LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY EMANCIPATION DAY AT HAMPTON INSTITUTE "New Day Is Dawning in Race Relations," Declares Dr. J. E. Shepard Dr. James E. Gregg Says "Hampton Belongs to the Colored People." VOL. XXVIII. EMANCIPATION DAY AT HA "New Day Is Dawning clares Dr. J. NEGROES MAI Dr. James E. Gregg Says Colored HAMPTON, VA., Jan. 14.—Two thousand colored men, women and children of the Lower Peninsula of Virginia celebrated the fifty-ninth anniversary of Emancipation day by holding public exercises in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, under the auspices of the Elizabeth City County Emancipation Association, of which C. H. Henderson is president. Dr. James E. Gregg, in his address of welcome, declared that it was appropriate to link up the thought of freedom with the thought of education. "A school," he said, "is a peculiarly appropriate place for the commemoration of the end of slavery and the beginning of full legal freedom—intellectual freedom, deliverance from the bondage of superstition and ignorance; moral freedom, deliverance from al the habits which enchain and enslave a man and keep him from being his best and truest self." Doctor Gregg added: "Hampton Institute belongs to the colored people. It is devoted to serving them and to serving the young people of the Indian race. All that Hampton has is given freely for the enrichment and the upbuilding of its young men and women and through them to the blessing of the races which they represent." COMMUNITY CENTER WILL BE BOUGHT. Major Allen Washington, commandant of cadets at Hampton Institute, in introducing the speaker of the day, Dr. James E. Shepard, president of the National Training School at Durham, N. C., urged the colored people to purchase and support the local community center, so that their boys and girls may have a place for wholesome recreation. Major Washington impressed upon his hearers the importance of present action. He declared that procrastination would be a great calamity to the community as it would mean the loss of a community center three times as valuable as the price which the colored people are called on to pay. J. M. Pollard of the National Headquarters of Community Service, Inc., made an appeal to the people to contribute to the fund for the purchase of the local Hampton community house. He referred to the work of Ohio colored people: in Dayton a population of 9,000 recently gave $15,000 for a community center; in Cleveland, 35,000 gave $40,000; and in Columbus, colored people gave $18,000. WORTH-WHILE PROGRAM. The Emancipation day program included singing of "America" by the audience; invocation by Rev. J. T. Johnson of Hampton; "Oh, Freedom," sung by the audience; reading of the Emancipation Proclamation by Miss Lucy C. Barrow of Phoebus; address, "The Essentials of a Democracy," by Arthur P. Davis, a Hampton Institute student, emphasizing "respect for law, education and intelligence, physical and moral courage, deep spiritual life and high Christian ideals, which are possessed by Negroes;" "Soldiers of Freedom," Hampton Glee Club; "Negro National Hymn," words by James Weldon Johnson and music by Rosamond Johnson, sung by Phoebus Glee Club; and benediction, Rev. John H. Gray of Hampton. TRIBUTE TO HAMPTON INSTITUTE. Doctor Shepard, in his address on the "Possibilities and Responsibilities State Hist & Nut Hist Society State House of American Citizenship," paid a tribute to Gen. S. C. Armstrong, who founded Hampton Institute, to Dr. H. B. Frissell, his successor, and to the present principal. Doctor Shepard's mother was a product of Hampton Institute. "The part that Hampton Institute has played in all phases of American life for the perpetuation of the spirit of free institutions," declared Doctor Shepard, "is convincing proof of the fact that not a dollar which has been spent for or on the institution has been wasted, but that it will repay to the donors more than a thousandfold. The millions of dollars which have already been expended for its existence would not have been wasted, if it had turned out only Booker T. Washington, who put a new emphasis and therefore a new glory upon labor. It has also produced Dr. Robert R. Moton, a safe, conservative, strong friend and counsellor. NEGROES MAKE PROGRAM "Negroes in the United States today have 600,000 homes, and 260,000 farms valued at $750,000,000; operate seventy-four banks, two fire insurance companies, and a number of industrial life insurance companies. Negroes have over 50,000 business establishments and have accumulated wealth to the amount of $1,200,000,000. They have 35,000 school teachers and over 2,000,000 children attending public schools. Seven hundred young colored men and women have graduated from our highest colleges and universities. Negroes have 43,000 churches and church property valued at more than $88,000,000. These figures show the possibilities of the race in America. NEW DAY IS DAWNING. "I am not here to say that the race has had a fair show in the race of life; but there is growing up in the Southland a large group of people who are seeking to give to the race a larger share of the blessings of life and of the rights of life—the things to which they are entitled and which they will eventually come into, if they patiently wait and work and acquire education and serve God as their fathers did. Let us encourage this feeling of love. Men and women, whatever the differences have been, whatever the prejudices or the limitations or heartaches or injustices, teach them to love, and the love which you teach will some day come back to you. Let us not encourage any feeling of resentment or any feeling of suspicion, for there is growing up in the Southland and in the Northland and in the East and inthe West a large group of Christian white men and women who know that the Negro has not had a chance and who are determined to give to the Negro race a chance to advance." HAMPTON SENIORS UNVEIL CLASS MOTTO. Hampton, Va., Jan. —Hampton Institute seniors unveiled their class motto, "Service the Alm of Our Preparation," on the morning of Emancipation day. William M. Hubbard of Richmond, Va., class president, used the class motto as the text for his address to the seniors, the Hampton Institute student body, and the Hampton staff of workers. Dr. James E. Gregg declared that the word "service" expresses the thought which is in many minds and is receiving general attention. "The world," he said, "cannot go on upon any principle of selfish gain. It blocks the wheels, it clogs the machinery, it tangles up the affairs of nations, when that motive is allowed to become dormant." ABLE PEOPLE'S PA ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, Report of the Special Committee of the National Negro Press Association Appropriated by the Executive Committee at the Meeting of the Washington Session Held in the Whitelaw Hotel, Washington, D. C., December 20, 1921. Mr. Chairman of the Committee: We, your committee, beg leave to report the following: We realize the fact that today the American people are facing a condition and not a theory.' We emerged from a World's war with glorious achievements attributed to the heroic deeds of valor by members of our race, who proved themselves to be 100 per cent Americans, making true that oft-repeated assertion that Negro blood has been spilled in every conflict where the Stars and Stripes were interested, from the Boston Back Bay to the German's Rhine. We can truly claim that we are in part responsible for the effort to make the world safe for democracy and breaking the backbone of Germany's autocracy. We believe that a new day is dawning for the darker races of the world. With modesty we lay claim also to contributing largely to the overwhelming success of the Republican party at the polls last November, the greatest victory achieved by any political organization, and we are not slow to call attention to these facts to the American people. We call upon the American Negro to exercise more clearly and definitely racial solidarity. We are exponents of the principles enunciated by the Apostle in the Bible when he declared, "Now abideth Faith, Hope and Charity." We admonish the American people and especially the American Negro to exercise more love for his brother, believing as we do that Charity begins at home before it can spread abroad. We most respectfully recommend the following: 1. That the Vigilance Committee plan of the Executive Committee be studied and practiced by the members of the National Negro Press Association, and we believe in it there is a cure for all ills. 2. That with said co-operation we can stimulate race pride, built bigger business and gain our place in the sun. 3. The committee, believing that our race is not ungrateful, cheerfully recommends the resolutions commending Japan and France hereto attached. The following are the resolutions: We heartily commend Japan as the exponent of the words of the Holy Writ, that out of one blood God created all nations to dwell upon the face of the earth, that God is our Father and man is our brother. We further commend the Republic of France for the just recognition of her colonial troops, and for not overlooking the yeoman service rendered by our boys over there, demonstrating the fact that she is a humane nation dedicated to the spirit of fair play. In accordance with the recommendation of the National Negro Press Association, the Executive Committee authorized the call of the annual convention of the National Negro Press Association to be held in Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, during the month of April, the exact date to be announced as soon as the entertainment committee of Tuskegee Institute makes its report, at which time will be the unveiling of the monument of the late founder and principal, Booker T. Washington. Advancement Association Makes 12th Annual Report for 1921 Fought Ku Klux Klan and Mob Spirit. AANTL-LYNCHING laws enacted in two states during 1921, are announced in the twelfth annual report of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, made public today. One of the laws was enacted in West Virginia and the other in Minnesota. The Minnesota law makes recoverable from a county in which lynching occurs, the sum of $7,500, and renders officers, permitting prisoners to be lynched, liable to removal by the governor of the state. The association further announced that the sum of $33,928.56 had been spent in its ten-year fight against lynching in the United States and that in the course of this fight 2,000 public meetings had been held, attended by more than 3,000,000 persons. According to the association's report, a number of extraditions of Negroes from northern to southern states have been prevented during the year, on the ground that the colored prisoners might be lynched or would not be given fair trials if returned to southern jurisdictions. One case mentioned is that of Thomas Ray, whose extradition to Georgia was refused by Governor Groesbeck of Michigan after representations had been made by attorneys for the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Extradition of one colored man, Will Whitfield, from New York to North Carolina, is still being fought by the association. Extradition of Ed Knox, from Charleston, West Virginia, to Tennessee was prevented when it was proved that one man had previously been lynched in the belief that he was the Ed Knox in question, and it was shown he was innocent of the crime charged. The report also states that the secretary of the association, James Weldon Johnson, repeatedly called upon President Harding who was prevailed upon to incorporate an appeal for the ending of lynching in his message of April 12. In the course of the fight conducted by the association against the Ku Klux Klan, the report states, the showing of "The Birth of a Nation" film has been stopped in California, was discontinued in Boston by order of the mayor, and the right of colored people to picket theatres in which the film was shown in New York was vindicated in court. Through its countrywide membership the association collected facts about the Ku Klux Klan, many of which were turned over to the New York World for use in its expose of the Klan's aims and methods. Other activities of the association included; continued appeals for the withdrawal of marines from the black republic of Haiti; legal defense of colored farmers condemned to death for their participation in the Arkansas riots of 1919, carrying the cases to the Supreme Court of the United States; investigation and publication of the facts surrounding the Tulsa, Oklahoma, riot in which 15,000 colored citizens lost their homes by fire. For the physical aid and legal defense of colored citizens of Tulsa, the association collected and administered a fund of $3,500. Will Kentucky Disfranchise Race? Kentucky Legislature in Session Threatens Negro Disfranchisement. Louisville Democrats, it is said, are preparing to prove that they were not speaking idly after their recent defeat at the polls when they announced their intention to back statutes that would deprive Louisville Republicans of the obvious advantage of 27,000 Negro votes cast as with one voice. They are preparing a number of bills which will be offered by the Louisville delegation. The one to amend the election law is expected to put a premium upon intelligent voting, adopting certain of the features of new voting laws of other states. As the recent report of the Educational Survey shows Kentucky ranks forty-third in educational development among the states, may take more than laws to make for intelligent voting. The election would divide the candidates into five general classifications: magisterial, legislative, financial, executive and judicial. On each fifty ballots the order of listing the names it to be changed. A penalty is provided in the bill for any election officer who informs any voter of the political affiliation of a candidate. The emblem, of course, is not to appear on the ballot. A companion measure to this which is being prepared is the act which provides for permanent registration of inhabitants of cities. Negroes in Florida in 1528 Two Africans Were Members of Narvaez' Expedition of That Year, According to History. The first record of Negro slaves within the present boundaries of the United States is found in an account of the Spanish expedition to Narvaez to Florida in 1528, which included two Negroes. But the Negro was not in Florida to stay until 1565, when a few landed with Memedez' colonists. It is believed the Spaniards had Negroes with them in their unfortunate colony of San Miguel de Gualdape in 1526, which J. J. Shea locates in the neighborhood of Jamestown, Va. H. H. Bancroft, in his "Arizona and New Mexico," makes it clear the Negro was in some of the early exploration and missionary parties to that territory. Doubtless the Negroes continued in the province until the Spaniards were driven out in 1860. ("Introduction of Negroes Into the United States," by C. A. Stakely, in Magazine of American History, November, 1801.) The Treasurer, owned by the Earl of Warwick, and a Dutch vessel brought slaves to Jamestown in 1619. The Treasurer is supposed to be the first slaver fitted out in America. The first American-built slaver was the ship Desire, a vessel of 120 tons, built at Marblehead in 1636. ("The American Slave Trade," by J. R. Spears.) Bishop Flipper Is Bank's Head Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 2.—At a meeting of the directors of the Atlanta Savings Bank last Friday night, Bishop J. S. Flipper was elected president; B. J. Davis, vice president, and W. S. Cannon, third vice president of the institution. Bishop Flipper is head of the African Methodist Church in Georgia. NO 14 Problems of Urban Negro Welfare The Negro urban population of the United States is now, in round numbers, about 3,500,000, and even more when towns and villages of less than 2,500 inhabitants are included; that is, one-third of the Negroes of the United States are now living in villages, town and cities. The larger part of the increase in Negro urban population has been due to migration. In the past five years some 500,000 Negroes have moved from rural districts into the towns and cities. A large proportion, therefore, of the Negro population is new to city conditions. It is this more or less sudden change from rural to urban conditions that gives rise to the many problems of Negro urban welfare with which we are now confronted. This movement from rural to urban centers entails a tremendous cost of life, health, and morals. Over against these losses we are of course able to place a great many gains. There is a distinct advantage in having a large number of Negroes living in urban centers. It is here that group leadership is developed. It is a distinct advantage to have a large number of Negroes living in cities. It enables them to diversify their occupations, and to have all of the activities—industrial, personal, professional, and trading—that tend to make a normal and well-rounded group. The real question after all is not so much the cost of the change from rural to urban life as it is how this cost can be reduced. The real function of the increasing number of welfare workers among urban Negroes is to assist in helping reduce this cost by indicating the ways in which the problems of employment, family life, crime, poverty, health, sanitation, recreation and education can be handled so that the general welfare of the Negroes will be promoted in the best way.—Monroe N. Work in the Southern Workman. Debs Makes Wonderful Appeal to the Blacks Engene V. Debs, one-time Socialist candidate for President of the United States, who has been released from the federal penitentiary at Atlanta, where he was sentenced because he refused to retract a statement made during the heat of campaign and during war time concerning the policies of Woodrow Wilson, has made a decided hit with the colored population of the country. While in prison, Debs was known as the "guardian" of the colored inmates. He won their hearts, one and all. Among the whites he was the beloved prisoner, and among the colored the best beloved. The whole body of hardened men wept as the Socialist took his leave of them. Sam Moore, a colored man, who has been in the Atlanta prison for forty years for a murder committed in his youth, was the last to bid Debs good-bye. Moore and Debs struck up a firm and solid friendship during the incarceration. Their parting was most touching. As Debs was about to leave the prison, when all restrictions had been thrown aside and thousands of inmates were at the windows to wave him good-bye, Debs turned with outstretched arms to his colored prison pal. The men embraced and Debs kissed the Negro, while tears fell from the eyes of both. "Sam Moore deserves to be out more than I do," said Debs later, "I had a chance when I was young. He never had." Continuing, Debs said: Contributing, Bess said, "I was never a prisoner in all the three years I spent in Atlanta. My body was locked up, but they could never put their hands on what was inside of me. Some day brutal governments will learn that they cannot lock up a man's spirit." FOREIGN Marquis Okuma, former premier of Japan, is dead. For several days he had been lying between life and death, and during part of that time his coma was so intense that his death was announced several days ago. In a bloody fight between Fascist and Communists at Berglola, near Carrara, Italy, three persons were killed and a dozen badly wounded, says a Times dispatch from Milan. Carbineers who intervened were fired upon by the riflemen of both factions. Marquis Okuma, former premier of Japan, is dead, according to a cable message received by the Nippu Jilj, a Japanese vernacular newspaper in Honolulu, from Tokio. The Mikade conferred certain decorations on Okuma posthumously, the cable message said. A young woman in Paris jumped to her death from the top of the Arc de Triomphe. Her body fell among a crowd of mourners who were carrying flowers to decorate the grave of the "unknown soldier." The woman had removed from her clothing all identification marks. Ellseo Plo Rodriguez, when he was rounded up in a police raid on the begging pests of Madrid, proved to be a capitalist with $30,000 to his name in a provincial bank, while he also possesses a farm with thirty cows. This fortune is the result of many years of mendicancy. Official Prussian crime statistics for 1921 made public in Berlin show that 3.2 per cent of the population were charged with infractions of the penal code. Of those so charged 25 per cent were convicted. In the previous year 2 per cent of the population were charged with infractions. A young woman recently jumped to her death from the top of the Arc de Triomphe, Paris. Her body fell among a crowd of mourners who were carrying flowers to decorate the grave of the "unknown soldier." The woman had removed from her clothing all identification marks. America is given full credit for her part in the World War in a book devoted to the struggle written by Adolfer Agrolo of Montevideo. One of the prominent French commanders quoted in the book is General Sarrail. "The Americans won the war," he is quoted as declaring. "Had the United States not intervened in 1917, we would have been lost." Joseph Oliver, 70 years old, grand sire of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, died at Toronto, Ont., after an illness of three months. He was a member of the Odd Fellows for many years and was head of the grand lodge in Canada before being chosen to the highest office in the order in North America. He also was a past master of the Masonic fraternity. GENERAL Four children were instantly killed and a score seriously injured when a Pennsylvania fast freight crashed into a bus carrying the children to school, three miles east of Van Wert, Ohio. The name of Smith leads all other names in the enrollment of the Columbia University, it is shown by the 1922 catalog of the university. The Smith family has 114 tons and daughters attending Columbia this winter, and the next highest number of any tribe is Miller, represented by seventy-four members. Thomas Cosgrove and Charles Borshel, Jr., both of Iowa Falls, Iowa, were found asphyxiated in a private garage. When found their car was still running. The supposition is that they drove into the garage, closed the door and tarried a few minutes to visit and were overcome by the fumes from the exhaust. Foreign ships are carrying the bulk of the cargo between this country and the east coast of South America and are increasing their proportion, although American ships are making a better showing on the routes to and from the west coast of that continent, according to a survey issued by the Commerce Department. Crime judged by the number of prisoners sent to state institutions has increased during the last year in New York, according to a report made public at Ossining, N. Y., by John Kennedy, chairman of the State Prison Commission. More prisoners were put to death and there was a great increase in drug addicts admitted. Two unidentified negroes in New York held up Jacob Belkin, a real estate operator, and Charles Johnson, a negro janitor who accompanied Belkin, shooting and killing Johnson when he refused to obey an order to "hold up your hands and hand over your cash." Belkin told the police he obeyed the bandits's command and was robbed of $800 in cash. Charles Garland, who more than a year ago announced his refusal to accept a legacy of $1,000,000 willed to him by his father, the late James A. Garland of Boston, has reconsidered his decision and will accept the money, according to the Boston Post. His brother, Hamilton, who likewise declined a legacy of equal proportions, has accepted his share of the family fortune, the Post declares. L. V. W. Brown, who was inducted into office as mayor of Riverside, Cal., was instantly killed in an automobile accident near Upland, eighteen miles northwest of three one hour later. His secretary, Miss Monica Elvarson of Phoenix, Ariz., and the mayor's sister, also were in the accident, but escaped injury. Two hundred cocoanuts which contained not their own natural milk, but a pint each of strong Jamaica rum were seized by federal agents at a Minneapolis railroad station. Each cocoanut was plugged with a cork. AN EPITOME OF LATE LIVE NEWS CONDENSED RECORD OF THE PROGRESS OF EVENTS AT HOME AND ABROAD.

Dissatisfied with the food served to them recently at the evening meal a number of inmates of the Utah state prison at Salt Lake staged a miniature rebellion in the prison dining room, overturning several tables loaded with food and later yelling and pounding on their cell doors after they had been locked up by Warden James Devine. The menu consisted of chili beans and bread and tea, and the recalcitrants not only spoiled their own meal, but caused many others to go to bed hungry. WASHINGTON The national agricultural conference suggested by President Harding has been called by Secretary of Agriculture Wallace to begin in Washington, Monday, Jan. 23.

The nautical school for the training of former service men for the American merchant marine, to be established by the veterans' bureau, will be put at some "logical place" on the Atlantic coast, Director Forbes has announced. A new white, hullless oat that threshes out like wheat and weighs approximately sixty pounds to the bushel instead of forty-five pounds, is one of the chief new horticultural productions of Luther Burbank, plant wizard, at San Jose, Calif. Postmaster General Hays in a letter to Senator Nelson of Minnesota, chairman of the Senate judiciary committee, came out squarely in opposition to a bill recently passed in the House which would make it an offense for newspapers to publish racing news. The United States Supreme Court held invalid the North Dakota state capital stock tax, as applied to railroads doing business in the state. The lower courts had upheld the tax but its invalidity had been contested by James C. Davis, director general of railroads; the Northern Pacific railway and other roads, on the ground that the law violated the commerce clause of the federal constitution. Per capita circulation of money in the United States declined $6.09 during the last year, according to a statement issued by the treasury.

A STUDY IN CRIME. by paper on Monday carried a story, being overrun by Mexicans; that the early infested by a criminal element from near-by beet fields. In it is quoted as having charged most of the Mexican element. In many murders, hold-ups and thievery so far of police should be able to speak to the does. But our point is this: the new racial problem can be founded upon economic policy put in vogue and railroad systems. An alien complete except in isolated instances, one of our citizens more substantial forced idleness. Strictly speaking, over at present is no direct fault on a system absolutely destructive if fostered and encouraged in the procedure and Denver is now reaping daily corporations in times of industry not necessarily local, nor particuliar. It is high time that industrial and Americanism be adopted in the development be offered those who know and display an inherent love and re An afternoon daily paper on Monday carried a story to the effect that the city was being overrun by Mexicans; that the lower districts of Denver were fairly infested by a criminal element of this race, who are now flocking to the city from near-by beet fields. In the article referred to the chief of police is quoted as having charged most of the crimes recently committed in Denver to the Mexican element. In main he holds them responsible for the murders, hold-ups and thievery so prevalent in our city just now. The chief of police should be able to speak with authority on this subject, and perhaps he does. But our point is this: Whatever evil results may arise from this new racial problem can be found wholly chargeable to a narrow, short-sighted economic policy put in vogue some years ago by many large industries and railroad systems. An alien people whose Americanization is never complete except in isolated instances, are often given employment when those of our citizens more substantial taxpayers and voters, must suffer from enforced idleness. Strictly speaking, the condition being complained of in Denver at present is no direct fault of the Mexican people, but is the fault of a system absolutely destructive of a more advanced American citizenship, if fostered and encouraged in the future as in the past. It is a dangerous procedure and Denver is now reaping the whirlwind sowed by the wind of greedy corporations in times of industrial prosperity. And in this the trouble is not necessarily local, nor particularly confined to any one foreign element. It is high time that industrial and educational policies along the line of sane Americanism be adopted in this country and that opportunity and development be offered those who know our country, speak the one language and display an inherent love and reverence for its institutions. DYER BILL STEAMING AHEAD. Ten days ago it looked as though now dear to the heart of every death in the committee rooms of look is far different. Our negro lea- ment and so much pressure has been the Republican majority took on a need to see the Dyer bill pass the House days. Should that be the case the ming the present session of Congress, san and sectional fights witnessed in our ten years fight against the most ever afflicted a free government.

Our negro leaders never gave up pressure has been brought to bear; unity took on a new lease of life and pass the House of Representatives; we the case the measure is certain in favor of Congress. This will end all rights witnessed in Congress in many against the most iniquitous evil and government. And though the Society and abusive fight against the carouse racial feeling of the bitter distortion of cold facts as well as all proclaim to be against mob is worthy that steeped in sin and representatives will go so far as aera of lawlessness and crime, the one state. Again it may be merely of mention that members of C.C. when the question of lynching is up is the bloodiest and most shameless possibly have instilled a degree of natives sufficient at least to prove the present outlook, the battle is let up on our part. Denver has to do more. The greatest possible man be the defeat of the Dyer bill. My piece of legislation that has been consideration notice is served on the will not tolerate the perpetuation of United States up to the scorn and South squirms and complains as not plea. "Let us alone and we will has this country listened to that we we had foistered upon Jim C. usually vicious measures. No Republic to sleep at this time. It is our first steps we have taken. TEN days ago it looked as though the Dyer anti-lynching bill, a measure now dear to the heart of every American negro, was going to sleep unto death in the committee rooms of the National Capitol. Today the outlook is far different. Our negro leaders never gave up the fight for a moment and so much pressure has been brought to bear upon Congress that the Republican majority took on a new lease of life and we confidently look to see the Dyer bill pass the House of Representatives within the next ten days. Should that be the case the measure is certain to become a law during the present session of Congress. This will end one of the biterest partisan and sectional fights witnessed in Congress in many years; this will end our ten years fight against the most iniquitous evil and damnable curse that ever afflicted a free government. And though the South is making its accustomed recriminatory and abusive fight against the bill, and seeking by every foul means to arouse racial feeling of the bitteres type, by misrepresentation and wilful distortion of cold facts as well as prejudicial appeals to the passions, still all proclaim to be against mob murder and lynching. It is more than noteworthy that steeped in sin and deviltry as the South may be, none of its representatives will go so far as to champion in the halls of Congress an era of lawlessness and crime, though it may flourish unhindered in his home state. Again it may be merely a coincident but none the less a worthy of mention that members of Congress from Georgia are decidedly quiet when the question of lynching is up for discussion. The fact that Georgia has the bloodiest and most shameless record of any state in the Union, may possibly have instilled a degree of decency within the heart of its representatives sufficient at least to provoke a respectable silence. But hopeful as the present outlook, the battle is not definitely won and there can be no let up on our part. Denver has already done a noble part and is willing to do more. The greatest possible misfortune that could befall our race would be the defeat of the Dyer bill. It is the most important and far reaching piece of legislation that has been before Congress for fifty years. By its consideration notice is served on the South that the conscience of the nation will not tolerate the perpetuation of an abuse and crime that is holding the United States up to the scorn and contumely of every civilized nation. The South squirms and complains as might be expected and offers up the worn out plea, 'Let us alone and we will work this problem out.' Too long already has this country listened to that plea. By its tacit acceptance some years we had foistered upon Jim Crow law, grandfather clauses and other equally vicious measures. No Republican congressman is going to be permitted to sleep at this time. It is our fight and we have no apologies to offer any steps we have taken. Royall Puts Hat in Ring for Recorder Job New York, Jan. 6.—Still another candidate in quest of the job for which the Senate turned down Link Johnson appeared in the field last week. He is John M. Royall, former president of the United Civic League, politician, real estate dealer and erstwhile managing editor of the former New York Dispatch. Royall's boom for recorder of deeds was launched via the petition method, with the endorsement of the United Civic League, the Equity Congress, the New Era Progressive Association and the Robert Small Republican Club. To a Defender representative the politician explained that he sought the appointment because it was the following out of a long standing principle of his that our people should select their own representatives. The move, at any rate, so many think, will put a complete damper on the efforts of Fred R Moore of this city to land. The Royall petitions received a cordial reception from the people. Included in the latest bit of gossip anent the much sought after appointment was the announcement last week that Clarence Matthews of Boston had resigned his position as assistant chief counsel to the U. N. I. A. Matthews' chances for the appointment to the recordership are said to be brighter than those of all others. --- 15 cents per line.

Congressman Ansorge Will Fight Discrimination in Capitol Restaurant The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City, today made public a letter from Representative Martin C. Ansorge of the Twenty-first District, New York, asserting that if any attempt were made to exclude colored people from the restaurant of the House of Representatives in Washington, he would fight it. The letter was addressed to James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Association and concludes with a reference to Mr. Johnson's "strenuous activity" in pressing the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill. "I cannot believe," writes Representative Ansorge, "that any assurances have been given to Mr. Aswell as stated in the report. However, just so soon as I return to Washington, I shall investigate this matter and advise you. "I am quite certain that no such rule as requested by Representative Aswell of Louisiana will be made during a Republican administration. If any such rule is made, I shall fight with you to have it abrogated. "I am glad to have been able to cooperate with you in connection with your strenuous activity in favor of the Anti-Lynching bill." CHEYENNE WYO. NEWS Mrs. G.

WOODLAND, CAILF., NEWS Christmas holidays are now over and the year of 1921 has passed, and we have now entered into a new year. Many that started out in the beginning of the year 1921 were not able to complete the year. Likewise will the year of 1922 be. We had a heavy rainfall Christmas eve and Christmas day, but in spite of the heavy rain Christmas eve the Second Baptist Sunday School had a large attendance at their Xmas exercises and Xmas tree. Every one that was on the program was at his post. The boys and girls were at their best. The writer wishes to compliment Mesdames J. T. Muse and O. H. Earl for the lovely way they had the children trained for this occasion. Superintendent W. M. Keith had a beautiful Xmas tree arranged with all kinds of presents for the kiddies. Mr. L. O. Gaither acted as Santa Claus and played his part well. Rev. Muse was presented with a beautiful suit of clothes from his deacons and trustee board, and the reverend is still relicoking over it. There were great services on Christmas day at the Second Baptist Church. At the morning worship a lovely sermon and baptismal service. In the evening another glorious meeting. Sunday, New Year's day, Rev. Muse had what is known as roll-call and home-coming day for every member of the church. The church clerk, Mrs. O. H. Earl, as she called the roll, those present answered with brief testimonies, those that could not be present sent in verses from the Bible which were read by the clerk when their names were called. Sunday night roll call continued. At this service Pastor Muse made a report of his two years' work, Jan. 1, 1920, to Dec. 31, 1921. In this report it showed that he had added to the membership of the church 26; 12 by baptism, 2 by letter, 7 by restoration, and 5 by experience. Improvement of church property, $830.02; money raised, $4,591.22; pledges on the New World Movement, $2,922.60. The church record shows that the past two years is the best record that the church has ever made in the history of the church in two succeeding years. At the conclusion of his report the communion of the Lord's Supper was served. Entertainers During the Christmas Holidays. Mesdames M. F. and L. O. Gaither, mother and daughter-in-law, entertained at a Xmas dinner Mr. and Mrs. Scraggs of Sacramento; Mrs. E. L. Bardain, Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Eearl and family, L. Alexander and Mr. and Mrs. Ed.

Nice weather is with us again, although we have had a severe spell since our last writing, but Boulder feels very greatly blessed this winter with good weather. Rev, Carter spoke from the third chapter of Gen. 14-19 verses. Sunday night his subject was "To Be or Not to Be." He stated to his audience it was a great warfare to rise above the common level and that we should struggle, labor and fight to be what God intended us to be, for God wanted the intellect, strength and entire man for his service. At the Baptist Church, it being the second Sunday in the Month, the services were conducted as a song service. "The Church in the Wildwood" was the first number. "It's Me Standing in the Need of Prayer," "I Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray," "Sweeter as the Years Go By," "Do You Think I'll Make a Soldier?" "In the Garden," "Got a Home in That Rock," "Bound for the Promised Land," "Life's Railway to Heaven," "Don't Stay Away," "He Arose." Closing remarks by the pastor, Rev. Jackson.

While in the city they were the guests of Mrs. Della Jones of 2019 East Third avenue. Mrs. Jones entertained a few friends at an elaborate dinner last Sunday in their honor. CAMPBELL CHOIR REPEATS CHRISTMAS PROGRAM. Before a crowded house Sunday night the well trained choir of Campbell A. M. E. church repeated the high-class cantata rendered on Christmas morning. The choruses were well balanced and beautifully rendered, while the solos by Mrs. Moore, Messrs. Allen and Wilson deserve more than passing notice. Mrs. Ida Craig presided at the organ. NATIONAL STOCK SHOW The Sixteenth Annual National Western Stock Show which opens Saturday, January 14, promises to be the greatest exposition of its character ever held in the West. For the past few years the live stock industry was somewhat in the dumps. But today better conditions prevail and a vista of sunshine opens for the stockman that prompts a general spirit of optimism to arise. A large number of exhibits are rapidly coming and being placed, showing the unusual interest taken in the show this year. The Horse Show will of itself be a revelation. A royal galaxy of high-steppers, high-jumpers, pacers and drivers will grace the program each evening and at afternoon matinees. Manager H. L. Youngerman is a tireless worker and imparts enthusiasm wherever he goes. The COLORADO STATESMAN has always been a strong booster for the National Western Stock Show for it is one of Denver's most valued institutions. VESPER SERVICES GROW IN POPULARITY. The popular Vesper services at the Church of the Redeemer, inaugurated some months ago as an experiment, have now become a living reality that bids fair to grow in popularity as time goes on. Certainly this will be the case if the high standard set in the past is maintained throughout. The program rendered last Sunday was little short of marvelous and it is safe to say that everyone present enjoyed every feature. The address of Dr. Geo. B. Vosburgh, famed world traveler and lecturer, and the tenor solos by Mr. Shirley Liggens were supeub. A popular chord has been struck by these services and we predict large things for them in the future. ATTENTION!

The Denver Post of Thursday carried a story of how some of the Negroes of Texas who had acquired small acreages of land years ago and from which they had only been able to eke out a fare existence, are now growing wealthy on royalties paid them by Colonel Humphreys and other large oil operators in the now famous Mexia district. In this connection it is well to mention the romantic story surrounding the Hester Ross 12,000-barrel gusher that was brought in last Sunday. Hester Ross was a hard working woman of the race who owned a farm in the very heart of the rich Mexia field. It is known that at times she experienced great difficulty in making both ends meet. She met with repeated discouragements and setbacks, and many a person with a heart less brave would have forsaken the farm long ago. But it was a home for her and she held to it tenaciously through many trials. Some months ago the Western Oil Fields corporation of which our own Governor Shoup is president, leased the farm and began drilling a well which they named to Hester Ross in honor of the owner. She was to receive one-eighth of all the oil produced and today her share from the monster well brought in last Sunday is $1,650 per day. It is significant that the large wells brought in have been on land owned by Negroes, and many are reaping enormous riches as a result. One of our well-known Denver colored men holds a nice block of stock in the Western Oil Fields corporation. The Colorado Statesman wishes success to all concerned. Y. M. C. A. NOTES The Glee Club, which, on account of the illness of some of its members and the absence from the city on the part of some of the others, has not met for three weeks, met again last Thursday evening. As there are important prospects on before it, it is likely that the meetings will be regular from now on. The meeting last Sunday afternoon was one of the best for several weeks. A large number was present, and the program was interesting and full of "pep." Among some of the things the Negro hopes to obtain, Counsellor S. E. Cary spoke from the political side; George W. Gross spoke on lynching; Counsellor E. P. Blakemore spoke on forms of segregation; Prof. J. E. Ormes spoke on business, and the Rev. I. S. Wilson spoke on a greater racial unity. The meeting was intensely interesting. The Hi-Y Club had a splendid meeting on Tuesday evening. A fine program was outlined, and all the members voted to stick to it. A large meeting of the city-wide boys' work committee was also held on Wednesday evening. Another "crackerjack" of a meeting will be held again tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon. The program will be under the auspices of the various boywork committees of the city, including Boy Scouts, Olingers, Boys' Welfare League, etc. International Secretary F. H. Cheley will be the principal speaker. His subject will be, "The Men of Tomorrow." He is without doubt one of the best speakers on the subject in the city. The program will begin promptly at 4 o'clock. Everybody who is interested in seeing a better manhood is invited to attend. CITY MISSION BOARD NEWS. The board was organized recently, with the following officers: W. R. Rose, president; J. C. Jackson, vice president; Wm. Coleman, treasurer; E. H. Rose, financial secretary; Geo. W. Anderson, adviser; C. Brolls, secretary. The board has rented the church at Twenty-second and Arapahoe street. Last Sunday services were well attended, the pulpit being filled by Rev. P. P. Mellen, pastor of Mt. Pilgrim Baptist church, Raton, N. M. Dr. Mellon, an able experienced minister, preached an able sermon morning and evening to a full house. Owing to the fact that we have been wonderfully blessed, spiritually and numerically, to the extent that our membership has doubled itself since January 1, 1922. Our services for next Sunday, January 15, will be as follows: Sunday School at 9:30 a.m., preaching at 11 a.m. At 3 p.m. the members that were granted letters from the Central Baptist Church for the purpose of organizing a Missionary Baptist Church, and others that have united with us, will be organized into a Missionary Baptist Church, to be known as New Hope Baptist Church, Sunday, Jan. 15, at Twenty-second and Arapahoe street by Rev.

Revival Meetings Dr. Ernest Hall, the eloquent Georgia evangelist began the preaching service in a series of revival meetings on Wednesday, January 11. Reverend Hall is unquestionably one of the most able and forceful preachers in the race. Gifted with a natural eloquence, a sympathetic and kindly spirit, his wide learning and profound Biblical knowledge fit him with a message at once convincing and moving. The public response to his preaching was instant and the impressions thus far made indicate that Zion church and the community are already within the grip of a mighty spiritual awakening. Every man, woman and child in the community should hear him. The meetings will continue every evening at 8 o'clock, except Saturday. Members of all the churches are invited to come take a part and the general public is cordially welcomed. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO Funeral Notices JONES—Jesse W.

ROSEBA COMMUNITY County Agricultural and Home Demonstration Agents Planning a Community Program of Work With a Local Committee. (Prepared by the United States Department | ty agricultural agents dealing with A new plan for the reorganization of the extension office of the United States Department of Agriculture was explained by C. W. Pugsley, assistant secretary of agriculture, in an address before the annual convention of the Association of Land-Grant Colleges at New Orleans. The plan is a departure from the organization heretofore existing. The extension offices of the North and South were combined on October 1 by order of the secretary of agriculture, but the details were not announced until they were gone over and agreed to by the Association of Land-Grant Colleges. The new plan will permit the development of an extension program with the farm family as the unit. The old organization in the North had but three administrative divisions of extension work—one for men, another for women, and a third for boys and girls. In the southern division two administrative lines were followed—one for men and boys and another for women and girls. Must Have a Goal in Sight. "The new organization permits extension workers to focus their attention more effectively upon an agricultural program," said Mr. Pugsley. "It is necessary to have a goal in sight when we are engaged in an important piece of work if we expect to get the best results. So far as extension work is concerned, that goal should be a carefully worked-out program of rural progress. It should cover all phases of rural life. "The logical way to work out such a program in a county is to have meetings of farm bureau or other organizations composed of both men and women for the discussion of needs of all phases of rural life. A balanced extension program will be the result." "The responsibility for making a balanced county program does not end with the county meeting, however. The state has a responsibility. Its legislature has appropriated money and placed officers in charge of its expenditures. Many states have written into their laws the purposes for which the appropriations can or can not be used. It is the duty of the state officers to go over the projects of work from the standpoint of a state agricultural program. Some of these days each college of agriculture will have in its employ some individual who will give special attention to working out a unified program of agricultural progress for the state, and who will assist the counties in making their programs a part of the harmonious whole. Must Maintain Balanced Agriculture. Must Maintain Damaged Agriculture "In a society organized as ours, the final responsibility for an agricultural program cannot rest with each state. The federal government has a responsibility in the matter. This is recognized by the appropriation of the Smith-Lever and other extension funds, amounting now to about $6,750,000. The Department of Agriculture is the national agency charged with the supervision of this vast and constantly increasing fund. It has the same responsibility toward the state that the state has toward the county. "It should furnish the best information available on world conditions and should outline in a broad and general way a national agricultural program. It should look over the projects with the national program in mind, just as the state looks them over with the state programs in mind. Otherwise it will be very easy to develop an unbalanced agriculture, from which the entire nation will suffer. We have some evidence today that a nation does suffer from an unbalanced agricultural system. "In short, the responsibility of the national government is to see that the federal funds are properly spent and are accomplishing the purposes for which they were intended, rather than to dictate the details of the method of expenditure. More Home Economics Work. More Home Economics Work. "A unified extension program means more extension work among the women and girls. The plan of work which has been in vogue in most of the states has worked to the disadvantage of extension activities in home problems. When the work is divided along the lines of sex and age, as it has been during the past, that work which is most likely to increase the farmers' income will receive the most attention. The home and social features of a program of rural progress are sure to be at a disadvantage under such a plan. "In most states there are now coun- ty agricultural agents dealing with production problems; there are home demonstration agents dealing with home economics problems; there are boys and girls' club agents dealing with junior problems. Each of these lines of work is in charge of a state leader at a college of agriculture. Each has also been in charge of a separate administrative division at the Washington office. This has made a line of cleavage from one end to the other, in spite of the efforts of extension directors and division chiefs to harmonize. The inevitable result has been an unbalanced program. "If a unified extension program can be developed, however, this difficulty can be overcome. Production and marketing of crops are only two steps in the program of rural progress. If that is the only object we have in mind in extension work, we are not worthy of a place in the great extension organization. It is as important to see that the money which is made by an economical program of production and marketing is properly spent as it is to make the money in the first place. If we do not carry our program far enough to aid farm families to secure better homes and better social life in our rural communities, we have indeed fallen far short of the possibilities confronting us. Plan Program for Entire Family. "We all need to keep constantly in our minds a program which is planned for the entire family. Then we all need to work for the accomplishment of that program, each in his own niche, to be sure, but each with a vision of the whole. Then if there chances to be but one agent in a county, be that man or woman, the program can be carried on harmoniously. This is made increasingly possible by the recent and important development of subject-matter extension specialists for use in all counties as the work demands. SUBSTANTIAL EVENING DISH Recipe for Making Chowder of Vegetables Suggested by Department of Agriculture. Vegetable chowder is a substantial dish and therefore makes a good main dish at luncheon or supper. The following recipe for making a chowder of vegetables is suggested by the United States Department of Agriculture: Vegetable Chowder. 4 potatoes. 2 tablespoon. 3 carrots. fuls of fat, or a 3 onions. piece of salt pork. 1 pint canned tomato. 3 level tablespoon- toes. fuls flour. 2 table spoonfuls 2 cupfuls skimmilk. salt. Cut potatoes and carrots in small pieces, add enough water to cover, and cook for 20 minutes. Do not drain off the water. Brown the chopped onion in the fat for five minutes. Add this and the tomatoes to the vegetables. Heat to boiling, add two cupfuls of skimmilk, and thicken with flour. Celery tops or green peppers give good flavor, too. Household Questions A silver sugar shaker is a novelty. Ether or aniline will remove stain made by pitch. Use a new floor mop for wiping the wallpaper and woodwork. Garnish veal with slices of lemons topped with grated horseradish. Allow extra cretonne for bureau scarfs when buying it for bedroom windows. Three tablespoonfuls of cracker crumbs make a pleasant addition to an omelet. Lay damp cloths over the top of your radiators when cleaning them. The dust will not fly. Do not press stuffing too tightly into the body or crop of any poultry. It will make a heavy dressing. Calves' hearts may be stuffed with bread crumbs and sprinkled with hot buttered crumbs and salt and pepper. Let us fold away our fears And put by our foolish tears, And through all the coming years Just be glad. Our dietitians tell us that the average American eats at least one-third more food than he needs. If we could learn to stop eating before we have reached the stage of being stuffed, and masticate what we do eat he needs. If we could learn to stop eating before we have reached the stage of being stuffed, and masticate what we do eat at least four times as long as we usually do, we would find that we would be satisfied with much less food, have less stomach trouble and live more useful and efficient lives. In almost every part of the United States there are apples to be found. Where there are no orchards, there are apples to be procured from the markets. As they are the most wholesome of fruits they should be served in a variety of ways, so that they never become monotonous. For an entree to serve with the main dish at dinner there is no sweet more attractive than baked apple slices. Core the apples before peeling; peel, then cut in slices one-half inch thick and place in a well-greased baking dish, giving each slice plenty of room so that they may be removed after baking without breaking. Sprinkle with sugar, a bit of butter and a thick grating of nutmeg. Bake and baste with a bit of hot water to start with, then with the juice of the apple. When tender serve one slice with the meat or as a separate dish. Eggs Shirred With Sausages.—Prick six sausages all over and place around the edge of a baking dish, and cook in the oven until crisp; pour off the fat and cut the sausages into inch pieces; break three fresh eggs in the center of the dish, pour over two tablespoonfuls of fat and set in the oven to cook the eggs. Serve in the baking dish. Apple Pie a la Mode.—Bake an apple pie as usual, and serve with a caramel ice cream, a spoonful on top of each piece when serving. To prepare the caramel, brown a cupful of sugar in a smooth omelet pan, add hot milk, and when melted add enough cream to make it as rich as one likes, a sprinkling of salt, and sugar to sweeten. Browning the sugar takes away its sweetness. "Quaff ye the waters of Ramona's Good luck they bring and secrets tell; Blessed were they by sandaled Friar, So drink and wish for thy desire." GOOD IDEAS FOR THE COOK As food materials differ in price with the locality and with the season it is often impossible to follow a recipe, as we find some ingredient either too expensive or difficult to obtain. If the housewife understands the composition of foods she can substitute some other food material with good results. follow a recipe, as we find some ingredient either too expensive or difficult to obtain. If the housewife understands the composition of foods she can substitute some other food material with good results. For example, when butter is called for, chicken fat, sour cream, clarified bacon fat or some one of the butter substitutes may be used. Cream contains more water than butter, chicken fat less; so in using such fats this must be taken into account. Chopped nuts are also added to dishes to add to the food value. All these things are invaluable knowledge for the housewife to have. It is easy to find from bulletins published by the United States Department of Agriculture almost anything in regard to foods. The following data will be helpful culture almost anything in regar dto foods: One cupful of whole milk, two teaspoonfuls, all measurements level. One cupful of cream, three tablespoonfuls; double cream, six tablespoonfuls. Butter, one cupful, fourteen tablespoonfuls; the two unaccounted for, salt and moisture. One cupful of English walnut meats, two-thirds of a cupful of fat. Peanuts, one cupful, about one-third fat. Chocolate, one square (one ounce), one tablespoonful of fat (scant). Grated cheese (four ounces), one cupful; two and one-half tablespoonfuls of fat. One egg yolk, a little more than a teaspoonful; a whole egg the same. Vegetable oils, from which all water has been driven off, contain one cupful to one cupful. In a cake in which two-thirds of a cupful of butter is required and one cupful of milk, using a cupful of cream, reducing the butter two tablespoonfuls and two tablespoonfuls of water added, will make the proportions right. After the cooking dishes are used or even while in the process of cooking the dishes may be washed and put away. They wash much easier before the food is allowed to dry. In all homes there should be an emergency shelf of canned goods and foods to be quickly prepared. It is like a bank account—a "source of help in time of trouble."

PHILLIPS & RAYMOND EXIT WINTER MILLINERY; SIMPLE STYLE IN BLOUSES IT IS only the aristocrats among hats that survive the length of the season to find themselves admired and salable at its close—when all their lovely companions are faded and gone. These hats have excellences that give them a lasting appeal; in beauty and becomingness of lines, in unusual or ingenious drapery or in flattering color combinations. Nevertheless they must soon make way for hats of another character—those between-seasons affairs of silk, satin and other fabrics that fill in the gap between late winter and spring, so that milliners are willing to part with fine winter hats at a sacrifice. Three examples of the survival of the fittest in winter millinery are THE FASHION WEEKLY THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Last Call for Winter Millinery. shown above, with one small, plain companion of felt that will face snow or sun with equal success. The large hat at the top of the group, has a crown of rich brocaded silk and an eccentric brim, beautifully draped with velvet. This combination is never out of date in winter hats and makes opportunity for many lovely color combinations. There is plenty of time for its cheerful display between now and Easter. Large hats are in the minority, but one of the dependable styles among them appears at the left of the group. This is a velvet hat also, with a narrow band of krimmer between the top and side crown. A very large and handsome hand-made flower of velvet and satin is posed at the right side. The small, chic turban that finishes the group has everything to recom- A THE Simple Blouses in Demand. mend it to those who appreciate its fine points. It is made of black velvet studded with nailhead ornaments and its lines are those of the beautiful oriental turban. It is not worth while to undertake to improve on them or upon the pose of the feather which springs up at the front. This hat will please smartly dressed matrons. Other noteworthy hats that hold a brief for winter show metal brocades, velvet and fur in rich combinations, all in small or medium sizes. Behind the scenes, waiting their due to enter, are the blouses of spring. They will soon occupy fashion's --- Bath stage in great force. In the meantime blouses that are to do service between now and spring are selling freely and the taste of the public, tested by its demands, is shown to run to simple styles and staple fabrics. The stamp of approval has been set on crepe de chine, in which the suit colors are liked best. Navy blue and henna have the greatest number of admirers and, with the exception of tan and bisque, light colors are neglected for the time being. For trimmings bead embroidery is preferred, but narrow ribbons and simple stitchery answer the purpose of trimming admirably on these unpretentious blouses. In styles the short peplum and the 11 smock are sure to be selected when simplicity is the keynote of the mode and in materials, beside crepe de chine, tricolette and georgette are given considerable attention. The two blouses which have been selected for illustration, are representative of those shown in the stores for present wear. One of them, cut in kimono style, is made of navy blue crepe de chine and contents itself with such naive decoration as navy satin ribbon, having a bright green edge, and a tiny silk braid that outlines the neck. Its girdle is made of the crepe de chine and set loosely below the waistline. Girdles on blouses are inconspicuous. The companion blouse, of henna crepe, employs black and white beads for trimming in a design that is modest but distinctive. It has set-in sleeves. The crepe de chine blouse A does not belong to one but to all seasons of the year and this would insure it consideration, even if this beautiful fabric were not a perennial favorite. Lingerie waists of batiste and volle are among the staple things that change little in style and they may be made up now for next spring and summer.
