LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY WONDERS OF THE HOLY LAND; WHY EVERY MINISTER SHOULD SEE THEM By MRS. LELIA WALKER WILSON, (President, The Mme. C. J. Walker Mfg. Co.) VOL. XXIX. NO MATTER in which manner approach to Palestine is made, one somehow feels that he has begun a sojourn among the most Holy of Holies, and not because of the absence of company, for there are many fellow pilgrims on the boats and trains that touch points in the Holy Land. There are merchants and traders, too, from the four points of the compass and still hundreds of others moving, about with apparently no thought of the sacred land in which they move. Their lack of appreciation of the unequalled wonders of their native land is common, just as America's wonders are often passed unnoticed by us. Upon arriving, one is impressed with the politeness of the customs' officials whose virtues, by the way, do not include immunity from grafting and petty thievery. A coin placed into the examining officers' hands is known to be the trick that facilitates an easy and hasty entrance to the Land Where Christ Lived. Once in, you are known to all who chance to see you as a person of untold wealth. Foreigners, in spite of the thousands who visit there annually, are novelties and the natives seek to obtain a souvenir from every one they see. Jerusalem, the first point of interest I visited in Palestine and the largest and most important city, is situated on four hills, 2,500 feet above the Mediterranean Sea, and surrounded on three sides by ravines, the fourth side joining one of the hills with the main range of mountains of the country. It is truly the Golden City, as may be seen by the countless golden domes, spires and minarets of a thousand and more churches, mosques and synagogues glittering and dazzling in the sunlight and the houses of white stone and rough marble silhouetted against the azure sky, representing the residences and business shops of 70,000 Moslems, Jews and Christians. Scores of ill-paved, crooked, narrow streets mark the paths through the city and lend their bit to the enchantment of the Holy Land. Antedating the birth of Christ, Palestine has been a hot-bed of religious wars, massacres and destruction, and much that is which allures and draws one there can be said to have resulted from these wars. In more peaceful times progress would have crept in and doubtless wiped out the history that remains. Strange enough to say, Mohammedanism is the principal religion of Palestine and its hold on the majority of the people is remarkable, and even stranger to say, their principal church, the Mosque Oman, erected A.D. 691, is the most beautiful structure of its kind in the world. In Jerusalem there is to be seen the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, which it is said covers the spot where Jesus Christ's body was anointed by Nicodemus and which contains the Rock Calvary, a stone with two foot prints said to be those of Christ, and the stone that was rolled away from the mouth of the sepulchre by an angel. Then there is the Russian Evacuation Church, which encloses the original gates of Jerusalem, the Garden of Gethsemane, the tomb of Mary and the Chapel of the Ascension on the State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House FOR THE ONLY RELIANCE COLORA OLY LAND; WHY SHOULD SEE THEM WALKER WILSON, C. J. Walker Mfg. Co.) Mount of Olives, containing a rock marked by tradition as the exact spot where Christ ascended into Heaven; there is the tomb of David on Mount Zion and the chamber of the Lord's last supper; the Jew's Walling Place, which is against the wall of Solomon and is where the Jews go daily to cry and pray for the revelation of the burial place of the Ten Commandments. The city of Bethlehem, the home of David and the birthplace of Christ, is interesting for its Church of the Nativity, erected over the birthplace of Christ and containing the resting place of the manger. Here also is located the Chapel of Innocence. Bethlehem represents the beginning of the history of Christ and offers splendid opportunity for first hand comparison of much relating to His early life. There is Jericho, the Promised Land with Elijah's fountain beside the school of the Sons of the Prophets and Bethany, which is now an entirely Moslem city, with the spot where stood the house of Simon, the leper, and where Lazarus was resurrected by Christ, and then the Dead Sea and the River of Jordan with muddy, turbulent waters and which rises in Mount Hermon. These are by no means all the wonders of the Holy Land. There are as many more, of lesser importance, but interesting and related very directly to the more famous biblical historical places. Palestine is wonderful, and though the least of all the lands, it is with influence that penetrates into the furthermost corner of the earth. It is not a beautiful land, but picturesque and possessing all the requisites that go to make beauty—hills and valleys, sloping plateaus and rugged shore lines, barren deserts and verdant meadows. To go there and see the wonders of the past is to receive an unequalled education, to be a master of biblical history and to gain a more clear and comprehensive knowledge of the Christ that was and the Christianity that is. A trip to the Holy Land and full realization of much the Bible speaks of should be aspired to by every one and most certainly by the large number of church men whose chosen field is service and the perpetuation of the teachings of Christ. And such a trip is not impossible. It is within your reach. A trip to Palestine, the wonderful Holy Land, free of all cost, is yours if you determine to earn it. Buy and read race papers April 1st and learn how to make this unequalled trip free of all cost. Buy, read and act. CHEYENNE, WYO., NEWS. On Sunday evening the girls of the A. B. G. Reserves, at the A. M. E. Church, presented the Bible play, "Queen Esther," to a large and appreciative audience. Hattie Brown made a stern King Ahaseurus; Edyth Gaskin, a beautiful Queen Esther; Marjory Witte, a subtle Haman, and Barbara Lewis, a noble Mordecai. The lovely maidens from the King's provinces, the servants, water carriers, messengers and heralds were each well cast for their several parts. This is the girls' initial performance and parents and friends were very proud of them. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 17, 1923. Greater Bethel Opens Doors to Overflow Crowd Over Three Thousand Dollars in Cash Laid on Table at Sunday Rally Greater Bethel Church, the largest church owned by our race in the world, was dedicated Sunday when a crowd of nearly 7,000 stormed the doors to gain entrance. Thousands were turned away. The greatest crowd that ever assembled in the United States packed the four floors Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. Newspaper reporters and photographers, men in all walks of life with the fairer sex clinging to their elbows came. Old settlers belonging to many of the different churches in this city that represent all denominations found their way to this great edifice at 4200 Grand boulevard. Bishop L. J. Coppin of Philadelphia, Pa.; Bishop B. F. Lee, senior African Methodist Episcopal prelate of Wilberforce, Ohio; Bishop H. B. Parks and Bishop Archibald J. Carey of Chicago were on the program. Dr. C. M. Tanner, brother of the late Bishop Tanner, who has just finished serving six months as pastor of Bethel, has added one more jewel to his crown of record-breaking church rallies. Sunday $3,200 in cash was laid on the table. In the last thirty days Dr. Tanner raised $14,000. The present home of the Bethel congregation is not only the largest, but it is the most beautiful and the most elaborate home of any church of our group in the world. The main auditorium seats 3,000 and 2,000 can be cared for in the gymnasium, two stories below. In connection Bethel will carry on one of the largest community centers in America. The basement contains the largest swimming pool in Chicago. The main floor has a large lobby and veranda, also a spacious dining room. On the third floor are assembly and recreation rooms, library, day nursery, boys' club and an employment bureau. Edgar Brown is director of the community center and Mrs. C. Cole Plummer is director of physical education. Prof. James A. Mundy, head of the National School of Music, conducts the 100-piece orchestra and Miss Cleo Dickerson plays the newly installed $20,000 pipe organ, with Mrs. Nellie Bomar at the baby grand. There are three special lighting fixtures in the auditorium that represent an outlay of $1,000 each, almost a dollar for every inch of the triangular ceiling. The leaders of the African Methodist Episcopal Church have made a real contribution to the city of Chicago, the state of Illinois, the United States and to the world, as well as to the religious life of the people.—Chicago Defender. ELECTORS, TAKE NOTICE. All persons who have changed their addresses since last election are instructed to call at the election commission office in basement court house. Sixteenth and Tremont streets, between the hours of 9 a. m. and 5 p. m., and change addresses. THE FIELD SECRETARY THE NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION 407 Third Street, N. E. Washington, D. C. March 10, 1923. My dear Brother Editor: This is a word to compliment you upon the good sense you used and the fine forethought to have given that splendid American, your honored governor of your great state, the space you did when he sat that "cracker" brother in his sent away back where all crackers should be made to go. We have so few men like Governor Sweet and the former great governor of Illinois, the Hon. Mr. Lowden, that we should never lose a chance to give them front page space. Again I compliment you. Will you please put this office on your exchange list? And send me a dozen copies of the Statesman containing the article concerning the cracker and Governor Sweet, as I wish to pass the paper to hands which will appreciate them and may serve our race when the chance comes. And I have the pleasure to subscribe myself. Very sincerely yours, MELVIN CHISUM. N. A. A. C. P. Helps Defeat Delaware Bill to Disfranchise Negroes in School Election A bill passed by the Delaware House of Representatives, which would have disfranchised Negroes in elections affecting white schools, was defeated in the Delaware Senate on March 5 by a vote of 9 to 8, due partly to the efforts of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, which telegraphed protest to the governor and Senate of Delaware and had representatives present at the hearing on the measure. Mrs. Alice Dunbar Nelson of the Wilmington branch, N. A. A. C. P., who is also managing editor of the Philadelphia and 'Wilmington Advocate, appeared for the Advancement Association in protest against the measure. The delegation accompanying Mrs. Dunbar to Dover included Dr. Jason of the State College, also a member of the legislative committee of the Delaware State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs. Defeat by the Advancement Association of Representative Caleb R. Layton of Delaware, in the November elections, because of his vote against the Dyer anti-lynehing bill, helped to bring about the defeat of the school bill. Democrats were disinclined to antagonize the colored voter, according to "The Evening Journal" of Wilmington, which said in its news report on March 5: "The first bill is the one which it was claimed might disfranchise Negroes and Roman Catholics, who send their children to parochial schools, from voting at school elections. This bill, it is claimed, is in jeopardy in the Senate and may fail largely because Democratic leaders feel this is not the time to make any direct slap at the Negro vote, especially after the Negroes supported the Democratic party at the last election." The bill was opposed by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, on the ground that the Negroes would be taxed for bond issues voted on in elections in which they were disfranchised and would therefore be subject to taxation without representation; also because the measure was class legislation. THE NEGRO EDUCATIONAL CONGRESS TWENTY-FIFTH ANNUAL SESSION AT WASHINGTON, D. C.; DELEGATES NAMED BY GOVERNORS By Jonathan Cover THE TWENTY-FIFTH annual meeting of the above association convened at the John Wesley A. M. E. Church from the 5th to 9th and has been acclaimed as the most successful meeting in the history of the organization. The extensive program covering the vital questions of Negro citizenship, education and progress was participated in by the delegates appointed by the governors of states and other members of the association. Perhaps it is the first time in the history of Negro conferences when there has been assembled so many representative Negroes bearing credentials issued by governors of sovereign states. It is interesting and encouraging to know that thirty-six of these executives responded to the request of President Silas J. Harris and not only appointed delegates to the conference, but forwarded letters of commendation, approving in unequivocal terms the aims and ideals it sought to promote. Perhaps, too, among the most significant of such communications were those of the governors of Montana and Colorado. Governor Dixon of the former state alluded to the fact that while he was born in the South, he was at the same time a product of abolitionist parents and had consequently inherited a viewpoint of the opinions of that section. He believed in the equality of human rights and privilege and that every American, regardless of color or creed, was entitled to equal protection and opportunity under the flag." The governor of Colorado strongly approved the objects of the conference and later in a telegram invited the farmers of the race to come to the great Centennial State, assuring them of an "open door" in the land of the Golden West and an equal opportunity to share in the blessings as well as the responsibilities of its citizenship. The letters of the governors, as also from President Harding, regretting that he was leaving for a much needed vacation on the day the conference convened, were read by John H. Paynter, who in association with Messrs. Hardy and Perkins were duly accredited delegates from Colorado. Among the questions discussed at the various sessions were the following: "How can we make Negro citizenship a reality?" "Is the accident of color a real or imaginary barrier to race progress" "How may the present spirit of antagonism between the white and Negro peoples be eliminated?" "Should the education of the two races be identical?" Are there too many secret societies among Negroes and could the money spent for their maintenance be more advantageously used by investment in commercial enterprises?" "How can we encourage our young men and women to remain on the farm?" What, if any advantage, will the Negro gain by dividing his vote? Some of those participating in the discussion of these various subjects were; Rev. Mr. Robinson, Michigan; Hackley, Illinois; Rhoneneis, Iowa; Garrison, Iowa; Beard, South Carolina; Brown, Virginia; McConnell, West Virginia; Dr. H. Y. Arnett, Delaware, and Messrs. Young, Louisiana; Melvine, Virginia; John W. Thompson, Rochester, who originated the idea and carried to success the erection of a statue in that city to Frederick Doughass; G. S. Ruffin, West Virginia; Mrs. Pinkney, Texas; Mrs. Lena Hall, Illinois, and Mrs. Mona Gray, Washington, D. C. At the Friday afternoon session unanimous consent was asked to have read into the records of the conference the noble words of the governor of Colorado in rebuke of one S. J. Hines, a member of an improvement association of the city of Denver, who sought his aid to have the Legislature pass a resolution to establish a separate school system for the races with a view to bring about conditions similar to those which obtain in his home state of Mississippi. Governor Sweet informed Hines that he had better return south of Mason and Dixon's line if he would like these matters handled in that way, for Colorado handled them differently. The governor further said that he doubted very much if such a measure could be passed through the Legislature and very emphatically stated that if it did pass he would refuse to sign it. All of which, as read from the issue of the COLORADO STATESMAN of March 3rd, was roundly applauded by the delegates and the large number of visitors present. Splendid and inspiring addresses were made at the evening sessions by Senators Fess of Ohio, McCormick of Illinois and Spencer of Missouri, all of whom were eloquent and outspoken in their commendation and defense of Negro citizenship. Register Speelman of the treasury, Rev. Dr. Stewart of the Methodist A. M. E. Church, Col. Phil. Miller of the burgau of labor, Dr. Henry J. Callis, Prof. LeRoy Locke of Howard University, Prof. Chas, Thomas of Dunbar High, Prof. Jesse Lawson of the Freelinghuysen University and Mrs. Willa Dwiggins of Kansas also gave interesting addresSES. Rev. W. O. Carrington of the John Wesley Church made the welcome address and Prof. Frank Johnson arranged and conducted the musical program. The address to the nation, among other things, encourages rural home life, seeks to stimulate business activity, urges the country to outlaw lynching and mob violence, declares for equal opportunity for Christian education and voices an unalterable faith in God and the religion of Jesus Christ, as the saving element of the race, of the nation and of humanity. The executive committee will decide upon the time and place for the next annual meeting. Hon. J. Silas Harris and J. A. Lankford, Esq., were chosen unanimously as president and secretary-treasurer for the next year. NO.22. FOREIGN The French and Belgians by declaring that they are ready when Germany begins payment, to evacuate the Ruhr and the territory recently occupied on the right bank of the Rhine, believe they have dealt a big blow to German propaganda. Although offering no very definite evidence to support their statements, some of the British correspondents in the Ruhr assert that there is a tendency towards peace and that both sides would welcome a settlement ending the strain of the past few weeks. Nearly 300 prisoners taken in the week-end raids in England and Scotland are understood to have been landed at Dublin from British warships, 200 men from one, and the balance, including about thirty women, from another. All were conveyed under heavy armed guard to fail. It is estimated that 150 Greek naval officers and men were drowned when the Greek transport Alexander capsized and foundered during a fierce gale between Salamis and Pirseus. The transport had on board 250 officers and men, on furough from the cruisers Georgie, Savroff, Kilkis and Lennos. China's recent note to Japan, requesting that a discussion be held with a view of returning Dalny and Port Arthur to China, was interpreted in Tokio as no less than a communication declaring abrogated the Chino-Japanese treaty of 1915, which embodied the "twenty-one demands." The terms of the Chinese note came as a surprise to Japan. The German population of the Recklinghausen district has been warned by General Lalgnelot, commanding the district, that if any further French troops are assassinated or ambushed, the burgomaster of Buer, who is held as a hostage, together with four other town officials, will be shot at once as a measure of retaliation. The foreign office at Paris received a detailed synopsis of the Turkish government's reply to the Lausanne peace proposals. From the synopsis it appears that a large number of the provisions of the Lausanne treaty are called into question, and that acceptance of the Turkish contentions would involve drastic changes in the original draft of the treaty. It has been reported that the British government has formally protested on legal grounds against the French occupation of territories between the Rhine bridgeheads. It is learned authoritatively, however, that no formal protest has been made, but only verbal representations through diplomatic channels, pointing out the difficulties created for the British authorities in the Rhineland. The Free State government has definitely rejected the latest, and what many observers considered the most promising, move for peace in Ireland. Archbishop Harty of Cashel and several others, influential friends of the government, in Munster, recently proposed an immediate truce under which the Republicans would dump all their arms under a pledge that they be handed over to whichever party won the next election. GENERAL Receivers were appointed in Federal Court at Buffalo, N. 1., for the L. R. Steel enterprises, in which the public has invested about $22,000,000. All creditors of the Lincoln Motor Car Company, purchased last year by Henry Ford at a receiver's sale, have been reimbursed in full by Mr. Ford. The story of how Miss Evelyn Lyons fooled the medical profession of Escanamba, Mich., newspaper men and sympathetic neighbors for twenty-one days through her ingenuous fever-raising tactics by a hot water bottle was unfolded by Dr. Harry J. Defnet, city health commissioner of Escanaba. The hoax was made possible through the aid of a hot water bottle of the same color as the girl's night dress, Dr. Defnet said. An engineer was killed and a carload of livestock was burned to death when two freight trains of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad crashed at Leaf River near Chicago, in a blinding snowfall. The dead man was J. Hogan of Savannah, Ill. His train struck the rear end of the other. George Herman (Babe) Ruth has been made defendant in a suit for $50,000 brought by attorneys for Miss Delores Dixon, who charges that the baseball player assaulted her at various times last summer, Ruth's attorneys disclosed in New York City. The attorney, Hyman Bushell, said Ruth declared he was being blackmailed. Floating on an ice cake in the Missouri river, near Omaha, to certain death, with the banks lined with friends and relatives unable to avert the tragedy, two Iowa boys chose as their farewell message the hymn, "Nearer, My God, to Thee." For hours the woung men, Harvey McIntosh, and his brother, Tom, of Mondamin, Iowa, had been marooned on a sandbar in the Missouri river, thirty miles north of Omaha, following a sudden rise of the river that swept away their boat while they were hunting ducks. All persons riding in government-owned aircraft are now required to wear a parachute on every flight, according to officers at Chanute field, Rantoul, Ill. Death, injury and damage were the harvest of furious March storms which recently swept many sections of the region between the Rockies and the Appalachian mountains. Luis Angel Firpo, South American pugilist, who knocked out Bill Brennan in the twelfth round at Madison Square Garden, New York City, is looking for more worlds to conquer. NEWS TO DATE IN PARAGRAPHS CAUGHT FROM THE NETWORK OF WIRES ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD. DURING THE PAST WEEK RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS CONDENSED FOR BUSY PEOPLE. WESTERN Organization of the Brotherhood National Bank of Spokane is expected to be completed soon. Two armed highwaymen bound the proprietor and two employés, one a young woman, in the G. Cramer jewelry store on an upper floor of a downtown office building in Portland, Ore. and escaped with several thousand dollars in jewelry and watches. A charge of first degree murder has been filed in Vancouver, Wash., against George Edward Whitfield, in an attempt to establish his alleged connection with the murder of 11-year-old Anna Nosko while the child was on her way home from school. Three members of the California Legislature and one former member were among those held up by five masked bandits and robbed of several thousand dollars in cash and jewelry at the Dreamland Café, a road house twenty-four miles from Sacramento. Rezoning of the state of Montana for application of insurance rates on bail damage to crops, and preparation of new forms and drafting of new rultrgs to comply with the new amendments to the bail insurance law, was begun by the state bail insurance board in its first meeting of the year held at Helena. Plates with which $14,500 worth of bogus $20 bills were made in a Seattle boathouse were found cached in a log in Madra park by federal secret service agents following the arrest and alleged confession of Paul Dimm. Patrick E. Sullivan, arrested in Vancouver, B. C. and Robert Yates, Fred Elkins and Edward Nicodemus, under arrest in San Francisco, are implicated in Dimm's confession. Protest against the advancing price of sugar is voiced in a telegram sent to Herbert Hoover, secretary of commerce, by Dr. E. S. Barnes, president of the Northwest States Federated Cooperative Fruit Growers, as a result of a four-day conference of the growers recently ended in Tacoma. Increased cost of sugar for canning, the telegram asserts, results seriously to the fruit growers' interests. WASHINGTON Secretary of the Interior Work performed one of his first official acts when he took over a historic piece of ground in the states of Utah and Colorado, set aside in a proclamation issued by President Harding on March 2, to be preserved for posterity. This ground has been designed as a national monument and the Indian word, "Hovenweep," meaning "deserted valley," is the name that has been given it. Modification of the national defense plans resulting from agreements reached by the arms conference are to receive their first practical tryout in the Panama area. Carefully analyzed in theory by the navy and army war colleges, the operations are expected to develop the enhanced importance of the canal as a prime link in the defense chain which includes the navy, army, merchant marine and the national industrial machine. Vulcan's pipe was out again and Lassen peak, after spouting smoke and steam for more than two hours has resumed the same peaceful exterior it has borne for many months. Meetings now in progress among ship operators in the west coast conference, with the reported purpose of agreeing on rates on dried and canned fruits from Pacific ports to Europe hold only an "academic interest" for the shipping board, it was sold officially at Washington. The emergency fleet corporation withdrew a year ago from the traffic which would be affected, it was explained, and will not re-enter it so long as adequate American tonnage is assured to shipers. Secretary Wallace of the Department of Agriculture believes the farm credits act to be one of the most important pieces of legislation passed by the last Congress and that by stabilizing agricultural production and marketing its effect will be reflected in business generally. "It marks an earnest effort by Congress to provide the farmer with the sort of credit he must have to carry on efficiently," he said, "and to meet a need which has been felt for fifty years." The names of twenty-one women have been approved by Acting Secretary Davis of the war department and officially will be noted on the army's roll of honor for distinguished and exceptionally meritorious service during the war. Approval of the new list brings the total number of names to thirty-three. Claudius H. Huston, assistant secretary of commerce, has resigned to become president of the World Commerce Corporation, a new oil company in process of organization, which will operate in South and Central America.

There is little pasture at the present time, as ranges are generally covered with snow and in the sections where bare the grass has been largely used up. Range and feed are both short in some sections of the southeast and a shortage of water is reported. The mild winter has tended to conserve the hay supply and the present supply is reported as 94 per cent of normal, compared with 91 per cent on February 1 and 83 per cent on January 1. Cattle are in excellent condition due to the mild winter. Practically no disease and very few losses are reported.

WHY WORRY? ne. view of the needless paroxysms of colorphobia that seem to have de- scended upon Denver in recent months, it might serve a usefyl purpose to quote from a recent address of Dr. R. R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, In the course of a rather extended address on racial problems, he said: ‘The Negro does not object to separation, but fe does object, and rightly so, to degradation and inferiority, whieh segregation sometimes car- ries with it.” ‘To this, a leading white paper, commenting upon the declaration, observed that, “We believe that white men of the better sort can and do, in principle, agree,” It would seem to us that such sentiments, if moulded into principles and established policies, would just about settle many vexed problems for all times. Negroes enjoy the society of each other, prefer their own church af- filiations and find themselves grouped together in any and all public places in answer to that same racial instinct that causes any other people of any tongue or race to band together. Our one and only objection arises from dis- crimination or proscription merely because of color or race, We oppose and shall ever refuse to recognize any “fixed place” for us by those who are styled the dominant group. We presume the term “dominance” is meant to apply to a dominance of numbers. Certainly we admit nothing mote than this, for to do so would be accepting the very degradation and inferiority to which we object as being placed upon us by racial segregation, The degree of Negro patience was never more beautifully exemplified than here in Denver at this time, Aside from a scurrilous sheet called the “Messenger,” that is strewn from one end of the city to another each week with the sole purpose of arousing enmity between the races (and a more despicable mission is not conceivable), the daily press has given much space 10 a phase of the subject that in a measure is’ hurtful to us. So far it has all been bluff and bluster. Our legal rights have not in any manner been invaded as yet. Our civil status remains unassailed. However, our group is not asleep, and every move of the enemy is being carefully watched, even including the progress of Senate Bill 413 that recently bobbed up in the State Legislature, ‘That bill, granting extended powers to cities planning on adopt- ing the zoning system, inay become a Inw, but NEVER with any features of a “joker” or racial clause. Our leaders are on the job every minute, so uieccter a? LOOKING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION. EGePEHE world is looking to the United States for guidance, confidence and i brotherhood,” declared a speaker before the Denver Y, M,C, A., last Saturday night at a meeting in the Daniels & Fisher tea rooms, «It svas a beautiful thing to say, and no doubt the speaker was seriously in earnest if one may judge from the portions of Iris address that appeared in the daily papers, But it is one thing to make a declaration and quite anoiher to bring the needed proofs in substantiation, It may be that the nations of {he world, now so completely,in turmoil and travail, are turning In the hour of their anguish to the United States for a comforting erumb of some char- acter, and if that be forthcoming in confidence and brotherhood all well and good. A stranded ship will seek any port in a storm, though it is not always certain that the harbor gained will offer ample protection. It is a similitude that applies readily to the present situation, and this to a measure, was sensed by the speaker, who thus concluded his remarks: “Tam alurmed for the future of the world, though Tam not an alarmist nor a pessimist, My ‘nlarm js Jest the United States should miss the day of her visitation, ‘Through the ¥. M,C. A. this Jand can reach out and bring to bear all that is best in our lives. Under the tutelage of Protestant Churches, the Y. M, ©, A. has principles which, if applied, would make the world better. What we need is regeneration more than reconstruction In the world.” ‘There is, indeed, ample room for the alarm that the speaker confesses to, and nowhere is it more manifest than in the United States. ‘That being true, it would seem the part of utter folly, as well as a lack of intelligent outlook, to feel that the nations of the world must look to this country for guidance, confidence and brotherhood. ‘These things must be pretty well es- tablished within one’s own domain before radiating to any vast extent to the outside, Christian civilization in the U, S. is not of a superior quality and cannot be said to be beyond that of any other country. Looking to this nation for guidance, when we are groping in the blackness of « night of lawlessness, mob violence and labor disturbances as abyssmal as ever curtained the dark ‘ages! Looking to this government for confidence, when that element is un- known today in Congress, Legislatures or Municipalities. If our national in- stitutions are upon insecure grounds, it is because of our lack of faith in the claims and professions ‘of governmental heads and leaders. Looking to this country for brotherhood, when that very beautiful doctrine has long since been denied a lodging place in our general scheme of things. And the incon- gruity of a pretended belief in the Fatherhood of God is magnified to the point of blasphemy by the open denial of the brotherhood of man. And in this denial and incongruity the United States holds first rank. Tt therefore becomes self-evident that the nations of the world must look elsewhere for those fundamentals that mean a return to world sanity and world peace. ‘They must look for high and stainless ideals; this we haven't got.

In 1921, for instance, more than one million two hundred thousand people came to the parks from all parts of the country, and one of them alone, the Rocky Mountain National park, furnished pleagyre and relaxation to 273,737 visitors in a single year. ‘Two-thirds of these travel by automobile, bring- ing their own equipment. Then what about the roads —that prime necessity of the motorist? It is well-nigh unbelievable that they have been woefully heglected, and that to date no program of any magnitude has been approved by the congress for the construction, improvement and maintenance of highways in our national parks. In the Rocky Mountain National park which had the maximum number of visitors during the past year, congress has only authorized the expenditure of $35,000 for road improvement since its establishment. i Bear in mind also that in recent years road building has been under way all around these parks. Splendid highways have been constructed with federal, state and county money right up to the park boundaries where the tourist has met with unimproved roads or roads with but a semblance of improvement. ; Senators, this matter of adequate roads is not a selfish, a local or solely a western issue, The parks are widely scattered and the number of visitors affects travel in every state in the Union. The proposition is this: ‘The congress, representing the will of the nation, has created these parks for the use, enjoyment and benefit of all its people. This was extremely wise, as no investment could yield better returns in improving the health and quality of our citizenship, in promoting that unity of national feeling, the love of country, called patriotism. Having already taken this step, will the congress now deny, to a large extent, the means whereby the parks may be used and enjoyed? Now, Mr. President, there is one thing lacking. One well-nigh for- gotten class of government reservations should be connected up with the other highway chains already authorized. We must remember our national parks. Only the Potent Voice of America Can Speak the True Word of Peace By EX-PREMIER NITTI, in “Decadence of Europe.” Great Britain has made the greatest efforts toward peace, a fact that will constitute for her a claim to glory after her great efforts in the war. She has declared herself ready to renounce all in order that Europe might be reconstructed and the work of destruction, which poisons the world, might’ be stopped. France will realize sooner or later that the greatest glory for her is to follow Great Britain on this road. But, so long as the discord of today endures, only the potent voice of the United States of America can speak the true word of peace. * * * ‘There is much talk in*Europe of the greed and selfishness of America. Nothing could be more unjust. America, during the war, lavishly pro- vided the material means toward winning victory; at the decisive moment she also furnished the men. Nothing caused greater alarm in Germany than the arrival of the American troops; the Germans realized that America had enormous reserves of material and men, that the die had been cast against them * * * After the unjust treaties of peace had been drawn up, America gave proof of dignity and political sense in not assuming any responsibility for the growing state of disorder in Europe. * * * America alone, just as she was the decisive factor in the war, can be the decisive factor in the peace. ad Saad Ga) Ca) Cn) Cc) ee) Cd Ce See Sa Ge fd Cad a Ot a a alle There Are Many Young People Not in College Who Ought to Be There By ABRAM W. HARRIS, Former President Northwestern University. The only students in college today who do not belong there are those who lack any serious objective and are there im a perfunctory and negli- gent spirit. I do agree with some educators who say that there are many who ought not to be there, but there are many young people not in college who ought to be there. I favor any sorting-out process which is entirely just, but none has yet been proved to be so. ‘The infinite, individual difference and variety of experience and background completely baffle every known method in many cases. After all, the actual trial seems to be the only just method, In the freshman year a weeding-out process goes on. ‘This sorting out of the various grades of intellects is one of the really great functions of education. Ita effect upon this country has been enor- mous, as it falls into the process of picking leaders of thought. ‘The large number of young people in college today does not nec- essarily mean they are crowding the professions. The great shortage of doctors, dentists, teachers and ministers disproves this, although law may be an exception.

They follow the most strident leadership; they have “the bloom of youth”—and are im- mediately condemned by the very press whose advertisements they have too faithfully followed. So with the skirt controversy, the high-heel controversy, the decolle- tage question and many otherymore serious forms of extravagance and display, as well as with much false and superficial thinking. The best taste and opinion are not organized to compete with the cheap and com- mercial ‘The latter wins, and the best, too late, falls foul of the result. Youth is always imitative and rarely analytical. It follows the salient model. So long as we standardize the average the model followed will be faulty, for it will be many thousand years before the average approxi- matas to the best. : | | err SS oa . x a eo «4 = es hip: u Ae id a aA F T.

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS Briton Says Japan Fooled Conference Development of Water Transportation Progress of the Birth Control Bill Seen Why Congress and Country Get a Rest Arms Conference by Hector Bywater WASHINGTON.—Something of a furor has been stirred up in naval, political and diplomatic circles here by the publication in the Atlantic Monthly of an article written by Hector Bywater, celebrated British naval authority, calling the Washington armament conference a "patent failure" in its main purpose and describing in rather frank manner how the Japanese outwitted the American delegates. Senator Robinson (Dem., Ark.) laid the article before the senate and had it published in the Congressional Record. "The initial fact that emerges from a survey of the situation today." Mr. Bywater wrote, "is the patent failure of the conference to achieve its main purpose, namely, to check the further expansion of sea armaments in any THERE are numerous indications that a tremendous development of water transportation in this country is at hand. High freight rates and the inability of the railroads to finance extensions and the additional equipment required by increased agricultural and industrial production are accelerating the development of other means of transportation, notably motortrucks and vessels. Reviving prosperity indicates that the day is not far distant when every carrier resource of the country will be taxed to the limit. The demand for adequate and cheap transportation then will be so great, it is calculated, as to carry the St. Lawrence seaway and the lakes to the gulf waterway projects to swift consumption, making the Great Lakes system the greatest waterway in the world in volume of commerce. Already Washington is being bombarded by the slipping interests with appeals to remove alleged rate discriminations that have grown up in favor of all rail transportation and against water or rail and water carriage. Such discriminations, it is asserted, are hampering the development of waterways to meet transportation needs. BIRTH CONTROL BILL TO EMACHMENT MEMBERS of the judiciary committees of the senate and house were deluged with letters from all parts of the country urging favorable action on Cummins-Kissel bill proposed by the Voluntary Parenthood league for the purpose of removing from the old Anthony Comstock law of 1873 the prohibition against circulation of contraceptive information. The pending bill is known as the birth control bill. Contrary to general expectations, organization opposition has not developed, according to its sponsors, who say the appeal for its adoption is growing steadily. Senator Cummins (Rep. Ia.) and Representative Kissel (Rep. N. Y.), who introduced the IT IS an open secret that when President Harding decided not to call an extra session of congress official Washington breathed a sigh of relief. To be sure, when he came to his decision, everything pointed to the failure of the pending ship subsidy bill, through the inability of its sponsors to bring it to a vote in the senate. The President, however, concluded that it would be a waste of time to have the bill taken up again by the new congress in an extra session. There were other reasons for the President's decision. He thought the country needed a long rest from congressional agitation. The rest is especially desired by business interests which have been uneasy over certain tendencies of a considerable portion of the membership of the senate and house regarded by the business interests as radical. Of special interest in this connection is the President's decision to take no further steps toward an investigation of the railroad situation during the congressional recess. As proposed originally by the Asso- and every shape or form. The result is that today, barely twelve months after the acceptance of the limitation treaty, a revival of ship building competition seems inevitable if the balance of power as regulated by that treaty is to be maintained. To state the case in a sentence: Japan, by diverting to the construction of cruisers and submarines no small part of the energy she formerly expended on capital ships, will soon be in possession of a fleet of auxiliary combatant vessels superior in some respects to that of any other power." Mr. Bywater says that as soon as Japan learned that the Washington government was contemplating a naval armament conference it set to work feverishly to complete the fortification of the Bonin islands under the strictest secrecy. By December, 1921, the work was finished. "Meanwhile," says Mr. Bywater, "the Washington conference had assembled and Admiral Baron Kato of the Japanese delegation had taken the first opportunity to inform his American colleagues that Japan regarded the abandonment of the Philippine and Guam fortifications as the condition precedent to negotiations for the reduction of her shipbuilding program." Julius Barnes, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, has called a conference of transportation and shipping interests to study the rate structure and other problems with a view to removing obstacles to the expansion of transit facilities. One of the most comprehensive presentations of the complaint of rate discrimination against Great Lakes traffic has been made to the federal coal commission by H. E. Smith, president of the Northwestern Coal Dock Operators' association, and Fred G. Hartwell of Chicago. They told the commission that except in the case of strikes, shortages and high prices of coal are due exclusively to lack of transportation. bills, have received only one adverse letter each up to the present. The protest to Senator Cummins came from John Sumner, successor to Anthony Comstock as head of the New York Society for Suppression of Vice. Comstock initiated the old statute which the Cummins-Kissel bill would amend by taking out the words that prohibit circulation of scientific knowledge as to the control of conception: Although the birth control advocates finally have succeeded in getting the bill before congress, there is a demonstration of official timidity there in dealing with this vexatious social issue in which multitudes of people are deeply interested. Members of both houses realize that the practice of birth control has been growing in this country, particularly among what are called the "upper classes." They know that books, magazine articles and studies have appeared in the last few years dealing with this subject. There is a Washington office in charge of energetic and zealous advocates. There is a campaign paper, called the Birth Control Herald, which is described as the official organ of the league. THERE WILL BE NO EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS Harding President. clation of Owners of Railroad Securities, the plan was to direct that all railway freight cars should be pooled under the control of a federal commission which should have authority to allocate them as conditions warranted according to localities, seasonal activities and other considerations. To recognize all the elements which his confeeres desired to have included in the commission's personnel would mean the appointment of a body of about 50 persons. After consideration of all the suggestions made the President came to the conclusion that the plan was not feasible and he therefore abandoned the whole scheme. MINORITY BLOCKS MUCH LEGISLATION FATE OF BIG BILLS IN DOUBT AND THOUSANDS OF SMALL MEASURES FAIL SENATE FILIBUSTER RULES Members of Both Parties In Upper House Fear to Change the Pernicious Methods of Procedure by Which Action Is Prevented. By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington. - Frigid weather conditions have prevailed recently in Washington. It has been colder than at any time during the season, but the lawmakers are warm, some of them hot in fact, particularly under the collar. The day of adjournment is at hand and the fate of some five or six big bills hangs in the balance. There will be some thirteen thousand small bills which are certain to fail, but as is the case every year nobody except the originators of these bills seems to know what they are and comparatively few seem to care. The situation in the senate has been one to attract the attention of the country. Unquestionably a majority of the senators would like to see certain legislation enacted before the end of the session, but the majority in the senate cannot have its way because, and it is an old story, the minority is able to block procedure and to prevent a vote. The latest bit of news concerning the situation in the senate is that between now and its next meeting there may be some attempt on the part of the leaders, through correspondence or otherwise, to agree on some means of curtailing debate in the upper house. This is in no way a partisan question. When the Democrats are in control a minority of Republican senators can prevent a vote, and when the Republicans are in control a minority of Democratic senators can prevent a vote, or a minority of the majority party, whichever it happens to be, can prevent a vote. Afraid to Change Their Rules. In legislative methods the United States Senate enjoys an isolation, but it may be that nobody, Democrat or Republican, will be willing to affirm that it is a splendid isolation. The senators of both parties fear to change the rules so that a vote can be forced because they see in such action a loss of prestige for the upper house, and more than this, a majority seem to fear apparently that any rule which might be adopted to shut off debate and to bring a vote might at some later day be used to the detriment of the men who today would like to see the rule in force. Whether a new plan can be formed during the coming recess to be put into operation at the next session of course is doubtful, but men here say that if things are to go on as they are the day will come when there will be no legislation at all outside of the supply bills, and that even these, vital as they are to the functioning of the government, may fall into the displeasure of two or three senators, and thereby be denied the right of passage. It is to be wondered if the country thoroughly realizes the amount of useless talk that the senate has indulged in at its present session or that it indulged in at the preceding session. Some of the senators seemingly are beginning to realize that the United States is bigger in these days than it was in the yesterdays fifty years ago. The demands for legislation necessary for good government are greater fifty-fold than they were in the years which are past, and yet the machinery for enacting is no greater and no more powerful than it was when virtually all that congress had to consider outside of the supply bills was one or two measures of seeming great importance. Rambling Talks on All Topics. When a certain senator, now deceased, used to bring one of his big manuscripts into the senate and lay it on his desk as a preparatory indication of an intention to read at length, the other senators used to sigh. Today the oldtime senator's manuscripts by comparison are as small scraps of paper compared to the bulky bundles of records and equally bulky bundles of other things which some senators pile upon their desks like unto mountains. A senator who is supposed to talk on a bill under consideration may mention it once and then he will read off or talk off on another subject not remotely akin to the matter under discussion and will do it solely to nullify the will of the majority and to prove to his constituents that he is "a vallant warrior for the right," and that not even the demand of the millions that he cease activity can stir him from his determination to serve the few hundreds, or as usually the case, to serve the interest of himself. There are no longer any party ties in the senate which have a binding effect. Senators call themselves Republicans and Democrats but a good many of them are neither. There are so many blocs representing that or this, that discussion, instead of being as it was in the old days, party discussion, is now likely to be fractional discussion, and as there are twenty factions and every member of each faction is long-winded, the discussion is twenty times lengthened. Capitol to Get Vacation Bath. Congress is about ready to start on its travels, some members homeward bound and some winter resort bound, but all rest bound. What happens to the city of Washington when congress is not in session? Well, the city gets a rest, but it does not like it, for business falls off when congress is away and even the capital of the nation likes both the appearance and the fact of financial prosperity. The big building on the hill, the capitol of the United States, remains open all through the vacations of congress. The great American sightseer must not be denied the privilege of gazing on the scenes where the solons, for that 'is what at times they are politely called, sit and legislate.' Things happen to the capitol, however, when congress is away. Every day in the year it gets a surface cleaning, inside at any rate, but in vacation time it comes in for what the small boy and perhaps some men call "a regular Saturday night soak." The capitol is a huge building. It is about one-seventh of a mile long and it has subterranean rooms and atlantic rooms, midway rooms, great corridors, galleries and great balls. It is some task to go over with paint brush, with cleaning cloth or with some other implement of cleanliness every foot of its flooring and of its walls, and every nook, corner and knob of its elaborate decorations. Occasionally virtually all the furniture in the halls of congress is changed; some of the old-time pieces are kept because of their historic value, but as everything in the capitol except the pictures and the statuary serve some utilitarian purpose, the wearing-out process goes on and the replenishing process must follow. It costs a good deal of money to keep the capitol clean and in repair, but probably no American citizen who has looked on the building will deny that the money is well spent, for the structure, take it all in all, is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the world. Some people perhaps still think that George Washington looked upon the capitol of the United States. He looked upon the cornerstone thereof because he laid it September 18, 1793. Later he saw the partly completed building, but he never saw it in its entirety, as it stood until the great additions were made to it in the years between 1850 and 1860. The capitol does not close up shop when congress does. Its document rooms and its general offices must be kept open because it does not follow because of the mere fact a legislator is at a distance he may not need information or printed matter of some kind to use in his speeches or in his writings, while he is still keeping up the semblance at least of being deeply interested in the affairs of his country. The press galleries of congress are open all through the vacations, but newspaper men rarely go near them. The house and senate press galleries which are thronged with writers during the sessions are for the main part as empty during the vacation season as a June bird's nest is in December. There is silence where there was noise, and perhaps it is wicked to say there is peace where there was turmoil. Must. Be Carefully Guarded. Must be carefully guarded. The capitol must be guarded at all times, guarded watchfully against fire whether congress is in session or not, and guarded particularly against thieves and even destructionists when the place is alive with activities and with the presence of the lawmakers. Americans forget readily. How many are there who remember that only a few years ago an anarchist exploded a bomb in the senate wing of the capitol? There are still to be seen marks of the fragments of the infernal machine which the destructionist discharged. Today no visitor to the gallery of either house of congress may carry a bundle to his seat with him. A lesson once taught to the guards of a great institution like this is a lesson that is never forgotten. If some woman trying to enter the public gallery of the senate today becomes indignant because a small package of luncheon which she has under her arm is taken away from her, she must lay the blame for her discomfiture on the man who some years ago tried to blow up a part of this building whose cornerstone was laid by George Washington. The congress is going, the President is going, the vice president is going, and many of the cabinet officers are going, and so perhaps with due regard for the greatness of American lawmakers it should be said in addressing the capital city "Thy glory has departed," but then maybe it has not departed, for the city of Washington architecturally and in its site is a glory unto itself. Roll of the Presidents. Do you have a hard time remembering the names of the presidents of the United States and the order in which they served? Maybe this rhymed list will help: John Quincy Adams, James Monroe, Jackson, Van Buren, "Tipppecnoe"; Tyler and Polk, the honor roll ran on: Taylor and Fillmore, Pierce and Bu- chanan; Abraham Lincoln, Johnson and Grant; Don't forget Hayes; and Garfield you can't. Arthur and Cleveland, Harrison, Second; William McKinley, martyr is reckoned. "Teddy" and Taft; then Wilson in war.

Many Unnecessary Motions Made in Washing Dishes. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Have you ever timed yourself washing dishes, or doing any of the other less agreeable tasks, to see whether there was any way of shortening the work? Or noticed what motions you make with your hands during this and other daily jobs? Or how many steps you take in connection with a meal, particularly when you are clearing the table and washing the china and other utensils used during the meal and its preparation? Every motion requires energy, and unnecessary motions use up unnecessary energy, leaving one fatigued with no real gain. And when actual minutes are saved, they can be put to more interesting uses than the routine of daily dishwashing. although the housewife evinces only a farm kitchen with veniences. She does not even a drain board, which would desirable if placed on her table now is. Right-hands ordinarily hold what washing in the left hand, the mop or dish cloth with so that when the dish is set on a board at the left they do not cross their hands. In spite of ple and obvious way of work, it is common to find offered for sale or for ren hand drain board, installed by some masculine architect not think out the process of work or consult any woman Hearing two drain boards. One of the best ways to observe yourself, says the United States Department of Agriculture, is to make a time, method and motion study of the different duties about the house. It will add zest to the housework, help to make one see measures necessary for reform, and make one ready to assist an inefficient neighbor. Starting with dishwashing: There are several ways of attacking the task. Try the way you are doing the work, observing as you go whether there are any motions made which could be eliminated, or if any part of the process could be shortened. For instance, those who possess dishwashing machines expect to leave the dishes to dry themselves after being washed and rinsed with very hot water. This principle can be applied perfectly well to dishes draining in a basket if a kettleful of clean, hot rinsing water is pooled over them. The process of wiping can then be entirely eliminated, except possibly for the glass and silver. Fewer towels are thus used, and the amount of washing of tea-towels is reduced. Look at the details in the above picture and see how many time and motion saving suggestions it contains. PREPARE GELATIN IN VARIETY OF DISHES Attractive Desserts Are Relished by Young and Old. Succulent Fruits and Fruit Ices Are Particularly Acceptable After Comparatively Heavy Meal Recipe for Pudding. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Gelatin can be used in the preparation of a great variety of attractive desserts which are liked by young as well as by old and are for this reason convenient for occasional use in families where adults and children must both be provided for. Gelatin is used in such small amounts that it cannot be relied upon to furnish much nourishment. It takes up a large amount of water, however, and forms bulky or light desserts. Such desserts, which include also succulent fruits and fruit ices, are particularly acceptable after a comparatively heavy meal. Gelatin is a good means of introducing fruit juices, and to some extent also vegetable juices like those of tomatoes and cucumbers, into the diet. These juices contain vitamins, some of which are probably destroyed by heat, so that it is well to know a variety of ways of serving them raw. One of these ways is in the form of gelatin desserts. The following recipe is recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture. 1 tablespoonful gran- $\frac{3}{4}$ cup sugar. ulated gelatin. $\frac{1}{4}$ cup lemon juice. $\frac{1}{4}$ cup cold water. Whites of three 1 cup boiling water. eggs. Soak gelatin in the cold water and then dissolve it in hot water. After adding the sugar and lemon juice, strain and set aside to cool, stirring occasionally. When it is quite thick, beat with an egg beater. Add the well-beaten egg whites and continue to beat until it is stiff enough to hold its shape. Mold or pile by spoon- fills on a glass dish. Serve with a soft custard made with the egg yolks. Variety can be obtained in this dish by substituting fruit juices for all or part of the water. Fruit juices like those of grapes and berries that are not injured in flavor by heat can be used in place of the water for dissolving the gelatin, though this may destroy some of the vitamins. although the housewife evidently has only a farm kitchen with few conveniences. She does not even possess a drain board, which would be very desirable if placed on her left where the table now is. Right-handed persons ordinarily hold what they are washing in the left hand, and apply the mop or dish cloth with the right, so that when the dish is set on a drain board at the left they do not have to cross their hands. In spite of this simple and obvious way of doing the work, it is common to find in houses offered for sale or for rent a right-hand drain board, installed probably by some masculine architect who did not think out the process of doing the work or consult any woman about it. Having two drain boards, a drain board at the left and a level shelf at the right-hand side of the sink for stacking the soiled dishes is even more convenient than having only one drain board. Many Steps Saved. Many Steps Saved. There is only one tap shown in the picture, and the large kettle on the stove suggests that the housekeeper has to heat all the water she needs. Running hot water is a great boon, but not available in all homes. Steps have been saved in this instance by placing the sink fairly near the stove, and by bringing all the dishes from the dining table into the kitchen on the tea-cart. Utensils that hang up are put on hooks on the wall right over the sink; and evidently all the pots and pans were washed before the meal was served, which greatly shortens the time for the entire job of dish-washing. The sink is several inches higher than the table, so that the housewife does not have to stoop over it. When the clean dishes are set in the drain basket the task will be done, as nearly all of them will probably be wanted on the table for the next meal. If the china is to be put away, a set of shelves within reach of the sink would save many steps. WHOLESOME FOOD FOR CHILD Where Given Quart of Milk and Butter on Bread Avoid All Kinds of Fatty Foods. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) There is more than an ounce of fat (at least two and one-half level tablespoonfuls) in a quart of whole milk. If the healthy child is given a quart of milk, and has butter on his bread, he gets enough fat, and that which he receives is in wholesome form. It is Milk Is Favored for Child. well, therefore, the United States Department of Agriculture believes, not to give children such fatty foods as pastry, fried meats, doughnuts or rich cakes, as experience has shown that in these the fats are not in so good a form for them. If the child is constipated, the occasional use of cream or salad oil is desirable, for fat in abundance is laxative. All Around the House Stale slices of bread may be cut into squares and fried with bacon. Launder white silk in lukewarm water, never hot, and it will not become yellow. Cake that has become dry may be crisped in the oven and used as the foundation for a dainty fruit and cream dessert. The Kitchen Cabinet (@, 1922, Western Newspaper Union.)

Cut bread into rounds and butter, spread with the white sauce heaping it on in the center. Place the bread in a hot oven to toast. Ham may be used in place of the cheese if so desired. If one is fond of Chinese cookery there are many dishes which are simple and easy to prepare. The following is a variation of chop suey: Take a half pound of round steak, cut in half-inch cubes and fry in a little fat, add one cupful of diced celery, season well, add water and cook until the celery is tender, season with a teaspoonful of soye sauce. This is found in most markets and is not expensive. Serve hot with hot boiled rice. When a world of men could not prevail with all their oratory, yet hath a woman's kindness overruled A dainty dish to serve for a company luncheon is the following: Sweetbreads With Orange Sauce.—Soak a pair of sweetbreads in cold water for twenty minutes; put over the heat in plenty of cold water.

Cook until smooth, add the chopped mixture, cover and simmer for ten minutes. Before serving add the yolk of an egg, beaten with two tablespoonfuls of cream, one teaspoonful of lemon juice; stir this into the hot mixture and pour into timbale cups, crustades or into a pretty deep dish.

Pretty Things that are made at Home IF THERE are any civilized women, with souls so dead that they do not enthuse over pretty things or daunty things, they have lost one of their chief charms. But it would be hard to locate any such person. No matter how busy or prosale life may turn out to be, it is about impossible to kill off the eternal feminine love of finery. It is an instinct to love adornment and niceties of apparel, shared by all the world of women. Here is a little group of pretty, inexpensive, and easily made, ribbon sachets, in gay colors and alluringly CIVIL XV UNIC scented. Bits of ribbon or silk provide the wherewithal to make the plain squares, meant for pinning in the lingerie or dress, to add the illusive charm of faint perfume to the presence of the wearer. Old ribbons or silks, raveled out, may be used for the padding that carries the scented powder, or cotton will answer to fill the sachets. A half dozen small sachets in as many colors, are slipped on a large safety pin, bearing a rosette of baby ribbon. Each little sachet is provided with a tiny safety pin of its own, thrust through ```markdown ``` THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY M TYPICAL SPORTS TYPE SPRING SUIT one corner or in the center, to be used to pin it to whatever garment is chosen for it. At the top of the group a pinwheel sachet, of printed ribbon, is formed of four triangular pieces tacked together at one point. Each triangle is made of two pieces of ribbon sewed together, with a small opening left for inserting the cotton, or the silk ravelings, containing the scented powder.

That new order of joyous clothes for daytime and outdooring, which are usually classed as sports types. --- reflects the general refinement of the styles in all branches of apparel. There is a demand for white, or for mixtures of a color with white, in which white predominates. Even in bold, printed silks the combinations are of white with tan or beige, and white with green. Tan and beige are in high favor for this kind of apparel, and color contrasts are used with much restraint. Plain and striped flannels and other lightweight cloths are employed for skirts which are nearly always plaited, either in narrow box plaits or side ```markdown ``` plats. This insures a slender shouette but plenty of room for comfortable walking. With these platted skirts, blouses and jacquettes of many varieties are worn. In a world of printed silks one would expect to find just the sort of material for these semi-sports blouses, and no one who looks in this direction will be disappointed. Colors may be vivid or sedate—the printed silks are made in a wealth of designs. In the illustration a typical spring suit of the sports type is shown with blouse of printed silk, ] having a soft rolled collar and a Deauville kerchief about the waist. It is worn over a platted skirt of plain cloth. White or black afford a good choice for skirts to be worn with printed silk blouses since either of them provides a background that will not quarrel with any colors in the silk.
