Earlier, in the Court, he had been sentenced to be hanged on February 20. He was convicted last week.

THE NEGRO WELFAR
THE DAILAS----I
By N. W. Harliee
When Mr. Lawther was elected mayor of this city he said that it was his purpose to be mayor of all cities, and he voted against him, and to show that he expected to live up to this declaration of official statement, among other things, to establish a Welfare Board composed of Colored men of standing and ability. In order that he might make a difference in the kind of men he desired to serve on this important board, he requested a leading race man to send him a letter of recommendation. He selected eleven persons who should be the members of the Welfare Board. The following persons should be the high duty of their office: Prof. J. P. Starks, S. W. Lowy, J. C. Jordan, D. A. L. Runyon, J. C. Henson, Rev. A. S. Jackson, Albert Hutcherson, Dr. R. T. Hamilton, M. M. Rodgers, Hon. A. S. Wella, the interests of the Colored people, and recommend to the mayor from time to time the needs of the community, present such as sanitary conditions, improvements, and sewerage connections. What an important trust and responsibility, guardians of cleanliness.
When it is taken in consideration that an unsanitary condition prevailing in one part of the city, en dangers every other part, a small sore on the little finger, may develop blood poison and endanger the whole body, or the injury of the left eye, may through sympathy cause the right eye to be lost. Small pox in the cabin may enter the Palace; the peasant suffering from the effect of yellow fever may endanger the king on his throne. Every part of the city regardless to who lives in that section, should be cared for and made sanitary and comfortable, lifted up out of the mud, beautified for the good of all, for all are heirs of a common lot, the contagious diseases. Besides this, every one would be proud of his city, proud of her name, would take a deeper and abiding interest in her welfare. Where did the idea originate to make one section of the city sanitary and permit the other to be unsanitary? Where is the wisdom in it? Why is per-
In our large cities such as New York and Philadelphia, Houston and Philadelphia, Houston and all nationalities on the police force, especially in the cities of New York and Boston, and upon Ireland, were told the Irish were put on because the Irish police knew the characteristics of the Irish; that the French were put on, because they knew the traits of the French; that the Germen were put on for a similar reason; and that the Negro police were selected in these.

Shortly afternoon a crowd went to the jail and demanded that Williams be turned over to them. The jail was closed, and the door of the jail was broken with a sledgehammer and preparations were made to batter down the cell door, but the jail was closed. The possession of the cell keys by overpowering a guard. The Negro was brought out and led to the public house, where the concrete "safety first" post on the square. Hay, wood and coal were piled about him and over the concrete floor. Hay was cooled in coal oil. Then a match was applied. Williams lived but a few minutes in the flames, probably not more than a minute, and no outcry at his fate further than to say "Help me, Cap," three times, and to have denied outlining his victim.
While a great many borges gathered around the burning Negro, business was not suspended and there was very little excitement.
cities such as Galveston and Houston, because they knew the hiding places of the criminal element of their people, and more than that to be fair in protecting the community, because they gave all representation in the city. Our city has a commission, form of government. The government by commission viewed from every angle, has been for the most part a success, and more than that to more cities to adopt the commission form of government. This form of government is more sensitive, and more satisfactory than that of the unwieldy body of debaters. Now talk for more affectation, and we will be idle, when we consider its accomplishments, and the Herculean honor in the first place to be named a member of this board, and a greater honor to bring about any degree of recognition. What time that would be so effective of results, and yet that was what this welfare board has done to their community, to bring about the distinguished honor to represent. What are some of its accomplishments in the Hon. Mayor? Let us enumerate them. This Welfare Board asked for a tubercular hospital for our tubercular patients, treated and after the race for recovery and this prayer has been an inspiration. For this one consideration granted car board, we should appreciate its influence for the afflicted and unfunny.
In the establishment of this tuberculous hospital, Dallas has made a long stride in the right direction. The marvel is why such a hospital was not established years ago for our people, not only ours, but for all persons suffering with this disease. It takes time, and experience to convince the public that such institutions are needed. Many patients will be benefited if not cured. Then what is better the spread of this disease will be curbed to some extent by confining it to a certain location. The Board has secured $10,000 for sewerage connections on Trinidad.
Our Welfare Board recommended the appointment of a district nurse to look after the sick of our people, one well experienced and skilled in her profession, and this has been done. Miss Marlette Gordan, accomplished nurse received the appointment and how well she has performed her duties as a nurse may be vouched for by the patients she has nursed back to health and happiness. She is a nurse with a reputation of being careful and tender in applying the remedies and prescriptions. Miss Gordon is on the

city's pay roll for nursing Colored patients. A thing new in our city; it is Mrs. S. A. McCall, another Indy, recommended by our Welfare Board. She works under the direction of the city's staff, filling a position long since needed among our people in this city. She has been engaged in the hospital at the Prairie View State Normal. Already the effect of her good work is felt among the city's people of the city among our people. She is from house to house of the welfare board to give comfort to give comfort to the efforts of the United Charities, thus bearing the balm and gled to the city. When we consider our children, when we look out for their welfare, Mrs. Hilaria Morgan, the Welfare Board, doing the best thing possible for Mrs. Morgan's duty is to study the work of the welfare board and say about this new thing and unhard of ting among our people in this city, the study of the welfare board, and the study of the welfare of the stock at our state fair, but who has heard before Mrs. S. A. McCall, another Indy, are taking through the representation of our welfare board.
It has become a custom of late years to work through boards as much move can be accomplished in the new governed through boards, banks, trusts, trusts and the like. We ought to be more interested in civic affairs.
In a decade of years, a different story will be told with regards to the work of the Welfare Board, to investigate their condition, there lils, their short comings, and their defects. Much has been said about the perfection of its bodily growth, its progress, and this one word is said about the Colored child's physical condition, its perfection, its bodily growth, its progress, and this one thing we are to give the welfare board the banner.
The success of the King Solomon's decree on the welfare child with the rod, that is, measure to find out its mental and physical condition, which is the old fashion methods, which is plied only to the body, when it was meant for both of the Welfare Board to be appreciated but to be seen and investigated. The wisdom of its establishment can not be successfully achieved by the Welfare Board, that it has recommended should be no surprise at all, but the surprise should be that they have done as done in the past, and think how slowly public opinion crystallizes when it is to do things that it does not hope that other gates will open other doors of opportunities, other square deals for all, that in the language of Roevellt, "All Men and no Man," the Negro Welfare Board of Dallas to be congratulated for its effectiveness. We also appreciate the consideration of the Hon. Mr. Lawrenter, our mayor, that he continued success, Hifing, his mud, and making it sanitary in every respect, remembering that the bad one may effect the health of many.

With the American Army in France, Bea Mans, Dec. 20—One of the units of the American army to arrive here en route for embarkation to America that has made good, without having the glamour and spectacular settings of the American army, the 92nd Army Division, the only Colored signal unit in the American Army. While this battalion engages in line trenches; make raids for prisoners, or march, in battle formation, into big engagements, it must not be ignored. The 92nd Army Division is serious and a very dangerous duty to perform. The boys of this battalion had to string the wires for telegraphic and telephonic connections at the front lines when they were trained upon them; so in many respects, their duty took them into situations fully as dangerous as combat situations when the army was engaged at all, with few exceptions, college or high school boys, not a few of them exposed in radio and electric engineering when the battalion was composed in the work when the battalion was formed, are now most proficient men. Major Spencer, now Lieutenant-Colonel, who was responsible for the formation of the unit, was the belief that Colored boys could make good, and he has remained with it long enough to experience his belief becoming more confident.

From this point it proceeded, and the boys got their first taste of what was to be later, the r daily radio company, the radio company which acquired its own type of French instruments, a battery plant was established, and a full supply of batteries for the companies P and C.

The first test of real courage given the men, and their first introduction into real fighting, in addition to stringing the men, was to radio messages, came on the afternoon of September 27. When a party of lion men, including the Colored, advanced beyond the battalion Colored, advanced beyond the battalion P.

The Colonel divided his men into small groups and advanced on the men, who did not return. Two ladies sulted in the Signal boys capturing eight German prisoners and two machine guns, but the attack caused the loss of Corporal E. Boykin, who did not return. Two ladies during general advance, Sergeant Henry E.

It was ten minutes before 3:00 o'clock the morning about the second, the following hour, along the line, was an inpatient and was approached by many to the St. John Baptist church in Allen street, and I saw the streets about the second, the following hour, and the other way or trying to see through the windows, many of which were of the same kind. I was off the window, and I was in the evening inquire of the first and every seat had been taken on floor and in gallery and the airstres were crowded. The house had been built and the first of the first was the Dr. Harper. In his great lecture, "The Country man in Town."
A church official seeing me beckoned me for the first time, and he also had the front where he had thought fully preserved for me a chair and table.
The great audience of good looking, prosperous men sang with spirit: "I Need The Every Hour," and Rev. Johnes read the 11th chapter of Romans. Seven men then rendered: "Were you there when they crucified the Lord?"
Mr. Harper further preliminaries. Dr. Harper proceeded to deliver his lecture. "Like the man who upon one-hour or one-hour period, I go to the school," said, said, "I am a full of my subject." He went on: "You who have come here today to hear a letter and you are not here, and likewise those who expect to hear only such words as are spoken in the Sunday school." So I want to tell you that the worse I will use today is: 'dam-fool,' but you shouldn't tell me being the moment we are excluded, but I don't say that with it's two hours most of you married men, will be besieged by some of the others, and I am the same things must be told.

I was in hospital with some whites who be out. Are there any? (A voles, there are three or four backyards in the audience). Well, I want to tell you young Colored women to walk around the house of white people in the street. They are forbidden fruit. Once upon a time a white woman tranporter.

On the fatal field of Europe the Negro soldier braved the splashing waters of the cold Jordan's stream and marched with white brother through the valley and shadow of death to make the world free and safe for democracy, and we come to you, to your excellency, as the governor of this great state to ameliorate the home condition, the condition in Texas of the Colored contingent and their race of the khaki'd chad boys, who caused the American eagle to seize autocracy in its tains and with the sparkle of the sun in its eye, to flop his wings and to utter a scream that shoal the consent of Europe from circumference to center and now causes the German nation to shudder with awe and with terror.
We petition you to use your utmost endeavor to chase mobocracy forever beyond the confines of this great state of ours.
Texas is great in size, great in resources, the greatest in the Union; may she under your leadership be the greatest injustice to the Negro race, as a fitting tribute to the loyalty of that race and to the memory of the black boys who died to maintain the honor of their state and dignity of their nation.
The great commoner, the late Invented ex-governor, James Stephen Hogg in his message to the 24th legislature in 1895 among other things had this to say in reference to mob law: "Common sense is against it.

When a man comrades an offense, under the laws of this state, the Constitution guarantees to him a fair, impartial public trial.

The Peace Conference.
Not a day passes but what some body does not bombard me with the question: "King" what's doin' in Paris? "How's the Peace Conference ever? What's we won't terf outer the Peace Conference?"
"Though you under been at the Peace Conference," and such like Wall, I looked in the Bible at Proverba, 28th chapter and the 4th version and it reads this way: Answer a foot according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own conceit; and I thought the holy writ was fair enough.
Just to keep from drifting off into a wilderness of words and meaning less modifiers—just to escape a baptism in an abundance of glittering generalities, which like the apples of Sodom would turn to ashes in your hand are you had shut it up I am appending here the rules which the Peace Conference has adopted. They are worthy a careful reading because by reading them, the sensible mind will see at once that a people situated as are the Colored people in the United States cannot hope to get their grievances before a tribunal whose rules set out the matter to come before it, as well as naming the source from which it must come. The Rules of The Peace Conference are as follows:
Section 1. The conference assembled to fix the conditions of peace and then in the definite treaty of peace, shall include the representatives of the belligerent allied and associated powers. The belligerent powers with general interests—the United States of America, Italy and Japan—shall take part in all meetings and communications. The particular interests—Belgium, Brazil, the British Dominion, and India, China, Cuba, Greece, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Panama, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slama and the Czech-Slovak Republic, at which questions concerning them are discussed. The diplomatic rupture with the enemy powers—Hbolu, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay—shall take part in the sitations at which questions concerning them are discussed. The neutral powers and States of the world may be heard either orly or in writing when nummed by the powers with general interest at sitations devoted to the conflict directly concerning them, but only so far as these questions are
Section 2. The powers shall be represented by plenipotentiary delegates of the United States of America, the British Empire, France, Italy and Japan; three for Belgium, Brazil and Serbia; two for Germany, Switzerland, Media, Portugal, Rounaunia, Siam, and the Czecho-Slovak Republic; one for Haiti, Honduras, Liberia, Nicaragua and Panama; one for El Salvador, Ecuador, Peru and Uruguay. And India shall be represented as follows: Two delegates, each for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the number of delegates may not be the figure above mentioned, each delegation has the right to avail itself of the panel system. The representation of the British Empire by including Newfoundland, and of India, may be included in the representation of the British Empire by including Newfoundland, and of India, may be included in the representation of the delegation of this delegate when the political situation of this country shall have been cleared up. The political situation of Russia shall be fixed by the conference at the moment when the matters concerning Russia are ex-
Technical Delegates
Set 3. Each delegation of plenipotioraries may be accommodated by technical delegates properly accredited. The technical delegates may be present at the sitings for the purpose of furnishing information, which will be allowed to speak for the purpose of giving any desired explanation of the procedure according to the alphabetical order in French of the powers. Set 5. The conference will be declared open by the President of the French Republic. The president of the plenipotiorary shall be invested temporarily with the chairmanship immediately after this (M. Clemencen his life since electronically). A committee composed of one plenipotiorary of each of the members shall proceed at once to the authentication of the credentials of all the members present. A committee of the first meeting the conference will pledge to appoint a permanent president and a technical plenipotiorary of the great powers
Sec. 7. A secretariat, appointed outside the plenipotentiaries composed of one representative of each of the British Empire one of France, one of Italy and one of Japan will be the controlling authority responsible for its operations. This secretariat will be responsible for drafting the protocols of the meeting of classifying the archives, of providing for the administration of the archives and of being responsible for the protocols and archives. The archives will always be open to the members of the secretariat and made public. Sec. 8. The publicity of the procedures shall be insured by official documents and be responsible for the protocols and archives. The archives will always be open to the members of the secretariat and made public. In case of disagreement as to the procedures, the matter shall be referred to the principal plenipotentiaries or their representatives. Sec. 9. Reserved. Sec. 10. All documents intended for inclusion in the protocols must be handed in by the plenipotentiaries.
Sec. 11. Pleipnontieries wishing to make a proposal not connected to the discussion will not arising from the discussion shall give notice of the same twenty-four days not arising from the discussion to the discussions. However, exceptions can be made to this rule in the case of substantive prophetaies, in secondary questions, but not in the case of substantive prophetaies, observations or documents forwarded to the conference or any person who has received and classified by the secretariat. Such of these communications will be summarized in a line to be distributed to all the pleipnontieries. Such communications are an analogous communications are received. All such documents will be
Two Readings.
Section. 12. The discussion of the question to be decided will comprise a first and second reading. The first question will be with the object of obtaining an agreement on matters of importance. Once there will be a second reading with the object of obtaining an agreement on matters of importance. Section. 14. The plenipotentiaries shall have the right, subject to the agreement with the conference, to authorize their technical explanations and points as may be deemed lawful. If the conference thinks advisable to authorize any particular question may be intrusted to a committee of technical delegates, whose duty will be to review the question. Sec. 15. The protocol drawn up upon the secretariat shall be printed and gated in the shortest possible time. To expolite the work by conference, the secretariat shall take the place of the reading of the protocol at the beginning of each meeting. If no agreement is reached on the potentialaries, the text shall be deemitted approved and entered in the
If any alteration is proposed, its text shall be read by the president at the beginning of the following meeting. In any case, the protocol must be read out in full at the request of any plenipotentiary.
Sec. 18. A committee shall be formed for drafting the resolutions adopted. This committee shall concern itself only with questions which have been decided. Its sole duty shall be to draw up the text of the decision adopted and to present it for the approval of the conference.
It shall be composed of five members not forming part of the plenipotentiary delegates and composed of one representative of the United States of America, one of the British Empire, one of France, one of Italy; and one of Japan.
(i) may be, however that the different denominations, sects, etc., which have given certain individuals their traveling expenses to go to Paris will be repaid for their trouble and expense by the information which they may gain by so nearly approaching a world event, and it may be possible for the Coored Americans to "break through" or "go over the top," but just now, it appears to me, that they lead a forlorn hope.

Johnson and Ed. Johnson and daughter, and Mrs. Mackey. They are all musical masters and be trained voices. They rend their own music, carried the audience off its feet time and time again, and the universal audience heard them was. "That is the finest."
ROOBEVELT MEMORIAL
February 9, 1919, has been set aside as . . . he day for the Nationally Memorializing the death of ex-President Theodore Roosevelt, knowing nothing could be done to save him. He should pause at the blair of a fallen patriot and slave attitude for the life of the nation. Volunteers have been written in the vain effort to convince the world of the greatness of Theodore Roosevelt and to words. Fortune for the men who live at this time, that they were persecuted to walk the world side by side with Roosevelt, learn from his noble acts and lofty conceptions, the virtu and nobility of the soul which the other day left behind and clay—who quit the path of morals.
THE NEGLECTED NIGHT SCHOOL
the illiterate and near illiterate your colored men and women of Dallas are overlooked a great opportunity to learn about the advantage of the free night schools which are now open in Dallas, goes without question. The city school system is one of the best for the night session that they make for the day session—in short education is free. Whosoever will may desire to attend the sens of all ages, and offer an exceptional opportunity to those who desire it, and somehow to what they desire. When one steps to think of the large number of young and middle-aged people who can carefully write their own stories, one can imagine time when only those who are informed can hope for jobs that will be appealing to see them lose the

NEGRO DESERVES PROTECTION
Southern Wit's Newspaper Gets Its
Eyes Open—Another Daniel
Comes to Judgment.
Evidence upon evidence is accumulating and all going to show that the days of Judge Lynch in the South are numbered—the clock has struck—times up. The Birmingham, (Ala.) Ledger published in the heart of the South, in a recent issue, printed the following as its editorial. It says:
Is it a mere coincidence that with the signing of the armistice the mob spirit in the South awoke from a sleep of two to three years in perhaps a more virilent form than it has here-to-fore manifested? Is it comforting to our pride as Southerners that none of the recent lynchings have been provoked by assaults upon women? That none of the alleged crimes were such as to deprive ruin of their lives?
After lynching of two Negroes at Sheffield and others in other sections of the South, two Negro youths and two Negro girls, all under 20 years of age, have been lynched at Shubuta, Miss., for the alleged murder of a white man. Let us hope this climax marks the end of the recurrent wave of an unpardonable crime. If for no other reason, let us not forget that the Negro has done these three things:
First—stood by his white owner throughout the dark days of the Confederacy, neither looting, nor betraying, nor harming, but protecting his women folk and his children.
Second—That when German agents sounded their patriotism, the Negro spurned them with contempt.
Third—That, where tried on the western front they gave good account of the war, they courage, cheerfulness and endurance. If higher wages in industrial lines have withdrawn them from the farm they have given up the courage, brunt of the war, let us not forget that in seeking their own financial benefit they have but followed the instructions of the war, in doing so, the void created in one direction has been filled in others by the lack of a racial pride as a result of changed conditions, is it not better to utilize that pride in productiveness than to use it in a reprisal unhappy for both races? Admit the Negro's irresponsibility. Admit that of a child. Is the child responsible for the wartime cruelty? Rather does not the child irresponsible as he is, know and feel injustice as keenly as adults? Is the child responsible in dealing with those under us. Justices first, or we have rebellious, so-called "bad children" and "bad nigro."
We may have our choice. It has all wars been our choice. Unfortunately the fair-minded majority of whites to the left have been the unjust justice of the hotheaded and unjust minority. For our own sake, for our own sake, for our own sake, we must stop leaping. If we quit at verdicts of "death at the hands of unknown persons," as was done at Stuart Park in 1915, we may
GET OUT OF THE CRIMINAL CLASS
Notwithstanding the Jew is universally regarded as the "charp" prophecy, he manages to operate for the Jews. He is indeed the spirit of fair play in the enforcement of law and the pursuit of resolutions and reached agreeable terms which keep him out of the dark well a stranger than the gallows. He is setting an example to the Negro the matter of staying away from confederates. For no other reason than hate, Negro should stay away from the court house. If it is an unwritten law that he no have a place to be, he no have a resolve to not allow himself to be before a jury. If he cannot be a judge, he no have a place to be a heiress, he no have a chest of the pleasure they have in abiding his matters, by so conducting himself as to have no bounty to take time to be a heiress, he owes it to himself to cease to be the jailbird, Negro must, take another look at American prejudice—must investigate, and make up a new battleline. He must find the weakest link in the chain of American prejudice and must be planned and continuous as he is to make any headway against the
Just now the Nigeria's tremendous contribution is the crimes of the war in the Nigerian cities, and when his enemies cart up the boocha, his his compiracions in jal and com-passion in the war, he does not dump him as nothing else does. He can come to be a criminal, and if he is not, he will be on the dock, the respect of the balances of the world for the entire race. The new emancipation of which the late afrisa sotwere are so so eloquent in his words, and he appealed to the Negro to step out of the criminal class, and good will to the Nigerian people.
AGITATION AND PETITION
That agitation is the soul of reform and that the right of petition always exists are over uppermost in the Colored American is coming to believe in their virtue, and . . . he beats it. The Colored American is coming to believe in their virtue, and . . . he beats it. It were well, for sometimes the "powers that be," fearing neither God nor ourriarum man, will do some evil to us. There are bled by petition. There are conditions in America against which agitation should be made until they cause some of these things are intracrassal; other intracrassal; let us cut which is which, and fill up the measure of 1919 to the brim.
Brass Williams was traced at Hillboro, Texas, Monday, Jan. 29, 1919. This item was printed on the front page of every southern white newspaper. It bought a 60-0-0ars black land farm, instead of getting lynchers, these newspapers, and they have not printed a line about him.
There are Colored men in Dallas, who still have little enough sense to look in the city white newspapers for news of the Colored people. Well,

the first two of the Signal Battalion to make the supreme sacrifice
On the 10th of October the 22nd, Division took over the Marbachector, relieving the 16th French Division, the days following installed new lines, and the Nightingale Signal Battalion took over all existing lines of communications, and in the days following installed new lines, the various units of the 22nd, Division. This was no small duty, when it is required to cover a wide area of many square miles, including in it from 50 to 100 miles, and to cover a wide area of many miles was an active front, and time and time again did these boys go ahead repairing lines, establishing new communications, and thought of personal danger—inspired only by that ideal of the Signal Corps man—get communication through at the same time on the famous Hindenburg line before Meta, the 22nd Division, with which I was with during this big attack, was holding the line of Vanderez-11 in the front engagement, which lasted from 7 o'clock the morning of the 10, to 11 o'clock the morning of the 12, and the Corps functured splendidly, and as one man, keeping up communications, installing new lines, repairing those
In writing the "fీnis" to this brief mention of this important army unit made up of young Colored men it is fitting that I fell of the particular work done by the boys of the 1st Platoon on the first day of the Mets battle Shortly after the barrage was lifted the big guns of the enemy began shelling Ponta-Mousson. The first shells, as I vividly recall, hit on the edge of the city, and then gradually they began pepperling the Signal Battalion's station. Sergeant Rufus B Atwood, of the 1st Platoon, was sent to a seaward board. Private Edgar White was operating the switchboard, and Private Clark the buzzphone. Several officers and men were standing in the "dugout" cellar. Suddenly a German shell struck the top, passed through the ceiling and wall, and exploded, making havoc of the cellar. Lleut. Walker, Colored, who arrived just at this time, displayed admirable courage. He took immediate charge and directed things. Sergeant Atwood tried out the switchboard, and found all its lines broken. He found on trying it, the buzzerphone out. He found the switchboard, and found the 1st Platoon.
Corporal Adolphus Johnson on the buzzerphone. The 13 drop monocord board was nailed up by White, and then began the connecting up of the lines from the outside to the monocord board. All this time the shelling around this point, by the German was fierce and deadly—shells hitting all around the boys; struck a near by ammunition dump, causing the explosion of thousands of rounds of ammunition, which caused a terrible shock and all lights to be extinguished. But still the men were still on the ground to leave this dangerous post, a veritable forget for the enemy's big guns until the Lieutenant of the Military Police arrived and ordered them out.
What these boys of the 325th Signal Battalion have learned, respecting radio, telephonic and telegraphic work, will help them to learn that they have learned about it will be of great advantage to them when they return in making a living. The 325th Signal Battalion has been made and the file is made up of young Colored men, has been a marvelous success.

THE "FLU."
The struggle to make the world safe for democracy has ended in victory; but Influenza has not signed a treaty, and the United Nations, almost before we realize its severity, this pestilence has taken hold in the world. In the past four months of our loved ones. During the month of October a hundred and twenty-five patients were transported in Texas alone, and six thousand and death were caused by Influenza, and it is now unable to supply coffins, and many bodies were buried in pine boxes without any death certificate or bipolar diagnosis. The price is no more the price of Liberty than it is a safe guard of Health. The bodies are subdued and there was a general relaxation of precautions and return to normal life. The investigators have not been able to find the specific cause of the disease, which plainly showed itself to be a specific infection. They have been able to suggest any specific remedy for its prevention or control, and improvement of hygienic and disinfection, and improvement of hygiene and infection in the control of its spread. Until more certain data for the prevention and cure of this disease are available, the goal of Health desires to impress the following measures upon the general
1. Neither age, sex, race, nor stature in society offers any indicated risk to the disease. 2. The disease seems to enter the body through the respiratory system, and any conditions giving rise to the disease, such as chancelle and chancelle weather, has given renewed impetus to the subiding lungs. 3. One attack may not insure protection against another, and the most severe complications, or may be the source of the most severe contagion to others. 4. Each case apart from immediate associate and the general public is difficult to assess, sense, but should be carried out as far as practicable. Rest in room in well ventilated room, room special for alimentary tract clean, and not overloading at any time with indigestible food. 5. The disease has disappeared *not only safeguards the person sick from the spread of the cause of the disease.*
5. Disinfection of all articles coming from the slick room, which may have come in contact with any excretion from the slick person, is not difficult and will give certain results. Boil the linen, disheer, and other articles coming from the slick room. Keep your hands washed in the diningfecting solution recommended to you by your attending physician; and don't allow the slick person to breathe into your face. Burn all sweepings collected with precautions of dampened brooms and dust cloths. Don't use common drinking cups, and the common roller towels.
6. Quarantine is effective to the degree to which public opinion in-dorses it in recognition of its necessity. It is too well known that persons recovering from this ailment will drug themselves out to attend to more or less important affairs. They exhale, cough, and sneeze the poles as innocently as they thought-lessly scatter the cause of death. Watch the condensation of your
breath on a cold morning, and you will see how far the globules of moisture can travel. You may be the cause of spreading infection. For this very reason it has been thought that close schools, and prohibit congregation of persons in large gatherings is a good science and good business, it is sound common sense, in the light of our knowledge may follow. During the Christmas holidays special warnings against gatherings and over-crowding are issued.
7. Personal Hygiene. Warm clothing (wholesale, nourishing food, body cleanliness, plenty of open air and invigorating exercise will tend to fortify the general resistance of the individual to either ward off or whether the attack. Keep the feet warm and dry, avoid drafts and sudden changes from warm rooms to the colder outer air. Care for the teeth and nails. Cough and sneeze into your handkerchief, and see that people do not breathe directly into your face. Help the authorities enforce the regulations against spitting in public places. Avoid sure cures, patent medicines, and self-treatment. If an employee is sick, send him home and see that he gets a doctor, and if free from all traces of the disease before being allowed to return to work. He may infect not only your other helpers, but possibly many of your customers.
8. Sanitation. Keep down street dust. See that public buildings and carriers in your community are clean with disinfecting solutions. Keep away from drink stands and cafes, where sterilization of glassware, etc., is performed, and places not properly ventilated with at least an 100 square feet of floor space. Keep drinks and food covered or placed in well ventilated fresh, warm air for each individual. Demand that trash, sweepings, and refuse from all areas be removed or placed in covered canns, not pituted in front in the street.
9. Symptoms. In most of the case, sick sick rather suddenly. The patient feels weak, has pain in the eyes, head, back and knees all over. Some feel tired, weak, and achy. Sensation, fever, and think they are taking cold. This is the time to go home and go to bed, before the dis
Drop business worries, as you will need repose and nervous energy. Keep your head up and progress into very severe complications. If you get out and catch up, you will be more likely to progress into more severe and aggravated form, but you are guilty of criminal neglect. Do not send your neighbor a square deal. Not only send for your doctor, but send for your phone up until you pronounce you well and no further a danger to the com-
These few simple rules will give results, regardless of what contagious disease may be epidemic. Unless the disease is individual, the section, community and State at large, the future can only be judged by the past, which is the loss of Public Health Control in the killing, death, and paralysis of business.
Please read this and pass it along to somebody else. It is worth while to have a committee of at least one spread of Influenza, or any other infectious contagion.

MR. McPHERSON TELLS HOW NE-
GRO SOLDIERS SCALED SAN
JUAN HILL.
Fort Worth, Texas, Jan. 23, 1919.
Mr. McPherson lectured at the Massonic Temple last Friday night to a very nice crowd.
Mounting the platform he showed his certificate of discharge from the same standing above all other similar documents whether issued to black or white. He plunged into his subject following a prayer in which he thanked God for the victory, the 36 states won over whiskey, Thursday, Jan. 16.
He told of his several attempts to join the army and the many hardships attending his efforts, and finally accepted in the 24th Infantry choosing Company "G" which held out the worst of worst things to him.
Here he tells of when the army was scheduled on their way to the front, every citizen there—no Colored lived there—thinking the 24th Infantry was made up of white soldiers, turned out to meet the troop trains and shadow them with the troop trains. But when they saw the black faces, they refused to tender one of the roses. But when the order came to rush the 24th Infantry to the front and the army band struck upon those patriotic airs, making the rheumatic straighten up and the Christians cross their feet and reef from side to side, that city for the first time saw the black man in a new light.
In paying tribute to the Captains, Generals and other officers in command, he said: "But no General who has made any record in the Civil War, or any other war where the Negro fought and he fought in them all—except those who got their training support from Negro soldiers."
That memorable battle on June 3rd. The Spanish men stationed at the crest-top of San Juan Hill, having every advantage of any approaching sweep—yes to wipe out any daring army attempting to ascend the mound, but not, withstanding, less than 100,000 black soldiers braved the night of the year, or of artillery fire solid sheets of fire from the top of San Juan Hill, but on the black boys crawled up the hill until the patriotic and heroic flames bursted forth from their black breasts; they arose to their feet while fire was still raining down upon them, they yelled a yell that can never be deseribed by tongue or pen; a yell which has no other significance than victory; a yell that un-nerved the war goof of Cuba; they yelled like many dragons to search for the geace and geance and the top of the black soldiers went, holding the American flag on the crest of San Juan Hill as the loyal Insignia of conquerors. The Negro soldiers (and his race) do not ask for favors, but just a man's chance.
With reference to the Negro problem, if the monies spent on seeking a solution for the Negro problem were invested in schools, colleges and universities, giving thousands of the funds of Negro cadres, for with two billion Negro soldiers the ground, hell itself must retreat, disband or crumble at their feet, all evil would be adjusted.

HENRY ALLEN BOYD RESPONDS
AT ROOSEVELT MEMORIAL
Secretary of the Sunday School Congress and Corresponding Secretary of the Sunday School Congress, sedation Speaker before National Republican Committee for 13,000,000 Negroes.
Chicago, IA, H. Jan, 10, 1919.
With a sign of deep emotion caused by the death of Boyd, the secretary of the Sunday School Congress, and the corresponding secretary of the National Negro Congress, address in the National Republican committee here today, which was in Chicago. A Rosewell Memorial meeting. There were representatives from various states, and the speakers were the Governor of Rhode Island, the Governor of Iowa, and the Governor of Kentucky.
Rev. Mr. Boyd was the only Ngore speaker at the Memorial meeting, and he was the only one censured. In fact, he said in part: "Mr. Chairman, on behalf of three millions of loyal American citizens of the United States and every stripe in Old Glory that floats above us, I wish to add our names to the list." He said about the late Colonel Theoreo Koosevelt. While the Negroes held a meeting in New York to discuss questions of public interest. He did not discriminate against race, color or previous condition of servitude. He held a meeting with the men of them all. He was one of the brightest stars in the horizon, and he was one of the golden West, it is only for a time. We believe his work will take on new life and inspiration by the examples set. He was a man, as we knew him, who did not want to pay its respect. Our 1,067,000 weekly circulation has already told the story of the fallen hero.
Abusing a man among your friends is not an option to repeat your words, will never be.

The National Baptist Theological Seminary and Bible Training School, which has been moved to Nauphil, Tennessee, has been moved to Nauphil, Tennessee. Tenn, has been moved to Bible Training School University. The removal has taken place to enhance the atmosphere of the institution, and is possible by the inducements offered for the change of the location, Roger Williams University, consist of a campus of twelve acres, with three brick and two frame buildings there. The trustees of Roger Williams University consist of the president of the Baptist Missionary Convention of Tennessee, which owns and controls the University, extends the trustees' jurisdiction by the trustees' theorized by the Convention in Nashville, Tenn., on Nov. 21, 1918, in connection with the upon necessary terms for the union of the two schools: "Resolved that the trustees of the Convention of this Convention and the trustees of Roger Williams University possess the necessary arrangements for the local correlation of Roger Williams University and the Baptist Missionary Convention of Seminary and Bible Training School, that is necessary for the blending of
The National Baptist Educational Board, at a meeting held in the city of St. Louis, Mo., in September, 1918, clothed a special committee with the authority to act upon the invitation to transfer the school to Nashville, whenever suitable terms were offered. This committee accepted the invitation of trustees of their Roger Williams University and thus the transfer has been made.
Having been apprised of the foregoing facts, and knowing of the auspicious opening of the National Baptist Theological Seminary which took place on Dec. 11, 1918, we, the undersigned committee, designated by the commission of the National Baptist Convention, hereby express our approval of the action taken. We state upon our own knowledge that aمرتبطor faculty has been chosen and now work. We therefore urge that the Seminary be aided in every way possible, and that it be attended by all ministers and missionaries, Sunday School teachers and religious workers seeking Bible knowledge for Christian work.
We also take pleasure in stating that Roger Williams University is a literary school of high order, and all who desire a literary education can secure it, along with theological and Biblical mining.
Board and lodging for ministers and Bible students is ten dollars per month, with a charge of fifty cents per month for tuition.
Board for other students is twelve dollars and fifty cents per month or more. More than fifty are now enrolled. Commending the school to the prayers, patronage and support of the students, the Convention and all friends of religious progress, we are. Your respectfully. E. C.

Our Charter Rights.
The National Baptist Educational Board, that is now conducting this National Baptist Theological Seminary and Bible School, was chartered in Washington, D.C., March 1st, 1902.
Among other things, that charter says: "The name, style and title of this corporation shall be the National Educational Board, and it shall have perpetual existence.
Second. The object of the said National Baptist Educational Board shall be (a) to establish, maintain and conduct educational institutions throughout the United States and foreign countries, under the nuss-plees of the NATIONAL BAPTIST CONVENTION OF THE UNITED STATES, such institutions to be owned, controlled and managed by Negro Baptists:

(c) To take, hold and receive any property, real, personal or mixed, by virtue of any grant, donation or devise or bequest contained in any last will and testament of any person whatsoever, etc.
You see what our charter gives conventional control.
What is a Theological Seminary?
Webster says theology is the "science of God and His relation to His creatures." He says a seminary is an "institution of education." Hence, a theological seminary is an institution of education for teaching people the science of God and His relation to His creatures.
That is what we did two years in Howe Institute. That is what we are now doing in Roger Williams University, until we can get permanent quarters, adjacent to the University. Fifteen acres have been faithfully promised by the Baptist State Convention of Tennessee.
How Some Other Baptist Theological Seminaries Started
The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary started in Purnam University, in Greenwich, Va., in 1872. It has a brick or a stone of their own. It is now at Louisville, Ky, with a large campus. Theological Seminary, at Rochester, N. t. been in the University of Kentucky, as a congregation of Baptist bakers. It is a congregation of Baptist bakers that makes the plank or brick house that makes the church, but the congregation.
We have paid out hundreds of dollars to ministers and missionaries in Memphis and have aided poor students of ministers and missionaries in a bank in Nashville, Tenn., today (Dec. 27, 1918) for the Theological Seminary, William Williams University, where our nary and Bible Training School is located. The white brethren have encouraged our course, for here is what they said in black and white, when we went to the Bible Training School. "Your report has the right ring," they said. "With something definite to work for, the success of the enterprise will be the more assured." B. F. I hope that your forward movement will be successful." B. E. Muller.

GOOD MONEY FROM BAD EGG
Jim Buckley Finally Proved Truth of Saying That He Was Fond of Repeating.
"That nirn nothin' in the world bat is good for some thing" is one of the favorite sayings of Jim Buckley of Bucks County. Buckley is a thrifty soul. He farms in summer and traps in winter and between wheat and furs he is growing rich. One morning his wife was cooking eggs into a skillet and was starting toward the door to throw it away when Buckley stopped her. The man didn't throw that egg away," said Buckley.
"But it's rotten," protested his wife. "Makes no difference," declared the plumber. "That nirn nothin' in the world bat."
"James Buckley," exclaimed his wife, "I've heard that a thousand times." The wolf never sniffs at the doors of the prosperous farmers of the Peace river country. But foxes are different animals—is something you don't know—rotten eggs are rated as a applause.
That night Buckley set a trap in a popper grove near his home and baited it with the rotten egg. He hoped to catch it, but the rotten egg had latten when he went out to his trap next morning, what do you think he found? The biggest silver fox buckley ever clapped his ears. On he sold the pelt to a man who wanted it. "A right nice lot o' money to hatch from a rotten egg," rummaged Buckley, as he stuffed the money in his pocket. "I've alley allowed that their alley is a good for something."—Chicago Post.
ONE GOOD THING FROM WAR
Cocone Nut, Hiltarto Considered Only as a Nuisance, Has Been Made Article of Commerce.
Before the war the cocone, which grows freely in the Southern Americas, on large trees of the palm family, was literally such a hard nut to crack that its vegetable oil had no place in commerce and the tree was known chiefly as a botheration to banana planters when they wished to enlarge their plantations. Eleventh hundred pounds' pressure is required to crack the cocone nut, and there was no machinery for doing it. Then government, experts said that nothing else in the world would provide such good carbon for gas masks as the coconut nut, and the United States financed the creation of machinery for cracking it, thus starting a new and important industry.

When a Maid Laughs
By BERTHA R. McDONALD
(Copyright, by McChire Newspaper Syndicate)
When John Lawrence left his home on the outskirts of town and took the little girl he met and the maid he walked as though he were treading on air. His heart was in tune with all the world and the autumn sun, just setting, seemed a great pot of gold, at the end of the day, she began bedding him on toward everlasting happiness. Lilith had given him to understand that afternoon that she really cared—Lilith, who had coquetted with her, she began bedding him to school. There could be no mistake about her attitude this time, her open encouragement permitting but one interpretation.
May I come—tightly? he had whispered as he was leaving her.
"Try and see," she answered coyly, wristing him a butterfly kiss from the tip of her fingers. And he was going to be the one that was the one that the future that very evening, come what may, and he was thinking with honest pride, as he walked along, of the nesting in the navy bank which he had been in. When he was almost in front of the house he heard a sound of laughter and overmarching from within, like a song in the song his heart was singing. "Bother take it! he muttered. 'Why shouldn't she have been alone tonight?' "Here he is!" shouted Lillith grym, answering his ring; "let's make him stride the wind." And she played playfully into the living room, divested of over gurganes and adorned with a huge gurgan apron, which Lillith tied under his arm. The music roles are very becoming," she whispered with a blushing smile which set his heart to beating a brisk tattoo. "Here the spoon, and don't you stop beeping the spoon, and I give you perk."
She closed his fingers over the spoon with an inflectionate pat, turned the bluse a trifle higher under the chafing sleeve of his shirt with Hugh Ritch. Still John had no thought save that of being in Lillith's home for just one purpose, which he meant to accomplish in spite of vision. "Why all the illiteracy here this evening?" he inquired casually of Nell Habsely, who had taken a place behind the desk. "Nothing special that I know or, Lillith just teleloaded late this afternoon that she thought a chafing dish party would be, so we all came over." The old trick of playing with fire once too often. John was condemned she must have known what he was coming for and, in the courage born of desperation, there was no time like the present. "Lillith, come here," he cried.
The new note of determination has his command started the girl who was playing she was not in the habit of doing.
"As your service, captain," she mocked, saluting, soldier fashion, as she slipped into the chair vacated by
“I don’t know a thing about it, and neither do I care a rapt!” he answered doggedly. “I came here to see you alone and you deliberately planned this—”
"I love it like the red, red rose," she sang, interrupting him, while she took the spoon from his hand, turnin' out the blase and began beating the steaming mass as though her very life depended upon it. "Now, fellow citizens," I called out, "we'll soon have something detectable to please your sweet teeth, if John will carry it out to cool."
She poured the fudge up, a platter and held it out to him in such a half-frightened, pleading way that, as usual, he fell before the spell of her wonderful eyes and found himself carrying the candy obediently to the back-porch. Just a dash of tea braving a light air reestablished his determination and he, to be off the spoon as he strode angrily into the hall, "Must you go, John?" Littleton "knew that, with a faint note of concern in her voice."
"I shall not stay here and have you mock me for one more second! You knew—you must have known—I was coming here tonight to ask you to be my wife, and you've played with me just as long as you've got it! What's your answer?"
He led her into the restitule an' shut the door, just as the rest of the party adourned to the back porch to examine the candy, so they were alone.
"Will you marry me?" he went on, taking her up between his hands and raising her eyes to the level of his own. "Answer me—will you?"
A pet of hysterical, mocking laughter was not only reply, and John Lawrence left her, going out without another word. As he was she's the enhourd track, taking the short cut home, his heart was heavy. Lillith and deliberately laughed in his face after boldly encouraging him to speak. There was only one other thought in his mind and that was to get away from for as far as as fast as he could.
He was directly reachin that the whole of the right expression had s泊 an around the curve two other side of the
pled with his own thoughts to notice the mirepired rail in the truck toward which the heavy train was whirling, and he had to grade the rail. He had just time enough to jump aside when the engine crashed through out end of the little bridge and detailed the two or three cars behind it. Almost instantly the night air was filled with cries of hysterical women, frightened children and the monos of the injured, and John Lawrence, for fear of being pulled, plately, rushed toward offer assistance. In an incredibly short time most of the town had flooded to the point where John worked hard, pulling away pieces of the car, out fire which started in many places and carried the injured to places of safety. The child in his arms he was passing beneath the glare of a brakeman's latent when two hands grasped his arm and a frightened voice cried out. You are safe, you are safe! I watched you start home this way and I was afraid you might have been killed. He placed the child upon a heap of nearly blankets and gathered the sobs on his face.
"Would you have cared, Limber?"
"I should-died—died—too!" she whispered. "And, John, dear, I never try to tease you again."
AS TO MEN AND HUSBANDS
According to This Writer There is a Subtle Diffusion between the Two Species.
Immediately after the wedding ceremony men become dull and uninterested and turn into husbands, says a writer in Judge. Husbands are all the same, and they are social gathering by the same set expression about the eyes and mouth.
It is more trouble to teach a husband to fetch and carry than a fox to fetch and carry. Acts much better when there is company around. Husbands wait until some Sunday morning when you have distinguished guests with you for the back of the closet and pull things off the high shelves and go through the bag bag. They appear at the breakfast table in the coat of one suit, the dress of the other, and with an inch-wide tie laid in a four-in-hand as a finish.
And when you advertise your borer in a frantic effort to convince the husband of a berry abortion any and every husband will assume an air of bewildered innocence and say:
"Why, what's the matter with this? It hurts me every Sunday when there's no one here!"
Husbands always keep the Sunday papers on the floor. No man ever does this until he is married. His mother never does it. Husbands read to you the printed recipes they find on the woman's page of the paper. They get enthusiastic about cooking and clarel they would rather die than eat and say: "Now, there's an idea for you. Why can we ever have something like that?" Women acquire a husband for much the same reason "that a man gets a cue. They are a fearful bother, but they are a better appearance with one in hand.
WASPS SWAYED BY EMOTION
Observations Made by Naturalists
Prove That They Have Qualities
Akin to Her Anin s.
A book, *Wasp Studies Allied*, by Hill and Nellie Raine (I Princeton University Press) maintains, giving instances, that insect—wasps, to be exterminated, are capable of attacking. The evidences are plausible.
A wasp, after regaining her蜘蛛 following a long search, ponounced on it by a small insect, which later some wridlocke anta approuched her burrow she kicked at them anguily and curled her sting menacingly. The wasps certainly displayed anger when a spider she was mourning made one leap and escaped. She grew frantic; she became so excited that she captured that she acted calmly, walking about the ground to a freaky ill, she tumble into a mole's hole. Still another wasp, examining broodlings, captured an acted calmly ill she arrived at a certain pile of loose earth. Her demerion instantly changed as she "struck pay dirt." She became greatly exasperated and quirking with exasperations.
One's Own Interests
The woman t. longer young who is earning her livelihood should make it a point to have a certain portion of her income that it may be. Systematic saving leads to habits of theft and gives the person deprived upon his own efforts a feeling of security. Furthermore, the person will well be well to pass by many dress fads of the hour. Fashion is a wavering and an changeable as an April say, and will still remain constant as will愈来愈 serve her best interests by timing to quiet, conservative effect—Xchange.

GOOD POINTS
Hot-Tempered Woman Evidently Not Altogether Bad.
Surely No High-Priced Lawyer Could Have Surpassed Pathetic Plea
There was a negro family living in Bowing Green, Ky. The wife has a notoriously ungovernable temper limiting a wound so painful and dainty that who was meek and lowly. On this occasion she struck him with a skillet inflicting a wound so painful and dainty that he was taken to the hospital for treatment. The neighbor, knowing the violent temper of the wife, and the fact that he had been wounded her husband for such a long time so outraged they could endure it no longer, and procured a warrant for his arrest in the range of assault with a deadly weapon. The husband sat through the trial, giving rent attention to its every detail, and being sent to the jury and after very brief deliberation it brought in a verdict of guilty. The old darky husband rose and
"Marse Jaure, I don't reckon next a oleiger could say you would make much diffence, but I would ask to say you would be a penitentiary, to the penitentiary. She's always been a good mother to the chillin, all the neighbors will tell you that. She's always been a friend for 'em, and keeps a clean mends for 'em, and an when she sick she sits up with 'em at night. And, Mara and an when she lets her sick she let not her let go by the house and see the chillin befo' you send her to the penitentiary. 'Her at home all alone she is not going to be out and it would do 'em good, and the olean 'onan, too if she could just go and also 'em good-by befo' she was. By this time the judge and the spectators were in tears and the judge said: "Gentlemen the jury, I want you a few minutes to further consider this case. I will be glad to grant it." The jury retired and is returned with a violet of not guilty."
Sailor Values Charm.
The king and queen recently received at Windsor castle the Australian, New Zealand and South African press delegate now on a visit to Great Britain, where she met the military of the Dominion troops, and exchanged collections of his empire tour of 1001. When Mr. Priniola and the commander of Maggle Papakura, the Maori guide who conducted the king round the hot springs wonderland of Rotorua, the king requested to learn that she is now in England. The New Zealand delegates found that Princess Mary knew all about the hot springs and was creeping the battle-cruiser New Zealand—that she would go into action within a given number of years and would be able to prove her captain wore a Maori turtleneck (greenstone charm). The first part of the prophecy came true, and so up to now she does not forget to wear his turtleneck.
Passed by Sentry
A colonel of a colored regiment coming in about 10:30 was duly challenged by the sentry, and rescued: "Colonel, officer of the camp: The colonel sent me to the darkness, gave it up, and finally said: 'Ooh, man, yo-all do deft man what's done tried to make me think he's Cunnel—— Go wad way dut stuff.' The colonel pretty warmly resigned, he was with Colonel and demanded immediate admirer. The guard, maddened, told him to step up so that he could see him. The colonel walked up in a hure, and you were in the darkness. The sentry took hold of the silver sage on his shoulder, looked up at him with a rwith on his face and said: 'The dole bird, ain't it?' The Bayonet.

Marie, who was three Thanksgiving was out trying her new mask, and she got a grocery bag. Mother, not having worn her "fro" pro-teacher, sent Marie in to make the purse. Mother saw the new bag, and she seemed at a distance, seated.

Door, "Ten, coins worth," replied Marie, "the wanted a peek," said the grocer.
Geoll Rhedee Dream Released
Cecil Rhodes' Dream Realized.
The early completion of a tunnel under the ocean will connect with the tunnel from Dover to Calah, will practically complete an all-rail connection between Cape Town and Calah, will more than realize the dream of Cecil Rhodes of a Cape-Town railway, will more than realize the along the Harbour coast will be simple matters when the intervening waters have been engulfed. England is taking hold of the Ghilharine tunnel in a way that will ensure access of that granite oceans.
Characteristic of Mrs. Hobbs Shewed
She Differred in No Way From the
Rest of Her Sex.
"Does your wife ever—"
"That was as far as Hobbs got when
his office mute, hobbs broke in;
"What do you mean?" "Anything. I don't know what particular feminine idiosyncrasy you are going to ask, but whatever it is, she will." "Well, what I was going to say—every night after supper my wife wants me to read the nurse to her. She says that the least I can do, as she says, is to teach her how to well. Weil, that's all right. She gets in her little sewing or knitting chair and the children take up their usual positions on the door, with their paper dolls and a toy car. She takes over the easy chair and the paper and start on one of the most thrilling stories. Before I get a paragraph read, she sends the oldest girl out for a glass of wine and then takes her to the little one is sent upstairs for the accusers. Then the children get in a fuss about the paper dolls and my keeps up a barrage of conversation to get them straightened out, all the time telling me to go right ahead with the reading. Sometimes, right in the midday, she gets up a barrage of conversation, she gets up without a word and go out to the kitchen to get something she wants or to attend to something she's forgotten and if I quit reading, she'll ask me what I'm stopping for."
"They all do it," said Nobbs. "But that isn't what makes me mad, man. I don't want to be mad. I think she isn't paying the least attention to what I'm reading. I attempt to catch her. I illicit all of a sudden and I can't stop. I don't want the word of what I'm reading. And blamed if she don't call me every time she goes to the gym. Graph, almost word for word. It beats me. Me," too," said Nobbs. "But they all do it."
The Horseshoe Won.
The print of a horsewoman in soft earth will always have the power to stir a young Missouri soldier, even enough to forget the sounds of war.
"I don't know yet how I went through a shading on Friday, the 13th, when I was in the Army, with an artillery Settle of Fayette, with an artillery company of the Eighty-ninth division.
"The Bochees had been putting over a lot of high explosives. We had been digging in at night, keeping in shallow shelters all day and trusting to luck. I was in the Army, with an artillery about the superposition of the old horsewoman saved my life once on that day, anyway.
"I folded and I picke out a low fold in the ground for temporary shelter and were proceeding toward it, when I saw the print of a horsewoman in a "well."
"I said, 'as this is Friday, and the "well," sergeant, let sit on the old horsewoman.' I went in and a minute later the trot in and a minute later the low fold we had first started for was blown to the winds. That was one time, you can be. That not ashame."
Art to Be Recovered
One of the arts which must be repaired after the war is the art of conversation. A subcommittee in the ministry of reconstruction might look into it. It will be to small purpose that we have to learn to communicate, to achieve the citizenship of women, improved the art of cooking and performed many other unseen, executed fonts, if the genial reflection of all this, and indeed the very attitudin to action, is not there. The cookery and conversation is a notorious and not a frankish one. It is the chef's aim to set us free for ideal pleasures. We must talk at meals, but we need not talk about our food, but we need doing that too long. —London Times
Euras From the Arctic
Capt. Louis L. Lane, a veteran of the Arctic trade and miner, is on his way to northern Canada as an advance scout for a vast chain of fur traps. He will be in Boston firm. More than $1,000,000 of choice fur annually will be shipped to Seattle. Wash. from the company's stations and then disembark. He will be "weave" for 28 fur stations along the Athabasca, Peace and Mackenzie rivers and expect to establish 25 more," said Lance when he departed. "From there we will be shipped around Point Barrow to Seattle, a distance of 3,000 miles."
The Long Arm.
The war has furnished many strange coincidences. Here is another. A young officer came home on leave and was fired by the Germans, but which had evidently been among ammunition captured from us. We thought it would interest her, and it did, for she was working on the munition works in which she worked. It interested her still more when she told her own mark on it.
Their Revenge.
In Russia, Russia must be a
great power.
"In what way?"
"In hearing the Russian correspond-
ents worry over the linguals and Amer-
icans."
A Change of Boarding Places
By S. B. HACKLEY
(Copyright by McClure Newspaper Syndicate)
"Le's go past Miss Cecell's house! Gavver, why not?
Ned Duncan, strolling along quiet palm-hooded Marvin street, in the dark, made himself smile at the elf that dragged on his long fine hands, but he turned back before they reached the corner on which was the rented room of Cecell Reeves, the woman he loved.
Cecell, a young miller who took four college-girl rooms to help on her income, bent her yellow head on her desk, and caught sight of his retreat. She had meant to give them some flowers when they passed. She knew he loved the holotype. Had she offended him? she
While she puzzled, with a heart hurt, Driscoll was saying to himself: "I must keep away—I must not see her any more. I must not see her any more. My child—she must love my little Babs!"
In the fourth year of Barbara's life, when she had black eyes had come to them. Then the next year Barbara died, and the baby, an eighth, whimsical, lovable thing, had rumbled up some under, when his widow was gone. Barbara was cousin's somewhat grumpy housekeeping and nursing.
Then the old cousin had remarked, "The girl was the burglar, but its crown of purple blossom-covered bougainvillea, and he and the child had boarded since then, somewhat to Rabs disadvantage, he thought some Cecilia had fallen in love with Cecilia He had thought she was the "mother kind" of girl (Rabs loved her) until she was taken to the hospital, was certain she was not. Then he had decided he couldn't ask her to marry him. Not that he was certain she would marry him it he did ask her,
His landlady of the last month had been Miss Reeves' friend until Driscoll and little Barbara came to her boarding house, and it occurred to her that her quiet boarder, who had something to do with the management of the city waterworks system, would be an ideal second husband. Then after the evening Cecilia came to take dinner with her and her "prize boarder" walked home with her, Mrs. Akers was no longer Cecil's friend.
Somehow in the last week she had made the impression on Driscoll that Cecil didn't like children. He had come home a little earlier than usual the evening before and started to the kitchen.
“I wonder Ned keeps that child since his wife died and he has no one to care for her,” he heard Cecil’s soft clear voice. “I am going to try to persuade him to let me find a place for her in a home!”
Driscoll felt as though something had struck him. He turned and went upstairs. She—she didn't want him to keep little Babs—she cared so little for his baby she would persuade him to send her to a home!
The child dropped the doll Mrs. Akers had bought her that day and sprang into his arms. He kissed the eager little face over and over.
"Oo, Cecell--girl--did you think that you could persuade me to do a conscienceless thing like that?" he thought, "I should tell Mrs. Akers "favors" have come. Mrs. Akers was already aware of the fact. She had heard his step in the back hall; she knew he had heard Cecell's last remark. Mrs. Akers have just now when I came in" Driceall asked at dinner. "I thought I heard her voice."
As Driscoll lifted the child to her chair Mrs. Akers, noting his set lips, felt that she had scored. Who was to see her? Mrs. Akers, of old Ned Mount, a destitute cripple who persisted in keeping his tiny orphaned grandchild in dirt and squater? That evening when the little girl slept Driscoll got out that other Barbara's picture, a thing he did not often do—much as he had loved her—since she was a child. "The house of the heart has many chambers, Barbara, dear," he said to the picture, "and I wanted to put that in which you stay, but oh, Barbara—Barbara—I love her!" But she doesn't love the child—I didn't ask her to carry Barbara." After she saw Driscoll turn away from her gate, Cecilia went to the theater with Luceen Glover, a faithful admirer whom she particularly admired. Driscoll, moody and unhappy, pretended interest in the play, but he had one thought. Glover had no right to buy her her favorite Richmond roses.
Two weeks later came the day of the annual rose carnation. Little Baba, wild with excitement, went to see the prince in the cure of Mrs. Akers. That lady, impressed in the conversation, of a friendly, friend, gave the restless Seed Scroll seated above her, the little girl climbed to her and leaned
confidently against her. Cecil squeezed the pimp little body to her, and kissed the witching little face. She came to see you any more, she whispered; "he fluk you don't like little girls!" Cecil's head grew hot. Had Else Akes put that and other ideas in his mind, Little Babs danced away, but in less than five, minutes Cecil heard the scream of terror. She sprang to her feet. "My baby! My baby! Where are you?" Then she saw the child—her light dress blazing. Somebody had dropped a piece of burning paper. A mist swam before Cecil's eyes, but she looked up at her tan wooden cape around the child. "It's all out—the little girl isn't hurt!" she heard somebody saying. "What are you doing?" That evoking Cecil, waited on like a queen by her four college girls, frowned a little when the doorbell rang. "What are Lucen Glover," she told them, "tell him I'm asleep, anything—only send him away." But it was Drescoll that came in. He started to take her hands, but seeing
Cecil smiled tremulously in his troubled face. "Don't feel bad," she told him, "my hands are only blistered because I have been healed in just a little white. How is my- how is Bab?"
"I left her asleep," he answered. "I don't hurt at all. Sneebeged me to be healed in just a little white." I suppose, "she updied her up head, 'you told her I didn't like little girls. What have you heard me said, Ned Driscoll, to make you think that me he colored hot, but he told her, and of Mrs. Akes' subsequent remark. With fanning face Cecil explained. "I'm ashamed," he said presently, "I am not a girl." "Oh, Cecil, I'm ashamed to tell you what is in my heart! Forgive me, I need." Eye twinkled. "I think you need a change of boarding place!" "No, he said, 'I need to be in my own home with the girl of my heart; but when I think what you must have thought of me these unhappy two weeks' "What's two weeks?" She leaned toward him. "Oh, Ned, what's two weeks out of a lifetime?" Then, very carefully, as so not to buttress hands, he took her in his arms.
SOME OLD-TIME BIG CATTLE
One English Ox, History Shows, Weighed 3,700 Pounds, Another 4,340 Pounds.
With all the modern improvement in breeds, of live stock it may be doubted whether there is living today a steer or ox or equil in size to some of the breeds. In 1845 there was disposed of by raffle at Pratt's Old London Inn, in Taunton, a giant ox of the breed, and weighed 3,700 pounds. But this one was not in it with the Durham ox which earned a modest fortune for its owner, John Day, and browd the now famous steer, but it put a little more than a century ago. A writer in the Mark Lane Express described this extraordinary animal as having weighed when two years old at eight years old and eight years old at eight years old his carcass dressed 2,478 pounds, while his live weight at that time was stated to have been 2,800 pounds, just inch behind the shoulders. His owner exhibited him six years through England and Scotland, having a vow for his convalescence about the country, and he was dislocated his hip and had to be killed.
Favorite, the sire of this bovine wonder, was made famous by the prodigious sire and remarkably fine form of the breed. He was born at Darlington, who is regarded as the founder of the Shorthorn breed, sold all his cattle at auction in 1810 and sold them to a farmer who brought $5,000, and sig cows by him, some of them eleven years old, made an average of $720, which was used for days and for many years afterward.
Storm Steps Hanging
An eighteenth century execution on Kensington common was stopped for a time to a strange cause. On August 14, 1683, the date of the execution, a heavy forcue over London, accompanied by thunder and lightning and torrents of rain. The execution took place 48 hours, and many people believed that the last day had arrived. When the time fixed for the execution arrived the crowd cried shame when the world was coming to an end. As he persisted in his preparations, they burst through the barriers and stopped the proceedings, shouting that the execution would be a few minutes, when the grand summons would come for all. The sheff had to obtain the assistance of the mailers before the execution could be carried out—London Chronicle.

WASTOOPREVIOUS
WASTOOPREVIOUS
Sarcasm That Berlin Newspaper Probably Regrets.
Propehy That American Soldiers Would Soon Grow the Rhine and Enter German Fortresses Has Been Very Literally Fulfilled.
The most bitty irony that came out of Germany during the war was contained in the Berlin Lokal Angeleger, a little more than a year ago. Several German generals were killed and the Germans. They were dragged all over the empire and exhibited to the enraged populace, just to show the Germans that the Americans were not the only people fortunate prisoners arrived in Berlin the paper printed the following under the heading, "Good Morning, Boys?" "Three Sisters for the American Civil War," he declared. Scarcely have they touched the soil of this putrefied Europe when already they are forcing their way into Germany. Before long they will cross the border to the American frontier trespasses. That is express train speed for American smartness.
"It is our good fortune that we are equipped to enter numerous guests and to visit the quarters for these gentlemen. However, we cannot promise them dumplins or jam, and to this extent they will be obliged to recieve from their
"As Americans are accustomed to travel in luxury and comfort, we assume merely represent carriers for larger numbers to follow.
"We are sure the latter will come, and they believe they possess the biggest and most colossal everything, but such establishments as we have here they look here. "Look here, my boys, here is the big firm of Hindeburg & Co. with which you want to compete. Look at its accomplishments and consider whether you sign your sign and engage in some other line.
"We charge your boss. Witness, will reconsider his newest line of business before we grab off more of his young people."
"Dear chap们 are, it cannot be denied." Yes, they are. "dever chap's. So clever that, a short year after the surreal was printed in the newspaper, they are actually cross-cropped fortresses which seemed so secure when the flippant editor gibed the ill-titled of soldiers who had been overrun."
Yank Artillery Made Record
The French take more pride in their artillery than in almost any other feature of their military service, writes John H. McCarthy, a street Journal editor. In this war they must arm their men in effective gunnery. The American boys watched the French move 18% inch guns into position in 45 minutes, and the motors. Then the Frenchmen saw the American boys do it in 12% minutes, and they did not use either horses or motors.
Marty American officers and men put the French into action and they were the talk of the town at a time afterward the French called upon their officers for themselves and all their man power to do this work when the war ended.
When the Germans met the American gunners they thought a new kind of rapid fire three-inch gun had come into the war because it shot so much more rapidly.
How He Got Needed Umbrella, W. M. Hughes the premier of Australia came by an umbrella through little rain. A fond of telling the tale against Islam.
While he was walking home one pich-teleight a sadden storm broke and seeking shelter from the storm, he walked near the nearest doorway. After waiting the door opened, minutes, he spied a small boy coming along with an emoisonal umbrella. The preacher, thinking the owner was shrewd, called out sharply: "HI, the emoisonal man. Where are you going with that umbrella?" The land, startled at the sound which apparently emanated from nowhere, dropped the umbrella and dug up the emoisonal lens would carry him. He vanished. And Mr. Hughes' predestination was solved.

The incumbent brings together a brilliant assembly, also brought the declaration from President Wilton that "the peril of France if it continues, will be the peril of the world, and not only must France the world must organize against it." The meeting of the supreme council was attended by President Wilson and the representatives of the other four great powers. An hour was given over to hearing M. Noulson, the French ambassador to Russia, who summed up his views thus: "The Bobolinke power in the capacity of the entente. It is the enemy for the Russian defection from the entente. It furnished Germany with food during the war. It protested against the terms of the German

For a quarter hour only the orcites and broken the silence in the Compound archdon, where old Tobias and Jehmin and Minuea, their granddaughter and him, fellen wisenshe. Then Minuea spoke. "Zack wants me to run and off him, grandpupsey, after father Lord, L怒ry, don't see" "old Tobias faded eyes were pitifully beseen." "Stay by us, honey. We ford in our old ones like you, Nerry!" Minuea smiled fairly. "I told Zack, grandpupsey, I couldn't marry you and offily mistreat you and grandmamma if I married against her and was Zaccharia frieeted?" the grandmother asked anxiously. Minuea crissened. They must not know how Zack was "treated" "wasted" away until I went for him. "I—there's me!"
In southern Appalachia it is customary for the aged father and mother to be with the youngest brother and best friend, who was an unusually large one—a most desirable home, and Ellen, the wife of the oldest son by skillful mentoring, to your youngest son, and his wife, Phoebe, away and to get her own family installed. She herself, she depended almost entirely on her young daughter, her only child, to do the work of the house, and to keep her services she had determined Minerva should not marry her, into her house and rule, as she did Joshua, the girl's heenephooted father. Her order, Zachariae Barden, who was not the "humble sort" she desired for a slow-air, low-stair from the Compound house, but Zack was resourceless and managed趣 to see the gentle little creature who gave a guardian angel to the old ones. "Cryin', Jennym" did Tolias, heartening in Jennym' hearted unnessy, Jennym wiped her eyes. "I got to studyir' by Minerva a wailin' on her happiness on account of us and it worried me some, Bias!"
After Jennifer slept, Billy stilts on the hearth. Minerva was delicate, like their Bettie who had died in her bed. Minerva was the soldier aweheart that had not been willing for her to have had been under cuban palms. "Little Hertie" "Little Hertie" he had died in her bed, let her bed her way about Jess Dusty, she might not have pined away. Jess, he was a bad boy I wish I hadn't stood in her way. I do wish it. Lord. "I do wish it." Minerva his heavy guns awakened Jehnia. "The pain Doc Higgins said was from my heart, it's pincin' a little." he lahored out, his hand circling his arms, his rugged old face chalky. Jennima trembled as she measured out the drops the young doctor had left for him. The doctor had warned him not to drink his bins, and he had worried because he had caught her crying about Minerva. "You reckon you worked too hard at the apples. Bins?" she asked him when at last he got him between the
"No. I go to thinkin' about our little Hettie. I was wichie! I can gock them sixteen years and tell you that I should just bring them night marry before he wont to the fightin'. Then the pain struck me. She patted his hands in gentle soothing. 'Hettie and Jess wont say anything' like that he said. The Lord to that. Now try to go to sleep. But it was long before he closed in. They could come and live with and it tings would be all right. "Jennum heard him mourning over and over in his sleep. If "Elf" was wilful, "Then once he cried out; and it tings would be all right" like "Elf" Can't you see it? When he was quiet again, Jennium arrose and dressed herself! If he wore rihdeh much more he might be living with her. And had two attacks close together might kill him. I can find my way to Anon Burden's and to beherm. "Some way, some way." Two hours later she stood breathless in the Burden's yard on the top of the mountain. The dog slept, fear of him set her knees shaking, and night marry before he wont to the fightin'.
Near the dawn, when Zack helped her off the gentle mute he had led her to the kitchen, she was sliding like the eastern star. A few days later when Eliza came home from Miranda Mulkiner's "quitug," she was enclosed with wrath. She was a woman, and had dragged to Ran that her daughter, Magnolia, had taken Zack Burden "away" from Eliza Company. She was pulling "pulling" was done, officious neighbors

to Magnolia.
TOO STRONG ON
Minerva drooped visibly. Her grandfather fretted.
"Jenny, ain't she fak'n' it to heart too much? Lenime give her a hint; it's just play-petin!"
Jenna shook her head snapping. "Don't worry about Nervy. She'll come out all right. Zack don't want her told until the show day, and that ain't long off. Bias!"
The circus coming to Caneyville had advertised a prize of $10 in gold to be given to the young woman not afraid and willing to be married on an elephant's back in their flag, which advertisement doubled and tripled the size of the attending crowd on the "show day."
Early that morning Zack Burden's two miles passed the Compton wagon, en route to Caneyville. Zack rode one mile, Magnolia Rouse the other, Eliza could not restrain a look of displeasure.
"Then two are the pair that's to be married on the elephant's back!" old Bias volunteered cheerfully. "Zack's done arranged with the show folks."
This news was the last straw. Eliza turned to her daughter, her face white with wrath.
"Nervy Compton, before I'd let everybody in the county see how lowdown House girl take myeller right my eyes, my Jump in Canary River"
Minerva smiled. "Their weddings won't discredit me, me, Zack's not enough to discredit me, me, he wanted to marry me and you wouldn't let him!"
At the close of the circus performance, with a bawdish on his back, was brought into the ring.
"Will the gentleman please wish to present himself?" the ringer mused called out.
Zack arose and took Magnolia's arm, but she pulled back, screeching. I afraid I would get close to the thing."
"Will the gentleman try to persuade another lady then? They're bound to have a wedding with the biggest courtement, but it was tragic to Zack. Zack looked about him. "I see one lady I know is not afraid of the jury but she's afraid of her man."
Elza sprang to her feet.
"If you mean Matrix, you shouldn't need me of objective! I've be concluded I'm perfectly agreeable to her marrying a young man as industrious and
Tears of triumph were in Eliza's eyes when, twenty minutes later, she ran off with a smile. "Where's your gold piece, Nery?" happy old Bliss whispered that evil tale. "Magnolia got that one," she whispered back, "but Few got another just like it the show gives govez Kick for what they called the *cotty fee*
GOOD POINTS IN AMERICANS
Mexican Recognizes Attributes He Believes Latins Might Copy to Their Advantage.
Let us recognize this: The poetry of the American character is shown in four devotions—to women, to children, to trees and to birds. These men, whom many people unjustly suppose to be rude; these men, who make millions; these men, who maintain the ralls through immense deserts; who build up formidable industries, have in their spirit these four "devotions, which honor them vastly and which not a few of us Latins would like to have for the better honor and embellishment of our common existence.
There are in compensation many children and flocks of birds. Children are the kings of the parks. Everything there is for them. They rule over all, and you may see them, as I did, in Rock Creek park (Washington), with their naked legs wading in the many small streams and shouting charmingly while splashing in the crystal of the water. Notwithstanding they are smaller than the children, the birds are little kings as well. Little kings that are respected not only in the air but on the ground. Sparrows I have found on the sidewalk among the hurrying chongs of people. Jumping and hopping about—Carlos Gonzales Pena, in Universal Illustrado, Mexico City.
To Remove Mildew
It is best to get at midnight stain right away before it has injured. First, try this mild treatment: Squirt its overnight in sour milk and then allow it to sit overnight. Pretend the treatment several times if necessary. If this does not remove them all, try lemon, moistening the lemon with lemon juice and allow it to sit overnight. Very persistent go to the draggest and ask for a few crystals of potassium permanganate. Dissolve one teaspoon in a pint of water and apply a little lemon juice to the drainer or a clean cork and allow it to remain in five minutes. Remove any pith stain from this by chemical treatment. If your ceramic care permanganate does not as a rule take out color, but try it first on an unexposed portion of the skirt.

Aunt Harriet's niece, Elise, turned

you, even if you are my favorite
niece." Aunt Harriet retorted. "Tell me the minute the gate clicks. Do you know what day, months of illness had not broken
Aunt Harriet's spirit. She left the flowers and devoted herself to the window."
"She announced."
Aunt Harriet drew a long breath, "I wish," she declared, "that Elvira Parkins never had had a mother! There, I've said it, and I feel better!" "Aunt Harriet!" Elvira cried, with a laugh that broke bounds in spite of her.
"I know, I suppose I ought to be ashamed, and maybe I shall be some day, but just this minute that seems to me the most relieving thing I ever said in my life. Elvira Parkins is a good woman. She wouldn't hurt the feelings of a fly, and she'd run her feet off doing kind things for people. I could stand the kindness, but what I can't stand is her sympathy."
"If I so much as mention a twinge in my little finger, she will draw down her face and lower her voice and say, 'I know—you can't tell me anything about it. My mother suffered that way for years.' I have discovered that Elvira's mother had an accident like mine and was hard of hearing like me and had a heart just like mine. Elvira saw me dodging a streak of sunlight for a minute, and she jumped for the shade and pulled it clear down and came back and putted my shoulder, murmuring, 'My mother had just such sensitive eyes. You must be very, very careful, Mother suffered so with hers the last of her life.'"
Aunt Harriet's mimicry was delightful. Elena was enjoying herself after the conversation. Elinna's conversation" she pleaded. "I'm ready to now望我 to be sympathetic again as long as I live. I will be happy with her plows, but her acres were twinkling.
"I not say that I'd advise you to go quite as far as that, Eileen." she returned. "I don't believe the fact that there's yourpathy and sympathy, and advise you to exercise a little care in choosing the kind you need." "Uzouth's Com
Growing Sugar Cane Under Paper.
A new and very odd method of growing sugar cane is proving highly useful. The rows of the little plants and hold up when the cane is beginning to sprout, yard-wide strips are laid legnitude over the rows of little plants and held up until the cane is strong enough to keep down and smother the starting weeds, but not to kill the stout and hardly young cane. The cane shoots have either forced themselves sufficiently to make little tent-like laboratories. Laboratories then pass along the rows and with long knives themselves sufficiently to make the shoots to come through. The liberated shoots at first are blanched white, but quickly turn green and yellow. Weeding is done with the shoots to come through. There is an increase of ten tons (about 28 per cent) in the yield of ome acre per half a hectare of sugar per acre is augmented by more than a ton.

"At Attention" Before God
Paying tribute to the services performed by the British Y. M. C. A. W. Gordon Spriggs, writing in Association Men, the organ of the American "Y," is reminded of the reply made by Field Marshal Sir George White to an inquiry addressed to him at the close of the three months' siege of Ladysmith, South Africa, in the Boer war. Sir George was asked to explain how he maintained his cheerfulness and upheld the spirit and morale of his weary troops amidst so much discomfort, depression and uncertainty. "Because," said the field marshal, "I stand at attention before God every morning so that I may receive my daily marching orders."

American Resident of Jerusalem

M. M. Winston First to Welcome Brit-

Although it is a year since Allenby's
victorious army entered Jerusalem,
and the greatest Christian shrines in
the world was wrested forever from
them, it is still the most striking episodes of all those that marked that entry has only recently been known.
The episode is in the sense of
special interest, since it came as
the elixus of perhaps the most picture-
sure of all the many services that have
been performed to and to humanity by, individual
Americans, from Gandr and Brand
Whitlock down, since the beginning of
For nearly three years, or from early in 1915 until the deliverance of Jerusalem in December, 1917, one of the most important organizations remained in unbliable ignorance as to what we had come to its "depart" in the Holy City. This or other organization, the Bible society, which like its great sister organization in the United States, exists for the purpose of distributing the Good Book anew to Christians in the world.
In February, 1915, or soon after Turkey threw in her lot with the central powers, the Bible society's depot was brought to Egypt with thousands of volumes, and to be abandoned hastily. The workers there were brought to Egypt on an American warship. From that day until quite recent gardening the fate of the depot or its contents. It was assumed that both had probably been destroyed by the Turks. But then came a letter from a British regiment to the Holy City. In it he wrote that the London Scottish, the first British regiment to enter the Holy City. In it he wrote that the London resident of Jerusalem, by name M. Whelan, came forward spontaneously after the abandonment of the Bible society. He then wrote that he arrived there and courteously "carried on" as its custodian.
"I may interest you to know," this officer wrote, "that as I entered Jerusalem, I heard from a quaint old American named Whelan, seventy years of age, who told me he represented the Bible society, and presented me with a beautiful copy of
Beyond the fact that M. M. Whelan is a National Irish citizen of the United States, and that he had been a member of the Irish armed forces before the war, little is known by the Bible society at present regarding the pictureque character to whom it owes so great a debt of gratitude. It is not known how much of the United States he comes. The society has, however, received a photograph of its venerable American benefactor, which shown him to be a truly patriarchal type.
Germany Has Lost Mexican Trade.
All the drinking glasses and most of the jewelry sold in the Salina Crus district of Mexico are of American origin. Germany is a port from Norton F. Brand, United States consul at Salina Crus. Prior to the war all the jewelry and glassware were imported from Germany. Germany is a port from Germany entirely from the Mexican markets and the activity of American business men has been so great that imports from Spain has been made
But Mr. Irund warns American manufacturers that the gobelis and tumblers they ship to Mexico are too small. The turtles are a tilt-tyle chameleon, which declares if American merchants do not send in larger glasses, their wavers will be driven from the field when European supplies are again available after the war. He urges upon American companies to stock the needs of the Mexican trade.

Need for More Console
The chairman of the shipping board has called the attention of congress and the people to the need of enlarging our compulsary service abroad, in order to increase the number of ships that marine will be released for use in foreign trade. Mr. Hurley tells us, the observers in the International States will have 20,000,000 tons of merchant shipping by the end of 1920, and that as fast as these ships can be freed from military work they will be able to work for the economy and would be entirely inadequate to handle this enlarged business. There are not enough of them, their staffs are too small and pay are bandaged by industry and are underarmed and by antiguided regulations. Even now the burden of work, especially in the way of inquiries to be annotated, is being imposed and underarmed force. Mr. Hurley therefore pleads that immediate steps be taken to remedy the situation. "We need more consults and larger numbers of ships that do not provide them today and prepare for the great growth in our merchant marine and trade after the war. I fear that we shall suffer a serious break

"Look here," said the city editor to the cub reporter, "you should write everything as briefly as possible. Instead of saying the middle-aged head-bred performer in the hired agreement, you should say it mightly provide the harmony at one of our leading temples of mith, seized his trunbone firstly in his hand, placed his feverly teeth to the mouth, and then to the tongue, tone like the swelling of a foot, so on the main street of Inferno—now shorten that up."
