Washington, D. C. Dec. 29-Dr. John A. Kenney, Medical Director of the John A. Andrew Memorial Hospital at Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, has just written a letter to President Durham of Howard University stating: "This letter and enclosure will remind you that a year ago I took out a Five Hundred Dollar Policy on my life payable jointly to the Mahrty Medical College and The Howard Medical School. This was not at all satisfactory to me, but it was all that I felt that I could do to achieve the goal of making it advisable that I have now seen my way clear to raise this to $1,000, thus placing $600 with Howard Medical College and $600 with the Mahrty Medical School. I agree to keep up the annual premium on this policy and trust that you will secure the future. I am pleased to have a new interest in the work in which we are engaged and in the work of medical education for our group, also I hope that it will be of some little encouragement to you in the great work that you are doing."

Details of the transaction could not be obtained in time for publication. It was learned, however, that the largest amount of cash ever paid in one sum, in a business transaction between the Company and the United States, was $1.00. C. H. M. M. Cox, and M. B. Burnett, which amount aggregated the total sum of One Hundred Twenty Thousand ($120,000.00) Dollars. Heman E. Perry, President of The Service Company, with his associates, J. A. Robinson and W. H. King, were in Memphis representing The Service Company in closing the deal. The transaction was handled through the law firm of Metcalf & Metcalf. The Company is one of the largest insurance organizations operated by Colored people, with total insurance in force around Twenty Million ($20,000,000.00). Dollars and assets of more than a Half Million ($500,000.00). Dollars, giving employment to over 8x Hundred (400) young men and women of the Race. The Service Company is an organisation owning and controlling fourteen (14) of the largest Negro enterprises in the country, with combined responsibility of nearly 7x Hundred (75,000,000). Dollars. Its principal office is in Atlanta, Georgia. Among the organizations is The Service Realty Company, which is building now a large number of homes for Colored People. The Atlanta press has recently given much publicity to this phase of their activities. It was learned that their intention is to make Memphis one of the important centers of their operations. The President on Lynching By Williams Pickens (For the Associated Negro Press) President Coolidge has spoken well, his hardiness had spoken upon Lynching and, yes, we all know that. What we want now is performance, performance, performance, performance, and we are against our new anti-Lynching bill or any other other immoral tattoes are employed against it, will President Coolidge power, urge and order his Republican followers to stand by their guns and fight the battles of this bill to finish it. We are in the bye-bye phase of the mouthings of the Underwoods and the brazen bullies from other parts of the South. In the question: We do not need that any President should tell us how laid is Lynching. We know that already. We rechkd it before he did. Give us performance. our race, and we should do our part in helping to sustain them. "Someone has figured that at the present rate at which Negro physicians are trained and from which we are two or three generations before we would have Negro doctors. We have on numerous occasions through this work that forms made earnest plea for the support of these two schools. We renew at this time this appeal. The Million Dollars at Dispense of The Two Schools in "Without feeling it, we could easily place, in the next twenty years, a million dollars at the disposal of these schools; and to do this, we are asking one thousand of our professional men and women to take out a thousand dollar twenty-payment life insurance policy payable to these institutions, obligating themselves to keep up the premiums. This would be a very small thing for us to do, and yet what a tremendous amount of encouragement it would be, not only to the heads and workers in these schools, but to the philanthropists who would undoubtedly be induced to lose their purse strings by reason of the effort which we ourselves are making." The writer, in keeping with his appeal to others, has taken out a five hundred dollars policy in one of our large insurance companies for each of the two schools. Howard and Mahry, sending a policy to each with his pledge to keep up the premiums. One thousand each out of the five thousand professionals which we have, would furnish the million dollars above referred to, and we are earnestly requesting and urging that the other nine hundred and ninety-nine come forward. May we with the next publication of this Journal be able to publish at least twenty names, or even more of those who have agreed to take this practical and helpful step?"

Made the victim of a broadsheet of the daily press city, the Douglass Bank, the bank of the Douglass national bank in existence, of which Anthony Overton is president, the bank from all connection with an institution, the local dailies to a retraction of former news stories, and the exoneration of the bank from all connection with an institution, which caused by an investigation directed by Sheridan A. Brusseluse, president of the respective Agency, resulted in a sensation here made to the effect that 758 investors had swindled of half million dollars in the Admiral Oil Company of this city when it was the only company to have had the money he had skipped town and that one other important officer was "dead."

Mr. Ovetton gave the following public explanation: "Bonds and Stocks of the Bank, which was named the Dauphin, December 1211, the Douglas National Bank was chartered June 27, 1922, and my connection with the institution has been long. The motors of the financing corporation and the other company involved used the name of the bank. When they did so, Mr. Ovetton was president or any of its other officials.

The open bid of Northern Democrats for Colorado has been made to compensate to the necessity of doing some practical things, as endearer to win back to favor the element of the vote. The state has been regarded as an unquestioned asset. The measure of the task is not under estimated on either side. The measure has been marked by a great movement of Colored America from the South to the North. During mid-summer the condition beaten out by the war has been in leading daily newspapers of the South, to both warts and warn Colored America of the southern states, inter-racial conferences were held, and frank expressions were given on both sides in a demonstration of respect and guarded as being almost in the midst of racial injustice, the statement was respectfully hold, and had wide appeal. Nevertheless, the people have continued to comen, and the end is not yet over. During the latter part of the year, the workers, it seems, have found a permanent place in Northern industry. The workers, in groups and programs are being worked out along a delicate line calculated to provide welfare work, housing and otherwise. Strict measurement by the workforce, off foreign immigration has placed a certain emphasis on the need for there is serious desire on the part of the majority of those who have come North to be familiar, law-abiding and law-compliant. RELIGIOUS LIFE—The religious life of Colored America is one of the "glory of the past." It is one of the group. The year has found interest in religious worship on the in-ground and in the unseen unity of action, and denominational lives have almost ceased to be a handshake. "We believe it to be our imperative duty to cultivate in both race, essex and the common home and in school, much attitudes of good will and mutual helpfulness that we have been taught to yield to a wholesome faith in our common humanity." Of women have been organised in nearly all the southern states for cooperation with state inter-communities and denominational and glove bodies in the interest of better race adjustments. true especially among the Methodist bodies, where the unification program has almost reached the stage of actuality. It is predicted by many that another year will see the re-union of the Baptist factions which have been formed in the past. Episcopalopalces, Catholic, Congregational, Presbyterian and other smaller religious organizations, have demonstrated their commitment to the two major denominations, in seeking to be of real service to mankind. There has been considerable construction of the new educational programs with satisfaction that in nearly all instances there has been open effort to make the "old time religion" a practical reality. EDUCATION - Education keeps the same general program of the people. The South is doing more than ever before, yet in many places it is by no means erected, and terms are being lengthened, while teachers are given on increase of salary. It is obvious that the education program for Colored youths South is due to the migration which has taken North so many substantial families of the South to education and college spirit are on the increase. It is noted here that the "college spirit" as exemplified in the desire to know more about the advantages of college training.

Washington, D. C., Dec. 28—The Republican national convention of 1924 will be composed of 1,110 delegates and an equal number of alternates.

One District Delegate from each Congressional District 2. One District Delegate from each Congressional District casting 100.000 votes or more in the last preceding presidential election or for the Republican nominee for Congress in the last preceding presidential election. (c) Alternate Delegates legate to the national convention. In arriving at this basis there was some division of opinion in the committee questioned the question as to whether every congressional district should be given one delegate regardless of its own congressional district should be fixed a minimum vote which the Republicans in any district must not before they are entitled to even attend an extended debate, the committee decided by an almost unanimous viva district delegates upon the basis ment of district delegates upon the basis congressional district polled members of 10,000 Republican votes in the last presidential election should be an increased additional delegate.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF PARTY; "THE RISE LINCOLN Chapter Four While the attention of the nation, North and South, was centered on the bitter struggle in Congress over the repeal of the Missouri compromise and the problems growing out of it there was slowly coming to the front in the political life of Illinois, a man who, when the fateful hour had struck, was to prove himself the savior of the nation. That man, it need hardly be said, was Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was born in Hardin county, Kentucky, in 1809 and his early life was full of the usual hardships and privations of the pioneers. In 1816 the Lincoln family went to Spencer county, Indiana, remaining there until 1830 when the elder Lincoln removed to Decatur, Illinois. The younger Lincoln walked the entire distance of two hundred miles through mud and water, driving a four-ox team. Then father and son built a log home in the wilderness of Illinois. Four years after this, young Abe set out to study law and a few years later he opened a law office in Springfield. Every school boy knows now of the tremendous sacrifices he made and the difficulties he overcame in getting an education. Lincoln's early experiences led him to abor slavery. After he was elected to Congress in 1846 he voted at PRICE FIVE CENTS Presented Handsome Purse at Waco When Delegation Elects Leaders to Louisville Meet. By R. S. Jenkins.

Senator Douglas, the author of the Kansa-Nebraska bill, halled from Illinois a political battleground. Lincoln and Senator Douglas first met in political clash at the Illinois state fair in 1864. Senator Douglas made an exhaustive and eloquent address in favor of his bill and Lincoln answer made a propounding day. His speech made a propounding day. Senator Douglas felt called on to respond the next day. Two weeks later Lincoln made a second reply to Douglas and Lincoln were counted in November it was found that Lincoln and his anti-Nebraska friends had won the election. A successor was to be chosen to Senator Shields, who was Douglas' colleague, and Lincoln's colleague was Douglas. The legislature went into joint batel.

COPPER DRAGON OF BEFFEROI Twelve-Foot Weather Vane in Gent Celebrates Its Five Hundred and Forty-Sixth Anniversary. The Copper Dragon of Befrol, in Ghent, has just celebrated its five hundred and forty-sixth birthday on the top of its lofty perch on the Befrol, over 300 feet above the ground. It is six feet in height and eleven and half-feet in length, measured from the ground to the enormous tongue to the end of its tail. The copper grasshopper atop Funeul hall, Baston, was designed by Schem Drowne, a copersmith of colonial days. Over 180 years old, it has had an interesting history, being presided over by a man who had survived two earthquakes. Perhaps the public tired of gauging the wind by the weather report in next day's newspaper; or perhaps the ornamental possibilities of this new idea in vane design have given a new fillip to the museum and the reasoned institution. Whatever the reason, the weather vane is coming back.

Although the custom is very old, few people realize that bread is extensively used in the making of watches. From very early times it has been the practice to make bread made by kneading fresh bread with water to remove foreign matter from the parts of timekeepers. Curiously enough, there is no known machine that can do the free small parts of a watch from oil and chips of meat as bread dough. After rubbing with the dough, the metal is absolutely clean. Every other minute the machine leaves some of its own fragments on the metal. One of the world's largest factories uses 50 loaves of bread a day for this sole purpose. To the machine the threads which certain kinds of spiders weave are of the utmost value. They are used for bisecting the screw of the micrometer for determining the positions and sizes of the stars, and no substitute for them. The minute strands of this spider's thread are remarkably fine, not exceeding one-fifth to one-seventh of a thousand-sand of an inch in diameter. In comparison, the thread of a silkworm is thick and thick. It is not only the thread of silkworms that makes it so useful, in addition, it is amazing durable. Spider threads can endure great variations in temperature without undergoing any change. In measuring sunpots, when the heat is so great that the lenses are cracked, the spider thread will be unhurted. R. Richard Baslin in *R. Nicholas Magazine*. BELLS WERE SPOILS OF WAR Great Pride Taken by the Belgians and Cities of Holland in Their Carilions. From the Sixteenth to the Seventeenth centuries carilions (sets of bells played by machinery or by finger keys) were often treated as spoils of war in the low countries, and especial havew was wrought at the end of that period when the French invaders suppressed the carilions, and were captured in war sometimes recast into cannon or carried away as trophies, or, again, they were ransomened as a town's most prized possession. When a city bought a carilion it was formally welcomed on its arrival by city officials, and rejoicing the bells were conserved with elaborate ceremony. Men and women of noble rank stock sponsors. Carilions then were, in fact, esteemed an essential part of the useful equipment of a progressive child-admiration of a progressive Netherlands. Their care, their proper playing, their enlargement, were constantly under discussion. Even the referendum was employed to decide questions relating to them. Towns were rwals for prominence in the cartel art, and bell tiers were made to make them deemed citizens of great consequence. --Detroit News.

Citizens of Oak Cliff Heights were thrown into a delia sunshine morning when the badly mutified bodies of Mrs. Elise Clark, an aged Colored Girl, were found lying on the floor cold in death by Thomas Worrith. Mrs. Clark was well known in the neighborhood having lived here a long time. Her assistant crept into the lonely house, and she was killed it is thought, while the old lady slept soundly and murdered her. The murderers accomplished their aim to kill her..... Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon at Bethel A. M. Echurch, after which the body will be taken to Nashville. They will be buried in Tennessee.

An indication of a desire of the National Business League to function at times other than those of its original purpose, releases from the associated Negro Press which bear its name. Choice of information are these which pertains to the League, by concerns owned and operated by Negroes. This is a welcome sign and one which will tend to correct the impression that the League was nothing more than a mutual admiration of which men from various parts of the country each year and told of their success as individuals. And to a large extent, this is the reason these bits of news will hate. But they do not impress us as improvement enough. The League could have a better manager and devise its time and funds, if there are any to a campaign provocative of more con The League must become a potent force which touches and influences man in our group who is engaged in business of any sort. In order that this may be done, conscious and unconscious local league ines in every town in every state where members of our community are involved in projects.

Dr. Kenny has insured his life in favor of Howard University and has been a long-lived other Negro physicians, dentists and pharmacists to do likewise in order that a million dollar emergency room be formed. He is a unique challenge. One that indicates a desire for the program of schools of medicine for our young men far beyond the ordinary, and that requires improvement of these professions are welcome. It is true that that in our schools we are made for it is easily recognized by the general public that the majority of students are woody belied the programs of the science. And the result is that the ministration of others in the profession grows. The other republicable numbers of the profession have also made gifts larger and as acceptable as those of Dr. Kimmy. A public inlearning program of $10,000 to McCherry three years ago by Dr. J. W. Anderson of Dal There can be no doubt that there will be many to accept this challenge and to follow this lesson.

J. Rhoads, principal of the Washington High School, calls attention of the public to the fact that the enforcement of the Compulsory School attendance law begins on Jan. 2 in the following letter to the Express: Editor, Dallas Express, Dallas, Texas. Dear Sir, For fear that there are those among our citizens who are not aware of the fact that compulsory school attendance for this scholastic year, goes into effect January 2nd, I want to kindly ask that you give space in your publication for this letter or an excerpt from it. The law requires that "every child in the state who is eight years and not more than fourteen years old be required to attend the public school—a minimum—of 100 days—each scholastic year." The "100 days" requirement is interpreted to mean "100 consecutive school days" or five school months. Such a excuse is usually offered for irregular attendance are not acceptable according to the law; and employment that interferes with prompt and regular attendance is prohibited. Attendance officers will be employed to enforce the law, but the extent to which it will be effective will depend largely on the cooperation of thoughtful citizens. The parent who is "wise" enough to evade the law is foolish enough to constrain his child to a life of ignorance. It is our hope, therefore, that every child within school age will enter the schools on the 2nd of January and remain until May 30th. Sincerely yours, Joseph J. Rhoads, Principal.

The above is the caption of an article appearing in Collier's, The National Weekly, for December 8. The article was written by W. O. Saunders, a Southern white who has made a survey of the South for Collier, of the exodus from the standpoint of the student who has sought out the facts and analyzed them. And this article frank, in the extreme comes much nearer expressing the real facts than any other which has appeared recently, numerous though they have been. He gives the reasons for the exodus as follows: "It wasn't the boll weevil that sent the Negro on his wild flight north." The boll weevil was only one of many reasons that led to the exodus, the central catalyst that the Negro is a dependable and enduring laborer. (2) The death of foreign labor, due to our new immigration restrictions, compelling the Northern employer to seek a new labor supply. (3) The inability of the South, under the its present antiquated, wasteful, and inefficient methods of agriculture, to pay the Negro the wages that he would need to find educational opportunities for his children. The Negro is flocking north to high wages, entering industries that pay him five dollars to ten dollars day for his work—and pay him cash. To get north and get these wages and educate his children, he is forsaking a land that too often gives him a pitiful dose of corn meal and sorghum, declares him a debtor still to the land and that he owes a rule provides only a three months' school term for his children. We Southerners have tried to fool ourselves into a belief that the Negro was forsaking the South to flee into a field of industry in which he could not compete. This is not true. The Negro is proving himself a more satisfactory day laborer than the lower-class immigrants who have manned the more important industries. He is hard, enduring, and dole—he can understand orders given in English. If the Negro had not proved his worth as a day laborer, the South would not be sending for him and paying his transportation. Again, we have been fooling ourselves with a lot of talk about the hard conditions confronting the Negro in the North. Our newspapers are full of it. It is mostly twaddle. I have see Negroes swarming in the most wretched tenements in congested districts of Northern cities. A white man would shudder to set foot in many of the places in which Negroes live in Northern cities. But they are not worse than the cabins in which so many of these Negroes are living. These things are true. And the fact that the bodies of many thousands of our people will find a final resting place in graves well outside of the confines of Dixie may be traceable to the conditions as they exist in Dixie. What will the South do in the face of facts as are these by Southerners who really know and have an interest in the Southland? Will it continue its practices of urging the Negro to go by continued peonage, lynching, disfranchisement, etc., or will it in behalf of its own interests financial and economic, seek to impress? For in the final analysis it is the South—not the Negro that suffers most from the conditions that force him to leave. THE N. A. A. C. P.

Liberia is a Negro republic of western Africa, on the upper coast of upper Guinea. It was founded by the American Colonization Company.

HEALTH & HYGIENE A SOLUTION TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AS SEEN BY RACE FINANCIAL WIZARDS. By the above term is meant the acute inflammation of the middle ear, the acute symptoms terminating with the formation of pux. The inflammation involves the musculos membrane of the ear drum, eustachion tube and mastoid cells. In the majority of instances perforation of the ear drum occurs causing the pux to run from the ear. Generally the disease is the result of a cold or some accident, or the affection may occur as a complication during other diseases as diptheria, scorlatina or scarlet fever, smallpox, measles, typhoid fever, syphilis or tuberculosis. The purulent type of middle ear disease is very common in children. Rotten teeth and naso-pharyngeal disease are predisposing causes. This affection at first is the result of the infection of only one germ, but without proper treatment, this germ soon receives the help from other germs to do his damage to the ear, often ending in severe complications of the mastoid cells. The symptoms usually begin, if the disease is primary, with pain in the ear shooting over the side of the head. If there are bad teeth in the mouth the original pain may begin there. Soon there are chills or chilly sensations Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 20—Unified action, long needed, for the economic development of the Colored People of Atlanta, Georgia, the most outstanding group of financial enterprises controlled by Negroes, the African-American Human E. Perry, the captain of industry of the race, who is the genius at the head of the Standard Life Insurance Company, the Company and the Service Company, the triangular group of business enterprises in organizations with which he is connected are determined to see that the Colored People of America occupy a significant part of the economic life of their country. In keeping with his recent statement, the Company and allied interests are dedicated to the cause of uplift and education of the Colored People of Atlanta, Georgia, in their organizations to launch a great publicity program to educate the masses of Colored People to the realities of the economic viewpoint. Perry Says Ultimate Solution of Race Problems Lies in Nation-Wide Of this program Mr. Perry recently said: "I am very anxious that the idea as expressed in the art book of the book, the economic viewpoint, be Dr. W. F. Biddle become a part of the thought of our racial group in America. I am more interested in the solution of our problem must rest upon the foundation of nation-wide economic group in America become saturated with the idea of the economic viewpoint the strides we have made in the development of the insignificance by the comparison with our accomplishments in the future." Larry L. Predicted for Colored People of America The particular thought back of this new program of advertising is the advice given by the Life Insurance Company, The Citizens Trust Company, The Service Company, and this group of business enterprises, NEGRO LEAGUE OWNERS DE- CLARE BLACK UMPS HERE TO STAY Chicago, Ill., Dec. 20. —Appomattox Club, Chicago, was again the scene of the fifth annual meeting of the Negro League in Chicago on Wednesday, sessions Wednesday morning and closed Friday night. The following club owners were in attendance: Antoine Starr, John Tennyson, Giants; John Tenny Blount, Detroit Stars; G. I. Taylor, Indiana Apollo. A. E. Hancock, Kent, St. Louis Stars, and Jim Taymor, Manager of the St. Louis Stars; Joe Rush, Birmingham, Ala., Black Monarchs, Monarchs, and Secretary Glmore of the Monarchs. Vistors to the meeting were: John T. Matthews, Dayton Monarchs, and Secretary Glmore of the Union Giants, and others. The newspaper men attending were Frank A. Young, Chicago Defender; A. D. Moore, Chicago Defender; Al Muncroe, Chicago Whip. Much interest was manifested by all members during the session in the office, and also in the making of the schedule. One solid day was devoted to building up weak spots that have appeared in the league in the operation of of the league. Colored Umpires Here to Stay There is no doubt of the stability of the Colored umpires of the League. The umpires appear to be near in the operation of of the league some of the ones carried last season may be replaced by others, who, in turn, might be replaced by others who are more efficient, but the fact remains that the dark umps are to be replaced by the light ones. Foster instructed club owners to see that players of their clubs did not enter into any violent or unnecessary action, and that this would have a tendency to intimidate the umpires and create a false impression among the fans. Mr. Foster was not curtailed in their kicking on decisions of umpires that it would eventually lead the fans to unjustly criticize the umpires to protest. Appropriate levitation over the body, this is followed by fever which may get very high. The ear can fail a role in the patient suffers very severely until the membrane ruptures, which is followed by instant relief of the pain. The condition that were due to pressure, Infants affected by acute otitis media of this type cry constantly turning to the ear, placing the hand frequently upon the affected ear. The baby has very high pressure. The baby sleeps only under the influence of opiates. Upon inspection the ear drum is often found enormously enlarged. Evacuation of the pus gives instant relief. Generally speaking the ear drum is not affected by any other form of abscess. Hot applications to the ear and parts surrounding the ear, ear douchies and ear pads, are used to cure the pus and as soon as bulging occurs, the membrane should be lanced. Complications should be avoided to be brought to the specialist and should be treated by him. All case of acute otitis media suppurative should be treated with ear treatment to prevent complications. that the Colored People of the United States are destined to take a larger and more important part in America. Enterprises Assure Unlimited Action for Colored People The false and misleading article which appeared in one or two colored newspapers recently regarding the Citizens-Service triangular group of business enterprises apparently only had the effect of strengthening Mr. Perry in his desire to serve the coveted group. The patent falseness of the article was too apparent to the informed who know of the stringent insurance regulations of the Insurance Company operates in the State of Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Texas, Virginia and the District of Columbia. Substantial Financial Backing of Program Provided The Standard Life Insurance Company with assets of over two million ($2,000,000) Dollars, insurance in force of more than Twenty-seventh Million Fine Hundred Seven Thousands ($27,907,000) Dollars, and accumulated reserve around Two Million ($2,000,000) Dollars, and The Citizens Trust Company with a paid-up capitalization of Five Hundred Thousands ($500,000) Dollars, and with deposits of more than Five Hundred Thousands ($500,000) Dollars; The Service Company with assets of approximately Five Million and One-half ($5,500,000) Dollars; all assure the kind of substantial backing necessary to put over the gigantic program of race economic education which is the goal of Mr. Perry has set for these organizations. Despite fault-finding and misrepresenting critics, these figures are demonstrative facts that prove the worth and importance of these concerns. With this great group of financial institutions dedicated to the economic progress of the Negro in America as outlined by Mr. Perry, it will be but an easy task to bring about unified thought and action necessary to make the Race one of the most important factors of the American Citizen's Agency. Mr. Joe Rush, Birmingham-Ala, owner of the Black Barons, made application to the league for membership and was accepted. This wields great power over the west and the south that should go far in making the league the real big thing that was paramount in the league. The league is hoped that in the near future the Eastern section might be prevailed upon to see the futility of separation, when as was stated, it is very poor business for three sections or factions to try to operate successfully to the advantage to all concerned. Birmingham Black Barons will place a club in the league that will without doubt take its place along with the older members, and with the material already secured, club and that which can be secured, there is no reason why the Southern entry cannot prove as good an attraction as other league clubs. Increased Publicity of the League Thrahed. Out The publicity of the league was discussed at length and agreed by all club owners that in the future they would see that their secretaries sent in reports of all games and other matter of interest to the newspapers and the public. It was pointed out that the league was with this specific order during the past season some of the clubs failed to respond and handicapped the league as well as newspapers who were expecting this service. By increasing the scope of the publicity department of the league, during the 1924 season, according to this new arrangement, no fan should be without news of the league, consisting of box scores, pitching, fielding and batting players of the league clubs as well as a weekly standing of the clubs. MISS EYES. SOCIETY SOCIETY & CLUBS M. CONSTANT CARE—NOT LUCK Human history and experience have taught us that many *nonscience* believe that a head of naturally long and beautiful hair, a healthy scalp and a lovely smooth complexion come from luck, but they do not.

Miss Eyes was not invited to the party that was hurriedly gotten up on Monday evening by some of her best friends. Even the she was not there who had any number of friends in the party to be up on all that took place. Miss Eyes could forgive them knowing that the Christmas "spirits" had gotten possession of them if they had confined their pleasure to their set. It was not necessary for two of the young "vamps" to have their married friends join them. The boy's have discussed the same with Miss Eyes and if these young ladies are not particularly careful they will be out in the "cold" all around. Miss Eyes is sure that most everyone is glad that Christmas comes but once a year and especially some of the young men who I avished expensive gifts for their "sweeties." Miss Eyes said one young man make the remark that he was caught unexpectedly this year but promises that the same "bee wont sting him twice." How can that professional man give his "sweetie" such expensive gifts. He really dressed her up this Christmas and Miss Eyes is wondering if she isn't afraid "little wifey" might get the least bit jealous and start a snatching party. If she did Miss Eyes promises wifey SOCIETY & Diamond Charity Club—The club will hold a business meeting, Dec. 27th, at the club center. State and Washington.

He didn't know which one to ake to the dance so he decided that the best thing to do would be to stay in the crowd and really "runnin' wild" and Miss Eyes was glad to see that he had enough sense to have been accounted for. He never pays to ask both because sometimes they both may decide to accept that they have been accounted for. She man in town, don't you? Well then, you know Miss Eyes is talking about. "Suffed" she said. She mine strong and often or not at all." This statement caused her more real trouble than she anticipated at the time it was made. She was not strong enough this week and Miss Eyes believes that from now on she will not be so particular about the number she takes in. She will stay hard with young flappers sometimes and Miss Eyes believes this particular man will stay off for some months to come. CLUBS Mr. F. J. Prather, 2009 Thomas Avenue.

Snaunding, one of the largest figures in Negro business in the country, are giving him solid support in his fight against C. C. Arnold, vice president of the Southern Tariff Association. Arnold is a midtown have invited Snaunding to become a member of an honorary group which would oppose movements in the present congress to enact legislation intended to southern produce. After Mr. Spaulding had consented that his name might be used, and had refused an invitation to a quasi-social affair, it was learned by Arnold that Spaulding is a Negro, president of the Mechanics and Farmers Bank of this city and Raleigh; President of the North Carolina Life Insurance Company, chairman of the executive board of the National Negro Business League, and a member of the Southern Interracial Commission. In fact, it turns out that Mr. Spaulding, though a Negro, is all mixed up in money and in a first rate position to join in just such a fight as had been outlined by Arnold. Spaulding has admitted his willingness not to serve with the commission, but is unwilling to confess that he did anything wrong in accepting the invitation, claiming that the people he represents need just protection as organizations similar to the Southern Tariff Association afford, and meeting the declaration from Arnold that "White and Black" do not mix in the South, with the response that they do join hands for economic, civic and welfare improvement in North Carolina. Arnold asserts Spaulding did wrong by not letting him know he is a Negro when he accepted the invitation to join the group "opposed to congress." THE DALLAS EXPRESS PUB. CO.

Wild turkeys use their wings more than is supposed; for going to and coming from the roost; when disturbed; often to come together from considerable distances; when changing their positions; when they will fly into tall trees apparently just to spy out the land. In mountainous country turkeys do a good deal of sailing down long slopes. This wild wolf can fly up to 100 feet in flight downward and the rush of the wind through these nakes a sound like a howling snailpel. The speed is terrific, and it is checked by the birds in the forest. The fence is the most ground. On several occasions I have attempted to time such flight, having the birds in full view and knowing approximately the distance covered. Unless my estimate was wrong, I would have been down a two-mile mountain slope in a shade over a minute and a half. Another fly of about three miles, including a dip to a distant fence, seemed to be the most such speed, under the circumstances, is not extraordinary when we remember that a green-winged teal, along a straight river reach, has been at times flown at the bank of a Bibbins lake at one insurance policy they carry against extermination. The case of the wild turkey is exciting in its promise. Here is a great bird for long in many states on the East Coast, but not in all in his regal stature. Nor is the mere killing of him the only sport that his return affords. His presence once more in our forests invests them with the spirit of primal wildness that no animal can ever evade. -Archibald Rutledge in the New York Independent. EXCHANGED PIPES FOR LAND Three Hundred Were Part of the Price William Penn Paid for Tract in the Province of Pennsylvania. Pipes in the Seventeenth century were largely made in Holland of pipe clay imported from England—to the disgust and loss of English pipemakers. In 1863 the company of tobacco-pipemakers petitioned parliament to forbid the export of tobacco pipe clay, since by the manufacture of pipes in Holland and their trade was much damaged. The company's request was granted, but in the next year it again found it necessary to go to parliament, showing their threatened rule because cooks, bakers and ale-house keepers and others made pipes, but so unskilfully that they were brought into disleaseem, and requesting that none be allowed to follow the trade who had not been apprentices seven years. During the latter part of the Seventeenth century English pipes were presented by colonists in America to the Indians. They subsequently became valuable as objects of barter or part-purchase value in exchange for land. In 1867 120 pipes and 100 jews-harps were given for a strip of country near Timber Creek in New Jersey. William Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania, purchased a tract of land, and 300 pipes were included in the articles given in the exchange. The Rule. The toll-gate keeper in a certain section of Alabama is an aged darky.

It's bent an' de county's got a strict rule again our takin' mutilated coins.” “Indeed?” said the farmer. “Well, let me tell you that you gave me that very bent dime yourself in change yesterday!” “May be, may be,” murmured the old darky, “Dere ain’t no rule again my handin’ out mutilated money.

A well-known psychologist has been making a study of laughter, which he says differs in its indication of character by its vowel sound. Those who laugh in "A" he says, or "E" he says, are joyful friends, or their friends, frank in their speech fond of bustle and movement and of versatile character. People who laugh in "E" are selfless, friendly company because they are phlegmatic and have a fierce heart. Most children laugh in "I" and people who continue to laugh in "P" after they have grown to be men and women have childlike qualities. They are kind, patient, and caring. Candid and are always obliquing and ready to work for others. They are apparently not very strong characters. People who laugh on the vowel "O" are often not overtensive. They do not worry about public opinion, and criticism sifts off their backs like water off a duck's. They are generous and humble, in spite of their punishfulness. Few people like laughers in "U." As a matter of fact, these individuals are in their laughter. Life for them has fun and fun and mirth — London Tit-Bita.

Lincoln withdrew, and his supporters went to Trumbull, who Declines Governorship During the year Lincoln, who had been a stammer Whig, decided that he would not be slavvy extension. The new Republican party which was coming into power be the practicable vehicle. Accordingly a meeting was held in Dec. 1916 at the University to organize Republicanism in Illinois. Lincoln attended this meeting and helped to write the platform. He declared that his affiliation with the new party was too recent to make a statement. The meeting adopted a resolution stating a state convention to be held in April 1916. Lincoln was at this latter convention that the republican organization in Illinois was formed from the convention for "Lincoln" and the speeches of his career. Even though Lincoln was known as "Lincoln's Last Speech," he carried away that they stounded their notes and the address came out next day in the Illinois newspapers created a profound impression and a lasting impact on the next day in the Illinois newspapers. Lincoln had said in conclusion: "We will be to loyal to the 'Constitution' and the 'Declaration' of what matter what our grievance, even though Kansas shall come in as a state, we shall restore theirs—even if we shall restore the Compromise—we will say to the Southern disunion, and you shall say to the North. This speech consolidated the anti-fraudery forces in Illinois and made the state a federal state. He was proposed as the party's candidate for President in 1858 and was elected to the thrust him to the center of the stage, and as we have goken, the nomination was unanimously endorsed. When the year 1858 rolled around "Bleeding Kansas" was still a live issue and the Republican State convention was unanimously endorsed. Lincoln as the party's choice to succeed Sena- The Coup of Douglas Douglas, who had lost great popularity in his own state as well as all over the North with his Kansas-Nebraska bill, had regained many of his wavering followers by shrewd political manipulation. The slave-holders in Kansas territory, knowing that the freemen's party was gaining and would eventually make Kansas free territory unless something was done, called a spying war, and drew up the prospedial construction known as the Lecompton constitution. This document legalized slavery in Kansas and provided that the constitution was to be considered adopted, without a vote of the people of Kansas, whenever ratified by Congress. In other worlds, with the aid of Congress the people of Kansas were to be given a slave constitution without having a service to the question of the slave power tried its utmost to put the bill through Congress and a wave of indignation swept over the North. Douglas, quick to catch the popular drift in his own state, denounced the Lecompton convention, throwing his influence for the time against the slave power, and breaking with the Democratic administration as Washington. This materially received his former position in the North and it was rejuvenated and repopularized Douglas who faced Lincoln for the contest of 1858. Douglas arrived home from Washinton on July 9th, three weeks after Lincoln's inauguration, and immediately threw himself into the campaign. He made speeches in many of the primaries, and he was the first time to replying to Lincoln's famous Springfield speech in which the future president said, "A house divided against itself cannot stand. I believe this government cannot endure permanently." He also except the house to fall—but I do expect it will cease to be divided. I will come all one thing or all other." Lincoln in turn answered Douglas and warned, "Finally Lincoln will arm and defend Douglas to debate. Joint meetings were arranged, and the debates of Lincoln and Douglas in the exciting debate." Saxed For a Bigger Battle Even at the time the speeches attracted national attention, and more and more space was given to Lincoln. The feeling gradually grew everywhere that the real champion of the new party had arrived. Cofax, of Ohio, went to assist Lincoln, while Douglas had the advantage of almost the same vote.
