THEODORE ROOSEVELT, ASSISTANT SECRETARY OF THE NAVY, ADDRESSES ANNUAL MASS MEETING OF THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF COLORED PEOPLE, RENAISSANCE CASINO, 138TH STREET AND SEVENTH AVENUE, SUNDAY AFTERNOON, JANUARY 6, AT 4 P.M. VOL. XXX COL. THEODORE R ANT SECRETARY DRESSES ANNUAL OF THE NATION FOR THE ADVAN ORED PEOPLE, SINO, 138TH STRE AVENUE, SUN D JANUARY 6, AT 4 WORK OF ASSOCIATION "AMER- ICANISM OF A HIGH ORDER" Colonel Roosevelt said in part: "I strongly endorse the work that has been and is being done by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. It is constructive work of a high order and as such is practical Americanism of great value. We have far too great a tendency in this country to content ourselves with words. Words are all right in their way, but amount to but little unless they predicate action. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People both preaches and practices its preachments and that is why I am strong for it. "As I see it, the ends we must strive for in this country divide themselves largely into two groups. Both of these groups are covered by the work of the association. The first is to see that colored Americans get all the privileges to which they are entitled by their American citizenship. The second is to aid in every way the development of colored Americans in order that they may take up and carry with credit the responsibilities of citizenship. Favors Enactment of Dyeh Anti- Lynching Bill. "The ideals underlying our endeavors under both of these groups are thoroughly in accord with our concepts of Americanism. I have said that words are valuable only if they predicate action. Therefore if the ideals I have outlined above mean to us more than empty words, we should set about seeing that they are practiced in our country. For this reason I favor the passage of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill. Though others have been lynched, the vast majority of the lynching outrages are perpetrated on colored Americans. Regardless, however, of who is affected thereby, lynching has been for a long time a stench in the nortrils of all liberty-loving, law-abiding Americans. Many an innocent man has suffered thereby, and for those who are guilty of crime, the punishment should be inflicted through due process of law and in no other way. "Lynching has not simply destroyed its victims, but in addition it has contravened our American principles. There are those who say that the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill would not eliminate lynching in this country. Perhaps they are right, but at least it would indicate how the country, as a country, feels toward such brutal lawlessness. We should pass the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill, and after its passage use every legitimate endeavor to have it legally enforced. The issue on lynching is clear-cut as a die. It is law or lawlessness, and to every right-thinking American, under these circumstances, there can be State Hist & Nat Hist Society State House Condemns Disfranchisement of Negroes "Our country is a republic. In many communities colored Americans are unfairly deprived of the franchise. This, of course, violates the principles and guarantees of our country. It is idle to talk of freedom and liberty when through cunningly drawn laws and tolerated chicanery American citizens are deprived of their fundamental rights. When you permit a group or class to withhold the franchise from American citizens who are entitled to exercise it, you strike at the very roots of our government. Denounces Ku Klux Klan "Over and above these things, and more difficult to deal with because it is outside the law and cannot be reached, there are organizations and groups that have as their creed the banding together for the purpose of drawing distinctions against certain of our citizens, based on race or creed. As an example of this is the Ku Klux Klan, of which I have already spoken. There must be no compromise on a matter of this kind." Colonel Roosevelt also urged full education opportunities for the Negro throughout the country. Coolidge Letter Commmends Negro New York, N. Y., Jan. 9.—"The marvelous progress which the colored race in America has made since it achieved liberty" brought the congratulations of President Coolidge in a letter read recently at an Emancipation Day Celebration in the Salem Methodist Episcopal Church. The letter, addressed to Cleveland G. Allen, read: "This occasion is a most appropriate one for a survey of the marvelous progress which the colored race in America has made in the historically very brief time since it achieved liberty. It has been said often, but it is so true that it is worth repeating many more times, that there is no historic record of such accomplishment by a race of people in so brief a period. "Measured by their material achievement in the acquisition of property and substance; or by their advance in education and equipment for the full duties of citizenship or by their participation in the great task of building and defending the nation of which they are a part, the colored people of the United States have made a record which they may well regard with profound satisfaction and the utmost gratitude.' ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION ABLE PEOPLE'S PA ADO E JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, SAT DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JANUARY 19, 1924 Negroes Thrilled by Visit of Chief Executive and Wife President and First Lady of Land Go to See Sick Washington. Jan. 13.—Negro residents of the northwest section of Washington got the thrill that comes once in a lifetime today when President and Mrs. Coolidge went calling in their midst. The call was made on Arthur Brooks, Negro valet to presidents since the Taft administration, who has been confined to his home for several weeks by illness. Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge spent about fifteen minutes with Brooks, expressing their hopes for his recovery, and receiving his thanks for the flowers which have been sent him from the White House conservatories during his illness. Colored Girl Leads High School Graduating Class New York, Jan. 10th.—Miss Alberta Gaines, a young Colored girl will be the valedictorian of the graduating class of January, 1924, at the Flushing High School, leading the class of more than one hundred in scholarship record, for the entire four year course, with an average grade of 88.93 per cent. According to Warren Read, head of the English Department and faculty adviser, Miss Gertrude Manders will be salutatorian, receiving second honor with an average grade of 85.79 per cent. Bob Church Sent to Virgin Islands to Study General Conditions Washington, Jan. 7.—Robert R. Church of Memphis, Tenn., has been selected by Secretary of Labor James J. Davis as chairman of an official United States governmental commission to investigate economic conditions in the Virgin Islands, according to announcements made here. The completed delegation in addition to Chairman Church will include Cornelius Richardson of Richmond, Ind., as vice chairman; George H. Woodson of Des Moines, secretary; Jefferson H. Couge, of Delaware; Professor Charles E. Mitchell, of Institute, West Virginia, and W. H. C. Brown, an investment banker of Norfolk and Newport News. The commission will leave the United States next week and make an extensive survey of conditions in the Virgin Islands, which are said to be deplorable. Actual starvation is said to be threatening some of the natives since the destruction of the rum industry by American prohibition. GINAL IN FO Klan Treasonable And Iniquitous Says Kentucky Inter-racial Group in Fourth Annual Meeting Louisville, Ky., Jan. 15.—Vigorous protest against the injection of race prejudice into political campaigns, scathing arraignment of the Ku Klux Klan, the unveiling of the bugbear of "social equality," and the adoption of constructive plans for 1924, were among the high lights of the Fourth Kentucky Interracial Conference, held in Louisville last month. Several hundred people were in attendance, including leading men and women of both races. A two-day program of addresses and discussion was carried out. Dr. James Bond, state interracial director, reported encouraging improvement in educational, health and traveling facilities for colored people, and the constant growth of understanding and sympathy between the races. There has been close co-operation between the Interracial Commission and the state and local boards of education and health, the Y. M. C. A. and the United States Public Health Service. Among the recommendations referred to the executive committee to be worked out during the new year were the following: That the study of Negro history be put into the high schools, and the study of race relations into both high schools and colleges; that equitable participation be secured in all school bond issues; that the advantages offered by the Jeanes, Slater and Rosenwald funds be availed of as widely as possible; and that representation for the race be secured on the State Board of Health. Another important objective is the establishment of a second standardized training college for colored teachers. With regard to the klan the conference gave out the following statement: "Whereas, the purpose of the Ku Klux Klan is to stir up and make permanent race prejudice between the white and Negro races, besides the injustice done to Jews and Catholics; and "Whereas, the existence and methods of the klan are contrary to the Constitution of the United States and the state of Kentucky, in that they deny the right of every citizen to his life, liberty and property under the protection of the law and the courts, "Therefore, we commend the excellent paper of Judge Hager, read before the conference, in which he shows that the klan is treasonable, in that it is contrary to human law as set forth in the constitutions of the United States and the state of Kentucky, and is also contrary to divine law, as set forth in the Holy Scriptures." Another significant declaration was the following: "Resolved, That since neither race, the black no more than the white, wishes racial amalgamation, the misleading phrase 'social equality' should no longer be permitted to hold back the helpful hand of white people from giving fair life opportunity to the Negro." COMING "NEGRO SANHEDRIN" EVOKES INCREASING INTEREST Dr. Abram Simon Sends Approving Letter Organization of Negro College Men to Send Ten Delegates Washington, D. C., Jan. 16, 1924. An interesting and thoughtful reflection on the coming All Race Conference, or "Negro Sanhedrin," to be held in Chicago, Ill., on Feb. 12, 1924, is noted in a letter recently received by Dean Kelly Miller, chairman of the committee of arrangements, from Dr. Abram Simon, president of the Central conference of American Rabbits, and former president of the Board of Education of the District of Columbia. The letter sent by Dr. Simon follows: "Your pamphlet on 'The Negro Sanhedrin' is a sane, vigorous and ringing appeal to the best in your race. The plan presents an excellent opportunity for dynamic unity and spiritual self-expression. Your Sanhedrin need not be handicapped by the traditions that clustered about the Napoleonic Sanhedrin. Remember, please, that the Jews in their scattered Cardibears held to a vast body of doctrine, civil practices and Rabbinic legislation that were hangovers from the days of their independence before the destruction of the Jewish state by Rome. "Because of the disparity between century long practice and the entrance into the rights of French citizenship a new reading of the relation of Jewish traditions and French citizenship became a necessity. Hence, the wisdom of Napoleon's convocation of the Sanhedrin, which however was shortlived. The Sanhedrin was preceded by a 'Convention of Notables' which used the Sanhedrin as a vehicle for interpreting the Jew's newer understanding of Emancipation. You are unhampered by the traditions of an ancient legislation. You can begin afresh. The various national civic organizations can create a congress of Negro notables whose scholarship, leadership, and civic qualities will command the respect of all. Such a congress impresses me as adequate to the needs, if properly organized, without the necessity of fashioning a Sanhedrin which resembles too much of a Supreme Court, and will likely justify the prejudice of an imperium in imperio. "At any rate, I welcome the call for Negro moral self-assertion and unified dignity. I shall watch the growth of this awakening race consciousness and soul-culture with keenest interest." NEGRO COLLEGE FRaternities TO TAKE PART In addition to this evidence of the increasing interest being manifested in the movement, Dean Miller has received word from a number of important organizations throughout the country signifying their intention of sending ten delegates each to the conference. Among the various organizations sending such notification is the Alpha Phi fraternity, the first and oldest Greek Letter society organized by Negro college men. According to a statement by Dean Miller, the sending of delegates to the conference on part of this fraternity is highly significant in that it indicates that the Negro college youth is awake to the responsibilities which he must shoulder in helping to bring about proper recognition of his race in world affairs. "The Committee of Arrangements," NO.14. Dean Miller states, "is especially delighted to know that the young college men are taking hold of the movement with enthusiastic interest." COOLIDGE SENTIMENT GAINING Sentiment in favor of the re-election of President Coolidge is gaining ground steadily in Colorado, according to Charles W. Waterman, manager of the Collidge campaign in the state. "The only crystallized sentiment in the state is that in favor of Calvin Coolidge," Mr. Waterman said yesterday. "I have received word as to the political sentiment of Republican leaders throughout the state, including every county, and the sentiment is almost unanimous. Of the hundreds from whom I have heard by letter or in persons, only six have been non-committal—all the others have been enthusiastic in their support of the President." Republican leaders from all parts of Colorado are daily visitors in the Coolidge headquarters in the Equitable building, Mr. Waterman said.

WARSAW ILLINOIS 2415 WASHINGTON STREET PROMPT DELIVERY Phone Main 6544 JUSTICE SOUGHT FOR ARMY MEN WAR DEPARTMENT INTENDS TO ASK PROPER RANK ON RETIRED LIST FOR THEM. By EDWARD B. CLARK Washington.—It is the known intention of the War department to recommend to the chairman of the military affairs committees of the two houses of congress that two bills be prepared which shall correct certain injustices of the war-time period and give proper rank on the retired list of the army to certain general officers who exercised commands, or who did work, the assignment to which should have carried promotion with it. It is believed that it was the intention of the War department to do this thing a long time ago, but seemingly it felt that nothing that had an army complexion to it would be given consideration by congress or sanction by the people. "Everybody is sick of the army, navy and war," seemed to be the feeling. Recently a more kindly attitude toward the men who risked their lives to save their country has been manifest throughout the land. Today some of the organizations which have been attacking the services seemingly have come into a state of mind which enables them to look on men who are willing to make the sacrifice of their lives with something a little bit removed from scorn. It is literally true that a year and a half ago in Washington the attitude of some persons toward the armed services made it appear that they considered the uniform of their country a disgrace. Some of Those to Be Promoted. If the military committees of the house and senate shall agree to the suggestion of the War department, it is believed that the list of those who will receive promotion on the retired list will contain these names: Maj. J. Gen. Hunter A. Liggett, Maj. Gen. Robert L. Bullard, Maj. Gen. Joseph T. Dickman, Maj. Gen. Enoch H. Crowder, Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, and Cols. Lloyd M. Brett and Wilds P. Richardson. Undoubtedly there will be some others, but these are the names of soldiers who, it is known, deserve promotion and will get it if the War department can succeed in getting congress to do its duty in the case. Liggett, Bullard and Dickman successively commanded corps and armies in France. The command of a corps ought to carry with it the rank of lieutenant general. Such temporary rank was given to Liggett and Bullard, but it never was given to Dickman and no army man or civilian who knew the circumstances in the case ever understood why he was denied promotion, for his fighting work was just as strenuous as that of one of the others named and more strenuous than that of yet another. These three soldiers, as has been said, not only commanded corps in France, but later armies. An army command is supposed to carry with it the rank of general. Dickman, as a major general, commanded a corps at St. Mihiel and another in the Argonne which fought its way through to Sedan, and later he commanded the first army of occupation in Germany. Cases of Crowder and Wood. Major General Crowder, who is now Uncle Sam's ambassador to Cuba, was the man who put the draft through without friction, a work which has been commended not only by this government but by every other civilized government on earth. Crowder, prior to this time, has been recommended for a lieutenant general's rank. He, like the others who have been named, is now on the retired list. Everybody knows how the War department treated Gen. Leonard Wood during the war. He trained two of the best divisions that Uncle Sam sent overseas, and he suffered the indignity and the injustice of being ordered back from the ship, on which he was to set sail with his division, to train another division in this country. Col. Wilds P. Richardson, who was a brigadier general in France and who did fighting and administrative work of the highest order at Archangel, Russia, to which post he had been ordered at a time when things were delicately dangerous with the American forces in that section, was retired as a colonel. He has the Distinguished Service Medal and received all kinds of praise for what he had done as a brigadier general, and yet the rank on the retired list was denied him. Col. Lloyd M. Brett was a fighting brigadier general in France. His record was one of the finest to go on the books of American achievement on the other side. He went back to the rank of colonel and colonel he is today. Everybody who knew Brett's record was astounded at the action in his case. Tax Bill May Be Delayed. Indications are that the country must wait until well into February before it learns with anything like definiteness how much its tax bill is to be cut in the future. It does not seem at all likely that congress will be able even to formulate amendments to the revenue act for some time to come. Many members, many minds. Of course the fight will come as between the two schools, one of which believes that the cutting of surtaxes is a crime and the other of which believes that such a cutting will release money for industrial pur- poses and will benefit the people much more than they would benefit through the receipt by the Treasury department of surtaxes as at present imposed. Nobody in congress is opposed to the cutting of the income tax percentages which are being paid by wage and salary earners, who as for single men, make more than $1,000 a year, and as for married men make more than $2,000 a year. Everybody in congress desires or pretends to desire that the man of comparatively small income shall be relieved of a part of his burdens. There are certain elements in congress, however, which insist, as they put it, that wealth shall continue to be taxed at a high rate. It is an old story, of course, but it may be said that the members of congress who think that surtaxes should be cut are insistent in statement of belief that much money which otherwise would be put into taxes is now invested in tax-exempt securities. This money, they say, if no longer taxed would be put into industries, give employment to men and help to reduce the cost of living. Senate Debate May Be Long. Senate Debate May Be Long. It is certain now that some tax reduction plan will be put through congress, but it may be the summer's heat will be stifling the city of Washington before the senate gets through with discussion of the matter. It is understood that all but about ten of the Republicans in the senate are satisfied with the Mellon tax reduction plan as proposed, that is, satisfied to put it through as it stands, even if they do not entirely agree with the political wisdom of attempting to legislate on taxes at this time. The few Republicans in the senate who will fight the Mellon plan, if it shall come over from the house of representatives in the form proposed by the secretary of the treasury, are opponents of reduction of surtaxes. Ten senators can keep a debate running for months if they are so inclined. So long as any man wants to talk on the subject, the senate cannot come to a vote. So it is that compromises may be forced in the senate in order to secure a vote at all, compromises which may change the whole face of the legislation. Naturally the Republica majority desires to put tax reduction through as a measure approved by all of the Republicans, but it is becoming evident that this cannot be done. The Democratic party is just as anxious to support tax reduction as is the Republican party. The chances are that when the bill is put to a vote in the senate the majority of the Democrats will vote "Aye." The Trensury department has many expert accountants in its service. They unquestionably were put to work to supply the material for the outlining of the Mellon plan. Congress is doing a lot of figuring on its own account, but whether it is expert figuring or not is a matter later to be determined. Senate May Kill Bonus Bill. While the fate of the bonus bill is undecided the members of congress who are figuring must take account of how much the bonus payments will amount to if the bill shall become a law, and how much tax reduction can be made and yet allow for the payments to the ex-soldiers. Opinion on the fate of the bonus bill still is on the shifting sands. As has been said in Washington letters many times, the former service men have been certain that their cause had votes enough in the senate to negative the presidential veto of the measure. The leaders of the senate are on record as concurring in this belief of the ex-service men. Another change has come over the face of the situation, however, and now it is declared that the senate will sustain the President's veto, a veto which it generally is assumed is certain. During the holiday season, of course, the majority of the members of congress have been absent from the capitol, a good many of them having gone to their distant homes, but a certain number were compelled to remain here in order to work out the legislative program for the immediate future. It may be that congress will do nothing, but preparation for a do-nothing congress is just about as tard work as preparing for a do-something congress. Proposals for legislation must be given working attention, even if every measure seems to be doomed to failure. Boy Scouts and the Church. Boy Scouts and the Church. That the church is the frequent recipient of scout good turms is shown in the scores of reports which reach the National Boy Scout council. Among such good turms are: Conducting the aged, blind and crippled to and from services, leveling off the church ground, caring for the lawns and building, sewing up the carpets, mending hymn books, planting trees and shrubbery, distributing church papers, putting up church notices, recruiting Sunday school pupils, helping as ushers and at bazaars and socials, and making city-wide religious surveys. A Scout Is Thrifty He does not wantonly destroy property. He works faithfully, wastes nothing, and makes the best use of his opportunities. He saves his money so that he may pay his own way, be generous to those in need, and helpful to worthy objects. He may work for pay, but must not receive tips for courtesies or good turns.—Scout Law Number 9.

DENVER'S CRIME WAVE AND SOME RESULTS THE experience of Denver in the present alarming crime wave that is rocking the city from one end to another is not dissimilar in either frequency or degree, to what is going on in most large cities of the country. The biting cold of winter seems to afford ample cause for the stalking forth of pick pockets, hold-up men, thieves and robbers of small and high degree, and not infrequently a murder is added to their lists of crimes. It is a strange bit of psychology and yet one backed up by statistics, that fifty per cent more crimes are committed during the three winter months than during the rest of the entire year. For some time Denver residents have been living in a practical state of terrorism. Some of the most daring crimes of the nation have been pulled off here, showing the desperate character of those engaged in the outlawry. The Denver police force and all law enforcing bodies have been co-operating to stem the tide of criminality so securely gripping our city as to cause a spirit of timidity to possess those who are law abiding and peaceful in their pursuits. Quite naturally too, the criminally inclined are to be found among all races and kinds of people. In one of the most daring of recent hold-ups a member of the fair sex was apparently the "master" mind. In view of the extraordinary condition existing here just now, all good citizens will applaud the efforts of Chief Williams and Captain of Detectives Rinker in their efforts to round up those who frequent places that breed crime and thus curtail as far as possible the lawlessness of our community. Just at present it is decidedly unsafe for a citizen to step out from home at night unprotected and especially does this apply to women. To add to the honor of it all, a kidnapper of young girls, ranging in age from 8 to 14 years, has appeared and exhibiting a boldness of activity that is all but believable. So it is not to be wondered that officers on duty have been given orders to "shoot to kill." This is giving wide latitude to policemen and if modified by the use of common sense, carries with it a minimum of danger to the peaceful citizen. There is a question however, whether or not every man who dons a blue uniform and is vested with authority, has a sufficiency of mental balance to properly and sensibly interpret the orders of his chief. Manifestly it is bad enough for citizens whose business calls them upon the streets at night, to be slugged or maybe shot by a foot-pad or hold-up man. The danger to the public, instead of being decreased, will be increased many fold if hair trigger officers with hair trigger guns fail in a calm comprehension of the orders given them. We want to see a complete rounding up of all the criminal element regardless of race or nationality, and all vice dens should be closed once for all. And we also want to see it possible for our citizens of good repute to walk to or from church or any other place without either their liberties or life placed in jeopardy. A WORD TO DENVER RÉPUBLICANS FACTIONAL chasm of wide and destructive proportions yawns threateningly within the ranks of Colorado Republicans today, and unless heeded and approached through an avenue of sanity, the party's chances for success at the polls in November will be greatly imperiled. This is an important election year and Colorado, with two U. S. senators to elect has an excellent chance of going Republican unless factional differences extend beyond the bounds of common horse sense. As matters stand today we believe that Calvin Coolidge will be the next President of the U. S. He appears almost unbeatable at this time both for his party's nomination and for the election. Colorado must have a finger in the pie. Our state contributed in large volume to Republican success in 1920 and we have fared well at the hands of the national administration. But what of the present year? The columns of a local daily Tuesday morning carried a story to the effect that there would be two distinct Republican county headquarters opened in Denver during the 1924 presidential campaign, and that each would claim an official status in the matter. Thus it would appear that the Republican party of Colorado at the very outset of the campaign, is threatened with a split in its ranks in the very heart of its chief voting strength. THE COLORADO STATESMAN is primarily interested in the success of the Republican party and so has no quarrel with either faction. We do believe, however, that an unwise course is being pursued by both and we solemnly offer the advice, "gentlemen get together." We are the more prone to offer this advice since, for some inexplainable reason, white Republicans are forever inclined to the view that colored voters should never have a difference of opinion, should always be of one political mind and swallow all political cure-alls without question. A little factional difference among Negroes is invariably magnified to ten times its actual size and especially is this true if the matter of patronage is paramount at the time. There have been countless incidents where some solemnly pledged positions, as a reward for party loyalty, were conveniently denied us solely on the ground that we could not "get together." Of course such a contention was the veriest subterfuge and we have often condemned it as such. We have contended that colored voters do not all look through the same political glasses, nor eat from the same political table any more so than any other race; and we too, may have a difference of opinion as to procedure within the party ranks. We do not always see alike as to men and measures. The eternal cry and stern injunction of our fellow Republicans of the white race in such an hour is for us to "get together." So far as the issues of the 1924 campaign are concerned up to now, we are pretty much together on certain fundamentals, and if the Republican organization desires to set an example at all worth while, it will stop its petty bickering and seek a harmonious coalition of all forces to meet the common enemy in November. The Democratic party of Colorado is in a bad way, torn by dissension and threatened with socialistic and communistic invasions. A golden chance for victory confronts the Republican party, and it remains to be seen whether it will be taken advantage of, or fitered away by a needles squabble as to "who's who" in Denver county. Lincoln's birthday is being looked to as a day for the gathering of Republican clans in Denver for the purpose, it is said, of exchanging ideas, stimulating party fealty and getting up steam for the approaching campaign. The general plan is good and we hope splendid results will grow out of the gathering. But it will be very unfortunate if visiting republicans should catch something of the Denver spirit and return to their homes with factional bitterness raging in their hearts. Our chief point, however, is that our white Republican friends can learn much from the colored brother in a harmonious perspective of the approaching election. Again we say to you. "Gentlemen, get together." No Complicated Scheme of Any Permanent Value in Establishing Agriculture By CALVIN COOLIDGE, in Message to Congress. NO COMPLICATED scheme of relief, no plan for government fixing of prices, no resort to the public treasury, will be of any permanent value in establishing agriculture. Simple and direct methods put into operation by the farmer himself are the only real sources for restoration. Indirectly the farmer must be relieved by a reduction of national and local taxation. He must be assisted by the reorganization of the freight-rate structure which could reduce charges on his production. To make this fully effective there ought to be railroad consolidations. Cheaper fertilizers must be provided. He must have organization. The acreage of wheat is too large. Unless we can meet the world market at a profit, we must stop raising for export. Organization would help to reduce acreage. Diversification is necessary. Such loans as are wisely needed to assist buying stock and other materials to start in this direction should be financed through a government agency as a temporary and emergency expedient. The remaining difficulty is the disposition of exportable wheat. I do not favor the permanent interference of the government in this problem. That probably would increase the trouble by increasing production. But it seems feasible to provide government assistance to exports, and authority should be given the War Finance corporation to grant, in its discretion, the most liberal terms of payment for fats and grains exported for the direct benefit of the farm. Vaudeville Is the Best Part of the Whole Show Business; It's Clean By FRED STONE, Popular American Actor. Thank you for welcoming us home. It is home here. Thank God, I'm from vaudeville; that I'm still a vaudevillian. And I thank God for it, because it's the best part of the whole show business. What success we have had—Dorothy and her mother and I—is only because we gave people what my years in vaudeville showed me people really want—clean fun. Vaudeville is clean. I can't say the same for any other type of show on Broadway or any other show street. Some people make a holler about playing Sunday night shows. They better look at the shows that are playing all the week on Broadway. There are a lot of shows on Broadway that have got to be cleaned up, not on Sunday night, but every night of the week. You can't be good on Sunday and bad on Monday, Tuesday, twice on Wednesday and Saturday, and every other day of the week. I'm dead serious about this. I love my profession. I've given forty years to it. And now I've given to it the greatest treasure a man ever possesses, my little daughter. Do you wonder I want to see this profession clean? Among the First Four Fundamentals of Our Life Music Stands Fourth By MARK P. CAMPBELL, Pres't Nat'l Ass'n Piano Mfrs. Among the first four fundamentals of life music stands fourth—food first, then shelter, then clothing, then music. The war proved that war necessarily reduces life to its barest elements. To make fighters out of men, they must be fed, dressed, quartered and kept cheerful, mentally alert, quick-witted. There's where music came in. Marches to take departing troops down Fifth avenue, to keep them cheered up on the transports, to send them singing toward the front, and to brace them up after the grilling hell of the trenches. Soldiers will follow the command of the bugle note where a shouted word would die on the officer's lips. Splendid work is being done today by that department of the United States Chamber of Commerce known as the bureau for the advancement of music. Through this bureau 200 American cities have now held and enjoyed music weeks, and now, so important has this work become, Music week hereafter will be a national affair. In May of each year national Music week will be observed in every city and town in the country. Music, in my opinion, as a force for human welfare is next to the Gospel itself. Women, the Secret-Society, Business and Male Incomprehensibility Most women, I think, take this secret-society business as merely another instance of the incomprehensibility of the male. They can understand the peacock's tail, and the biologic urge for the male to make himself beautiful in order to attract a mate. But what they see is men making themselves not physically beautiful but physically ridiculous; a phenomenon which can have nothing to do with biologic urges. If men were unconsciously attempting to be attractive, they would abolish the hideous uniform of the "business suit," to which they have condemned themselves; and they would never, never wear aprons over cashmere trousers. There is something still left, it seems to me, for the folklorist to explain. Let him stop gathering charms from the Kentucky mountaineers and the New Jersey "pinies," and watch his hard-headed fellow-citizens the next time they parade in full regalia. What goes on in the tangle of the male mind no ratiocinating female would presume to guess; and women pass this over like so many other manifestations of the mystery which is Man. "Whatever the King Did Pleased All the People"—II Samuel 3:36 By FORMER PREMIER ASQUITH, in "Genesis of the War." What is to be said of the kaiser's subjects—not an ignorant and backward tribe, just emerging from the superstitions of barbarism or the yoke of serfdom, but in many directions among the intellectual pioneers of Europe, who, after passing through the stage of a somewhat sloppy and misty idealism, had, in face of enormous difficulties, achieved political unity and were showing themselves every year capable of holding their own, and more than their own, in all the practical activities—industrial, maritime, financial—of the competitive modern world? How came such a people to place their fortunes, during the lifetime of a whole generation, at the mercy of the moods and whims, the gestures and phrases, of such a ruler? It might almost be said of him, during the greater part of his reign, as it was of David: "Whatsoever the king did pleased all the people." (II Samuel 3:36.) A. H. PETER H. Curtis M.

Entering the service in 1886 as a Jan- itor when the late Robt. W. Speer was postmaster, Mr. Burdine soon gave evidences of exceptional aptitude and devotion to duty that won for him a place as clerk in the city division. He has been in continuous service of Un- cle Sam ever since and has seen the postal affairs of Denver grow from its frontier town dimensions to its present massive quarters under Postmaster Frank L. Dodge. Mr. _Burdine is a worthy citizen and richly deserves the ease and comfort that will come to him in his older days. WALLACE SIMPSON POST AMERI- CAN LEGION STAGES PA- TRIOTIC EVENT ‘The Wallace Simpson Post of the American Legion pulled off a “big noise” at Masonic hall, Twenty-eighth and Welton, Tuesday night, that was a hummer. With James Franklin, J. M. Wil- liamson, Ben Hooper and others at the helm, an evening of splendid speech ‘making, music, boxing, ete. took place that was highly entertain- ing to the packed house that greeted the boys. The Wallace Simpson Post is doing a great work and all Denver citizens will applaud their every suc- cess in recent undertakings. Many prominent citizens were present and delivered addresses, paying high trib- ute to the worth and valor of our boys whose record of service over- seas and at home standg as an endur- ing monument to the race. Among those who spoke were: Dr. S. A. Huff, Dr. C. F. Holmes, Dr. 'T. E. McClain, Dr. Westbrook, Victor Walker, Charles Meyers and Captain Campbell. Lieutenant Earl W.

Church about 12 o'clock Mon- day night, J. P. Perkins, one of the most highly respected citizens of Den- yer und a prominent church worker, was shot and seriously wounded by Patrolman Roy H. Robinson at a point near 2842 Washington street. Perkins was taken to the county hospital, where he now lies in a precarious con- dition, Accounts of the affair differ and as no direct statement has as yet come from Perkins, it is somewhat shrouded in mystery by the alleged ex- planation of the city authorities, One thing is certain, however, Mr. Perkins has long been a resident of Denver, and for many years has held a very responsible position with the Neustet- er Dry Goods Company. His record is clear and his many friends have un- pounded faith in him, He has taken an active part in all civic movements, an ardent church worker and an en- thusiastic booster of the N. A. A. C. P. THE COLORADO STATESMAN stands squarely with him, hook, line and sinker, and will continue to do so until something more damaging than has yet come out appears to stain his excellent record of citizenship in Den- yer, Those who called upon him im- mediately after the incident and ten- dered him aid were Dr. J, H.

WATERMAN APPOINTED COOLIDGE MANAGER FOR COLORADO Prominent Attorney to Guide Presi- dent's Campaign for Republican Nomination Hon, Chas, W, Waterman, prominent Colorado attorney and one of the fore- most of western Republican leaders, has been selected as campaign man- ager for President Calyin Coolidge in Colorado. No better selection could have been mad for Mr. Waterman not only stands high in his party's coun- sels but his sterling character and In- tegrity inspires wholesale confidence in anything he may undertake. His efforts in behalf of the nomination of the President are bound to be of much force for Mr. Waterman thoroughly understands Colorado Republicans and in turn they fully understand him. It is certain that Colorado will send a delegation’ to Cleveland favorable to the President for his policies as ’so far outlined appeals to the Colorado Idea of what the Republican party should stand for. Mr, Waterman has many times been the reciplent of honors’ at the hands of the party and his leader- ship and ability are unquestioned. It is our belief that a wise selection has been made by those interested in the political fortunes of the President.

Scott C. Bone declared in his annual report. Development was pushed at unprecedented speed, he said, with record production of wealth from various activities. Governor Bone listed President Harding's visit and those of preceding and accompanying delegations of congressmen and press representatives as among the assets of incalculable value which had been added to the territory during the year. Recommendations made in his report for 1922 were renewed by Governor Bone, among them being: The placing of the affairs of Alaska under one department head at Washington and the substitution of a coordinated and centralized system of administration for the present inefficient bureaucratic system at the earliest possible date. An appropriation of $300,000 to supplement a fund of $150,000 heretofore authorized for the erection of a capitol or administration building. Adequate provision for the operation and upkeep of the Alaska railroad, and for the building of branch lines. An appropriation of $1,500,000 annually for the building of roads and trails in the interior. PRESIDENT COOLIDGE and Secretary of Agriculture Henry C. Wallace are not in full accord on the program for agricultural relief. The difference of opinion was brought out prominently when Secretary Wallace, in the face of the President's recommendations on the subject, made public his comprehensive report on the wheat situation in which he advocated the creation of a government export corporation to buy surplus wheat and market it abroad. President Coolidge, who was well informed in advance of Secretary Wallace's proposal, did see fit to recommend it in his message to congress. The President, it is declared, regards Secretary Wallace's program as too drastic. While the President said in his message that he believed it to be feasible to provide government assistance to exports, and urged that authority be given the War Finance corporation to grant liberal terms on loans for exports of fats and grains, he failed to give approval to the use of government funds for the direct purchase of surplus farm products as proposed by THE Interior department is a collection of heterogeneous bureaus and offices that were placed under control of the secretary of the interior because there was apparently no other department into which they would fit. It was created to take care of the work and problems arising from the vast acquisition of territory following the Mexican war and the Louisiana Purchase. It was intended to have charge of all matters relating to the internal affairs of the country, but many such affairs were lodged in other departments and have stayed there. The secretary of the interior is charged with supervision of public business relating to the general land office, reclamation service, ecological survey, bureau of mines, office of Indian affairs, patent office, bureau of pensions, bureau of education, National park service and certain hospitals and eleemosynary institutions. He has supervision of the construction of the government railroad in Alaska and in a measure over the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii. Though it is entirely a civil agency NEARLY twoscore bills of local interest were put in the hopper of the house. They cover a wide range of subjects. Perhaps the most important measures were those designed to change the fiscal relations between the federal and District governments, a proposal for permanent regulatory rent legislation and abolition of the public utilities commission, with a return to 5-cent street car fare in the District. Representative Reed of West Virginia introduced the commissioner's bill providing for the gasoline tax and automobile tag reciprocity with Maryland. Representative Underhill of Massachusetts presented a bill proposing punishment of reckless automobile driving by jail sentences. Seven bills dealing with the extension of the District's park system and enlargement of the botanic garden were introduced by Representative Langley of Kentucky, chairman of the house committee on public buildings and grounds The vesting in the Department of Commerce of complete authority over the fisheries of Alaska. The consolidation of all law-enforcing agencies in Alaska under the Department of Justice. A colonization plan to be operative in connection with the Alaska railroad, with priority rights to lands freely granted to Alaska soldiers of the World war and their dependents. Allotment of a fair percentage, at least one-half, of the net revenues derived from the Priblof islands, which are in Alaskan waters, to the general fund of the territory. The report says, among other things: "The season of 1923, in bringing thousands of visitors to Alaska, emphasizes decidedly that a systematic development of tourist facilities offers great immediate opportunities for Alaska. The American and Canadian steamship lines carried 20,089 passengers to Alaska from January 1 to August 31, 1923. Of these it is estimated that two-thirds were transients or tourists and the number exceeds all records. The previous year 5,537 tourists came to Alaska. "Alaska requires conservation—favors it and welcomes it, and gives steadfast support to every practical safeguard, existent or proposed, necessary to prevent reckless exploitation in any direction in the development of the territory." his secretary of agriculture Wallace. Secretary Wallace in his report gave the following as chief features of his program: Creation of an export corporation to buy surplus wheat and market it abroad, any loss incurred to be assessed against the entire crop of the following season. A temporary reduction in freight rates of 25 per cent. Creation of a commission to study freight rates with a view to a readjustment relieving the farmer of undue burdens. Reduction in wheat acreage and diversification of crops by the farmer. Reduction in taxes by the states on farm lands. Secretary Wallace holds that the sale or gift of a substantial part of our surplus wheat to countries which are not able to buy, and which would, therefore, take it out of the ordinary channels of trade and competition, would unquestionably have a helpful effect upon domestic prices of wheat, provided larger tariff protection were given. the Department of the Interior spends each year $250,000,000 of the taxpayers' money on account of past wars. This sum goes to the 256,918 soldiers and the 290,098 dependent survivors of soldiers of the wars from 1812 to and through the Spanish-American war. This is exclusive of another half billion which is being paid out by the veterans' bureau, an independent agency. Total expenditures of the Interior department in the fiscal year 1923 were $354,623,069, larger than those for any other branch of the government except the veterans' bureau and the War department. The department has 5,551 employees in Washington, 1,200 of them at the Government Hospital for the Insane. The field force is 12,942, making a grand total of employees of 18,493. The department, however, has one money-making branch. It is the patient office, which was transferred from the State department. It has revenues of nearly $3,000,000 a year, and expenditures are $300,000 less. The office employs 1,001 officials and clerks in Washington. Among the bills were many that failed enactment in the last congress. The pure milk bill, clothing the District health officer with broad powers to safeguard the milk supply, was reintroduced by Representative Lampert. Mr. Lampert also introduced a 5-cent car fare bill, a District suffrage bill, a measure which would make the rent law a permanent statute at least until May 22, 1926, when the President would have the discretion of either suspending or continuing the law, and a bill proposing that Lincoln's birthday be a legal holiday in the District. The workmen's compensation bill for the District, which failed to pass in the Sixty-seventh congress, was reintroduced by Representative Fitzgerald of Ohio. Representative French of Idaho introduced a bill for the protection of foodstuffs in the District, and Representative Smith of the same state a bill to regulate the practice of osteopathy in the District. SCIENTISTS WARN AGAINST SHOE DYES Several Cases of Aniline Poisoning Reported. That shoes dyed with materials containing aniline or nitrobenzine will poison the wearer unless they are allowed to dry at least twenty-four hours before being worn, is pointed out in an article on "Poisoning From Shoe Dyes," written by Prof. A. S. Loevenhart, chairman of the department of pharmacology at the University of Wisconsin, and C. W. Muehlberger, state toxicologist, for the Chemical Bulletin. During the last six months several cases of aniline poisoning due to the improper use of leather dyes have come to our attention," Doctor Loevenhart and Mr. Muehlberger write. "Similar cases involving nitrobenzine have been reported. In such instances the poison is absorbed through the skin when shoes are worn very soon after having been dyed." A person affected by such shoe-dye poison becomes blue within a few hours after putting on a pair of freshly dyed shoes, and the blueness is particularly noticeable at the lips and fingernails. Gradually the whole face and body assume a bluish or purplish hue, which may be accompanied by nausea, dizziness and headache, and there is also a general physical weakness. The effect of the poison gradually disappears after the shoes are removed and in several days the skin assumes its normal color. That some less toxic solvent could be substituted for aniline or nitrobenzine, and be as satisfactory, is the writers' opinion. "The present method of dyeing shoes is a constant menace to public health. There are shoe-shining parlors which advertise 'Shoes Dyed While You Wait,' and there have been reports of cases where the dye was applied to shoes while they were being worn. Dyes containing aniline or nitrobenzine should be allowed to dry at least twenty-four hours before the shoes are worn. "The danger of such poisoning might be reduced if the manufacturers were required to place warning labels and adequate directions upon the containers in which such dyes are sold. The only way the present method of dyeing shoes may be made safe, and 'foolproof' is by removing the highly dangerous poisons which are readily absorbed through the skin." Machine Weaves Baskets. There is a machine for weaving baskets which, it is claimed, has greatly simplified the making of wicker goods. The weft is set up and made to revolve against stationary shuttles. The wicker is wrapped on spools at the side of the loom and threaded into it by means of a tension wheel. Before starting the loom on its rotary motion the stakes, or weft, of the basket are placed in a permanent position. As the machine revolves the warp is drawn from the spools on the side of the loom over the tension wheel and into the stationary shuttles. Just before the revolving stakes reach the shuttle, star-shaped wheels pass them alternately to either side of the shuttle and thus interlace the warp. As the warp leaves the shuttle mechanical fingers grasp it and pull it down to its proper position. The fingers are operated by cams that permit them to pass behind the shuttles. With this machine a man can produce a perfect basket in 20 minutes. Religious Experience Joseph was a solemn-eyed, spiritual-looking child. "Nurse," he said one day, leaving his blocks and laying his hand gently on her knee, "nurse, is this God's day?" "No, dear," said the nurse, "this is not Sunday, it is Thursday." "I'm so sorry," he said sadly, and went back to his blocks. The next day and the next, in his serious manner, he asked the same question, and the nurse tearfully said to the cook: "That child is too good for this world." On Sunday the question was repeated, and the nurse with a sob in her voice said: "Yes, Lamble, this is God's day." "Then where is the funny paper?" he demanded—Hurper's Magazine. No Flowers. Please. A woman with a large London house used to arrange her own flowers and throw stalks and so on into an unused fireplace. She had, however, a most meticulous housemaid, who insisted on clearing the debris from the fireplace on every possible occasion. After a time the mistress went to the country on a visit, and on her return found a notice pinned above the grate: "No flowers, by request." Revised Daily.

"Well, then, where shall I find the very last ones?" insisted Mollie. "Ask your mother," said her father. "She has them every time." He was notoriously mean. One evening he went to see "Hamlet" at the local theater. "It was just like a sermon," he said to a friend afterwards, "and it made me think I ought to ha' done more." "Yes," said his friend, "and you've done a good few in your time, too." MEXICAN TROOPS WILL ENTER U. S. BORDER STATES WILL ALLOW MEXICAN FEDERALS TO CROSS BOUNDARIES ARMY TO CROSS STATES OBREGON ASKS STATE DEPART MENT FOR PERMISSION TO EN- TER UNITED STATES Washington.—The State Department announced that the government of President Obregon had requested permission for a detachment of the Mexican army to pass from Naco, Ariz., to some point in Texas, where they will re-enter Mexican territory for service against the revolutionists. The American government has made request for such passage of troops of the governors of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. In a statement the State Department said: "The Mexican government through its embassy here, has requested permission of this government for the passage of a detachment of the Mexican army, together with animals and other material which usually accompanies such a command, from Naco, Ariz., to some point in Texas, where they will re-enter Mexican territory for service in regions in Mexico where American lives and interests are being threatened with grave danger by the forces in revolt against the Mexican government. These troops will not be armed but their arms and ammunition will accompany them as baggage. "This government has transmitted this request to the governors of Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, and has received favorable replies from the governors of Arizona and New Mexico. This government looks favorably upon the request of the Mexican government and in case a favorable reply is received from the governor of Texas, this request will be granted. "Similar permission has been extended in the past, the last occasion being in October, 1915, and again in November, 1915, when the de facto government of Mexico, headed by Mr. Carranza was allowed to transport Mexican troops from the Texas border to the state of Sonora, Mexico, through the United States, where American lives and property were in serious danger from the operations of Mexican revolutionary bands." Oil Strike Made at Craig Craig, Colo.—Oil fever struck Craig. Excitement in this town is intense, following the circulation of reports that the Texas Production Company has struck oil in its well, sixteen miles south of Craig, on the Hamilton dome, Citizens, stopping work, braved the cold to rush out to the well, hoping to see oil shooting into the air in carload lots, and others formed in line to storm the company officials here to question them but such investigations proved unavailing. An air of secrecy has been thrown about the entire matter here and at the well, and the exact status of the bore is in doubt. Federals Defeat Mexican Rebels Washington—Mexican federal forces have defeated the revolutionists in a hard battle at Tepeaca, which resulted in reducing "a strong element of the rebel army to impotence," the Mexican embassy said in a statement based on official advices from Mexico City. General Wood Wins Court Fight General Wood Wins Court Pight Manila.—Mandamus proceedings instituted by leaders of the Democratic party in an effort to compel Gov. Gen. Leonard Wood and other officials to make public details of expenditures from the $500,000 annual independence fund have been dismissed by the Insular Supreme Court. Besides General Wood, the mandamus petition named President Quezon of the Insular Senate; Speaker Roxas of the House, the Independence Commission, the Insular Auditor and the entire legislature. Five Dead in New York Storm Five Dead in New York Storm New York.—One of the most severe January wind and rain storms that has struck New York City and vicinity in years subsided after causing five deaths, considerable property loss and damage to small shipping in the harbor and along the New Jersey coast. Four men and a woman were missing after the sinking of a barge off Long Branch, N. J. The wind reached a velocity of seventy miles an hour. Three of the dead were killed in traffic accidents due to driving rain. Muscle Shoals Offer Made Washington.—Secretary Weeks has received a joint offer made by three Southern power companies proposing a fifty-year lease to them of the governments power projects at Muscle Shoals, Alabama, for which $100,000,-000 in rentals would be paid during that period. The companies propose under the lease to construct transmission lines for power to provide 100,-000 horsepower at cost for use in the manufacture of fertilizer at Muscle Shoals.

AMBER MARMALADE IS GOOD DURING WINTER AMBER MARMALADE IS GOOD DURING WINTER Citrus Fruits Are Handy to Replenish Stock of Sweets. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) When the supply of preserves made from summer berries and fruits begins to run low, the stock of sweets may be easily replenished by the use of the citrus fruits. A delicious marmalade can be made by combining an orange a grapefruit and a lemon of average size, with sugar and water. The following recipe has been standardized by the United States Department of Agriculture: Amber Marmalade From Orange, Grapefruit and Lemon. 1 orange, weighing about 7 ounces 1 grapefruit, weighing about 1 pound 3 ounces Select especially tender, clean, yellow, smooth-skinned fruit, free from all blemishes. The thick-skinned varieties are better for this purpose than are those having a thin, tough peel, since this thin peel is likely to become still tougher, after cooking with sugar and acid. Wash the fruit well. Remove the skins and slice them very thin. Cook this peel in a quart of cold water, three times for five minutes each, discarding the water after each boiling. Cut the fruit pulp into tann slices, removing the seeds and "rag" and combine this sliced pulp with the parboiled skins. To each weight or measure of fruit add three times its own weight or measure of water and boll 25 minutes. Then add equal weight or measure of sugar and boil rapidly for 25 minutes longer, or until the jelly stage is reached. Put at once into scalded jelly glasses, and when cold cover with paraffin. The amounts of fruit mentioned above make about five pints of marmalade (12 to 14 glasses). The marmalade should have a clear amber color, not at all of a brownish cast; it should be jellied throughout, and the strips of peel which it contains should be transparent and tender. When larger amounts of fruit are used, longer periods of cooking will be necessary before the jelly stage is reached, because of the larger amount of water which requires to be evaporated by boiling. SEASONING SALADS IS EASY Imagination, Ingenuity and Supply of Ingredients Are Chief Requisites. Recipes for salad dressing may be found in any good cook book. Recipes are not needed for combining fruits or vegetables into palatable salads, says the United States Department of Agriculture, Imagination, ingenuity and a good seasoning shelf are the chief requisites for success in salad making. One must be able to imagine the taste of various materials in combination, and to reject those that would for some reason conflict. A little ingenuity in experimenting, however, may bring out unexpected and pleasing flavors. The seasoning shelf may contain a number of ingredients which give zest to milder flavors.

Orient Cool three tables teaspoonful of spoonful of soda, rind. Mix, m with almonds An unusually progressive housewife of Albemarle county, Virginia, has evolved a totally new idea in kitchen arrangement. She worked out the plan after consulting the county and state home demonstration agents, who reported what she achieved to the United States Department of Agriculture. Instead of placing her sink, cabinet, towel drawers, work counter and rack for small implements along the kitchen walls, this woman had a large square table built in the middle of her kitchen, with a sink and drainboard on one side of it and drawers and cupboards on the other. Lengthwise down the middle of the table between the sink and the cabinet a rack is erected such as one sees in a hotel kitchen. From this rack are suspended the egg-beaters, spoons, skimmers, ladles, cake turners, and other small ware that can be hung. Above it is an eight-inch shelf for other implements which cannot be conveniently placed on hooks. A slatted shelf below the sink accommodates the dishpan and large cooking utensils, as well as cleaning materials. On the work side of the table is kept a high stool, on which the housekeeper can sit in comfort when preparing fruit or vegetables, or doing other work at which she does not need to stand MAKE BAKING-POWDER BISCUIT WITH MILK MAKE BAKING-POWDER BISCUIT WITH MILK Government Recipe Gives Plan for Substituting Milk. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) In many recipes for hot breads and cake, sour milk or buttermilk and baking soda may be substituted for sweet milk or water and baking powder, or vice versa. To guard against an excess of soda, which causes a yellow color in the bread and a less agreeable flavor, use a scant one-half, level teaspoonful of soda to every cupful of sour milk. The soda may be sifted with the other dry ingredients, as is recommended when using baking powder, insuring thorough mixing. In using either baking powder or sour milk and soda, all materials should be cool, especially the liquid, and in case of pastry and biscuits it is well also to keep the shortening cold, although it is not always necessary. The mixing should be done as quickly as possible, especially after the baking powder is moistened, to minimize the loss of leavening gas. Biscuits should be rolled, cut, and placed in the pans as soon as possible after mixing. If necessary, they may stand in the pans before baking with comparative safety if kept cold. The United States Department of Agriculture gives the recipe below for plain baking-powder biscuit which can be made with either sweet or sour milk. Plain Baking-Powder Biscuit. 2 cupfuls sifted 2 tablespoonfuls flour shortening 2 cupuils sitted 2 tablespoonfuls flour shortening % teaspoonful salt ½ to % cupuil 2 teaspoonful baking powder 11 quid (milk water or equal parts of each) Sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Cut or chop the shortening into the flour with one knife or two, until well distributed. Finally, if necessary, rub the mixture Plain Baking-Powder Biscuits. between the tips of the fingers until it is like a meal. Add just enough cold liquid to make a soft dough that can be handled on the board, mixing with a knife if possible. Mix quickly and handle the dough very lightly. Place it on a floured board, roll to the thickness of one-half inch, and cut into desired shape. Place the biscuits on a baking sheet or in shallow tins and bake in a rather hot oven ten to fifteen minutes or until thoroughly baked. SAUCES FOR MEATS AND FISH There is an art in the preparation of sauces and a science in combining flavors that is only discovered by the cook who has the touch, the taste and the consciousness of the importance of good cooking and serving. A French sauce is a thing of surpassing delicacy. It is expensive, too, for it takes time to collect ingredients and prepare them. No chef who smokes or indulges in alcoholic drinks can ever attain perfection in sauce making. One must have a very sensitive sense of taste. There are few who can equal the French in the making of sauces. The flavoring or seasoning is the thing most conspicuous. Sauces are a thickened fluid flavored in various ways with vegetables, meat boned and spiced with all sorts of herbs and aromatics. The thickening consists of starch in some form, either flour, cornstarch, arrowroot, prepared in the form of a roux, which may be any of these cooked in butter; for brown roux the flour is browned. Egg yolks are also used as thickening. The liquid for the sauces may be stock, milk or butter, or in cold sauces, oil. The vegetable flavors are onions, leeks, garlic, peppers, green, red and hot; carrots, turnip, celery and mushrooms. Zest is sometimes added from the rind of lemons or oranges. Herbs and aromatics are thyme, marjoram, bay leaves, parsley and chevril. The bones used for the sauces for ment are preferably veal bones, crushed and roasted. Fish heads and fish bones are used for fish sauces. We have a basic sauce prepared with flour or starch of some form with butter, milk or stock, called white sauce. The brown sauce is prepared by browning the flour, or in an emergency adding color in the form of caramel. Tomato sauce is prepared much like soup. The object of all sauces is to serve a savory fluid appropriate to the dry dish with which it is to be eaten. A collection of small cakes or cookies is always an addition to any cooky jar. Nuremburgs. — Take one pint of sugar, honey and molasses; one tablespoonful of butter and one of lard, two tablespoonfuls of soda, one pint of sour cream, one half cupful of candied orange peel, lemon peel and citron finely nutmeats, one tablespoonful each of cloves and cinnamon. Mix and warm the molasses, honey, sugar, butter and lard; add the soda in the sour cream. Mix all the other ingredients and add flour until a stiff dough is formed—a little stiffer than that used for cookies. Let stand until morning. Roll out and cut into any desired shapes. Frost with powdered sugar moistened with lemon juice. Pack in a jar and keep a month. This recipe makes about seven pounds of cookies. Pfeffernuesse—Take one pint each of corn syrup and New Orleans molasses, one-half pound of shortening, one-half pound of brown sugar, two and one-half pounds of flour, one teaspoonful of soda, two teaspoonfuls of cinnamon, one-half teaspoonful of cloves, one-fourth of a pound each of almonds and citron chopped fine, one lemon, rind and juice. Warm the syrup, add the shortening and lemon juice and the remaining ingredients, the soda mixed with the flour. Roll into little balls the size of marbles, brush with white of egg and bake until brown. These will keep indefinitely. Ginger Ale Salad.—Soak two tablespoonfuls of gelatin in one-half cupful of warm water until dissolved, or place it over hot water. Add one-fourth of a cupful of ginger ale. To three-fourths of a cupful of ginger ale add three-fourths cupful each of diced canned pineapple and chopped grape fruit pulp, one-third cupful of blanched shredded almonds, one-fourth cupful of seeded malaga grapes, a little salt and a few grains of paprika. Add the gelatin mixture, stir well and pour into individual molds which have been dipped into cold water. Chill thoroughly, unmold and serve on lettuce leaves garnished with mayonnaise. Orient Cookies.—Beat three eggs, add three tablespoonfuls of honey, one teaspoonful of alipse, one-fourth teaspoonful of clnamon, one teaspoonful of soda, one-half lemon, juice and rind. Mix, roll and cut and decorate with almonds.

Undermuslins, by the way, are becoming more and I THE LADY'S LADY more undersilks, and household linen, except for table use, is nearly all cotton—but the old names still apply. Color plays an important part in undermuslins and certain tints that can be easily renewed when garments are laundered are in as great demand as white. In line with other modes, undermuslins are presented in simple styles, with handwork more highly considered than ever. Prettiness appears to be the first requisite for success—which accounts for the little ribbon and flower fancies that are pinned or tacked on garments that are in themselves pretty. A lace-trimmed chemise and a matched tallored set are shown in the picture and tell their own brief but Why consume t knitting caps, boote such adorable sets gests are available more than one m zephyr it takes to particular little er of blue zephyr yarn ration save the self jacket and bootees cord and the bonnet ribbons.

Either silk or cotton can be used for making them, or one may choose to put handwork on sheer linen or fine volle—both very durable. In the tailored set the edges of the short chemise and pants are finished with a blas binding and the pants show a short split in the outside seam at the knee. Val lace insertion and narrow edging contribute the most staple of all finishing touches to the chemise, which indulges in a bit of sheer frivolity in the frill of finely plaited net at one side. A bow, with hanging loops, of narrow ribbon adds another pretty touch. It is pinned on with the smallest of safety pins. Heart-shaped medallions outlined with fancy stitching, in the tailored suit, are centered with little ribbon lowers, which are taken off and put on at pleasure and easily renewed. When it comes to clothing for the little ones, the great problem is to keep the tiny body warm and yet not burden the child with garments of overweight. It is not to be wondered at that every child's wardrobe is largely made up of things knitted, for mothers never yet have succeeded in finding for their little ones a worthy substitute for clothing made of woolen yarn. These days our children glory in knitted array which, though machine made, nevertheless possesses exquisite finesse, individual styles, and all the requirements of loveliness which mothers covet for their children's apparel. I Why consume time crocheting or knitting caps, bootees and sacks when such adorable sets as the picture suggests are available at a cost not much more than one must pay for the zephyr it takes to make them? This particular little ensemble is knitted of blue zephyr yarn, having no decoration save the self zigzag stripe. The jacket and bootees tie with a knitted cord and the bonnet with a pretty blue ribbons. Such a cunning slipover sweater as the older kiddle is wearing! It is a style of unusual merit, both as quality and attractive design. These are to be had in most every color combination, such as tan with brown, copen blue with gray or navy with red. The sweater in the picture is knitted 1 of bright red with contrasting collar and cuffs of white. There are white woolly pompons finishing off the girdle and at the deep V neckline. It is not given to the elders to have an exclusive right to the now so popular brushed wool garments, for youngsters, too, are wearing cunning sweater sets fitted with the same shaggy furlike effect. Of course the yard is of the downlest fuzzy-wuzzy kind, and the finer outfits are featherweight, but infinitely warm and pleasing to the touch. Scarf and cap sets are especially designed for tots and they express adorable colors, such as powder blue with gray and white stripes, rose with pale blue, and the more practical sort are knitted in solid camel color. Pure white sets are the climax of attractiveness for the infant. Julia Bottomley (©, 1923, Western Newspaper Union.) Tassels on Gown.
