Dallas, Tex., April 15, 1922.—(Special.)—Declaring that "lynching is the black spot on American's soul," that "we have no security unless the law protects us," and that "law and order must be maintained at all costs," leading women from all parts of Texas met in Dallas a few days ago and organized for the purpose of seeking a Christian solution of the tangled problem of race relations. Mrs. Jessie Daniel Ames of Georgetown was elected chairman and Mrs. S. Turner of Dallas, secretary. The membership committee embraces representatives of the principal civic and religious organizations of the state, Mrs. Percy V. Penybacker being a notable figure in the group.
A strong address was drafted and given to the public, recognizing the condition of the Negro in the South as a community problem affecting the welfare of both races and demanding for its solution the application of the principles of humanity and justice. An appeal was made for the rights of every child to a reasonable chance in life and for a single standard of morality that will protect the womanhood of all races.
The women's committee will function as a section of the Texas Committee on Inter-Racial Co-operation, the purpose of which is to organize in every community where race relations constitute a serious problem a group of the best people to study local conditions and needs and deal with them intelligently and in a Christian spirit. Dr. J. C. Hardy is chairman of the State Committee. It was stated that in many communities the plan had averted threatened trouble and displaced acute situations by confidence and good will.
The Address Adopted by the Women Follows in Full.
"We, the members of the woman's section of the Texas State Committee on Inter-Racial Co-operation, find ourselves overwhelmed with the opportunity and the corresponding responsibility which we this day face in sharing the task of bringing about better conditions and relations in the South between the white and Negro races. * * * We deplore the fact that the relations for the past fifty years have been such as to separate the two races through a lack of understanding on the part of both. We know that ignorance takes its toll in crime and inefficiency, that disease and death are no respecters of persons, but that they sweep across the boulevards from the places of squalor and insanitary living, to the best kept and most protected homes. We know also that crine is not segregated and that its results are felt alike by all classes.
"We are persuaded that our native Southland can never reach its highest destiny while any part of its people are ignorant, underfed and inefficient. Therefore, together we must meet our task and seek to bring in a new day of better understanding. To this end we
---
call attention to some of the underlying causes of present day ills:
PREJUDICE.
"Recognizing the universal existence of prejudice among people of different races, and deploring its existence and its consequent unjust results, we therefore are resolved that the Negro should have a hearing in his own behalf, and further resolve that we shall not be content simply with being kindly disposed to the race, but that our good will shall reach to the effort to secure for its members justice in all things and opportunities for living the best life. We desire for the Negro, as for all men, personal and racial justice in private life and in the courts of the land.
WOMANHOOD.
"Realizing the great increase of mulattoes and knowing full well that no race can rise above its womanhood, we appeal for the protection of the chastity of the Negro woman and declare ourselves for the single standard of morality among this race as well as among our own.
CHILDHOOD.
"Recognizing the right of every American child to be not only well born, but to be given the opportunity for developing his life to its fullest possibility, we desire for the Negro child better homes, better schools and better Christian training. LYNCHING.
"Lynching is the black spot on America's soul. So long as America holds the record for its illegal taking of life, so long as the headlines of foreign papers carry in large letters 'America burns another Negro', just so long will her shame be world-wide. We have no security unless the law protects us. Mob violence knows no law. As women, as mothers of men, we protest. We condemn every violation of law in the taking of life, no matter what the crime.
"We declare ourselves for law and order at all costs. The public has a right to prompt and certain justice and should demand such of officials and courts. We believe that America should not permit ignorance and prejudice to be capitalized. In common with the great and honored Henry W. Grady, of our own Southland, we say, 'Not in passion, my countrymen, but in reason, not in narrowness but in breadth, may we solve this problem in calmness and in truth, and lifting its shadows, let perpetual sunshine pour down on two races walking together in peace and contentment.'"

Bar Association to Hear Advancement Association's Secretary on Anti-Lynch Bill and Ku Klux.
James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, has been invited to appear before the law enforcement committee of the American Bar Association, holding hearings in Chicago on April 10, on the subject of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill and the Ku Klux Klan, it was announced today at Advancement Association headquarters.
Mr. Johnson will urge to the Bar Association's committee to report favorably on the Dyer bill in dealing with the spread of lawlessness in the United States, and also will ask for condemnation of the activities of the Ku Klux Klan.
The chairman of the Bar Association's committee is W. B. Swaney of Chattanooga, Tenn., the other members being ex-Governor Whitman of New York, Wade H. Ellis of Washington, Charles W. Farnham of St. Paul and Judge Marcus Kavanaugh of Chicago.
Before leaving for Chicago, Mr. Johnson said:
"The opportunity to appear before the Bar Association is of the highest importance. That body's interest in the Dyer bill is especially opportune because the question of its constitutionality is the final obstacle to be surmounted before the Senate passes it and it becomes the law of the land."
Egyptians in Sudan Join N. A. A. C. P.
Egyptians in the Sudan have become members of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth avenue, New York, according to announcement today at the national office. News of the fight over the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill in the United States has spread to Egypt and the letter from the Sudan enclosing memberships contains a word of congratulation on the passage by the House of Representatives of the measure.
The letter from Egypt says in part: "You know it is quite easy to rob a man if he is blind; whether physically or intellectually. It is an outstanding fact that the rulers of Africa, without exception, deny my racret his privilege of self seeing, because they feel that some day these people whom God has created free will arise and demand the exit of their oppressors. So they say 'if not in word in deed' keep the Nigger blind; and we'll see to it that no one opens his eyes; not even the Carpenter of Nazareth if He was on earth.
"That's the noxious atmosphere we are inhaling daily, you can judge the present state of our health. We look to you as never before; praying that you will remember as you struggle on for the welfare of the race. Convey, please, our warm congratulations to the wary and indefatigable secretary, 'J. W. J.' (James Weldon Johnson) for his recent achievement (Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill)."

Chicagoans Honor Schumann-Heink
By Nora Douglas Holt.
Chicago, Ill., April 5—DeKoven Thompson, composer, and Pauline James Lee, president and founder of the Chicago University of Music, received in honor of the famous prima donna contralto, Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, Saturday afternoon, March 25, from 3 to 5, in the twenty-one-room mansion at 3672 Michigan boulevard, formerly her home. Both of these young musicians have cause to be grateful to the great contralto for her sincere interest in them.
Some yearr ago, Mr. Thompson, a building composer, arranged a musical setting to a poem, "If I Forget," by Alfred Anderson. During her travels, Mme. Schumann-Heink met Mr. Thompson, then a Pullman porter, and became interested in his musical career. Of his many songs she preferred the one mentioned because of the beautiful sentiment and assured the young man that she would use it on her programs and subsequently make a record of it for the Victor company. It will soon be released.
Concerning this release Miss Alma Sattler has written for Mme. Schumann-Heink the following letter to Thompson:
"Mine. Schumann-Heink has made a record of your song, "If I Forget," and it is splendid. She has just returned from the Victor Talking Machine Company in Camden, where she made new records. Among these, yours stands out as one of the best. I know how happy you will be to hear this. Although the waiting has been long, I am sure you will be well repaid. I too, am happy for you, and can only say, "When Dreams Come True."
Miss Lee founded her school of music in 1920 and at once began a search for a suitable location. Upon application for rental of the Schimann-Heink residence, she was accepted as a lessee by Madame after sufficient investigation by her attorneys, in spite of the protest of the Armours and other exclusive property owners who are said to have offered her $3,000 for the property.
In the receiving line with Madame Schumann-Heink were DeKoven Thompson, Pauline James Lee, Nora Douglas Holt, Major N. Clark Smith, Mrs. Julia Johnson, Madame's attorney., and her son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter.
During the rogram Miss Lee was introduced and in her address assured Madame that the school and the musicians generally were happy to be domiciled in her home, where her voice had reverberated in joyous song and where the colored youth would endeavor to emulate her devotion to the art of music.
Jamaicans Refuse to Fight East Indians
Jamaicans Refuse to Fight East Indians
Kingston, March 31.—The crack Jamaica regiment has been summoned by the British war bureau to sall to India and take up arms against the native population. The regiment has agreed unanimously not to heed the orders of the war office. They have notified the British that their sympathies are with Gandhi and opposed to Anglo-Saxon policy. Darker races throughout the world are praising their action as indication of a swell in the rising tide of color.
RELIGION AND BUSINESS
RELIGION AND BUSINESS
(By William H. Peck, Pastor St. James
A. M. E. Church, St. Louis, Mo.)
THEY are in flesh, blood and bone related. As has been the case with brothers in flesh under all conditions, they have each gone their own way; while there has been no emphatic denial of close relationship upon either's part, yet because of their pronounced individuality, there has been independent action and the taking of paths that led them far from each other in their wanderings. They are absolutely dependent upon each other; this truth has come home to both with peculiar force as a result of their experiences, so forcibly that both have with shame vowed to the other that "never again" would they think of leaving each other; but they are children of weakness and fail to often to keep their word. Religion, the older of the two, has found out that there is no success for her without using business methods. Business, the younger, has found out that disaster awaits her without religious principles governing her activities. In proportion as religion has employed business methods to assist her in her great mission, she has met with unbounded success. We all acknowledge that religion today is an enormous business. We are trying to make her more so; take for instance the attempt upon the part of denominations to combine and do away with wasteful duplication that is to be found everywhere; this we at once recognize as a modern business method; the only reason that a greater degree of success is not obtained is that religion refuses to surrender her entire personality to her younger sister, business; while we are hopeful that her pride will not drive her to continued foolishness, we must admit that there is a great charm in her peculiar independence. Religion has of recent years adopted that wise business method known as "the cost sheet." She no longer blindly rushes into an undertaking without calling on business to see what are the requirements for the undertaking; in other words, she is constantly taking an inventory of available resources before engaging in any great undertaking. Business is knocking at the door of religion, asking her to please give her faith; this hour of industrial depression is caused because business has spurned the companionship of her older sister, religion; business has lost faith largely in God and in man. A case in point: religion has long since cried aloud, "Thou shalt not kill;" business has refused to hear her, and has replied, "Your words are dreamy and impractical;" but now business- stands shackled before the court of world opinion and sees the poor folly in employing millions in armaments to destroy and not to build; business is now trying hard to get from her older sister, religion, enough of faith, to "heat her swords into plow-shares and her spears into pruning-hooks, so that a nation shall not lift a sword against nation, and that they study war no more." It is like her to say (if she succeeds) that it was a business triumph, but we know that she will never succeed unless her older sister, religion, lends her a great degree of faith. Business is finding out that there is no success for her unless there is more employment of religion's brotherly love in the conduct of her enterprises; the rising tide of restlessness that too frequently expresses itself in the wasteful and destructive method of industrial revolution, is something that business can only avoid by adopting from the home of religion the child of brotherly love. The advance of socialism gives ample proof of this contention; what is therefore our conclusion? only that peace and progress can come to this sorely-tried

world by Religion and Business entering into a closer relationship, and faithfully keeping a mutual contract with each other; for this an affected human world, sorely needs and patiently awaits—Constructor, March, 1922.
Bert Williams' Widow to Get Royalties
New York, March 31.—Mrs. Charlotte Williams, widow of the late Bert Williams, will receive about $28,000 in royalties from songs composed and sung by her husband during his long stage career, was announced by Henry Herzbrun, lawyer, who filled Williams' will in the Surrogate Court the other day.

Attorney Herzbrun explained that Williams during his lifetime deeded the house in which they lived to his wife, who still owns it. The will directs that the widow shall inherit all of his estate after the payment of funeral expenses and any debts he may have.
Williams died March 4 last. The will is dated the same day. Instead of his signature a cross is signed. Williams having been to ill to write his name. It was witnessed by Attorney Herzbrun and John E. Neal, a friend of the comedian.
N. A. A. C. P. Gets Indorsement of Dyer Bill From Michigan Senator.
N. A. A. C. P. Gets Indorsement of Dyer Bill From Michigan Senator.
Following the entrance of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People into Michigan's senatorial contest, opposing Representative Patrick H. Kelley, who had voted against the Dyer bill, it was announced today that Senator Townsend, his opponent, had explicitly come out in favor of the Dyer bill and had promised to give it his support in the Senate if elected.
Senator Townsend announced his stand in a letter to Oscar W. Baker, who has been chosen as chairman of the colored division in Michigan, to support Senator Townsend's candidacy. The letter is as follows:
Mr. Oscar W. Baker,
Shenrer Bros. Bldg..
Bay City, Michigan.
Dear Mr. Baker:
I have your courteous favor of March 29 this mail stating that you had selected as chairman of the colored division in Michigan for the purpose of favoring my candidacy for renomination to the Senate, and you call my attention to the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
I cannot imagine that any intelligent civilized being could even indirectly favor lynching. It is exaggerated murder, and one of the worst enemies of law and order known to civilization. The growing practice of lynching calls for every effort of organized society to check it. There is work for the countries, states and nation in this behalf, and any practical constitutional method which is brought before the Senate having for its object the suppression of lynching will have my support. The Dyer Anti-Lynching bill is, in my judgment, constitutional, and I shall gladly avail myself of the opportunity to do everything I can to bring it before the Senate for consideration and to secure a vote upon it.
Respectfully yours,
CHARLES E. TOWNSEND.
THE meaning of Easter and its message of joy, the revival of hope and the buoyant renewal of our aspiration come to an old and tired world this morning and pervade our lives even as the springtide floods and fills the meadows with her everlasting miracle.
BY AN irresistible human impulse, we seek out our finest and most fashionable raiment, and that impulse is parallel to the natural processes in the world about us. If the earth can put off her drab habiliments of winter and forget the somber, sunless hours, so can the children of earth. In every life today there may be a resurrection from the dead. In every life old things may be discarded. He has not caught the spirit of the festal celebration who is not stirred to a renewal and is not moved to forsake the darkness and give welcome to the light.
IT IS more than a church festival. Believer and unbeliever together share the influences of the day. In each of us, whatever creed we formally profess, there dwells the feeling that the day betokens. It is the assurance that life is worth the living and that love can never lose its own. We stand today not at the brink of a tomb but on the threshold of this eternal life and of this love immortal.
Easter Here and Abroad
Daybreak, Bethlehem. Not in Judea but in Pennsylvania. Church and cemetery outside thronged with people, many of them there since the night before, all of them watching, waiting, for the sudden glad burst of music from the marching choristers who will come to herald in the sunrise announcing that "Christ is Risen!"
For two days these Moravians have kept celebration. On Friday at 10:30 they gathered for the beginning of services which progressed in dramatic intensity through the events of Black Friday, till at 3 o'clock, the hour of the crucifixion, he knelt to the tolling bell and the dirge-like chant, "Christ is Dead." Later at vespers the Vigil of the Paschal Lamb was observed, and the Saturday services were culminated by a Love Feast during which buns and coffee were served by black-robed priests and the night watch began, the end of which was to usher in the glad tidings which they now acclaim, "Christ is Risen."
Universal Celebration.
At the same hour, in every civilized country in the world, some version of the great religious drama of the ages is being enacted with solemn musc, lighted candles, the odor of illles and prayer. That is why it is almost a shock at first to realize that the Easter celebration did not originate with the crucifixion of Christ, but antedates his birth by many centuries. Its origin is lost in the dim distance of remote antiquity and its name even is that of Eastre, Ostare, the Anglo-Saxon goddess of Spring to whom the fourth month was dedicated and called "Easter month." According to Canon Venable of the Church of England, the keeping of Easter was made a church custom only after popular usage
SUFFER LITTLE CHILDREN
JESUS CARES FOR THE CHILDREN
For these had loved the Lord Christ's face
And on His knees had laughed and cried
And heard Him say the heavenly place
Is where all childlike souls abide.
For these had loved the Lord Christ's face

had sanctioned and dignified it. The commemoration of the passion of Christ was later identified with it, as was the Jewish Feast of the Passover. The Persians at the same season observe their "Renewal of the Year" when the "Sun of Justice, the Savior of the World over Death is resurrected." It was also the first month of the year with the Druids, and the world-wide custom of Easter fires dates back to the primitive worship of the seasons, as does much of the world-wide "watching for the Easter Sunrise, when the golden orb leaps three times in joy," as even the canny Scots who watch its reflection in a basin of water, will ever that it does.
Easter Sunday in Russia.
But the universal significance of the vicarious sacrifices and the emerging through a season of abnegation, into new being, deepens rather than takes from the religious holiday, which is never so devoutly kept as in Russia. Along deserted thoroughfares of little villages, or shoulder to shoulder with the throngs surging through city streets, in somber darkness go old and young, high and low at midnight on Easter. "Yea, Christ is risen," their challenge comes ringing back through empty space or rippling in a hundred echoes from the thick-packed masses of devotees. On Good Friday they have all followed the black coffin through the streets to the mournful music of the military bands and heralded by a crepe-draped crucifix. Now they press on, enter the church which is dark as the outside—darker. They kneel, huddle together, they wait. Presently down the center aisle a lighted lantern borne aloft on a pole comes, followed by the crucifix and white clad priests, peering right and left through the darkness. They are the "Procession of Searchers for the Body." They reach the altar; they, too kneel. They wait.
"Then comes the sound of shuffling feet nearer and nearer," an eye witness described it. "Suddenly the doors are pounded from without rapidly and incessantly—a profane sound that startles the stillness into awakening life. The kneeling figures at the altar listen, rise and hurry down the aisle. The doors are flung open and a long procession enters, each bearing a lighted candle—followed by the choir chanting the glad news. From the tapers as the priests pass, people nearest in the heaving crowd light their candles. Flame is passed up and down from hand to hand. A trail of fire flowers springs forth from the dusks as though by magic until the gloom lightens to a rosy glow, the glow to a sudden blaze of brilliance that gleams on the jewel burdened ikons—on a sea of faces."
Bells Ring in Easter.
In Moscow the bells of the Kremlin ring forth suddenly at midnight in unearthly sweetness, the tower is illuminated from base to cross at the top, throwing a radiant light around the masses of kneeling humanity waiting there, and on the mountainous piles of cakes, each with a candle stuck into it waiting to be blessed.
In Rome, too, the day is ushered in by the firing of cannons from the Castle of St. Angelo, and ever-swelling crowds, in carrages, afoot, surge on toward the magnificent basilica of St. Peter's. Formerly the pope officiated, borne into the church on the Sedia Gestatoria, his vestments ablaze in glory, a canopy of crimson and gold above his head, and along beside him borne the flabella, or large fans composed of rich peacock feathers—the eyes of which symbolize the eyes of
the church, while followed him a rich pageant including the unrivaled papal choir, singing as they came.
St. Peter's illuminated.
The services are still resplendent, and at their end civic festivities follow and continue all during the day until as dusk comes on suddenly—a miracle! St. Peter's is suddenly aglow, agleam, a dream of beauty with a million points of light outlining all the exquisite delicate traceries of the wondrous architecture. And even while one still looks and marvels at the star-clear silvery light, the sound of cannons booms through the evening and as suddenly as the silvery lights appeared they change to a fantastic, fairy-like illumination visible in all its beauty at the furthest end of the city. Close enough, dark shadows are apparent moving along the sides of the walls, gliding back and forth, against the bulk of the building, for every point of light is a little lamp; their keepers are entrusted with an almost sacred charge in keeping them burning and in lighting the resinous powder expertly disposed along all the lines and traceries of the basilica suddenly to burst into flame and to envelop dome and all in a burst of fire.
Lily of the Scriptures.
If Jesus never saw an Easter lily, what was the flower to which He referred? Some had thought that it must have been the lily of the valley; but it does not grow in fields. Much more likely does it seem that He meant the calla lily, which was cultivated on a large scale in Egypt (and probably in Palestine) thousands of years ago.
The Egyptians grew the calla as a foodplant. It develops, underground, fleshy tubers that somewhat resemble potatoes, though more elongated in shape. With preliminary boiling, they may be cooked for the table by frying, baking, or in any other way that potatoes are cooked.
The Joyous Eastertide.
Easter Sunday, which marks for the faithful the fulfillment of divine promise; the recognition of which means faith in the resurrection of Him who was crucified nearly two thousand years ago, and wherever there are Christians joy prevails. The Eastertide is probably more noticed in religious circles than Christmas, although each day is of equal importance to Christian doctrine; the inception of the divine plan for the redemption of the world would seem to deserve as great a recognition as the consummation, and yet the Christian world makes greater the day of the concluding miracle, and Easter is a day of rejoicing, a season for exultation and praise and thanksgiving.
T
Awake new Hope at Eastertide!
Carol ye birds! Fresh flowers spring!
Let child-hosannas swell the praise—
Life's "Eventide" its anthems raise.
Hope's promise looks to endless days;—
At Eastertide awake and sing.
GROWING LILIES FROM SEEDS
Federal Department of Agriculture Tells of Results of Experiments It Has Been Making.
In growing Easter lilies from seeds the time of planting depends upon how the florist intends to handle his stocks and possibly upon which his seed becomes available, says the Bureau of Plant Industry, United State Department of Agriculture, in discussing the results of experiments with growing the flowers from seed instead of from bulbs. Sowing they say, can be done
THE LILY
Type of Perfect Lily.
At any season if suitable moisture conditions for germination are maintained. In northern climates, if seed is planted out of doors, it should be sown in the autumn for spring germination.
Until the trade produces seed of the lily and offers it for sale, it is pointed out, it will be necessary for the grower to raise his own seed. The best way to do this now is to procure imported bulbs either in the early winter, when they are generally offered for sale, or at Easter time, when most of the plants are in blossom, and grow seed for planting the following January.
EASTER MORNING
INTERNATIONAL
Just an early investigation. Evidently the Easter rabbit had been "on the job" early, greatly to the satis faction of this small boy.
Mexico's Holy Week.
Mexico has her holy week, celebrated with pomp and splendor, sad devotions and ood customs that still linger in the land of Montezuma. The people go from all points of the compass far and near, on their annual pilgrimage to Gundalupe, the holiest shrine of all Mexico, where they congregate in immense crowds. There the descendants of a nation sunk in paganism for centuries after the Crucifixion meet to celebrate the divine tragedy that was enacted in Syria 1900 years ago.
The most solemn week of all the weeks of the year is Passion week in Mexico City. Images, icons and crucifixes are to be found everywhere. The most remarkable of the ceremonies is the blowing up of Judas. The betrayer is represented as a misshapen monster. Hundreds of his images are sold on Good Friday. They are filled with explosives which blow the doomed figures to atoms when let off on Saturday morning.
Spiritual Influences of Calvary
Let the world on this Easter, with all its materialism and all its bloodstains, be compared with the world of the first Easter, and it must be recognized that from Calvary radiated spiritual influences whose very incomplete results so far encourage the most splendid visions of what humanity will become.

GOOD BUSINESS.
T. W. Bean of the Bean Auto Livery reports business is good. He has another Cole Aero Eight enclosed car. The demand for closed cars has been so great that this is the second one of those fine limousines that he has put in service in the last few weeks. They are heated and right up to date. The new location, 2014 Curtis street, is one of the best equipped taxicab stands in the city. There is a warm garage to keep the cars in out of the cold, a large wash rack to keep them in a clean, sanitary condition; also a repair shop, where the cars are kept in first-class running order. The wash rack and repair shop are open to the public at reasonable prices. Their rates and cars are the best.
These heated, enclosed cars will be at your service at the same cost or at a cheaper rate than the cars that are kept standing out in the cold, dirty streets. Call the same old number or the popular new number, which is the smallest out-Champa 2.

A Nut Like Daddy
The little daughter had endured evening after evening her daddy's occupation of writing and his monosyllable replies to remarks from members of the family. Finally, when she was asked what she intended to do when she grew up, the little daughter said: "Oh, write papers and be a nut like daddy."

hope to those who believe in mind."
In divine some years ago insofar as a people converted to Christian god, with no hope of rejection the resurrection of the dead world, in celebrating an season of the Church, became the Man, Christ Jesus, which gives them to be strong advocate and the all-powerful, magnifier to it by the unmistakable Christians should be extended a banner that may offer an incentive to become disciples long-doer in returning to the life to the helpless and bereaved Easter morn, the beautiful from many hearts, and the real loud in praises to the Me that assured us of the resurrection Eastertide, joining our fellowship in Happy Easter, and the joyous throng, delightful meaning and blessings of Joyous Easter is the wish of
"Rejoice! For there is hope to those who believe in the resurrection of the Savior of mankind."
THUS spoke a great divine some years ago in the performance of his missionary duties to a people converted to Christianity, whom he found worshipping a pagan god, with no hope of redemption for fallen humanity, or any idea of the resurrection of the dead. The great body of Christians throughout the world, in celebrating and commemorating this wonderful event and season of the Church, become stronger in their belief of the Resurrection of the Man, Christ Jesus, which strengthens them in their convictions and encourages them to be strong advocates of this, the greatest religion of the centuries, and the all-powerful, magnetic agent that is drawing struggling humanity closer to it by the unmistakable truth as propounded by its teachings.
Rejoicings among Christians should be extended to those outside the fold of Christianity, in a manner that may offer an invitation to learn of its principles, as also an incentive to become disciples of a Teacher who never hesitated to help the wrong-doer in returning to the path of right, rescue the perishing and offer solace to the helpless and bereaved. With the pealing of the bells on the great Easter morn, the beautiful tones of the chimes, the shouts of hallelujah from many hearts, and the rendition of the choirs of the various churches, all loud in praises to the Mediator between God and man, whose resurrection assured us of the resurrection of all humanity, we enter into the spirit of Eastertide, joining our fellowmen throughout Christendom with the wish for a Happy Easter, and the gladdness for being permitted to move on with the joyous throng, delightful of the fact that we glory in the real spiritual meaning and blessings of Eastertide.
A very happy and joyous Easter is the wish of the Colorado Statesman to all the people.
RETURN TO NORMALCY.
WHEN we stop to consider the price of the world; the numerous traps down upon our own government, dividuals otherwise, we cannot help in return to NORMAL CONDITIONS.
This, one of the most trying perils without a precedent, as general condemnation often present some problem, race, a people or a nation. Because we come with greater impression, especially impossible to escape, we are always in rest, whether city, state or national, restore us to peaceful enjoyment of advantageous to our great Commonweal and then another as to this return to in specially referring to the reduction as human nature (according to their anatomy of a step downward or backward). By an all-round standpoint and reason we gather information relative to fair percentage would be willing to as an amicable spirit that would tend to and if this is to be accepted, we quest of "strikers and their strikes," when is being accomplished is a suspension paratively short time, and a minor deed of the act are sufferers in part.
Our contention, therefore, forces a "Make hay while the sun shines," as share alike its joys and sorrows, it ought then to come to its rescue, doin the present opportunity to be restore the best and most for such a great every reason to hope that the vision of the people; and being filled with the their government, and that their success tribution to the nation's welfare; they that will bring permanent blessings civilization, thereby winning the prize "Righteousness exalteth a nation."
WHEN IN YOUR BUSINESS CAREER WILL YOU NEED SELF-CONTROL?

Most trying periods of our own general conditions after waking some problems which almost on. Because we are conscious depression, especially when so are always ready to join life or national, in expending enjoyment of life, liberty at Commonwealth.

WHEN we stop to consider the present unrest among the various nations of the world; the numerous troublesome incidents that seem to bear down upon our own government, by organizations and groups of individuals otherwise, we cannot help from continuing our plea for a speedy return to NORMAL CONDITIONS.
This, one of the most trying periods of our nation's existence, is not without a precedent, as general conditions after war, famine or any other calamity often present some problems which almost sap the vitality of a race, a people or a nation. Because we are conscious of these things which come with greater impression, especially when so near us as to make it impossible to escape, we are always ready to join heartily with our government, whether city, state or national, in expediting any program that will restore us to peaceful enjoyment of life, liberty and economic conditions advantageous to our great Commonwealth. Expressions are heard from one and then another as to this return to normalcy being impractical, and this in specially referring to the reduction of wages from its present standard, as human nature (according to their argument) seems to revolt at the thought of a step downward or backward. But let us view the whole matter from an all-round standpoint and reason with a fairness acceptable to all.
In gathering information relative to organized labor, we discover that a fair percentage would be willing to assist in a readjustment, guided by such an amicable spirit that would tend to a result beneficial to all the people, and if this is to be accepted, we question the wisdom, especially at this time, of "strikers and their strikes," when it is apparent that the only thing that is being accomplished is a suspension of the wheels of progress for a comparatively short time, and a minor degree of suffering in which the players of the act are sufferers in part.
Our contention, therefore, forces a reminder of the well-known expression, "Make hay while the sun shines," as being citizens of this country we must share alike its joys and sorrows, its advantages and disadvantages. We ought then to come to its rescue, doing ourselves the proud honor of seizing the present opportunity to be restored to a condition normal that will do the best and most for such a great people and a mighty nation. There is every reason to hope that the vision of the optimist will be reflected by all the people; and being filled with the realization of this being their country, their government, and that their success depends absolutely upon their contribution to the nation's welfare; they will endeavor to engage in those things that will bring permanent blessings to them, reaching that high plane of civilization, thereby winning the prize attendant with the good old teaching—"Righteousness exalteth a nation."

NAPOLEON HILL'S ADVICE will interest OFFICE BOY or PRESIDENT and doubtless TURN many a would-be FOOL into a GENIUS.
Whether you are day laborer or corporation president, office boy or superintendent of the works, you are sure to come to the point, sooner or later, at which things will not go to suit you and you will be an unusual person if the first thing you think of is not to quit your job! This is the very place where you will need self-control! Just remember that any fool can quit, but the person who sticks and makes a success of his job, overcoming every obstacle to do so, is a genius! There are unpleasant occurrences in every job; there are obstacles to overcome by all who would rise above the work

which a person can do with his hands, without the use of his head; and the extent to which a person meets these conditions philosophically, with a smile instead of a frown, will mark that person's degree of success. If you can control yourself when you feel like saying "I will quit," you will soon control the conditions which made you want to quit.—Napoleon Hill.
SELF-CONTROL is one of the most WONDERFUL QUALITIES in the world, for WITHOUT IT you CANNOT MAKE a SUCCESS in life.
APPLIED PSYCHOLOGY teaches that you should SET your GOAL in your MIND'S EYE, bring yourself under SELF-CONTROL and head straight for that goal, letting NO OUTSIDE CIRCUMSTANCE deter you from REALIZING your GOAL, which should be a MERITORIOUS one. Constructor.

Boy Drowned as Joke.
Detroit, Mich.-Ed Sroka, 17, is held at the county jail, while deputy sheriffs drag Connors creek for the body of 11-year-old Leon Dargan, which, the confession of his six playmates indicates, will be found beneath the swollen creek waters. Sheriff Coffin arrested Sroka, who is alleged to have suggested throwing Leon into the creek as a joke and to have forced the others to carry out the suggestion.
Semenoff Unable to Give Bond.
New York.-Gen. Gregorie Semenoff, ataman of the Cossacks, was locked up in Ludlow street jail after frantic efforts were made by several lawyers to get a bondsman who would give $25,000 bail to Sheriff Nagle. Semenoff was recently arrested on a civil warrant and freed on bail, but his original bondsman refused to continue as security.
Denounces Railway Transfer.
Washington.—During reargument of the Southern Pacific case, the last of the railroad dissolution suits in the Supreme Court, Solicitor General Beck declared that the transaction constituted one of the darkest pages in American railroad history. Referring to them as "the big four," the solicitor general declared that they had received government aid for the construction of the Central Pacific to such an extent that it cost them no financial outlay on their own part to construct the system.
To Press Claim on Lincoln Motors.
Washington.—The government will "proceed in an orderly way to file and press the payment of" the claim of the War Department against the Lincoln Motors Company of Detroit for approximately $9,118,000 on aviation contracts, Attorney General Daugherty announced here after a meeting with private creditors of the defunct concern, whose claims also amount to approximately $9,000,000.
Fire Sweeps Norfolk Suburb.
Norfolk, Va.—Berkley, a suburb of Norfolk, was swept by fire recently, which destroyed more than 100 houses, covering an area one mile in length and averaging from two to four blocks in width. Five hundred families are estimated to have been made homeless and the damage will run to nearly $1,000,000. The blaze originated in the Tunis lumber mills on the southern branch of the Elizabeth river and three steamers in the river were burned, catching from sparks.

A congregation of negroes was used to hearing sermons that harped continually on hell and eternal punishment. One hot summer day the preacher made no mention of hell. One of the congregation asked him why he had omitted it. "Everything in season," he replied. "De thahmometah wuz at ninety-foh while I wuz a-preachin' dat sthmon. Hell spoke foh itself, I reckon."

The Light That Didn't Fail.
From out of Maryville comes the story of a light that didn't fall. The Tribune reports that when a large negro was taken before a judge charged with the crime of carrying a half-brick concealed about his person, he got off scotfree when he explained that he merely wore it to light his matches on when he wanted to smoke.—Missouri Notes, Kansas City Times.

She has a host of friends here who wish her every happiness in her married life. Mr. Cole comes from one of the most distinguished and high standing families in California and is a brother of Madame Florence Cole Talbot, the celebrated singer.

SUNDAY, APRIL 23, WILL MARK
OPENING OF BIG N. A. A. C. P.
MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN.
With plans more complete in every detail than ever before in its history, the Denver Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will launch a membership campaign on Sunday, April 23 that bids fair to be a record breaker. The accomplishments of the national body as well as the local during the past year has fully aroused the Negro to the possibilities of organized effort. The greatest achievement of the National Association was in pushing the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill through the House of Representatives and on to the United States Senate, where it stands better than an even chance of becoming a law before the present session of Congress closes. The big feature of the Denver and Colorado Springs Branches activities was in preventing the Ku Klux Klan from becoming an incorporated body in Colorado. The Chicago Defender in commenting upon the opinion rendered by Attorney General Keyes and the stubborn front put up by the local branches, characterizes it as the most crushing rebuke that has been dealt the klan north of Mason and Dixon's line. The 1922 membership campaign will be opened by special sermons and appropriate N. A. A. C. P. services in every Negro church in Denver. Campaign headquarters will be established at 2638 Welton street in the office of Attorney S. E. Cary and get-together meetings will be held there every night during the week except on Wednesday night, when Bishop Chas, L. Mead will deliver at Shorter Church his famous lecture on "Frederick Douglass, the Black Knight of the Nineteenth Century." This should be one of the greatest meetings ever held by our group in Denver. The slogan adopted by the association this year is, "Every Negro citizen a member."
HELP A WORTHY CAUSE.
THE Negro Women's Club Association greatly appreciates any donation made to the Home. We wish to thank Mrs. Amanda Reed of 2611 Marion street, who so kindly donated several glasses of jelly to the Home on April 3rd. We will be glad to receive any donation at any time, either in food, money or otherwise. We need a child's crib in the nursery. If there is any one who has a crib that they do not want and would like to give it to the Day Nursery, kindly let us know and we will send for it.
We do not wish to beconsidered begars, but the Negro Women's Club Home is a Negro Charity institution, founded by a few of our women for the benefit of our young women and girls and to care for babies of our race while their mothers are at work. We are striving and putting forth our best efforts to make the Home a credit to our race in Denver and Colorado, but we, the few, cannot do it alone. We must have help from others of our race who can and will help. There are seven clubs which belong to the Negro Women's Club Association. Each club is expected to raise eight dollars per months for the upkeep of the Home. This amount is raised by subscriptions from friends. These subscriptions are divided into memberships as follows: Life membership, $25; sustaining membership, $1 per month, or $12 per
Blest they who seek,
While in their youth,
With spirit meek,
The way of truth;
To them the sacred Scripture now display
Christ as the only true and living way.
His precious blood on Calvary was given
To make them heirs of endless bliss in heaven
And e'en on earth the Child of God can trace
The glorious blessings of his Savior's grace.
For them He bore
His Father's frown;
For them He wore
The thorny Crown;
Nailed to the Cross,
Endured its pain,
That His life's loss
Might be their gain.
Then haste to choose
That better part
Nor dare refuse
The Lord thy heart,
Lest He declare
"I know you not."
And deep despair
Should be your lot.
For them He bore
His Father's frown;
For them He wore
The thorny Crown;
Nailed to the Cross,
Endured its pain,
That His life's loss
Might be their gain.
Then haste to choose
That better part
Nor dare refuse
The Lord thy heart,
Lest He declare
"I know you not."
And deep despair
Should be your lot.
Now look to Jesus, who on Calvary died,
And trust on Him alone who there was crucified.

C. M. E. CHURCH NOTES.
Reverend C. E. Chapman, Minister.
Services now being held in the auditorium of the Y. M. C. A. building, 2800 Glenarm Place, every Sunday.
Last Sunday morning's service was well attended. The Reverend C. E. Chapman, minister in charge, preached to a very appreciative audience. His subject was "Present Day Tendencies of Men and of Institutions." He used as a text Jeremiah 10:3, "And they, not me, saith the Lord." Rev. Chapman gave a portrayal of the incidents, conditions and environments leading up to the prophet's utterance of these words. He said, "Israel of today, as Israel of Jeremiah's day, from all indications has forgotten the Lord, and there is need that some one would sound the warning lest Israel be lost. The world seems mad, is steeped and diseased with sin in a thousand various forms. The thing needed today is a getting back to God, to the old land-mark, to reverence, love, honor and serve God in truth and in deed." The discourse was well received by all who were present. There were two accessions at the morning hour.
Next Sunday's program calls for Sunday school at 9:45 a. m. Special Easter sermon at 11 a. m. by Rev. C. E. Chapman, subject, "The Risen Lord." Praise and preaching at 7:45 p. m. The evening subject will be, "The Upper Room." The minister and members extend a cordial welcome to all church lovers.
THE ZION BAPTIST CHURCH.
Twenty-fourth Avenue and Ogden; David E. Over, Minister.
A goodly attendance of worshipers attended on the pastor's morning sermon which was given from the subject, "The Transforming Ministry of The Word." The message was apparently greatly enjoyed and evidently brought conviction to its hearers.
The Sunday School is making last preparations for the Easter program to be rendered at the school hour Sunday morning. A delightful presentation by the children is expected. The pastor will preach from the subject, "Our Easter Hope." The choir will render special music.
The Young Women's Friendly Club is expecting an unusually interesting meeting next Tuesday night when a specially invited speaker will deliver an address to young women. Every member of the club is expected to attend and visiting young women will be welcomed.
The Men's Bible Class is getting down to the spring program. Brother Otto Briggs has been chosen president and the expectation is that the men are preparing to do fine work. The meetings are held every Tuesday night at 8 o'clock and every man is welcome.
The Women's Bible Class meets on Thursday afternoon at 2:30. Mrs. Arbuckle, the president, is working faithfully to increase attendance and membership. A liberal Bible education may be received by anyone faithfully attending these classes.
Do not forget that Easter Sunday evening at 7 o'clock the B. Y. P. U. will run the sixth Bible reel of motion picture, "The Story of Isaac," which will prove as intensely interesting as those preceding it.

ery one seemed to have a good time. On April 3 the debating team from Lawrence, Kan., met with the debaters at Colorado University. One of the three was of our race, Mr. George Hamilton. They all were experienced speakers and this is the first debate the varsity has lost in two years. Mr. Hamilton deserves worthy mention as Lawrence, Kan., has a good team to win by a decision of 2 to 1. And a "Negro was in it."
At Allen Chapel Sunday, Rev, Carter filled the pulpit at both services. At night he spoke from the 8th verse of the 38th chapter of Luke. His subject was, "Giving." Giving is a grace not to be despised. "Give and it shall be given." It is not always what we give but the way we give that pleases God. Give freely so that your bosom be filled with praise because of obedience. At the Baptist Church Sunday night was song service night.

Hostility Toward Japs Cause of Theft
Hostility Toward Japs Cause of Theft
Full details are published in the Wednesday papers of a $90,000 bank theft. The principals are Wm. H. McFee, for twenty-five years a trusted employe of the Farmers and Merchants Bank; Ray Whitehill, his confederate, and the Los Angeles branch of the Yokohama Species Bank. Officials from the Japanese bank deposited $90,000 in $1,000 bills in a safety vault at the Farmers and Merchants Bank. McFee does not like Japanese, he says, and often expressed his hatred for them. Whitehill, an ex-soldier, made a wax impression of the vault key, and McFee took the $90,000—gave Whitehill $400 and spent a large part of the balance on diamonds, autos, silks, lots, etc., for lady friends and acquaintances. McFee had $20,000 in a tool chest behind his house. Nearly all the money or things purchased with it has been recovered. McFee still dislikes the Japanese.—Western Dispatch, Los Angeles.

Why Should He Be Surprised?
Why Should He Be Surprised?
Culture will crop out. A Boston golf player writes to the Outlook telling how his caddie gave him a bit of a surprise. The golfer had played his ball into the rough, and they had about given it up for lost, when suddenly the youngster's eye lit upon it. Did he holler, ungrammatically: "I got it, mister"? Not this lad. Raising the ball aloft, he exclaimed triumphantly: "Mirabile dictu"—it's found!"—Boston Transcript.

Anything but lovely at first unmagnified glance, this humble flower proves fascinating when seen through a lens. Instead of resembling a cushion stuck full of red-headed pins and decked with knots of ribbon, the microscope view makes one think of an elaborate pagoda ornamented with filigree work, carving and exquisite bits of sculpture, the whole structure expressed in miniature floral form.

The hot lunch, served at school, particularly the cup of hot cocoa, milk or soup, has long been a project fostered by home-demonstration agents of the United States Department of Agriculture and the state agricultural colleges. A more delicate matter is the improvement of the lunches which the children bring to school. The principal of the Anderson grammar school, in Shasta county, California, observed that many of her children brought their lunches wrapped in newspaper. She asked the home-demonstration agent to show the pupils how to put up a basket lunch and, incidentally, what to put in it.
Different Lunches.
The school was divided into two groups, and a demonstration given before each group in one of the class-
DELICIOUS RHUBARB PIE IN ALL SEASONS
Home Canning Has Made This Condition a Possibility.
Canned Product Makes Very Welcome
Addition to More Expensive Fruits
Which Come Later—Direc-
tions for Canning.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
With its tender, flaky crust and its
filling that is at once acid and sweet
to many, no pie excels the rhubarb.
The only regret of its lovers is that,
like many other good things, its season
is too short. Since the advent of
home canning this has been changed,
and rhubarb pie nearly, if not altogether
as good as that made from the fresh stalks, can now be had all the year round.
In addition to its use for pies, pudding and sauce, canned rhubarb makes a very welcome addition to the more expensive fruits which come later. Many of these, like strawberries and raspberries, with their very mild flavor, are improved by the acid tang of rhubarb. Some of the conserves also call for its use.
To can rhubarb successfully, the United States Department of Agriculture gives the following directions:
Select young, tender rhubarb and cut into either two-inch pieces or into lengths to fit the jar when placed vertically. Pack in freshly boiled jars in vertical rows. Cover with boiling water, use boiled rubbers and caps, and seal at once. Process jars in a hot-water bath for 30 minutes. If a steam-pressure canner is used, process from 10 to 15 minutes under five pounds pressure. Seal glass jars and remove from the canner. Invert while they are cooling and watch carefully for leaks. When cool, store in a dark, dry, cool place.
As rhubarb contains much water, a more economical product may be secured by canning rhubarb sauce. Cut the rhubarb into inch lengths and steam until tender. For each quart of sauce add one-half cupful of sugar. Pack hot in a scalded jar and process 20 minutes in water bath and ten minutes in steam-pressure cooker under five-pounds pressure.
---
Seal the jars and remove from the canner, invert while they are cooling and watch carefully for leaks. When cool, store in a dark, dry, cool place.
Floor Coverings.
A floor should never directly reflect objects standing on it, for in doing so the whole effect is weakened. Use materials in the treatment of the wood that will bring out its natural qualities.
Cleaning Mirrors.
Mirrors are satisfactorily cleaned by using a paste of whiting and water or whiting mixed with a few drops of wood alcohol. Wipe off the paste and polish with a soft cloth.
Taking Out Grease.
Saturate a grease spot with turpentine, then place a piece of blotting paper under it and another over it. Press hard together and leave a while with a heavy weight on it.
Raisins.
The simplest way to stone rails without a stoner is to let them stand for two minutes in boiling water, drain them and then pinch the stones out from the stem end.
rooms. Different styles of lunch boxes were exhibited. During the demonstration a box was packed with sandwiches wrapped in waxed paper. A discussion of foods suitable for the school lunch proved particularly interesting to the older children, more than half of whom prepared their own lunches before leaving home.
Appearances Improve.
Since the demonstration a large number of children are bringing milk to school in bottles and there is a marked improvement in the appearance and the contents of the lunch boxes. When air-tight tin boxes are used, such as the tobacco tin, which is a popular type of box in this particular school, the children are taught to clean them thoroughly, enamel them white, possibly decorating them in their art lessons, and to punch air holes in the bottoms of the boxes.
HOT MUFFINS FOR BREAKFAST
Somewhat Arduous Task Made Comparatively Easy by Preparing Ingredients Ahead.
There are housewives who would like to have muffins every morning for breakfast, but feel that it is too arduous a task. If they will try this method of taking time by the forelock, they need not dread the morning hurry. All work seems lighter if done in the waiting bits while supper is cooking, and every night grease the tins and stand them on the back of the range. Into a large bowl place the flour, cornmeal or rye meal or graham flour, the necessary salt, sugar and baking powder. It is but a minute's task to beat one or two eggs, according to the recipe, adding necessary milk and beating into the dry materials. The muffin tins are ready by simply heating, and the family enjoy hot muffins with their coffee and marmalade.
ARRANGE FRUIT IN GELATIN
When Dissolved and Hardened Various Delicacies Can Be Placed in Fanciful Shapes.
When gelatin has been dissolved and become cold, fruit and nutmeats can be placed in it in layers or rows, or arranged in fanciful shapes. Pour a little of the gelatin in the mold, set in a cold place, and when hardened arrange on it the fresh or canned fruit, or the nutmeats chosen for the dessert. Add just enough cold gelatin to hold the fruit in place and let it harden. Then pour on the rest of the gelatin, or add more layers of fruit in the same manner as the first one.
GLYCERINE USED IN COOKING
Small Amount Will Take Place of Sugar Usually Employed in Baking Cakes.
A teaspoonful of glycerin used in cooking will take the place of perhaps half the sugar usually employed, in cakes, for instance. For jam, if a teaspoonful is used to every pound of fruit, only half the quantity of sugar is needed. It makes no difference to the flavor and helps to preserve it.

The Kitchen Cabinet
What seems to grow fairer to me as life goes by is the love and grace and tenderness of it; not its wit, and cleverness, and grandeur of knowledge—grand as knowledge is—but just the laughter of little children, and the joy of their talk by the fireside and the sight of flowers and the sound of music.-J. R. Green.
SPRING GREENS COST NOTHING
Weeds which cost nothing but the gathering may be found in all sections of our country. Many of them have higher value as food than the cultivated vegetables which we prize.
```markdown
```
Mustard, the farmer's pest, is
one of the most wholesome and common of our weeds. Mixed with lettuce, for a green salad it is tasty and cooked with pork as greens it cannot be equaled for a blood purifier.
Take the tender green leaves, wast and drain as one does lettuce and serve with chopped onion and a salad dressing. It makes a most appetizing salad.
Yellow dock, another pestiferous weed, makes delicious eating as greens, and, of course, we all know dandelion which is found in plenty in almost all parts of our country.
Blanched leaves of the tender dandelion cut up with tender green onions and dressed with salad dressing are especially good; then cooked as greens they make another satisfying dish.
Milkweed is a very delicious green which can be used from the middle of May all through the summer, but it is best in early summer. The young leaves are boiled as greens and served with hard-cooked eggs sliced and a butter sauce. The stems may be cooked and served as one does asparagus. Plantain leaves, using the tender inside leaves, may be used as is lettuce. Purslane, commonly called pusley, is another weed full of good mineral salts. Wash and boil it in as little water as possible, just as spinach is cooked, and serve it in the same manner.
Watercress is the most delightful of all greens, nice eaten dipped in salt and used as a garnish for lamb chops. Serve as a salad with lettuce or alone with French dressing. Always be sure it is gathered from a clean spring, for contagious germs may be found on greens grown in impure water.
"We cannot always choose our road in life, but we can choose whether we walk along the shady or sunny side, of life."
WHAT SHALL WE HAVE TO EAT?
A good vegetable chowder which is both tasty and nourishing is:
Corn Chowder.—Take two cupfuls of finely canned corn), a cupful of possible (good with canned corn) a cupful of milk, two cupfuls of any good stock, water from rice or cooked celery, one cupful of diced potatoes, two tablespoonfuls of

Cook all together; serve hot.
Baked Bananas.—Skin and scrape the fruit, cutting in halves the long way. Put four bananas thus sliced in the frying pan with the steak, dust with salt and fry until brown. Place on a round of steak and garnish with sprigs of parsley.
Walnut Roast.—Take one-third of a cupful of rice, one half cupful of bread crumbs, one cupful of ground walnuts, one cupful of solid tomato, one egg, one small onion ground, a sprig of parsley minced, one half teaspoonful of salt, one-eighth of a teaspoonful of pepper, one sweet green pepper ground, one pint of mashed potato. Cook the onion and pepper slightly in one tablespoonful of bacon fat. Mix all but the potato together, shape in a loaf and bake twenty minutes. Remove and cover with the potato and bake fifteen minutes longer in a moderate oven. Serve with a tomato sauce.
Chocolate Cookies.—Take one cupful of sugar, one-half cupful of butter, one-half cupful of sour milk, one and one-half cupfuls of flour, one-half cupful of walnut meats, one egg, one-half teaspoonful of soda and two squares of chocolate. Mix and drop from a teaspoon.
Cream Sponge Cake.—Take one cupful of sugar, add two egg yolks and mix well. Add one cupful of sweet cream, then add two and three-fourths cupfuls of flour, a little salt, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, flavoring and then fold in the whites of the eggs. Bake in layers. Fill with cream filling.

Baked Beans. — Wash and soak a pound of lima beans over night. In the morning put them on in plenty of water and simmer until tender; then drain and put into a bean pot or baking dish with salt, pepper, and one-fourth of a pound of bacon which has been put through the meat grinder, a tablespoonful of salt, two tablespoonfuls of molasses and one tablespoonful of grated onion. Add enough water to come to the top of the beans and bake until a golden brown.
Lemon Butter for Tarts.—Put over one cupful of water in a saucepan; when bolling hot add one tablespoonful of flour mixed with a little cold water to pour, cook until smooth, then boil ten minutes. Add an egg which has been beaten with one-half cupful of sugar and a little salt. Bring to the bolling point, add the :int from a lemon finely grated and three tablespoonfuls of juice. Remove at once from the heat and beat two minutes. When cold it is ready to fill tart shells.
Crinkle Cakes.—Work one-half cupful of almond paste until smooth, add to it one cupful of washed butter and when creamy add slowly three-fourths of a cupful of sugar, one egg, one tablespoonful of mixed flavoring, using one teaspoonful of lemon, one-half teaspoonful of almond and the rest of vanilla. Add two and one-half cupfuls of flour and mix well; force this mixture through a pastry bag and a rose tube and bake in a moderate oven.
Corn Bread.—Take one cupful each of yellow cornmeal, white flour and sour cream, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one-half teaspoonful of soda and one-half teaspoonful of salt. Mix all the dry ingredients, add the cream in which the soda has been stirred. Mix all together, adding one tablespoonful of sugar. Beat well and spread in a sheet iron baking pan and bake in a slow oven for an hour.
Minced Lamb Sandwiches.—Take two cupfuls of lean cooked lamb chopped, add two tablespoonfuls of capers ground with the meat, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of paprika, one-half teaspoonful of dry mustard and one teaspoonful of salt. Mix well and spread on slices of bran or whole wheat bread which has been buttered.
Raisin Drop Cakes.—Take one-third of a cupful of shortening, two eggs, one cupful of raisins, one cupful of sugar, one teaspoonful of vanilla, one cupful of milk, two and one-half teaspoonful of baking powder, two cupfuls of corn flour and a little salt. Mix and chill, drop by spoonfuls on baking sheet and bake in hot oven.
Frosting.—Take three cupfuls of confectioner's sugar, one whole egg, three tablespoonfuls of cream. Add the sugar to the other ingredients a little at a time. Spread on the cookies when nearly cold.
The day's at the spring.
The morn is dew pearled.
God's in his heaven.

POTATO COOKERY
Potatoes are a common food upon our tables but in the average home are not prepared in enough ways to lend variety to the food.
APPLES
Potato Soup. Boll four medium sized potatoes in salted water until soft, then put them through a ricer. Slice one small onion and put it into a quart of milk to scald. Remove the onion and add the milk to the mashed potato. Melt three tablespoonfuls of butter, add two tablespoonfuls of flour, cook for two minutes, add to the milk with salt and pepper to taste, boil up one minute and serve sprinkled with parsley.
Stuffed Potatoes.—Take six medium-sized long potatoes, bake until done. Cut a slice from the side of each, scoop out the potato, season it with cream, salt, butter; beat until well blended, then add the whites of two eggs beaten until stiff. Refill the skins and bake five to ten minutes in a hot oven. The potato may be sprinkled with cheese, paprika, or parsley before serving.
Franconia Potatoes.—Peel potatoes and cut into quarters, parbott ten minutes, drain and place around the roast an hour before serving time. Baste often to give the potatoes a rich brown color.
Plain boiled potatoes if sliced and carefully fried in butter, keeping the slices whole, is a most attractive manner of serving them.
Pokeweed, common in the South and Middle states, may be served cooked in bunches as one does asparagus, or a soup prepared as any cream soup, will make a most dainty dish.

Miss C. L.

You never can tell what will happen.'"—Boston Transcript.

Normal Temperature.
As defined by experts, normal temp-
ature for any place is the tempera-
ture obtained by averaging a period
of temperatures so long that further
additions will not materially affect the
result. Actually, however, there are
only a few such long records in the
country, and normal is taken to mean
the average of a period of observation
of selected length, usually the longest
obtainable.

Mode in New Crepe Frocks; New Ideas in Spring Veils
SPRING collections stress the continued vogue of crepe and georgette for dinner and afternoon gowns. The appeal of new inspiration is not in the fabric, but in the remarkable colorings. It may not be good English to say that these colorings are "delicious," but somehow it conveys the idea of the lovely tones and tints of these exquisite picture frocks.
Naive simplicity gives to these gowns of exquisite coloring their distinction. The models which mildly of the big spotted effects having gone out of fashion. The new dotted strictly face vells show their up-to-dateness through color. The correct mode this spring is to match the dot to the color scheme of the hat, which means that the tiny conventional dot are apt to be copper colored, tomato red, periwinkle, orchid, bright blue and especially sand shade on a very insignificuous background of negligible notice against the flesh.

fashion has accepted as ideal, are of one color throughout, and while there may be floating panels, side skirt-drapes and flowing sleeves, as to trimming, it is conspicuous by its absence, save perhaps roses of self fabric, hand-drawn hemstitching or tucks which are very plentiful just now.
Georgette, and again romaine, with crepe de chine and some marocain, are the chosen fabrics. These are in such entrancing shades as orchid, larkspur blue, amberglow, periwinkle, copper tones, tomato red, gray, and an endless number of sand and tans.
Color symphony is sometimes effected through a girdle of two tones of broad satin ribbon, such as, for instance, citron green with larkspur blue

on an orchid gown. The last word in this stressing of color and crepe is to trim the hat with a streamer scarf of the gown fabric.
The simple crepe frock to the left, is indicative of the new monotone crepe afternoon costume.
Classic draping, as is shown to the right in the navy crepe frock, bead-embroidered, is also a decided feature of the season's modes.
In th day when veils were veils, we wore them over the face; now we wear them over the hat, the shoulders, or trailing to waistline and below, according to the whims of their trimming mood.
There are veils, however, that are true to original intention, but they are limited, for the most part, to chenille-dotted yardage. By the way, these dots are preferably small this season.

veils, and the latest in these show interweavings of two colors such as gray and white, sand and white and particularly black and white.
It is, however, the veil of trimming mood which is holding sway this season. Here elaborately fanciful design enters, and this is particularly true of the bright dyed veils. At this moment, every one is taking to wearing smart untrimmed felt shapes over which are thrown gayest of gayed chantilly lace veils, caught with a rhinestone dagger pin at the front. Newest of all are the long flowing veils of georgette in a chosen solid color. These fall from the crown to the back, extending below the waist. Shetland white veils are modish and

that leads to the subject of white, which is quite the hit of the season for vells.
The eyebrow vell which is really at curtain of malines or thin lace, co quettishly screening the eyes, is very popular again this season. A new vell with mesh like fish net is expressively called "the witch."
Three distinct vell types are shown in the illustration. The large square vell shows fine white chenille patterned on black. Brown Spanish lace is draped as a streamer on center hat. Over the flower toque is thrown a navy blue scroll-patterned vell.
