THE RELATION OF THE NEGRO TO THE SELECTIVE DRAFT PROVOST MARSHAL GENERAL'S REPORT TO SECRETARY OF WAR TELLS AUTHORITATIVELY OF THE PATRIOTISM, VALOR AND CHEERFUL SERVICE OF COLORED AMERICANS.

THE RELE PROVOST MARSHAL REPORT TO TELLS AUTHORITATIVELY OF CHEERFUL SERVICE OF LABORS OF SPECIAL ASSIS Washington, D. C. March 13, 1919. The following extract from the原始文件 of the Washington March 13, 1919, was the General of the United States army to the Secretary of War, gives a high-ly interesting and informing story by the page of the 1919疏散疏散疏散疏散疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏疏 Fears Groundless "How groundless such fears, how ill considered such doubts, may be seen from the statistical record of the race," he said. His race furnished its quotes, and uncomplainingly, yes, cheerfully. History indeed, was unable to handle the challenge of the war, for the reason that opportunities for allimentation were not opened to him to the same extent as to others. He was freed from the records to show that he was filled with the same feeling of patriotism, the same martial spirit, and the same citizen in the cause for world freedom. "As a general rule, he was fair in his dealings with the assistance of white employers, he was Poro-College Entertains 369th Inf. Replacement Soldiers. Special to the Dallas Express. St. Louis, Mo., March 12—The "PORO" College Co., of which Mr. Peters opened their College to the Replacement Soldiers of the 389th Infantry, last Saturday, and made them a part of the route to Camp Funston to be mustered out of service, passed through the city and having a day to re-verify the route, and College by the Rev. Shelton Parr of the Y. M. C. A. the "boys" who were the Crox de Guerre. In the party were Corporals Bert Watt Hunter, William Glover, Grover Gillespie, F. W. Cooper, J. W. Essex, Len Niebler and Flummer Wal- For an hour they played pool in the private pool room of Mr. Malone's and at noon were escorted to the main auditorium where a splendid program was rendered by the "PORO" College girls. Miss May B. Thomas sang "The Rose of No Man's Land" sweetly and charmingly, and the soldiers were highly elated over the rendition. Misses Keith and Moore sang "Somebody Here Bears a Weary Load" in a pleasing and delightful manner. The whole College sang as the Soldiers marched in "The Old Flag Never Touched the Ground Boys." It was an interesting occasion. Cary B. Lewis of the Chicago Defender who was here on a visit prestured at the meeting and introduced an old soldier. Conrad G. W. Edward who told the boys of his experience during the sixties. Pred W. Cooper, Kansas City, and Len Richie, Atchinson, Kansas, who wore citation badges awarded by the French Government delivered addresses. They related in detail the bravery, heroism, during and courage The Dallas Express able to present fairly such claims for deferment or discharge as he may have had, for the consideration of the various draft boards. In consequence, there appears to have been no racial discrimination made in the determination of his claims. Indeed, the proportion to claims granted to claims filed by members of the Negro race compare favorably with the proportion of the claims granted to members of the white race. “That the men of the Colored race were as ready to serve as their white neighbors is amply proved by the reports from the local boards. A Pennsylvania board, remarking upon the fact that the Colored registrants to be inducted into the state by the action of one registrant, who upon learning that his employer had had him placed upon the Emergency Fleet list, quite his job. Another registrant, who was believed by the board to be above draft age, insisted that he was not, and, in stating that he was not married, explained that he “wanted only one war at a time.” “The following description from Oklahoma and Arkansas boards are typical, the first serving to perpetuate one of the best epigrams of the war. Equal Consideration. “We tried to treat the Negroes with exactly the same consideration as was shown the whites. We had the same speakers to address them. The Ro-tart was present, there was with small talk flags, and did not whiteen the band turned out to escort them to the train. And the Negroes went to camp with as cheerful a spirit as did the white men. One of them when asked if he were going to France, said, “No, sir, I see not swine to France. I see swine through France.” "In dealing with the Negroes, the southern boards gained a richness of experience that is without parallel. No other class of citizens was more loyal to the Government, or more ready to answer the country's call. The only blot upon their military record was the great number of de-linquents among the more ignorant; but in the majority of cases this was traced to an ignorance of the regulations, or he withholding of mail by the landlord (often himself an aristocratic slacker) in order to retain the man's labor." "On October 1, 1917, in order that there might be no question of full protection of the rights of the Negro, and that thorough examination might be made into all matters affecting their relation to the war, and its many agencies, there was announced the appointment of Emmett J. Scott as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War. Having been for 18 years confidential Secretary to the Late Booker T. Washington, and being at the time of his appointment Secretary of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute for Negroes, he was" (Continued on page 4) of the 369th Infantry of the "boys" of their recruitment went "over the top and incidentally some of them were killed," the teachers. Tears came to the eyes of the young women who neared how their parents were treated, but the soldiers said "The Flag never touched the ground." Following the addresses, Mr. Searborough was welcome, threw the building open to them for the afternoon. The soldiers are surprised when they were escorted into the building where a feast, a real old fashioned dinner was prepared for them. They received a letter yesterday from Prof. W. S. Searborough of Wilberforce University, thanking them for the $1,000 gift they received for their Daughters Day at the school. The Mauses are planning to establish a branch at Chicago, and Atlanta, Ga. and Atlanta will hold the event in the Eau for a larger business. AMONG THE POEMS WRITTEN IN FRANCE. The following was recently received from an over sea friend who is most done traveling. "The Republican Party Is The Ship, All Else Is The Sea."—Fred Douglas. NEGRO MIGRATION TO NORTH TOTALS 350,000 IN 1916 AND 1917 Lack of Labor in the North and General Dissatisfaction with Conditions in South were Principal Causes. About half the migrants, according one investigator, went from the town of Alabama which had suffered most were that the counties in Black Belt of Alabama which had suffered most were most poverty among the Northeast. The shortage of labor was most acute among the landowners who made no effort to provide for their substance. One of the promising movements to improve the Colored persons in the South and thus remove causes of the migration appear to be the "Community Concern Co., Mississippi." The feature of this plan is a community organization initiative to improve the employment and agriculturist, and prominent Colored men, in each county. Complementing this effort, the body to consider special subjects for example, there is a committee on labor supply, a type of organization working to increase the common interest of the races in community development, and in programs in ways designed to promote harmony prosperity and good will. As adjuncts to Chambers of Commerce are also highly recommended, as means of bringing together desirable Negro leaders in planters. Frequent and confidential conference upon community problems is also highly recommended, as local leaders of the races are urged as important measures toward betterment. Better housing is recommended, both for North and South. The means of better surroundings in the South has come to be genetically recognized. Airtreatment, opportunity to labor, sanitary living conditions, and labor, assurance of even handed justice in the courts, good educational facilities, sanitary living conditions, and by the Southern University Commission on Race Relations as a means of improving the A summary of the investigation has been published in bulletin entries "Negro Migration in 1316-1317" and now has available for distribution. NEGROES OF TEXAS ASSURED OF BETTER RAILROAD ACCOMMODATIONS. President M. W. D. Wogen, Wiley University, Marshall, Texas, and Dr. J. R. Shepard, a leading physician of Marshall, Texas, went to Washington, where he met the president of Equal Rights Association of Texas to place in the hands of the Director or General of Railroads a petition to be furnished Colored people on railroads operating in Texas. The gentlemen were given a respectful hearing and the petition left sought but be granted. The sympathetic attitude of the Railroad Administration on all matters touched the petition was highly gratifying. DALLAS, TEXAS. SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1919. DALLAS TEACHERS RANK IN CLASS A1 Primary Teachers Who Make Record: Mrs. Chase Harris, Mrs. M. T. Grove, Mrs. F. Chester Rutherford, Mrs. M. E. Hallum and Mrs. Lula Mason. When truth shall get a hearing; when justice shall be enthroned in the hearts and minds of the Nation; when the light of the seven golden candle sticks shall illuminate the upper sky of fairness and reason, then, and not until then, will the true worth of the American black woman be seen and appreciated. It was she who has stood side by side with her husband in every class of work whether at home, in the field of cotton, or in the rice swamp, or amidst the waving grain, she has never deserted her post. As a home maker, or a church builder, her mind has ever been afire in her breast that burns with that ferver and unabated zeal till the home stood forth, the church with its steeple pointing heavenward chimed with the sweetest music in praise and songs to our Father. It is she who ever gives inspiration and cheer to the men who keep their faces to the rising sun of hope, looking for that better time and for that light of joy and fruition that is about to burn. She has ever been anxious that her children should be the pride of the school, and that pride that animates and encourages to manhood and to those higher qualities so essential in the make up of a child. She has to reach the goal of final success. Again her efforts have not been idle in the work along other lines. She has been frugal as well as in-dustrious, she has been alert along educational lines, often through self-denial, bearing her burden for the education of her children. No class of work has been too mental for her when she has thought of the requirements of her sons and her daughters whom she wish to be accomplished and refined, honest and up-right. She has been trustworthy in the school room as elsewhere. Her genial influence has been like the rays of the morning sun dispersing the darkness of the night and at the same time bringing good cheer to all. All classes of our women have been straight-forward as a general thing whatever their calling or profession. Whether as a house maid, or as seamstress, a nurse, or a governess, the same fidelity of purpose has written itself in the result that merits the well done approval. When the history of the Dallas city schools is written, the names of the first grade teachers, will occupy a page entwined with an emblem of ever-green around it as a token of the true devotion of these faithful teachers who have served for more than a score of years giving instructions to the children coming fresh from the arms of their mothers to be taught the first fundamentals of school. Mrs. Chaisle-Harris is the oldest primary teacher by service. It was she who aided in the formation of the first class that marked the day of the beginning of the Colored High School. She is what we may call a charter member. She saw the beginning, and was instrumental in giving encouragement to the girls and the school. Her teaching, in the search of better teaching, is a broader manhood and usefulness. It was her voice that bade them God speed in their laudible ambition. Mrs. Harris, before coming to Texas, taught in the high school in her home town, and as she had done in high school work there, she was in position to advise the young people of Dallas in those early days when advice and encouragement were so necessary to those who were concerned with the high school. Her teaching, achievements. Mrs. Chaisle-Harris, the first her vision, take in the present time, and the present Dallas modern high school course for the members of her people. Neither is this all. She has not neglected the education of her daughter, the accomplished Fredie Chalse, who holds a diploma from the college course of Howard University and a teacher's certificate good throughout the United States. Her daughter is now teacher in the High School, and her mother helped to establish over a score of years ago. We never can tell what great things a little beginning may produce. But there are others whom we need to mention. The following first grade teachers have each served over a score of years: Mrs. Chaisle-Harris, Mrs. T. Grove, Mrs. Lula Mason, Mrs. F. Chester, Rutherford and Mrs. M. E. Hall. These teachers, who have those teachers whose combined services make one hundred years in our city. One hundred years of time stinted and unrelenting service to the young, service that must be productive of much good. Mrs. Grove is a graduate of Tuskegee and as such seems to have imbuited the spirit of the sage of Tuskegee for she has taken the pain and the expense to educate her daughter along the lines of both the academic and industrial including domestic art and domestic science. Her daughter, Miss Lucile Williams, is now the directress of the domestic science in the Dallas Colored High School, Mrs. Grove has done good and efficient work that marks the pupils in all grades and classes even in the high school. We wish to congratulate a mother who takes the time to educate her children and then give them a fair start in life. We know the nation by the virtue and disposition of its women. The family is measured by the action toward their children in the home life, in the training and in this age, we no longer take the grown-up person as we find him, but back of his growth, we seek his history and his early habits and if these have formulated themselves into what is called good characteristics, we call him a man. The oak is bound up in the little acorn, the mighty age is wrapped up in the tiny moments, the huge mountain is no greater than the grains of sand of which it is composed, and the mighty ocean is only the little drops of water that lie back of its restless and ever heaving surface. So it is with the habits that form what we are pleased to call character. Mrs. Lula Mason has done a commendable work in the Dallas city school as a first grade teacher. Many of her students are first grades are persons having college education and persons of dislike to her. Her kindness deserves special mention. She has a typical family, two sons and a daughter. These children have been sent to college education, and the sons are still in the process of training, while the daughter, Miss Ruth Mason, has been sent to college education, graduating with distinction, and has been accorded the position of principal's assistant. Mrs. Mason has a sweep of vision that urged them to prepare for the next generation, what the next generation will bring forth if the mothers continue to educate their sons and daughters. Are we to solve what is called the (Continued from p. 4). FOLLOWING THE WHITE MAN'S EXAMPLE Special From Houston Says Wrecked Trains to Get "Spilled" Money. Boys Got Idea From Picture Shows. Houston, Texas, March 10.—Details of how a Sunset limited train was scheduled in order to obtain money in the wreck, and the gangsters in the wreck, of the derailing of a train, the struggling of coaches left on side tracks of brass trimming and the theft of brass yardas and abode in Houston were disclosed today by the confessions of four Negro boys. In 11 years of training, they were admitted to the Fifth Adept. The ideas of wrecking the train, the boys said, was suggested by the coaches, and how trains were wrecked, and they thought that in the wreck "some money might spill out volf kessels pockets" because they said they did not think about whether the passengers would be killed or injured, and was a partner in admitted having placed a bolt on the track which derailed the engine and threw it on its side on the right of the track. The coaches remained a partner in the transaction and remained in riding with the one boy, who was another boy, also 11, and his brother, 10 years of age, became frightened by the train approached away. A bolt 8.14 inches, with a nut and a wrench, was removed from the other and badly ruined, titied by the two boys as being the one they placed on the track which caused the wreck. They did of just how the engine wheels struck the square nut on the rail, and, when the engine wheels struck the square nut, the coaches jumped the truck, the coaches remained intact.

Local Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People went on record reverting to the Oklahoman Cliff by the adoption of a resolution authorizing the President of the Oklahoman Cliff against the exhibition of the "Birth of a Nation," billed to appear in Dallas. President A. S. Well in conference with Mayor Lawther, showed causes why the protest entered by the A. S.

Washington, March 13.—With the abandonment by the Republican senators of their filibuster against the victory loan bill, which passed the Senate at the end of a session, having until daylight this morning, President Wilson has won a victory over the opponents of the League of Nations, who were trying to create a situation that would make an extra session necessary. The contest over the league will now be taken before the people. Opponents of the league and American supporters of it are perfecting arrangements for the nation-wide speech-making campaign which will be opened in New York next Tuesday night, when Wilson and William H. Taft will jointly address a big meeting in favor of the league. Later in the week Senator Borah, Republican, of Idaho, and Senator Reed, Democrat of Missouri, will start the ball rolling for the opposition by speaking in New York. Taft's advocacy of the league and his willingness to join President Wilson on the same public platform in the campaign for its ratification have made such an appeal to the Republicans, not only possible but the logical thing for the Democrats to do. The Republicans say that it will only be necessary to present the people with the same people to ensure an overwhelming demand for the defeat of the league. They assert that the people have "gathering generalities" of "gathering generalities" of Wilson and his promise of world peace as a result of the operations of the war. USA PRICE FIVE CENTS.

Plans will be perfected in launching the great membership drive to be NEGRO SOLDIER'S HAVE TOO MUCH NERVE FOR LIEUTEMANT New York—Col William Hayward, who commanded the 36th infantry (Negro) in France told these two stories of his men after their great parade in this city: “I cannot say too much of the fight the Old Fifteenth put up during these four days. And I would not attempt to tell the scores of instances of individual heroism which they displayed then, and had displayed previously. “Everyone has heard, of course, of the exploit of Henry Johnson, who really first put the regiment on the map, that time he did up half a company of bochees with his comrade, New York, who was wounded early in the game. Henry was one of our star performers as New York realized when it saw him last week riding alone in an automobile with his medals and flowers. New York decided that Henry wasn't one of those modest heroes. And he isn't. “Not long after Henry had got the Croix for his killing of four and wounding of a score or more of Germans, he was walking about one night with his medal pinned to his cap, so everyone could see it. A new white lieutenant approached him and said: “What do you mean by that violation of the regulations? Take that medal off your cap at once.” “Henry saluted politely and said: I guess you don't know, sir, who I am.” “No, I don't! Who the hell are you? Take that thing off.” “Why, I—Iso Hen-nor-y Johnson!” said the medalwearer. And (without removing the Croix) he saluted again and did in about face, leaving the lieutenant speechless. "Then, there was the time a German raiding party captured one of our lieutenants and four privates back in August in th Champagne, and was carrying them off when a lone Colored man Sargt. William Butler, one of those "indoor chauffeur's" or elevator men, covered them from a shell hole. He calmly spoke to the lieutenant and the other lieutenant spoke back to him. Then the lieutenant signalled to the four other prisoners to make a run away from the German. As they started to flee Butler, all. "Look out, you Bush Germans. Here we come!" and he let go with his pistol. He killed one boche officer and four privates and our men escaped back to our position. Later we captured the German officer who had been in charge of this raiding party and also got his written report. In this he had said—the lying "soun-drel—that he had been obliged to let his prisoners go because he was attacked by an overwhelming number of blutulige scawartzmaenner." This overwhelming number consisted of Elevator Operator Bill Butler alone. Negro Shipbuilders Prove Black Man's Worth in Industry. By Homer L. Ferguson. President Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. Hampton, Va. March 12—There are 4,500 Colored men working in the Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company. This is the largest force of skilled Colored men and the highest paid group of Colored men working in the industry. The shipbuilding plant is a memorial to Collins P. Huntington, who showed himself a friend to Emmington Institute and the Colored people. The shipyard is Newport Nowa, a position in Mr. Emmington's belief in the Colored man an so industrial worker—a man who would be successful. Mr. Huntington. (Continued from page 4.)

I, not only approve it, but I wish to commend the idea as being most filting to the proposed program. It was not an insignificant part and useful work on the anniversary of the birth of the man who first conceived the plan to thus benefiting his fellowmen is an evidence of our appreciation and understanding which we have made to the manifested, again as the late Dr. Booker T. Washington said in the 1915 call, his last one, for observance of National Negro Health Week. With the health of the university to reduce the high death rate it will be impossible for us to have permanent success in business, in getting property, in acquiring education, or to show other evidences of pro-lawism, but not to have all else falls. We must reduce our high death-rate; dethronne disease, and enthrome health and long life. We may differ on other subjects, but there is no room for difference here. We make a strong, long-united pull to either The Executive Committee of the National Negro Business League in organizing, organizing, and the following, the League in observing National Health Week: Daily and weekly newspapers.

SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1919. LYNCHING MUST GO. The great American pastime lyrche, like that great American lyrche, is to go to it. It is impossible in this connection and at this writing to disconnect from the dedication to justice. The run: "Truth crumb to earth The eternal years of God are here; But error wounded writes with And dies amid mist her worshipers." And so, it is defined that right now both of our brothers in former time enjoyed the approval of both pupil and press, move or right down here where he met the warlord, today can be counted some of its bitter opponents. In India, the warlord is the South, Mila has been introduced, having for their purpose the task of righting here in Texas, the San Antonio Express, a white daily newspaper, prosecuting the men who stain their hands with blood in lychee ovies; right here in Dallas, the great Morrison, prosecuting the awful crime against men and government in tomen that rink like Under the caption, Combating The Lynch-habit Menace, it says in its issue of March 11, 1919: The proposal to amend the constitution so that any one who had participated in a lycing would be disqualified for voting or holding office, and also the proposal to amend the path of office so that we elected to office would be required to swear that he had not participated in a lycing seen to have originated with the San Antonio Express. The Express has taken an indisputable leadership in the effort to rid Texas of the disgrace and moral injury which is done to it by the lyncha's. Indeed, no institution in the country has shown so much energy and determination in combating this growing evil and menace. Among other things, it has set aside $100,000 as a fund out of which to pay the arrest and conviction of men who engage in lycing. That action testifies to a high, but not to an undue sense of the gravity of the lyncha's habit, and the Express has earned the gratitude of every law-abiding and order-loving clit. Even though what it has done should immediately have perceptible effect, it must make for the generation of a larger and more robust feeling of popular healthy. It is foundational work, and upon it a substantial accomplishment can be built. Let us hope that the language of News that the News can be understood and awakened. This done and lynching disappear like mist before the ri PRESIDENT™ FORTUNES. The state of $200,000 left by Thecore Roosevelt is a very moderate fortune by New York states, but for a percent one of unusual size. It ran's Roosevelt, funded, as probably the country's richest chief executive since Wash.Nortos, and the fact has a suggestive interest. Many of the people of the public has become a multi-million ironia. The state has ever been President of the world's greatest and richest Republic, and this, notwithstanding, the altered scale of personal wealth under which the comparative magnification of the accumulation of $1,000,000 has been described. The Roosevelt's last fortune was different, a major being mainly an inherited fortune. Its possessor may have added to it in his lifetime, but, as in the case of other President's, most of his persons' earnings in a period of forty years of public life were absorbed in the support of his family. No other President has had any such advantage of renumerative sub-fifty as Roosevelt, and besides his salary from official positions, his income from his books and from editorial work must have been large. Yet it is a fair inference that if these had been the whole source of his support, as the people of the world are not the most important, as a梯田 of their predecessor in the White House. This has been the common financial fate of Presidents, and the examples of Roosevelt probably merely prove the rule that the predictive is any logical proportion to its externality. To much of us as believe that money and money getting are the true lads in human existence, and who become a take's success by the dollars which he ever call his own, we commend the above editorial from the New York World. Solomon told: With all the getting, get understand. THE MISSION OF THE PEACE MAKER. The peace-makers who are bent upon disarming Germany and making her impotent as a war-making factor in the world, are displaying commemorable well in that laudable enterprise. They must, however, not forget while humbling the German Empire, to destroy the cause of wars, for as long as there is cause there must be effect. Crying peace, peace, has never secured it, nor will it ever. Unless the "Powers" can enter into an agreement for peace, which justice as its foundation stone, there can be no peace. The peace-makers must remember in the settlement of the vexed questions with which they have to do, "that no question was ever settled till it was settled right." The world may be ready to talk peace. It may be ready to hear peace talk, but it is not ready to have peace. It will not be ready until the weak every where are accorded their just dues by the strong, until everywhere the mighty men will come to know that their strength is in the masses and that all power is resident in the people. True, we are coming to this way of thinking, and whatever distance we may have to travel to roam this standard is the exact distance the world must travel to secure world peace.

The editor of the Dallas Express with the full endorsement of the state legislature, Mr. Brennan, spending the greater amount of his time traveling about the state or organizing the league is a combination of men and women living in any community, in either honest labor, business or professional life, having for its purpose understanding, whereby the best interests of the people in general and of the state are best promoted. The League should have a president, one or more vice-presidents, a executive committee. It is plain from the above description that the community in the state should have such an organization. It is unnecessary to say that the people of the other race are organized and the result is seen in the industrial and financial world. There are several local organizations meet this year through their chosen representative at Curney, Texas, on the industrial and financial world, awaits those who attend. Every community should befit itself to serve. TURN THE RACE LOOSE. Just as soon as one end of the Colored race ceases to hold the other end of the race, we begin to ahead. As much fault as we find of the white people at their hacking, we find that the number 1, is Colored man number 2. If there is any one to blame for the attack, it is the white shores, restaurants, woodyards, milleries, and other Colored enterprises. To be personal; if nobody had opposed the Dallas Express except Mr. White, we would daily and would invoices for a million dollar. Colored man, turn to the truth. NEEDED INFORMATION. What is meant by "boudhoush" in reference to United States soldiers?—I'll stick to the simple answer. Before this war the term was strictly applied to privates in the in-ground forces of the American Expeditionary Force and Siprocs, the overseeing newspaper of the American Expeditionary Force, as a nickname for any American soldier, high or low, regardless of the rank. The term is sometimes some dispute as to the origin of the term, but it is thought to have had an origin in the infantry which infantrymen used to wear, which resemble a kind of dumpling dish. WILSON BACK TO EUROPE. President Wilson mailed on a second voyage to France, March 6. He said he would not be heard. He said when he left, "I will call on you." He said of the Nations, "one good thing, one bad thing." Drs. Munchus and Richie Accept Agency For World Wonder Oil and Gas Campany. Mr. J. J.

The next year, it was possible to in the heart of Burk Burnett, Texas. He has just returned to their main office in Kansas City, Mo. He has already completed the arrangements with the dredging firm. The first ground in Burk Burnett, and the drilling is expected to begin in a very few days as soon as enough money is raised. Mr. Allen expected to go to the whole home to work with very important business has eclave, him back to their main office in Kansas City. Just before leaving for Kansas City, he spent two days in theழுgetown. The first time he sold stock to some of the leading companies and women of that city among whom was Dr. C. S. Diggs, who has also accepted a place on the advisory board of the Company. He is so appointed to the work of Mr. Mingen and Riche, who also bought stock in the Company and will use their influence together to buy stock in this, the greatest exclave of the Oil Company. Every race loving Negro should buy some of this stock and help share the honors of building it, such as a electric business concern and also a good service. The first time he is to be derived therefrom. Mr. Allen would like to employ the service of other hunting young men and women in Texas, and would update that they would like to be made up of their own public. The same office will be in theிரs.

OLD REGULAR FIXDS BAPTIST AGAINST BAPTIST AND READS A LECTURE TO DR. E. C. MORRIS—DECLINE TO FIGHT FOR REASONS—CITY ELECTION CITED—JIM CROW HEADQUARTERS OPEN TW O SERVICE FLAGS—ONE ON FRONT DOOR FOR WHITES—ONE ON KITCHEN DOOR FOR COLORED HELL UNCAPPED—NEW WAY TO REASON—NEITHER ANARCHICIST NOR INFIDEL—CHURCH ORGANIZATION —“PHYSICIAN HEAL THYSELF—DON'T LAUGH.” Staff Correspondence. Dallas, Texas, March 11, 1919. I have been here over a week in the vain attempt to rest and laying upon myself the important task of mapping out a new trail. At the first, I have made a dismal failure, for I have been either calling or called upon every day and night since I hit the town. The church has claimed my first attention and right well it has done so. I have had the sacrament offered me and also the gospel. I need the latter, but did not take the former for reasons. Baptist Against Baptist. Then there was another phase of church life which claimed a bit of his Baptistist Against Baptist. Some time ago, the Dr. Rev. E. C. K. gave a speech on the go Baptist Convention, which offered from and parted company with Rev. R. H. Boyd appointed me to the pastor of the Baptist Convention. The National Baptist, Voice, the organ of the Morris faction, in a recent editorial, sets forth the doctrines of the Baptist. AN INCUMBENT DUTY. An incumbent duty rests its entire weight upon every thoroughly interested and virile leader affiliating with the National Baptist Convention of the denomination, to come out publicly and strengthen the cause of the denomination by letting all men know that he stands for the rights and supremacy of the denomination. Silence, lukewarmness or vacilation inspires greater opposition on the part of the attempting despollers of the peace and unity of the denomination. Regnant men through all times have spoken out for the cause they espoused; and why does not every Baptist leader do that now, follow out that age-old exhibition of conviction and manly courage? Individualism's fanatics and worshippers on the "unincorporated" side of the "incorporated board" are yelping out in their madness of homage like thunderous Stentors of sin for a one man domination of the denomination. Well, this one thing we put down here as a matter of everlasting records, many leaders have been asked and appealed to for illuminating articles or editorial contributions. And those who have not received such a letter, requesting an article, or articles you have leader, might later or layman, are here respectfully requested to furnish The Voice with your wisdom for the benefit of the denomination. Critics there are and will be, but this plugs the mouth of the leader who holds his speech now in order to break his silence after while with criticism. The nominative wants its sons and daughters to speak out in its defense, when speaking means something, and not after terrible inroads have been made by violet in-vaders of its time-bonored and admitted rights and sovereignty. The Voice is not going to fail, for it belongs to the denomination and the nominative is not going to fail. What do my chance, the denomination, it is going to fail. Whatever may chance, the denomination is going to demand a fighting Voice until the "incorporated-board-control" invade has been driven from the sacred terrestrial realm of denominational control. Following this instruction, the Voice then gives the names below as the list of the men to engage in the operations. THE PEOPLE MUST RULE. Information Campaign Committee as Announced by President of National Baptist Convention. At the meeting of the Peace Commission, representing the National Baptist Convention, held at Nashville, the chairman of the committee ceded that a campaign committee be appointed, with the undersigned as chairman, and also that the chairman was authorized to name his aides and answer them through the Natoal. baptist committee.

J. E. C. MORRIS. We responsibly submit the above to wherever submit. to whoever cares to read it. Speaking for myself (W. M. E. Kirkman) my knowledge or consent. The first initiation I had had that I was to be one of the men to renew and continue the mission, a necessity a fortnight ago, when a baptist brother showed me the National Dr. Morris, thought that when Dr. Morris had taken him, he took the matter between them and Dr. Boyd into the courts of the nation, and the ration, that they would abide the decision of the courts. The fact that the man who placed it there is good and sufficient reason, who the men who placed it there should not interfere, nor seek to remove it from the nation, is in the act of reaching a decision. Again, the men who worked to organise a propaganda for or against the matters in litigation, because the propaganda will have the effect of a fortnight. These are the main reasons as to why agitation at this time would be unwise and unjust. As for my part, leaving all of the reasons above stated out of the consideration, I decline to engage in the enterprise as outlined by the National Baptist Voice, and likewise decite to serve on the commission bearing the signatory of so illustrious a Baptist in the view Dr. Morse, I believe that the brethren of the Morrini favor the question at issue into the courts of the country. I believe the only thing to do now is to possess their souls that decision. And by the way, I want it distinctly understood that I am a Baptist in good and regular standing; and above all a Christian, baptized in running water, one who never compromises the faith; but I refuse to do so in any tongue or pen to settle a matter which is not the man knows cannot be settled except in a court of law. There is no question of polity or doctrine in dispute between the two contending Baptist factions. When the doctrines are envuelved I will be found among the bunch who believes in "One Lord, One Faith, One Baptist." As long as property rights constitute the bone of contention, I shall stand for conference and arbitration in the range of course. This is the same thing I am among those who would place our race before the courts of the country. Nufred. The City Election. The city people are marching into hostile camps according to their constituents. The content is over the mayor and commissioners. All the candidates are registered and who are elected will be white. The people who are there approximately 1,890 qualified Colored voters out of a population of some 200,000 Colored people. The people who have has established a jim-crow department with Lawson, Amonson S. and C. Johnson. Elections to come the Colored people will qualify so that they can Say what you will, the Colored man will be a helpless man as long as he is a vicious man, in the which, the Colored voter will qualify and accept leadership, that day has also come, when he will cease football to the politician and the community in which he lives. Service Flag on Kitchen Door For Colored Soldier Torn Down. There is published somewhere in county a paper known as the January 1919 issue, which is 919 issue it contained the following which will row: "warrant of interest to their employer." "No Place for a Service Flag." My son enlifted early in the war. When he left home we equipped him with a rifle and he came home him away as cheerfully as possible. By and by, under the selective service who had grown up in our house, was called up of the army. Whename he joined of the army his pера, providing for his in-armour, would send back home, there was no relatives to whom the papers could be made, consented to do anything, until he should return. We also equipped him with comfort. Just before leaving this Colored boy thank you for all these things you have done and are you going home, insurance, and I hope to come back home after a service up for Marie Frank. I was wandering who would hang in a service flag for you" and when he went away I put a service flag on me, and then back on a furrow and just before he gathered out through the door, when he saw the fg she said, "Mother, The is the Colored boy service flag." My son looked at the flag and the backpack, took the book from the back door, walked to the front of the building, took the book from the comic book, sold the book, a service flag for the United States soldiers is not to be being in the building. I'm convinced that after the war the white soldiers and the black soldiers were the program of setting the question for us, and now possible for us to understand. Many persons who read this will see in it the undoing of the preduces—which today constitute the greatest issue before the American people. But if they should go to South Carolina, or any where else in the Old South, they would find that 999 white men out of every 1,000, would do the same thing this white woman did, and about one white soldier in a thousand would do the same thing this white soldier did. He will find in addition that more energy is being wasted today in the United States to institute and maintain schemes of racial separation than ever before in the history of the country. There are no cars, separate streets cars, separate drinking stations, separate urinals, separate churches, separate schools, separate seats in courthouses, separate goods in stores, governmental separation and in fact separation and racial jim-crow, have come to be the order of the day, with the result that more hell rankies in the breasts of white men against blackmen, blackmen against white men, than was ever seen before in America. Fans and the primaries and synopsis of a variety of civilized and diplomats, ceivers, by the use of pretty phrases and soft words; say otherwise, but he who doubts my words can try and find out if they be true. There is a remedy, but it is not to be found among white men. New Reasoning. I ran across W. Roser, a German, who is very friendly in his disposition. I asked him if he attended school to which question he replied, "No." He told a good man n' no need to go to church or fur de bad," told him to stick to that foolish idea and that he was in his goul. he as a martin in for his goul. No Anarchist. No Infidel. Well, up till now with all the failures of the race before me, I must congratulate, the American man who not yet produced a man brazen enough to be an anarchist, nor is foolish enough to an infidel. No such hope is for us. Church Organization. I see most of the churches have plethora of young folk organization, and they are able to develop those who take membership, and incidentally to help the youth to develop their ability proportion will not be overborne by the incidentality portion of the church. The needs of the young to exist, the youth needs the church that they may exist. "Physician Heal Thyself." About a year ago when German aggression had its hand at the United States, the allied world, The New York World said: "If there are any who think that the American Nebra, the place to show it is on the battlefield". Although the war is over, the enemy has also rearranged it might be rendered: there are any who think that the American Nebra is the way to show it in their lives Today wherever the Colored American goes in this country he find the white man trying to show him how to kill him with bad legislation. Almost every section of the country is disgusted with jim-crow signs. Even in Washington City, the capital of the United States, this excerpt, this color scheme of dammation with brazen effrontery stalks about in broad day light and there is with backhue to declare that character and not color marks Only the other day at Texrkana or a few miles out on a train operated by the federal government was soldier was returning from the Western Front where he had been almost mortally wounded fighting the battles of his country. His home was Tyler, Texas. He was a chocolate brown. A white lieutenant was his caretaker. He had ridden under army instruction in a sleeper. When the train reached Imperial Texas, objection was made by some white people to his further journey in the sleeper. This wounded hero who had poured out his life blood to protect America, was not welcome to ride in comfort to Tyler, his final resting place. And when it seemed that he was to be removed by force if necessary, the white lieutenant found his manhood and with the bearing and daring which always characterize the patriotic soldier, told the objections that his suffering charge should not be removed except over his (the lieutenant) dead body. This had its effect and the upholsters of "white supremacy" stood aside. The wounded hero and his gallant protector had won. The enemies of America do not all live in Germany. They did not all plot the treason which would place men spurred and bayonetted in the armies of the invader. Whoever sulies the honor of the flag and defies its protection whether at home or elsewhere is an enemy to this government and should be so regarded. Today Mr. Wilson is in Europe, teaching the nations of the world the glory and goodness of a Democracy of which man has dreamed in all the centuries and it is a bleeding pity, to say, that in his own country, he does not practice the doctrine of which he is such a wonderful preacher.

Mrs. Lula Mason is a graduate of the Cortland schools, N. Y. Mrs. F. Chester Rutherford has been a quiet unassuming teacher, handling the primary grades with method and fore thought in the preparation of her work. She too, hails from Georgia, coming to our city from a distinguished section. Her special forte as we recall is that she knows how to reach the child, to have it employ both hand and mind deftly in the work that it has to do. We have seen work done in her classes with raffa strings and needles that none except an adapt could arrange. Her whole soul seems wrapped up in her classes, which are kept busy all the time working with a purpose in view. Mrs. Rutherford takes a special course in the University of Chicago fitting herself for the work of her grades, which adds to her efficiency along the lines of further usefulness. Mrs. M. E. Hallum is a teacher who working at the very beginning was a complete work that speaks for it, self among the pupils which she has been told to do. Her work is very important, when we were instructor and felt much encouraged to work harder in the work of the school. It was a teacher, is it the quiet person who get results in the methods of the teacher? It was a teacher of teacher, was no order? What is teaching any way? Is a teacher an artist or a teacher? It is the only of the quality on this wise: "Owing to the ability of the person doing the teacher, when he is in school, he is an artist or a scientist." Mrs. Hallum's graduate of the city schools of Detroit, Michigan. She also took a course in the school of the school of the celebrated Parker school Chicago. She like Mrs. Rutherford is descended from great family tree of proposed young children and is now the only teacher who is one of the teachers here mentioned. One perish nor be forgotten for it. It is the most common one that she has ever created, and the black woman, the uncrowned princess of America? It is not in bronze, and the old man is the most popular one, he should erect a monument to her, the one woman of all women, who is the most popular one, and the black woman who is the most popular one, being surrounded with a civilization that brooks no longer than the other. The particular situation, our mothers, the guarding angels of our destiny, the so-called "kings," are the most common of the right, and in the language of the immortal Lincoln, "In some way in which we can not all see, God will be." In all, the American uncrowned Princess, to the mother, the one American, whose sermon, whose sermon brighter as a house devotion will grow. Yes, we shall be some of the most如意. The most cónsulate, we shall be a monument to her, not in which we can not all see, but what then?

(Continued from page 1). ton was told by many that it would be impossible to ship the ships with Negro labor to Negro land we are building are equal to those but anywhere in the world. Some of the ships are working in the Newport News shipyard have been with the company and are on the retired list or ten are on the retired list and are receiving from one-third to one-half of the shipments. The successful Colored shipyard workers have built their own homes, have supported their curbouses, and have supported their churches. Best colored sections in the South A new Y. M. C. A. building has been built at a cost of $20,000 to care for Colored shipyard workers. For Colored shipyard workers, the shipyard was a pronounced success. A man was a pronounced success. He was a prominent worker, made by the company. Through the Y. M. C. A. the boys and men learned better habits and skills about thrift. Industries must make better workers. The man who works and does not get ahead simply writes. He is a man who does those who work at things a long time. "Udoc Jack," who has been long married, works at thrift. Villains at seventy to retire. He wanted to work on until the German had been whipped. This man and his wife, who own their own pets and the whites, Giffen. Colored people have the gift of good nature—good nature which is practically unfailing. Good nature is practically unfailing. Good nature is further almost any gift. A man is not made by the things which he does with his hands, but by what he thinks. The Colored man in the shipyard, who work skillfully and diligently as any other group of people. We must make class depend on degeny rather than upon the kind of work we do. The Colored people have a florid before they learn. They learn as others do, as others learn. They will work will bring them out all right. They must become a property of the Colored people naturally to get hold of a little property. Only death and disaster will desensitize them. All Colored people will light-minded white people are the friends of Colored people. A boy or a girl, a man or a woman, who is Colored, will be Colored.

(continued from page 1). peculiarly fitted to tender necessary advice to the War Department with respect to the Colored troops and to other matters affecting the interest of the Negro selectives and enlisted men, and to inquire into the treatment accorded them by the various officials connected with the War Department. In 1863, the Secretary of the Special Assistant to the Secretary of War was thus enabled to obtain a proper perspective both of the attitude of selective service officials to the Negro and of the Negro to the Dr. Roberts. As the representative of his race, his expressions, therefore, have great weight. In a memorandum addressed to the Secretary of the relation of the Negro to the war and especially the draft, on Dec. 15, 1813. Eager to Accept Terms "The attitude of the Negro to the war, and especially to the draft, was one of complete acceptance of the draft, and it was accepted to accept its terms. There was a deep resentment in many quarters that he was not allowed to work as a white man, by the thousands, were permitted to do in connection with the draft, and by the branches of military service which were closed to Colored men. One of the most difficult to understand history of the war is the Negro's eager acceptance of the draft and would willingness to work in his only occupation was due to the limited extent to which he was allowed to join and participate in combat. The number of Colored draftees accepted by the comparatively small numbers, and the exemption, as compared with the total number of white and Colored draftees accepted with respects an interesting study and reflects much credit upon this racial "Many influences were brought to bear upon the Negro to evade his duties in certain sections of the country was made to induce them not to register. The propaganda was a miserable failure may be seen from the statement of the chief of the Bureau of Investigation of the United States Senate committee: "The Negroes didn't take to these loyal. Money spent in the South for propaganda was thrown away." Then, too, these evil influences were more than offset by the various publicity and "promotion of morale" offices of the Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, and his assistants. Influenced by the influential Negroes all over the country, Letters, circulations, and news articles about the white and Negro press. A special committee of 100 Colored publicer public address addresses all over the country, under the auspices of the Committee on Public Information publicer address addresses all over the country, under the auspices of the Committee on Public Information publicer address addresses all over the Government and seeking to keep unbroken the spirit of loyalty of Colored citizens. "A special conference of Negro was called to meet in Washington, D.C., on the occasion of the Committee on Public Information, in order to gather and discuss the policies of the various leaders of the Negro race. Such has been only one occasion of the Special Assistant to the Secretary of War in the record of the American Nation. The conference of the representative of the Colored race for the cooperation shown by the Selective Service administration, especially as a result of the Negro race in reference to occasional complaints received, will appear from the office of the Dum written to this office on September 12th by the Special Assistant to the Secretary. Mr. Scott tells of Draft Fair. As "Throughout my tenure there I have keenly appreciated the prompt and cordial cooperation of its Provost and General Office with that particular section of the office," to Secretary of War especially referred to herein. The Provost Marshall General's Office has carefully investigated and has furnished full and complete reports in each and every comment on the General Office for the mention, involving discrimination, race prejudice, erroneous classification of draftees, etc., and has rectified these complaints whenever it was found, upon investigation, that there was just ground for the same. Especially in the following cases, the following out the Select's Service Negotiation Act of the Provost: Marshal General's office has kept a watchful eye upon certain local exemption boards which seemed disinclined to treat Negro drains on the same basis as other Americans, subject to the draft of the Act, and in actual fact that in a number of its stasses where flagrant violations have occurred in the application of the draft law to Negro men in certain sections of the country, local exemptions for boards have been removed bodily and were bordered by appropriate have been ordered by the Provost Marshal General to reclassify Colored men who had been unlawfully conscripted into the Army or who had been wrongfully classified; as a reclassified in the action hundreds of Colored men have had their complaints remedied and have been properly reclassified. "It is also valuable to note the six representatives of the Colored Negriees in the Negroes' participation in the war: In a word, I believe that the Nine-Powered State has great courage and demonstrated valor acce- tors, the seas have given him a new face, and he have given to the white people of our country a new idea of his citizenship, and his 150 per cent Americanism. Included in this new idea are those who help, many wars, peace, morality, and has been made an even more satisfactory asset to the TEXAS TOWNS. Bullard, Texas, March 13—Rev. C. M.

Thousands of others, like yourself, finally turned to using Seeby's Quinade, and have been so pleased with the result, they would never again waste their time or money using anything else. Quinade is not an ordinary ponade; it is highly medicated and is a real scalp food. Quinade stimulates and nourishes the roots of the hair, causing a natural growth of long, straight hair. It will make coarse, stubborn hair soft and silky, and easy to put up in the style desired. Quinade will positively allay itching of the scalp; and dandruff, which is the real cause of most hair and scalp troubles. To get best results from the use of Quinade, one should shampoo the scalp every two weeks with Seeby's Quinade�, a soap made entirely of pure vegetable oils. Quinaseap laths very freely and is a thorough cleanser. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled by any other shampoo. Instill on getting Seeby's Quinade and Quinacao, asking for them by email. Ask for a sample each. If your drugsist or dealer does not stock these two articles ask for a sample of the whole saleser for you, or send us the price and we will mail them to you direct Seeby Drug Co., 79 East 130th St., New York City. **ELITE CHEMICAL CO.** Why envy a beautiful woman when you can have the ELITE PREPARATIONS to make twice as beautiful Elite Hair Grower and Straightener, Elite Dandruff Remedy, Elite Face Cream, Elite Face Powder, Elite Odor Agents Wanted Elite agents make from $10 to $18 weekly.

No Oil Fields, but we see Oklahoma and Kansas and income. Our Special Offer To Texas People. We are selling to the public 50000 Shares of our Stock at $1.00 per share par value, and we have allotted 20,000 of these Shares to Texas people, as we want the Texas people to help share in the large profits that are to be derived from our production. Our President, Mr. J. J. Allen, is now in Texas and has been there for about two weeks, and he has already sold over one-half of the Stock allotted to Texas as quite a few of our leading men, such as Bill McDonald, Rev. A. L. Boone, Rev. E. M. Griggs, Dr. Hurd, Dr. Morgan and Busch, Prof. B. F. Darrell, Prof. Porter, Madam Wiggins and Dr. E. Arlington Wilson have bought in large quantities and others are buying daily. Our President is now in Dallas, and has planned to tour the state of Texas; but we do not know how far he will get before the Stock will all be sold, and we would advise that you cut out the application blank below and mail to us at once for the amount of stock you want, or write the office at once that you would like to see our president personally, and we will notify him to call upon you. The white race has succeeded; and believe if we are to succeed, we must follow in his footsteps. If you don't believe that white people are investing their money in oil, go into Fort Worth, Wichita Falls, or Dallas, Texas. It is just like going to a circus that is only to be in town one day. I'll bet there is over one hundred thousand visitors in those cities daily, who are investing in oil. Again, if you don't believe what I say, just read any of the Texas' daily papers; and if you want to see the greatest sight of your life, go to the City of Burkburnett, and take a view at the oil fields and listen to the burn of the gas engines and drilling pounding their way into mother earth to reach the black liquid gold that dows out of mother earth anywhere from two to four thousand dollars per day from one well. Just think of it. It isn't remarkable? Are you going to get your share of it? If you don't it is your own fault; if there's surely no prejudice in oil.

One of the leading Colored citizens of Travis County passed away in 1844. He was born in Abington, Va. in 1844. He was to Texas in 1845 and to Mississippi in 1846, an emancipation he began buying land in the same locality of his young masse. In the year of 1875, he married Miss Opelia Jackson at which time he was a landowner and moved of land and moved his young bride into a home bought and paid for. He never idle. He had been trained as a slave to arise and work late in the entire life in order that he might accomplish his purpose. Advantages, still he acquired a fair education by his continuous study, he will be encouraged the Colored people of Travis County to to buy land and work. He knew the key note for the Colored man after the emancipation. For he knew that the value of the land in this vicinity belongs Mr. Madison was not satisfied with his first tract of land, so he continued to buy and help his children to build a farm and to save his death. Another very good quality in Mr. Madison was, he did not believe in the reasonable offer, and has never sold any land that he had title to. He also believed in the power of Travis County and all he could to elevate his race. He taught his industry, theft and economy. He firmly believed in the power of the law, life, and was aware of his death and made preparations and made enquiries to be greatly missed by them all.

Editor W. E. King Delivers Lecture at Bethel A. M. E. Church, Tuesday Night Before The Young Men's Progressive League. The Actions of The Christ Made a Basis for the Lecture. By N. W. Harlee. The Hon. W. E. King, editor of the Dallas Express, the Negro Business League, organizer and race exponent, lectured to the Progressive League of Bethel A. M. E. church on Tuesday night of this week. His timely lecture was a heart to heart talk with the young men of this league, and it is not too much to state that no hour with young men could have been better spent; for it was an hour brimful of the choicest advice and encouragement and hopeful and manly suggestions. Some one has said that he would rather spend one hour with a great man than to read the best book for a whole month. We wish he could have been with the Young Men's Progressive League to hear this unique and instruc- The editor began by calling attention to the actions and purposes of the Christ Action among men, and how that his examples and precepts are those which men of all ages would do well to emulate, and that the Young Men's Progressive League could do no higher deed than to follow the greatest teachers in his actions and relations with men for the advancement of men. "Well directed actions" said the speaker, "must be the lamp with which we search out the hedges of youth to stimulate them and to guide them. You cannot afford to wait for them to come to you, but you must go to them." It is here that actions count more than mere words. It is not the fine things we say, however beautiful they may be; but is the fine things we do that will be lasting and beneficial, the noise of word pass away, they often leave no trace, like an idler's finger tracing through the air leaving no sign of its lost motion, but what we do with our actions well directed with purpose in view, will continue and abiding through the ages, because this action come in contact with higher motives that touch every part of a responsive action in others that cause the results. Let us learn the Christ example, for instance, when he wanted men to follow Him. He did something for me, he did not do so, he did not do them, he, however, they might have had need of them, nor houses and lands, nor great riches, for He was poor Himself, but to speak. He had to be so good to him, he had to study their condition, and then all the means to an end. If the man was lame. He gave him not a horse nor a chair. He had to do something to do himself. He gave him something to do himself, and then the higher result followed. "Take up the bed and walk," implied more than action, if he means the end of the men, and it means all, it means energy of body, energy of mind, to walk, means one to one very muscle and swing if it into a lifeless place. He has now been to be a long young, men, will you take it now and profit by it? The Christ action follows in close touch with the needs of men, if he is could be energy of the man. The first thing is the man is blind. If the individual is lame, first of all. He does something for the needy. He feeds the hungry. He gives the thirty-two, he he has to go to the blind and gives strength to the lame, and without an invitation, all follow on after Him. This means that we must feed the man, and you do not have to be in the form of the Christ. Man could ever in-dure the hungry man seeking bread nor the blind man seeking sight, nor the lame and striving walk. He has to do so, he has a direct proof that there was more than bread ahead, more than sight to the dim orb of the body, more than steps for the man. He has to do so, he has to do the more.�� to do something for the immediate and direct good of the men of this city, and especially of this immediate vicinity, you will have the same working you without a written invitation. A man may not belong to the church, he may not be interested in learning about the church, but he may care nothing about your league, but he may love his children, and it may be on the school grounds, on the school grounds, on the school grounds, and on the school playground, this same individual might seek your league for the kindness shown his child in another direction, for the kindness shown his child in similar actions not because he believes in your league as an institution, for something for his child and in resembling your league could influence public sentiment and thus secure recognition by bringing things to pass that would be appreciated. The way of actions along every pathway that leads to human success Kindness, courtesy, good manners, these are potent factors that speak louder than words, louder than thunder, for they are the voices of actions. They even appeal to the lower animals, you may dress up in my clothes, if you are the same size, and walk into my front gate, immediately my chickens will run away from you, although you have on my clothes and you look like me, the neighbors without closer inspections, would recognize you as me, but not so with the chickens, not so with my dog, and if dogs and chickens remember courtesy and kindness and debonair, shall we expect less in a human being? When we are about to enter a car, if there is a rush, and a lady is near, if we step back, and allow her to enter first, or a gentleman, so far as that is concerned, will there not be a responsive cord vibrating in a heart for courtesy, for your demeanor? The dog and the chickens acknowledge this and proclaim to you that there is kindness to them in THE DALLAS GIRLS WITH Wm.

Men's actions are influenced by their interest. All men are not actuated through fear, and some are not afraid. You can't say you're not in the late war, men in battle array, marched down through the very valley and shadow of death, joking with death, laughing in its face, so to reach men, we are to reach them not through fear, for they are not. I will know that you can't persuade them, they pass by the door of your feugue, by the very doors of your church, they do not come in, neither do they heed your kind invitations, how then are you to reach them, and have them take a part in your actions? You have a part in the thing left off them, it is the thing nearest to their mind as in the case of reaching the father through kindness to his child, and it is the most effective as well as the most lasting. Every one can be reached through his interest, only find out what it is, and you have the key to the situation in the hands, use it and turn it to success.

There could be no history without biography; no biography without the actions of human beings; no actions without an incentive. The greatest incentive which bestires as an intelligent being is the desire for liberty. The liberty to deliver the message which God sent him to deliver, the message of unvilted and unbound goodness, whether that goodness be in the capacity of those shines, they, scrub wom, ditch digger, or stenographer in a municipal, kindling; postal clerk in a post office; legislature, congressman, school board representative, text-book author, or patriot on the battlefield. Therefore, the one weak point in our educational system today, which has no place in the domain of democracy is the endeavor of America; his historians, magazine writers, new newspaper correspondents and lecturers to own the names of illustrations. Nogress and their deeds and achievements. For example, no one will deny the fact that the letter "Z" is as necessary to the completion of the alphabet as the letter "A" is necessary. And no letter can be destroyed without affecting the alphabet, nor without affecting the English Language. Imagine the omission of any letter of the alphabet! Thus to eliminate the faces of the darker sons and daughters from the pages of history, to deny them certain courses of study and training and to permit the student in the school room to rehearse the worthy deeds and heroic acts only of white men are to rob human history of the rich deposits that are also necessary to the sum total of human knowledge, and hence to render the student's knowledge of human history narrow and incomplete. Yes, the mission of scholars, scientists thinkers, sages and heroes is not to be hid behind the hill, nor to be bound by mere racial ties. What virtue would there be in the divinity of Jesus Christ if His grace were ministered only to the Jew? Coming now to the subject of my essay, at that period when the conscience of men was awakening as to the sin and curse of American slavery, there was also born in the midst of those stirring days a black hero, a slave, fed on ash cakes, was made to be a white and a white fully of the conscience. That hero was Frederick Douglas, abolitionist, orator, statesman and diplomat, who was born on the Lloyd plantation, in Talbot County, Maryland, in February, 1817, Douglas' mother herself was a slave to whom he gave credit for his aspirations and talent. But his father was a white man, an incident which he could occur during the war and a half centuries of American slavery—so common that had slavery remained a half or three quarters of a century longer there would not have been a full blooded Negro, despite the fact that during all slevery there was no howi of social equality, and not even one lynching. But to turn on even more light, and thus to the present of the will of the U.S. Comune estimates the number of molttoes in 1860 to be 13.2 per cent of the total Negro population; and 20.3 per cent in 1910 an increase of 7.7 per cent. This is social equality, pure and simple, in no little degree to the contrary, however unexangly and illegally it has been exerciating the white man (perhaps by the lyncher and the maker of jim crow, www). While in his teens Douglas found his way to Baltimore, where he acquired a passion for teaching. Although it was a penitentiary offence to teach a hawk to read, he acquainted himself with books, acquainted with books. He shined shoes for a few pension with which he began his career as an orator. When only fifteen years old, he was purchased by a Baltimore lawyer, and he was acquainted with twelfone-one. Douglas escaped to New York, where he new Bedford, and abolished his alabist William Loyd Garrison. Upon the friendly invitation of Gerrard, he was sent to New England the abolition mission in New England. It was at an anti-slavery meeting that Douglas made a speech that ratified him a national charismatic Shall this elephant, fivetime slave be sent back to Maryland? There was the purpose of making sentiment-taking agents of this society, making harmless speeches wherein the slaves Slav, an abolition paper, at Rochester, was a potent interest. In 1845 Douglas visited England where he advocated the cause of his brother, the founder of his friends the Church of St. John the Baptist, and the mission of $750.0 with which his freedom was purchased. 17, 1849 Governor William B. Hancock on the governor of Michigan for the arrest of Douglass, wh. was charged with conspiracy in the John Brown起义. He was tried and convicted to England, thereby avoiding another conicalization, of which he said, "I am not guilty to be made an eagle to be made in the mane of the British lion." Bearded Garrison those who were involved in the John Brown起义, and who are his sixuest supporters with Wendell Phillip, Gerret Smith, Camerlan Summer, William E. Chambers, and John Brown, the Married Becher Stowa, Sojourner Truth and Harriet Stowa, the heirine of the underground railroad. On the day of his arrest, while, ouglasan was making a speech in which he showed to be deceived, he said, "In God Seed, Frederick After the enunciation of the shaves, Douglass held various postures, including one in 1881, he was made marshal of the army of Columbia, and in 1892, he was appointed Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia; Bedside added "The North Star," and "The Star of David," to his doom, "Life and Times of Frederick Douglass" and several pamphlets. Douglass and several caricatures made him minister to Italy. While a resident in New Bedford, he was a citizen of New Bedford where were two (two) sons of Charles) and a daughter, Setha son saved on the Union side in the Civil War. Of his descendants, his grand son, Joseph, became one of the great patriots of the Civil War. After her death, he married Helen Pitau, a white woman, who was a clerk in the office when Douglas The voice of Douglass was hushed and he folded his arms to rest from 7:00 o'clock. February 20, 1865 at Oak Hill, just beyond the outskirts of Jacksonville, England and the Negroes generally throughout America mourned his death, valued at $200,000. He was tall, robust, well developed and in robust form since his death, he was unimpinged and uncompromising in action for a struggling people. Note the contrast of conditions of the past and of the present, the decades following his death. During the 24 years of his life, he was a slave, a slave and a slave and trust up to the United States, while the 24 years following his death were positions foe him. Without comparison, measuring men by the same criteria, Douglass is the most remarkable Negro man in all history reads more like a romance than that of Douglass. Douglass, with the vision, faith and hope of a prophet, with the sympathies of a soldier as bold and as fearless as a Lion, will will shake this nation until he votes, the liberty to live, the liberty to study, the liberty to mature properly.

No more drilling in hob-nall shoes No more lining up in column of no more feeling like I'm in jail No more going off on cold details.

He was in the same ward with white soldiers and was nursed by white southern nurses. Our hospital is situated in a quiet and beautiful part of France, and well equipped for the proper scientific care of our soldiers. He was buried in a small new American c.e. interry in the town of Linoges. I attended his funeral with the nurses and members of our command when the bugle blew he was lowered into a soldier's grave, under an American flag. The inscription on the head board is carnality and well, done in the same room, the nurses are planted on each side of the gr. ve. Everything was done for him in life and in Leats as you would have wished it done. His personal belonging will be sent to you later from the Effects Department if there is anything, you would like to know I will be glad to write you again with depost symptom to you and so, I am most sincerely yours, E. A. HOLMER. E. L. BLACKSHEAR INTERESTED IN GOVERNMENT INSURANCE FOR THE NEGRO. The Director of the Bureau of War Risk Insurance, Col. Henry L. Dingley, has handed over your job January 29th, enclosing communication from E. L. Blackhair, Fleet Negro Division. I am very glad indeed to have this communication and thank you very much for having brought it to my attention. I am to advise you that plans are now being worked out for a very extensive campaign look toward the conversion into some standard form of armament. Martial armaments can be carried by soldieries and sultons. I wish you would write M. Blackhair be most actively useful in urging upon the hone on to the necessary hone on to the necessary term policies—in other words, urge them to keep up their premium payout and money order and be made payable to the Treasurer of the Unit. SUPERSTITION AN OLD ONE In All Ages the Belief in "Crysta Gaxing" Has Been More or Less Strongly Held. Crystal gazing, or "scrying," as writers on the subject term it, has been prægicted pretty well over the world from ancient times to the present. In early times they used to scry in spring and bowls of water. In the British museum there is a crystal ball said that it has been used by Dr. Deco, a financial expert at the Royal Bank of England, that sublime humbug of the eighteenth century, used to place a pail of water on the stage and request some child to come out of the audience and gaze into it. The child would babble of castles, pageants and other marvelous pictures he could see in the clear liquid. The society for psychological and social life is a whole process which is one would almost conclude, are ready to swallow whole superstition in any shape, has done some crystal gazing and at its accounts had glass balls for sale at its headquarters in London. The late Andrew Lang stated his belief that some people have the faculty of "seeing faces, places, persons in motion in a glue-free way." But scouts do not clear clear deep, but scouts the nothing in the way of finding lost property or in foretelling the future, as has been claimed for it by crystal gazing enthusiasts. As a crystal ball is not absolutely necessary, by all accounts, and a glass pitcher of water will do just as well, almost simply the same thing. The liquid first turns black, it is claimed, then come the pictures. Some of us may feel that it would require a wait of at least a hundred years before anything could be seen. HOW ROMANS GOT THE NEWS Bulletin Boards Furnished information to the Citizens of the "Capital of the World." Celius Julus Caesar knew the value of publicity. As far back as he was consul (60 B.C. B.C.) he ordered the assassination of his own son, these. "These Aequus Saturna" were published on a whitened wooden board called "album", the nester of "albus", which means "the sun". In imperial Rome, as 29 B.C. was an official publisher, "Curator Aurorum" . . . this news corresponded to what we get in our Congressional Record — the interruptions — the interruptions and the applause in 60 B.C. Caesar also ordered published "in silbo" the private news of "interruptions" "Aequus Dumal Populi Resurus". The bulletin boards of the modern newspapers had their precursors in these white tablets ordered to be disney-themed. You can see York there are men who haunt the bulletin boards of the metropolitan dailies, jot down the news displayed there, and later tell the items to be displayed. You can support so extensive a news service as that furnished by the United or the Associated Press. So in Rome, the writer of news letters or circulating copies of the newspaper sent the most important items to his subcontract out of the city. Scandal was featured in "Atoo Duraum," and society news, in modern fashion, was concerned. From the Quell. First Bottled Beer. One of the funniest of accidental discoveries relates to bottled beer. In the reign of Queen Mary a certain schoolmaster had to fly to the continent for his life. He was angying by the slvery Thames at the time the warning reached him. Some years later he landed in the land, but to the very spot for the very same purpose, with rod and line. Growing thirsty, he remembered that there was a neighbor below of a neighboring tree when he had suddenly taken flight some years before. The bottle was there, but when he removed the corp. it went away. The schoolmaster think it had been changed by the fairs to a run. Time for Politeness There is nothing clearabout what the young man who steps aside to ask a woman to wear a car hood or a car heels or on her dress. There is nothing a generous or kindly in the young man who is someone an interview, at the same time making the interview 'relax that he is encroaching on the time of a girl.' There is no vices in the hurried hand shake that is not accompanied by a smile. There is no kiss that is given from force of habit or from custom. Every person you such that does not bear the same courtesy in aim to 'inault' The Ephermer Man loves the thing that doesn't at. He llies on the ephemeral. His newspaper, with its passing quips and rapidly feding scenarios, is his daily life reading. The death of an actor, who will be forgotten the week after his burial, moves a people profoundly. Thousands sit up all night to read a book that they "acrap" the next day. Man does not seek truth, but variety; he seeks seauation, not permanency. His health has in his inconclustences. For to be ephemeral is human; but to be eternal is to be dead.

As soon as the details of the Convention Campaign have been agreed upon I will make it a joint to see that Mr. Blackshear is supplied with all of the necessary information.

Chief, Insurance Division --- LUCKY 76" This Name Was Chosen For the Fact that Our Holdings Are In Block 76, Red River Valley Lands Burkburnett, Wichita County IF YOU can afford to lose $1.00 or more come in, with us and help to develop this tract—but if friend, wife or the kiddies need the money, stay out, for the oil game should be played by those who can afford to lose. YOU CANNOT truthfully be promised anything but a gambler's chance, and he who promises more is not truthful to you or himself. The biggest company that has been the most successful in the past may strike a duster this time, then again they may strike oil. Your chances with us are just as bright or brighter than they would be in any other company in the proven field. LOOK AT both sides of it; consider the amount of dusters that have never paid a penny in dividends. Then consider the many investments like the $125.00 one, that brought back $500,000; also the many companies that have paid dividends as regular as day and night. OUR HOLDINGS Consist of 5 acres in the proven field, which as you know, is worth many times as much as several acres in unproven fields. No dry holes have been drilled within one and one-half miles of our holdings. The famous Humble well lies less than a mile south of us, the Marine and Woods well about one mile southeast, the Hammond about three-fourths of a mile east, the Bark-Waggoner just northwest, the Hammond-Art just southwest and the city of Burkburnett about one and one-half miles southeast; adjacent to us there are more than 200 wells on the verge of completion. Oil has been found on four sides of us in paying quantities, so you really have more than a gambler's chance. Consider that a producing well brought in on any adjacent lease means a demand for part of our acreage, and should we decide to sell a part you will receive a handsome dividend from this source alone. Don't forget that just south of us holds the record prices for acreage in Texas, F. W. Evans of Joplin, Mo., paying $20,000 an acre. ASK ANYONE who really knows (we are willing that you accept their word) to draw you the lines of what they consider the oil trend of Burkburnett; they may vary as to direction, but you will find they all include Block 75, and we are right in the center of the block. JUST TRUTHS Come in with the organizers; if they make money you will. Do as they did; if you make your check for as much as you can afford, no more so less. That of what a ten dollar bill will bring you, if we strike a gusher. More than 200 oil companies in Texas are paying dividends ranging from 10 per cent to 100 per cent per month. Our location is in the big production hub; therefore there is no reason why we cannot pay big dividends. SALARIED PEOPLE The officers of this company fully analyzed this proposition before offering it at such a low figure as $1.00 per share. If the working men and women, "those with only a small salary," invest but a small sum and on that sum realize a handsome profit, they become our boosters and advertisers, and when we organize another company, which we are sure to do, "for we want to be known as the most successful During February in the Burkburnett field there were 77 wells completed, 5 were dry—think of it—94% per cent were producers. This record against the entire record of the United States for all of last year shows why it pays to invest in this field. Today wells are drilled in 94% of the United States, 60% were dry holes and 79% per cent were producers. Your chances in Burkburnett are 15% per cent greater. THE TRUSTEES Your money is handled by men tried and proven, men whose records show that they are successful and conservative; not promoters, just plain, every-day executives. They are just as positive that this lease contains oil as they are that there is daylight and darkness; they have invested a large sum in this lease and if you are able to afford it, they want you to invest with them. YOUR COMPANY These two words tell the complete story. There is no preferred stock, no assessments, no one can buy more than 5000 shares. The man or woman with one share of stock receive their dividends as promptly as the officers of the company. The dividend is made in the development of this lease, and no other property can be accepted with a two-thirds vote of the stockholders. In the event of the sale of part of our lease, the money must at once be pro rated among the stockholders in the form of dividends. Should the first well drilled bring oil in paying quantities no other well can be drilled until the stockholders have received 100 per cent on their investment, unless consent is obtained by a two-thirds vote of the stockholders. The Trust Agreement provides for a special fund of $25,000 to be deposited with a Dallas bank, "name given in trust Agreement," to be used for no other purpose except drilling; should it not be necessary to use all of said amount banked with stock in the development of this lease, a real run for your money. You can sleep nights knowing that your money is being used for the one purpose—the development of your lease, instead of using the money for the development of other fields as some companies do. and according to every rule of nature and geologist it lies under Block 76. Therefore, we only want to sell one-half of the capital stock. Just as soon as this is accomplished our Trust Agreement provides that we let contract for drilling. This gives you until March 27th to buy at par, so don't even hesitate, but buy now. Don't even hesitate, mail this coupon today. The men and women who never take a chance are always found working for someone else, plodding along in a rut. They are just like a clock—always on the go, but standing still. Lucky 76 Oil Company.

ADAMS, for Police Commissioner GOOD GOVERNMENT PLATFORM PLEDGE OF THE MANY A THE PRESEN "We stand for a square deal for every man and every association of men," reads the first plank in the platform of the Good Government Association. That plank alone covers enough of the material issues to be a full platform for man and for every association of men that can be asked. It is all that is affected by every free-thinking citizen. A square deal can be construed in numerous ways, according to the policies of the organization, to make an interpretation. There are two classes of people, those we know and those we do not. The two classes of people, those whose acts have borne out their words and whose promises we have to accept. For those people who have been raised in our years, little need be said. They have been able to see clearly the prosecution, administration, an administration when efforts have been centered to carry out its campaign pledges to the people. They have been when such enlargement means the betterment of conditions for the A square deal has meant to the administration of Mayor Joe Lawther the head of the movement of movements that have culminated in the betrayment of conditions for the people of Dallas. Among these conditions, street widening, parks in various portions of the city, the service, sample gas of gas for the houseoverhead crossings, increased wages for the city workers, an austere water in Oak Cliff, paving, and most of all the betrayment of moral conditions in Dallas. A vital to the people of Dallas has already earned to the people of Dallas than the encouragement of such progresses as have been made for the next two years. For the next two years. Some of the party's years ago have been filled under the most of the trying conditions known to history.

It was clearly shown that Mayor Lawrenter, though being elected by a partial part of the colored vote two years earlier, had not supported the colored people through his commissioners, in that we now have a law that favors the colored people of our people; and all were convinced if the colored vote is given him in large numbers this year more The campaign for the colored people will formally open at the corner of the courtyard on Monday night, March 19th, at which time they propose to have speaking for the Good News and two or more speakers.

However a review of these reports discloses some very appropriate maturities. Col. W. E. King of the Dallas (Texas) Express is the premier editor of the Negro Press of the Missoula Johnson address of the New News Star, is probably the only woman of the race who is successfully paying newspaper; that J. R. B. King of the Canadian Observer, Toronto, Canada, publishes the only race paper in the Mecca of the literary A few of the representatives present are serving the race in a sphere to which journalism is but an adjunct. These men deserve especial mention here because their compilations are the press are not only gratuitous but are sometimes at a sacrifice to themselves. In this is we include: Hon. Joseph L.

Last Citizens aide from those already mentioned to whom this Column extends appreciation include: Hon. J. C. Napier, Rev. Preston Taylor, Dr. C. H. Clark, Prof. W. H.

Work, compiler of SOUVENIRS SATURDAY PAGE THIRTEEN the Negro Year Book in cathoring some interesting data on the press operations When the government restrictions on publishing new paper has been lifted and as a consequence a number of race publications is being introduced It is a compliment to the integrity of some of the publications drawing the line on the hair straightening and face-bleaching advertisements. The Philadelphia Tribune is the great discretion in this matter. If the paper you are reading prints "Negro" without using a capital "N" it knows as well as you do that in an insult. Why not take a race paper and tie its integrity. Why not state state press association to affiliate with the national organization? Of course the race papers are grateful to the persons who subscribe just to patronize race enterprise, but a clear appreciation of the service paper is what the papers are soliciting. The sentiment that merchants who desire Colorado patronage should advertise in *Colored papers* ought to fail to do so. Colorado may automatically boycott his own business. The race fails to do so would automatically boycott his own business. The race captures the places that do not want us without having to guess on the places that do want us. We continue to grow. The booster roll includes the persons who use this column or website to contribute the literature of our people among the race. We publish the new additions to the roll as a matter of course, and that the smallest thing you can do in the interest of this great work is to contribute in this department of this paper. If any reader would like to appear on our roll he can arrange to do so by writing to the address, Wilmington, Ohio, asking what can I do for race literature*?

Allen, president of the World Wonder Oil and Gas Company of Kansas City, Mo., is in the city where he started his career. While here this progressive young man met some of the prominent men and women in the industry and included in their minds the principle of World Wonder Oil and Gas Company and its properties which is in the heart of the Burk Burnet field, one of the fields in the country, was able to unload a quantity of stock in the field. He is a live wire, "and nothing else." BIRTHS. Born to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Louis Allen, 3208 State Street, Monday, March 3, a girl. TROUBLE STARTS WHEN WHITE WOMAN STRIKES A COLORD WOMAN BOARDING A STREET CAR. When Miser Florence Caviness attempted last Saturday evening to abduct a birth girl street car she was pushed by a white man at her back against a white lady who turned and struck her. Miser Caviness resisted the blow. She was arrested as a charge of battery and battery was filed against her. She was released on bond. Miss Caviness related the incident an Express reporter, said in part: "I boarded the car that the ones, behind would show, however, when the in-room opened I acted only in self defense. ASK ONLY FOR FAIR CHANCE Crippled Soldiers Are Eager to Prove They Have Lost None of Their Good American Grill A West Virginia private soldier who loss a leg in the war and now goes on crucides was visiting the national capital, and while inspecting the Washington monument requested a policeman to act as a witness for a short time. The cripple then proceed to climb to the top, 500 feet above the ground and reached by 800 steps. It is clear that this athlete was not in Washington to claim a pension on the ground of physical disability. In fact, he asks no more than a fair chance to show that he is fit to hold a job, and is ready to prove it. In the main military hospital in Washington the patients are publishing a paper called the "Come Back," whose main purpose is to promote the industrial welfare of crippled soldiers and saitors. It gathers information on useful work for men who recover from amputations or serious wounds, and wants to ascertain how much they will be able to do, not how little, and to encourage ambitious efforts as far as possible. Such endovers, for one thing, add to the happiness of those who often are merely elassed as unfortunates. A crippled condition does not necessarily mean a crippled life. The privilege of being independent that appealed to Burns as glorious is clear to every healthful nature and earnest participant in the duties of life. But, Louis Globe-Democrat. MAY AGAIN BECOME NATION Possibility that Arab Tribes Will Be Recruited as One Result of the Great War. One of the most interesting figures at the opening of the peace conference was Prince Emir Fatiul, son of the king of the Hedjaz, the latter known for his bravery in very handsome and his picturequeen headdress was well suited to his style. As the prince strove up and down the hill, he was a perfect type of Arab beauty and dignity. The representation of his fine race in the peace conference and their present effort to establish their own national identity opined which, I believe, is held among orientalists that the Arabs are described ultimately to play a big part in districts around the Suez canal and the Red Sea and have wondered whether they would not again become a nation to meet the needs of the districts around the Suez canal and the Red Sea and have wondered whether they have lacked the co-operation and cohesion which enable a nation to meet the needs of the historic romances if out of the world war the Araba emerged as an organized people prepared to assume the historic romances in the near East. — New York Times.

The reports from many parts of the United States that some women of an adw arnous nature married seated on the floor, whose bands would be killed and that they would collect the insurance money are based on fact, it is believed. A young woman, all dressed women, was taken to Wash, recently and received a letter. She opened, read, and a lingered lonely. A man driving a machine in which she rode downward asked her what was wrong, when a woman appeared by replying that her husband had been killed and she would get the $10,000 insurance. Origin of Famous Dynes. The famous blue and purple dyes of the east, frequently mentioned in history, were in air probability extracted from the Roccaella lichen, which has been extensively used in France. It has been used in the dress of sillies. These dyes are secured by palverizing the plant body, terming the thin jus, and extracting the coloring matter by applying alllure.

Naturalist, H himself Not Immune From Danger, Tells of Incidents He Saw as He Watched the Progress of the Insects. I was going quietly in my mammoth, glad to escape for an instant the insistent screaming of a claets which seemed to have gone mad in the jungle heat, when a low rattling roar leaves without wind; the voice of a breeze in the midst of breathless heat, writes William Beebe, in the Atlantic Monthly. There was in it something like a giant roar, the edge of my hammock, and saw coming toward me, in a broad, irregular front, a great army of ants, battalion after battalion of them flowing like a sea of living moles over twigs I knew the danger and I half sat up, prepared to roll out and walk to one side. Then I gamed my supporting stunts; tested them until they vibrated too hard. I was ready to see what would come about. I knew that no creature in the world could stay in the path of this horde until it was dead. The bird would require only a few insults, and the death of a jaguar or a tapir would mean only a few more. Against this attack, claws, poison fangs would be idle weapons. In the van fled a cloud of terrified insects—those gifted with flight to wing their way far off, while the humbler ones went running headlong, their legs, four, six or a hundred, making the swiftest pace vouchsafed them. There were foolish folk who climbed up low ferns, achieving the swaying, topmost frends only to be crafted by the savage ants and brought down to instant death. Even the winged ones were not irremarkable, for if they hesitated a second, an ant would seize upon them, and, unnaturally carried into the air, would not escape. The winged ant would construct their flight, and perhaps bring them to earth in the heart of the jungle, where, cut off from their kind, the single combat would be waged to the death of the ant, saw massacres innumerable; and creature-battles in which some creature—night beside an ant—fought for life, crushing to death scores of the ant. They were a merciless army and their number was countless, with host upon host following close on each other's heels. A horde of warriors found a bird in my game bag, and left of it hardly a feather. I wondered whether they would discover me, and they did, though I think it was more by accident than by intention. Nevertheless a half dozen ants appeared on the foot strands, nervously twiddling their antennae in my direction. Their appraisal was brief; with no more than a second's delay they started toward me. I waited until they were well on their way, then vigorously twanged the cords under them harpwise, sending all the scouts into midair and hendlong down among their fellows. So far as I know, this was a revolutionary maneuver in military tactics, comparable only to the explosion of a set mine. But even so, when the last of this brigade had gone on their menacing, pitless way, and the danget had passed to a new province, I could not help thinking of the certain, inexorable fate of a man who, unable to move from his hammock or to make any defense, should be thus exposed to their attack. There could be no help for him if but oub of this great host should scent, him out and carry the word back to the rank and file. All Thieves There Superintendent Quinn of Scotland Yard, who retired a few weeks ago, once remarked quizzically that if a man want I to go in for pickup pockets he could not select a better place for operation than Seven Dials, London. "Why?" queried an interested listener. "Well, you see," replied Quinn, "supposing the plexpocket is detected he will naturally start to run away." "Naturally! But what then?" pursued Quinn, "smebody is cure to shout 'Stop theft.'" "Yes, very probably," recalled his interlocutor. "What?" "Why, then," concluded Quinn, trumpet-howl "he will get away. For directly the city of 'Stop theft.' is raised in the Seven Dials, every infinitely stall running, and nobody can tell the particular chief who is wanted." England, which has a richness of slang that is surprising to "a American, is convinced that United States is a different language from English, but English is being so convinced, English newspapers are picking up and "playing" many new discoveries in the slang line. Their latest discovery is that the word "I don't know" is a short and cert way of answering "I don't know" to the limitless fool questions asked by rookies in the army. The first agent, it is reported, is a man of great glory and shortened to "much the top." THE DALLAS EXPRESS, DALLAS, TEXAS, SATURDAY, MARCH 15, 1919. THE.DALLAS EXPRESS HOW A MAN PICKS A WIFE Some Conclusions That Have Been Reached by the Registrar at the Boston City Hall. Edward W. McGlennen, registrar at the Boston city hall since 1900, who keeps record of that city's marriages, has been a member of the selection that association determines a man's course in the selection of his wife, and when you have chosen you: vocation you have automatically chosen; education you observe the New York Herald. Mr. McGlennen has found that tattoors tailorresses, longshoremen choose nurses, teachers, marry stenographers, while professional men more often pick their wives from the girls in society in which they move. He eight years of daily observation of the way and habits of prospective homemakers, Mr. McGlennen has come to the conclusion that proximity in the chief determining factor of marriage In the long and voluminous marriage records the various averages of the different vocations show that chaufs and cooks are attracted by cooks and cooks are attracted by millers and millers are invited toward still close relationship. Salvation Army men choose a Salvation Army肌架, the sea captain picks a good housekeeper and a good maid, the fall in love, when ashore, with wardsresses who serve their meals. Mr. McGlenen believes that good looks and good clothes are not such an importance as the all a matter of environment. The telephone operator is a favorite with the soldier, also the nurse who ministers to him when wounded. Lunchies marry their customers, and so it goes on. What puzzles Mr. McGlenen, however, is why a mariner chose a dentist's assistant as life mate and how a street car conductor came to pick up the mess. There are exceptions to the general rule. Lied In Attempt to Save Pet. Determined efforts by ladies of high social position to smuggle pet dogs without license into England were recently described to a representative at the board of agriculture, London. It takes the combined intelligence of Scotland Yard and the customs officials to curmanower some dog lovers. Ever since the board became a foreign princess was tested on a deck stool and a wind was blowing. A shrew observer, whose duty it was to inquisitive with his eyes, hops up to the stool and sees a little dog wagging full. On land landing the lady, in reply to the question, said she had nothing to declare. "No dog, madame" "Certainly." "Then," she said, "the question I must send for the female searches to have your statement verified." "In that case," said the lady, "if you will allow me a couple of minutes by my side, I produce my little dog." Which she did. Making Themselves At Home. I called at the offices of the International Y. M. G. A. Hospital league of the United States bluejackets, and heard a delightful tribute to the United States bluejackets, of whom so many thousands have been in London recently. Quite a number of them were entertained at private parties, and I met them in the daytime, free to become members of the family when they had tired themselves with stitching. I overheard two would-be hostesses talking of their recent guests. "Mine, too, is a girl," she said, and so perfect in their manner. But my dear, they had not the least notion of want war means." "How so?" "Well, of course, I didn't grudge, but it was a little trying to one's nerves, and I had to eat their bacon and left half a spoonful of marmalade on their plates!" Use the Mind Properly. Some people have to be entertained all the time. They must have some experience. Hours spent alone are eternities. Wise folks keep quiet about this. Only the rush confess to the world how empty their souls really are. They do it because they are not alone. They mean. There will need to be eternal vanderville or some other show to make them at all comfortable. And the hours spent add nothing to their perseverance. They add that adds to life. That may have little or no meaning. It's what the mind appropriates and remakes with in itself that adds to life. And it's the mind that makes the employees that makes the hours fly. It's the same ability to use the mind that will fill eternity with pleasure. The Sword of Prince Maurice The Sword of Prince Maurice. The London Evening News tells a pathetic story of a soldier's sword. It was a sword of the great price of Battlement, and it has just been given to his mother, Princess Beatrice. Prince Maurice was killed in the Battle of Waterloo, and buried in our lines. Our forces had just retreated, and all the prince's kft fell into the hands of the Germans, except his inscribed sword. This sword was kept in a cottage, where the owner had been billeted, and for four years it has been living there, with Germans billeted, in the house. Now the poor Belgian family, to whom the prince belonged, asks it to the dead soldier-mother. THE the best equipped office .

Every man knows what a curling iron is, but does every man know whether or not a curling iron is a tool. The question was raised in Judge Guinca's court in Chicago recently in the Otto Muths murder trial. Otto Muth was a lawyer when Edward attached him with a curling iron, which he thought a dangerous weapon. The Judge ruled a deference to Muth's request, as necessary, as everybody knew what it was. "Here I have," one spectator whispered to another. "A curling iron in one of those hot things that burn your fingers when you are fumbling around among the things on your wife's dresser." "I looks like a pair of scissors with wooden handles," and the other. "It is, it's deadly, too," a woman who worked with the other night and the way it killed a lot of her hair was a caution. "Fortunately," another woman answered, "the curling iron hath no answer." Assistant State's Attorney Daniel Ramsey insisted there might be single men on the jury. The judge glanced knowingly at the jurors. The youngest looked bewildered. So Judge Giger decided the despair of the gun supplied. The youngest juror appeared relieved when he heard what it wag. WORK FOR HIGH EXPLOSIVES French Scientist Suggests Their Use in the Reclamation of War Devastated Orchards. The vigorous growth of wild plants about shell holes has suggested to M. Andre Piedaltia a novel plan for quick-ly restoring war-devastated orchards. The vigor of the weeds is attributed partly to the fissuring of the soil by the shell-fire and partly to nitroventuouns substances introduced, and, in the proposal to the French Academy it is concluded that an ideal orchard soil could be produced by breaking up the rough surface with dynamite in such a way that fertilizing material would be driven into the soil. The fertilizer would be compressed in paper or cellulose and the cylinders of the explosive, which would be fired by a fulminating charge. Holes for the cartridges about two feet deep would be bored with a stick or iron rod, and in the spherical cavity about 30 inches deep produced by the explosion, the young tree would be placed and coveted with the fertilizer-charged soil. Perhaps some of the enormous stores of high explosives left over from the war could be utilized in this way. A suggestion already made is that the United States could put to use some of its 50,000,000 or 100,000,000 tons of TNT for reclaining arid deserts, irrigating ditches being dug and roads graded by firing trains of the explosive placed along the surface. Dog Got the Rabbit Exploration of caves in South Berkshire, Conn., resulting in the discovery of stalactites and stalagmites, big white apilers weaving their webs, bats insulting the riverine brook, made Jack Newboy of Lenoxville recall the day that he went rabbit hunting in the Patterson woods. Newboy's dog chased a rabbit into the woods, and he swatted its suits. He waited two hours, called the dog, and, getting no results, went home. He found the dog was at home and had the rabbit. Pat, his brother, explained: fishing on a lake not far from the shore when I heard a commotion in the water near by and was surprised to see a rabbit in the water. As I reached the spot the dog came to see a rabbit in the water. I captured him."—New York World.

She urged them to think seriously about what they had in their hearts. Dorothy's hand went up. The teacher gave her permission to speak. Dorothy's daddy, has nudges in his heart. Now the teacher was sufficiently interested in the psychology of the thing she was talking about, Dorothy had recently attended a wedding with her parents.

The return of Major Fred Bates Johnson to civilian life in Indianapolis recalls a story about him that has been long forgotten. In the days before he was a major or a captain, or even a private, he used to go down to Salem for week-and-visit with Walter Crim, particularly after the fire that raided the fried chicken or the asasasafrop came ripe. His comings were frequently, if not often, unannounced, but he all the signs and pass words into his mind. He would go in and wait for the coming of one or the other member of the firm, or telephone to see whether there was a person in the building. One Saturday morning he came in this way, and it happened that while he was down on his knees trying to put back a roster that had slipped from his pocket, he chaired a log-hauler arrived on the scene. Being of an inquisitive disposition, the log-hauler tried to find out what a stranger was doing down on his desk, and who knew Major Johnson will easily believe, the information which he received was not wholly satisfactory. On Sunday night Crim's sate was cracked. Early Monday morning, as soon as the news of the robbery became known, came rushing down to the number years. "Say," he called, excited, "I can tell you who did that! There was an accident Saturday morning when nobody was around, a little chap with yellow hair and great big glasses. Fell he was taken to the hospital, and formatted the office somewhat crest-fallen when he was told. In no uncertain language, just who that "suspicious fellow" was—Indiana-polis News. HOW INDIANS FIGHT "FLU" Heroic Remedy Which Unfortunately Does Not Always Seem to Have The Desired Effect.

A pyramid of granite, weighing approximately seventy-five tons, has been placed on the old Mark Baker farm at BOW, N. H., as a memorial to Mary B. McCormick, a science church, says New York Evening Post. The block was quarried at North Concord, and is said to be the largest ever cut. In the rough it might have been, it has 90 tons. It will be anchored on a concrete base on the Bow plenum overlooking the Morrificia valley, and will measure seven feet nine inches in height, in indulgence. It will be anchored in a square. The pyramid is placed in exact orientation. Four bronze tablets affixed to each face of the pyramid bear suitable inscriptions. Balkan Whiskers.

Sentry Box on His Farm A Cook county farmer whose farm is not far from Chicago has built a sentry house in the corner of his place from which he can see what is going on in the city. He has captured the upper room every night and, aided by a dog, knows when anyone is sneaking around the premises. The lower part of the sentry house he uses is a large room with a window. The upper part gives him a wide view of all the surrounding country. Except for these precautionary measures, he says, stranglers from the city would not be on or by circuses set fire to the small buildings—Capper's Weekly. (Copyright, McClure Newspaper Syndicate). There was no question about it. Martha Bain was not beautiful. Freckles are not necessarily rocks on the road of romance. Neither is it a pig nose, nor string hair of a rusty ear. Freckles was not given a part in Cupid's drama. That she had no part in it until—well, this was the way of it: Perched behind the desk in Eagle Heights hotel Martha watched the children and her little heart, which really was very big, thumped away unnoticed and neglected. Perhaps if she had obtained a polished personality at a hotel herself, her herself interesting to the knights from the big town; but Martha's father considered a high school education sufficient for his hotel clerk, specially herself interesting in queer of the rustic. Nevertheless, Martha often dreamed when she sat at the bed of Walloon tink in the light of the moon, that she had a knight of her own—sometimes two. Harold Kingsley came to Eagle Heights for a month's recreation from his literary lab. He was tall and slim, almost to the point of lankiness. He was a tall, skinny eye from which a soul seemed to shine. When he came along the beach he found the tawny skin into the water for a white fox terrier to chase. Harold atoped and watched, watched some distance behind the girl, so she did not become aware of his presence. "Some on, Knight," she admonished, and the dog emerged from the water holding a jagged stick, which he dropped at the girl's feet. "Then Knight spied Harold and went to him with a stick." "Oh, I beg your pardon," Martha exclaimed, when she turned and saw Harold brushing drops of water from his clothes. "That Is, Knight beg your parchment." He brushed lightly and reaching down, patted the terrier regardless of the latter's dripping skin. "Don't bother about the apologies," he remonstrated. "I can dry out again. I have a best suit. I have another-bosset." From that time they were friends, the three of them. Nearly every evening they were together, walking along the timbark paths in the woods in a secluded nook on the lake shore. Sometimes he talked to her of the big town and the sights he had seen on his travels; at other times he read books, a few pictures, a few knights, and she held an attraction for him to which none of the patrons of the hotel, who were bound to notice what went on, could reconcile them. He was a man of great element, which was in the unjority. One night Harold grasped Martha's hand and told her: "Martha, somehow, I've come to care for you a lot. I want to know to know. Why do you like me? I know I am not good looking, and I have just loads of freckles." He was stalked, while he watched a woman from afar after a whether people lived on it. "Because you are so natural," he finally said. "You're not the least bit artificial, like most girls I know. You're not the least bit worldly. You are just yourself, and you don't try to be anything else. And do you know, I'm rather fond of freckles, maybe that one on the end of your nose. The next night—it was nearly a month since his first appearance at Eagle Heights—his manner was endangered. He was monoylinables and appeared wrapped in thought. You tell you so very different tonight she asked. They asked on and cause to the steps of the hotel veranda before he answered: "I'll tell you. Today I received word that Elizabeth Ross, the girl I met in college, had to tomorrow. She expects to stay several days, and then I am to go back with her. I hated to tell you." She was sobbing to her bed, where she was sobbed herself to sleep. He went on the dock and found a bench and eat smoking his pipe for a full hour, Elizabeth Ross took the place by storm. Stained in clothes that were torn, she wore a white dress, the hotel, greeted Harold with an embrace and a lilies, and complained because the best room was once occupied, the lily had to put up with the second beat. She was a proounced blonde, with a clear, olive complexion and dreamy eyes. She was Harold, and, if anything, slimmer, Watching from behind her desk, the indy clerk had all she could do to keep the tears away, when the news came. "I hate that girl!" said Martha, and she meant it so much she broke the point of the pen when she jabbed it on the potato that served as a holder. Martha's feelings toward Elizabeth Ross were not improved by an incident which took place the day after she was born. Her older sister, liked to be friendly with all the guests, and he tried to be with Miss Ross when the latter ascended the steps to the veranda after a walk with her sister. Did Miss Ross stop and put Knight as he frisked about her? Decidedly she did not. Instead, she kicked him with her dainty foot, and Knight went his way. She left his legs, surprised and mortified. Came the day when Harold and his bride-to-be were to leave. Martha had her eyes open for a last glimpse of her sister through a window, coming toward the hotel, in company, with Miss Ross. They were talking earnestly—at least, the girl was—and Martha roared that there might be some kind of dispute. Slowly the sun crept out of sight behind the wall of Wallow lake, leaking gold and blue. In a secured dell, fringed with faintly rustling maples, stood a freckled-faced, padded-girl one arm against a tree, her gaze long and dark, lazily fawning a path through the placid water. A shrill piercement the sky as a stern circling overhead, spied a dinner and swept down to snatch it from the blue. The little boat plugged steadily onward, the sound of its exhaust carried distinctly on, the shimmering on the shore at the girl's feet. From the hotel cave the phonograph notes of a jazz, band melody, and patted the animal on the white dog, which stopped snapping at a fly long enough to caress the hand with his tongue. The dog was on its own that boast," And she turned the animal's head toward the gery, which just uttered a hearse blast and glided behind a point that shunted Tears could not keep from them. Tears could not be kept from Martha's eyes, and Knight sniffed as though they were crying, too. "Now you're my only Knight," she told him. Something rustled behind them and the dog growled as he sprang toward the sound; but the growl was smoother and his tail began to wag furiously. Martina looked and her eyes met those of Harold Kingley, standing with his hands in his coat pocket, a knife in his hand. For a moment Martina was too astounded for words. "Why, why—I thought you and Miss Rose left on—left on that boat," she said. "I was taken away after he reached and picked a leaf from a tree, and crumpled it in his hand. "You thought right, partly," he said. "Miss Ross is on that boat, but we—we were on the boat, we made a show—after she kicked this little dog, and so things are—they are different now. You see, she's one of the artificial kind; and I rather like that kind, and his tail, the plain—yea, the freckled kind." "BUCK UP" AND KEEP GOING World Has Little Use for Man Who Wastes His Time and Theirs Talking Hard Luck. "Had luck never comes singly," is an old proverb and an untrue one. Its falsity lies in the word luck. A man in old hands hand him the blood blow and claims the fact that something has gone wrong. Men are so busy at their own affairs in the world, so engrossed in them that they have set out to do, that a hanging head and a dismal countenance as a rule only serve to send them on faster than their business, what is wrong. They are apt unwittingly to toilstone anyone who stumbles in their path. But let the man who has incurred one body blow at the door, let him continue his course aggressively, and he will find that those about him are as ready as ever to greet him. He will not be jostled because he is not in danger, and players have been badly bruised when they were holding off because they felt a bit tired). And how sold is him one who he burhs himself full tilt into the opposite of life? The same rule applies to life. First Fresh Air Crank Methuselah was the first real fresh air crank, according to the version presented by Dr. Vincent Y. Bowditch of Boston. The reason why Methuselah lived so long, he said, was that he had to breathe fresh air that could he and that live on a day and night. Hippocrates, the early carys physician, recommended fresh air as a cure for many diseases, and a number of ancient and modern writings in medicine follow this suggestion. Benjamin Franklin, in an article written in 1776, extolled the virtue of fresh air and emphasized how easy it was to prolong one's life by living in the open. **Stafffish.** Stafffish have a considerable power of reproducing lost parts, a single arm having been known to grow up into a new stafffish.

The reversion to peace is welcomed by most men, but there is a group in the army and navy posted as deserters who must be uneasy in their minds. Desertion in the army implies absence without leave for 22 days, and entails a court-martial if the individual is reclaimed, says a writer in London Answers. In time of war it was a serious business, and a man risks his life almost as much by running away from danger as by running into it. But in peace times there is sometimes an element of humor in desertion from the forces. Men run away for such trivial reasons, sometimes merely to join another unit. Men desert chiefly because they are daily confronted by irritating restrictions, personal animosity of superiors or for private reasons. Sometimes an attractive uniform like that of a lancer regiment will seduce an infantryman. I have in mind a corporal who was chased by military police in Aldershot two years after the desertion, one of the M. P.'s having known him in his former unit. A man still living left the navy in a hurry in 1874. An officer had called him a liar, a charge he countered with his fist, for which he was placed in irons. A fire on board that night gave him his chance. He roamed Australia until his ship went out of commission, when the charge automatically laspect. Discontent with existing conditions is a frequent cause of a man break-in. He held an army skilled trade certificate was deputed to examine applicants for special enlistment in that branch. He prepared the tests and examined the results. Those who qualified were created staff sergeants a week later, with pay amounting to four times his own. Those who were turned down, as he was a regular. While on leave he deserted, joining another regiment immediately, and after 18 months in Salonihe he was discharged. He an assumed name with heart trouble. A kindly C. O. has been known to give an incribable a few days' leave to a sovereign, with the advice to himself—in the rainy times of peace. Chinese Foundling in Lusk A Chinese baby named Anna Michaelson became Anna Lee Chin Wore, legally adopted daughter of Chin H. Wore, wealthy proprietor of a New York restaurant, by order of her parents. Incidentally the story of how the child was saved from death in infancy and acquired the surname by which she has been known, was disclosed. Ten years ago Patrolman Michaelson was sent to the police station, his attention was attracted by the piercing wall of an infant. In an alley ash barrel he found the Chinese child, in no suit of clothing, and blue pants. He waffled in the waffle in his overcourt and took her to the police station, whence she was later taken to the New York Foundations home. At about the same time she was protesting in business, and his white vistee visited the institution in search of an infant for adoption. Their hearts went out to Anna Michaelson, and they took the child home—the first family legally adopted in New York county. Sewer Swallowed Auto. During a recent heavy rain a considerable area of a well-paved Philadelphia greet suddenly cawed in. swollen water had just stopped at the curb. The owner of the car stepped from it only a few seconds before it dropped into a hole in the front brick sewer, flooded beyond its capacity, was the cause of the failure of the pavement. A second heavy rain another rush of water through the broken drain. Although a guard was pomply thrown about the opening, the crushed sewer, entirely disappeared without leaving a trace either in the sewer $ \alpha $ in the creek which rejoined it from a popular Mechanics Magazine. May Be Life on Venue From what we know of the surface conditions and climates of the various members of the solar system, Prof. Swan; Arribas concludes that the climate of the earth where life is possible, Venus has a dense, warm atmosphere of high humidity. With everything dripping wet, life near the equator should be cooler than in the tropics, and count of the uniform climate and lack of need for specialization; but newer the pores the climatic diversity is greater, suggesting a more varied desert climate. The atmosphere makes life on Mercury and the moon impossible. Mars, too, must be uninhabitable with a temperature averaging about 37 degrees G. below zero and scarcely rising to freezing temperatures. The moon, the planet, and its water supply is small.

Seats will be reserved for meet-up # CAREER EXAMINATION "She says Miss Wiggin sent her and she said to give you this," drawn the small office boy to Stanley Higgins, in the middle of what seemed to said Mr. Higgins the business morning of the day. "The Lord knows it's time she sent some one, but why did she annoy me this morning?" retorted Higgins. "No, don't tell her to go; bring her in." He had no time to examine the added word in the script. He had brought by way of recommendation, but the large sepiated-tone photograph, apparently the worse for frequent handling, opined that it and the recommendation into a drawer of his desk. He bearded and the office boy hesitated on the threshold to see whether this meant that Higgins wanted him to stop. "No, go on," shouted Higgins. The whistle had been the natural result of the silence, which showed the original to be a full, slender blonde, with a figure that mingled the litheness of a nymph with the symmetry and perfection of a D- Especially was this true of the arms, which were generously displayed in the picture, though the voluminous arm was not as large as obliged to guess the beauty there concealed. Higgins had never heard of sending in a picture as part of an application. She wanted it, but it wasn't a bit more than it had been more appropriate, he thought to send a picture as the young woman would appear in business—or did she want it to be a more answerable in a minute more she answered the question for herself. She did not, but she was as lively and as Dianseau in the heat street suit, suit just a little too big. "Miss Wiggin sent me—" began the girl, looking searching around the office as if missing something that he had expected to find. She had time to say, "It's high time she did send you," was Higgins rejoinder. "I don't see any reason why you shouldn't handle the job, do you?" The girls arm are just a little too short," she said; but "that perhaps doesn't matter with the work you have for me. In the fur concern where I was once it didn't matter, but Miss Higginas looked up in surprise, then laughed, "Oh, that all right," he said. The idea that there would be a control operator amused him. "Why do you do to make it necessary to have her arms measured as one would for a control operator amused him." Why do you do to make it necessary to have her arms measured as one would for a control operator amused him. "Not entirely," said the girl, blushing in spite of an effort not to. "But you see—well, in my kind of work it might be, and—well, if I do my work well I don't like to go to out dinner with the buyers. You wouldn't expect me to do that, would you?" Gasping, he gasped Higginas. Assuredly none of the government agents who came to place orders for motors in the concern for the safety of the young woman any disposition to take the young woman clerks out to dinner. He assured her that she would not be expected to do that sort of thing. He made yourself generally useful for a day or so," he said. In spite of the fact that he was complaining of Miss Wiggs's delay in sending the filing cabinets in to the system, he had in mind had not come Daphne Drew—for that was her name—was ready to work at her desk when she surprised when he told her to begin by arranging the papers in the drawers of his desk so that if they were not there she could see she she could at any time find anything that the desk contained, she went about the work with a will. Higgins and she worked as hands as they worked over the papers. They were not awkward at their task—hands that could never be awkward at anything—but assuredly they were not. Higgins found himself watching them as they hovered over the papers. He began to despair himself as better fitted to c violate or rosen. Only once or twice he allowed himself to glance from the hands to the desk, and then he himself to see whether he was actually awake; later he wondered whether he really liked the ideas of having such a companion during business hours. He had always complained because of the rather plain exterior of the room, and he had to work for him. Now he wanted that it was better than that way. Still, the beautiful one worked silently on. Yer had to expect the kind of confidence and deumure if beauty of the type could ever be unobtrusive or deumere. Still the filing cabinet did not come. One had to expect such delays, the fact that he had to go on making tasks for the past to perform. He sent to a clipping bureau for a file of clippings on this occasion.

Munger Avenue Baptist Church. We are still alive, and are just motors in which he had no interest whatever so that he could get her to file them, and he sent to their own cataloguing department for a duplicate file of catalogues, mixed them all up and kept her busy a day making a card index for them. She was not amazingly swift, but she seemed to possess initiative enough to go ahead with her work without asking any questions. She really did say almost nothing, only occasionally Higgins would see that look of wonder come into her deep gray eyes as she glanced about his office with the look she had given the day she first came, as if searching in vain for something she did not find. By the time the filing cabinet had come Daphne had been there ten days, and Stanley Higgins had missed as many good nights' sleep. The question had presented itself to him almost from the first. She was the most beautiful and most lovely woman he had ever seen; there was no question about that. The question was, having found such a creature, was there anything to do about it but what men naturally did to it? He asked to be fortunate to murry her? By the tenth day he had decided that there was but one answer to the question. If she refused, then she would have to leave home and mind to ask her bluntly whether she would have him. He was far too busy to go about it with the usual dailying and too tenuit to brook further demean. He arrived earlier than usual the morning of the day when he planned to make his plea, and, as if to steady himself, he glanced at the picture from the desk where he had put it the first day. Attached to it was the recommendation that had come from Miss Wiggin which he had given to her. He glanced at it, first casually, then gripping the paper, read with bated breath the slip which, with printed blanks filled in, ran something like "Height, 5-6, coloring, natural blonde, dark gray eyes, size foot, 5 but shrunely; gloves, 6¼, but slender; short, dark hair; short, short. Willing to pose for cloaks? Yes. Furs? Yes. Hats? Yes. Lingerie and corsets? Definitely not—can't be persuaded. Reason is that the maker wants place where doesn't have to meet buyers socially. So preoccupied was Stanley Higgins who told me in this sheet that he did not recall that the original of the brief description was standing before him. He hoped you would never read that," she said. "I realised after the first day that a mistake had been made, and I went to Miss Wiggin. I found there that they had sent me to the office, and I went to a filing clerk did not you? And I was a model. "I didn't know I could make money like that, but I did much better—I didn't want you to know. You see, when we go to get places as models, they are only for a little while. The season is short—and I don't like it. I don't like things like that. Then if it looks like what the concern wants they take time to talk to us. Otherwise they send us. I hope it won't make a difference." Higgins had not expected to lead up to his proposal so early in the morning. He had planned to wait till afternoon, but this seemed his best chance to get the man he blurted out, "when I want you to be my wife." He seized the dazzling Diana creature in his arms, "Daphne, girl, I am distracted about you," he said, and as the "six-and-a-half hand" he insisted in his knew that his mate was won. Distance Lende Enchantment Tifton Towers was a white elephant—so far as the estate agent was concerned. But this time it really did look as if he were going to do a deal little. The little Mr. Brown and his wife had trumpeted weightly round the estate, the agent at their heels. "There are stories for you!" cried the latter. "There's country I! I tell you, sir," he added, waxing eloquent, "there isn't a finer residence on earth than this! Just look at the wonderful room." "The scenery's all right," glomely responded little Mr. Brown, who was looking for a home. "The only trouble to my mind is that there's too much of here and my office in the city." Reforesting in France Percival R. B. Ridgeline, secretary of the American Forestry association, recently sent for France, where he will be visiting the region to reforest devastating territories. He will concur with officials of the French government upon his arrival in *Varna* on May 16. The forest is seed, which is believed to be suited to French climate and soil conditions. He will visit the north and a quarter of forest in the north and east of France had been used during the war to provide timber, buildings, barracks, roads and huts.

Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler tells a story about how an American business man solved the bobbiehole problem by writing a letter to his affairs. The Columbia university president says he has it directly from the American concerned. Here it is. An American, head of a large firm in Petroglenn, branch of an American company, wrote to his boss pondering on how he could close up the business and discharge his Russian employees without causing trouble. "I was thinking all the chance of doing more business," as he was thinking over the problem the door opened and three of the "All right," said the manager, "that seems to be the custom here. What do you want me to do?" "We want you to double our wagers." "All right. Everybody would like double wagers." "We want a month instead of two weeks' vacation a year." "That's fine. I myself like a month's vacation." "For the month's vacation we want the pay double again." "Now, I never thought of that. But now that I do it's true that on a vacation it is nice to have a lot of money." "Now that those things are decided we must tell you that we need you as manager any more." "I certainly never thought of that. But in the stockholders in the United States. This will never do." "We thought of that. Too about the stockholders. So we have decided to elect a manager and to have him sit here with you and tell you what to do." "Now that will be fine. That's all right. We do that." So the manager was elected and he occupied a desk next to the American and told him what to do. At that time the wages were doubled. The Soviet manager presented a memorandum to the American. "That's this!" said the American. "This is my bill for my salary as manager," explained the Russian man. "No, I can't pay that. You see, I am paid by the stockholders in America. I am elected manager by them. You see, I am paid by the workmen here in Petrograd. You must be paid by them." "Oh, no!" The men struck at the order of their soviet manager. And the American closed up the offices and returned to America. His problem and been solved without any loss of the only the loss of an extra week's wages. A Good Decoy. An officer of the medical department was paying his first visit to the frontline trenches. A corporal from Mitsubishi Electric was gaged in the pleasant pastime of sniping at whatever there was to snip at. The doctor wandered by an open loophole in the parapet. The doctor sniped at a German sniper across the Nazi Lnd. "Whang--plooye!" The bullet came whizzing through the loophole and with a naughty third snuck mud right on the doctor's new trench coat. The officer sniped at the Deep silence reigned for ten seconds. Then the doctor picked himself up from his hands and knee and asked: "Did you get him, corporal?" "Did you get him, corporal?" "But if you'll just walk by that loophole again I'll sure get him next time."
