THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY DISPLAY OF RARE ABILITY BY OUR GRADUATES FROM GRADED SCHOOL TO UNIVERSITY. SHORTER CHURCH SUNDAY. JUNE 22ND W. D. Fountain, D.V.S. Delivers Masterly Address to His Young Associates Before Large and Critical Audience VOL. XXX DISPLAY OF RARE GRADUATES FROM TO UNIVERSITY. SUNDAY, JUNE 22 W. D. Fountain, D.V.S. Deli Young Associates Critical LADIES and Gentlemen: This little address is similar to a great many you have heard and will hear as the years go by. But by repetition of certain facts and fundamentals, these abstract things are made a part of our souls. In this age of big business where co-operation is the keystone, we hear so much about the value of working together. You may have in mind the larger corporations such as oil companies, railroads or the like, but I wish to call to your attention the first co-operation that was formed. This dates back to the time of Adam and Eve in the year one. From then until now these unions have been the nuclei for larger co-operations. Therefore, I wish to start with the home as the initial starting point of co-operation. In the establishment of the home there were fundamental ideas, dreams and motives that these two persons had in mind. Probably first was protection, next companionship, and third co-operation, whereby all other things were added thereto. And as this co-operation prospered new stockholders were added to this happy union. Under the guidance of the officers were reared and taught the fundamentals of good citizenship. Roosevelt once said "That America's best crop was its children." Therefore it is necessary to intelligently cultivate and harvest the universal product. So folks, it is essential to start from the cradle and train these lives so that when they are men and women they will bear good fruit and the world will be a better place to live in. In a recent report of the attorney general of the United States was the glaring evidence of the lack of early training. This was shown by the statistics of the crime wave sweeping the United States, most of the criminals being youths ranging in age from 18 to 24 years. So dads, it is up to you to be better chums to your sons and mothers better pals of your daughters. Start early and win the confidence of your children. You can do it just as well as your neighbor. Go to church, take the boy fishing or to a ball game and be interested in his welfare. Man is a creature of habit so if the father set the example, usually the son follows in his footsteps. Take enough time out at home to help him with his daily problems and do not show that indifferent attitude. I suppose you all know what indifference leads to—usually to distinction of an enterprise; the capsizing of fond hopes, and finally the remains of a battered shell of a willing life cast upon the rocks of despair and degradation. Children are your agents and upon them are placed those things of which the world will judge you. I have often heard this story, "Isn't John a splendid chap? He is simply wonder- State Hist & Nut Hist Society State House FOR THE ONLY RELIANCE COLORA ABILITY BY OUR M GRADED SCHOOL SHORTER CHURCH 2ND vers Masterly Address to His Before Large and Audience ful. I certainly would like to meet his folks, for I know they are splendid people." Or the reverse may be true. "Look at Sam; I knew he would never amount to much. His folks were never energetic." And so this is the way of the world. And as Cowyser has stated: "Men deal with life as children with their play, their play, Who first misuse, then cast their toys away." Mothers, sing on. Your voice may not be heard in legislative halls. We may never know your name, but you may have upon your knee a Grace Darling, a Dunbar, a Florence Nightingale, or a Booker T. Washington to lift or inspire this old world. So as this world moves on let us all do our bit. Show lots of enthusiasm; play this life according to the Golden Rule. And I am sure that in that supreme day Truth shall spring up bearing tribute to other weary hearts. And over a life of service, sacrifice and patience, time will have no power. Negro Will Race for Congress in Illinois District Black Will Be Democrat Candidate First Time New York, June 23.—A Negro will be the Democratic candidate for Congress from the First Illinois district where Representative Martin B. Madden, Republican, is running for reelection. This unprecedented step in Democratic annals was taken with the sanction of George E. Brennan, Democratic boss of Chicago, after the fitness of James Doyle, nominated at the primaries, forced him from the race. Earl B. Dickerson, a Chicago Negro, was agreed upon as the party candidate at a meeting of the Illinois state committee held here Sunday. He is assistant corporation counsel In Chicago, a university graduate, member of the American Legion and a leader of his race in Illinois. The selection of Dickerson was dictated by the political situation in the district, which has a large Negro population. A Negro running against Madden in the Republican primaries polled 6,000 votes against 9,000 for Madden. In politics the southern Negro plays the part of minnow to the fish. He is used as bait to catch the northern Negro's vote. in History (By United Press.) ABLE PEOPLE'S PA ADO THE JOURNAL DENVER, COLORADO, SA DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1924 Liberians to Keep Garvey Out by Force Africans Will Shed Last Drop of Blood to Prevent Landing of Agitator By Major A. H. Butler, Chief of Detectives of Liberia Liberia, W. Africa, June 4.—The delegates of Marcus Garvey were not officially received by the president of Liberia on their visit here—nor have there been any official assurance given them for allowing them any space in Liberia. Liberia is in reality a home for free Negroes, but having already a two millions of undeveloped and uneducated population, there is no ery to the American Negroes to come here to build up Liberia. What we require in this country is financial assistance and missions to extend their operations to Liberia in such a way as to help educate the 2,000,000 of uneducated people already in Liberia. We do say that we are in need of wealthy Negroes of the Faulkner type who have money and can carry on independent operations of their own, but to say that Liberia holds out a helping hand and are asking that American Negroes come here to develop the country, is only one of the many lies of Marcus Garvey. We in Liberia are tired out of our life reading large dumps of The Negro World in which appear articles misleading to the American Negro, which goes to give them an idea that they have been asked or would be welcomed in coming to Liberia to help develop it. These articles that appear on the front pages of the Negro World concerning Liberia are lies. Offers $10,000 I offer $10,000 to Marcus Garvey if he can product a single letter from President King giving him the permission to land his immigrant in Liberia. There are enough people in Liberia to develop the small area of land under control and Liberia is sufficiently developed without Marcus Garvey and his disciples. We are not going to stomach the things Marcus Garvey is doing in America, in Liberia, nor are his followers who appear to be blinded to their own interests going to take control of Liberia, a country for which our forefathers bled and died. 100 Howard Students Pullman Porters 100 Howard Students Pullman Porters Washington, D. C., June 19.—The employment bureau of the University Y. M. C. A. has secured jobs for forty-nine students, with the Pullman Company. Forty-nine out of 112 who applied were accepted. This is a representative number, excluding the 51 old service students, who were reinstated to eke out a season for the next school year's financing. These students will run from many sections of the great system, to nearly all points of the country. The average Pullman porter earns from four to six hundred dollars during the summer season. Aside from the money earned, the value of the experiences of travel, and sociological survey, such a season is of invaluable worth to a college student. Offers $10,000 Threats Follow Action of Alton, Ill. School Board St. Louis, Mo., June 19.—Because the valedictorian was a race boy, police protection was necessary at the commencement exercises of the graduating class of the Alton High school, held in the school auditorium there last week. The youth, Alexander Whitfield, 17, was awarded the honor on the basis of highest scholastic record for the four years he attended the high school. Announcement of the award was made two weeks ago. Since that time a great deal of discussion has been occasioned by the award, and the principal of the school, Wm. H. Wheeler, has received a number of anonymous letters threatening to break up the graduating exercises should the boy be allowed to hold the honor. The letters were disregarded, but a request was made for police protection, and nine police officers, some in civilian clothes, were scattered about the auditorium and outside the building. The expected trouble failed to materialize, however, and Whitfield was allowed to deliver his address undisturbed. The anonymous letters and adverse comment were said to have come from sources outside the school, and a last-minute attempt last night to have the male members of the class refuse to appear on the platform during the exercises also failed. Ninety boys and girls, seven of whom were colored, were graduated from the school and the exercises were witnessed by approximately 300 persons, of which number about 5 per cent were colored. Seven Men Freed When White Boy Tells the Truth Seven Men Freed When White Boy Tells the Truth Little Rock, Ark.. June 20.—After they had been severely beaten and tortured seven Race men, arrested in connection with the kidnapping and whipping of Milton Childers, 16-year-old white boy, were dismissed Saturday after police claim the boy failed to identify any of them as his assailants. The men were held since Wednesday night and were not allowed to see relatives or have anything to eat. All this was done in an attempt to make them confess a crime they knew nothing about. Childers was severely whipped by some men of our Race, it is said, after he had made insulting remarks to a woman who stands high in church circles here. He at first stated that he knew no reason for the attack, but later confessed to the police that he had molested a woman of our Race. No other arrests have been made in connection with the case and no clues as to the assailants have been reported. Poro Idea Marches to Chicago Chicago, Ill., June 18,—(By A. N. P.) Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Malone, founder and president respectively of Poro College, St. Louis, Mo., have brought to "Honeyed Words" For many reasons the Republican national convention which met at Cleveland last week may be considered as the greatest within the history of the party. To the Negro, its success is still questionable. The seating of thirty-six Negro delegates and the conspicuous representation of Perry Howard and Henry Lincoln Johnson would seem to indicate a new day for the Negro in ranks of the Grand Old Party. But after the din of battle; after the mind has had time to deliberate, we become aware of our precarious political condition. The federal anti-lynching law is the only proposal for the Negro's welfare. This single plank is considered sufficient consideration to win over 12,000,000 of Negroes. Had the Republican party not made such a pitiful failure in the last Congress to pass a federal anti-lynching law, we would have some hope for the future. The national committee, party leaders, and even the chief executives, have shown a disposition to ignore the merits of the bill. Why do they became staunch supporters of this bill over night? Because of all the planks favoring the Negro, the anti-lynching plank offered the least effrontery to the Negro-hating South. Judging from the past, there is no assurance that this plank will ever be made law. So far as the Cleveland convention is concerned, the Colored citizen has been promised very little indeed. His spokesmen have been permitted to make great speeches, which seem to be about all he'll get out of it so far as the G. O. P. is concerned. The Negro voter has ceased to listen to "honeyed words" spoken by Negroes or white men. He is demanding that all complimentary phrases be translated into worth-while deeds. He realized that a party that has nothing but honeyed promises to make is not the party to support. The announcement of a third party with Senator La Follette at the helm will be made next week. The Negro vote will especially appeal to it. The Democrats are attracting thousands of Negro votes in New York state and elsewhere. In the meantime the G. O. P. continues to hand out "honeyed words"—Pittsburgh American. this city their idea of having Poro workers aid worthy causes in the cities in which they are located. The method in St. Louis has been to have the workers at the college give plays and other entertainments, the proceeds of which were given to needy institutions and individuals. The first such program in Chicago was given Tuesday night at the Pilgrim Baptist Temple, the Rev. S. E. J. Watson, pastor, for the benefit of the temple, and under the direction of Mrs. Malone. Poro workers filled the fine listed program which, besides musical numbers, included an excellent showing of moving pictures of the Far West taken by Mr. and Mrs. Malone on the occasion of a recent visit to points near and beyond the Rockies. A college similar to the one of St. Louis has also been opened in this city at 4411 Grand Boulevard. NO. 37. Japanese Refuses Diploma Because of Exclusion Act Chester, Pa., June 19.—Kuranoske Fujil, a Japanese student at Crozer Theological Seminary, refused a diploma at the commencement exercises, although his name was included among the graduates. In a letter written to Dr. Milton Evans, president of the school Fujil said: "Since the Japanese Exclusion Bill we Japanese students begin to ask ourselves when Christianity has ever got a real spiritual and moral power on the general policy of the nation. So long as an exclusion measure is imposed upon us in the so-called Christian country or nation, the American missionary work in Asia will have the most difficult situation with regard to teaching of Christianity to the natives, and to be sure the intelligent people of Asia will make mock of such an undertaking." Y. M. C. A. NOTES The chairman, Mr. L. H. Lightner, has returned from the big church meeting in Springfield, Mass., where he has been attending the General Conference of the M. E. Church as a delegate from the Topeka district. He reported having had a wonderful time. While he was away also he visited several of the large Y. M. C. A. buildings in different cities, and also the headquarters of the Inter-National Committee in New York. He confirmed what many have already said, namely, that while most of the buildings are larger by one story than our own, none of them will surpass ours in its beauty and construction. We are urging our people who have not yet paid their pledges to do so at once, since the work cannot be carried on without the proper funds. Of the $13,000 subscribed in the drive, nearly $5,000 is still due. It is needless to say that this sum would assist very greatly in the work of the new building at this time, and we cordially hope that our friends will not longer delay with their payments. COLLEGE AND HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES ENTERTAINED BY STEWARDESS BOARD AT SHORTER CHURCH With the graduates of the various colleges as their guests on Sunday night and the High School graduates on Monday night the Stewardess Board of Shorter A. M. E. Church did a lovely part by our ambitious, struggling youth who have just finished the school term. Splendid programs were rendered on each occasion and the students gave every evidence of their high appreciation. During the serving of refreshments at the Monday night function community singing was indulged in to the delight of all. Mrs. O. W. Glenn was in charge of the program on each occasion. FOREIGN Jan Christian Smuts, premier of the Union of South Africa, whose South African party was defeated in the recent elections, has resigned the premiership. That Mallory and Irvine, members of the British expedition to the roof of the world, atop Mount Everest, were overwhelmed by an avalanche at an altitude of 27,000 feet is the general belief of Alpinists in London. Former Premier General-Jan Christian Smuts and the South African party have been defeated in the Union of South Africa general election upon the face of incomplete returns received in Capetown. An appeal addressed to "the entire Japanese nation" not to molest Americans now in Japan was published over the signature of the Talkosha, or "great forward society," in seven leading newspapers of Japan. New ways to a peace understanding in Europe, with the experts' report on reparations figuring prominently were discussed at Chequers court, London, by the British prime minister, Ramsay MacDonald, and the French premier, Edouard Herrlot. Archbishop Edward Hanna of San Francisco, who has been visiting Rome, will sail home September 10. He will leave Rome by motor for Florence and then will go by slow stages to Lourdes, Paris and later to England and Ireland. Private Marcus Dinwiddle of the District of Columbia National Guard, broke the world record at Rhelms for 22-caliber rifle marksmanship, shooting in the international match which precedes the Olympic competition. Dinwiddle, who is 17 years old, scored 396 out of a possible 400. The United States is not only willing but anxious to assist Europe in pushing the settlement of her reparations problem but does not intend to participate in any political difficulties overseas, a spokesman for President Coolidge said in Washington in commenting on the proposed interallied conference in London next month to consider means of putting the Dawes plan into effect. Under threat that he would bombard the city of Wanhslen, on the Yangtze river in Shechwan province, the commander of the British gunboat Cockchafer compelled the highest military leaders there to walk to the cemetery in full uniform behind the casket containing the body of Edwin C. Hawley, the American killed there by Chinese junkmen, and to attend the burial service for him. The first photograph ever transmitted by radio was printed a few days ago in the Paris Matin. The picture, of Gen. Gustave A. Ferrie, director of the Eifel tower wireless station, was an excellent one, but it bore several vertical smudges, which, however, were easily eliminated by retouching. The picture was sent by the process of Edouard Belin, the inventor of the method for transmitting pictures and photography by wire. GENERAL The world record for sustained flight in a seaplane—11 hours and 57 minutes—was beaten by Naval Lieut. F. W. Wead and J. D. Price in Washington. Lieut. John A. MacReady, veteran of the American non-stop cross-country flight, escaped death by making a parachute jump from his airplane when it burst into flames at an altitude of 1,500 feet, near Dayton, Ohio. A violent windstorm, which reached a velocity of fifty-two miles an hour, swept the southern section of Omaha a few days ago, unroofing buildings, leveling light and telephone wires and wrecking a number of houses. Several persons were hurt. Property damage was heavy. There was some loss of livestock. The $10,000,000 Agricultural Credit Corporation has made loans to more than 200 Northwest banks, which have aggregate deposits of more than $30,000,000, it was announced in Minneapolis. B. H. Bigelow, millionaire president of the Brown-Bigelow Company, lithographers, printers and wholesale manufacturers of advertising novels, was sentenced to two years in Leveneworth penitentiary and had to pay a fine of $10,000, when he appeared before Judge W. A. Cant in the United States District Court at St. Paul, Minn., and pleaded guilty to defrauding the government out of $148,000 in income taxes. Louise Drafka of New London, Wis., who is said to hold the key to the solution of the mystery of the whereabouts of $3,000,000 loot of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul mall train holdup near Rondout, Ill., was held by a United States commissioner at Chicago in $25,000 bail to appear with the eight men now under arrest in connection with the crime. A motion to use $20,000 taken from the woman when she was arrested as bond money was denied. The first session of the Democratite national convention in New York adjourned with a resolution in memory of Woodrow Wilson. The resolution was drawn by Senator Glass of Virginia, one of the former President's friends, and introduced by Mrs. Frank Reeves of Washington state. More than a score of deaths and property damage estimated at upward of $3,000,000 is the result in three states of the hot wave and the storm which swept through the Mississippi and Ohio valleys, bringing lowered temperatures. AN EPITOME OF LATE LIVE NEWS CONDENSED RECORD OF THE PROGRESS OF EVENTS AT HOME AND ABROAD FROM ALL SOURCES SAYINGS, DOINGS, ACHIEVE MENTS, SUFFERINGS, HOPES AND FEARS OF MANKIND WESTERN A verdict of guilty of first degree murder was returned in Roswell, N. M., by a jury in the District Court against Mrs. Fred Halsey, Luther Foster and Claude Archer in connection with the slaying of Fred Halsey, ranchman. Mrs. Halsey is the widow of the slain man. Horace Greer is going back to work for Mabel Normand. That Greer, acquitted by a jury of ten women and two men of shooting Courtland S. Dines and out on ball on a charge of possessing intoxicating liquors, will return as chauffeur to the famous film star was reported in Los Angeles. A direct descendant of the Spanish conquistadores, Mrs. Soledad Chacon, became governor of the state of New Mexico when Governor James Hinkle passed over the state boundary en route to the Democratic national convention in New York. The succession of Mrs. Chacon was brought about by the death of Jose Baca, the lieutenant governor. She was secretary of state. Lieutenant Maughan's epoch-making feat in flying across the continent brought to the people of San Francisco a thrill they will long remember. Shouts from thousands of throats arose to greet the filer as his plane soared over the city from across the bay. It was the first time anyone had come to eat supper in the city of the Golden Gate who had eaten his breakfast the same morning in New York. Construction of the Wyoming North & South railroad from Casper to Miles City, Mont., will be carried to completion in the "shortest practicable time," it is stated in a message received in Casper by Charles S. Hill, vice president of the railroad, from F. D. Sakintvala, president of the Middle States Oil Corporation. The latter has charge of the financing program. The message was inspired by reports from Sheridan, Wyo., that engineering forces had been laid off and work suspended for this year. WASHINGTON Congratulations were sent by Major General Patrick, chief of the army air service, to Lieutenant Maughan at San Francisco immediately upon the completion of the transcontinental flight. The treasury will be ready July 1 to refund more than $16,000,000 overpaid in income taxes March 15 as a result of the subsequent 25 per cent reduction granted by Congress. Comptroller General McCarl advised the treasury that it may use any funds appropriated for repayment of illegally collected taxes and Secretary Mellon immediately laid plans for paying back the extra 25 per cent turned in by 1, 085,000 persons. When the case of Capt. Robert Rosenbluth and Roland H. Pothier, accused of the murder of Maj. Alexander P. Cronkhite at Camp Lewis in 1918, was called in the United States District Court at Tacoma, Wash., for assignment of a trial date it was indicated they will be tried in September or October. The actual fixing of the day for trial was postponed pending the arrival of James W. Osborne, special prosecutor for the government. Veterans of the World war from all parts of the United States gathered in Salt Lake City to work out, in the fourth annual convention of the disabled veterans of the World war, solutions to problems involving the livelihood and happiness of the disabled ex-service man. Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer has resigned as personal physician to the President. The action was taken, it was explained, so that he could return to Marlon, Ohio, and devote his attention to the Harding Memorial Association. The resignation was accepted by President Coolidge. The government closed its fiscal year on June 30 with an excess of receipts over expenditures for the year of $498,000,000, or about $170,000,000 more than was estimated last fall. In spite of the enactment of soldiers' bonus legislation involving large expenditure, the fiscal year 1925 will show an excess of receipts over expenditures of $60,000,000, instead of the huge deficit at one time predicted by the treasury. President Coolidge and William M. Butler, chairman of the Republican national committee, were in conference on board the Mayflower to smooth out party friction which developed at the Cleveland convention. Participating in the Mayflower conference, also were Secretary of State Hughes, Charles B. Warren, the United States ambassador to Mexico, who framed the Republican platform; Secretary of Commerce Hoover; Secretary of Labor Davis; J. H. Rohrback, Republican national committeeman from Connecticut. LATE NEWS From All Over COLORADO Denver.—The prospects for an increased production of honey in Colorado in 1924 are very favorable. The bees are now swarming and reports to the State Immigration Department are to the effect that the number of colonies will be much larger than last year. Montrose.—John W. Wood, a rancher living in the Sanborn park district, shot and killed Fred J. Dobler, a prominent business man and rancher of Nucla, Colo., when Dobler failed to obey Wood's order to remove a fence he was building on some land Wood formerly had owned. Boulder.—Goods and cash amounting to more than $1,000 and a wrecked coupe are the result of a raid by burglars who ransacked the entire business district of Niwot, Colo., near here. With the exception of the Niwot State Bank, the prowlers entered practically every establishment in the town. Central City.—William Christensen, 17-year-old Buffalo, N. Y., youth, was found dead on a mountain slope on the Bingham ranch, east of Black Hawk, a rifle bullet through his brain. Investigating authorities are convinced that the boy was not a suicide and believe the gunshot was accidental. Pueblo.—Posing as a representative of an alleged fake "Ohio Oil Company," C. E. Lee, former Denver man, is held by the Pueblo police in connection with wholesale passing of alleged bogus checks, amounting to more than $1,000, according to police. Lee has confessed his bunco activities, police said. Pagosa Springs.—The little sons of M. R.

Colorado Springs. — Construction work to make a state highway out of the old Busk-Ivanhoe tunnel and abandoned Colorado Midland roadbed between Leadville and Glenwood Springs was started last week, according to Ernest Montgomery, division engineer of the State Highway Department. The short cut road, one of the most remarkable in the state, will be ready for traffic by Aug. 1, the engineer stated. The fifth division crews will take up the ties to the east portal, while the remaining work, including the tunnel to Leadville and stretch to Glenwood Spring via Frying Pan river, will be under the direction of H. L. Jenness, sixth district engineer. Kiowa.—W. J. Wilder, a government hunter for the eradication of predatory animals, last week bagged twenty-three coyotes in the vicinity of Comanche Center community. Wilder's total of slain coyotes last year was 180. Ranchers in this section have suffered large losses of cattle and poultry through the depredations of the animals. Denver.—Colorado has passed Florida, Georgia and Texas and now ranks second only to California as a cantaloupe producing state, according to W. W. Putnam, agricultural statistician. Cantaloupe growing is a comparatively new industry in this state and last year's production of 1,078,000 crates does not nearly represent Colorado's possibilities. Denver.—Visitors to Mesa Verde National park have increased by 45 per cent, and if the present rate continue, 10,000 will have visited it before the season is over, according to a report from Superintendent Jesse Nusbaum. New roads and trails have been beaten through the park, and the road from Mancos to the cliff ruins has been shortened eight miles by the opening of the knife-edge road. Denver.—The national park service has announced that the Fall River road through Rocky Mountain National park is open for travel. A crew of twenty men started work on snow removal on May 13, and have been steadily on the job for more than a month. A five days' storm, that ended on May 30, piled up from three and a half feet to five feet of new snow at Fall River pass and added tremendously to the amount of work to be done. The Fall River road connects Estes park with Grand lake and is one of the highest roads in the country. CENTENNIAL STATE ITEMS Denver.—Industrial employment conditions are on an upward trend, particularly indicated in building, general construction, manufacturing and agriculture, according to a recent report made by the U. S. Employment Service of the U. S. Department of Labor. Resident labor of nearly all classes is quite fully employed, with slight shortages of building mechanics, experienced metal miners, and efficient farm hands existing; there is, however, a moderate surplus of common labor. Sugar beet field work is affording employment to several thousand workers and approximately 100 additional beet workers are needed in the Sugar City district. Increased demand for general farm hands exists in Boulder county. Metal mining and developments continue fairly active; a sufficient supply of common mine labor is available in all metal mining camps. Skilled miners can find employment in practically every mining camp in this state. Oil developments in the Fort Collins and Craig districts are slowly proceeding and a surplus of labor for this class of work exists. Construction on the six-mile Moffat railway tunnel is progressing rapidly and affords employment to about 400 workers at the present time. Almost all industrial plants, other than seasonal, continue running at capacity, more particularly those manufacturing building materials, steel, iron, and sheet-metal products, and mining machinery. A great number of men are engaged on highway construction; contracts for eleven additional miles of surfacing and paving were let during the past thirty days. Railway shop employment is steady, and additional labor for track work is being employed by the railroads. Fountain.—Fountain dedicated its new $55,000 high school with appropriate ceremonies for the laying of the cornerstone in which the grand lodge of Colorado Masons participated. Among those present were E. P. Hufferd, L. W. Cunningham and the Rev. Raymond B. Norton. Hufford acted in place of the grand master, Judge Wiley of Del Norte, who was unable to be present. The Rev. Mr. Norton was the orator for the occasion, speaking of the relation between Free Masonry and education and the support the Masons have always given to institutions of learning. There were several hundred persons in attendance, including representatives of the grand lodge of Masons from Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo. Fort Morgan.—A plague of grass-hoppers is causing damage to farm crops in some parts of Morgan county. The recent warm weather has brought out a horde of young hoppers, which are now thicker in some parts of the county than has ever been known before. North of town they have attacked the alfalfa chop and unless something happens to halt their work an intensive poisoning campaign will be necessary. Near Orchard the hay has been cut to save it from the ravages of the swarms of hoppers. Fred Liebsock, near Orchard, reports the loss of thirty-three acres of beets and William Van Pelt of the same neighborhood reports the loss of eight acres of sugar beets. Fort Morgan.—A government study of the costs of irrigation and its return to the farmer, made with the view of determining the exact extent to which the government can afford to reclaim arid lands by means of irrigation, is being made in the Riverside Irrigation district by three government experts working under the direction of R. P. Teele, agriculurel economist of the bureau of agricultural economics of the U. S. Bureau of Agriculture. Mr. Teele's associate in the work are B. O. Weltz of Washington, D. C., connected with the bureau of public roads of the Department of Agriculture, and P. A. Ewing of the bureau of agricultural economics of Berkeley, Calif. Denver.—Although the forest fire which was started by a camp fire carelessly allowed to continue burning after campers on the Berthoud pass had departed, was entirely surrounded by trenches danger of spreading is not yet over, according to word received in Denver from John McLaren, in charge of the work of putting out the fire, by Allen S. Peck, district forester for the United States forestry service. The fire had burned over more than 2,500 acres of forest land to the southeast of Idlewild station and south of the west portal of the Moffat tunnel. Approximately $30,000 damage was caused by the conflagration. Colorado Springs—The body of H. P. Talhelm, Rocky Ford taxi driver, whose automobile was found near here June 13, was discovered here in an irrigation ditch two miles from that city, according to a message to police here. Police assert that Talhelm had been murdered and his body thrown into the ditch. He was last seen June 12. Personal paper and letters addressed to him were later found on a bridge ten miles east of Pueblo. Central City.—William R. Christian of Buffalo, N. Y., found shot to death in a pasture on a ranch near Blackhawk, Colo., was slain by an unknown assassin according to the verdict of the coroner's jury here. The verdict was returned by the coroner's jury after hearing the tessalmony of six witnesses, one of whom was Jerome Lasher, also of Buffalo, who arrived here June 10 with Christian after hiking across country. No motive for the probable murder was ascertained during the Inquest which was held under the direction of Coroner Hamilich. A. B. T. G.

For one reason, it's a good thing. For another, President Coolidge has taken it. The President, suffering with a cold symptomatic of "rose fever," adopted a suggestion made to him by Secretary Weeks by taking the chlorine gas treatment with which army surgeons have been experimenting successfully for some months. The President sat in an air-tight room at the army dispensary for 45 minutes while the treatment was being administered, and read. While he sat in this room Lieut. Col. Mathew A. De Laney of the medical corps, attending surgeon in the District of Columbia, watched the flow of gas. He saw that the President got the full treatment and said afterward that he believed the President's cold would yield to the gas, which had cured stubborn colds of many officials, including Secretary Weeks. After the President returned to the executive offices he told his secretary, Bascom Slemp, that he was much better and felt greatly exhilarated. All PASTEUR, the great French scientist, in addressing an international congress in Italy, said that "Science has no nationality, because knowledge is the patrimony of humanity, the torch which gives light to the world." In his annual review of the work of the Rockefeller Foundation during the year 1923, President George E. Vincent tells an interesting story of what the foundation is doing to add to "the patrimony of humanity." By promoting the migration of scientists and administrators, he says, by helping to diffuse more rapidly new ideas, by strengthening world centers of teaching and research, in short, by fostering medical science and public health as forms of international co-operation, the Rockefeller Foundation seeks to fulfill the purpose of its charter, "the well-being of mankind throughout the world." In its varied activities the foundation expended during the year approximately $8,500,000. Of the total amount, $3,174,268 was expended in public health work, the largest item being $1,457,486 for the regular program of the international board of health in control of hookworm, malaria and yellow fever, and in county health and laboratory service. The PRESIDENT COOLIDGE, in the East Room of the White House the other day, presented to three good Americans the 1924 Roosevelt gold medals in recognition of "eminent services to the American people." These three good Americans were Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes of the United States Supreme court; Ellhu Root, former United States senator, former secretary of war and former secretary of state, and—by his proxy, Jerome D. Greene, the New York banker—Charles William Eliot, president emeritus of Harvard university. Holmes, soldier and jurist, is eighty-three; Root, administrator and treaty maker, is seventy-nine; Eliot, teacher and guide of youth, is ninety. The ceremony was so simple that it might have taken place in any American citizen's parlor, although fifty or more notables were present. On Judge Holmes, who was deeply affected, the President bestowed these gentle and beautiful phrases: "To you the medal for service in the development of public law. . . . President Roosevelt would have been peculiarly gratified to know that this medal now is yours. . . . During your long service on the Supreme bench, to which he summoned you early in his UNLESS the policy of the Interior department as to the creation of new national parks is changed as the result of the recent recreational conference in Washington, it will remain substantially as fixed by former Secretary Lane. A statement of the present policy of the department is contained in a letter addressed to Senator Fletcher of Florida by Secretary of Interior Work. It follows: "Under the theory and practice of the United States government since 1872, when Yellowstone National park was created, our national park system is made up of areas inclosing scenery of quality so unusual and impressive, or natural features so extraordinary as to possess national interest and importance as contra distinguished from local interest. Such outstanding examples of typical world architecture as the Grand canyon, exemplifying in unequalled grandeur the highest accomplishment of stream erosion, or the rugged portions of Mount Desert island in Maine, which are incorporated in the Lafayette National park, exemplifying unique rock forms in association with quite extraordinary eastern forests, com of the depression and lack of energy which accompanies a cold, he said, had disappeared. Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer, the White House physician, who is of the homeopathic school, accompanied the President to the army dispensary, but did not breathe any of the chlorine gas. Experimentation on the use of the chlorine gas as a cure for respiratory diseases was undertaken by the army medical corps in a serious manner as a result of an important discovery at the Edgewood arsenal in Edgewood, Md., at the time of the influenza epidemic in 1918. It was found that employees of the chlorine plant were practically free from the disease, which was rampant among employees of other divisions of the arsenal. The various medical bureaus at Washington have been for some time systematically studying "the common cold." Though familiarity in its case has bred contempt, it is a very dangerous disease in that it paves the way for others more immediately serious. A people without colds would show an extraordinary decrease in the death rate. school of public health at Harvard university received $618,750. Almost $5,000,000 was devoted to medical education, $1,354,942 going to the China medical board, $1,596,592 to the Canadian medical program, $621,472 to the London medical center and $1,046,925 to the University of Chicago. Miscellaneous expenditures amounted to $155,928, the greater part of that going to the national research council. The income of the foundation for the year accruing from investments was nearly $9,000,000. The foundation now has $165,291,624 in its principal funds and owns lands, buildings and equipment to the value of $8,663,816. In enumerating the many things that this organization accomplished in a year, Doctor Vincent lists first the supplying of fellowship funds for 636 individuals in 29 different countries, the support through the League of Nations of interchanging institutes for 54 public health officers from 27 nations and the arranging of international visits of one commission and of 24 visiting professors. "If the scientific 'patrimony of humanity' is to be protected and enlarged," says Doctor Vincent, "there must be no break in the continuity of investigators and teachers. Presidential term, you have, I think, almost unerringly interpreted the institutions and aspirations of your country with the liberality, the understanding and vision that would have unfailingly earned his approval." He closed with this description of Holmes' legal writing: "A monument imperishable and unforgettable." Root, the President addressed as "scholar, lawyer, statesmen, patriot, and gave him with the golden medal these golden words: "You have made America more American and humanity more humane. You have made more secure the peace of nations and more certain justice among men." Root's response was that he was made doubly happy by receiving the Roosevelt medal from a President who exemplified "Roosevelt's virtues of courage and loyalty." To Elliot's proxy, Greene, the President's words, as if spoken to Ellot, were: "This medal for leadership of youth and development of American character shall be yours. . . . You have made your long and beautiful life a very benediction. Yours has been a true and an especially impressive conception of the great business of living; you have been a guide in your time and a prophet of our future." pelled immediate recognition of national park values. "The national parks, therefore, must not be lowered in standard, dignity and prestige by the inclusion of areas which express in less than the highest terms the particular class or type of exhibit which they represent. "Size is not important so long as the proposed park includes within its boundaries those scenic elements that meet established standards, but the area must be susceptible of effective development to make it accessible to the people, and of convenient administration and control. Duplication of exhibits already in the national park system must be carefully avoided in order that the individuality of the members of the system may be maintained. "And when once established by the congress along well-studied boundary lines, they must be conserved in their natural state, untouched by the inroads of modern civilization so that coming generations, as well as the people of our own time, may be assured their use for the purposes of recreation, education and scientific research." SAINTS WHO MADE IMPRESS ON TIMES Four Most Worthy of the Honors Paid Them The neighbors spent a wonderful night, there awhile back in the green Verdugo hills. They were gathered together in the little gray house in the hollow that has the two big rocks behind it and the illac bush in front, writes John Steven McGroarty in the Los Angeles Times. And the talk that came up was about four great saints who have left their everlasting footprints on the sands of time. The way the talk about saints came up was that the man who reads the papers was saying that he had read a piece which said that in the house of parliament in London four great windows had been installed, and that on each window was a fine picture of a saint. On one window a picture of St. George of England, on the second St. David of Wales, on the third St. Andrew of Scotland, and on the fourth St. Patrick of Ireland. Now, this mere statement of itself, as you might say, was not of such a startling nature as to make a night wonderful for the neighbors in the green Verdugo hills or for anybody else. But, what did make the night wonderful was that our neighbor, the man who knows about the saints, was given the floor. And he told all that there is to tell, or nearly as much, anyway, about the four saints in whose honor windows have been put in the British parliament house. And it was a grand story. The story of great men who had labored and had spent their lives in the service of God, and of their fellowmen, which is the same thing. The torchbearers of the Wanderer of Gallilee in the isles of the Narrow Seas—that's what they were—George and David, Patrick and Andrew. Kings there have been in the isles of the Narrow Seas—many and many a king who wore jeweled crowns on their heads, and who sat on golden thrones. Kings, and queens also, some of them good and some of them bad, and some neither one nor the other. And there have been warriors in the isles of the Narrow Seas, and statesmen; money-changers have been there, as they still are there; and this man and that have been there, each having his little hour and his day. But it is George of the Dragon, gentle David of Wales, strong Andrew of Scotland, and noble Patrick of Ireland who are remembered most and who are most revered in the isles of the Narrow Seas. Torchbearers of Him who was slain on the bloody Tree of Calvary. It is they who are remembered best. Bricks of Molten Lava The problem of utilizing volcanic steam in industry has been well worked out by the Italian engineers, and if we ever tackle the job in the Yellowstone park we shall enjoy the benefit of the lessons they have learned. Apparently the conditions to be met are similar; but in the Yellowstone the available supply of steam is incomparably greater, so that the "puffing holes" of the Tuscany seem relatively insignificant. Boring for steam has been going on for more than a year near the crater of Kilauea, on the island of Hawaii, but the rock is basalt and extremely hard, so that the drills have not yet penetrated very far. It is said that the scheme in that locality does not promise very well. But the Hawaiian government has consulted the Department of Commerce about a plan, seemingly practicable, for making bricks of molten lava from the Kilauea crater. It is proposed to extend a trolley across the crater, carrying an endless chain of buckets, which would scoop up the liquid lava, fetch it to the rim of the fiery hole, and pour it into the molds.—New York Times. Gives Boy Scouts Camp A 40-acre tract at Careyhurst, located at the mouth of the little Boxelder canyon, Wyoming, has been presented for a permanent camp site to the boy scouts of Casper, Wyoming, by former Gov. Robert D. Carey of that state. The waters of Boxelder creek flow through the beautiful grounds. A game preserve is nearby. Plans for the camp buildings include a large mess hall, kitchen and camp headquarters, and ten patrol cabins. Governor Carey has also donated all the steel bunks needed for the cabins.

ATTORNEY GENERAL STONE FILES SUITS AGAINST FIFTY OIL FIRMS COMBINATION CHARGED VIOLATION OF ANTI-TRUST LAW AND RESTRICTING PRODUCTION CHARGED Chicago, — Anti-trust proceedings aimed at more than fifty of the principal oil companies of the United States, including all the Standard companies, were instituted by the government in Federal Court here. The action in equity, instituted by Attorney General Stone and filed in District Court here by Edwin Olson, United States district attorney, asks an injunction to restrain the companies named from further violation of the Sherman anti-trust act which is charged against them. Oil patent contracts of the Standard Oil Company of Indiana, cited by Attorney General Stone in his complaint, are entirely legal and honest, have been in effect for ten years and never before have been attached, Col. R. W. Stewart, chairman of the board of directors of the Indiana company, said in a formal statement commenting on the government's charges. He offered to present every contract to which his company is a party to the courts for adjudication as to their propriety and equity. The complaint charges that the oil companies combined to control gasoline production by pooling patent rights in violation of the anti-trust act, and also charged "a combination and conspiracy in restraint of trade and commerce among the several states and with foreign nations in gasoline, kerosene and other hydrocarbon products." Five companies were named as primary defendants in the action. They are the Standard Oil Companies or Indiana and New Jersey and the Standard Development Company, the Texas Company and the Gasoline Products Company. The other companies made a party to the action were termed "secondary defendants" and were charged with being in the combination as the result of accepting licenses from one or more of the primary defendants. Disabled Vets Applaud Hines Disabled Vets Applaud Hines Salt Lake City.—Gen. Frank T. Hines, director of the United States Veterans Bureau, was before the annual convention of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War here. The legislation recently passed by Congress affecting disabled men was thoroughly gone over and a remark made by General Hines that "not a doctor lives who can thoroughly determine a man's disability from a paper report," was cheered by the delegates. In addition to cheering his remarks they waved their crutches or canes in the air. Olympic Team Arrives in Paris Olympic Team Arrives in Paris Paris—Col. Robert M. Thompson, president of the American Olympic committee, and his chief of staff, Coach Lawson Robertson, led their peaceful American Olympic army into Paris. The composite athletic battalion arrived from Cherbourg and immediately went into camp at the chateau de Roquencourt, which one time belonged to that dashing Napoleon soldier, Prince Murat. The American athletes upon their arrival in Paris were greeted as "friend enemies," instead of potential conquerors. Eist Eight Staged at Convention New York.—A fist fight broke out in the Colorado delegation during the anti-Klan demonstration at the Democratic national convention, occasioned by an anti-Klan appeal in the speech of Porter Johnson in nominating Underwood. Dr. B. L. Jefferson of Steamboat Springs held the state standard. T. J. Early of Denver attempted to seize the standard from Jefferson, who resisted. Early struck at Jefferson, but missed. Len Rogers of Denver, sergeant-at-arms, seized Early, and Charles A. Ginsberg of Denver, an alternate, went to Early's aid. 1.250.000 Drug Addicts in U. S. Omaha, Neb.—America's greatest peril is the narcotic evil, Dr. M. M. Nielson of Salt Lake City, district governor of Utah and Idaho Lions, told the eighth annual convention of the International Association of Lions Clubs here. "Prohibition," he said, "important as it is, after all is a trivial matter compared to this traffic. At least 1,250,000 Americans today have fallen slaves to the drug habit. Noted Artist Jailed New York. — James Montgomery Flagg, the artist, who is on a honeymoon trip to the Pacific coast by automobile, has telegraphed to the New York Times of how he was detained by Sheriff Zook of Larned, Kan., because he answered the description of a man who had passed a worthless check. Mrs. Flagg was Miss Dorothy Virginia Wadman, who had posed as a model for many of Mr. Flagg's magazine cover illustrations. They were warrired here on May 10. --- THE COLORADO STATESMAN [Emblem] the Mouth-Piece the People of Colorado and the Entire West RELIABLE chronicle of their doings and gress; a faithful mirror their wants, their hopes, ir best aspiration.

Only 1-cent and 2-cent stamps INDEPENDENCE DAY IT IS WELL, for the security and stability of this nation, that the very first impression made upon the youthful mind centers around the noise, the glamor and spread eagle oratory of the Fourth of July. In our early life no other holiday carries so much significance as the firing of bombs and the spectacular display of fire works. Later on we learn that it is a celebration, the commemoration of an institution called the Declaration of Independence, the instrument by and through which the American nation had its birth. We then begin to know something of American history and to absorb the fact that this great document which was drawn up and duly signed by representatives of the people with unalloyed patriotism firing their hearts was not alone the signal bomb attesting the birth of American freedom and the end of British rule, but was indeed the beginning of time's mightiest republic, a government of the people and for the people. The one hundred and forty-eighth anniversary of the signing of this charter of liberty comes to us on Friday next, and we would be remiss of a very bounden duty were we not to patriotically enter the spirit of an occasion having such a direct bearing on human freedom and justice the world over. INDEPENDENCE DAY, born a century and a half ago, emanating from the very highest of human aspirations and serving now as grim reminder of imperishable achievement, when life, vigor and national honor were held sacred, should have a place in all the nations of the earth just now. The lack of self-assertiveness and the bending of the knee before strange powers has brought on many of the ills with which this old world of ours is now so sorely afflicted. And yet in the glory of our celebration we Americans are too apt to become provincial. We point to ours as the greatest republic in the world and with much justification. We must not forget, however, that the independence of which we are inclined to prate and boast is being dangerously tampered with today and tainted with strange doctrines concerning race, creed and class. The signing of the Declaration of Independence was in truth but a fitting foreword to the Constitution of the United States, and a celebration of such an event, entered into with the proper spirit would easily preclude the thought of such a monstrosity as an invisible empire having a place in our national life. In fact, it would be logical to contend that it was the presence of an invisible empire, with visible dire results, that caused our fathers to declare for national independence. Our great natal day this year will find us within the throes of political strife and bitterness. All is not harmony within our own domicile. On certain fundamentals we stand fairly close together, on others we are torn asunder. "Whither are we drifting?" is something more and beyond an easy quotation from the classics. It is a danger signal and must be heeded by all calling themselves American citizens if we would bring about greater unity and a more harmonious relationship among the various races and creeds of the nation. By no other means will the principles bidding us celebrate July 4th, be worthy of preservation. NEGRO BUSINESS MEN AND THE COLORED PRESS WHAT a gigantic success would be scored and what a greatness would be heralded throughout the country by our Negro Press if those who are in business would be charitable enough to give the press a fair return financially for the continued support it gives to them in the appeal to the public to patronize their enterprises. Though we fill comparatively a small percentage of the business element in Denver, yet we are proud to say that very fair patronage is given by our colored business men and women to the press in the form of subscription, advertisement, printing, etc., in Colorado, our greatest desire being to see an increase in our population so that better and brighter things may obtain. While we are successful as a city and state in this particular, information reaches us from reliable and authentic sources that this is rather the exception than the rule, and the statistics furnished us compel the admission of this fact. It will not do to be content with the idea of race pride, protection, co-operation, etc., without using the means to accomplish the ends, of which there can be no greater, larger and better than the PRESS. We had the pleasure of listening to a noted lecturer, who showed the value of the press to a community, a race, a country, and in proving the wonderful results from advertising, remarked that "there were no racial eggs, hogs or money," meaning that the man who had the money to spend was not so tuned up to the race he spent it with, or the goods to sell to the color of his purchaser, but where he got the best and the most his patronage would be. During our business career we have been personally addressed by business men, heads of firms, insurance agents, as to their successes by advertising with us, and so we are in a position to assure our fellow Negro business men to launch out and recognize the great achievements in store for them if they will support the press in a whole-hearted manner, which will be to their greater advantage. It is an established fact that business is a study, and if attention is carefully given to the system and method of the other side, it is noticed that there is the advertising agent who has more than an ordinary duty to perform, as his brain must be in constant revolution to have something attractive for the public at all times and seasons. Very good lesson for our Negro business men, as spending a little more brings them the most. In business, as in politics, the press is always serving; serving, in fact, with ceaseless activities, with only a partial return in the end for its usefulness to the public in guiding them to the point of a strong determination for right supported by an independence of spirit. Frequently the press is left out in the formation of organizations intending helpfulness to the public—their caucuses, etc., being arranged with an almost breathless silence and their deliberations behind closed doors, sub voce, then we are brought in to remedy ills, straighten out tangles, and finally bring relief to those in distress. Remember then that the press being always a PUBLIC SERVICE AGENT should be given a thought otherwise than the We hope, therefore, to see in the near future and as early as possible a move in this direction which will enable our merchants to arrest more of the trade which will be theirs when they adopt modern methods, tact and system in business. Whence Came the Cliff Dwellers of Mesa Verde and Where Did They Go? Ey CONGRESSMAN E. T. TAYLOR, Speech in the House. T LEAST a thousand years ago—maybe 2,000 and possibly during the Tut-Ankh-Amen period—there lived in the Mesa Verde region a large population of human beings who flourished and then disappeared. We call them the Cliff Dwellers because we know of no other name or race. Who were these peculiar people? Where did they come from? When did they live there? How long did they live there? When did they leave there? Why did they leave? Where did they go? Echo answers, "Where?" We know they lived in large communities. They must have had some kind of organized government. They were not a warlike people in the sense that most other Indian tribes were. They cultivated corn, beans, cotton and squash. They had domesticated turkeys, but apparently no dogs. Their cultivated lands were upon the mesa, high above most of their reservoirs, and there was no way of irrigating their crops by ditches. They had no sheep or horses or burros or any beasts of burden, so the women and children apparently followed the custom of the present Pueblo Indians and carried jars of water on their heads up over the foot trails for domestic use and also for the irrigation of their scanty crops. We know these strange people were artisans. They wove cloth of cotton and of the yucca plant fibers. They appreciated the beautiful. They made fire by twirling two sticks. They made quite a variety of pottery. They made many wooden utensils. They had no metals or glass. They had no written language. They wove sandals and baskets. Their weapons, hammers, axes, spear points, arrowheads and tools were made of stone. Their implements were mostly made of bone. They quarried and shaped the stones into regular form and laid good masonry that has defied the ravages of time ever since hundreds of years before Columbus was born and before the Spaniards ever touched foot upon this continent. There are many thousands of their ruins and relies of various kinds throughout southwestern Colorado and in New Mexico and Arizona. But the largest and best preserved, the most notable and finest of the prehistoric cliff dwellings in the United States, if not in the world, are in the shelter of caves in the sides of the high-walled canyons of Mesa Verde National park. "Enough of the Italy of the Hotel-Keeper, the Resort of the Idle" By PREMIER MUSSOLINI, in "Political Speeches." Enough of the Italy of the hotelkeeper, resort of the idle with their odious Baedekers in their hands; enough of dusting old plasterwork; we are, and wish to be, a nation of producers. We are a people who will expand without aiming at conquest. We shall gain the respect of the world through our industries and our work. And again: Every man must raise the standard of his activity, both in the office and in the factory. * * * The government, which I have the honor to represent, is the government of speed. * * * We belong to the generation of builders who, by work and discipline, with hands and brains, desire to reach the ultimate and longed for goal, the greatness of the future nation, which will be a nation of producers and not of parasites. The twenty million Italians who work with their hands have the right to defend their interests. What we oppose is the deceitful action of politicians to the detriment of the working classes; we fight these new priests who promise, in bad faith, a paradise they do not believe in themselves. * * * Once there were courtiers who burned incense before the kings and the popes; now there is a new breed, which burns incense hypocritically before the proletariat. * * * We say that the proletariat, before it tries to govern the nation, must learn to govern itself, must make itself worthy technically and, still more, morally, because government is a tremendously difficult and complicated task. The nation is composed of millions upon millions of individuals, whose interests clash, and no superior beings exist who can reconcile all differences and create unity of life and progress. No Nation Has Adopted the Sermon on the Mount as a Rule of Life Bv A. MAUDE ROYDEN, English Woman Preacher. If religion is going out of style, it deserves to. For only those things go out of style which meet no real human need. But in fact—and just because it is an eternal need of the human spirit, religion never can go out of style. All that is happening is that the need for religion, which is simply the need of God, is changing its forms. The change, in this generation, has perhaps been accelerated by the war. There is an uneasy wonder whether a religion that has proclaimed for nearly 2,000 years a God who is the Prince of Peace ought to have been able by now to put a stop to war, at least between nations who profess belief in it. I must admit that if I found nations and individuals persistently living up to the tenets of the Sermon on the Mount and finding that the house of their civilization, far from being founded on a rock and standing, was really founded on sand and fell down, I should myself excused from trying to be a Christian any more. The difficulty, however, has only to be stated to disappear. No nation and very few individuals have persistently adopted the Sermon on the Mount as a rule of life. You City People and Country People Have Largely the Same Problems By ARTHUR C. PAGE, Chicago Editor, by Radio. You people in the city, and you in the country, have largely the same problems, whether you realize it or not, and if either one of you should attempt to put yourself ahead by pushing the other one back, you might succeed for a little while, but not for long. Chicago is built on agriculture and a great deal of agriculture depends on Chicago. Thousands of farmers within the radius of my voice make their living by producing and selling food and other products to people in Chicago, and thousands of people in Chicago make their living from the things they help to produce that are sold to farmers. There ought to be the closest bond of sympathy between this great city and the great agricultural territory which surrounds it, the greatest agricultural territory in the world. It is a most excellent sign of national health when folk in Chicago and you folk out on the farm begin to understand each other, to realize there should be no antagonism between you, but that you are in the same boat—that when one profits you both profit; when one loses, you both eventually lose. --- Double Service Boys' Two Knicker Suits $12.75 $14.75 $18.75 Smart new models for summertime wear, designed to com- bine individuality with long, sturdy wear.

H. Chester Stell of $ 2 4 2 7^{2} $ Ogden, one of the most active and prominent men in Denver, died very suddenly at his home at about 2:30 Thursday morning. The news of his death truly comes as a complete surprise, for just a few hours before the end came he was out among his friends as jovial as ever and taking a leading part in making a dinner party being given by his lovely daughter, Mazelma, whom he idolized, a success. He retired shortly after midnight and was heard to fall from his bed about 2 o'clock. His wife and family rushed to his aid and Dr. Westbrook was called in but he could not be revived. The attending physician reported that every indication pointed to a stroke of apoplexy. Chester Stell was as well known as any man in our city. He was a member of many organizations and was a forceful character in all. He was what we are pleased to call one of our upstanding citizens. He was a member of Rocky Mountain Lodge No. 1, F, and A. M., and of Corporal White camp of Spanish War veterans. He was a vestryman at the Church of the Redeemer, active in the Boy Scout movement, and on the board of management of the Y. M. C. A. He took great pride in seeing two institutions being erected in which he had a part, the new Y. M. C. A. and the new Parish house. He leaves a loving daughter, devoted wife and an aged father and mother in Texas, besides several brothers and sisters. The COLORADO STATESMAN extends sympathy to all. MRS. ANNIE M.

In all ot jurisdiction, both Good Reading for Good Americans July 4,1924 BY JOHN D'CKINSON SHERMAN HE ambitious Fourth of July orator in search of a theme worthy of the day other than the Declaration of Independence need go no farther than the Constitution of the United States of America. But only the able and eloquent and impassioned should attempt to do justice to this most remarkable document in all the world. There were giants in the days when it was written. They ac- HE ambitious Fourth of July orator in search of a theme worthy of the day other than the Declaration of Independence need go no farther than the Constitution of the United States of America. But only the able and eloquent and impassioned should attempt to do justice to this most remarkable document in all the world. There were giants in the days when it was written. They accomplished great works, but none greater than the Constitution. But a dry-as-dust document, you say? Not so. The Constitution is the very substance of our freedom. Between its lines are to be read all the romance and history and aspirations of the Republic. Hundreds of thousands of Americans have fought and died to maintain its principles. The success of representative government in the world depends upon its maintenance in all its integrity. Freedom hangs upon it, for its great purpose is to safeguard the rights of the individual citizen. The Constitution is a human document that bears directly upon the "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness" of every American. Various circumstances have combined of late to bring home this truth to us. In consequence there is a nation-wide campaign to promote understanding of the Constitution by the coming generation. Twenty-eight states have now passed a law requiring definite courses of instruction in all the public schools. More than 100,000 public school teachers are now required by law to teach the Constitution to more than 3,000,000 public school children. The campaign will continue until all the states shall have passed this law. The English settlers in the American colonies brought with them the English principles of self-government and elaborated and practiced them to an extent unknown in the mother country. This is shown by the representative chamber in Virginia in 1619; the "Mayflower Pact" of 1620; the written constitution of the Connecticut towns in 1630. The first official draft of a plan for the formation of a central government was the Articles of Confederation adopted by the Second Continental Congress of 1775. July 1781 it had been ratified by all the states. The government thus established consisted of a legislative department only. To remedy this and other defects congress recommended the Constitutional Convention which met May 29 to September 17, 1787, at Philadelphia. Fifty-five delegates attended, all the states except Rhode Island being represented. Washington presided. Among the leaders in the convention were Hamilton, Morris, Wilson, King, Madison, Franklin, Sherman, Plnckney, Elisworth, Randolph, Mason, Gerry, Lansing, Patterson, Dickinson and Yates. Congress approved the Constitution drawn by them. Eleven of the states ratified the Constitution in 1788. North Carolina ratified in 1789 and Rhode Island in 1790. The original document, like the Declaration of Independence, has been in many hands and many places. At last it has found a permanent and appropriate home, with the Declaration, in a specially designed repository, recently dedicated by President Coolidge, in the Library of Congress. The Constitution of the United States consists of a Preamble and seven Articles, supplemented by nineteen amendments—"Articles in addition to, and amendment of, the Constitution." It begins: PREAMBLE—We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. This Preamble clearly shows that the Constitution is much more than a compact of states like the Articles of Confederation which it replaced. These said that the states "hereby severally enter into a firm league of friendship with each other." The Constitution is plainly the establishment by the people of a federal system of government—the uniting of the states "into one nation under one national government without extinguishing their separate administrations, legislatures and lo- cal patriotisms." The Constitution divides the powers of government into the legislative, executive and judicial departments. It may be thus summarized: ARTICLE I deals with the legislative department or congress. Sect. 1 divides congress into the house and senate. Sect. 2 provides for the election of representatives every second year; for the qualifications of representatives; for their apportionment among the states according to population; the right of the house to choose its own speaker and have the sole power of impeachment. Sec. 3 provides for the election of two senators from each state by the legislatures (by the Seventeenth amendment in effect May 31, 1913, direct vote by the people is substituted) and for their qualifications. The vice president presides and has no vote except in case of tie. The senate tries all cases of impeachment. Sect. 4 leaves times, places, and manner of holding elections for both houses to the state legislatures, but gives congress power to alter such regulations, except as to the places of choosing senators; makes mandatory at least one meeting of congress each year. Sect. 5 gives each house the power to decide on elections, returns, and qualifications of its own members, to determine its rules, to punish members for disorder, and, by a two-thirds vote, to expel a member. Sect. 6 has members of both houses paid by the United States, and privileged from arrest except for treason, felony, or breach of the peace; and forbids any person holding office under the United States to be a member of congress, or any member of congress to be appointed to federal office created or with salary increased during his term in congress. Sect. 7 provides that revenue bills must originate in the lower house; the veto of the President may be overcome only by a vote of two-thirds or more of each house; and if the President fail to return to congress any bill within ten days it shall be law, unless congress adjourn within the ten days, when it shall not be law. Sect. 8 defines the powers granted to congress; to tax, but uniformly throughout the country; to borrow money; to regulate commerce; to make uniform laws on naturalization and on bankruptcy; to coin money, and to fix standards of weights and measures; to establish post offices and post roads; to grant patents and copyrights; to constitute the lower courts; to define and to punish piracies and the like; to declare war; to raise, maintain, and control army and navy; to call out, to organize, and to arm the state militias; to govern a federal district, the seat of government; and—the "elastic clause," on the interpretation of which there has been constant disagreement—to make laws necessary and proper for execution of these powers, and of all other powers vested in the government, or in any of its departments or officers. Sect. 9 enumerates the powers denied to the United States government: the prohibition of the slave trade before 1808; suspension of the writ of habeas corpus, except for public safety in rebellion or invasion; the passage of any bill of attainder, or ex post facto law; the levying of a direct tax not based on population, or of any export tax; commercial preference for one port over another, or levying duties on vessels sailing from one state to another; the draft of money except by legal appropriation; and the granting of any title of nobility, or permitting the receipt, without consent of congress, of any present or title from a foreign state by persons holding office under the government. Sect. 10 enumerates the powers denied to the states. Some of these, in the nature of a bill of rights—e.g. that there be no bill of attainder or ex post facto law—are repeated from the list of powers denied to the federal government; others deny to the states what has been granted in the preceding selections to the federal government. ARTICLE II deals with the executive power, vested in a President, who, with a vice president, is elected for four years by electors chosen by the states, the number of electors for each being equal to the total number of senators and representatives from the states. (The Twelfth amendment 1803-4) to the Constitution makes the choice of President and vice president separate; provides that no elector vote for candidates for both offices from the same state; and stipulates that if there is no choice by a majority of the electors, the house of representatives, voting by states, shall choose by majority a President from the three highest candidates for the office, and the senate choose by majority a vice president from the two highest candidates.) Sects. 2 and 3 detail the powers of the Presi- dent. He is commander in chief of the federal army and navy, and of state militia in the service of the United States; he grants reprieves or pardons, except in impeachment cases; with the advice and consent of two-thirds of the senate he makes treaties and appoints ambassadors and other public ministers, consuls, judges of the Supreme court, and other officers not otherwise provided for by the Constitution, or, in the case of minor officials, by act of congress; he has the veto power already described; "he gives congress information of the state of the Union"—a method of initiating legislation by the "Presidential message"; he may convene congress for extraordinary sessions; he receives foreign ministers; and he takes care that the laws be faithfully executed, besides commissioning all federal officers. Sect. 4 provides that the President, vice president, and all civil officers (not including members of congress, as the Constitution has been interpreted) may be removed by "impeachment for and conviction of treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors." ARTICLE III is devoted to the judicial department, which, it provides, shall be vested in one Supreme court and in inferior courts ordained and established by congress. Federal judges, appointed by the President with the approval of the senate, hold office during good behavior. Sect. 2 states that in all cases affecting public ministers, and those in which a state shall be party, the Supreme court shall have original jurisdiction. In all other cases it shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions as congress shall make. Sect. 3 provides that "treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war, or in adhering to its enemies, giving them aid and comfort"; that "no person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses. . . or on confession in open court"; and that congress shall have power to declare punishment of treason; but no attainer of treason shall extend beyond the life of the person attained. ARTICLE IV deals with interstate and territorial relations. Among its provisions are: those for the guarantee by the United States of a republican form of government to every state, thus giving congress some check on the constitutions of would-be states; for repelling invasion of the states by federal power, and for their protection against domestic violence upon application by the state legislature, or, if it be not in session, of the state executive. ARTICLE V provides for the adoption of amendments to the Constitution. Amendments are to be proposed either by a two-thirds vote of both houses of congress, or by a convention called on the application of the legislatures of two-thirds of the states. Proposed amendments must then be ratified by the legislatures of three-fourths of the states, or by conventions in three-fourths. ARTICLE VI provides that the Constitution, and the laws and treaties made thereunder, shall be the supreme law of the land. ARTICLE VII provided that "the ratification of the conventions of nine states shall be sufficient for the establishment of this Constitution." AMENDMENTS ARTICLE I declares that congress shall make no law respecting the establishment or the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech or the press, or the right of petition. ARTICLE II holds that, "a well-regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed." ARTICLE IV affirms the right of the people to be secure in their person and property against unreasonable seizure and search, and that no warrants shall issue but upon probable cause and under oath. ARTICLE V decrees that no person shall be held to answer for a serious crime except on indictment of a grand jury, nor be twice put in jeopardy of life for the same offence, nor compelled to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or happiness without due process of law, and that private property shall not be taken for public use without just compensation. ARTICLE VI provides that in criminal prosecutions the accused shall have a speedy public trial in the district where the alleged crime was committed, shall be informed of the nature of the accusation, and shall have the assistance of counsel and of witnesses in his favor. ARTICLE VIII says: "Excessive ball shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishment inflicted." ARTICLE X reads: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people." From 1803 to the Civil war no amendments were added. Three were then adopted as part of the federal government's reconstruction policy. Article XIII prohibits slavery. Article XIV denies to the states the power to abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens or to deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law. Article XV denies to the states the power to abridge "on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude" the right of citizens to vote. In 1913 the Sixteenth and Seventeenth amendments were adopted. They provide for the levying of an income tax and the direct election of senators. The Eighteenth amendment, providing for national prohibition, became effective by ratification Jan. 16, 1919. The Nineteenth amendment, providing for woman suffrage, became effective by ratification August 26, 1920. Many movements looking to the further amendment of the Constitution are under way. For example, one provides for the prohibition of child labor; it has just been passed by congress and must now be ratified by the states. A second, fostered by the National Woman's party, would put women on an equal footing with men before the law. A third would allow congress to override an opinion of unconstitutionality by the Supreme court by repassing the act in question. HERE ASSEMBLED ON THE NIGHT OF JUNE 162, 1775 1200 CONTINENTAL TROOPS UNDER COMMAND OF GENERAL PRESCOTT. AFTER PRAYER BY PRESIDENT LANCOON THEY MARCHED TO BUNKER HILL. Here, at Cambridge, Mass., Colonial Patriot Soldiers Gathered for the Famous March to Bunker Hill and Freedom. PATRIOTIC SHRINE AT VALLEY FORGE Is a Memorial to Heroes of the Revolution. Worthily Commemorates Services of Those Who Fought for Freedom. There are many interesting features of the memorial chapel at Valley Forge. To the right of the Washington memorial door stands the Washington-Sullivan font, each face of the octagonal bowl bearing the crusader's cross, symbolizing the Christian's warfare against the world, the flesh and the devil. On the wall back of the font appears this quint inscription: "George Washington was made a Member of Christ, the Child of God, and an Inheritor of the Kingdom of Heaven, in the Sacrament of Holy Baptism Ministered according to the Use of the Church of England, whereof this Font is a Memorial, and this the Record: George Washington, Son of Augustine & Mary, his Wife, was Born ye 11th Day of February, 1732, about 10 in the Morning & was Baptized on the 3d of April following, Mr. Beverly Whiting & Cap't Christopher Brooks Godfathers and Mrs. Mildred Gregory Godmother." The pews of the Patriots, unique in America for their conception and design, are twenty-five in number, and each a worthy memorial. On the base of each is carved either the family arms, the insignia of a patriotic society or the Colonial seal or state arms. The President's pew bears the arms of the United States and the seal of the President. It is given in memory of Washington and Monroe, who were at Valley Forge and later became Presidents, and commemorates the address of Roosevelt, the first President to visit this sacred ground. Commemorative Pews. In front of the pews of the Patriots are elaborately carved screens; that in front of the President's pew was given in honor of Washington and his major generals at Valley Forge; that in front of the Shippen pew was given in honor of Washington and his brigadier generals at Valley Forge. As Washington spoke so frequently of the Providence of God as directing the destiny of the American patriots, this is symbolized by angels at prayer carved in oak and kneeling on the buttresses; below in the panels are thirteen flags of the Revolution carved and colored. The Door of the Allies, opening into the Porch of the Allies on the right, is in honor of the foreign soldiers who alded the American patriots in their struggle for independence. The Inauguration Door, opening into the Cloister of the Colonies on the left, is in memory of Washington's inauguration as first President of the United States. At the entrance to the choir is the Washington-Wood pulpit, lectern and perclose, carved with grace and dignity in Indiana limestone. On the steps is the inscription: "In Commemoration of George Washington, Warden of Truro Parish, Virginia, and Lay Render in the French and Indian War." The lectern is the only monument at Valley Forge to a British soldier. It commemorates Washington's service as General Braddock's aide de camp in his ill-fated expedition against the French, and especially his last tribute to his dead chief, as recorded in these words: "George Washington read the Prayer Book Office for the Burial of the Dead at the Interment of Major General Edward Braddock, July 14, 1755." The Washington arms are carved on the center of the desk; on the left is an eagle holding the Bible, symbolic of the Church, while on the right is another holding a shield bearing the arms of the United States symbolic of the State. In a richly carved, canopled niche in the lectern stands the Washington-Burk memorial statuette, given in memory of the late Abbie J. Reeves Burk, wife of the Rev. Dr. W. Herbert Burk. The memorial is of bronze, the work of the famous American sculptor, Franklin Simmons, and is pronounced the finest figure of Washington since Houdon's wonderful work preserved in the capitol at Richmond. Altar Weighs Ten Tons. The altar is one block of Indiana limestone weighing ten tons. In the face is set the plate from Washington's overbox, which fell to the floor of the vault and was overlooked when the sarcophagus was sealed. It bears the inscription: "George Washington, Born February 22, 1732. Died December 11, 1799." Cut in the steps leading to the altar is Tennyson's tribute to Washington: "His work is done: But while the roar of mankind endure, Let his great example stand, Colossal seen of every land, And keep the soldier firm, the statesman pure, Till in all lands, and thro' all human story, Of duty be the way of glory." The path of duty be the way of glory. The Roof of the Republic, supported by carved oak angels with outstretched wings symbolical of the Providence of God, contains forty-eight panels, one for each state in the Union. In the floor under each bay of the roof is a bronze tablet with the arms of the state represented above, the names of the states and names of the donors. The Cloister of the Colonies, a unique monument of patriotism, forms a porte cochere to the chapel and one of the entrances to the Washington Memorial cemetery. The open air pulpit at the end of the cloister overlooks rows of stately oaks, which form a beautiful woodland cathedral where thousands of worshipers already have joined in patriotic services in memory of "The Father of Hs Country." Colonies Represented. Colonies Represented. Each of the thirteenth original colonies is represented in the cloister by a bay, that of New Hampshire forming the entrance to the chapel and the choir. The cellings are of oak and, on the central boss of each are emblazoned the state arms. Over the arch of the Virginia bay are the arms of the Virginia company, consisting of the arms of England, Scotland, Ireland and France and the motto: "En dat Virginia quintam." This bay, erected in 1907, marks the three hundredth anniversary of the founding of Jamestown and the establishment of English life and institutions in America. Above the inner arch are the arms of Washington, the great Virginian. The New York bay contains the open air pulpit. The Thanksgiving tower, yet to be completed, will be the most prominent feature of the memorial. Its entrance will be at the end of the Porch of the Allies, furthest from the chapel, and will form the approach to the large assembly hall and museum on the second floor of Patriots' hall. Each step of the stairway to the second floor will be a memorial to an American patriot; the memorial tablets will be set on the risers of these "Steps of Fame." There will be thirteen bells in the chime, each representing one of the original colonies. Reality Beats Theory The froth of the Fourth is passing. Oratory has enjoyed its place in our celebrations, but it has been only a pleasant incident to the whole. In theory there is no more reason for flights of rounded period on the Fourth than any other day; in reality there is something in the Fourth which sustains patriotic rhapsody with special strength. THE SHELTER Small but Satisfactory Community Drier. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) Community driers or evaporators have proved of great value in taking extra work out of the house during the busy season. A small but satisfactory co-operative drier may be built by the following directions, which are recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture: opposite end of the h with an elevation of the furnace. This sto tend outside of the ho space to escape the e bow and three or four as a chimney, or if a ferred, it may be built or $5 additional. The thermos or fireless cooker principle is used in this drier; that is, a space of three or four inches is allowed between the walls of the house, to be filled with sawdust. This holds the heat and relieves the necessity of a constant watch over the fire. The furnace should be placed at the opposite end from the door and a stovepipe run from furnace end to the door end and back with sufficient elevation to cause good draft. A drier of this size and type should, with good management, dry from four to six bushels a day, and should pay for itself in one season. Wet weather has no effect on this type of drier. Building Plan of House. The house is 6 by 12 feet. The uprights in front are 6 feet 8 inches. The uprights in back are 6 feet 2 inches to give roof 6 inches fall for watershed. Doors are fastened to 2 by 4-inch uprights in front. Doors are 2 feet 8 inches by 6 feet 8 inches. The furnace is 15 by 15 inches by 4 feet, covered with two sheets (24-gauge) black sheet iron 2 inches apart—air space to prevent fire. The radiation is secured by ordinary stovepipe attached to furnace. The house is heated after the plan of a tobacco barn—a small furnace of rock or brick is built at one end, a stovepipe carries the radiation to the They Are Excellent as Cooked Vegetable. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Cucumbers are excellent as a cooked vegetable, suggests the United States Department of Agriculture, though many people do not know or use them in this form. To prepare them for cooking, peel them, cut lengthwise or crosswise, or both, and scoop out the seeds. They are tender and delicious if steamed in a colander or steamer and served with a white sauce like sliced carrots or turnips, kohl-rabi, Jerusalem artichokes, or asparagus. Baked halves of cucumbers stuffed A woman in a white apron is preparing a dish on a table. Rolled in Flour and Fried Like Eggplant. with fine bread crumbs from the center of the loaf which have been seasoned with the salt, pepper and onion juice, or a little chopped onion, are appreciated as much as stuffed eggplant, peppers or tomatoes. The cucumbers may be mashed after steaming or stewing in a very little water, seasoned with butter, salt and pepper, and served in the same way as yellow or white or hubbard squash. Lengthwise halves of peeled cucumber may be rolled in flour and fried like eggplant. Sliced cucumbers may be sautéed in butter in which a tablespoonful of chopped onion has been cooked till golden brown. In Switzerland, France and Hungary cucumbers are prepared and served in all these ways, which are worth trying by American housewives. opposite end of the house and back, with an elevation of two feet above the furnace. This stovepipe may extend outside of the house a sufficient space to escape the eaves and an elbow and three or four joints may act as a chimney, or if a chimney is preferred, it may be built at a cost of $4 or $5 additional. Plan of Trays. There are three lattice partitions in the house, making four sections 32 inches wide for drying trays; 12 inches above the sill place across a piece 2 by 4 inches on which the center uprights, 2 by 4 inches, and the back upright, 2 by 4 inches, rest. (Put upright pieces the 2-inch way.) The tray bearers, 1 by 3-inch strips, are fastened to the uprights. The space between the tray bearers is filled with 2-inch strips to act as guides for the trays and to force the draft to circulate between the trays. If these spaces are left open they will act as a flue and carry off the heat. The sides of the trays are of $ \frac{4}{3} $ by 3-inch lumber, making the trays 3 inches deep. The bottom of the tray is made of lattice strips $ \frac{3}{4} $ by $ 1 \frac{1}{4} $ inches, with 1-inch space between the trays running lengthwise. The trays have a center partition to support the bottom laths and cheesecloth is used to cover the laths. There are 8 inches from the top of one tray to the top of the next. The trays move on the bearers like a bureau drawer. A small opening must be left at top of house just above doors—an outlet for steam. A 3-inch opening at front foundation must be planned to let in cool air to keep the fruit from sweating. BACON IN SANDWICH WILL HELP FLAVOR Especially Appetizing When Served at a Picnic. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) What to put in the sandwiches for school or office is a constantly recurring problem. Almost everybody likes bacon—it is usually on hand and it may be prepared in a very few minutes. Why not use it occasionally in sandwiches? suggests the United States Department of Agriculture. When time is short, plain bacon sandwiches, consisting of bread and two or three slices of crisp-cooked bacon, can be put together in a very few minutes. Bacon sandwiches out-of-doors can be made wherever one's picnic party happens to be. The bacon can be toasted over a fire in the woods, each person cooking his own pieces with the aid of a forked stick; and either because of the jollity of the occasion, or the good flavor of the bacon, or the special taste given by the wood fire, the sandwiches will seem to be the best one has ever eaten. Sliced onion or pickle in a bacon sandwich gives an acceptable flavor. Various kinds of "club" sandwiches are made, all of them including bacon as one of the chief ingredients. A chicken club sandwich is commonly made with three pieces of toasted bread as a basis, and between these two fillings consisting of lettuce, bacon, tomato and sliced chicken, with salad dressing. Veal or other cold meat makes a palatable filling in a club sandwich. These sandwiches are bulky and are intended to be served on a plate and eaten with a knife and fork. They constitute the main dish for a luncheon or supper, but as they are ordinarily made with toast they are not so suitable for packing in a lunch box to be eaten several hours later. Bacon and cottage cheese combine well in sandwiches, either of plain bread or toast. Eggs and bacon can be made as acceptable in sandwiches as when served together for breakfast. The egg may be scrambled and mixed during cooking with the bacon cut up in small pieces, or it may be hardboiled, minced and mixed with the bacon when being put into the sandwiches. Liver and bacon sandwiches are made by chopping the liver to a paste, seasoning it with salt, pepper and small pieces of bacon, and using the mixture as a sandwich filling. Bacon may be added to give zest to any cold meat used in sandwiches. If the sandwich can be served while the bacon is hot, the result is particularly good. A little salad dressing is needed on the meat. Lettuce, watercress, celery or tomato may be added, making a result similar to a club sandwich, except that bread is used instead of toast. The KITCHEN CABINET A home based on right principles will be simple. No ostentation or living beyond one's means; simplicity in entertainment, in offering freely of what one has to friends, without apology or explanation. No child will ever forget the delight of grandmother's cooky jar, and even the older ones enjoy a crisp, tasty cooky with a cup of tea. In most families the cherished recipes are handed down from mother to daughter. Here are a few that are good and worth saving: White Cookies.—Take two cupfuls of sugar, one cupful of shortening, add two well-beaten eggs and a cupful of milk; a great lemon rind or a nutmeg for flavoring may be used. Sift four teaspoonfuls of baking powder with two cupfuls of flour, add alternately with the milk and when well blended set on ice for an hour or two to become stiff. Roll out, adding as little flour as possible; sprinkle with sugar as the cookies go into the oven. Hermits.—To one cupful of thick, sour cream add two cupfuls of brown sugar, one cupful of chopped raisins, two-thirds of a cupful of butter, two well-beaten eggs, one teaspoonful each of soda, clinnamon, cloves and nutmeg, and stir with flour to make a stiff dough. Drop by teaspoonfuls on a baking sheet, add a nut or raisin on top of each and bake in a moderate oven. Soft Molasses Cookies.—Take one-half cupful of shortening, two cupfuls of molasses, and put over the heat. When the boiling point is reached add one teaspoonful each of clinnamon and ginger, stir well and remove from the heat. Add one beaten egg, one cupful of sour milk and one teaspoonful of soda. Beat well and add about four cupfuls of flour and drop from a spoon on a baking sheet. One may add different spices, nuts and fruit to the above recipe, making a different tasting cooky. Aunt O's Cookies.—Take one cupful each of butter and sugar, two eggs well beaten, one-half cupful of milk, nutmeg to taste and three teaspoonfuls of baking powder added to flour to roll. Roll, cut and sprinkle with sugar. Bake in a hot oven. Man wants but little here below, Nor wants that little long; 'Tis not with me exactly so, But 'tis so in the song. My wants are many and, if told, Would muster many a score; And were each wish a mint of gold, I still should long for more. EAT MORE LAMB AND MUTTON Those who object to the flavor of mutton will find if the skin is carefully removed the woolly flavor will go with it. Great care must be taken in dressing mutton, never to let the oily wool touch the flesh of the meat after its removal. The wool is so filled with oil that it imparts the disagreeable odor to the meat if it touches it. Mutton en Casserole.—Cut a pound (more or less) of mutton cut from the shoulder into serving-sized pieces. Brown in a little fat, add salt and pepper and dredge with flour. Cover with boiling water and one cupful each of fresh carrots cut into cubes and one of peas, with one small onion. Cover and place in a hot oven to cook for three hours. Serve from the casserele. Roast Leg of Lamb.—Rub the leg of lamb well with salt, pepper and a sweet fat. Place in the roasting pan and sear it well in a hot oven. Now add one-half cupful of water, one cupful of tomato, one onion, six peeled potatoes and roast with the lamb. Baste occasionally and serve with the gravy in the pan. Mutton Stew.—Take a neck piece and put on to cook in boiling water to cover with one small onion. Simmer until tender, then add a can of peas, thicken the gravy and serve the peas and gravy around the meat. Season well while the meat is cooking. Barbecued Lamb.—Take cold roast of lamb, cut into slices and reheat in the following sauce: Take two tablespoonfuls of butter, one-half tablespoonful of vinegar, one-third of a cupful of currant jelly and one-fourth teaspoonful of mustard. Cook until the lamb is well-heated and seasoned. Chicken Pie.—Cook the chicken as usual, stewing with an onion or clove of garlic. Lay the chicken well-seasoned in the baking dish, removing the onion. Cover with broth and place baking powder biscuit closely over the top. Just before serving add a cupful of good rich cream to the broth in the dish. Combination Soup.—Put one cupful of lentils, one-half cupful of barley, one onion, two cloves, one grated carrot into a saucepan; simmer for two hours, add salt and pepper to taste. The onion should be stuck with the cloves and removed, then add a pint of milk and four tablespoonfuls of butter. Serve at once. Nellie Maxwell (© 1924. Western Newspaper Union.) the older ones enjoy a crisp, tasty cooky with a cup of tea. In most families the cherished recipes are handed down from mother to daughter. Here are a few that are good and worth saving: White Cookies.—Take two cupfuls of sugar, one cupful of shortening, mix and cream well, then removed the woolly flavor will go with it. Great care must be taken in dressing mutton, never to let the olly wool touch the flesh of the meat after its removal. The wool is so filled with oil that it imparts the disagreeable odor to the ment if it touches it. Mutton en Casserole.— The KITCHEN CABINET A good substantial one-dish dinner will always be found in a Cornish Pasty. —Take good round steak with plenty of suet, cut it into cubes and place in a deep pie plate lined with a rich biscuit dough: Pizza over this put a layer of sliced potatoes with a few slices of parboiled turnip, sprinkle with sliced onions, season well and cover with the biscuit dough leaving openings for the steam to escape. Bake for two hours in a moderate oven. When the vegetables are well done remove the pasty and wrap in a cloth to steam for ten minutes. This softens the crust and sends the flavor of the food well through it. Cut and serve in wedge-shaped pieces. The amount of meat and vegetables will depend upon the size of the family. Two pasties will need to be prepared for a family of six or eight. To serve with this dinner a crisp lettuce salad with a simple dressing will be appropriate. Buttered Potatoes.—Peel one dozen small potatoes and put them to cook in a casserole with one-half dozen medium-sized onions, all whole; add four tablespoonfuls of butter, three teaspoonfuls of salt and pepper to taste. Cover and bake in the oven three-quarters of an hour. If the onions are not licked, do not add them. Season with parsley minced very fine. Lamb Patties.—Grind cold roast or stew, season, form into patties, wrap each with a strip of bacon, fastening with a toothpick. Fry until well-browned in a hot frying pan and serve with pan gravy. Cabbage and Pineapple Salad.—Chop a tender cabbage until fine, add one cupful of diced celery and three slices of pineapple finely chopped. Mix with a good boiled dressing well-seasoned, or with mayonnaise dressing. Serve on lettuce garnished with pimentoes cut into strips. Apple and Nut Sandwich.—Chop a small cord and peeled apple and mix with it a tablespoonful of finely broken nut meats. Spread whole wheat bread with butter and put on the apple and nut filling. The pleasantest things in the world are pleasant thoughts, and the great art in life is to have as many of them as possible.—Bovee. GOOD THINGS FOR THE TABLE For those who like a substitute for meat in warm weather the nut loaf will be a suggestion: ```markdown ``` Nut Loaf. Cook one cupful of rice in boiling salted water until tender; drain and add two cupfuls of bread crumbs, one tablespoonful of chopped parsley, two tablespoonfuls of salt, one and one-half cupfuls of pecans and a dash of cayenne. Add a beaten egg, one tablespoonful of butter and one cupful of milk; add the bread crumbs, toasted, and enough of the milk to make a loaf to keep its shape. Mix all well and place in a baking pan with a little water. Bake twenty minutes. Serve hot with tomato sauce. Rhubarb and Strawberry Conserve.—Cut into inch-pieces three pounds of fresh, tender rhubarb; cook in water to cover until soft. Add one and one-half cupfuls of sugar and one quart of berries; cook until well heated through. Add the juice of a lemon and simmer until thick. Seal in small cans or glasses. Celery and Hamburger.—Take two cupfuls of bread crumbs, one cupful of diced celery, one-half cupful of walnut meats, one teaspoonful of poultry dressing, one teaspoonful of salt, cayenne to taste, one teaspoonful of grated onion, one teaspoonful of baking powder and two tablespoonfuls of butter. Soak the crumbs and squeeze dry; add the other ingredients. Put hamburger steak and this stuffing in layers in a baking pan, cover with the stuffing. Bake forty minutes. Fig Ice Cream.—Soak two pounds of figs overnight in orange juice; put through the meat grinder in the morning and return to the juice; steam and cook until soft. To one pint of cream add one quart of milk, one and one half cupfuls of sugar; boll; add a tablespoonful of lemon juice; cool; add the figs and some lemon rind and freeze as usual. Beef Broth.—Cut two pounds of lean beef into small dice, break the bones and put them with the meat into a saucepan, cover with two quarts of water and when boiling add one carrot, one turnip, one onion, all diced, and a bunch of herbs. Simmer for three hours, add two tablespoonfuls of cooked rice and serve hot with croutons.

PRETTY DRESS FOR SMALL GIRL; BONNET BRIMS FRAME THE FACE TO SUCCESSFULLY design clothes for the little folks, one must possess natural genius in that direction. Just as there are artists who excel in painting children's portraits, there are stylists who have the gift of expressing the spirit of youth in the apparel they create. Surely it is the inspiration of an artist, gifted in catering to children's fancy, to conceive of a cunning basket-pocket. Its handle suspended from the X THE FILM MAKES A FUN FILM. A girdle of a little girl's frock, just as you see in the picture. This quaint wee basket is conjured of gold braid and tiny flowers of gay-colored silk. The pocket is such a fascinating subject one almost forgets to say that the dress itself is of tangerine crepe de chine. It has fine shirrings in the skirt about the waistline just below the girdle of self material. Among the "ideas" exploited in children's frocks this season is the ingenious use of ribbon as trimming for the front of a straightline dress. The ribbon starts at the neck in front, and is run in and out of slashes which appear as huge bottomholes traversing the gown from top to bottom. Sometimes the ribbon terminates in loops and ends, or it may finish in a single streamer with fringe, hand-knotted, in cloche offers the sum these oh-so-becoming ways of the same kind. What if the crown braid sewed row and very likely to be of fabric, as the bonnet picture shows. "This net" in its alluring tinted chiffon, the new petal pink, a co are hearing much the horn crown, or one o transparent hair, brim and roses of s be equally as effective. The piquant charm net is at once apparent pliety is its master ness. The fan of ranged, as you see, A THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIES THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY bright-colored floss. Again, if the ribbon used is three inches wide or more the flowing end drawn through the last slash may be decorated with a bouquet of little flowers done in gay wool embroidery. A lovely jene fille party dress which sets forth an unusual color scheme, is composed mainly of flounces, each of these ruffles being a different pastel shade. The entire resolves itself into an exquisite rainbow effect. Specialists in children's frocks use very narrow black lace insertion on delicate volles and tinted organdles or chiffons with most charming results. Also it is the fashion to stitch row and row of tiny black ribbon on sheer materials. These ribbon rows look especially interesting on gay flowered fabrics of the most popular trimming ideas the season. The coloring also bespoke the mode, as it carries out the toned tangerine in its exquisitely fine mure crown with the plaited brim fashion of ribbon in a deep nasturtium shade. Some of the prettiest summer nets have leghorn crowns or tra parent lace brims. The dainty crowns are usually accompanied with lace dyed the exact shade. Col brown is an outstanding color for it and it is especially attractive when used in conjunction with flowers in same shade. Bonnet and scarf sets made of ha colored chiffon or georgette, or print in flowers, which look as if handpainted, are a picturesque item which primes a widespread vogue. JULIA BOTTOMLEY The vogue for bright red is an out- --- standing note in the realm of children's fashions. Petal pink, is another shade which is very popular. As if to challenge the wide-brimmed hat of which Paris tells us there will be many this season, the little cloche elects to take on picturesque ways, of its own which shall defy competition from any source. Bonnet brims that frame the face with bewitching grace are among the tempations the hitherto modest little 22 cloche offers the summer girl. Nor are these oh-so-becoming bonnet brims always of the same kind as their crowns. What if the crown be of fine Tuscan braid sewed row and row, the brim is very likely to be of exquisite sheer fabric, as the bonnet at the top of this picture shows. "Tis "a dream of a bonnet" in its alluring drape of rainbow tinted chiffon, the roses being in the new petal pink, a color of which we are hearing much this season. A leg horn crown, or one of the latest tinted transparent hair, with corn-colored brim and roses of sunset glow, would be equally as effective. The plquant charm of the other bonnet is at once apparent. Its ultra simpleity is its master stroke of effectiveness. The fan of fine plaiting aranged, as you see at the back is one THE FILM OF "THE LADY OF THE RING" BY JOHN M. HARRIS, WITH A FILM BY JOHN M. HARRIS, AND A FILM BY JOHN M. HARRIS. of the most popular trimming ideas on the season. The coloring also bespeaks the mode, as it carries out the tones of tangerine in its exquisitely fine milan crown with the plaited brim fashioned of ribbon in a deep nasturtium shade. Some of the prettiest summer bonnets have leghorn crowns or transparent lace brims. The dalty hair crowns are usually accompanied with lace dyed the exact shade. Cocoa brown is an outstanding color for lace and it is especially attractive when used in conjunction with flowers the same shade.
