LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY HENRY LINCOLN JOHNSON CASE IS UP TO HARDING VOL. XXVIII. HENRY LINCOLN JO CASE I (Washington Eagle.) THE first outright refusal of the Senate of the United States to confirm a Harding appointee was given Tuesday in executive session. No roll call vote was taken on confirmation. Both Georgia senators, Democrats, opposed the confirmation on the ground that Johnson, Republican national committeeman for the state of Georgia, was "obnoxious and objectionable to them." Additional charges were made by Senator Tom Watson, bitter enemy of Johnson, as a result of charges back and forth between the two men for years. It is understood that the failure of confirmation of Johnson on Watson's account is likely to bring into the public eye the inter-racial relationship of Watson himself. President Harding may make a recess appointment of Johnson, but this is considered unlikely. Meanwhile much speculation arises as to the condition of Charles Mitchell's boom for register of the treasury, and the Costa affair in relationship to Halti. Reverting to Tom Watson of Georgia, the Baltimore Sun of Wednesday carried the following editorial: The Wild Man from Georgia. Them ore we see of senators like Williams of Mississippi, the less we think of senators like Watson of Georgia. One of them is an honor to the intellect, the courage and the honesty of the South, and the other is a reflection upon its good sense and political decency. Watson's latest exhibition in the Senate was simply an exhibition of puerile bad manners. He could not meet Senator Williams in debate, and he undertook to howl him down and prevent him from speaking. Such a vulgar and Hill Billy outbreak as that n the Senate on Monday is humiliating and intolerable, and demands senatorial discipline. Watson has got so used to "marching through Georgia" roughshod that he imagines he can do the same thing in Washington with impunity. Only a few weeks ago Representative Blanton of Texas narrowly escaped expulsion from the House because of an offense committed in the comparative privacy of the Congressional Record. Watson makes at every opportunity a public display of disregard for the dignity of the Senate, and lowers himself to the level of a Chicago alderman, if it is not insulting to the latter to make the comparison. The Senate should at least rebuke him sharply and make him understand that he must conform to its rules and observe, as far as it is possible for him, the decencies of ordinary legislative intercourse. The Wild Man of Borneo could scarcely behave more outrageously than the senator Georgia has let loose upon the country. He should either be made to behave himself or sent back to Georgia with the admonition, "Have him chained up—he is mad."—Baltimore Sun. Approves Dyer Bill Washington, D. C., Nov. 25.—Attorney General Daugherty is reported to have given as his opinion that the Dyer anti-lynching bill is constitutional and that it should be passed. Southern senators opposed to the bill had fought it on the ground that it interfered with state sovereignty and that it tended to lift from the several states their responsibility in the enforcement of criminal laws. Dyer, Republican, of Missouri, the sponsor of the bill, is reported to have said that probably no action on the bill would be taken at this special session of Congress, but it would be brought up again at the next general session. White Brute Attacks Colored Woman in Furniture Store Huntington, W. Va., Nov. 29.—Mrs. William Minor, a colored woman of Huntington, went into the Openhelm furniture store on Third avenue, between Ninth and Tenth streets, to buy some furniture on last Tuesday. She went up on the elevator to the third floor with some attache of the store. There was a man on the third floor waiting on a white lady who was also a customer. One M. Fisher was waiting on the white woman when Mrs. Minor came up. Fisher sent the white woman down with the man who brought the colored woman up. The elevator was retuned to the third floor. Then it was reported by Mrs. Minor that Fisher attacked her and attempted to criminally assault her. The buttons were torn from her coat and her petticoat and underclothes were torn in the struggle to defend her honor. This happened in open daylight in the heart of Huntington's business district. Fisher was later arrested and brought before Squire A. A. Shy for attempted rape and placed under bond. He waived a preliminary hearing and his case has gone to the grand jury for the next term of court. And the Advertiser and Herald-Dispatch did not run great big headlines about it, neither was there a mob formed to take the law into their own hands. Blind Musician Finds Flaw in "Bad" Money Blind Musician Finds Flaw in "Bad" Money McAlester, Okla., Nov. 25.—A blind musician did a bit of detective work here a few days ago. There has been a flood of "raised bills" throughout the town. The blind man was stopping at the rooming house of a woman named Lillian Simpkins when Silas Lincoln came in and asked for change for a $10 bill. Lillian passed the bill to the blind man. Proving that the sense of touch is more acute than that of sight, the man detected the counterfeit at once. It is said to be one of the cleverest ever made, and in only one particular was it weak—and that was in not having added the "s" in dollars, which is preceded by the word "ten." The scheme was made possible by tearing off the corners of $10 bills, which, while it did not invalidate the torn bills, furnished the necessary figures to place upon the $1 bills. State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House RELIABLE PEOPLE RADC THE JOURNAL DENVER ABLE PEOPLE'S PA ADO E JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3 1921 Here Is a Man Who Asks for Peace, Justice LTHOUGH I am a Caucasian, I have read with much satisfaction your publication, and know that you speak the truth when you complain of the gross insults heaped upon your Race. "For a great many years, or I might say since I have been able to think for myself, I have given the 'Race question' serious thought, and for the life of me I cannot understand why the white race should discriminate as they do against the Colored man. It has been a great source of satisfaction to me to point out a Colored man in my employ to some of my white representatives and I think that they could all improve their conditions were they to follow his example. Perhaps I might relate how and why I came by this Colored man. "About a year and a half ago, when I was manager for a large New York brokerage house, this fellow answered an ad for salesmen, and although nothing was mentioned as to color, this gentleman responded in person. At that time he was employed in one of the New York hotels as an elevator operator, which, you will admit, is a long way from selling stocks and bonds. However, he thought that he could 'make good,' and I gave him his chance. In the course of a couple of weeks he proved to me that a man is a man, irrespective of color or race, by bringing into the house some very desirable business. Within a couple of months of his connections with me, he was earning on an average of about $100 per week. Besides this, he has other qualities that endear him to me and the corporation that I now head, namely, his extreme honesty. He has handled thousands of dollars, yet in negotiable Uncle Sam currency, and I have yet to find his accounts anything but 100 per cent correct, and I might add further that up to the present time he has not made any financial errors, which is more than I can say for some white men that I have employed. "It is perhaps time that the white race awoke to the fact that the Colored man is not a fool, and if given half a chance, in the majority of cases, will without doubt 'make good.' "Wishing your paper all the success in the world in the task of having the qualities of the black man appreciated by his white brothers, and assuring you that a man is a man with us, as long as he conducts himself as such, I beg to remain, Yours for equality, "F. SPENCER, "President Frederick Spencer & Co., Inc., 185 Market street, Newark, N. J."—Chicago Defender. Black Veterans Honored l to be made, was it having is pre-scheme off the while it is, for place Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 29.—Acting as an escort for the Unknown dead, just arrived from France, Lieut. N. E. Skipp Post No. 42, Veterans of Foreign Wars, were assigned the place of honor at the head of the column. One white ex-service man who objected to marching behind colored veterans, was told to fall out. ORIGINAL IN RIGINAL IN Mrs. Lelia Walker Wilson to Be the Guest of Liberia Owner of Villa Lewaro Sails for France Mrs. Lelia Walker Wilson to Be the Guest of Liberia Owner of Villa Lewaro Sails for France Booked among the passengers of the Paris, palatial liner which sailed from New York on Friday, Nov. 25, was no more distinguished person that Mrs. Leia Walker Wilson, only daughter of the late Madame C. J. Walker, owner and resident of beautiful Villa Lewaro at exclusive Irvington, N. Y., who sailed for Havre, France. From there she will go for a time to Paris in interest of business for the Madam C. J. Walker Mfg. Co. of which she is the president and owner. After a sojourn in the French metropolis Mrs. Wilson will proceed to Africa by way of Spain and Portugal, landing at Monrovia, the capital of Liberia. While in that country she will be the special guest of the President, the Honorable C. D. B. King, and will conduct a business survey and thoroughly investigate the possibilities of further extending the business of the Madam Walker Mfg. Co. in that and other countries of Africa. Mrs. Wilson is a competent business woman and doubtless she will tell the public upon her return of her experiences and of the commercial opportunities in the countries that she will visit. It is gratifying to note that this head of the leading and long established business firm of the Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company is about to launch out in larger enterprises by traveling to the countries of the Eastern Hemisphere. We have always contended that if our business must be recognized as others, we must act along all lines that cater to bigger and broader business activity, and nothing can surpass the traveling experience of business characters, who by not hesitating to spend money and time in acquiring knowledge for the successful conducting of their business, will reach a high standard of efficiency and create an attractiveness alike other firms. THE COLORADO STATESMAN extends best wishes for a successful trip and a safe return to our esteemed business head, Mrs. Lelia Walker Wilson. [Editor.] Atlanta University Placed in Group One Atlanta, Ga.—Atlanta University has received notice that it has been placed in Group 1 of Negro colleges by the American Medical Association, along with Howard, Fisk and Lincoln. Hereafter graduates of Atlanta University may enter any reputable medical school in the United States, provided they have taken in their college work those subjects which are the necessary prerequisite to a medical course. Professor Desires Racial Co-operation New York, Nov. 21.—Last week Prof. Paul J. Sachs of the Fogg Art Museum of Harvard University, and treasurer of the Cambridge Urban League had a notable gathering of professors of Harvard University, deans of colleges and their wives together with many leading citizens of Boston at his home, "Shady Hill," to discuss "Racial Co-operation," and to learn at first hand what is being done throughout the country by leading social service movements to establish justice for all and to secure larger opportunity for the Negro. The principal speakers were Eugene Kinckle Jones, executive secretary of the National Urban League, and Moorfield Storey, former president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Mr Wm. A. Lee, secretary of the Cambridge Urban League, presented an outline of the accomplishments of his organization for the past year and the plans for the expansion during the ensuing fiscal year. Among those present were: Mr. and Mrs. Paul J. Sachs, Dean L. B. R. Briggs, Mr. and Mrs. John Graham Brooks, Mrs. John M. Moors, Miss Alice Tapley, Miss Louise W.

Negro Writes Century Pageant Negro Writes Century Pageant St. Louis, Mo.-The city of St. Louis has celebrated the hundredth anniversary of the admission of Missouri to the Union with a series of performances of a play, "Missouri," written for the occasion. "Missouri" is part drama and part pageant, with the whole connected, diluted and exalted with music, also specially written. The music was divided among three composers, the prologue being written by Gerald Tyler, Colored, Assistant Supervisor of Music in the public schools; the epilogue by Frederick Fischer, Acting Conductor of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra; and the incidental music by Noel Poepping, a local bandmaster. A thousand people, including the Symphony Orchestra, took part in the performance and the audiences crowded the Coliseum. Mr. Tyler more than justified the exceptional compliment implied in his selection for this difficult and distinguished service, and the press and public have given him unstinted praise.

Prauner meeting Wednesday evening. Prayer meeting Wednesday evening. BOULDER, COLO., NEWS We again had a snow, but it is all gone now and we are again basking in the warm sunshine. The nights and mornings are rather chilly, but the days are nice. Everyone reports a nice Thanksgiving. We join heartily in the report. Sunday was quarterly conference at the Allen Chapel but the presiding elder could not get here, so Rev. Carter officiated in his place, assisted by Rev. James Clay. Rev. Carter preached from the subject, "The Terrible Suffering of Christ." He drew a very vivid word picture of the humiliating, degraded, despised condition on the cross. His beauty was marred. Man could not discern Christ's real beauty because of his terrible suffering. The world ever hid its face in darkness, but in love he left the Last Supper on record for his to commemorate to show forth his death and suffering until he comes again. Sunday morning Rev. Jackson spoke on "Thanksgiving to God" and reminded his audience how the first Thanksgiving was held by the Pilgrim Fathers over 300 years ago, impressing it upon our minds to be thankful each day for the many blessings which we receive daily from the loving hand of God. At night the services were conducted by the young people. The first number on the program was "Awakening Chorus," in concert. March, played by Miss Yvette Horne. Solo, "Deep River," sung by Mr. T. Horne. Duet, "Where the Lazy Mississippi Flows," sung by Miss Ruth Caves and Miss Marie Townsend. Violin solo, by Mr. Alex. Brickler. Piano solo, "La Zingana," player by Mr. James Chrysler. He responded to an encore. Closing remarks by the pastor, Rev. Jackson. The program was enjoyed by all who attended. The Thanksgiving dinner given by the sisters and friends of the Allen Chapel last week was a success. They are smiling. Rev. Carter received a letter recently from Bishop Brooks, who is in Africa, telling him over 6,000 souls had been saved since March. We think that a good report. FOREIGN A carpenter at Bologna, Italy, who was left about $100,000 by a brother, who died in America, is continuing at his bench. He is not quite 40 years old. He says he understands carpentry and intends to stick to it and to his humble shop. Major General Crowder has informed the French ambassador in Washington that he will be unable to go there to receive the Grand Cross of the French Legion of Honor, which, it was learned has been conferred on him for his services during the war. The decoration, it is expected, will be given him by the French minister in Cuba. Severe criticism has been aroused by the exhibiting of a Fokker airplane at the aviation salon in Paris, it being held that it is too early after the German army of Fokkers bombarded Paris for a machine made by the same man to be admitted to France for show purposes. As a concession, the name Fokker has been removed from the machine. The missing suitcase containing the passports of the wives of eighty-two American soldiers, who left Coblenz for Antwerp on their way home, was found by the military police. Discovery that the satchel was missing was made just before the train pulled out. The military police who found the documents expressed belief that the satchel had been taken from the train by a jealous woman. Steam and sailing vessels totally lost and condemned last year numbered 561 of 645,603 tons, according to statistics published by Lloyds' register of shipping in London.

The United States lost ten vessels of 159,694 tons; Great Britain 163 of 100,503 tons. El Sol, in Madrid, published a semi-official declaration, which also appeared in Barcelona newspapers, stating that all ammunition acquired in the United States for use in the Moroccan campaign was found to be unfit for use. An authoritative source is responsible for the statement that the Spanish army purchase commission in the United States acquired discarded stocks with full knowledge of their quality and that Spanish inspectors passed them. The government of British Columbia made a net profit of $541,606 on liquor sales during the first three and one-half months of operation under the provincial liquor sales board, ending Sept. 30, according to a balance sheet filed in the Legislature by J. W. DeB, Farris, attorney general. This amount does not include $121,000 received from sales of permits to purchase liquor. Half the profits of the board are to be divided among municipalities of the province on the basis of school population. GENERAL The Masons of Wisconsin, at the close of the general session at Milwaukee, voted to build a hospital larger than any existing institution of the kind. The building will be started in the spring and will be built and equipped entirely with funds raised by the 45,000 members in the state. A conviction that in a few years every state would require its boys to be 18 years old and high school graduates before permitting them to work was expressed by Dr. A. E. Winship of Boston, editor of the Journal of Education, in addressing the conference to discuss illiteracy in session at New York. The board of supervisors of Pocahontas county, Iowa, have ordered the county auditor to buy corn for use as heating fuel this winter in the courthouse, county home and insane infirmary. The supervisors said that their action is based on the fact that the price of ear corn here is less than one-third of 1 cent per pound and coal is more than two-thirds of 1 cent per pound. For the first time in history a negro institution was admitted to the Carnegie foundation when the trustees voted to receive Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., into the foundation. An accident occurred every twenty minutes on the streets of New York last year. There were 27,550 vehicular accidents, which killed 864 persons and injured 17,133 men and 6,146 women. Private cars were in 7,608 of the mishaps, business automobiles in 3,523 and taxicabs in 1,231. Elbridge Gerry Snow, financier, who soon will be 80 years old, and Mrs. Fanny Joyce Marsh, 45, of St. Augustine, Fla., were married at New York.

THE WORLD IN PARAGRAPHS A BRIEF RECORD OF PASSING EVENTS IN THIS AND FOR EIGN COUNTRIES. DOINGS AND HAPPENINGS THAT MARK THE PROGRESS OF THE AGE. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) WESTERN Ruth Thompkins, 5 years old, was crushed to death while playing in a cave dug by children when the sides caved in, burying her under two tons of earth, at Scotts Bluff, Neb. Three unmasked men entered the Northwestern Loan office, a block from the police station in Omaha, held up Sam Cohn and Ben Morris, proprietors, and escaped with $7,000 in diamonds, jewelry and cash. Damages of $21,400 for the death of Charles F. van de Water, congressman-elect of Long Beach, on Nov. 20, 1920, against the owners of the truck into which his automobile crashed, have been entered by stipulation in the Los Angeles Superior Court. Emery Rogers, former lieutenant in the aviation corps and an instructor at various Eastern flying fields, was injured fatally in a crash at a field near Los Angeles maintained by a commercial flying company he organized. Spectators said his monoplane was about forty feet up and traveling rapidly when Rodgers attempted a turn. The plane crashed sidewise. Gus Branch, a pool hall proprietor of Truckee, Calif., was placed in the county jail to await preliminary hearing on a charge that he murdered Annie Boyle, whose body recently was disinterred at Ogden. The disinterment is said to have disclosed that the woman was beaten severely. An inquest soon after death held she had committed suicide by poisoning. W. H. Holls, a resident of Fort Worth, Texas, was taken three miles west of town by masked men and whipped, he informed the police. He said the men took him to the county jail following the whipping and released him. Police say Holls told them that he was informed by the masked men that he was whipped because he possessed a quantity of liquor. The Union Pacific railroad system has decided to begin its conferences between company officials and representatives of the workers on the question of lower wages on Dec. 21, it was stated at headquarters of the system in Omaha. All classes of employés would be affected, it was said. Some of the conferences will be held in Omaha, while others probably will be conducted in Salt Lake City, Portland and Los Angeles. WASHINGTON The back to the farm movement is progressing satisfactorily, according to the Department of Agriculture, despite the fact the farmer is having a hard row to hoe these days, and the unemployment situation is being relieved as a result. Workers in the New York navy yard passed resolutions asking Congress to give a year's salary to all employés who have been in the yard more than a year should they lose their jobs through suspension of work on agreement of the arms conference. Secretary of War Weeks estimated that about 2,000 of the American forces on the Rhine will be at home before Christmas. The Cantigny, one of the two vessels engaged to transport the forces home, is already on the way to New York with the first contingent. Louis Gillot, historical painter, has been commissioned by the French government to make a picture of the arms conference, to be hung in one of the national galleries of France. The Chinese and Japanese delegates to the conference on disarmament continue to hold the center of the stage in Washington so far as interest in the personality of the personnel of the various delegations is concerned. To the average American the evidences of familiarity with American customs and practices of those from the Orient has been a matter of surprise. Values of the merchandise exported during October fell to fractional parts of the totals for the same month last year, while decided drops in imports were noted by the commerce department in its monthly summary. Exports to Europe aggregated $196,000,000 compared with $423,000,000 in October last year, while imports amounted to $67,000,000 against $88,000,000.

A woman about 30 years old who came to Colorado Springs from Los Angeles, Calif., and registered as Sophia Graven, committed suicide by drowning herself in the lake at the Broadmoor hotel. A note found in the woman's handbag stated that she was suffering from tuberculosis and that she decided to end her suffering by drowning. Ed Wagner, a rancher near Sunnyside, twenty miles south of Durango, was shot and killed instantly by Luke Busser, 55 years old. Meenger information obtained on the shooting reported that the two revived an old racial quarrel. Wagner was of German parentage. Busser is a native of Alsace-Lorraine. They had argued in times past on the question of governmental control of Alsace-Lorraine. Frank Fortuna, held in the Huerrano county jail at Walsenburg on a charge of burglary, escaped by digging a hole through the ceiling over the cell house and making his way to the roof and dropping to the ground. Fortuna was arrested following the robbery of the store of the Huerrano Trading Company at Camp Shumway. A shotgun, cigarettes and a quantity of stamps were taken. The store also is the camp postoffice. The charred remains of William Ross, 40 years old, were found by firemen who were searching the debris and wreckage caused by a fire of unknown origin in a pool hall in Pueblo.

Sixty thousand dollars is now available to assist State Treasurer Stong in re-establishing the credit of the state, which has been stamping all warrants "no funds." The State Land Board, through Register George Stephan and the State Industrial Commission, through Commissioners Hilts and Reilly, put $30,000 each at the disposal of Treasurer Stong to purchase interest-bearing salary warrants of state employés and warrants issued to cover their traveling expenses. A pledge to refuse to assist in future wars has been taken jointly by Mrs. Julia McCudden, the British war mother delegate at the burial of America's unknown soldier, and Mrs. R. Ernest Digney of White Plains, N. Y., official war mother. This became known at a luncheon tendered Mrs. McCudden by the New York state chapter of American War Mothers. Notice of wage cuts effective in thirty days have been filed with the State Industrial Commission by the Pueblo Master Plumbers' Association and the Roberts Mining and Machinery Company at Pueblo. The Pueblo association consists of eight concerns. The wage cuts are to affect the wages of nine plumbers and steamfitters of Pueblo and all employés of the Denver concern. Fire of unknown origin did $50,000 damage to Dixieland, a $75,000 home of Mrs. L. Kniffen of Pueblo. The property is situated five miles from Colorado Springs at the entrance of North Cheyenne canon, and is one of the show places of the Pike's peak region. The fire spread to adjoining cottages, Mrs. G. E. Burkett, an invalid being rescued from one of the burning houses by neighbors. Plans are being held for the entertainment of a record number of stock show visitors this year, according to Harry L. Younggerman, general manager of the National Western Stock Show. "Advance reports indicate a big increase in attendance at the Denver stock show, which will be held from Jan. 14 to Jan. 21," he said. "Railroads have granted us a rate of a fare and one-half for the round trip. The district thus covered extends from the Missouri river west, taking a larger territory than that covered by the rates to the Portland show." CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Not only is there a steady increase in the number of farms being operated in Colorado from year to year, but evidently there is also an increase each year in the average number of acres under cultivation for each farm. Reports of county assessors to the State' Immigration Department show that the average number of acres under cultivation per farm in the state this year was 102.55, compared with 101.99 last year and 100.67 acres in 1919. County assessors reported 52,245 farms being operated in the state in 1921, compared with 49,117 last year and 47,887 in 1919. The actual number of farms in the state is considerably above the numbers here given, the census having reported 59,934 farms on January 1, 1920. The number, however, includes a great many farms on which no land is being cultivated, but which are being used only for pasture purposes. It is estimated that there are not fewer than 55,000 farms in the state on which land is actually being cultivated each year. The increase in cultivated acreage per farm, as shown by assessors' reports, is due chiefly to a gradual increase in the acreage of winter wheat being grown on eastern Colorado farms. In 1921 there was an average of 26.95 acres of winter wheat reported for each farm in the state, compared with 20.20 acres per farm reported for 1919. Nearly all other crops show slight decreases in acreage reported per farm in 1921 as compared with 1919. A larger percentage of the acreage in cultivation in 1921 was devoted to wheat than to any other crop, approximately one-third the cultivated area being devoted to winter and spring wheat combined. Corn ranks second in this respect, with 19.59 per cent, and alfalfa third, with 11.92 per cent. The following percentages of the cultivated area are devoted to other leading crops: Oats, 5.13; barley, 4.48; rye, 2.37; sorghums, 6.06; sugar beets, 3.10. In many eastern Colorado counties more than 40 per cent of the cultivated acreage is devoted to wheat, the largest proportion being reported for Phillips, which shows 59.25 of its cultivated area devoted to wheat. Nine counties in this section of the state have more than 40 per cent each of their cultivated areas assigned to wheat. Harry H. French, forest supervisor of the Holy Cross Forest with headquarters at Glenwood Springs, has been transferred to the Uncompahgre National Forest with headquarters at Delta, Colo. He goes to the Uncompahgre Forest with sixteen years' experience as a forest officer, having been appointed forest guard on the Holy Cross National Forest in November 1905, and supervisor of the same forest a year later, which position he has held up to this present time. The Uncompahgre is indeed fortunate to secure a man of such training and ability to fill the place left vacant by Supervisor Jeffers, who resigned to become head of the forestry school at Ames, Iowa. Federal Judge Lewis ordered the sale of the airplane seized last June when Eddie Brooks, its driver, was arrested on the charge of transporting liquor in it from Canada to Colorado. The court denied the petition of the Nebraska Airplane Corporation, which claimed to be the innocent owner of the plane, for an order restoring it to the concern's possession. Counsel for the Nebraska company gave notice that an appeal would be taken. Candidates for the position of postmaster of Denver must have their applications in the hands of the Civil Service Commission at Washington on or before Dec. 20, according to an announcement made by John G. Telcher, district secretary of the commission. The examinations will not be held until some time in January. Mrs. Celeste Hicks, 83 years old, a pioneer of upper Bear creek and widow of the late Daniel Hicks, who made the Hicks ranch famous to sportsmen and tourists, is dead at Morrison. Illness caused by overwork is thought by friends and faculty associates to have led Miss Eva Baum to take her life in the chemistry building of the University of Colorado at Boulder. No notes or any other explanation for the suicide have been found. Her father came from Salina, Kan. The War Finance Corporation announced fifty-six government loans, amounting to $2,073,000, for agricultural and live stock purposes. Among the loans were: Wyoming, $43,000; Iowa, $429,000; Nebraska, $95,000; Oregon, $23,000; Colorado, $41,000; Montana, $232,000; Kansas, $43,000. A charred body, identified by the authorities as that of James Williams, 77 years old, negro, veteran of the Civil War, and a member of the G. A. R., was found by firemen who responded to an alarm at the aged man's home at Pueblo. The cause of the fire, which did $500 damage, is unknown. The Farmers' mill and grain elevator at Craig caught fire and was a total loss. The building is just outside the city limits, and beyond reach of the water system. The Co-operative Farmers' Company, which owns the elevator, is one of the few successful companies of the kind in the state. Alve L. Richey, an experienced forest officer has been appointed supervisor on the Holy Cross Forest. He was appointed forest ranger on the Hayden National Forest June 1, 1911, served in the same position on the Routt and became supervisor of the Arapahoe in March 1920. Besides his preliminary education, he was two years a student at the University of Colorado. This, with his ten and one half years' experience in forestry work has well fitted him for the position as supervisor of the Holy Cross National Forest. A M hi sa pe Phone M J.

MISS AINSAY WANTED ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION AMERICA HAS NO AXES TO GRIND HER ATTITUDE IN ARMAMENT CONFERENCE IS UNSELFISH, HER DESIRES BENEFICENT. OTHER NATIONS KNOW THIS Basic Reason for Calling of the Meeting is Economic and It Will Really Be a Business Procedure to Cut Down the Expenditures of the Nations. By EDWARD B. CLARK. Washington.—Aside from a wish to secure lasting peace, the motives for the calling of the arms limitation conference are in the largest sense economic. President Harding, and of course millions with him, recognized the generally frightful conditions which exist all over the world. He believed that he had some influence and some power which might make for the relief of these conditions. Therefore the great nations of the world were invited to send representatives to Washington on Armistice day to give consideration to means by which the world's armaments can be cut. As a preliminary to the limitation of armaments, it is known that the problems of the Far East must be solved. Therefore the two great matters were combined in the call for the conference. The basic reason, aside from any consideration of peace on earth, good will toward men, for the calling of the conference on the limitation of armaments, is that the money which the peoples of earth are providing to kill their fellows may be turned into the channels of beneficent trade and beneficent living. There is every reason to know that the administration plus the State department, which is of course a part of it, is firm today in its conviction that something strong and good is to be the result of the conferring together of men who virtually have plenipotentiary powers. These powers are plenipotentiary today because they come from the people of the world rather than from the politicians thereof. The time is past when the foreign offices or any officials of government can work their will without regard to the masses of the people. America Has No Selfish Aim. In the conference which began nominally on the eleventh, but in fact on the fourteenth of this month, the representatives of the United States will sit free from any anxieties concerning a failure to secure this or that which may work to the selfish advantage of their country. All that they will want is the settlement of the Far East problems and the limitation of armaments on an equitable basis. The conferees in behalf of the other nations know already that the United States wants nothing in the way of territory, nothing in the way of exclusive trade, and nothing which will work wrong to any other nation on earth. "We want nothing that they rightfully have, but they cannot have anything that rightfully belongs to us." In the quoted paragraph perhaps is to be found a short statement of the exact position of the United States in entering into the conference. When it is said that the United States will not surrender anything that it has, it of course is meant, that it will not give up anything which it considers vital to the interests of its people but it does not mean that the United States will not yield in matters upon which it has seemingly fixed judgment, provided there is certainty of yielding on the part of others. It can be deduced readily enough from everything which has been said or intimated by the administration through its various channels of vocal approach to the people, that the situation from the American viewpoint is: "We have no axes to grind, no grudges to settle, no scores to even; our desires are beneficent; let them be met in like spirit." Business, Not Sentiment, to Rule. It might be just as well for the American people to know that there is no illusion in Washington that everything to be done at the conference is to be done because of the dictates of friendship and good will. Not a nation is represented which will not have in mind the selfish interests of its people, their jealousies and a pretty fair understanding of just how much its people will stand for in the way of yielding, and also let it be said in the way of pressing. The conference in the highest sense is a business procedure. An agreement for the limitation of armaments is a business matter. It is a financial matter. Figures are cold, but figures, money figures, are dominating factors in the limitation of armaments problem which is to be solved. Of course the entire navy program of no nation will be blue-penciled in every line. Every great nation which has a sea coast will have something of a navy. Great Britain's navy of the future, and the navies of Japan and the United States, will be navies of size; but all things are comparative, and if the cutting comes it will be deep cutting and a cutting which the people will say probably is well done. Many Foreign Journalists. Foreign newspaper men in great numbers have come to town. Several hundreds of American newspaper men are acting as hosts, about one hundred of them being in a way special hosts because not so long ago they were in a pretty close sense the guests of many of these foreigners who now have come to America "to help put the war correspondents' job on the list of discarded occupations." It is pleasant to note that the majority of the writers who have come here to cover the conference is composed of real newspaper men, men trained to their business. There are here in addition quite a number of men and women who have made their reputations by writing six best sellers, and other kindred things, but who perhaps are not as competent to find news nor to write it as the men who know the game and have stalked with it through the years. Phillippe Millet of France is here. He is the correspondent of Le Petit Parisien, a journal which rejoices, or at any rate, whose owner rejoices, in a circulation of something over a million every day in the year barring only Sundays, which is something of a circulation for a daily paper. Then we have with us M. Gerard, otherwise known as "Pertinax." France and the world pretty generally know this pertinacious gentleman. He is a writer of rare merit, and, what counts some, a good fellow. From British Empire and Orient. From England has come Mr. Steed of the London Times; Sir Arthur Willert, who will be a sort of helper in publicity in behalf of the foreign office of his government, and Wilmet Lewis, who for years served a great London newspaper in the Far East. There are other British newspaper men here representing the papers of the home island and of Canada, Australia and the other lands beyond the seas which look to England as the mother country. Japan has sent a round dozen of writers to cover the conference. With them are several Chinese newspaper men and perhaps it is almost needless to say that their viewpoint of things is somewhat different from that of their Japanese brethren, but they get along together with an Oriental amiability which makes for the general grace of things in comradeship. The arrival is expected shortly of Henri Ponsot of Paris who in the early days of the great war was the director of what the French called the bureau de la presse. Monsieur Ponsot will be hailed joyfully by some twenty or thirty Washington correspondents, and some others who are here only temporarily. It is probable that this early war director of press activities in France had as thankless a job as ever fell upon the shoulders of man to tote along. His headquarters were in the foreign office of the French government and there day by day all through 1915 and a part of 1916, appeared correspondents from all over the world begging permission to go to the front. Ponsot, Friend or Correspondents. In April, 1915, only eight months after the war had started, I went to France as a correspondent. Arriving in Paris, I went to Ponsot's office, made myself known, presented my credentials, and asked for permission to go to the front as soon as possible. Monsieur Ponsot smiled at me, made me feel at home and then told me that the government was allowing five newspaper men each month to go to the front and that there were seventy newspaper men all clamoring for the privilege. This meant that if things went along in the regular order of precedence a correspondent might have to stay in Paris pretty near a year before he would get a chance to see a shell fall. He would have to fight "the battle of Paris" with his pen and try to satisfy the home readers with accounts of a war which he was not allowed to witness. Somehow or other Ponsot, journalistic genius of the bureau de la presse, worked things out satisfactorily. The foreign newspaper men saw the front fairly quickly and were able to write about it from a visualizing standpoint. How he did it I don't know, but he did it. I know that I had two extended trips along the front within six weeks of the time that I arrived at Monsieur Ponsot's office and was met with the intimation that I might have to wait a year. I think the other newspaper men had like experiences. It may be that the conference in many of its sessions will not be open to the public, but with much more than half a thousand newspaper men on the spot, some of whom know pretty nearly every great one who is in their midst, and who are willing to interpret the great one's intentions for his brethren, there is little chance that the public will not be kept well informed as to what's what in the great conference on the limitation of armaments and Far East problems. Tender Hearts. "Yes," said the old timer of the Bar-C ranch, "this here civilization out o'th' East has got into our best society like a reglar mange.

Hardly a day but what the daily papers team with assaults, hold-ups and murders, until timid, peace-loving citizens go upon our streets at night with great reluctance. In most cases the Mexican colony has been combed for the guilty parties, until in sheer desperation the police department last Sunday rounded up about 350 of them and marched them to jail. In the old days the saloon was pointed as the natural breeding ground for crime, and criminals were supposed to get up the necessary courage for their deeds of daring by a liberal indulgence of the flowing bowel. We were told that banishment of the saloons meant an automatic stoppage of crime and poverty would be unknown. Reformers and apologists preached a sermon on this by day and by night. Like all good citizens we are glad that the saloon is no longer a recognized American institution. Heaven knows its sins were many and it virtually brought its own destruction. Humanity is many folds better off with it in the discard. But our psychology and comparative criminology was all wrong. We still have large need of peace officers, corrective homes and penal institutions. The need of liberal charitable contributions still haunt our common lot. Perhaps after all the proper allowances were not made for the frailties and weaknesses of human nature. The beast in man will crop out, no matter what the environments, and red liquor is not always contributive to that spirit of prodigality that fails to reckon sufficiently for that rainy day. It is apparent then that we must take a new hitch upon ourselves. Reformers must reform some more. The millenium is still a long way off and our present civilization is manifestly not yet ready for its dawning. WHERE THOU LEADEST. ING more and more evident each day that we need nothing so much as an intelligent, unleadership. It is one thing to be fearless, another thing to be alert and competent. It is our reserve every right and principle justly thing to view every race contention as an praise. The need of today is for an enlist every chance to gain ground and pre IT IS BECOMING more and more evident each day that the Negroes of this country need nothing so much as an intelligent, unselfish and common sense leadership. It is one thing to be fearless and fool-hardy and quite another thing to be alert and competent. It is one thing to guard with jealous reserve every right and principle justly ours, and certainly another thing to view every race contention as an opportunity for selfish gain and praise. The need of today is for an enlightened leadership, quick to grasp every chance to gain ground and prove our worthiness of the things we are aiming for in our upward march. Moreover we need and must have a constructive leadership that gets things accomplished, that puts things over, that mean something for the general good. Just now there is too much hysteria, too much false bickering that in the end means turmoil without beneficient results and sham battles without victory. This kind of leadership, as a general proposition, does not get any where, is founded purely upon selfishness and is far more sacrificial than useful. Common sense and common justice requires close contact with the people, and a willingness to interpret their aims and aspirations. Personal gain and self-seeking must be put aside first of all else the very foundation of leadership is erected upon treacherous ground. It may be stated without question that every element of leadership arises from a strong personality. Few men seek command. Their special qualifications are recognized and they are of the chosen counsellors and spokesman of a large unit at times of peril and danger, and some time in the hour of success. But the very triumph over peril and the gaining of a signal success is too often a bid for the coming forth less inspired leaders, who can see only the loaves and fishes within their personal reach. It is not to be expected that any man will give largely of his time, ability and means to any given cause without a thought of reward, but that reward must be in the consciousness of having been instrumental in securing the greatest amount of good to the greatest possible number. Superior strength is sometimes the greatest weakness an individual can possess, for in many instances he pulls down the temple to his own destruction. There are times when his strength will have to be used to his own personal disadvantage if he would keep foremost the hopes and purposes of the people whom he represents. The world seems, and, in fact, is full of turmoil today. It is easy to get a scrap. No race or individual need go around continually with a chip on his shoulder. The challenge may be accepted. We of the Negro race have a hard battle ahead of us, the goal of full citizenship is far off. We can neither halt nor surrender. The fight is wholly ours as the common lot of mankind in general is a seething cauldron and everybody is too busy looking after his own to worry about the other fellow. Hence the greater is the responsibility resting upon the shoulders of our leaders. He must first of all divest himself of the very human quality of selfishness. By so doing he will exert a greater power and influence than the man bent on self-serving. He will thus lead his people into high places and earn the rightful gratitude of a blessed people. OPEN SHOP PLAN IS RECOGNIZED NEW RULES ADOPTED WILL HAVE FAR-REACHING EFFECT ON LABOR. BIG SAVING EXPECTED ALL RAILROADS COME UNDER REVISED PLANS OF RAIL- ROAD LABOR BOARD. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) Chicago.—Economies in operation and increased efficiency, estimated to reach $50,000,000 a year, and recognition of the "open shop" on all American railroads were forecast in the promulgation of revised working rules governing railroad shop employés by the United States Railroad Labor Board. The new rules became effective Dec. 1, and take jurisdiction over approximately 400,000 men immediately, although a still larger number will be affected when the normal traffic conditions are restored. Far-reaching changes in the rules, which supplant the national agreement made during federal control, were designed to afford a basis for permanent stability in the railroad shops of the country and were declared by members of the Labor Board to be the most important work yet done by the board and of much greater significance than any decision in the past, even including wage scale adjustments. Large economies are expected to result from revision of the classification rules, which were made more elastic, and hereafter will permit members of certain crafts to do minor jobs previously done by members of other crafts. Statisticians attached to the Labor Board estimated that economies in operation, increased efficiency and larger output would approximate $50,000,000 a year. Provision for the representation of minorities who may have grievances is another important item of the new rules. Under the national agreement negotiation for employés was placed almost wholly in the hands of labor organizations, with the result that the railroad and many industrial and civil institutions declared that the agreement forced a closed union shop on the roads. Nonunion men found it impracticable to attempt to bring their grievances before the board, and as the rules worked out, union officials handled the cases, taking their precedent from the national agreement negotiations, in which union officials acted for the employés in drawing up the agreement under federal control. "Most of the older working rules, sanctioned by the experience of years, are preserved in full effect. Many of the more rigid rules, however, were considerably relaxed in favor of the roads, although the recognized rights of the men are fully protected and the principle of collective bargaining and union recognition is retained, as contemplated by the transportation act." The rules controversy dates back to May 1, 1920, when the railroads emerged from government control. Strenuous objections to the national agreement were made in a hearing which began Jan. 10, 1921. After several months of testimony, the rules were referred back to the individual roads, with instructions to negotiate such new rules as they could with their employés to replace the federal government rules. 818,000 Men in French Army. Paris.—The strength of France's army was given as 818,000 as of Oct. 1 by the report of the army commission to the chamber of deputies, made public. The report was made public in connection with the government's proposed law calling the class of 1922 to the colors in two contingents, one next May and the other next November. Twelve Killed In Wreck. Red Bluff, Calif.-Twelve high school students were killed south of here at the Proberta crossing by the collision of the school bus in which they were riding with Southern Pacific train No. 15. The automobile contained sixteen children. The four injured are not expected to live. Dynamite Cap Kills Farmer. McKinney, Tex.—Robert Steele, 55 years old, is dead here from injuries incurred when a dynamite cap exploded in his mouth. He had been blowing out tree stumps on a farm near Princeton, and was clampling the cap to the dynamite fuse by means of his teeth. Famine Spreading in Russia. Riga.—Famine horrors in Russia are growing with the approach of winter, official Bolshevist government advices show. In the Saratov region, where 389,000 peasants are listed as starving, even children have been without food several days and many persons are going mad. Dispatches to the Rosta News agency says many mothers are bathing their children in a polsonous extract made from sheeps' wool, hoping it will bring about their death. THE DENVER DRY GOODS CO.

Mystery surrounds the murder of Mrs. Pearl Hart, who was foully shot to death last Saturday afternoon at 2941 California street. On Monday afternoon the police arrested Mack Bird, a bootblack in the Kittredge buildings, and claim to have strong evidence against him. Up to this time no funeral arrangements have been made. THE WILLS-THOMPSON FIGHT. The large crowd that attended the fight at the stock yards stadium Wednesday night when Harry Wills of New Orleans and Jack Thompson of Tulsa, Oklahoma, met in what was scheduled for a twelve-round go, left the arena greatly disappointed at the outcome. Thompson claimed he was fouled in the fourth round and the referee announced it no fight. Wills had by far the better of it up to the time of the unfortunate ending. Kid Bell, the old reliable, was given a well earned decision over Battling Cordove in a four-round affair. FATHER WILLIAMS TO ADDRESS N. A. A. C. P. MONDAY NIGHT. The Rev.

NEW STATE HOSPITAL OPEN TO ALL PEOPLE Campaign Will Open in Denver Monday for Dollar Contributions. ONE DOLLAR will be asked from every citizen of Colorado to insure the erection of the proposed State General Hospital to cost $1,500,000. The hospital will be built in Denver, with Colorado materials and Colorado labor. The General Education Board has contributed $700,000, the state Legislature $600,000 and the balance of $200,000 is being asked from the people of the state. For every dollar given by a Colorado citizen $3.50 in outside money will be contributed. Unless $200,000 is raised by popular subscription, the offer of the General Education Board will be withdrawn. Denver's share of the subscription is set at $113,996. The intensive campaign here will be from Dec. 5 to Dec. 10. Volunteer workers representing all classes and occupations will co-operate. Every adult citizen will be asked to give at least one dollar. Unsolicited subscriptions are already coming into headquarters. Several citizens have sent in donations of one dollar for every member of their families. The hospital is not for the treatment of tubersulosis, but to take care of complex diseases, which require the services of specialists of the highest order. Its services will be free, and at the disposal of all citizens regardless of creed or color. It is an economic necessity, say those in charge of the campaign, and will perform an essential duty of the state to its citizens. The hospital will be located in Denver because of this city's superior railroad facilities, which make it most accessible from all parts of the state. Moreover, the new buildings of the medical school of the University of Colorado will be located here, and the hospital will have the services of its skilled medical staff and of many prominent local physicians and surgeons. The event of the season will be when Mr. and Mrs. Shirley Liggins appear in vocal and dramatic recital at Shorter, Wednesday, Dec. 7th, 35c. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO. FUNERAL NOTICES.

EASON, AMERICAN LEADER OF THE U. N. I. A., MAKES MANY CONVERTS TO THE GARVEY MOVEMENT. THE people of Denver had an opportunity of hearing the truth about the GARKEY MOVEMENT and the fundamental principles of the Universal Negro Improvement Association expounded, when the American leader of the Association, Hon. J. W. H. Eason of New York, speaking for thirteen times in the People's Tabernacle and other church buildings and halls, gave clear, logical and conclusive proofs of the great possibilities of the achievements of the New Negro, and the successful working out of the plan of the REDEMPTION OF AFRICA. The small but appreciative audiences at the beginning grew larger and larger as this scholar, orator and representative of this great cause won the hearts of his hearers, at the same time removing the great barrier that confronted him in the opposition of a "wholesale emigration to Africa," by members of the "class"—an element found in every city who place this construction on the movement, and who delight in opposing anything not originated by them, viewing the masses as inferior. The Denver Division No. 118, A. E. H. Hon. J. W. H. Eason of New York, American leader of the Universal Negro Improvement Association and African Communities League, who spoke in Denver from Nov. 13 to 25, and convinced his hearers that the Garvey Movement is the only logical solution to amend the wrongs inflicted on us. A great orator and qualified leader, he caused many to enlist under the banner of the Red, the Black and the Green. under whose auspices the American leader held the series of meetings, again proved to the community that the association consists of men qualified for leadership, and as the purpose and intent of the association mean the uniting of all the Negro peoples of the world, the arousing to Race-consciousness thereby creating Race solidarity from an universal standpoint the local branch extends the invitation to all persons who are identified with the Race to become members now and help us to put over this great big program which will win for us, our children and our children's children the respect and recognition of all other races and nations. The president and other officers and members of the local division worked assiduously to make the visit a success, and with the hearty support of the Rev. S. A. Stripling of the Scott M. E. Church and Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook, leading physician and surgeon of our city, in delivering addresses on behalf of the cause in conjunction with the Hon. Eason, great exponent of Garveyism, many members were added to the division. Mr. Wilford Prendergast, representing the Black Star Line Steamship Corporation and Liberty Construction Loan, made strong appeals in all the meetings for the purchase of shares and taking of stock, and succeeded in interesting some of the members. All classes of citizens attended the meetings, and although not yet converted to the point of casting their lot with us, are convinced of the principle which states that the only salvation of the Negro is the founding of a government for the protection of himself the world over, and the engaging of large commercial enterprises as other peoples of other races. The music for the series of meetings was provided by Misses Mabel Cole, Naomi Brown and Mr. Browning Allen, vocalists; Mrs. Irene Pendley at the piano, Hewetson-Watson at the organ, and Miss Virgie Cole and Mr. Emilio Garcia, piano and trombone soloists, respectively. Their rendition was very acceptable and again it was demonstrated that the talent of the organization compares with the best in the city. Open Forum at Scott Church, Twenty-sixth avenue and Clarkson street, tomorrow, 3:30 p. m. Regular meeting Tuesday, Dec. 6, Mason's hall, 8:30 p. m. All are welcome. Next speaker, Rev. Dr. C. M. Grandison. Announcement later. If "dictated but not read" is a good businesslike slogan for the head of the house, what's the matter with "added but not balanced" for the cashier, or "stamped but not mailed" for the office boy?—Leslie's.

Dishes of curry are like the little girl with the curl, "when they are good they are very, very good, (if you like curry) and when they are bad they are horrid." ```markdown ``` One thing is best borne in mind when using curry and that is to cook it with the ingredients of the dish, when possible. In the Orient there are forty or more ways of preparing curry powder and only there do we get the perfection of the dish. Curry is like mincement and fruit cake—we like the kind we have been accustomed to use. Curry of Succotash.—Take two cupfuls each of fresh lima beans and cooked corn, or two cans of each; hear until hot and heap, after seasoning with salt, pepper and butter on a flat dish; cover with curry sauce and serve with potato croquettes, or banked mashed potatoes and chutney sauce. Curry Sauce.—Slimmer in two tablespoonfuls of butter, one large onion, finely minced, then add one tart apple, chopped; cook three minutes; then add one-half cupful of highly-seasoned vegetable stock or water and cook gently for five minutes; add another half cupful of stock and one cupful of milk, into which one dessert spoonful of curry has been stirred; let all boll up once, then press through a sieve, pressing well to get the juices; return to the fire and thicken with a tablespoonful of butter and flour for every cupful of liquid. Stir until it thickens and add salt before serving. This makes a mild curry sauce. Chicken Curry.—Cut up a plump young bird and fry brown in olive oil. Remove from the frying pan and place in the oven. Mix together two table-spoonsful each of flour and curry powder, then add gradually one cupful of stock. Fry two sliced onions in the hot fat, add the prepared stock, cook five minutes, then turn in the chicken. Cover and allow to simmer fifteen minutes. Serve hot with boiled seasoned rice. If the sauce seems too thick, add more of the stock. "If I knew that a word of mine, A word not kind and true. Might leave its trace on a loved one's face, I'd never speak harshly, would you? If I knew that the light of a smile, Might linger the whole day through, And brighten some heart with a heavier part, I wouldn't withhold it, would you?" True economy means wise distinction between essentials and non-essentials. This applies to the economy of strength as well as materials. Fruit and vegetables are essential to good health; eggs are essential as meat substitutes and not an extravagance when moderate in price. Cream is an easily digested fat; economy of strength as well as materials. Fruit and vegetables are essential to good health; eggs are essential as meat substitutes and not an extravagance when moderate in price. Cream is an easily digested fat; milk is an absolute necessity. A meal which does not meet the needs of the body is not an economically prepared meal, although if the day's meals are balanced the result is the same. Hamburg Steak.—Do not buy the chopped meat but get a piece of round steak, put it up with some suet or pork through the meat chopper, season with onion, salt, pepper, a bit of clove and form into flat cakes. Broil or pan broil and serve with a brown sauce. Baked potatoes with boiled cream onions will be good vegetables to serve with this dinner. Chicken With Corn.—Scrub and clean a fowl well by using a handful of soda in the water; cut up as for frying, roll in seasoned flour and brown in a little hot fat. Lay the pieces in a baking dish and cover with milk, simmer slowly for two hours or longer, depending upon the age of the fowl. Season well when half cooked and add a cupful of corn or more. The fresh corn, cut from the cob, is best, but canned will do. Serve the chicken with corn and gravy poured around it. Stuffed Onions—Parboil large-sized onions, take out the centers, leaving a cavity to hold the filling. Chop the onion, which was taken from the center, mix with cold sausage meat or bacon and bread crumbs with seasonings. Fill the centers, pour around, add good beef broth or add water and butter. Bake until the onions are tender, basting occasionally. Cover with a spoonful of buttered crumbs and brown just before serving. Tomato Custard.—Put into a buttered baking dish one pint of canned tomatoes, one-teaspoonful of sugar, one tablespoonful of scraped onion, one-fourth cupful of fine soft bread crumbs.

Pour it over the tomatoes and bake in a moderate oven until the custard is set. ENGLAND ATTEMPTS TO BRING JAPAN INTO LINE ON NAVAL DISPUTE. DEADLOCKED ON 5-5-3 PRINCIPALS ON BOTH SIDES WILL NOT ADMIT SITUATION. IS AT STANDSTILL. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) Washington.—Great Britain, as the mily of Japan, is using her influence to bring Japanese views in the naval ratio dispute into harmony with those of the United States. With this development, Japanese plenipotentiaries again have submitted the question to Tokio. The nature of the latest move for a solution of the ratio problem is not disclosed, but it is indicated that Great Britain has found a double interest in the success of the negotiations, because she has accepted to principle the American 5-5-3 proposal and because, on the other hand, she is in alliance with Japan, who asks for a ratio of 10-10-7. All principals on both sides refused to recognize the situation as a deadlock. The American delegates, it was said authoritatively, were even declining to regard Baron Kato's proposal for an increased Japanese strength as a formal presentation of the Japanese viewpoint. They were confident, it was declared, that the 10-10-7 proportion would be abandoned before Japan's final statement of position is placed before the conference. It is apparent that if the proposal of the Japanese statesman is not to be regarded as formal, the reason lies in the fact that it was not "passed across the table" at a formal session of the conference, or any of its subdivisions. Baron Kato's request for an increase over the American ratio was communicated to Secretary Hughes and A. J. Balfour at a meeting of the three. In relating his government's position, the Japanese plenipotentiary touched on the reasons which impelled him to make the request and asked that the question of national needs be taken into account in determining the new naval relativity. In response, Secretary Hughes and Mr. Balfour made plain the opposition of the American and British delegations to vitally changing the basis of ratio determination, and Baron Kato indicated he desired before going further to communicate again with his government. Conversations are to be resumed when further advices come from Toklo. A new attempt has begun to settle the long debated Shantung controversy but in view of the status of the naval negotiations the Shantung conversations were looked on by many delegates as a small part of the main picture. Secretary Hughes and Mr. Balfour, exercising their "good offices," met with the Japanese and Chinese delegations for a preliminary survey and then left American and British "observers" on the ground to aid in whatever way they can to bring the two groups into agreement. Ten Killed; Sixty Injured. Portland, Ore.—Ten killed and sixty injured was the toll in human life and suffering taken in a head-on collision of two Oregon-Washington Railroad & Navigation Company passenger trains near Collox, Ore., according to latest reports to the company's head offices here. Riots and Looting in Vienna. Vienna—In the widespread rioting which occurred here many Americans staying at the hotels were attacked, and some were submitted to rough treatment. Mrs. Hand, wife of a colonel of the United States army, and her daughter were robbed of furs and clothing, but on the same floor Colonel and Mrs. Miller, U. S. A., displayed the American flag and spoke English and the rioters withdrew from their room. The New Bristol and the Old Bristol hotels were looted to the second floor. U. S. Wheat Wins Prize. Chicago. — America wrested the wheat championship from Canada when Walter Krafts, Bozeman, Mont., was crowned 1921 wheat king at the International Grain and Hay Show, for which $10,000 in prizes was awarded by the Chicago Board of Trade. Kraft takes the title from J. C. Mitchell of Dahinda, Sask. Mitchell was runner up this year. Kraft's wheat tested 63.6 pounds to the bushel and Mitchell's wheat tested 64.7 pounds, the smaller kernels giving greater weight. 9.000 Homicides in U. S. New York.—Homicides in the United States during 1920 totaled approximately 9,000, a decrease of 500 from the 1919 record, according to a computation by Frederick L. Hoffman. The figures made public showed Memphis, Tenn., still in the lead with a killing record of 63.4 persons for every 100,00 of population. In general, the tables showed that in Southern states the proportion of negroes slain was from three and one-half to seven times that of whites.

Every girl should have a room of her very own to arrange as she pleases, if the family can possibly spare the space. Girls instinctively love what is beautiful and try to express themselves in their surroundings. With a little thought and some real work the girl herself can transform an uninteresting, uninviting room into a place of tranquility and charm—a sort of sanctuary to which she can escape when she wants to think things out alone as girls often do. cream volle, scrim, swiss, or cheese cloth, hemmed or hemstitched, make good washable curtains which may have overcurtains of colored or figured material. The lighting is important. For lighting the bureau or dressing table an electric light on a drop cord or an inverted welsbach gas burner gives a better light if suspended over it, but if kerosene is the only source of light available a bracket lamp fastened to the wall at one side of the bureau gives The girls in the "Own Your Own Room" clubs, under the direction of the United States Department of Agriculture and various State agricultural colleges, have accomplished wonderful results in making over unattractive rooms according to the suggestions given them by club leaders and home economics specialists. The first step is naturally the improvement of the appearance of the empty shell of the room. 'A neutral shade for the walls, floor, and larger articles in the room is usually pleasing. Cushions, table covers, books, and other small, bright colored objects give the needed touch of color. Chintz or cretonne in curtains and cushions sometimes suggests the color to be emphasized. This is more informal and homelike than an attempt to have everything match. No matter what color scheme is chosen, the darkest tones are best for the floor and its covering, lighter tones for the walls, and the lightest for the ceiling. Smoothly finished floors partly covered with rugs are easily cared for. Paint or varnish can often be applied to an old unfinished wood floor to A Ginl Learns Much From Planning Simple, Attractive Room. make it look better. Attractive bedroom rugs can be made at home by braiding, crocheting, or weaving rags and odds and ends of material. Plain wall papers or those with inconspicuous all-over designs are good backgrounds for pictures. A plastered wall may be painted quite easily. The girl herself should be able to paint both the plaster and woodwork of her room if the latter needs attention. Palented bedroom furniture is much prettier than cheap grades of oak or stained wood. Old bureau, bedsteads, tables, and chairs, even though quite different in design, can be made to look as though they belonged together if carefully painted white, ivory, or an attractive shade of gray or tan. The old finish should, however, be removed and the wood sandpapered smooth before any paint is applied. The bed is the most important piece of furniture in the room. About one-third of every 24 hours is spent on it. For health and comfort a good bed is important, especially a good mattress and spring. A simple, palnted-metal single bed is desirable for a young girl. A slip-on cover of unbleached muslin is excellent for keeping the mattress clean. Sleeping without a pillow is often recommended, but the bed needs at least one pillow to make it look complete and this, like the mattress, should be protected by a thin, close-fitting, washable cover between the ticking and the pillow case. The sheets, blankets, and comfortables should be chosen with care. An improvised dressing table can be made by hanging a mirror over a small table. This is to be preferred to dressing tables with flouances of cretonne that collect dust. A bureau or chest of drawers is needed for storing clothing and personal belongings. Bureau and table covers should be as simple as possible and always fresh and clean. If there is room for only one chair it should be a comfortable one. A bookshelf and work table are attractive touches. If there is no closet, some sort of wardrobe is needed in which to hang clothing. A good wastebasket, one that will not tip over easily nor shed dirt, should be provided. Many girls make their own. Shades and curtains should be chosen to regulate but not shut out the light and air. Simple, durable, softly hanging material, such as white or ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION cream volle, scrim, swiss, or cheesecloth, hemmed or hemstitched, make good washable curtains which may have overcurtains of colored or figured material. The lighting is important. For lighting the bureau or dressing table an electric light on a drop cord or an inverted welsbach gas burner gives a better light if suspended over it, but if kerosene is the only source of light available a bracket lamp fastened to the wall at one side of the bureau gives the best lighting. For reading, a table lamp is most satisfactory. One or two well-chosen pictures, simply framed, add to the room, but useless ornaments only increase the work of cleaning. MILK IS IMPORTANT FOR GROWING CHILD MILK IS IMPORTANT FOR GROWING CHILD Do Not Give Even Taste of Tea or Coffee. Plenty of Fruits and Vegetables Tend to Prevent Constipation—No Fat Better Than Butter—Sweets Also Are Good. A good breakfast to start them off—milk, cornmeal mush, apple sauce. It makes them fit for school and fit for play, say some economics specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Milk, and plenty of it, makes them grow—a quart each day, if possible. Put it on their cereal and in their cups. Make it into soups, puddings, or custards for them. Whole milk is best, of course, but skim milk is good if there is a little butter in their meats. Cottage cheese is good, too. No coffee or tea—not even a taste. Leave them for the grownups. Milk, cocoa, not too strong, and fruit juices are the drinks for children, and plenty of water always. Fruit they enjoy, and they need it, too—baked apples, apple sauce, thoroughly ripe bananas, prunes, oranges, etc. Give them vegetables, fresh or canned. Plenty of fruits and vegetables tend to prevent constipation. Use proper food and do not depend upon laxatives. The youngsters can't be well unless the bowels move regularly. Don't let them hurry off in the morning without attending to this duty. Other foods a child needs: Good bread, whole-wheat bread, corn bread, well-cooked oatmeal, corn meal, and rice are all excellent for children. They help make strong boys and girls. Fats they must have, too. None is better than butter. Besides the butter on their bread, do not overlook the fat on meats, or in gravies and other food. An egg is good, too, or they may have a little meat or fish, but they do not need much. Sweets are good for them—the right ones at the right time. Dates, stewed fruits, simple puddings, and sugar cookies are especially good. Give sweets at meal time. Between meals let them have bread and butter, a cracker or fruit. They won't spoil the appetite, and sweets will. HOME-MADE OILS FOR FLOORS Boiled Linseed Oil Thinned With Turpentine Is Most Excellent—Another Formula. One part boiled linseed oil thinned with three parts turpentine makes an excellent floor oil, the United States Department of Agriculture finds, while one part light motor or engine oil combined with four parts kerosene gives results similar to commercial kinds. The motor oil recommended must not be confused with the heavy, less highly refined kinds that contain dark sediment.

MORE LAMB AND MUTTON. Those who object to mutton (which is so popular in England) do not object to the nicely roasted joint or leg of lamb if it is properly killed and cared for. The skin should always be removed. Do not touch the meat after handling the skin. The wool grows on the skin and the oil from the wool gives the meat the objectionable flavor. Roast Leg of Lamb. joint or leg of lamb if it is properly killed and cared for. The skin should always be removed. Do not touch the meat after handling the skin. The wool grows on the skin and the oil from the wool gives the meat the objectionable flavor. Roast Leg of Lamb. Rub salt, pepper and onion with any sweet fat all over the meat. Place in a roasting pan and sear it well in a hot oven. Now add one-half cupful of water, one cupful of tomato or two sliced fresh ones, one onion and six or eight peeled potatoes around the leg of lamb. Roast in a hot oven and serve very hot with a gravy made from the liquor in the pan. Mint sauce may be served with it if desired. Mutton Stew.—Take a neck piece and put on to cook in boiling water with a small onion. Simmer until tender, then add a can of peas, thicken the gravy and serve the peas and gravy poured around the meat. Season well with salt and pepper while cooking. Mutton en Casserole.—Brown a pound or less of mutton cut from the shoulder, cut in serving sized pieces. When well browned season with salt, pepper and dredge with flour. Add one cupful or more of carrots, a cupful of peas, one onion and place in a casserole to bake for two or three hours. Serve from the casserole. Barbecued Lamb.—Cut cold rop lamb in slices and reheat them in the following sauce: Two tablespoonfuls of butter, one-half tablespoonful of vinegar, one-third cupful of currant jelly and one-fourth teaspoonful of mustard. Cook until the lamb is well heated and flavored. Lamb Patties.—Grind meat from the shoulder, season, form into small patties, wrap each in a strip of bacon, fastening with a toothpick. Fry until well browned in a hot frying pan and serve with the pan gravy. Softly the evening came. The sun from the western horizon Seemed all on fire at the touch, and melted and mingled together. After you have enjoyed Hubbard squash, baked and steamed and mashed, the following dish will be worth while trying: Pumpkin Souffled Squash.—Take a medium sized Hubbard squash, remove the seeds and the stringy portion and remove the rind. Place in a steamer and cook over boiling water until tender, then mash and season to taste with salt, pepper and butter. To two cupfuls of the mashed squash add gradually one cupful of cream and when well mixed, the yolks of two well-beaten eggs. Mix well, then fold in the whites of the eggs beaten stiff. Pour into a buttered baking dish and bake in a moderate oven until firm. Serve at once. Bread Sponge Cake.—Take one and one-half cupfuls of sugar, three-fourths of a cupful of lard or any sweet fat, two well-beaten eggs, one-fourth of a cupful of sweet milk, two cupfuls of bread sponge, three cupfuls of flour and one teaspoonful of soda. Add spices, raisins and a few nuts if liked. Mix well and when risen bake. Stuffed Quinces.—Peel and core six quinces and place them in a baking dish with one cupful each of sugar and water: Fill the cavities with chopped nuts and raisins, cover and bake until tender; set away to cool. Serve with cream. Golden Fleece.—Break in bits and melt in a frying pan one-half pound of cheese, adding one cupful of cream and a dash of cayenne. When smooth break over this mixture five fresh eggs. cover for two minutes; when the white is set, remove the cover, add salt and beat the mass briskly with a large spoon for a few minutes. It will rise in a yellow foam. Serve on buttered crackers or toast. Peanut Butter Fudge.—Take two cupfuls of confectioner's sugar, one-half cupful of sweet milk, four tablespoonfuls of peanut butter; boil five minutes, stir until it thickens, pour into buttered pan and cut in squares. Hallbut Salad.—Place flaked hallbut (smoked) on a bed of lettuce. Pound the yolk of a hard-cooked egg and three sardines to a paste, removing the skin and bones. Mix this paste with boiled dressing or mayonnaise and pour over the fish. Garnish with overlapping slices of lemon.

In these interesting semi-fur wraps, fashion pilots along a course which is mapped through a maze of thrilling ideas. There is, for instance, the latest fur collar. Fashion prefers that it shall be of fur on both sides, and it often is of tremendous size. It either rolls or stands high, as it shelters the throat in its furry depth. Then there is the new broad fur cuff. At times, it forms almost half the sleeve. These wraps are of wondrous cloth, and with their accompaniment of fur, all but take precedence over the wrap entirely of fur. One of the elegant THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THE FASHION WEEK T Bespeak Style Distinction. new weaves, with that deep soft pile, which is the great charm of this season's materials, is called panverlaire. It looks almost like velvet but is strictly all wool. The plieturesque cavailier cape, which is really more for effect, although it does in a measure add to the warmth, is inspired by the romantic styles, "when knighthood was in flower." These extra little capes fall to the back, just as you see in the embroidered and fur trimmed wrap above. The cape part is bordered with Hudson seal to match the large collar, as shown in the illustration. The fur shoulder cape idea is cleverly introduced into the dolman—like Expresses Very expresses Very Poetry of Dress THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIES the wrap shown to right above. This is an idea very often noted in the newer modes. Moleskin with taupe cloth forms this handsome semi-fur wrap. Very new indeed is the reversible wrap, one side being of cloth or velvet and the other fur. Black velours circular capes, full length, are lined with squirrel.
