THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY N. A. A. C. P. ASKS REMOVAL OF TUSKEGEE HOSPITAL COMMANDER SITUATION CALLED NATIONAL SCANDAL IN LETTER TO HARDING --- VOL. XXIX. N. A. A. C. P. ASKS TUSKEGEE HOSP SITUATION CALLED N LETTER TO DIRECTOR General Hines, of the Veteran's Bureau, has been asked in a telegram sent by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, to remove Colonel Robert H. Stanley, at present commanding the Government Hospital for colored war veterans at Tuskegee, Alabama. The demand follows disclosure of charges that Colonel Stanley had permitted the use of the Government Hospital supplies by the Ku Klux Klan, that he had failed to protect colored subordinates from the threats of mob violence, and that a number of colored nurses who it was feared might reveal conditions at the hospital, were summarily discharged without cause. A letter to President Harding calling the Tuskegee Hospital a "national scandal" and asking for a definite stand by the Administration, supplements the telegram. The telegram to Director General Hines is as follows: "National Association for the Advancement of Colored People asks that Colonel Robert H. Stanley be removed immediately from command of Government Hospital for colored war veterans at Tuskegee. Our request is based upon information on file in your office, establishing conclusively the failure of Col. Stanley as commander of the Hospital to protect Negro subordinates against mob threats; and showing that Col. Stanley tolerated, if he did not actually conceive at Ku Klux invasion of the Hospital and use of Hospital supplies; further, that Negro nurses have been summarily discharged without cause. We ask the reinstatement of the three nurses removed without cause. Many other acts of discrimination are indicated, as to which a number of white doctors of Col. Stanley's staff are ready and willing to testify." The Letter to President Harding The letter written to President Harding by James Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the dvancement of Colored People, is as follows: "Unfortunately during your absence, the Tuskegee Hospital situation has reached the stage of a national scandal. We have seen a body of lawless mobbists in the name of the Ku Klux Klan, attempting to defy the United States Government, driving out colored men who had been appointed to work at the Tuskegee Hospital. We have seen the white commander of that hospital, Colonel Robert H. Stanley, failing to protect his colored subordinates who had been threatened with mob violence, and tolerating if not conniving at Ku Klux activity in the Government Hospital under his command. "Let me recall to you the exact words of a letter written on April 28 to this Association by your secretary, Mr. Christian, at your direction: "Your communication of April 19th has been submitted to the President and he directs me to make reply and say that the task of selecting and completing the colored staff for the management and administration of Tuskegee Hospital is well under way. It is the plan of the Director of the --- Veterans' Bureau, with the approval of the President, to man this institution completely with a colored personnel.' "Is it the purpose of the United States Government to change its plan because a few mobbists make threats? Is political pressure in Washington going to retain in office a commanding officer who has shown himself so unfit as has Colonel Stanley? These questions colored people throughout the nation, and white people as well, are now asking. We cannot do otherwise than present them to you, for we have steadily and persistently warned your Administration of the danger in making any concession whatever to the mob sentiment represented by the Ku Klux Klan and by certain white people of Alabama. "We have already asked Director Hines to remove Colonel Stanley. We ask your approval for this action, preceded of course by a thorough investigation and substiation of the charges against this officer. We ask furthermore for the exact continuance of the government's plan, that is, a complete colored staff of qualified physicians and nurses, from the commanding officer down, and, if necessary, United States troops in Alabama to see that they are not interfered with in the work to which their government has called them. (Signed) "JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, "Secretary National Association for the Advancement of Colored People." E.C.Brown Talks to Georgians on Better Relations Attended Meeting of Standard Life Insurance Co., Atlanta—Company Has Doubled Capital Atlanta, Ga.—The need of establishing more cordial relations between the Negro business men of the North and South was emphasized by E. C. Brown of Brown & Stevens, Philadelphia bankers, at the semi-annual meeting of the Standard Life Insurance Company, held here Thursday, July 19. Mr. Brown was on a good will tour of the South. In his talk he said that in order to successfully promote large business projects it would be absolutely necessary that Negroes of all sections co-operate. The directors of the Standard Life voted to increase its capital stock from $125,000 to $250,000. They plan to enter a number of new states, including New York, in the near future. H. C. Dugas of Augusta was elected first vice president and Dr. W. F. Boddie, treasurer. Other officers of the Standard Life are Herman E. Perry, president; N. B. Young, Tallahasse; A. L. Lewis, Jacksonville; T. H. Hay, Memphis, and W. H. King, Atlanta, vice presidents; J. A. Robinson, secretary, and T. J. Ferguson, cashier. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 4, 1923 J. W. Johnson Writes on "What America Owes the Negro" Article Published in "Our World" for August "The Negro is the creator of the only things artistic that have yet sprung from American soil and been universally acknowledged as distinctive American products," according to James-Weldon Johnson, Secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, writing in the August "Our World," (Published at 9 East 37th Street, New York City.) After reciting that Negroes sailed with Columbus, explored with Varvaez fought in every war on American soil, and contributed by their labor to the nation's prosperity, Mr. Johnson says: "However, honorable and glorious as is the Negro's record, it is not the most important story about him in America. For a display of the elements of stamina and courage and loyalty and of intelligence, it does not begin to compare with his peace record. It is in the victories of peace that the Negro has demonstrated his highest claim to full membership in the groups that enter into the making of America. It is in the victories of peace that he has stood the test of the most essential qualities of manhood and citizenship—of stamina, patience, sacrifice, courage, determination, intelligence and faith in oneself. Indeed, in my opinion, it requires greater courage and a higher degree of qualities, mental and spiritual, for a Negro to be successful, respected and self-respecting citizen in, say, Mississippi than it requires for a Negro to win the Croix de Guerre in France." Wills Demands Fight With Dempsey Before He Clashes With Firpo Wills Demands Fight With Dempsey Before He Clashes With Firpo New York, July 31.—Harry Wills, Negro aspirant for the heavyweight boxing title, and his manager, Paddy Mullins, appeared Tuesday before the State Athletic Commission to demand that Jack Dempsey be compelled to defend his title against Wills before meeting Luis Angel Firpo. The commission reserved decision. Mullins was understood to have told the commission that Wills, under an agreement signed with Dempsey's representatives some months ago in the commission's offices, was entitled to a chance at the title this year and that the commission should see that he got it. There was no mention of an application from Tex Rickard for a license to promote the Dempsey-Firpo match on Sept. 14 at the Polo Grounds, and none of the commissioners would say when action, if any, would be taken in the Wills case. 20,000 IN POST-OFFICE A recent canvass shows that there are more than 20,000 colored people in the employment of the Federal Government in the postal department. They are classified as follows: 15,000 carriers, 3,000 post-office clerks, 2,000 railway mail clerks and about 700 laborers. Negroes Excluded From Army Training Camps in New Jersey National Association Sends Protest to Secretary of War Weeks A letter protesting against the exclusion of Negroes from the C. M. T. training camps established by the War Department, has been sent to Secretary of War, John W. Weeks, by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the specific case complained of being that of Anthony R. Mayo, Jr., of Bloomfield, New Jersey, who was rejected because of his color. The Association's letter to the Secretary of War, is as follows: Hon. John W. Weeks, Secretary of War, Washington, D. C. Dear Mr. Secretary: The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People protests most emphatically against the exclusion of Negroes from the C. M. T. camps, established by the War Department for United States citizens. As proof that such exclusion on account of race and color is taking place, I beg to submit the following letter, addressed to Mr. Anthony R. Mayo, Jr., of Bloomfield, New Jersey, and signed by 2nd Lieutenant R. P. Ovenshine, stationed at Governor's Island, New York. The letter reads: Subject: C. M. T. Camps for Negroes. To Mr. Anthony R. Moya, Jr., 3 Lawrence Place, Bloomfield, N. J. 1. It has been the established policy of the War Department to hold C. M. T. Camps for Negroes if a sufficient number applied to warrant the holding of such camps. In view of the fact that only a few Negroes in the Second Corps Area have applied to attend such a camp, it is not deemed practicable to hold a camp for them. 2. This headquarters regrets that it will not be possible to send you to camp this year, and hopes that you will not lose any of your interest in true Americanism through the disappointment of this year. For the C. M. T. C. Officer: Does true Americanism for a black man mean, Mr. Secretary, being excluded from training camps and being ordered to the front without training? It is needless for us to inform you that this is an insult not only to Negroes but to United States Citizenship in behalf of which Negroes have fought with honor in every war that has taken place upon American soil. May we inquire whether it is really the policy of the War Department under your Administration to countenance such an outrage and if it is not your policy, what steps you intend to take to discipline the officers responsible for such a letter as the one quoted? Faithfully yours, (Signed) JAMES WELDON JOHNSON, Secretary, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Columbine Grand Chapter, O. E.

Former Government Employee Values Damages at $100,-000 Boston, Mass., July 26.—James C. Tippett, an accountant here, filed a $100,000 alienation suit this week against Joseph G. Lloyd, white, 60-year-old president of the Lloyd Iron and Steel Company. Lloyd is a millionaire and father of three grown children and is a power in local financial and social circles. One daughter is married to prominent Boston surgeon and another to a merchant. Tippett, who is 29 years of age, resides at 166 W. Springfield street. He claimed that his wife, Iola Ernestine Fitzgerald, now living at 66 Braddock Park, and Lloyd engaged in a series of escapades, the result of which she is now estranged from him. Mr. and Mrs. Tippett are natives of Longview, Texas, were sweethearts at school together until 1915, when they were married. "We came to Washington," he declared, "where I received a position as file clerk in the Government Land Office, remaining there until 1920. My wife was also a Government employee. "Later I went to Boston and worked at various clerical positions. My wife was offered a position in the Lloyd Company, 12 Huntington Avenue, as a typist and telephone operator. She received ten dollars a week, but quit when she found her work interfered with the rearing of our child. "After he left, the intimacy with Lloyd began and he was more of a husband to Iola than I was." Mrs. Tippett admitted being with Lloyd on several occasions, but said there was nothing wrong. "My husband is jealous. Mr. Lloyd has been very good to me in many ways." Appointed as Trustee By Governor Philadelphia, Pa., July 24.—Ernest T. Atwell, sociologist, invited by Governor Gifford Pinchot to serve on the Board of Trustees at the Eastern Penitentiary, accepted Tuesday and the appointment was made immediately. Mr. Atwell is head of the Community Service here, a national welfare organization, growing from the War Camp Community Work. This appointment marked Governor Pinchot's first recognition of the race. Calhoun Ordered Back to Veterans' Hospital By Gen. Hines, Director Montgomery, Ala.—Reports reaching here Sunday, July 22, from Tuskegee, Ala., were to the effect that General Hines, head of the War Veterans' Bureau, had ordered John C. Calhoun back to Tuskegee for duty at the Federal Hospital for disabled Negro veterans there. Calhoun was sent to Tuskegee several weeks ago as disbursing agent to fill the position formerly held by a white woman who failed to pass the civil service test but left after several hundred Ku Klux had paraded, following threats against Calhoun's life and failure of Col. Stanley to give Calhoun any protection. General Hines, the report adds, has ordered Colonel R. H. Stanley, commanding officer at the hospital, to give Calhoun full military protection. Calhoun is said to be in Atlanta. MISS AIRS, YOU ARE A THING DIVINE—SUCH WONDERFUL EYES BELIEVE ME, FAIR ONE OF DREAMS, IS SIMPLY ADORE YOU!

PRESIDENT HARDING IS DEAD American nation bows its head today in inestimable hour and at a time when hearts had a hope that speedy recovery was certain, Presidialized by a stroke of apoplexy and was carried before his wife, who sat by his bed, was always unwelcome, always carrying deep ain of distress, came to the Nation's Chief at the spared. He had the people's interest at being their most intricate problems, and from there was seeking a way out of the world's distress. Only a short time ago President Harding hearing telling addresses on live issues, grief and future. He was tremendously in com whose ranks he arose, seriously into his youths and seemed a wholesome part of us. He the poignant grief and sorrow into which he engaged. On June 25 and 26 he was our guest, after testimony of its love and regard for the innovation that amounted almost to worship. He appeared, when here, equal to any demi and energies. But the Almighty God decreed us of his glory, in the hour when myriad he him for a solving of earthly problems, he wilt the realms of the blest, and in the cloister. THE American nation bows its head today in inestimable grief. At an inopportune hour and at a time when hearts had been brightened by the hope that speedy recovery was certain, President Warren G. Harding was seized by a stroke of apoplexy and was carried into the Great Beyond almost before his wife, who sat by his bed, was aware of the collapse. Death always unwelcome, always carrying deep sorrow, always leaving a train of distress, came to the Nation's Chief at an hour that he could least be spared. He had the people's interest at heart, he was closely studying their most intricate problems, and from a sweet, Christian forbearance was seeking a way out of the world's turmoil and the nation's unrest. Only a short time ago President Harding traversed the country delivering telling addresses on live issues, gravely affecting America's present and future. He was tremendously in earnest, he took the people, from whose ranks he arose, seriously into his confidence; he spoke plain truths and seemed a wholesome part of us. Denver citizens can well share the poignant grief and sorrow into which the nation is so suddenly plunged. On June 25 and 26 he was our guest, and no citizen ever gave greater testimony of its love and regard for the President. He was given an ovation that amounted almost to worship. Of strong, rugged physique, he appeared, when here, equal to any demands made upon his strength and energies. But the Almighty God decreed otherwise and in the fullness of his glory, in the hour when myriad hearts looked appealingly to him for a solving of earthly problems, he was called to a higher seat in the realms of the blest, and in the cloistered chamher of the Immortals. THE WILL TO WORK nations of experts and eminent authorities on the land as doctrinal, the nation is on the verge of an fact we are told that the wheels of industry seem humming at high speed for some time. Even if the fact is not readily discernible. We are true however that the call for labor is increasingly decent wage. The question to be considered is whether or not we have the will to meet the demand for labor in occupation. It arrails instead of the white collar. Manual and unskilled must ever be the backbone of production and the office employee fill important utilization 'tis true, but while a few hundred requirements of the demands of a prosperous nation of day laborers will suffice for such a committee from the Denver Colored Civic Association labor conditions throughout the western state and to note the extent of discrimination, if any occupations. The report brought back was the fact that far greater use of Negro labor was needed of. But it was mainly on railroads and we were given opportunity. There is much young men will make no mistake if they are of these industries with a will and a zest but requirements be of the most arduous character, yes and many of them, but we need skilled laborers. In a vast number of the largest Negro race has been cursed by the presence of most of their ability to "get by" off the earning time they were known as "hustlers," what the world of today, however, has adopted as them. The "hustler" of the present is a respect not afraid of work, who maintains a home in the upbuilding of the physical and moral life, economic exactions of today fairly and just is a social outcast, a vagabond and, thank goodness, number each year. The Negro race have a high men who must soon assume the burdens of earners soon. They can best fill the role but by meeting the demands of the hour upon a farm. IF THE opinions of experts and eminent authorities on the subject may be accepted as doctrinal, the nation is on the verge of a great business revival. In fact we are told that the wheels of industry and prosperity have been humming at high speed for some time. The suggestion is cheering, even if the fact is not readily discernible. We believe it may be accepted as true however that the call for labor is increasing each day and at a fairly decent wage. The question to be considered so far as our group is concerned is whether or not we have the inclination and possess the will to meet the demand for labor in occupations that call for use of the overalls instead of the white collar. Manual labor, both of the skilled and unskilled must ever be the backbone of prosperity. The professional man and the office employee fill important places in the scheme of civilization 'tis true, but while a few hundred thousand of these may meet the requirements of the demands of a prosperous era, nothing less than millions of day laborers will suffice for such a contingency. Recently a committee from the Denver Colored Civic Association went out to investigate labor conditions throughout the western states as affecting Negroes and to note the extent of discrimination, if any, against us in certain occupations. The report brought back was truly gratifying and revealed the fact that far greater use of Negro labor was being made than we dreamed of. But it was mainly on railroads and in the mills and shops that we were given opportunity. There is much hope in the outlook and our young men will make no mistake if they will only enter the open door of these industries with a will and a zest but should do so even when the requirements be of the most arduous character. We want our college men, yes and many of them, but we need and must have many more skilled laborers. In a vast number of the larger cities of the country the Negro race has been cursed by the presence of a parasitical group who boast of their ability to "get by" off the earnings of the other fellow. At one time they were known as "hustlers," whatever that might have meant. The world of today, however, has adopted an entirely new use for the term. The "hustler" of the present is a respected person who digs in, who is not afraid of work, who maintains a home and contributes something to the upbuilding of the physical and moral life of the community. The economic exactions of today fairly and justly outlaws the parasite. He is a social outcast, a vagabond and, thank goodness, growing fewer in number each year. The Negro race have a hopeful, buoyant crop of young men who must soon assume the burdens of home builders and wage earners soon. They can best fill the role by not seeking the easy way out but by meeting the demands of the hour whether it be in factory or upon a farm.

PRESIDENT HARDING DIES OF STROKE OF APOPLEXY END COMES SUDDENLY WHILE DOCTORS ARE ABSENT; EXECUTIVE PASSES AWAY WHILE WIFE SITS BY BEDSIDE COOLIDGE SWORN IN AS PRESIDENT NATIONS THIRTIETH CHIEF EXECUTIVE TAKES OATH ADMINISTERED BY FATHER IN HIS HOME San Francisco.—President Harding died at 7:30 o'clock Thursday night, August 2, stricken by a stroke of apoplexy after having almost won his fight against broncho-pneumonia and other complications. The end came suddenly and without warning while Mrs. Harding sat by his bedside reading to him. Two nurses were the only other persons in the room, and there was no time for a last word from the nation's leader, either to his wife or to the republic he served. ```markdown ``` END COMES SUDDENLY ABSENT; EXECUTED WHILE WIFE SEE COOLIDGE SWORN NATIONS THIRTIETH TAKES OATH ADMINI- IN HIS San Francisco.—President H. day night, August 2, stricken by almost won his fight against broc- cations. The end came suddenly and ing sat by his bedside reading to other persons in the room, and t from the nation's leader, either served. A shudder shook his frame, weakened by seven days of illness and worn by a trip of 7,500 miles from Washington to Alaska and return as far as San Francisco, he collapsed and it was over. Mrs. Harding only had time to rush to the door and call: "Find Dr. Boone and the others, quick," meaning the physicians. Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer, personal physician to the president, was in a nearby room, but when he hurried into the room medical skill was useless. Mrs. Harding was as brave and strong after the end as she had been faithful to the end. Although not strong and still affected by her illness of nearly a year ago, she declared she could not break down and she did not break down in the hour of her greatest grief. Interment will be at Marion, the small city where Warren G. Harding struggled determinedly forward, first as a newspaper publisher, then as lieutenant governor, and then as United States Senator to the highest office within the gift of the American people. The news of the President's death, the saddest news that telegraph wires can carry, was flushed as soon as a statement could be prepared. It was phrased in these words: "The President died instantaneously and without warning and while conversing with members of his family at 7:30 p. m. Death was apparently due to some brain involvement, probably an apoplexy. "During the day he had been free from discomfort and there was every justification for anticipating a prompt recovery. "C. E. Sawyer, M. D., "Ray Lyman Wilbur, M. D. "C. M. Cooper, M. D., "J. T. Boone, M. D., "Hubert Work, M. D. "Aug. 2, 1923, 7:35 p. m." The story of the President's tragic end was told officially in this way: "The President died at 7:30 p. m. Mrs. Harding and the two nurses, Miss Ruth Powderly and Miss Sue Dauser, were in the room at the time. Mrs. Harding was reading to the President when utterly without warning, a slight shudder passed through his frame, he collapsed, and all recognized that the end had come. A stroke of apoplexy was the cause of his death. "Within a few moments all of the President's official party had been summoned." Secretary Hoover was the first of the four members of the President's UNDERWOOD & UNDERWOOD Calvin Coolidge, the Nation's New Chief Executive Calvin Coolidge, the Nation's New Chief Executive cabinet who are in San Francisco, to learn the sad news. He went into the room at once and in a few minutes came out, obviously deeply distressed and in a low voice said to newspaper men, most of whom did not know of the hurried call almost half an hour previously: "Boys, I can't tell you a thing." "The President had a most splendid afternoon," said Lieutenant Com. Joel T. Boone, assistant to the President's personal physician. "When I left the room I commented 'Doesn't he look splendid?' "Then, all at once, he just went like that—" the commander snapped his fingers. "Just like that," he repeated. "Something just snapped; that's all." The chief executive of the nation and by virtue of his office and personality, one of the world's leading figures, passed away at the time when his physicians, his family and his people thought that medical skill, hope and prayer, had won the battle against disease. The disease had been conquered, the fire was out, but seven days of silent, though intense suffering had left their marks and a stroke of apoplexy came without an instant's warning and before physicians could be called, members of his party summoned, or remedial measures taken, he passed from life's stage after having for nearly two and a half years served the nation and for many years his native state of Ohio. The President had been ill since Thursday, July 26. Some crabs which he ate while aboard the transport Henderson, just before reaching Vancouver, B. C., proved to have been unfit for food. This caused an attack of ptomaine poisoning, which did not appear at first to be serious. The President was able to carry out his program at Vancouver, and the next day delivered two speeches at Seattle. The hot weather experienced there, however, caused a recurrence of the gastro-intestinal disturbances and when the President took the train south, bound for California, it was recognized that he was a sick man. He failed to improve during the journey, and the heat and disturbed sleep incident to the trip, in fact, weakened him. A third official statement, announced that Vice President Calvin Coolidge, the next man who occupies the first position in the United States government, has been notified of President Harding's death. The message was signed by Attorney General Daugherty and Secretaries Hoover, Wallace and Work. It follows: "The President died at 7:30 p. m. from a stroke of cerebral apoplexy. The end came peaceably and without warning." With the passing of Mr. Harding, the office of President devolves upon Calvin Coolidge, vice president of the United States, a man silent in nature, but demonstrated as strong in emergencies. He was notified of the death of Mr. Harding at his home in Plymouth, Vt. Washington.—Calvin Coolidge took oath as President of the United States at Plymouth, Vt., at 2:47 a. m. on Aug. 2. The new President was sworn in by his father, who is a notary public and at whose home he was visiting. The text of the pledge as prescribed by the constitution was telephoned to him by the White House. The new President heard the news of President Harding's death and his own elevation to the nation's leadership from his aged father, who had risen to take Secretary Christian's telegram from the messenger who had brought it by automobile to the Coolidge home at Plymouth Notch. He dressed quickly and came downstairs to meet the newspaper men who arrived hard on the heels of the messenger. A trifle pale, but steady, solemn and quiet as always is his wont, he walked with simple dignity down the old stairway and into the homey sitting room where the newspapermen awaited him. Mrs. Coolidge, in gray, followed him, weeping. Stepping to the little round center table on which stood an oil lamp, the room's only illumination, the new President read Secretary Christian's message. Then slowly and quietly, he dictated his own statement setting forth in brief the new executive's policy, and directed his secretary, Erwin Gelisser, to make copies of it for the press.

Then near the guest's table the adornment was rendered complete by a placement of stand lamps, while the whole scene was given incomparable charm by a constant glow of moonlight sifting through the trees.

They're coming back again. Colorado's favorite colored vocalists the world-famous and internationally popular Williams' Inhale Singers. popular Williams' Jubilee singers. On this, their eighth Colorado tour, they will appear one night only, in concert, at the Auditorium, Monday evening, August 13. There is a marvelous potency and fascinating appeal in the true Afro-American songs, from the primitive folk songs, lullabies, plantation melodies, river and boat songs, with their plaintive minor harmonies, to the rousing camp meeting songs and fervid spirituals. Because they echo the joys and sorrows of a people they touch the hearts polignantly, and in their lighter moods and in the care-free darky comics they set toes to tapping and shoulders to swaying with their matchless rhythm. Dvorak, the greatest composer, knew the beauty and artistic merit of these songs and embodied them in several of his American-created compositions. Musical critics everywhere have declared the Williams' Jubilee Singers to be the finest interpreters of Afro-American harmony. Each member of the company is a star in his or her own right and has added to inherent, native musical talent, the study and training that has made him or her a finished vocal artist. Certainly no group of colored singers has the national and international renow and the perennial popularity today possessed by the Williams organization. For 20 years they have been delighting American audiences and they have toured England, Scotland, Wales, Belgium, Germany and France. In London alone they gave 130 performances, appearing in all principal theaters, including the Coliseum. While abroad all received additional training under Miss Ida Aldridge, student of Jenny Lind and one of the greatest vocal master abroad. All members of the company have been educated in some of America's best schools, including Fisk University at Nashville, the school that introduced the original Fisk Jubilee Singers. Mr. Robert S. Killebrew, the lyric tenor, was a sergeant in the A. E. F. and participated in several of the hardest engagements of the Meuse-Argonne offensive. The local concert will be heard at popular prices and the public is urged to make early reservations to be sure of obtaining the desired seats. Seats will be on sale at Knight-Campbell's and the Wells Music Co. store on and after August 8. There is one element that changes in lyric fashions have failed to disturb. That is the music of the Negro, as he brought it from Africa to the southern United States, and perpetuated it there through plantation and industrial life. So there is perennial popularity for such of the race as choose to exploit its special music, either by voice or instrument. Which is apropos of the fact that Williams' Jubilee Singers will give a concert at the Auditorium Monday evening, August 13th. This is probably the most accomplished and important group of Negro singers now before the public. Certainly it has international fame and success to its credit. Among its members are Charles P. Williams, tenor; J. S. Crabbe, basso profundo; Julia Mae Kennedy, dramatic soprano; Vera Love Gretts, lyric soprano; Clara K. Williams, contralto, and Dixie Ballad singer; Ethel M. Bowmer, soprano and pianist; Robert S. Killebrew, lyric tenor, and J. H. Johnson, baritone and musical director. All are graduates of institutions of higher education. Their program at the one local concert will include jubilee, plantation, cabin, river and camp meeting songs, as well as popular, operatic and classical numbers. Tickets will be sold at popular prices and the public is urged to secure seats or make advance reservations early. Seats will be on sale on and after August 5th, at Knight-Campbell's and the Wells Music Co. stores. Cheyenne, Wyo., News Mrs. Myrtle Tyus has recovered from an operation for appendicitis.

"A Weak Giant" was the subject of the sermon delivered by Rev. S. S. Fairly at the Baptist meeting on Sunday evening. Rev. Fairly accepted his text from Judges, xvl., 17. He proved how the enemy punctured the weak points in the Christians' armor and laughed at his helplessness. Rev. Fairly has pastored here since 图 Aug. 15, 1922. During his year service he has truly preached the Gospel eloquently and with an object to reach all our faults. He is not one of the preachers who use the pulpit to fight or belittle those who differ. In every sermon he has shown where is the Christian's strength or weakness. The members of the Second Baptist Church recognize him as an able leader, citizens respect him and encourage him in his efforts to place Cheyenne on a high moral standard. The otd church edifice on Thomas street has been torn down. A modern building will be erected instead. The meetings are held at $16 West Nineteenth street. Several thousand dollars has been subscribed and paid, representing an average donation of $100 per member. The various clubs are working in perfect harmony. The citizens who have race pride will rally to support this church, and before another year passes the Baptists will have erected a proper memorial to the cause in Wyoming. A revival will be held at the A. M. E. Church commencing Aug. 15th, conducted by Rev. W. T. Thornton. Rev Thornton will be assisted by the Christian members of this community. Rev Thornton has been with us nearly a year. He accepted this charge at a time when it would take an able pastor to hold certain factions together. Rev Thornton has made good.

(Prepared by the United States Department ordinary stove the piece of of Agriculture.) of Agriculture) As soon as the home garden begins to produce a surplus over the daily table needs, the thrifty housekeeper plans to can or dry the extra materials for winter use. The United States Department of Agriculture suggests that vegetables and fruits can be dried in an oven, in trays or racks over the kitchen stove, or in a specially constructed drier, of such a size that it can be placed on the top of an ordinary wood or coal range, or over a kerosene stove. These driers hold a series of small trays on which fruits or vegetables are placed after being prepared for drying. Portable outdoor evaporators are especially convenient when it is desired to dry as much as ten bushels of fruit or vegetables per day. They are usually constructed of wood except the parts in direct contact with the heater. The homemade dry kiln used in some sections of the country can be cheaply and easily made of brick and stone. A very satisfactory drier can be made of lath (preferably cypress, popular or other nonresinous wood), wire screens and cotton canvas or heavy unbleached muslin. It can be used over a wood stove, furnace, oil or gas stove if care is taken to see that it does not become overheated and catch fire, and can be made in size to suit the particular source of heat used. It can be made to take apart and pack flat. Material Needed. A five-tray drier with bottom 24 by 11½ inches can be made from the following material: Uprights, 4 pieces of lath, 1¼ by % inch, 23 inches long. Cleats or shelves, 10 pieces of lath 1¼ by % inch, 24 inches long. Side braces, 4 pieces of lath 1¼ by % inch, 24 inches long. Side pieces for trays, 10 pieces lath 1¼ by % inch, 21 inches long.

Canvas or muslin, 7 feet long and 24 inches wide. Brads, 1½ and 1 inch lengths. Double-pointed tacks. Sheet iron (preferably galvanized), 1 piece 18 by 7 inches. In case the drier is made rigid it will require in addition: End braces, 4 pieces of lath 1¼ by % inch, 12½ inches long. ½ inch galvanized wire, 2 pieces 12 inches long. In case the drier is made to fold it will require: Iron rods, 4 pieces $13\frac{1}{2}$ inches long, $ \frac{1}{4} $ inch diameter, with $ 2\frac{1}{2} $ inch thread cut from each end and each end supplied with 2 nuts.

Through these, if the drier is to be folded, drill four holes 3-16-inch in diameter, if the iron rods are $ \frac{4}{8} $ inch. In the upper brace drill the holes 3 inches from each end. In the lower brace drill them 6 inches from each end. Through these holes put the iron rod so one of the nuts is on the inside and the other on the outside. Mods Hold Sides Rigid. These rods hold the sides rigidly together, but as they can be quickly removed the drier can be packed flat. On the two lower iron rods place a piece of sheet iron about 18 by 7 inches. This will act as a radiator, and at the same time serve as a protection against the direct heat of the flame when the drier is put over an oil or gas stove. When used over an ordinary stove the piece of sheet iron may be removed. In case the drier is to be made without the iron rods, the end braces are nailed in place, two at each end, fitting with the braces on the sides. In that case holes are drilled, as when the drier is to be taken apart, 6 inches from each end in the two lower side braces. A piece of heavy wire is put through each pair of holes and on these the sheet iron is placed when used over a flame. Around the bottom of each of the four uprights place a piece of sheet tin to prevent scorching the wood when the drier is placed on top of an ordinary stove or over a furnace. An eight-penny nail driven halfway into the lower end of each of the uprights can take the place of the tin as support for the drier. The canvas is next put on so is it about 2 inches from the lower end of the uprights. Tack the one end of the canvas to the front side of one of the uprights and tack along the sides. It is important to tack it once or twice on each of the shelf cheats in order to keep the canvas close to the sides so as to prevent the loss of heat which will take place if a space is left between the canvas and the cleats. The extra width of canvas is allowed to overlap top. The canvas is fastened on both sides, and holes are cut for the iron rods to pass through if the drier is made to fold. The extra length of canvas is put around the front end and fastened with a pin or with small clasps. Extra Width of Canvas. The extra width of canvas extending over the top part of drier can be folded, stretched tightly in the corners, and fastened with pins, clasps or buttons so as to hold the canvas tight and prevent it from dropping down on the upper tray, and still leaving an opening in the center for the passage of the heated-air current. If preferred, and for the type of drier that is not to be taken down, a single piece of canvas can be nailed over the top and a square hole cut in the center about 17 by 8 inches. This opening may be covered with coarse mosquito netting to keep out insects. The trays are nailed together so that they are 10 inches wide, inside measure. All edges of the pieces of the wire screen are bent over one-fourth inch and hammered flat, so the edges will not be rough. The screen is then tacked to the bottom of the trays. The trays are placed on the shelves or cleats in such a way that they may be either pushed to the back of the drier or left at the front. WARM WEATHER MEAT SALADS Excellent for Either Lunch or Supper and Any Left Over Material May Be Utilized. It is often a problem to serve foods, which will appeal to appetites made fickle by hot weather. Meat salads are excellent for either lunch or supper, suggests the United States Department of Agriculture. Any cold left-over meat (beef, pork, veal or lamb) may be used. Cut the meat into cubes and mix it with diced cucumber, celery, radishes or onion, or any preferred combination of these crisp vegetables, season well, and if desired, mix with a little oil and vinegar. Serve with lettuce or shredded cabbage and mayonnaise or boiled dressing. Medicine stains may often be removed by soaking in alcohol. * * * * Swiss chard and onions is a good mixture; so is cabbage and potatoes. * * * * Stored linen will remain white for a long time if wrapped in blue tissue paper. * * * * Keep lettuce and celery in the ice box until served. It must be cold and crisp to be appetizing. * * * * Aluminum pots may be had in sets.

SUMMER PIES AND PASTRY A good rich pastry is more easily digested than one which lacks shortening and is tough. Pastry that is made quickly and handled very little is much more apt to be flaky. Take one cupful of shortening to three cupfuls of flour, a ing and is tough. Pastry that is made quickly and handled very little is much more apt to be flaky. Take one cupful of shortening to three cupfuls of flour, a half-teaspoonful of salt and just enough ice water to hold the mixture together. Some good cooks add baking powder—a half-teaspoonful or less—but the best authorities agree that baking-powder crust is very apt to soak and is undesirable for berry pies, which have juice. Cut in the shortening with two knives; when well-mixed, add the water, roll out and line the tin with the crust. There are any number of delicious one-crust pies, which are especially wholesome for warm weather. Blueberry Meringue Pie.—Take one cupful of sugar, one tablespoonful of flour and the yolks of two eggs. Beat all together and add three cupfuls of blueberries. Bake with one crust and cover with a meringue, using the whites of the eggs, beaten stiff, and four tablespoonfuls of sugar; flavor to taste. Less sugar and no flavoring may be used and half a dozen marshmallows, cut in halves, placed about on the meringue will make a pretty and tasty frosting. Arabian Pudding.—Cream two tablespoonfuls of butter with three tablespoonfuls of sugar, add one well-beaten egg, three tablespoonfuls of sweet milk, one cupful of flour sifted with one teaspoonful of baking powder, one-quarter of a cupful of any chopped nuts, twelve dates stoned and cut in pieces. Mix and bake in a well-buttered pan. Bake twenty minutes. Serve with the following sauce: Take one cupful of sugar, one tablespoonful of flour well mixed, the juice and rind of a lemon and a scant pint of boiling water, cook until smooth, adding a tablespoonful of butter and a grating of nutmeg just before serving. A spoonful of jelly will give the sauce both color and flavor. "Let the furrows be plowed deeply enough while the brain cells are plastic, then human energies will result in efficiency and the line of least resistance will be the right line." WHAT SHALL WE HAVE FOR DINNER? When sandwiches are so often in use during the summer a different kind of bread will add variety to the menu. Baking Pan Orange and Nut Bread. — While oranges were plentiful early in the year the careful housewife prepared a pound or more of candied orange peel to use for various dishes as well as a confection. This bread will need a half cupful of candied orange peel chopped, five cupfuls of pastry flour, one cupful of graham flour, one teaspoonful of salt, six teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one cupful of sugar, and one-half cupful of chopped pecan meats. Beat one egg, add one cupful of milk to the sifted dry ingredients, then combine the fruit and nuts. Turn into a buttered loaf pan and bake in a moderate oven 45 minutes. Ragout of Liver.—Cut one pound of calf's liver into dice, and put it over the fire in cold water or stock, to cover. Cook one hour, add seasoning and salt, pepper with a little ground mace, a spring of parsley and a little sweet marjoram. Rub together two tablespoonfuls of browned flour with one of butter, add this to the sauce pan with one teaspoonful each of lemon juice and worcestershire sauce. Stir until thick and serve dotted with cubes of currant jelly. Tarte Alsacienne.—Beat the yolks of eight eggs very light, add four tablespoonfuls of powdered sugar, three and one-half tablespoonfuls of pastry flour and one-half teaspoonful of vanilla. Fold in the stiffly-beaten whites and spread very thin in layer cake pans and bake in a slow oven until soft like a griddle cake. Do not bake until crisp. It will make ten or eleven layers. Put together with this filling: Melt one-half pound of chocolate in one-fourth of a cupful of hot water, add one cupful of powdered sugar, one teaspoonful of vanilla and four beaten eggs. Cook until smooth. Frost the top of the cake with powdered sugar and coffee, using a bit of butter. With orange juice as a base, there are countless cooling drinks which may be supplied in the home. Jelly, canned fruit juice and lemons may also be counted upon to add great variety. Nellie Maxwell The Kitchen Cabinet (©, 1923, Western Newspaper Union.) There should be, methinks, as little merit in loving a woman for her beauty as in loving a man for his prosperity; both are subject to change.—Pope. HOT-WEATHER DRINKS A drink that refreshes and nourishes at the same time may have orange juice, egg, milk, cocoa, or a combination of any two which go well together. ```markdown ``` Egg nog, prepared with beaten egg, milk and a dash of nutmeg, or a little flavoring extract, may be chilled with ice and, though a real food, be given as a drink. There is nothing that so quenches thirst on a hot day as does good, cold water; combined with lemon juice and sugar or other fruit juice, and ice, we have a punch. If a bottle of charged water is added to give it snap it is more appealing to the taste. A drink which is enjoyed by many is ice grape juice, with a few spoonfuls of ginger ale added just as it is served. Lime juice, pineapple juice, raspberry shrub or jelly dissolved and added to a pitcher of lemonade will make a drink which is different. Be sure to insure the family for the hot weather of another summer by putting up all the grape juice in every available jar which will seal air-tight. Place one cupful of sugar, two cupfuls of ripe, fresh grapes in a two-quart jar, fill it with boiling water—be sure the jars are sterilized and that the water is boiling—fill to overflowing and seal at once. This grape juice has all of the aroma and flavor of the grape which is often lacking in the cooked product; that is, in the cooked and strained juice. When to be used, drain from the fruit and use without diluting with water. Iced tea is much better in flavor if prepared fresh and poured over enough ice to cool it. Serve with lemon, chopped pineapple, ginger or as one's taste dictates. A cold cup of coffee or cocoa is often enjoyed. With a spoonful of ice cream in the glass one has a dainty dessert. To prepare the cocoa sirup, cook it in water with sugar to sweeten, cool and bottle. Add a little to a glass of crushed ice, serve with cream—plair whipped or ice cream. The community cannot rise much above the level of the individual home, and the home rises only by the pull of the community regulations or by the initiative of a few especially far-sighted individuals.—Ellen Richards. SUMMER DISHES Planning menus for hot weather and trying to tempt the jaded appetites of some members of the family is the present work of the housewife. PINEAPPLE Cooling foods such as succulent vegetables refreshing fruits, crisp salads and icy desserts are the appropriate foods for the hot weather. Nothing so appeals to the appetite on a sultry morning like a dish of luscious berries or a chilled and flavorous muskmelon. Pineapple, too, is always a favored fruit, is good for digestion and makes a delicious combination with other fruits which lack its zest. The housemother must consider herself, too, in the planning of hot weather food for the work should be made as simple as possible, having the cooking done early, or the day before. The trouble with most hostesses who have no maids is that they try to prepare too elaborate meals. The average guest will enjoy a simple meal much better than one which has cost his hostess hours in the hot kitchen. A hot, tired hostess will take the edge off enjoyment from the whole family. For the already overburdened housewife who has watched the approach of a flock of unexpected company, a few easy-to-prepare dishes will be a boon. A thrifty woman who is subject to week-end avalanches of company should always have a jar of mayonnaise ready in the ice box, a bottle of olives, and such foods as are commonly canned, a box of cookies, and a fresh pie or two with a cake which will keep for a week, if concealed. Tomato, Cucumber and Onion Salad. —Prepare tomato cups. Fill with chopped cucumber and onion, using three parts cucumber to one of onion. A bit of celery improves the combination. Mix with salad dressing. Brush the inside of the drained tomato cup with salad dressing and fill with the mixture. Serve very cold on lettuce. Candies may be prepared in the same way, using just enough moisture to mix. Roll in coconut, dip in melted chocolate, inclose a nut or cherry, or dip in thin orange icing for bon bons. There is no limit to the changes one may use with powdered sugar as a base. During MAY and JUNE we will make a SPECIAL LOW PRICE On all work in our line. Furnaces Installed, Cleaned, Repaired.

Like Knitted Bathing Suits THE cool charm of the all-white costume for summer wear occupies so solid a place in the affections of womankind that it is doubtful if its vogue will ever be successfully challenged by colors, no matter how attractive they may be. In sports things color has made rapid advances in recent seasons, but even in this field white linen or white wool still occupies first place, and for dress wear the mode "Mother, may I go out to swim? Yes, my child, but don't go near the water." This may or may not have been a parent's philosophy in ye olden time, but at any rate we are all familiar with the quotation and it contrasts the sentiment of the modern mother whose sollicitude trends to providing for the child the best the world offers in the way of equipment which shall serve as an in ... VOL. 11 NO. 10 JAN. 1920 THE COOL LOOKING SLIP-OVER FROCK has produced nothing of greater charm and utility than the all-white outfit. White crepe is used in making the delightfully cool-looking slip-over frock pictured above. This combines the plaited skirt and plain waist that have been featured in current fashions and has the characteristic straight lines of the mode. The round neck and short kimono sleeves are finished with a deep ruffle of the same material. Just below the pocket is a little embroidered monogram in bright colors. This is a little flair of fashion that has caught on tremendously. A great number of the all-white outfits recently brought out are featuring white linen in tailored effects. All sorts of knitted materials are 1930 SUNDAY grade all wool, so as to insure its being non-chilling, non-clinging and should be processed so as to render it non-shrinkable. Then too, for the protection of the tender skin, long skirt and trunks are desirable for the younger girl such as are featured in the handsome swimming suit illu- KNITTED BATHING SUIT shown and in some instances these have an applique design in white or black braid. In linen, one very smart model has a high standing collar and a row of huge linen buttons down one side of the frock. The lighter qualities of linen are being extensively used in children's frocks. --- "Mother, may I go out to swim? Yes, my child, but don't go near the water." This may or may not have been a parent's philosophy in ye olden time, but at any rate we are all familiar with the quotation and it contrasts the sentiment of the modern mother whose solicitude trends to providing for the child the best the world offers in the way of equipment which shall serve as an in- centive and add to the comfort, joy and health-giving qualities derived from water sports, sea bathing and beach recreation. One of the first objects of careful selection by a doting mother for her growing girl is the bathing suit. Attractive appearance is not its only consideration, but it must measure up to standard in the more practical qualities as well. The manufacture of the knitted bathing suit has especially been brought to a fine point. In purchasing a knitted bathing suit (and most everyone prefers the knitted kind) there are certain features which distinguish it from the ordinary garment. For instance, according to the standard of par excellence a quality bathing suit must be knitted of high grade all wool, so as to insure its being non-chilling, non-clinging and it should be processed so as to render it non-shrinkable. Then too, for the protection of the tender skin, long skirt and trunks are desirable for the younger girl such as are featured in the handsome swimming suit illustrated herewith. Note that in this girl's perfect fitting bathing suit the neck is purposely designed rather high and additional comfort is promised in the winged armholes.
