FRENCH DEMOCRACY GRATES ON THE SOUTHERNERS Americans Surprised at French Treatment of Colored Soldiers The Independent, a local white weekly, published the following article in its issue of November 13, contrasting the Southernner's idea of democracy with what obtains in France The French have one idea of democracy and Americans another, the result of which is confusing and embarrassing to American white soldiers who are now in France to help carry on the war for democracy. Democracy in France, where democracy had its birth knows no color line. What this means to American troops is brought out in a letter received by Miss Mary Gurley of this city this week from a soldier friend, now with the colors in France. The soldier boy says: "It certainly gets a Southerner's goat to see how the races mix up on this side. It's not an unusual sight to see a big black Negro walking down the street with his arms around a pretty white girl and then to see him reach over and kiss her regardless of who may be looking. This is a regular thing in the concert halls and cabarets: It is getting to be quite a problem with the Y. M. C. A. in Bordeaux. They have a reading room and restaurant which is open to all soldiers. The 'nigger' soldiers are about to take possession of the place and the Y. M. C. A. officials don't know how to go about drawing the color line. The American girls that are running the restaurant are refusing to wait on the 'niggers' and the Associatian is getting right up against it. Of course this will be worse when the American 'nigger' soldiers and white Southern soldiers get together over here. "The French people seem to have a very high regard for a 'nigger' and they interright along. The La Touraine, which left Bordeaux last Sunday, carried over 75 officers who are to train the American troops at the cantonments in trench warfare. One of these officers is carrying a 'nigger' with along with him. Understand he has been assigned to some camp in Texas. His social position out there will be about deuce high The Fenner Star Wishes You a Very Happy and Prosperous New Year The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 COMMANDER OF GREATEST INSURANCE BRINGS HOLIDAY CHEER Hon.

In a word to take inventory in order to assure ourselves of our credits and debits for the year. This big world of ours is made up of many peoples who have as many minds and peculiar characteristics. To our great disadvantage, add to the already bloody record of lynchings and lynchers Memphis, Dyersburg, Tenn., Waco and Houston, Texas, East St. Louis, Illinois and Wyoming. Negro lives slaughtered, burned and made homeless by white felons and murderers who boast of the highest type of christian civilization; the attempted mob spirit with the murder, maiming and robbing of unknown hundreds; attempted segregation ordinances in counties and cities, residential and public places strikes against Negro labor employment by Union men in East and North; discouragement of Negro Emigration from South to the North of Mason—Dixon line and present railroad restriction in transportation from South and hanging of 13 hero soldiers by U.

Bruce, father of Odd Fellows in Colorado and giant in Masonic fraternity and Dr. C. D. DeFrantz, great physician and Y. M. C. A. worker. Turning the pages to our credits we can say, altho hated and hunted, hounded and horror stricken, oppressed because human love had been crowded out of the heart of the oppressor, we are stronger numerically and financially heavier. We note the increased employment of Negro women and girls in South North, East and West, paying better wages; new uplift movement of the Y. W. C. A. increasing colored workers from one to six to care for the moral, social, industrial and economic condition of the unfortunate colored woman and girl with a studied systematic investigation in their lives by the cooperation of Southern, Eastern and Northern women black and white; Greater Y. M. C. A. activities in making and sustaining a greater moral army; a favorable unanimous segregation decision by U.

He is particularly impressed with the changed attitude of the Southern whites towards Negroes in many of the places visited. There seems to be a wholesome disposition on the part of the better element of the South to recognize and secure for the colored people a larger amount of consideration. It seems to be the consensus of opinion of the Southern press that the Negro cannot much longer be denied the right of franchise. Although the exodus from the South to the North has ceased to a very large extent, still it seems to be dawning on the mind of average Southern man that it is a matter of either giving the Negro larger consideration and opportunities or finally losing him altogether. Mr. White feels that now is the time for the Negro to make his influence felt to the uttermost—the time is now ripe and we should strike now Some medium should be recognized by us all as the mouthpiece whereby we are to make our wants and demands known. Considering the achievements already won by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people, it would appear to be the part of wisdom for us all to identify ourselves with that institution and its messenger, The Crisis to the end that when it should speak those in authority may know that it is the voice of twelve million free people. "Let us raise our hats to Newton D. Baker, Secretary of War. He has not done everything we could wish, but he has accomplished so much more than President Wilson or any other member of this Administration that he deserves all praise. He has carried out the draft with absolute fairness, notwithstanding delays. He has put black troops in nearly every cantonment. He has commissioned nearly 700 Negro officers in the U.S. Army. He has sent black troops to the front. He has made no discrimination in treatment or pay or opportunity. To be sure, we are segregated; but that was according to a foolish law for which the Secretary was not responsible. We are not permitted to volunteer beyond our four regiments but there, again, the authority of the Secretary is at least, in doubt. A campaign is being carried on here to raise $175,000 for the Babies' Hospital by a group of society women. At their last meeting twenty babies were brought in and one given to each captain for a mascot Two colored children were taken to live in the homes of millionaires for ten days Considering his limitations and the tremendous opposition to act of justice to the Negro, Secretary Baker has done DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, DEC. 29, 1917 Watchman, what of the Night In our struggles, anxieties and short comings-all efforts to overcome destructive forces in our own ranks, racial mistrust, outside injustice, calumny, color and race discrimination, it is not indiscreet to pause once a year and take time enough to note our progress. It is well to anchor in the deep sea of humanity and note the ebb and flow of the tide of human wrecks, mistakes and crimes, keeping a watchful eye on the compass of equality, world's wide democracy and liberty to determine exactly our relative position in America and in the world. well. And he has crowned his well doing by appointing an official advisor who belongs to the Negro race. There re remains one more thing for the Secretary to do. We have not yet our full quota of Negro officers. There were 86, 300 Negroes called in the first draft. Allowing us no officers higher than a captain, this would call for a 1000 Colored officers and if we furnish 200, Negro troops in the second draft, as seems likely, we should at least have 3000-000 officers. We have at present 700. WE NEED A SECOND OFFICERS TRAINING CAMP IN JANUARY. We can furnish the men, will the government furnish the instructors? "The Crisis urges that you write your Congressmen and Secretary Baker. Do it now". To the memory of those 13 that were hanged. You are dead, but you were no cowards, you were brave in life and fearless in death, dying in the noble defense of and protesting against the insults to our noble womanhood. We honor you, we cherish your memories and long may your names be ever green in our posterity's offspring. With no punishment for those who assaulted and terrorized these soldiers, with not only no punishment for lynchers of Colored citizens and but light sentences for confessed murderers in the massacre of men and women, but not even a word from the President against the burning alive of our people, the treatment of the dead bodies of these brave Colored soldiers becomes an outrage upon the Colored American people. More than that, as a race we possess a sober conscience an undisputed intelligence, moral stamina that means progress a patriotism that is unimpeachable, an invincible spirit with an indomintable will charged with an intense dogged determination poised by a marked degree of integrity and a purpose of future worth to see things thru notwithstanding this veneered christian racial peace and justice seething with hate, race and color discriminatives.

Colored Girl Sells Xmas Presents in New York Brooklyn, N. Y.—The kind of democracy for which colored Americans are willing to fight was shown by the Loft Candy Manufacturing Company the past week, when the company applied to the employment department of Hunter College in East 68th St. and Park Avenue. N. Y. City for one hundred students to work as sales girls in their chain of stores for the holidays. Among the students who were given cards was Lilian C. Dodson, the only colored girl in the group. The company honored her card without hesitation and Miss Dodson worked from Dec. 17th to 24th. Her record of sales was among the highest of any girl in the store This is an instance where mer it and color was recognized Miss Dodson is the first girl of our race so far as we know to serve in this capacity. She is a graduate of the public and high schools here and is pursuing a course at Hunter College leading to the degree of Bachelor of Arts. Miss Dodson is the daughter of N. B. Dodson of the American Press Association. LeRoy N Bundy, Negro dentist, charged with inciting Negroes to violence during the East St Louis riots,will be tried in Waterloo, Monroe Co Illinois, it became known to night Bundy applied for a change of venue on the ground that predujice was too great against him in St Clair county The state made no objection The date of the trial has not been fixed strate our high standard of citizenship, patriotism, and equality with all human races has come. This is a great day for the American Negro. In spite of the East St. Louis horror, in the face of the execution of thirteen brave Negro men at Ft. Sam Houston, who gave their lives with a song on their lips, that race prejudice in these United States should be wiped out, in spite of all these things, the blsek people of America are going into this war side by side of the whites, to establish DEMOCRACY THRUOUT THE WORLD. One of the greatest needs of the American Negro is a voice, AN ORGAN OF SPEECH, so loud and strong that it can be heard in every civilized clime. A people with out a voice, a people who are dumb, will ezer be compelled to suffer in silence at the hand of their oppressors.

The present high price of flour has given everybody the desire to use all Buckwheat has always filled the mind of the housewife as only a griddle cake mixture, when in truth it may be used in many ways to save on flour. Its nutritive properties are nearly the same as wheat, it contains less protein but has a slightly higher carbohydrate content and more fat than wheat. As it is slightly laxative in its tendency, it is especially valuable to a large number of people. And her surprising thing about buckwheat is that it makes a good breakfast cereal and may be used for breading fish, chops and such foods. One great disadvantage which can be easily overcome is its habit of lumping, so it must be mixed with coarser grains or cold water before hot water is added or the lumps will have to be strained out. PRACTICAL FLORIST First Class Treatment to all All Work Guaranteed We Serve the Best Flower and Garden Seeds of All Kinds Buckwheat Mush.—Take two cupfuls of milk and two and a half cupfuls of water with two teaspoonfuls of salt. When boiling stir in a cupful of buckwheat mixed with a little of the cold liquid, stir and cook until smooth. Cook in a double boiler 80 minutes. Buckwheat Brown Bread.—Take four cupfuls of buckwheat flour, one cupful of wheat flour, and a yeast cake dissolved in a half cupful of lukewarm water, two cupfuls of milk, one cupful of molasses, two tablespoonfuls of shortening and a teaspoonful of salt. Buckwheat Gems.—Take a cupful each of buckwheat flour and wheat flour, one tablespoonful of melted butter, one egg, a cupful of milk, a half teaspoonful of salt and four teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Mix and bake in hot buttered gem pans. Buckwheat Cookies.—Take a half cupful of shortening, one cupful of sugar, two eggs, and one a half cupfuls of buckwheat flour. Mix well, roll out, cut in shapes, sprinkle with sugar and bake in a quick oven. In these days of high prices it is time that buckwheat found its proper place as a valuable food; it has been ignored too long. Nellie Maxwell Dr. Joseph E. Raycroft, director of the department of physical science at Princeton, predicts a year of unusual athletic activity among the army training camps. He says: "There will be more real and widespread athletic activity in this country during the next twelve months than ever before in our lifetime." Doctor Raycroft is a member of the war department's commission on training camp activities. "That the colleges have abandoned athletics is entirely a false notion that has attained too general circulation and acceptance," says Doctor Raycroft. "The colleges have not and will not abandon athletics; what some of them did abandon was intercollegiate competition. "Take Princeton, for example. Of our student body of some 1,600 young men, nearly 800 prompt enlisted for war service and at once began training for it. It left them neither time nor opportunity to engage in competition with other college athletes, and we therefore made a virtue of necessity." opportunity with other therefore n Geo.

The back and neck may be made into a vegetable stew by adding carrots, onions, potatoes and celery with rice and cooking a long time well covered in the oven. For an invalid the delicate fillet taken from the breast broiled in a well-greased paper, makes a most dainty tid-bit. The breast may be cooked, cut in slices and served as sandwich filling with bacon, making a most popular and satisfying sandwich. Chicken Jelly—Take one chicken breast cut fine, and add to a pint of hot chicken stock. Dissolve a package of gelatin in a little cold water and add it to the hot stock. Season well and pour into a mold. Serve cut in various shapes as salad or molded in small forms served on lettuce with mayonnaise or boiled dressing. Nellie Maxwell Doctor Raycroft disagrees with the popular notion that American expertise in baseball throwing will prove a distinct advantage in the hurling of bombs. Trench experience, he states, has demonstrated that the most effective results with those deadly little missiles is obtained by a forward and thrusting throw, as in shot-putting or the short-armed bowling throw which prevails in cricket. Information obtained from those who have had experience with bombs and grenades on the battlefields and in the Canadian camps indicate that the free overhand baseball throw is too prone to overshoot the mark to be of such pronounced advantage, as most Americans have fancied must prove the case. Practically every branch of sport will be encouraged in the training camps, but it is probable that boxing will play a leading part. Mother's Cook Book.

Toast and mix; serve with chopped picles. Peanut butter added to baked beans instead of pork is a change which is liked by peanut lovers. Onions and Cheese A most satisfying and wholesome dish is onions and cheese. Cook the onions until tender, then place a layer in a baking dish, then a layer of good rich white sauce and a thick layer of grated cheese, cover with another layer of onions and white sauce and finish the top with buttered crumbs. Bake until well heated and the crumbs well browned. Hard cooked eggs may be cut up and added to onions in place of the cheese if desired. Vinegar Whitens.

HOME FUNERAL PARLORS First aid to the bereaved Modern in every particular Our city is very much alive with the spirit of the times; "Merry Xmas" is the joyous greeting heard on every hand. As of old all roads were said to lead to the Mistress City, Rome, so all streets in Cheyenne now lead to Allen's A. M. E. Church. The young, eloquent, versatile and progressive Pastor, Rev. N. H. Jeltz, has proven his ability to pastor the whole city of Cheyenne and all the people, young and old alike, love and respect him and his splendid family. A beautiful Xmas Eve program and tree marked this date at the A. M. E. church. Over 50 children participated. The activities were in charge of H. C. Jefferson, Supt. of S. S., and he was able assisted by Mrs. Eunice Cane and Miss Lillian Jefferson, who had direct charge at training the little folks. Over a hundred lovely gifts were distributed to the children by the Superintendent and friends. All of the little folks and grown ups were made happy. A well-filled Xmas basket, with a big turkey and all that ordinarily goes with it, was given Rev. Jeltz and family. Also a purse of $9.00 in cash. The basket was made up of gifts solicited by the generous Mrs. S. L. Willis, and the cash was from Xmas good will fund of $60, raised by Mrs. Mary over her husband and friends. A word about the great $60 Good Will Fund: Mrs. Mary Baker, assisted by her husband and friends of their well managed Cafe and Amusement Parlor, conceived early in the season the novel idea of soliciting funds with which to make the hearts of the worthy poor members of the race living in the city glad on Xmas time. The plan was a brilliant success. $60 in cash was raised. Mrs. Baker, who is a staunch member of Allen's A. M. E. Church, turned this cash fund over to the pastor of said church. Rev. Jeltz, for distribution through said church to such parties and sources as the donors thought worthy. Thus on Xmas Eve morning the pastor on one of his stewards, Mr. Wm.

NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF COLORED WOMEN I have good news for you. God is answering our prayers. I appeared before the Rules Committee of the House of Representatives. Friday, August 3rd, and that night Congressman Dyer phoned me that the Committee was wonderfully impressed and had decided to recommend that the Resolution, begging Federal Investigation be taken up by Congress. Now, we must win. God will help us if we help ourselves. Keep at it! WORK! PETITIONS! PETITIONS! PETITIONS are the things that will prove that there is countrywide sentiment and determination back of this demanding that an end be put to mob violence. Now, I will not rest until every Congressman is appealed to to take a stand for justice and protection. Will you get men to sign these Petititions in ink, and you divide the number and send them directly to the members of Congress from your State? Send them to men in the House and in the Senate. See that the work is neatly done so as to reflect the intelligence that there is back of this movement. Tell our people to take pride and pleasure in this. Get influential white friends to sign some of them. Give them the literature and urge them to see their patriotic duty in saving America from mob violence. Get signatures. Every Petition counts. Fill out the enclosed memorandum and send it at once, to me. This memorandum goes to Congressman Dyer. He wants to keep close tab on what is being done by the Colored people themselves. Send each Congressman one of the enclosed tags. Write a very short letter, telling him you know he is going to hear the voice of his fellow countryman, pleading for justice and protection. Make it bristle with patriotism, but make him feel that this country is facing a problem at home that is no less serious than the problem abroad. Work with us in this. Pray with us and we will win.

PEARSON. "All promenayde," shouted the prompter, wiping the sweat from his forehead with the back of one hand and holding a half-smoked cigar between the thumb and first finger of the other. The two men with violins scraped away for dear life, the little fat fellow with the big bass viol sawed even more industriously, and the cornet, the trombone and the flute strained their lungs to drown out their opponents of the strings. The result was a very catalysm of sound. O'Brien's orchestra had outdone itself. The dancers having "promenayed" at full speed of the utmost limit allowed by the size of the pavilion, caught at its rail to steady themselves. Turning, they laughed and shouted their approval of the orchestra's endeavors until above their heads the gaudy paper lanterns, hung in long lines for canned adornment, were stirred by the anise. The few couples who descended the long, board steps and strolled along the river bank soon seated themselves on the little scattered benches, none too large for two. But one pair who did not stop until they had gained a point of land that jutted out into the river, where, upon the very edge an iron summer house hung above the falls. There the girl reclined comfortably in a corner and watched her companion light his pipe. "It's nice out here, isn't it, Tim?" said she presently. "It's so cool and quiet and—everything." "Sure, it's next door to heaven; an' if you were nearer to me I could fancy the door was open." The girl flushed, but had no retort ready and the two sat in silence. "I've had two jobs offered me since I saw you last," said Tim finally. "You're doing well enough where you are now," replied the girl quickly. "I heard the Old Man tell Mr. Laurie yesterday that you were the best shipper they ever had. And I'll bet one of your jobs is with Dan Gile." "So it is, Annie. How did you know? Did Maggie tell?" "Did Maggie tell! Well, rather, not. Do you think she's fool enough to set her cap for a fellow and then go advertise it?" Now it was Tim's time to redden. "Aw, cut that out, Annie, there's no girl business in this. Dan's getting old and he wants somebody that he can trust to run the place. Why, this last barkeeper Dan's got, when he takes in any money he ups it in the air. 'If ye stay up,' he says, 'ye belong to Dan; If ye come down, ye belong to me.'" Annie sniffed contemptuously. "Dan Gile's got plenty of money no barkeeper can steal from him." she said. "He's got thousands of it we all know, but he's got no husband for his daughter Maggie, and she's not so young as she'd like to be." "Oh, I don't know!" spoke up Tim promptly coming to the defense of the absent with chivalrous instinct and mischievous intent, "she's not so aged. There's no silver threads among the gold—" "Red!" interjected Annie. "Well, red, then. She laughs as often and shows as good teeth as any girl in the village. And dancing tonight I'll say for her she was as light on her feet as a feather." "It's time you were dancing with her again if you like it so well," said Annie, springing up and starting out of the summer house. "Let's hurry back. I should be going home now, anyway." Tim was beside her with a restraining hand, holding hers. "Don't go yet, Annie," he pleaded. "Sure, I was only teasing. I'd dig in the ditch before I'd tend bur, and you know it. But I told you I'd two jobs offered me." "And what was the other?" asked Annie. "Killeen, the contractor, offers to take me in with him," said Tim, a touch of pride in his voice. "It'll be like learning a new trade for me, but Killeen knows the business if any man does, and he says he can put me on in time." "Mr. Killeen's got some big jobs later," interposed Annie appreciatively. "That's one reason why he's willing to take me in. Killeen's not a rich man and this last contract he got is too much for him to handle on his capital. He knows I've a little in the bank, and so for the sake of the money he's willing to give me a chance. There's one hitch in the scheme. Killeen wants me to go up country and look after the quarries there, but I told him I couldn't go without I fixed things right with certain parties here." "I don't see why you should bother yourself about anyone else," said Annie looking away from him. Tim hesitated a moment. "It's you I want, Annie. I'll not go away unless you go with me. I can't leave you. I won't leave you. Will you go with me, Annie dear? Will you be my wife?" Her hand trembled in his. "Are you sure you want me, Tim? Are you sure you'll never want another?" she insisted. "The love of women is in your blood, Tim. Whether it cost you dear or cost you naught, you've always been ready to follow a pretty face. I couldn't stand that, Tim. It would kill me. Because—" she faltered a little—"I do love you, Tim, and—" Tim joyously clasped her in his arms.

SULLIVAN, THE TAILOR [ Goods Called for and Delivered Work Guaranteed ] 2737 WELTON ST. DENVER, CO PETITION TO THE PETITION President a FOR We, as American citizens, respectfully state to the Government of the United States that Ireland is a distinct nation, deprived of her liberty by force and held in subjection by England by military power alone. As America has entered the war for the preservation of democracy and the freedom of small nationalities, this Government is in honor bound to apply this principle impartially in all cases of peoples held in subjection, whether they be under the Jurisdiction of Germany, like Belgium, or of England, like Ireland. As America cannot be a party to any scheme of world peace which withholds from any nation the God-given right of freedom, the only final settlement must be the complete independence of Ireland. America has the right, by her entry into the war, to demand N from England, not in the Peace Conference at the close of the war, but now. We therefore respectfully urge upon the President and the Congress the necessity and good policy of giving a great example to the world by insisting that England shall grant Ireland complete national independence. We earnestly hope that, like Cuba, Ireland will be made free by the action of America. NAME ADDRESS Every lover of Democracy, irrespective of sex, race and religion, is asked to sign this Petition.

Again, the American Woodmen Nas demonstrated to the people of Den- ver that it stands first in these United States in the prompt payment of its obligations. On Thursday the 20th of this month the local camp was bo unfortunate as to lose one of its lead. ing and most influential members in the person of Mr. Earl DeFrantz, prother-in?law of Mrs. Mable De- Frantz. On the same day of the de- mise a check was paid over to the beneficiary for $375.00 from the Su- preme Camp, while the local camp paid its amount of the burial benefits. When it is considered that late Neigh- por DeFrantz had paid into the order ‘a total of less than $50.00, it will be readily seen that the protection that js afforded by this great order really protects. The American Woodmen will close the present calendar year with 2 le- gal reserve of more than $200,000, a gain of nearly 60 per cent. for the twleve months past. ‘With rapid strides the large cen- ters of population in the North are being won over to Woodcraft, it is only a matter of a short time until the American Woodmen shall rank as one of the strongest insurance instt- tutions in the United States, either black or white. We beg to acknowledge the receipt of Xmas greetings from Mr. and Mrs. ‘Arthur M.

I'm not a saying nothing, child, I'm just waiting to see What that little place out yonder, Called Dearfield, is going to be.

Why, now the big folks crowding in, That cuts the room for me; I expect to lay, right with them, Steve, Because Dearfield’s going to be. T'l tell you, bud, it’s nip and tuck, Be worse than Calvarie; Before you move me away from here Where Dearfield’s going to be. That little white painted house up there, Called Dearfield School, Is spreading out that way which shows That Dearfield’s going to be. There's Houston’s Store and Post Office, And dwelling house make two . Have gone up and don’t you know Old Dearfield’s going to be. You'd better go to the “Land Office,” And pay your filing fee, So you can get a home out there Where Dearfield’s going to be. You ought to ride out through the colony, And then you will agree, That this isn't got up may be 80, But Dearfleld’s going to be. Now if you want to know some more Ask God and Rev. McCully, For they're the only ones can tell What Dearfield’s going to be. ORADO is not on = boom. Just a steady growth caused by the demand for labor and business of all kinds. Now is the time to join the wave of Dearfield prosperity. . Dearfield needs 100 small houses to care for the families: who are to ar- rive in the spring.

Woman’s After-War Work. Mary Boazman writes as follows in the Woman at Home, London: -“At the end of the war many women will be engaged in vocations once sa- cred to men. Some of these are prob- ably unsuited to them, but in others they will continue to the advantage of themselves and society. The time 1s surely ripe for a proper division of the various employments between the two sexes to end the fierce competl- tlon prevailing before the increase to the army. For instance, walting at table and the teaching of young chil- dren are tasks more adapted to wom- en than to men, and might well be- come their monopoly. It 1s clearly wiser to prepare for the numbers of women who wil! have to be provided for in the future in a systematic fash- on, than to leave the matter to settle itself in the haphazard way which hee confusion and strife.” 1011-21st St. .

Many families are pointing with pride, nowadays, to the records they are making, or have made, in the serv- ige of the country. But it ts doubtful if in any American family there 1s more reason for pride than in that of William B. Gould, a Negro veteran of the Civil war. ‘In “The Crisis,” a monthly publication for colored peo- ple, the Christmas number reproduces ‘a photograph of William .B. Gould, in his Grand Army uniform, and his six stalwart sons in khaki. One of these sons is a major, three are first lieu- tenants and two are privates. ‘These are all the sons William has, He gave himself to the cause of the unton in the Civil war and has given his splendid boys to fight for the land that once held him a slave.

Interesting services were held at Campbell Chapel on Sunday and the early Christmas morning service eclipsed all past occasions of its kind. The full robed choir, under direction of Mrs. Clark Craig, did credit to themselves and the church in the rendition of the excellent Christmas music. Pastor Ward followed the choir in its anthem "Glory to God in the Highest," with an able sermon upon that theme as his text. The decorations were furnished by our artist, Mr. R. Brown—his own handiwork. The Sunday School Christmas exercises held on Monday evening under direction of Mrs. Eugene Moore, were enjoyed by an enthusiastic audience. The pastor will occupy his pulpit on Sunday when the choir is again to render its Christmas music. All people are invited to come and worship with us at all services and especially the watch-night services at 9 o'clock Monday evening.

Gym Class meets Saturday night. The Y. W. C. A. quartet covered thimselfs with glory last Sunday night at Shorter. As was expected the church was filled with those anxious to hear the singing. The young ladies set a high standard at their first appearance, several weeks ago, and they excelled that program in every particular. Too much credit cannot be given Mrs. Jennie LeNoir, their instructress, for the excellence of this high class program. The solos rendered by Misses Bettina Jackson and Mable Cole were most inspiring. Associated with the quartet, as accompanist is Mrs. Leona Bray, who rendered an organ solo in a very pleasing manner. The quartet is composed of Mesdames Vernal Barnet, Jennie Hicks LeNoir and Misses Bettina Jackson and Mable Cole, and is exceptionally fortunate in having as their instructor, Mrs. Le Noir, and as their accompanist. Mrs. Bray, who are each the product of Fisk University, one of the leading musical institutions of America. The audience evidenced their approval of the girls' work by giving them an after collection of $19.00. Standing at the corner of 24th Ave. and Clarkson St., at 7.30 a.m., and looking at our busy and industrious mothers and widows going with their little ones to the Club Home and Day Nursery certainly inspires a true contributor and makes you feel proud of Denver's institution.

The most of the workers have dropped out, but the more faithful are keeping it up, in accordance with the slogan adopted at the beginning, to "Stay in the field until the war is ended." One hundred pledges are being sought for January. At this writing less than twenty remain to be secured. Beginning with New Year's Day a drive will begin for a similar number for February. All available space was crowded last Sunday afternoon to hear the address of Lieutenant Thos. C. McConnell speak of the Great War as he saw it at Verdun and other battlefields of France. It was a harrowing stole which he told, one which at times almost made the blood stop flowing in one's veins. Christmas Day was pleasantly spent by the boys visiting the Y. They played games, ate apples and had a good time in general. All boys attending the high schools of the city are called together on Friday evening to organize a High School Club.

THE BUTCHERS' UNION HAD THEIR BULL AT THE BALL. It is not often that one can be present at any place where so much mirth and good time was experienced as was experienced at the recent ball given by the Butchers' Union at Fern Hall last Thursday night. Each butcher was garbed in his white jacket closely attended by his "bull," that gave zest and mirth to the occasion. A large crowd greeted them on their initial effort before the public. The lively committee responsible for this grand affair were F. R. Jones, H. Jenkins, and W. Payne, who were ornated with just "a little bull." Organized July '25th, 1917, the Amalgamated Meatcutter's and Butcherworkers' Union has a membership of 1,200, of which 150 are Colored. This was their first annual dance and much joy was the consequence. MIDWEST EXTENSION TO RAISE PRICE OF STOCK.

Never before has Fern hall had such a nice time as we had Xmas afternoon when Ollie Grigsby and Cedell Norris gave their first Xmas social event, where joy and gladness was to flow like water. These young people had a crowded house and a royal good time was experienced. Everybody was smiles. The Yuletide activities in the social realm would not be complete if the mention of the swell dances given at the Columbine Dancing Academy every Monday night, was not made in this issue. Monday night especially was extremely noticeable in that the ladies were all in their latest evening gowns and the men were in their evening dress—all dancing beneath the swinging mistletoe, festooned with Xmas berries and shrubbery.
