XXX GO TO HIGH SCHOOL PAIGN SET FOR Alpha Phi Alpha with Members Plan Million Educational Message to Be Broad Posters, Placards, and Li Education to Washington, D. C.—"Go to High School—Go to College Week," pronounced by leading educators as the most forward-looking movement ever inaugurated by a group of college students, will be observed this year throughout the United States during the week of May 4-11, inclusive, by the fifty odd chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. Each year this movement is making a deeper impression upon the Negro youth of America and its influence has been noted in the increase in attendance of Negro students at the various high schools and colleges of the country. This year marks the fifth annual conduct of this great nation-wide education campaign to encourage Negro youths to continue their education. During the year 1923, more than 3,000,-000 parents and students were reached through circulation of literature, the display of placards, through the press, and the holding of meetings by the various chapters and members of the fraternity in the various sections of the United States. Message to Be Broadcasted by Radio The campaign to be waged this year promises to be more effective than those of previous years. In addition to the meetings to be held in the various cities of the country, plans are under way to have the gospel of "Stay in High School and Go to College" broadcasted from the important radio broadcasting stations in every large city in America. 5,000,000 Persons Goal of Fraternity In Education Campaign Details regarding other unique features to be used in bringing the movement to the attention of as many as 5,000,000 persons will be published later, according to a statement issued by Norman L. McGhee of Washington, D. C., the national secretary of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. National President to Direct Campaign The campaign this year is under the immediate direction of Raymond W. Cannon of Minneapolis, Minn., national president of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity. Mr. Cannon states that from all indications the message of "Go to High School—Go to College" will be heard in every state of the Union as there are now chapters or members of the fraternity in practically every city of importance in the United States. Committee at Work Compiling Statisties on Advantage of Education A committee headed by Oscar C. Brown, editor of the official organ of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity, is at work upon the preparation of placards, posters, pamphlets, and other literature giving statistics and important data showing the advantages of education. This literature will be distributed through the country by the chapters of the fraternity during the week of May 4-11, 1924. It is known that the estate left by the late Mrs. Virginia Proctor is one of the largest left by any colored resident in Allegheny county. Letters of administration, on her estate were taken out by her daughter, Miss Jennie M. Proctor, and from papers filed of record the estate aggregates $100,000. W. H. Staunton is attorney for the estate.—Pittsburg American. Columbia University Stands Firm Against Race Discrimination in Dormitory New York, April 4.—Columbia University, through Dean Hawkes, has declined to accede to the request of a Southern white that a colored student, F. W. Wells, be ousted from Furnal Hall, one of the dormitories. Immediately upon receipt of news of the attempt to have Wells ousted, Walter White, assistant secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, called upon the Columbia dean. Dean Hawkes told Mr. White that he had informed the white troublemaker that he could leave the dormitory if he wanted to, that his room could very easily be rented as there was a long waiting list. "One man in the hall," said Dean Hawkes, "a trouble-maker, disagreeable fellow tried to stir up feeling against a colored man who had been given a room in Furnald hall. When he came to me about the matter, I told him that colored men had stayed in that hall before and that in the future, as in the past, there would be no discrimination of any sort allowed. I told him that as long as a man behaved himself, there would be no objection to any man, whatever his race, being given quarters at Columbia, and I further informed this man that if he or any other did not want to stay in the hall he could move, as we have a waiting list with hundreds of men's names on it and could easily fill the rooms of those who moved. "When I told him this he made the remark. 'Well, I will give you some publicity and see how you like that.' He then got newspaper reporters and gave them the material on which the stories in today's newspapers were based. I say again that any person or persons who do not want to stay in Furnald hall can move and may the Lord bless them." According to the account in the New York World of the protest against Mr. Wells residing in Furnald hall, the objects were led by J. B. Rucker of Norfolk, Va., and L. H. Hill, who comes from near Atlanta, Ga., both of them Southern whites. On Thursday morning, April 3, following a Ku' Klux Klan demonstration on the Columbia University campus, the N. A. A. C. P. wrote Mr. Wells urging him to stand firm and offering assistance if it should be needed. Asks Colored People to Name Subjects for Discussion Vital to Race N. A. A. C. P. Planning to Make Philadelphia Conference Representative of Public Opinion New York, April 4.—Colored people throughout the country are being asked to suggest subjects which they believe to be vital to the welfare of their race, for discussion at the Fifteenth Annual Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which is to be held in Philadelphia this June. According to announcement made at the N. A. A. C. P. national office today, it is planned to make the Philadelphia sessions a "delegates' conference" and to give colored people from all parts of the United States opportunity to voice their attitude toward public questions. In order to assure to delegates to the conference a reduced railroad fare dependent upon certification of 250 applications, the N. A. A. C. P. is planning to have members of branches near Philadelphia secure their certificates in large numbers, in behalf of the delegates who have to travel from a distance. In view of the conference being held in the year of a presidential elections it is requested that all persons wishing to forward suggestions for subjects of importance to the race to be discussed, send them to Walter White, secretary of the conference, at 69 Fifth avenue, New York city. Bobbing Hair Causes Baldness (Lincoln News Service.) New York, April 7, 1924.—Proprietresses of Harlem hair dressing parlorso who have been drawing good financial returns for bobbing the tresses of youthful and other seekers of beauty, are ill at ease of the recent announcement of Joseph Byrne, editor of a beauty magazine, who said, in addressing the annual convention of the American Hairdressers' Association: "Bobbed hair is a sure means for causing baldness and it won't be many years before the world is filled with bald-headed women." An optimistic hair-dresser, located on Lenox avenue, stated that she had just as soon be engaged in growing on hair as in cutting it off, and that, on the whole, the former was a much less laborious occupation. Missouri Delegate- At-Large (Lincoln News Service) (Lincoln News Service). St. Louis, April 7, 1924.—Former Representative, the Hon. Walthal M. Moore, has been endorsed for delegate-at-large to the Republican National Convention by the Missouri Negro Republican League Club of this city. Those who are urging this recognition for Mr. Moore say that he is the logical man for the place, pointing out his splendid record as a member of the Missouri Legislature, his party loyalty and his devotion to public duty and to the interests of his race. It is understood that he will have the strong backing of the G. O. P. in the state, and the solid support of the St. Louis delegation at the State Convention, which will meet at Springfield, April 20.—(From St. Louis Argus.) Pullman Porters Win; Get 4 Per Cent Wage Increase Chicago, Ill., April 7.—The representatives of the Pullman Porters and Maids who have been in session here with the management of the Pullman Company all week have proven they are diplomats in more ways than simply giving service to travelers. Elected by the nearly 10,000 porters and maids of twenty great Pullman divisions to present the claims and grievances of their fellow employees they began by securing a 12 per cent increase in pay. The company recently granted voluntarily an 8 per cent advance. The porters contended this was insufficient to meet the high cost of existence these days and the company added 4 per cent more. Considerable improvement in hours and working conditions were granted. Preparatory time, that is, time which men put in at the yards preparing cars for the reception of passengers is to be paid for as well as overtime put in on late trains. "On belated trains an adjustment of time will be made and compensation given," read the agreement. Every matter brought to the attention of the management is said to have been satisfactorily adjusted by the men in conference. The delegates departed Saturday for their homes to report back to the men of their districts smiling and confident that the plan of sitting across the table and thrashing out differences was the right and proper one. Another White Girl "Imagines an Attack by a Negro (N. A. A. C. P. Press Service) Another attack by a Negro has been "imagined" by a white girl, to cover her own misdeed. This time it was in Harrisburg, and was reported as follows in the Harrisburg Telegraph: Girl Admits Wild Story of Attack Was Pure Imagination After an hour and a half's grilling by police, 15-year-old Rosina McNeal, who yesterday told police she was attacked by a Negro in the tinsmith shop of W. H. Snook, 332 Kelker street, admitted the attack occurred merely in her imagination, said Chief Joseph P. Thompson today. The girl not only admitted the story of the attack to be false, said the chief, but also admitted stealing the gold locket that disappeared from a tray on the office safe. It was the desire to possess this locket that caused the girl to stage the fake robbery and attack, according to the story she told between sobs to Chief Thompson. But fear of being caught with the locket in her possession, she said, made her throw it down a sewer. The locket, the property of Snook's daughter, has not been recovered. The McNeal girl, who lives at 330 Kelker street, has been in charge of the office at the Snook shop for the last two days while Mr. Snook was busy elsewhere. When her brother, employed as a tinner by Snook, and another workman returned to the shop shortly after noon yesterday, the girl told of a Negro entering the place and after learning that she was alone, attacking her and then taking the locket. The girl will not be arrested, said the chief, and no charge has been placed against her. METHODIST RACIAL PROBLEM (Lincoln News Service.) New Orleans, April 7, 1924.—"The very heart of the matter of unification of the Methodist Episcopal Church and the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, is the question of attitudes on the race problem," according to the Southwestern Christian Advocate, the official organ of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In discussing the question the following is presented as the view of representatives of the Methodist Episcopal Church, assembled in its delegated General Conference, and it is claimed that the expression reflects the dominant Christian opinion and attitude of that church: "Much of the talk today about race consciousness is an unconscious recrudescence of the spirit that Jesus came to destroy, and leads straight to new hostilities. It flows from the feeling of SUPERIORITY. We have repudiated election as applied to individuals and largely restrained it as applied to race. But our church must this day cry out in Christ's name that in Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek, barbarian, Syctian, bond nor free; that no men and no races are at the mercy of their environment or heredity. All false sense of superiority and inevitable advantage must be educated out. Intensified race consciousness tends all the time away from brotherhood; all the time toward strife and hostility. But the church, facing the yellow races, the black races, the white races, must now speak her master word and follow her creative operative method, the method of the teacher rather than the method of the fighter or the reformer. The church holds the ideas, the ideals and the principles of Jesus. She must remake the mind of the world for humanity. Let us repent, therefore, of race pride, RACE PREJUDICE, and race bitterness; repent in America, repent in Asia, repent in Africa, repent in Europe. The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. This is our gospel. We will not lose heart in it. Blood is thicker than water and the human family is of one blood. We will labor everywhere to make a unity of spirit in the races of the whole world." Differing from the above, but regarded as the typical attitude of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, is the following opinion of an Alabama Conference: "Through a mistaken and mischievous immigration policy, we have brought ourselves a very vexing racial problem. Some of these races have sought our shores, some have been induced to come, and one brought here in slavery. We owe a duty to all these races, but perhaps more to the Negro, who came involuntarily. We CANNOT live together in social or political equality; no distinctive races in history have accomplished this. There must be one dominant race to rule the nation. Herein lies our problem that we must solve in justice to all the INFERIOR races in our midst. How this can be done, the wise and patient must discover. The solution cannot be hastened. Deportation on a large scale is hardly practicable; miscegenation always results in hybrids inferior to either of the original races, and consequent degradation of both. "The question is too delicate and too intricate to be entrusted to any except the wisest and most judicious. Hence, we seriously doubt the wisdom of our missionery board in putting this question in the course of study for promiscuous discussion." NO.26. Faithful Servant Wins Will Contest For $50,000 Estate Trenton, N. J.—Judge Wells of Burlington county ruled against the contestant in the matter of the will of the late Mrs. Emma L. Woodward of Trenton, who bequeathed the bulk of her estate, amounting to from $40,000 to $50,000, to Miss Amelia Stuart, colored, who had been for thirty years a faithful and beloved servant to Mrs. Woodward. The will was contested by Mrs. Virginia W. Armstrong of Trenton, a sister of the deceased, but the judge ruled that the bequest was the result of faithful service rendered by Miss Stuart for the thirty years of her association with Mrs. Woodward. Legislature Gives Morgan $25,000 Governor Ritchie Studies Bill and May Give It His Executive Approval Annapolis, Md., April 3.—In the last hours of the Legislature this week, a bill went through appropriating $125,000 for a science hall at Morgan College. President J. O. Spencer of the college spent practically all of the week here and aided by his friends succeeded in getting the measure through both the Senate and the House. His success is said to be largely through the fact that the Legislature passed bills appropriating $100,000 to St. John's College, a large sum to the University of Maryland. The bill was first indefinitely postponed in the House, later defeated and finally reconsidered and passed. In committing himself, Governor Ritchie said he is studying the bill and hopes to be able to give it his executive approval. It is said the governor will confer with President Spencer in the near future to see if this appropriation will make Morgan College self-supporting. The governor's educational committee which recently surveyed the colleges recommended that the state aid be withheld from these colleges in the future. That the Morgan College bill went through the Legislature and the bill appropriating $100,000 for a school for colored feeble-minded school children was lost, was said to have been due to the fact that the latter measure was introduced by Republicans. The bill passed the Senate, but was killed in the House. It had the backing of the Grand Jurors' Association and a number of local organizations. Two building and loan associations, having a combined capital of $225,000, and a life insurance company capitalized at $150,000, have been organized by progressive colored citizens in West Virginia. One of the most successful real estate firms in the city of Washington and the District of Columbia is the "McKinley Organization," composed of Messrs. Whitefield McKinlay, Thomas H. R. Clarke, and Charles H. Flagg, three colored then who have financed thousands of home-buyers. EASTER DRESS ACCESSORIES short and strap wrist the new wanted spring .....

NEWS TO DATE IN PARAGRAPHS CAUGHT FROM THE NETWORK OF WIRES ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD DURING THE PAST WEEK WESTERN A charge of first degree murder against Beatrice Hunter for complicity in the shooting of two Salt Lake City police officers by her companion, William Lee, last Jan. 15, has been dismissed. Wire tappers collected between $50,000 and $150,000 from San Francisco bookmakers by switching the numbers of the actual winners at Tijuana to those horses on which members of their gang had bet, according to the San Francisco Examiner. Ralph W. Seyboldt, convicted of murder in the first degree by a jury in the District Court at Salt Lake City for the slaying of Patrolman David H. Growther of the Salt Lake City police force, was sentenced to be shot to death at the state prison on Wednesday, June 4, next. The Colorado river conference, which was to have been held at El Centro, April 12-13, has been indefinitely postponed on account of the foot and mouth epidemic. It was announced in Los Angeles by the California Real Estate Association, under whose auspices the meeting was to have taken place. Two unmasked bandits in San Francisco obtained eight pouches of registered mail from a mail truck after forcing the driver and an armed guard to a place where they could make an easy escape in the heavy traffic. The pouches were transferred to an automobile while one of the bandits held a pistol at the guard's side. Postal authorities said the principal loss was $20,000 in bonds. Abert, E. Cuthbert, former evangelist, who sold 75-c. Bibles for $3.75, is serving a three months' ten. in the Orange county (Calif.) jail. Cuthbert was said to have built up a mail order Bible business by scanning a newspaper death column each day and mailing a Bime G O D to each bereaved widow whose name appeared. In pleading guilty to a charge of using the mails to defraud, he explained he found these widows "were in a proper frame of mind to buy Bibles at his price." WASHINGTON A favorable report was made by the Senate territorial committee upon the bill providing that Porto Rico shall have the right after 1032 to elect her governor and giving the insular legislature the right to impeach. A bill designed to prevent a monopoly of radio communication was passed by the Senate. It declares the air to be the "inallenable possession of the people" and prohibits licenses extending more than two years. Charges that the government was defrauded during the war by the DuPont Powder Company and the Louisville & Nashville railroad were made before the Wheeler-Brookhart committee by George W. Stock, a government acquaintant, who surveyed the Old Hickory powder plant in Tennessee, a subsidiary operated for the government. American steel and iron products are going into the markets of the world at prices that are offering fatal competition to the famous producers of Great Britain. Former Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty was advised recently by friends in Columbus, Ohio, that all of his personal files for twenty years back had been burglarized. The files were removed to Daugherty's home in Columbus from his law office when he became attorney general in 1921. He said that he did not know what had been taken from the files and would not be able to determine what was missing until he had made a personal investigation. The House Irrigation committee decided to take up for consideration the second refusal by Governor Hunt of Arizona to accept a request to testify in repard to the proposed Boulder canon dam. Governor Hunt was asked to appear concerning charges by him in a telegram to Chairman Smith that Secretary Work was using "his position" to favor Colorado in the proposed river development. He replied that he could not spare the time to come to Washington at present. The Interstate Commerce Commission has approved the proposed reorganization plan, whereby the newly-formed Northern Colorado and Eastern Railroad Company will acquire and operate a line of railroad 112 miles in length, extending from Laramie, Wyo., to Coalmont, Jackson county, Colorado. The week of April 21 to 27 will be Forest Protection week, so proclaimed by President Calvin Coolidge to call the attention of the country to the necessity for conserving the nation's forests.

Forty persons were killed and eighty injured when the Mexico City-United States express crashed into a freight train on a down grade near Bernal, state of Queretaro, according to reports. Several Americans were on board the special train, but none of them was reported among the casualties. All the killed and injured were in second and third-class cars directly following the engine. Searches of houses have begun pursuant to the measures taken by M. Tirard, president of the Rhineland High Commission, and General Degoutte for the suppression of alleged secret nationalist militant organizations in the Rhineland and the Rubia and have already resulted in numerous arrests and the seizure of many documents proving, according to the French authorities, the extensive ramifications of these illicit activities. Two large mine laying submarines 1,500 tons each, are to be constructed for the Japanese navy by the Kawasaki dock yard of Kobe, Japan, according to announcement by dockyard authorities. Work is to be commenced immediately and the submarines will be launched in November. German patents will be followed in most of the construction, although Japanese naval architects are said to have introduced some new devices. The submarines will be able to carry forty nine enches. Returns from Italy's parliamentary elections indicated an overwhelming victory for the Fasolait. The government candidates appeared to be leading in nearly every region. Final returns from Canada to the Fasolait 24,576 votes; Unitarian Socialists, 14,640; Catholics, 4,793; Liberals, 3,709; Communists, 2,006. The Independents, headed by Deputy Glufrida, were running second to the Fasolait in Catania, with the other parties trailing. It was estimated that the Fasolait would poll fully one-third of the entire vote. GENERAL Rioting between townspeople and members of the Ku Klux Klan at Lilly, Pa. caused the death of two men of the town, the probable fatal injury to another and less serious injury to a score of others. Members of both opposing groups were wounded in a pitched battle in which many shots were fired. Four women were among those injured. Harlan Fiske Stone of New York has been selected by President Coolidge as attorney general, Mr. Stone, a native of New Hampshire, and 51 years old, has served since 1010 as dean of Columbia University Law School, and recently resigned to become an active member of the New York law firm of Satterlee, Canfield & Stone. He received his law education at Amherst and Columbia, and was admitted to the New York bar in 1898. Wuge increases of approximately 5 per cent less certain concessions and compensations to the railroads were reported to have been virtually agreed upon as the basis of an agreement which was expected to be reached soon by negotiators representing thirty-one western railroads and their subsidiaries and the Order of Railroad Conductors and the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen. Approximately 80,000 men would be affected and the railroads' annual pay rolls would be increased something like $5,000,000 if the reported basis of the negotiations is incorporated in the final agreement. The world's record in paper production for a single machine has been broken at the plant of the Algonquin Paper Company, Ogdensburg, N. Y. During a continuous twenty-four hour run, the machine produced 102.9 tons of paper. Passage of the Johnson bill limiting immigration to 2 per cent of the population of 1890, was advocated with modification by speakers at an immigration meeting in New York city sponsored by patriotic organizations.

EXPERTS REPORT AROUSES HOPE RUHR NOT MENTIONED IN REPORT MADE TO REPARATIONS COMMISSION SAY GERMANY CAN PAY DAWES COMMITTEES PLAN SLID ING SCALE PAYMENTS FOR Paris.—The report of the experts who have been engaged for the past three months in the task of ascertaining Germany's capacity to pay reparations has been given to the reparations commission. The two committees, under the chairmanship of Brig. Gen. Charles G. Dawes and Reginald McKenna, respectively, have gone deeply into the intricacies of the many problems connected with reparations, and, as mentioned in the covering letter, they approached the task." ter, they approached the class of business men anxious to obtain effective results." The league of nations is drawn into the reparations problem by the Dawes report, while an unofficial representative of the United States is slated for an important role in the execution of the experts' plan. An American member of the general board of control for the proposed new gold bank of issue is quite likely to fill the important post of "commissioner." His duty will be to decide when Germany's capacity to pay has been reached, while the league finance committee will be asked to arbitrate if the commissioner's decisions in applying the "index of prosperity" are disputed by either Germany of the allies. The experts carefully omit in their report mention of the political aspects of the Ruhr occupation, but make it plain that the French and Belgians if they see fit to maintain garrisons in the Ruhr, must keep their hands off the railroads and industries. The first prerequisite to the payment of reparations, the experts assert, is sound money in Germany. They propose to this end the establishment of a new gold bank of issue with 400,000,000 gold marks capital, in the organization of which they make it to the interest and profit of Germany, as well as to the advantage of the allies to co-operate. Germany's production, they say, will enable her to meet her own requirements and raise amounts to apply to reparations as contemplated in the plan. These payments, fixed on sliding scale, run from 1,120,000,000 gold marks in 1926 to 2,500,000,000 in 1934. In order to prevent these payments from affecting adversely Germany's financial stability, an index of prosperity has been fixed, making it possible to judge whether the amounts of the scheduled payments are or are not beyond her capacity. A general board of control, including an American, with allied, neutral and German members, is the experts' solution of the difficult problem of guarantees that Germany will execute the terms of eventual settlement under their plan. The experts found this plan most likely to satisfy the allies and at the same time prove acceptable to the Germans. One member of this board, with the title of commissioner, will be vested with the important duties of deciding to an index of prosperity when the payments provided for in the plan may prove too enormous and may threaten the upsetting of German finances. Recognizing the obligation of Germany to pay and declaring that she has resources with which to pay, the experts insist that if Germany does pay she must have her hands free to exploit her economic resources. Fillipinos Rivolt; Leaders Sentenced Manila.—Three leaders in the recent outbreaks of fanatics in Surigao province have been sentenced to death and 198 others were given sentences of thirty years' imprisonment. The trials were held in the Surigao courts and were based on charges of sedition and massacre. The principal offenses involved occurred last January. The disorders broke out when constabulary broke up a tinker considered sacred by the Colorum, a religious society, after they had contaminated the water to such an extent that they were endangering their health by using it.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One Year.....$2.00 Six Months.....1.25 Three Months......75 Payable in Advance REACHING A MAN'S SIZE IT IS AT last dawning upon white America seemingly, that the Negro is no longer a child race and must be reckoned with from the standpoint of a man, fully capable of striking out for himself in any direction. We have been watching with some interest a series of articles in Collier's Weekly of late from the pen of a Southern white man who writes with commendable frankness and apparently has intimate knowledge of the Negro question from every angle. His latest offering, "Jim Crow Is Growing Up," deals out some telling truths, with a just recognition of the merit and native ability that is carrying the Negro beyond the environs of child like dependency to the place where he stands upright and unafraid. Significant indeed is his observation that "We shall have to forget about keeping the Negro in his place. He is growing out of it. This new Negro is creating a real race problem." Another significant element in his observations is recognition of the fact that there are as many different kinds of Negroes as there are different kinds of white folks. This is a telling point and once driven home will do away with many misunderstandings and many injustices. As a matter of fact, only the foolish blind and bigoted white person can fail in seeing these differences in the notable advance in all lines the Negro is making. But sixty years removed from bondage and able to boast ownership of 218,-612 farms, embracing 13,948,512 acres, with improvements valued at $554,158,000. We have seventy-four banks with a total capital of $6,-250,000, doing an annual business of $35,000,000. The most commanding of Southern cities finds the Negro standing upright, doing a man's part and accepting a man's responsibilities. A Genius in Black Just now the most talked of man in America, and the one to furnish a greater variety of themes for magazine writers than any other, is George W. Carver, scientist in charge of the research laboratories at Tuskegee Institute. Carver, through a development of 165 by-products, has raised the lowly peanut to a plane of respectability and importance. With 115 by-products developed from the sweet potato, including synthetic rubber, black paint and white flour, by finding in the unyielding clay on the hillsides of Georgia materials, productive of many colors, by producing milk, butter, salad oils, face lotions, inks and dyes from peanut, he has clearly out-Burbanked Burbank. The wizard of California abdicates in favor of the wizard of Tuskegee. The throne of presumed Anglo-Saxon superiority totters as the monarch in ebony ascends. However, Carver is but the type, for 'tis the Negro, the man, not "Jim Crow" that has grown up. Happy to relate "Jim Crow" is a species of other days, he could be assigned a place and was content to stay in any old place. His shadow has become dimmer and dimmer as his visible form recedes and a new day dawns, in which the Negro, reaching a man's size, makes his own place in life. In Art and Culture Only recently, very recently, here in Denver, a pleasing and magnificent evidence was given of our advance in music and art. The evidence existed not alone in the fine, interpretive genius of the star in the cast, nor entirely in the sweet graciousness of his accomplished and charming accompanist. These were marvels to be true. A master violionist of the race, skilled in the delicacy of touch, with a power of imagery and interpretation almost uncanny, holding a place in the hall of fame along side of the most adored masters, Clarence Cameron White gives to the race a new concept of its power and possibilities. And who can say that a future, fully as eminent, may be carved out and awating her who lent so much to an evening of musical triumph just a few nights ago. But our real racial glory and triumph was manifested in the large crowd assembled, in the perfect attention accorded every number and in the warm-hearted approval given the artists in their offerings. Here was displayed the true culture, the true artistic culture; here was given unmistakable evidence of our progress in the refined and aesthetic. Here was no evidence nor even suggestion that "Jim Crow" was on the job, but that in music in art, in literature and all their refined tastes, as well as in the business world in the sciences and economics, the Negro is reaching a full man's size. WHAT TO DO WITH OUR BOYS THE NEAR approach to the close of the school year brings with it the annual problem of how to best conserve and preserve the boy life during the intervening summer months. The vacation season is one always anxiously welcomed by the school boy and yet it is one full of anxiety on the part of parents. It is a problem applicable alike to rich and poor, for summer, with its varied out door attractions, its appeal to energetic, growing boys, is a great formative period for either weal or woe. It is well, then, that thoughtful parents and society in general is giving earnest consideration to the problem of the immature boy during his schoolless days. Already many are seeking gainful occupations, some from necessity, others from choice. It has come to our observation that some of the most wealthy of our citizens are seeking work for their boys, solely to keep them from the streets, from spending haphazard and aimless days in a dangerous period of life. Denver has been shocked the past winter through a revelation of criminal instincts and practices among the exceeding young. The grizzled, hardened criminal of the old school seems to exist nowadays only in hair raising fiction or dime novels. "Youth will be served," is an age old adage, and youth is having its day now, but not altogether to our liking. The old problem of cause and effect comes in for close scrutiny at this time. One of the most hopeful agencies at hand is the Boy Scout movement. Mighty few boys trained in Scout ideals and principles break into the criminal column. They are disciplined in self-reliance and self-control, master elements worthy of acceptance by old as well as young. We wish the Boy Scout movement were given a larger program among the boys of our group. It is a big job, but a happy one, and none pays larger dividends. The Big Brother movement is also worthy of encouragement. Many prominent business and professional men of Denver have enlisted in the cause, and yet there is room for many more, and the idle summer months is a good season in which to enlarge upon its activities. A keen, wide awake church organization has already taken steps to give its boys a mountain outing in the summer. By necessity, however, the outing must-be of short duration. This is the lamentable phase of the question, but the central idea is good and the results will surely be beneficial. A local daily paper, commenting upon the situation, sums it up as follows: "It strikes us that intelligent fathers and mothers realize that misdirected energy is at the bottom of much of the mischief into which young folk get when their hours of leisure are entirely their own and they lack guidance. The growing youth needs something to interest him, something helpful, which will shape his "pep" and activity into constructive effort. It is in such a role that the Boy Scout movement becomes a vital factor. "A million boys, it is estimated, turn 21 every year. Vast numbers of them are utterly unprepared for manhood. Their potential values as industrious, law-abiding citizens, have never been capitalized by such moral agencies as the Boy Scouts, an organization which has for its object the training of boys for good citizenship. "Think it over. Perhaps you can aid some youngster to become a part of this movement, which is building boy life throughout America and forming the character which is the backbone of true citizenship." The Churches of Tomorrow Will Be Able to Rally the New Generation By REV. JAMES GORDON GILKEY, in Christian Century. HERE is the religious message of the new churches. They will say to the youth of the future: "You are not here to lie prostrate in the dust, accepting weakly what misfortune thrusts upon you, and calling it stupidly the inexplicable decree of Providence. You are here to work with God and let God work through you until at last these disasters—as much of a tragedy for God as for men—are forever wiped away. You are here not to accept disease and death, but to join God's crusade against them. You are here not to watch men endure pain, but to help them find a way to escape it. You are here not to see a hideously cruel social order perpetuate itself, while men say slyly that there will always be poverty, always be unemployment, always be strife and war. "You are here to fight these things—fight them with God who has always been fighting them, and who has forever been dreaming of a world redeemed at last from the horror of poverty and the agony of battle. Here is the meaning of your life, here is the task of the church, here is the purpose of the ultimately triumphant God." With a challenge like that the churches of tomorrow will be able to rally the new generation for the greatest onslaught history has known against sin and suffering, disease and misery, war and hatred. The Church of Christ decadent? Protestantism about to disappear? Oh, no! Once more we see an old order dying, and a new order coming to birth. Once more we see the Living God calling the church forward, after its four centuries of settled life. Once more Christianity gathers strength for a new adventure. Remember This, Men—Mechanics Are Our Last Stand and We Must Use Them By HOMER CROY, in Motor. I'm a perfect gump around machinery—anything more complicated than a screwdriver makes my head swim. But my wife doesn't know this. She thinks I am gifted in regard to machinery and I treasure this illusion . . . you know how hard it is these days to get women to look up to us. It used to be women looked up to us and thought we were perfect. But have you noticed any of that lately? . . . I thought not. I have my method of fostering her belief that I am a master of machinery. It is a wonderful help in the complicated matter of family driving. When anything goes wrong with the car, I leap out, lift the hood and say, "Hmmm! Hmmm! Just as I suspected—it's not hitting right." As soon as I get the car back to the garage I turn it over to the man and my wife still has one thing in which she can look up to me. Husbands who blurt out that they don't know a danged thing about what is the matter with the car, and who stand around helplessly, hoping that some kind motorist will stop and tow them in, are making a mistake. Remember this, men—mechanics are our last stand, and we must take advantage of them. Slip the garage man a dollar and tell him not to talk. He'll get you. "Nobody Has Courage Enough to Dare to Say This to the Americans" By HENRI LA FONTAINE, Vice President Belgian Senate. Counting every allied soldier as representing 100,000 francs of capital destroyed and each mutilated soldier 50,000 francs, France, Germany, Great Britain and Italy, with 2,650,000 dead and 3,000,000 mutilated, suffered a total capital loss of 415,000,000,000 gold francs. Adding 500,- 000,000,000 in new debts and 150,000,000,000 for reparations, this represents for the three countries 1,065 billions, or 8,520 francs per head of population. The United States, with 50,000 dead, 100,000 mutilated and 100,- 000,000,000 francs war debt, bears only 1,000 gold francs per head. The total amount for the three allies and America, taken together, represents 5,025 gold francs per head of population. Consequently, to bear a fair share, the Americans ought to pay an additional 4,025 gold francs per head; that is to say, about $88,000,000,- 000 instead of claiming $12,000,000,000 from Europe. Nobody has courage enough to dare to say this to the Americans. If the latter realized it, many of them undoubtedly would admit the justness of the claim that we saved America, and that more than 2,500,000 of our men died for her. That's what European statesmen ought to tell America. When a Restaurant Patron Can Select His Live Fish From a Tank By BARRY H. RICHARDS, in Forecast. Recent innovations in the handling of sea food seem to hold out hope for even the inland fish-lovers. There are indications that American dealers are waking up to the possibility of transporting live fishes in large quantities. The day may not be so far distant when the patron of every first-class restaurant in the country can walk into his favorite hostelry, select his fish from a number sporting in a tank, and have it served up to him a few minutes later, as fresh and tasty as if he had just caught it with rod and reel. This epicurean delight has been possible abroad for some time, notably in Germany, France and England, and in the ghettos of American cities, but dealers seem to be now preparing to take up the idea on a big scale. Last spring New York city saw its first successful shipment of large quantities of live fish by rail. The Self-Centered Egotistic Hypocrite Has No Place With God or Man By REV. DR. J. ALLEN LEAS, Chicago Preacher. The repentant sinner may be forgiven; the earnest seeker for truth and right may be aided; the weak brother may be tolerated. But a self-centered egotist is impossible with God and man. He lacks the first principle of good citizenship and the first quality of sonship. Our Savior called the hypocritical egotist a "whited sepulchre, full of dead men's bones." Self-righteousness is but slightly removed from "cave man stuff." It is ready to sacrifice, for personal advantage, the best friend on earth. It will strive to condemn the very elect if perchance there may be some personal gain. It is the stuff of which demons are made. It was the cause of the fall of satan, and so long as it remains there can be no hope of pardon. Nor can it be camouflaged by pious plati- tudes nor mitigated by prayer. The self-centered man, the egotistic hypocrite, has no place with God or man.

Mrs. Mattie Collins Langford is reported among those on the sick list this week. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Newsom of Akron, Colo., were guests in the city this week. H. L. Frame of 1835 Ogden street, who was confined to his bed last week with a heavy cold, is much improved. Johnson were guests in many hours while here. It is a pleasure for us to look back on just a few months and reflect that our doors were opened to one of America's greatest Negroes. RECEPTION AND BANQUET Extended Bishop Mathew W. Claire The Rt. Rev. Mathew W. Claire The Rt. Rev. Mathew W. Claire bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, will preach at Shorter chapel Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock.

Rene Benoit, 2742 Williams street, who has been reported as quite ill for the past ten days, is showing much improvement and is well on the way to recovery. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Purcell of 2885 Stout street are the proud parents of a fine ten-pound daughter, born March 31. Mother and baby are doing nicely. Mrs. Chas. Overton, who has been in Denver several months, left Friday for her home in Los Angeles, Calif. En route home, she will visit a couple of days in Salt Lake City. Thomas Doniphan of Lewistown, Mont., is a visitor in the city this week shaking hands with many old residents of Denver. Mr. Doniphan is en route to Detroit, Mich., to reside permanently. Mrs. J. H. Mosely, 2330 Marion street, received the sad news of the sudden death of her father, J. H. Jones, a well-to-do and highly respected citizen of Atlanta, Ga., last Sunday.

Mrs. Lavernia Wilson of Springfield, Mo., is visiting her daughters, Mrs. Ferba Gross and May Higgs, of 2521 Franklin street. Mrs. Wilson's coming to Denver was a complete surprise to her daughters. She is much impressed with our beautiful city and will remain about two weeks. R. B. Bolden of 2705 Downing street is again reported to be very ill at his home. Mr. Bolden is so much a part of the life and activity of our group in Denver that his many friends will receive with sorrow the news of his continued illness. Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson and her daughter, Freda Tiggs, left for their home in Parsons, Kan., via Kansas City, last Friday evening after a two weeks' visit in Denver. They were accompanied by Geo. W. Bradley, their nephew and cousin, who had been a patient at Fitzsimmons U. S. A. hospital. JAMES WELDON JOHNSON Voted One of America's Ten Greatest Negroes When Denver threw open her arms last year and gave a hospitable welcome to James Weldon Johnson, secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and his charming wife, few were aware that our distinguished guest would so soon be given a place as one of the ten greatest Negroes America has produced. Denver's welcome to Mr. Johnson was genuine and he was entertained as but few of our race leaders can boast of. He and Mrs. ORIGINAL IN FOOR CONDITION Johnson were guests in many homes while here. It is a pleasure for us to look back on just a few months and reflect that our doors were opened to one of America's greatest Negroes. RECEPTION AND BANQUET Extended Bishop Mathew W. Claire The Rt. Rev. Matthew W. Claire, bishop of the Methodist Episcopal church, was Denver's guest of honor at a very largely attended reception and banquet at Scott M.E.churchTuesday night. The occasion was rendered notable and brilliant by the presence of many visiting pastors, here to attend the Lincoln conference, and by the presence of practically all of the Denver ministry and many of the leading men and women of the city. Bishop Claire, is not only a high church, dignitary but a noted race leader and was greeted by great applause when he arose to speak. On Wednesday morning he presided at the opening of the Lincoln conference. Following the sacrament of the Lord's supper, Bishop Claire, who is substituting for Bishop Robert Jones of New Orleans, greeted his fellow workers in the "vineyard of the Lord" and introduced R. J. Wade of Chicago, corresponding secretary of the committee on conservation and advance of the Methodist Episcopal church.

The contributions are to be received Easter Sunday and will be used mainly for spreading the gospel at home and abroad. CAMERON WHITE SCORES TRIUMPH The presentation of Clarence Cameron White to a magnificent Denver audience at the People's Presbyterian church Monday night was one of the really classic events of the season. Mr. White is a finished artist and his exceptional merit brought forth whole-hearted approval from the large audience assembled. His pleasing personality and ready response to encores won for him a warm place in the hearts of his admirers. Miss Helen Taylor, Denver's own (for all Denver loves her), was accompanist to Mr. White and added greatly to what proved a high class program. The Mid-West Quartet composed of Messrs Uggans, Brown, Bowen and Watson made its initial bow to the public and scored a great success by their snappy work and clear harmony.

"OUR MOTTO: "FOR THE SAKE OF HUMANITY" National Identification Bureau "ASK US" IN MEMORIAM Out of our deepest respect for and fondest memory of our departed friend and former member of the Legislature of the state of Colorado, who is the author of the present Civil Rights law, we take this opportunity to remind the public and his friends of the fourteenth anniversary of the death of the HON. JOSEPH H. STUART, an erudite lawyer and a legal luminary who won the plaudits of the courts and his associates as well as the appreciation of the citizens of Denver.—THE COLORADO STATESMAN. SHORT CUTS SHORT CUTS (Lincoln News Service) (Lincoln News Service.) There are 130 colored tailors in Baltimore, Md. Some of our "modernists" now insist on having a "noiseless" religion. Colored plumbers and gas and steam fitters number thirty-four in Cincinnati. The time is ripe to establish a national organization of colored building and loan associations. In Knoxville, Tenn., the leading colored women have organized the Women's Mutual Improvement Club. The Pittsburgh Council of Negro Women is one of that city's most active organizations. The Book of Esther is the only one in the Bible in which the word "God" does not appear. Under the auspices of the Norfolk Journal and Guide, the third "Annual Food Show and Industrial Exhibit" will soon be held in Norfolk, Va. Rev. Mary G. Evans, graduate of the Collegiate and Theological departments of Wilberforce, is the pastor of the St. John A. M. E. Church, Indianapolis, Ind. An effort is being made in Maryland to have the Legislature authorize a $100,000 loan for a school for feeble-minded colored youth. The editor of the Richmond Voice remarks that "Bootlegging still holds its own" down there. Is this a knock or a clever advertising scheme? The Pittsburgh American is installing linotypes and large presses and will soon be one of the best equipped newspaper and job printing plants under Negro ownership. The committee of management met in their regular meeting last Wednesday evening. Among other matters passed was a resolution to the board of directors to the effect that the new branch building when completed should be known as the Glenarm Street branch instead of the Colored Men's branch, as at present. Many have all along objected to the present name; so has the committee itself. We hope therefore that this change will meet with the hearty approval of all the friends of the branch. The Pioneer groups had a big ting at their indoor field meet at Shorter last Wednesday. Seventy members were present, the largest number that has yet attended any of the meetings. The regular monthly meeting of the groups will be held with the New Hope Tigers next Friday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The Hi-Y boys are doing a good piece of work. Through their entertainment recently given they were able to pay off many of the debts which had accumulated against the club. They will now soon begin planning their spring and summer activities. In order to give all our men a chance to hear Bishop M. W. Claire at the Shorter A. M. E. church next Sunday afternoon, the regular Y. M. C. A. meeting will be omitted. We trust all our friends will avail themselves of the opportunity to hear this eminent churchman. Silver Cord Lodge No. 104 meets 2nd and 4th Wednesday nights in each month at 258 W. St. Seward, REV.

Indefatigable in his labors, he struggled against the impending end, and was conscious to the last. Around him were gathered his wife and children. To them he had devoted in his later years all the time he could spare from his vast business interests. There had been no hope for his recovery for many hours, and the foremost medical skill could do nothing against the ravages of disease. Since the grave nature of Herr Stinnes' illness became known in Berlin it had been almost the sole topic of discussion. It far outranged in popular interest the project published by the experts' committees for the settlement of the reparation problem. The far reaching business enterprises of the man, his great influence among political leaders, and his eccentricities, had, since the war, taken a strong hold on the German people, and his death, though expected, has caused anxious speculation as to who may arise to take his place. Stinnes was known as Germany's industrial kaiser. He was one of the most dominant figures during the World war and since the war has been without a rival in Germany's financial and industrial circles. Enemies referred to him as the Assyrian Croesus, and he loved to boast he was the richest man in the world. The death of Hugo Stinnes at the very moment the process of disentangling the reparations knot, seems about to enter upon its final stage, is felt in official quarters and industrial circles as a distinct loss to Germany. Whatever the popular or official attitude towards his political orientation or his far flung economic program may have been, there was a widespread impression that Stinnes was pre-eminently qualified to take an active part in the final adjustment of the problems of which the experts committees have rendered an exhaustive verdict. The great German industrialist began his career in his father's coal mine at Muelheim, where he worked with pick and shovel shoulder to shoulder with veteran miners. To his associates and business acquaintances Stinnes was anything but a man whom popular legend portrayed as an octopus with widely ramifying tentacles clutching madly at smoke-stacks, buzzing dynamics, ocean liners, hotel properties and newspaper plants. "He was a hardheaded business man, who espied in the disrupted post-war economies everywhere a fertile field for the exploitation of his uncanny genius for swiftly appraising a situation and then applying to it his talent for constructive organization," one of his associates in the Ruhr observed today. Hoover Opposes Radio Tax Washington—Secretary Hoover stated here that he was opposed to a tax on radio sets as proposed in the senate draft of the revenue bill. Mr. Hoover's department has supervision over radio licensing. Mohammedans Revoit Against Soviet London.—Turkestan and the surrounding districts have revolted against Bolshevist rule, according to the Latvian Telegraph Agency, as quoted by the Daily Mail's Riga correspondent. The revolting troops and populace are reported to have captured parts of the province of Ferghana and to be threatening the city of Khiva. The revolt is led by czarist officers. The troops are mostly fanatical Mohammedans and the rebellion is partly due to the anti-religious propaganda of the Bolshevists. New York.—Simultaneous raids in New York, Bayport, L. I., and New Britain, Conn., by United States secret service men under Joseph A. Palma, operative in charge, resulted in the capture of an entire gang of alleged counterfeiters, eleven men and two women, and the seizure of $40,000 in spurious $20 federal reserve notes. The arrests were made, the agents said, just as the band was about to circulate the counterfeit money. The federal agents also took a complete counterfeit outfit. Elood Wrecks South Dakota City Belle Fourche, S. D.—With flood waters of the Belle Fourche river the highest in the history of the city, more than twenty-five homes are flooded and many families were homeless. Many of the flood victims were forced to flee from their homes without saving any of the household goods. Half of the homes were washed from the foundations and dashed to kindling wood against the piers or the trees steel bridges.

Denver.—Beet growers of Colorado and other states who have contracts with the Great Western Sugar Company are receiving checks totaling approximately $2,500,000, payment of which was announced by local officials of the company. Breckenridge.—The local Democratic ticket was victorious over the Citizens' party in a hotly contested election here. The Damocrats were headed by Trevor B. Thomas, who was elected mayor. The election was in charge of an all-woman election board. Denver.—J. B. Ferril of Colorado Springs was re-elected president of the Colorado Bakers' Association for the coming year at the last formal session of the annual convention of the organization at the Albany hotel. James Holmes of Denver was again named secretary. Denver—Active preparations for a campaign in an effort to oust Mayor Stapleton from office were started by officials of the recall organization after attorneys for the organization won their first legal victory in the fight to force the city clerk to file recall petitions, placed with him a week ago, with the election commission. Loveland.—Russell L. Whorton of Loveland, who enlisted a short time ago in the army, was drowned at Culebra, West Indies, during the recreation hour of the U. S. S. Pennsylvania. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. L. B. Whorton of Loveland, and his brother, Leland B. Whorton, was the first soldier from Loveland to die in the World war. Boulder.—High school teachers who bob their hair are perhaps as nice as those who don't, but the city superintendents of Colorado schools, in convention here do not approve of them, it was brought out in the roll call at the opening session of the twelfth annual high school and college conference. They approve of dancing, both by teachers and pupils, however, but do not favor the agitation for uniformity of dress. Victor.—A fabulously rich strike has been made at the 2,700-foot level in No. 1 vein of the Portland mine, according to Fred Jones, superintendent of the mine. One thousand pounds of ore have been taken from a pocket in the last two days, with an average gross valuation of $8,000. Some of the ore has a valuation of more than $10 a pound. The general average of the ore is about $8 a pound. Lake City.—Encouraging reports come in from the Golden Fleece group of mines at Lake City, Hinsdale county, now in the hands of a leasing company made up of Denver and Lake City miners, well acquainted with the possibilities of this former bonanza of the 1894 period. Recent assays show $221.76 per ton for the core of the four-foot ore vein, of which $208.77 is gold and $12.69 in silver—the ore being of the petzite class. Denver.—Pledges that two of the five wells to be drilled by the Texas Company and the Transcontinental Oil Company in the Moffat field this summer will be located on state school land were given by Levi Smith, a director, and Raymond D. Meyer of the Transcontinental Company, at a conference with the members of the state Land Board. In addition, the oil men agreed to drill on other school sections under lease to the Transcontinental Company on the Iles and Pagoda, or Beaver Creek structures ten miles east of the Moffat field. Rocky Ford.—Most of the larger cantaloupe shippers have or have had representatives in the the Arkansas valley signing for the 1924 crop, and almost to a man they all talk a smaller acreage than in the last few years. The acreage in 1923 amounted to 10,614 acres, and as the season was not the best for growing the fruit few in the game made any money. Denver.—Wayne C. Williams, attorney general of Colorado, issued a statement here a few days ago that he was preparing for a rigid investigation of freight rates in Colorado with a view of sufts brought in the name of the state to relieve what he terms a "horrible" condition as the rates affect farmers, merchants and shippers. Denver.—Members of the Colorado Wheat Growers' Association will elect ten new directors May 12, and a preliminary nomination primary will be held April 21 in ten districts in the state. Each of the ten districts contains approximately 500 members and each will elect two directors. The Colorado Wheat Grower, official organ of the association, carries the list of polling places. Denver.—The thirty-ninth annual meeting of the Colorado Association of County Superintendents and Institute Workers closed its Denver session with a luncheon at the Argonaut hotel.' During the morning meeting, held at the Morey Junior High school, officers were elected to serve during the coming year. These were S. J. Shadel of Trinidad, president; Nan B scales of Steamboat Springs, vice president; E. N. Freeman of Wheatridge secretary, and Flora Allison of Logan county, treasurer. Boulder.—The Empire Gas and Fuel Company, a Henry L. Doherty corporation, entertained sixty farmers residing east of Boulder at the Lakeside power plant a few days ago. Plans of the company for leasing approximately 7,000 acres of land five miles east of Boulder for oil and gas, were discussed. M. J. C. Ferguson, general manager of the Lakeside Construction Company, was the speaker at the meeting. The object of the company's activity is to secure a gas field near Denver, from which the Public Service Company could pipe gas to the capital city. The Lakeside plan is now being built by the Public Service Company to supply additional power for this district. The territory sought by the Empire company is likely to prove out as a gas field, according to geologists who have surveyed it. The company is offering the farmers a $12\frac{1}{2}$ per cent royalty for leases, it is reported. One of the main difficulties just now seems to be that certain sections of the desired acreage have already been leased to small oil companies and private individuals. Grand Junction.—A serious shortage of irrigation water for this section, indicated by little snow on surrounding mountains the latter part of February, has been averted by the heavy snows of March, which have brought snow depths to nearly normal, reports of foresters now on Grand Mesa taking annual snow measurements show While on Grand Mesa with a ski party, Ray Peck, supervisor of Grand Mesa national forest, found but thirty-four inches of snow shown by the Ward lake ranger station scale on Feb. 29. This was the lowest snow depth ever reported from that station for the last of February, normal depth being ninety inches.

Bartheel of Carbondale, Colo., was appointed to the State Board of Water Commissioners for district 38, to succeed J. W. Zimmerman, who resigned recently. T. J. O'Donnell of Denver and Fred W. Stow of Fort Collins were reappointed to the State Commission for the Promotion of Uniform State Laws. Miss Elfreda Stebbins of Fort Collins was reappointed to the State Board of Library Commissioners, term to expire April 15, 1929. Steamboat Springs.—While the Republican candidate for mayor, Dr. F. E. Willett, was successful in the elections here, the Democrats carried the majority of the board of trustees, Dr. Willett defeated Edgar Cook, Democratic candidate, by thirty-one votes. Three Democrats took the two-year terms on as trustees, R. A. Armstrong, Charles Harwig and J. M. Kellogg. For one-year terms as trustees, H. E. Combs and Louis C. Fick, Republicans, and Roy Houston, Democrat, were elected. Oak Creek.—Dr. James Cole, a delegate to the national Republican convention, was defeated in the race for mayor on the Taxpayers' ticket by Frank Watt, running on the Citizens' ticket. Dr. Cole was defeated by twelve votes. Frank Lindell, Citizens and Samuel Glanville and Charles Murray, indorsed on both tickets, were elected as city trustees. Hugo.—Weldon H. Elliott, 70 years old, Parks, Ark., opened the vestibule door of a Union Pacific chair car near Aroyo, Colo., stepped from a speeding passenger train, and incurred a fracture of the skull which caused his death near here, as a second train was rushing him to Denver for medical attention. Denver.—The Colorado State Sunday school convention will be held in Denver May 6 to 9, inclusive, and plans are under way to make the 1924 session the most successful ever attempted. Canon City.—With the arrival in Canon City of six prisoners from Denver the population of the Colorado state penitentiary reached the highest total in its history. When the six new convicts were enrolled it brought the total up to 907 prisoners, according to an announcement by Warden Thomas Tynan. The number will be increased further sime time during the present week with the arrival of a number of additional prisoners from Denver, including several members of the bandit gangs that operated in that city. Fort Collins.—Attacked by an irate husband, with whose wife he is alleged to have been automobile riding, W. R. Reed, carpenter and contractor, was slashed in the left arm and thigh by Henry H. Sparks, a barber, when Sparks found Reed sitting in a machine near the Colorado & Southern depot here. Colorado Springs.—Colorado Springs will become the headquarters for research work in tuberculosis in America, with the establishment here of the Colorado Society for Research in Tuberculosis, articles of incorporation for which were filed with the secretary of state. Denver.—Raymond Ballard of Deer Trail, representing Arapahoe county, and Jessie Campbell of Pueblo won the state wide oratorical contest, obtaining first and second places respectively. Gold medals were awarded to both. Bernice Jensen of Mount Harris, Routt county, La Veta Randall of Eagle county, and Henry Bagwell of La Junta, Otero county, are the three best elementary school spellers in the state, having finished in the order named. The students have organized a permanent society to be known as Coloradoans. THE SCHOOL The St. Rose Branch of the Holy Name Society, Springfield, Kentucky the oldest Colored Holy Name Society in the United States.

(Prepared. by the United Mates Department of Agriculture) Virginia housewives, inspired by the efforts of their home demonstration agents, haye been sprucing up their kitchens and competing with each oth- er in putting in conventences and labor-saving devices at small cost. The prize-winning kitchen in Albe- marle county was improved for a total cash outlay of only $3.70, most of which was spent for paint and three new window shades. The woman who won the prize did all of the work herself with the exception of a little help from one of the men in the fam- “fly in making a table and altering the doors to the kitchen. Details of Improvements, * "Some of the improvements this wom- fitnade may offer suggestions to oth- er housewives. In a report received Hby the United States Department of Agriculture, the following details were given: She filled in cracks and breaks in the walls and celling with plaster of paris, and then tacked gray building paper on them. This was treated with cream-colored wall paint. Cracks in the floor were filled and the whole olled. With the man's help, windows were cased and old doors were made over and painted. A little old table was braced, enameled white, and fitted with casters, to serve as a tea wagon. ‘An old food safe was painted white and put on casters. The woodbox was raised on legs, to be reached more easily, and the whole painted. A child's chair was made into a kitchen stool. On the back of the kitchen door a shelf rack was made for brooms and the mop, which had large nickel rings from old curtains screwed into their ends to serve as hangers, Three new window shades were purchased at a cost of $1.80, the largest single expenditure. Perhaps the most unusual Improve- ment in thig kitchen was the making of a sink out of an old dishpan, which ECONOMICAL PLAN TO USE ALL LEFT-OVERS Cut Off and Reserve Tail- Ends of All Meats. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) If you know the tail-ends of steak or chops will not be eaten, why not cut them off before serving and reserve them for’a stew, hash, meat balls, or other “made” dish at another meal? It is economical to cut meat inte indl- vidual portions before serving and keep the part not needed at the meal out of sight in the kitchen, where it will not tempt the appetite unneces- oe. ; nee ie Se Left-Overs Made Into Meat Balls. sarily. Meat left-overs kept too long and allowed to spoll ure « total loss. Remember also that overcooked meat js often wasted meat. Fuel saying Is often food saving, the United States Department of Agriculture reminds us. ‘Another thrifty {dea 1s to make a good deal of gravy after cooking a roast as many of the good meat ex- tractives are in the roasting pan. Save what gravy 1s not served at table to warm up the left-over slices for use fn a “shepherd's ple,” to thicken cro- quettes, or to combine with vegetables, macaroni, or noodles. Will Clean Brushes Cornmeal will clean hair brushes quite as well as ammonia and there js no danger of injury to the back of the brush, ‘Take a cupful of cornméal ‘and fill the brush, rubbing the bristles gently with the hand. As it becomes Giscotored from absorbing the grease shake it out and replace it with fresh meal until the brush is clean. was enameled blue and cemented to a shelf built over an old drain pipe. A hole large enough to hold the stopper was cut In the bottom of the pan and through the shelf, and lined with ce ment. This connected with the drain pipe. ‘There was not enough room for un adequate drain board, but a small one was improvised so that the water would drain back Into the dishpan sink. A lower shelf was put in to hold the water bucket. Handy Work Table. A work table about three feet wide and six feet long was designed and built from old lumber. One end was Set against the kitchen wall, and the other had two. drawers fitted: with glass knobs salvaged from an old piece of furniture In the attic. A set of movable shelves was placed about two feet back of the drawers, allow- Ing a convenient work space, while the other end of the table is used as a dining-table for the family. On these shelves were set containers for groceries made from lard cans, bak- Ing-powder tins, and other boxes, enameled blue and neatly arranged. Cookbooks and glass Jars for other supplies completed the shelves. The work table was painted white and given a coat of waterproof varnish. An ingenious place for small equipment that could be hung up, such as basting spoons, potato masher and egg beater, was made of a rack for buggy whips, also enameled blue, which was found in the store formerly run by the family. A lamp with a tin reflector was changed from {ts former position and placed to throw light over the stove. ‘The fixture was palnted to match the wall. A rack was placed back of the tove from which to hang frying pans. A towel rack was placed near the stove and another back of the door. Little changes of this sort often mean a great gaving of effort and time in doing the housework. GRAPE JUICE USED TO MAKE DESSERTS Also Favored as Flavoring for Beverages. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Grape Juice, whetner canned com: mercially or at home, can be used for a number of delicious desserts, as well as for a refreshing beverage. The following dessert recipes, using unfer- mented grape juice, have been sug- gested by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture! Grape Sherbet. Mix 1 pint of grape juice, the Juice of 1 lemon, and 1 heaping teaspoon- ful of gelatin dissolved in boiling wa- ter; freeze quickly, add the beaten white of 1 egg when almost frozen. ‘This quantity ts sufficient for elght persons. Grape Ice Cream. Mix 1 quart of grape Juice, 1 quart of cream, 1 pound of sugar and the Juice of 1 lemony Freeze. Syllabub. Mix 1 quart of fresh cream, the whites of 4 eggs, 1 glass of grape Julee, and 2 cupfuls of powdered sugar. Whip half the sugar with the cream, the balance with the eggs; mix well; add the grape Juice; pour over sweet- ened strawberries and pineapples or oranges and bananas. Serve cool. Bohemian Cream. ! Mix one pint of thick cream and 1 pint of grape juice Jelly; pour Into small cups and set on foe, Serve with lady fingers. Test for Eggs U3 Botled eggs which adhere to the shell are fresh. A good egg will sink in water. Stale eggs are glassy and smooth of shell. The shell of a fresh ‘egg has a Imelike surface. A boiled egg which fs done and dries quickly on the shell when taken from the saucepan Is fresh.

For a supper dish there 1s nothing more sutisfying than a good hot dish of milk tonst. ‘Those who study the proper diet for the child tell us that cereals should never be served with sugar, but use in- stead n few dates, prunes, figs or Tuls- ins to furnish the sugar. The skins of the fig, dute and prune, the seeds of the fig, the woody fiber of the date add bulk to the food and furnish roughage which 1s needed to keep the digestive tract in good working order. ‘The child who is well- nourished with good food, fruit, dried or fresh, will not crave candy. Simple puddings like the bread pud- ding, with egg, served with cream and Uttle cubes of jelly to, add to its at- tractiveness, or with half a peach or pear served on top, make a good des- sert. ‘The child is an individual, so all foods, even when wholesome, may not agree or appeal to the child. {ts wise to teach him while young to eat and enjoy all foods that are good and wholesome, so that when he becomes a man he may be a normal eater and a pleasure to those who have to supply the food for lis enjoyment.

Every one must have a new hat for Easter, which comes too late this year to allow anyone to get by with a last season's hat. Many women are indulging in their second purchases, changing from early spring to summer millinery. Among the most popular shapes are those directly descended from the small close-fitting cloche, which has had a long reign in the realm of mill- 11.10 linery. With its crown a little higher and its brim a trifle wider it reappears in lovely spring models like that shown at the top of the group of hats pictured. This hat has a sectional crown in which black taffeta and haircloth alternate and a plain taffeta brim. A short wreath of flowers, petals and shining rose follage give it color and sparkle and all are veiled with a square black veil of delicate mesh with chain-stitch embroidery for a border. Fashion approves these semidress hats for all-round wear and they T are much in the company of tailored suits. At the right a clever piece of designing appears in a silk hat with braid facing. The taffeta covering seems to merge into big roses made of folds of the silk and set about the crown. One can imagine it in any of those colorful taffetas that so delight designers. Just below it a favorite tailored type shows narrow black braid stitched to a white silk foundation. A ribbon collar run through steel buckles finishes it. Moire ribbon is lavishly used on the handsome Napoleon hat at the lower left of the picture. It is woven in basket fashion and folded into points to form a covering for the upturned brim, finished with rosettes at each side. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. (©, 1924, Western Newspaper Union.)
