AN EQUAL CHANCE FOR EVERY BOY AND GIRL
Such was the slogan of the Colorado Educational Association in its sessions in Denver last week, which was attended by 4,000 teachers. Nothing could better establish Colorado as a desirable state in which to live than this declared policy on the part of those controlling the educational facilities and machinery of the commonwealth. Some interesting figures on illiteracy were given out during the meeting of the association, and while showing Colorado in a most favorable light as compared to other states, still the percentage of illiterates within our borders were of such proportions as to

ERNORS
draw out the declaration, heartily approved, that every boy and girl in Colorado must be given an equal educational opportunity. No one could ask for more, no one is entitled to more. A great many of the evils of which American citizens very justly complain at present, will find a very corrective force in a more general determination to improve the educational standards of the nation and thus lift to a higher plane the character of its citizenship. It may have been merely a coincidence but at least worthy of comment that the Colorado Educational Association moved in perfect harmony with a spirit that seems to be gripping the nation itself. We beg to submit the following from one of our daily papers:
"Ignorance is despotism's chief support. Knowledge and freedom go hand in hand." So said President Coolidge, in proclaiming "Education Week" next month.
One of the days of Education Week is very properly to be given over to the consideration of "equal opportunity for all." Attention will be called to the one-room, one-teacher rural schools which do not give the children chances comparable with those offered in the consolidated or city schools.
But how about the hundreds of city schools which are so crowded that thousands of children are forced to get along with "half-time" schooling? Two cities in California report a shortage of 28,527 seats. Over 57,000 children are on part-time in these two communities alone. The same thing is true for over 7,000 children in six Indiana cities, for 2,400 children in three Iowa cities, and for 23,200 children in 12 Texas cities of over 5,000 population. For 261 cities in the United States there is a shortage of 342,153 seats, affecting almost 700,000 youngsters.
SPORTSMANSHIP
A team of finished athletes came to Denver last week from St. Louis, Mo. They were colored baseball players and heralded as an aggregation of All-Stars. In their two days' appearance upon the local diamond they proved worthy of their glittering title. They were well received by the public and drew a large crowd to the ball park. This is the second professional ball team of colored players to come to Denver within the past two years. In each instance they proved strong drawing cards and proved their superiority over their opponents. Let us explain that in each instance their opponents were selected from the best white players obtainable in these parts. So far as we have been able to learn both of the colored teams were accorded royal treatment and the finest spirit of sportsmanship exhibited toward them. This, however, is in strange contrast with the treatment accorded a semi-pro team right here in Denver, representative of the colored race. The White Elephants are just as clean in their playing tactics, as gentlemanly in their deportment, as any baseball team in the country. They are a fast set of artists and when given the proper chance, prove a great drawing card. For several years in succession they won the championship in the city

DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1923
Mexican Anti-Negro Bar at Border Again Reported to N. A. A. C. P.
Advancement Association Asks U. S. Secretary of State Hughes to Investigate
New York, Oct. 19.—The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People again has received word of anti-Negro discrimination by the Mexican officials at Piedras Negras, just across the border from Eagle Pass, Texas, and has reported the facts to Charles E. Hughes, U. S. Secretary of State in Washington. The letter to Secretary Hughes, is as follows:
"Referring to your letter of Sept. 29 containing a report forwarded by the American Embassy in Mexico City, to the effect that there is no discrimination by the Mexican government against immigrants of the Negro race:
"I beg to advise that additional reports have come to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People that the Mexican government is still preventing the entrance of United States citizens at Piedras Negras and that we are informed discrimination is being practiced against persons of color.
"Furthermore, we are informed that the American consul at Eagle Pass, Texas, has failed to properly assist the persons discriminated against."
"The complainant is William Vann, who asserts that in 1909 he carried a colony of 65 families into the Republic of Mexico and settled them on a grant of 27,114 acres of land in the State of Durango, Mexico, leased to his company, The Durango Land Company, for 99 years from July 12, 1909. In 1913 the colony left their homes in Mexico and returned to the United States upon the order of the president of the United States that all American citizens were to leave Mexico. They listed their property with the American consul at that time. "Mr. Vann asserts that he has been in Eagle Pass, Texas, since Sept. 1 of this year and has not been permitted to enter the Republéic of Mexico to look after his property.
"We have a further letter from Mrs. J. A. Williams of Eagle Pass, Texas, asserting that white American citizens are permitted to enter the Republic of Mexico at Piedras Negras but that this privilege is refused to Colored citizens of the United States. Mrs. Williams further states: 'Mr. Louis Whitehead has been as far in as sixty-five miles from the border without a passport or anyone to vouch for him or any questions asked but he looks like a white man.' "May we have your advice in this matter "
league to which they were assigned and this proved their undoing. Now as each season opens, they are skillfully maneuvered out of the city leagues and given no chance to show their worth and ability even on the corner lots from whence sprang their fame some years ago. Since the St. Louis All-Stars have left such a splendid taste in the mouth and since the baseball fans are enthusiastic over the ability of colored artists, would it not be worth an effort to once get our own crack ball team in the city league again. True sportsmanship could not deny it.
BUSINESS AND FINANCE
By James N. Simms, L.L.D. Author of Simm's Blue Book, Etc.
BUSINESS INTEGRITY
A reputation for honesty and promptness in meeting financial obligations is the greatest asset that one who is engaged in business can have.
[Name]
This kind of a reputation is worth more than money itself. To have money and be without this asset you are a very poor man, indeed: for money is like the ever-changing wind or the brightest sunshine. Today we enjoy both, but on tomorrow we may not be able to get a breath of fresh air; and the sun may be hidden behind the darkest clouds; through which not a single ray of light or heat may be able to pass. So with money it is like the hidden sun or the fleeting winds. We may be rich today and poor tomorrow, but a good reputation as above expressed, if properly nursed, will do it. It will be a course through which we can acquire money when we are in the greatest need of it.
Acquaintances, neighbors and friends will find pleasure in dealing with us; for they will know that they will always get their money's worth.
"Honesty is the best policy." So let us always consider that, and be fair and square in our business relations with our fellow men which will build for us a good business reputation that will be worth more to us than money.
Y. M. C. A. NOTES
The inclement weather which has prevailed during several days during the past week had much to do with lessening the attendance at some of the activities that were held. The Employed Boys' Brotherhood had a fairly good representation at the banquet held at the Y. W. C. A. Tuesday evening. The Harry Rimmer meeting at Shorter Church on Thursday evening under the auspices of the Hi-Y, Employed Boys and other groups would have been far more successful had the weather been better. The Leaders Club did not have their regular meeting this week on account of the Rimmer meeting.
The regular Sunday afternoon meeting will be held tomorrow (Sunday) at Shorter Church. Rev. Dr. C. H. Ugams, who was prevented from being with us last Sunday on account of a funeral at his church, will be the speaker. The meeting will begin at 4 o'clock, closing at 5. All men are invited to attend.
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. A. Derry constitute our honor roll list for this week.
INSULT TO WOMEN MADE AN ISSUE BY COLORED VOTERS
In the Gubernatorial Campaign Now Being Waged in Kentucky
LOUISVILLE, KY., Oct. 18.—(By A. N. P.) The Black man's stand in the Gubernatorial Campaign now being waged in "Old Kentucky" was unequivocally defined by Bishop A. J. Carey, presiding officer of the 43rd Kentucky conference of the A. M. E. Church in session here today.
The term "migger wenches" being publicly applied to the 75,000 registered women voters, by the Democratic candidate for governor, was the signal for attack, and tonight 400 black ministers of the gospel from cities and hamlets throughout the state are entrenched solidly and enthusiastically behind Bishop Carey in this, as he terms it, the zero hour.
Honor of Colored Women Upheld
Honor of Colored Women Uphold
The bishop was eloquent in his appeal to the four hundred ministers of Kentucky to accept the challenge of this "inspired vehicle of the devil" to go forth and do battle with the man who publicly defamed as "black wenches" every one of the registered colored women of this state. "Such a man is hardly fit to be an American citizen much less the governor of the great commonwealth of Kentucky," was the unanimously expressed opinion of the ministers in their enthusiastic endorsement of the bishop's stand.
Bishop A. J. Carey got up from a sick bed in Chicago to answer this in-
Jews Resent Insult to Black Jew
Jews Resent Insult to Black Jew
The Howard Theater was the scene of a battle royal at the midnight show on last Friday night. The participants were all white—Jews and Gentiles—and the battle was waged in resentment to insulting remarks made concerning a black Jew.
David B. Kollscritta, the only Colored Jewish cantor in the world, was rendering a number on the program when three white ruffians began to make insulting remarks. The Jews in the house immediately took it up and the fight followed. It lasted for about ten minutes. Policemen came in and quieted the melee. During all the fight Mr. Kollscritta continued to sing. At the conclusion, the Jews, surrounded Mr. Kollscritta and all left the theater together, singing the Jewish national anthem.
The cantor is only 33 years old. He is a native of Abyssinia, Africa, and is a member of a Jewish tribe there which is called one of the "lost tribes." The members are of mixed Jewish and African descent, their origin it is said, going back to the days of the Queen of Sheba and King Solomon, when a great number of Jews were taken to Africa. Intermarriage perpetuated the Jewish strain and the following of the ancient religion.
When only a child, the cantor resolved to embark on the study of languages. He teils the story that in his early youth he was deformed because of a very large head and small body,

sult to our women before his own conference. Against the advice of his physicians he came to Louisville to tell the ministers and citizens of Kentucky that in Chicago where he was active against a Ku Klux Klan influence and voted for a Democratic mayor who was a Catholic, that the promises of this man have been kept with the Colored people and next week the Democratic mayor will have his appointment of the first Colored library trustee confirmed by a Democratic council with the exception of two Colored aldermen.
"We must vote for the best qualified and the most honest office seeker," said Bishop Carey, "but we must condemn the self seeker who would ride into office by capitalizing race hate and stop at nothing short of the destruction of the good name of women and children. The Colored citizens of Kentucky will go to the polls and crush this Ben Tillman fire-eater, who voted against the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill in the United States Congress and speaks of Colored women as wenches and good men as "niggers." The Colored men and women will go to the polls on Nov. 6 and elect as Governor Morrow's successor, General Charles L. Dawson, the Republican candidate, who has stood for the life and limbs even the very necks of Colored citizens against the mad mobs."
and as a result drew the derision of members of other tribes whose tongues he did not know. The boy determined to learn their tongues to know what they were saying. He added many European and Oriental as well as ancient classical languages to his African list, in all 28 languages.
Mr. Kollscritta pursued his earlier studies in Palestine and later went on a tour of the world with scientists searching for the "lost tribes." He traveled for five years, and states that he has been in every civilized country. The cantor reads and writes nine languages; can speak fourteen fluently. Here is but a part of the list: Spanish, French, Italian, German, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Dutch, ancient Hebrew, Yiddish, Targon, a language of Bible times; Bible Latin, in which he is well versed; Russian, Polish, Gaelic, Slavish, ancient Greek, the original Ethiopian, of which he can write the script; Flemish, Manchu and Chinese; also Kaffir's, Malay, Zulu, Zambesi and Hottentot, all African tongues, as well as Boer, which is similar to Dutch.
Kollscritta declares that the most difficult language he had to learn was English. "It has so many letters that say nothing," was his way of expressing his difficulty. During the war Kollscritta was eleven months in France. There he became acquainted with a Chinese cook who knew English and taught the cantor much Chinese. Kollscritta was an interpreter in the army during the war. Incidentally he is an American citizen.—Washington Eagle.
AMERICA'S HELP ASSURED IF AL

IN SETTLEMENT
BRITAIN RENEWS PLEA TO U. S.
TO PARTICIPATE IN REPARA-
TION PROBLEM CONFERENCE
London.—Correspondence issued by
the foreign office showing that the
British government had seized the oc
casion of the first public statement by
President Coolidge on the situation In
Europe to send another formai Invita-
tion to the Washington government to
co-operate in a new conference in_an
attempt to settle the reparations diffi-
culty, came almost as: complete sur-
prise to the public and newspapers.
Lord Curzon’s request is for Ameri-
can participation in any form, either
official or nonofficial, or alternatively,
to participation In an inquiry by a spe
cial commission appointed by the rep-
urgtions commission,
In his reply to Lord Curzon, Seere-
tary Hughes declares that the United
States is willing to take part in an eco-
nomic conference in which all the
Europenn allies chiefly concerned in
German reparations participate for the
purpose of ascertaining Germany's a
pacity to pay and an appropriate plan
for payment.
He emplusized three points, how-
First, that while the United States)
has no desire to see Germany relieved
of her responsibility or Just obliga-
tions, regard must be had for Ger-
many’s capacity to pay and for the
fundamental condition of — Germany's
rehabilitation ;
Second, that sueb conference should
be advisory ;
‘Third, that the question of the inter-
allied debt is entirely separate from
the question of reparations.
‘No official opinion could be gleaned
at the foreign office, but the general
view seems to be that there is not a
sufficient’ advance in Secretary
Hughes’ attitude, as revealed by the
rorrespondence, to warrant a very
strong hope that the suggested confer-
snee will materialize,
It is feared that France still will op-
pese any such suggestion, more espe
dally as Mr. Hughes so firmly main-
tains the position that the question of
the interallied debt must be treated
separately from that of reparations,
‘onfirming that the new president has
to more intention than his predecessor
of forgiving the allied debts.
Plymouth, Eng.—The British prime
minister, speaking here before 5,000

efused the Invitation extended by the
British government to the allies to ac
‘ept American participation in a con-
ference for a settlement of the Ger-
han reparation question.

anyone could refuse to take advantage
of such an opportunity.

Handkerchiefs oval in shape are fashion's newest fad in England. Once they were made all shapes. In 1784 Louis XVI issued a law that all handkerchiefs should be square in shape, because Queen Marle Antoinette remarked that it would be much neater. Now, can you understand why Louis and Marle Antoinette were beheaded and the revolution came?

Curiously enough, the cock bird speaks in a high, clear tone like that of a child, while the hen has a gruff voice.

THE COLORADO STATESMAN has been so busy preparing good things for our readers that we have not stopped to take notice of the good things our subscribers are saying about us. On every hand this paper is being praised and complimented for its up-to-date news. We have received this week many letters for copies of THE COLORADO STATESMAN. Every body said it was good reading, and the public ought to know. We want to thank you for your praise and promise you it will not swell our heads or hinder us from giving you the best Negro journal published in the West. All we ask you to do is to read it, invite others to read it and help us in pushing the circulation. We will every now and then stop to notice your appreciation, but our main purpose is upward and onward. THE COLORADO STATESMAN proposes to be in the vanguard of Negro journalism and give our readers "something worth while." Your part is to "boost" while we "push" and we will soon get to the top.
SPORT
SPORT is play; business is work. As a fundamental necessity in the affairs of life, work comes before play. Play is the recreative aftermath of work; a relaxation which brings rest and renewed vigor. But sport is systematized play, which, while affording the people general opportunity for recreation, is largely commercialized and given an absorbing feature of excitement.
But sport is not business, except for those commercially interested. In any form it is finally, for the people in general, just a foil for work; a relaxation from strenuous and necessary endeavor.
The white American is a great patron of and believer in sport, but it is but an incidental item compared with the volume of his business. He indulges his taste for sport only after his well established business warrants relaxation and rest.
In general desire and character of indulgence, the colored American is just as big a sport as his better fortified white brother. He don't have to be grounded and engrossed in business to such an extent that recreative pleasure is a necessity. He loves sport for the play and for the sake of the abandonment of work. He neglects labor and its ardent and necessary advancement for the sake of sport. Our quota of sportsmen is entirely too large when compared with our quota of business men.
There is no branch of ordinary sport in which the colored man is not fully developed, but there are many branches of business to which he has not turned a mastering hand. In racing, boxing, baseball, football and all the alluring games of chance and dexterity, we can measure arms with the white man, when he will let us do so, and when he will not let us do so, we are nevertheless ardent supporters of the white man's sports and games.
There seems to be an unrestrained measure of sporting blood in the veins of many of our best leaders and admirers. The easy course we are adopting needs positive restraint and strong reversal. We have too large interest in sport and too small interest in legitimate business fundamentals, out of which the love of sport should grow.

OPEN and penetrating eyes are essential to real up-to-date progress. Seeing details and adding them to your already acquired store of knowledge, is the acme of business success or any other kind of success that may be named. The Holy Writ has only condemnation for the man who "has eyes and see not," and words of praise and promise for the man who has eyes and sees with them. Seeing the advantage is the boon of every man. There are so many good and new things to see in this growing world that a man ought never to use his precious time and splendid faculty in simply seeing the evil. The viewpoint or vantage ground for observation is also necessary. Some people never place themselves at the right place to get a focus. A pool room, dive or gambling parlor is a poor place to see the great transaction of commerce. A card table or bar room is a poor place to see educational, literary or scientific progress, and bad associates and low levels are poor places to see spiritual visions. Get the right viewpoint and train your optics and thoughts in the right direction and you will see thousands of opportunities and possibilities where one does not occur to you now.
What the Negro needs now and sadly is a new vision and a new viewpoint in order that he may see the wonderful changes and chances that are taking place around him every day. Read this paper and keep posted as to how you and yours may become a part in the various things that are transpiring every hour. If you have eyes, then see. It is our duty to point it out for you.
SOUND BUSINESS ADVICE

This the Negro has is fast losing the respect of the many after company is declining under why it is so? Listen; it act or social discrimination, notainty, reliability and prompten this agreement'. It is this desulat that is causing the Negro to lose social agencies, the trade journal, complaint against the Negro and doing their advice. In other art
THERE are several old adages, "business is business," "business before pleasure," etc, which, translated, means that business cannot be done on promises, songs or hopes, but only on sound, practical, punctual business methods. Contracts are agreements to pay and ought to be regarded as sacred obligations. This the Negro has not yet learned to do and because of this is fast losing the respect of the business world. Firm after firm and company after company is declining Negro patronage with thanks. Do you wonder why it is so? Listen; it is not prejudice, not caste, not social contact or social discrimination, none of these things; it is simply lack of certainty, reliability and promptness on the part of the Negro to make good his agreement. It is this desultoriness, laxity, slackness and tardiness that is causing the Negro to lose out in the business world. The commercial agencies, the trade journal, the collection agencies are all filing a bill of complaint against the Negro and the merchants and business men are heeding their advice. In other articles to follow we are going to show the practical working of these changes against the race. We are not scolding, nagging or knocking the race; we are but telling living truths, truths to help us and not let us fall in the esteem of those with whom we have to do business. Keep your eye upon this column for sound business advice. THE COLORADO STATESMAN is in the field of constructive race help and is doing its duty. Keep the files of your paper and follow carefully our talks upon this important subject.

As a subscriber to your paper for eleven years and a personal acquaintance for a very long time. I am pleased to extend congratulations on behalf of my wife and self for your successful service to the people of the West, in the publication of so valuable a journal as the COLORADO STATESMAN for the period of twenty-nine years. We always look forward with pleasure to the receipt of the paper which brings quite an enjoyment in the reading of same. Wishing for you and your faithful wife a longer and more prosperous career, and that the paper will continue its fight for truth and right in the future as in the past, accept our best wishes. From

Conceived in the interest of humanity, born to battle for righteousness, and lived through the past twenty-nine years advocating the principles of truth and fostering the ideals of true citizenship as exemplified by the great teachers of the Colored race, the Colorado Statesman stands out foremost as an exponent of principles that has for its object the religious, moral, physical and educational advancement of the Colored race.
Looking back twenty-nine years is indeed a short period of time, but the great advancement in art, science, business, education and useful citizenship as exemplified by the Colored people as a race has indeed been remarkable.
May this advancement not only continue, may the influence as presaged by the teachers, press, business and finance be emulated by the thousands who are seeking to attain a higher degree of education and personal usefulness so that in future years the younger generation can look back back twenty-nine years and herald the announcement that they too were the exponents of principles for further advancement of the race as exemplified by one of its teachers—Joseph D. Rivers.
Accept Mr. Rivers, my personal congratulations for the splendid and valuable contribution you have given in the interest of humanity, and may the Ruler of destinies spare your life for many years in order that ideas promulgated through the Colorado Statesman may be successfully carried out. With my best personal wishes, I am Very truly yours.

DENVER
Colored Ball Team Proves Strong Attraction
The St. Louis All-Stars, an aggregation of ball players selected from the best teams of the Negro National League, played in Denver last Saturday and Sunday against Milliken Whizz-Bangs and made a decided hit by their high knowledge of the game and by their clean sportsmanship on the diamond. The All-Stars won two of the three games played here in a manner that showed them to be real artists in their line. The daily papers were all warm in praise of the Colored team and it is certain their visit here has been beneficial in many ways.

Cheyenne, Wyo. News
The Mutual Benefit Association, a social club for men, is incorporated in this city. A charter from the State of Wyoming has been secured. Directors for one year: Jordon Davis, G. W. Carter and C. J. Toliver. Place of meeting 922 West 18th street. The action of two of the applicants for charter has been commented upon by some of our citizens because of the moral standing of the applicants. It is said by a few of the "good citizens" that it was unwise for a church officer and a civic leader who has advocated higher citizenship and community pride to sponsor a "club." They also predict dreadful things to happen at the "club" and perhaps their prediction is father to the hope. The club has not formerly opened so it is just as well that our "good citizens" should criticise and predict as it is natural to a certain element of our group to do so. Mr. Toliver has been a close observer of civic conditions during the past and has protested openly when certain immoral conditions hurtful to the race existed. In his fight for civic betterment he was assisted by a small number of real Christians. However Toliver is glad to know there are others who were hiding out and are now ready to get on the moral side of civic welfare. Mr. Toliver and Mr. Carter has no pecuniary interest in the "club." Both men are hard working, industrious citizens and have no time to spend in "clubs." The directors have assurance that order will be maintained at all times and members will be courteous and gentlemanly in behavior. Mr. Toliver has kept a close civic check on our citizens and newcomers in this city. The check has shown one-half of one per cent go to church and are members of church auxiliaries, one-half of one per cent don't want any place to go and 99 per cent want "club" life. If the members of the Mutual Benefit Association thought it necessary to secure three responsible names to the petition for charter Mr. Toliver feels it fair to assist the 99 per cent, always in mind the fact that the State of Wyoming does not issue a charter to commit lawless acts.
Mr. Randolph Butler of Denver was a recent guest of his brother and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Butler.
The chicken dinner given by the Excelsior Club, an auxiliary of the Second Baptist Church, netted $160 to the Baptist building fund.

Michael J. Boyle, Chicago labor leader, and Ben Newmark, were released from jail recently when commutations of their six months' jail sentences for contempt of court granted by Gov. Len Small were delivered to Sheriff Edwin Abstrom.
Mangled and crushed by tons of rock and wedged under heavy timbers the bodies of two miners still are held in the clutches of stope No. 20 of the Utah-Apex metal mine, while Supt. Joseph Norden and Jose Ratalza, saved by the choice of fate, are now basking in Utah's sunlight.
Fifty-six cars of California grapes and two cars of Northwestern apples went under the hammer in a unique const-to-coast auction conducted over a private telegraph wire connecting Las Angeles with Chicago, Pittsburgh, New York and Boston markets. Buyers in each city bid on each car as it was offered and the sale was over in ninety minutes. Representatives of the live stock industry, headed by Fred H. Bixby of Long Beach, Calif., president of the National Live Stock Association, conferred in San Francisco recently with Eugene Meyer, Jr., managing director, and Frank W. Mondell, director of the war finance corporation, who were assigned by President Coolidge to study wheat and live stock conditions in the Northwest.
The municipality of Oakland has entered upon an avowed campaign to "put the one-man street cars out of business." Big city-owned motor busses have appeared with the announcement that they would take passengers anywhere a one-man street car would take them, and for 1 cent less fare. In addition the penalties against jitney busses using the main streets were dropped from the jitney ordinance.
By the end of the present year oil production of the three great poots in the Los Angeles district, Signal Hill, Huntington Beach and Santa Fe Springs, will commence to register a marked decrease and during 1924 motorists will pay for the cheap gasoline they now are burning freely at low prices, according to findings of experts, reported to the Petroleum institute and the Southern California Oil Producers' executive committee.
WASHINGTON
Two new government hospitals for tubercular ex-service men will be built in Livermore, Calif., and Los Angeles, Calif., it was announced in Washington a few days ago by Director Hines of the United States veterans' bureau. Each hospital will contain 250 beds, but will be enlarged as conditions justify. Bids will be asked within thirty days, said Hines.
John J. Pershing, who a little over six years ago secretly left Washington for France, again has slipped quietly away from the capital for a sojourn on French soil. He sailed aboard the liner Leviathan from New York a few days ago, and it will be three months before he returns again from the land where his leadership helped to write history during the great war.
Prohibition Commissioner Haynes has launched a new campaign against home brew. In order to stamp out what he characterized as "the menace" of trafficking in home brew ingredients he announced a few days ago that he would revoke the permits of all breweries which continue the practice of making malt syrups, now widely used as a base for home-made beers. Co-operation between the western states and those of the South in seeking expansion of the government's reclamation policy to embrace all sections of the country will be the object of the forestry, reclamation and home-making conference to be conducted at New Orleans, Nov. 19-22, it was announced in correspondence made public in Washington a few days ago.
American exports of animal products and meats showed a marked increase during September as compared with September a year ago, while the exports of products in the grain, fruit and vegetable divisions decreased. Figures prepared by the Commerce Department gave the September total of meats exported at 95,356,921 pounds, valued at $13,520,489, against $66,045,-583 pounds, valued at $10,819,159 a year ago.
A sweeping program of federal and state co-operation and education—designed to dry up America and stop the leakages of the Volstead act and the eighteenth amendment—was adopted by President Coolidge's "law and order conference" at the White House, attended by the governors of thirty-six states and territories.
Decision to investigate each of the major federal irrigation projects from its inception to the present state of development has been reached by the special advisory committee on reclamation.
A movement by separatists for an independent republic in the Rhineland was begun when two proclamations informing the inhabitants of the Alx La Chapelle that their government had been changed were signed by Leo Deckers and Dr. Guthardt, and were posted in Aux La Chapelle.
The movement started by Aurelio Manrique in the state of San Luis Potosi, Mexico, to take over the governorship has failed and Manrique is reported to have taken refuge, disguised, in Mexico City, while the dissatisfied elements which supported the attempted coup d'erat have been dispersed.
Publication in Tokla of reports that more than 500 Korean residents of Japan were killed by vigilantes and troops during the exeetement following the earthquake brought forth an authoritative statement detailing alleged instances of booing, incendiarism and other outrages committed by Koreans individually or in groups. Republican headquarters in Dublin issued a statement claiming there are 6,262 Sinn Fein prisoners on hunger strikes in Free State jails. Demobilization of the Free State army is proceeding at the rate of 500 men weekly. The army strength was put at 38,900 men. It is reported that the famous Dublin secret service is being disbanded.
Nikolai Lenin, premier of Russia, has completely recovered the use of his paralyzed leg and is able to mount the stairs to the second floor of his residence unaided, according to a statement made in Moscow a few days ago by Dr. N. Samashko, commissary of public health, who is one of the physicians attending Lenin. The premier is anxious to begin work and the physicians are having difficulty in restraining him.
Preparations for lifting the 2,000 tons of earth, stone and wooden joists that now rest over the tomb of Tutankhamen are proceeding apace. Howard Carter and his American associates, Messrs. Candler and Burton, have re-established themselves in their lonely concrete domiciles at the entrance to the Valley of the Kings and have made a preliminary survey of the work that must be done before the inner tomb, believed to contain the mummy of Pharaoh, can be opened.
With the situation in the Ruhr and Rhineland rapidly approaching a condition of an acute social and economic crisis, with Saxony's socialist-communist ministry continuing its defiance of the central government, and with Bavaria having severed diplomatic relations with Saxony, Chancellor Stresemann's coalition cabinet is confronted with issues which will afford it an early opportunity to make use of the dictatorship authority voted it by the reichstag in the emergency power bill.
Violent incidents have occurred in Aix-La-Chapelle. The police decided to oppose the Separatists and tried to tear down the Rhineland colors from public buildings. A squadron of Belgian cavalry turned out, ready to intervene if necessary. Later the police fired on a group of Republicans who replied. Several persons were killed. Six towns are known to have been occupied by the Separatists in addition to Aix-La-Chapelle. They are Munchen-Gladbach, Crefeld, Julich, Montjoie, Cleve and Duren.

The birthplace of Abraham Lincoln at Hodgeville, in western Kentucky, was visited by David Lloyd George, the former British premier.
Marcel Ruelian, veteran of the French wartime flying service, sacrificed his life before 12,000 spectators at Port Colden, N. J., in attempting to stop an airplane that had made a landing and threatened to plunge into the crowd after the pilot had been tossed out. Realizing that a disaster was imminent, Ruelian sprang straight at the whirling propeller, grasped it with both hands and sought by main strength to still the engine, but the powerful blades sliced out of his grip and one smashed his skull.
Carelessness by pedestrians and drivers of automobiles caused 31,604 fatal and non-fatal accidents in the United States during 1922 at a minimum financial loss of $13,509,078, according to an estimate by the Chicago safety commission.
The dissolution of the Cement Manufacturers' Association on the ground that it was a trust was ordered by Judge Knox in United States District Court. Judge Knox extended the dissolution to include the association and all its corporate and individual members. He further ordered the so-called trust to discontinue the practice of interchanging statistics regarding production and granted all other decrees sought in the government suit.
Another move in which it was declared to be action intended to rid organized labor in Nebraska of radicalism was made in Omaha last week when the executive committee of the State Federation of Labor withdrew endorsement of the Midwest Labor News, a labor paper published in Omaha. The action was taken, committee members said, on the ground the paper has published views derogatory to the policies of the State and American Federations.
A report charging Gov. J. C. Walton with "willful neglect of duty, incompetency, corruption in office and offenses involving moral turpitude," was submitted to the lower house of the Oklahoma Legislature by its committee on investigation and impenchment.

LATE NEWS From All Over COLORADO
Denver.—About 900 deer have been killed in Colorado this season, contrasted with 600 slain last year, according to the estimate of R. G. Parvin, state game and fish commissioner. Denver.—The white plague caused 232 deaths in Colorado during September, the monthly report issued by the State Board of Health shows. Diphtheria is next on the list with 193 deaths, according to the report. Julesburg.—Mrs. R. D. McClintock, wife of a teacher in the Sedgwick County High school here, was killed accidentally when she was shot through the heart by a shotgun leaning in a clothes closet of her home. Her body, discovered by her 8-year-old son, Robert, was lying in the closet with the shotgun underneath.
Golden.—A. J. Weinig of Telluride has been appointed director of the experimental plant at the Colorado School of Mines, according to an announcement by the board of directors of the school. Weinig is a graduate of the school and also of the University of Colorado. He is widely known as a mining expert.
Fort Lupton.—Sixty Japanese children attending school in a two-story brick structure here, narrowly escaped suffocation from smoke when the upper portion of the building was destroyed by fire of unknown origin. Several of the children were overcome by the smoke and had to be carried from the burning building.
Fort Collins.—Competitive drill on the campus of the Colorado Agricultural College, which was won in Class A by Canton Rogers No. 1 of Denver, and in Class B by Canton Fort Collins No. 21 of Fort Collins, was the high spot in the program of the second day of the fifty-sixth annual Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Denver.—Prior to his departure for the East, Governor Sweet issued two proclamations, one designating Oct. 19 as Constitution day, the other setting aside Oct. 27 as Navy day. Everyone is asked to observe these two days in some manner and the schools are requested to pause long enough to conduct exercises appropriate to the occasion.
Denver.—A total of $1,249,408.46 was spent by the University of Colorado during the fiscal year which ended Nov. 30, 1922, according to the state auditor's report, made public here. According to the report, the outstanding feature of the audit is the fact that $16,670.79 was expended by the university to raise $76,552.77 for the medical department of the institution.
Denver.—Research work on oil shale is being conducted by the Department of Interior at Washington, through the bureau of mines, in co-operation with the state of Colorado, the University of Utah, and the department of conservation of the state of Indiana. The object of this work is twofold: First, to determine the conditions of retorting that produce the highest yields of the best oil from various shales, and second, to make a thorough study of methods of refining oil shale.
Denver.—Farmers on the Grand Valley project are sitting pretty, according to a Department of Interior report announced in Washington. The third crop of alfalfa has been harvested and some of it already is being marketed. Beet growers received their final payment from the Holly Sugar Company, bringing their total return to $10.55 a ton. Potatoes yielded well and have brought fair prices. The report states that the grain harvest on the Uncompahgre project is virtually complete and that prospects are excellent for good yields of sugar beets with a high sugar content. The potato crop was one-third below normal.
Denver.—The board of directors of the American Wheat Growers' Association will meet in Denver, Oct. 30, to perfect plans of co-operative associations of growers controlling 75 percent of the wheat grown in the United States.
Boulder.—Homecoming day at the University of Colorado will be Nov. 2 this year. The cornerstone of the new gymnasium is to be laid in the afternoon and the usual home-coming day play is to be given in the evening. "A Woman's Way" has been chosen as the vehicle, and members of the Players' Club, under the direction of Carl Glick, will take part.
Greeley.—Weld county as a county government or political unit has no right to appeal from the order of the State Board of Equalization which sustained the Colorado Tax Commission in boosting the assessment of the county more than $4,000,000 over the figures set by County Assessor Homer F. Bedford, according to an opinion given to Assessor Bedford by Attorney General Russell Fleming. Aggrieved taxpayers may contest the assessment in the courts, however, the opinion states.
Boulder.—University of Colorado coeds are to make dolls and other toys as Christmas presents for the children of Gorham and Marshall, two coal mining camps near Boulder. Another group is conducting sewing classes in Superior, Marshall and Gorham.
Denver.—The Hereford herd owned by Paul Hahnewald, well-known Denver cattleman, has again received highest honors from stock judges. A telegram received here from Mr. Hahnewald stated that his herd had received high awards in the Texas State Fair at Dallas, Texas.
ORIGINAL IN POOR CONDITION
CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS
Steamboat Springs.—Routt county has a new court house after forty-five years of shifting from log cabins to a temporary brick abode, the present seat of official business, in Steamboat Springs. Prior to Dec. 12, 1912, when the county sent was moved to the present location, the records of Routt county were kept in a two-story frame structure at Hahns peak. Before that and since 1877, Routt county official headquarters consisted of a log cabin at Hayden. Five times, county records have been moved from one log building to another, and when the present new home is occupied, sometime next spring, the county will own its first permanent official home.
Pueblo.—One person was killed and four injured when a Missouri Pacific light engine crashed into an automobile about four miles east of this city a few days ago. The automobile contained teachers coming to this city from La Junta for the annual convention of the southern division of the Colorado Education Association. The dead: Miss Margaret May Chambers, of Las Animus, teacher in the La Junta schools. The injured: Claire Pringle, La Junta; Mrs. Grace M'Gee, teacher in La Junta schools; Miss Madeline M'Gee, La Junta; Miss Floy Christy, teacher in La Junta schools.
Denver.—Colorado corn practically reaching the high point of 32,000,000; potatoes sharply going off nearly 2,000,-000 and falling under 15,000,000 bushels, less than half of corn, with spring wheat, beans and other crops holding steady compared with a month ago, are the outstanding features of the regular crop report for Oct. 1, just issued by the U. S. Department of Agriculture (Division of Crop and Livestock Estimates) in co-operation with the State Board of Immigration.
Longmont.—Two hundred acres of land, including the Cliffs and Heights, have been added to the Y. M. C. A. ground holdings in Estes park, through efforts of the Rev. Timothy Stone of Chicago, who has a cottage in the section. It is understood that the consideration was $63,000. Of this amount, the Y. M. C. A. conference, committee is to raise $30,000, and the Rev. Mr. Stone the remainder through wealthy friends in the East. Fort Collins.—P. D. Nelson, Berthoud attorney and former member of the State Legislature, is fighting a legal battle for the possession of a buck he shot which was taken from him on his way home by Deputy Game Warden Joe Gray. Nelson was bringing the deer down the Poudre Canon road, which is on the boundary of the Colorado game refuge and Gray accused him of shooting the deer in the refuge and took charge of the carcass.
Denver.—Although the late U. S. Senator Samuel D. Nicholson left a fortune of $1,050,722.17, his estate paid an inheritance tax of but $21,974.50, a comparatively small amount, because the bulk of the legacies are to revert to charity after the death of the beneficiaries, according to Winton M. Ault, state inheritance tax collector. The sum of $55,578.48 was collected by this department during the semi-monthly period which ended Oct. 15.
Fort Collins.—Two Wyoming couples exchanged partners here for their second matrimonial dance when Bert Allen Hubbs, 30, married Mrs. Gladys Kirkbride, 28, and Larry Kirkbride, 28, married Mrs. Verda Hubbs, 28. The exchange, it is said, was effected in a friendly way and with considerable romantic atmosphere when the two couples, rearranged, were united in a double ceremony by Justice of the Peace J. C. Sarchet.
Limon.—A trip to Pennsylvania by three Englewood, Colo., youths, whose total capital consisted of a "four-bit piece," ended with their arrest here and the seizure of a car which they "borrowed" from one of the youth's fathers. The boys gave their names as John H. Smith, John Wifley, and Charles Holden. The car in which they were journeying belong to the father of young Smith.
Colorado Springs.—Mrs. E. J. Shoemaker has appealed to the police in an effort to locate her husband, missing since Sept. 15, and who, she fears, may have been the victim of Alexander A. Kels, wealthy Lodi, Calif., butcher, confessed slayer of an itinerant workman employed by him. Shoemaker was in the neighborhood of the Kels ranch, near Stockton, Calif., about the time of the murder, his wife says.
Greeley.—That leprosy was the cause of the death of Mrs. Cora Emma Neill, 65 years old, who died at her home in Eaton, was the statement of Dr. W. H. Wood, Weld county coroner, following an investigation of the case in which two other physicians co-operated. Mrs. Neill had been an invalid for the last two years and it was at first believed that her death was the result of rheumatism.
Limon.—The three alleged automobile bandits who escaped from the new Limon jail were recaptured by Limon officers in a cornfield at Bullek, Colo., fifteen miles from the town. Sheriff H. L. Corder of Weld county, with Deputy Sheriff A. F. Burkhardt, took the bandits into custody.
Denver.—Approximately 54 per cent of all farms growing crops in Colorado this year, or 27,829, are raising corn, as compared to 51.6 per cent, or 28,213, last year, but the acreage on each farm planted to corn is far greater and the number of farms operating is smaller. Boulder.—The annual conference of high school editors and managers is to be conducted in this city Nov. 22-24, under the auspices of the Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalistic fraternity. Two hundred are expected and they will be put up at fraternity and sorority houses.
STANDARD-BRED CHICKENS FAVORED
Eggs
Club Members Proud of Their Plymouth Rock Flock.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
Poultry club work is popular in Wythe county, Virginia, under the direction of the United States Department of Agriculture, co-operating with the Virginia Polytechnic Institute. The keeping of standard-bred chickens is encouraged and the club members, who are shown demonstrating the selection of eggs and the examination of a bird's legs in connection with cuiting, are very proud of their Plymouth Rock flock and roomy hen house. They take care of their chickens themselves and enter them in various club contests.
MAKE APPLE-PECTIN EXTRACT FOR JELLY
MAKE APPLE-PECTIN EXTRACT FOR JELLY
Fruit Should Be Solid, Tart and Free From Wormholes and Other Blemishes.
(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.)
Attractive jellies of good flavor are secured by the use of pectin extracts with such materials as strawberries, rhubarb, ripe red and black raspberries, fresh or canned pineapples, peaches, and cherries; and the yield of jelly is equal to that obtained from fruit of the best jellying quality.
Pectin may be extracted at home from apples or the white peel of oranges and lemons, and stored in sterilized containers until wanted for use in jelly making. The United States Department of Agriculture gives the following directions for making apple-pectin, which is useful in making a great many fruit jellies:
The fruit should be firm, free from decay and wormholes, tart, and hard-ripe rather than mealy. Apples which do not bring the highest market prices because of surface blemishes and deformities, and sound culls, are often entirely suitable for the making of pectin extracts. The apples should be cleaned by thorough scrubbing; they need not be cored or pared, but stems and imperfect spots should be removed. A considerable amount of pectin of very satisfactory quality can be extracted from the cores and parings alone, but this extract does not have such a pleasant flavor as that obtained from the whole apples.
Convenient quantities to use are four pounds of apples and four and a half pints of water. Slice the apples thin; this is better than passing them through a meat grinder, since finely ground apples darken very quickly, and impart an unattractive color to the pectin extract. Place in a granite saucepan large enough so that the whole mass can be brought quickly to boiling. Cover the pan and boil the mixture rapidly for 20 minutes. Rapid boiling is recommended. When the boiling is finished, strain the mass through four thicknesses of cheesecloth until the juice ceases to drip. It is not advisable to squeeze the bag; but the pomace, or pulp, may be lightly pressed with a spoon, toward the end of the dripping period, to force the flow of the last drops of the juice. When dripping is complete, remove the pomace from the bag, weigh or measure it, return it to the saucepan, and add an equal quantity of water. Boil again for 20 minutes, and strain. The first two extractions should together amount to about three quarts. Mix them together in a wide granite pan, such as a dish pan, large enough so that the liquid will not be more than two inches deep. Heat rapidly until the liquid is reduced to one-fourth of its original volume, or to about one and a half pints; this usually requires from 30 to 45 minutes. The concentration should be carried on rapidly, since it is easy to injure the pectin if the boiling process continues for several hours.
If it is desired to preserve the pectin extract for use with fruits which come at another season, it should be poured while boiling hot into clean jars or bottles which have been standing in boiling water, and sealed at once. If large amounts of jelly are to be made at one time, the pectin extract may, of course, be stored in jars of any convenient size. Otherwise small bottles holding about one gill or one-half cupful are recommended, in order to do away with the necessity for reheating the extract or reprocessing a jar to prevent spoilage, each time a part of the contents is removed.
Children's Lunch Basket
Combinations similar to those below, which are suggested by the United States Department of Agriculture, will be found excellent for the school lunch basket. Many others equally good will suggest themselves.
Sandwiches with sliced tender meat for filling; baked apple; cookies or a few lumps of sugar. Slices of meat loaf or bean loaf; sandwiches; stewed fruit; small frosted cake.
Crisp rolls, hollowed out and filled with chopped meat or fish, moistened and seasoned, or mixed with creamy sweetening; orange, apple, a mixture of fruits, or berries; cake.
Lettuce or celery sandwiches;
cup custard; jelly sandwiches.
Cottage-cheese sandwiches, or
a pot of cream cheese with
bread- and- butter sandwiches;
peanut sandwiches; fruit; cake.
Hard-boiled eggs; baking powder
biscuits; celery or radishes;
brown sugar or maple-sugar
sandwiches.
Bottle of milk; thin cornbread
and butter; dates; apple.
Raisin or nut bread with butter;
cheese; orange; maple sugar.
Baked-bean and lettuce sandwiches;
apple sauce; sweet chocolate.
HEADCHEESE IS GOOD CHANGE
Acceptable Meat for Lunch or Supper and May Be Easily Made—Government Recipe.
For lunch or supper cold sliced headcheese is an acceptable meat, which may be easily made. The United States Department of Agriculture gives the following recipe:
Cut a hog's head into four pieces. Remove the brains, ears, skin, snout, and eyes. Cut off the fattest parts for lard. Put the lean and bony parts to soak overnight in cold water in order to extract the blood and dirt. When the head is cleaned put it over the fire to boil, using water enough to cover it. Boil until the meat separates readily from the bones. Then remove from the fire and pick out all the bones. Drain off the liquor, saving a part of it for future use. Chop the meat fine with a chopping knife. Return it to the kettle and pour on enough of the liquid to cover the meat. Let it boil slowly for 15 to 30 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper just before removing it from the fire. Bay leaves, a little ground cloves, and allspice may be added and boiled for a while in the soup. If not condensed enough to form jelly, a little gelatin may be dissolved in cold water and mixed well with the cheese just before filling into molds.
WAY FOR WASHING CORDUROY
Must Not Be Rubbed, Squeezed or Ironed—When Dry Raise Nap by Brushing Briskly.
Corduroy is a kind of cotton velvet which may be washed providing it is not rubbed, squeezed or ironed, says the United States Department of Agriculture. If it is made up at home, stitch the seams with a loose stitch to prevent puckering when washed. Before laundering babies' coats or other lined garments loosen the lining at the bottom to avoid bagging. Use a solution of mild soap, or for dark colors which may streak or fade, a solution of soap bark. Souse the garment up and down in the soapy water, changing the water as it becomes soiled. Rinse in several clear waters until no more dirt and soap come out. Hang the garment up dripping wet and so that it will dry in the shape in which it is worn. Dry in the wind, if possible. When dry brush briskly to raise the nap.
