DON'T BE SATISFIED
DON'T BE SATISFIED
Editor Advises Negroes to Clamor for Things Beneficial While on Earth.
THE question is often asked, Is the Negro easily satisfied? Does he exhibit a spirit of submissiveness? Is he satisfied with his condition in the civilized world? Does he realize the true relation he occupies in America as compared with other groups? Is he different from other people to the extent that he can be happy while thousands of his people are burned alive and the other twelve million suffering from discrimination? Is he incapable of making a place for himself despite the handicaps and barriers erected to bar his progress? Why should the Negro glory in his humble spirit when every other civilized group admires the fighting spirit; the do or die, sink or swim characteristic? Does he not know that he has power, if rightly used, sufficient to change his present situation? Are Negroes unable to produce leaders who will teach them more about living today than dying tomorrow?
We believe Negroes are not satisfied. They should not be contented. This spirit of, "Even though you slay me yet will I trust you," should be discarded as unfit for intelligent men to possess. Instead of rejoicing in our obility to be happy although we are suppressed, should be cast into oblivion as un sound, and in its place should come an attitude of dissatisfaction which will make us stand up as men with our faces set like a flint to attain the greatest amount of justice. The spirit of humility which characterized the Negro may have been an asset during slavery, but now it is the worst cursse our people can have. Every man, every race that has made progress made it not because they were contented but rather because they were not satisfied. The victories that we have achieved came about because some of us were not contented with our former state. We wanted education because we were not satisfied without it, consequently illiteracy has decreased from 90 to 23 per cent.
The Negro group must awaken to its power and then assert it. Not that arrogant super-sensitive, chip on the shoulder disposition, but rather the attitude of commanding the respect that is due all men. We once believed everything comes to him who waits. The trouble with this doctrine is you are likely to be dead before you get it. Take a cursory glance at the history of civilization and you will find that the greatest asset anyone can have is being dissatisfied.
A large number of us like to talk about the wonderful progress we have made in the last fifty-eight years. We have no time to think about the things we have done. The things that have been accomplished were attained by our forefathers, who had practically no opportunity. If we don't do twice as much, we haven't done anything. Members of the white race try to lull us to sleep by telling up we have performed greater wonders than any other group. While this may be true, so long as we suffer it is a waste of energy to think about it except as an inspiration to higher and greater achievements.
Our preachers and teachers must deal in facts, preach more about a bank account than the pearly gates; more about thrift than the great beyond, for true Christianity is embodied in right living while on earth.
VOL. XXIX.
We spend our time in play while our people suffer. There is no hope for us as a race so long as we are contented with a full stomach and a place to sleep. If our leaders are satisfied in pilling up dollars for themselves regardless of the starving masses we are doomed and all is utter darkness. We have power within ourselves to in a large measure solve our present problem if we would only become sufficiently dissatisfied with our present status. For fear I haven't made my meaning clear—Regardless of what position you occupy, don't be satisfied.—Philadelphia Tribune.
Poor San Francisco Tots of Negro Decent Become Millionaires Over Night
Government Grant to Indian Mother Turns Out to Be Rich Oil Land
(San Francisco Chronicle)
(San Francisco Chronicle)
San Francisco, Cal.-A lease for a quarter section of land in Grady county, Oklahoma, given by the Government to an Indian girl fifteen years ago will be the means of making her two small children, Earl and Cleo Adams, millionaires. The lease was left to the children by the mother upon her death six years ago, but was considered worthless until oil was discovered recently on adjoining property. An oil syndicate then took the land for development, and it is believed that it will yield a fortune for the two children.
The father of the two potential millionaires is Jesse Adams, a Colored janitor, at 920 Post street. Cleo and Earl live with their aunt and uncle at 1350 Sutter street. The boy is 12 and the girl 8 years of age.
Their mother was Viola Thompson, a member of the Choctaw tribe of Indians. The discovery that her land would prove valuable was made yesterday and the oil lease approved by Superior Judge Dunne, at the instance of Adams' attorney, Henry G. W. Dinkelspiel.
The money which the Adams family hopes to derive from the land will lift them from the ranks of being merely the children of the janitor of an apartment house, and put them into the millionaire class. As yet, little Cleo's head has not been turned by the prospect of fine clothes which have been promised her by her aunts and her father. She still clings to her desire to become a trained nurse. Earl on the other hand, intends to put his share of the fortune into the bank and draw upon it for an expensive education. He then aspires to become a salesman.

Colored Man and Wife Jailed After Mob Attack Is Charge
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York, is investigating the case of James Gordon and his wife, Mattie Gordon, of Louisa, Virginia, who were jailed, it is charged, after a mob attack in which a white man was killed.
The trouble which occurred in February, is said to have arisen over a piece of land claimed by both Mr. Gordon and the white man, whose location had been settled some months before by a local court. The white man is said to have persisted in moving the line fence on Gordon's land, and finally in a dispute which arose, one of the white man's employés was shot and killed.
A letter from Mrs. Gordon states that the white man and his forces had threatened to kill her and her husband. The trial is scheduled to take place at the Louisa, Virginia, court house between the 14th and the 21st of May.
Death Summons Fisk Univ. Dean
Dr. Cornelius W. Morrow
Dies of Pneumonia at
the Age of 78.
Nashville, Tenn., April 6.—The old guard is passing fast. Another faithful friend of the Negro in America, Dr. Cornelius Wortendyke Morrow, died at his home here Wednesday night. For twenty years he was one of the most consecrated faculty members of Fisk University and champions of the higher education of colored people. He died as he lived, always faithful to the ideals and honored traditions of American Christian civilization.
The lamented dean emeritus of Fisk University had a wide and sympathetic acquaintance with a large majority of the foremost men and women of the race. He was known as "a member of the old guard" of simon pure American believing in brotherhood, love and service as fundamentals in the affairs of the nation affecting all races of men. The doors of his heart and mind were always open to friends of the Negro, but ever closed to enemies of the race as enemies of mankind. A host of friends of both races mourn his loss and will ever treasure memories of him.
Colored Film Actor Sacrifices Career for Education
Long Beach, Cal., March 31.—(Pacific News Bureau.) How many 13-year old boys would prefer going to school in preference to drawing an attractive salary of $100 per week or more as a film actor?
Well, this is just what Leon Perdue a little colored boy living on Prospect Avenue did recently when he was offered a contract calling for a nice fat salary as a juvenile actor for one of the large Hollywood film producers.
Leon, who is 13 years old and a sophomore in the Pholy High School, began his film career several years ago as an extra working with Baby Marie Osburne and the well known colored juvenile comedy star, Ernest Morrison, better known as "Sunshine Sammy." Since then he has played in a number of successful films, the most notable of them being Booth Tarkington's "Penrod."
Although Leon and his mother are by no means wealthy and a film contract would bring in sufficient money to place them in very comfortable circumstances; they feel that a good school education is by far more valuable for Leon at the present than a film contract, no matter how attractive.
Leon, however, is ambitious and as a page in connection with the exhibit of the Hoover Vacuum Sweeper Company at the big industrial exposition being held in Long Beach, he is accumulating a bank account without sacrificing his educational training.
Pays $3,000 to Get Southern Laborers
Savannah, Ga., April 4—J. L. DeVaux rather startled the city marshal's office Saturday when he walked in and turned over $2,500 in exchange for a license to open an agency here to recruit labor for outside points. He also paid the $1,000 required by the State for such a business. Offices were opened Monday at 605 West Broad street and scores of laborers wishing to go elsewhere for work, have been besieging the labor office ever since. The office is recruiting labor for an aluminum mine in North Carolina. Several shipments of labor were carried off this week.

Hand Writing and Water Mark on Paper Prove His Guilt.
Baltomire, Md.—Rev. Cyrus W. H. Briddle, Kent Island M. E. minister, with a perfect record of many years' work in the Delaware Conference, was found guilty of sending obscene letters through the mail Friday.
Monday, he was sentenced to serve 18 months in the Federal penitentiary. The jury was out half an hour and the verdict followed a trial covering two days in the U. S. District Court and attracting the attention of large numbers from Kent Island, where the women lived who received the letters, as well as here in Baltimore, where the accused had a large number of influential friends.
Lived Exemplary Life
One of the outstanding features of the trial was the large amount of evidence brought out by the defense that established the fact that Rev. Briddell enjoyed a most enviable reputation in all of the places he had been stationed since his advent into the ministry.
Dr. John O. Spencer, president of Morgan College, testified on the witness stand that he had known Rev. Briddell 12 years, covering his student days at Princess Anne Academy, and his activities in the ministry, and knew him to be a good moral man and would not believe him guilty of such an act.

Montgomery, Ala., April 4—Efforts of Dr. R. R. Moton and others to place all colored physicians and nurses in the new $1,000,000 War Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee are being opposed by local whites who wish to give the position to white physicians and nurses.
FOREIGN
The plague is raging in almost all the provinces of India. The statistics for the week ending March 24 give 9,000 new cases for all India, of which 8,000 were fatal. Three hundred persons involved in the anti-Jewish outbreak in Warsaw have been arrested. The large number of wounded Jews has served to intensify the excitement in the Jewish quarter. The explosion of a time bomb destroyed the lock of the Dortmund-Ems canal, near Herne. The canal was blocked, seriously interfering with the complicated inland waterway traffic in the Ruhr.
Liam Lynch, chief of staff of the Irish irregulars, has been captured, it has been officially announced in Dublin. Lynch was captured by the Free State forces at Knocknasalen, near Newcastle, after an engagement in which he was seriously wounded. Special dispatches received in Havana from Camaguey, Cuba, report that the destruction of sugar cane by fire still continues throughout the district.

A tall, slender, olive-skinned girl, who, in the legends of Italy, was "born to be a soldier's bride," fulfilled the prophecy when the Princess Yolanda, eldest daughter of King Victor Emmanuel and Queen Elena, was married to Count Calvi di Bergolo, a war veteran and a captain in the Italian army.
Domestic difficulties which have piled up steadily since inauguration of the Bonar Law administration confronted the government as parliament reassembled in London. With 100,000 workers on strike and the probability that a half million building trades may be added to this number, labor unrest presents, perhaps, the most serious difficulty.
Only athletics in which the element of sport predominates will make up the program for the 1924 Olympic games which are to be held in the Colombes stadium in the suburbs of Paris. Many of the events of a non-sporting character, which seriously handicapped the American teams in previous games because the Americans had no entrants in them, have been eliminated from the official program, which has been published in Rome.

Obscurity for William Z. Foster, America's most prominent exponent of Soviet Russia's regime, or notority that might imperil democracy in this country depends—according to the American Federation of Labor, as represented by Mathew Woll of Chicago. vice president—upon the decision of Michigan officials to retry the radical on the "Red" charges on which the jury last week disagreed or to abandon prosecution.

Benton Stables, Carson City Nevada, a historic landmark, best known as the starting place of Horace Greeley on his famous stagecoach ride with "Hank" Monk, is about to pass. In late years the building has fallen into decay and was recently condemned.
Six months in the county jail is the punishment meted out to Miss Ella Wolfe, 18 years old, of Salem, Oregon, who was driver of an automobile that ran down and fatally injured a woman. Miss Wolfe applied for a parole, but the court refused to consider it.
A dispute over a land deal at Turlock, Calif., resulted in the probably fatal shooting of Mrs. Joseph Curtner Meyer, and the suicide of Benjamin Morgan, who shot her. Morgan is alleged to have set fire to Mrs. Meyer's home and then laid in wait until she came to the door.
William J. Gloria has resigned as legal adviser to Samuel F. Rutter, federal prohibition director for California, as a protest against recent alleged "rough house" methods of prohibition agents and what he terms Rutter's failure to punish agents guilty of unwarranted offenses, according to a story appearing in the San Francisco Examiner.
Investigation of the circumstances surrounding the slaying of Benjamin G. Ballantyne, son of a prominent Salt Lake City family and formerly teller at a Salt Lake City bank, was continued by the police following their announcement that Mariner F. Browning, nephew of John M.

Famed as the "Rose City," Portland, Ore., is in danger of losing that title unless greater activity is taken by the people in cultivation of the flower, according to organizations which have started a movement to stimulate interest. The Chamber of Commerce and the Portland Parent-Teacher Association are back of this effort, one of the first steps being the formation of rose clubs among the children.
WASHINGTON
President Harding says political campaign talk is permature and threatens to abandon plans for Alaska trip because of it.
President Harding believes that if a reduction is made in federal taxes it should apply all along the line and not solely to surtaxes.
Appealing to the Republican members of Congress for unity of action and to the administration for co-operation, Senator Wesley L. Jones of Washington, who led the administration fight for the shipping bill recently, issued a statement declaring that unless the majority functions in the next Congress it will be discredited.
Oil companies wholesaling gasoline can furnish retailers tank and pump equipment under an agreement that the equipment be used exclusively for handling the gasoline of the company owning the equipment, the Supreme Court recently held in cases brought by the federal trade commission. The radical tax revision program as outlined by Representative Frear, Republican, Wisconsin, was assailed by Representative Hawley, Republican, Oregon, a member of the house ways and means committee. "If it is desired to help the farmer and laboring man, an increase in the tax burden on business certainly will not do it," said Hawley. "I cannot figure just what the theory is on which these proposals are based."
"About $100,000,000 in War Savings Stamps and certificates due and payable on Jan. 1, 1923, are still outstanding," according to Lew Wallace, Jr., director of the United States government savings system. "That means loss of interest for more than three months, although the government has done everything possible to induce the people to exchange those stamps for the new treasury savings certificates."
His vacation ended, President Harding has returned to Washington and has turned his mind toward the cares of problems of state. The departure of the presidential party from Augusta, Ga., brought to a close a vacation of five weeks for the chief executive, four weeks of which were spent in Florida and one in Augusta.
President Harding's forthcoming tour of the Middle West and Pacific coast will start about June 30, when he plans to leave Washington for Alaska, It has been announced officially at the White House.
STATE CAPITOL NEWS LETTER
The "Blue Sky" bill by Senator Girard and Representative Dean was passed by the State House of Representatives on second reading.
The boxing bill, designated as House bill No. 117, by Representative A. Thomas Pollock, Republican of Denver and Robert D. Elder, Democrat of Leadville, was killed on final reading a few days ago.
A second bill passed in committee was S. B. 411, by Senator McFadzean, calling for a separate board of control for the Gunnison Normal School, now controlled by the board of trustees of the Greeley Normal School.
A bill on Senate second reading is S. B. 42, by Senator Jones, calling for the erection on the State Fair grounds of a building especially for the boys' and girls' clubs. It is intended for the youngsters to have the exhibits in this one building.
There are some three score bills buried in various committees of both houses and the traders in both branches have been busy seeking to get bills out. This activity on the part of the legislators is an indication of the closing days of the session.
The Senate and House adjourned after reading the Journal in respect to the memory of William H. Crooke, representative from San Juan county, who died in Denver. The House heard a eulogy by Representative Hood and appointed a committee to draft resolutions.
The bill appropriating $75,000 for the erection and maintenance of a state normal school at Alamosa was signed by Governor Sweet. The institution will be named the Adams State Normal School in honor of State Senator William H. Adams of Alamosa, who was instrumental in having the bill passed. Reports that have been current that the senate finance committee was slashing appropriations for state institutions were verified when the first batch of bills from the committee came in, showing a slash of more than $100,000 made on five bills. Other appropriation bills will share a like fate, it was said.
The bill fathered by Senator David Elliott, Republican of Colorado Springs, calling for a showing of a tax receipt before a license is issued for a motor vehicle has been signed by the governor and now is a law. Under the law the clerk issuing auto licenses may call for the tax receipt, showing that the tax of the previous year has been paid on the vehicle before a license for the new year is granted.
House bill 423, by Representative Wilkins and Bond, known as the gasoline bill and providing for raising the tax from one to two cents that has been juggled back and forth in committee of the whole for the last three weeks, finally got through on second reading. It was amended to make the tax one cent and the division of the money 50-50 between the state highway department and the various counties.
Governor Sweet has no further statement to make concerning the written demand of certain Republicans for an apology for the statement made by the governor that "Republican legislators who voted for the Lamber consolidation bill had asked him for a conference to urge him to veto the measure." This announcement was made by Governor Sweet. He said: "This is the end of the matter. If the statement issued by my secretary, Hale Smith, was not an apology, I don't know what is."
The Senate adopted the resolution from the House asking for a federal trade investigation of the sugar industry in northern Colorado, which puts the question of approval or rejection up to the governor. This is a move on the part of the northern Colorado beet farms to participate "50-50" in the net proceeds of the sale of sugar from the factories.
The final settlement of the crowded conditions of the Pueblo insane asylum will call for the purchase of the Woodcroft sanitarium, founded by Dr. Hubert Work, but sold by him to two Colorado Springs men. The price will be $160,000, which will include fifty acres of ground, five brick buildings, completely equipped, $10,000 worth of cattle and farm equipment.
The redrafted Lambert bill, consolidation measure of the Republican party, was vetoed by Gov. William E. Sweet. In submitting the veto to the House of Representatives the governor appended a statement in which he gave nine reasons for his action. This ends all attempts on the part of either party to consolidate and abolish boards, bureaus and commissions at the state house.
The disposal of the Lambert bill will hasten adjournment. Adjournment was originally scheduled for April 10, but along came the Lambert bill, passing both branches, and thereby tying up the long and general appropriations for the biennial period of 1923 and 1924.
The bill to abolish the state board of capitol managers was passed by the Republican majority, though two Democrats, Senator McFadzean and Senator John J. Tobin, Montrose, voted for it. The other Democrats voted against it.
CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS
Longmont.—The common people's ticket won in the city election at Longmont, losing one alderman only. Mayor Hays had a controversy with the chief of police, William Callaway, some time ago and one of the issues was whether Calaway should be retained in his position.

Pueblo.—That southern Colorado is a unit for consolidation of the Santa Fé and the Denver & Rio Grande Western railroads, and is strongly opposed to the consolidation of the Denver & Rio Grande with the Burlington, was brought out at a public meeting here when representatives of Denver, Colorado Springs, Pueblo and other communities of the state aired their views on railroad consolidation before representatives of the State Public Utilities Commission.
Denver.—Federal and city officers arrested Dr. Zdenko von Dworzak, who says he formerly was a physician to Kaiser Wilhelm, II, in his offices in the Empire building, and a short time later took into custody twenty-five men and women alleged to have been visiting the doctor's office to obtain narcotics. All are charged with violation of the Harrison narcotics act.

that, in restricting the President's au-

than 50 per cent, congress has enacted
a legal delegation of power.
Representative Tyson (Dem., Ala.)
who formerly was chief justice of the
Supreme court of his state, declares
the flexible provisions of the tariff law
are unconstitutional,
“Such provisions never before were
incorporated in any bill,” he said.
“These provisions attempt to confer
elastic powers upon the executive, The
Constitution clearly imposes upon the
legislative department of the govern-
ment the power to ‘lay and collect
taxes, duties, imposts, and excise, to
pay the debts and provide for the
common defense and welfare of the
United States.’ That power can only
be exercised by the congress and is
nondelegable.
“The prescribing of the rates of
duties upon imported articles is the
exercise of a function of legislative
power denied to the executive under
the Constitution.”

before the French revolution for Made-

secretary of war is authorized to ap-

three persons, who shall serve without

“Section 2. ‘That the expense of the
‘Investigation herein directed to be
made shall be paid from the appropria-
tion ‘Contingencies of the Army."
Senator King of Utah wanted to
know “if ultimately there will not
evolye upon the federal government
considerable expense for the main-
tenance of this park.’ It was ex-
plained to him at considerable length
that that will depend entirely upon the
action of congress. ‘This bill merely
directs the secretary of war to inquire
into the feasibility of the project and
to. prepare plans, which will be re
ported to congress for whatever action
It may see fit to take. Congress may
or may not adopt those plans; it may
or may not establish the park. Of
course, if a military park should be
established at Yorktown, there might
possibly be some expense attached, or
it might be arranged that that expense
should be borne by various patriotle
societies.
‘Then Senator King made a nice little
speech on economy and resumed his
seat. Thereupon the bill was passed.
‘Then congress passed the 3 per cent
law, the effect of which was to limit
to 360,000 the number of the aliens per-
mitted to enter the United States in
any one year, and by so doing cut down
the revenues from vise fees to about
$2,500,000 annually.
‘Meantime, other governments prompt-
ly followed the lead of the United
States by charging American citizens
the same fees for viseing thelr
passports that the American diplomatic
and consular officers abroad, under the
act of June, 1920, were obliged to
charge for viseing the passports of
their nationals. A few countries ex-
ceeded the American rate.
"The effect, of course, has been that
an American abroad 1s obliged to pay
from five to ten times as much for his
yises In any European country as an
Buropean making the same Journey.
‘Again, since an American traveling
abroad visits on a conservative aver
age five countries, he pays $50 In vise
fees where an European visiting the
United States pays $10 for his Amerl-
can vise, which, plus the cost of pass-
port, brings his expenditure to $11 or
$12 as against the initial $10 pald by
the American for his passport and $50
to forelgn governments for vise fees,
a total of $60, which can be, and is,
incigased by another $10 for each ad»
ditional country visited.

“FOUR NEGROES”
AST week a cyclone or tornade swept through several southern states.
It gained in fury and destructiveness as it moved southward to the
great gulf, carrying death and ruin with it in its merciless onsweep.
Reaching the state of Louisiana the storm seemed to gather momentum
for its last fierce attack. Towns were destroyed and human lives snuffed
out in a twinkling. The southern correspondent of the Associated Press
felt that the world would be interested in knowing of such a catastrophe
and so presumed to broadcast the facts, as far as his cramped vision would
admit. We read of houses, and barns being wrecked beyond repair, of the
great loss of live stock, of automobiles being overturned and of churches
being swept away. Then came the names and addresses of white citizens
who lost their lives and the gruesome death list was closed by an observa-
tion that “there were also four Negroes killed.” Nothing more than this
simple, incomplete reference was deemed necessary by the correspondent
who Was careful to list the names and addresses of all white persons that
were killed. Just ‘four Negroes” that’s all. The practice has become
general throughout the South in late years, and if we have a fixed status
at all, in the minds of the southern white man, it is that of beasts, to be
mentioned and referred to only in herds, except when accused of crime.
Perhaps in the vast scheme of things there is a great book upon which is
recorded the whole of human events. If so we opine, that the names of
the “four Negroes” denied a place amid the chronicles of man on earth,
will be placed infinitely above those whose Satanic prejudices carry them
to the extremes of journalistic criminality.
SOME QUESTIONS AND SOME ANSWERS
N THE first page of this issue The COLORADO STATESMAN repro-
O duces an article from the Philadelphia Tribune containing many valu-
able suggestions and putting forth some questions that at first blush
seem somewhat puzzling. ‘The character of the suggestions and the nature
of the questions gives evidence of the seriousness of thought being given
these days to the many problems our group must face and grapple with.
Let us consider a few of the questions asked. “Is the Negro easily satis-
fied?” ‘To this we must answer yes, entirely too easily satisfied in his
dealings with the white man; neyer satisfied and always suspicious in his
dealings with members of his own race. “Is he satisfied with his condi-
tion In the civilized world?” No, and this applies to the uneducated, il-
literate masses, fully as much as to the educated, progressive Negro. The
point of difference is that one has no initiative and thus appears inactive,
while the other has a larger outlook and more intelligent line of attack.
But it would be-difficult to find a Negro on the American continent fully
satisfied with his condition, and it would be a sad, sad misfortune if he
were. Never was there a truer utterance than that of the immortal Bard
of Avon who declared that “Contentment is mortal’s chiefest enemy.”
Another question: “Why should the Negro glory in his humble spirit when
every other civilized group admires the fighting spirit, the do or die, sink
or swim characteristic?” This is a very pointed question and the answer
cannot be easily arrived at. ‘The issue is decidedly debatable whether or
not the Negro is possessed of enough of the spirit of humility as to con-
stitute an element of glory. We believe that the Negro is finding himself,
that the FIGHTING SPIRIT begins to grow apace with our advancement,
that meek submission to the meagre crusts to be handed out by other
groups is no longer possible. Strangely enough and almost paradoxical,
the more heavily the hand of oppression is laid upon us, the more our
fighting spirit arouses within. And it is for this reason that we are be-
ginning to realize our strength and the rightful use of it. Organization
is the key to the whole situation, and it is through organization that our
power is now becoming manifest. It is easy enough to ask questions and
often times quite another thing to answer them; but let no one despair of
the present day Negro, let no one presume that we will longer meekly turn
the other cheek when slapped on one side, We have learned to hit back.
God give us power.
DENVER’S ONWARD MARCH
ITH the slogan 500,000 population for Denver by 1930, comes the
W reminder of improvement in industries, housing accommodation,
hotels and everything else that will command and attract the at-
tention of the nation at large, eventually placing our city on a higher
plane and in a better sphere of usefulness. In spite of all the threats,
abuses, calumnies and other despicable things that have been hurled at
our city and those who are placed in authority of its government, yet
there seems to be a phase of progress which commends itself to outsid-
ers, as we notice according to latest statistics, not only an increase in popu-
lation, but a decided improvement in health and domestic economy; and
we often wonder how easily and quickly some of the people forget the
efforts put forth by city officials, leading business men and others to
maintain the prestige established by a city during the several years of its
growth and its competition with larger cities possessing all the facilities
for advancement and development.
IMPORTANT ELECTIONS NEXT MONTH: During the month of May
the people of Denver will be called upon to elect a Mayor, nine Council-
men, an Election Commissioner and three members of the Board of Educa-
tion. Our reason for reminding our coolred voting element in this detailed
manner {s for the sole purpose of getting them thoroughly informed on
these important events, which contribute to our betterment or our detri-
ment. Our people must engage to the fullest in all educational interests,
as our standing in this country and our advancement in civilization will
only be recognized when we can compete as a whole favorably with other
races. The laws of God and nature compel a difference between the edu-
cated and uneducated, and while there are some of us who have been
deprived of such advantages, (whether voluntarily or involuntarily) now
that the means present themselves to accomplish the ends, we should be
particularly interested in these two elections—the School Board and the
Mayor and Council of Denver, which will be worth so much to us if we
give our whole support to men of broad shoulders, who being stalwart in
mind and having the courage of their conviction can bear the unjust criti-
cisms of a public, when they endeavor to engage constructive methods
and carry out plans beneficial to a community even at a cost of self-sacri-
fice and self-denial, We fully remember the expression—“There’s so much
good in the worst ofsus and so much bad in the best of us, that it ill af-
fords any of us to talk about the rest of us,” and being cognizant of the
fact of public officials being generally the target of “public marksmen,”
the COLORADO STATESMAN in its advice to the people, makes it clear
that the candidates for election to these important positions must be
studied, not from an angle, but as the mariner puts it, from all points of
the compass. ‘They must express their views and give their platforms of
their belief in fair treatment for the people in common. A greater Den-
ver, a march onward, a greatly increased population, well-equipped schools
and a continuation of good city government can only be accomplished by
your obligation to truth, honesty and good will to all men; by your selec-
tion of MEN, REAL MEN—Men whom we can be proud of, and who will
in their leadership stand and fall by us, and remembering the pride that
other races have in themselves, we will prove to Denver, Colorado, and
the whole country that we also possess pride—that pride which will es-
tablish the fact that our use of the franchise is not in vain and our votes
at the elections next month will certify our being in the ONWARD MARCH
of our beautiful and progressive city.

Subconscious Mind of American Tells Him

By EMILE COUE, in New York World.

keep abreast of the swift national movement. Without a doubt this is
the result of suggestion driven into the mind from childhood up. School
books teach it and it becomes auto-suggestion.
The subconscious mind of the American man tells him imperiously
that he must not tarry. He has no time for leisure; the nation must be
built, and if his own little wheel stops it may check the advance of the
whole machine, and so the American man is the hardest worker in the
world. A pioneer and a slave to a civilization in the making he condemns
himself to a premature old age.
And too often he takes them to bed with him. His family life is
sacrificed despite his naturally affectionate disposition. Generally a
devoted husband and father, the American is only too willing to leave
the evening of his home and children to his wife. He will send his whole
family away for a holiday or a change regardless of the expense, for
money means little to him. He knows subconsciously that he will earn
as much as is necessary. That is one of tho secrets of his success in busi-
ness—auto-suggestion of success. The idea of success is in the blood of
the nation, for the nation itself is a success—the most gigantic success
history has ever recorded.

‘Costly Highways Must Distribute Their Benefits
| and Costs Equitably
' By W. H. FINLEY, President Chicago and North Western
I do not believe that good highways throughout the country are
going to ruin the railroads. On the contrary, I think that the more
means there are for traveling and shipping the more traveling and ship-
ping increases. When trolley lines were first built there was a hue and cry
that they would take all the business from the railroads. Nothing like
that happened. ‘They merely created more business for everybody.
The magnificent system of highways that have been and are being
built in Illinois will soon make this state one of the greatest transporta-
tion powers in the Union. Properly built, regulated, and maintained,
they will tend to almost remake our state physically.
The people must realize, however, that all final results are based on
taxation. We must see that these costly highways distribute their benefits
and costs equitably. ‘Truck loadings should be regulated by law and the
people who use our roads for profit should be made to bear their just
burden of the maintenance costs.

“Tf I Say That I Never Saw the Evil Side of
Gregory Rasputin—”
By LILI DEHN, in “The Real Tsaritsa.”
If I say that I never saw the evil side of Gregory Rasputin I shal
be called a liar or a fool—perhaps, more chivalrously, the latter. It is
however, the truth when I say that we never saw the evil side of him. May
I, therefore, plead for a hearing on the grounds that some men possess
dual natures, and that they adapt these to the company in which they
find themselves?
I have heard of men who at home have led most moral lives, lead-
ing elsewhere existences before which an up-to-date French novel is as
naught. Yet they never betrayed themselves to their nearest and dearest.
But even if something unforeseen had disclosed the man’s secret
orchard, his inner life, and his frailties, their existence even then would
most probably have been disbelieved by those who had known him inti-
mately for years.

Issuance of Tax Exempt Securities Saves
Nothing to the Taxpayers
By ANDREW MELLON, U. 8S. Secretary of the Treasury.
Tax exemption, in substance, constitutes a subsidy from the federal
government, the cost of which, in the long run, must fall on those tax-
payers who do not or can not take refuge in tax-exempt securities.
Even from the point of view of the states themselves, I believe it is
clear that the continued issuance of tax-exempt securities saves nothing to
the taxpayers in the states, and that, in the long run, it brings heavier
taxes.
‘The tax-exempt privilege, with the facility that it gives to borrowing,
leads, in many cases, to unnecessary or wasteful public expenditure, and
this, in turn, is bringing about a menacing increase in the debts of states
and cities. These debts constitute a constantly growing charge upon the
taxpayers in the several states, and will ultimately have to be paid, prin-
cipal and interest, through tax levies upon these very taxpayers.

Buildings of Public Interest Should Be Classed
as Public Monuments
By F. D. GALLATIN, Park Commissioner for Manhattan.
Buildings of public interest should be classified as in France as public
monuments. It should be forbidden to alter or destroy buildings so classi-
‘fied except with the consent of these authorities. In return for this a
‘reduction might be made in taxes. Subsidies might be furnished for
their upkeep and when necessary, money paid for damages toy the diminu-
tion of the value of the fee. I believe that if we wish to preserve our
country as we have known it and assimilate our newcomers, money could
not be better spent. The soul of our country is worth saving.
‘There is no better way to teach immigrants the traditions and ideals
of America than by keeping before their eyes the buildings symbolizing
the best of America’s past.
It all comes to this. A city is not a mere heap of stone. It is a com-
‘munity whose aspirations are expressed by its architecture and by its

DENVER BRANCH, N. A. A. C. P.
OPENS 1923 MEMBERSHIP DRIVE
WITH LARGE MEETING—WALTER F. WHITE OF NEW YORK
PRINCIPAL SPEAKER.
The 1923 membership drive of the Denver Branch, N. A. A. C. P., opened on Saturday night last with a largely attended smoker at Masonic hall, Twenty-eighth and Welton street, at which Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the national body, was the guest of honor and principal speaker. This event was followed by a series of meetings at the churches, before civic bodies, both white and colored, the Y. W. C. A. and City Federation of Women's Clubs, from Saturday to Wednesday, at all of which Mr. White delivered forceful addresses. As a consequence the greatest interest in years is being manifested in the work of the association.
Mr. White told of the achievements of the national association at a large meeting at Shorter Church, Sunday night. He was given close attention throughout and was accorded a great ovation at the close of his address. In corroboration of the oft-repeated statement that the N. A. A. C. P. never sleeps and is always on the job, one has but to recall that when a bill was introduced recently in the Colorado State Senate, conferring powers upon municipalities to enact zoning ordinances, the Denver Branch in order to protect the rights of Negro citizens, had the following section inserted in the bill:
"Section 10. — Racial Restriction: This Act shall not be consulted, in the case of any municipality, to confer or enlarge any authority or power to establish any restriction based upon race or color." This bill has since passed both branches of the Legislature and will become a law upon signature by Governor Sweet.
HAINES WINS HIGHEST SHORT-
HAND HONORS
Mr. Henry H. Haines, popular as shorthand reporter and public stenographer, besides successfully passing the federal and state civil service examinations, requested from the Institute of Phonography at Cincinnati, O., their highest examination papers. One day after receiving these papers Mr. Haines answered all the questions and returned them. This was an examination in Phonetics, Theory of Shorthand and Verbatim Reporting. This is the answer of the president of the Institute as to the result of Mr. Haines' work: "I am happy to say that you have passed the examination satisfactorily, complying with all its conditions, and that you are now entitled to receive the Highest Grade Teachers' Certificate. With hearty congratulations on your success in winning the certificate, I am, Yours sincerely, Jerome B. Howard, president."
C. M. E. CHURCH NOTES
Reverend C. E. Chapman, Minister
Last Sunday was an excellent day from every viewpoint. The tide of things are indicative of better things just ahead. The Sunday School was fraught with the usual interest. The loyal superintendent, Mr. Allen Collins, is succeeding in bringing forward the Sunday School to a point heretofore unattained. The teachers and pupils are doing their bit to put that life and spiritual influence into the Sunday School that are characteristic of all live Sunday Schools. The moments in the Sunday School are proving to be of great inspiration. EVERY DAY IN EVERYWAY THE SUNDAY SCHOOL IS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!
The fourth Sunday in this month, which is April 22, will be the occasion of the second quarterly conference. At that time Rev. R. P. Tyler, presiding elder of the Topeka district, will be present and deliver both messages. Great plans are being laid to make that day a BANNER DAY.
Tomorrow (Sunday) there will be the usual program: Sunday School at 9:45 a. m.; praise service and morning worship at 11:00 a. m.; praise service and evening worship at 7:45 p. m. The minister in charge will present both messages.
REVIEW OF 1922-23 BASKETBALL SEASON IN THE JUNIOR CIRCLE OF DENVER
Basketball among our youths in the city probably reached its greatest height in the season of 1922-23. The outstanding features, of course, were the sensational victories of the HI-"Y" Tigers in the games with leading contenders for the junior championship of the cty.
The Hi-"Y" Tigers were easily the "class" of the city for their size, going through the entire season with only two defends. In fact, the Tigers won twelve consecutive games against the most formidable junior teams in the city. It was a splendid record, and because of it the Tigers were inspired to go out of their class and play in "Y" All-City Tournament, and they managed to get away until they played the Don Long Terrors in the semi-finals, and the latter eliminated them. Most all of the games were against white teams as there were only two colored teams in the city. So the Hi-"Y" Tigers are virtually the junior champions of Denver and this has been finally accomplished under the talented coaching of Mr. H. W. Townsend, boys work secretary, himself a player for Pennsylvania.
The team was well manned on the floor by Captain Charles Clark, and well managed by Manager Ulysses Andrews.

Rider Haggard protests against the "exposure of the old king to the vulgar gaze." Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter would have the mummy on exhibition where it is. What do you think about it?
By JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN
GOOD old American "hunch" is what uncovered that Pharaoh's rock-hewn tomb in the Valley of Kings, unearthed millions, put Tut-Ankh-Amen back on the first page after 33 centuries, changed the fashions and made the names of Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon household words.

GOOD old American "hunch" is what uncovered that Pharaoh's rock-hewn tomb in the Valley of Kings, unearthed millions, put Tut-Ankh-Amen back on the first page after 33 centuries, changed the fashions and made the names of Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon household words. For many years Carter has been hot on Tut-Ankh-Amen's trail and always his "hunch" led him back to the tomb of Rameses VI. This particular Rameses didn't amount to much as a Pharaoh, but he dug himself a whopping big elaborate tomb in the solid rock, so now it's swept and dusted and lighted by electricity and is one of the approved sights.
Twice did Carter dig in front of this elaborate tomb and twice he missed by a few yards only. Last fall, on a spot just 15 feet from the wall of the big tomb his "hunch" said "Dig here!" First he struck some ancient workmen's huts. Then he came upon a step cut in the solid rock. He went down 20 steps and found a door covered with intact seals of the royal cemetery.
Now the work has been stopped and the tomb resealed until cooler weather next fall. This gives Mr. Everyman, who is neither an archeologist nor an Egyptologist, a chance to catch up and find out what all the excitement is about, so as to be ready for the doings when work is resumed. These will be in the way of elmax in a romantic and dramatic story. What follows is intended to be informative.
Howard Carter is an American who went to Egypt thirty years ago to paint in water colors. He did work for the Egyptian Exploration fund and achieved a large reputation as an archeological draughtsman. He was made government inspector of antiquities for Upper Egypt. The late Theodore M. Davis of Boston obtained a concession in 1901 and Carter took charge of exploration. Davis was at first very successful. Later his luck changed and Lord Carnarvon took over his concession in 1914. During the war Carter was in the British Intelligence service. This is Carter's first big find for Carnarvon, who got discouraged more than once and now gives Carter full credit for persistent belief in his "hunch."
George Edward Stanhope Molyneaux Herbert is the fifth earl of Carnarvon. He was born in 1860 and succeeded his father in 1890. He was educated at Eton and at Trinity college. Cambridge. He married Almina Wombell in 1895 and has a son and daughter. He owns about 36,000 acres and has a racing stable.

discovered by Carter. The diagram below shows the location of these two tombs in the Valley of the Kings. The mummy is that of Sethos I, a powerful Pharaoh of the nineteenth dynasty (1328-1203 B. C.). This mummy is in the museum at Calro. Tut-Ankh-Amen's mummy, if found, will look much like it.
The photograph at the lower right is part of what the excavators saw directly in front of them when they broke through the door of the first chamber. The spotted animal is a cow of gilt inlaid with ebony, one of the supports of a royal ceremonial couch; its head is emblematic of Hathor, the cow-headed goddess. Piled up under this couch are boxes containing mummified food.
To the right is seen the foot of another couch, the supports of which are lions. The big box in front of it contains the king's underwear. To the left is the head of a third couch, the supports being a mythological animal of the underworld. Upon this couch is a large wooden casket, with white panels, bearing the cartouches of the names of the king and queen. Under this couch is the king's chair or throne.
Under the same couch is an ancient breach through the sealed doorway of an annex to this first chamber. Through this can be seen masses of objects stacked up five feet high.
The four alabaster vases shown are piled up at the head of the Hat-hor couch. They are of a design never before found.
These articles are but part of those in this chamber. There is apparently everything that a king could use, from a silver boomerang for hunting to chariots and personal jewelry. In the northeast and northwest corners are two enormous portrait statues of Tut-Ankh-Amen.
Here is a mind's-eye diagram of Tut-Ankh-Amen's tomb, so far as it has been opened up: The tomb is in the form of a T, with the entrance at the small end, facing east. First twenty steps down. Next an east and west passage 30 feet long. Next a north and south room, 21 by 15 feet and 9 feet high. At the south end is a second room, not yet opened. At the north end is the room containing the catafalque believed to hold the mummy. Off this last room is another, without a door, full of miscellaneous articles, including works of art.
The catafalque, on which the attention of the archeological world is centered, gives every evidence of containing the mummy of Tut-Ankh-Amen. It is 16 feet by 12 and 12 feet high. It practically fills the chamber. The outer case is apparently cedar, elaborately ornamented both outside and inside; only an Egyptologist can describe it. Heavy doors, which open a few inches, disclose a second case, equally elaborate, which is sealed. Between the two cases is a mass of jewelry, principally scarabs. A section of the wall will have to be demolished to remove the several cases.
Perspective of Egyptian history: It should be remembered that Egypt was old in Tut-Ankh-Amen's time. Its continuous civilization dates from about 8000 B. C. and its written record begins about 5000 B. C. The Sphinx, hewn from the living rock for a purpose not yet settled, is believed to be older than the pyramids, which were built
London Times—New York Times copyright by arrangement with Earl of Carnarvon.
by the fourth dynasty kings (3998-3721 B. C.). The fifteenth and sixteenth dynasties were the invading shepherd kings from Syria, who fixed their capital in the Delta. The seventeenth dynasty shows the rise of the Egyptian stock ruling at Thebes and the expulsion of the Hyskos. Tut-Ankh-Amen's time was the eighteenth dynasty (1587-1378 B. C.). Menepta, generally supposed to be the Pharaoh of the Exodus, was the last of the nineteenth dynasty (1528-1203 B. C.).
Tut-Ankh-Amen's dynasty was powerful, showy and interesting. There were seven kings in this order: Tahutmes IV, Amenhotep III, Akhenaten, Rasmenkha, Tutankhamen, Ay, Horemheb. These are the ordinary encyclopedia names. All sorts of variations are found, as each king had four names and there are different readings of each. Amenhotep III was possibly greatest of the seven; under him Egypt was practically mistress of the world. Akh-n-aton (Amenhotep IV, 1375-1358 B. C.), was the famous "Heretic King." Rasmenkha was a nobody who married a daughter of Akh-n-aton and ruled for a few months only. Tut-Ankh-Amen apparently ruled for about eight years and died young.
Tut-Ankh-Amen is interesting almost entirely because of his connection with Akh-n-aton and his tomb has been persistently sought in the hope of information about the "Heretic King." For Akh-n-aton, the "Boy Pharaoh," is the first man in recorded history who rejected polytheism and declared for one god. He defied the arrogant priesthood of Amon and announced an invisible Father of mankind, the "Lord of love," the "Comfortor of them that weep." He abandoned Thebes and built a splendid new capital at Tel-el-Amarna, with a temple dedicated to "Aton," his new god. Iconoclast and dreamer, he condemned conventional art and ordered the representation of things as they appeared to the eye, refused to make war. His city was a sort of ancient Utopia. Unfortunately he died at twenty-eight, leaving only daughters. His mummy was found in 1007 by Carter, but the tomb had been completely rified.
Tut-Ankh-Amen married a daughter of Akh-n-aton and at first accepted his father-in-law's religion, calling himself Tut-Ankh-Aton. But he found Egypt nearly bankrupt and falling in power. So he changed his name, abandoned the new capital, went back to Thebes, restored the priests of Amon with increased power and prospered exceedingly. Does his tomb contain hieroglyphics or papyrus relating to all this?
The process of mummifying the dead was a vital factor in the Egyptian religion; on its success depended existence in the next world. Embaiming was therefore a sacred art and for 30 centuries the Egyptians sought to improve it. As they improved the art they improved their tombs. Mummies were first buried in the sand and protected by rockwork. Early kings built themselves pyramids. Later kings cut into the solid rock. The most important work in Egyptian literature is the "Book of the Dead." This ritual was the guide in the next world and in whole or in part was deposited with every mummy. It shows that at one stage of the journey in the next world the shade must re-enter his body. Hence the need for successful embalming, an impenetrable tomb and a storehouse full of necessities.
The intrinsic value of the articles in the first room has been estimated at about $15,000,000. This leaves the contents of the two annex rooms and of the catafalque to be reckoned with, with the possibility of other chambers. Lord Carnarvon estimates the $15,000,000, to represent "about one-fourth of what is now in sight." The market value on the curio basis can only be guessed.

Keeping Track of Expenses of Household Supplements Records of Farm Business.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
Household accounts are valuable on the farm as elsewhere, even though farm household expenses are very intimately associated with the business of the farm itself. The farm normally supplies much material which otherwise would become a household expense. The household, in turn, very often furnishes board for farm labor, which would otherwise be a farm expense. Keeping track of household expenses therefore supplements the records of the farm business, points out the United States Department of Agriculture.
More than this, household accounts are an important aid to economy. The first step toward saving lies usually in finding out where unnecessary expenses are incurred. It is important, therefore, to analyze or classify the expenditures and go over them carefully at the end of regular periods. One way of doing this is to record all purchases when money is paid out and then make up a monthly statement for each kind or class of expenditure. Another method is to enter everything in a column at one side of a broad page, and at the same time enter the amounts again in the columns for each class. This system makes it possible to find out at any time the amount being spent for any given kind of purchase, and the monthly totals are easy to add up.
Book Not Important.
The kind of a book to use is not important. Each family will have a different way of classifying its expenses. An ordinary ruled, square blank book bound at the left side is usually satisfactory for dividing off into columns according to the needs of the individual family. To avoid
Keeping Household Accounts Will Show Where Leaks Occur.
the work of writing the heading over and over, a number of pages may be cut off at the tops so that permanent column heads may be read above them. A large page is usually easier to record on and to study when the record is complete.
Foods may be classed as "animal foods," "fruits and vegetables," "cereal products," "groceries." Many farms furnish a large part of the first three items. The totals for these groups should offer suggestions as to how the expenses for them may be reduced by greater home production. It has been found that on the average farm 80 per cent of the animal products and 70 per cent of the fruits and vegetables consumed by the family are taken out of the farm.
Clothing, household furnishings, running expenses, advancement, incidentals, and savings are other general classes of expenditures for which separate accounts may be kept according to the second method. Under each of these heads many subdivisions may be made, but for the most purposes this general classification will be found sufficient.
Analyze Totals Yearly.
Recording the expenditures, however, is but half the task. If the totals are not analyzed at least once a year with the idea of making a spending plan for the coming year, little is gained from merely writing down the daily expenditures. This spending plan may be made for a month or even a week ahead, if the future is uncertain. The aim should then be, if possible, to spend less actual cash than the proposed plan allows. On the farm it is often possible to accomplish this by enlarging the vegetable garden, so that the family eats more vegetables and desires less of foods which must be bought, and also so that there is a good surplus to can for winter use. More well-managed poultry may be needed to provide eggs for the table and chickens to eat or can. The amount of milk, butter and cheese furnished by the farm cows may be insufficient. Possibly investigation will show that this is because of a low grade of farm animals which could be improved by better farm practice.
It has been found that, in general, over 60 per cent of the food and over 50 per cent of the fuel consumed by farm families are produced on the farm. Some records showing what farm products have actually been used in the household is of interest and value. One might not be able to write down each bunch of beets, each head of lettuce, each quart of berries, and each quart of milk taken from the products raised for sale, but the estimated quantity of the different kinds of vegetables, the number of eggs, quarts of milk and other products used by the housekeeper during a week would
furnish a sufficiently accurate guide for all purposes.
An easy way to keep closer track of the farm products used would be to hang a list of them up in the kitchen, with space for checks or strokes opposite each item, such marks indicating the normal amount of that article used or taken out at one time. To determine the value of these products per month or year, the checks can be translated into pounds or quarts and multiplied by the average price the article sold for during the period being estimated.
SOME ITEMS OF FOOD WASTED IN KITCHEN
SOME ITEMS OF FOOD WASTED IN KITCHEN
Serve Butter in Individual Pats and Cut Off Bread as Needed; Save Cereals.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
Ask yourself occasionally if any of the following foods are wasted needlessly in your kitchen or on your table, suggests the United States Department of Agriculture:
Butter — Using individual butter plates, bread and butter plates, or even individual saucers for butter keeps all unused butter clean and usable in cooking. The saving is worth the additional dishwashing. Serving butter in individual pats rather than putting a whole piece on the table prevents waste and, if the pats are made small, it is easier for each person to take as much as he wishes, and no more.
Slices of Cut Bread—Use a bread board and sharp knife at the table, and cut off just what is needed. Pieces of bread left over for any reason have many uses. They can be toasted or oven-dried and eaten like toast, rolled out for the bread-crumb jar, used for scalloped dishes, bread pudding, stuffing, thickening for soups, sauces, or gravies, in place of part of the flour in muffins, pancakes or breads, or boiled in hot milk to serve in place of cereal.
Small Amounts of Cooked Cereal—Put them into bread, muffins or griddle-cakes in place of part of the flour and liquid. Use them to thicken soups, stews or gravies. Fry them for use like a starchy dinner vegetable, or serve with a slurp for a dessert.
Skim Milk—Except for the butterfat and vitamins, skim milk is as valuable as other milk. It enriches soups, sauces or puddings, and may be given to the children if butter is used elsewhere in the diet to make good the loss of the cream. Each child should have its regular allotment of whole milk, but leftover skim milk may be given to them in addition.
Sour Milk—Cottage cheese can always be made from it, but there are also biscuits, gingerbread, pancakes, muffins and cakes, for which many cooks prefer sour milk.
Stale Cake—Make it into cabinet pudding, with a custard mixture and a few raisins or prunes; or dry it, roll it into crumbs and sprinkle them through or over ice cream, whipped cream or custard desserts.
Meat—If you know the tail-end of steaks or chops will not be eaten, why not cut them off before serving and reserve them for a stew, hash, meat balls or other "made" dish at another meal? Cutting meat into individual portions before serving and keeping the part not needed at the meal out of sight in the kitchen, where it will not tempt the appetite unnecessarily, is economical. Meat leftovers kept too long and allowed to spoil are a total loss. Remember also that overcooked meat is often wasted meat. Fuel saving is often food saving.
Fish—Use any fish not eaten at a meal in some such way as creamed fish, scalloped fish, or fish chowder. With potatoes and other vegetables any of these constitutes an appetizing lunch dish.
Gravy—Make a good deal of gravy after cooking a roast, as many of the good meat extractives are in the roasting pan. Save what gravy is not served at table to warm up the leftover slices for use in a "shepherd's pie," to thicken croquettes or to combine with vegetables, macaroni or noodles.
Fats—Most fats can be used for frying, baking or other cooking, when cleanly rendered. Many housekeepers who have the time find it economy to save fat and make it into soap.
OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE
Remove grass stains with ammonia and water.
Remove tea and coffee stains with boiling water.
Empty talcum powder boxes make handy salt and pepper shakers for the kitchen.
To remove iron rust, molten with ammonia, then use salts of lemon, rinse in boiling water.
Grease spots on suede shoes will disappear if they are rubbed with a piece of cloth dipped in glycerin.
To open a glass jar of fruit without cutting the rubber, let the top stand in hot water several minutes.
If ants get into the ice chest, set a pail of water under each leg and remove box away from the wall.
Ugly gas or electric fixtures can be painted the color of the wall. Camouflage them with pretty parchment shades.
The Kitchen Cabinet
Can you hear the balmy breezes
From the Southland's sunny places,
Softly sighing, gently crying.
To the buds that love them so?
Come out, leaflets, for we miss you,
We have waited long to kiss you.
Lift your faces to the sunshine
And forget the winter's snow.
MORE ABOUT ONIONS
Ontons, shallot, leeks, chive and garlic all belong to the same family and are principally used to add flavor to foods. Onions are rich in food value, soothing to the nervous system and healing to inflamed mucous membranes. An onion poulice for a chest cold
Onions are rich in food value, soothing to the nervous system and healing to inflamed mucous membranes. An onion poultice for a chest cold is invaluable. Leeks are used as onions, cooked as vegetables; the shallot is more often used as flavoring for salads and soups, as is the chive.
Those who value the onion will often not tolerate garlic, though it is one of the choicest of flavor vegetables when used with impunity. The darkeyed brothers of the south eat garlic as we do fresh vegetables and with very little regard for the comfort of a neighbor. Of all odorous vegetables the grallic, eaten uncooked, leaves the most odious breath. It should be used as it is intended to be used, as a mere suggestion of flavor, and when so used is perfectly delightful. A clove of cut garlic, cut side rubbed inside the salad bowl, will give just the desired flavor to the salad.
Onion Soup.—Have ready one cupful of onion pulp which has been cooked and put through a sieve. Put into a saucepan one tablespoonful of butter, stir into it two tablespoonfuls of flour and cook until smooth and thick. Add three cupfuls of scalded milk, the onion pulp, seasoning of salt and pepper, let it boil up and serve piping hot.
Glazed Onions.—Peel silver-skinned onions of small, uniform size and cook in boiling salted water for fifteen minutes. Drain and dry well on a cheese cloth. Put into a buttered baking dish, add highly seasoned brown stock to cover the bottom of the dish, sprinkle with sugar and bake until soft, basting often with the stock in the pan.
Onion Sandwiches.—Slice a mild onion or a Bermuda onion in very thin slices, sprinkle with a highly seasoned French dressing, place between slices of bread and serve with a glass of hot milk.
I have loved my country in the intimate depths of her divine beauty; but above all things I have loved the human race and the triumph of ideals that can be won only by conflict. Gertrude Slaughter.
WHILE ORANGES ARE PLENTIFUL
The luscious orange is especially enjoyed during the spring months when
VINEGAR
Orange Honey Cocktail. — Take two-thirds of a cupful of fresh orange juice, two tablespoonfuls of lemon juice, two tablespoonfuls of honey, a few grains of salt and enough crushed ice to half fill the glasses. Mix the ingredients and pour over the ice; serve at once.
Fruit Salad.—On individual plates of lettuce arrange in star-pattern five sections of grapefruit freed from membrane, and on these arrange the same number of orange sections. Cut long slender strips of figs and place on the orange sections and fill the spaces with finely-cut dates. Serve with French dressing.
Orange Shortcake.—Sift two cupfuls of flour with one teaspoonful of salt, four teaspoonfuls of baking powder, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, four tablespoonfuls of shortening and one-half to three-fourths of a cupful of milk. Rub in the fat and add just enough milk to make a soft dough. Put into a greased baking pan and bake twelve to fifteen minutes in a hot oven.
Split the cake or make into two, butter between before baking. Spread with butter and cover with sliced oranges which have been covered with sugar and allowed to stand for an hour.
Orange Cake.—Cream one-third of a cupful of butter, add one cupful of sugar, two eggs beaten well, one-half cupful of orange juice, one-half teaspoonful of soda, one and three-fourths cupfuls of flour. Bake in buttered, floured cake pans and cover with boiled orange frosting. Into a saucepan put one cupful of sugar, one-third of a cupful of orange juice, and grated rind of an orange; cook without stirring until it forms a thread. Pour slowly in a fine stream, beating all the time, on a well-beaten egg white. Beat until cool enough to use for filling and frosting.
Fondant.—Take two cupfuls of granulated sugar, one-quarter cupful of water, a tablespoonful of white corn sirup; boll to the soft-ball stage. Cool and beat until creamy. Then any desired fruit flavor or any kind of nuts may be added. The French bon bons are balls of the fondant dipped in chocolate, or tinted and flavored fondant.

The KITCHEN CABINET
On the sun-dial in the garden
The great sun keeps the time;
A faint, small, moving shadow,
And we know the worlds are in rime;
And if once that shadow should falter
By the sun, we will fall;
The seas would devour the mountains,
And the stars together would crash.
—Richard Watson Gilder.
Leftover bread is like the poor, always with us. The cut slices of bread need not be considered, as they may be used to make dry toast, milk toast, or French toast and are always an agreeable dish for any breakfast or luncheon.
soldered, as they may be used to make dry toast, milk toast, or French toast and are always an agreeable dish for any breakfast or luncheon.
Small bits of bread roiled or dried and put through the meat grinder may be used in countless ways.
As stuffing for green peppers, fowls of all kinds, roast pork, veal breast and sparerib roasts, bread crumbs are indispensable.
Bread Fritters.—Cut stale bread into thin slices, shape with a biscuit cutter, spread with jam, dip in the following batter after putting the slices together as sandwiches:
Sift one cupful of bread flour with one tablespoonful of powdered sugar and one-quarter of a teaspoonful of salt, add two-thirds of a cupful of milk, gradually, and two well-beaten egg yolks. Add one tablespoonful of olive oil and the whites of the eggs beaten stiff. Dip and fry in deep fat. Toasted bread for garnishing, for croutons, for soup and for canapes will be useful ways of using stale bread.
Bread Pudding.—Spread slices of stale bread, or broken bits may be dotted with butter, cover with stewed or fresh rhubarb well-sweetened, and bake until the bread is softened. Serve with cream and sugar. Any stewed or canned fruit may be used for this pudding.
Fried oysters rolled in crumbs seasoned with salt and pepper and fried in butter make a good supper dish. Cracker crumbs are fully as good. For all escalloped dishes a nice top of buttered crumbs adds to the appearance as well as the palatability. Large onions may be cooked until partly tender and stuffed with seasoned meat, sausage and bread crumbs for filling. Bake, basting with butter and water until the onions are perfectly tender.
A room without flowers in summer is as devoid of character and charm as a man without a necktie.
"We come now to the root of the matter."
HOME-MADE CANDIES
The candy made at home is always much cheaper and usually more wholesome than that bought in the shops. Butter Scotch. Take two cupfuls of granulated sugar, two table-spoonfuls of water.
Butter Scotch.
—Take two cupfuls of granulated sugar, two tablespoonfuls of water, a tablespoonful of butter and boll without stirring until it hardens in the spoon. Pour out on flat buttered plates and when cool mark in squares.
Candied Popcorn.—Boll one cupful of pulverized sugar, three tablespoonfuls of water, and one tablespoonful of butter until it is just ready to grain; add three quarts of nicely popped corn, stir until the kernels are coated.
Molassas Candy.—To one and one-half pounds of sugar add one cupful of molasses, one cupful of water, and one-fourth cupful of vinegar. Boll until a hard ball may be formed in cold water, add one-half teaspoonful of cream of tartar as soon as the boiling commences. When almost done add one-half cupful of butter and one-fourth teaspoonful of soda. Pour out to cool, then pull.
Suitana Caramels.—Melt one-fourth of a cupful of butter, add two cupfuls of sugar, one-half cupful of milk, one-fourth cupful of molasses, and heat to the boiling point and boil seven minutes. Add two squares of unsweetened chocolate and stir until melted, then boil seven minutes longer, add one cupful of chopped nuts and two tablespoonfuls of chopped raisins. Bent until creamy. Pour out and mark in squares.
Ice Cream Candy.—Mix three cupfuls of granulated sugar with one-half cupful of vinegar and one and one-half cupfuls of cold water and a tablespoonful of butter. Boll to a hard ball, then pull when cool.
Coconut Candy.—Take powdered sugar, using a cupful; add a tablespoonful of softened butter and cream it well into the sugar; add coffee, a few drops at a time, mixing well, until the sugar is creamy; stir in a cupful of coconut and drop by spoonfuls on a buttered paper.
Glaced Brazil Nuts.—Crack the nuts and peel off the brown skin. Take one cupful of sugar, one-quarter of a cupful of water and boll until the syrup becomes a light straw color or will be very crisp when dropped into cold water. Stir in the nuts, drip and lay them on a greased plate to barden.
