LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY LEGEND OF INFERIORITY BASED SOLELY ON TRADITION OF SLAVERY "White Race Only a Stage in Humanity—Not First—No Guarantee It Will Not Be Outdistanced in Future Ages by Colored People." VOL. XXVIII. LEGEND OF INFERIOUS SOLELY ON TRAIL "White Race Only a Stage in Guarantee It Will Not B Ages by Col (From N. Y. World.) ARIS, Dec. 28.—"An end must be put to this absurd legend of the inferiority of the black races. It is based solely on the tradition of slavery and is not at all flattering to the white races." So declares General Mangin, whose utterance is the most authoritative of those who have taken up advocacy of the cause of the blacks, following the winning of the Goncourt literary prize by the Martineau writer, Rene Moran. Mangin is the great champion of the black army theory, holding that only by training and arming her colonial subjects can France redress the balance in face of more populous Germany. Their fighting value he proved in the war, for "Manger' Mangin's colonial army was always in the thick of the French offensive. The general gained his affection for the colored races during the twenty years he spent in colonial military and administrative commands. He is not merely a soldier, but has considerable competence in literary talent, which gives weight to his remarks on culture among the Negro races. There really is an intellectual elite among the blacks, whom liberty has introduced to our culture" he asserted in an interview. "And experience has demonstrated that this elite possesses the ability to excel in every domain of human activity. Civilization has its source in Yellow Asia, Black India and Black Egypt. Greece dates only from 1,200 or 1,500 years before Christ. Rome was only a tardy parvenue in the history of world development. Our alphabets are Asiatic and our figures Arab. In short, the white race is only a stage in humanity, not the first nor probably the last. There is no guarantee that it will not be outdistanced by the colored races in future ages." "By its haughty manner toward the masses of Negroes within its territory, the great American democracy, otherwise so generous and humane, seems to forget at this point the Good Samaritan," writes M. Groschaude. "With us the old regime did not wait for the proclamation of the League of the Rights of Man to treat our colored subjects as members of the family. In truth, we have never been a race of slave dealers. Doubtless, a few were recruited among our coastal population at the time of the great adventure. "The Frenchman is infinitely more cordial with his black male cousins and more gallant with his black female cousins. Generally, the French resident, civilian or military, lives on excellent terms with the local population as soon as they realize we are not there to persecute them or hold them to ransom, and that there is every advantage in supporting themselves on our tempered tutelage and good fellowship. That is what distinguishes us from the English—correct, loyal and haughty, who know how to make themselves feared than to make themselves loved. "I believe we are the only nation in the world which treats the blacks as brothers—as inferior brothers, if in State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House FOR THE ONLY RELIANCE COLOR ORITY BASED EDITION OF SLAVERY In Humanity—Not First—No the Outdistanced in Future fored People.” default of sufficient moral or intellectual emancipation, they have not attained their social majority: as equals, when their rich primitive nature, brought to value by our teachings, is raised above the common level. "The awarding of the Goncourt prize to a colored writer has a high significance." Appeal for Funds in Fight for Dyer Bill The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. 70 Fifth avenue, New York City, today issued the following statement calling for financial assistance in the fight to make the Dyer anti-lynching bill, H. R. 13, a law: "In its ten-year fight on lynching," the statement says, "the N. A. A. C. P. has spent almost $35,000. The association's anti-lynching fund, which it is sought always to keep at the $10,000 mark, has dwindled because of the heavy demands made upon it. Those demands have included personal investigations of lynchings, mass meetings, world-wide publicity. The old canard that rape is a cause of lynching has been finally and once for all exploded. "During almost a month's debate of the bill in Congress, the secretary of the N. A. A. C. P. has been in Washington in constant conference with leaders in the House of Representatives. An enormous mass of information collected by the N. A. A. C. P., and newspaper editorials based on statistics of the N. A. A. C. P., have been inserted in the Congressional Record and will be read through the country. "The N. A. A. C. P., confident that its work has been effective and has made the Dyer anti-lynching bill a national issue, calls upon citizens for such contributions to the anti-lynching fund as they can afford. What is it worth to colored Americans to continue unabated the fight to blot out lynching in the United States? When the bill has been passed by the House of Representatives, it must still be enacted by the Senate. To bring this about strenuous work is necessary. The association will furnish the work. Will its friends furnish the funds? "Donations of sums from $1 up will be welcomed. Make checks payable to J. E. Spingarn, treasurer, and send them to the N. A. A. C. P., 70 Fifth avenue, New York. What will you give? Now is the time. If you do not act now, you may not have another opportunity for many years." FRANCE TO ENLIST MORE BLACK TROOPS. Paris, France, Jan. 13.—Colored troops will replace in France regiments which are being disbanded. A measure shortly to come before the chamber provides for the maintenance under arms in France of a total effective of 356,000 men, composed of 293,000 Frenchmen and 63,000 natives. $2,000,000 Willed Four Southern Colored Schools Atlanta, Tuskegee and Hampton Get $400,000 Each From Wealthy New York Woman New York, Jan. 18.—By the will of the late Calista S. Mayhew, wealthy white woman for probate in Newark, four colored schools in the South will divide among themselves the huge sum of $2,000,000. This is the largest sum given for the education of colored people since January of last year, when John D. Rockefeller gave the colossal sum of $2,291,737.50 to thirty colored colleges and medical schools. By Mrs. Mayhews will Hampton and Tuskegee institutes and Atlanta university will each receive $400,000 and Snow Hill Institute at Snow Hill, Alabama, will receive $800,000. Other bequests include $800,000 to the Good Will Association of East Fairfield Maine (white) and $50,000 to friends. She left no relatives. Snow Hill Little Known. Snow Hill Institute, is located in Wileox county, Alabama, 125 miles from Tuskegee. Its principal, W. J. Edwards graduated from Tuskegee twenty-five years ago, and with three pupils and fifty cents started a school on the model of Booker Washington's. Today the property is worth $125,000 with twenty-four buildings and 1,940 acres of land. There are twenty-nine colored teachers and 300 pupils mostly in elementary and secondary grades. Fourteen trades are taught, but the specialty is agriculture. N. A. A. C. P. Officer to Fight Deportation of Bullock The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that its assistant secretary, Walter F. White, had gone to Buffalo en route for Canada, to assist in the efforts being made to prevent deportation of Matthew Bullock, a colored man whom it is sought to take back to North Carolina. Bullock is charged with having instigated a race riot in Norlina, North Carolina, following which his brother and one other man were lynched. The riot originated about a year ago in a dispute over some apples for which Bullock's brother had paid. He was offered an inferior grade and protested. A bystander suggested that he be shot. That night a lynching mob formed. A fight ensued in which six white boys and three colored boys were shot. Later that night Bullock's brother and another colored man were taken from the jail and lynched. Bullock fled to Canada, entering that country from the United States on March 13 last. Because of his having entered Canada without inspection he is subject to deportation. Appeal to stay the deportation has been made to the Canadian government in Ottawa. Should Bullock be returned to the United States, nevertheless, efforts will be made to have him held in New York state, whose governor will be asked to deny extradition to North Carolina. N. A. A. C. P. Secretary Reports on Dyer Bill's Progress James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today issued the following statement on the progress of the Dyer anti-lynching bill, H. R. 13, whose course he has been closely following in Washington. "The Dyer anti-lynching bill was taken up again for debate on Tuesday, January 17, and the debate was continued on Wednesday, the 18th. The Democrats continued their filibuster to prevent consideration of the measure. The debate on Wednesday was another test of the strength which the bill has as it took a two-thirds vote to suspend the calendar Wednesday. "The debate on both days was at times very bitter. The most effective opposition to the bill, however, came not from the Southern Democrats, but from certain Republicans, notably MR. HERSEY OF MAINE and MR. REAVIS OF NEBRASKA. Speeches of the Southern Democrats were bitter in terms, but absurd in their reasoning. The bulk of their argument consisted in repeating the exploded canard about rape being the cause of lynching and in denunciation of the Negro. Fourteen hours of general debate were assigned to the bill. About thirteen hours have already been consumed. Further debate will go over to Tuesday, January 24. The leaders propose to finish the debate and proceed with the reading of the bill for amendments. The possibility is that the bill may come to a vote at the end of the week of January 21. "Friends of the bill must not be over-sanguine. Some of the Republican members are weak on the bill and there are sure to be a number of amendments proposed which would weaken the bill. Friends of the bill must continue to urge their representatives in Congress to support the measure and prevent its being emasculated." LANE COLLEGE GETS $10,000 Jackson, Tenn., Dec. 29.—In a whirlwind campaign conducted here in behalf of Lane college, the sum of $5,375.85 was realized in ten days' canvassing. The white people worked by the side of colored in behalf of the fund, and a fine spirit was exhibited by all. It was considered by the college authorities as a fine expression of sympathy, interest and respect on the part of the people here for the work that the college is doing. It is understood that northern friends will duplicate this amount, giving the college $10,000 to spend for a larger and better equipment. It is the plan to provide larger laboratories, better library facilities and more adequate supplies for the various departments. When this is done, Lane college will be one of the best equipped schools in all the country. The college employs twenty-two well trained teachers and has over 400 students all of whom are above the junior high school grade. Letter Written to Marcus Garvey Calling Upon Him for a Retraction of Statements Published in the Negro World Letter Written to Marcus Garvey Calling Upon Him for a Retraction of Statements Published in the Negro World The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today made public a letter written to Marcus Garvey, managing editor of the Negro World, a newspaper, calling upon him for a retraction of statements published in the number of January 21, 1922, and directed against the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, although the association is not mentioned by name. The letter, which was signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, is as follows: "Marcus Garvey, Esq., Managing Editor the Negro World." "Sir: "In the Negro World of January 21, 1922, on page 5, column 2, occur the following statements: "All the troubles we have had on our ships have been caused because men were paid to make this trouble by certain organizations calling themselves Negro Advancement Associations. They paid men to dismantle our machinery and otherwise damage it so as to bring about the downfall of the movement." "You are aware, of course, that the name 'Negro Advancement Associations' is sufficiently like that of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to lead some persons, in spite of the absurdity of the accusation, to believe that it is this association which is being referred to. We do not know of any other organization with a similar name. We must therefore ask you, in justice to your readers and to the members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to make it clear that you did not intend to accuse this association of employing men to injure or dismantle any machinery whatever on any ship whatsoever. As you know, such a statement applied to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People could be characterized only as a malicious falsehood of the most contemptible sort. "JAMES WELDON JOHNSON. "Secretary." SELF.CONFESSED LYNCHERS GIVEN LIFE SENTENCES. Five Sent to Prison for Death of Oklahoma Packing Worker. Oklahoma City, Okla., Jan. 25.—Five self-confessed members of the party that lynched Jake Brooks, Negro packing house worker, here on the night of Jan. 14, pleaded guilty before Federal Judge James I. Phelps Tuesday and were sentenced to life imprisonment. They are: Lee Whitley, 29; Charles Polk, 18; Elmer Yearta, 19, whites; and Robert Allen, 27, and Nathan Butler, 40. Negroes. Whitley and Yearta are members of the butcher workmen's union on strike at the packing plants here, while Polk is an admitted strike sympathizer. Allen is a cousin of the Negro who was lynched. The speed with which these cases were disposed of set a record for trials for alleged members of lynching parties, attorneys said. The two Negroes were arrested Jan. 17 and their signed confessions implicated five men, later arrested. The cases of two white men remain to be disposed of, while an eighth is under arrest at Mart, Texas. NO 16 NEGRO ACTOR'S TOUR THROUGH SOUTH HALTED BY KU KLUX New York, Jan. 25.—The tour of Charles Gilpin, the Negro actor, has been abandoned, as far as the South is concerned, temporarily at least. Adolph Klauber, under whose management Gilpin was playing in "The Emperor Jones," sent him into Virginia and had planned to send him further south. In Richmond the show did well and it began to appear the South would overlook the fact that Gilpin is a Negro. But now Broadway hears quick change in plans came about. A letter with a Ku Klux Klan signature was received by Gilpin while in Virginia. It advised him not to continue in the South with his company, which contains a number of white players. The route was changed and the troupe is now in Ohio. Gilpin, it is understood, was willing to go ahead with the southern tour and Mr. Klauber was willing that he should, but managers of theaters in other southern cities where the attraction was booked heard of the klan letter and cancelled the Gilpin engagement.

C., Jan. 11.—Thomas Walter Rickett, former governor of North Carolina, died at his home here following a paralytic stroke. Governor Rickett was a strong opponent of lynching and was active in inter-racial movements. FOREIGN The pearl market of Paris, which considers itself the market of the world, has suffered a slump. A necklace of Oriental pearls, valued by the experts at 1,500,000 francs, has just been sold by public auction for only 408,000 francs. Gen. Bramwell Booth has just announced that the Salvation Army intends almost immediately to put into operation a scheme for the early transfer of 10,000 British women to the dominions. Every one of them will be going to assured employment. While the War Department of Mexico is struggling for a budget of 125,000,000 pesos and the Department of Public Education for 50,000,000, the Department of the Interior has to defend its budget of only 2,000,000, the most modest that any of the cabinet officers has, as yet, presented to the consideration of Congress. The expenditure of the United Kingdom must be reduced by £200,000,000, Austen Chamberlain, government leader in the House of Commons, told the conference of Scottish Unionists in Glasgow. This reduction is necessary to "make both ends meet" and will not take into account any proposed reduction in taxation. A nurse in the employ of the American Red Cross at Goldingen, Latvia, lost ten sons in the war, her husband was shot by the Bolshevik and her three daughters died last year. Still she goes about her work with a smile. "Nitchevo," is her consolation, which means, among a million other things, "It can't be helped." Elsa Anderson, the only Swedish woman to hold an aviator's certificate, was killed at Askersund. Four thousand spectators were watching her make a flight, and were worried when Miss Anderson, in attempting a parachute descent from the machine, fell like a plummet to the earth. The parachute failed to open and she plunged 2,000 feet to death. The French people have not lost their habit of thrift and taken to spending their cents rather than putting them away in the proverbial "woolen stocking," as reported abroad. The French National Savings Bank had in 1813, 15,066,000 depositors with 5,829,000,000 francs savings. Its latest report shows 15,738,000 depositors with 8,149,000,000 francs to their credit. An ounce of gold purchases 17.22 hours of labor in the United States; 50.16 hours in Britain; 95.50 hours in Japan; 117.31 hours in France and 201.66 hours in Germany, said C. J. Hannon, member of Parliament for the Moseley division of Birmingham, quoting statistics in the course of an address to the members of the National Union of Manufacturers at Birmingham, England. GENERAL Col. Henry S. Graves, former chief forester of the United States, is to return as dean of the Yale forest school, it has been announced. Dean James William Toumy is to resume his more purely scientific work. Railroad rates are being slowly but steadily forced downward by economic laws, Daniel Willard, president of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, argued before the Interstate Commerce Commission when that body resumed its inquiry into the general level of transportation charges. Of the 40,191 cases tried by the Traffic Court in New York city during 1921, 1,020 chauffeurs were sent to jail on straight sentences, and 1,880 drivers went to jail in default of payment of fines. Since the court was opened in June, 1916, the fines collected have totaled $1,389,180. Three persons were killed and four injured at Newark, Ohio, when their bob sled was struck by an automobile. They had almost reached the foot of a mile-long hill when they crashed head-on into an automobile coming up the hill. The sled was said to have been on the wrong side of the road: Only one member of the coasting party was uninjured. Part of his shinbone transferred to his jaw to correct an imperfection in his chin, Henry F. Mally, dr., of Brooklyn recently fell on the ice, cracking the shin from which the fragment had been removed. His death from shock was announced after he had been made ready for a second operation needed to mend his leg and perfect his chin. Archibald Birse, a Chicago tailor, is $50,000 richer for having taken a few stitches in a pair of torn trousers thirty-four years ago. Ernest De St. Giles, insurance expert and author, left this amount to Birse, who befriended him when De St. Giles came to Chicago thirty-four years ago, penniless. Birse sewed the insurance man's trousers and trusted him for the 50-cent charge. His skull fractured when he was playfully tipped out of bed by a fraternity brother at Hamilton College, William Duncan Saunders, son of Dr. A. P. Saunders of the faculty of the college, died in a Utica, N. Y., hospital. The young man, a freshman, felt no ill effects at first from falling on his head, but later became unconscious. He was 15 years old, the youngest student in the college. Eleven persons were injured, two probably fatally, when an automobile, said by the police to be traveling at a rapid rate of speed, crashed into a street car in Chicago. Four of those injured were occupants of the automobile and the others were passengers on the street car. The steamer Centennial reported by radio that the new Norwegian freight steamer Mod had sunk in mid-ocean. The messages said the survivors were on board the steamer Melmorehead, but did not indicate whether any members of the crew were lost.

WESTERN E. W. Robb, sheriff preacher of Polk county, Iowa, has resigned as pastor of the Federated church, "to avoid criticism when I execute Orrile Cross and Eugene Weeks." Cross and Weeks will be hanged in April. Thieves cut a hole in the plate glass window of Samuel and Company, in San Francisco, jewelers, and removed $9,000 worth of pearls and platinum jewelry, the firm reported to the police. The street is one of the busiest in the city. Emil Umann, assistant manager of a downtown theater in Kansas City, was held up in the play house by two armed men and robbed of $2,200 in cash, part of the theater's payroll, he reported to the police. In escaping, one of the bandits dropped a satchel containing $500. Fire of undertermined origin partly destroyed the Turner building, one of the older business structures at Muskogee, Okla., causing damage estimated at $250,000. The Melton hotel occupied a large part of the building. The clothing stock of Max Davidson, which is valued at $150,000, was destroyed. Mrs. Louise F. Wurtzbarger will be taken to the Colorado state penitentiary at Cañon City to serve the ten-year sentence recently imposed upon her in Federal Court for killing her husband at the Chemawa Indian reservation, near Salem, Ore.

Steve Maslich, convicted with Nick Oblizalo of the murder of Marco Laus in a ravine near the state prison in Utah on Aug. 3, 1919, was shot to death by a firing squad in the prison yard. The men are alleged to have committed the crime to obtain $1,100 in gold carried by Laus. Maslich recently failed in his appeal to the Supreme Court and the governor denied a reprieve. Oblizalo's appeal is now pending before the Supreme Court. Maslich, a few minutes before his death, protested his innocence, declaring that Oblizalo killed Laus. WASHINGTON Figures on the cost of living in twenty-one cities issued by the bureau of labor statistics, showed declines from June, 1920, to December, 1921, ranging from 12.5 per cent at Los Angeles to 21.6 per cent at Cincinnati, while declines from September, 1921, to December ranged from unchanged at Scranton to 2.9 per cent at St. Louis. There is no parallel in the records of the bureau of markets and crop estimates to the fall of $21.22, or 59 per cent in the average value an acre of the ten crops constituting nineteenth of all crop production, which occurred in the two years from 1919 to 1921, it was announced by the Department of Agriculture. The decline was found by the department to have been from $35.74 in 1919 to $14.52 in 1921. Miss Garland Johnson of Bridgeport, W. Va., has just been awarded a $4,000 university scholarship for having written the best essay on "Good Roads and Highway Transport." The contest was conducted by the good roads and highway transport education committee of Washington, D. C., and the contest was open to all high school pupils. The hope of the late Henry Stead, Australian publisher and journalist, that each nation touching on the Pacific ocean establish a "ministry of friendship," was conveyed to Secretary Hughes by Alexander Hume Ford, director of the Pan-Pacific Union. Mr. Ford said the hope was expressed by Mr. Stead in his "last written message" just prior to his death. The treasury appropriation bill, the first of the annual appropriation measures, was passed by the Senate, carrying $120,272,000, as compared with $118,806,000 authorized by the House. Included was $9,250,000 for enforcement of prohibition and a new provision authorizing the government to concentrate bonded liquor in a few warehouses, to save expense of guarding. The bill goes to conference. Exports of manufactures fell off by $2,000,000,000, shipments out of the country of raw materials dropped by nearly $1,000,000,000, and foodstuffs exports declined by about $500,000,000 during 1921, the Commerce Department announced. Imports showed similar declines in the various groups of commodities. Railroads and public utilities throughout the country have been advised by government officials to stock up to capacity with coal before April 1, in the face of the bituminous strike, which appears inevitable at this time.

Fort Collins.—Isolated communities in Colorado are demanding more and more the services of the extension specialists from the Colorado Agricultural College. Since Aug. 1, 1921, the poultry specialist alone has assisted with meetings in twenty separated communities, reaching over 1,000 farm people.

Denver.—Compilations made by the State Immigration Department show that in 1921 46.54 per cent of the total area of the state was patented land, 12.29 per cent homestead land, 20.03 per cent national forests, 4.47 per cent state land, and the remainder, being 16.67 per cent, was unclassified as to ownership. This unclassified land is chiefly homestead land that has been filed on but not proved up and government land temporarily withdrawn from homestead entry for various reasons. There has been a steady increase in the area of patented land in the state in recent years, due chiefly to the patenting of homestead and state land. In 1920, 44.41 per cent of the area of the state was patented, and in 1919 it was 42.21 per cent. The area of homestead land is decreasing rapidly, and the area of state land is decreasing steadily but more slowly. At the present increase in area of patented land half the area of the state will be on the tax rolls sometime in 1924. The area of homestead land in the state now is only a little more than 8,000,000 acres, compared with nearly 15,000,000 acres in 1916. Costilla county has a larger percentage of its area on the tax rolls than any other county—99.6 per cent. Denver.—Colorado has been for so many years known as a mining state that few people know the extent of agriculture in the state. There are 59, 991 farms in Colorado, and in number Colorado is ahead of eighteen states, being Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Oregon, Rhode Island, Utah, Vermont and Wyoming. Weld county leads in numbers with 5,765; Las Animas second, with 2,286, and Yuma third, with 2,179. Clear Creek has the fewest, 27; Lake next, with 30, and Mineral third, with 34. San Juan county is the only one without a farm. Denver, a city and county in itself, has 94 farms, which is probably a surprise even to the oldest inhabitant. Ouray.—Cupid was the locksmith who unbarred the gates of the United States to Ann Ondreuko and her son, Powell, who had been detained by the immigration authorities at Ellis Island. Mick Garchar, a genial Irishman of Ouray, Colo., related a love story that touched the hardened hearts of the chiefs in the immigration service and persuaded them to permit him to send Mrs. Ondreuko to the altar. Garchar convinced the authorities he means business, matrimonially speaking, and that he will marry Mrs. Ondreuko and adopt her son as soon as they arrive in Ouray. Colorado Springs—Fire, started by trespassers, did hundreds of dollars of damage to the Halfway house, a historic structure on the slope of Pike's Peak. Caretakers of the Colorado Springs water system who saw the blaze from a distance, succeeded in saving a part of the building. Hikers who had broken in Sunday night had kindled a fire in one of the huge fireplaces, and this had spread to the woodwork. The Halfway house, which is the property of the city, will not be rebuilt, officials said. Colorado Springs.—Potatoes and grain will cease to be mountain farm crops in the Ute pass section west of Colorado Springs this season, with the formation of a co-operative lettuce growers' association which will plant several hundred acres this season. The Midland railroad has made arrangements to build shipping sheds and plans for refrigerators are being completed now. The lettuce territory will extend west from Woodland Park to Divide. Denver.—An increase of $23,381.62 in receipts for December, 1921, at the local postoffice department over the month of December, 1920, was shown in a report. During December, 1921, the receipts of the office were $276,544.85, as compared with $253,163.23 during December, 1920—an increase of 9.24 per cent. Denver.—Chester Stephen Morey, notable business world figure, generally known as "the grand old man of the sugar industry," and pioneer founder of the Manual Training High School, died of double pneumonia at his home in Denver. Mr. Morey created the C. S. Morey Mercantile Company, twice served on the school board, organized the Great Western Sugar Company and was chairman of its board of directors at the time of his death. Due to his activity in developing the sugar and wholesale grocery interests in the West, he has been rated one of the wealthiest men in Colorado. He came to this state fifty years ago in ill health and since had become known as one of its most public-spirited and philanthropic citizens. Telluride.—Andy Malloy, 40 years old, awaiting trial for the murder of Gio Oberto near Ophir Loop Dec. 16, committed suicide in the county jail by slashing his throat with a razor. His body was found by Sheriff Wagner and Deputy Sheriff Reece. Malloy was a great friend of Jack Dempsey, and is credited with having started the heavyweight champion on his path to fame. Denver.—Boy Scout week will be observed in all Colorado from Feb. 8 to 14 for the purpose of observing the twelfth birthday of the Boy Scout organization in this country. Governor Shoup Saturday issued a proclamation declaring the period named to be Boy Scout week. Denver—Denver's fire loss in 1921 was $258,908.03 less than in 1920, according to the annual report of Fire Chief John F. Healy to Manager of Safety Frank M. Downer. The total loss in 1921 was $449,998.82. In 1920 the loss aggregated 708,508.85. Aiding Nature in Her Work TO repair the damage done by destructive forces is a process of no short time.

PONTIFF HAD BRIEF REIGN Elevated to the Papal Throne In 1914, His Life Was Saddened by the Atro- cities of the Great War—Or- dained Priest in 1874. Rome.—Pope Benedict XV 1s dead. From a slight cold, which had not been regarded as anything serious, double pneumonia developed, and the physicians in attendance had given up hope for the recovery of their dis- tinguished patient. Thetr bulletins had in a measure prepared the world for the sad event. Cardinal Gasparri, papal secretary of state, made public the fact of the death of the pope. His holiness had been suffering for some days, having contracted double pneumonia, and treatment began too late. During the early hours of the morn- ing, toward 4 o'clock, there was a sud- den change for the worse and the bronchial affection from which his holl- ness had been suffering for several days, spread to his lungs. , ‘The pontiff asked for and received the last sacrament, insisting upon this, “it only to give a good example,” he said, despite attempts by his attend- ants to dissuade him. ‘The pope's physicians were in con- gultation at the Vatican at an early hour, and the morning bulletin issued afterward indicated an extremely seri- eo x oo ae cs OM ey tS ; iy i : Sas i oe NN a. 6 hCUC 3 outer ae < pe ‘ ae ge 2 i can The Late Pope Benedict XV. ous condition. Dr. Battistini, however, stated then that while the condition of his holiness was grave, It was not hopeless. Bane Given Oxvaen. Soon thereafter, however, the pope's condition became aggravated and the administration of oxygen was begun. Meanwhile, prayers were being said in all the churches and Catholic instl- tutions of Rome on behalf of his holl- mess and great crowds began to as- semble in St. Peter's. The sudden change for the worse in the pontiff's condition seemed to have come as a great surprise, even to those who had been observing him most closely. Last evening he received ome strengthening injections and the doctors then stated they were satis- fied with his condition, expressing hope that danger of an extension of the in- fiammation to the lungs had passed and saying the crists appeared to be ‘overcome. One of the most disturbing condi- tions that developed early in the day seemed to be passing away after 10 o'clock in the morning, as the pontiff was then able to expectorate slightly. This aroused more hope among the watchers, but toward 11 o'clock he be- came worse again and oxygen then was administered. Cardinals Walt Word. Mgr. Zampint, sacristan of the apos- tolic palace, Mgr. Carlo Respighi, the pontifical prefect of ceremonies, and Mgr. Migone, the private chamberlain, were at the pope's bedside. ‘There was an air of deep anxiety and apprehension about the Vatican, where many of the cardinals were waiting In an antechamber, all the cardinals in Italy having assembled in Rome upon recetving word of the pope's serious illness, ‘The doctors, after a consultation, did not conceal the gravity of the pontiff's condition, although Professor Marchiafara took a more hopeful ew than his col- leagues. Pope Hears Mass Celebrated. ‘Mgr. Migone celebrated mass in an apartment adjoining the pope’s bed- room. The door to the sick-room re- Pope Benedict XV, two hun- dred and sixtieth In the list of Roman pontiffs, served as pope for about seven years and five months, having been crowned at the Vatican Sept. 6, 1914. His reign was shorter than that of any of the three popes immedi- ately preceding him, Pope Plus X, his Immediate predecessor, served 11 years before he died in 1914, mained open so that the pontiff might hear, Many diplomats visited the Vatican seeking news; all of them were re- celved in the antechamber, none be- ing permitted to disturb the patient. It ts sald that the pope contracted his present illness three days before his death, after he had celebrated mass in Matilde chapel. He received vist- tors and attended to his usual pontif- cal duties until a comparatively few hours before he passed away. Cardinal Gtorgl, the apostle peniten- tiary, was summoned to Pope Bene- dict’s bedside at 8 o'clock this morn- ing, says an Exchange Telegraph dis- patch from Rome, to London, to recite the prayer for the dying. Spreads to Right Lung. ‘The last offictal bulletin on’ the con- dition of his holiness read: “His holiness has been four days with influenza bronchitis, It is aseer- tained that inflammatory process has spread to the right lung. “The patient passed an agitated night and had no sleep. This morning the dyspnoea is intense. The tempera- ture was 104, the pulse 102 and the respiration 58. “BATTISTINI, “BATTISTINI, “CHERUBINI, “BIGNAMI, “MARCHIAFAVA.” Takes Turn for Worse. It was about 4 o'clock in the morning that the change for the worse in the pope's condition occurred. It was espe- cially due to catarrh, which has spread to both lungs, to inability to expec: torate and to pulmonary inflammation, ft was stated. Professor Cherubin|, who had been waiting at the Vatican, was immediately summoned. He fgund the pope mentally depressed and pant- Ing for breath. Teeallzing the patient's serlous con- dition, Dr. Cherubini administered sedatives and expectorants, but the beneficial effects expected did not man- {fest themselves. In view of the gray- ity of the situation Dr. Cherubin! sent ‘an urgent call to Professor Bignaml, a Vatican automobile being dispatched to bring him to the Vatican, his ar- rival there following shortly. Consultation Is Held. Professor Bignam! the evening be- fore had remarked upon the absence ofa cough, checking expectoration, and consequently was not surprised by the development, {t appeared. After f brief inspection of the patient he left to bring Professor Machiafava, with whom he shortly afterward consulted in the Vatican. HAD FILLED HIGH POSITIONS Pope Benedict Prominent in Church Counsels Before His Elevation to the Papal Throne. Pope Benedict XV rose to the su- preme head of the Catholle church Sept. 6, 1914, less than six months after he was elevated to the cardinal- ship. He was born of noble parents at Pogli, ‘near Genoa, Italy, Nov. 21, 4854. His father was Marquis Della Chiesa. Educated at Capronican college and the Academy of Ecclesiastics, he was ordained .to the priesthood in 1878. He was taken to Madrid, Spain, by Cardinal Rampolla, and for four years was secretary of the nunciature in Spain. In 1901 he was appointed con- sultor of the holy office and in 1907 Pope Plus gave him the appointment of archbishop of the see of Bologna. He was made a cardinal in May, 1914. Saddened By Horrors of War. Pope Benedict was much affected by the horrors and sorrow of the World war and many times tried to bring about peace negotiations. Germany's violation of Belgium's neutrality filled him with great sorrow and after the sinking of the Lusitania, he telegraph- ed the German emperor telling his abhorrence of the deed. Pope Benedict's first appeal for peace was issued one week after his coronation, ‘The appeal failed to bring results, as did also his later plan for a Christmas truce. In January and in July, 1915, he again tried to bring about peace negotiations, In March, 1916, he repeated his attempts and in May of the same year suggested that America should act as concillator be- tween the warring nations. His note to President Wilson to this effect reached Washington when Germany and the United States were involved in a diplomatic crisis. The Vatican ap- proved of President Wilson's pence note in 1917, but three months later ‘the United States entered the war. Made Appeal for Peace. ‘The Pope's most memorable appeal for peace was issued in his own hand- wrl'ing on August 8, 1917, and asked pelligerent rulers to end the strugsie. During the peace conference his pleas were Issued in behalf of weaker na- tions, ' Just before the conference President Wilson had a private conference with Pope Benedict at the Vatican in which many questions of a social and Inter- national nature were discussed. ‘The settlement of the 70-year-old | Irish problem was recetved with oe pleasure by the pope, who issued & message congratulating the princips|s jn the negotiations.

The corporation was not operated for profit, and its principal funds for operating expenses were obtained by a levy upon stockholders (an appeal to congress for an appropriation, involving a collection through taxes or imposts). No balance sheet of the corporation as a whole was ever prepared. No complete inventories of its properties existed. No statement of its current assets, such as salable material and current supplies had ever been made, nor was there any easy method existing of securing it.

Today a new Negro lives in America, the Negro who possesses a clear conception of his rights and whose very soul is inbued with a fighting spirit that will not be denied. Our field marshals have been on the ground at Washington and have valiantly contested every inch of the ground.

Charles Young removes from the ranks of the U. S. army one of its finest disciplinarians and military strategists, who arose to high rank in spite of the handicap of color and race. He was in every sense a soldier, a graduate of West Point, a loyal American, and above all a polished gentleman. Without doubt the keenest regret of his long, brilliant military career was that he was not allowed to accompany the colored soldiers to France during the World War. But the War Department under Wilson was hopelessly blind to merit when color entered into consideration, and Colonel Young was unjustly sidetracked. With his passing we have small hope that another Negro will ever stand upon the high pinnacle he occupied so long, admired and beloved by all who knew him. One of his closest and most confident friends was Gen. John J. Pershing, and we have no doubt that had he been consulted in the matter, Colonel Young would have been given an opportunity to render his country the same distinguished service that made him famous in the Philippines and in the Mexico invasion. He was a born soldier, however, and knew how to receive orders as well as to give them, so when he was assigned the duty of training colored officers for the colored units during the World War, he gave the best that was in him. It would be but tardy justice should this government give some testimonial of honor to his worth, but we hope it will be done. THE TUSKEGEE CONFERENCE. RST annual Tuskegee Negro Farmers' Conference, that Tuskegee, Alabama, on January 19th, proved that this imitative body is constantly growing in power and influence. It is the direct outgrowth of one of the pet ideas of Booker at leader and benefactor. For thirty-one years Negro with white farmers, and those interested in agriculture, at Tuskegee Institute, seeking to thresh out the knotty Ancient estates cannot continue a thriving business THE THIRTY-FIRST annual Tuskegee Negro Farmers' Conference, that opened at Tuskegee, Alabamn, on January 19th, proved that this important co-operative body is constantly growing in power and influence. Its present greatness is the direct outgrowth of one of the pet ideas of Booker T. Washington, great leader and benefactor. For thirty-one years Negro farmers, co-operating with white farmers, and those interested in agriculture, have been meeting at Tuskegee Institute, seeking to thresh out the knotty and difficult problems so common to the farming industry. In the long stretch of years the conference has lost none of its interest and zest, as was clearly attested by the record-breaking crowd of this year. Strictly speaking, these conferences are more than a mere gathering of farmers to relate their successes or failures, as the case might be, and enumerate the contributing cause. The conference has extended its sphere of activities to almost every line of industry in the South. It is meeting the real problems of the times and seeking a common sense solution of them. It is reaching beyond the bounds of Alabama, and touching the hearts of large groups of white citizens in the surrounding states. The range of subjects up for discussion ran all the way from co-operative marketing to the most intricate and needful of domestic problems. One of the subjects that left a wonderful impression upon all, was, "How can the town and the open country co-operate for better schools?" There was never a greater question presented to any conference of any people, at any time. And certainly the South needs its prayerful consideration more than any other section of the country. A blind adherence to the pursuit of farming or any other given industry without a corresponded educational application, would not only be destructive of a spirit of progressiveness, but would mean a continuation of stunted minds and dwarf consciousness. It may well be said that the Tuskegee conference survives as an outstanding object lesson to the Negroes in all parts of the country. What can be so successfully inaugurated in Alabama can be as successfully inaugurated in Colorado. The wide difference in population need not be considered. The Negroes of this state could and should meet in annual conference, representation of every class of industry and unselfishly seek to promote a spirit of mutual helpfulness. Race men can be found successfully pursuing all lines of industry. In the Arkansas Valley Negro farmers are known for their thrift and high state of intelligence. The same can be said of the farmer of the San Luis Valley and in Eastern Colorado. In the coal fields we have another kind of an industrial problem, and in the steel works at Pueblo still another kind. These diversified interests do not by any means add to the complexity of the situation, but rather offers added reasons why Colorado should, in this one respect, emulate the example of Alabama. It is the contention of the COLORADO STATESMAN that a fine spirit of unity is struggling for mastery in this community. We are just beginning to appreciate the advantages of team work, are getting it in a larger measure than ever before. Those of use who live in Denver and prodded to boast of our fine homes and beautiful civic improvements, are inclined to grow provincial. We are ready to grasp the slogan for a "Greater Denver," with reckless disregard of what a "Greater Dearfield," or similar communities, would mean to us. We are strong for the Tuskegee conference in all that it may be. But we live in Colorado, we enjoy the mountain breezes and cloudless skies. We live under conditions vastly different from those of the Southland. Yet we can see and readily admit the need of a yearly get-to-gether meeting here beneath the giant Rockies, to be conducted on lines similar to the now famous Tuskegee conference. Summary of the Federal Government's Many Operative Difficulties Summary of the Federal Government's Many Operative Difficulties By GEN. C. G. DAWES. Director of Budget Bureau. Heretofore our government, in routine business administration, has labored under difficulties analogous to those of a private corporation in which: @A. H. H. The president of the corporation gave practically no attention to its ordinary routine business. He avoided his responsibility for the proper conduct of the business of the corporation, and neither assumed nor delegated active control over it. The administrative vice presidents of the corporation were allowed to run their several departments without any enforced contact in the discussion of The business matters of the corporation and as if each separate de- gent was an independent authority in all matters of routine. Because of the lack of any outlined business plan, resulting from the price of executive pressure and supervision, the several departments ope- n with almost an entire lack of co-ordination. The corporation was not operated for profit, and its principal funds operating expenses were obtained by a levy upon stockholders (an apo- congress for an appropriation, involving a collection through taxes posts). No balance sheet of the corporation as a whole was ever prepared. Complete inventories of its properties existed. No statement of its cur- sussets, such as salable material and current supplies had ever been nor was there any easy method existing of securing it. When cash was placed by the stockholders at the disposal of the cor- pon for its purposes, the custom was to notify the different depart- that a certain amount of credit was available with the treasurer of corporation, to be drawn upon as might be necessary to meet any es- ed expenditure involved. As a result of all this, the corporation, in effect, seldom reconsidered wise project entered into by any department. The administrative heads of the departments of the corporation were ed, as a rule, with less reference to their business qualifications than air qualifications as advisers to the president of the corporation along lines than routine business administration. routine business matters of the corporation and as if each separate department was an independent authority in all matters of routine.

College Students to Be Classified According to Mental Alertness The time will soon come when university students will be classified according to their mental alertness. The brilliant students will be classed themselves and forced to do more and harder work. The mediocre students will be required to do only what their mental capacity will allow. We are already separating some students according to their mental stress. At the end of the first semester the students in certain classes graded and the more brilliant placed in a section by themselves. They required to do special work.

Auctioneer Doing a Thriving Business in England Just at Present Ancient estates are being sold under the hammer because their own cannot continue to pay the taxes upon them. The auctioneer is doing living business in my country just at present. Of course, taxes are partly responsible for this condition.

The auctioneer is doing a thriving business in my country just at present. Of course, taxes are only partly responsible for this condition. The increased cost of upkeep, an outgrowth of the high cost of labor of all kinds, is another big factor in driving many of the older families off land they have long held. One of the biggest estates which will soon go in this way is that of the duke of Portland. The duke recently called all his tenants together and announced that his family finds it impossible to continue in possession of his vast estate, Welbeck Abbey. In this instance the death duty (inheritance tax) will serve to dispossess the heirs. As Welbeck Abbey is valued at more than $10,000,000, the tax thereon, when it passes from the duke to his heirs, will be somewhere in the neighborhood of 45 per cent. The duke of Bedford is another complainant. He recently made the statement that he is losing $25,000 a year by holding on to his properties. Under such circumstances it is not surprising to see these places sold at auction. Touring by Automobile to Get a Rest From Travel by Railroad Train By STANLEY DAWSON, Veteran Circus Man. Remember the story about the boy who had been rescued from a shipwreck after being in water nearly all day? When he got home, his father, in order to show him a good time, took him to Coney Island—swimming. That just about fits what I'm doing. After spending nine months out of the year, for twenty-five years, on a sleeping car attached to a circus, I find the best reaction is in another method of travel. I am touring in an automobile. It is delightful. A friend and I have lolled along in our car for nearly 6,000 miles, and the freedom has been wonderful; to say nothing of the air. No conductors, no porters continually brushing us off, no last calls for dinner. Columbus must have felt like this after his great discovery. For years, while riding on trains, I've watched and envied fellow beings touring in autos. To get a rest, I've reversed the situation. It is the sport of kings. In a day or so, we are going to pump up the tires, step on the gas, start out for 6,000 more miles and give trains and sleeping cars the laugh. Announcing the Consolidation Phillips & CREDIT JEWELERS, AND Kortz Jew 931 15TH The Kortz Jewelry Company has been doing a strictly cash business in Denver for the past twenty-eight years. They are well and favorably known for their unquestionable business methods, their high-grade line of jewelry and their consistent value-giving policy. As conclusive evidence that Diamonds, Watches and Jewelry can be purchased just as low on credit terms as for cash, the entire stock of the KORTZ Jewelry Company will be sold at the same prices, on liberal terms at which it formerly was priced for cash. Henceforth the-business will be known as THE KORTZ JEWELRY COMPANY, located at 931 15th Street, between Curtis and Champa. THE Kortz Jewelry Co. Your Credit Is Good BOULDER, COLO., NEWS. Well! Well! Well! We are still alive although some may have thought their time had about arrived while we had our past cold snap. Let me tell you, it was cold. Real cold, too. We blew our fingers more than once. It was reported to be 18 below Wednesday morning, the 18th of this month. We realize it was much colder at some other places, but we are thankful it was no lower than 18; at least we never heard of it. We have had some sick. Mrs. Denton has been sick, but is better. Mrs. Finley is some better. Mrs. Allen is on the mend. Miss Winn, Miss Anderson and Miss Roberts are still improving. Mr. Rucker has not been feeling good but says he feels better. Mr. White is up and around again. Friday, the 20th of this month, the superintendent, Mrs. Mary White, with the assistance of friends, gave the members of the Sunday School a reception. They organized a choir and elected officers. Every one enjoyed themselves immensely. The Sunday School is growing in interest and attendance. They are alive. There are not so many in numbers, but those that do attend are real interested in the work. Mrs. White, the superintendent, needs worthy mention of her work. She has the burden of the work. She is zealous, dependable, and best of all she is a real honest to goodness Christian woman, and it takes all of these qualities to make a success in Christian Endeavor. She also has the determination to fight against heavy odds, great obstacles, and many discouraging and heart-rending experiences. Again, we repeat Mrs. Mary White deserves worthy mention for her commendable work. The young people of Boulder organized a Literary, Debating and Dramatic Art Club Friday, the 20th of this month. We wish them every success. We trust they make it a go. They can succeed. It is in our young people the qualities to make success. Keep the good work up. Something that will be a credit to the race and community. The young people are giving Mrs. Ollie Pollard a birthday surprise party Monday evening, the 23rd. At the Baptist Church Sunday, being the fourth Sunday in the month, the evening services were conducted by a layman. Mr. Brickler, from Denver, spoke on a very interesting subject, "The Church and Industry." Everyone enjoyed the remarks. Rev. Jackson spoke from the fourth chapter of Hosea and the 1-6 verses, Sunday morning. He warned the people to flee the wrath to come, to draw nigh to God that the approval of God might rest upon them. He preached a wonderful sermon. Rev. Carter of Allen Chapel spoke Sunday night from the subject of "Sanctification." His remarks were enjoyed. Sanctification is one thing that the people of God need to go on to perfection. God wants His saints to be sanctified, consecrated and set apart for the service of the Master. That subject needs to be preached on more that the people of God might enjoy the privileges of salvation. Mrs. Washington has been sick for the past week, but she is still on the mend. She says her trust is still in God. Ravmond 235 FOSTER BLDG. THE jewelry Co. STREET Big Sister's Command. Margaret, though scarcely older, was almost constantly at the side of her brother, William, ready to impart her knowledge of this great world for his special benefit. When mother left for downtown shopping and gave baby the usual bye-bye, he seemed much amazed at all the excitement until Margaret came to the rescue with "Wag your hand, William." World's Debt to American Sailor. The famous Wind and Current Charts, published by Lieut. Maury, of the United States navy, in the middle of the last century, were immensely valuable to mariners in pointing out the quickest and safest routes for sailing vessels.

Roy and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Franklin returned to Denver last Sunday after a pleasant holiday visit throughout the South and Middle West. They report a wonderful trip. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Barnes wish to announce the marriage of their son, Gillespie Barnes, to Miss Eva Brown. They will be at home to their friends after Feb. 1, at 2333 Ogden street. Counsellor E. P. Blakemore rendered the Race a distinct service on Wednesday morning of this week, when he caused some grotesque signs and pictures to be removed from the walls of one of our school rooms. A minstrel show had been planned and many hideous sketches had been drawn by the pupils for advertising purposes. GLEE CLUB IN DEMAND. The Denver Colored Glee Club, a high-class musical organization under direction of Shirley Liggins of Boston, is beginning to reap a harvest from the signal hit made before the Denver Civic and Commercial Association some months ago. They have several important engagements ahead of them now that promises profitable returns. Many of our most talented musicians and singers are members of the organization. A PLEASANT FUNCTION When Charles Cochrane entered upon his duties as chief deputy in the office of the clerk and recorder of Denver county last Monday he was accorded a welcome seldom given a public official. The many employés secretly planned a banquet in honor of the popular official and it was a feast enjoyed by all. It is in this office that we have three worthy race representatives in the persons of Mrs. Ida De Priest, Mrs. Mary Bolden and Mrs. Faytie McClain who have made good in every way. They each took a leading part in Monday's festivities and Mrs. De Priest delivered an address that brought her strong commendation from every one present. We are eminently proud of our ladies who have acquitted themselves so nobly in the clerk and recorder's office. WEDDING ANNIVERSARY DINNER In honor of their first wedding anniversary, Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Broils entertained twenty-two of their friends to a most elaborate dinner Sunday afternoon, Jan. 22, at the residence of Mrs. Sarah Fletcher Land, 1639 East Twenty-second avenue.

Weston, Mr. and Mrs. Chester Stell, Mr. and Mrs. Price, Mr. and Mrs. T. Simpson, Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Contee, Mr. and Mrs. Jos. D. D. Rivers, Mr. and Mrs. Land, Mrs. Sadie McClain, Mrs. P. Gratton, Mrs. G. Carriss, Miss L. Jackson, Mr. Hamilton and Mr. James Woolridge. THE VESPER SERVICES. The popular Vesper Services being conducted at the Church of the Redeemer are proving to be the last word in helpful church services. The program rendered last Sunday evening was a veritable treat. It was Health Service evening and notable addresses were made by Drs. Spratlin, Terry and Huff. The musical numbers were also far above the ordinary, the Morrison Trio and Gene Montgomery rendering beautiful selections. A piano solo of decided merit was offered by Miss Higgins of the Dtnver Conservatory of music and Mrs. Sonora Maxwell sang a solo in her usual charming manner. Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook was master of ceremonies. THE DENVER COLORED CIVIC ASSOCIATION. The regular monthly meeting of the Denver Colored Civic Association will be held Wednesday evening, Feb. 1, at 8 p. m. at Odd Fellows Hall, 2630 Welton street. Father H. E. Rahming of the Church of the Redeemer will deliver the address of the evening. All members are urgently requested to be present to hear this able and eloquent speaker.

Elizah Jackson never does things in a half-hearted manner, so when on Tuesday afternoon he arranged for Mrs. Georgia Conte to accompany his estimable wife to witness a production of Monto Cristo he proceeded to "fix things" as only "Lige can fix them. At 7:30 Mrs. Jackson and Mrs. Conte returned home to find the house brilliantly lighted, with a table laden with a sumptuous dinner, around which was seated: Mesdames Geo. Robinson, Joseph Gaines, Geo. W. Gross, Geo. W. Brooks, J. Clayton Myers, Robt. Bryant, Tiny Newman and Essex De Priest. The surprise was complete and Mrs. Jackson after exclaiming "The World is Mine," proceeded to enjoy the dinner in a manner peculiar to herself and astonishing to all those around her. •Cards followed the dinner and a general good time indulged in. NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH. The Home Like Church. Twenty-second and Arapahoe. We were wonderfully blessed in last Sunday's services. With an increasing attendance, Rev. W. J. Brannon of Red Oak, Iowa, preached a wonderful sermon morning and evening. Every one seems to witness and feel the down-nouring of the Holy Spirit. And when the door of the church was opened and the invitation was extended twelve came forward and united with the church, two for baptism. And at the evening service three more joined on their Christian experience. God works in a mysterious way His wonders to perform. Dr. E. M. Cohron of St. Joseph, Mo. is here and will preach for us beginning Sunday, Jan. 29. Dr. Cohron comes to us highly recommended by a host of his friends, white as well as colored, as an able preacher, a wise leader, and a good man who stands for the very best things he has done much for the uplight of our race. Such a man is needed in our city, and will mean much in building up the Baptist denomination. A hearty invitation is extended to all. Come out and hear the Gospel Minister.

The Hi-Y boys had a meeting at the building last Friday evening. The program consisted of games and music and altogether they had a pleasant time. Other social events have been planned for them. The Men's Concert Club has been meeting twice a week for some time, owing to certain engagements ahead. Professor Liggins the leader is greatly pleased with the progress of the club. One sitting by and listening to them might think that they had been under training for a long while. Professor Watson is the club accompanist. The meeting last Sunday afternoon was postponed in order that the men might have the opportunity to hear the Rev. Dr. Ernest Hall at Zion church. We were pleased to see the number of "Y" men who were present. A big checker tournament is being planned—the biggest of the kind ever held. It will be open to all who can play checkers at all.

For when we lost our darling mother, We lost our dearest friend. Sadly missed by her three daughters, Mrs. Katherine C. Johnson, Mrs. Dorothy A. Lervis and Mrs. Eleanor V. Mayo. BUDGET WEEK FOR Y. W. C. A. Mrs. Gertie N. Ross, president of the committee of management of the Phyllis Wheatley branch of the Y. W. C. A., has announced that the "Budget Week" campaign for $35,000 will open Monday morning. Mrs. Ross is major of the Phyllis Wheatley division of workers in the campaign which is being conducted jointly by all branches of the Young Women's Christian association in Denver. Captains who will work with Mrs. Ross are: Mrs. Eliza Green, Mrs. Mary Clinkscale, Miss Ethel Layton, Mrs. Oscar Triplett, Mrs. Zipporah J. Parks, Mrs. L. Bondurant, Mrs. George Contee, Mrs. I. F. Wilson, Miss Isabel Chapman, Mrs. Nellie Jenkins, Mrs. Eliza Dishman, Mrs. Mary Elliston, Mrs. Cora Jackson, Mrs. Mattle P. King and d Mrs. Overton Williams. Other captains and workers will assist later in the week. At a rally meeting Monday evening the workers will report returns of the first day's work, receive campaign supplies and hold an inspirational meeting. Every night following there will be similar meetings at which the reports on the campaign will be received. Miss Jennie Hendrie is general chairman of the campaign throughout the city, and other majors are Mrs. E. Tyler Smith and Mrs. Helen B. Bell. Mrs. Smith will head up home women and Mrs. Bell has charge of the business division. Reports from all departments will be received each noon at the general Y. W. C. A. administration building, 1545 Glenarm street, at luncheon each day next week. A representative of the Phyllis Wheatley branch will attend each day to report for this branch. The campaign which opens Jan. 30 will continue until Feb. 4. The Denver Y, W, C, A. is 99 per cent self-supporting and the goal of the $55,000 is but 9 per cent of the total budget for 1922. The slogan of the campaign is "For Denver and Her Girls." The Phyllis Wheatley branch offers to girls and young women a place to live, nourishing food at low prices, reading rooms, classes, recreation and inspiration. The classes this year include domestic science, physical training, millinery, Bible study and leadership. There is also a glee club, vesper services every Sunday, and an employment bureau. In order to continue all this another year the $55,000 must be raised. THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. Dr. Ernest Hall, Atlanta, one of Georgia's most able and eloquent pastor-evangelists, on the 24th of January, closed a series of two week's meetings at Zion Baptist Church, Denver, Colo., which proved from many points of view one of the most remarkable protracted efforts held in the city in recent years. The meetings, through the wide publicity and the well-known ability of Dr. Hall, from the very beginning, on the 11th of January, secured the instant and enthusiastic response of both the congregation and the public. And notwithstanding the sudden cold wave which came upon the city while the series was at its very height the unusually inclement weather had little effect on attendance which continued on the increase until the close. It was apparent also that the eloquence and power of the minister reached greater and more glorious heights, in spite of the handicap of hoarseness, and during the closing services the great congregations were fairly swept by wave upon wave of spiritual power and pathos. Rarely has an evangelist more completely won and captivated his audiences than has Dr. Hall during these meetings. His pleasing personality, his sympathetic spirit and the evident deep yearning of a warm and tender heart for the salvation of the lost were most potent with both saint and sinner in bringing them closer to God. The church and the community have both been deeply stirred and the evidences of an awakened public conscience give the clearest indications that many of the other congregations will reap rich benefits in the nature of by-products from the spiritual visitation which has so graciously blessed Zion Church at this time. The congregation of Zlon is naturally jubilant as the meeting served the breaking of a spiritual drought from which the church has suffered during the past few years. The many additions, both by baptism and otherwise, have materially strengthened the membership and have given great heart to the loyal following of Dr. Over, the pastor, whose gratitude for the coming of Dr. Hall places him under a weight of lasting obligation. On the closing night the series reached a real climax. The great building was taxed and as the final service was dismissed the great concourse tendered to the visiting minister an ovation which was as unique in its spontaneity as genuine in its heartiness. At 10 o'clock on Wednesday evening, the 24th, Dr. Hall left the city via the Rock Island for his home in Atlanta. On Sunday morning Dr. Over will preach a baptismal sermon after which the rite will be administered to those candidates who will have made themselves ready. Next week the church program will swing back to the general routine. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO. EUNERAL NOTICES. Brown—Walter Brown, 27 years of age, passed away Jan. 19, 1922, at a local hospital.

In This Famous Sale You the Largest Furniture St lars' Worth of New Stoo DR. C. E. TERRY, DISTINGUISHED COLORED PHYSICIAN OF DEN- VER. HIGHLY HONORED. Most encouraging signs of the times, favorable to our colored professional men and the race in general, are seen in the deserving recognition of Dr. C. E. Terry, one of our foremost and capable physicians, by an unsolicited invitation of St. Anthony's Hospital of Denver to become an associate member of their hospital staff with full privileges. This invitation, coming to Dr. C. E. Terry in such a complimentary manner, is a marked distinction and an enviable recognition of his skill as a physician, as well as his high standard of professional ethics. The entire colored citizenry of Denver and the state of Colorado should commend St. Anthony's Hospital and its management for its broad and liberal recognition of our colored professional men. Of course this is not much of a surprise to the knowing ones of our race who have watched the doings of all public institutions in our city, and it can be truthfully said of all the hospitals in our city, St. Anthony's stands out in extending fair and just treatment to suffering humanity regardless of race or color or condition. Since coming to our city a little over four years ago Dr. Terry has made a wonderful impression upon our community by his gentlemanly, unostentious bearing and ability and skill as a physician. He received his degree of A. B. from Lincoln University, Pennsylvania, in 1908, and graduated from the New York Medical College and the Flower Hospital of New York City in 1913 with the degree of Doctor of Medicine, with clinical course at Metropolitan Hospital, Blackwell's Island, New York City. One year ago Dr. Terry was appointed on the official staff of the City and County Hospital by Dr. Sharpley, who is manager of the city Health and Charity Departments, Dr. Sharpley has done things for our people that few men in his position would have done. Regardless of politics or prejudice, race, color or criticism, he fearlessly appointed two colored physicians on the County Hospital staff in the persons of Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook and Dr. C. E. Terry; both of whom have been reappointed for another year in recognition of their faithful and efficient services. Not long ago it was Dr. Sharpley who appointed Dr. Terry as one of the fifteen examining school physicians For this broad-mindedness in Dr. Sharpley in recognizing our worthy colored physicians we heartily commend him, and for the skill and ability displayed by Dr. Terry in bringing to himself such high honors as a physician, we feel proud, and THE COLORADO STATESMAN joins with all our people in congratulating him upon his honors and success attained. 1-Time FEBRUARY FURNI- THE PRICE OF EVERY PIECE IS INCOMPARABLE REDUCED.

The Dyer Anti-Lynching bill passed the House of Representatives Thursday afternoon after one of the most bitter struggles ever witnessed in Congress. Word came to Denver in a telegram as follows: "Washington, D. C., Jan. 26, 1922." George Gross, Governor's Office, Capitol Bldg. Denver, Colorado: Dyer Bill passed three twenty-five today. F. W. PERKINS. Thus the first victory in the most important piece of legislation affecting the rights of the Negro since the passing of the Fifteenth amendment has been won. The Denver Branch has played a great part in this wonderful battle and has been unceasing in its vigilance. Early in the fight Fred W. Perkins and Jno. W. Hardy, former Denver men, were selected to represent the Denver Branch at Washington. Better selections could not have been made, for they have rendered yeoman service. The strain has been terrific but they stayed on the job and gave valuable advice on every stage of progress of the bill. We have hopes that the bill will speedily pass the Senate. The Negro race is richer and better today because of this victory. It is demonstrated that he will fight, and will not be cowed by adverse circumstances. Let Denver citizens do a further duty in the matter and send word of appreciation to all who have aided so energetically. Let Hardy and Perkins hear from you. Give words of thanks to Bishop Irving Johnson, Bishop Ingley, Governor Shoup, Mayor Bailey, Dean A. C. Peck, Jno. F. Vivian and Mrs. Ollie Redd of Cheyenne. They proved to be our friends in the needed hour. Has Idea for Storing Power As a cheap method of storing the intermittent power that nature produces in the tides, the sun's radiation, the wind and the waves of the sea, a Romanian engineer suggests that this energy be converted into compressed air and stored in subterranean chambers that are formed by penetrating below air-tight layers of clay by artesian wells.

"Twilight and evening bell And after that the dark, And may there be no sadness of fare- well, When I embark." GRAPE JUICE DISHES We associate grape juice with tink- ling glasses of cooling ice drinks, but a drink of hot grape juice after a chilling ride in the winter, or after a fatiguing day is splendid as a tonic and valu- able as a food. The many grape juice after a chilling ride in the winter, or after a fatiguing day is splendid as a tonic and valuable as a food. The many grape cures all over the country have been recognized as most healthful resorts. For variety a clove or two or an inch stick of cinnamon may be heated in the grape juice and it should be served piping hot. Jellied Grape Juice Salad.—Prepare a package of pineapple, orange or lemon gelatin, using but one cupful of water, then add when cool one cupful of grape juice. When this begins to congeal add one and one-half cupfuls of diced canned or fresh fruit, including some halved Malaga grapes. Place in lightly oiled molds and when firm unmold on lettuce leaves, with a few halved grapes for garnish and honey salad dressing or a mayonnaise made rich with cream. Ham Baked in Grape Juice.—Scrub a medium sized ham and plunge into boiling water containing two tablespoonfuls of mixed spices. Simmer gently until done—about three hours for a ten pound ham. Remove from the water and peel off half of the skin, leaving the remainder to keep the ham moist. Place the ham in a baking pan and dust the portion of the exposed fat with sugar and dried bread crumbs; pour over one-half cupful grape juice. Around the ham place greening apples well scrubbed. Add one cupful of grape juice, one cupful of water and one-fourth of a cupful of sugar. Bake until the apples are tender. Baste the apples occasionally with grape juice and serve on a platter well garnished with lemon, olives and celery. Thicken the grape juice in the pan with one tablespoonful of flour to one cupful of the juice and serve as a sauce with the ham. Grape Juice and Banana Dessert.— Whip one cupful of heavy cream until stiff, add one-third of a cupful of grape juice, three tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar and a pinch of salt. Serve over sliced bananas. We may live without love—what is passion but pining? But where is the man that can live without dining?—Owen Meredith. WHAT TO EAT When serving duck, garnish the fowl with slices of orange, unpeeled, and garnish with sprigs of parsley. Orange and Rhubarb Ice. Combine one cupful of orange juice with three and one-half cupfuls of cooked springs of parsley, Orange and Rhubarb Ice.— Combine one cupful of orange juice with three and one-half cupfuls of cooked, fables. sifted rhuharb, a tablespoonful of lemon juice and the grated rind of an orange and one and three-quarter cupfuls of sugar. Stir until well dissolved and freeze as usual. As a salad, sliced thin and marinated with French dressing and heaped with, shredded celery and tart cherries, mixed with dressing and served on lettuce. A very pretty salad may be made, using alternate sections of grapefruit and orange with an equally sized section of red apple, with the skin left on. Serve on lettuce and with any well-tiked dressing. Cornmeal and Prune Pudding.—Bring one quart of milk to the boiling point; sprinkle in three-quarters of a cupful of cornmeal and cook until smooth and thick, stirring constantly. Add one-half teaspoonful of salt, one-half cupful of sugar, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, two eggs, well-beaten, and one and one-half cupfuls of stewed prunes, cut in pieces. Pour into a well greased baking dish and bake until firm. Serve with hot cream or hot milk, or a lemon sauce. Apple and Cranberry Roll.—Make a rich biscuit dough; roll out and cover with one cupful of chopped apples, sugared and flavored with nutmeg. Roll up and bake one-half hour. Then pour over some cranberry sauce and bake ten minutes longer. Any fruit or canned fruit juice may be used in place of the cranberries. Walnut Candy.—Put one cupful of brown sugar into a saucepan; add one-quarter of a cupful of water, a pinch of cream of tartar; when it has boiled clear add one-quarter of a cupful each of molasses and corn sirup and one tablespoonful of butter. Boil until it becomes brittle when dropped in cold water. Have ready a well buttered platter, into which pour the mixture. Sprinkle it with an eighth of a "easpoonful of powdered tartaric acid and put a few walnut meats in a heap in the middle. With a buttered wooden spoon keep folding the edges over to the middle until the nuts are well mixed. Then butter the hands and a pair of scissors and pull as soon as possible. Cut into small pieces. CAUCUS ORDERS BONUS RUSHED REPUBLICAN MEMBERS OF HOUSE ADOPT RESOLUTION TO DRAFT MEASURE. MET NO OPPOSITION METHOD FOR RAISING REVENUE FOR BONUS NOT DISCUSSED AT CONFERENCE. (Western Newspaper Union News Service.) Washington.—Early action in the House on a soldiers' bonus bill was forecast when Republican members at a caucus adopted a resolution instructing the ways and means committee to frame a bonus bill and declaring that once reported the measure should be the continuing order of business until passed. No opposition to the resolution developed. While ways of raising necessary revenue for a bonus were discussed, it was said, no instructions were given the ways and means committee as to what revenue raising provisions should be placed in the bill. Members were generally of the opinion that it would be advisable for the committee first to thresh out this point and leave the Republican membership of the House privileged after the bill is accepted to caucus again particularly on that feature. Sentiment was expressed, it was said, in favor of making the cash provisions less attractive and those providing for insurance and home and farm aid a more desirable option. Several members were said to have urged that cash payments be somewhat reduced so that more veterans would be inclined to take advantage of other benefits. This, it was said, would require less initial revenue. Incidentally several ways of providing necessary revenue were suggested, among them a sales tax, issuance of bonds secured by the foreign debt and use of interest paid in by nations indebted to the United States. Chairman Fordney of the ways and means committee assured his colleagues that his committee would act with dispatch. Hearings, he said, would begin in a day or two with the prospect that they would be brief and that the bill would be reported very soon. Mr. Fordney, it was said, gave no indication as to how revenue might be raised, although it was said he told the caucus that President Harding was not opposed to a bonus, provided a way of financing the project could be worked out without disturbing the finances of the country. The resolution adopted was presented by Representative Reece, Tennessee, a former service man. To Probe Propaganda. Washington.—Congressional investigation of charges that an "extensive campaign of propaganda" has been waged, both in the United States and Mexico, by "agents and representatives of certain American oil interests" for the purpose of "dfscrediting the present government of Mexico and preventing its recognition by the United States" was called for in a resolution introduced by Representative Connolly, Democrat. Big Addition to Steel Plant. New York. — Notwithstanding that the plants of the corporation are running at only one-third their normal capacity, the board of directors of the Bethlehem Steel Corporation voted to appropriate $25,000,000 for the construction of additional works. Woman Watches Man Hang Himself. Philadelphia.—Leo Sweeney, a young landscape gardener, committed suicide, according to the police, by hanging himself with a belt to a bedpost while Mrs. May Kraus, a young married woman, sat and watched, believing it a joke. Once before he had shammed death, the woman was reported to have told the authorities, and this time she thought his toes were touching the floor and that he was in no danger of choking. Finally, becoming alarmed, she ran to the man's side, saw that he was strangling and cut him down. He was dead when the police arrived. Irish Continue British Boycott. Paris.—The boycott of British goods by the Irish race throughout the world until Ireland gains absolute independence was the principal subject of discussion at the session of the world congress of the Irish race. The tendency of the congress, manifested a few days ago by the passage of a resolution committing the new international league to support of Eamon de Valera's republican principles, was again in evidence in discussion. Elies High While Wife Is Gone San Francisco, Calif.—William M. Le Moyne, 72, Chicago business man, reached San Francisco by airplane from Long Beach, Calif. In a second plane was a secretary and several hundred pounds of baggage. Le Moyne, who came to California to attend a convention, said he determined to have a trip in an airplane "while the wife wasn't around to object." "High flying certainly appeals to me," was his exclamation when he climbed from the machine.

JWe Can Print Anything and Do It Right PROPER FILLING MEALS FOR BOYS It Is Normal and Absolutely Nec- essary That Youngsters Eat Heartily. WISE MOTHER NOT WORRIED Youth Uses Tremendous Amount of Energy and Often Requires More Food Than Moderately Ac- tive Man at Work. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) The average boy between twelve and twenty. is apt suddenly to develop extraordinary predatory habits toward the pantry and Ice box, even when his mother fondly believes she has provid- ed him with good filling meals, a prop- erly balanced diet, and a few luxuries besides It becomes difficult to keep a box of crackers or raisins or any easily pocketed fruits on hand—cake, doughnuts, or even plain bread. Rare is the home where the boy in his early teens does not come in from school clamoring for food, no matter how many sandiches and cookies were tucked In his lunch box. Give Him an After-School Lunch. The wise mother Is not unduly alarmed by these manifestations. In- stead of worrying for fear her boy 1s becoming a hopeless thief, she sets out for him an extra after-school lunch of milk and perhaps buns, cookies, doughnuts, ple, or fruit. She will then expend her mental energy in a careful examination: of the calorle- content of the food he actually eats to see that it is adequate to his needs ‘at this important growing period. It has been found by studying the many sandwiches and cookies were considerable stress is Iald on physical development that a boy between hi ; 1 ai aS \ u ia aN td Oe “1m Always Hungry, Mother, When | Get Home From School.” twelve and twenty may eat even more than his father, {f the Jatter does only moderately active work. The boy uses a tremendous amount of energy, and at the same time is often growing faster each year than at any other period since habyhood. ‘Three and a half inches annual increase in height is not unusual at this age. Cereal Foods Satisfy. The United States Department of Agriculture has worked out simple ta- bles showing how many pounds of or- dinary foods give the most calories per week, and how many hundred: calorie portions are contained in a pound or other measure by which foods are bought. Calories are the units by which energy, or the power to do work, is measured. The average person over twelve years of age requires 27 hundred-cal- orle portions of food a day, or about 190 a week. This is true of a man or a boy using little muscular energy in work or play, or of a woman or girl who uses a good deal. A very active man or boy may need as much as 40 hundred-calorie portions .a day, or 280 in a week. ‘These must be dis- tributed among the five food groups, so that fruits and vegetables furnish about one-fifth, protein-rich food an. other fifth; fats and fat foods a fifth; cereal foods, such as bread, and foods made of flour, rice, cornmeal and oth- er cereals, three-tenths; sweets, one- tenth. Inexpensive Material. In the family of moderate means the problem often 1s to provide a quantity of good inexpensive satis- fying material from each group, rath- er than articles calling for high- priced ingredients or delicate cook- ery. Most boys prefer doughnuts to pound cake; dumplings and lots of gravy please better than small por- tions of expensive meat cuts. Milk in large quantities helps body building and growth by the protein, lime, and vitamines that {t supplies; while suc- culent vegetables, salads, tomatoes, oranges, and other fruits furnish the indispensable vitamines as well as bulk. Active boys crave and require plenty of butter, bacon or other sources of fat. They are also notor- lously greedy with sweet things, like jam, honey, candy, and sweet desserts, ‘and there is no harm in these sugar foods \f they are served at the right filme and providing all of them to- gether do not furnish more than 10 per cent of energy of the total food ‘nad. an indicated ahova: Be Made With Cornmeal! Almost everyone likes sour- milk biscuits, Those made with cornmeal may be new to some housekeepers. Cornmeal Biscuits. 1% cupfuls corn- 1 ta ble spoonful meal, fat. 2 “cupfule sour 1 teaspoonful salt. milk. 2 cane. 1 "teaspoonful 1 ta bie spoonful soda. water. Heat together the cornmeal, sour milk, fat, and salt In a dou- ble boller for ten minutes. When cool, add the well-beaten eggs and the soda dissolved in the water. Bake in small pans that will give a large amount of crust. The kind used for “fin- ger” rolls is best. Buckwheat Can Be Used in Quick Bread. Not all buckwheat cakes are made on the griddle. This is good if served hot. Buckwheat Breakfast Cake. 2 cupfuls buck- 2 cupfule sour wheat flour, _ milk % cupful short- 1 teaspoonful ening. soda. % tea spoontul salt. Mix and bake in a flat pan £0 that the cake is about 1% inches thick when done. Cut in squares and serve hot like corn bread. FIRELESS COOKER IS ALWAYS ECONOMICAL Number of Dishes Prepared in It Can Be Increased. Recipe for Creole Chicken Recom mended for Fuel-Saving Device (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Many get in the habit of using thelr fireless cooker for only 2 few: dishes. It is well for variety, as well as econ- omy’s sake, to increase the number of dishes prepared in it. The following recipe for creole chicken Is recom- mended for fireless cookers by home economists of the United States De- partment of Agriculture: Creole Chicken. 1 medium-sized % cupful chopped towl. ‘onion. 2 cupfuls tomato. % cupful rice. 1 cupful okra. T teaspoonful salt. 1 cupful chopped 1 cupful boiling wa- sweet peppers. ter. 1 tablespoonful tat. Dress the fowl and cut into jointe. Melt the fat, add onion and pepper. Cook for a few minutes to develop fia- yor. Then add salt, tomato, and okra, and simmer for ten minutes. Place layers of the chicken, vegetable mix- ture, and rice in cooking vessel until all is used. Pour over this one cup- ful boiling water. Simmer for one- half hour and put in fireless cooker for ‘three hours without hot disk or two hours with it. Additional sea- soning of ham or bacon, parsley, and bay leaf may be used. A ham bone may be substituted for the ham or bacon. If this is done, boll it for one- half hour in enough water to cover. ‘Then add one cupful of the ham broth to the tomato before cooking it with the bay leaf. ‘This recipe offers a good way to use chicken-soup mixture. When necessary, thicken the broth with a lttle browned flour before putting the chicken into the cooker. PROPER FOOD COMBINATIONS Diet Made Up of Right Proportions ef Starch, Fat and Sugar Will Be Satisfactory. In addition to an understanding of the five food groups, !t is well to know what proportions to use of the foods in each group, the United States Department of Agriculture points out. As a rule, the diet will be sufficiently bulky and flavorful and will furnish the right proportions of starch, fat, and sugar for the taste of most people if the vegetables and fruits furnish about 20 per cent of the fuel; the milk, meat, eggs and similar foods, 20 per cent; the cereal foods, 380 per cent; sweets, 10 per cent; and fats and fat foods, 20 percent. A diet made up on these proportions will also fur- nish satisfactory kinds and amounts of protein, mineral substances and vie All Around a.

FOOD FOR THE FAMILY During the winter when more fat and heartier foods are used, we must consider the serving of foods that keep the —=_ = body in good con. dition, Dried Fruits as Food. —Figs, prunes apricots raisins and = peaches are cured by slow evapora- von and only long soaking restores the juiciness, then a slow cooking will give & dish of delectable fruit; often no sugar need be added. Figs because of their fine seeds are best never served alone in any quantity, but cut up with other foods, such as fruits and cereals, All dried fruits should be carefulfy looked over and washed, then put to soak in water and the same water used for the slow cooking; thus none of the valuable fruit acids and salts are lost. Graham Pudding With Figs.—Take one-fourth of a cupful of softened fat, add one-half cupful of molasses, one- half cupful of sour milk, one egg well beaten, then one and one-half cup- fuls of graham flour well mixed with three-fourths of a teaspoonful of soda, one-half teaspoonful of salt; mix all the Ingredients and turn Into a but- tered mold after adding one cupful of finely cut figs. Steam three hours and serve with an egg sauce, using the yolks of two eggs well beaten, sugar, inilk and flavoring to taste. Celery With Cheese.—Take the outer stalks of celery, cut in half inch pleces and cook untll tender, saving the liquor to add to the white sauce. Prepare a white sauce using ‘two tablespoonfuls each of butter and flour, one cupful of milk and ao half cupful of the celery liquor; cork until thick. Put a layer of the white sauce then a layer of celery and a generous layer of cheese in a well buttered baking dish, repeat and bake in the oven until well heated through. Serve from the dish. If well seasoned with salt, paprika and pepper if liked, this makes a most appetizing and whole- some dish. | GROCERIES AND MEATS Fresh Vegetables and Fruits Daily : Does your friend trade with us?
