HAMPTON, Va., Feb. 10, 1922.—That suspicion and lack of confidence between races breed hatred, retrogression, and war; that confidence and faith breed friendship, progress, and peace—these two thoughts underlay the Hampton Institute Founder's Day address, which was recently delivered by the Rev. Dr. Anson Phelps Stokes of New York, former secretary of Yale University, secretary of the Phelps-Stokes Fund, and well-known author of religious and historical pamphlets and books, to a large and appreciative audience of white and colored citizens that assembled in Ogden hall to pay tribute to the contribution which Gen. Samuel Chapman Armstrong, who founded Hampton Institute in 1868 and served as its principal until his death in 1893, had wisely made, not only to Negro and Indian education in the United States, but also to education throughout the world. "Human Improvability Under the Influence of Education, Work and Religion" was Doctor Stokes' theme.
Dr. James E. Gregg, in introducing Doctor Stokes, referred to the distinguished visitor as a life-long friend of Hampton Institute, as a scholar and writer, as a discerning philanthropist, and as a great administrative officer of a great university, who has generously served others and won well-merited honor.
Need of Racial Understanding.
Need of Racial Understanding.
"The white man," said Doctor Stokes, basing his faith on the wonderful progress of the black man during three centuries, must follow his own wisest leaders in the South in showing more faith in the improvability of the Negro. Similarly the black man must increase his faith in the improvability of the average white man's attitude to wards inter-racial problems and needs, basing his faith on the slowly but steadily growing fairness of the white man towards him, and especially the advocacy of his rights to equal treatment before the law by that far-sighted and increasing group of southerners such as Curry, McFever, Mitchell, Dillard, Alderman, Jackson Davis, Weatherford, Eagan, Alexander and Bickett, co-operating with sympathetic northerners such as Howard, Ogden, Butrick, Frissell, McKenzie, Hubbard, Ware and Gregg, and supported more and more by the independent press of the South. There will, of course, be differences of honest opinion, both as to what is possible and desirable; there will be no lack of honest criticism; the debate will not cease, but let the whole discussion of inter-racial matters be carried on in the hopeful spirit of good-will.
Evidence of Negro Progress.
Evidence of Negro Progress.
"That the Negro in just over half a century should have increased his homes owned from 12,000 to 650,000, of farms operated from 20,000 to 1,000,000, of businesses conducted from 2,100 to 60,000, of literacy from 10 to 80 per cent, of teachers from 600 to 43,000, of voluntary contributions to education from $8,000 to $2,700,000, of churches from 700 to 45,000, of Sunday School pupils from 50,000 to 2,250,000, of church property from $1,500,000 to $900,000,000—this is an extraordinary record full of reassurance to those who like to believe in human improvability.
"During this difficult period of adjustment the Negro has maintained his religious faith and increased his thrift, improved his capacity as a skilled workman, developed self-reskilled workman, developed self-reeducational opportunities have been suitable and adequate, strengthened his character and his capacity for the wise leadership of his own people.
"The Negro's actual progress in the past is my ground for faith in his still greater progress in the future—especially now that inter-racial committees of the wisest men of both races in nearly a thousand localities are meeting regularly throughout this great Southland to discuss frankly specific local problems of race relationships.
This is indeed a harbinger of promise. Armstrong's Faith Is Justified.
"What makes General Armstrong's connection with Hampton unique is that here for the first time education, work, and religion, broadened and virtualized, were brought together in a large, competently directed institution for the development of backward arms. Armstrong believed in the improvability of the Negro and the Indian under the three great forces of education, work, and religion, and the experience of fifty years has justified his faith. The school has modified and must continue to modify its curriculum from time to time, but these foundation principles are fundamental and, fortunately, adjustable to all needs."
George Foster Peabody of New York, who is the senior member of the Hampton Institute board of trustees, declared that "the faith which is the foundation of the Christian religion was forcefully, brilliantly and engagingly manifest in the life of General Armstrong and in the life of his great successor, Dr. Hollis B. Frissell." He paid a warm tribute to the service which Doctor Frissell rendered so abundantly to educational leaders in this and other countries. "We all need," he said, "the element of faith in one another."
Sympathy and Co-operation Bring Results.
Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute and a trustee of Hampton, quoted J. H. Oldham's recent statement, made before the International Missionary Conference at Mohok, that Hampton Institute is doing more to influence work in the missionary field than any other single effort.
Doctor Moton also paid tribute to the service which General Armstrong, Dr. Frissell, Booker T. Washington, and their associates had rendered through fifty-odd years to education, not only in the United States, but throughout the world, in liberating men's souls by working in faith and co-operation with unprivileged peoples.
"Doctor Frissell," he said, "believed in men and believed that, when they understood each other and had faith and belief in each other, they could work together, for each other, with each other, to bring forward in a real sense the kingdom of God in the earth. "No race, no class, no people were too mean or too poor or too black or too red or too brown for General Armstrong's belief and sympathy and his willingness to help them. He rejoiced in the fact at one time that Hampton had a girdle around the world, composed of its student body—Polynesian, native African, American Negro, Indian, Chinese, Japanese. He was glad to be of service to distant nations in distant parts of the globe."
W. Cameron Forbes, well-known banker of Boston, and a trustee of Hampton, spoke on "The Problem of the Phillippines," and the Rev. Chester B. Emerson of Detroit, another trustee, paid a tribute to General Armstrong as a doer of good deeds.
Endorsed.
The board of trustees of Hampton Institute sent a telegram to Secretary Weeks, urgently requesting him "in the interest of the agricultural and industrial development of the South strongly to recommend to Congress the acceptance of the so-called Ford offer of the Muscle Shoals development." The trustees present included George Foster Peabody and Clarence H. Kelsev of New York, Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee, W. Cameron, Forbes of Boston, James E. Gregg, principal of Hampton, Alexander B. Trowbridge of New York, Frank W. Darling of Hampton, Chester B. Emerson of Detroit, Samuel C. Mitchell of Richmond, and Henry Wilder Foote of Cambridge.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN, whose cut appears above, was the Sixteenth President of the United States. He was born in Hardin County, Kentucky, February 12, 1809. From his birth, in circumstances of poverty, Lincoln typified not only the best in American citizenship, but demonstrated the brilliant possibilities of American institutions for the humblest person. Lincoln's most marked characteristic was the accuracy with which he understood the American people. He was thoroughly honest and conquered by the power of truth. His great instinctive powers put him in a class by himself. He was a living, moving, spiritual patriot, an administrator of justice and a firm lover of liberty. Our celebration, then, of his birthday is a naturally inherent American trait. We worship at the shrine of his unapproachable greatness. Therefore, in pursuance to a proclamation issued by the Governor of our state, let us respond to a prayerful, thoughtful observance of the anniversary of the great martyred President, and that on Sunday, February 12, we join with him in the high resolve that "this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that the government of the people, for the people and by the people shall not perish from the earth."
High Tennessee Court to Prove Family's Color
Memphis, Tenn., Feb. 3.—Angered and stung because the district directors have barred his children from attending school, on the ground that they are "Negroes," Jefferson Black of Montgomery county has filed in the State Supreme Court an appeal from the Montgomery County Court, where his petition for a mandamus was denied. He also asks $500 damages. Featuring as it does the color issue, the case has attracted considerable attention. Black's children are dark, but they have not associated with any but white people. It is not known how the first objection to them originated.
The transcript sent to the Supreme Court, one of the most voluminous ever filed in the court, contains 301 typewritten pages, 31 depositions and 16 exhibits, including the photographs of the children and their parents. The depositions cover the family genealogy for three generations and state the children have a small stamp of Cherokee blood.

Says U. S. Negro Population Now Is 10,381,308
Says U. S. Negro Population Now Is 10,381,308
Washington, Jan. 23.—The extent of Negro migrations from the South to the North and West is shown in statistics of the 1920 census made public today.
The total number of Negroes born and living in the United States proper on January 1, 1920, was 10,381,309. The number of Southern born Negroes living in the North and West increased from 440,534 in 1910, to 780,794 in 1920.
The greater increase in Negro inhabitants among the Northern and Western cities in the ten years are shown by New York, Philadelphia, Chicago (100 per cent), Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Detroit (800 per cent), Los Angeles and Indianapolis. In 1910-1920, the Negro population of New York increased from 97,709 to 152,467, of whom 80,116 were females and 72,351 males. Philadelphia, second largest in Negro population, jumped from 84,459 to 139,229. In 1910 the Negro population of Chicago was 44,103; in 1920 it was 109,458. If the above figures are true, the colored population has in the United States grown but little in the last decade.

N. A. A. C. P. Fights for Negro in N. Y. School History Books
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that its associate field secretary, William Pickens, had appeared at an investigation in New York City on the rewriting of history books. The following account of Mr. Picken's testimony before the commissioner of accounts of New York is taken from the New York World:
"William Pickens of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People made a plea that the part played by Negroes be included in American history.
"I went through public schools,' he said, 'and graduated from Yale and was a grown man before I ever learned that it was a black man who shot Major Pitcairn at Bunker Hill, or that one man out of every ten at the Battle of Lake Erie was black, or that in the war of 1812 there were many black men behind the American parapet of cotton bales, or that George Washington had hundreds of colored soldiers, or that Abraham Lincoln said that without the 200,000 black troops on the northern side they never would have won.
"For the sake of good feeling between black and white that is essential, I want our histories to show the part that colored soldiers played in the great war."
Fugitive Bullock Freed in Canada
Matthew Bullock, colored, whom the state of North Carolina sought to have returned to that state from Hamilton, Ontario, in Canada, whither he had fled, has been freed, according to announcement made today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York.
A telegram from Canada, announcing the liberation was received at the national office of the N. A. A. C. P., reading as follows:
"Bullock is freed. J. D. Howell."
This means that the Canadian government has declined to deport Bullock as the state of North Carolina, through the United States Department of State, had requested. The N. A. A. C. P. was prepared, in the event that Bullock was returned to United States territory from Canada, to fight his extradition to Norlina, North Carolina, on the ground that he would be lynched, as his brother was a year ago.
As evidence of the state of feeling in North Carolina, the N. A. A. C. P. is in possession of the following editorial from the Durham, N. C. Sun of Jan. 24, 1922:
"Governor Morrison of North Carolina assures Canada that Bullock will be in no danger if he returns to this state. Depend upon it, however, if Bullock does come back it won't be because of Governor Morrison's assurance. A North Carolina nigger who has killed his white man knows more about a white man's uncertainty when fooling with a hair trigger than any chief executive that ever reigned in Raleigh."
It is because of this state of mind in North Carolina that the N. A. A. C. P. sent its assistant secretary, Walter F. White, to Canada to help in the fight against Bullock's deportation.

NEGRO COULD NOT BURY JEW
NEGRO COULD NOT BURY JEW
St. Louis, Mo., Jan. 27.—The body of Jacob Bronstein, Jew, 56 years old, a cabinet maker, was buried last week in Mount Olivet cemetery, a white bit of earth, after his friends had had fear it would be interred by Gates and Manuel in Washington Park cemetery, which is used exclusively for members of a people of Ethiopian extraction.
A writ of replevin was issued by Justice of the Peace Andrew Zazzolo, white, after Gates and Manuel had been notified by Bronstein's step-daughter by telephone to get the body and embalm it, which they accordingly did, the undertakers taking the stand embalming fluid made no discrimination as to the kinds of bodies it preserved. Their bill was $250 for embalming and the casket. Bronstein's friends, when they heard of the dilemma in which they were placed, though the Jew is an appressed race, seemingly succumbed to American prejudice and had the writ issued.
The undertakers informed the Jews they would release the body if their bill was paid. The writ, returnable on Jan. 27th, placed a value of $50 on the body and said it had been damaged $100. A truce was declared and Bronstein buried in a white cemetery. His widow refused to make a statement for the press.
N. Y. Nation Calls Dyer Bill Passage Great Advancement
N. Y. Nation Calls Dyer Bill Passage Great Advancement
The New York Nation, one of the oldest liberal publications of the United States, in its issue of Feb. 8, calls the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill "the most important legal step ever taken toward ending our peculiarly national disgrace." The entire editorial paragraph in the Nation reads as follows:
"The passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill in the House of Representatives by the large majority of 290 to 119 is an achievement. Every American should derive distinct satisfaction from this, the most important legal step ever taken toward ending our peculiarly national disgrace. For this accomplishment the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which for years has lobbied to arouse the American conscience about lynchings and to crystallize public sentiment into effective legislation, deserves full credit. But the fight is not yet won; the bill still has to pass the Senate. Those who feel the sting when Europeans ask, Do you really mean that crowds gather to see men burned alive in America? should give the National Association unstinted support until the bill not only passes the Senate and becomes law, but is enforced."
Those who wish to act in accordance with the suggestion of the Nation, which for more than fifty years has championed the cause of colored Americans, may send donations for the Anti-Lynching Fund of the N. A. A. C. to J. E. Spingarn, treasurer, 70 5th Avenue, New York. Donations of one dollar up will be welcomed.
GAVE WORLD FIRST ICE CREAM.
New York Negro Chef Discovered Summer Refreshment 105 Years Age.
From the Fitchberg Sentinel.
When you next eat ice cream, consider the debt you owe to Sambo Johnson, Negro pastry chef in a New York tavern, who gave the world its first dish of ice cream 105 years ago this month. For years Sambo had a monopoly on the manufacture of ice cream because he kept his process a closely guarded secret. All that is definitely known about his discovery is that it was an accident, and a happy one. It might not be a bad idea to erect a monument somewhere to Sambo. And while about it, surround his memorial with others to the men who gave us the other things that help to make summer endurable — artificial ice, lemonade, refrigerators and fans.
GAIN OF MOVIES IS PARTY'S LOSS
POSTMASTER GENERAL HAYS IN
HIS NEW POSITION MUST
QUIT ACTIVE POLITICS.
REPUBLICANS WILL MISS HIM
Fears of Some Motion Picture Magnates That Their Coming Director Will Be Prudish Are Held to Be Baseless.
By EDWARD B. CLARK
Washington. — The administration has lost a postmaster general to the moving picture industry. When he moves into the movies Will H. Hays must move out of politics.
Possibly it is not generally known that there was not entire accord among the movie picture gentlemen as to the advisability of asking Mr. Hays to take the place which later was offered and accepted. There were two reasons given, by the men who stood partly in opposition, for their belief that it might not be wise to ask the postmaster general to take over the new duties. One of these reasons, and the one which seemed to have the greater weight with those who held it, was that Mr. Hays had been chairman of the Republican national committee, was an intense partisan, and that he believed thoroughly in the widest kind of publicity for party argument and party endeavor.
It is not probable that any of the movie magnates, as they occasionally are called politely or impolitely according to the intent, feared for one instant that Mr. Hays would attempt to help the Republican party through the medium of the movies, but what these magnates did fear was that part of the public which did not believe in Mr. Hays' political party would discover propaganda where no propaganda existed. In other words, some of the movie men feared that an unfounded suspicion of propaganda might develop into tales that the movies were being used improperly, and that these tales could not be overtaken by the facts.
Feared He Might Be Prudish.
A second reason for the disinclination of a few movie men to give entire approval of the plan to call Mr. Hays to the reel, was that they feared he might be "supersensitively moral" concerning the nature of certain pictures which it was intended to present. Nobody knows just how much Mr. Hays will have to do in the way of censorship, but there was apprehension among a small number of promoters of the picture industry that Mr. Hays might see immorality where no immorality existed, and might fail to understand that in order to teach a moral lesson, it might be necessary at times to suggest to the eye that there were immoralities in the world.
Taking the postmaster general's career and, so to speak, running over it, it is easy enough to learn that he never has been a prude, nor has he ever preached that kind of mock morality which finds offense in a woman's unveiled face. It is true that Mr. Hays has been a Bible teacher, and it is also true that he knows the Book which he taught, but it does not follow, perhaps, that because a man knows the Bible, he becomes a religious sentimentalist and is unable to differentiate between propriety and prudery.
The greater number of men who wanted Mr. Havs to take the place which he is to take, hold to the view that the fact that he is the head of affairs would give the great American people to understand that cleanliness would be the order of the movie day.
Party Will Miss Him.
This is a matter outside of the field of politics, but to get back into that field, the Republican party is going to miss sorely the ministrations of Will H. Hays. It is true that he turned over the conduct of affairs political to other persons, but if anybody thinks that he did not remain a force in party matters the individual thinking in the case is all wrong. Postmaster General Hays could not work politically and actively in politics as he did in another day, but he worked nevertheless, and now these activities must be given over and certain Republican leaders and followers are left lamenting.
Of course as the head of the movies, if that is the proper thing to call it, Mr. Hays can take the same interest that any other American takes, or ought to take, in his party's affairs, but it is known that in order to avoid criticism from the public, Mr. Hays must bend his rather slight body backward in an attempt to keep away from a posture which would indicate undue activity along partisan political lines.
On the day that the first committee of movie men came to Washington to talk over their project with the postmaster general, I had luncheon with one of the visitors. He outlined the fears and the hopes of the gentlemen, who that day were in waiting on Mr. Hays. The two elements in the case seemed to be morals and politics. Mr. Hays will remain a moralist, but in one sense he cannot remain a politician. The result seems to be that the moving picture industry gains and the Republican party loses.
For and Against Cabinet Merger.
Congress probably will have before it shortly a proposition to merge the War and Navy departments into one greater office called the department
of national defense. There is, of course, opposition to the proposed change, opposition in congress and in the two departments affected. It is said that the President is favorable to the change. Walter F. Brown, special chairman of the joint congressional committee in charge of governmental reorganization plans, is ready to submit the committee's official report to the Chief Executive. Of course one of the reasons for the appointment of the committee was to secure economy coupled with efficiency in government work. Some of the opponents of the plan to merge the War and Navy departments say that economy may come, but that efficiency will in no wise be enhanced. In fact they say that the reverse will be the case.
There never was any proposal for a change in governmental methods which did not meet with opposition. The proposal about to be made is no exception. It, of course, cannot be told until there has been a trial of the new system whether the opponents of the plan are right or wrong in their contentions. One thing, however, seems to be fairly certain: Congress is to be asked to authorize the change. The uncertain thing is whether or not congress will give its consent to the merger.
Fear Domination by One Branch.
A humanly natural fear on the part of the sallor men, and also on the part of the army men, is that if a merger shall come the activities of one department will be subordinated to the activities of the other and that either the army or navy soon will become the dominating element in the department of national defense. If this new department is created one cabinet officer will be at the head of both war and navy, but he will have an undersecretary for each of the old-time departments. It is probable that the chief will attempt to see to it that nothing of importance and nothing of individuality is lost by either of the merged branches, but necessarily he must be alert to prevent any attempt at domination of one branch by the other.
It is proposed, in addition to the merger which just has been discussed, to establish a department of public welfare which shall include labor and education among its activities. This means that the Department of Labor as such will be abolished.
There is still strong opposition on the part of a good many of the educators of the country to the plan to continue the bureau of education as a bureau. An actual campaign has been in progress for a long time to induce congress to create a department of education with a sent in the cabinet to be occupied by some well known educator.
When the department of welfare was suggested many educators sought and still are seeking to prevent its establishment. They have urged that the welfare activities of the government best can be served within the departments from which they are now directed. Of course education is recognized as welfare work in the highest sense, but as the basis of a nation's well-being is declared to be education, the advocates of a separate department for it hold that it not only deserves, but necessarily should have, the honor of cabinet membership.
If the proposed changes are made following the report of the congressional committee with its non-congressional special chairman, Walter F. Brown, President Harding will have some trials accompanying readjustment of cabinet positions.
President's Forest Proposed.
Here is the title of a resolution which has been introduced into the United States senate by Senator Reed Smoot of Utah:
"Joint resolution creating the President's forest within the present Kailab National forest, Arizona, as a game sanctuary and forest preserve for the benefit and enjoyment of the people."
The forested land which it is proposed to set aside for the uses of the people covers an area of about 300,000 acres, most of it being virgin timberland. Within it there are said to be at least 10,000 deer, of course in a completely wild state. There are no rail facilities within 200 miles and this means that man not yet has had a chance to spoil the land as it came from the hands of nature.
It is said by the proponents of the plan for the setting aside of the President's forest that nature lovers, sportsmen, conservationists of the proper kind, and all persons who have a heart for the great outdoors, are sympathetic with the plan to preserve this natural wonderland for the people.
Senator Smoot has spoken of the forest as "a special reminder of primeval America," and the officials of the Interior department who have visited the tract bear out his words. Recently Senator Smoot said in an interview:
"It is a wonderland. The scenic grandeur cannot be appreciated without being seen. In the approach to the forest the scenery is of the type which one finds in the Grand Canyon National park, which is not far away. As a matter of fact a visitor must pass through the latter park to reach the President's forest from the south.
"The President's forest is typical of the America which our forefathers turned into the industrial and thriving nation of today. It will be a reminder to the generations to come of American land as it first was seen."
Know How It Feels.
"Why don't these investigating committees ever accomplish anything?" "Well, a good many congressmen have been investigated themselves."
ARCHBISHOP OF MILAN IS POPE
NAME OF PIUS XI IS TAKEN BY
SUCCESSOR OF POPE
BENEDICT XV.
RATTI IS ELECTED
CATHOLIC CHURCH ELEVATES
ITALIAN CARDINAL TO
HIGH HONOR.
(Western Newspaper Union News Service.)
Rome.—Cardinal Achille Ratti, archbishop of Milan, was proclaimed elected pope in succession to the late Benedict XV. He has taken the name of Plus XI.
The thousands waiting in front of St. Peter's for the wisp of smoke which would tell of the election of a new pope or the failure of the sacred college to reach a decision, gave a mighty shout when a thin wisp of smoke came from the chimney leading from the Sistine chapel. It was then known that the Catholic church had once more a duly elected pontiff.
As soon as the two-thirds vote for Cardinal Ratti had been verified, Cardinal Vannutelli, as dean of the sacred college, arose and proceeded to the throne of the chosen one, accom-
PIUS XI.
panied on either side by Cardinals Logue and Bisleti, respectively deans of the cardinal priests and the cardinal dencons. He was asked in Latin by Cardinal Vannutelli, in accordance with custom, if he accepted the election to be supreme pontiff, and the new pope answered with the formal: "Since it is the will of God I must obey."
The new pope was then escorted to the ante-room within the Sistine chapel, where he discarded his cardinal's robes, assisted by the conclavists, and the papal vestments, which had been held in readiness since the opening of the conclave, were placed upon him.
The pontiff, fully vested with the papal garb and accompanied by his cardinals, thereupon returned to the throne he had occupied in the Sistine chapel. There the cardinals, according to their rank, and headed by Vanutelli, made their first act of adoration to his holiness, kissing first his feet and then his hands, after which the pope received them in embrace and bestowed upon them his first apostolic benediction.
Pope Pius XI, after waiting for some moments, in the Clementina hall, left for St. Peter's, accompanied by the members of the sacred college. Arriving at the balcony at the entrance inside the cathedral, he raised his hand and bestowed upon the multitude his first public benediction. He then returned to the vatican, where, although reigning, the popes have remained virtual prisoners until their deaths.
New Pope Became Cardinal East St. Louis. Rome. Cardinal Achille Ratti, archbishop of Milan, was for several years papal nuncio in Poland, where his discharge of important ecclesiastical functions when the Polish question became acute earned for him the esteem of Benedict XV and the gratitude of vatican authorities. It was because of this service that the red hat was conferred upon him on June 16, 1921, when a similar honor was bestowed on Cardinal Laurenti. Cardinal Ratti was born in Italy on Oct. 12, 1858. For many years he was librarian of the Ambrosian library and archives at Milan. Later he became librarian of the vatican.
Victory Notes Accepted for Taxes.
Washington.—Secretary Mellon has issued instructions to internal collectors to accept Victory notes in payment of income and profits taxes due March 15. Notes of either the 4% per cent or 3% per cent series will be taken as a result of the order which was issued under the provisions of the last tax law.
Cardinal Marini Dies in Vatican. London.—Cardinal Marini, according to the Rome correspondent of the London Times, died in the vatican before the election of the pope. Cardinal Marini was suffering from influenza when he entered the conclave. He remained in bed for the first day, but on the second day he participated in the deliberations and was able to take part in the balloting. After that his condition became worse and he was compelled to remain in bed.
EIGHT SOURCES FOR BONUS TAX
GASOLINE, CHECKS, TOBACCO, IN
HERITANCE AND PARCEL
POST MENTIONED.
MONEY TO BE RAISED
CONGRESS DISCUSSES WAYS OF
RAISING CASH TO PAY SOL-
DIER BONUS.
(Western Newspaper Union News Service.)
Washinton.—The field of possible soldiers' bonus taxes has been narrowed to eight sources by the subcommittee of the Republican members of the House ways and means committee dealing with the tax problem. These sources were stated as follows: A gasoline consumption tax of possibly 1 cent a gallon; a license tax on automobiles of about 25 cents per horsepower; a stamp tax on bank checks at about 1 cent for each check; a tax on real estate transfers at the rate of about 5 cents on each $10 involved, and increased taxes on admissions where the sum paid exceeds 25 cents; cigarettes, tobacco and documentary stamps.
Representative Longworth of Ohio, acting chairman of the subcommittee, in the absence of Representative Fordney, said there was little sentiment for any increase either in the first-class or second-class postage rates, but added that there had been some discussion of an advance in the parcel post rates. In the House Representative Perlman, Republican, New York, has introduced a bill proposing a general increase in the inheritance tax, designed to yield an additional $300,000,000 a year in revenue. He said this would go a long way toward paying the bonus.
The bonus taxes will be temporary, Mr. Longworth said, extending over three years, and will be designed solely to take care of the cash payments to be made during the two and one-half years beginning Jan. 1, 1923. It was explained that the cost of the other four options to be included in the bonus measure would be spread over twenty years and would not begin to be a serious charge against the federal treasury for several years at least.
Members of the subcommittee figured that on the basis of estimates furnished by treasury experts, the $350,000,000 yearly needed for three years for the cash payments could be obtained from the eight sources outlined. Exact rates in each case remain to be fixed, but the subcommittee expects to have the program completed soon.
It then will be passed upon by the majority members of the ways and means committee, and, under present plans, will be submitted in turn to Republican members of the Senate finance committee and President Harding. Graduated increases in the various kinds of documentary stamp taxes now in force were discussed in the subcommittee, with sentiment said to have been in favor of imposing the highest rate in the case of the transfer of capital stock and bonds. The figure suggested was 1-10 of 1 per cent on all transfers. The present tax is 1-20 of 1 per cent in the case of the original transfer and 1-50 of 1 per cent on each subsequent transfer.
The suggested increase in the taxes on cigarettes is estimated to yield $25,000,000, while that on tobacco would yield an additional $5,000,000. In the case of admissions the existing rate of 10 per cent may be doubled where the charge exceeds 25 cents.
Dog Saves Children.
Livingston, Mont.—A dog tunneling through a snowslide eight feet in depth here saved the lives of the three children of F. J. Lyons, a Mill creek rancher. The children were playing in a ditch in the path of the slide which, without warning, covered them. Nonie, aged 8, was rescued by throwing her arms about the dog as the animal dug its way through the snow to the surface. She was able to summon other members of the Lyons family who rescued Jimmy, aged 7, and Austin, aged 5.
Crime Blamed to Slowness of Courts. Chicago.—Chicago is the home of about 10,000 professional criminals, or about one-third of 1 per cent of the city's population, according to estimates of the Chicago crime commission, made public recently. The reason for such an unprecedented number of law breakers here is ascribed by crime experts to the slowness with which the wheels of justice are set in motion and the small number of convictions.
Ask Receivership for Phonograph Co.
Wilmington, Del.—Application has been made in the United States District Court here for a receivership for the Columbia Graphophone Company. Three stockholders of the company signed the application. Insolvency was alleged and the amount of liabilities was put at $19,000,000 due banks and financial creditors and $3,000,000 to merchandise and other creditors. No listing of assets was made. The company has factories in Bridgeport and Baltimore.

SUNDAY, FEBUARY 12, brings us to the one hundred and thirteenth anniversary of our beloved emancipator, Abraham Lincoln, the same to be celebrated by all Americans who are conscious of the great expression that came from Lincoln, "No nation can exist half bond, half free."

It therefore follows that even though by our resolutions we are instituting the action of self-help, yet it can clearly be seen that we must have some modern Lincolnns with hearts pulsating with the love of real freedom in the shape of our state and national representatives, to assist in opening avenues of learning whereby this mental slavery may be removed.

And as true disciples of our revered leader we feel that this is a fitting time to honor his memory by causing such reforms to be made as will be conducive to the betterment of our people and the success of the government. In celebrating the birthday of this illustrious character let us as good and loyal citizens of a democracy that admits no superior resolve to use our utmost influence to correct these evils within our nation, so that we may receive further blessings, being imbued with the spirit of Lincoln, who ever lives in our hearts as A TRUE STANDARD OF LIBERTY.

WHENEVER either of the great political parties achieve a victory and then gather around the table to divide the loaves and the fishes, an ever-convenient subterfuge for denying substantial recognition to our group is that we have serious factional differences. "Get together, all of you," is the usual absurd command before we are permitted to come into our own. This may or may not be the reason why President Harding recently appointed an obscure white man to the place of register of the treasury, a place of high honor held by a Negro under Republican Presidents, with the exception of Taft, since the days of President Garfield. But that is not our main point. Last week the daily papers teemed with accounts of a serious split in the ranks of the Democratic party and how hitherto prominent figures were to be ousted and decapitated because of party faithlessness. The air was blue with charges of a more or less serious character.
Now this week sees a big fight looming in the ranks of the Republican party. Factional strife as serious, if not more so, than what was noted in the Democratic ranks, has broken out, with a fury that threatens party success at the polls this fall. Of course one or the other of these factions will gain control of the party machinery and the other will go on cutting throats as in years past. But the sweetly consoling thing will be to see how seriously they will approach our group, and urge all to "get together." It is about one of the most meaningless phrases in the employ of the English language. After all, human nature is very much the same, and the pigment of skin is not the final determining factor. We have our likes and dislikes the same as other. We have the right to choose or discard a leader or leaders as necessity may require, and we are not always willing to await the white man's designation in the matter.
One thing is certain, about the most notable speck upon the political horizon in Colorado just now is the lack of harmony in either of the big parties. We can look on at present with an air of indifference, but later when ward heelers, small-bore politicians and office seekers come around and tell us to "get together," we are going to have our say.

Mrs. Washington is still on the mend. Our sick list is diminishing little by little. Our prayer meetings are still prospering. They are spiritual, inspiring and helpful. We are growing in numbers and interest.
By the way, lest we forget, the Dyer Bill has passed the House. The people of Boulder thank the congressmen who voted for the bill. We thank our friends and all those that fought or worked in any way for the bill. But, listen, we thank God for the way He has worked in the matter; we thank Him for putting it in the hearts of the many that were interested. In our prayer meeting and in our Cedar Art Club we have prayed and are still praying. We expect to rejoice soon because of the passage of the bill in the Senate. Negro people, "Have faith in God."
"He that puteth his trust in God shall never be confounded."
Sunday night at Allen Chapel, Rev. Carter spoke from the seventh Chapter of Hebrews and the 19th verse.
He exorted his audience to live holy. The old and new testament exhorts to holy living. The standard in both testaments were the same—a holy life. That by prayerful endeavor the outward conduct can be completely controlled. The N. A. A. C. P. holds a meeting the 7th. The new officers will be installed.
Proposal to Put Stop to Lynchings Causes Bryan to Break Out
Proposal to Put Stop to Lynchings Causes Bryan to Break Out
WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN in an interview given to the Baltimore Sun, denounces the Dyer anti-lynching bill which is now before Congress. In commenting upon the bill, Mr. Bryan said: "I think the bill is an inexcusable and indefensible manifestation of partisanship. It is the most partisan measure that has been offered seriously in Congress for a generation."
In point of fact, the Dyer anti-lynching bill is nothing but a measure in support of law enforcement. There is nothing partisan in it. There is nothing sectional in it. It defines mobs and fixes penalties for those who participate in mobs, and for officers of the law who permit mobs and lynching within the territory under their jurisdiction. It also provides penalties for municipalities or counties in which mobs are organized and commit murder. It applies alike to the state of Maine and the state of Texas; to the communities of Minnesota and those of Mississippi. If it becomes a law it will be in equal force and effect in the rock-ribbed Republican state of Pennsylvania and the solid Democratic state of Alabama. Mr. Bryan convicts himself either of ignorance or misrepresentation when he characterizes the bill as being a partisan one.
Continuing his denunciation of the bill, Mr. Bryan says: "It will not help the colored people to turn attention away from crimes that lead to lynching—that is to say to show more sympathy for the colored man who has attacked a white woman than the woman who is the victim."
The Baltimore Sun, in carrying the interview, stated that Mr. Bryan is going to be a candidate for the United States Senate from Florida, which he now claims as his legal residence. It would appear that Mr. Bryan has rapidly and readily become acclimated, not only physically, but mentally, to his new home. There is nothing in the Dyer anti-lynching bill to justify the conclusion or the assertion that it will, if it becomes a law, be operative only against those who attempt to take the law into their own hands in punishment of Negroes who have assaulted white women. The bill applies to all mobs, everywhere, no matter what the occasion or who the victims.
Furthermore, the argument which Mr. Bryan advances, although it is the stereotyped argument of, the Democrats in justification of mob law, is nevertheless, contrary to the facts. Statistics since 1889 show that only 16.6 per cent of victims of mobs ever have been accused of assaulting women. In other words, five out of six victims of mobs are innocent of the crime to which Mr. Bryan alludes. Furthermore, the data shows that of the total number of victims of mobs since 1886, 64 of them were women.
To come closer to Mr. Bryan's home, it may be said that one of the more recent mob outrages took place in Orlando, Fla., in November, 1920. The occasion of the mob at that time in Mr. Bryan's adopted state, which he hopes to represent in the United States Senate, was the effort of a Negro citizen, who was a qualified voted, to exercise the right of suffrage. He appeared at the polls and was driven away by Democratic politicians. He returned later in company with friends and demanded permission to cast his ballot as an American citizen, in conformity with the rights guaranteed to him by the Constitution. For this importinence not only was he attacked, but the section of the town in which he lived was attacked and before the mob had finished its work a dozen Negro men and women had been killed, some of them burned in their homes.
This is the cort of thing that is discrediting the United States and making the Constitution and the laws a mockery. It is the sort of thing which the Dyer anti-lynching bill will punish in event the bill is enacted into law.
Mr. Bryan may curry favor with his newly acquired neighbors by his demagogic attack upon a bill which has for its purpose the upholding of the law and the orderly procedure of the courts, but he will not add anything to his reputation among fair-minded, law-abiding citizens by his most recent outbreak.

Young People Need to Be Shown That Farming Can Be Made to Pay
By PROF. E. A. ROSS, University of Wisconsin.
In a general way the flow to the cities and inevitable. Cheap transportation and denizens of great cities with food at most. Hundreds of articles that two generations home made are now factory made and they are in cities. Power-driven machinery releases a part of the rural population for suits. The state of affairs has stimulated of the young people from the hard work pinching of the farms to the prospering cities.
Country has not been keeping a fair share of its wealth. It has been the young people with spirit and intellect to the call of the distant city. Had they a spirit of initiative would have shown itself along the main older parts of the country which have been able to the West and the cities for two generations in decline. The roads are neglected so there is less a smaller turnout to school, to church and petitions and grounds have deteriorated. The church is disappeared. Frivolity engrosses the young being schools, literary societies or debating clubs having missed the benefits of these communal coarse, sensual and irresponsible. There is a many lands of individual and family morality. This is "degeneracy" that one finds in certain rural parts of middle states.
Comedy is to make life on the farms more attractive directing rural education, reinspiring the rural cities of recreative opportunities and dispelling the distant city. The young people need to be shown the need to pay if one puts brains and energy to it.
The Interference of Radical Leaders of Both Capital and Labor
The country has not been keeping a fair share of its brighter boys and girls. It has been the young people with spirit and initiative who have responded to the call of the distant city. Had they stayed on the farm, this spirit of initiative would have shown itself along rural lines.
In certain older parts of the country which have been losing their young people to the West and the cities for two generations, there is a visible moral decline. The roads are neglected so there is less social intercourse and a smaller turnout to school, to church and public events. School buildings and grounds have deteriorated. The church is in a rut or has even disappeared. Frivolity engrosses the young because no one organizes singing schools, literary societies or debating clubs. The next generation, having missed the benefits of these communal institutions, shows itself coarse, sensual and irresponsible. There is a marked decline in the standards of individual and family morality. This is an explanation of the "degeneracy" that one finds in certain rural parts of New England and middle states.
The remedy is to make life on the farms more attractive. There is need of redirecting rural education, reinspiring the rural church, multiplying societies of recreative opportunities and dispelling the false glamour of the distant city. The young people need to be shown that farming can be made to pay if one puts brains and energy to it.

squabbles are the worst menace which this asas faced the same situation two years ago with an industrial tribunal for the settlemen vital and labor. Such a tribunal placed on the on today would bring industrial peace.
Industrial squabbles are the worst menace which this country faces today. Kansas faced the same situation two years ago and met it successfully with an industrial tribunal for the settlement of disputes between capital and labor. Such a tribunal placed on the statute books of the nation today would bring industrial peace.
We have passed through an industrial crisis which was settled temporarily by the railroad labor board. Of course, settlement of any strike is a good thing, but personally I would have been glad if the rail strike had materialized.
The question then would have been whether the government would rule, and I believe that there was enough Dutch courage in this congress to have passed legislation calling for an industrial tribunal.
We could then sit and say to labor and to the employer, "If you cannot settle your quarrels without bringing civil war on the helpless public, then this government will do it for you."
Racial Deterioration Evident Among All Highly Civilized Peoples
Racial Deterioration Evident Among All Highly Civilized Peoples
By MAJ. LEONARD DARWIN, Son of Charles Darwin.
Racial deterioration seems evident among all highly civilized peoples because of the thinning out of the descendants of highly endowed stock and the multiplication of those of inferior endowment. The result is anticipated that in comparison with the ill-endowed, the naturally well-endowed will, as time goes on, take a smaller and smaller part in the production of the coming generations, with a tendency to progressive racial deterioration as an inevitable consequence. Statistical inquiries prove conclusively that, where good incomes are being earned, there the families are on the average small.
I can find no facts which refute the theoretical conclusion that the inborn qualities of civilized communities are deteriorating, and the process will inevitably lead in time to an all-round downward movement.
What is necessary is to make it deeply and widely felt that it is both immoral and unpatriotic for couples sound in mind and body to unduly limit the size of their families. The nation that wins in this moral campaign will have gone half-way toward gaining a great racial victory.
Upon the Integrity of American Homes Depends Our Whole National Life
Upon the Integrity of American Homes Depends Our Whole National Life
By RT. REV. W. A. GUERRY, Episcopal Bishop South Carolina.
The startling statement that one-twentieth of all marriages in the United States end in divorce is of itself sufficient to arouse every earnest man and woman to the seriousness of the situation that confronts us.
Upon the integrity and purity of the American home depends the whole superstructure of our national life. Where the home is undermined and destroyed and children cast adrift by a selfish and self-centered individualism, there is an end of all social and moral restraint.
To combat the growing evil of divorce in this country a group of public-spirited men and women have been trying to get through congress a uniform divorce law. What is known as the Edmonds bill aims to accomplish this end. The purpose of this bill is to limit the grounds of divorce.
One difficulty in the way of a wide-spread publicity and agitation in favor of more stringent divorce laws grows out of the fact that the divorce evil has become universal. Another trouble is that most people who are seeking divorce are not satisfied with a legal separation. The underlying purpose of it all is too often the intention of marrying again as soon as the divorce has been granted.
PETER H.
In a general way the flow to the cities is normal and inevitable. Cheap transportation provides the denizens of great cities with food at moderate prices. Hundreds of articles that two generations ago were home made are now factory made and these factories are in cities. Power-driven machinery on the farm releases a part of the rural population for other pursuits. The state of affairs has stimulated the exodus of the young people from the hard work and pennypinching of the farms to the prospering, easy-going cities.

NOTES OF THE ZION BAPTIST
CHURCH.
Dr, Over preached last Sunday morn-
‘ing to an appreciative audience. At
the close of the service one person
er forward for church memership.
‘At the evening service the pastor
preached on “Unity.” It being the
first Sunday the Communion service
was in order. Just before Communion
a list of thirty new members was read
and each who was present was wel-
comed to the church activities and fel-
lowship.
‘The Sunday school is continuing an
evangelistic effort up’ to Easter. Spe-
cial emphasis will be laid on decisions
for Christ at each session of the
school.
‘The Union enjoyed a wonderfully
helpful service in the evening. The
Young Women’s Friendly Club _ had
charge of the program. Miss Edna
Over was the leader.
‘The Ushers’ Board was reorganized
during the week with several new
members. Brother Wm. Webb was
chosen chief usher.
‘A “Get-together” church dinner for
the members of Zion has been planned
by the pastor and officers, to be given
Thursday night, Feb. 16. It is the
hope that every person on the mem-
ership roll will e present and sit
down to a real dinner to be served by
the ladies of the church. This fune-
tion is planned for the church mem-
bership and is free.
PROMINENT WHITE CITIZENS AC-
CEPT PLACES ON ADVISORY
| BOARD DENVER BRANCH N. A.
A.C. P.
The growing importance of the work
of the National Association for the Ad-
vancement of Colored People was nev:
er more aptly illustrated than when a
number of Colorado's most prominent
white citizens notified the executive of-
ficers of the Denver Branch that they
accepted with pleasure places on the
newly created Advisory Board. ‘Those
appointed were:
Dean A. ©. Peck, prominent M. E.
minister.
Hon. 0. H. Shoup, governor of Colo-
rado. :
Hon. Ben B. Lindsey, Judge of Ju-
venile Court. .
Miss Emily Griffith, principal Op-
portunity School.
Dr, W. H. Wray Boyle, prominent
Presbyterian minister.
Col. J. E, Huchingson, commander
Boy Scouts.
Hon. Karl G. Schuyler, capitalist and
attorney.
No stronger personnel of eitizens
could be found in Colorado to stand
back of any movement than the above.
And what is more important, each one
when approached, declared they would
deem it an honor to serve on such a
board, THE COLORADO STATES:
MAN congratulates the Denver Branch
and the colored citizens of Colorado
in generat on being enabled to secure
the aid and support of such worthy
leaders.
Y. W. C. A. DRIVE COMES TO A
CLOSE.
| After a very intensive campaign dur-
ing which our group was enabled to
make a wonderful showing considering
the times, the Y, W. C. A. membership
drive was brought to a close this week.
ot course the public has a general
knowledge of the intrinsle value of
the great work of the Young Women's
Christian Association, but it 1s to the
activities of the Phyllis Wheatley
Branch that we wish to call special
attention, Its progress has been rap-
id and its usefulness demonstrated in
a most practical manner during the
past year. The management has been
careful and conservative and every
step has been upon sure ground, Small
wonder then as an institution that its
manifest worth touched the heart of
one of Denyer's Methodist women,
who aided substantially in securing
the present magnificent home for the
Branch. The institution can enjoy
such a remarkable growth as the
Phyllis Wheatly Branch without a sac-
rificial tax upon the time and ability
of those charged with its management.
It is therefore a pleasure for us to of-
fer testimonials to—
Mrs. Gertie N. Ross,
Mrs. Josephine Davis,
Mrs. Eliza Green
Mrs. Mary Clinkscale,
Mrs, Oscar Triplett,
Miss Effie Layton,

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
‘The baby-blizzard which came up so
unexpeetedly last Sunday afternoon
and lasted until late in the night, prac-
tically killed the Douglass meeting
scheduled for the afternoon, and pre-
yented the carrying out of the pro-
gram, Two or three of the particl
pants came, but nothing could be done
towards executing the —_ program
planned.
“The Olinger Cadets=how happy
they are! And rightly so, too, for thelr
new uniforms are about to be given
out, ‘They have been busy brightening
‘up buttons, and in other ways making
ready. One week ago ninety-five at-
tended the meeting, being thel argest
number at any one time since the or-
ganization of the cadets.
“The Big and Little Brothers are
growing in number. Eight months azo
‘there were only five Big and Little
Brothers (colored) in the city. The
number has now grown to forty-one,
with a few others yet on the waiting
list, We shall soon haye to call for
more Big Brothers.
"The Glee Club sang at two engaxe-
‘ments last week, On Tuesday evening
they sang at the banquet of the Man
‘ufacturers’ Club in the tea room of
Daniels and Fisher's store. About 600
persons were present, On Friday ev-
ening they appeared hefore the Den-
yer Civie and Commercial Association
‘at their annual banquet. There were
about 300 at that affair.
‘The checker players will meet on
‘Puesday evening at 8 o'clock. The
‘committee of management will meet
next Wednesday evening.
A Lincoln day program will be ren-
dered at the meeting tomorrow (Sun-
day) afternoon. Among the numbers
will be a paper by Mr. Harold Brown
on the subject “Have We Any Debt to
Lincoln?” Mr, Stewart will speak on
“Why We Celebrate This Day.” Sec-
retary Thomas J. Bell will speak on
“Lincoln's Legacy to the Negro.” Ap-
proprinte music will be rendered. The
program will begin at 4 o'clock, and
‘everybody 1s invited to he present.
NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH,
Twenty-Second and Arapahoe.
The services for the entire day Inst
Sunday were very good. Rey. A. Hill
conducted the services Sunday morn
ing and preached a wonderful sermon
Sunday night. Our new Aluminum
Communion Set arrived in time for us
to take communion, It is complete and
very attractive.
Our revival services closed Friday
night. Dr, E. M. Cohron’s daughter
was taken sick with pneumonia while
he was here with us and he received
a message to come home at once as
his daughter was not expeeted to live.
He left Friday, Feb. 8, We received a
letter from him Monday stating that
his daughter was very low. Tey. Coh
ron said that we should trust In God
and continue in this great work that
we have launched Into,
‘The inclement weather did not keep
us from rallying to the front finan-
cially last Sunday with an offering of
$50.50, not counting the $21.76 raised
during the revival. We have been
praying to God to send us a leader,
and believing that the time had come
for us to call a pastor, the officin!
board met Friday evening and out of
number of applications from gospel
ministers, the board seemed to be led
by the Holy Spirit to call one who
had not offered to serve us, and who
we had very little hope of getting ow-
ing to our small number and other
conditions. But after all we recom:
mended to the chureh by an unanimous
vote of the hoard to call Dr. B. M.
Cohron of St. Joe, Mo. And at the
business meeting of the chureh the
chureh unanimously adopted our re-
port and congratulated the board for
their wise selection. Dr. Cohron Is a
successful pastor of a large chureh in
Missouri. He accepted our call and
will be here to take charge of the
church on or before April 1. We ex:
pect to go into our new chureh the
first or second Sunday In April. E. HL
Rose received a message from Dr,
Cohron stating that his daughter died
Wednesday morning 8 o'clock.

Has Idea for Storing Power.
As a cheap method of storing the In-
termittent power that nature produces
fn the tides, the sun's radiation, the
wind and the waves of the sea, a Ru-
manian engineer suggests that this en-
ergy be converted into compressed alr
and stored in subterranean chambers
that are formed by penetrating below
airtight Iayers of clay by artesian
wells,
Making Good an Ola Boast.
A process has been discovered
whereby old leather can be converted
into gelatin, Such transformation of-
fers a ready way of utilizing many ar-
‘ticles after their value to every one
‘but the junk man appears to be gone.
Since head coverings are sometimes
made of leather, it would appear that
at least the man confident that his
candidate will win in an election may,
literally back up his confidence with
the time-honored promise that he will
eat his hat in the event that his man
loses.
What Babylon Handed Us.
The new system of dividing the day
into 24 hours, invented by the Baby-
lonians, was adopted by the Greeks
and since then it has been handed
down from generation to generation
without any alteration, because no-
body has dared to change it. Even
the French revolutionists, who intro-
duced a large und elaborate sertes of
Innovations in the system of weights
and measures, and went so far as to
change the names and order of the
days of the week, did not attempt to
alter the day's division into 24 hours.
The BDenariua.
The word penny occurs a number
of times in our English yersion of the
New Testament, especially in the four
Gospels; for instance, Matthew 20:2,
“And when he had agreed with the
labourers for a penny a day, he sent
them into his vineyard.” ‘The coln to
which the name penny Is given, was
the denarius, a Roman silver coin ia
circulation in the time of Our Lecd
and the Apostles. It was the prine%sa)
silver coin ten in use throughows the
Roman Empire. From the parable
of the laborers tn the vineyard It
would seem that a denarivs wes ihen

LINCOLN'S IMMORTALITY
From an Etching by E. Durlap ©1920 by The Anderson Art Galleries, Chicago
Compiled By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN BETTER than all printed biographies are the renewals and continuations of the lives of greater men in the lives of the less. No other American, and very few men of any nation or period have entered so intimately into the personal experience of millions as Abraham Lincoln. The words of him who never had a year in school are used in teaching college students the highest possibili-
BETTER than all printed biographies are the renewals and continuations of the lives of greater men in the lives of the less. No other American, and very few men of any nation or period have entered so intimately into the personal experience of millions as Abraham Lincoln. The words of him who never had a year in school are used in teaching college students the highest possibilities of language. His coined phrases are worn smooth and dateless in current speech. But more than that, his habit of thought has guided the thinking of errand boy and President. His faith quickens the faith of us all. Shelley wrote of Kents:
He is made one with nature; there is heard His voice in all her music, from the moan Of thunder to the song of night's sweet bird; He is a presence to be felt and known In darkness and in light, from herb and stone Spreading itself where'er that Power may move Which has withdrawn his being to its own; Which wields the world with never-wearied love, Sustains it from beneath and kindles it above.
In such wise the man whose birth we celebrate has entered into the life of his people and is in process of penetrating the wider circles of the whole world's life. This, on its earthward side, is the immortality of Abraham Lincoln.
The man had a thousand Boswells but no great one. . . Some 1,500 books or pamphlets have been issued dealing with the various phases of the subject. . . But if the choice must be made between the books other men have written about him and Lincoln's own words, the letters and addresses hold first place. He can be trusted as the best witness in his own case. His word was as good as his bond, and his life was as good as his word. Speech was the water from a living well, under which the stream of character never failed.
Probably the majority of men desire to be counted on the side of truth. But few will make any great effort to find what is true. And, Sir Thomas Browne declares, not every man is a fit champion of truth. For when the man who is right in principle fails in the trial by combat, the cause suffers in his defeat.
Abraham Lincoln was not a speculative philosopher, an originator of systems of thought. But he was one of the greatest exponents and defenders of truth in its applications and illustrations in human experience that the world has ever seen. His life and words—which are inseparable—perfectly teach the balance between thought and act, principle and practice, general truth and particular fact.
The same is true of the letters, which are full of keen and kindly applications to the life of each one of us and of the whole people. Even with Gettysburg and the second inaugural in mind, we have found a more nearly complete and satisfying expression of the man in his letters than in his addresses. In them he confounds the enemies of the Republic, admonishes, warns, and instructs his people, and comforts the broken-hearted with a tenderness that had blossomed upon the graves of Nancy Hanks and Ann Rutledge and upon those of his children.
For in this man reason and emotion were joined like form and color in a flower. He rejoiced in the exercise of his mind, but he had none of that intellectual arrogance that denies all it cannot comprehend or prove. The charge of atheism is the most futtle of all that have been brought against him. As an inquiring boy he read Tom Palne and wrote an essay along radical lines, but the pressure of human need constrained him to turn to Divinity.
Prayer was the very breath of his later life. Gen. Daniel Sickles was hardly the man to invent plous tale. He has repeated to many witnesses the story of Lincoln's prayer before Gettysburg.
But it is inconceivable that so honest a man could write his reverent expressions of trust in the Almighty without a personal sense of relationship. The two men of the Nineteenth century who have drawn and held the most intense admiration of the civilized world are Napoleon Bonaparte and Abraham Lincoln. Both were great leaders, great executives. Both had the power of binding their followers to them with a personal loyalty stronger than the ties of blood. Both appeal to the imagination of millions who never saw them.
But, as the Evening Sun pointed out on the anniversary of Waterloo, it is the downfall of Napoleon that the world remembers, the long-deferred but inevitable defeat of ambition. Lincoln died victorious, not alone in the circumstance of triumph arms and a nation reunited but in the victory of unselfish devotion to the cause of human freedom. He identified his life with the progress of mankind, and in losing himself he found immortality—(Editorial in New York Sun, 1919).
The assertion "That all men are created equal" was of no practical use in effecting our separation from Great Britain; and it was placed in the Declaration not for that but for future use. Its authors meant it to be—as, thank God, it is now proving itself—a stumblingblock to all those who in aftertimes might seek to turn a free people back into the hateful paths of despotism. They knew the proneness of prosperity to breed tyrants, and they meant, when such should reappear in this fair land and commence their vocation, they should find left for them at least one hard nut to crack. (Speech at Springfield, Ill., June 26, 1857.)
Think nothing of me; take no thought for the political fate of any man whomsoever, but come back to the truths that are in the Declaration of Independence. While pretending no indifference to earthly honors, I do claim to be actuated in this contest by something higher than an anxiety for office. I charge you to drop every paltry and insignificant thought for any man's success. It is nothing; Judge Douglas is nothing. But do not destroy that immortal emblem of humanity—the Declaration of Independence. (Speech at Bardstown, Ill., Aug. 12, 1858.) I have often inquired of myself what great principle or idea it was that kept this confederacy so long together. It was not the mere matter of the separation of the colonies from the motherland but that sentiment in the Declaration of Independence which gave liberty, not alone to the people of this country but, I hope, to the world for all future time. It was that which gave promise that in due time the weight would be lifted from the shoulders of all men. (Speech at Independence Hall, Philadelphia, Feb. 22, 1861.)
But soberly, it is now no child's play to save the principles of Jefferson from total overthrow in this nation. . . . This is a world of compensation, and he who would be no slave must consent to have no slave. Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves, and, under a just God, cannot long retain it. All honor to Jefferson—to the man who, in the concrete pressure of a struggle for national independence by a single people, had the coolness, forecast, and capacity to introduce into a merely revolutionary document an abstract truth, applicable to all men and all times, and so to embalm it there that today, and in all coming days, it shall be a rebuke and a stumblingblock to the very harbingers of reappearing tyranny and oppression. (Letter to Republicans of Boston, April 6, 1859, in reply to an invitation to attend a celebration in honor of Jefferson's birthday.)
This declared indifference, but as I must think, covert zeal, for the spread of slavery, I cannot but hate. I hate it because of the monstrous injustice of slavery itself. I hate it because it deprives our republican example of its just influence in the world, enables the enemies of free institutions, with plausibility, to taunt us as hypocrites, causes the real friends of freedom to doubt our sincerity, and especially because it forces so
many good men among ourselves into an open war with the very fundamental principles of civil liberty, criticising the Declaration of Independence and insisting that there is no right principle of action but self-interest. (Speech at Ottawa, Ill., Aug. 21, 1858.)
What constitutes the bulwark of our own liberty and independence? It is not our frowning battlements, our bristling seacoasts, the guns of our war steamers, or the strength of our gallant and disciplined army. These are not our reliance against a resumption of tyranny in our fair land. . . . Our reliance is in the love of liberty which God has planted in our bosoms. Our defense is in the preservation of the spirit which prizes liberty as the heritage of all men in all lands everywhere. Destroy this spirit and you have planted the seeds of despotism around our own doors. (Speech at Chicago, Ill., Sept. 11, 1858.)
All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point, then, is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reaches us it must spring up among us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freedmen we must live through all time or die by suicide. (Speech at Springfield. Ill., Jan. 27, 1837.)
No man is good enough to govern another man without that other's consent. . . . Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves, and under a just God cannot long retain it. (Speech at Springfield, Ill., Oct. 1, 1854.)
Allow all the governed an equal voice in the government; that and that only is self-government. . . . Finally, I insist that if there is anything that it is the duty of the whole people to never intrust to hands other than their own that thing is the preservation and perpetuity of their own liberties and institutions. (Speech at Peoria, Ill., Oct. 16, 1854.)
The strongest bond of human sympathy outside the family relation should be one uniting all working people of all nations, tongues and kindreds. (Reply to committee of Workingmen's association of New York, Mar. 21, 1864.)
We will hereafter speak for freedom and against slavery as long as the Constitution guarantees free speech; until everywhere on this wide land the sun shall shine, and the rain shall fall, and the wind shall blow upon no man who goes forth to unrequited toll. (1856, History of Abraham Lincoln.—Arnold. p. 97.)
I go for all sharing the privilege of the government who assist in bearing its burdens, . . . by no means excluding females. (Announcement of political views, June 13, 1836.)
I am opposed to the limitation or lessening of the right of suffrage. If anything I am in favor of its extension or enlargement. I want to lift men up—to broaden rather than contract their privileges. (Interview, Springfield, Ill.—Herndon, p. 625.)
But in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow, this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us, the living, rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us; that from these honored dead we take increased devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain; that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom; and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth. (Gettysburg Address, November 19, 1863.)

LARD IS ONE OF MATERIAL FOODS
Experts Declare Best Quality Comes From Fat Surrounding the Kidneys.
PLACE IN CLEAN CONTAINERS
Rancidity May Be Prevented by Placing Product in Convenient Place Away From Light—Fruit Jars Are Excellent.
(Prepared by the United Department of Agriculture.)
Although lard is often considered a by-product, it is one of the most important of the various foods to be found within the well-stuffed hide of the fat hog. Fat makes up a high percentage of the dressed weight and, therefore, a good deal of care should be exercised in preparing and preserving the lard made from it.
Leaf Lard Is Highest Grade.
Lard comes from various parts of the hog and the quality varies with its source. The leaf or kidney fat that clings to the back walls of the abdominal cavity yields the best grade of lard. Persons experienced in butchering remove these layers of fat first in order to facilitate cooling of the meat. The removal is best accomplished by peeling the fat upward with the fingers, beginning at the bottom. The kidneys, which are in this fat, are removed. The leaf fat is then hung up to cool.
The fat on the intestines and the membranes connecting them is known as "gut fat." It often has a rahter strong odor and is generally kept separate from the other lard stock and rendered by itself. It should be thoroughly washed and left in cold water for several hours before rendering.
The leaf fat makes the best lard, but the back strip of the side also makes a good quality, as do the trimmings of the ham, shoulder, and neck.
Frying Out Lard in Open.
Leaf fat, back strips, and fat trimmings may be rendered together.
To obtain the best and clearest lard it is necessary, first, to remove all skin and lean meat from the trimmings. To do this cut the fat into strips about $1\frac{1}{2}$ inches wide, then place the strip on the table, skin down, and cut the fat from the skin. When a piece of skin large enough to grasp is freed from the fat, take it in the left hand and with the knife held in the right hand inserted between the fat and the skin, pull the skin. If the knife is slanted downward slightly, this will easily remove the fat from the skin. The strips of fat should then be cut into pieces and hashed or ground.
To Render Fat Without Burning.
When the fat is ready for rendering, pour into the kettle about a quart of water and fill it nearly full with fat cuttings. The fat will then heat and the grease will be brought out without burning. Render the lard over a moderate fire. At the beginning it is best to have the temperature around 160 degrees F., and it should be gradually brought up to 240 degrees. When the cracklings begin to brown reduce the temperature to approximately 200 degrees, but not to exceed 212 degrees, to prevent scorching. Frequent stirring is necessary to prevent burning.
When the cracklings are thoroughly browned and light enough to float, the kettle should be removed from the fire. The lard is then pressed from the cracklings. Then strain it through a muslin cloth into the containers, and to aid cooling stir it frequently. Stirring also tends to whiten the product and improve the grain, an important point to consider if the lard is to be sold.
Removing Lard From Containers.
In order to have the lard keep well in the jars that have been opened for use it shoulde removed evenly all the way across. Do not dig down into the lard and take out a large scoopful, leaving a well with a lot of surface exposed. A thin coating left around the walls of the containers is almost sure to turn rancid because of the action of the air.
Lard is not a hard product to handle, but a little extra care at butchering time and in putting it away will insure a product that will be better than the kind the average man makes. If you have customers for the surplus, this little difference, as in the case of sausage, hams, and bacon, will help greatly in building up and maintaining a good demand.
Sauces Which Give Fish Piquant and Tasty Flavor
Well-made sauces add variety to fish dishes. In America too little use is made of the sauces. The following are recommended by the home economics specialists of United States Department of Agriculture: Fish Sauce.
$ \frac{1}{2} $ cupfuls boil $ \frac{1}{2} $ cupful sour ing water. pickle (chopped).
Melt the butter, add the flour, salt and pepper and stir until well mixed. Gradually add the boiling water and cook until thick. Let cool and add the chopped pickle.
Tomato sauce, which is delicious especially on salt or smoked fish, may also be made by using strained tomato juice in place of water and adding a little bay leaf if desired.
Fish stock made by boiling the head and the tail portion of the fish is also excellent for making sauce.

Impossible to Make a Definite Statement on Cost.
About Two Ounces of Protein in One Pound of Meat and Same Amount in Eight Eggs—Pound of Cheese Yields Four Ounces.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture)
Prices vary so much with place and season that definite statements about the cost of different materials are out of the question, say food economists of the United States Department of Agriculture. It is possible, however, to reckon how much one may pay at current prices for one material, say milk, eggs, or cheese, in order to obtain protein as cheaply as from another material, say meat at 50 cents a pound.
A pound of meat, medium fat, with an average amount of refuse (bones, trimmings, etc.), supplies about 2 ounces of protein. Eight eggs yield practically the same amount. If eggs cost 72 cents a dozen, 48 cents' worth will furnish about as much protein as 50 cents' worth of meat. In other words, eggs at 72 cents a dozen are a little cheaper as a source of protein than meat at 50 cents a pound.
In the same way it may be reckoned that milk, which contains about 1 ounce of protein to the quart, might cost $12\frac{1}{2}$ cents a quart and provide protein at one-half the expense of meat containing the same amount at 50 cents a pound.
A pound of whole-milk cheese contains about 4 ounces of protein or a little more than twice as much as most meat, so that it might cost twice as much as meat and still be as economical a source of protein. If, as is often the case, it costs less than meat, its protein is. of, course, more than twice as cheap.
HOW TO FRICASSEE SHRIMPS
Canned Product Should Always Be Rinsed in Cold Water Before Putting on Fire.
Canned shrimps should always be rinsed in cold water before cooking. For a fricassee made of one pint can of shrimps prepare a cream sauce from two tablespoonfuls of butter, the same of flour, a pinch of salt, a shake or so of cayenne pepper if hot things are liked, otherwise use white pepper and a cup of rich milk. Stir this until boiling hot and smooth, add the shrimps broken in small pieces and a few drops of table sauce. Remove from the fire and stir in the well-beaten yolk of an egg and several spoonfuls of cream. Last of all add a teaspoonful of lemon juice and serve with triangles of buttered toast, watercress or parsley.
