LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA BUREAU OF NEGRO WELFARE AND STATISTICS T. EDWARD HILL, DIRECTOR, CHARLSETON. VOL. XXVIII. STATE OF WEST V NEGRO WELFARE T. EDWARD HILL, DIR CHARLESTON, W. Va., March 22. "The mob spirit dictated this conviction." "The bloodthirsty mob spirit permeated the atmosphere of the trial and had its effect upon court and jury." The above quotation is from a unanimous opinion of the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals written by Judge Frank Lively and handed down Tuesday ordering a new trial of Harry Lattimer, Negro, convicted in the Circuit Court of Mingo county on the charge of raping an 8-year-old white girl on Sept. 6, 1921. The same day he was arrested and within twenty-four hours had been indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced to be hanged and was on his way to the state penitentiary, according to the records of the case. The reason for this exceeding hurried conviction is apparent in the statement from the Circuit Court, which has been made part of the record. In this statement the judge of the Circuit Court said: "I knew that feeling was running high against the accused in and about the court house and had some fear of mob violence being inflicted on the accused if speedy justice were not meted out to him by the court." Judicial Lynching. "The mob spirit has dictated this conviction," said Judge Lively, in his opinion. "The bloodthirsty mob spirit permeated the atmosphere of the trial, and had its effect upon the court and jury. The defendant may be guilty; that does not concern us. But he is entitled to fair and impartial trial, to the calm, deliberate and uninfluenced judgment of his peers. Orderly and constituted government demands such trial. It is a safeguard in which all members of society are interested and which should be jealously upheld and guarded. A judicial lynching is a graver and more startling crime than a lynching by an irresponsible rabble. It undermines the foundation of orderly government and weakens respect for law and order. There should be no compromise with the spirit of lynching for any crime. "What we have said is entirely impersonal," he says, "and is not to be considered as reflecting upon the conduct of the officials in charge of the case. The circumstances may have impelled the choice of what was considered the lesser evil. The duty is therefore imperative on this court to annul the result brought about by a choice of evils, and to preserve to every member of society, however humble he may be, or however guilty he may be, the right of fair and impartial trial." Syllabus in Case. In the syllabus in the case, Judge Lively said: "Where a person has been arrested for an alleged crime, committed on the day of the arrest, and on the day following is indicted, tried, convicted, sentenced to hang, and immediately taken to the penitentiary for that purpose, and it appears that he has been given no time to prepare his defense, was assigned coun- State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House THE ONLY RELIANCE COLORA VIRGINIA BUREAU OF AND STATISTICS ECTOR, CHARLSETON. sel after he announced that he was ready for trial and plead not guilty, and the judge certifies that he knew that feeling was running high against the accused in and about the court house, and that he had some fear of mob violence being inflicted upon the accused if a speedy trial was not had; and it appears that no witnesses were summoned for the defendant, no motion made for change of venue, improper evidence admitted on the trial without objection on the prisoner's part, and a feebly and perfunctory defense interposed, the Appellate Court will set aside the verdict and award the prisoner a new trial, because he has not been accorded a fair and impartial trial." Conductor Is Nabbed for Attack Wilmington, Del., March 31.—An ill-luminating example of the manner in which the white man's publicity ideas work out is found in the treatment now being given the case of I. B. Flower, a white conductor living at 1623 Scott street, who has been arrested on a charge of assaulting Mrs. William Watson, who lives near Delaware City. A year ago a young boy was hanged here or an alleged attack on an old white woman who was reputed to be criminal in her tendencies. The boy was a half-wit and he was not white. Newspapers in the town made much of the case, playing the boy's race identity up big in their headlines. When he was hung they gloated, claiming that that was enforcing the law. Three months ago a white man was jailed for assault on a 16-year-old girl who was not white. At the trial he was found guilty, sentence was deferred for a while, and then later he was given a year in the penitentiary. Not much of this got out. The racial identity of the sexes had been reversed. The case of Mrs. Watson and Flower is similar. Both Mrs. Watson and her husband are highly respectable citizens. Delaware City, where she lives, is in a more or less lonely location. She alleges that when she got near her home, she found herself to be the only occupant of the street car. It was night and dark. The motorman or the conductor saw to it that the trolley pole was pulled from the wire, leaving the interior of the car in darkness. Then, while the motorman guarded, the conductor, Flower, is said to have assaulted her. Mrs. Watson carried the news to her husband, who immediately had a warrant sworn out for Flower. The latter was taken to jail, given a preliminary hearing and let out on $2,500 bail. Very little has been published in the white papers about the case. ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION Endorse Ryan Bill Aimed at Ku Klux Klan The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that a telegram had been sent to Representative Thomas J. Ryan of New York, endorsing his bill requiring members of such organizations as the Ku Klux Klan to file a list of their members with the Postoffice Department. The telegram which was signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Advancement Association, is as follows: Hon. Thomas J. Ryan, House of Representatives, Washington, D. C. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, heartily endorses your bill requiring filing of memberships of Ku Klux Klan and such organizations with the Postoffice Department. We shall be glad to render any assistance possible to secure legislation putting Ku Klux Klan under federal control. JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, Secretary. Ask Commerce Commission Probe of Jim Crow Accommodations. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced that the Interstate Commerce Commission had been asked to extend its investigation of discrimination in freight rates in southern interstate railway traffic to the discrimination against colored passengers by segregation in Jim-Crow cars. The letter, which is signed by James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the Advancement Association, is as follows: Hon. George B. McGinty, Secretary, Interstate Commerce Commission, Washington, D. C.: Dear Sir: The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People having received a copy of the Order in Docket No. 13,494, issued by the Interstate Commerce Commission and directing that investigation be made of freight rates to, from and within southern territory, begs to request that that order be extended to apply to passenger as well as to freight rates. The phrase in the commission's press release explaining the need for this investigation of freight rates could be applied verbatim to the passenger situation, for "the rates in question, in many instances, differ materially for substantially similar hauls on like classes of traffic," as it is a notorious and universally admitted fact that colored passengers in southern traffic are charged first class passenger rates but are served with inadequate, inferior and insufficient accommodations. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, in the event of compliance with its request by the Interstate Commerce Commission, will undertake to gather and present at the hearings of the commission, necessary evidence covering this point. Yours very truly, JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, Secretary. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, APRIL 8 1922 Kansas Labor Men Ask Senator Curtis to Fight for Dyer Bill. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, today announced receipt of copy of a letter addressed to Senator Curtis of Kansas by the Topeka Industrial Council, representing thousands of organized laboring men in Kansas. The letter is as follows: TOPEKA INDUSTRIAL COUNCIL, Topeka, Kan., March 7, 1922. Hon. Charles Curtis, U. S. Senate, Washington, D. C.: Dear Senator: The Topeka Industrial Council, representing 8,000 organized workers, is very much interested in the bill, known as the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, now pending in that branch of our national government, of which you are an honorable and able member. It is reported, that the fight against the bill will "be a very difficult one," for the lack of some strong and experienced senator, to take hold of it and put it over. In view of this reported situation, the Topeka Industrial Council in regular meeting assembled, decided to ask you if you will take hold of the bill, and press it to passage. The disturbed conditions of affairs ares uch, that the passage of the bill will be considered a step in favor of a greater civilization, safeguarding human rights. With sentiments of very high regard, Very truly yours, (Signed) PRESIDENT. SECRETARY. Great Negro Editor Dies Baltimore, April 5.—John H. Murphy, publisher of the Afro-American for the last twenty-five years, and one of the best known Negro editors in the country, died today, aged 81. Another link in the chain of our newspaper editors is broken—and this time our noted editor and publisher, John H. Murphy of the Afro-American, one of our leading journals of this country. Having lived for eighty-one years and so devoted to the cause of his people and the establishing of real constructive work for his race, Editor Murphy was popular among his own as well as the other side, for his fearlessness and fair dealing in championing anything for the benefit of humanity. Though of advanced years when he died, yet he will be greatly missed, and his memory will ever linger with us. As a worker in the same field as our late respected editor, the COLORADO STATESMAN offers its deepest sympathy to the relatives of the deceased and pays tribute to a life that was spent for the edification of the people. EDITOR OF CHICAGO WHIP DIES. Chicago, Ill., April 1.—William E. Linton, founder and co-editor of the Chicago Whip, died Sunday morning in a health resort at Asheville, N. C., after an illness of nearly a year. He was a native of Atlanta, Ga., the son of the Rev. T. L. Linton, a presiding elder of the A. M. E. Church. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Emerald Linton, a brother, and his father. Burial took place in Atlanta. Mr. Linton was a brilliant forceful thinker and writer and an exponent of the newest school of newspaper making. Howard Ready to Face Rivals in Debating Contests Washington, D. C.—Announcement is made of representatives to defend Howard in its dual debate with Atlanta University and in the triangular debates with Lincoln and Union. The Howard team to debate Atlanta University on April 14, in the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel will be composed of Milo Craveth Murray of Nashville, Tenn., and Yancy L. Sims of Atlanta, Ga. The Triangular Debating League, consisting of Atlanta, Howard and Union universities, will hold its debates on the evening of April 28. The Howard team to meet Union in Washington will consist of Frederick Hardob Robb of Hartford, Conn., Louis Eugene King, Buckeyestown, Md., and Harold Edward Bledsoe, Marlin, Tex. The Howard team to meet Lincoln University at Lincoln will be: Earl Russell Alexander of Washington, D. C., Edward A. Simmons of Charleston, S. C., and Zephaniah Alexander Looby of Antigua, B. W. I. The alternates are: Albert C. Gilbert of New York City, James Arthur Curry of Thomasville, N. C., James Garland Wood, Cotton Plant, Ark., Arnold E. Stowe and Frank Williams of Fayetteville, N. C. With the final selection of the three teams to represent Howard University all preliminary arrangements regarding the coming intercollegiate debates have been determined and the student body is looking forward with confidence to the results. The personnel of the teams represents previous debating experience as well as a high standard of forensic ability which is undoubtedly due to the unusual interest in debating this year. There has been keen competition among the prospects for the honor of representing the university in debating. One of the contributing factors to the unusual interest shown in debating this year has been the formation at Howard of a national honorary debating fraternity to which only varsity debaters are eligible. The conference held at Howard on March 25, to which delegates from Lincoln and Virginia Union universities came, led to permanent organization of the honorary debating society to be known as the Delta Sigma Chi fraternity. The historic Kappa Sigma Debating society of Howard, the Kappa Gamma Chi of Virginia Union University, and the Delta Rho Forensic society of Lincoln University merged into the new national honorary fraternity. This is the first honorary fraternity to be established among Negro college men. Its aims are similar to those of the Delta Sigma Rho existing among the leading white colleges—the development of a closer relationship among debaters in Negro colleges, the promotion of higher ideals in debating, and the warding of honorary keys for meritorious work. The provisional officers of the fraternity are: J. Garland Wood of Howard University, president; Frederick D. Johnson of Virginia Union University, vice president, and E. Luther Brooks of Lincoln University, secretary-treasurer. CONFEDERATE VETERANS HON. OR FORMER SLAVE. Winchester, Va., April 1.—Saturday, Confederate veterans were the honorary pallbearers at the funeral of "Alf" Whiting, a former slave, who died at Roanoke. Whiting, one of the few surviving slaves, who served in the Confederate army, attended every Confederate reunion and selected his own pallbearers. He was attached to Company K, Thirteenth Virginia infantry, was captured, refused to take the oath of allegiance to the federal government, and finally was released on bonds of $6,000, with the understanding that he would return to Virginia during the period of the war. NO 25 Discouragement Is a Disease The moment you yield to discouragement all your mental faculties become depressed. They lose power. There is no co-ordination of effort among them; consequently they fail to do vigorous team-work. Your initiative is paralyzed, your executive ability strangled. You are in no condition to do anything effectively. Your whole mentality is placed at a tremendous disadvantage, and until this enemy is driven out of your mind, neutralized by the affirmation and the contemplation of its opposites—of courage, cheer, hope, and a vigorous expectation of splendid things to come—you are in no condition to do good work. Every suggestion of discouragement, of fear, of failure, is a destructive force, and in the degree that we allow ourselves to be influenced by it will tear down and tard our life processes, our life work. It will darken the mind and cause one to make fatally wrong decisions, to take which may ruin one's happiness, one's whole life. When trials and troubles come to us, when overwhelmed with sorrow, when death comes into our home and snatches away some dear one, it is very difficult to see through the torn, to pierce the dark clouds and see the healing sun behind them. Struggling with the sorrow of that great loss in our life, it doesn't seem as if we could ever be happy again. When so suffering we wonder in a sort of dumb resentment how other people can possibly be laughing, having a good time, going to theaters, dances, enjoying life as usual. It seems cruel, almost, for others to enjoy when we feel as if we could never even smile again. But we know that time heals the deepest sorrows, that physical and mentalills pass away, and that the brave soul is the one that adapts itself to the storms and sunshine of life.—Constructor. Colored Citizens Present Vital Facts to Commerce Chamber Colored Citizens Present Vital Facts to Commerce Chamber Atlantic City, N. J., March 25—On Friday evening, March 24, a committee of leading colored citizens met the Chamber of Commerce in the first inter-racial meeting ever held with that body. The meeting was held in the auditorium of the Yacht Club. The chamber entertained the visitors with a radio telephone concert connecting with the tations at Schenectady, N. Y., and Pittsburgh. After the concert the president of the chamber, Mr. Samuel P. Leeds, introduced the colored visitors and turned the meeting over to them. Mr. Benjamin G. Fitzgerald, the only colored member of the chamber, was master of ceremonies. Mr. F. D. Francis, the first speaker, explained the purpose of the inter-racial meetings. He took occasion to drive home to the audience the utter folly of fostering antagonism. He mentioned concrete instances of humiliating experiences of the race in being segregated in local motion picture theaters and the consequent hatred that these things engendered. He told the members that life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness were every man's right and when these are denied it snells ultimate ruin for the nation. Rev. Jas. N. Deaver, rector of St. Augustine Episcopal Church, spoke on "The Influence of the Church in the Community." Dr. Edward B. Terry vigorously attacked the rent-gouging landlords and spoke so eloquently on the insanitary living conditions among colored tenants that the mayor who was present asked the location of these houses in order that he might remedy these conditions. Mr. D. A. Bailey spoke for the West Indian Negro in the community and mentioned the fact that he is always identified with progressive things. Dr. W. E. Braswell told of the work accomplished in the dental clinics in the public schools. Counsellor James A. Lightfoot spoke on the need of better accommodations for colored visitors to the resort and how he proposed Million Dollar Hotel Fitzgerald will meet that need. This met with the hearty approval of the chamber. PREPARING ALIENS FOR CITIZENSHIP ——-—THE——- COLORADO STATESMAN 3ECRETARY OF LABOR DAVIS HAS COME FORWARD WITH CoM. PREHENSIVE PLAN.

SS on ae By EDWARD B. CLARK the alien newcomer roam about the country to find a job und find a home, jand to become a citizen pretty much | without help or guidance, He came | over lere tn the steerage und he needs | steerage still, He is still a child In our ways, with no knowledge of the immense new privileges he enjoys. Secretary of Labor Davis wants Uncle Sam to keep track of that man—not to regulate him, but to help him, to teach and encourage him, He wants Uncle Sam not in the attitude of a policeman but of a friend, a true uncle, He wants to see every school in the country devote its after hours to the schooling of these prospective and receptive new citizens, We need to know how they are forging on as wage- earners and as members of our free society, he argues. We need to know the whereabouts of these people if It Is only to protect them from the insidious poison of red propaganda, which from personal knowledge he feels to be an ever-present danger. We need all the educational machinery we can organize | to battle this evil influence, Secretary Davis says. He would have every immigrant reg- ister, wherever he is, every year—not In order to spy upon him, but only to be sure of his safety, so that we can reach him to teach him. Just as Amer- lean citizens pay a poll tax for the privilege of voting, Secretary Davis be- | leves the new allen should pay a. nom- ‘inal fee for his certificate of registry. A very small fee from several million aliens would amply provide the De- partment of Labor, he estimates, with funds sufficient for the upkeep of a broad educational system, such as he has in mind—to run our schools as schools of citizenship for these older children. Seeks Bureau of Recreation. One of the most effective ways of making citizenship attractive to all, to newcomer and to old-timer, broadens out of his plan of registry and revenue. He is going to ask congress to give him authority to set up a bureau of recrea- tlon for all America. He intends thts bureau to be dedicated to the proposi- tion that “recreation is the big brother of education.” That bureau should be shaped, ac- cording to his vision, so as to bring wholesome and healthful amusement into the lives of our people. As soon as times improve he intends to push practical plans toward that end. Such a bureau of recreation would naturally belong under the wing of the Depart- ment of Labor, because the great ranks of the American people are the workers, he says. ‘Their lives have been dull enough, and he knows all this, because he, as an immigrant, worked as puddler In the fron and steel mills. Secretary Davis quotes his friend John Golden of New York, the proml- nent theatrical producer: “This bureau would grasp with its kindly, encouraging arms every pos- sible recreative movement of the ay- ‘erage people. Its powerful and wise op- erations cannot help but make for bet- | ter citizenship and a happler people.” b Need for Archives Building. ‘The long-admitted necessity for a national archives building, to house the priceless historical records of the | United States government, which now are scattered throughout the various | government departments, and stored in both government-owned and rented | buildings, where there is a grave fire hazard, is again urged upon congress, with the prospect that the present con- | gress will finally act upon this impor- |tant matter, which has been recom- | mended by the highest government | officials of both political parties for | more than a decade, | William Howard ‘Taft, the present | chief justice, when he was President | sent to congress a message in 1912 stressing “the necessity for the erec- tion of a building to contain the pub- Ue archives.” As Chief Executive he impressed upon congress that “the unsatisfactory distribution of rec- ords, the lack of any proper index or geld to thghe fonteats, ip wall known ose familar to the needs of te government in this capital.” With this message he transmitted to con- gress cofrespondence he had had with Prof. J. Franklin Jameson, director of the department of historical re- search of the Carnegie institution of Washington, in which Professor Jame- Bon urged action, as a member of a committee appointed by the execu- tive council of the American Historl- cal association, to bring the matter to the attention of the President and con- gress, Representative Simeon D. Fess of Ohio, chairman, of the house com- ‘mittee on education, recognized as ‘one of the greatest students of his- tory and politien! science and gov- /‘rnmental research in this country, guant the fundamental dvcu:nents und historseal papers of the nation, through putting them in a model building, where they will be accessible to his- torians. torlans, Difficulties in the Way. An act of March 4, 1913, pussed in response to President Taft's, messuge, as amended by the aet of June 28, 1916, In consequence of Representa- tive Fess’ speech, authorized u site and building of a permanent home for the national archives, but It proved thut the site was not to be acquired until after the approval of the de- signs und estimates for the® building by 4 commission consisting of the vice president, the speaker of the house of representatives and the secretaries of the Treasury, War and Interlor de- partments. Owing to the character of nis legis- lation it has not been possible to pre- pare other than typical plans, the arch- itectural treatment being largely de- pendent upon the location and sur- roundings of the site to be subse- quently selected. $ Official reports made to congress showed that papers of inestimable value are now stored In numerous out- of-the-way and inaccessible places. It has for more than a decade been the unanimous conviction of all who have looked into the situation that all pos- sible means for the proper care and protection of valuable official docu- ments under existing conditions are now being utilized, and thelr manifest inadequacy demonstrates the urgent necessity for an archives building. ‘The additional seeurity against loss or destruction of official papers, the economy in time and labor resulting from the greatly improved factlitles for examining the same, and the con- sequent increased efficiency in the pub- lic service would all appear to be strong arguments in favor of the speedy construction of the building. In addition, It is pointed out that the con- struction and occupancy of the pro- posed building would release much space which is greatly needed to re- lieve congested conditions in depart- mental buildings. It develops that the supervising architect of the treasury told the house appropriations committee that he doubled If there is sufficient authority to make the appropriation. There seems to be an honest difference of opinion in congress on that point, al- though the majority view is that there is sufficient authority. Capital as Convention City. ‘The numerous advantages of the na- tional capital as a convention city for business organizations were impressed deeply on the minds of several lun- dred delegates to the midwinter meet- Ing of the National Association of Reul Estate boards during their stay in this city as guests of the local board. Don D. Goss of Chicago, director of research for the national association, whose duty it is ordinarily on such occasions to precede the delegates to the meeting place and arrange for the convention, on arriving here found that officlals of the local board had made complete arrangements for the entire series of sessions. Every desire of the visitors was an ticipated and met in advance through a well-arranged program of hospitality and entertainment, in which all the members of the board and a good many of thelr wives took part. Many of the delegates did not hes!- tate to state that the banquet tender- ed the executive committeemen by the local realtors eclipsed any function of the kind ever participated in by the committee as a whole. The elaborate souvenir menus, containing colored photographs of the armistice day lght- ing effects and of the Lincoln memor- fal, were preserved as n memento of the affair by the guests. Auditorium Is Great Need. In desiring to cater to every want of the visitors, representing leading realty interests of the country, the Jocal board had in mind something more than being considered an able host. ‘The knowledge that in the near future Washington will be equipped with an auditorium capable of aecom- modating the entire membership of the National Association of Real Estate Boards In annual convention was an impelling motive, It Is understood. Washington has never been selected as the convention place of the whole organization, due to lack of auditor ium facilities here, it 1s pointed out. ‘Phe convention last year in Chicago was sald to have been the largest gath- ering of business men in the history of the country. Only citles with halls large enough to hold the vast assem- blages of realtors have been fortunate enough to be selected as the aunual meeting place. ‘The convention this year will be held in San Francisco, beginning May 81 and lasting through the first week in June. An idea of the program of such a convention is given in the fol- c iG C aie | CAD ULE La GL The FREE seain e Machine Invented and Patented by W. C.

The Service Is Yours— | WHILE the plant of The Telephone Company belongs to the stock- holders, the Service belongs to the public; and it is under the control of the public to a much larger extent than it could pos- sibly be controlled by the Company inde- pendently of the public. As a matter of fact, the telephone or- ganization is simply an agency through which a community serves itself. If this agency is hampered by unreasonable legislation, restrictions or requirements, or by inadequate revenues, or by unjust burdens of taxation, the ability of the agency to properly function is impaired if not wholly destroyed. Because of the requirements of the pub- lic for efficient and abundant telephone service, the public has a very vital interest in the financial health and general well- being of the Company. With your whole-hearted moral and financial support the Company can con- tinue to give you the quality and quantity of service you require. Ge Mountain States Telephone and Telegraph Co.

It readily appealed offered their assistance in unmerged fall through. This was indeed civic progress. We must confer cities, as well as being willing to essentially our own. But Denver lies since then, and a movement of virtuous leadership would be more matter will become the property of other organizations, to the end the year may have a fuller meaning of efforts to ameliorate the sur CONDUCTED under the direction of the United States Public Health Service, the National Negro Health Week just closed carried an added significance this year. For many years compilers of vital statistics have been able to prove that the death rate among Negroes was excessively large, especially in such cities as Chicago, New York and Boston. The argument was freely advanced that American Negroes were visibly short-lived and particularly susceptible to disease through comparative poverty and because of a lack of social hygiene education. During the past eight years, however, a notable change has taken place, and the bulletins issued by the United States Public Health Service this week shows that the mortality rate among Negroes has greatly decreased. The National Negro Health Week is distinctly a Tuskegee institution, and by working in co-operation with the United States Health Service and other associations has wrought wonders. The Urban League and its scientific methods of sanitation and hygiene have also been a large factor in bringing about this improved condition. The regrettable phase of the situation, however, is that greater attention is not given to the advantage laid down in the comprehensive survey of health week all over the country. Such a conference held annually in Tuskegee, even though broad and far-reaching in its influence, cannot alone solve the problem. It must have the co-operation of all cities and their kindred organizations. We doubt whether here in Denver that such a thing as a National Negro Health Week was anything more than a hazy memory. We are blessed with a wonderful climate and our group are singularly free from many of the hurtful, unsanitary conditions that are so prevalent in many eastern cities. But Colorado, and especially Denver, have been the Mecca of many from the East and South afflicted with the dread disease—tuberculosis. They come to this state through the allurement of climate and rarified atmosphere, hoping to gain relief and perchance a permanent cure. That many of these hopes have ended in bitter disappointment is largely due to the fact that we as a race are wholly unprepared to properly care for our own, even when they come with ample finances to pay for every accommodation. Some years ago there was a sensible and highly commendable move inaugurated to establish what was to be known as the Lincoln-Douglass Sanitarium. The proposition sounded well and possessed positive merit. It readily appealed to many white citizens of large means, who offered their assistance in unmeasured sums, but for many reasons the matter fell through. This was indeed a hurtful blot on our boasted race pride and civic progress. We must confess to a flat failure to live up to our opportunities, as well as being willing to render a service and assume an obligation essentially our own. But Denver and Colorado have progressed along all lines since then, and a movement of this character now under capable, conscientious leadership would be more likely of becoming a success. We hope this matter will become the property of the Denver Colored Civic Association and other organizations, to the end that the National Negro Health Week of next year may have a fuller meaning for all, and find us in the midst of constructive efforts to ameliorate the sufferings of our fellow beings. TIME AND TIDE. small boy—many years ago—tart task or duty would invariably that time and tide waited for must always count time as a p ahead of the tide or be engulfance of the warning then as and progress were not so apparent pressing in upon every side, wiety appealing to our energies, a tomorrow. "Life is real, life WHEN we were a small boy—many years ago—tardiness in the performance of a given task or duty would invariably bring the admonition from our elders that time and tide waited for no man. It was a gentle reminder that we must always count time as a present factor and that one must speedily keep ahead of the tide or be engulfed. It was not so easy to grasp the full significance of the warning then as now, for the complex problems of existence and progress were not so apparent as at present. With the affairs of today pressing in upon every side, with multifarious duties both to home and society appealing to our energies, there can be no such thing as a yesterday or a tomorrow. "Life is real, life is earnest," and man can no longer justify his earthly existence by reveling in a dream of the dead past nor through fanciful flights of future triumphs and glory. He has only lived and lived truly who finds completeness and happiness in the NOW. Just a short while ago we sat beneath the spell of a powerful sermon by the Rt. Rev. F. W. Ingly, Bishop Coadjutor of the Diocese of Colorado, who approached a thrilling climax by saying, "In God's name, those things you are going to do some sweet day, DO NOW." Certainly it was a forceful and apt admonition, especially when offered to a class of new confirmants, who had solemnly taken the vow to enter the Christian warfare of clean living and valued citizenship. The present moments are the most precious, for it is today that we truly live. With each rising sun man faces new conditions, and between that sunrise and sunset he gives evidence of his capabilities and his earnestness. A wasted today harbor but little good for tomorrow, and is but travesty upon yesterday. The quiet old Quaker poet, John Greenleaf Whittier, once sweetly said, "The present is all thou hast for the sure possessing, and like the patriarch's angel, hold fast 'til thou receive thy blessing." Who is there that would question the potency of this beautiful observation. Riches or poverty, tears or laughter, failure or success, tragedy or triumph, honor or defeat may be our portion today, which we must accept with no thought of yesterday nor fears for tomorrow. A man finds himself enmeshed in difficulties of finance or social problems today, and it is today, not tomorrow, that the effort to extricate himself must be put forth. A successful bank or clearing house strikes its balance each day. So must it be with the human soul in its ability to co-operate with the divine soul. "Let the dead past bury its dead" applies as surely to yesterday as to yester-years. This does not mean that life is not to be admirably embollished with pleasant memories nor refreshed by hope. We have our reminiscences no less truly than our dreams. But these are the ethereal things of life, not the material. Duty, then, becomes the only actuality of human existence, and duty applies solely to the present. It is not alone man's birthright, his inheritance, it is a divine obligation. Neither greatness or riches or fame may be attained in a day, but the elements of a successful leading up to these are in our possession today. So with high resolves and true conception, we admit into our hearts once again the sweet reminder that "time and tide waits for no man." We dispel vain regrets and foolish hopes, adopting as our creed, "Nothing is real but today. Yesterday is but a fading memory, rushing onwardtoward oblivion. Tomorrow is but a misty vision in the future, a mirage that fades as we approach. All we have is the present. Why weep o'er the past or sigh for the future? Why lose our TODAY for the uncertainty of tomorrow? The river of life still flows, carrying happiness with it. Shall we wallow in the quagmire of doubt or sorrow, or shall we plunge into the living stream and enjoy the certainty of today? There can be but one answer.

Burns of 1847 Marion street dug up the secret of the 25th marriage anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Shirley Liggins on last Saturday and called in a few intimate friends for a real old- fashioned surprise. Mr, and Mrs. Lig- gins have made many valued friends in the short time they have been Den- ver residents and the beautiful anni- versary party arranged by Mr. and Mrs. Burns was a most fitting test- monial. An elegent lunch was served and a silver token presented to each of the guests of honor. It was an even- ing crowded with pleasure. OLD. CITIZENS OF IDAHO SPRINGS, COLO., ANSWER FINAL CALL. “I have fought good fight, I have finished the work Thou gavest me to do.” ‘These words can be well applied to John Ti. Brushwood and his wife Laura Jane Brushwood, who lived for ninety- eight and seventy-two years respective- ly, and who died within a week of each other, the wife haying passed away Inst week Monday and the hus- band Monday of this week. For forty-two years these highly re- spected citizens were domiciled at Idaho Springs and won the respect and admiration of all the residents in this part of the state that was once very prominent in the gold production of Colorado. ‘The funeral services were held at Calvary Episcopal Church, Thursday, March 80, for Mrs. Brush- wood, and during the week for Mr. Brushwood. ‘The Rev. Smith priest in charge, performed the ceremonies and offered very commendable remarks on the life work of these two saintly char- acters which brought consolation to the relatives and numerous friends who gathered to pay thelr last respects. ‘The bells were tolled out of respect to the memory of the deceased, while Resolutions were read from the Uni- versal Negro Improvement Associa- tlon, of which they were members. The floral offerings were rare and beautiful. Four sons, George, John, Clement, Hubert Brushwood, and daughter, Mrs. Bertha Jones, were present. Interment in the town cem- etery. ‘Thus end the lives of two beautiful characters wh) have left us a very good example. ‘The COLORADO STATESMAN offers its sincere cou dolence, COLORADO SPELLING AND ORA- TORY CONTEST. ‘The state contest for’ spelling and oratory being conducted in the Capl- tol building this week and embracing schools from nearly every county in the state, brought to Denver Miss Youra Thelma Qualls, a young colored girl of 11 years of age, who is a verita- ble marvel. Miss Youra is a twin and was tied with her sister, Miss Ima Thotsis Qualls for first place in the Alamosa county contest. In the state contest for spelling she gained third place with the high aver- age of 98 over a field of fifty-one con- testants. She was accompanied by her mother, Mrs. Qualls, who is very proud of her talented daughter, as are all Denver members of the race. It is pleasing to announce that Miss Qualls shared equally and without the shadow of a difference in the many social fune- tions and pleasures arranged for the visiting pupils. They were the guests of Mr. and Mrs, Chas. Martin while in the city. THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH. David E. Over, Minister, ‘The past Sunday Zion was visited by the Rev. I. Harrison Wallace of Trinidad. Rev. Wallace gave to the congregation a splendid sermon. For- merly an active member of and or- dained by our church, it is quite nat- ural that we take delight in the suc- cess of Zion's former Sunday School superintendent. Deacon Jerry Bates was buried from the church Inst Monday afternoon. Brother Bates was one of the most faithful and loyal of Zion’s members and consequently his departing will be felt. His widow has the sympathy of all the community. Special preparations are in the mak- ing to properly celebrate the Baster season. The Sunday School will render a children’s program which, it is hoped, all the parents and other adults writ witness. The choir is preparing spe- celal music for the morning service. The pastor will preach from the sub- Ject, “Our Easter Hope.” All are wel- come, Y. M. C. A. NOTES. ‘The Cadets were taken by their of- ficers to City Park last Saturday, where they spent a pleasant and ‘strenuous day. ‘They came back in the afternoon tired but happy. The older boys have taken advan- tage of the week's holiday to get in some good baseball work. ‘They played nearly every afternoon this week, and won some and lost some. That is life. On Tuesday evening many of the checker players took cold feet, and failed to show up. They had heard that there were going to be some “stiff players” on hand, and were afraid to try them, During the course of the evening Bell beat Bradshaw, shutting him completely out, with the exception of one game. And then Bradshaw, as if in revenge for the flogging he had received, turned about and got one game on Hervey, after they had played half a dozen draws. The games will be continued next Tuesday evening, and will be open to any player. In spite of everything that was go- ing on last Sunday afternoon, the meet- ing turned out to be a good one. Prof. J. A. Jeancon, curator of the State Museum, gave a most intensely Ulus- trated lecture on “Prehistoric Colo- rado.” ‘The program tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon will be in keeping with Palm Sunday. Good music has been pre- pared, and a good program will be ren- dered. The meeting will begin prompt- pat avorcloek: SAIL Wil ba welcome: c. M. E. CHURCH NOTES. Services every Sunday at the Y. M. ©.

Davis, president of the Denver Civic and Commercial As- sociation, was the principal speaker at a meeting of the Denver Colored Civic Association Wednesday night last that ‘in many respects was the greatest in ‘its history. Coming before the Colored body for the first time since he as- sumed the reigns of authority over the Denver Civic and Commercial Associa- tion, President Davis appeared easily at home and delivered an address that should have been heard by every Ne- gro citizen of Denver, He adopted as his theme the three words adopted as motto by the Colored association, viz.: Determination, Co-Operation and Education. His address was scholarly throughout and gave ample evidence that the right man was at the helm of Denver's civic affairs, He was ac- corded the closest attention and was given an ovation at the close of his address, Maj. Thos. Campbell, presi dent of the Colored Civic Association, then read a list of the standing com- mittees for the year 1922, and gave a brief outline of the general work and plans held in contemplation. Mr. O. T, Jackson, founder of the Dearfield colony, and a man recognized as a Col- orado builder, was the next speaker, and his address was accorded a treat by all present, leaning rather strongly, too much so, in fact, toward political issues. Still Mr. Jackson offered sage and timely advice, as well as pointing a way to the solution of many prob- lems now considered insurmountable by us. The Dearfield colony is a suc- cess and to 0, T. Jackson more than ‘to any other single factor can this be attributed. Following Mr, Jackson's ‘address Lieut. George Hamilton, a Senior in the law school of Kansas University, and a relative of our own attorney S. EB, Cary, was introduced and made a short but very inspiring address, Lieut, Hamilton represented Kansas University in an inter-colle- giate debate with Colorado University at Boulder Monday night, and , the Kansas team won. He is a very bril- liant young man and President Camp- bell voiced the sentiments of every one present in expressing regret that the association had not more signally honored his presence in Denver. Messrs. Bowen and Harris, two young Colored men who have invented an airplane, appeared before the body and after an explanation of their pro- Ject were given a neat sum as a finan- cial recognition of their inventive gen- ius. After voting $10 to Anti-Lynching fund’ the Denver branch N, A. A. C.

Turning out a beautiful line of Easter millinery that is catching the fancy of all Denver lovers of nifty spring head gear, Miss Grace Walker, who spent several years in Chicago perfecting her knowledge of the art, is making a real hit with her creations. She is being overwhelmed with orders and her success is high tribute to her pluck, energy and business fore-sight. EASTER AT BAUR’S. ‘The last word in Easter Novelties, embracing all manner of confections, are to be found at the famous Baur's store these days. Always up to the minute, with an ability to meet dis- criminating tastes of Denver society, the Easter Sunday Specinis being of- fered by Baur's this year far surpass any previous efforts and certainly it would be well for any one to look over their line. THE COLORADO STATESMAN feels a special interest in the progress of this well known firm as they are the largest employers ‘of Negro labor in Denver. DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO. FUNERAL NOTICES.

Fifty-seven boys took part last year but twice as many are expected this year. Colorado Springs.—Col. W. A. Davis, a local broker, and W. H.

Colorado Springs.—A terrific detonation which awakened the north end of Colorado Springs has been traced to a bomb which exploded on the lawn at the home of Dr. Dunlway. No damage was done.

Denver.—Michigan has followed the lead taken by Minnesota in co-operating with Colorado tourist information agencies for a reciprocal "exchange of tourists" between the Great Lakes region and the Rockies, according to Harry N. Burhans, secretary of the Denver tourist bureau, who returned recently from Grand Rapids. Denver.—Oliver H. Shoup, governor of Colorado, has filed in the District Court a suit for $300,000 damages for alleged slander against several insurance men and two newspaper men.

Denver.—Great interest already is being manifested in every county of Colorado over the Third Annual State Spelling Contest and the Second Annual Oratorical Contest which are to be held at the state house on April 4. CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS. Eldorado Springs.—Hope of saving the Moffat tunnel No. 16, just west of Eldorado Springs, was given up and engineers from Denver were sent to the place to see what could be done to rebuild the tunnel or to build around it. The source of the fire has not been determined, although it generally is believed that it was caused by sparks from an engine. The tunnel is 800 feet long, and according to the officers of the Moffat road, is virtually destroyed. This is because of the fact that the hill through which the tunnel is built is of a disintegrated-granite formation. Denver.—Martial law will be proclaimed by Governor Shoup without delay in any part of Colorado where an emergency arises during the nationwide coal strike, Adjt. Gen. P. J. Hammock of the Colorado National Guard and head of the state rangers warned. "In the event a disturbance of any kind develops as a result of the miners' suspension of work, I will immediately request Governor Shoup to issue a proclamation declaring martial law in the district concerned," he declared. Boulder.—Two thousand invitations have been issued to high schools west of the Mississippi river to compete in the third annual all-western track meet to be staged here May 13.

In conjunction with the big meet a state high school tourney will be held to determine the all-Colorado championships. Loveland.—Reports from the Rocky Mountain Parks Transportation Company and all the eastern railroads are to the effect that the tourist season this year will be heavier than ever before known in the history of Estes Park. The transportation company says it has more advance bookings for reservations than ever before, and that the season will start sooner than usual this year, while railroads say inquiries are more numerous than since before the war. Las Animus.—The Santa Fé Railway Company has awarded a contract for putting in 160,000 yards of fill on their branch line road, known as the Satanta extension, which starts at Dodge City, Kan., and extends toward Springfield, Baca county, Colorado. Optimism prevails that the company will extend this line across Baca county, Colo., and there is much activity in that section, the people feeling assured of a railroad before the end of the present year. Loveland.—Mrs. Abe Dorsman was removed to a hospital here in a critical condition alleged to have been received when she was beaten by her husband at her home. Physicians stated that Mrs. Dorsman has only a slight chance to recover, due to her physical condition at the time the attack is alleged to have occurred.

Denver.—Coffers of the state are enriched $23,103.89 during the last fifteen days in March, according to a report made public by the state inheritance tax department, showing individual and total collections during the period. The largest individual collection was made of the estate of Harry Shaw of Weld county.

Fort Collins.—Supporting the negative of the closed shop question, Colorado State Agricultural College debaters defeated Oklahoma Agricultural College at the closing session of the PiKappa Delta national forensic convention at Indianola, Iowa. Denver.—All members of the state ranger force have been detailed to duty by Colonel Hamrock in the leading mining fields of the state in anticipation of the impending nation-wide coal strike April 1, it has been announced at the state house.

These state police are fully equipped, it was said. Colorado Springs—The holders of Cresson stock in Denver and Colorado will be interested to learn that a satisfactory settlement has been reached in the test case of the Cresson Gold Mining Company of Cripple Creek versus the government, as a result of which it is believed a saving of approximately $500,000 will be effected, according to word received here.

Denver.—The total average reserve in all Colorado state banks at the close of business March 10 was 3.5 per cent greater than that shown by the December call, according to information given out by Grant McPerson, state bank commissioner.

Served With Tomato Sauce Is Appetizing Dish. Fish contains practically the same amount of protein as does fresh meat. It is easily digested and appetizing, but the average appetite tires of it sooner than of meat. Particularly is this true of the stronger flavored fish. A small amount of this will be sufficient to flavor an entire dish of mild-flavored material. The following recipes 'do it successfully: Scalloped Fish $1 \frac{1}{2}$ cupfuls nsh. toes. $1 \frac{1}{2}$ cupfuls cooked 1 cupful white rices or riced pota- sauce. Use canned, dried, salt, or left-over fresh fish. If dried fish is used, first soak it. Shred the fish and arrange in alternate layers with rice or potatoes and white sauce. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake. **Fish Loaf.** 1 cupful shredded or fine homlay. fish (smoked salt, 1 egg, or canned). $ \frac{1}{4} $ cupful milk. 6 potatoes, boiled $ \frac{1}{2} $ teaspoonful celery salt. 2 cupfuls cooked rice $ \frac{1}{2} $ teaspoonful salt. Form into loaf and bake 20 minutes. Serve with tomato sauce. Tomato Sauce. Bring one pint of canned tomatoes to the boiling point and rub through a strainer. Beat in a saucepan one tablespoonful of flour and one generous tablespoonful of butter until it is smooth and light. Gradually beat in the hot tomato. Add salt and pepper and cook ten minutes. The flavor Different Utenails Should Be Placed One and One-Half Inches From Edge of Table. In arranging the dinner table all pieces of silverware should be one and one-half inches from the edge of the table. Leave a 12-inch space in front of each place to hold the plate. Arrange the knife, sharp edge toward the plate to the right and the spoons, bowls up, to the right of the knife. The forks, tines up, are laid to the left of the center space, and to the left of the forks the napkin is placed. The glass goes one inch beyond the tip of the knife. The bread-and-butter plate goes above the plate space to the left, while any extra dish, as a sauce dish, is put Bread & Butter Cup & Saucer A Correctly Laid Table. to the right of the plate space, or if that place is occupied by the coffee cup, pushed up a short distance. All the serving dishes are evenly arranged in good order on the table, with the serving utensil, forks or spoons, lying to the right, never in the dishes themselves. It is a good plan after each meal to remove all the dishes and the cloth and put a dark but pretty table cover on the table. This takes a little extra work, but the Improved appearance warrants it. Eat slowly at a well-arranged table and the meals will be a real pleasure, not merely a necessity for actual maintenance. The Sink Pipe. Once a month in the evening pour a cupful of kerosene down the kitchen sink, and next morning pour down two gallons of boiling water. The kerosene cuts any possible grease from the sides of the waste pipes and the boiling water dissolves and washes it down, thus preventing the pipe from being stopped up. To Launder Corduroy. Wash corduroy in a suds of warm water and soap-flakes and rinse well. When partly dry brush nap with a stiff brush. When thoroughly dry brush again. For Kitchen Walls Oil paint, either a deep cream or a light tan, is an excellent finish for kitchen walls, for it can easily be cleaned and is durable. Don't Shake Rugs. Holding rugs by one end and shaking is liable to loosen the threads at the border so that the edges will begin to ravel. Frying. Don't put anything into fat to fry until the fat is boiling. Otherwise the food takes up the fat and has a fatty taste. of the tomato sauce may be modified by the addition of onion, spice or herbs. Fish Timbales. 1 cupful salmon, or hominy, tuna, or gray fish, $ \frac{1}{2} $ teaspoonful salt 1 cupful softened $ \frac{1}{2} $ teaspoonful pa- bread crumbs, prika. 1 cupful mashed po- 1 egg. tatoes, cooked rice $ \frac{1}{4} $ cupful milk Mix ingredients in order given. Pour into small buttered molds, place on rack in pan, and surround with hot water. Cover and bake until mixture is firm. Turn from the molds and serve with an acid sauce. A small amount of left-over fish can be made into a fish mold which is especially good when served on a lettuce leaf with salad dressing. Fish Mold. 1-3 teaspoonful sugar. 1½ t a b l e s p o o n f u l s cold water 1/4 cupful cold water ½ teaspoonful salt. ¼ teaspoonful celery seed. ¼ teaspoonful celery 1 cupful minced seed. fish. Beat eggs until light, add seasonings, water and vinegar, and beat thoroughly. Cook over boiling water until thickened. Soften one tablespoonful of gelatin in one-fourth cup of cold water and dissolve by placing over hot water. Add dissolved gelatin and one cupful of left-over fish to the dressing given above. Mold in individual cups or one large mold. Discarded Articles May Be Rewoven to Provide Suitable Coverings for Home Floors. Providing floor coverings for the home is often a question of making the best of what materials are at hand. One way of doing this, the United States Department of Agriculture points out, is to have new rugs woven from old woolen carpets and rugs too shabby to be used as such. Factories for doing the work may be found in many localities. The old material is cut into strips about three-fourths of an inch wide, which, when sewed together and twisted, make a cord somewhat like chenille and form the filling of the new rug. Cotton string is used for the warp. These rugs are heavy and soft, alike on both sides, and durable, provided they are cleaned carefully. They are generally rather neutral in color and without a definite design; borders, however, may be woven from strips of carpet of solid color, or figured carpet may be dyed for this purpose. In general, about $6\frac{1}{2}$ pounds of old carpet is required to make a square yard of the rewoven fabric, depending, of course, on the weight of the old material. Mopping Up. The quickest way to mop up a puddle of water on the kitchen floor of linoleum is to first moisten the mop itself. It is twice as absorbent as an absolutely dry mop cloth. To Clean Feathers You can clean soiled quills and feathers very nicely if you put them in a box of cornmeal. Shake the box gently. Then remove the feather and shake out the meal. Household Questions The high stool in the kitchen is as necessary as a chair in the dining room. Cold coffee is excellent for ferns of all kinds. Use about once a month. A half slice of white bread put in with the doughnuts will keep them light and soft. To prevent seams stretching when cut on the cross, machine a piece of tape in with the seam. * * * * Do not use a sponge or wash cloth for young bables. A fresh piece of absorbent cotton is better. * * * * French fried potatoes should be removed from the fat the instant they are done, and drained dry. * * * * If a corner is chipped off a gilt-edged frame camouflage it with chewing gum. Gild with gold paint. * * * * Pie dishes that have become brown from baking in the oven may be made quite clean by soaking in a strong solution of borax and water. Let not him who is homeless pull down the house of another, but let him labor diligently to build one for himself—Abraham Lincoln.

A survey of the new fashion makes glad the heart, for in them we find our hopes realized in that the continuance of the vogue for graceful crepes is assured. The lines are as simple as ever, the loose, soft straight effects that is made of the thin georgette crepe. "One good turn deserves another," and this being a suit season, the importance of the separate blouse automatically follows. One of the fascinations of the modern blouse is the colorful mood it expresses. Stylists decree that the blouse must stand out as the vivid color note of the costume.

There is much of the French spirit reflected in the collection of gowns at various opening displays. That is, the semi-dress effects are noted, attained not so much in elaboration as in marvelous colors. Panels are very much in evidence and many of these are beaded. Another feature is the use of coarse hand crochet lace dyed to match the dress. This use of lace constitutes one of the delights of the spring modes. Both sleeves and girdles are vastly important details. The gown itself is secondary to its sleeves in many instances. Quite a few georgette sleeves are caught into a few wedded or beaded I THE FILM OF "THE MISSING WOMAN" BY JOHN H. HARRIS, AUTOGRAPHED BY JOHN H. HARRIS, AUTOGRAPHED BY JOHN H. HARRIS. I Blouse of Toast Color Crepe Satin wrist band. The idea of designing the girdle, to harmonize with the gown is followed by eminent couturiers, who seek individuality. As to hemlines, the most of them are still gracefully uneven. Handmade roses of the fabric matching the frock are a favorite decoration. The idea of lattice fashioned from self-material is receiving considerable attention. Crystal bead chrysanthemums in this soft, gray crepe frock pictured are repeated on the huge crepe cuffs, thus accenting the transparency of the sleeve itself. The panel effects are unique and there is an underskirt of each side with headdress. Mimosa yellow is for the separate gee or canton crepe satin.

These may foundationally be of contrasting color to the suit, but in the fancy stitchery and ornamentation they harmonize to the costume complete. Handwork has considerable to do with the success of the dressy blouse. A very charming idea is to applique flowers and leaves cut from the cloth of the suit, using crepe de chine for the foundational fabric. Beading continues to be the leading thought for blouse treatment. The newest idea is to use large pearl beads, running them throughout the pattern in a single row, flanked on I each side with heavy silk embroidery. Mimosa yellow is a favorite shade for the separate georgette, crepe satin or canton crepe blouse. The blouse here shown is of toast-color crepe satin. The broad girdle blas fold, the sleeve finishings and the neck binding are bright rust color. Satin-pearl beads combined with yarn embroidery is the scheme of hand decoration.
