LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY LIBERIA GETS FIVE MILLION DOLLAR LOAN VOL. XXVII. WASHINGTON. July 25. — The American government is preparing to loan the Republic of Liberia 85,000,000 to prevent valuable concessions from failing into the hands of the British or French, according to Secretary Mellon in his testimony before the Senate finance committee. The legislation necessary to obtain the consent of Congress for the advancement of this sum has already been formulated. A bill is in the hands of Senator Penrose, but he will not formally offer it until he has consulted the State Department through which negotiations for the loan have been conducted. Mr. Mellon denied that an agreement had been reached to defer payment of interest on the British debt fifteen years. He said reports in London and New York to this effect were "wholly unfounded and absolutely inconceivable." He added that the Treasury Department is not entertaining such a proposition. It is probable that Secretary Hughes will be called before the finance committee in connection with the refund of the foreign indebtedness. Mr. Hughes advised the judiciary committee several weeks ago, when an investigation of the foreign loan situation was being made, that many features of the correspondence with other nations should not be published without the consent of these governments. Little progress was made in refunding matter. Secretary Mellon will come before the committee next Monday and continue his explanation of the situation. He promised to bring additional documents that are sought by the committee if they can be located. The matter of the contemplated loan to Liberia was laid before the committee by Senator Watson of Indiana. He stated that he learned of the proposed advance while conferring yesterday with Secretary Hughes. He asked the secretary regarding the $5,000,000 credit heretofore established here in favor of Liberia. He was informed that the credit remains intact except for a disbursement to defray the expenses of the Liberian delegates to the peace conference at Paris. The revelation surprised most of the committee. It was recalled that a commission from Liberia recently visited Washington seeking a loan, but the impression prevailed that it had been deried by the administration. "If we do not advance $5,000,000 to Liberia to safeguard commercial interests in that country," Senator Watson added, "Great Britain and France will. It is purely a business proposition and one that is recognized by the State Department as absolutely necessary." WANTS ASSAULTED GIRL TO SAY NEGROES DID IT. Meridian, Miss., July 30.—Later information from Bell Pine, Rankin county, where a criminal assault occurred on a young woman, corrects some of the inaccuracies in the published statements. The young woman was only 16 years of age and not 30, as given out. Her father is a minister. The young lady, had been on a visit the day before to friends a few miles from her home and was returning to her home alone Saturday morn- State Hist. & Nat Hist Soc. state House emplar Dane 9, Admission COLORA E MILLION DOLLAR AN ing on a lonely country road. She states that two white men met her and that one held a shotgun on her while the other gagged her, and that both men then assaulted her and left her. Bloodhounds were brought from Crystal Springs and put on the trail, but without success. The affair occurred near the southern boundary of Rankin county and the sheriffs of Rankin and Simpson immediately summoned posses and went in pursuit. Two young white men, filling the description of the girl, were arrested, but when brought before her she declared they were not the parties. Efforts were made to induce her to declare light skinned Negroes assaulted her. She denied this, however. SEIZED AS SPEEDER; STEPS ON GAS; FLEES WITH $2,000 IN LIQUOR. Winchester, Va., July 19.—An automobile carrying 100 gallons of liquor, worth approximately $2,000, bound from Staunton, Va., to Hagerstown, Md., was in custody of local police today but at an opportune moment the driver, George Robinson, colored, Hagerstown, shot the "gas," and by a circuits route eluded his pursuers, who fired as he sped away. He was, however, caught at the West Virginia line, brought back and fined $60 for exceeding the speed limit and resisting arrest. Meanwhile, authorities believe, Robinson and alleged confederates changed automobiles and officers lost all track of the liquor. NEGRO DELEGATES WERE AC TIVE IN LONGSHOREMEN'S CONVENTION. Buffalo, N. Y.—Colored delegates were influentially active in the biennial International Longshoremen's convention which held its session here on July 11th. There were sixty-five delegates from the South and fifteen from the North, and the eighty Negro votes were always an important factor in the deciding of various issues before the body. There was absolutely no sign of color line distinction, so that there was no necessity for the massing of the colored men as an individual unit, but throughout the session there was evidence that their opinions and utterances were given the most respectful consideration. Several of the most important committee appointments were given to them, and in this capacity their work was of great value. In the election of officers, the race was given recognition, T. B. Woodland of Port Arthur, Texas, was elected as sixth vice-president, and Henry Gillespie, also of Port Arthur, Texas, was elected as twelfth vice-president. Among the strong delegations attending the convention and taking an active part in the deliberations, was the New Orleans men, led by A. Workman of 1732 Cleveland avenue, New Orleans, president of Longshoremen's P. U. B. A., local 231, first vice-president Gulf coast district and treasurer Central Labor Union. Other members of the delegation were J. S. Solomon, S. P. Local 849; T. A. Robinson of 2730 Peniston street, E. Williams of 3309 South Liberty street, and F. T. Chinn. National Association for the Advancement of Colored People Rights Injustice to Colored Soldiers. THE National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, with offices at 70 Fifth avenue, New York, through its National Secretary, James Weldon Johnson, today announced the receipt of a letter from the adjutant general of the War Department of the rectification of a letter in connection with the dishonorable discharge of Arthur K. Bird, a colored soldier of Company L, 58th infantry. According to Mr. Johnson's statement, Arthur K. Bird, on Feb. 1, 1921, upon the solicitation of a recruiting sergeant at Providence, R. L., re-listed in the army after having been honorably discharged recently from the 155th Depot brigade, a colored organization. Mr. Bird called the attention of a clerk that he had been erroneously listed as a white man. The clerk changed his designation under the heading "race" to "colored." Mr. Bird is of such fair complexion as to be easily mistaken for a white man. In spite of this correction, Mr. Bird was sent to the 58th infantry at Camp Lewis, Washington. Upon arrival at the camp he found that the 58th infantry was a white organization and again notified his commanding officer that he was not a white man. He was thereupon assigned to special duty. Later, Mr. Bird was dishonorably discharged, the reason being assigned as "fraudulent enlistment." In April, this case was referred to the National Office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, after Mr. Bird had been unable to secure correction of the error. "After an investigation of these circumstances connected with the enlistment of the soldier, it has been determined that he was erroneously discharged on the date and at the place mentioned. Upon request, Mr. Bird had forwarded his discharge certificate to this office, which certificate has been cancelled, and in lieu thereof, a certificate showing that he is entitled to be regarded as having been honorably discharged the military service has been prepared and forwarded this day to him." Negroes Request King George to Free Ireland Negroes Request King George to Free Ireland New York, Aug. 1.—Freedom for Ireland, emancipation for Egypt and India and prevention of future race wars by the use of his influence were asked of King George of England in cablegrams sent to Buckingham palace tonight by the second annual international convention of the United Negro Improvement Association. Another cablegram was sent to Eamonn de Valera, "president of the Irish republic," pledging the organization's assistance in securing freedom for Ireland. President Harding was advised by a telegram that he had the best wishes of the Negro race, which pledged its full support to him and the government in the cause of justice. Negro Athlete Closes Commendable College Career As Broad Jumper Cambridge, Mass., July 25.—Edward O. Courdin, Harvard's Negro athlete, who set a new world's broad jump record of 25 feet, 3 inches last Saturday, has closed his college athletic career with an all-round record of track and field proficiency surpassing that of any man who ever wore the crimson. His ability is shown in a list of the marks he has made in actual competition: Running hop, step and jump, 45 feet, 3 inches. Javelin throw, 140 feet. Discuss throw, 140 feet. Ku Klux Police Force to Be Discharged Oklahoma City, Okla., July 20.—Declaring that he had information that 50 per cent of the members of the Oklahoma City police department belonged to the Ku Klux Klan, Mayor John C. Walton directed Chief Glitsch to investigate and to discharge every policeman who does not immediately resign from the Klan. The mayor stated this information came from private detectives employed to investigate "this invisible empire."

An accompanying letter from Secretady Hughes said a "moral obligation" rested on the United States to make this loan. Texas Ku Klux Against Hooch and Rum Hounds Texas Ku Klux Against Hooch and Rum Hounds Conroe, Texas, Aug. 4.—Two hundred white robed members of the Ku Klux Klan, led by a horseman carrying the Stars and Stripes and another bearing the fiery cross of the order, paraded here late Wednesday night. The impressive ceremony was given an atmosphere of warning by banners declaring that gambling and bootlegging must stop and that "we want no mulatto children." MOSAIC TEMP LARS CONVENE Little Rock, Ark., July 25.—The quadrennial convention of the Mosaic Templars of America, founded by the late John E. Bush, and known as the "Million Dollar Fraternity," closed here Friday. More than 2,500 delegates were present, and 10,000 visitors were attracted by the meeting. The report of Chester E. Bush, son of the founder of the organization, and successor to his father as National Grand Scribe and Secretary, disclosed a growth almost parallel in the history of fraternities in this country. Bush's report showed the assets of the organization to be $1,032,981.59, while the liabilities amount to $46,550.00. More than 70,000 members have been taken in within four years. Because of conditions In the South the officials of the organization asked the National Grand Lodge for authority to move the headquarters and sell the properties of the order in Little Rock. Led by "Peach" Jordan, State Grand Master of Arkansas, the delegates granted the authority asked for by unanimous vote. No steps will be taken towards removal at present, but the officials are now in position to protect the monies and properties of a vast concern built up by colored people. The reports of the National Attorney General, Scipio A. Jones; of the National Medical Director, Dr. J. G. Thornton; of A. E. Bush, Monument Secretary, and of J. H. McConico, National Auditor, were all accepted by the delegates without much debate. Some idea of the growth of the insurance idea among colored people was had in the law passed authorizing C. E. Bush to issue policies up to and including $1,000. Chicago was favored by the committee of management for the convention of 1925. Collected $2,248 for Tulsa Riot Victims The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that the receipts to date of its fund for the relief and legal defense of the Tulsa riot victims amounted to $2,248.87. In connection with the announcement that funds were being distributed through a local committee of the association in conjunction with the recognized Tulsa Colored Citizens Committee, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People issued a warning to the public that frauds were being committed by people traveling over the country and soliciting funds, alleging that they were working for the relief of the Tulsa riot victims. PENSIONS FOR FORTY-FIVE NE GROES GRANTED Nashville, Tenn., July 26.—The Tennessee pension board, now in session here, has granted pensions of $10 a month to forty-seven Negroes who saw service as cooks or body servants in the Confederate army. Eighty-five applications for pensions were filed by others. NO 43 NEGRO STATE LIBRARIAN FOR WEST VIRGINIA Charleston, W. Va., July 28.—The judges of the Supreme Court here have entered a vacation order appointing J. A. Jackson, Negro, as state librarian, in succession to Gen. Benjamin H. Oxley, whose term of four years expired on July 1. Librarian Jackson has been connected with the court for many years, also serving as assistant librarian, and the judges personally knew his fitness for the position. He gave bond immediately and entered upon his duties. ENTHUSIASTIC SMOKER BY THE DENVER COLORED CIVIC ASSOCIATION. On last Wednesday evening, after the transaction of the regular business of the Denver Colored Civic Association, the meeting was turned over to the entertainment committee which had arranged for the regular BIG MID-SUMMER SMOKER and program. Mr. W. R. Herndon, chairman of the committee, presided, and introduced the speakers who participated. Mr. Herndon was at his best and started the flood of oratory with a most eloquent and timely speech. Mr. C. W. Buford, the veteran race leader of Denver, was introduced and read the oration by Mr. Horace N. Hawkins, Jr., who choose for his subject "A SQUARE DEAL FOR THE NEGRO." Mr. Hawkins was awarded first prize for this able oration in a contest, and the members who were present and heard it read were highly pleased. The great effort of the evening was made by Rev. Father D. E. Johnson, D. D., of Springfield, Ill., who is visiting friends in Denver, where he formerly lived. Father Johnson made a marked impression upon the association by his eloquent and impressive speech. Speeches were made by Messrs. J. C. Cooper, C. W. Buford, I. C. McKenzie, T. K. Price, C. S. Cary, T. S. Rector, Thos Campbell, Wm. Russ and others. A large attendance of the members were present, and enjoyed the excellent luncheon prepared by Mr. Russ, chairman of the luncheon committee. AMEN! EDUCATE THE PREACHERS New York City, N. Y.—July 30.—Preachers who derive more pleasure and enjoyment from their sermons than do their congregations, were discussed last Sunday by Rev. Dr Henry Sloane Coffin, pastor of the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church at the second session of the midsummer conference for ministers in the Union Theological Seminary. Dr. Coffin said that "the greatest curse of the country today is uniforming preachers" and he proposed remedies for ministers who teach congregations, nothing. "People are staying away from church because they learn nothing," he said. They hear things that they already know. Many congregations are hored because they can predict beforehand what the minister is going to say. "With the same minister and the same congregation 40 Sundays in the year it is necessary for the minister to be informative and interesting. Many ministers and many pastors preach from hand to mouth and do not know on Monday what they are going to say the following Sunday. The weakest point is that preachers do not go deep enough. The main function of the pulpit is to teach facts. Some sermons are predigested food." at Joslin's 16TH & CURTIS Planning New Frocks Is a Joy With Such Splendid Materials As These to Choose From —Rich, heavy and lustrous; 40 inches wide; black, navy blue and brown; yd..$3.50 Crepe de Chine Good grade, all silk, 40 inches wide; splendid variety of colors; yard ..... $1.98 Sport Poplins 40 inches wide; rose, Coppenhagen blue, Electra, black, navy blue, brown and tan; yard ..... $2.49 Silk and Wool Poplin 40 inches wide; rose, seal brown, gray, tan and Electra; yard ..... $2.98 First Floor, Joslin's New Japanese A With Fancy Very colorful, very cheerful, a chosen and well blended.

They are home-consumption delicacies, like the honey banana, the emerald-gem muskmelon and the fall pippin apple—too good for the ordinary market and sure to lose their original flavor in passing through the hands of the middleman.

This king of signboards was erected in 1655, and it is said to have cost over £1,000.

To crush the increasing love of pleasure the Connecticut law of 1641 sternly decreed that only the solitary smoke should be permitted.

Lovera' Quarrela Not Trifles. It has been said that lovers' quarrels are but the renewal of love. There was never a falser word. Every quarrel is a blot on a fair page.

Trial by a deal still exists in some parts of Japan. If a theft takes place in a household, all the servants are required to write a certain word with the same brush.

The process of polishing is done after six months, during which period the balls are kept in special dark drying chambers. When Men Fought in Steel.

Names Traced to Chinese Many names of cities, mountains and rivers in the West, and along the Pacific coast, which have generally been regarded as Indian names, are really of Chinese origin, according to a writer in the New York Herald. Even the names of the state of Utah and Nevada are of Chinese origin, he says. "Pe" or "Pie" means north in Chinese; therefore the Pleate Indians were merely the North Ute Indians. Hard Question to Answer. Bobbie was fond of big words, and never let a chance slip by of using one. He did not, however, always get them in the right place. He was sick abed with an attack of measles. The doctor calling one day, took up a hand mirror and showed Bobbie how he looked. Bobbie gazed at his mottled face disgusted in the mirror, and then looking up to the doctor, asked, "When do you think I will be back to civilization?" Easy to Check Sneeze As many know, sneezing may be averted by pressing firmly upon the upper lip with the fingers. The "why" of this is that by so doing we deaden the impression made up a certain branch of the "fifth nerve," sneezing being a reflex action excited by some slight impression made upon that nerve. Proof of this is seen in the fact that sneezing never takes place when the nerve mentioned is paralyzed, even though the sense of smell be fully retained. She Had Simple Tastes A little girl, left in a room with a glass of tall daffodils, was discovered trying to communicate with the queen of the fairies. She was calling down the bell of one flower and listening at the other, a small dimpled hand, with a crease for the wrist, firmly grasping either green stalk. "Please send a cake and a big doll," she said, "to my house, and a new daddy and a taxi so's I can go and spend my pennies." Capital's Famous Avenue. For some years after Washington became the national capital, Pennsylvania avenue was an unkempt dirt roadway and at times wellnigh impassable, but when Thomas Jefferson became President he objected to the untidy road and the street was graded and put in fine condition at a cost of $14,000, for the liture of which Jefferson was bused.

THE COLORADO STATESMAN is living in Indianapolis to bring out such a matter in the broader sense of the "g" it is proposed, as we understand it, to Indianapolis. Nothing whatever is said to trade or common schools, so we presume has been advanced to justify segregation among young men and women are looking to water ambitions. The crisis views the fact that the public school is that it should be the land. To separate children usually tired. So far then as possible, we she public schools open to all citizens, white, color, native and foreign. Of the land, however, and in some cases could be impossible to carry on schoolers from this and must, if it will keep other bonds of social sympathy to take training, does it has been found possible while men have common high schools. Above all others in the United States, real national service. If it is impossible work together at common knowledge, then it is impossible for white and colored States and for different races to do if the possibility of democracy lies in the high schools of Indianapolis." THE AUGUST number of the Crises answers in rather superb fashion a query put to it, as to the advisability of establishing separate schools in certain cities. It is an age old question and has been discussed pro and con for a generation. THE COLORADO STATESMAN is not aware of the conditions existing in Indianapolis to bring out such a query, so we can only consider the matter in the broader sense of the "greatest good to the greatest number." It is proposed, as we understand it, to establish separate high schools in Indianapolis. Nothing whatever is said about separation of the races in the grade or common schools, so we presume that some higher order of reasoning has been advanced to justify segregation in the schools just at the period when young men and women are looking upon the world with larger hope and greater ambitions. The crisis views the matter thusly: "The theory of the public school is that it should be the foundation of the democracy of the land. To separate children usually means their virtual separation through life. This means misunderstanding, friction, group, class and racial hatred. So far then as possible, we should strive in every way to keep the public schools open to all citizens, white and black, Jew and Gentile, rich and poor, native and foreign. "In some parts of the land, however, and in some cases, racial feeling is so strong that it would be impossible to carry on schools of this sort. But the community suffers from this and must, if it will keep down riot and race hatred, substitute other bonds of social sympathy to take the place of public school common training. "In a few cities it has been found possible while maintaining separate graded schools to have common high schools. "In these cities, above all others in the United States, there is the greatest opportunity for real national service. If it is impossible for children of high school age to work together at common knowledge and human training for four years, then it is impossible for white and colored people to live together in the United States and for different races to live together in the world. The test of the possibility of democracy lies in a certain very real sense in the mixed high schools of Indianapolis." THE DYER ANTI-LYNCHING BILL. BAL Association for the Advancement of Civil Rights League, the various women organizations are well within their rights in filing and the Congress that the Negroes put into law of the Dyer bill or some other federal offense. The spirit of the country and crimes of violence by body in their hands are multiplying. Millions disgust common to almost every man, during failures of the last Democratic administration at Chicago in 1920 inserted a plea to our liking. President Harding, in an advanced and commendable position, felt that a better day was at hand. He capably on the part of many of those who anger a dupe. He will not continue to evidence of good faith and reliability must be the supreme hour of opportunity of lynching is not a racial question. I believe Negro calling for help today and want for mercy tomorrow. Is confessedly weak, puerile and insecure enforcement than through irresponsibility in cover of darkness. The issue is perhaps to be supreme in all parts of this land that will be more serious than any of the Republican party is not as yet perfect, and for that reason we feel more. Let there be no further delay, no further placed upon the federal statute body of the lynching and mob evil, as a result of crimes of violence by lawless as THE NATIONAL Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Equal Rights League, the various women's federations and kindred organizations are well within their rights in vigorously reminding President Harding and the Congress that the Negro of the country expects the enactment into law of the Dyer bill or some similar measure designed to make lynching a federal offense. The spirit of lawlessness is growing throughout the country and crimes of violence by bodies of men who presume to take the law in their hands are multiplying. Millions of Negro voters shared the general disgust common to almost every man and women of this nation over the glaring failures of the last Democratic administration. Bringing the question directly home, our group never fared so badly in the entire history of the nation as during the Wilson regime. We solidly approached the Republican party in its national and state deliberations, asking for relief. The national convention at Chicago in 1920 inserted a plank on the subject of lynching exactly to our liking. President Harding, in his first message to Congress, took an advanced and commendable position on the subject. Our hopes arose; we felt that a better day was at hand. But for some reason there is a notable apathy on the part of many of those who promised much. The Negro is no longer a dupe. He will not continue to follow an uncertain lead. Tangible evidence of good faith and reliability must be given by party and men. The present is the supreme hour of opportunity for the Republican party. The subject of lynching is not a racial question. It is a national problem. It may be the Negro calling for help today and then it may be the white man pleading for mercy tomorrow. A government is confessedly weak, puerile and inefficient that has no surer means of law enforcement than through irresponsible bands of masked regulators operating in cover of darkness. The issue is plain. Either governmental authority must be supreme in all parts of this land, or a reign of lawlessness may ensue that will be more serious than any one now imagines. Unfortunately the Republican party is not as yet perfect. It is the party of our choice, it is true, and for that reason we feel more freely the right to offer suggestions. Let there be no further delay, no further offering of excuses. Let there be placed upon the federal statute books an expression of national condemnation of the lynching and mob evil, as the only means of reducing the number of crimes of violence by lawless assemblages. EDWARD O. GOURDIN backs the press of the country has given young Negro athlete by the name of a who is a student at Harvard.

While we high econiums and fulsome praise accite press, still it is but a repetition of the Negro is given an untrummeted is worthily adding to the laurels of H when we note the high class Negro per FOR SOME weeks the press of the country has given much space to the prowess of a young Negro athlete by the name of Gourdin, from Jacksonville, Fla., who is a student at Harvard. At a recent track meet held at Cambridge, participated in by Yale, Harvard, Oxford and Cambridge, Edward Gourdin held aloft the crimson colors of Harvard by the greatest record of track and field proficiency ever given by a Harvard student. Aside from winning the 100 yard dash and 200 yard dash in record time, he set a new mark in the running broad jump contest that competent critics say will probably stand as a world's record for all time. While we are naturally very proud to note the high econiums and fulsome praise accorded a member of the race by the white press, still it is but a repetition of achievements in any given line whenever the Negro is given an untrammed opportunity to show his worth. Gourdin is worthily adding to the laurels of Drew, Butler, Flippin and others. And when we note the high class Negro performers on the ball field and the smashing invasion of Harry Wills and others in the realms of pugilism, the conundon 'is inevitable that the white man draws the color line as the surest means of self preservation. A true spirit of sportsmanship abdicates in favor of color prejudice. Thank heavens the great educational institutions of the world arise to higher grounds. CHEYENNE, WYO. NEWS CHEYENNE, WYO. NEWS ANUMBER of progressive F. & A. Masons from this city are in Denver to attend the Grand Lodge. The meeting is one of vast interest to the local fraternity and to members of the jurisdiction.

Masters who have ruled by love and guarded well the foundation of Free Masonry will receive the highest reward. King Solomon's Smith. And it came to pass when Solomon, the son of David, had finished the temple of Jerusalem, that he called unto him the chief architects, the head artificers, and cunning workers in silver and gold, and in wood, and in ivory, and in stone—yea, all who had aided in rearing the Temple of the Lord; and he said unto them: "Sit ye down at my table; I have prepared a feast for all my chief workers and cunning artificers; stretch forth your hands, therefore, and eat, and drink, and be merry. Is not the laborer worthy of his nire? Is not the skilled artificer deserving of honor? Muzzle not the ox that treadeth out the corn." And when the chief workers were seated and the fatness of the land and the wine and the oil thereof were set upon the table, there came one who knocked loudly at the door and forced himself even into the festal chamber, Then Solomon the King was wroth, and said, "Who and what manner of man are thou?" And he answered and said, "When men wish to honor me they call me Son of the Forge, but when they desire to mock me, they call me Black Smith; and seeing that the toll of working in the fire covers me with sweat and smut, the latter name, O King, is not napt, and in truth, the servant desires no better." "But," said Solomon, "why come you thus rudely and unbidden to the feast, where none, save the chief of the workman of the Temple are invited?" "Please ye, my Lord, I came rudely," replied the man, "because thy servant obliged me to force my way, but I came not unbidden. Was it not proclaimed that the chief workmen of the Temple were invited to dine with the King of Israel?" Then he who carved the cherubim said: "This fellow is not sculptor." And he who raised the walls said, "He is not a cutter of stone." And he who made the roof cried out, "He is not cunning in cedar wood; neither knoweth he the mystery of uniting pieces of strange timber together." Then said Solomon, "What hast thou to say, Son of the Forge, why I should not order you plucked by the beard, scourged with a scourge, and stoned to death with stones?" And when the Son of the Forge heard this he was in no sort dismayed, but advancing to the table snatched me and swallowed a cup of wine, and said, "O King, live forever. The chief men of the workers in wood and gold and stone have said I am not one of them, and they said truly. I am their superior, and they are all my servants." And he turned him round and said to the chief of the carvers in stone, "Who made the tools with which you carve?" And he said, "The Smith." And he said to the chief of the masons, "Who made the chisels with which the stone of the Temple were squared?" And he answered, "The Smith." And he said to the chief of the workers in wood, "Who made the tools with which you hewed the trees of Lebanon and formed them into pillars and roof of the Temple?" And he answered, "The Smith." Then he said to the artificer in gold and in ivory, "Who makes the instruments by which you work beautiful things for my Lord, the King?" And he said, "The Smith." "Enough, enough, good fellow," said Solomon, "thou hast proved that I invited thee, and that thou are all men's father in art. Go wash the smut of the forge from thy face and come and sit at my right hand. The chiefs of my workers are but men; thou art more." Mr. Walter Davis, Robt. Johnson, George Randall, Al Palmer, Wm.

Smart society is on its tip- toes just now and many rare and un usual functions are being eagerly looked forward to, ‘The tourist season is most invariably a signal for just such activities as are now on, but an added zest Is ‘given by the numerous conventions and lodge activities being held in Denver this summer. First of these was the Cotorndo Bap- tist Association that held some very in- teresting sessions during the middle of July. Then came the annual meeting of the K, of P.

COMING EVENTS. Annual Monte Vista Stampede at Monte Vista, Aug. 3, 4, 5. Morgan County Fair, Fort Morgan, Aug. 24-26, W. J. Ott, secretary. Framton Russell was cranking his machine at Loveland when it "kicked" and he was hurled ten feet and through the window of a barber shop. His right arm was broken. Evening programs will be given at the Western Slope fair at Montrose this year for the first time in the association's history. There will be magnificent fireworks demonstrations and also drills by the boys' and girls' clubs, a Roman race with spotlight and other special features. During a terrific thunder storm, the din of which drowned out the sound of their activities, an unknown number of bandits entered the Garfield County State bank at Grand Valley, blew the safe and vault doors to debris with dynamite, and escaped with approximately $20,000 worth of securities and cash. Dry land wheat that has just been threshed on the C. A. Jeffries farm ran forty-five bushels, machine measure, to the acre, and weighed out sixty-two pounds to the bushel, which is almost a record for dry land wheat in Larimer county. The Showalter wheat in the same district averaged forty bushels to the acre. Six men were killed and six injured at the Schuyler-Doyle Oil Shale Company's plant, six miles north of Grand Valley, when the cable of a tram line down the mountainside slipped from its swivel and let the car crash downward 2,000 feet. The car literally was smashed to pieces when it jumped the track and hurtled over boulders. After being tossed about in the waters of the Platte river within the limits of Denver since the morning of June 18, when he was drowned while going to the rescue of his brother, who had been caught in the swollen flood waters at that time, the body of Charles Bryont, Jr., S-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bryant, was recovered from the river in a badly decomposed condition. Mrs. Amelia Cachines, 35, wife of Tony Cachines, a farmer northeast of Broomfield, was killed when a horse hitched to a buggy ran away and she was thrown out, her neck being broken. She was the mother of five children. She and her husband were returning from Lafayette and she had stepped out of the buggy to look in his rural post box for mail when the horse became frightened and ran. Bronco busting, horse racing and baseball games will be the daily features of the annual fair of the Deer Trail Fair Association Aug. 18, 19 and 20. The ball games will be between the Deer Trail team and those of Strasburg, Byers and Hugo; and a bucking mule, mule race and a bucking steer will be specialties during the fair. The general exhibit of agricultural products, cattle, hogs, sheep and horses promises to be the best ever shown at the fair. At least 3,500 cars will be required to move the wheat crop in that section of northeastern Colorado served by the Burlington railroad, according to a report made to the State Public Utilities Commission by William Reid, one of its inspectors, after a trip through Logan and northeastern Weld counties. The wheat crop, Reid reports, is one of the best ever harvested in this section of the state. The commission will make every effort to assist the farmers in obtaining cars and getting their crops to market. A new altitude record for the Pike's Peak region was made by Lieut. V. J. Melroy and Corporal R. F. Allen, army aviators, when they flew over Pike's Peak at an altitude of 17,000 feet. This is more than 1,000 feet higher than the altitude attained several days ago by E. E. Bowers, who reached a height of slightly less than 16,000 feet, when he flew over the peak. Colorado's wheat crop for 1921 will exceed by 7,000,000 bushels any previous year's production, according to estimates by the State Immigration Department from reports by county assessors. With this increase, it is expected that Colorado will step from twelfth position of last year to sixth or seventh place among the leading wheat producing states of the country. Guy McMurray, 11 years old, with his right arm severed at the elbow and a deep cut in his right leg and with blood pouring from the wounds, extricated himself from a moving machine sickle and crawled and walked 100 yards to his home where his mother gave him first aid and summoned a doctor. He was removed to a Greeley hospital. Despite the injuries, physicians say he will live. Ned Hayden of Fraser was killed and his wife severely burned when lightning struck a barn just as they entered it, one and one-half miles from Fraser. Hayden and his wife had gone in their car for a picnic in the mountains when a storm overtook them. Near them was an abandoned stable, and with the rain coming down in torrents, they hurried to this stable for shelter. Just as Hayden opened the door the building was struck by lightning. Every particle of clothing was torn from his body and death was instantaneous. CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS According to plans of the directors of the San Luis valley drainage district No. 1 work of laying tile in the covered drains will soon be resumed. In this district, which lies just south of La Jara, is some 10,000 acres of land which was once very productive, but which became seeped through the irrigation of the higher surrounding land. The open drainage canal, about eleven miles in length, was completed last year and several of the covered lateral drains were put in. Then the work was stopped until more funds were available. Now arrangements are being completed for carrying on the work. The Colorado Fuel & Iron Company is letting a contract to the C. S. Lumble Construction Company of Pueblo for the building of fifty houses, which are to be sold at cost and on easy payments to employés of the company who lost their homes in the flood. The total sum to be expended will be close to $140,000, and the houses will be of three, four, five and six rooms, all thoroughly modern. They will be built near the old C. F. & I. hospital, work to begin at once. Hereafter Montrose firemen will not be in danger of being run over by autoists following them to a fire. The City Council has passed an ordinance forbidding any automobile to be within 200 feet of fire apparatus going to a fire. Complaint has been filed frequently with the council that whenever the companies turn out they are followed by a stream of autos racing after them, and when the men spring to make a coupling they are in danger of being run down. Two bandits with ropes let a third down the side of a Pullman car on Denver & Rio Grande train No. 2 between Grand Valley and Rifle, and he cut the screens in the windows and robbed three hammocks in the berths. One woman reported the loss of $200 in travelers' checks and $40 in cash, and two other passengers reported losses, but the amount was not made public. So far as is known only the three hammocks were robbed. Despite the fact that he drove his closed automobile off the side of a bridge between Colorado Springs and Manitou, pinning himself in the wreckage on his head, H. C. Reynolds of Oklahoma City, Okla., escaped injury. The machine landed upside down in a creek bed. Campers in the vicinity witnessed the accident and rushed to the scene and extricated Reynolds from the wreckage. The body of Daniel Cook, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Cook, will be brought to Loveland from France for burial early in August, according to word received from the War Department. He was wounded in action in France and died of his wounds in a hospital. The American Legion will have charge of the funeral and give the body a military burial. Announcement has been made that the state firemen's meeting to be held in Loveland, September 5, 6, 7 and 8, will be opened each day by prayer. A Catholic priest will pronounce the invocation on the first day and ministers of different Protestant denominations will follow on succeeding days. C. S. Mills of Las Animas, Colo., suffered a possibly fractured skull and his son, Leo Mills, is suffering from internal injuries as the result of a collision between their automobile and another machine on a curve near Kellog, Idaho. The Mills car left the road and rolled down a 100-foot embankment. An increase in attendance is reported by the university summer school at Boulder. The total for the second term is 1,246 as against 874 a year ago. During the first term the registration was 1,951 compared with 1,307 in 1920. The total for the summer is 3,197 as against 2,181 in 1920. Richard Hart, 22 years old, son of a prominent mining man of Red Cliff, was killed and five others narrowly escaped death when an automobile in which the party was returning to Red Cliff from Leadville, plunged down a thirty-foot embankment four miles west of Tennessee pass. According to the coroner's jury, faulty construction of the cable line was responsible for the Grand Valley accident when seven men were killed. The breaking of a three-eighths-inch steel cable which was lowering the car was given in a report to the coroner as the cause of the accident. At the closing session of the annual convention of the Colorado Bar Association, held at Colorado Springs, the following officers were elected: Geo. C. Manly of Denver, president; R. S. Gast of Pueblo, vice president; Robert G. Bosworth of Denver, secretary and treasurer. More than 3,000 cars will be needed to handle the potato crop of the western slope, according to estimates made by railroad freight officials, who have decided to give 750 cars for the spuds at Montrose, 850 for Olathe, 750 for Delta and 1,000 for other points. After having elected new officers, heard addresses on various topics and enjoyed a royal banquet and dance at Trimble Springs, the second annual convention of group four, Colorado Bankers' Association, adjourned. Durango was chosen as the convention city for next year's gathering. Clyde Potter, Durango, was elected president of the group, George F. Fritz, Durango, secretary, and Keith S. Rucker, Durango, member nominating committee. Next year's convention will be held in August, the date to be fixed by the officers. (© 1920 Western Newspaper Union.)

Junket is so easy to prepare and so easily digested that it makes an ideal summer food. Coffee Junket. To a pint and a half of milk warmed to new milk temperature add a junket tablet dissolved in a teaketable of Coffee Junket. To a pint and a half of milk warmed to new milk temperature add a junket tablet dissolved in a tablespoonful of coffee infusion, add a cupful of coffee and pour into sherbet cups stirring well to mix with the junket, sweeten to taste and let stand in a warm room to become firm, then chill. On a hot day there is nothing more restful than a meal out of doors. If it cannot be taken in the woods or by a stream, the grounds at home or even the porch will be a good substitute. A screened in porch, if near the kitchen, makes an ideal dining room for summer weather. Salmon Salad. To a can of salmon add one cupful of cucumber pickles finely chopped, one and one-half cupfuls of oyster crackers, crushed fine, mix with salad dressing and serve on lettuce. Custards of various kinds and flavors make most wholesome desserts. A cup custard is easy to prepare and when chilled is especially dainty. Slightly beat two eggs to a plint of milk, add sugar and flavoring and pour into the custard cups. Set the cups in a pan of hot water and steam until the custards seem firm to the center. Remove and set on ice when cool to chill. Jellies and gelatines are delicious combinations with fruit and nuts, served with whipped cream. Lemon jelly served with a chocolate blanc mange is a combination not very common, but very good. Such desserts may be prepared the evening before while dinner is in preparation or early in the morning. A light dessert should follow a heavy dinner, especially during the hot weather. Date and Orange Salad.—Peel and carefully remove oranges into sections, mix with quartered well washed dates, adding a little diced pineapple. Serve on lettuce with any good dressing mixed with whipped cream. In America we understand by equality, not that we are all equals in learning, in intellect, and so forth, but that we are all equals in the power to be good and honorable and generous.—Senator Dolliver. HELPFUL HINTS—TASTY FOODS Bits of butter left on the bread and butter plates should be saved for seasoning. A tablespoonful or two of butter from each meal will season a dish of vegetables. Other fats may be as wholesome and cheaper, but but its own. tablespoonful or two of butter from each meal will season a dish of vegetables. Other fats may be as wholesome and cheaper, but butter has a flavor all its own. Pits of left over pastry may be rolled out for tarts or sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon and baked; they make nice little cakes to serve with tea. Nut Cutlets.—Have ready half a cupful of chopped nuts, using Brazil nuts, walnuts and almonds; add to them a cupful of breadcrumbs and a cupful of mashed potatoes, with a little chopped onion and parsley; beat two eggs, mix with the other ingredients, add salt and pepper and form into balls or cakes; dip in beaten egg and crumbs and fry a golden brown. Fruit Juice Pie.—Take two and one-half tablespoonfuls of cornstarch, add one-fourth cupful of sugar, one cupful of any strained juice, a teaspoonful of butter, a pinch of salt and the yolks of two eggs. Cook all together, adding the egg yolk at the last. Cover with a meringue, using the whites of the eggs, and pour into a baked crust. Chicken Custard.—A good dish for an invalid and one that is dainty too! Take one and one-half cupfuls of bread crumbs from the center of the loaf, add to them two tablespoonfuls of finely chopped chicken breast. Beat the yolks of two eggs until well mixed, add to them a dash of celery salt, a pinch of salt, and a cupful of milk. Pour into a custard cup, set cup in hot water and bake until the custard is set. Serve hot. Filled Sponge Cake.—Scoop the center from a deep sponge cake and fill with mashed sweetened berries and cover with sweetened whipped cream. Serve at once. The top may be put back, covering the berries, if desired. Brooms should be dipped in hot suds once a week, rinsed and dried, then hung, as standing on the straw spoils the broom.

FOREIGN Work will be started this autumn on buildings for St. Luke's International hospital at Tokio, established and for many years maintained by the Protestant Episcopal church of the United States. Forcing his employer's safe and finding only about $20 worth of crowns, Rudolph Twrdlk hanged himself at Vienna, leaving a note that the disappointment after so hard a job was more than he could stand. In a collision between a passenger and a freight train near Nikolsk, sixteen persons were killed and eighteen injured, among them a few Japanese. The collision was said to have been caused by bands of partisans who have been engaged in sporadic hostilities in that part of Russia. Australia wants 100,000 immigrants within a year, according to the new immigration department of the commonwealth government. Immigrants "of the right sort" are desired and an organization is to be set up to provide employment for them. Many from the British Isles are expected. The allies have warned Greece that an advance on Constantinople by her troops will not be tolerated, it was authoritatively stated today. No ground exists, however, it is added, for believing Greece contemplates such advance, which would bring her into conflict with the allied army of occupation. The discovery of a process of smelting magnetic sand whereby Japan will be rendered independent of outside sources for its iron supply, and will become an extensive producer, has just been announced by Goro Matsukata and Dr. Asobu Natio. The process, which has been thoroughly tested, permits the production of pig iron for twenty-five yen (normally about $12.50) a ton. GENERAL Robert Doll of Lancaster, Wis., was seriously hurt and probably will be permanently blind as the result of the explosion of an automobile tire. Three men were killed and several seriously injured when a drying machine burst in the plant of the Standard Silk Dyeing Company at Patterson, N. J. Coffee drinking has increased 21 percent, or 100 cups a year for each person in the United States, since prohibition, according to figures made public in New York by the National Coffee Roasters' Association. Drinkers of non-intoxicating liquor in Wisconsin must stand far enough away from the bar to be unable to place their foot on the rail or to set their glasses on the counter in order to keep from violating the law, according to an opinion of J. E. Messerschmidt, assistant attorney general. Lewis H. Harding, secretary of the Salt Lake Rotary Club, prominent in Masonic circles, and reported to be a distant relative of President Harding, was drowned while on a fishing trip at Jackson's lake, near Moran, Wyo., according to a telegram received by his business partner. Ripping open a small bag found sewn in a coat lining, federal investigators at Chicago said they found smuggled unset diamonds and jewelry valued at $70,000. The coat, they said, belonged to Hyman Finerman, a Los Angeles jeweler, who was arrested, charged with smuggling. Frank Soules, who murdered his chum, Harry A. Robinson, at Hastings, Mich., to gain possession of Robinson's automobile, entered the state penitentiary at Jackson to begin a life sentence for his crime, exactly one week after the killing, one of the most brutal in Barry county criminal records. The charges that Judge Lucien B. Wright of the District Court of Creek county accepted a bribe of $10,000 in connection with his decision for the Salle Atkins interests in the Tommy Atkins $2,000,000 oil lands controversy was dismissed twenty minutes after Justice Court convened at Sapulpa, Okla., for the third day of the hearing. Total resources of all state banks and private banking institutions under state control in the United States exceed by $9,000,000,000 the aggregate resources of all the national banks in the country, according to a compilation of figures made by R. N. Sim, secretary-treasurer of the National Association of Supervisors of State Banks. Samuel Hamilton, 35, former special policeman at Manitou, Colo., was killed instantly when he fell down a sixteen-foot shaft of the water pump pit in the Union Pacific railroad yards at Brighton. He was a steam engineer by trade and came to Brighton for employment. He is believed to have been seeking shelter when he fell down the pit. Fifteen federal warrants for the arrest of men said to have been associated with John W. Worthington in connection with mail robberies totaling more than $6,000,000, have been issued. News of the arrest in New York of Arthur M. Goldsmith, said to be a leutenant of Worthington, pleased federal officials who have been conducting the investigation that led to the apprehension of Worthington after he had been indicted. The New York Americans announced the signing of Earl Jamieson, a full blooded Indian pitcher on a semi-professional team. Jamieson is 20 years of age, and left-handed. His father, who was a Carlisle graduate, pitched for the Philadelphia Nationals in 1898 and 1899. Louis Judelovitz, the first man named in the government; slacker lists to be tried at New York by court-martial, was sentenced to serve one year in military prison and forfeit all pay and allowances from the date of induction, May, 1918 NEWS TO DATE IN PARAGRAPHS CAUGHT FROM THE NETWORK OF WIRES ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD.

WESTERN A concurrent resolution declaring that it is the sense of the Texas Legislature that the interests of the United States and Texas may be better served by official recognition of Mexico was adopted in the House at Austin, recently. Col. William R. Berger, founder of the University of New Mexico, and its secretary for twenty-five years, died at Belen, New Mexico, aged 74 years. He was a pioneer editor and attorney in the state and had held territorial positions and various offices in the G. A. R., and leading lodges of the state. Lieut. R. B. Levissee, an air mull pilot, narrowly escaped death at Concord, Calif., in making a forced landing after his engine went dead while he was 1,000 feet in the air. Owing to obstructions near the landing field his machine turned over on him and when he was extricated he said he was uninjured. In blowing the safe of the Charity State bank at Charity, Ill., the robbers used so much explosive that the safe was blown out through the rear of the building. The safe door was blown out through the front of the building, and the structure was set on fire, burning to the ground. Officials of the bank said there was no clew to the identity of the robbers, and that it was impossible to say how much they obtained, as everything in the building was destroyed. WASHINGTON Postmaster General Hays has announced appointment of Mrs. Mary K. McCarty as assistant superintendent of foreign mails. She is the second woman to be appointed to an executive position in the department, and entered the service in 1900 as a clerk. The steamship President, assigned by the government to the Postoffice Department, has inaugurated its twenty-four-hour service of runs to Quarantine to rush in the mails from inbound steamers. Postmaster General Hays and members of the congressional postoffice committees were aboard. The service is expected to eliminate nearly twenty-four hours' delay in getting foreign mails ashore. Investigation by the Senate Commerce Commission to determine whether there is "monopolistic manipulation" of petroleum products was proposed in a resolution introduced by Senator King, Democrat, Utah, who said depression in crude oil prices evidenced manipulation by large interests, while prices of gasoline and other products had not been reduced proportionately. Exports to Europe fell off nearly $1,500,000,000, while those to South America increased more than $30,000,000 during the fiscal year ending June 30, last, as compared with the previous year, Commerce Department figures disclosed. In June there was a sharp decline in both directions compared to the same, month a year ago. The year's exports to Europe were $3,408,000,000 against $4,863,000,000 in 1920; imports were $937,000,000 against $1,179,000,000. Legislation authorizing payments to Liberia under the $5,000,000 loan to that country previously arranged for, was asked by President Harding in a letter transmitted to the Senate. An accompanying letter from Secretary Hughes said a "moral obligation" rested on the United States to make this loan. Three Colorado young men are among the 208 candidates for appointment as second lieutenants in the army who qualified as a result of last April's examination, it was announced by the war department. Those commissioned from Colorado are: Harry Meyer, Denver, engineer corps; John Harry, Boulder, in field artillery, and Creswell G. Blakeney, Denver, in field artillery. Intoxicating beverages imported into the United States during the fiscal year were valued at more than $5,000,000, as compared with about $500,000 in the previous year, according to reports issued by the Commerce Department. Wine was the largest item in the list of intoxicants entering during the year, amounting to more than 2,000,000 gallons, as compared with 28,000 in 1920. Arming of postal employés since May 1, and the standing reward of $5,000 offered by the Postoffice Department to anyone bringing about the detention and arrest of a mail robber, has served to reduce the number of depredations against the service to a remarkable extent, according to a postal bulletin from Postmaster General Will H. Hays. The House passed a bill changing the period for doing annual assessment work on unpatented mineral claims from the calendar to the fiscal year. The measure now goes to the Senate. J.
