Chapman and Farsens, Home-Owners and Escape American Civilization Threatened Throughout the Court Demand RESIDENTS near 2112 Gilpin street were terrorized and several narrowly missed death or injury when a bomb, believed by the police to have been thrown to intimidate Walter R. Chapman, which recently moved into this residence district, exploded Thursday at 10:30 p. m. on the front lawn at that address. Walter R. Chapman, a government mail clerk here for fifteen years, and his wife, the two colored newcomers in the neighborhood, were sitting in the front room of their new home at 2112 Gilpin street when the bomb went off, shattering the front windows of the house and side windows of that of Adolph Christendom, fifteen feet away, at 2108 Gilpin street. No one was injured. The bomb, which evidently exploded the moment it struck the ground, tore a hole in the front lawn six feet from the house. Bomb Thrown From Auto. Patrolmen Jack Dea, Carl Wilmot and C. W. Powers, who were sent to the spot by Police Captain George Merritt, expressed the opinion that the bomb was thrown from an automobile, which probably got well down the street before the explosion occurred. So far as the police could learn, however, no witness saw any machine which might have carried a bomb. Chapman said that after he bought his new property recently, through F. R. Ross as agent, from Patrolman Richard Porter, also colored, who was not occupying the house, he was threatened by a white man, who said, "Stay out of this neighborhood. If you move in here, your house is going to be blown up." Since then Chapman had not seen this man again and had not been able to learn his name, he said. Chapman told the police he had reported this alleged intimidation to Manager of Safety Downer; his secretary, Clint Smith, and Chief of Police Williams shortly after this strange man had addressed him. * Residents Alarmed. Residents for blocks around heard the explosion last night, and for an hour or more telephone lines to the police department and newspapers were kept busy by inquirers who wanted to know what had happened. The police were unable to find any pieces of an infernal machine, or home-made bomb, about the damaged Chapman home. They felt confident, however, that the explosion resulted from a premed- itated plan against the property and was caused by either a charge of dynamite or a home-made charge constructed of material which was shattered to atoms with the discharge. INSULTING A' JEW. The free-for-all fight that was pulled off recently at Clarendon Beach between a small army of Jews on the one side and a number of other groups—with the exception of ours—on the other started over the remark made by a Jewish woman to a sunburned guard whom she evidently took to be colored. She is reported to have said that "one of these life guards married a white girl." Back came a hot one about the Jews. The prologue ends and the story begins. Five hundred bathers took part in the melee. Women were beaten, children trampled under foot, playground apparatus broken and four persons jailed. Think of it! A beach fight and not a colored person in sight to fasten the blame on. Wonder if the chronic agitators will petition the city council to set apart separate bathing beaches for the Jews? When we had our beach party some two years ago this course was suggested. Isn't it strange that the things credited to be peculiar to our group are indulged in by our white brothers? We no longer have a monopoly on being lynched; we have lost the title of being the greatest rapists; we have been beaten at the game of stealing, and the knife as a settler of differences is in the hands of Italians. Truly the Caucasian race is dominant. But, getting back to the Clarendon Beach affair, isn't it enough to arouse the fighting blood of any self-respecting white man to be mistaken for colored, especially when that white man can trace his ancestors back a few centuries to the cave man period?—Chicago Defender. MID-SUMMER MEETING OF THE DENVER COLORED CIVIC ASSOCIATION. The regular meeting of the Denver Colored Civic Association was held in Odd Fellows Hall, 2630 Welton street, Wednesday evening, July 6, at 8 o'clock. A large attendance of the members was present, and a most enthusiastic meeting was held and a vast amount of important business transacted. A special election was held to elect a second and third vice-president, and Mr. Charles S. West and Mr. I. C. McKenzie were elected respectively as second and third vice-president. There were some lively topics up for discussion, and those who were not present missed a rare treat and some valuable information. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 9 1921 ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION SENSATIONAL DIVORCE CASE COMPROMISED North Carolina "Triangle" Involving Prominent Individuals of Both Races Settled Out of Court—Alleged That Mrs. Varner Has Been Given Satisfactory Settlement—Damage Suit Against McRary Dropped. G GREENSBORO, N. C., June 30. The entire book dealing with the sensational Varner litigation, save the chapter containing a divorce between H. B. Varner and his wife, Mrs. Florence C. Varner, was settled Thursday afternoon, June 23, to the satisfaction of all concerned, when the attorneys representing the three parties interested, namely, H. B. Varner, Mrs. Varner and Baxter McRary, wealthy colored man, agreed upon the conditions of the compromises, and signed the necessary papers to make the agreements binding. Proceedings Kept Secret. The suit of Varner against McRary for $100,000 is withdrawn. Mrs. Florence C. Varner gets a sum of money, said to be about $20,000. The suit of Fritts vs. Walser is settled. Mrs. Varner is to go to her home in Utah and, it is understood, she will enter suit there for a divorce, which suit, it is said, will not be opposed. The exact provisions of the settlement of the case are not known, the lawyers agreeing among themselves to keep the terms a secret. As to the innocence or guilt of Mrs. Varner, the courts have not yet said, and, rather than go through the ordeal of another trial, and rather than air the nauseate case again before the public, all parties concerned desired to effect a compromise. Never before in the history of the country have the people of both races been so thoroughly aroused concerning litigation as they were during the time and immediately following the trial of the case in federal court in February. The trial lasted for ten days, and in it over 100 witnesses testified. Clandestine meetings, secret auto rides, love notes, telephone conversations and many other features disclosing the intimate private life of Mrs. Varner and McRary were aired and contested. According to evidence presented, McRary was found in the home of Mrs. Varner one night last August. Mr. Varner was out of town at the time. Immediately upon information regarding the alleged intimate relations of his wife and McRary, Varner brought suit against McRary for $100,000 damages for alleged alienation of his wife's affections. In a counter-charge Mrs. Varner sued her husband for $5,000 a year for reasonable subsistence. Dreaming of Skating.

So sing the Christians of the Occident regarding those who live in Oriental lands. But Thursday afternoon hundreds of natives of Japan and China crowded into the Auditorium and occupied seats especially reserved for them to listen to the sermon of Aimee Semple McPherson and to answer her call for them to come to the altar and give themselves to God. "We try to reach every class and kind," she said. "We know no caste nor color in our love for humanity, and follow the command of Jesus to preach the gospel unto ALL men."—Denver Post. RECORDERSHIP OF DEEDS GOES TO "LINK" JOHNSON UPON RECOMMEN-DATION OF PRESIDENT HARDING WILL HOLD SEAT ON NATIONAL COMMITTEE WASHINGTON, D. C., June 27. President Warren G. Harding defied the "lily whites" of the country in recommending the appointment of Henry Lincoln Johnson to serve as Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, this week. Mr. Johnson has been one of the most active and conspicuous figures in national politics for years. He was the center of attraction at the Chicago convention, and holding the position of member of the Republican National Committee from the State of Georgia caused him to be reckoned with on every side. He announced that his selection as Recorder of Deeds will not mean that he will resign his place on the National Committee. "My life is an open book," he said. "The only real enemies I have made were through my stand years ago in connection with the pressing of poonage charges, and the feeling has been largely dissipated by recent disclosures of conditions on the Jasper county murder farm. "It was due to my personal efforts that indictments were returned against James M. Smith of Oglehtorp, Ga., a millionaire farmer, who later was candidate for Governor in the State primary." Johnson was graduated from the University of Michigan in 1892, and soon afterwards was admitted to practice law before the Georgia courts. He has taken active part in Georgia politics among his own race since his return to that State. Henry Lincoln Johnson, nominated by President Harding to be Recorder of Deeds for the District of Columbia, has long been a leader of one wing of the Republican party in Georgia, and has been noted for his plain-spoken language in the party's conventions. Johnson has spent most of his time in Washington since he was Recorder of Deeds under the Taft administration, but has kept his residence in Atlanta, returning to take part in political affairs. He has been the object of attack on many occasions by the "illy white" element of the party, which fought his selection last June as Republican National Committeeman from Georgia. Minister to Liberia and various offices in the national capital have been assigned to the Negro leader in speculation and reports brought here since the election of Harding. GOV. HYDE AGAINST LYNCHING. ST. LOUIS, Mo., July 1.—In an address to the special session of the State Legislature here, Governor Arthur Hyde expressed his favorable attitude toward the establishment of a law against lynching. "If such a law is introduced," said the Governor, "it will probably pass both houses." This is a movement for which the Missouri Negro Industrial Commission and the St. Louis Branch N. A. A. C. P. have been fighting. The recent lynching of Roy Hammond is reported to have stirred the people of the State of Missouri to action. NO 39 FORCES WIFE TO SUBMIT TO ATTACK OF LABORER. CARTHAGE, N. C., July 1.—Declaring that her husband wanted to have a little fun by lynching a man, Mrs. James Maples (white) told policemen that he held her and forced her to submit to an attack by Jake Smith, a farm hand, who made good his escape. Smith is not white. As result of her statement, Jim Maples, the woman's husband, is in the Moore county jail in default of $5,000 bond, following his arrest on a warrant sworn out by Mrs. Maples and her brother. According to rumors, Maples is alleged to have said that Southern Pines, where he lived, needed a "little excitement," and he was going to bring it about. Mrs. Maples alleges that he sacrificed her to do it, but Smith escaped when he got wind of the plot. EFFORTS BEING MADE TO JIM CROW CATHOLICS. BROOKLYN, N. Y., July 1.—Catholics here will have a "jim crow" church because Bishop McDonnell of the Long Island diocese has purchased the property formerly owned and used by the Ormond Place Reformed Church, located at Jefferson avenue and Ormond place. Father Bernard J. Quinn (white), who is in charge of the mission work among the Race, stated that there are at least 1,000 Catholics here, and there is a desire that they stay to themselves. Many of them have decided they will change their religion. UNIVERSAL NEGRO IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION ELECTS DELEGATE TO CONVEN- (By Virgie Cole.) A very interesting meeting took place last Tuesday evening at the Mason's new half, when a large attendance was present to take part in the proceedings. Mr. V: P. Hewetson-Watson was elected delegate to the convention of the U. N. I. A., which takes place August 1-31. A short musical program created a new feature, which was listened to with rapt attention. The membership drive is on and quite a few additions to our numbers are coming in. The president and other officers of the organization are redoubling their efforts to reach the 200 membership mark.

FOREIGN A typhoon recently caused heavy damage in Manila and its environs. The city's power supply was cut off and the city was in darkness. Houses were unroofed and several small vessels in Manila bay were driven ashore. Street car service was paralyzed. Representatives of soviet Russia have been feeling out the ground in trade circles in France, with the view, they indicated, of placing orders for automobiles and other articles of commerce, but reports from commercial quarters are that they have met with little encouragement. More than 500 of the visiting Rotary Club delegates and their wives went to the grave of the unknown soldier in the Plate d'Etoile in Paris and stood by silently while Dr. Crawford Y. McCullough of Fort William, Ontario, president of the international Rotarian organization, laid a wreath on the tomb. The Cabinet of Premier Allen de Salazar of Spain has resigned. There has been dissension in the Cabinet for some time. The situation culminated in Manuel Arguelles, Minister of Finance, tendering his resignation, on the ground that the new tariff law and the commercial treaties were inimical to the interests of labor. An American gunboat is watching the situation at Wu Chow, where soldiers of the Kwan-Tung party, supporting President Sun Yat Sen, have defeated opposing forces and captured all of their positions. Dr. Sun Yat Sen recently was inaugurated as president of southern China, and established a government at Canton. This government was in opposition to the Peking government. Several persons have been arrested and held for examination in connection with the fire which destroyed virtually the entire northwest wing of the government house at Lima, Peru. Among those detained are two painters, said to have been at work in the office of the president's secretary shortly before the fire. It is said the fire broke out simultaneously in three places in the presidential suite. Political union in Eastern Siberia is further off than ever, as a result of the activities there of General Semenoff, the Cossack anti-Bolshevist leader, according to dispatches reaching Toklo from various centers. Following persistent reports that Semenoff had received Japanese help in effecting his escape to the interior from Vladivostok, the story being that he had been concealed in the bottom of an automobile, the Japanese command at Vladivostok has announced the issuance of instructions forbidding Japanese officers to give any assistance to Semenoff. GENERAL Twelve persons were seriously injured recently in the collapse of a three-story building in Denison, Texas. It is understood that more than twenty-five persons were in the structure at the time. It is not believed that any lives were lost. Carl Wanderer, triple murderer, exhausted his last trick in his efforts to dodge the gallows when the Chicago jury that has been hearing his plea of insanity, decided in less than one hour that he was sane and must hang. After the decision had been handed in, Judge David set the date of execution for Friday, July 29. The sole hope now remaining for Wanderer is that Governor Small will intervene. Mrs. Etta B. Heil, the "millionaire maid" of Chicago, was placed on probation for one year after she pleaded guilty to four separate charges of larceny. Mrs. Hell, the wife of a wealthy broker, was arrested and confessed that she had looted a dozen North Shore homes while posing as a "maid." Her loot ran above $100,000, but probation was made to all her victims by her husband. The probation sentence was decreed by Judge Kerston in Criminal Court after attorneys for the woman had appealed for 'clemency. Fire destroyed the plant of the Nebraska Potash Company at Antioch, eighteen miles east of Alliance, Neb. It is owned by a Denver concern and was valued at approximately $500,000. The Catholic church and several other buildings caught fire from the flames which were fanned by a wind Approximately 7,000 coke workers in the independent plants of the Connellsville, Pennsylvania, coke region were affected by a 10 per cent reduction in wages, the second announced this year. The new rate is about 331.3 per cent below the rate paid Jan. 1, but, according to coke men, 45 per cent higher than the prevailing rate in 1912. Only about 7 per cent of the independent ovens are in operation. An alleged unauthorized strike by 200 pressmen in the printing shop of the Cunco-Henneberry Company, publishers, of Chicago, resulted in the filing of the praecipe of a $50,000 suit against the Chicago Printing and Pressmen's Union No. 3 and eight officials and agents of the union. Trouble is said to have started over the printing of the western edition of a weekly magazine, at whose plant there was a pressmen's strike. With the vote of the railway shopmen overwhelmingly opposed to acceptance of a wage reduction from S5 to 77 cents an hour, as ordered by the United States Railway Labor Board, railway circles are apprehensive that the nation may be confronted with a serious railroad crisis within a fortnight. Joseph Lindgren, automobile mechanic, was sentenced to from one year to life imprisonment in Chicago after pleading guilty to a charge of recklessly driving an automobile which killed Mrs. Eugenia Cooly on April 3d. THE WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS A BRIEF RECORD OF PASSING EVENTS IN THIS AND FOR-EIGN COUNTRIES IN LATE DISPATCHES DOINGS AND HAPPENINGS THAT MARK THE PROGRESS OF THE AGE. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) WESTERN The entire of Marysville, Calif., was threatened with destruction by fire recently. Twelve city blocks were destroyed with the flames raging out of control. The loss will be more than $2,000,000. More than 100 residences were burned, many of them among the finest homes in the city. Mrs. Charles F. Wiley, 59, of Los Angeles is reported near death at a hospital in San Francisco from an unusual injury in an accident. A motor bus in which she was riding brushed against the side of a bridge. Her arm, which was resting on the outside of the car, was severed at a point near the shoulder. The arm dropped into the river below. The motor gig of Commander Percy W. Foote of the U. S. S. Salem burned to the water's edge in San Francisco bay recently, severely burning the officer and two of the five men with him. They were returning to the Salem from shore at the time. Commander Foote and the sailors jumped overboard from the gig when it started to burn and they were picked up some time later by a boat from the U. S. S. Tennessee. Admiral E. W. Eberle assumed command of the United States Pacific fleet to the booming of a double admiral's salute on the U. S. S. New Mexico, flagship, in San Francisco bay. Admiral Eberle succeeds Admiral Hugh Rodman, who was detached after a two-year tour of sea duty to command the navy yard at Norfolk, Va. The ceremony of changing command was simple, consisting of lowering the previous commander-in-chief's flag raising Admiral Eberle's ensign and the formal reading of his orders to take command of the armada. WASHINGTON By three votes the Senate rejected a resolution by Senator Lodge, Republican leader, providing for a four weeks' recess from July 9 to Aug. 8. The vote was 24 to 27. Sixteen Republican Senators voted against the recess and five Democrats voted for it. A system of model airways, covering the entire continent, is planned by the army air service for the use of all operators or owners of aircraft. It contemplates various chains of well-organized landing fields, supplemented by frequent emergency fields and identification markers connecting the principal cities. Alien Property Custodian Miller has been ordered by Justice Hitz of the District of Columbia Supreme Court to return to Countess von Bernstorff, wife of the former German ambassador to the Unified States, stocks, bonds and cash amounting to $1,000,000, which was seized under the trading with the enemy act. Establishment in New York of an international banking institution to be known as "The Bank of Nations," with $2,000,000,000 capital, to act as the fiscal agent of the United States and such other governments as might be admitted as stockholders, is proposed in a bill introduced by Senator Hitchcock, Democrat, Nebraska. The cost of running the United States government during the fiscal year which ended June 30 was $5,115,027,689, according to the Treasury Department's statement. The figures are subject to final adjustment. Revenues from all sources, although showing a drop of a billion under the previous year, amounted to $5,624,932,960. Baron Shidehara, the Japanese ambassador, in a format statement in Washington, in discussing the Anglo-Japanese alliance, declared that "by no stretch of the imagination can it honestly be stated that the alliance was ever designed or remotely intended as an instrument of hostility or even defense against the United States." The United States shipping board has announced that the entire fleet of 287 vessels, constructed during the war and aggregating 900,000 tons deadweight, will be sold as speedily as possible. Bids will be opened July 30. The sale of the wooden vessels, which now are anchored and deteriorating in various ports, is the first step in the carrying out of the administration's policy to "get the government out of the shipping business." Acceptance of German bonds as substitutes for the obligations of European nations debtor to the United States is not at present contemplated by the treasury, Secretary Mellon told the Senate finance committee in urging favorable action on the administration bill to enable the refunding of the $11,000,000,000 which Europe owes the United States. Governors of thirteen western states are expected to meet in Salt Lake July 18 to discuss the future progress of activities of the Western States Reclamation Association. CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Martial law has been lifted in Pueblo and the city and county turned over to the civil authorities by Colonel Newlon, the military commander. City authorities have put into effect all the regulations made by the military order providing that no person shall be in the streets after 10:30 p. m. without a good excuse. No passes will be issued, as was the case under martial law. The city has been under martial law since the flood of June 3 and during that time not one house has been robbed or a single holdup reported. Only a few cases of looting occurred but they were not important ones. Fifty Colorado rangers will remain there indefinitely and will be in command of Colonel Newlon. Three hours after a suit for $28,274 had been filed against him in the District Court at Boulder. Col. J. A. Owenby appeared before Judge Neil F. Graham and confessed judgment. The suit was brought by John W. Gaynor, a wealthy farmer of the Ni-wot-Longmont district, who alleged that he had loaned Colonel Owenby $20,650, which was the total of sixteen notes issued in the years 1915, 1916 and 1917. Of this indebtedness $7,600 was made good to the Farmers' National Bank of Longmont by Mr. Gaynor, who signed promissory notes to that amount, jointly with Colonel Owenby. The threatened invasion of El Paso county by a grasshopper army moving northwest from the southeastern corner has been averted, according to J. C. Hale, county agent. The grasshoppers descended on the county recently and it was only through the hardest sort of work that the pest was stopped according to Hale, who declared that farmers in the community worked day and night in their efforts to head off the grasshoppers. Poison bran and arsenic were used in the battle against the insects. It cost the state of Colorado $28,000 to pay the salaries of National Guards men on duty in the Pueblo flood district, according to pay roll figures compiled in the office of Adjt. Gen Patrick Hamrock. "Voucners for the pay of guardsmen to the extent of $27,500 have already been drawn," said Colonel Hamrock in discussing the expense of guarding the flooded city, "and when the pay rolls for the last contingent of troops are completed, the total will run slightly over $28,000." Pueblo county property owners, who suffered financial losses during the flood early this month, will receive a reduction in their tax for 1921, according to an announcement made in Denver by C. P. Link, member of the State Tax Commission. Mr. Link has just completed a detailed survey of the actual damage done in the county. He places the total loss at $11,000,000. A tax levy on this property will be reduced five-twelths of the original assessment, the state official announced. Officials of the Chamber of Commerce of St. Louis have announced they would request a Carnegie hero medal for Robert J. Taylor of that city, negro Pullman porter, who is said to have saved twenty-six lives when Missouri Pacific train No. 14 was overturned in the Pueblo flood in June. The new Colorado Division of Marketing authorized by the last General Assembly, has been established. W. M. Allewelt of Greeley was appointed director of the division by the executive committee of the State Board of Agriculture. He has established headquarters at the Agricultural College. Pete Smith, a well-to-do bachelor-farmer, about 40 years old, was shot by another farmer, George Lammers, also well-to-do, southeast of Sedgwick near the Phillips county line. Smith is thought to be insane. Martin Gabrich, 45 years old, an Austrian, alleged to be the murderer of H. C. Baisch, has been captured at Ophir Loop, twelve miles south of Telluride, by Sam Richards and Jim Palumna, special deputies. Thirty-two cavalry horses to serve as mounts for Troop B of the Colorado National Guard cavalry have arrived in Denver from the government remount station at Fort Robinson, Nebraska, according to an announcement by Capt. R. H. Jancke, the commanding officer of the troop. The horses, which are said to represent the finest type of cavalry mount, are all of the same color, a deep bay, and Troop B will be known henceforth as the "bay horse troop," Captain Jancke said. The dam at Marshall lake will not be rebuilt for the present at least, according to A. J. Shaw, receiver of the Farmers' Reservoir and Irrigation Company, owners of the structure. "Inasmuch as the dam is safe for the present," said Mr. Shaw, "and because we believe it to be to the interests of the farmers, whose lands we irrigate, the water will not be drawn out." Frank W. Howbert, newly appointed internal revenue collector for the Colorado district, has assumed his duties in Denver, supplanting Harry T. McCauley, who occupied the position temporarily, following the resignation of Mark A. Skinner several months ago. Sheriff Francis L. Hampton of Moffat county is authority for the statement that there is no sheep war impending in Moffat county or on the Colorado-Utah line so far as he can ascertain, despite wild reports to the contrary. According to Sheriff Hampton, the "sheep war" reports being circulated resulted from the refusal of homeesteaders and ranchers and cattlemen in a section of country eighteen miles south of Craig refusing to allow a small bunch of sheep to pass over their holdings to the reserve west of them.

Fosgate, 28 years old, chief chemical research engineer of the Great Western Sugar Company at Denver, died suddenly while in his automobile near the company's laboratory at Twenty-first and Blake streets. Because his parents were unable to find a physician and were ignorant of home remedy methods, Clyde Schmeeckle, 2-year-old son of William Schmeeckle, a farmer living three miles east of New Raymer, died of rattlesnake bite. Edward McConnell, 35 years old, prosperous farmer and owner of a 2-100-acre ranch thirty miles southwest of Colorado Springs, Colo., has been arrested by Federal Dry Agents John R. Smith and Fred Mangold on liquor violation charges. He was released on bond. State aid to the counties which have suffered by the invasion of the army of grasshoppers was promised by Governor Shoup at a meeting of the county commissioners from Lincoln, Crowley, Pueblo and El Paso counties, in Colorado Springs. The amount definitely decided upon was $3,500. Colorado Game and Fish Protective Association has launched a campaign for 10,000 members before Aug. 1 and is offering prizes for those who bring in the largest number of members.

Now the Public Is to Have a Lobby Ten Norwegian Fellers Bane in Congress Hays Befriends Ambitious Greek Boy Hays Befriends Ambitious Greek Boy FIRST WAR DEAD ENRIGHT GREESHAM HAY WASHINGTON.—Who was the first soldier of the American army killed in action in the World war? When President Harding participated in the ceremonies over the bodies of more than 5,000 American soldiers at Hoboken he placed a greath on the coffin of Private Joseph W. Guyon, a member of the Thirty-second division, with the statement that he was the first American soldier "who perished on enemy territory" in the World war. The War department furnishes the available historical data on the subject as follows: "The first American soldiers killed in battle (November 3, 1917), were Corp. James B. Gresham (from Evansville, Ind.), Private Thomas F. Enright (from Pittsburgh, Pa.) and Private Merle D. Hay (from Glidden, a.) all of Company F, Sixteenth infantry, First division. A NEW organization that is to help congress serve the interests of the general public has been formed. It is called the People's Legislative Service, and its national council is composed of 70 senators, representatives, judges, editors and others. The organization will attempt to give the general public—also designated as the ordinary citizen and the ultimate consumer—the same advantages before congress that business, labor, farmers and other groups have. These groups are organized and have lobbles to present their arguments forcefully before congressional committees. Almost any information needed by them can be obtained instantly from their headquarters. The new group of men and women that aim to serve the people's interests claim that they are not starting a lobby by. The institution is somewhat like a lobby in that it is a source of information for congress. But unlike a lobby it represents no limited part of the population, but the public as a whole. It is for the benefit of any congressman who wants information on the public's side and it is maintained by subscriptions of members. Senatord K. Wilson H. Norbeck Representatives K. Norbeck G. N.

POSTMASTER GENERAL HAYS has befriended Andrew Louchion, a native of the Island of Crete, and is giving him a chance to be "progressive." For the monthly sum of $80 the Greek, now twenty years old, helps the Hayses keep their apartment in shipshape condition and acts as sprucer-up for the postmaster general at his office. Andrew has become an institution. He speaks five languages fluently and is teaching his new employer to tell French. how to talk Freeman. "See that typewriter? I got it for him to practice on. I pay him $80 a month out of my own pocket, and early in the morning and late in the afternoon he works around the apartment, and at other times he is here at the department looking after my needs." Mr. Hays likes his protege's pluck, his desire to progress and his ambition to make something out of himself. Louchlou came over as a steerage passenger and begun his career as waiter. Jimmie Regan noticed him and took him to his place in New Jer- These men were killed in an effort of the Germans to ascertain the identity of the American troops facing their lines. They put down a box barrage completely surrounding men of Company F of the Sixteenth infantry and captured a number of them, in addition to killing the soldiers named in the War department statement. The following extract from the inscription on the monument erected at Bathlemon, Lorraine, by the people of the department of Meurthe-et-Moselle over the graves of the three American soldiers who first lost their lives in battle was furnished by Maj. Gen. C. P. Summerall: "Here, in Lorraine earth, rest the three first American soldiers who were killed in view of the enemy on the 3rd of November, 1917. Corporal James B.

Lorraine was enemy territory when this action took place. CONGRESS MAH PEOPLE'S LEGISLATIVE SERVICE The national council of the people's legislative service is made up of men and women in all parts of the country who are interested in the public welfare, as well as in that of some particular group. Thus, there are in the council the president of the Brotherhood of Bollermakers and Iron Ship Builders, the president of the Farmers' National council, the general secretary of the National Consumers' league, the president of the Alabama State Federation of Labor, the president of the Order of Railway Telegraphers, and many others representing important groups. These people are not in the council primarily as labor or farm representatives, however, but as members of the public. Harold Knutson of Minnesota, majority whip of the house, is serving his third term. He was born in 1875 (congressional directory doesn't say where). He got his education in the Minnesota schools and has been a newspaper editor and publisher. Representative Charles A. Christopherson of South Dakota was born in Minnesota in 1871. He is a lawyer and educator and member of several fraternal organizations. He was speaker of the state legislature. This is his second term. John M. Nelson of Wisconsin was born in that state in 1870; he is a lawyer and educator and has served in the house since 1907. Halvor Steenerson of Minnesota was born in Wisconsin in 1852. He is a lawyer and is interested in farming; this is his tenth term in the house. His people came from Telemarken. M. A. Michaelson represents the seventh Chicago district. He was born in Kristiansand in 1875 and began his Chicago career teaching school. Finally there is Andrew J. Volstead of Minnesota. He was born in that state in 1860. He is a lawyer and educator. He has been in the house since 1903. His people came from Telemarken. sey as his personal butler. It was there that Colonel Harvey saw him and became interested in his future. He was with Colonel Harvey about a year when Mr. Hays got him. "Andrew was ambitious to get out of service, manual labor," said Mr. Hays, "and I promised to help him. That is why I put him to work on this typewriter. He has taken out his first papers and will become an American as soon as possible. Yesterday he told me that he had paid $25 for lessons to operate an automobile. Soon he will be a good driver and can handle my car." EACH WAITS FOR OTHER TO BEGIN DISARMAMENT, IT IS BELIEVED IN WASHINGTON, MUST BE BY AGREEMENT OF ALL. AMERICA'S 'FEELERS' ARE OUT Replies to Secretary Hughes' Informal Inquiries Eagerly Awaited—Mearl while Man Is Busily Devising New Weapons of Warfare. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—It is apparent that the administration believes disarmament depends upon "the other fellow." Judging from the temper of congress, and from the editorial expressions of the newspapers of the country, there is a fixed belief that disarmament and agreement must be companions; in other words, that the nations together must disarm if great navies and great armies are to be cast away. It is believed in Washington that as soon as the Borah resolution calling for a naval disarmament conference between the United States, Great Britain and Japan was introduced, the President called on the state department to feel out not only Great Britain and Japan on the subject, but other great nations as well. It is probable that before long Secretary of State Hughes will have something definite to report to the President on the matter. There is recognition in official circles in Washington of the fact that the United States is divided into two camps on the subject of disarmament; one of them, the larger camp, being that of what the officials call the rationals, and the other, the smaller but still powerful camp, of what they call the irrationals. The rationals, according to the Washington viewpoint, are those who want disarmament to come by agreement among the nations of the world. The so-called irrationals are those who want the United States to scrap its navy and disband its army, no matter what the other nations may do. This course naturally would leave this country open to any possible enemy who thought that the time had not yet come to throw its rifles on the slag pile. Making New Warfare Implements. In the meantime man everywhere is traveling along the lines of invention of new implements of warfare, or of those which lead into the field of the making of implements which will render present implements of warfare obsolete. Within a short time there will be an attempt on the part of the air service of the United States army to prove that airplanes quickly can put battleships out of commission, and therefore that hereafter the whole course of naval construction must be changed. The navy officers say that their ships can keep out of the way of all the airplanes, and not only this, but with guns on their own decks they can prevent the approach of the air hawks. Moreover, they say that planes launched from their decks can help in the work of keeping the air enemy at a distance. At the time of the other experiments the chemical warfare service will try to prove that its weapons are just as effective against ships as they are against land forces. Awaiting Replies to "Feelers." So it is easy enough to see that, while disarmament is being discussed, the nations of the world are not staying their hands from the work of inventing new and deadly contrivances to put their fellow men, who happen to belong to other countries, out of the running. The recognition apparently is complete in all countries that, if disarmament is to be a fact and the invention of new and more deadly weapons of war is to be brought to a standstill, there must be complete agreement among all the powerful nations to disarm and to check the inventors in their work. Washington is awaiting with intense interest the replies to the disarmament "feelers" which the State department has put out. There have been hints from various sources that Great Britain and Japan may be willing to sit at a disarmament conference, and of course it is known that, if these nations agree, others probably will be willing to agree. A disarmament conference would be in the highest sense a peace conference, for, if real disarmament comes, the nations that want to fight will have to do it with stones, clubs or fists, and such scraps are not particularly deadly. Tariff Bill Slow in Making. Congress, as the country knows, is moving slowly along the lines of tariff legislation. It was believed early last spring that, because of the seeming indifference to the subject throughout the land, the law makers could go ahead and frame their new bill without delay and without much objection, and have it ready for the presidential signature at an early date. This belief has changed. When hearings on the various schedules were being held by the ways and means committee of the house of representatives, the lack of interest in the general tariff subject by some of the greater American industries was remarked upon. There seemed to be a feeling throughout the country that the schedules in the bill were to be adjusted in a compromise way to meet the issues of war's aftermath, and that nothing that could be urged before the committee would change the general intention. Whether the tariff bill will meet these conditions or not will depend entirely upon the developments of the future, but a bill with the intent noted in view is the kind of bill that probably will be enacted. The dye, metal, wool and lumber schedules are the ones which have caused the greater controversies and which are responsible mainly for the delay in getting the legislation under way. Lumber Producers Don't Agree. Seemingly the lumber producing sections of the country are divided on the question of the duty on the finished products of lumber. The ways and means committee by a majority vote decided to put a duty of 25 per cent ad valorum on finished lumber. The vote was taken in the committee and this duty carried. Instantly there was trouble. The northwestern sections of the country seem to be opposed to this 25 per cent duty, while in some of the other sections of the country it is claimed the duty is favored by lumber men. At this writing it is not known definitely just what the outcome will be, but attempts are being made to get the committee to reconsider its action and to remove the duty. There will be a fight in the house over this schedule of the bill, no matter what the committee may report. The wool schedule continues to create dissension. As somebody has put it, wool is always a breeder of the "tick of trouble." The particular antidote for tick which the Agricultural department recommends to all shepherds seemingly cannot be of service in the present case. So far as congress is concerned, wool always has contained an itching irritant. The original draft of the schedule as prepared by the subcommittee this year has been abandoned. Opposition developed to it among some of the majority members of the committee. So it is today that the committee has been compelled to ask the tariff commission for information on which it can redraft, if it wants to, the provisions of the wool schedule. Dye Industry to Be Posted The metal and dye industries are deeply interested in the present tariff measure. It is said that the determination of the majority in congress is to see to it that a dye industry shall be built up which will make the United States independent of other countries in dye products in the future. The war produced an argument in favor of shutting out dyes by means of a high tariff. The dye industry of Germany was responsible scientifically for the Germans' great advance in some of the material of warfare, explosives, gas and other things. The argument is being advanced that hereafter the United States must be able to produce its own from well-established industries and not be compelled to wait on experiment and on the building of factories in case war should come. There is opposition, of course, to the dye proposition as it is likely to be set forth in the tariff bill, the argument being that a monopoly will be created. War Grafters to Be Hunted Down. The attorney general's office has announced that there will be an investigation of war profiteering on the government, that it intends to make the inquiry thorough and to bring punishment down on the guilty. The attorney general, in connection with this matter, has said: "The government is not going after the little fellows. We can afford to throw the minnows back and let them start over again. It is the big fellows that we are after and expect to get." No one, of course, can tell whether the investigation will result in disclosing proofs of guilt and in the conviction of the guilty. It is said that about only one government investigation in five ever produces real results, but this in a general way may be put down to the fact that the government, especially the congressional part of it, has the investigating habit fixed, and is given to ordering inquiries into this matter and the other matter without much regard to the strength of the initial facts in the case. Others Who Are More Despicable. The grafters on the government during the war were high scale robbers, but, as the expression goes, they were not in it in meanness with the profiteers who preyed directly on the people, an I particularly on men who were going to give up good paying places to enter one or the other of the armed services of the country. There are some thousands of ex-soldiers who would hold a jubilation as hearty as the one which followed the armistice if some of the cheap criminals who grafted on them would be made the object of government investigation and of subsequent punishment. The young fellows who were commissioned were obliged to buy their uniforms. They would go into a store and buy blouse and breeches, paying therefor about twice their value. It is true that if they had exercised proper judgment and had had plenty of time on their hands they might have looked about a bit and secured something from an honest merchant at a proper price, but when men were commissioned one day, and ordered to join their outfits two days thereafter, they did not have time to hunt bargains.

OW long, O Lord! How long!” ‘This biblical expression uttered by an H oppressed people centuries ago, Is resurrected by the ery of Negro citi- zens of America today, as with the evidences of lawlessness on the increase by a certain element of the race that vaunts itself of superiority in Christian morals and virtues, attempts to present its civilization as the high- est and best standard for other nations to follow; engages in foreign mission- ary work to transform the heathen from his pagan belief to the doctrine of Christianity; to make a new being of the savage—the barbarian—yea, the yery TURK, whom he accredits as a blot, a stain on civilization by his bloody methods in dealing with humanity and his immorality that he thrusts upon the world; this race—this great dominant power that sways the sceptre over the other races of the world, and never hesitates to clothe itself with the pride of being an arch-civilizing agent, has given every proof of disintegra- tion, and threatens by its compromise, by its inactivity, by its quiescence and hoodwinking at the cruel wrongs perpetrated on our people, his own down- fall which must be his lot sooner or later.

HERE are so many and varied forms of business today, especially during Tints postwar season, thot one views vith alarm whether the readjustment period will bring about a result of improved conditions or whether .the handwriting is on the wall, spelling gloom to the sudden growth of the nu- merous business ventures springing up in Denver at every clock-tick.

Forees are being united to guard against what seems to be the inevitable and will in the end attempt a challenge to the stability of the strongest or most reliable business institutions of this portion of the country. Nor is this all. ‘The epidemic has caught our people, and each succeeding week a bysiness venture along the lines aforementioned presents itself to the people.

It must be real MM education, Of piactical value ine contrasted with ace- ay : demie teaching by schedule. It must give the pupil facts and training that will be always useful. It must deal with the realities of the environ- ment of the individual. It must make clear the homely truths of every- day life.

And it must be education that results in a tangible, vital force in the consciousness of the individual. ‘The department is working for open county conferences in every county of every state. The purpose is to bring together the women of each county, to show them their community needs and how they may co-operate through community groups and to point out the ways in which the General Fed- eration of Women’s Clubs may be of service. ‘These conferences are de- voted to the consideration of the work of the three divisions of the applied education department—education, home economics and conservation of natural resources, The beneficial effects of these open county conferences, followed by community group co-operation, cannot be overestimated. This program makes the women see for themselves their own home and community needs and shows them how these may be met. It is based upon action instead of theory and actually functions in the lives of women. It stimulates initiative, inspires and develops leadership and increases the sense of indi- vidual responsibility to the community. It results in the development of better American citizens. United States’ Foreign Trade Policy Should Be Live and Let Live By FRANK A. VANDERLIP, New York Financier ‘The very necessity of her situation will compel Germany to organize her industries on the most efficient possible basis, which means low pro- duction costs. It is up to us to meet German eficieney with equal or greater efficiency, not for the purpose of killing off German foreign trade, but simply to maintain our position. Our foreign trade policy should be live and let live, recognizing that in the case of both England and Germany, their existence as great nations depends upon their ability to export great quantities of goods. Their ex- port trade is vital to them, With us foreign trade is important but not vital. There had heen developed over a period of many years a machine of the greatest intricacy and delicacy for the exchaige of goods among na- tions. ‘The war smashed this machine into bits. It will require time, great intelligence and much patience to put it together again. With No Revolvers, the Holdup Man’s Victims Would Have a Chance By JOHN R.

It is merely a weapon for the thug, the holdup man and the murderer. It is impossible to turn to any useful purpose, as one uses the rifle or shotgun, Where would our holdup man, doing such a thriving business in Chieago today, be, if he could not get hold of a revolver? He couldn't very well go round packing a shotgun or rifle, and if he carried only a piece of lead pipe or club the vietim would at least have a fighting chance.

But they're all wrong. Fifty per cent of the men who come to my court seeking a divorce have had their chances for matrimonial hap- piness wrecked by wives who wouldn’t talk, The most dangerous sort of a helpmate is the woman who sulks. I believe the majority of unhappy husbands are tired of their wives because the latter stilk and refuse to talk when they are displeased with something the husband has or has not done. \ When a man says, “Dear, did you have a good time at the movie, this afternoon?” and the wife answers by tilting her chin in the air and calmly ignoring the fact that her husband has addressed her, there’s going to be trouble. ‘You see, a man is vain.

Wolves make deadly ravages among the dogs and reindeer of the Eskimo. But the Eskimo now captures wolves in large numbers by means of big hut-like traps made of ice. The front of the hut, which is of ice, slides up and down. Inside the hut is a joint of raw meat, suspended by a piece of rope to the sliding front, and when a wolf tears down the meat the front drops into place and he is caught.

At This Office "AUTO-ARM" IS LATEST MOTORING SIGNAL TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS LEFT UNDERWOOD & UNDERWOOD The picture practically tells its own tale of this new auto signal, calculated to keep the cars following from bumping into one. Also, the signal tells the traffic cop ahead what the chauffeur intends to do at the corner. The device is situated directly in front of the driver, so that he knows what signal is showing—no chance of a breakdown causing an accident. The operating lever is within easy reach from the driving wheel. Steel Lever Working on a Pivot So Arranged That It Is Easily Operated. ADAPTABLE TO ALL WEATHERS Device Shown in Illustration Is Practical and Convenient in All Cases Where Double Doors Have Been Installed. The usual style of latch for garage and other double doors that are exposed on one side to the weather, allows the doors to warp, which makes them difficult to fasten. To avoid this, the fastener shown in the sketch was devised. The device consists of a 16-inch long, 2-inch wide, and 4-inch thick steel lever working on a pivot on one door, a washer being placed between the door and the lever. At 4 inch on the right and left-hand sides of the pivot, holes are bored. Two U-shaped pieces are then made out of flat iron bars that are of sufficient size to slide easily along the bar. Bar Holds Plungers. Two 1-inch round bars are cut to such a length that they will project 1½ inches over the top of one door This Device Will Be Found to Be a Practical and Convenient Door Fastener Which Gives Satisfaction in All Weathers. and the bottom of the other. One end of each bar is then welded to the center of each U-shaped piece, a hole being bored at a right angle to the side of the piece and through the legs. A rivet is then inserted through the hole in the round bar and legs of the U section. The rivet should be of sufficient tightness to allow the bar to move freely up and down. Make a guide out of a piece of a rectangular iron bar, part of which should be twisted while hot at a right angle. A hole of sufficient size to slip over the top of the plunger is bored in one end, and screw holes put through the opposite end. This bar holds the plunger in a vertical position. Prevent Wear on Holes. To prevent wear on the holes in the casing and sill, it is best to have a short, flat bar of steel with a hole bored in its center and also screw holes near its ends, screwed to the top casing and sill of the door. A guide is also to be made for the bottom plunger. Both the top and bottom plunger rods should be tapered slightly at their ends, so that they will easily enter the holes bored in the casing and sill. When the handle of the lever is in a horizontal position the plunger rods are Jever with the top and bottom of the doors. A rabbit nailed to the outside of one door and extending over the joint, makes a storm-proof joint. For entering the building, it is customary to have a small door made in the large door opposite the one carrying the lever.—W. S. Standiford in Popular Science Monthly. BRAKE RODS REQUIRE CAREFUL ATTENTION BRAKE RODS REQUIRE CAREFUL ATTENTION Majority of Automobile Owners Neglect Them. Inspection Should Be Made at Least Every Month From Pedal to Drum, Particularly Parts Difficult to Get At. The brakes of an automobile are designed for efficiency and long life if given proper attention, but because it is inconvenient to clean and inspect and lubricate them, the majority of auto owners utterly neglect them. Every month or two there should be an inspection of the brakes from pedal to drum, particularly the parts that are out of sight under the car and difficult to get at, according to H. Clifford Brokaw, of West side Y. M. C. A. auto schools, New York city. They should be cleaned of mud and gummed grease with kerosene, oil holes should be opened up thoroughly and every part inspected for wear. Small parts which are worn may be replaced for a few cents and this may prevent a serious accident caused by the brakes giving away at a critical time. The brake linkage should be lubricated in accordance with the lubrication chart of the car with persistent regularity. Brakes will work easier, and give better service if they are taken care of. Likewise they should be kept adjusted so that they work with equal force upon each wheel. Uneven adjustment produces undue wear on tires and is a frequent cause of skidding. The adjustment is so simple there is no excuse for neglecting this. CRANK CAUGHT ON BACKFIRE Hook So Arranged That It Will Not Interfere With "Spinning" of Auto Engine. That little hook turns the trick. If the engine backfires when you are cranking it, it can fly back only so far as the hook, when the hook catches and holds it, thus preventing it from flying on around and hitting you on Hook Catches Crank. the back of the forearm and breaking it—an experience all too many men have had. The hook is so made and hung that it will not interfere with the "spinning" of the engine in cranking it, but at the same time will catch the crank on a backfire and keep it from turning a full revolution. PLAN FOR LAPPING PISTONS Of Many Substances Used in Operation Rotten Stone Has Been Found Most Satisfactory. Many substances are used in the operation of 'lapping pistons. Among them are fine emery dust, ground glass and rotten stone, of which the latter gives best results. When the glass is used there is always a possibility that some particles of it will become imbedded in piston or cylinder metal. Racing drivers use rotten stone, mixing a little cylinder oil with it to form a thin paste. In lapping the piston it should be given both a reciprocating and oscillating motion. IRISH PROBLEM NEARS SOLUTION VAST DIFFICULTIES REMAIN TO BE REMOVED AT COMING CONFERENCE. WILL WAIVE DEMANDS PEACE TERMS WILL CALL FOR DOMINION RULE AND PARLIAMENT AT DUBLIN. London, July 8.—The premier's conference, for the time being, is eclipsed by the peace negotiations with the Sinn Fein leaders. Premier Jan Christian Smuts of South Africa has thrown his prestige on the side of a settlement. The British press is standing by him, and this, aided by the favorable atmosphere created by the presence here of the dominion premiers has, it is believed, brought the Irish problem much nearer solution. Vast difficulties still stand in the way of an agreement. Thus far Premier Smuts has been successful, but the real obstacles will be encountered when the British government, North Ulster and the Sinn Fein meet face to face in conference. From an Irish Nationalist source closely in touch with Premier Smuts and the British government, it is learned what Eamonn De Valera is likely to propose should he come here. It is declared he will abandon the claim for an Irish republic, but will insist on a measure of dominion home rule, with a separate parliament for North Ulster, vested with powers similar to those enjoyed by Canadian provincial legislatures. He also will ask that the central or Dublin parliament be vested with a wide measure of fiscal autonomy. It is said he desires also that the Irish parliament shall have the right of controlling its own army and navy, if these should be found necessary. He will demand that the Irish control the police and postoffice departments, and will ask for full recognition of the unity of the Irish nation. He will maintain that the Irish parliament should be given the right to decide its own taxation policy and the manner in which its revenue shall be expended, holding that the power of controlling the taxation of its constituents is inherent in the parliament. This would involve giving Dublin a free voice on income tax, customs and excise, and also the right of withholding any contribution towards the defense of the empire. Premier Lloyd George, it is almost certain, would insist on an imperial contribution, because the imperial parliament would remain responsible for defense and foreign affairs, although in a last resort he might agree that the Irish parliament should have some voice in the amount. Then there remains Ulster. While anxious to go as far as possible in placating the south, British statesmen are equally anxious to see that the northern section will be afforded all possible rights. Sir James Craig, premier of Ulster, will enter the conference, provided one is held, under restrictions, just as De Valera will probably be hampered by limitations. Salesman Loses $175,000 in Gems.

DuPont Appointed to Senate Vacancy. Dover, Deh.-Gen. T. Coleman DuPont has been appointed United States senator from Delaware by Governor Denney to succeed Josiah O. Wolcott, who resigned recently to become chancellor of Delaware. General DuPont, who is the Delaware member of the Republican national committee, will serve the unexpired term, which runs until March, 1923. The appointment of General DuPont adds a Republican to the Senate, Senator Wolcott having been elected to the office as a Democrat. French Protest Tariff Provision. Paris.—The French government has forwarded to M. Jusserand, French ambassador in Washington, for transmission to the State Department there, a protest of the French Chamber of Commerce against the provision of the new American tariff law calling for inspection by American agents of the books of French exporters for the purpose of determining the ad valorem duties to be collected by the United States.

CLUB GIRL'S WORK RESULTS IN BUILDING NEW HOME FOR FAMILY THE WEEKLY PRESS Home Demonstration Agent Assisting Girl's Club Members in the Selection of a Garden Spot. MAKE WHIPS AND CUSTARD DISHES Eggs Form Basis of Many Delicious Desserts During Early Spring and Summer. SOME SIMPLE RECIPES GIVEN Varifty Housewives Take Advantage of Plentiful Supply of Eggs to Convert Them Into Nutritious (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) In early spring and summer, when eggs are plentiful and cheap, the thrifty among the housekeepers utilize plenty of them for desserts. When this is done the rest of the meal does not need to be quite so "hearty." The following recipes are recommended by food specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture: Soft Custard. 1 cup milk 2 tablespoons sugar ¼ teaspoon vanilla 1-16 teaspoon salt 1 egg Heat the milk in a double boiler. Mix the eggs in a bowl with the sugar and salt. Add hot milk slowly, stirring, and return mixture to the double boiler. Cook until custard will coat a silver spoon. Strain and serve. If the custard curdles set the pan into cold water and beat the custard until smooth. Steamed or Baked Custard. 1 pint milk ¼ cup sugar 2 eggs ½ teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon nutmeg or cinnamon Mix eggs as for soft custard. Strain into custard cups and steam until firm over hot water, which is boiling gently. To bake, strain the custard into cups and place in a pan of warm water. Bake in a moderate oven until the custard is firm. To test a steamed or A woman in a white dress and hat is kneeling in front of an old-fashioned oven, holding a pot and a kettle.

If the knife is not coated the custard has cooked enough. Grate the nutmeg over the surface and cool before serving. Floating Island. 1 quart milk 5 eggs (yolks) ¼ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon vanilla ½ cup sugar Prepare as a soft custard. The whites CLUB GIRL'S WORK BUILDING NEW Home Demonstration Agent Assisting tion of a (Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture.) Three years ago Irene Garner of Madison county, Ala., joined a girl's gardening and canning club. Each year since she has cleared a good profit on her work. She gave this to her parents on condition that they build themselves a new home as soon as possible. The time before they decided on the step seemed long to the little club girl, but meanwhile she kept industriously at the club work and followed her leader's instructions. Soon the results of her efforts became apparent in the home. Then she persuaded her father to take up newer lines of development on his farm, and last year he built the modern, attractive country home which had been promised her. --- should be beaten light and two tablespoons powdered sugar added for the meringue. When the custard is cool it may be poured into sauce dishes and the meringue dropped in large spoonfuls into it. Custard Pudding. ½ cup pearl taploca ½ cup sugar or rice 2 cups milk 2 eggs (yolks) 2 eggs (whites) ½ teaspoon vanilla ½ teaspoon salt Soak the taploca in enough cold water to cover it until it absorbs the water. Add the milk and cook in a double boiler until the taploca is soft and transparent. Combine the yolks of eggs with sugar and salt and add to the mixture in the double boiler. Cook until it thickens. Add stiffly beaten whites and flavoring, and when cold serve. Rice must be cooked in boiling water until soft. Apple Whip. 2 cups apple sauce Cream for serving 3 eggs (whites) Cook six or eight medium-sized tart apples until soft in just enough water to keep them from burning. Add sirup to sweeten sufficiently and one-eighth teaspoonful grated nutmeg. Cool. Press the apple sauce through a strainer and add to it the stiffly beaten whites of eggs. Beat until light and foamy. Pile onto saucers and serve with fresh cream or a custard sauce made of the egg yolks. This sauce may be prepared by the same method as for soft custard, omitting the whites of eggs. Canned fruit, such as peaches, figs, cherries or guava, may be substituted in the same proportion for the apples. LEMONS CONDUCE TO HEALTH AND PLEASE LEMONS CONDUCE TO HEALTH AND PLEASE Have New Importance in Diet, Say Specialists. Long List of Beverages and Desserts In Which Juice Can Be Used, as Well as in Number of Sauces for Fish and Meat. In the olden times sailors who took long trips and ate no fresh vegetables and fruits for weeks or months were likely to fall victims to scurvy. Finally a cure or a partial cure for it was found in lemon juice. Of late years scientists have been making a study of scurvy, its cause and its cure and of the conditions that make the body proof against this disease. They have discovered a substance called vitamine C, which seems to prevent and even to cure this disease. It is found in many foods, among them tomatoes and such citrus fruits as oranges, grapefruit and lemons. Lemons, therefore, have a new importance in the diet, according to food specialists in the United States Department of Agriculture, office of home economics. They are no longer to be valued simply for their flavor, but also as a source of one of these necessary substances. Lemons can be prepared in all sorts of ways in the preparation of meals. There is a long list of beverages and desserts in which lemon juice is used, as well as a number of delicious sauces that expert cooks have invented to serve on fish and meat. Many of these sauces the busy housekeeper has no time to make, but she can cut a lemon in two and put it on the table to serve with fish, oysters, or meat. Some people think that a little lemon juice adds just the zest needed to make eggs on toast a tasteful dish. Lemon juice is also good on spinach and other green vegetables, on many kinds of salads, and also as flavoring for pudding sauces and cakes. K RESULTS IN HOME FOR FAMILY g Girls' Club Members in the Selec- Garden Spot. Irene learned from her club leader how to finish floors and woodwork and how to paper a wall. Then she and a small brother put the lessons into practice, and the whole interior of the house was finished by their efforts. Her own room she furnished with a quaint old suite of furniture which she made over. The rag rug on the floor she made herself as well as the curtains at the window. Little money was expended, but much taste and ingenuity were put into the room. Besides being an expert gardener and canner, this Madison county girl can embroider and sew, can cook nicely, and serve a properly-balanced meal. Last but not least, she finds time to be a leader of her community in all social affairs. ORIGINA The Kitchen Cabinet (© 1920 Western Newsaper Union.) To know what you prefer, instead of humely saying amen to what the world tells you you ought to prefer, is to have left your soul alive.—R. L. SUMMER BREAKFASTS. The -warm weather breakfast will be lighter, of less food value, but sufficiently sustaining to keep machlinery working. Unless a person is working at hard labor a breakfast of fruit, a dish of cereal, an egg with toast taining to keep machinery working. Unless a person is working at hard labor a breakfast of fruit, a dish of cereal, an egg with toast or a bit of bacon with a cupful of coffee or cocoa or a glass of milk is a satisfying meal. The cereal may be one that has been previously cooked and to serve it put it through a ricer, with cream and sugar. In a morning when the weather permits serve this best of waffles: Waffles.—Take one and one-quarter cupful of sifted flour, one half teaspoonful each of soda and salt, one cupful of thick sour milk, the yolks of two eggs and the whites beaten stiff. Sift the dry ingredients, add the egg yolk with the milk and stir in after the mixture has been well beaten three tablespoonfuls of melted butter. Fold in the egg whites and bake on a hot waffle iron. Serve with cold maple sirup. If the hot sirup is used it destroys the crispness which is the charm of a waffle. Southern Eggs.—Butter small ramekins and half fill with hot boiled rice. Slip a raw egg in each, season with salt and pepper, butter, grated cheese and a little chopped boiled ham. Set the dishes into hot water and cook in a moderate oven until the eggs are set. Salmon Salad.—Take a can of salmon, add equal measures of chopped celery, a few olives finely minced, a sour pickle chopped, and one-half cupful of fresh grated coconut. If the fresh is not obtainable soak in a little sweet milk until soft. Serve on lettuce with a plain boiled dressing. Madras Beef.—Slice two small onions, one apple and a stalk or two of celery very fine, cook in hot butter, sprinkle a tablespoonful of curry powder over the dish, add the juice of half a lemon and turn in a few slices of rare roast beef cut very thin with a cupful of roast beef gravy. Simmer 20 minutes and serve with hot seasoned rice. Every occupation lifts itself with the enlarging life of him who practices it. The occupation that will not do that no man really has a right to occupy himself about. LEFTOVERS AND OTHER THINGS. A most tasty salad may be prepared from a cupful or two of mashed potato, using a little of the heart of head lettuce to mix with it, a little chopped onion and cucumber with a salad dressing. Let stand an hour or two to season, and serve in the curled leaf of head lettuce. ```markdown ``` Liver Croquettes.—To a pound of chopped liver, parboiled and then chopped, add one small onion minced; salt and pepper to season. Take two tablespoonfuls of flour and milk to form a thin batter; stir in the chopped liver and drop by spoonfuls into a hot greased spider. Brown quickly on both sides. An egg may be added to the batter which improves the patties. Creole Dish.—Take two cupfuls of cooked rice, a cupful of boiled or broiled ham chopped; season with salt, cayenne and a tablespoonful of sugar; put into a buttered pan, cover with cracker crumbs and bake until brown in the oven. All bits of ham, whether boiled, baked or otherwise cooked should be saved, for a tablespoonful of minced ham will add just the appetizing touch to a dish which will make it out of the ordinary. Bigos—Take sausage meat or pork, chicken or in fact any leftover chopped meat; add to sauerkraut and cook in the oven for two or three hours. This may be warmed up and will be good as long as it lasts. Hungarian Potato Soup—Cut four or five good sized potatoes into small cubes, and put to cook in one quart of broth. Cut fine four good sized onions and fry lightly in three tablespoonfuls of butter, add one tablespoonful of paprika and three tablespoonfuls of flour; stir and mix well; then add one pint of strained tomato, rather thick; let simmer one-half hour then add the potato cubes with the broth. Add one cupful of cream and season well just before serving. Sweetbread Cream Soup.—Parbion one pair of sweetbreads, remove the skin and cut them in quarter-inch cubes, fry in two tablespoonfuls of butter, sprinkle with two tablespoonfuls of flour, stir and mix well, then add two quarts of veal broth. Simmer for thirty minutes, season with salt and grated nutmeg; before serving add one cupful of cream beaten with the yolks of four eggs. Chopped meat of any kind added to cooked mush makes a most nourishing dish when fried, after cutting in slices.

Now that women have the vote, For which they strove to gain. Some day the White House may be By a presidential train. For those who must live on a restricted meat diet the various combinations of vegetables and nuts will appeal. Pea Roast.—Take three cupfuls of dry bread that has been rolled and put through a sieve Pea Roast.—Take three cupsfuls of dry bread that has been rolled and put through a sieve. Take a pint of cooked green peas, drain and while hot put through a puree sieve. Mix the crumbs with the pulp; there should be about three-quarters of a cupful; add quarter of a cupful of walnut meats chopped, one egg slightly beaten, one teaspoonful of sugar, and one-fourth of a cup of melted butter with three-fourths of a cup of milk. Mix well and turn into a well buttered pan—a paraffin paper lining will be good to use in the pan. Bake forty minutes in a slow oven. Serve with tomato sauce. Pecan Loaf.—Soak one cupful of rice over night in cold water, drain and add one cupful of pecan meats coarsely chopped, one cupful of cracker crumbs, one cupful of milk, one egg beaten, one and one-half teaspoonfuls of salt and a few dashes of pepper. Turn into a buttered bread pan and spread with softened butter. Bake one hour in a moderate oven. Serve unmolded garnished with chopped seasoned carrots. Cook the carrots in as little water as possible, dress with butter, a dash of cayenne minced parsley and lemon juice. Polish Batwnia.—Peel one dozen beets after cooking and place them in a jar with one quart of warm water and one pint of good vinegar. Let stand several days. The day the soup is to be made, strain the liquid from the beets, add one quart of water and put it with two pounds of beef on to cook. Boll and skim. Cut up the beets, also two or three onions and add to the soup. Cook for three or four hours, take out the beef, cut in pieces about one-half inch square, remove the fat from the soup and thicken with one pint of sour cream beaten with the yolks of four eggs. I pray not that men tremble at my power of place and lordly sway; I only pray for simple grace to look my neighbor in the face full honestly from day to day. ECONOMICAL DISHES. A good way to serve a small amount of meat for a good sized family is to cook the meat with the vegetables; the flavor of the meat seasons the vegetables, and less meat is needed to satisfy the appetite. my is to cook the meat with the vegetables; the flavor of the meat seasons the vegetables, and less meat is needed to satisfy the appetite. When preparing lamb or mutton pie, if the meat seems scant add a few peas to give flavor and nourishment, and thus extend the dish. A dish nice for a busy day is prepared by slicing potatoes very thin, put into a shallow granite baking dish, season with salt and pepper and cover with pork steak or chops, then bake. The chops will season the potatoes and the dish may be served at the table from the dish in which it was baked. Sunday Night Salad.—Take one can of peas, drained and aired for an hour or two; one cupful of finely minced celery, three-fourths of a cupful of fresh peanuts, rolled until like coarse crumbs, two small green onions, minced, one-half cupful of olives, finely minced, and three hard-cooked eggs, reserving a few eighths to garnish the top of the salad. Mix well with a good highly seasoned mayonnaise dressing and serve in a nest of lettuce which lines a bowl that has been rubbed with a clove of garlic. Dates added to a baked custard makes a dessert which the children will enjoy, and provides a sweet which is perfectly wholesome. Add them to rice, taploca, or any cooked cereal, making an otherwise common dish unusual. Shirred Eggs With Asparagus.—For four eggs have a cupful of cream sauce; into this stir three-fourths of a cupful of asparagus tips and one or two tablespoonfuls of chopped cooked chicken or veal, or ham. Spread this mixture in buttered egg shrimpers; into each break a fresh egg; sprinkle with salt, and half a teaspoonful of melted butter on each. Cook in the oven until the egg is set. Serve at once. The following menu for moderate breakfast of a normal kind will afford a scope for individual preference: Stewed prunes with apple sauce, cooked cereal with cream and sugar, broiled whitefish, baked potato, toast and coffee. Orange or grapefruit, shredded wheat biscuit, lamb chops, creamed potatoes, muffins, marmalade, coffee or cocoa. Nellie Maxwell A. HASER, Prop.

Call Main 7417 PRESS COMMENT: No library is complete without Scott's History of "The American Negro in the World War." and no better legacy could be left to posterity than this great work of Negro heroism and patriotism. Suits of Divergent Lines widens toward the bottom and has long coat sleeves. These are finished at the hand with two narrow folds. WHERE there are rumors, creeping and flying about, that Fashion has resolutely turned her back on everything but long and full skirts, there are also signs that a revolt against her new ruling is brewing. The very short and very narrow skirt is no more, but it is not to be succeeded by skirts going to the other extreme, for street wear at least. This is a case of self-determination for American women and the long skirt is an abomination on the street. The snappy suit in black and white shepherd's check at the left is built on entirely different lines, more familiar and more graceful. It has at least an even chance with its competitor for success. These checked suits are shown in several quiet two-color combinations, as brown and blue, brown and beige, blue and gray and so on, and these darker colors are practical for winter as well as summer wear. The suit pictured has a straight skirt, wide enough for comfort and long enough for style. Its businesslike, mannish lines follow those of the figure vaguely. It has revers and crescent-shaped pockets bound with braid and fastens at the waistline with two link buttons. The suit at the right of the two Nectured embodies all the promised innovations in style, in a conservative way: the long, wide skirt, the sharply defined waistline, and it awaits the approval of many women. It is made of a soft wool suit with a plain skirt. The coat is embellished with an embroidered panel at the front that XX milan is turned upward about the brim edge and has a crown of taffeta silk with circular piece at the center and two scant puffs about the side crown. It is trimmed with a ribbon about the crown with flat tailored brim at the back and front. IN HATS, as in suits, the styles designed for sports wear were the forerunners of others that have a wider field of usefulness, but preserve the smartness and informality of sport models. No better word has been discovered for describing millinery of this sort than "outdooring" hats. They are simply a combination of sport and tailored ideas that make the most adaptable of millinery and the most comfortable and durable as well. The sport hat, pure and simple, is indeed simple, but the out dooring hat often only makes believe to be simple, its making is sometimes an intricate piece of work. A modified sailor shape, in lisere braid with a slightly rolling brim, is finished with a wide band of fallie ribbon. Such a hat is much at home anywhere that sport or street hats are worn, as one may gather from the sweater coat and angora scarf found in the company of a high-necked lace jabot that are shown with it. The fine, wide-brimmed Panama hat, having its wide crown covered with narrow fallie ribbon in two colors, is of just the same character as the sailor hat. The ribbon is cleverly placed in two overlapping and interwoven rows, The group of hats shown above includes adaptable models that will prove very useful to their owners. At the top is a shape with a bell crown draped with wide, soft braid and a straight brim of yedda, all in white. Plafted strands of narrow black and white ribbon outline the brim and a sash of the black ribbon encircles the crown.
