with a ham bone or with bacon make a most appetizing dish. The dandelion is rich in iron and a splendid blood purifier. Water Cress.—This is another valuable spring tonic, rich in the minerals needed in the blood. Eaten with a sprinkling of salt or in combination with lettuce it makes a most pliant salad. White Sauce With Cheese.—Prepare toast, butter well and keep hot. Prepare a white sauce by melting two tablespoonfuls of butter, add two of flour and when well mixed pour over a cupful of rich milk. Stir and cook until well cooked, adding salt, pepper or paprika, then stir in one-half cupful of grated cheese. Stir until melted, then pour over the toast and serve at once. This makes a nice luncheon or supper dish. Nellie Maxwell THE KITCHEN CABINET (©, 1921, Western Newspaper Union.) The man who wins, is the man who works. Who neither labor nor trouble shirks; Who uses his hands, his head, his eyes; The man who wins, is the man who tries. The breakfast being the first meal of the day is often the most difficult to serve in the hurry of the morning with children and business men to get off on time. Really, the breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it hurry of the morning with children and business men to get off on time. Really, the breakfast is the most important meal of the day as it strikes the note of the day's harmony or discord. A well-planned meal does away with the flurry of not knowing just what to serve. However simple or elaborate the meal, it is the opening of a new day and no pain should be spared to start everybody out right. Delicate, aged persons or semi-invalids and, often, people in apparent good health suffer from a lack of appetite in the morning. For such, a very light meal should be served: hot milk or coffee, a piece of toast with a cup of chocolate or cocoa and pulled bread or a cracker will be sufficient, or even a glass of hot malted milk with zwiebback and marmalade will be quite enough refreshment for those needing a light breakfast. For those who eat very sparingly it is much better to serve them often—five meals a day, if light food, will be much better than three heavier meals. Whatever beverage is served should be served hot, as such drinks are stimulating and are often very beneficial. The light breakfast of cereal, with top milk or cream, following a fruit, then a substantial dish like eggs, fish or bacon with toast, cakes, gems and a little jam or marmalade with a cooky or doughnut, and a cup of hot coffee will be found a rather substantial and sustaining meal. At a hearty breakfast meat and potatoes are served; in the country where the day begins early and the workers are out in the open, a heavier meal is required, and chops, liver, bacon, pork and beans, kidneys, baked and fried potatoes, scrapple or plain fried mush, also two kinds of warm bread, or hot griddle cakes, find a welcome. Gardeners, sportsmen and campers will find this kind of a meal popular.

The following may afford something new: Crumb Griddle Cakes With Dates.—Take one and one-half cupfuls of fine bread crumbs, one and one-half cupfuls of hot milk, soak for 15 minutes. Mix and sift one-half cupful of flour. one teaspoonful of salt, Crumb Griddle Cakes With Dates.—Take one and one-half cupfuls of fine bread crumbs, one and one-half cupfuls of hot milk, soak for 15 minutes. Mix and sift one-half cupful of flour, one teaspoonful of salt, three teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one tablespoonful of sugar; beat two eggs. To the crumbs add the eggs, dry ingredients and three-fourths of a cupful of stoned and chopped dates, and when well mixed, add two tablespoonfuls of melted butter. Bake on a hot griddle and serve with maple syrup to which a tablespoonful of melted butter has been added. Brownie Flapjacks. — Mix one-half cupful of flour with three teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one and one-half cupful of whole wheat flour, one-half cupful each of nuts and raisins, Stir in three-fourths cupfuls of milk, add three tablespoonfuls of molasses and one well-beaten egg. Mix well and bake on a hot griddle. Enchilades. — Cook one pound of pork from the shoulder until tender, in water to cover. Remove the meat from the bones and chop. Take the broth in which the meat was cooked and stir in cornmeal to make a mush. Season with salt and pepper and a little sage, stir in the chopped meat and pour into a mold. Slice and fry as any fried mush. Spanish Pancakes.—Take one cupful of warm cooked rice, two egg yolks beaten light, mix and add one cupful of flour, one teaspoonful of curry powder, one-half teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of chopped chicken livers, one teaspoonful of grated onion, one tablespoonful of melted butter and two stiffly beaten whites of the eggs, Mix and bake on a hot griddle. Calf's liver may be substituted for the chicken and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of curry used instead of one, if curry is not especially well liked. Sassafras buds are undeveloped leaf-buds and picked and dried are sold as gumbo filet. The flavor is not at all like the root or bark, but has a dainty flavor of its own with the mucilaginous quality which gives the indispensable touch, according to the Creole cooks, who have made gumbo famous by their methods of cooking okra.

Conservation and Perpetuation of Inland Waters for Wild-Fowl. Reports received during the last few months by the biological survey agree that the alarming decrease of migratory wild fowl which preceded the treaty and the act of congress for the protection of migratory birds has changed to a marked increase. Thus the first important step toward insuring the perpetuation of our wild fowl and of wild-fowl hunting has been achieved. Another step of almost equally vital importance, if we are to hold what we have gained, remains to be taken. This consists of the conservation and perpetuation of a sufficient number of small inland lakes, Reports received during the last few months by the biological survey agree that the alarming decrease of migratory wild fowl which preceded the treaty and the act of congress for the protection of migratory birds has changed to a marked increase. Thus the first important step toward insuring the perpetuation of our wild fowl and of wild-fowl hunting has been achieved. Another step of almost equally vital importance, if we are to hold what we have gained, remains to be taken. This consists of the conservation and perpetuation of a sufficient number of small inland lakes, as well as inland and coastal swamp and marsh areas, to provide our migratory wild fowl places for feeding and resting and rearing their young. The mistaken idea is prevalent that the drainage of almost any area is a benefit to the community. I believe that a careful survey of water and marsh areas will result in the great majority of cases in definitely determining the superior value to the state of such water areas in their natural conditions as against the value of the lands which would be left after they had been drained. The biological survey is deeply interested in the proper conservation of water areas, since the rapidly increasing drainage of lakes and marshes throughout the country indicates that, unless an effort is made to conserve a considerable number of the best of these for the future, our wild-fowl resorts and feeding places will be practically eliminated from most of the states. Take 175 men of all walks of life; in Kansas a majority of them farmers. Give 75 per cent of them a seventh-grade education and 15 per cent college degrees and let the rest straggle from the third grade to the high school. Round them up in a strange town, under strange influences, all of the bunch strangers to each other. Put them in two rooms, where one-third never does get acquainted with the other two-thirds. Organize them into committees, and in the backs of the heads of about forty of them inject a mean, nasty, selfish yet sneaking ambition to hold a state job and move to town. Then bang! Slap down on them from the outside about 100 questions of statesmanship, questions that most of them never heard of; things involving millions of dollars, and the good fortunes of a million people. Then let the outer circles of the strange place in the strange town be filled with greedy wolves seeking special privileges of various sorts. And on top of all this give them ninety days in which to solve these questions. What infernal nonsense to expect good results. What a damnable scheme that is to guarantee misgovernment. If the devil himself planned it, he couldn't have done better. It was designed for another age, and it worked well in the country that was fifty years ago. But it does not work now. It only plays h—l. All National Parks Should Be Made Safe From Commercialization. When the bill amending the water-power act so as to exempt national parks was under consideration the question arose whether a limitation should be made applying to national parks now in existence or also to future parks that might be created. As the bill passed the senate and it was reported to the house it limited its effects to existing national parks only, so that hereafter if more national parks shall be created, or those already in existence shall be enlarged, we must fight out on every individual bill creating a new national park or enlarging one already in existence the question whether the water-power in the national park shall be used for commercial purposes. It was my thought that we ought to make this provision apply to all parks that exist now as well as those that may be created in the future; but if the house feels that such an amendment would endanger the passage of this bill and thinks it is better to get what we can under this bill than to try to get more. I have no disposition to offer an amendment. I do desire, however, to register my objection to the provision that limits it to existing national parks instead of including all that may hereafter be created. America Always the Most Propaganda-Ridden Country in the World By Former SENATOR A. J. BEVERIDGE of Indiana America has always been the most propaganda-ridden country in the world. Every foreign country, to the exact extent that its interests were affected, and only to that extent, has sought to use the United States for its own advantage. Swarms of foreign propagandists are creeping all over America. They are delivering lectures, preaching sermons, giving interviews, writing articles, cajoling those deemed influential with American public sentiment. They infest American journalism, are invading American universities, have captured a section of that small but potent group called American "society," and, worst of all, our common schools are being made culture beds of non-American ideas. Any political association with any foreign government is as foolish as it is unpatriotic. The moment we interfere, or even are asked to interfere, in foreign political broils or problems, we become a racial madhouse. Infinitely more important than any international solidarity is American solidarity OLD INDIAN RACE "Red Paint Problem" Is Interesting Archeologists. Explorations in the State of Maine Have So Far Been Inconclusive, But Will Go On. Since the recent donation to the state of Maine of a number of boxes of relics, 3,500 pieces, there has been a renewed interest in the explorations going on in Maine in connection with the so-called Red Paint Indians. Several of the earlier explorations were around the town of Orland in Hancock county. Ernest O. Sugden, the town clerk, has long been interested in Indian exploration work, and has himself developed into quite an authority on the subject. Mr. Sugden's curiosity in Indian explorations was first aroused in 1892, when C. C. Willoughby of the Peabody museum, Harvard university, explored the mound at Lake Alamosook in Orland. Mr. Sugden, a watch repalrer by occupation, became a much interested onlooker. Prof. Warren K. Moorehead of the department of archaeology of Phillips-Andover academy also began explorations in Orland. So interested did Mr. Sugden become in Indian exploration work that during the past eight years he has assisted in carrying on explorations in nine different states. Prof. Moorehead says there is in Maine what the scientists call the "Red Palnt Problem," so-called because of the quantities of red ochre found in the graves in the cemeteries of these people. "The problem relates to a people of very great antiquity, which were quite different from Algonkin or other tribes known in early Maine history. The graves are so old that no bones remain. The people seem related to the earliest Esquimaux. Only by the most careful hand-trowel work and minute observation during exploration of cemeteries or sites occupied by these people can we learn concerning their culture and antiquity. "In these graves are found peculiar gouges, hatchet blades, flint spears, plummetts, long pendants, fire-stones and iron pyrites, and occasionally chipped arrowheads, but the latter are not frequently found." A. H. Bridges of Waterville, who has long been interested in archaeology, called the attention of Gov. Milliken not long ago to evidences of the former existence of the Red Palnt Indians in certain burial grounds in Waterville and Winslow. "So far as known, the Red Paint men are the oldest culture of humans in North America," says Mr. Bridges. "They antedated pottery, as none has ever been found in their graves. They were spearmen, not bowmen, as only spearheads have been found in burials. They had no peace pipes, so knew nothing of tobacco as the Indians did. "Stones for striking fire are common in graves, sheets of mica either for looking glasses or ornament are often found, gouges and spears and chisels were most common instruments of stone, well made and some ornamented. "They had a printed language of peculiar character as traces on a chisel have been found. More of the language characters will no doubt be discovered as new cemeteries are excavated. No stone axes have been found. "The most distinct and peculiar trait of these people is the use of red ochre from Mt. Katahdin region in their cemeteries, the stone implements being placed near each body in the ochre. Traces of these people are found along the Penobscot valley, Androscoggin river, and last summer John T. Kellilher of Waterville located a cemetery on the Sebasticook river in Winslow." "After considering the method of burial and the character of implements found in Red Paint graves," says Mr. Kelliber, "we can easily arrive at the conclusion that they were of a different stock from the historic Indian found here by the first Europeans, since it is well known that the custom of laying the dead in a shallow grave and covering the body with a layer of ochre, or of red paint, was not practiced by the Canibas or Penobscot tribe of the Algonquin, who held sway over the Kennebec river regions, nor of any other tribes of Indians in North America." There have been discovered in Maine 18 of the so-called Red Paint cemeteries and there have been 400 graves examined. la Space Endless? Einstein's theory that space may not be of infinite extent seems to have obtained indorsement by many eminent physicists. Nevertheless it would not appear that, if this idea be accepted, the cosmos is to be regarded as alarmingly shrunk. For Einstein's own opinion is that a ray of light traveling 186,000 miles a second would require a billion years to make a complete circuit of its outer limits. "Johnny," said his mother, "you should not eat so much between meals. It will take away your appetite at meal times." "Don't see why it should," replied Johnny. "My eating at meal times never takes away my appetite for eating 'tween meals.'"—Boston Transcript. C. V. FAIRBANKS FIRST CLASS MEALS SERVED HOME COOKING Phone Main 4843 J. GIBSON SMIT Art Dealer J.

J cornflowers, grasses that belong to springtime. A similar hat at the right is of leghorn with tuscan braid about the brim edge. It also has a wreath of flowers about the brim and a crushed collar of ribbon around the crown. ALL in the blue, unclouded weather, when the summer world has forgotten winter, there comes into bloom such millinery as is known to no other season. It appears to be inspired by the singing hearts of artists and reflects only the gracious and lavish summer time. All mediums are at the hands of designers. for this is a season of trimmed millinery. The beautiful all-black hat, at the left of the picture, is a graceful shape in a brilliant straw, veiled in black chiffon. It is finished with a sweep of fine feathers across the back that fall over the brim at the left. The mark of a genius in designing is revealed in this midsummer night's dream in millinery. It is more suited to older wearers than the hats above it. A hat of like character finishes the group, a round-crowned, narrow-brimmed model, almost covered by a full wreath of delicate feathers and suited to matronly wearers. It is very handsome in the fashionable shades of blue. In spite of the loveliness of flower-decked headwear and the charm of white and light colors, there has never been a summer time when the big, all-black hat, in picturesque shapes, has not been honored as an adorable exponent of the season. The hat at the top of the group pictured is an example of dignified and distinguished style. Just below it, at the left, a hat with braid crown and transparent brim, has the flowing lines that youth loves and a wreath of field flowers. clover-blossoms, daisies, buttercups, 1 at the front. Several vestes provided for this dress help to keep it interesting and adapted to all kinds of weather. DRESSSES designed to take the place of suits proclaim their character by the kinds of materials used in them and by their design. Those that must see much service are smartly simple, made of sturdy fabrics in quiet colors, and are very conservative in the matter of decoration—otherwise they would grow tiresome. But good lines and comfort are never tiresome and, given these, the wearer of the one-piece street frock contrives to vary her costume by many little tricks in the use of accessories, collar and cuff pets, vestees and collar sets, fur chokers, hats and other things that lend their aid in the interest of variety. A more dignified frock at the right, suited to older wearers, makes use of braided bands and panels in a quiet elaboration that enriches it. The braiding is in a contrasting color, and the same color in silk faces a girdle and sash of the material. The skirt recognizes the mode in its somewhat uneven length and floating panels. Such a dress will serve many purposes. By means of the right kind of millinery and accessories it may be toned up to semi-dress or take its quiet way without them, for street wear. A utility dress appears at the left of the two one-piece frocks pictured. It has a straight underskirt and long, full tunic which does not extend across the front. The plain bodice and long shawl collar allow for a vestee with polled collar, opening in a small "V" Julia Bottomley MOTOR MACHINE THE BARBER'S CAFE Bolden Barber Shop Baths, Electric Massages FIRST CLASS SERVICE R.
