SUBSCRIBE FOR THE ONLY RELIABLE PEOPLE'S PAPER IN COLORADO "THE COLORADO STATESMAN" THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY COLORADOANS AT THE GREAT N. A. A. C. P. CONFERENCE VOL. XXIX. COLORADOANS AT A. C. P. CON Views and Impression City M (By Mrs. M. L. Elliston) MY impression of the fourteenth annual conference of the N. A. A. C. P. recently held at Kansas City was that it was a great big body of earnest men and women gathered to honestly point out a way for our betterment of our national status. I was very much impressed at the mass meeting on Sunday afternoon, Sept. 2, at Convention hall, when Mr. James Weldon Johnson, the national secretary, spoke to 10,000 people with all of his force and eloquence. My heart was made to rejoice when Mr. Johnson said: "We are here to serve notice that this is a fight to a finish for the rights guaranteed us as American citizens by the constitution." I feel there should be no sacrifice too great for us to make in order to aid in carrying on this righteous fight. (By J. H. P. Westbrook, M.D.) The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is the one great dynamic force operating today for a just solution of the race problem. The white South, blinded as it, is with race prejudice, and the white North ignorant as it is of the actual facts, are being awakened by this association composed of intelligent and sympathetic people of both races, to a realization that if this great government of ours is to endure, all people composing its citizenship must have equal and exact JUSTICE before the law. All of its citizens, regardless of color or creed, must have the right of franchise, the right to a trial by a jury of their peers; the right of religious freedom, and the privileges of public accommodations that go with such rights. The exodus of our people from the South is another development in the fight for full freedom which will give the association additional advantage in the work it has set out to do. The North will realize as never before the actual problem that confronts this government. The South will feel keenly the loss of the mainstay of its industrial and agricultural activities. With these conditions ACUTE, we can not but believe that justice and fair play will make the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the constitution all that was intended when they were written into this greatest of human documents. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is the agency through which facts and figures are being gotten into the homes, hearts and souls of the people of this "Land of the Free," and I am optimistic enough to believe that with determination, hard work and a persistency that never lets go, this association will go down in history as one of the greatest agencies helping to make this Republic the ideal of nations. (By Chas. A. Burton) I have been asked what impressed me most at the 14th annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colorado People at Kansas City, Kan., Aug. 29 to Sept. 4. It would be impossible for me to ment'on all the things that impressed me, so will mention a few. The welcome State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House RELIABLE PEOPLE RADO THE JOURNAL A. nsas addresses by the mayor and city officials of Kansas City, Kan., were excellent as were the responses by the officers of the N. A. A. C. P. This organization is a grand one, but it will require much work to accomplish the things we are striving for. It must be put forward by strong men and women who will talk and show why we should make this the first of all organizations for it means law and order as well as justice and equality of opportunity. Mr. Fred Smith of San Jose, Calif., reported that of 200 members of the San Jose branch, 115 were white. This tells a simple story well worthy of example for any city. The wonderfully inspiring address of Congressman Dyer on Friday night and the address of Mr. A. B. Spingam to the members of the 24th Infantry, in which he said the association would never cease to work for their liberation until it was an accomplished fact or until all were dead, leads me to conclude that "God works in a mysterious way His wonders to perform."

For men, women, faces, there is a sweet- the re- lenited to National impossible life of my I regarded it as a great privilege to be a delegate to the 14th annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, held at Kansas City, Kan., recently. That which impressed me most was the visit to the federal prison at Leavenworth on Saturday, Sept. 1. The trolley excursion carried 558 men and women, all of whom were guests of the members of the 24th U. S. Infantry, held as military prisoners. As we entered the beautiful lawn, guards were stationed on each side of the walk, but were very courteous in their treatment of us. I was very much impressed with the warden, who in a few well chosen words told of the good qualities of the imprisoned soldiers and how they protected the officials during one or two riots. As we marched into the great walls of the prison and entered the chapel, sweet strains of music from a band of forty-five pieces greeted us. The 24th Infantry boys arose as one man. For the most part they were young men, each with his own sad story to tell. As I recall their sad, solemn faces, realizing that somewhere there is a saddened mother, or wife, or sweet-heart, or sister, praying for the release of these boys, I am determined to work as never before for the National Association that is doing all possible to give liberty and justice to all of my race. The inspirational value of the great conference of the N. A. A. C. P., held at Kansas City, Aug. 29 to Sept. 4, cannot be adequately told by tongue or pen. It was a veritable baptism where the font of hope and faith flowed in copious measure and where the revivified soul sought momentary release from its human moorings to more nearly approach the plans of Divinity. Truly God's handiwork was manifestly within these conference halls. Were I called upon to say what impressed me, I would pass by the crowded Dyer meeting with all of its marked enthusiasm and earnestness, likewise would I pass by the memorable visit with the members of the 24th Infantry at the federal prison in Leavenworth, with its deep pathos and illimitable appeals on to the new policy of the association to stress and amplify the work of college chapters and juvenile branches. Here ablides the future security of the association and even of the race itself by an early implanting of its principles within the hearts and minds of the youth of our land. Here ablides perpetuity and strength, for the mission of the association is but fairly begun and must be carried on by faithful men and women, undismayed by temporary defeat and unsullied by oppression. Rights are never given, rights are won. --- (By Geo. W. Gross) UNITED STATES SENATOR PHILIP BUILDER Generous Gift of $5,000.00 for Erection Given by Rocky Mountain Hon. Lawrence C.

UNITED STATES SENATOR PHIPPS AIDS COLORED Y. M. C. A. BUILDING FUND Generous Gift of $5,000.00 for Erection of New Home and Similar Amount Given by Rocky Mountain Relief Association Hon. Lawrence C. Phipps, Colorado's Senior United States Senator has again demonstrated his interest in the welfare and progress of the Race and a willingness to help any worthy cause, by a substantial contribution of $5,000.00 toward the building fund of the new Colored M. C. A. to be erected at 28th and Glenarm streets. Coming as it does at this time, when our hearts and hopes are so signally centered upon the possible realization of a dream of years, i. e., a suitably equipped and adequate Y. M. C. A. home, a place of pride and honor for the race, a place of refinement and Christian influence, the gift of the large hearted Senator becomes far more than a benefaction. Simultaneously with the announcement of the above gift, comes word that Senator Phipps also made a contribution of $5,000.00 to the Rocky Mountain Relief Association, an organization having for its object the purchase and erection of a sanitarium for Negro tubercular patients. This organization, which has many of our leading Race men and women at the head, has been working quietly for many months. With the splendid gift of the Senator as an incentive, it is now certain that another much needed institution will soon be ours. These gifts truly place Mr. Phipps among the country's big men who are willing to aid the efforts of a struggling group and who know men and women by worth only. He has long been a generous contributor to the N. A. A. C. P. and has consistently supported its principles and the things for which it stands. GIRL LAWYER DEFENDS NEGRO Hackensack, N. J., Sept. 28.—Anna B. Hogan, youthful and attractive, come up from Jersey City to the Hackensack court house this morning to appear as counsel for Ezal Robertson, a Negro, who was arraigned before Supreme Court Justice C. W. Parker, on a charge of murder. Robertson shot John Barnes in a Little Ferry brickyard during a fight over a game of cfaps. Miss Hogan offered a plea of not guilty for her client, and Oct. 3 was the date set for the trial. MADDEN IMPROVES Washington, Sept. 28.—Congressman Martin B. Madden, who was taken with illness on the way to his office in the Capitol last week, continues to improve. His son-in-law, Assistant Postmaster-General Henderson, announces that Mr. Madden is greatly moved by the numerous telegrams and letters from his colored friends throughout the country inquiring about his condition and expressing wishes for his recovery. Mr. Madden is 68 years of age and the active life he is living as a leader in Congress has been a severe tax upon his vitality. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1923 Dr. Leroy Bundy Attempts Suicide Cleveland, Ohio, Sept. 20.—Dr. Levy R. Bundy, prominent dentist of this city, who gained nation-wide attention because of his connection with the East St. Louis riot, attempted suicide by slashing his throat with a razor while in his office. He was discovered, however, before loss of blood rendered his case hopeless and rushed to the hospital for medical attention. Efforts were made to keep the report from gaining publicity, but a reporter in his rounds of the local police station noted the name of the dentist on the record book and made an investigation. Attempts to reach his home over the telephone were unavailing. Later in the day, however, the Rev. Mr. Bundy, aged father of the dentist, confirmed the report and stated that physicians were certain his recovery. He has been removed to his home. Temporary insanity is given as possible cause for his action. Two Drivers Held for Death of "Aunt Jemima" Colored Doctor and Truck Driver Held for Killing Aged Woman Chicago, Sept. 20.—Two drivers involved in an accident which caused the death of Mrs. Nancy Green, 89 years old, the aged "Aunt Jemtma" of pancake fame, were ordered held to the grand jury yesterday on charges of manslaughter. The drivers, Burke Adams, a driver for the Davies Laundry Company, and Dr. Harry S. Seymour, 4730 Prairie avenue. Witnesses at the inquest testified that Adams' truck, leaving an alley on Forty-sixth street, near Prairie avenue, collided with Seymour's automobile, which bounded up on the sidewalk, where the woman was walking, struck her and crashed into a building. The jury decided the drivers were equally responsible. America Ridiculed by Russian Papers for Barbaric Lynchings (N A A C P Press Service) (N. A. A. C. P. Press Service) In an interesting article on how the Russian people regard America which appers in The New Republic of Sept. 19, Arthur Ruhl, famous author and newspaper correspondent, tells of the effect upon the Russian people of news regarding lynchings and mob loicence in the United States. Mr. Ruhl is now in Russia and in his article in The New Republic, headed, "What the Russians Think of Us," has this to say: "... A Moscow comic paper last summer published on its front page a cartoon consisting of two pictures in parallel columns. One, representing a group-of African cannibals seated around a fire waiting for t helmeted white man to be roasted, was labelled 'In Barbarous Africa.' The other, representing a Negro burning at the stake, surrounded by a mob of gleeful whites, was labelled 'In Cultured America.' This aspect of our civilization, which puzzles nearly all Europeans, is an easy target for satire and every once in so often comes a cartoon of this sort or an editorial on 'The Brute With a Veneer of Civilization.' Kansas Normal Teacher Refuses to Apologize Kansas Normal Teacher Refuses to Apologize Emporia, Kan., Sept. 20.—Charging that Prof. E. R. Barrett, head of the English department of the Emporia Normal, threw her out of a class room and onto a cement floor, Elgethia Alsbrook, a Negro student, today appeared before the county attorney demanding that Barrett be prosecuted unless he apologizes to her. The teacher late today indicate no apology would be made. The girl alleges the professor seized her as she entered the room and then shoved her through the doorway, causing her to fall on a hall floor, injuring her knees. Professor Barrett did not deny shoving her out of the room but says he did so after he had ordered her out eight times and each time she had refused to budge. Then he pushed her through the doorway and she stumbled and fell. When Miss Alsbrook returned to Professor Barrett later in the day he old her he was sorry he has caused her to be injured but was not sorry he had pushed her out of the room. A group of Negroes accompanied the girl to the county attorney's office. NO. 50. Educational Facilities in South Africa (Lincoln Service) (Cape Town, South Africh, Sept. 28. -In a report of Dr. Viljoen, superintendent of education for Cape Province, he emphasized the difficulties encountered by his department in securing funds and teachers. There are at present in Cape Province, under the department of education, 2,524 schools for European pupils, 426 schools for colored pupils, of which 409 are under church mission control, and 1,602 native schools. There are a certain number of European industrial schools in Cape Province, which are one of the costliest branches of education. As these schools are under control of the Union government as well as the Provincial administration, there has been difficulty in organizing them on a uniform basis. With regard to non-European education, Dr. Viljoen says there is an even greater need of reform and progress than is the case with European schools. There are 48,309 colored pupils under the department, and 117,776 native pupils. The colored schools in Cape Town are overcrowded, so that in one school the plan is being tried of teaching in "shifts" of three hours each. Negro Migration Reflects in Market (Lincoln Service) New York, Sept. 28.—Migration is being reflected in the trading here as indicated by a remarkable rise in cotton yarn prices which show marked advances. Raw cotton quotations are rising momentarily and constantly. It is to be doubted if the spinners will be able to make their December deliveries unless relief is found in other markets. The upward movement of prices in the raw product is traced to boll-weevil and the migration of colored labor from the cotton plantations. Italy to Free Her African Slaves Geneva, Sept. 28.—Italy has officially notified the League of Nations that she has ordered the abolition of the slavery system existing within the Italian legation in the Empire of Ethiopia (Abyssinia), which recently applied for membership in the league. She has directed the native staff of the legation, which owns slaves, henceforth to consider them as servants, not slaves, pending Italian arrangements to restore them to liberty, with compensation to their owners. Slavery as it exists in Ethiopia is expected to be discussed in connection with the Ethiopian application for admission to the league, although it is recognized that it is a domestic question. JACK DEMPSEY MUST FIGHT WILLS New York, Sept. 28.—Despite the fact that Harry Will's injunction proceedings to restrain the Dempsey-Firpo fight have failed, the impression prevails here that Dempsey, having whipped Firpo, will be forced to defend his title against Harry Willis. FOREIGN The Japanese relief fund has received a contribution of $553.50 from the lepers of the colony at Molokai Island. Raoul Madero, a brother of the late Francisco Madero, revolutionary president of Mexico, is the latest person to announce his candidacy for the presidency of the republic in the forthcoming elections. Chancellor Stresemann, in public statement, announced government's change of policy in the German Ruhr region. Passive resistance is ordered ended and workers are urged to return to work. The policy is effective immediately and unconditionally. Bulgarian government forces have lost 700 dead and more than 4,400 wounded in attacks against the agrarian insurrectionists, according to dispatches from Salonikli received in Athens. Messages from Philippoli said the government forces were losing ground over the whole of southern and northeastern Bulgaria. Chancellor Stresemann's most convincing argument throughout his extended conversations proved to be the official admission that passive resistance had been costing Germany eight quadrillion marks weekly towards the end. The mention of this promptly mellowed the wavering doubters, but the reactionaries preferred to make an issue of the nation's "honor and dignity." Since the German government formally announced its inability further to finance the passive resistance in the Ruhr and Rhineland there has been a marked cooling of the ardor of the registers and one of the immediate effects of the withdrawal of official credits to the industrialists, employers and labor organizations is reflected in the growing inclination by many workers to return to their former posts. The international balloon race for the Gordon Bennett cup, held at Brussels, developed into an international disaster. Five men lost their lives, one is believed to be fatally injured, and no fewer than six balloons were destroyed or badly damaged. Lieutenants Olmsted and Shoptaw of the United States army S-6 are among those who perished, but the United State navy A-6699 made a safe landing at Putten, Holland. Order has been restored in a majority of the disturbed districts of Bulgaria, says a semi-official statement issued in Sofia. The only important center where the Communists have not been subdued is Ferdinadnovo, but repressive measures are proceeding normally. The statement adds that several chiefs of Communist bands have committed suicide and others have been killed by their followers. It states that large numbers of communists who surrendered carried rifles of a Russian pattern. GENERAL Minneapolis is the driest city of its size in the United States, according to S. B. Quail, federal prohibition director for the state of Minnesota. The 1923 world series will open Wednesday, Oct. 10, at the Yankee stadium in New York City, home of the three times American League champions and greatest baseball park in the country. Prosperity in the larger cities of the United States, but economic depression in the rural districts, was emphasized by members of the American Bankers' Association in annual convention at Atlantic City. Demands that Congress enact legislation making it still easier to obtain credit required by the industry were contained in resolutions adopted by the Iowa Farmers' Union in annual convention in Des Moines, Iowa. Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion fighter, en route from New York to Salt Lake City to see his folks, told a reporter for the Omaha World-Herald that the world's championship had thus far netted him more than $2,000,-000. One million German marks are worth seven-tenths of one cent as currency in New York, but one million of the old one mark notes sold as waste-paper would bring about $4. Ford's Muscle Shoals proposition received a severe upset when the War Department announced the sale of Gorgas steam plant to Alabama Power Company for $3,500. The emergency committee of the American Red Cross paused long enough in its ministration of Japanese earthquake relief to give attention to a catastrophe nearer home. A preliminary allotment of $10,000 was made from the regular Red Cross disaster fund to the Red Cross organization at Berkeley, Calif., for relief work as the result of the fire there. The state of Illinois will not hang a woman for murder on Columbus day—Oct. 12—as it had planned to do over vigorous protest from many sources. Mrs. Sabelle Nittl Crudelle, who murdered her first husband, has been granted a stay of execution until February, when the Supreme Court will review her case. Her present husband, Peter Crudelle, also sentenced to die, was granted a similar stay. Relinbursement of employees of the Erie Railroad Company represented by the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks to the extent that they suffered a wage loss during January, 1921, when a wage reduction was put into effect, was ordered in Chicago by the United States Railroad Labor Board. A story of an eleven-day battle against towering seas lashed by a Behring sea gale, was told by members of the United States geological survey party from Point Barrow who arrived at Teller, Alaska, on the thirteen-ton schooner Teddy Bear. NEWS TO DATE IN PARAGRAPHS CAUGHT FROM THE NETWORK OF WIRES ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD DURING THE PAST WEEK DURING THE PAST WEEK RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS CONDENSED FOR BUSY PEOPLE WESTERN The trial of John Browning, Jr., and his cousin, Marriner Browning, charged with first degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting at Salt Lake City last April of John Ballantyne, has been put over until Oct. 25. Five hundred thousand dwellings are to be rebuilt in Japan and this will require 8,000,000,000 feet of lumber, according to estimates received by the West Coast Lumbermen's Association, from the United States Department of Commerce. That it was an error in judgment and not an act of Providence that hurled seven ships to destruction and twenty-three men to their death on the rocks off Honda, Calif, Sept. 8, was admitted by Captain Hunter of the Delphy shortly before he concluded his testimony before the naval court of inquiry at San Diego, which is investigating the disaster. One workman was seriously injured and the main building of the Mason By-Products Company at Sausalito, Calif., was destroyed by fire which followed a terrific explosion. Loss was estimated at $100,000. A four-hour fight was waged to control the flames and the firefighters were endangered by the presence of a large quantity of alcohol in the plant. Two warehouses in which alcohol was stored were saved. Phillip C. Valentine, son of John J. Valentine, former president of the Wells-Fargo Express Company, was granted a parole from the California state prison at San Quentin by the board of prison directors. Valentine had served one year of a sentence of from one to three years on a charge of driving an automobile while intoxicated. His arrest followed an accident in which Miss Mariam Donald of San Joose was run down and seriously injured. As a measure to solve the Colorado river problem centering around the refusal of the Arizona Legislature to ratify the seven-state Santa Fe contract, Dwight B. Heard of Phoenix, publisher of the Arizona Republican, announced a few days ago that he had offered a "suggestive plan of action in the development of the water and power resources of the lower basin of the Colorado river." Under the plan advanced, Arizona and Nevada, in co-operation with the federal government, in which interested municipalities and irrigation districts might participate, would be represented in a tentative tri-state agreement for the allocation of water rights and distribution of power resources in their territory. WASHINGTON Conspiracy charges in the sale of German dye patents to the Chemical Foundation, Inc., were made in a brief filed by the Department of Justice in the Federal Court at Wilmington, Del., in the government's suit to set aside the sale of the patents. Violation of the law providing for custody of enemy alien property was charged in the brief and former Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer, Francis P. Carvan, former alien property custodian and others were criticized severely. The American Red Cross has authorized the additional purchase of approximately $3,000,000 worth of clothing and other necessities for Japanese earthquake victims. Ambassador Woods at Tokio requested the action, stating more than 2,000,000 persons in four provinces were destitute and homeless. President Coolidge and his advisers still are giving energetic study to the agricultural situation. Secretary Wallace, upon whom has developed the task of assembling data on the subject, will not have his report ready for several days, and consequently the cabinet has made no effort to reach a conclusion. Eleven-year-old Charlie Williams of Grays Sliding, Colo., has been written a personal letter of thanks by Secretary Wallace of the Department of Agriculture for his service to the government in detecting a fire in the Cochetopa forest and securing the aid of a railway section crew in putting it out. Supervisor Agee of the forest service told the department in a report that Charlie was as thorough a fire fighter as he had ever met outside the service. Reduction of freight rates on wheat and flour destined for export and increase of the present tariff on wheat were considered by President Coolidge and his cabinet as possible remedies for the ills of the wheat farmers of the Northwest. The state of Arizona is unalterably opposed to ratification of the Colorado river pact in its present form, but is willing to assist in drawing up a new agreement, the federal power commission was informed by a committee headed by Gov.

His efforts met with some success, for the moment, but as he picked up a huge rattler and held it at arm's length, there was a hiss and flash, and blood trickled from several tiny points on his bared arm. Several awe-stricken women spectators screamed as the brave youth let go and backed away from the pile of colled monsters. He half fell and was carried from the cage to the Fort Morgan hospital where he died a few days later. Denver. — Damages amounting to $158,200 are sought by W. R. Stubbs, J. E.

It dropped to the basement, turning over in the plungs, and plinned the woman beneath it. Denver.—Sixteen counties in the state will be visited by Secretary of State Carl S.

Colorado Springs.—Complete freedom for women through the fight being waged by militant suffragists was predicted by Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont, president of the National Woman's party in a stirring address in the last session of the convention of the Colorado Women's party here.

PRISON DOORS MAX OPEN FOR MEN OF THE TWENTY-FOURTH DO YOUR DUTY Knowledge dwells in heads replete With thoughts of other men, Wisdom in minds attentive to their own. WE HAVE been asked again and again by many of our faithful subscribers as well as others of the public why we do not publish a daily paper, a tri-weekly or something more than a weekly issue, and after giving their inquiry the most careful consideration, we have come to the conclusion that the answer can be summed up in these few words—the lack of knowledge of the public's duty and obligation to the press, which is not only an invaluable medium of information among the peoples of this vast universe, but also an essential desideratum to their very existence. If one would respond or accept an invitation to go with the newspaper man through the various ramifications of the press and its publications, it would be readily discovered that the work attached or the duty devolved on him to procure and insure good, healthy, readable, intelligent and sound matter for the public is not quite as easy as the mere reading of the published accounts of what is transpiring the country over, yea, the very world at large; but it is the result of arduous toil, sleepless nights, continuous travel in mental and physical realms, which at times would almost tempt one to give up, were not the bull-dog tenacity present at every stage of action forbidding this wonderful agent—this master worker, this influence which materially shapes the destinies of nations by its resolution to interchange ideas with thoughts of others—never to falter, never to give up, but continue in its good work until the intellectual mind is aroused and the dormant faculties awakened to their duty, their responsibility and obligation to an institution which is unlimited in its resources and all-powerful in its magnitude. For these many reasons this paper that is being read in all parts of the world, from the icy eskimo region to the antipodes, is placing emphasis on the necessity of the people of our race taking a greater part in the press and meeting their obligations financially and otherwise, giving their unstinted support to a cause, the harvest of which will be superbundant and enjoyed by all. The old school days' topic—"Which is mightier, the pen or the sword?"—has always echoed and re-echoed in our growth, and if we can remember the grand array of scholarly arguments that used to be brought out, then giving the PEN the pre-eminence can be still entertained, and therefore no excuse should be offered for the non-fulfillment of an obligation or a dereliction of duty. On behalf of the press, therefore, THE COLORADO STATESMAN in its message strongly reminds the members of the race that upon themselves depends their destiny, and the stronger the foundations of the press in this or any other country we inhabit the more gigantic will be the literary and educational superstructures which will form the great bulwark that will withstand any assault against our present and future progress. Rouse, then, from your lethargy and DO YOUR WHOLE DUTY TODAY. AFRICAN PRINCE ARRESTED Portland, Ore., Sept. 21.—Prince Challaughldzilegese, who has been in Portland for a month or more, and who lectured both here and in Salem to both races, was arrested Monday by federal officers and lodged in the county jail, charged with having gained admission into this country fraudulently.

Sentiment is strongly against it, and if they kept it up they couldn't get labor for their fields."

These Hard to Find. Habenarias are a genus of orchid, of which about eighteen species are natives of the eastern states, says Nature Magazine. They are partial to low, moist ground, so that the seeker must be willing to risk a wet-footed search of our most forbidding bogs and swamps. The blossoms are so exquisitely dainty that the finding of them is well worth all the trouble and discomfort. Peculiar Combinations. An English woman recently wrote to a newspaper saying that she was born A. Mann (Allice Mann). She married a Mr. Husband, and so became A. Husband. He died and she married again, this time a Mr. Malden. Becoming a widow for a second time, she concludes that, though born A. Mann, she will die A. Malden. Joy in Service to Others. When a man goes upwards he can lead a score of others with him, if he will. There's no joy like that which comes from a useful life—the perpetual effort not only to make the most of ourselves but to help others as we go. Leading others is service to others.—Grit.

These dis- tinguished visitors spent _ several weeks in the city as the guest of Miss Auverne Stuart, of the American Woodmen force, and their sister, as well. Master Leonard Littlejohn ac- companied Mrs. Littlejpohn on her trip here. A very splendid vacation was spent by them here in Denver. These ladies are graduates of Alcorn College —the state college of the state of Mis- sissippi. ‘They were surprised to find so many Alcornites in Denver; and the Alcornites spared neither time nor means that they might enjoy them- selyes while here—and verily they did!

NOTES Another thrill was adminstered last Monday morning by the announcement that our senior U. S, Senator, Lawr- ence ©. Phipps, had contributed $5,000 towards our New Building Fund. The feeling was somewhat akin to that which we felt in March when we learned that Mr. ©. A, Johnson had given the first $5,000 towards the fund, and whose gift furnished inspira- tion for everything that has followed. By this act our building fund received a great boost, and by so much has helped on towards the $75,000 which is to be the cost of the new building. On behalf of the association of the colored citizens in general our committee of management has sent a letter to Sena- tor Phipps thanking him for his splen- did gift. ‘Things are now rapidly shaping for the beginning of work. Contract will soon be let for the excavation and af- ter that other things will follow in rapid succession. In the meanwhile this Is a good time for those who have not paid their subscription to do so, in order that full insentive and inspir- ation may be given to the work. A course for the training of boy leaders has been organized and will meet every Thursday evening at 7:30 o'clock. The course consists of eleven lectures, all dealing in a vital way with the boy life. Mr. Deal of the. Central Association, Secretary Boys’ Work, will conduct the course. It is hoped that a class of at least one dozen men and young men may regis- ter for the coming season. Sunday afternoon meetings will be- gin shortly. A committee is mapping ‘out the programs for the season when the first meeting will be held abou the second Sunday in October.

THE INVISIBLE FURNACE MAN ‘This, the latest of the many benefi- cial things offered by the Denver Gas and Electric Light Company to the pub- lie, Is creating quite a sensation among home owners, adding another modern convenience that will make the home a healthier, happier and more cheer- ful place in which to live. ‘As its name implies, “ the invisible furnace man” is another progressive step displacing the care and trouble incident to house heating by the old method of solid fuel furnaces, and its installation in the home will be the means of conquering all disagreeable features attendant with proper tem- perature in winter time. ‘This new and wonderful agent is a gas burner In a furnace or hot water plant, so regu lated and controlled that it automatic- ally keeps the house at the tempers- ture you desire, and changes to meet the varying requirements of heat dur- ing the day or night. It is very easily operated and saves the annoyance of coal dust, soot, ete. Among the many advantages to be obtained from “the invisible furnace man” are clean liv- ing quarters, allowing you the enjoy- ment of every comfort, the regulation of the heat instantly to suit the changeable climate of the West, an abundant heat supply at all times, and the great consolation that you pay for your fuel after you use it In easy monthly payments. Many Denver homes have solved the heating prob- lem by “the invisible furnace man,” ‘and because the tendency of the times is toward more comfort and conven- ience in the home it can be readily seen by those who appreciate modern methods and improvements that this most desired element shall have filled ‘a long felt want. With the persistent efforts of Mr. George W. Bixler, the genial and popular advertising agent of the Denver Gas and Electric Light Co., who never hesitates in giving first hand information to the public ‘on matters pertaining to their welfare, as well as his keen business ability to use reliable advertising mediums whicti will reach all the people, there is every reason to hope for a large number of homes in our city becoming the bene- fictaries of this improved system of heating and thereby becoming a mem- ber of the large family of The Invis- ible Furnace Man. | DEATH NOTICE BY THE PEOPLE'S MORTUARY CURTIS—Mr, Edward J., the be- loved husband of Mrs. Mabel Curtis, departed this life Thursday morning, Sept. 27th, at his late residence, 2710 Lafayette street.

ILENT CAL"- THE MAN Illuminating Side-Lights on the Character of Our Thirtieth President Silent Call! I'm Cal, all right, but I'm not silent by a long hot—President Calvin Coolidge. BY JOHN DICKINSON SHERMAN ALVIN COOLIDGE, thirtieth president of the United States, entered the White House to face grave and diverse problems, both national and international. There are factions in the President's political party; "leadership has been unhoused and ambitious malcontents are struggling for the stirrup." The Sixty-eighth congress, which meets in December, will contain many new and untried men of radical views. C What wonder then that all the world is interested in knowing all about the man elevated by the working of fate into the most important position on earth—as the presidency of the United States unquestionably is. Calvin Coolidge emerges from the comparative obscurity of the vice presidency into a fiercely limelight than ever beat upon any throne. His character and his personal and public record are under the X-ray. Thousands of keen and analytical minds are weighing his every recorded word in the hope of guessing his possible and probable action in public issues at home and abroad. This article is intended to be informative and nothing else. There is no purpose to try to guess the political policies of Calvin Coolidge. The writer holds no brief for or against Calvin Coolidge either as a man or as a possible candidate for the presidency in 1924 or for or against the President's political party. It is prepared solely with the view of throwing light upon the personality of Calvin Coolidge. As to the photographs: No. 1 is Calvin Coolidge's latest "close-up." No. 2 shows him enjoying his vacation on the ancestral farm, where he took the oath of president. "Hard work never worried Cal," says his father. No. 3 is a snapshot showing the President taking an early morning hike in Washington for exercise. No. 4 shows a family group at the farm: Left to right, John C. Coolidge, the father; Mrs. Calvin Coolidge; Calvin Coolidge; Calvin Coolidge, Jr., the younger son. No. 5 is Calvin Coolidge in his senior year, class of '95, at Amherst. He was graduated B. A. cum laude and won an essay competition open to students of all colleges. No. 6 shows the President and Mrs. Coolidge at evening looking at the hollyhocks in the farm garden of old-fashioned flowers. One thing that makes the American people eager for every revelation concerning the life and career and personality of Calvin Coolidge is the fact that he is a new type of man in the White House to the present generation of Americans—a New Englander of native stock. It is sixty-six years since New England has had a man in the White House and almost one hundred years since a citizen of Massachusetts has held the office of president. Franklin Pierce of New Hampshire was president, 1853-1857. John Quincy Adams, son of John Adams, the second president, was president 1825-1829. Calvin Coolidge is by lineage, birth and upbringing a New Englander of New Englanders—a simon-pure Vermont Yankee. And he's proud of it. He sold in 1920 to a large gathering of his neighbors: Vermont is my birthplace. Here one gets close to nature; in the mountains, in the brooks, the waters of which hurry to the sea; in the lakes, shining like silver in their green setting; in the fields, tilled not by machinery, but by the brain and hand of man. My foes are happy and contented. They belong to themselves, live within their income, and fear no man. New England, of course, believes implicitly in the New England type. It also halls the President as a fine sample of the type. The Boston Post, a democratic newspaper, speaks for New England when it says: Calvin Coolidge cannot fall. He embodies not alone all the hopes of New England, but her very life blood. He is the inheritor of all the splendor and all the magnificence of service that New England has given to America. So New England elects to stand or fall with Calvin Coolidge as a cautious, discreet, thrifty, tight-mouthed, God-fearing, efficient Down-East Yankee. The Coolidges certainly go back to the beginning of things in New England. The first American Coolidge came over about 1630 in the first flight of the Puritans and settled in Watertown, Mass. In 1780, John Coolidge, the President's great-great-grandfather, after service in the Revolution, moved to Plymouth, Vt. He hired out occasionally to his neighbors—and he left a farm to each of his five children! Each succeeding generation of these Plymouth Yankee farmers seems to have run true to type. Calvin Coolidge's grandfather was justice of the peace, constable, selectman and town agent and attended all the political state and county conventions. John Calvin Coolidge, the President's father, hale and hearty at seventy-eight—the President says he has been the most formative influence in his life—owns the farm where his great-grandfather settled. He was tax collector and constable for thirty-eight years. He was justice of the pence. He served five sessions in the legislature, two in the senate. He kept store, ran the shop when the blacksmith left town, could pull a tooth, was road commissioner, settled estates, taught in the Sunday school and usually looks after the seating of the people at funerals. The President's great-grandfather was without schooling; his grandfather went to the district school; his father went to the academy at Ludlow; the President himself is a lawyer and a college graduate. "Coolidge luck" has become proverbal. He started out by being born on the Fourth of July. He has been in public office almost continuously since 1899. He has never met defeat at the polls. He won a wife who is a genuine helpmeet. He has two fine sons. A police strike in 1919 made him famous over night. There are ambitious politicians who would give millions for the popular appeal of the setting in which he took the oath of office—the parlor of the old homestead; the old-fashioned kerosene lamp; the gathered neighbors outside in the darkness; the father, a notary public, reading the constitutional oath to the son; the son, with raised hand, repeating the oath and adding "So help me God!". Several things evidently must be taken into consideration in connection with the "Coolidge luck" and the President's political career to date. Politics with Calvin Coolidge has been a profession. Here is his creed, stated publicly: Politics is not an end, but a means. It is not a product, but a process. It is the art of government. Like other values it has its counterfeits. It is the process of action in public affairs. Calvin Coolidge knows politics more thoroughly than the average man knows the multiplication table; he has learned the game from the bottom up. He has been ably tutored. His opponents say that when the occasion demands "expert chauffeuring of the steam roller" Coolidge is a good man at the wheel. He has had powerful and devoted friends back of him. And the record seems to show pretty conclusively that Coolidge has made good in every position he has held. In reading his speeches and writings one finds often the words "duty" and "service"—they bulk large in his political creed. In politics Calvin Coolidge has always been a party man—"regular". He believes in the party system. He said, when governor of Massachusetts: We have a government of parties. We must recognize party. A man ought to be loyal to those who have been loyal to him. President Coolidge, it is everywhere agreed, is taciturn and reticent. His friends say he was born tight-mouthed; those who have opposed him add that he has also cultivated it as a political asset. Here is a sample of Coolidge brevity: When he made his inaugural address as president of the state senate the second time he said just this and no more: Honorable senators—My sincerest thanks I offer you. Conserve the firm foundations of our institutions. Do your work with the spirit of a soldier in the war. Be loyal to the commonwealth and to yourselves. And be brief. Above all things—be brief. Yet Coolidge can talk when he feels like it and the occasion warrants speech. Intimates say he can pound the desk and say "D—n." They also say that when he does read the riot act his language is blistering. He has made many notable public speeches. Certainly he fooled the newspaper correspondents at Washington. Coolidge, as vice president, was singularly unobtrusive. Edward G. Lowry in his book, "Washington Close-Ups," described him as "a politician who does not, who will not, who seemingly cannot talk." And this came to be the view generally accepted by the newspaper correspondents at the capital. Practically the first official act of the President upon his arrival in Washington was to receive the newspaper men—132 men and 5 women. He subtly gave the impression that he was anxious to establish personal relations with them. He also showed unmistakably that he was master of the situation. He opened the interview with a short speech. Study of the President's words shows both speech and answers to be concise, clear and admirable. The result was that this body of exacting, generally cynical and frequently unappreciative newspaper people repaid him with a hearty round of applause. Coolidge, contrary to report, is not at all lacking in a sense of humor; his own brand is very dry. He is, of course, thrifty. Analysis of Coolidge's record shows that he has often been able to make men of divergent interests work together and has retained the good will of both sides. Competent observers among the Washington correspondents say that most of his many and various callers since he became President have gone away in a friendly spirit, though the man in the White House had said little and promised nothing. "Everybody's Friend" they call him, half in compliment, half in jest. Coolidge has a few intimates who insist that he is much warmer inside than his exterior indicates—and give various facts in evidence. But even these intimates, though they may call him "Cal", don't slap him on the back when they say it. Calvin Coolidge has imagination and ideals and a militant spirit of service; read his "Have Faith in Massachusetts" if you doubt. His Puritan (not Pilgrim) forefathers "fell first upon their knees and then upon the aborigines." Spirituality and practicality both bulk large in the character of the men who settled New England and in that strange blend which has produced the Down-East Yankee who is thirtieth President of the United States of America.

There is something inexplicably consoling about being able to determine beyond dispute, and before the weather man can corroborate us, that the temperature is actually 95 degrees on the front porch, or that the mercury has reached the freezing point and appears to be going still lower. It is such a simple matter to hang up a reliable thermometer out of doors—in the shade, of course—and to guide one's course of action by reading it. Whether one wants to know merely that Johnny may leave off his winter flannels or that the young tomato plants are threatened by frost and must be covered, the thermometer makes a real contribution to one's peace of mind. culture recommends that reading the thermometer hung on the wall, but unable of the room, about five from the floor, perhaps a lier. In a sick room it hang the thermometer at the patient's head. The presence of a bath necessitates at least two thermometers. For baby's safe practice for the new temperature of the water bow. Adult elbows vary tiveness to heat, but the baby can easily be hurt too hot. Using a bath which is made with a w In connection with many farm processes, too, there are uses for thermometers of various types. In the dairy, for example, the temperature of the milk must not be left to guesswork either, when storing or pasteurizing it, nor can butter be properly made by chanting "butter come, butter come" instead of testing the temperature of the cream before churning. The incubator must be kept at a constant correctly determined temperature. The place where vegetables or canned goods are stored should not become warmer than 50 degrees Fahrenheit, nor lower than 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Both cellar and refrigerator must be watched by means of a thermometer to make sure that perishable food kept in them will not spoil. A thermometer can be used to find out the temperature of the soil before planting, and many orchardists have to watch for changes of a few degrees in the temperature of the air to know when to start fires to prevent damage to their fruit by spring frosts. For sick farm animals a special clinical thermometer is used just as with human patients. Different Kinda Needed. For real efficiency inside the house several different kinds of thermometers are needed. The ordinary room thermometer is similar to the standard out-of-doors type, and is invaluable as a fuel saver. It gives warning that a room has reached a temperature of 68 degrees or 70 degrees and that the fire, therefore, may be checked. In cases of sickness, where an unvarying temperature must be maintained, or when there is a very young baby to keep warm, a room thermometer is indispensable. The United States Department of Agri- CORN PRESERVED BY DRYING CORN PRESERVED BY DRYING Long Been Practiced in Household and Is to Certain Extent Prepared Commercially. The preservation of green corn by drying has long been practiced in the household and dried corn is, to a limited extent, prepared commercially. The ears of corn are first scaled for about five minutes, then cooled and the kernels cut from the cob. Unless the corn is very young and tender the resulting dried corn will be much more satisfactory if only the tips of the kernels are removed by the first cut and the remaining pulp scraped out with a dull knife, leaving the most of the hulls behind on the cob. Even in the case of young corn, the cutting should not be so close as to include the base of the kernel. The corn may be dried by any convenient method. Where a large quantity is being prepared it may be spread upon a table covered with muslin. Of course it must be protected from files. The corn should be well stirred from time to time until thoroughly dry. When wanted for use the dry corn should be rinsed quickly in cold water and put to soak for several hours in a small amount of water in which it is to be cooked. The cooking should be done slowly and water added as needed. Cooked dried corn may be used in any way in which canned corn is served. Dried corn has a sweet, nutty flavor, and is especially liked for making cream or corn soup or in succotash. Placing Silverware on Table. When setting a table place knives at the right of the plate, forks at the left and the soup spoon beyond the knives. Teaspoons, etc., for entrees and desserts are placed when those courses are served. culture recommends that for a correct reading the thermometer should not be hung on the wall, but nearer the middle of the room, about four or five feet from the floor, perhaps from a chandelier. In a sick room it may be well to hang the thermometer on a level with the patient's head. The presence of a baby in the house necessitates at least two other thermometers. For baby's bath it is not a safe practice for the nurse to test the temperature of the water with her elbow. Adult elbows vary in their sensitiveness to heat, but the skin of a tiny baby can easily be hurt if the water is too hot. Using a bath thermometer, which is made with a wooden frame so as to float, is a much more reliable way of testing the bath water. Every mother also needs a clinical thermometer, for children run high fevers occasionally and the doctor always wants to know the exact temperature. Useful in Cooking. In the kitchen cooking without a thermometer is mere guesswork for the inexperienced. It is more and more frequently the case that modern cookbooks give oven temperatures for baking bread or for roasting meat. Sometimes it is suggested that meat be baked with a thermometer thrust into its center, if it is desirable to have "rare roast beef." Oven thermometers must be capable of recording temperatures ranging as high as 650 degrees to 700 degrees Fahrenheit. A sirup or candy thermometer is another type that registers temperatures higher than boiling point, and that, consequently, may be used in determining when cooking sugar has reached a desired point for a canning sirup or a particular kind of confection. A thermometer should guide the operator when "boiling down" maple sugar or making boiled icings, jellies and similar foods in which sugar occurs. Custards would not be allowed to curdle if a thermometer were consulted during their preparation and their temperatures allowed to go no higher than 180 degrees Fahrenheit, nor would deep fat frying fall if the temperature of the fat were carefully watched and kept between 175 degrees and 200 degrees Fahrenheit. There is a thermometer for almost every household use, and with a little practice one learns to depend on the various kinds for different purposes. SAVE MINERALS IN CARROTS Cut in Narrow Strips and Cooker Until Tender With Butter Added They Are Delicious. Most vegetables should be cooked in a small amount of water, says the United States Department of Agriculture, because mineral salts are likely to be dissolved by the water, and thrown away with it. The following recipe for cooking carrots enables one to save all of these valuable mineral salts. Other vegetables can be similarly prepared. Wash and scrape small carrots and cut in narrow strips. Cook three cupfuls of the carrots in just enough water to cover. When carrots are tender and only a small amount of water remains, add a tablespoonful of butter. Cook slowly until almost all of the remaining water has evaporated. The carrots will have a delicious flavor cooked this way and none of the minerals will be wasted. String beans cut in halves lengthwise or parsnips cut in strips are also good served this way. Household Questions When cleaning marble, use common salt, which should be rubbed on and then rinsed off. Always keep your tea and coffee in covered containers. Otherwise they lose their strength. Always stir a newly opened bottle of milk if you would mix the cream through it. Otherwise the top cream can be removed and used for breakfast cereal.

Until we do so, and judge ourselves and it according to doubtful if we attain a great degree of efficiency.—Hazel Kewley. COLD DESSERTS There is no simple dessert that is more popular with the young than apple dumplings. They may be served hot or cold with cream. Roll out a piece of pastry or rich biscuit dough very thin, cut it into circles and in- pie dumplings. They may be served hot or cold with cream. Roll out a piece of pastry or rich biscuit dough very thin, cut it into circles and in-close in it a quartered, cored and peeled apple. If small take two. Pinch the edges together and bake in a rather slow oven until the apple is well cooked. Open the dumpling, add sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and butter and serve each rich morsel topped with a spoonful of whipped cream. Lemon Snow.—Soak two tablespoonfuls of gelatin in one-half cupful of cold water and after ten minutes add two cupfuls of boiling water, one cupful of sugar, the juice of three lemons and the grated rind of one. Stir until dissolved and chill. When cold and beginning to set beat with a whisk until frothy, then fold in three well-beaten egg whites. Heap by spoonfuls on a glass dish and sprinkle thickly with grated coconut. Chill and serve with a custard sauce. Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the two shall meet, Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat; But here is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth, When two strong man stand face to face, tho' they come from the ends of the earth. —Kiung. When drying herbs and savories for winter cut the stalk, leaving all the leaves on, put them into preserve jars leaves down and set the jars into the oven, uncovered. When dry adjust the rubbers, seal and store them away. Dried in this way celery, parsley, sage, catnip or any other herb keeps well and when preserve jars leaves down and set the jars into the oven, uncovered. When dry adjust the rubbers, seal and store them away. Dried in this way celery, parsley, sage, catnip or any other herb keeps well and when wanted may be stripped from the stalk and powdered as fine as needed. When making cookies or doughnuts using sour milk or cream mix them up the night before and set them on ice. They will roll out with less flour, will be light and keep moist much longer than by the usual method. After cooking carrots until tender put them through the ricer, season and beat as one does mashed potatoes. Even those who refuse to like carrots cannot resist them thus prepared. A dash of nutmeg and a bit of lemon juice will add variety of flavor. When serving toast to a child or an invalid place the egg nicely poached on toast well buttered and cut into cubes without disturbing the shape of the slice. It is much easier handled and eaten. Drop the egg into a muffin ring in the water when poaching, cut the toast the same size and an attractive dish will result. FOOD FOR THE MIDDLE-AGED The eating habit is fairly well established with all ages, but in middle life overeating is a most common failing and as bad to overcome as any other well-established habit. After middle life the digestive apparatus is not as active as in youth, while the appetite is often very good and the temptation to gratify it great. As the power of the lungs, liver, kidneys and skin is considerably diminished, the food is not assimilated nor waste eliminated as rapidly, and so the organs become clogged. During the last half of life less food is required and each individual should study to know just what is needed to keep the body in perfect health. An entire fast day once a week is a good rule for those who are possessed with an overamount of weight. For others a meal skipped, omitting the one least noticed, is another good method to reduce. High blood pressure and hardening of the arteries may be helped, if taken in time, by dieting. Any person who is carrying around a surplus pound of flesh should question his habits. Overeating is one of the worst forms of waste. For the extremely aged, a light meal four or five times a day will often be found more agreeable than the regular three meals a day. Another important point is to select such foods as are easy o mastication, and avoid tough, fibrous and very coarse foods. Milk is a valuable food for any age, but is especially good for old people. It it does not seem to agree, try different forms of it. Junket and koumls are often taken, when raw milk is refused. Buttermilk is another valuable form of milk, easily digested. Condiments are of value to excite the digestive juice and should be used moderately. Cream soups or vegetable purees, with the coarser part of the vegetable removed, make fine dishes for the aged.

GOOD THINGS FOR EVERYBODY This is the time of year when we enjoy green corn. On the cob, stewed in milk, escalloped, or fried, it is always a welcome dish. CORN Tomatoes Stuffed With Green Corn.—Cut out a slice from the stem-end of tomatoes and scoop out the centers. cut off the tops of the kernels of fresh gathered corn and scrape out the kernels, leaving the hulls on the cob. Sprinkle a little salt inside the tomatoes, mix butter and seasoning with the corn, fill the tomatoes, cover with the silice removed and bake in a moderate oven until the tomato is soft. Salmagundi of Vegetables.—Take tender corn cut from the cob—enough to fill two cups—add to this a pint of thin slices of okra pods; remove the seeds and white lining from two sweet green peppers and chop fine; add two chopped white onions. Remove the peel from four good-sized tomatoes, cut into quarters and mix with the vegetables. Cook until barely soft in water to barely cover, one cupful of chopped celery and onion mixed. When both are tender add to the other vegetables and cook twenty minutes. Season with two teaspoonfuls of salt and cook for an hour or two in a fireless cooker. Cream Prune Ple.—Put through a sleeve a cupful of stewed prunes; add a cupful of milk, one teaspoonful of cornstarch, a third of a cupful of sugar, the yolks of two eggs, well beaten, and pour into a pie plate lined with pastry. Add the well-beaten whites and bake until firm. The whites may be reserved for a merlingue if desired. Pineapple Compote. — Take one pineapple to five bananas. Slice the pineapple and cook in a heavy sirup until tender. Cool and lay in a glass dish, cover with sliced bananas, sprinkled with grated nutmeg, and repeat. Serve with whipped cream and cake. When baking squash wash it without cutting, put into the oven and bake until tender. Cut, remove seeds, mash and season with butter, cream, salt and pepper. All the flavor is thus left in the vegetable and the tiresome work of getting the squash ready is eliminated. Season mashed potatoes for a change with a teaspoonful of onion juice and one-fourth of a teaspoonful of nutmeg to each quart of well-beaten and seasoned potato. If the members of the family are fond of grapefruit serve them with an after-dinner mint in the center of each for dessert, provided they like mint. In furnishings, not all expensive things are good, nor cheap ones all bad. EVERYDAY GOOD THINGS When looking for a dessert in the family that likes pie try: Nut, Cream Prune Pie.—Put through a sleeve one cupful of stewed prunes; add a cupful of rich milk, one tablespoonful of flour a third of a Nut, Cream Prune Pie.—Put through a sleeve one cupful of stewed prunes; add a cupful of rich milk, one tablespoonful of flour, a third of a cupful of sugar, the yolks of two eggs, well beaten, and the whites beaten stiff and added just at the last. Sprinkle a cupful of chopped black walnut meats over the top and bake as usual. Use a pastry-lined plate and bake at first in a hot oven, then lower the heat to bake the custard. Mashed Potatoes With Peanut Butter.—Boll, mash and beat until light, six medium-sized potatoes; add salt, one tablespoonful of butter and one-half cupful of hot milk. Heap in a hot dish. Blend one and one-half tablespoonfuls of peanut butter with one tablespoonful of butter, add a few dashes of red pepper and dot the hot potato with bits of the butter. Planked Fish.—Split the fish, wipe with a damp cloth and lay skin-side down on the well-heated plank, which has been rubbed with sweet fat. Sprinkle the fish with seasonings and dot with bits of butter if it is a fish lacking fat. Place in the oven under the broiler flame for fifteen minutes. Meanwhile have potatoes boiled, riced and seasoned, and add milk to molisten; add an egg yolk, mix well and fold in a beaten white. Arrange the mashed potato around the fish in mounds, or force through a pastry tube. Brown quickly under the broiler flame. Garnish the fish with slices of cucumber which have been marinated in French dressing, and small tomatoes cut into the form of a lily. Place whorls of mayonnaise in the center of each tomato. Cabbage Salad.—Chop cabbage, add a cupful of chopped celery to three cupfuls of cabbage, and three diced bananas. Season well and cover with any desired well-seasoned dressing. Serve in a cabbage bowl made by scooping out the cabbage from a good arm head. Garnish with fringed celery and some of the thick mayonnaise.

THE world is full of a number of things that are forerunners of winter and it appears that most of them are on display in the shops. Many of our familiar belongings are there, useful or necessary things, all more or less "prettied up" to make them catch the eye. Then there is a world of lovely furbelows—which we might do without but don't want to—and so many of them are inexpensive. At the glove counter there are sturdy gloves for winter wear of soft fabrics in quiet colors, like beaver, brown or beige. Sometimes they are short with a plain wrist to be worn with long, close-fitting sleeves. But sleeves vary so much that gloves must The bal du Grand Prix in Paris is an event of national importance socially, and of international importance so far as fashions are concerned, since all designers look to it for inspiration.

American buyers await it and then rush their purchases to this country on the fastest steamers available. The Bal this year launched fashions adapted from Indo-Chinese hats, coats and garments. At least, it may be said that it presented the colors, materials and outlines of oriental costumes to be adapted to the needs of an occidental country. The group of hats pictured here shows how deftly this has been done in millinery. Each hat in the group is designed I from some Chinese headdress. The model at the top is of black velvet, trimmed with pearls, beads and large jewels in brilliant colors. Its lines and ornament are inspired by a ceremonial crown. At the left is another development from a similar source. This is of shirred velvet, with a deep flange of the same material, surmounted by black chantilly lace. The two hats at the right find their inspiration in the conventional headdress of Buddha; the upper is of canton blue braid over a close-fitting turban shape with a hanging trimming of lace ornamented with A beads and colored jewels. The model shown below also uses braid in all-over design over gold cloth. Here, again, the trimming hangs from the under side. While these show the ideas developed directly from Chinese styles they do not include those hats of Parisian design that show the influence of the style only in a piece of beautiful Chinese embroidery, a touch of brilliant color or an ornament of oriental outline. Hundreds of such models have been produced and it is probable that in this form the vogue will most appeal to American women. Designers of coats, suits and dresses have been quick to seize on oriental motifs for the trimming of their creations, and, to be thoroughly in the picture, hats should follow the same inspiration.
