When the "Choo-Choo" Train Leaves for Tolland, Monday, July 14, Get on Board. The Trip will Be a Treat
The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star
H. H. Proctor, pastor of the First Congregational church, colored, of Atlanta, is one of the soundest and most practical of the leaders of the Negro. in a recent sermon he emphasized an idea often advanced by The Constitution, and that is that religion must largely be depended upon to save the race from the perils facing it in common with the white race. In part he said:
Our race today in the midstof its general prosperity needs to take council from the heart of its fathers in the day of tneir adversity. Heart-felt religion is the solution of Jesus for the problem of the races. Both the industrial and literary types of education may be helpful, but the root of the trouble is not in the hands or the heads of the people, but in their hearts.
All this is quite true. The Negro population of ante-bellum days was orderly and law-abiding for two reasons, chiefly 1. The white man's civilization had the power to enforce regulations and restraints it knew to be good for this child race; 2. It was able to enforce and fortify those mandates by kindling religion in the heart of the negro, and it accomplished this latter task by sending missionaries among the negroes. The Sunday school taught by the mistress of the plantation was one of the civilizing influences of the patriarchal era.
With the civil war the white men's first avenue to aid the negro, his power to enforce mandates, was destroyed.
The other resort, that of religion,shouldhave beenmade to do double the duty and gradually to solve, for the nores sake and our own, all the hard dangerous problems that rose out of emancipation and reconstruction. In the old days the negro could be approached and largely controlled by his religious instinct, the cultivation of which in him was comparatively a simple matter. He is even today susceptible to that same influence, but who is exerting it upon him? Mainly his own people, and while they are making substantial headway, they are having only sporadie co-operation from the white race, which is lagely busying itself with Africa and China.
As the Constitution has said: if the Christian churches of this country spent half as much money Christianizing the negroes of America as Christianizing the heathen across the ocean, the racial problem would be materially mitigated. The white man's civilization would today be almost nowhere without its religion. What are we doing to take that constructive agency to the untutored negro, whose inefficiency and disease menace our own system almost as much as his own? Practically nothing.

OFFER REFUSED
A $10,000 Carnegie library has been refused by the Colored people of Evansville, Ind., a committee of them having assured Trustee Edmund L. Craig, who got Carnegie to contribute the $10,000, that they did not desire the library and would do nothing toward raising funds for a site or its maintenance.
Furthermore they told him that they looked upon it as a plan to segregate the Negroes from the whites and that it virtually would bar the Negroes from the other three libraries for white people.
They feel that they want to have the liberties of the libraries on an equal footing with the white people and for that reason are discouraging the idea of putting up the new library to be used exclusively by Negroes with colored librarians in charge.
(Arizona Daily Star,)
Stockholders of the African Land and Irrigation company held a meeting last evening and decided on the erection of a building iu Tucson to be used for headquarters for the company. The company has 150 stockholders in the southern part of Arizona and has been organized a year. The president is C. T. Jones of Nogales.
It was not definitely decided what kind of a building would be erected, but the general idea of the stockholders was for a two-story brick building with the upper part for a lodge room or other public purpose and the lower part for a store and offices for the company. a site has not been decided on as yet, but the plans of the promoters will soon take definite shape it is promised.
The company was organized about a year ago to develop farming lands on the west coast of Mexico. When the trouble came up in Mexico it was deemed unsafe to extend the operations.

DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, JUNE 21, 1913.
The Young Masons
Masonry, the grandest work on earth has for years been the workings of the older men, those of a master mind, and the young members have been content to sit idly by and listen, accepting the ruling, teachings of the older members without a murmur.
Like all things, it is beginning to change, the young men aer taking the field, their educational advantages make them more fitting and under direction of the old war horses who have served most nobly for 40 or 50 years, a high standard in Masonic work will be reached. Last Monday night Rocky Mountrin and Centennial lodges, F. & A. M., held a joint installation, immediately after which Rocky Mountain raised to the sublime degree of a master mason. Mr. L. H. Lightner. The work was done by the new officers, Joseph Monier, Master Carl Wilson, Senior Warden. Spencer Smithea, Junior Warden, Oglesvie Lawson Senior Deacon, C. E. Jackson, Junior Deacon. The old timers confessed that initiation was the most complete and most perfect that they had ever witnessed.
Every young man should seek the secrets of masonry, world wide opportunities await you.
Will Religion Eradicate Prejudice?
(Continued from last week)
I am not crying for social equality, No! No! I deem that unnecessary, but I am asking how long before the Church of God will. These, its masters and servant men. How long before you can rise in dignity of leaders of men, pointers to the only way? How long before you will ask that the love of Christ in men's hearts cleanse out prejudice and permit my people to have equal rights before the law, equal chance to earn an honest living, equal opportunity to be considered and prove themselves men and women, I mean those who by their life and conduct are entitled to the name.
If Christ were black would you worship him? Or would the color of his skin destroy his divinity? Yet he could have been.
There is a retributive justice coming to the white race of America. The yellow fever has it's inception in Africa—Negroes are immune, yet when slaves were brought to this country, the germ accompanied. They have not suffered but thousands of whites have died as the result, of yellow fever, in days to come, you who have the peace and welfare of your people in your hands, you ministers of the great Gospel of Jesus Christ, God grant that you may not be judged by coming generators—as coldly indifferent or self centerd.
There are times when a passive friend is almost as harmful as an active enemy. Are you not likely to be asked the question, Oh! men of inlelegence with every advantage and grace: where is thy Brother the black man? May it not be a part of a great divine plan, this placing the Negro in your midst? It may be to test your humanizing tendencies. Oh! suppose it is and you slight the opportunity to show God and the world, your broad minded Christianity.
Prejudice cannot be legislated out of men, it is in the warp and woof. Nothing less than an entire change of heart will eradicate it. And the Church of God through it's ministering servants must take the lead in teaching men to be just to one another. We as a people are Christians. A greater proportion of Negroes belong to church than any other people in the world—we have souls. Shall ever the crumbs be denied us? And in proportion, we, the citizens of this or any country, permit lynching, and other forms of lawlessness just so will it react. History bears me out in this assertion. No injustice practiced ever brought good results. Not lasting good at any rate. May I invite you to consider this question as vital to national peace and prosperity—It is an arrow aimed at the security of the nation for if unchecked, terrible consequence will result. Politically Sen. Foraker killed himself.
If you were Politicians, I would hesitote to ask your defense, but being Christian ministers, will you rise in defense of an awful evil which is threatening the noblest aspirations and hopes of nearly 00, 000, 000, peaceful true-hearted citizens of this country?
May I urge you to stand with the best men we have in denouncing wrongs against our race? Preach that the religion of Jesus Christ wipes out all malice, hatred and envy yea, removes prejudice from the heart. If you do men will rise up and call you blessed.
Washington, D. C., June 10 Beneath the stately elms on its own campus, high above the city's busy hum, to the tuneful accompaniment of twittering birds, and in the presence of 3,000 friends of the higher aspirations of the colored race, were held last Wednesday afternoon the forty-fourth and best annual commencement exercises of Howard University.
The proceedings of Commencement Day were the culmination of a week of preliminary affairs, which embraced the class day exercises of the School of Theology, College of Arts and Sciences, the Nurse training class, the Normal training Class, the Teachers' College, the Academy, the Commercial College, and the Conservatory of Music. On Sunday the bac
calureate sermon, a surely scholarly effort, was delivered in Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel by President Stephen Morrel Newman. On Wednesday, prior to the exercises on the campus, were held the annual meeting and social reunion of the Howard University Alumni, which held a business session and listened to an admirable address by Issac H. Nutter, L. L. S., of Atlantic City.
After the invocation by Rev. I. N. Ross on Commencement Day, President Newman introduced as the speaker of the day the Hon. Adolph C. Miller, of California, First Assistant Secretary of the Interior, who came as the official representative of the Hon. Franklin K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior who at the last moment found himself unable to be present.
Several New Trustees Are Elected. While the immense audience was gathering and at intervals throughout the program the Howard University Orchestra, directed by Prof. Joseph H. Douglas, discourced choice music. The boxes were filled with the members of the Alumni Association, grouped by class banners. There were representatives of classes as far back as 1872.
Annoucement was made of the election of Andrew F. Hilyey of this city and Dr. W. A. Sinclair of Philadelphia, as members of the Board of Trustees, the former to succeed the late Dr. John R. Francis and the latter to succeed Bishop Benjamin Tucker Tanner of Philadelphia, who has been placed on the honorary list. Dr. Douglas was also chosen a member of the Board, of which Justice Job Bernard is President, George William Cook, secretary, and Edward L. Parka treasurer.

AN AFRICAN PRINCE
AT TUSKESEE
An African prince, heir to a large territory, is a student at Tuskegee and The New York Times has this to say of him: Lattevi Ajaji, a young African prince, is now in Booker Washington's school at Tuskegee. Ajaji is the lineal heir to a kingdom as large as Texas, with a population of more than 3,000,000 blacks; he came to this country to study agricultural. In The Journal of American Folklore Dr. John A. Lomax describes a meeting with this young prince who will soon return to Africa when graduated, with a Texas Negro girl to whom he is now is engaged.
"He came into my room quietly and stood with some embarrassment before me, as erect as a soldier, while I questioned him. Although plainly ill at ease, his dignity was impressive. His eyes met my look squarely, and he gave my questions prompt thoughtful answers. He had not learned to dissemble any more than has a wild animal suddenly taken captive'. "Ajaji's grandfather is the present King of the Yotuba people, who live north of the Gulf of Guinea in West Central Africa."

THE NEW YORK TIMES
MRS. A: M. POPE-TURNBO PROPRIETOR "Poro" College 3100 Pine St. St. Louis, Mo. THE "PORO" SYSTEM of Scalp and Hair treatment is based on the latest scientific and sanitary methods, effecting a healthy scalp thus promoting a growth of beautiful hair.
The "Poro" preparations used in connection with the treatment are made and sold exclusively by myself, having the exclusive right to that name; and I, alone, know the secret of the composition that bears, that name. Our claim has always been that when the hair begins to grow as the result of the use of "PORO," it will continue to do so if only the scalp and hair be kept clean. This sanitary method o. treatment is also having the desired effect in helping to prevent the spread of diseases, for it is a fact that hair in an unsanitary condition carries the germs of disease which often prove fatal to innocent persons coming in contact with them.

Annual Meeting of Medical Association. The annual meeting of the National Medical association will be held in Nashville, Tenn., in August. The organization is increasing in membership very rapidly, due at the present time largely to the host of young men graduates from the various medical schools throughout the country. The committee in charge of arrangements for entertaining the delegates and visitors is hard at work, and the indications are that the attendance at the coming session will be quite large. Dr. C. V. Roman, editor of the National Medical Journal, is creating much favorable sentiment for the meeting through the Journal.

ACTIVITIES OF DR. CREED W. CHILDS
Member of District of Columbia's Board of Education.
RESPECTED BY ALL CLASSES
Successor of R. R. Horner Has Served Capably In Many Positions of Public Trust—Eloquent and Convincing Orator—Ardent Friend of the Public School System.
Washington.—The appointment of Dr. Creed W. Childs as a member of the board of education for the District of Columbia gives general satisfaction to the race. He succeeds Lawyer R. R. Horner, and the term is for three years, beginning July 1.
Dr. Childs is a native of Alabama, but has long been a resident of Washington and has been actively identified with every movement looking to the educational, religious, commercial, social and civic uplift of the people of this community. He has served capably in many positions of public trust.
Perhaps no man in the nation's capital is more widely known, and certainly none is more highly respected
M. B.
DR. CHEED W. CHILDS.
or better loved by all classes. He has been physician to the poor of the District, sanitary and food inspector of the health department and medical inspector of the contagious disease department.
Dr. Childs is a graduate of the medical department of Howard university and is a member of the surgical staff of that institution. He is prominent in the direction of the Medico-Chirurgical society and has been one of its vice presidents. He has been chairman of the medical section of the National Medical association and in 1911 was named for the presidency in a field embracing the foremost physiclans of the country.
He is an active member of the Y. M. C. A., and was of great assistance in raising the funds necessary to insure the erection of the $100,000 home of that splendid institution. He is vice president of the Young People's Society of Christian Endeavor and has always taken a deep interest in the work of the churches, fraternities and social settlement movements.
Dr. Childs is an eloquent and convincing orator and is able to champion a cause before any body of any race with a force and fluency that invariably wins all that is contended for. He was particularly effective in support of the Jones-Works bill in congress, a measure designed to reduce the number of saloons in the District, and by its passage many barrooms and dens of iniquity will be removed from the sections in which our people live in large numbers.
In Dr. Childs the public school system of the District has an ardent friend. He fully understands the needs of the system and knows just how to go about the work of remedying whatever evils may have crept into it and to extend its benefits and enlarge its power for the good of the community.
He is an earnest supporter of the policies of the existing administration, the efficacy of which has been thoroughly demonstrated by the results shown, and will act in harmony with the admirable board to which he has been assigned by the supreme court of the District. He is a lover of mankind; his sympathies go out in a practical fashion to teachers and pupils.
Having practiced medicine in the District for over twenty years, he is familiar with all of the conditions which surround his people and will be in a position to handle the problems of the masses as well as those of the classes and to stand for the highest ideals of school management for the good of white and black alike. Dr. Childs is a substantial citizen, having acquired a generous space in the tax ledger of the District, owning, among other things, a beautiful home and a high power automobile. He has a charming wife and four children.
SOCIAL SCIENCE AT FISK. Announcement of New Features of Study Creates Great Interest. Nashville, Tenn.—Announcement has been made of the social science courses to be offered next year at Fisk university, in this city, and of the plan of the university to co-operate with the Woman's council of the Methodist Episcopal Church South and the Methodist Training school here in developing a social settlement in one of the neighborhoods of this city among Afro-Americans.
Dr. George E. Haynes, professor of social science at Flsk, says that this arrangement of co-operation will give a new impetus and a great outlet for the intense interest of the students in the conditions among the people of the city and will offer them an opportunity to get acquainted with the people and to learn by practice what college education can do to help the masses. He says it will also be a great help in articulating the university with the pulsating practical life of the people and enable it to better train its students for leadership and service. The department offers an introductory course in economics in the junior year for three hours per week and an advanced course in economics in the senior year, two hours per week. In sociology three hours per week will be given to class work and four hours per week to field investigation and practical work.
One of the most interesting features of the department for next year consists of a course in Negro history for the juniors and a course on the Negro problem for the seniors. The history course traces the growth of American democracy in its relation to slavery and the Negro American. It alms to give the student a historical background for his thinking about present day conditions.
The course on the Negro problem is offered to members of the senior class and is a careful study of present conditions in both the country and the city. In this course use is made of all available material on the subject, and in addition to the general class work each student is given some particular topic relating to the economic, educational, social or religious conditions among Negroes for special investigation and report. The course aims to teach the student how to study conditions among Negroes in an accurate way and with a broad humanitarian point of view.
MANNING MAKES KNOWN HIS MISSION IN NORTH.
Former Alabama Lawmaker Tires of Unchecked Political Injustice.
Camden, N. J.—Much interest is being taken here in the work of the Hon. Joseph C. Manning, former member of the Alabama legislature. Having served as postmaster in one of the important towns in his state and having had several years of experience as an editor and lecturer, Mr. Manning has a mass of first hand information concerning conditions in the south as they relate to the well being of Afro-Americans.
In political affairs Mr. Manning is an adept. He has given many years of hard work in an effort to break down the discrimination which exists against the colored citizens of the south with respect to the ballot. His efforts have been sincere, and he has accomplished much good. He has familiarized himself with every phase of the political, social and educational work of his section and is regarded as an authority upon the south and its treatment of Afro-Americans in respect to their civil and political rights. He gives the south due credit when it is in the right and condemns it when it is in the wrong.
Mr. Manning says that his purpose in the north is to acquaint the northern people with the facts as to the present political conditions in the south. It is his intention to engage in a thorough discussion of the suffrage question as it affects the whole people. In 1894 Mr. Manning was at the head of a movement which resulted in some forty Democratle congressmen losing their seats in the national house of representatives in 1896.
The unseating of those forty congressmen caused a situation to arise which had to be met in the open. The recently devised disfranchisement laws resorted to by the Democrats were not enacted to get rid of the colored voter, but to aid the cause of minority government in the south through the elimination of sufficient white as well as colored voters to cause the opposition to become a minority party.
Mr. Manning said that of 200,000 blacks of voting age in Alabama but 3,000 of that number were permitted to register and vote.
"The effect of this system on elections in twelve southern states may be perceived when we realize that the entire delegation in congress from the south was elected on 900,000 votes." Mr. Manning said, "whereas there are 6,000,000 males of voting age in these states and 4,000,000 of them whites."
New Book by Dr. Algernon B. Jackson. One of the latest tracts on medical treatment is an interesting and instructive pamphlet recently written and published by Dr. Algernon B. Jackson, surgeon in chief of Mercy hospital, Philadelphia. The little book is being given general circulation by leading physicians. Dr. Jackson is well known for his scholarly attainments and general interest in movements for the good of the public along all lines.

The rendition of St. John's Eve by the Choral Club in such a close proximity to the celebration of St. John's Day by the Masons on next Sunday rendered the occasion more than a mere passing event. Cognizant of this fact a goodly number of the Masons were out to see and hear the interpretation put upon the author's words and music in connection with St. John, his feast and the myths which were interwoven in the celebration of the event. The Choral Club after four months of hard work gave the audience satisfaction in this musical treat. The audience was very responsive and impressionable. The soloists were Miss Jennie Hicks, as soprano, and Nancy, the heroine, even surpassed herself in grandeur and charm of voice, personality and presentation, than at any time in her previous appearances. Miss Hicks clearly demonstrated without a possibility of a doubt her wonderful control, clear and accurate tones in the higher registers which she sings in a seemingly effortless manner.
The house was greatly influenced by her neat presentation. Mme. Cora J. Spires of Indianapolis, contralto and as Margaret, the witch, was a complete surprise to the audience because of the dramatic expression, quality and depths of the tones to which she descended. In her every tone was the illustration of her magic art and wierd phophecies. Her interpretation was good, manner very pleasing and acceptable to the audience. Mr. Morgan Jackson, tenor, as 'Squire, the hero, was all that could be expected of a dashing young man love lorn and successful. He sang his part well and in the duet with Miss Hicks they simply captured the house. Rev. Wiseman, baritone, as Robert, the bold and disappointed lover, entered into his part with a great deal of feeling and emotion, and received a strong hand of applause and appreciation, even though "Nancy" spurned him. The audience, while not so large, was very extravagant in their use of words of praise for the club and its assistants. Rev. D. E. Over declared publicly, that it was the best rendition ever given by the club. The club was very much elated over the success and over the valuable assistance given by the soloists and Mr. Morrison, as violinist. Mrs. Gertle N. Ross received many congratulations, as accompanist. The club will render Queen Esther, St. John Eve and a light aria this fall for the benefit of the Club home.

ATTORNEY A. W. LEWIS WINS BIG CASE AFTER BITTER FIGHT
Seldom, if at any time, do many lawyers have a case so stubbornly and bitterly fought as was in the replevin suit of O. T. Jackson vs. Pratt, wherein Pratt was charged with wrongfully detaining O. T. Jackson's mare. The case was won in the County court and District court by Mr. Lewis. The last time he not only received the horse but also $90 damages more than heretofore given in the lower court. Mr. Lewis appeared in the Supreme court and had the supersedens denied and he is now in position to force payment from Pratt. Not only are the many friends of Mr. Lewis congratulating him, but also his client. O. T. Jackson is full of smiles because of the victory. Mr. Lewis has a just reason to feel proud of himself and we congratulate him on his success.

AT REST.
The Almighty has seen fit to take from our midst Mrs. Alexander Adams. With only a few hours of suffering death came at Mercy hospital Monday morning. Words are inadequate to tell the sadness, one can only realize it by thinking of the six little children who have been left without the love of a devoted mother. The funeral, conducted by the Douglas Co., was held at the house Wednesday, where a great number of friends and the Amanda Smith Auxiliary were present, also Mrs. Effie Record, president general of the national organization, and Miss Bess O'Brien of Columbus, Ohio, chief of staff. Comrades Oglesby, Barnes, Wells, Caldwell and Collier of Corporal White Camp, U. S. W. V., acted as pall-bearers. The casket was draped with a large American flag and adorned with many beautiful floral offerings. Revs. Ward and Bray officiated.

BACH-BEN CLUB'S OUTING.
One of the most enjoyable events of recent days was the moonlight outing to Arvada Saturday night. The club went by car to Lakeside, where they were met by Chas. Britton with a hayrack and taken to his country home. The night was made for the occasion, the moon shone in all its splendor and a more congenial throng was never together. Japanese lanterns were hung about the yard, enabling many to play croquet, while the majority indulged in cards and were treated to all the latest phonograph selections. In the spacious dining room a large table was spread, loaded down with all the good things of a country "feed." Mrs. Britton and daughters put forth every effort to have plenty, but their effort was a mere trifle compared to the efforts of the guests to get a-plenty. Table manners were cast aside, everybody simply "dug" in. It was the first time that the wives and sweethearts have been present and the club owes a lifelong debt to their host.

DEBUT OF RISING
YOUNG SONGSTE:
Edward Smyth Jones Ltonized
, at “Mother” Zion,
RENDERS Ove ETHIOPIA.
New York.—One of the most pleas
urable as well us the most artistic fex-
tures in musical circles in Gréater Now
York recently was the recital by [1
ward Smyth Jones, author of ‘Prue
Sylvan Cabin.” who made his debut
before one of New York's most intel
lectual and cultured audiences in
“Mother” Zion church, Mr. Jones |s
hailed everywhere as the foremost of
young American poets.
‘The “affair” was unique, running
the whole gamut of poetic feeling and
expression, from the alry lyrles of tle
“Bachelor's Reverie” through the 1j
estic lines of his epic “An Ode to Ft!
opia.” ‘The poet’s versatility and mas
tery of his art were shown, wiicli
justifies the Baltimore Ameriean {n
saying, “His study of literary tect:
nique is found in the literary finis!) of
his verses, but above this fs a delicate
fancy, a convincing sentiment and «
expression of thought which mark his
as a genuine poet.”
‘The program was opened with “Fas
chingsschwank Aus Wien.” Miss S
Gertrude Dees at the Instrument.
Miss Dees Is a teacher in the New
York Settlement School of Music. Sie

rare artistie ability both in the open

ing number and as accompanist of the
vocal selections. She contributed much
to the success of the entertainment,
Miss Dees was followed by , Miss
Lena B. Simms, the vocal artist of the
evening. Her first selection was “Rob:
ert le Diable” (Meyerbeer). Some of
the other numbers were “Yesterday
and Today” (Spross), “Le Cid” (\fasse-
net), “Hi. Ll Feller’ (itiker), and
“lve Something Sweet to Teil You"
(Fanning).
Miss Simms, the first coloratura so-
‘prano of the race, is’a pupil of Mme.
‘De Luce Morrison, one of the greatest
living music teuchers. She showed to
advantage the value of such a toaeber.
Her voice was par excellent ead her
Pronunciation and enunciation clear.
"As an artist Miss Simms lias great
\promise, and her siiccess seems assur
ed. Her singing was a very consple-
uous feature of the concert. And I
think Mr. Jones hag best described It
in two passages of his inimftable
“Lulu Johnson's Song” when ho says:
But no song of merry woodiand, nelther
hilt nor date nor dell,
‘Has ever smote my bosom nor has made
my spirit swell
Like the soul inspiring music that s@ soft:
ly piides along
‘Oh, 80 softly and so gently in swoot Lula

And again while thinking of his soul's
homeward fight:
‘Then ['ll wing stralght nome for glory.

“Lula Johnson's Song.” which was fol-
lowed by lis masterpiece, “An Ode to
Ethfopin.” The reading of the ode
was illustrated with some very beau-
tifully colored stereopticon slides, each
one harmonizing with the lines in
which the scenes are described, The
effect was tremendons, carrying the
audience by storm. “O God, Wilt

How a Housing Bureau Will Work For
the Race’s Social Betterment.
The Nationa! League on Urban Con
ditions Among Colored People has re
cently moved its new beadquarters
Into the new World's Tower building
at 110 West Fortieth street. About
four months ago the league opened a
branch office in Harlem at 127 West
One Hundred and Thirty-tifth street
In this office Is located the work of the
industrial committee and the housing
bureau of the league
‘The housing bureau ts a new work
added to the league's many agencies
for the social betterment of our peo
ple in New York city. ‘The work as
planned by this bureau deals with the
many ital problems that arise from
the congested tenement life in the city
The results already obtained promise
a very suecessfinl future.
Tus department of the league also
plons te ald the many visitors to New
York elty In obtaining quiet, respects
ble secommodations. The advantage
to the graveling public of this work
alone Is worth the bureau’s exp bist
ment. Many persons go to Ne® York
and have wn otherwise pleasant visit
spoiled by being unable to secure com
fortable places to stop.
A number of the best New York
families will accommodate persons
recommended by this bureau, Any
one planning to visit New York for
any purpose who wants such accom-
modstlons should write to this bureau
at 127 West One Hundred and Thirty-
Oth street. There is absolutely no
charze for this service, and the league
plans tO arrange a similar service in
other Gian: ‘
