THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY CONGRESSMAN L.C.DYER ADDRESSES GREAT DENVER AUDIENCE FEARLESS CHAMPION OF ANTI-LYNCHING BILL GIVEN WONDERFUL OVATION VOL. XXIX. THE People's Tabernacle at 20th and Lawrence St, came back into its own Wednesday night, as a popular assembly hall, when Hon. Leonidas C. Dyer, member of Congress from Missouri and author of the famed Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, delivered a remarkable address before more than 1,200 Denver citizens of the white and colored races. In fact his address was more than remarkable in every way. It was the frank, out-spoken sentiments of a heart truly attuned to the sufferings and injustices' of a struggling race, who have not as yet learned the lesson of organization and cohesiveness. We believe it no exaggeration to say that in many respects it was the greatest meeting of its character ever held in Denver. With the combined choirs of every Negro church in Denver forming a chorus of one hundred voices singing the national hymn, America, and the great Negro national hymn "Lift every Voice and Sing," with high church dignitaries, jurists and state and city officials upon the platform, the setting was complete for a great gathering, and the Denver Branch is to be commended for its very completeness of detail. The meeting opened promptly at 8:15 with Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook presiding. Instantly the big pipe organ struck up America and the great throng arose to their feet and joined in a fervent patriotic rendition of the national air. The invocation by the Rt. Rev. J. Henry Tihen, Bishop of the Roman Catholic Church, beautifully set forth the Fatherhood of God and offered the brotherhood of man as a logical accompaniment. It was the first time that the eminent Catholic dignitary has appeared before our group and his simple impressiveness and /earnestness brought to him many admiring friends. Then followed a rendition of "Lift every Voice and Sing" by the chorus of 100 voices, that proved a marvel of perfection and interpretation. Prof. Hewetson Watson has long been regarded in Denver as a premier musical director, but never did his genius reveal itself with greater lustre than on Wednesday. His efforts were truly a distinct and complimentary contribution to this wonderful meeting. Dr. Westbrook in a next address then introduced Mayor Bailey who in turn appropriately introduced Congressman Dyer. When the great Missouri statesman arose he was accorded an ovation seldom witnessed in Denver. He had his audience with him from the start, and as he proceeded to picture America's shame with graphic details and indisputable facts he swayed the vast audience into a frenzy of enthusiasm that will not be forgotten for many days. The Rocky Mountain News of Thursday morning commented as follows on his address: "Lynching is the shame of America," declared Congressman L. C. Dyer of St. Louis, speaking before more than 1,000 Denver Negroes under the auspices of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, at the People's Tabernacle, Twentieth and Lawrence Streets last night. He was received with rising applause by the crowd. Congressman Dyer is the author of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill which was killed in the Senate of the last United States Congress. He declared that it was killed by a filibuster on the part of Southern Senators, but that it would be brought up by himself again at the next session." At the colse of his stirring message the applause and cheering continued for fully five minutes. Congressman Dyer has woven himself into the hearts of Denver Negro citizens in a manner, never to be forgotten. He is rightfully the William Lloyd Garrison of the present generation, fearless, logical and immensely in earnest. He was equally clear in depicting the vices and virtues of both the white and colored races, reaching great heights of pathos and tragedy at times. THE COLORADO STATESMAN predicts abundant fruit as a result of his visit as he won many friends over to the cause of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. In this connection we are pleased to note that the Denver Branch is regarded as one of the strongest Branches in the country. The editor feels constrained to offer a word of praise to Geo. W. Gross who has served continuously as president since the Branch was founded eight years ago by Dr. Clarence F. Holmes, here on a vacation from Howard University. Mr. Gross has always thrown his heart and soul in the work, and surrounded by a loyal group of fellow workers has built up what must now be recognized as a substantial Denver institution. Wednesday night's meeting means much to the Negro manhood and womanhood of Denver. Among the prominent white citizens occupying a seat on the platform were Mayor Bailey, Bishop Tihen, Judge C. J. Morley, Dr. W. H. Sharpley, Mr. Quince Record and Dr. Kahan. Sam Langford Adds Another Title to to His List Colored Fighter Downs Champion of Spain in Six Rounds Mexico City, Mex., April 30.—(Pacific News Bureau)—Sam Langford, the veteran American Negro fighter of twenty years' ring activity, has within the last thirty days acquired the titles of heavyweight champion of Mexico and Spain. A few weeks ago Kid Savage, the champion of Mexico, met defeat at the hands of the veteran Negro. Last week the idol of Spain was disposed of in the sixth round. Before an immense audience in the El Toreo bull ring, Sam Langford defeated Andream Balsa, the heavyweight champion of Spain, in the sixth round of what was scheduled to be a finish fight. Langford received a rousing reception. Kid Savage was at the ringside and issued a challenge to the winner; however, from the neat manner in which Langford disposed of the two champions there is but little hope of a return match or a likely candidate for Champion Langford. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MAY 5, 1923. M. Born in Coldwater, Michigan, September 1, 1860. Came to Colorado and had become heavily engaged in the stock business while still under twenty; elected in 1886 Representative to the Legislature from Elbert county; elected State Senator from Elbert and Arapahoe counties in 1888; appointed United States Marshal for Colorado by President McKinley and served seventeen years under Presidents McKinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson. In 1916 he was appointed Manager of Safety by Mayor Speer, and in 1919 was elected Mayor of Denver. He is one of the founders and President of the Capitol Hill State Bank. Thus runs the biographical sketch of the Mayor of Denver, who now seeks RE-ELECTION. TRIED AND PROVEN, there is from the standpoint of FAIRPLAY to all fair-minded citizens, no necessity to beseech sympathy for the RE-ELECTION of a man who has filled with entire satisfaction to the electors of the City and County of Denver, the position of Mayor, which to some persons is equivalent to a target for TROUBLE-MAKERS to shoot their vituperative darts at, while to others who are concerned in the development of civic life and beauty of a city, progress of its citizens and general attraction to outsiders—health and pleasure seekers, also business people, it is that standard of leadership of government which when carried out with the assistance of those vitally interested in the welfare of its people "leads on to fortune and to fortune smiles." This can be truthfully and fearlessly expressed of our present Mayor, Dewey C. Bailey, who has worked ardently and assiduously to establish in the minds of outsiders a better conception of the mid-western portion of the United States, and enhance the care and interest of those who have decided to make this city—Denver—a permanent habitation for the enjoyment of continued peace and happiness. A reminder of the successful carrying out of THE BROADWAY EXTENSION recommended by the original city planning commission appointed by the late honored and revered Mayor Robert W. Speer; the completion of the Civic Center, West Side Court Building, Municipal Tuberculosis Hospital, The Cody Museum, the purchase of Echo Lake, Improvements in Parks, Streets and Highways, a modern and up-to-date Fire Department; construction of Viaducts and Bridges, the opening of the Overland Park to tourists—these and all of these are positive proofs of a man of constructive ability; and the people of Denver having been schooled and graduated in what constitutes GOOD CITY GOVERNMENT will not be unmindful of a man who "utters least but does most" (in the language of the writer) and will again emphatically declare their confidence in the Man, the Leader, the Mayor, DEWEY C. BAILEY, by going early to the polls on Tuesday, May 15, and giving him their FIRST CHOICE. State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House MAYOR DEWEY C. BAILEY New York World Says, "No Wonder Negro Is Leaving South" The New York World, in an editorial published April 24, and forwarded by the press service of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, comments on the migration northward of Negroes from the South, and puts the blame not only on economic conditions but on the treatment of Negroes by southern whites. The editorial in full is as follows: The Negro Exodus Some indication of the magnitude of the Negro migration from South to North may be gained from the report of the Department of Agriculture that 13 per cent, or 32,000 of the Negro farm hands of Georgia have come North during the last year. The movement is continuous and growing, and though Georgia is losing a much larger proportion of her laborers than any other state, the exodus is not a local or temporary affair. Every Southern community is affected. From the point of view of the Negro there is every reason for moving North. Farm wages are low everywhere; they are lowest of all in the South. Socially and politically the Negro enjoys much more freedom in the North. Added to these incentives to change are the discontent of returned colored troops with traditional living conditions, the breakdown of the contract-labor system, recent crop failures and general agricultural bankruptcy. On the whole, the wonder is that the Negro did not walk out long ago. But if the South allows the emigration to proceed it will wake at some not far distant date to discover that there is nobody left to work the plantations. The whole economic structure of the South has rested upon a class of unskilled labor which is rapidly getting out from under. Not socially, economically or politically has the South made it worth while for the Negro to remain. MANDATE OVER MEXICO Klan Program Includes Alliance With Canada; Elimination of European Emigration and Mandate Over Mexico Although one of the prerequisites to citizenship in the Invisible Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, as published in their official literature, is that "No man is wanted in this order who will not and cannot swear an unqualified allegiance to the government of the United States of America, its flag and its Constitution . . . who does not esteem the government of the United States above any other government, civil, political or ecclesiastical, in the whole world," the activities of the Klan in Canada has grown to such proportions as to attract the attention of the Canadian press. The Spectator, quoting an official of the Klan, states that "the Klan is already established in the western provinces of Canada and will soon be operating over the entire Dominion, and has for its goal 'the idea of a sort of a confederacy.' That does not necessarily mean your separation from the British Empire, but a more definite alliance between the two great English-speaking countries on this continent. We have a definite program in view that will be of the greatest benefit to all. Confederacy would prohibit the dumping of European emigrants on this continent, would absolutely forbid a further influx of orien- NO.29. tals and would establish a mandate over Mexico." Canadians Oppose Klan Activities According to the mayor of London, Ontario: "Canadians will not tolerate men with bloody hands walking in their midst. Justice in the Dominion is sure and swift. As mayor of London, I will use all the power of my office to rid the city of the verinous missionaries of an order that seeks to terrify citizens who may differ from these so-called Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in race, color, religion or ability to succeed." N. Y. State Senate Passes Anti-Klan Bill Backed by N. A. A.C.P. By a vote of 46 to 4 the Senate of the state of New York, on April 24, passed the Walker bill requiring all secret and fraternal organizations to file lists of their members, their constitutions and oaths with the secretary of state. The bill is intended to put an end to the secrecy without which the operation of the Klan becomes impossible, and makes violation of the law a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of from one to ten thousand dollars. The Director of Publicity of the N. A. A. C. P. appeared at the hearings in Albany, the state capital, before the Senate Committee on the Judiciary, to urge enactment of the measure. Colored Woman Produces Big Race Production Kansas City Woman Heads Latest Negro Film Producing Company Kansas City, Mo., April 30.—(Pacific News Bureau)—Kansas City is claiming the honor of having the first colored woman film producer in the United States, in the person of Mrs. Maria P. Williams. As secretary and treasurer of the Western Film Producing Co., a Negro corporation of Kansas City, Mo., Mrs. Williams has just completed "The Flames of Wrath," a five-reel mystery drama, written, acted and produced entirely by colored people.

During the past years the following six new languages were added to the list: Jaba, for a tribe in northern Nigeria; Kros, for a tribe along the West Coast; Meru, for 150,000 souls near Mount Kenya; Lugbara, for 250,000 folk on the southwest border of Uganda; Luba Katanga, a dialect of the Baliba tribe in Belgian Congo, near the largest copper mines in the world; Kololo, spoken in Barotseland by 300,000 Makololo, described by Livingston. Pt eam Be ee ey Penalties Met. 2 es Raion y ge For Councilman of District No. 9. The position of Councilman is con- ceded to be one demanding the service of a man experienced in realty values and who will attend to his duties in- stead of spending his time in abusing political foes and telling the world about himself, Mr. Mancini’s an- nouncement was greeted by all the newspapers of Denver as the best possible selection that could be made in district Number Nine. Since the opening of the present campaign the daily papers have been silent con- cerning him because they know that he is the most capable man that could have been selected and they also know that every realty owner knows the same thing. You will find his major- ity one of the largest on the ticket and you should be one of those to help give this majority. For the past twenty-five years he has lived in Denver. He is 36 years of age, is married, has three children, and thoroughly understands the needs conducive to the betterment of family life in District No. 9. He owns his home and other property in District No. 9, is president of the Italian- American Publishing Company, is a member of the International Typo- graphical Union, uses only union labor in the composition of his newspapers, thoroughly understands and is in en- tire sympathy with organized labor. His previous political services be- gan when he was but 21 years of age with his appointment to the park police by Mayor Speer, in a system- atized effort to clean up Denver's public parks.“ While in this service he became thoroughly imbued with the progressive spirit of Denver's most loved mayor. For two years he has been state factory inspector, do- ing much to improye the manufactur- ing conditions of the state. For the past eleven years he has been the supervisor of employment agencies, in which capacity he continues until May 1 of this year. If elected he will devote his entire time to the betterment of our beautl- ful city, and of the East and North sides. He will keep your interests up- permost, giving, in this capacity, the sound business judgment that has made him successful. On these prin- ciples, he respectfully asks you to carefully weigh every factor and cast your ballot for him. Cleans Teeth ot Saw.

IN 26 HOURS MAKE RECORD FLIGHT san Liege, Caul.—Aul distance rec- ords for a nonstop airplane flight were smashed a few days ago by Lieut. Oakley G. Kelly and John A, Mae- Ready, who flew here from Hemp- stead, N. Y., in 26 hours 50 minutes 48 2-5 seconds, official time. The dis- tance covered was approximately 2,625 miles, but the flyers’ average speed ‘was more than 100 miles an hour be- cause they did not follow an exact air Une. It was thelr second attempt at a transcontinental flight without a stop, they having been forced down at Indian- apolis on their way east from San Di- ego last year. This flight was made in the same plane though a different engine had been installed, The aviators hardly had made one record than they were laying plans for a yet more ambitious flight—one around the world. This they hope to attempt next year, they announced in a statement concerning their plans given out here. * “You have written a new chapter in the triumph of American aviation,” ‘said a telegram from President Har- ding, and scores of other congratula- tory messages expressed a similar en- thusiasm over the achievement. ‘The great monoplane T-2 landed at “Rockwell field, according to the offi- cial timers at 26 minutes 564% seconds past 12 o'clock noon, Pacific coast time, The start was at 12:36:18 p. m. eastern standard time, There was wild enthusiasm at Rock- well Field when Lieutenant MacReady nosed the T-2 down and landed the huge ship with consummate ease on almost the exact spot where he and Kelly took off in their attempt to fly to New York Noy. 4 last. ‘The crowd, thrilled” by the sight of the beautiful ship and sensing deeply what its feat meant for America’s prestige in the vir, swept the guards aside like so much chaff and bore down on Kelly and MuacReady, madly cheering the makers of the country's first transcontinental flight. The two air navigators, their faces splotched with oil and grease but wreathed in wide grins were fairly forced up against the fusilage. Here they were uplifted on the shoulders of admirers, presented with huge bou- quets, and not let down until the throng had yelled itself hoarse. Major Heng Arnold, commandant of Rockwell , and the officials of the National Aeronautical Association were caught in the mad rush of the spectators, Major Arnold — finally fought his way to MacReady and Kelly's side. “Congratulations,” sald the major to both men. “It was a marvelous flight and we are surely proud of you.” The best previous record for dis- tance covered in a nonstop airplane fight was that set by MacReady and Kelly in their former trial to cross the continent without a stop, approximate- ly 2,200 miles. This distance they coyered in 27 hours 52 seconds, Noy. 3 and 4, 1922. They were foreed down by failure of their engine, its cylinder jackets cracking and the cooling water leaking out of the circulation ayaa: 2,000 Rail Employees Get Raise Chicago—Twenty thousand mainte- nance of way and railroad shop em- employees of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe railway have been granted increased wages, effective May 1, through an agreement just negotiated, A. Stout, vice president of the United Brotherhood of Maintenance of Way Employees and Railroad Shop Labor- ers, announced here. ‘The increase will range from 1 to 3% cents an hour, Mr. Stout said. The increase in the aggregate will amount to an annual increase in pay rolls of between $500,- 000 and $750,000, Santa Fe officials said.

SOFTEN THE SACRIFICE BIT of unlooked for pathos was injected into the splendid meeting held at the People's Tabernacle, Wednesday night, when the speaker of the evening made reference to the fact that James Weldon Johnson, the "Fighting Secretary" of the National Association, was threatened with a break-down as a result of over-taxing his strength and energies in the strenuous effort to push through the Anti-Lynching bill, and to carry on the direction of the other work of the association. This startling announcement caused the audience to gasp for breath. The facts were known by but few in Denver, and the most of us have been sitting back in restful security, content to let some one else carry on our fight for manhood rights, with no thought of the possible sacrifice, necessarily a part of the game. In addition to being a born fighter, Mr. Johnson came to be known as the man, "always on the job," and it is such a man that always pays the biggest price. We contribute a small amount in cash once a year to carry on a great cause, but this man gives every ounce of his strength and mentality each day of the year that we might share, in untrammeled volume, the highest blessings of American citizenship. June 17th is the birthday of the National Secretary, and the proposal has gone out from many quarters that the Branches arrange to send Mr. Johnson a suitable birth-day gift. The suggestion is timely. Instantly our fancy flashes upon a beautiful diamond pin or a loving cup, or gold-mounted cane, and it is certain that a considerable money contribution could be raised to give Mr. Johnson a trip to one of the health giving resorts of Europe. But the great Secretary wants no such gift. He figures that he will soon "come back" and has many more good fights in his make-up. The gift that Mr. Johnson needs and wants is the GIFT OF SUPPORT. Consequently it is proposed that everp present member of the Association in the country take upon him or herself the obligation of securing one new member as a compliment to the Secretary and send it to the National office, before June 17. What a magnificent thought. What a beautiful and appropriate tribute. We believe every Negro should eagerly grasp the opportunity. James Weldon Johnson is our leader, a fearless, priceless chieftain, a man who counts no sacrifice too great nor task too arduous to under take in behalf of the Race. Naturally we can do but little to repay such a sacrifice, but we can soften its effects by a show of loyalty and unstinted support. THE COMING CITY ELECTION THE COLORADO STATESMAN specially desires the election of MEN CAPABLE to run the Municipal Government of Denver successfully. Men—Real Men—free from the taint of Racial prejudice, discrimination in color, creed or religion, willing to abide by the city charter—nonpolitical. Men who have made a study of city government which is necessary to the progress of its citizens. Facts, plain and cold, are stubborn, and when disputed for the mere purpose of satisfying one's whim or caprice, serve either to strengthen the confidence reposed in the action of individuals who are entrusted with the performance of certain public duties and who have done well, or denounce unmercifully the attempt to deceive or make complex a problem easy of solution. CITY BUILDERS NECESSARY: In the return of our country to normalcy after the stress attendant with war, it necessarily follows that men experienced in city government, whether as mayor, aldermen, councilmen or other officials, would be in a better position to reason and be reasoned with, by the people who are to be the beneficiaries of their adjudication on matters pertaining to civic betterment than those who are merely aspiring for honors entirely forgetful of the responsibility attached to the positions. Because of this we advocate and support men who have ascended the ladder, rung by rung, and have been successful after years of toil and strenuous efforts to accomplish things beneficial to a community, to be seriously considered for offices in the forthcoming elections. DENVER ELECTORS WIDE-AWAKE.—The electors of Denver being fully alive to the usefulness of the franchise and its power at this particular time, are striving to secure men who will be faithful to their trust, forgetting self in the exercise of their civic duties and laboring for the improved conditions which bring prominence and importance to a city and its people. Possessing this knowledge, therefore, the electors of this city will again demonstrate their ability in the wise and judicious use of the franchise, maintaining the respect and prestige they have established for the number of years they have been fortunate in being the recipients of a good municipal government. GRATITUDE OF DENVER CITIZENS.—This seems to be an inherent quality among the people of Denver, and there will be no hesitation to prove once more their retention of this invaluable possession and priceless quality when at the polls on Tuesday, May 15, they return the RIGHT MEN FOR THE RIGHT PLACES.

BELIEVE abolition of divorce should be brought about by congressional legislation and constitutional amendment. But that is a long way ahead because there are unfortunately so many middle-aged and elderly men—and some young ones—who for one reason or other want no wives. But one great practical step that should be taken immediately is passage of legislation making decrees obtained in Paris or elsewhere invalid. It is all wrong to let a rich man or woman run off to Paris to get a divorce. We should not allow a condition to exist, which permits wealthy Americans to flee from the operation of American laws. I believe in the single standard of morals, that a man guilty of immorality should receive the same condemnation from the law and from society as a woman. Divorce is a cancer in the vitals of American life sorely needing the knife. From my experience on the bench I know that half way reforms are ineffective. The only way to cure the evil of divorce is to completely abolish divorce. The assertion that the abolition of divorce would promote immorality is all nonsense. It would have no such effect. Its tendency in every way would be to protect the home. There used to be as much immorality as there is today. Only you did not hear so much about it. The newspapers did not print so much about it. I favor this sort of thing. I would have every divorce case tried in the open. This publicity has had much to do with the disgust which is widely felt towards divorce today. The Wisconsin Idea of Good Roads Has Always Been to "Serve Traffic" By J. T. DONAGHEY, Wisconsin Highway Commission. The "Wisconsin idea" from the very beginning has been to "serve traffic." The patrol maintenance plan, adopted in 1918, improved upon from year to year, and extended to include additional county highways each year, has certainly "served traffic" better and satisfied the public to a greater degree than the expenditure of the same amount of money each year in constructing a few miles of high type surfacing would have done. After five years of patrol maintenance we find that the following conditions prevail: Every town, city or village in the state is on a well-maintained and marked highway. Traffic is distributed over a large mileage, reducing congestion on many highways. The average speed of traffic has been increased at least ten miles per hour, resulting in time saving beyond computation. It is difficult to estimate the total amount spent in Wisconsin by tourists. From the most accurate data available we are confident that it now exceeds $100,000,000 annually. "Opportunity to Dedicate Ourselves Anew to the Ideals of Peace" At a time when we witness the economic dislocations, the waste and impoverishment, and the distrust and hatred that have resulted from the World war, we have abundant reasons to congratulate our peoples that peace reigns in this hemisphere, and the meeting of this conference affords a welcome opportunity to dedicate ourselves anew to the ideals of peace. All problems find solution among those who desire to be friendly and just, and the present imperative demand of civilization itself is that nations shall set themselves, with all the resources of their intelligence and skill to the elimination of sources of controversy, and shall earnestly and diligently seek, for their manifold ills, the cures which can only be found in friendship and good faith. There are happily no controversies among us that cannot be settled by the processes of reason. No interest is cherished which could prompt aggression. There is no nation among us which entertains any ambition which runs counter to the aspirations of our free peoples. A "Parliamentary Impertinence"—Senate Proposal to Take West Indies By LORD BURNHAM, British Empire Press Union. A debate in the United States senate was raised by Senator Reed of Missouri, in which he and a few others advocated the purchase of the British West Indies by the government of the United States, or rather their appropriation as a part payment of the war debt. There is no member of the British parliament who believes more entirely in the saving virtues of the Anglo-American friendship than I do; in fact I look to something less tepid than our present relations, good though they be; but all this talk of the sale and barter of the West Indian islands is a parliamentary impertinence. Happily there is no great paper, no responsible society in the United States that takes it seriously. There are certain subjects that should be tabooed in the governing bodies of the English-speaking states, and the sale and barter of organized communities of our fellow citizens, entitled to the same rights and privileges of the British commonwealth, is one of them. Bank Failures Not Due to Violations of the Law Have Been Very Rare By THOMAS P. KANE, in "Romance and Tragedy of Banking." Bank failures that have not been due to violations of law are very rare, and if every officer and director of a bank should be true to his oath of office, temporary suspensions occasionally might become necessary under extraordinary conditions, but insolvency would not intervene, and the creditors and stockholders would not suffer loss. Because, if the officers and directors of the bank restrict the loans to any one individual or interest to the limit fixed by law, and do not undertake to circumvent its restrictions by indirect methods, the loss upon any single loan would not be sufficient to affect seriously the bank or impair its solvency. It is the excessive loan, no matter in what form it may be made, that does the damage, and no officer or director can make such a loan, directly or indirectly, without violating his oath of office and inviting the consequences that follow.

Albert Williams of 2021 Welton Street who has been very sick for several weeks is improving. Mr. J. R. Smithea returned home Sunday afternoon from an extensive trip through the South. A SUCCESSION OF DANCING PARTIES Inspired doubtless by the fact that the Shuffle Along company and the jazzy spirit held sway at the Brookway, Denver society has given its over to an unusual series of dance parties this week. On Tuesday the Native Sons entertained in lavish style, Wednesday night found the f Joe Welch well-known citizen of Twenty-seventh Avenue and Marion Street left last week for various points in Oklahoma. Congressman L. C. Dyer addressed a group of leading men and women at the Phyllis Wheatly Home Wednesday noon. His talk was very interesting. The Hipasthia Deroloc Club boys were hosts to their "steadies" Friday night to a delightful theater party at the Broadway. A supper and auto ride followed. Misses Catherine and Elizabeth Fields were guests of Denver friends the first part of the week, returning to their home in Colorado Spring's Thursday afternoon. Misses Mabel Cole and Naomi Brown of this city will leave today to join Miss Dimple Gatewood in Pueblo where they will engage in concerts there and Colorado Springs from May 6 to 10. John Anderson of Dumont, Colo., brother of Mrs. Carrie A. Washington and uncle of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Chapman of this city, died at Dumont Saturday, April 28th. He was laid to rest at Fairmount Cemetery Tuesday, May 1st. Mr. Anderson leaves a host of loving friends to mourn his death in this city and Dumont, Colo. Attorney S. E. CARY returned Monday morning from Logan county, Kansas, where he had been for the past week defending Mrs. Mary Baugh for the murder of her husband. This case was one of the celebrated cases of Western Kansas, having been tried twice before, resulting in hung juries. So you can imagine the joy that came to Attorney Cary when the jury after 28 minutes deliberation, returned a verdict of NOT guilty. Cary was assisted by W. L. Sayers, his former partner of Hill City, Kansas. About 40 enthusiastic people assembled Thursday, April 26, in the People's Presbyterian Church to form a Council of The Friends of Negro Freedom. After an interesting talk about the purpose and plans of the organization by Mr. Owen, a "stirring committee" was organized to arrange plans for a permanent organization and drive for membership, which will be conducted in the near future. The following are on the committee: Mr. Jas. Waddell (chairman), Rev. C. H. Uggams, Messrs. C. C. Dove, Milton Alleyne, Lee Lang and Mesdames Leona Barbee, Fannie Pitt, Julia Hudlin, Clarence Holmes and Kate White Harris (acting secretary). There will be a meeting of the "stirring committee" at the Negro Woman's Club Home 24th and Clarkson St., Tuesday, May 5th at 8 p. m. BEST WISHES TO MADAME ZACKARY WHO SAILED FOR EUROPE Madame Jessie Andrews Zackary, a real Denver product, being the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Maguire and wife of William Zackary, has won such laurels in the East as to be chosen among the leading characters in the play "Plantation Revue," which is booked for a series of engagements in London, England. Madame Zackary's stage name is "Jessica Zack," and both her Denver and New York admirers will follow diligently her success abroad. She spoke over the long distance telephone to her mother last Saturday immediately before sailing for Europe. VOTE FOR AMENDMENT NO. 1 There are just and fair reasons why every voter in this city should support and vote for Amendment No. 1, and we feel that if they could place themselves in our position and thoroughly understand the fact that Amendment No. 1 merely provides for a fair living wage for our fire and police men who are at their service for the protection of life and property TWENTY-FOUR hours per day, is but a just and fair request and worthy of their support and their VOTE. A SUCCESSION OF DANCING PARTIES Inspired doubtless by the fact that the Shuffle Along company and its jazzy spirit held sway at the Broadway, Denver society has given itself over to an unusual series of dancing parties this week. On Tuesday the Native Sons entertained in lavish style, Wednesday night found the full Morrison orchestra playing to a full house and on Friday night the Phalanx Club entertained pleasingly. Surely there was fun enough for all. SHORTER CHAPEL NOTES Sunday will be observed as Quarterly Meeting Day at Shorter when the Presiding Elder, Rev. A. Weyman Ward, B. D., will preach both morning and evening. Rev. A. C. Murphy of Boulder will preach the communion sermon at 3 p. m. An effort will be made to bring the aged and "shut ins" to church Sunday. Dinner will be served following the morning service by the Junior Stewardesses. Come and worship with us Sunday. Strangers welcomed. SHUFFLE ALONG The much heralded Shuffle Along company that has created such a furore throughout the East during the past two years opened at the Broadway theater last Sunday night and proved the reason for its popularity by an exhibition of jazzy jazz that was as pleasing as it was novel. It is the largest colored company that has invaded Denver since the Williams and Walker show of some years ago, and while lacking in some of the polish and beauty of this great combination, still it is a clean show full of comedy and action from start to finish. So much so in fact that there was little call for the alleged humorous write-up attempted by a daily paper last Monday. U. B. F. AND S. M. T. ANNUAL THANKSGIVING SERVICE The annual Thanksgiving Service of the U. B. F. and S. M. Ts will be held at the People's Presbyterian Church Twenty-third Avenue and Washington Street, Sunday, May 20 at 2 p. m. All members of the order are requested to meet at the church at 1 o'clock sharp. J. H. JONES, Chairman NANNIE JACKSON, Sec. C. M. E. CHURCH NOTES Reverend C. E. Chapman, Minister The services are now being held in the People's Presbyterian Church, corner of Washington Street and 23rd Avenue. Last Sunday being the first Sunday since the change of place of worship went into effect, there was an encouraging increase in attendance and interest. The following order of services will be observed: Sunday School at 3:00 p. m.; praise service and worship at 4:00 p. m.; praise service and evening worship at 8:00 p. m. Everybody is asked to note the change of the place of worship, as well as the change of hours of worship. Tomorrow (Sunday) there will be the regular program. Rev. C. E. Chapman, minister in charge, will deliver the message at 4:00 p. m., while Rev. A. C. Jackson of the Missionary Baptist Church, will deliver the evening hour message. A cordial invitation is extended all churchgoers. A hearty welcome is awaiting everybody. PIONEER CITIZEN ANSWERS FINAL ROLL CALL Mrs. Alice Eads pioneer Denver citizen of many years answered the final roll call last Monday, April 30, after a few months' illness at her late residence, 1619 Seventeenth Street. A former employee of the Grand Central Hotel, one of the oldest and prominent hostelries in the West, she gave faithful service to her employers for many years, and formed quite a host of friends and acquaintances of both races during her length of service. Her remains laid in state at the Douglass Undertaking Parlors last Thursday and funeral services were held from the chapel yesterday at 2:30 p.m. Rev. Murphy officiating. The floral offerings were rare and beautiful, and the attendance of a number of old residents and others proved the esteem the deceased was held in and the well deserved tribute that was accorded her. THE COLORADO STATESMAN extends its deepest sympathy over the loss of one of its sincere friends and staunchest supporters. Interment was at Riverside May Her Soul Rest in Peace. Y. M. C. A. NOTES With the coming in of the month we are anticipating another rush in the payment of pledges. We confidentially expect the May record not only to equal but also surpass that of April, because many of the May subscribers are paying on the first installment of their pledges, also quite a few of the April subscribers, who could not make their payment in April, are expected to finish them up this month. That should help increase the sum total of the month's payments. A very successful meeting of the Committee of Management was held last Friday evening at which reports were listened to and plans made for the coming months. Mr. Harry W. Townsend, who has been our City-Wide Boys' Secretary for the last two and a half years, has resigned his position and returned to the East. This was largely due to the fact that beginning with August the building will be torn down and no suitable arrangements could be made for the boys' work until the completion of the new building. Knowing of his work here Mr. Townsend has already received calls from other Associations in different parts of the country. We feel sure that a splendid future is awaiting him. The Rev. F. M. Liggins, pastor of the New Hope Baptist Church, will be the speaker at our meeting tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon. This will be the closing Sunday afternoon meeting until the Fall. Dr. Liggins is a strong and pleasing speaker and everyone is invited to come and hear him. The meeting will begin promptly at 4 o'clock. 30 years resident and property owner in Eighth District, desirous of obtaining for district our share of public improvements, paving of alleys and streets, more sprinkling, lighting, better railroad crossings, more factories and employment, lower taxes.

Ifould, librarian at the public library, Sydney, N. S. W. Switzerland has repaid the United States during the last year $10,000,000 on account of loans floated there in 1919 and 1920, it has been officially announced. The national debt of the country increased 90,000,000 franc last year and now totals 2,110,000,000 francs. The day of the handbook operator is over in Canada as a result of the anti-gambling act just passed in the House of Commons. It prohibits newspaper publication of betting information or the circulation of such information except at the race track during the actual race meet. A scientific expedition financed by the government has solved a mystery of fifty years' standing by its discovery in Kursk of a magnetic iron ore field. The ore was found at a depth of 600 feet and in such quantities as to arouse the hope that it may develop into one of the world's largest fields. Mexico is spending this year $500,000 on its air service and it proposes to spend next year $3,000,000 or more. The object is to make the air fleet the eyes of the army wherever a revolution threatens. It is believed that the increase in the air service will largely decrease the costs of the army, which are still heavy. Scores of Mexican airplane officers are in training in Mexico City, in the United States and Europe. Francisco Perez Rivera, matador of Mexico City and Barcelona, Spain, was gored badly by a wild bull imported from Sonora at a bull fight at Mexcall. Chagrined by his failure to defeat the animal, Rivera, it was said, attempted to commit suicide in the ring, according to reputed matador custom, but was prevented by picadores. These diverted the attacks of the bull from Rivera and rescued him after he had been injured. The people of Manitoba will be asked to vote not only for the establishment of government liquor stores to dispense liquor for beverage purposes, but also on a petition put forward by the Beer and Wine League for the sale of beer and wine with meals in hotels. Separate referendums will be taken, according to a decision reached by the Manitoba Legislature. The referendum submitted by the Moderate League of Manitoba, calling for establishment of government liquor stores, will be voted on June 1, while the ber and wine question will be settled by the electorate, probably in September. GENERAL Emerson Hough, author, died in a hospital in Evanston, Ill., a few days ago. There are 2,819,000 miles of highways in the United States, of which Texas has the greatest mileage, totaling 182,816, and Kansas is the next largest with 124,143. Hyman Bushel, counsel for Babe Ruth, laid before Acting District Attorney Pecora, in New York, charges of conspiracy and a request for the indictment of Dolores Dixon and others involved in the girl's $50,000 suit against the home-run king, which her attorney withdrew. Persistent reports that there is to be a wholesale exhumation of the bodies of House of David followers at St. Joseph, Mich., who have died were strengthened when Homer S. Quay, assistant attorney general, caused an investigation to be made of the records of approximately forty deaths. Of the forty who died six came to their ends through "causes unknown." The American State Bank at Kansas City failed to open a few days ago. A notice announced it was in the hands of the state finance commissioner. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra Company announced that the organization would be disbanded unless some agreement is reached on the wage scale for the coming season. The musicians, affiliated with the Chicago Federation of Musicians, have demanded a $15 a week increase. The company claims revenues are not sufficient to pay this increase to the 100 musicians employed. The Hippodrome, the home of big spectacles and New York's greatest playhouse, closed its doors for good recently and no longer will its audiences, each representing half the states in the Union, wonder where the diving girls go when they disappear into the huge tank and never are seen from the front to reach the surface. About 40,000,000 persons are computed to have entered the vast auditorium during the eighteen years of its existence. The Hippodrome was erected on the site of the old Sixth Avenue car barn. The great playhouse will make way for a business structure. Albert L. (Ted) Hollywood, alleged leader of the bandit gang that staged the $20,500 Frisco payroll robbery at Springfield, Mo., last May, has been arrested in Bellingham, Wash. Hollywood is the last alleged member of the bandit gang to be arrested. He is also suspected of being connected with the Denver mint robbery. William E (Pussyfoot) Johnson, dry leader, said that "neither party will venture to make the modification of prohibition an issue," adding that Congress and the country would continue getting dryer. AN EPITOME OF LATE LIVE NEWS CONDENSED RECORD OF THE PROGRESS OF EVENTS AT HOME AND ABROAD FROM ALL SOURCES SAYINGS, DOINGS, ACHIEVE MENTS, SUFFERINGS, HOPES AND FEARS OF MANKIND WESTERN Antone Hoegley died in a Helena hospital of spotted fever, resulting from a tick bite. Nine-year-old Eldon Jenson of Cornish, Utah, shot and killed his mother, Josephine Jensen, 46, while playing with a rifle. The youth told authorities he did not know the gun was loaded, and he is not being held. Two girls, each 12 years old, who ran away from home at Missoula, Montana, were taken out of a box car on arrival at Helena, and are being cared for at the county jail. The girls, "out to see the world," were traveling east-bound when intercepted and had no particular destination in mind. The Industrial Workers of the World general strike in the Pacific Coast states spread to longshoremen and transport workers at San Pedro, Calif., and it was reported 1,500 men had quit work there. In Oregon it was said the strike had not gained new adherents, but in Washington indications were that it had caused additional workers to leave their jobs. Chief Two Leggins, head of the River Crows and one of the most fambus Indians of the intertribal warfare, died at his ranch eight miles south of Hardin, Mont, of heart trouble, aged 76. In the early days he went on many war parties against Cheyennes, Blackfeet and Sloux. He was especially successful as leader of small parties in stealing horses from other tribes. Two Leggins was a particular friend of Gen. Hugh Scott, their acquaintances hip going back to the early 70s. The Southern Pacific Company has begun laying additional yard tracks in Calexico, Calif., involving the expenditure of over $100,000. This work was ordered last December, but postponed in January, when a tax order of the Mexican government resulted in cessation of freight hauling in Lower California. This order was lifted recently, and, according to railway men, more than $1,000,000 worth of improvements will be resumed by the Southern Pacific Company. Two repentant runaway wives sat in the county jail at Los Angeles, weeping in the arms of their husbands because, in place of being allowed to return to their homes, they must serve long terms in the penitentiary. They were Martha Deckman, 22, the wife who left her husband on a Kansas farm to "get a kick out of life," and Delpha Ament, who didn't "get along" with her spouse and so left him in Oregon and came to Los Angeles. Both were sentenced by Superior Judge Shenk to serve a maximum of ten years in the penitentiary on grand arceney charges growing out of a series of boulevard holdups in which they were the companions of four boys. WASHINGTON Representative J. Stanley Webster of Washington was appointed by President Harding to be United States Judge for the eastern district of Washington. A suggestion that the Senate may propose some reservations of its own before it assents to "joining a court elected by the council and assembly of the League of Nations" was advanced by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, chairman of the foreign relations committee, and Senate floor leader of his party. Since prohibition became effective in the United States exports of Scotch and Irish whisky from Great Britain to Mexico and various West Indian islands off the American coast have increased 2,000 per cent. The totals were: 1919, 70,229 gallons; 1920, 321-320 gallons; 1921, 334,615 gallons; 1922, 509,500 gallons, according to figures compiled by the Commerce Department. President Harding has decided to permit transportation to the United States of the 500 Russian refugees who recently landed in the Philippines after a stormy voyage in their own ships from Vladivostok. Plans for bringing the refugees to the United States on an army transport were mapped out at the conference of the President, Secretary Weeks and John Barton Payne, chairman of the American Red Cross. A decision was handed down by the Supreme Court under which the Federal government will be permitted to compel the Yuma County Water Users Association to begin the payment of installments to reimburse it for money advanced in the lower Colorado irrigation work. The court found that water users located on the Yuma project in Arizona could be charged with a cost of $75 per acre, which they resisted on the ground that the original contract with the government contemplated a charge of only $35 an acre.

Orange Juice Is Excellent for the Kiddies. (Prepared by the United States Department | tablespoonfuls of Orange juice supplies vitamins and valuable mineral matter necessary for proper growth and physical well being. Physicians now recommend it even for babies because it provides vitamin C, the vitamin in which milk is most likely to be lacking and without which scurvy and other disorders often occur. Oranges are equally valuable for older children and grown-ups, and the United States Department of Agriculture recommends their use at any meal. At breakfast it is usually convenient to serve either the whole fruit or the plain juice, but there are other simple ways of using them that give variety to the meals and do not involve long cooking such as might lessen the value of vitamin C. Delicious Beverage. For example, a delicious and nutritious beverage may be made by mixing two-thirds of a glass of juice with the white of one egg beaten to a froth. An orange gelatin dessert also is delicious and easy to make. Allow about $2\frac{1}{2}$ cups of orange juice, which is not heated. Soften one ounce (one-half box or one envelope) of gelatin in half a cup of cold water, mix with one cup of boiling water to dissolve the gelatin thoroughly and add two APPROPRIATE DRESS FOR ALL OCCASIONS (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) All outer clothing, men's and boys' suits and overcoats, women's and girls' suits and topcoats, should be selected from the standpoint of good materials and workmanship, their suitability to the wearer's needs and becomingness of line and color. Careful attention should be given not only to the quality of material but to the general workmanship, cut, fit, manner of finish of seams, pockets, belts and buttonholes—all of which count for service. Simple one-piece dresses of wool for cold weather and of silk for summer are as suitable for the rural woman when she appears in public at market or meetings as for business women. The advantage of silk in summer is the saving in laundry work. The wearer may further preserve the fresh appearance of the dress throughout the summer by frequent changes of collars and cuffs, the United States Department of Agriculture suggests. The same type of dress is appropriate also for the afternoon wear of the woman who is at home. For hard work she will probably prefer an inexpensive one that can be washed easily and frequently. For use with the one-piece dress, a topcoat is necessary. The latter may often need to serve the purpose of everyday and dress wear, in which case it would be wiser to buy a raincoat for use in bad weather, to save wear and tear on the other coat. If one cannot afford both a heavy and a light-weight topcoat, it may be better to buy one of medium weight and depend upon an underjacket or a piece of fur for extra warmth. For general wear some women prefer a topcoat and one-piece dress to a suit. Suits, however, have a legitimate place in the woman's wardrobe, especially when combined with a waist of the same color. A good plan is to alternate the buying of the more expensive garments; for instance, not to buy a topcoat and a suit during the same season. Blouses and separate waists for women are best made of washable materials, such as volle, batiste, handkerchief linen, crepe de chine, crepe georgette and washable silks, or madras and gingham for hard wear. The cotton materials require more frequent laundering than the crepes. Volle can be worn much longer without pressing than can any of the other cottons. Handkerchief linen is not very satisfactory because it crushes easily. For general wear, the tailored waists made of batiste, crepe de chine, wash silk or broadcloth are especially suitable; simple blouses of sheer materials are also suitable when careful attention is given to detachable linings or to undergarments. 一 tablespoonfuls of sugar or more if the orange juice is unusually sour; when the mixture is cool add the juice of half a lemon and the orange juice. Strain into a mold, and set in a cold place to harden. If desired the jelly may be served with plain or whipped cream. Orange jelly made in this way but molded in an orange rind basket is an attractive delicacy to send an invalid. An orange snow may be made of the above mixture and the whites of two eggs beaten stiff. Before the gelatin mixture begins to set, beat it gradually into the egg whites, then allow it to cool and set. The egg yolks can be used to make a custard sauce to serve with this dessert instead of cream. Maken Pleasant Variety. Oranges introduced into fruit cocktails, fruit salads, or fruit tarts, bring this food increasingly often on the table. A simple layer cake with filling and frosting made of confectioners' sugar and uncooked orange juice is another popular dish that uses a small quantity of the fresh juice. The mother who is anxious to have her family eat oranges as often as possible will think of additional ways in which orange juice can be included in the ordinary diet to give the meals a pleasant variety and a greater food value. LETTUCE SOUP IS EXCELLENT Three Foods That Are Sometimes Wasted Can Be Made Into Most Nourishing Dish. Skim milk, stale bread and the outer leaves of lettuce—three foods that are sometimes wasted—can be made into a nourishing soup. The skim milk is a little richer even than whole milk in protein and, if used undiluted or practically so, as it is in the following recipe, it makes valuable protein dishes. It contains all the lime, too, of the milk. Lettuce Soup. 1 head lettuce, or 1 large slice stale the equivalent in bread the outer leaves Butter or other fat of lettuce if desired 1 small slice onion Salt and pepper 2 quarts skim milk Put the lettuce and onion through the meat chopper with the bread to save the juice. Put into a double boiler with the skim milk and cook until the lettuce is soft. To avoid overcooking the milk soften the lettuce in a small amount of the milk and cook the remainder only enough to heat it and to make the soup smooth. Add fat, if desired, and the salt and pepper. Other green vegetables such as string beans, spinach, asparagus or celery can be used instead of lettuce. OMELET THAT IS DIFFERENT Dish for Sunday Supper or Lunch That is Satisfying and Is Quite Easily Prepared. Sunday supper or lunch is a meal which must sometimes be expanded to admit unexpected company. A dish that is satisfying and easily made from materials usually kept on hand is recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture. Peanut-Butter Omelet. 4 tablespoons milk 1 teaspoon salt 6 tablespoons pea- 4 eggs nut butter Mix the peanut butter with the milk, add the well-beaten yolks of the eggs, and fold in the stiffly beaten whites. Cook the omelet in the usual way, and serve it folded on a hot platter with a cream or tomato sauce. Household Questions Never allow grease to burn on the outside of the frying pan. Scour it thoroughly every time it is used. Hang a curtain rod across a corner of the room you iron in. Place shirts and house dresses on hangers and hang them on the rod. When finished the rod can be taken off hooks and put away. Add sugar to your apple sauce after it is removed from the stove and it will remain light in color. Sugar cooked with the sauce turns it brown. Lettuce Soup. (@ 1933, Western Newspaper Union.) If this world affords true happiness, it is to be found in a home where love and confidence increase with years, where the necessities of life come without severe strain, where luxuries enter only after their cost has been carefully considered. We are told that wealth is a test of character—few of us have to submit to it. Poverty is the more usual test. It is difficult to be very poor and maintain one's self-respect.—A. Edward Newton. GOOD THINGS FOR EVERYBODY The following is a good standard recipe for tomato sauce: Mince fine a slice of salt pork cut one-eighth of an inch thick. Fry until light brown in color, then add one small onion finely-minced and a tablespoon f u. slice of salt pork cut one-eighth of an inch thick. Fry until light brown in color, then add one small onion finely-minced and a tablespoonful each of carrot, turnip and sweet pepper; brown lightly in the fat. Now add one and one-half quarts of tomatoes, if fresh, unpeeled; two cloves a sprig of parsley and celery, and half a bay leaf. Simmer covered one hour stirring occasionally. Rub all that will go through the colander and thicken with a tablespoonful each of butter and flour cooked together. Serve hot Tomato Soup.—Place one sweet pepper, one onion, one carrot and one turnip, all minced fine, in a saucepan. Add a sprig of parsley, one of celery, one leaf of cabbage, two cloves, two quarts of tomatoes and one quart of water. Cover and simmer one hour stirring often. Add salt and pepper to season, two teaspoonfuls of sugar—more if needed—strain through a colander and thicken with a tablespoonful each of butter and flour. This may be prepared in this manner when tomatoes are plentiful in the fall, canned, and the soup will be always ready. Macaroni for Luncheon.—Cook three-fourths of a cupful of macaroni broken into inch-pieces in boiling salted water until tender. Drain, rinse in cold water and drain well. Melt three tablespoonfuls of butter; cook in this a slice each of onion and carrot, then remove the vegetables, add two tablespoonfuls of flour, a little salt and a dash of pepper, one-half cupful each of beef broth and tomato purée, and cook until smooth and thickened. Add the macaroni to the sauce with one half cupful of grated cheese. Cover and let stand over hot water. Serve very hot. Half a cupful of chopped ham or other cooked meat with or without the cheese may be added. Purslane, belonging to the portu laca family, is a common weed, growing in sandy places. The little fleshy leaves are full of mineral salts and iron. They are cooked and served either hot or cold. I have loved the feel of the grass under my feet, and the sound of running streams by my side. The hum of the tree trees tops has always been good music to me, and the face of the fields has often comforted me more than the faces of men—John Burgeoughs. SEASONABLE GOOD THINGS A crisp green salad is always agree able and when served with the follow ing dressing is quite nourishing: Thousand Island Dress ing.—Put into a small fruit jar one-half cupful of olive oil, the juice of half a lemon and half an orange, a teaspoonful of onion juice, one-fourth teaspoonful each of cay enne pepper and salt Thousand Island Dress ing.-Put into a small fruit jar one-half cupful of olive oil, the juice of half a lemon, and half an orange, a teaspoonful of onion juice, one-fourth teaspoonful each of cayenne pepper and salt one teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce, one-fourth teaspoonful of mustard, three sprigs of parsley, chopped fine. Put on the rubber and cover and shake vigorously. Green pepper chopped may be added, and some enjoy the acid slightly softened by the addition of a teaspoonful of powdered sugar. Barbecue of Porterhouse.—Have a cut of porterhouse cut about three and one-half inches thick and containing a good piece of tenderloin. Trim into shape, removing most of the fat and skewering it into shape. Mix two tablespoonfuls of dry mustard with one teaspoonful each of salt and white pepper with a little cayenne, add to these four tablespoonfuls of creamed butter and rub the mixture well into the meat on both sides and edges. Place on a grate over a pan and set under the gas flame. Have two tablespoonfuls of olive oil mixed with one teaspoonful of Worcestershire sauce and brush the steak every five minutes with this mixture, reducing the heat after the surface of the steak is seared. Cook forty-five minutes. The brush should be dipped into the drip from the pan after the juice of the steak has begun to drip. Rub with more mustard with the molested brush, just before it goes to the table. Barbecued Mutton.—Make a sauce by melting two tablespoonfuls of butter; to this add the juice of half a good-sized lemon, one-quarter cupful of currant jelly, one-quarter teaspoonful of prepared mustard, one-half teaspoonful of salt, a few dashes of cayenne and one teaspoonful of grated orange peel. Reheat the thin slices of mutton in this sauce. Serve steaming hot; but do not cook. Neele Maxwell The Kitchen Cabinet (©. 1923, Western Newspaper Union.) Somehow, in poetry, as nowhere else, there flows along, side by side with words skillfully used, a current that carries us beyond the intrinsic value of the sense. GOOD HEALTH FOODS Use the whole wheat fresh from the granary when obtainable, soak over night and simmer until each kernel is cracked and surrounded with cooked starch Serve with top milk or cream without sugar. A dish of night and summer until each kernel is cracked and surrounded with cooked starch. Serve with top milk or cream without sugar. A dish of this may be cooked, kept in a cool place and served two or three times a week. Bran Muffins.—The alimentary tract needs a good brushing occasionally to cleanse it and to stimulate the action of the digestive juices. Bran taken in spoonfuls in a glass of cold water, or stirred into any breakfast food is good, but in the form of hot muffins it is especially agreeable. Mix together one and one-half cupfuls of flour and the same of wheat bran, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, one-half teaspoonful of soda, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder and one teaspoonful of salt. Beat one egg, add one-half tablespoonful of minced parsley, one cupful of molasses and one and one-half cupfuls of milk. Pour the liquid into the dry mixture and stir until smooth. The batter should be quite thin. Add two tablespoonfuls of melted shortening and pour into well-greased muffin pans and bake until firm and brown. Raisins may be added if desired. Onlon Chowder.—Peel six or eight large onions, slice very thin and cook in four tablespoonfuls of melted butter or pork fat until a light yellow. Add three cupfuls of diced potatoes, one-eighth of a teapoonful of pepper and one quart of boiling water. Season with two teapoonfuls of salt, one-quarter of a teapoonful of sage or marjoram and cook slowly until the potatoes are tender. Add three cupfuls of hot milk and serve with crackers. Cabbage Salad.—Shred cabbage to make one and one-half cupfuls. Soak in cold water for half and hour, drain and salt well. Mix one and one-half cupfuls of diced celery with one cupful of pecan nuts, one-half cupful of diced pineapple and French dressing to season. Let stand to marinate and serve on lettuce or cabbage leaves; garnish with bits of red pepper. Though we can't have all we desire, Things could be worse, I'll say; See that your labor's worth your hire, And you'll come out O. K. Keep smiling on the long, hard hike, And take a cheerful view; And if you can't do what you like, Try liking what you do. -Jake McLuke THINGS GOOD TO EAT This is the season of the year when we may revel in the sweets from the maple trees. Fortunate indeed are they who may have this delicious syrup from their own sugar trees, as the price on the market is largely prohibitive to the ordinary pocketbook. POT Hot sirup boiled and poured over a pan of snow or ice until a wax is formed is one of the most delicious sweets for the children. Baking powder biscuit dough rolled out into rectangular form, spread with butter, then with scraped maple sugar, rolled up, cut into half-inch slices and baked, is another happy way to serve the maple flavor. Plain ice cream served with nuts and maple sauce is an ice which leaves nothing to be desired. Ripe Olive Salad.—Take one package of cream cheese, break with a fork and mix with two tablespoonfuls of orange juice; when soft enough to mold add ten ripe olives cut very fine and mold the mixture into small balls; roll these in minced parsley and arrange on lettuce. Serve with French dressing. Orange Cookies.—Cream one-half cupful of butter, add one cupful of sugar and the grated rind of an orange, one well-beaten egg; alternate one half cupful of orange juice with two and one-half cupfuls of flour sifted with four teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Set on ice to chill. Roll and cut, sprinkle each cooky with granulated sugar and bake in a quick oven. Be sure that the orange juice is strained as the pulp when baked is apt to be bitter. French String Beans.—Use either fresh or canned beans. Melt one tablespoonful of sweet lard and add one-half of a clove of garlic, cut in waffer-like slices. Cook for five minutes, remove from the fat, add a tablespoonful of finely minced parsley, turn the beans into the fat, mixing all together. Serve very hot. Gypay Stew.—Prepare and cook to together young onions, small new potatoes, carrots and green peas. Fry a slice of salt pork, diced, add to the mixture when cooked, and milk and seasoning to taste. Serve as a vegetable. Neville Maxwell THE COLORADO STATESMAN II RELIABLE chronicle of their doingsgress; a faithful mi their wants, their hoir best aspiration.

AFTERNOON frocks express a most exquisite mood in pastel-colored crepes. Quality, color and classic lines are the three graces which go to make up the charm of these ravishing gowns. Beauty unadorned is the master touch, attained through manipulation of fabric. Cunning trickeries, such as pictoting the edge rather than hemming, tucking, hemstitching, using milliner folds of the fabric in basket weave, making rosettes of self-material, find inter- ELLE BELLE E. L. J. L. B. CITRON-COLORED CREPE FROCK presentation throughout the lovely monotone crepe frocks now so fashionable. Illustrating this mode, is the citron-colored crepe frock in the picture herewith. The draped skirt is typical of the mode, and the rosettes at the girdle are a trimming feature noticeable throughout this season's cosumes. Apricot, almond green, orchid, cycamen pink, citron, twine color and rainbow combinations, also various 1 1 5 UNIQUE AND ORNATE HANDBAGS ubtie shades of hydrangea blue are featured in afternoon crepe or georgette frocks. When in doubt, "plait the fabric" seems to be an accepted law in the styling of soft silken gowns, be they plain colored or figured. Apron front traperies find many admirers and the dea is carried out in interesting ways. A round apron is bordered about with a six-inch knife plaiting with a sash tie at the back. The same dressmaker could make this deachable, thus varying the style of the gown according to the occasion, that is, assuming it be worn over a straightline one-piece frock. Intricate drawn work lends distinction to crepe costumes; in fast is really important among self-trims. With this rows of fancy feather-attaching are interspersed and many interesting designs are worked out in his way. The introduction of lace yokes and sleeves matched in color to the silk wepe of the dress finds further elaboration in the addition of several tounces of lace on the skirt portion. It's the little things which count. a number black dress is relieved of --- its mourning aspect with a strand of colorful beads, or fanciful pendent earrings, as are now the extreme of mode, or possibly a bit of a gay little kerchief caught in a ribbon wrist-band or tucked in the girdle just so. A real sensation in the way of accessories is making progress toward developing into a widespread fad, namely, bright colored, fanciful, low shoes, either to match the costume or to contrast. Imagine, if you please, the charming effects which the com- 10 ing months hold in promise. A dainty handkerchief to match the colorful shoes, sets off a dark frock wonderfully. Pastel colored slippers with lingerie frocks or matched to light tinted crepe gowns, are also a forecast for this summer. Chief among ornamental accessories are handbags and there are legions of either imported or domestic origin at disposal, not to mention the many beautiful ones "home made." and let L not that word detract from their merit and charm. There is the advantage of individuality when the personal creative touch is imparted to one's costume. A very handsome bag can be fashioned by deft fingers from wide moive ribbon, corded and shirred as shown in the picture to the left. If one has the genius of the milliner a hat of the same ribbon can be evolved, and this two-piece set will enhance the costume's appearance. Two handsome bags are shown in this illustration centering interest in leather versus rich fabric. The mode to the left is black patent leather with cutouts revealing a white kid foundation. Persian coloring and design are the charm of the heavy tapestry bag to the right. Many of the newer beaded bags take to Egyptian motifs and colors. The design is usually set in a relief o color on a ground of steel or copper colored beads. Julia Bottomley (©, 1973, Western Newspaper Union.)
