VOL. XXIX. $100,000 NEGRO ESTABLISHE Mexican Governor Seeks Co lishing Health Rese and Negr MEXICALL, Baja, Mexico, May 8. (Pacific Coast News Bureau.) (Special to THE COLORADO STATESMAN.)—Seeking an opportunity to bring about a better understanding between the Mexican people and the colored Americans through the establishment of a lasting memorial to the increasing friendship between the two races, one of the most important meetings that has ever been held between the two races was recently held in the beautiful San Francisco Cafe in Tia Juana, Mexico. Among those present were Lic. J. Incocente Lugo, Governor of Lower California; Louis G. Beltram, Mayor of Ensenada; R. D. Manriguis, Mayor of Tia Juana; W. P. Jorres, Mayor of Mexicali; Jose J. Montes, Chief of Police of Tia Juana; Robt. P. Fite of Los Angeles, formerly efficiency, expert of the Ford Motors Co., of New York, and Hugh E. MacBeth, General Counsel of the International Community Welfare League of Los Angeles. To Establish $100,000 Sanitarium As a result of this conference plans were drawn and definitely concluded to erect a $100,000 health sanitarium at the sulphur springs in the Santa Clara Valley, Lower California. The sanitarium is to be built in units costing $10,000 per unit; the first unit having been subscribed by Mayor Louis G. Beltram of Ensenada in behalf of the Mexican residents of the Ensenada district, and who will be asked to purchase "bricks" at 50 cents each as a donation to assist in building this sanitarium which will be shared without discrimination by all citizens of Mexico, regardless of race or color. Other units will be secured by the Mexican citizens at the solicitation of Mayor Beltram who has been appointed by Governor Lugo as superintendent of the campaign throughout Lower California. Under the supervision of Robt. P. Fite, formerly efficiency expert of the Ford Co. of New York, and later general distributor of the Chevrolet throughout Southern California, with a reputation as the only representative that has ever sold $1,000,000 worth of Chevrolets retail in ninety days, the citizens of Southern California and other communities will be asked to subscribe for the remaining units. An Eleemosynary Institution Ten acres upon which is located the noted sulphur springs has been donated by the Lower California Mexican Land and Development Co., a Negro syndicate of Los Angeles, and deeded to the Sanitorium Corporation, which as an eleemosynary organization is composed of colored, white and Mexican personages, philanthropically inclined, who are interested in promoting a better feeling between the three races throughout Mexico where the Negro and other colored races are welcomed without prejudice. An Ideal Location The sulphur springs, noted by the Mexicans for years for their medicinal qualities, lie in the beautiful Santa Clara valley, about forty miles by auto from the thriving Mexican seaport city of Ensenada; and sixty miles from the Southern California city of San Diego.

Masons Offered Health Sanitarium in Mexico Mexico Desires Co-operation of Negro Fraternal Societies. Indianapolis, Ind., May 9.—(Pacific Coast News Bureau.)—Dr. Sumner A. Furniss, a prominent colored physician of Indianapolis, and a prominent Masonic official, has received a communication from Louis G. Beltram, mayor of the Mexican city of Ensenada, Lower California, and a member of the International Community Welfare League in which he (Furniss) is asked to extend to the United Supreme Council A. A. Scottish Rites, Masons of the Northern Masonic Jurisdiction during its annual session to be held in Philadelphia, starting May 13th, an invitation to use the Negro-Mexican Sanitarium to be erected near Ensenada, for the benefit of the order's tubercular dependents whose health would be benefited by an indefinite sojourn at such a health resort. The Northern Masonic Jurisdiction comprises 123 chartered organizations and over 5,000 membership. Klan Called "Salesmen of Hate" in World's Work for May. New York City, May 4.—(N. A. A. C. P. Press Service.)—Writing under the title "Salesmen of Hate: The Ku Klux Klan," Robert L. Duffus begins in the May World's Work, New York City, a series of articles exposing that organization. According to Mr. Duffus, the Imperial Wizard of the Klan, William Joseph Simmons, "kept his accounts carelessly, wasted money in various ways, and from a business man's point of view was hopelessly incompetent." The development of the Klan was due to the efforts of Edgar Young Clarke, the Imperial Kleagle and Mrs. Tyler, who, according to Mr. Duffus, received during fifteen months more than $212,000 in profits. One of the chief means of publicity for the Ku Klux Klan was a series of articles appearing during January, 1921, in the New York Herald. According to Mr. Duffus, "Emperor Simmons is now an invalid, and real control of the Klan is vested in Hiram Wesley Evans, a dentist from Dallas, Texas, the center of the movement being regarded by many Klansmen as doing Dallas, rather than Atlanta, Ga. --- DEWEY C.

C. P. Press Service.)—The Century Magazine for May publishes a story by Mary Johnston, entitled "Nemesis," showing the effect upon the white men in a small southern town of the burn- ing of a colored men. After the lynch- hate flames up in the town. One man develops pains for which the doctor can find no remedy. Another comes to hate everybody and every- thing. A third, after locking himself for days in his house, hangs himself after shooting his dog. The story, which shows the break- down of fellowship and of civilization that are the consequence of lynch- ing, is a strong argument against the law- less release of passion in mob murder. Colored Assemblyman Presides at California Legislature. Frederick M. Roberts Applauded as He Wields Gavel at State Legislature. Sacramento, Calif., May 12.—(Pacific Coast News Bureau.)—(Special to The COLORADO STATESMAN,)—For the first time in the history of California and the entire West, a Negro presided over the State Legislature during the debate over one of the most important measures to come up before the California Legislature, when Frederick M. Roberts, assemblyman from the Seventy-fourth District in the city of Los Angeles, and the only colored member in either house, recently was called to the chair in the debate on the three-quarters jury bill. When Speaker Merriam called upon Mr. Roberts to assume the gavel, the colored assemblyman, who is serving his third session as an assemblyman, was greeted with applause from his fellow members The preceding day the Assembly passed and sent to the Senate the following bill introduced by Assemblyman Roberts: "To require booking officers at prisons to give receipt for property taken from prisoners at time of arrest." Houston, Tex., Boy Joins Hero Ranks by Saving White Boy 12-Year-Old Negro Plunges Into White Oak Bayou and Rescues Little Six-Year-Old. Houston, Texas—Because Norman Blackwell, 12-year-old Negro boy, who lives at 1920 Holly street, had in him the stuff of which heroes are made, Jamie Quarles, a 7-year-old white boy, still is alive. Jamie was playing with several other white boys along White Oak bayou at the foot of Holly street Tuesday, April 24, at dusk. Suddenly he made a misstep and pitched headlong into the waters. The children with him became frightened and fled. Their screams reached another group of boys, Negroes, playing further up the hillside. But these could not at first determine what was wrong. Then Blackwell acted. Tearing his cont from his back as he ran, the colored boy reached the scene as Jamie was going down for the third time. He plunged into the water, still far from warm, and with sure strokes made for the drowning lad. Grasping him by the collar, he dragged him back to safety. Jamie's mother, who had been summoned by her boy's little comrades, reached the bayouunk within a few moments after Jamie had been saved. Thanking the Negro youth for his bravery, she declared: "I want Jamie to remember always that he owes his life to your bravery. If the time ever comes when he can save another's life, I want him to be just as brave as you." Jamie apparently was none the worse for his close call, but his rescuer did not escape so luckily. Because of his exposure and the effort involved in bringing the white boy back to solid earth, young Blackwell was under the care of a physician at his home at 1920 Holly street. The Negro youth is a student at the Booker T. Washington school. NO. 30. Negro in America One Hundred Years Ahead South African Educator Is Greatly Pleased With Race's Progress Here—Sets Standard for World—Africa Offers Field of Service for Trained American Negroes. Atlanta, Ga.—Special.)—That the Negro in America is in every way a hundred years ahead of the natives of South Africa, is the statement of Dr. James Henderson, a noted educator from that country, who is spending a few months in America in the study of race relations and Negro education. This is due, he said, to the fact that the American Negro came much earlier into contact with Christian civilization and has had far greater opportunities for education and self-development. He was particularly impressed with the economic progress which the race has made in this country, which he said was far beyond anything he had expected. Dr. Henderson has given his life to the education of the natives of British South Africa, having been for many years principal of Lovedale Institute, the great African Tuskegee, a missionary institution with a faculty of sixty and a student body of 900. While in Atlanta he visited a number of Negro colleges and was greatly pleased with them, commenting most favorably on their fine equipment, competent and devoted teachers and intelligent students. A number of well-trained American Negroes, he said, are rendering fine service in Africa as teachers and social workers. Wherever they have been tried they have made good, was his emphatic testimony. He believes that the number of such workers will greatly increase and that in this way the educated American Negro is destined to make a great contribution to Africa's development. The good will work of the Interracial Commission, of which he had heard in Africa where its methods are beginning to be adopted, interested Dr. Henderson greatly. The problems of race relations, he said, are much more difficult there than here, and much further from solution. It was his opinion that the progress of the American Negro is setting a new standard for the world in the development of backward peoples. From Atlanta Dr. Henderson went to Tuskegee Institute. Crowd Sees Lieut. Julian in Daring Parachute Jump New York, May 4.—Fifty thousand persons of both races crowded the streets of Harlem to witness the parachute jump of 3,500 feet from an airplane by Lieut. Herbert Julian, Sunday afternoon. Arrangements had been made and Lieut. Julian was to have landed in the vacant lot at 139th and 140th streets, between Seventh and Lenox avenues, where a band and committee awaited him. Because of a stiff southern wind Julian jumped from the plane at 110th street. He landed unhurt on top of a building at Eighth avenue, where thousands had gathered to watch the landing. The crowds were so great that several big plate glass windows were smashed along Eighth avenue and 140th street. After the landing the aviator was carried to the Renaissance Casino, where he addressed a large audience who awaited him. The English plane from which Julian jumped was piloted by Capt. Edison McVey, one of the few licensed pilots of our race. Y. M. C. A. Honor Roll to Date Y. M. C. A. Honor Roll to Date Adams, Jas. G., Allen, John S., American Furniture Co., Anderson, J.

SPARK FROM TOOL IGNITING GAS CAUSE OF DISASTER Corsicana, Texas. — Instantaneous death was meted out to at least sixteen men working on the G. K. Hughes Developing Company's McKee No. 1 well, ten miles southeast of here, with a possibility of the number of dead reaching twenty-five, when the monster well exploded. A spark from a hammer of a rock as the control valve was being changed at the well ignited the oil and gas from the gusher. A crew of twenty men who came from Mexia had not been accounted for. The crew was working in the near vicinity of the well when it caught fire. The bodies of five men have been recovered and are so badly charred that identification is impossible. Two other charred bodies located near the well could not be reached, so intense is the heat from the blazing inferno. The death list reads: W. A. Hicks, Wortham, Texas; James Phillips, Kerens, Texas; L. C. Cook, Kerens, Texas; Dan Phillips, Kerens, Texas; L. C. Sheek, Dallas, Texas; Fred Craig, Roane, Texas; Edwin C. Cooper, Corsicana; Jack Cooper, Corsicana; S. P. Allen, Corsicana; M. O. Turner, Mississippi; city unknown; Max Melsner, Corsicana; Travis Owen, Corsicana. Four unidentified bodies. Fatally burned, Emmet Bird, Corsicana. One man, a Mr. Simmons, who was on the derrick floor with the crew, escaped by running. His clothing, not being oil soaked, did not ignite. A 15-year-old boy escaped with him. The officials of the developing company are making a check of the men working. One man said that the bodies of the dead men were where they fell when the blast occurred and with the well still burning it would be impossible for some time to remove them. A number of automobiles near the well were reported to have been destroyed by the fire. Word of the tragedy was telephoned to Corsicana with urgent call that all available doctors, medical supplies and ambulances be rushed to the scene. The dead and injured were brought to Corsicana. The injured were placed in the Physicians and Surgeons' Hospital. According to an eye witness the crew was on the derrick floor changing the control head when suddenly there was a flash of fire, followed by two other flashes, the fire shooting over 100 feet in the air. All the trees and shrubbery around the well were saturated with oil and the ground was quickly burned clear. Abolish Hereditary Titles London.—A bill to abolish hereditary titles was introduced in the House of Commons by the Hon. Arthur Ponsonby, who was page of honor to Queen Victoria, and is a descendant of the great premier, Earl Grey. The bill was advanced to second reading in the House of Commons despite the frenzied protests of the Tories, amid the wild cheers of the labor members. Sugar Speculation Suit Lost New York.—Judge Mayer announced here that the government's application for an injunction to restrain the New York Coffee and Sugar Exchange and the New York Coffee and Sugar Association from dealing in sugar futures had been denied Washington.—The refusal of Federal Judge Mayer in New York to enjoin the New York Sugar exchange from dealing in sugar futures may result in a direct appeal which will bring the case without delay before the Supreme Court. Aviators Seek Approval of Records San Diego, Calif.-Aviators, reserve aviators and aviation enthusiasts here recently started a movement to send appeals to the Federation Aeronautique International in the hope that the flight by Lieutenants Kelly and MacReady from New York to San Diego may be officially registered as a new world record for distance. It is planned to send many telegrams to the headquarters at Washington of the National Aeronautical Association, American representatives of the F. A. L., as the international body is known. Cars Collide In Snow Storm Detroit, Mich.—Eight persons were hurt, several critically, when an interurban car crashed into a street car. The interurban motorman could not see the street car on account of clouds of snow. The street car had just backed onto a "Y," and before the motorman could close the switch the interurban ran into the open switch. Vestibules of both cars were wrecked. Walter Hope, motorman of the street car, is believed to have had both legs fractured. PUBLIC TRUSTEE'S SALE. No. 2290. Whereas, Laura A. McLellan and Allen A.

N. A. A. C. P. Campaign Launched for Federal Anti-Lynch Law. Representative Dyer Has Begun Speaking Tour in the West. New York City, May 4.—The campaign to have the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill enacted into law by the next United States Congress is under way, according to announcement today by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City. Representative Dyer has begun his speaking tour under the auspices of the N. A. A. C. P., having already spoken in Kansas City, Springfield, Ill., Omaha and Denver. Representative Dyer is using as one of his arguments for federal action against lynching, the recent mob murder of James T. Scott, colored janitor of the University of Missouri, who was hanged from a bridge while protesting his innocence of an alleged attempt at assault, while the father of the girl alleged to have been attacked pleaded in vain with the mob to give its victim a trial. At the Springfield, III., mass meeting which he addressed, Representative Dyer said of his measure: "The bill is not sectional in its scope nor is it aimed at any particular part of the country. It simply provides justice for the survivors of those lynched no matter of what race or creed or color. The Anti-Lynching Bill provides a federal hearing for those active in the crime and will necessitate investigation by government authorities and trial in the federal court for the lynchers."

Due to his efforts during the past six years, a great transformation has taken place in the commer- cial district of Denver, Louis Straub has served the people of his district in the legis- lative branch of the city government for the past six years. A resident of District No. 7 for thirty-seven years, he has kept in constant touch with the needs of his immediate locality as well as the city at large. In the City Council he was always the leader in all movements for public improvements, beautification of the city and better business conditions, All important improvements ac- complished during the past six years have been under his guidance or have had his active support. He is in favor of building a new city and county building, at a location to be designated by a vote of the people. Mr. Straub has plans under way for the construction of a new and up-to-date fire station at the intersection of Speer Boulevard, Thirteenth and Champa Streets, on property now owned by the city. Mr. Straub fathered a bill to defray the expense of the Ameri- can Federation, of Labor Convention in Denver. He has always been friendly to labor, and in recognition of his great work he is now endorsed by labor for this position. A forward looking man, always alive to the needs of the times, an untiring servant of the people, he again seeks the place he has so creditably filled for six years. Tied to no party, he scorns poli- ticlans who would capitalize public office for private gain. Inde- pendent and fearless, he seeks office only that he may serve his city and its people. ‘This great record of achievements and proposed improvements must not be stopped now. A true representative of all the people, Mr. Straub should be returned to serve them for the next two years. “500,000 in 1930" | LOUIS STRAUB | X | “500,000 in 1930" PUT AN (X) AFTER HIS NAME (This ad paid for by a friend) VOTE FOR For Councilman District No. 8 A man who help make Denver.

Again we say that the men for Mayor and,councilmen must be quali- fied and that thoroughly, if they are to be real representatives of the people. They must take a stand against every bill that has for its pur- pose any un-American feature, resolving to engage their best powers of reasoning to advance the interests of the citizens of Denver. No man haying any selfish purpose to serve, can be of that public service to war- rant anything good or successful, and voters should exercise the utmost care in making their choice next Tuesday. Following closely the actions of the Mayor and present council, the many and varied improvements of the city, the people are in a~better po- sition to know the responsibility resting upon the shoulders of a council- man, and therefore the idea of supporting or voting for a candidate for friendship sake or some ulterior motive must be thrust aside, and a larger view—the benefit and advancement of the city and its people—taken if our city government must be run successfully. Use the franchise conscientiously, electing the men that will stand by us when we are assailed and assaulted as a race, and who will place a higher value on their positions as representatives of the people, doing all they can for the uplift of the city and its people rather than become the victims of the machinations of a few who claim themselves THE POWERS THAT BE. Go to the polls early on Tuesday, May 15, and vote for the candidates whose interests are identified with yours, and whom you can depend on to hear your grievance and faithfully represent you with fairness to all. Remember those who have served faithfully and given satisfaction to our Denver public without special favor or interest to any particular class of citizens. MOTHER'S DAY EAUTIFUL in thought, reverent in meditation, but far more beautiful B ‘and reverential in the observance, Mother's Day has rightfully become the most absorbing and exalting institution of our present day civill- zation. Sunday next is set aside as Mother's Day the nation over. There are but two other days iv our calendar year that out rank it in import- ance. The one is Christmas and the other is Easter, and like them, Mother's Day, is given its greatest observance in the churches. Divinity and worship casts a halo around the world's motherhood today 4s truly ag that encircling the Christ or glorifying His resurrection. Flowers will bedeck the altars of churches and the coat lapels of men whose visage, hardened by the business care of the world is softened for the day, as memory takes him to the shrine of Mother living or to the grave of Mother dead. Sunday School hours will be filled with song and recitation, ap- propriately set to Mother's Day; sermons will be preached and anthems rendered; unbidden tears will come to the eyes or joy planted in the heart, us may be betokened by the white or red carnation, Let us for this oc- casion recall the beautiful simile of a noted evangelist a number of years Ago, who, in a sermon told of how an angel came from heaven to earth and sought to take back to heaven the most beautiful of earth's rich blessings. Passing a gdrgeous flower garden the angel paused long and beheld many rare and beautiful flowers. Selecting one after much effort the angel felt that the earthly mission was ended and so passed on, when behold a young babe in a cradle was encountered and the sweet baby smile seemed even more radiant and beautiful than the fragrant flower. Being unable to decide the angel concluded to take both back to heaven and just at the point of leaving came upon a mother’s love. Here was an un- looked for element of such sweetness, delicacy and beauty that the angel was again puzzled. But the hour of departure from earth to heaven had arrived, a decision must be made and so the angel started on the return Journey with all three of the priceless jewels found upon earth. However, upon reaching the portals of heaven it was found that the flower had withered, the baby’s smile had vanished, but the mother love abided still in all its pristine glory, imperishable and infinitely supreme.” What a truism brought forth by metaphor. Mother's Day {s essentially a day of tribute, a tribute to the joys and sufferings, the dreams and anguish, the sacrifices and triumphs born of that mystery of mysteries—a mother's love, JUDGE NOT NDING the findings of the jury and th sentence upon John Mitchell Jr., for al lling the affairs of the Mechanics Savings AN believes that all friends of the crush nt and give him the benefit of the doub has served his day and generation well. d for more than thirty years has been sii fark” among us.

Had he been the tru 1e too” species willing to stand upon one f fo accept any humiliation heaped upon hi OTWITHSTANDING the findings of the jury and the imposing of a N three year sentence upon John Mitchell Jr., for alleged irregulari- ties in handling the affairs of the Mechanics Savings Bank, the COLO- RADO STATESMAN believes that all friends of the crushed leader should withhold judgment and give him the benefit of the doubt. Mr. Mitchell has served his day and generation well, He was a great race champion and for more than thirty years has been singled out as one of the “Men of Mark” among us. He has been fearless and this very ele- ment may have led to his downfall. Had he been the truckling type, had he been of the “me too” species willing to stand upon one foot, with his hat in hand, willing to accept any humiliation heaped upon his people without protest, it is highly probable that the present trouble would never have oc- curred. Mr. Mitchell personally was getting along alright in Virginia. As editor of the Richmond Planet, president of a bank and leader of Negro fraternal orders, he was respected, honored and powerful. Had he pos- sessed no other perspective in life we opine that all would have been well. But John Mitchell wanted things for his race. He arose above self and struck out against all who would oppress those of his flesh and blood. And today he is paying the price of fearless leadership. How many of those for whom he has battled, for whom his paper spoke, for whom his charity was sought and for whom his voice was raised will now speak out in his behalf. The end is not yet. The prison doors have not closed on John Mitchell and may never do so. But whatever the final verdict let it be our part to remember the man for his great good in the past and “Judge not, lest ye be judged.” Adv. E. V.

Ordinary housework taxes their strength with its constant trips to the bed rooms, the upper hall- ways, etc. An extension telephone saves steps, averts ill- ness and stops that eternal drain upon vitality which comes from frequent hurrying trips up- stairs or down to answer the ringing of the tele- phone bell.

' But we can never forget her of whose suffering we were born, who cradied us in her arms, baptized us with her tears and sanctified our lips with her prayers. Home is where mother is, and no chisel, brush or language can describe the beauty and bravery of her devotion. The world is what mother makes it. Her hand has always snd everywhere directed the steps of youth. Beyond any gen- eral’s plan of preparedness for war are a mother’s plans for the purity, peace and prosperity of her children.

The program was interesting and was rendered by exceptional talent, Foun- ders Day will ever be remembered as a memorial to the life, character and helpfulness of Lucy Ann (mother) Phillips, born 1804, died May 5th, 1910. Hers was the true faith, a firm un- shaken conviction and beautiful trust and repose in her religion, her God, and her Church, She was never known to relinquish her reliance upon the Higher Power, whose bounteous love and éver watchful care her own character confessed and __ glorified. Hers was a practical religion; she, of all persons, made the Divine {n- Junction of usefulness the rule of her daily life, and never was seen a more self-sacrificing character, a more self- abnegating spirit, and more watchful regard for the comfort and interest of ‘others, than was exhibited by Mother Phillips. Mr. William Ashford addressed the congregation and stated: “Mother Phillip came to Cheyenne in 1867. Cheyenne was a tent town; she lo- cated and went on~her mission. In the year 1878 bought a lot and organ- ized a number of persons and bound them into a band of workers to as- sist her in the cause. Freely she gave and cheerfully she wrought, ‘When appearance seemed cloudy to others Mother would say “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.’ ‘Let not your heart be troubled.’ Diligent: ly she solicited, prayerfully she went about the work. First a frame was erected and then the brick church which is now occupied by our people.” Mr. Asbford’s address was lengthy and quoted many interesting events in the life of Mother Phillips. Mrs. Frank Gaskin read a brief his- tory of the life of Mrs. Phillips. Mrs. Clarence J, oliver read a_ brief sketch of the lives of early members of Allen Chapel. Mrs. Toliver was an infant when the present building was erected and was spiritually rearer in Allen Chapel. She is the Senior Stewardess In years of service. She is one who is ever ready to do her bit for her Christ and her church. Mrs. James Smith, our talented so- prano, sang “My Faith in Thee.” Mrs Smith was in true form and never sung better or sweeter on any other oceasion. Mrs, Smith was accompa: nied by Mrs. W. T. Thornton as was Mrs. Beulah Jones who sang “Preci- ous Words.” The ladies are compli mented for ever readiness to serve the community. Mrs. Ollie P. Redd read Interesting statistics on race education. ‘The program closed with remark: by Rev. W. T. Thornton and Rev Blackman, pastor of theCongregation ‘al Church. The Wyoming State Baptist Con- vention convened at the First Baptist Chureh during the past week was en- tertained by spiritual songs by quar- tettes from the Second Baptist Church, composed of Rev. 8.

Candidate for Re-election, Councilman District No. $ THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE RIGHT PLACE, as not only is he familiar with the workings of municipal government, but possesses: the qualifications to run the same on an economical basis without detriment to the public. Anyone who knew him in the years gone by and followed his career as councilman of District No. 8, is con- versant with his policy—-THE PEOPLE FIRST—and to return hint to the position of councilman on Tuesday next is an assurance of the confidence reposed in him by the people. Mr. Horan Js the man that introduced the Broadway Extension ordinance, and in order to have it completed properly, he introduced the Broadway Extension Viaduct ordinance. He also had the alleys paved in his district besides many other needed improvements. He merits the votes of the colored electors, as his popularity with them is due to the fact that he is the same Andrew Horan in and out of office, being an ever-ready listener to the complaints of the people he represents and always employs his best efforts to adjust matters satisfactorily to them and to the government. On the question of segregation, our acquaintanceship and dealing with Mr, Horan for thirty-five years in his treatment of the colored people in normal times and times of stress when he gave them employment, irrespective of race or color, and gave recognition in particular to those who measured up to and maintained self-respecting manhood and womanhood, is a signal proof that he is an American who stands for Americans. Be sure, then, and go early to the polls cn Tuesday, May 15th, and record your vote thus: ANDREW HORAN x | BOULDER COLO. NEWS We are having real sunshiny weath: er. It is a little cool but what of that. The flowers and buds are peep- ing out, the blossoms on the trees are blooming out. It truly is a pretty pleture.

EARLY SPRING GREENS Many people if they had a taste of some of our noxious weeds would consider them very appetizing. They are not gathered and placed in the market as are water cress, spinach, and asparagus. A bunch of tender shoots of the milk weed cooked and dressed with a sauce like asparagus will be found especially conside petizing gather the ma- cress, s- agus, a shoots cooked a sauce will be good at this season. All we need to do, to have a splendid blood purifier this spring, is to go out and gather the greens. Boil them until nearly tender in boiling water—just as little as possible—then add salt and finish cooking. Drain, cut several times with a sharp knife, pour over melted butter, pork fat, ham or bacon fat and serve them very hot. If any are left, mold in small cups, garnish with hard cooked egg, and serve with French dressing. In washing greens great care should be taken to look over each leaf. If the greens grow in sandy soil, soak them in a deep pail of water so that the sand will drop to the bottom. Spinach leaves are so deeply indented that they need great care in cleansing. Usually the water which clings to the leaf is sufficient to cook them. Wild mustard is a favorite green which may be used until the black mustard which is grown in our vegetable gardens is ready for the table. It may be served like lettuce or in combination with it. To serve it like wilted lettuce, pour hot bacon fat and vinegar with seasonings over it. Cowslip or marsh marigold is commonly found greens. They are delicious cooked and served as one does spinach. Lamb's-quarters is a good green but needs one which has some snap to it to give flavor. Mustard is especially good with it. Sour dock comes early; yellow dock and sorrel are both good. Sorrel makes a nice soup, boiled with beef stock and served with buttered toast. The acid of the sour dock is especially good for the blood. Pigweed, horseradish leaves mixed with other greens make a good flavored dish. It matters not how deep entrenched the wrong. How hard the battle goes, the day how long; Faint not; fight on! Tomorrow comes the song! Be strong! FOODS OF VARIOUS KINDS We hear much of the Mexican tamales. The word means dumpling in Spanish or a meat patty. With not a world-wide experience in the profess ionally made tamale, so far they have been anything but edible. There Spanish or a meat patty. With not a world-wide experience in the professionally made tamale, so far they have been anything but edible. There seems to be no reason why they may not be made at home, properly cooked and seasoned, to taste more palatable than half-cooked corn meal seasoned with more red pepper than is wholesome for any stomach. Here is one recipe worth experimenting with: Take the meat from one-half of a boiled chicken, one clove of garlic, one-half of a medium-sized onion, one-fourth of a teaspoonful of cayenne pepper, one teaspoonful of salt, one cupful of corn meal, two or three small red peppers and a few corn husks. A tamale is a mixture of meat laid into a cake of cooked meal, then wrapped and tied in corn husks and boiled in chicken broth which contains a goodly amount of red pepper. Chop the chicken, as well as the other ingredients, and the onion and garlic. Form the meat and seasonings into rolls about two inches long and three-fourths of an inch in diameter. Pour boiling water over the corn meal to make a thick paste, stir and cook, adding salt. Pat out a tablespoonful of the paste, wrap the roll of chicken in it, then wrap each roll in the clean inside husks of corn which have been gathered and saved for just such purpose. The husk, if dry, should be scalded in hot water, for various reasons, not the most important, to soften it so that it will wrap easily. Tle and trim the tamales, drop into boiling chicken broth and cook until the corn meal has had time to be well cooked. Oyster Fritters.—Strain the liquor from a dozen oysters and carefull remove any bits of shell. Mince fine and prepare the following batter: one and one-half cupfuls of flour, one teaspoonful of salt, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one-half teaspoonful of pepper, two teaspoonfuls of finely-minced parsley, three quarters of a cupful of oyster liquor-mixed with milk, one egg. Mix well, then stir in the finely minced oysters. Drop by spoonfuls into hot fat. Brown quickly, drain and serve on a hot platter garnished with parsley. CONVENIENCE IN ANY HOUSEHOLD Serving Tray Saves Housewife's Time and Strength in Many Different Ways. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) A serving tray on castors or wheels, sometimes called a "wheel-tray," "tea-wagon," or "tea-cart," is a household convenience that saves the housewife's time and strength in many ways. A boy or man handy with simple tools can make one; a number of women, similarly skillful, have also made them. In a Virginia home recently a very successful wheel-tray was made out of an old washstand, utilizing the large drawer, the top, the framework, and other parts. To roll such a tray around conveniently, swivel castors may be provided from some discarded piece of furniture, small swivel wheels or the small wheels of a baby carriage or toy wagon. In the serving tray illustrated the wheels were evidently taken from a child's wagon. A wheel tray saves many trips between the dining room and kitchen, both in serving and in clearing away meals, especially in a large household where many dishes must be handled. The top and shelf spaces are sufficient to Wheel Tray Saves Many Trips Between Dining Room and Kitchen. carry all dishes to the table in one trip, or to remove them from it after the meal. Steps are saved by it in serving refreshments at social occasions. It is invaluable for use as a bedside tray in the sick room. When well made the tray is attractive as well as useful and may serve as a reading table or flower stand. It may be stained dark or enameled white to harmonise with the dining room and its furnishings. The space in the top may be used to keep dishes in, and the drawer will store silver and table linen. Dimensions for Tray. The United States Department of Agriculture recommends the dimensions given below for making a convenient serving tray which will go through doorways without danger of bumping. The upper part of the tray is box shaped, 18 inches wide and 26 inches long. The box part, or china compartment, is $4 \%$ inches deep. This is upheld by 4 legs, $ \% $ by $ 1 \% $ inches, which measure 31 inches from the floor to the top of the tray. It is best to edge the top of the tray or the Drawer Is Useful to Store Silver and Table Linen. Id of the china compartment by a molding $1\frac{1}{4}$ inches wide to prevent dishes from slipping off. The inside of the china compartment is painted white even if the outside of the tray is dark. On the sides of this compartment are little screw hooks on which cups may be hung. There is space in the compartment for serving dishes for six. Drawer for Silver or Linen. Below this serving compartment is a drawer 2 inches deep, which is divided into two parts. One side is used for linen and one side for silver. The side used for silver is lined with dark-colored felt or outing flannel. In the space below the drawer a large undershelf is fitted. It should be edged with molding about $1\frac{1}{4}$ inches wide, so that solled dishes may be safely placed on it. One handle may be put on if preferred, instead of the two shown in the illustration, for pulling or pushing the loaded tray about. These handles may be made from old broomsticks. Cleanse Marble Slab. To cleanse the marble slab cut a slice of lemon, dip it in salt and rub it over the marble; let it remain an hour, then wash the slab in the usual way. A mixture of saleratus and whiting will remove stains from marble. Warm a Knife-Board. Warm a knife-board before using it, and the knives will polish more easily. Should the cover of a knife-board wear through, a piece of linoleum may be need to replace it. DIFFERENT WAYS TO PREPARE VEGETABLES Special Care Should Be Taken to Preserve Peculiar Characteristic of Each Dish. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Bolling vegetables, although so common and usual a method, is only one of a variety of ways in which they may be prepared for the table. Each vegetable has certain characteristics for which it is liked, and the endearment in serving should be to emphasize the best qualities. If it is served because of its crisp texture, or its attractive color, or its distinctive flavor, or because it contains some particularly nutritious substance, special care should be taken to preserve that characteristic. The method of cooking selected depends somewhat on the place of the vegetable in the menu. A fried vegetable, or one baked in combination with a protein-rich material may be in texture and flavor an excellent substitute for meat. Young green peas have a delicacy of flavor and freshness of color that should be preserved by gentle, rather than violent cooking. Many persons eat raw celery for its crispness; therefore, after it is washed it should be put in a cold place so that it will have that texture. Since spinach is often recommended for children because of its vitamins and its high proportion of iron, every effort should be made to preserve these. Moreover, the method that brings out the good points of a vegetable generally conserves the food value. In general, vegetables should be cooked in small quantities of water to which salt has been added in the proportion of about one teaspoonful to a quart of water. Cabbage, onions, and other strong-flavored kinds, are sometimes exceptions to this rule and are cooked either in large quantities of water or even in two or three waters so that the flavor will be milder. If the cooking water is saved to flavor soups or sauces, there is no loss of minerals. Spinach, lettuce, and other tender leaf vegetables can be cooked without the addition of any water. They are succulent enough themselves and have enough water clinging to them after being washed so that they will not stick to the kettle if stirred carefully and not placed over too hot a fire at first. Some of the delicately flavored vegetables may be cooked by what has been called the "conservation" method. They are cooked slowly and gently in just enough water to prevent them from burning, and all this water is absorbed during the process. This often is recommended for green peas, string beans, and young carrots. Whenever possible vegetables should be cooked whole and without peeling. This applies particularly to the root and tuber kinds. If they must be cut, they lose less of their nutritious substances when cut lengthwise rather than crosswise. The water for cooking vegetables should be boiling when they are put into it. This helps to set the color of some kinds and shortens the time of cooking so that a smaller proportion of the minerals is extracted than when cold water is used. Starchy vegetables should be boiled gently in a covered kettle; green vegetables hold their attractive color better if cooked in an open vessel. All boiled vegetables should be drained as soon as they are tender. Overcooking is one of the most common mistakes in preparing vegetables for the table. The time of cooking varies greatly with the quantity of water used and the kind, size, and age of the vegetables. The following time-table is recommended by the experimental kitchen of the United States Department of Agriculture to be used as a general guide: Asparagus ..... 15-20 minutes Beans, lima (green) ..... 45-60 minutes Beans, string ..... 1-3 hours Beets, old ..... 3-4 hours Beets, young ..... 45-60 minutes Cabbage ..... 20-30 minutes Carrots ..... 30-60 minutes Cauliflower ..... 20-30 minutes Corn, green ..... 10-15 minutes Onions ..... 20-20 minutes Parsnips ..... 30-45 minutes Peas, green ..... 20-30 minutes Potatoes ..... 30-40 minutes Spinach ..... 15-20 minutes Squash ..... 20-30 minutes Turnips ..... 30-45 minutes OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Baste corset steels on the ends of rugs to prevent them from turning up. Potatoes that are pared before cooking lose much of their food value. It is better to cook them in their skins and remove the latter when cooked. Dry clean light and fancy linings by gentle steady rubbing with a swab of starch and whiting tied in soft silk or cheesecloth. A small quantity of glycerin, rubbed over glass after it has been cleaned, will help to keep it free from mistiness during variable weather conditions. To remove a cork which has been pushed into a bottle, tie a good knot in a piece of string, put the knot end into the bottle, shake the cork into the neck of the bottle, pull the string and the cork will come out with it.

HELPFUL HINTS Try cooking onions the next time in a double boiler in skim milk. Add butter and salt when the onions are tender and serve at once. WASHINGTON When opening a large bottle of olives, which are liable to spoil before all are used, take out the desired amount and pour over the top two or three tablespoonfuls of oil. The oil seals and keeps them from molding. A screw that is rusty or a nail which is obstinate about being removed may be encouraged with a few drops of oil and a heated screwdriver. When putting a nail into hardwood dip it in oil and it will drive much easier. When using cleaning powder on water faucets be careful to keep the gritty substance away from the joints. The powder is liable to cut away the threads as the faucet is turned frequently. In peeling onions do them under water and save the annoyance of shedding tears. Windows washed in clean soft water with a little bluing, using a chamois skin for washing and a dry one for wiping, will be shining and bright. A cork too tight to fit a bottle may be soaked in hot water, then used. Add a few drops of lemon juice to boiled rice; it adds to the flavor as well as to its appearance. **Brown Sauce for Boiled Tongue.**—Cook two tablespoonfuls of minced onion in two tablespoonfuls of butter until both are brown. Strain out the onion and add four tablespoonfuls of well-browned flour; stir and add one cupful of brown stock, a bay leaf, sprig of thyme and six peppercorns, all tied in a small piece of net or cheese cloth. Cook until the sauce is thick, then add one tablespoonful of vinegar. Extra seasonings, such as Worcestershire, tabasco or pepper sauce, may be substituted for the vinegar. Broiled Parsnips.—Wash and scrape parsnips until clean and cook in boiling water until tender. When cold cut in halves lengthwise, spread with melted butter and broil. There is a general agreement, except perhaps on the part of a few wayward ascetics, not only that health is a blessing, but that to the want of it may safely be ascribed no inconsiderable part of our present ethical and social problems.—James Harvey Robinson. EVERYDAY GOOD THINGS The following recipe is one recommended and used by many physicians Baking Pan Bran Bread.—Take four cupfuls of wheat bran, two cupfuls of whole wheat flour, three-quarters of a cupful of molasses (New Orleans), one teaspoonful each of salt and soa, two cupfuls of sweet milk, a little cream or shortening and a few raisins. Bake one hour. Corn Meal Gems.—Beat one egg, add one cupful of sour milk, one-half cupful of molasses, one teaspoonful of soda, one cupful of corn meal, one cupful of flour, one tablespoonful of butter or melted shortening; salt to taste. Bake in gem pans. This makes twelve. Graham Gems.—Take one cupful of graham flour, one cupful of sour milk, one beaten egg, one teaspoonful of soda, one-half teaspoonful of salt, two tablespoonfuls of sugar and three tablespoonfuls of shortening. Bake in gem pans. This recipe makes six. Steamed Brown Bread.—Take one cupful each of sour milk, graham flour, raisins and molasses, salt to taste, two teaspoonfuls of soda and one and one-third cupfuls of corn meal. Steam two hours, or steam in fireless cooker for four hours; dry off in the oven, with the covers off the molds. Cream Slaw.—To one quart of chopped cabbage take one-half cupful of vinegar, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, a teaspoonful of flour, one beaten egg, a tablespoonful of butter and one-half teaspoonful each of mustard, salt and paprika. Put sugar, vinegar and butter into a saucepan, and when boiling add the beaten egg with one-nail cupful of cream, flour and seasonings; let boil and pour boiling hot over the cabbage. Dominos.—Cream one-half cupful of butter with one and one-half cupfuls of sugar, add two well-beaten eggs and one cupful of warm milk. Sift three cupfuls of flour with four teaspoonfuls of baking powder; add this to the first mixture, beat well and bake in a shallow pan. The batter should be a quarter of an inch thick. When done and cool, cut the cake into domino-shaped pieces, ice the top and decorate with melted chocolate, put on in drops with wooden skewer.

By VISCOUNTESS ASTOR, in World's Work. I AM striving to take into public life what any man gets from his mother and most men get from their wives if they chose wisely—the courage, and the vision, and the clean love of a mother. That quality has done more than anything in the world to make up civilization. Men know that, and we women know it, too; and we feel that if we can get a little of that into public life, that is our only contribution. That is the only thing we have got. We are not coming just as women. Women are of no more use than men. It is what we bring that is going to be useful, and a great many of us think that we have more moral courage sometimes than men. Women know that physical courage is easy enough, but moral courage takes a bit of doing. We feel that we have got moral courage, and we know that we have got a clean love, and we know that we have got to be unselfish. If we were not unselfish, mankind would not be here. That is the mothers' contribution to life. We are bound to be unselfish, and we think we have got a great vision. It is that which we ask men to accept. That is all we want to do. We don't want to go into politics because of ourselves. We know that public life, just as much as private life, needs this mothering thought. When men are blundering around, sometimes a woman sees as quick on public things as she does on private. Men think we women talk so much. It is true, we do; but even then we don't tell them half we know. Everywhere in Europe America Is Regarded as the Hope of the World Everywhere in Europe, from the Baltic sea to the Black, America is regarded as the hope of the world. Indeed, the most striking moral and psychological phenomenon in Europe, today, is the persistence of this hope. Our brothers across the sea, in this, have shown a greater tenacity even than many of our own sympathetic people. Here at home we find good men and women yielding to despair. Men who two or three years ago counted upon our participation in a society of nations as obvious have now settled back into a sense of hopelessness. But in Europe it is not so, and our brethren there give striking testimony to the fact that hope does "spring eternal in the human breast." "How do the European peoples feel toward us?" is the question often asked as we return. Their feeling is one of disappointment that has not reached disillusionment, mingled with faith that still persists. They feel that we have left the field of battle without stopping to bury the dead or to help repair the devastation made by our own artillery. Recognition for our private, philanthropic help is not overlooked and still gives impulses to prayers of gratitude. No rancor is manifested, just disappointment; sometimes, however, almost to despair. The Long List That May Very Aptly Be Described as "Woman-Killers" By MRS. GENE STRATTON PORTER, in McCall's Magazine. Sometimes I feel that I should like to be a cyclone and blow with violence, first through my own home, and then through the homes of some of my friends, carrying away forever useless rugs, pictures, china, glass and impediments of all sorts that are not useful, not ornamental, and which add more burdens to the long list that may very aptly be described as "woman-killers." I am an Ephraim joined to his idols. I can't let mine go, but I have great admiration for the woman who can. Believe me, it is not necessary to be destructive. Those things that clutter up the average home and make it look more like a museum and give it more the atmosphere of a museum than of the cleanliness and rest of a home could be used by extremely thankful hearts somewhere. There are just as many homes in the world too bare of ornamentation as there are homes having too much. A little searching around will acquaint any woman, whose possessions have become a burden to her, with friends and neighbors who would be unspeakably glad to have the unnecessary picture, the cases of china, the things that have become impedimenta rather than necessities. More Than by Anything Else the Native Realist Is Vexed by Optimism By CARL VAN DOREN, in New Republic. More than by anything else the native realist in this century is vexed by that optimism which contributes to American philosophy it basis and to American conduct its most characteristic technique. He feel that enough, and too much, has been said about what optimism does to make life cheerful, vigorous, effective. He finds himself bound by his loyalty to truth to insist that the American experiment has not entirely succeeded and to advance the explanation, outspoken or implied, that if optimism at its best is a virtue so at its worst it is a vice. His pessimism, however, unlike that of Asia or of parts of Europe, rarely goes to the point of ultimate despair. It is, in all but a few cases, grounded in the confidence which the muckrakers had; that revelation leads to reformation. Exhibit the truth, the American realist believes, and something salutary will be the consequence, as day follows dawn. If he has shifted his front in two decades it has been little more than to turn less toward corruption and more toward stupidity as the natural outcome of optimism. Individuals Responsible for War Should Be Held Personally Accountable By ROBERT L. OWEN, Senator From Oklahoma. Without intending to refer to Europe at all, I am in sympathy with the resolution offered by the senator from Idaho (Mr. Borah) declaring that the making of war shall be an international high crime. The individuals who are responsible for the making of war ought to be held to a personal accountability. I should not think it necessary to impose the death penalty upon them for their lack of understanding, of wisdom, of honesty, of good will in bringing on war, because men do those things without knowing very well where they are going. But I think a long-time incarceration of such persons would be entirely justified, in order that by that example—depriving them of personal liberty—other leaders of mankind would be warned against bringing upon the innocent people of the world the bloodshed and losses inflicted by war THE OLD RELIABLE DOUGLASS UNDERTAKING CO.
