LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY EXODUS FROM SOUTH IMPELS HEART-SEARCHING TALK PROMINENT WHITE EDITORS BELOW MASON-DIXON LINE ASK SQUARE DEAL FOR NEGRO VOL. XXIX. EXODUS FROM S HEART-S PROMINENT WH BELOW MASO ASK SQUARE By Lester A. Walton THE frank analytical discussion of the causes of Negro migration, engaged in by editors of Southern dailies who are courageously demanding a square deal for the Negro in the South, should not escape the attention of the North. Many of the leading editors of that section do not hesitate to say that conditions will have to be materially changed if the migration wave is to materially subside. "Let no Southern white man dodge the issue by contending that the Negro always gets a square deal here. He doesn't, and he knows it; and his white neighbors know it," says the Albany (Ga.) Herald. "No people want to live in a state of fear, and night-riding has an element of terror that people like to run away from," declares the Macon Telegraph. "Unfortunately, some of the night-riding has had no better excuse than that the Negro drove an automobile or engaged in some new business that conventional prejudice was not accustomed to. Happily the whipping of Negroes for owning and driving cars has disappeared from most places, but the state of mind that caused things of this character and tolerated them is unfavorable to justice and opportunity to the Negro, and one of the shames of the worst moods of certain classes of the South. The Enquirer-Sun of Columbus, Ga., thus comments on the exodus: "From time to time for more than two years, the Enquirer-Sun has attempted to draw attention to the fact that the Negro was—and he still is—leaving the South in large numbers. Furthermore, we have asserted that the principle reason for the exodus is that he is not fairly treated in the South—that he does not receive justice in the same measure that the white man does, and that he is not given adequate protection. Too seant attention is paid to his physical needs. Those who rent him houses think that any sort of shack is good enough for the Negro. We have been asked to make it clear that the South is the best place for the Negro, particularly its climate; but climatic conditions mean nothing if a human being, black or white, feels that he is unjustly treated, feels that his life and property are not safe from night riders and cowardly masked organizations; if he feels that he has no voice in making the laws under which he must live. In the past certain newspapers have looked upon our warnings as the result of an alarmist attitude. We have no feeling of pride in the fact that we are right. Our sentiment is one of chagrin and regret that we are not strong enough to prevent what is happening and what will continue to happen unless we decide to make it known that we intend to assert our Anglo-Saxon love of fair play." "Why not tell the truth about the exodus?" inquires the Jackson, Miss., Daily News. "Nothing can be gained by fooling ourselves. We are facing a condition, not a theory. The Negroes are moving northward because they are offered better wages. The plain gospel truth is that we have not been giving the Negro a square deal on the wage question. This applies to the agricultural districts as well as the industrial centers. The wage scale for Negro labor has been too low. Worse than this, our employers of Negro labor have not shown their employees the kindly consideration they deserve. Housing conditions are almost invariably bad. "Take in the matter of house servant. The average cook here in Jackson is paid $5 per week—and what she can carry off. She pays $2.50 per week rental for the hovel in which she lives—usually a two-room cabin—and usually she has a family to support. How in the name or common sense can your cook clothe herself, buy food for herself and family and meet other living expenses on $2.50 per week? She carries food in goodly quantities out of your kitchen because she is forced to do it in order to keep body and soul together. "If we are going to keep our Negroes in the South we must quit trying to kid ourselves into believing that we are dealing fairly with them. * * * It is useless to try to ease our conscience with the idea that thousands of Negroes who are migrating northward are going to be bitterly disappointed. That is dodging the issue. Even if they all starve to death, if they are persecuted by labor unions, it cannot alter the fact that they are leaving us, and that is the trouble we are seeking to remedy. We can stifle the restless, migratory spirit of the Negro in the South only by seeing to it that life is made more pleasant for him; by giving him wages sufficient to support his family decently, by protecting him in all his rights, social, legal and moral; by giving him an honest deal in all business transactions, and not imposing on his ignorance or credulity. This may not be pleasant reading for a lot of folks, but it is cold and indisputable truth, and we may as well face it." GAVE EARNINGS TO BOSS; GETS NAME IN WILL Prides Crossing, Mass., July 6.—George Chipchase, a coachman who lent his savings of $4,000 to his wealthy employer in financial difficulties years ago, is to receive $25,000 in cash and the income of a trust fund of $100,000. This became known last Wednesday through a letter left by Judge William H. Moore, millionaire manufacturer and horseman, to his widow. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JULY 14, 1923 TELLS WHITES TO GIVE RACE EQUAL RIGHTS Senator McCormick Makes Plea Against Lynching—Seeks Racial Justice MONMOUTH, ILL., July 6.—Senator Medill McCormick, addressing the students (white) at the commencement exercises of Monmouth college here June 14, made a strong plea for justice and law for our Race and American citizens in general. He compared conditions in this country and in other countries where law and observance of law had broken down. He made it plain that Americans here at home must meet the test before this country can take its rightful place in the leadership of the affairs of the world. He made this plea not to a gallary of Race people, but to white people and white students who did not expect plain words from the honored statesman. He spoke as follows: "Already has the fever which followed the war been broken. The horrid period of mob violence we may hope has passed, but we must not forget that it was only a short time ago that West and East, North and South, men were put to death by mobs. The states which have tolerated the lynching of black men have been subjected to a salutary and ominous punishment in the migration westward and northward of the Race which not only has been disfranchised and which has been too long denied its elemental civil rights. And yet it does not become any of us in one section of the country to sit in judgment upon those living in another section of the country. The ancient rights of free assembly and of free speech too often, in many parts of the country, were denied men not only by mobs but by officers of the law. That is not American. That is in violation of the principles of the bill of rights. If officers of the law thus flagrantly violate the law what is the moral authority to uphold the law?" "The public service which we may expect during these coming years will be measured by the public spirit which moves the average citizen in the assertion of his rights and the discharge of his duty as a citizen. It was the greatest American of our time who said that the discharge of our duty to the commonwealth was no less important than the assertion of our rights under the commonwealth. It is an old truism too often misconstrued that ours is a government of laws, and not of men. How are the laws to be executed? Who is to assert the supremacy of the law and the constitution unless the public servants under the law and the constitution are devoted to the upholding of both and are fearlessly dedicated to the service of the people who have chosen them? I have no regard for the citizen or the public servant who so long as the constitution and the law stand as they are written would not enforce one or the other, despite the threat of any mob or public pressure, or the secret seduction of any powerful interest." The address of the Senator made a powerful impression on his hearers, particularly as it was evident that he made his plea, not with an eye to winning the favor of our men and women, who were conspicuous by their absence, but in sincerely good faith to help justice and right under the law of the land for all races of men regardless of color or social position, from the lowest to the highest. 65 Women Doctors 5 Dentists in U. S. Intern Department Finds Scarcity of Women Nurses, Doctors and Dentists. Washington, D. C., July 5.—The Colored race has now a total of sixty-five women physicians, surgeons, and osteopaths in the country, according to figures just compiled by the Department of Interior through the Howard University. There are five colored women who practice dentstry in the United States. Other statistical facts collected show that the average yearly increase of colored physicians is sixty-three when the race actually needs to take care of the health of its people an annual increase of at least 450. The average number of colored dentists graduating every year Howard University officials claim, sixty-three while there should be 500. The same condition applies with regard to trained nurses, ninety being turned out each year 600 are needed to administer to the sick among the colored people. One of the interesting features of the data collected by the University is that there are more colored physicians and dentists practicing in the cities of New York, Philadelphia, Washington, Cleveland, and Chicago, than in all the sixteen Southern States combined where fully 8,000,000 colored people live. COMMISSION MORE RACE MEN OFFICERS Camp Meade, Md., July 6.—Howard university is represented at the reserve officers' training camp here by thirty-five student candidates. The camp opened June 15 and will continue for six weeks until July 25, at which time commissions will be awarded to those students who have already completed the full course of training in the R. O. T. C. unit at Howard university. There are twenty-eight universities represented at the training camp, with an enrollment of 868 college men. At the recent commencement exercises of Howard university thirty-five students were awarded commissions by Dwight F. Davis, assistant secretary of war. Mr. Davis in his address to the men who received commissions in the Officers Reserve corps congratulated them upon the completion of their course and urged them to "keep always as their inspiration the example of that splendid soldier who was buried in Arlington cemetery recently with the highest military honors—Colonel Charles Young." $15,000 FOR MONUMENT Chicago, Ill., July 6.—Governor Len Small signed the bill passed by the state legislature appropriating $15,000 for a monument to colored soldiers killed in the World War, last Friday afternoon. The governor said it was the only bill for a monument he had signed this session. Link Johnson Wants Women on Auxiliary Colored Representative on Sub-Committee of National Republican Organization Planned WASHINGTON, D. C., July 5. Criticised and knocked as seldom before in the history of its existence by colored voters, the National Republican Committee faces another fight today. It all comes about because of the announcement of Henry Lincoln Johnson, of Georgia, only colored National Committeeman, that he will name a colored woman from his home state as a member of the Woman's Auxiliary to the National Republican Committee. The advisability of such a female National Committee has been agreed upon by Chairman Adams, President Harding and others influential in party management in order to give Republican women the same representation Democratic women have in their organization. The plan is to permit each member of the National Committee to name a woman to represent his state. This gives Mr. Johnson the authority to select for Georgia. Naturally this peeved the few white Republicans in Georgia, who have filed a protest with Chairman Adams. Far from giving in, Mr. Johnson has told leaders that the majority of Georgia Republicans are colored and there is no reason why a white woman representative on the auxiliary would be picked. In addition, he has let it be known that in other Southern states where colored Republican voters predominate, the woman representative on the auxiliary should be colored. Party workers are using every influence to make Mr. Johnson change his mind. But they recall that he refused to resign from the National Committee when offered the $5,000 post as minister to Liberia. On that occasion he told the administration, he would never resign from the committee, would not accept a post outside of the United States, nor accept any post in Washington, however, flattering, which would make him cease functioning as a member of the Committee. If Mr. Johnson will not give in white Republicans are talking about redistricting Georgia, so as to give National Committee representation in 1924 to the three Congressional districts of the State which cast the bulk of the Republican vote in 1920. Johnson's home district did not yield a large Republican vote and the anti-Johnson Republicans hope to unhorse him by this scheme, if he cannot be persuaded to quit. A BREATH I saw thee rise in all thy grace— A blush of youth upon thy face, Breathing words of verse thine own; In a low, low tone. I could not hear, there was no need One with eye may beauty heed. Breathing words with voice and chime With a melancholy rhyme. Breathing words with voice as sweet. A poem there was complete. By CHAS, I LESSIN NO. 39 PARIS GIVES A POLITENESS TIP TO U. S. PARIS GIVES A POLITENESS TIP TO U. S. Paris, France, July 6.—An incident in which four American tourists refused to make an excursion through Paris because the vehicle contained twelve black soldiers were taken up in a two column leading article in the Petit Bleu. The newspaper demands that tourist agencies insist that their patrons respect the customs of the country in which they are vacationing. “These Americans behaved as vulgar persons,” says the Petit Bleu. “Their ridiculous aversion for men of color contains no excuse. They are not at home but in our country, which is an entirely different affair. The protest of these individuals, devoted to white integralism, merited a severe lesson, and it is to be regretted one was not given which would make them see all colors. It is unfortunate that it was not made apparent that a Frenchman, whatever his color, is worth at least any foreign tourist.” BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA NEWS The Odd Fellows had a big time Saturday night, June 30th in the setting up of a new lodge and the initiation of a number of candidates. A big banquet was served which had been prepared for the occasion. The Masonic lodge is planning to raise money to begin building on a modern hall on their new lot on University Avenue. Rev. and Mrs. J. T. Muse, were the guests of Mrs. E. J. Mallary Wednesday at the picnic of the Beth Eden Baptist Church which was held at San Pablo Dam about 20 miles out of the city. Mrs. Mallary recently purchased a very fine piece of property on King Street and is being rented at a good price. We hope that she will soon move to Berkeley. Prof. F. D. Johnson, of Greenville, Miss., is visiting the Bay Cities and if he should like it here he will send for his better half and the rest of his belongings. He is now stopping with the Gilbert's, 547 Bancroft Way. Mr. and Mrs. E. West left last week in their outo for a month's trip, visiting in Southern California. Mr. West is one of our big real estate men. Rev. Muse and his co-workers of the Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church have started out on a half mile dime drive to pay off indebtedness on church property. Rev. Muse had roll call and homecoming last Sunday for the member of his church. There was a large attendance at all three of the services. The Rev. Dr. S. W. Hawkins of Oakland, preached for Rev. Muse at the 3 o'clock service. Many visitors were present at all services. The ministers present throughout the day were: Revs. Hawkins, J. P. Hubbard, J. W. Jones, and E. D. Crigler of Oakland; H. Horns of Richmond, E. D. Green of Woodland, W. F. Watkins and C. E. Tingley of Berkeley. It was indeed a big day in Zion. The C. M. E. Church is busy getting ready for their conference which will meet in Los Angeles in September. Rev. F. W. Haynes, pastor. In a telephone message from Mrs. George Randall of Oakland to Mrs. J. T. Muse, that her husband Mr. Randal who was so very ill about ten days ago, has recovered sufficiently to return to his work. FOREIGN The French chamber of deputies has ratified the Washington treaty for the limitation of naval armaments and capital ships by a vote of 460 to 106. There hasn't been an execution in Denmark in 30 years. So the punishing commission is considering a proposal for abolition of capital punishment. Buddhists who opposed the exchange of diplomatic representatives between Japan and the vatican, thereby recently causing the diet to vote down a proposal to send a Japanese minister to the papal court, have decided to send one of their abbotts to Rome to study the whole subject of Roman Catholicism. It is semiofficially announced in Tokio that Russia has agreed to indemnify Japan for the Nikolaievsk massacre. At the same time Russia will not force Japan to recognize her claims of violation of the army of Japan during its Siberian occupation. This is regarded as a diplomatic victory for the Japanese. Turkish conditions for the evacuation of Constantinople have been accepted by the allied powers at the Near East conference and the treaty of peace may be signed within a week, according to a Central News Dispatch received in London from Lausanne. The French, British and Italian representatives reached a final agreement after receiving instructions from their governments, the dispatch said. Reservations were attached to its approval of the ratification of the Washington naval limitation treaty by the senate naval commission in Paris in adopting the report of Senator Lemery. These reservations are regarded as important by the commission and are similar to objections previously voiced by other commissions. Except for satisfaction that the apparently interminable discussions at Lausanne at last have ended in some sort of an agreement, there is little gratification in London over the outcome. The opinion of the newspapers is that Turkey won a substantial victory and obtained immeasurably more from her nominal conquerors than would have been thought possible a few months ago. A warrant has been issued in Shanghai, China, for the arrest of Lawrence H. Kearney, an American, charged with being the head of a plot for the wholesale smuggling of arms into China from Russian and Japanese sources. Kearney, who formerly was head of the defunct firm of Kearney & Co., produce importers, is believed to be somewhere in Chekiang province, following his return from a recent trip to Gensan, Korea, where it is believed he made arrangements for further shipments of arms Into China from the White Russian refugee colony there. GENERAL Floating in the basket of the illfated United States navy balloon A-6998, the body of Lieut. L. J. Roth was found floating in Lake Erie fourteen miles off Port Stanley, Ontario. William R. Day, former associate justice of the United States Supreme Court, died at his cottage on Mackinac Island, Mich. With him was his son, William L. Day, and the latter's wife. The Farmers' Union of Canada recently voted to form a voluntary wheat pool for the 1923 crop, and communicated with other farmer organizations in the western provinces seeking recognition. Influx into northern industrial centers of negroes from the South, and laborers from Mexico, the Philippines, Canada and a few European countries, soon will make possible abolishment of the twelve-hour day in the steel industry, Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the board of the United States Steel corporation, announced in New York City. Excessive heat in Nebraska was held indirectly responsible for the death of at least five persons. Three youths were drowned, two at Norfolk and one at Lincoln, while two children were killed in an automobile accident near Bloomfield. There was one prostration reported in Omaha. "Ye Wayside Inn," at Sudbury, Mass., immortalized by the Poet Longfellow, is now the property of Henry Ford, Detroit automobile manufacturer. It is said Ford paid $200,000 for the relics and antiques alone housed in the ancient hostelry. The inn had been operated continuously since 1656. It is reported it will be converted into an historical museum. The flying boat Nina of the AeroMarine Airways Company, incorporated, returned to Cleveland, O., after a six-hour search of the Canadian and American shores of Lake Erie in a fruitless effort to find some trace of Lieuts. L. J. Roth and T. B. Null of Denver, Colo., lost when the naval balloon A-6898 fell into Lake Erie, after leaving Indianapolis in the national elimination air race. No trace of the basket of the balloon was found. Twenty-six Texas oil promoters, including Dr. Frederick A. Cook, former arctic explorer, were indicted by the Federal Grand Jury at Cleveland on charges of using the mails to defraud and conspiracy to make fraudulent use of the mails. Justice Stafford refused to direct a verdict of acquittal in the case of Charles W. Morse, his three sons and four others, who are on trial on indictments charging conspiracy to defraud the government in connection with war-time ship construction and operation contracts. NEWS TO DATE IN PARAGRAPHS CAUGHT FROM THE NETWORK OF WIRES ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD DURING THE PAST WEEK RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS CONDENSED FOR BUSY PEOPLE WESTERN William J. Bryan expects to go to the Democratic national convention next year as a delegate from the state of Florida, to which he removed his legal residence from Nebraska a year or two ago. Mr. Bryan announced himself as a candidate for delegate while at the executive mansion at Lincoln, Neb. When the transport Henderson, carrying President Harding and his party, steamed into Taku bay en route to Juneau, the capital of Alaska, prepared to afford the party the rare sight of navy guns firing into the ice of a huge glacier, a heavy fog settled down and the bombardment was abandoned at the last minute. Although no funds were provided for the summer term at the San Francisco Teachers' College in the budget passed by the last Legislature, the summer term at the school beagn with 500 students in attendance. The term was made possible when the regular teaching staff donated its services and the students assumed responsibility for all expenses. United States Senator William E. Borah, Republican, of Idaho, came to the defense of President Harding in a reply to United States Senator William H. King, Democrat, of Utah, who in a speech Salt Lake City, had called the nation's chief executive "insincere" and declared that in his advocacy of the world court the president "had deceived the people." A recent report from Shelby, Mont., which was extensively published in newspapers throughout the East to the effect that Shelby was attempting to float a large bond issue to care for a deficit resulting from the recent Fourth of July championship bout between Jack Dempsey and Tommy Gibbons was branded as being absolutely untrue by Mayor James Johnson of Great Falls. Two hundred families were rendered destitute by the recent fire in Goldfield, Nev., according to an appeal for aid telegraphed to a San Francisco newspaper by the Goldfield relief committee. The appeal read: "Disastrous fire rendered destitute some 200 families. Relief committee needs several thousand dollars for necessities and will appreciate anything that can be done. Remittances should be made payable to A. Ferguson, treasurer, at the John S. Cook bank, Goldfield, Nev." WASHINGTON Secretary Davis sailed recently on the Leviathan for Europe, where he will make a general study of immigration conditions. The labor secretary expects to visit Great Britain, France, Germany, Hungary and Italy and several other countries. While officials of the American Federation of Labor deprecated the progress claimed by President Harding in his campaign to eliminate the twelve-hour work day in American industry as revealed by his announcement before sailing for Alaska, the feeling prevailed in government circles that the president had at least won a moral victory. More causes for war exist in Europe today than in January, 1914, Senator Underwood of Alabama, former Democratic floor leader in the Senate, declared in a statement reviewing conditions as he found them during a trip abroad. While he contended the United States must aid Europe in adjusting its affairs, he asserted nothing in that direction could be accomplished by joining an international court of justice. Reports of consumption of private liquor stock by passengers on board government ships have brought before the shipping board the question of its jurisdiction in the matter, with the resulting decision that its authority, as exercised through the ship's captain, does not run to the extent which would permit any interference with the passengers' actions. Smaller crops than last year were indicated in the July forecasts of the Department of Agriculture, issued a few days ago, for wheat, corn, rye, white and sweet potatoes, rice, hay, apples and peaches. A tobacco crop 100,000,000 pounds larger than last year's and a larger production of oats, barley and flax seed were indicated. The United States District Court in San Francisco denied a motion asking for the dismissal of a petition by Charles Lockard, an owner of the Seattle Club in the Pacific Coast Baseball League, that W. H. McCarthy, president of the league, be compelled to seat him as a director of the parent organization. McCarthy has refused to permit the participation of the Seattle Club in the regular league meetings on the ground that there is evidence of it being owned in part by William Wrigley, Jr., a stockholder in the Los Angeles Club. PREMIER ISSUES DEFY TO FRANCE FRANCE PERILS WORLD PEACE, BALDWIN TELLS BRITISH PARLIAMENT RUHR POLCY SCORED WHOLE OF EUROPE THREATENED BY REPARATIONS PROBLEM, SAYS LEADER London.—Great Britain will draft a reply to the latest German note on reparations and submit it to the allied powers for their approval, Premier Stanley Baldwin announced in the House of Commons a few days ago. "We hope the allies will join with us," the premier said. "If they do not, England will be forced to act independently." "France's course is endangering the peace of the world," Baldwin said. "There is no justification for the French course," Premier Baldwin declared. "It cannot be made too clear," he added, "in the interests alike of the powers or any who hope to profit from exploiting Germany, that the difficulties between them rest on the sole ground of divergencies as to the means of reaching the ends upon which all are agreed." England has never wavered, Baldwin said, in her determination that Germany should pay. "We are determined as any of our allies that Germany should make reparations for damages of the great war to her fullest capacity. "But," he said, "we are convinced that measures which will result in the ruin of Germany will be fatal to England, her allies and the whole of Europe." "Hope of the recovery of her credit and the consequent ability to pay her debts is receding into the dim distance. Security for the world, Baldwin said, rests upon three points. "Peace cannot be secured until these three questions are settled," he declared. "One is payment of the reparations. Another is settlement of the inter-allied debts. The third is the security of a pacified Europe." Since the occupation of the Ruhr, England has stood inside, Baldwin said, because of her "sincere loyalty toward the alliance which has been and continues to be the main security for the peace of Europe." "We will confidently invite the consideration of our allies to our proposal which has no other alm than the pacification of Europe and the recovery of an exhausted world." As a means to this end, Premier Baldwin said, referring to the Ruhr occupation, the "period of conflict should be terminated." "The indefinite occupation by one country of the territory of another in time of peace is a plenomena that is rare and regrettable," he said. He was careful to point out, however, that it was not England's desire or a part of her plan to deprive France and Belgium of their legal alms. To Unionize Steel Workers Cleveland, Ohio.—A campaign to unionize the 100,000 steel workers in the Cleveland district has been started here by William Hannon, secretary-treasurer of the executive council of international organizations in the steel industry. An eighth day, better working conditions, a living wage and an immigration policy which will protect American labor will be the aim, it was said. Firno Knocks Out Willard Jersey City.—Louis Angel Firpo, the dark-browned mauler from the Argentine, closed the door to Jess Willard's attempted return to fistic fame by knocking out the giant former champion in the eighth round of a slashing battle here—one of the greatest in recent heavyweight history. Incidentally he reached the goal at which he has aimed for the past year of his meteoric rise to prominence—a match for the title with Jack Dempsey. There was no question of the superiority of the brilliant Argentinian battler. Widow Held for Manufacturer's Death Los Angeles, Calif.—Mrs. Walburga Oesterreich, whose wealthy husband, Frederick Oesterreich, formerly a clothing manufacturer of Milwaukee, Wis., was shot to death in their residence in a fashionable district of Los Angeles fore than a year ago, has been placed in the city jail here on suspicion of his murder. The arrest came after the police had received information that Mrs. Oesterreich had disposed of two automatic pistols of the same caliber as that with which her husband had been slain. "Dollar Wheat Means Farmers Ruin" Chicago—"Dollar wheat means ruin for thousands of farmers all over the United States." In these words O. E. Bradfute, president of the American farm federation bureau, epitomized the situation facing the great army of approximately 3,000,000 wheat farmers in the grain belts following a drop of 10 cents a bushel on wheat in the past two weeks. "Continuance of wheat at the dollar-a-bushel mark means short of bankruptcy for thousands of farmers." said Mr. Bradfute. NEW WONDERFUL PREPARATION FOR NAPPY, WIRY HAIR!

Clark, familiarly known as "Scotty," porter at the Strathmore hotel here for the last twenty-two years, will leave tomorrow for Salida, where he will take a similar place under Harry Dye, at the Rainbow hotel. "Scotty," because of his long connection with the hotel business, has an acquaintance among the travelling men of this part of the country surpassed by few men in Colorado, although only a small proportion of them know his surname. He is known to them as simply "Scotty." Like all men long associated with hotels his acquaintance伸 extends from one side of the continent to the other and it occasionally happens that some man residing in New York, or perhaps San Francisco, who knew "Scotty" years ago, will stop off here and make inquiry about him. "Scotty" resigned his job at the Strathmore several days ago and has everything packed up in readiness for his departure for Salida. "Scotty's" boyhood home was in Kansas City, Mo., and his mother still lives there. Mme. J. T. Hammond has just returned from a very successful business trip in Cheyenne, Casper and Laramie, Wyo.

FRENCH SENATE APPROVES THE TREATY FOR NAVY SCRAPPING FRANCE RATIFIES PACT DEPOSIT OF SIGNATURES WITH AMERICA IS ONE REMAIN. Paris.—The French parliament completed ratification of the Washington naval limitation treaty and the fourpower Pacific accord by overwhelming votes in the Senate. The naval limitation treaty was ratified with only three dissenting votes and the Pacific accord was approved immediately afterward unanimously and without debate. The vote was passed largely by proxy as the stifling heat kept most of the senators away. The French objections to any restriction were voiced but the trend of the discussion was that France was financially unable to build even up to the limit of the capital ship program during the life of the Washington agreement, and the opposition was mainly sentimental. Speakers insisted, however, that it must be definitely understood that the treaty did not restrict the building of lighter craft and submarines on which the French expect to spend most of their naval appropriations. The report of the Senate naval commission was the strongest feature of the opposition. Reporter Lemery objecting to what he termed the capitalization of France's after-war naval weakness, with the control of the seas given to Great Britain, America and Japan. The Senate's approval has been accepted as little more than a formality, particularly as the government was able to hurry these principal treaties through the Chamber of Deputies with little pronounced opposition, but Premier Poincare, seconded by Albert Sarrat, one of the French delegates to Washington was nevertheless on hand ready to enter the debate if necessary. The premier made only one observation. He reminded the Senate that the treaty applied exclusively to capital ships, as the French viewpoint had carried the day at Washington with regard to the smaller vessels and submarines. Minister of Marine Raiberti made a straight forward statement of the government's belief that the treaty permitted all the naval construction financially possible for France. Washington.—The French Senate's ratification of the Washington naval treaty and the four-power pacts completes the steps necessary to put the agreements into force except for the deposits of ratifications by all the signatories in Washington. Various provisions of the treaty take effect at prescribed periods of time calculated from the date of the deposit of ratifications. Vessels of war to be scrapped must be rendered incapable of further warlike service within six months, and the "scrapping shall be finally effected" within eighteen months. The replacement program for capital ships, however, is not depend upon the date of ratification but is set forth in a chart fixing the year in which replacement keels may be laid down for each such ship. Mixed Jury Fails to Agree Mixed Jury Falls to Agree Bakersfield, Calif.—The jury of four women and eight men in the trial of Jesus Medina, charged with murder in connection with the death of four men in an Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe passenger train wreck here last December, were discharged without having reached a verdict. It is said the jury stood ten to two for acquittal on the last ballot. Medina, charged jointly with A. Montano for the crime, was accused of having tampered with the switch at the point where the wreck occurred. Lightning Kills Three Guardsmen Baltimore, Md.—Three members of the fifth regiment, Maryland National Guard, in camp at Saunders range in Anne Arundel county, were killed when a bolt of lightning struck in a group of men. Ten soldiers were reported injured. The men were lounging about the camp at the time watching a severe thunderstorm that swept over the section of the county. Some of the injured were given first aid treatment at the encampment while others were rushed to Baltimore hospitals. Boy Confesses Wrecking Train Butte, Mont.—Eleven-year-old Archie McArthur has declared himself responsible for the wrecking of Burlington train No. 41 of the line of the Northern Pacific, about twenty-three miles east of Butte, when four men, including the engineer, were killed. He told a railroad detective in detail how he broke the lock of a switch on the Blackstone spur and opened it, thus permitting the train which came long soon after to rush to its doom.

OUR SUMMER VISITORS DENVER is beginning to enjoy the usual run of visiting tourists that annually come to us from all parts of the country during the hot summer months. The ideal weather conditions in Colorado, the cool, restful nights, the many picturesque mountain resorts and scenic beauties, form an inescapable appeal to one seeking comfort and repose from the oppressive heat of the East and South. Some one with poetic leanings once asked "What is more beautiful than a night in June." There can be but one answer, i. e., a summer in Colorado. Tourists come to our mountains for many reasons. The school teacher weary of exacting labors, leaves the prosacial surroundings of city, village or country and comes to the romantic hills for a term in some of our summer schools. Once here, sweet inspiration crowds in, fills the heart with strange, incomparable longings and fires the brain with vivid imagery and weird anticipations. It is possible here in Colorado for the most self centered individual to completely lose one's self in nature's myriad wonders, which, sacredly contemplated, carries the beholders from the things earthy to the creative mysteries of Almighty God. Massive grandeur arises only to impress man of his own pigmy-like powers. The majesty of our peaks are tempered with the cooling caresses of eternal snows. Thus we have much to offer to our summer visitors. Our hospitality is well known far and near. We are glad to annually greet friend or relative from the "old home" and equally happy to clasp the hand of new acquaintances who come to us for the first time. However our summer season is not all play, tourists cannot expect one grand holiday. It is but natural to presume that the major number of these come to our great state hoping to meet and be thrown with the best of our citizenship. There is an immense obligation of reciprocity in this consideration however. Mutual helpfulness can be the out-growth of every tourist season if we but will and our summer visitors will be multiplied many times if we give, and at the same time exact, the very best in manhood and womanhood as the price of contact. THE QUESTION OF EDUCATION THE EDITOR of the New York Sun is optimistic enough to see a great change in the attitude of the Southern white people regarding the question of education for the millions of Colored citizens living in that section. He says: "Not so many years ago the question of education for its Negro population was an open and widely debated one in the South. It is settled now, and as rapidly as their funds will permit the Southern states are going ahead with plans for as good a system of schools for Negroes as they can afford." We have no intention of belittling the efforts of the South honestly and justly made, but experience has taught us their promises are like pie crust—easily broken. The dominant element of that section never did and does not now see the advisability of giving the Negro an education, or in fact giving their white residents an education. A casual survey of school conditions there will verify this statement. The Sun strikes the keynote and inadvertently gives the reason for the forward step in education the South has taken when it says: "Up to April 1, this year, 1,700 schools and 49 teachers' homes had been built with the aid of the Rosenwald fund at a total cost of $6,257,-492. Of this amount Negroes gave $1,600,667, or 25.6 per cent; whites, $352,199, or 5.6 per cent; public appropriations accounted for $3,100,148, or 49.5 per cent, and the Rosenwald fund provided the remainder, $1,204,-478. The large amount contributed by the Negroes, in spite of their small per capita wealth, is a splendid index of the Race's interest in education and its ambition for better schools for the younger generation." Were it not for Northern philanthropy the Black man of the South would still be groping his way through the shadows of ignorance as he did in the days before the Civil war. Southerners were true exponents of "A little learning is a dangerous thing," applied to our group especially. It is high time the attention of the nation is being focused on the treatment of the Negro in that section. His education only comes in incidentally—the main issue is how to counteract the ever-increasing movement of the laboring classes Northward. Mississippi whites gave nearly $100,000 and other Southern states equally as modest a sum toward the support of colored schools. Comment is unnecessary. We trust those who are sponsoring the movement to better the condition of our people in the South will be influential enough to at least check the wholesale murders and lynchings that are of every day occurrence. True, the black man sorely needs education, but he has plenty of company in his white Southern neighbors. The Rosenwald fund might with profit be extended to them. Both the above editorial from the columns of the New York Sun and the trite comment by the Chicago Defender, bear testimony of the increasing interest being taken in the Negro and his welfare from almost every angle. We are being given more space in magazines and periodicals, to say nothing of the great daily papers, than most any other race or cause within our national confines. What is the reason? A few years back the question was pertinently applied, "What must we do with the Negro?" That was in the day of Vardaman, Blease, Tillman and fire eaters of their band and ilk. Today the slogan has changed to "What can we do FOR the Negro?" and their is almost anguish in the frantic efforts of some Southern communities to prove that they want to do something for the Negro. Naturally we are strong for this changed program and want to see it carried out to the very highest point of efficiency. It is significant, however, that the Negro has been taking an active interest in education and better school facilities for some time, while the white South is just waking up to the appalling consequences of illiteracy within its own race as well as that of the black man. The awakening seems too sudden to be genuine. Our skepticism is aroused and we are halting between the opinions as to whether it is a real thirst for knowledge, a reaching out and up for better knowledge, higher education and a consequent breaking down of the barriers of ignorance or is it merely a sporadic attempt at easing Negro unrest and by so doing possibly check further northern migration? In the absence of more positive proof we are inclined to the latter view of the situation. In the matter of education the South has been its own enemy. It has deliberately chosen the path of ignorance and darkness. It sought to hold the Negro in servile check by denying to him the proper facilities of education. But something happened a few years ago. A world war broke out and the ignorant Negro of the Southland was transported to other climes. He found the atmosphere more to his liking, his lungs were filled with freedoms good air. He found a place where a man could be a man. What he failed to learn through the medium of text books he gleaned from the big school of experience. He will never be the same mind-beclouded, servile creature of pre-war days. He has learned to THINK, and there are no limitations to be placed upon a race of thinkers.

Over-confident from his showing, Nilles came from his corner at the clang of the gong for the second as if it was his intention immediately to finish off his opponent and have the affair ended. The shifty Senegal man however, went into a clinch with Nilles and pushed him into a corner. Then, as they broke away, Siki swung his left to the jaw of the white man.

Mr. and Mrs. Grady proved exceptionally congenial tourists and were the recipients of many exclusive social honors while here. On last Saturday evening at 6 o'clock, they were the dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Jos. Gaines, 2518 Humboldt street, and later were guests of honor at a beautiful affair given by St. Katherine's Guild at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. E. B. De Priest, 1847 Lincoln street. This was followed by a motor party under guidance of Mrs. Geo. Gross, and then they were royally entertained at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Holder, 2442 Lefayette. Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Contee entertained Mr. and Mrs. Grady at a charmingly appointed breakfast Sunday morning, and Mrs. Nannie Douglass gave a six-course dinner in their honor at 2 o'clock Sunday. A drive through Bear Creek canon and over Lookout mountain as guest of Mrs. Contee Sunday evening, brought their Denver visit to a close. They were the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Robinson while in Denver. CHANDLER OWEN MEETING LARGELY ATTENDED Mr. Chandler Owen, noted New York lecturer and editor of the Messenger Magazine, has become a Denver favorite as was evidenced by the large crowd that greeted him on the occasion of his lecture "The Ku Klux Klan, a Challenge to Civilization," at the People's Presbyterian Church Monday night. As a result of this splendid meeting a strong chapter of the "Friends of Negro Freedom" was organized Tuesday night. MOTOR CLUB ORGANIZED A number of our motor enthusiasts met at the office of Dr. C. F. Holmes Wednesday evening and took steps for the organization of a Motor Club. The idea has been in the air for some time but only took concrete form when Dr. Holmes and Spratlin and Mr. Roy Groomer issued a call for the meeting of Wednesday night. The club is preparing for an outing at Daniels park on Colorado Day, Aug. 1. SHORTER CHAPEL NOTES Sunday morning at the 11 o'clock service the minister will preach.

Blayney and Charles MacAllister Wilcox, representing Denver and Charles H. Leckenby of Steamboat Springs and Charles N.

Fraternally, MARY G. CLINKSCULE, G. M. TITUS S. RECTOR, G. P. EFFIE WALDON, Grand Secretary. MRS. IDA DE PRIEST Noted Political Worker, Social Leader, and Club Woman, Soon to Leave Denver Mrs. Ida De Priest, for four years a copy clerk in the office of the clerk and recorder of the city and county of Denver, is soon to leave for an extended visit to California and the Pacific coast states. Mrs. De Priest is one of our most valued women and has been a strong factor in all things pertaining to the progress and uplift of the race in Colorado. A graduate of East Denver high school, a woman of unusually brilliant intellectual attainments, and forceful public speaker, Mrs. De Priest has long held front rank as a worthy example of Christian leadership and character. In the field of politics Mrs. De Priest has been uniformly successful and her well known capabilities and loyalty has won for her many high honors. For four years she was a clerk in the secretary of state's office and acquitted herself in the same high manner that has always characterized her efforts. On Tuesday, July 10, she severed her connection with the office of clerk and recorder, where with Mrs. T. E. McClain and Mrs. R. B. Bolden, a record for efficiency has been hung up that will stand for some time. In going to California, Mrs. De Priest will carry with her the prayers and hearty wishes of scores of white as well as her host or colored friends. For five years she has served on the executive committee of the Denver Branch N. A. A. C. P., and as such has rendered the race yeoman service by her counsels and wisdom. California will be richer in many ways by having this strong race woman take up her permanent abode in that state. DENVER TO GIVE ROUSING WELCOME TO JAMES WELDON JOHNSON All Citizens to Join in Reception to Fighting Secretary of N. A. A. C. P. Weldon Johnson reach Denver on the 17th of next month they will find Denver ready to greet them in true western fashion. Mr. Johnson has justly earned the title of the "Fighting Secretary" of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and loyal Denverites have long awaited a close-up of the man who stayed on the job when the Dyer Anti-Lynching bill was before Congress. At last the opportunity will be ours and Mr. Johnson and wife will be guests of Denver for about a week next month. The Denver Branch, through its executive committee, Monday night, arranged for a reception to Mr. Johnson on a large scale. It is to be a democratic affair and all citizens from every walk of life will be invited to take part. The Denver Branch is justly regarded as one of the strongest in the country, and every possible effort will be made to bring Mr. Johnson in personal contact with every member. A large mass meeting will be held at Shorter Church on Monday night, Aug. 20. Other details of his Denver visit will be given later. DENVER BRANCH N. A. A. C. P.

Second Floor, Joslin's- Third Floor, Joslin's MUSICAL SERVICE AT PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH A SUCCESS Quite a treat was afforded churchgoers and the musical public when a fairly large audience listened with rapt attention to a program rendered by the church choir last Sunday afternoon, under the direction of Hewetson Watson. The program was of that variety which lent enjoyment to the ordinary as well as the classical taste, and due appreciation was manifestly expressed by the auditors who commended the efforts of the participants. The special feature was the people's quartette in their rendition of "Dream of Paradise" by Gray, in which Miss Eloise Uggams, Miss Mabel Cole, Rev. C. H. Uggams, pastor of the church and Hewetson Watson gave quite an interpretation which was very soulful in its effect. Miss Frances White contributed an organ selection which brought out very prominently her musical ability. The kind assistance of Misses Uggams and Cole, also Misses Holly and Nelson helped to maintain the prestige established by this choir in church work. These services are held monthly and the public is cordially invited to attend. NOTES OF THE CENTRAL BAP- TIST CHURCH John Eliot Allen, Pastor.

Boulder.—Henry Eaves, a man with many aliases, left in custody of Sheriff Robert V. Blum for the state penitentiary, to begin a five-year sentence at the age of 61. Eaves was sentenced from five to ten years by Judge Neil F. Graham in the District Court here after confessing to defrauding Father Agatho of the Sacred Heart church of $505. Colorado Springs.—One of the most sensational alienation of affection suits to come into the local District Court recently is promised through action instituted by Vernon C. Randolph, of this vity, asking $100,000 damages from his mother-in-law, Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Reid, wealthy Louisville, Ky., woman, who, with her daughter, Mrs. Randolph, is staying at the Broadmoor hotel. West Cliffe.—Bernita Richardson, 13-year-old daughter of William Richardson, living three miles north of West Cliffe, was drowned in Grape creek, a half mile below the Deweese dam and reservoir. The girl was wading and dropped into a deep pool. Men close by endeavored to rescue the child, but because of the depth of the pool and swiftness of the stream it was forty-five minutes before the body was recovered. Denver.—Three race drivers in the dirt track, speed contest at Overland park were injured, one of them probably fatally, in spectacular auto crashes that marred the first two events of the day. The injured men are Irwin Bratley of Grand Forks, N. D., Peerless driver; John Ralmey of Memphis, Tenn., Essex driver, and Ned Peterson, Denver, Rajo Special driver. Bratley and Ralmey were injured in the same accident in the second race when their cars collided on the second turn of the track and crashed through the inside fence. Bratley was crushed beneath his car and a huge splinter from the fence was driven through his jaw and into his mouth. He was rushed to the county hospital. Ralmey was not seriously injured, but badly scratched and bruised.

Their daughter, Miss Dorothea Morgan, was seriously injured, and is near death in a Los Angeles hospital. According to the report, no one was held by California authorities as responsible for the accident, and the bodies of the four were sent immediately to Denver for burial. Frank B. Morgan was widely known in Hugo and throughout Colorado in railroad circles. He was a retired engineer and had been employed for many years by the Union Pacific railroad. Colorado Springs.—Patrick Murphy, 102, oldest Knight of Columbus in the world, who had been missing from his home here for more than forty-eight hours, was found on the trail to the summit of Pike's Peak, beyond the Half-Way house.

Fort Lupton.—A baby boy, less than 2 years old, was fatally hurt on the road three miles east of Fort Lupton, when an automobile skidded in the sand and turned over. The car was driven by Alexander Robertson, a retired army officer, and in it were his wife and baby. Mr. Robertson and his family were in the automobile on their way to California to visit relatives. Denver.—Receipts for the first six months of 1923 from the sale of motor vehicle licenses not only exceed those for the entire year of 1922, but have also passed the $1,000,000-mark, Secretary of State Carl S. Milliken announced here. Exact figures from outside counties are not available for the entire period but it is known that they will more than bring the total above that figure. Las Animas.—With water five feet above the rip-rap and 300 feet of the dam crippled where the high waves went over the top, and all ditches bank full, the Mutual Carey irrigation project south of this city has emerged from the recent three weeks of daily rains in splendid condition with ample water on hand for this season's crop and for fall wheat planting. Settlers under the project are much cheered up and the promoters of the project expect to complete a second reservoir in the coming season so that the flood waters next spring can be controlled. Denver.—All crops are making good growth in Colorado since the advent of warmer weather according to reports of the United States Division of Crop and Livestock Estimates. Moisture conditions continue favorable although more rain is needed in some sections of east central and southern Colorado. Some complaint of a shortage of farm labor is received from most sections. Winter wheat is heading well but many stands are thin due to the dry fall and winter. Some fields are commencing to ripen. All spring grains are making good growth and good stands are reported. Considerable damage occurred from recent severe hail storms. Corn is generally making excellent growth since the prevalence of warmer weather, but some replanting was necessary due to the heavy rains. Grain sorghums are somewhat late but a good condition is generally reported, with heavy increases in acreage apparent in many sections and especially in the east and southeast. Ranges are generally in excellent condition although more rain is needed in some parts of the southwest. The first cutting of alfalfa is nearing completion and stacking about finished. Some new wild hay is being shipped from points in the San Luis Valley. Some frost damage in the southwest and an unusual amount of hail damage has been reported from many districts. Livestock continue in excellent health and condition. A normal calf and lamb crop is reported. The loss of early pigs was heavy at farrowing time. Denver.—Potatoes are in fair to good condition although frost caused a setback in some southwest districts. The thinning of sugar beets has generally been delayed in all eastern slope districts and especially in the northern and northeastern sections by excessive rain but has made good progress in the western slope. Fair to good conditions prevail for beans, though completion of planting was somewhat late. Onions, lettuce, cabbage and cantaloupes are usually in about average condition although some damage from hall is reported and some replanting of cantaloupes has been done. The drought has necessitated a limited amount of replanting of lettuce in Teller county. Fruit is generally in quite promising condition although some hall damage is reported. A heavy June drop of apples is reported in a few sections but light in others. Strawberries are appearing upon the market in increasing quantities. A good crop of all berries is indicated. Durango.—Chief Hostien Yaze Begay, Judge of the Navajo Court of Indian Offenses at Shilprock, on the Navajo reservation in the states of New Mexico and Arizona, sent a telegram to Charles H. Burke, commissioner of Indian affairs, at Washington, protesting the removal of Evan W. Estep as superintendent of schools and government agent to the Navajos.

Morrison, was shot and killed at a cow camp near Bolmer mountain, in the western part of Dolores county, in what is known as the Disappointment country.

Brush out all moth eggs and keep out the parent moths by tight wrapping, are the two cardinal principles for preventing the tragedy of moth-eaten fabrics. Woolen or fur garments which are to be stored away during the hot weather should be painstakingly cleaned, beaten, brushed and sunned, if possible on the clothesline, to remove or kill any moth eggs or larvae which may already be in them, says the United States Department of Agriculture. Special attention should be given to brushing all seams, creases and pockets. not later be entered by other Clothing stored in good t chests after thorough brus sunning should be safe for ravages, for the larger moth would have been brushed out young ones or any hatched it undetected eggs would be kill they could cause serious Cedar chests do not kill the ler, its eggs or pupae, but it found that they do kill t worms within a few days a hatch out. Wood Chest Effective When one does not possess Young Laryae Do Damage. Young Larvae Do Damage. The adult moths which fly about do not damage the clothing. They merely select woolen garments or furs in which to deposit their eggs, so that the young larvae eventually emerging from these eggs will have plenty of suitable food. A large part of the trouble caused by moths can be averted if this preliminary cleaning, brushing and sunning is thoroughly done, and if the clothes are then placed in absolutely tight containers which can- POISONING FLIES BY USING FORMALDEHYDE POISONING FLIES BY USING FORMALDEHYDE Addition of Sugar Will Add to Its Effectiveness. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Probably the best poisoned bait for house files, according to the United States Department of Agriculture, is formaldehyde in milk used at the rate of about three teaspoonfuls of formaldehyde to a pint of a mixture of equal parts of milk and water. This is placed in flat dishes in places frequented by files. A piece of bread or a sponge in the dish adds to the effectiveness. Brown sugar or molasses and water with $2 \frac{1}{2}$ per cent formaldehyde (commercial, 40 per cent solution) added will probably also give satisfactory results. As far as possible other liquids should be removed when poisoned baits are exposed. The use of poisoned solutions, especially arsenical solution in tubs containing portions of animal carcasses, has been tried and advocated against the screw-worm by a number of stockmen. A comparatively weak poison solution—about one gallon of dip, as used for cattle, diluted to seven gallons of water—is sufficient. Best results usually have been secured where a considerable portion of the animal matter was allowed to protrude from the poison solution, as there is a tendency for the solution to harden the bait and prevent its decomposition, thus reducing its attraction for files. It should be borne in mind that formaldehyde, 40 per cent, is poison in the same proportion as wood alcohol, if taken internally. It should not be inhaled, nor should the eyes be unduly exposed to it. Special pains should be taken to prevent children from drinking poisoned baits and to prevent the poisoned files from dropping into foods or drinks. Arsenical solutions, as is well known, are extremely poisonous to man and animals. Care should be taken to protect the poisoned baits from live stock, and it is not advisable to have the baits close to barnyard walls where fowls are kept, as they may be poisoned by eating the dead files. HAVE OLD CARPETS REWOVEN Old Material May Be Converted Into Durable Rugs—Should Be Thoroughly Cleaned. New rugs may be woven from old woolen carpets and rugs too shabby to be used as they are, points out the United States Department of Agriculture. Factories for doing the work may be found in many localities. The old material is cut into strips about three-fourths of an inch wide, which when sewed together and twisted make a cord somewhat like chenile and form the filling of the new rug. Cotton string is used for the warp. Those rugs are very heavy and soft, alike on both sides, and durable, provided they are cleaned carefully. They are generally rather neutral in color and without a definite design; borders, however, may be woven from strips of carpet of solid color, or figured carpet may be dyed for this purpose. In general, about six and a half pounds of old carpet is required to make a square yard of the rewoven fabric, depending, of course, on the weight of the old material. not later be entered by other moths. Clothing stored in good tight cedar chests after thorough brushing and sunning should be safe from moth ravages, for the larger moth larvae would have been brushed out and any young ones or any hatched later from undetected eggs would be killed before they could cause serious damage. Cedar chests do not kill the moth-miller, its eggs or pupae, but it has been found that they do kill the moth worms within a few days after they hatch out. Wood Chest Effective. Wood Closet Effect When one does not possess a cedar chest, a tightly constructed chest of ordinary wood would be just as effective, provided the clothing is as thoroughly cleaned, brushed and sunned and has from one to two pounds of good-grade naphthalene packed with it. Woolen garments similarly cared for and prepared for storage may be protected by wrapping them tightly in several thicknesses of ordinary paper, with naphthalene flakes or balls distributed throughout the package. TAKE CARE OF PERISHABLES During Warm Summer Months Keep Vegetables and Fruits at Cool Temperature. Fresh vegetables and fruits should be kept clean, well ventilated, and, if possible, at a temperature between 60 degrees and 40 degrees F., advises the United States Department of Agriculture. Decayed ones should be frequently sorted out. Very often the decayed portion may be cut away and the rest of the fruit or vegetable used at once. Wilted leaf vegetables sometimes may be freshened by soaking in water just before using. All vegetables and fruits, especially those to be eaten raw, should be thoroughly washed in running water before they are used. The loss of flavor and texture is very slight and is made up for by the removal of bacteria and possible spray residue. Decaying fruits and vegetables always attract files. Most cooked foods made with milk, eggs, meats, or fish, are excellent breeding places for harmful microorganisms, including many which cause poisoning. Chilled leftovers should be used as soon as possible. Leftovers of meat pie, dishes made with cream sauce, soft custard, boiled dressing, and dressing made with cream must be carefully kept and handled and promptly used. They often cause serious poisoning before they taste or smell spoiled. Boiled rice, hominy and other cereals also spoil quickly. TEA IS ALWAYS REFRESHING Bring Freshly Drawn Water to Boll and Then Pour on Requisite Amount of Leaves. To make a pot of perfect tea, an expert in the United States Department of Agriculture directs one to bring freshly drawn water to a boll; pour it on the requisite amount of tea (one even teaspoonful for each cup) in a previously scalded pot, allow it to remain covered for three minutes; then decant or strain into another receptacle. The spent leaves should never be used again. When one intends to serve ice tea on warm afternoons a supply of tea brewed and strained earlier in the day is advisable. When the tea is cool it should be placed next to the ice to chill. Cracked ice added just as the glass is served will not dilute it appreciably. Sugar and a slice of lemon may be used according to individual taste. OF INTEREST TO THE HOUSEWIFE Orange peeling gives an excellent flavor to peach jam. Green grape jam is an excellent accompaniment to meat. Potatoes are delicious when boiled and browned in butter. The meat dressing will never be heavy if you add a liberal pinch of baking powder when mixing it. The spout of a coffee pot may be cleaned with a man's pipe cleaner. Bend one end into a loop and every corner will be reached. (© 1928, Western Newspaper Union.) You may grow for your neighbor, grapes or grape shot, he also will grow grapes or grape shot for you and you will each reap what you have sown—Ruskin. SEASONABLE DISHES Take a small-sized ripe red tomato roman in shape and peel, leaving some of the peeling at the base. Now cut with four slasher way to the base leaving a tulip shaped tomato Fill with chopped celery, nuts or cucumber with a of the peeling at the base. Now cut with four slashef way to the base leaving a tulip shaped tomato Fill with chopped celery, nuts or cucumber with a good salad dressing well-mixed into it. Garnish the top of the flower with a bit of the dressing and a small half of a walnut. Serve with graham bread cut into oblongs on which are placed the same shaped pieces of cheese. Cinnamon Toast.—This is very popular as a tea accompaniment and may be prepared on the electric toaster at the tea table. Spread thin slices of the toast with butter and cover with a mixture of cinnamon and powdered sugar. Allow the toast to stand until it becomes saturated with the melting mixture. The most delicious iceed tea is prepared from freshly-brewed hot tea. Pour the tea over a large piece of ice and serve poured ice, cracked ice in tall glasses. Serve with preserved pinenapple, sliced lemon or clear with sugar. The tea wagon is a valuable piece of furniture for the porch tea or meal. For the housekeeper without a maid it is a great step saver as well as, when nicely laid, an ornament to the occasion. The design with folding leaves will carry the entire service. The lower shelf can be used for plates, glasses and extra dishes. Beet Lima Beans.—Take two cupfuls of fresh lima beans, add one medium-sized green pepper, onion and carrot, chopped. Cook in boiling water until tender, then salt, reserving when draining one-half cupful of the liquor. Melt two tablespoonfuls of butter, add two tablespoonfuls of flour, pepper and salt to taste, then add one-half cupful of the liquor and the same amount of milk; cook until smooth, pour over the vegetables and serve hot. Any liquor not used may be reserved for soup for another meal. Long island Succotash.—Take two cupfuls of corn cut from the cob, also one and two-thirds cupfuls of lima beans and three cupfuls of water and cook the beans for half an hour stirring now and then. Pour off the water from the beans; add the corn two cupfuls of milk, a two inch square of salt pork, two teaspoonfuls of salt two tablespoonfuls of butter, one tablespoonful of flour mixed with one table spoonful of water; simmer for an hour until the beans and corn are tender. Add pepper and serve piping hot When you become so absorbed in the world of things; and in the accumulation of things that you forget to be considerate, courteous and kind, you are not worth a cent to anybody. THINGS WORTH REMEMBERING Use a pint or more of bread crumbs with a cupful of corn meal to make steamed brown bread; the shortening, sugar, egg and salt may be added with a few raisins to suit the taste. Steam or cook in a fire less cooker for several hours. bread; the short ening, sugar, eggs and salt may be added with a few raisins to suit the taste. Steam or cook in a fireless cooker for several hours. A little grated fresh potato added to the chocolate cake batter will make a cake that will keep moist and still not alter the flavor or texture. This is the time of the year when a few things started for the Christmas boxes may be done while sitting on the porch; having more than one article going relieves the monotony, and before one knows it several gifts are all ready to pack. Shine can be easily removed from garments by rubbing lightly with a piece of emery cloth or paper. Slip a tibble over the end of the small curtain rods when running them through the curtain hems. This will save many a tear in the material of the curtain. A handful of salt added to vegetable skins that are burned in the furnace will destroy all odor. Salt sprinkled into the oven when fruit or custard pies boil over will destroy the unpleasant odor of burned milk. An occasional rubbing of strong salt water or moist salt into the scalp is good to prevent falling hair. A pinch of salt added to the pet of coffee brings out the flavor of the coffee. Salt added to the water in a vase of flowers will keep them fresh much longer than fresh water. When making fruit cake, it is much more delicate of flavor and keeps moist longer if steamed an hour or two and baked a short time. Bottles that have become discolored may be cleaned by adding a tablespoonful of vinegar and a few tacks or shot, to shake and remove all deposit. Then wash with hot soap suds and the bottles will be bright and clear. Nellie Maxwell (© 1923, Western Newspaper Union.) No splendor of service can compensate for inferior or badly cooked food. Our courage for women which does not bask back to her home the daughter more willing and capable to enter into the home problems and solve them with heartiness and grace is not an institution of learning. It is an institution of unlearning—Frank Gausulus. THINGS WORTH KNOWING When placing dishes of food on the ice, to prevent skidding place an old can rubber under the dish. Two or three measuring cups are necessary for the wise cook; one may be used for liquids and one for dry ingredients. Two or three measuring cups are necessary for the wise cook; one may be used for liquids and one for dry ingredients. Wash fruits well before serving, except such fruit as bananas, when served sliced. Use a few drops of turpentine in the boiler of clothes when boiling them; it whitens. Added to starch for collars will make them glossy. Silk stockings should be washed after each wearing. The perspiration rots the fiber of the silk and if washed they last much longer. Adding a cupful of fresh sweet milk to a pound of butter, softened so that it may be worked into it, will stretch the butter very noticeably. However, such butter will not keep but a day or two without becoming sour. A short bristle brush of good quality is a fine help in greasing dish and gem pans. Buy a good one that will not shed its bristles and wash well after it is used each time. A small peanut butter glass with a lid can hold so many things for the little girl's lunch box. Touch jelly or jam stains with spirits of camphor before removing the cloth. Fresh tea stains on linen may be removed by sprinkling at once with salt. Velvet coat collars or those of heavy material may be easily cleaned with corn meal moistened well with gasoline, rubbed into the cloth, then brushed out. Do this away from any fire. When mixing butter and flour or butter and sugar, use a fork; it will be done much quicker than with a spoon. In cutting lard into flour use two knives, one in each hand, and the process is hastened. When it comes to the riches of mind and soul can you say that you are a millionaire? To be such a millionaire would certainly be worth while; and here we find a new ambition. SEASONABLE GOOD THINGS When plums are in their prime try the following: Wipe carefully ripe, sound plums. Place the fruit in a stone jar, adding one-quarter of a pound of sugar for each pound of plums. Place the jar in boiling water and cook until Place the fruit in a stone jar, adding one-quarter of a pound of sugar for each pound of plums. Place the jar in boiling water and cook until tender. Remove the stones and put the fruit through a colander; return to the jar and add one-half pound of sugar for each pound of fruit (original weight) and continue to cook until thick and almost dry. Put into jars, seal, and keep in a cool place. Cut in slices and eat on toast or bread. Other fruits may be served in the same way. Carrot Sauce.—Select medium-sized carrots, wash and scrape them; cover with boiling water and cook until tender. Drain and mash, adding salt to taste and two tablespoonfuls of butter. Cook a teaspoonful of flour in the butter until brown, then add the carrots and blend well. When this is done add one and one-half cupfuls of sweet milk and simmer ten minutes. Season with pepper and paprika and pour over broiled fish, adding more salt if needed. To prepare jams or jellies from fruits which lack pectin, take the peeling of an orange, white inner lining and all; cook for a few minutes to remove the white, which is the part that holds the pectin, cover with water and cook slowly for an hour, reducing the liquid to three-quarters or half a cupful. Add a few tablespoonfuls of this to the juice which will not jell and it will thicken. Keep the pectin well corked and it will be ready to use. Commercial pectin may be purchased, but this may be prepared at home when oranges are plentiful. Tea Bread.—Take one cupful of crumbs, the same of milk, one egg, one third of a cupful of sugar, one cupful of raisins, two cupfuls of flour, four teaspoonfuls of baking powder, two teaspoonfuls of salt, two tablespoonfuls of fat. Soften the crumbs in the milk, add the beaten egg and the rest of the ingredients, beat well. Turn into a greased pan and let stand 20 minutes. Bake in a moderate oven one half hour. This makes two small loaves. For variety use nuts instead of raisins. Pineapple Sandwiches.—Cook one cupful of shredded pineapple with three-quarters of a cupful of sugar and the juice of half a lemon. Cook until thick. When cold spread on halved sponge drops and press together, sandwich fashion. Serve with an ice drink.

Glossine To soften dry, curly hair. THE making of party frocks for the little miss is more of a pleasure than a task. No one need go beyond a list of a half-dozen materials to make a choice, and the most popular and engaging ones can be counted on the fingers of one hand—in silks they are crepe de chine, taffeta or georgette, and in cottons, volle, orgleathe, batiste, swiss, net and lace. Nearly all of these fabrics are shown in a variety of flower-like colors, in which pink, malze, blue, lavender and green appear in many light tones. Net and batiste, either plain or embroidered, and lace appear in white I 10 CD A PRETTY PARTY FROCK or cream color, usually worn over a colored silk slip, but sometimes ribbon trimmings or a sash provide the only color touch on these sheer frocks. Many of them have a scalloped hem line, edged with narrow lace, and lace-edged tucks make a fine decoration on dresses of transparent fabrics. Lace flouncing, in simple designs, is occasionally used, and needs nothing in the way of trimming or embellishment except a little ribbon, in girdles or bows. A pretty frock of this kind appears in the picture, made of cream-colored lace and worn over a soft pink slip. There are ties of pink ribbon on the THE JEWELERS' GARDEN . THE LATEST IN JEWELRY shoulders. The little lady is very much dressed up and may be on her way to the dancing class or a birthday party, where one must honor the occasion with her very best clothes. Pretty frocks of crisp taffeta, sleeveless and with wide berthas of organde, have their sashes made of taffeta in the color of the dress and lined with a contrasting shade or color. They are quite wide and long, with full loops. Most frocks have very short sleeves and these make opportunity for cuffs matching the collar. Crepe de chine is often collared with lace-trimmed georgette. Perhaps because more women are finding out that the new beads, ear- --- --- rings and lavalierieres add just the proper touch to the costumes now in vogue, perhaps because of the recently awakened interest in the jewelry of ancient Egypt, and perhaps because manufacturers have brought out so many smart new designs in these pretty trinkets—the mode countenances inexpensive jewelry. In any event there is no denying that beads of glass, wood and composition, earrings of onyx, jade, crystal and ivory, and ornaments of various compositions in brilliant colors are increasing in popularity, and what is far more interesting, they are being I worn by women of unquestionable standing and taste. The fad is here and will probably continue through the fall because of the promised vogue of rich embroideries and high colors in costumes for dress wear. In the illustration above the bead and earring is made of a composition in brilliant holly-berry red. The earrings in the center are of jet and pearl and are worn with charming effect either with an all-white or black-and-white costume. At the right is a lavaliere of galalith, modeled and colored from a pure Egyptian pattern. It provides a pleasing adjunct to the M simple costumes favored for summer. A great deal of care must be exercised in choosing jewelry of this character if it is to be worn with the best effect. Color is most important and unbecoming shades should be avoided as carefully as they are in hats and costumes. Jade earrings, for instance, can hardly be expected to add charm to a naturally sallow complexion, and a lavaliere that clashes with the color of the costume detracts rather than adds to the effectiveness of the ensemble.
