Paris, Texas. Feb. 20.—Seventeen citizens of Red River county were brought here and lodged in the Lamar county jail on federal warrants charging them with violating the national defense act. The wholesale arrests resulted from an investigation extending over several weeks conducted by the United States district attorney's office in conjunction with special agents of the department of justice acting under instruction from Washington. The prisoners are tenant farmers living in the northern portion of Red River county along the river. They are alleged to have organized for the purpose of terrorizing Negro farmers of the country and moving them from their farms Their operations extended clear across the county and resulted in the burning of Negro dwellings, churches and school houses and other depedations. White Cap notices were posted through their operations and resulted in the abandonment of many farms under cultivation by Negroes. It is expected that many other arrests will follow as a result of the investigation.
New York. Feb. 14.—Reverdy C. Ransom, editor of the A. M. E. Review and Lawyer John C Hawking are candidates for Congress from the Twenty-second Congressional district to fill vacancies of Murray Hulbert and Henry Brusker at the special election to be held on Tuesday, March 5. The names of Messrs. Ransom and Hawkins were presented at a meeting of the National Association of Advancement of Colored People held at Palace Casino.
The Colored population in Harlem in which she Twenty-second Congressional district is located, numbers 120,000. The people of this section of the city are deeply interested in two candidates and every effort is being made to elect Messrs. Ransom and Hawkins on March 5. The Hon. John M. Royal, president of the League and victor in the big campaign of last November, in which Edward A. Johnson was elected to the State Legislature is devoting all of his energy to this special campaign.
Terre Haute, Ind., Feb. 22. The Indiana State Normal school has officially announced that the wireless telegraphy classes, under the supervision of Prof. Loubach, will enroll students regardless of race. Heretofore color has played an important part in enrollment of students, and Prof. Loubach is accredited with having said that he
would only instruct which students. Miss Evangelin H. Harris teacher in the Booker Washiegton Graded school, and Mrs. Fred H. Evans, superintendent of the Day Nursery, wrote the War Department concerning the discrimination, and the institution was notified by that source that they would either have to remove the color line or dismiss plans to carry on the wireless instructions. Prof Loubach announced that he was willing to accept all races after being warned by the War Department.
Dunbar has immortalized the American Negro in poetry. Du Bois and Miller, of America; Blyden, J. E. J. Captain, A. W. Amo and Bishop Adj. Crowther, of West Africa, have secured a permanent place for Negro intellect in pure scholarship. Pushkin and Dumas have made the world debtors to the Negro in the realm of literature. Tanner's paintings decorate the walls of the Luxembourg in Paris, and Langston, Brnce, Lynch, Elliot, Price, Washington and Douglass have secured for the race a worthy place in eloquence and in oratory. Williams and Wilson have written histories of the achievements of the American Negro in American wars. Some time in the future a Negro student and scholar will write a history of the Negro's contribution to the civilization of the human race. When that history is written there will be nothing which will shed more fame upon the Negro than the true record of the great part played by Negro soldiers in the wars of the world.
In his researches, studies and travels the future historian will visit the great library centers of the different nations and continents, and pausing in the world's great libraries will bring to light the hidden glory of Negro military achievement upon the world's noted battlefields.
Chief among the things which he must undisputably place to the Negro's credit will be that the Negro has played an important part in the world's military history since 3,000 years before Christ.
I fancy I see this historian as he notes that vast Negro army standing before the royal gates of King Pepi, the Egyptian monarch of the sixth dynasty, 3,000 years before Christ. Acquainted with the soldierly qualities of the Negro to the South this intrepid monarch had collected and drilled a mighty army of black men to fight and war for Egypt. In a book entitled, "The Records of the Past" to the credit of the Negro soldier we read:
"That his majesty made soldiers of numerous ten thousands in the land of the South—the Negroes from Nam, the Negroes from Aman, the Negroes from Uauat, the Negroes from Kan, the Negroes from the land of Takam."
According to some Egyptologists the scene of war was in the land of Assyria or Arabia. In either case, in that time, the country was distant and the marching difficult. Five wars were waged during this Egyptian campaign, in all of which the Negro troops were victorious. Under their famous Egyptian general, Una, the Negro soldier won for Egypt victory after victory, which not only made the Negro soldiers important contributors to Egyptian arts and culture, justly entitling her to the designation as "the mother of civilization," but those black troops set an example of Negro valor and bravery upon those far oriental fields, which seems to have inspired and thrilled the Negro soldiers through all the centuries and all the wars in which Negroes have been called to play a warrior's part.
We would like to ask Adjutant General of the United States Army a few questions;
1. Did not the Examining Board before whom COLONEL CHARLES YOUNG appeared recommend that he be RETAINED in the service and NOT retired?
3. Is it LEGAL to retire an officer of the United States Army before he appears before a Retiring Board?
4. Did Colored Young ever appear before Retiring Board?
5. Do not your records show that he did NOT appear before a Retiring Board, because the Examining Board, decided NOT to recommend him for retirement?
8. Who was it in your office who sent him to Ohio to do a job which your office immediately let him do?
9. Is there any connection between the fact that Charles Young is black, and you were born in Louisiana; and does that connection explain the extraordinary truth one of the best officers in the United States Army, whom Pershing, Roosevelt, Ballou, and a dozen others have recommended, and still recommend to command a regiment, is rewarded for a quarter century of service to his country by being virtually held a prisoner in Ohio on full pay WITH NOTHING TO DO?
10. Who is it, in this case, that is hindering and obstructing the efficiency of the United States Army and its work in this mighty and righteous war—a black colonel or a white general
DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1918
President Wilson on Tuesday afternoon recived a delegation of four members of the New York of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People by special appointment. The delegation placed before the President a petition signed by twelve thousand citizens of New York in which the President was asked to extend executive clemency to the five Negro soldiers of the Twenty fourth Infantry now under sentence of death by verdict of the court martial which tried the Houston riot cases, and requesting the President to cause to be laid before him a review of the cases of the forty one soldiers of the same regiment who were sentenced to life imprisonment by the first court martial.
Mr. Johnson, who acted as spokesman of the delegation, said; We come as a delegation from the New York Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, representing the twelve thousand signers to this petition which we have the honor to lay before you. And we come not only as the representatives of those who signed this petition, but we come representing the sentiments and aspirations and sorrows, too, of the great mass of the Negro population of the United States.
We respectfully and earnestly request and urge that you extend executive clemency to the five Negro soldiers of the Twenty fourth Infantry won under sentence of death by court martial. And, understanding that the cases of the same regiment who were sentenced to life imprisonment by the first court martial are to be reviewed, we also request and urge that you cause this review to be laid before you and that executive clemency be shown also to them.
We feel that the history of this particular regiment and the splendid record for bravery and loyalty of our Negro soldiery in every crisis of the nation give us the right to make this request. And we make it not only in the name of their loyalty, but also in the name of the unquestioned loyalty which today places them side by side with the original American stocks that landed at Plymouth and Jamestown.
6. WHO, THEN, "RETIRED" COLONEL YOUNG
7. Was he ever LEGALLY retired?
The hanging of thirteen men without the opportunity of appeal to the Secretary of War or to their Commander in Chief, the President of the United States, was a punishment so drastic and so unusual in the history of the nation that the execution of addition al members of the Twenty fourth Infantry would to the colored people of the country savor of vengeance rather than justice.

New York, Feb. 27.—Declaring that the black women of the North who now have the right to vote must band to gether for the black women of the South, Mrs. Howard Gould was today campaigning for votes for Reverdy C. Ransom, Negro candidate for congress.
She warned the Negro voters, especially the newly enfranchised women, not to be misled by white politicians, but to vote for the candidate of their own race.
"We call people blacks and whites now, but some day we'll call them United States Americans," Mrs. Gould said.
Prominent Churchman Dead

It is neither our purpose nor is this the occasion to argue whether this attitude of mind on the part of colored people is justified or not. As representatives of the race we desire only to testify that it does not exist. This state of mind has been intransfigured by by the significant fact that all though white persons were involved in the Houston affair ane the regiment to which the colored men belonged was officered entirely by white men, none but colored men, so far as we have been able to learn, have prosecuted or condemned.
We desire also to respectfully to call to your attention the fact that there were mitigating circumstances for the actiou of these men of the 24th Infantry. Not py any premeditatee design and without cause did these men do what they did at Houston, but by aiong series of humiliating and harrasing incidents, culminating in the brutal assult on Corporal Baltimore,they were goaded to sudden and frenzied action-
The President received the delegation very cordially and granted them an audience lasting half ad hour. He assvred them, in effect, that he would careiully examine the record in the case of the condemned men and would give the whole matter his sympa-thetic attention.

Negroes, you know the necessity of team-work in time of war. Never has, in the history of the United States, organization been so absolutely imperative and recent events in the industrial, mining and commercial world have shown the driving power of effective organization, intelligently directed than at the present time. Many and numerous have the calls been made for the Negroes by our government. Many more will be made before this war is over. Get yourselves ready for the effectiveness of an organization depends absolutely upon the co-operation it receives from the individual. When all Negroes combine and work hand-in-hand, there is nothing that we cannot do. We invite the Negroes to assist in the providing of an ambulance for the war by the Negroes of this city. The Colored part of the Woman's Service League will be glad to receive your help.

THINGS THAT WE LAUGH AT
Inanimate Objects, Because of Association, Used by Comedians to Cause People to Smile.
The intrinsic humor possessed by inanimate objects is a study in itself. A person has but to lift up a string of sausages to make it smile. There must be some connection association of ideas, writes Ree Wagner in the Saturday Evening, that has always made of sausage a favorite prop for the comedian. The popularity of spaghetti as a laugh provoker probably lies in the great difficulty of eating it with dignity. Because of some strange significance, lawnmowers and baby carriages are potential of much mirth.
Inanimate objects are not the only facetious things in life; among the fruits and vegetables we find are comedians. We have a complete flora and fauna of comedy that every director is supposed to know. The edible props of pleasantry are the cabbage, prune and onion; while among the animals, the jackass and the mule get the longest laughs, though I believe the goat produces the strongest.
We had a stupid director who thought because a Shetland pony offered such a tremendous contrast to a mule he could hitch the two together and get a lot of laughs. It cost a bunch of money to convince this unanalytical chump that people regard these diminutive horses much as they be beautiful children; they are too sweet and cute to be subjected to the slightest indignity. Sheer beauty is never funny.

WANTED AT ONCE
In Mobile Ordnance Repair Shop.

Comfort for Sufferers in Stories of Careers of Nested Authors and Solitists.
Those who are afflicted with III-health may derive some comfort from the statement, quoted in a recent book on "Suffering and the War," that "Oleo ridge claimed that the greatest works of the nineteen centuries were all written by men of feeble health—Spinosa's 'Ethica,' Bacon's 'Novum Organum,' and Kant's 'Critique of Pure Reason.'" As another instance of the triumph of the spirit, Sir Isaac Newton, it is stated, according to London, Tit-Bita, was a most unpromising child, with a frail body and poor eyesight. "He showed no aptitude for study, and was first incited by the desire to get ahead of a boy who kicked him."
Another great writer who accomplished much despite the handicap of poor health was Herbert Spencer. Like Newton, as a boy he was backward in his studies. A new life of Spencer by Hugh Elliot says: "He was very backward as a boy in the ordinary subjects of children's lessons. . . Morally, he was extremely disobedient and contemptuous of authority." At thirteen "he found the discipline (of his school) more severe than he cared about, and ran away home to Derby again, walking 48 miles the first day." Yet as a man, "without money, without special education, without health, he produced 18 large volumes of philosophy and science of many diverse kinds, published a variety of mechanical inventions, and on endless other subjects, great and small, he set forth a profusion of new and original ideas."
MANY 'SUCKERS' IN NEW YORK
Glib Tongue About All That Is Needed to Get the Money in Eastern Metropolis.
Gullible and curious are the two chief characteristics of the smart guy, and there is no one who knows this better than the street fakir. One of those sharp-witted fakirs with a gift of gab made a cleanup in the financial district the other day, remarks the New York Tribune. He went down there just as the deckhands of the big corporations were pouring out of the skyscrapers for a bite to eat. He had a grip full of little black boxes that looked like cameras.
"Here yer are," he shouted, "for two nickels or one dime. The cutest little thing you can imagine. Stand on the sidewalk, fix this little box at the right angle, and you'll be able to look into a second-story window and see what's going on without the slightest inconvenience.
"In the old way, when you wanted to peep through a keyhole you went down on your haunches, at some personal inconvenience. Besides, there was always the danger of being shot in the eye with a hatpin or a knitting needle. Buy one of the cute little toys and you can stand on both feet, and, without endangering life or limb, you can see all that's going on in the room."
Nearly every one who stopped fished out a dime and bought one. Then a pop came along, the fakir slipped away and the crowd melted. Everybody who bought the little "camera" tried to work it 40 different ways, and then discovered that they had been stung.
MEANING OF JACOBITE TOAST
Glasses Raised to "the Little Gentleman In Velvet" Had a Peculiar Significance Centuries Ago.
"To the little gentleman in velvet" was a favorite Jacobite toast in the reign of Queen Anna. By "the little gentleman in velvet" the Jacobites meant the mole that raised the hummock against which the horse of King William III (William of Orange) stumbled while riding in Hampton court. The king was thrown heavily to the ground, breaking his collar bone. A severe illness ensued under which the king's feeble constitution gave way, and he died early in the year 1702. He left no children and the crown passed to Anne, a sister of William's deceased wife, Queen Mary, and a daughter of the deposed king, James II. It was the plan of the Jacobites to bring back to the throne James the Fretender, a son, it was claimed, of James II by his second wife, Mary of Modena. The execution of their plans was not attempted until the house of Hanover came to the throne. The attempt of the Pretender James in 1715 was a miserable failure, but the attempt of his son, Prince Charlie, in 1745, was a more formidable affair. He collected a considerable force in Scotland, invaded England and reached Derby before compelled to retreat. He was finally defeated at Culloden.
Soup Eating Lost Art
Owing to the high cost of ingredients soup eating may become a lost art. America today holds the medal for spectacular and musical soup eating. There is no nation so accomplished in the art of eating soup audibly as ours. No race of people extant can eat soup and keep up a steady conversation (without slopping it on its shirt bosom) as successfully as the American. A foreign writer once remarked that he dearly loved to hear an American eat soup. Some nations drink their broth and bouillon in silence or sop it up noiselessly with bread, thus robbing the process of all its interest. But America blows its broth cool, then musically sucks it from the spoon, allowing it to hit the base of the empty stomach with the chug of a pile driver. The way some of us strain soup through our mustaches is decidedly artistic. But, like many of the lost arts of our aboriginals, the doom of soup eating is in sight—Cartoons Maragina.
Prenneman invented Micophone. The inventor of the fundamental principle of the microphone on the modern telephone is said to have been the Abbe Rousselet, a French phonetician, born at Saint Cloud (Charente) in 1846. He became a vicar and curate at Cognac and Jarnesse, then assistant professor of French philology at the Catholic institute of Paris, and two years later he opened the first course of experimental phonetics ever established. In 1857 he was appointed director of the laboratory of experimental phonetics at the College de France, the plan for which originated with him. He is the inventor of phonetic instruments, the maker of several discoveries leading to cure deafness and stuttering and the author of a number of works on his method.

My dear Co-Worker:
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 Congriss-
man Byer phoned me that the Com-
mittee was wonderfully impressed and
had decided to recommend that the
Resolution, begging Federal Investi-
gation be taken up by Congress. Now,
we must win. God will help us if we
help ourselves. Keep at it! WORK!
PETTIONS! PETTIONS! PETTIONS 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 Petitions 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 inclosed 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 inclosed 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.
Yours for a True Democracy.

Chattanooga, Tenn., Feb. 22.—Mrs. Eula Daniels, wife of J. B. Daniels, was paid $1,040 by the city for injuries received in an accident in 1913. Mrs. Daniels fell in a ditch, over which no warning lights were displayed. In 1916 she was awarded $2,500 damages but the city appealed the suit, claiming the ditch was constructed by private individuals.
A woman is stirring a large pot of liquid in a kitchen. The pot is filled with a mixture of ingredients, and she is using a spoon to stir the contents. The pot is placed on a stove, and there are other pots and containers nearby. The woman is wearing a white shirt and dark pants.

WORTH OF MIDDLE-AGED MEN
Older Workers, Because of Skill,
Steadiness and Reliability, Out-
class Younger Fellows.
In several Western cities "young-old"
men have formed an organization that
may become nation-wide in its scope,
for the purpose of securing employ-
ment for men who have passed their
prime.
This is decidedly the day of young
men, and the man who has passed
middle life without having laid up a
competency or mastered some special
line of work is at a dreadful disadvantage.
But it has always been so. And age,
now as always, says the Christian Her-
ald, is not so much a matter of years
as of declining enthusiasm.
We have seen men on whose strong shoulders rests the burden of seven, eight and sometimes nine decades, full of unwashed power of spirit and strength when it comes to freshness and joy in the work done and the vision fulfilled.
The great work of the world is being done and always has been done by men of middle life and more. Four-fifths of the business failures are made by young men. It is ripened experience and judgment that count in the business world, as in any other.
THE WESTERN WESTERN WESTERN
In physical work the older man may be outclassed by the younger one; but in lines of work calling for skill, steadiness and reliability the older man has the advantage. There is something seriously wrong with an economic system that finds a man useless at fifty.

SLOGAN—"STOP LYNCHING AND MOB VIOLENCE BY LAW."
The Denver Star was glad to know that Mr. Harry Gant, the expert photographer of the Lincoln Motion Picture Movies of California, over which our own Noble Johnson, formerly of Colorado Springs, presides, took a few pictures of our churches, business places and charitable organizations together with the pictures of our leading club women Sunday. Denver may have a representation of this company. Watch The Star.
CITIZENS, WHAT ABOUT THE NATIONAL CONVENTION OF THE WOMEN'S CLUBS?
Without being charged with being a meddler, and at the risk of being criticised by our women, we are asking what plans have been laid for the general entertainment of our guests this summer? What citizens outside the club women will take part? Do the women of Denver and Colorado jurisdiction intend to attempt to narrow this great meeting wherein thousands of strangers will be our city's guests and visitors to their own efforts? This meeting, the first Denver has ever had, must not be used for selfish purposes, trying to peacock a few to the humiliation of the rest of citizens, but it should be conducted along big enough and broad enough lines to include both members and non-members. The reputation of Denver and Colorado is at stake and all personal, private, selfish advantage, and ambitions should sink into insignificance before our great and unified action in which all can and ought to willingly take part. More Anon. Citizens, get busy.
DARE-DEVIL RACE ACTOR
ATTRACTS NATIONAL
ATTENTION
Exhibitors, Producers, Directors and Patrons Watch Work of Race Actor With Intense Interest.
New York City, Feb. 26.—Perhaps no single incident in the history of the movie industry is attracting the national attention as that of the entry precedent of using a race actor in a vitally important role in the greatest serial feature produced by the largest producing firm in the world.
After much deliberation the heads of the great Universal Film Company decided to break away from all traditions of movie lore and select the best fitted actor out of their entire plant, regardless of influence, nationality or custom, and to fill a position that is vitally important to the ultimate success of their masterpiece.
Noble M. Johnson, the only race actor in the world playing leads, was chosen to protray the part of "Sweeney Bodin," the renegade cowpuncher, playing leading heavy in support of the famous star, Eddie Polo, in the greatest of serial feature plays. "The Bull's Eye." In this part Mr. Johnson is given the opportunity to fully demonstrate his remarkable ability and from the press and critic reports, he is more than making good.
GIVES UNCLE SAM 14 SONS—
BORDEN'S RECORD.
The Superior Court of Goldsboro, N.C., was astonished at the revelations of Witness Borden in a divorce case when the judge asked him about marriage. Borden, in answer to the judge's question, said that he had been married three times, his third wife being then living; that he was the father of 35 children, 15 by his first wife, 12 by his second wife and 8 by his present wife. That his first wife gave birth to four boys each time for 3 times, making a total of 13, and at one time his second wife presented him with 3 boys and one girl. He had 27 living children, the youngest being 22 months old, and 14 sons were in Uncle Sam's army. All voted that he had done his "bit."

NOTED RACE ORATOR FILMED BY LINCOLN COMPANY.
Roscoe Simmons to Be Shown in Pictorial Race Feature Film Now Be-ing Made By Rave Firm.
Los Angeles, Cal., Feb. 26.—(Special to The Star.)—Roscoe Simmons, that magnetic Race Orator, whose fame is rapidly spreading throughout the nation as the coming leader of the race, is to be shown upon the screen in the first Pictorial Race Feature film ever produced.
While in the city last week the camera men of the Lincoln Motion Picture Co. secured several views of Mr. Simmons which they have his permission to include in a film now in the making, and which is to be the initial film of a series showing the industrial, commercial, fraternal, religious, educational, and civic activities of the race throughout the world.
WINS HARD CASE IN LITTLETON
GEO. G. ROSS-AGAIN TRIUMPHS
—CAMPBELL IS AGAIN FREE.
Because in last October Lawyer Geo. G. Ross secured a verdict of an acquittal of an alleged larceny of two horses by one Stephen Campbell, the Under-Sheriff, McNamara, of Littleton filed and swore to a charge of perjury against Stephen Campbell, alleging that Campbell secured his freedom thru a phony and bogus bill of sale. The case came on trial Tuesday at Littleton and Lawyer Ross with only Campbell as his sole witness against one expert in handwriting and four other witnesses, secured a verdict of "not guilty" after the jury was out one hour. At the former trial the Assistant District Attorney tried the case and at the present trial District Attorney Sam Johnson, himself, personally conducted the case. Campbell is again free and is all smiles.
Secretary Thomas J. Bell, who one month ago was urged by the War Work Council to accept the position of Social Work Secretary at Camp Dodge, Des Moines, has finally decided to refuse the call and remain with the local work in Denver. He had already decided to go and was making his plans accordingly; but the Board of Directors, William E. Sweet, President, was so strongly of the opinion that Mr. Bell should remain with the Denver work that, learning that he had been offered a salary one-third greater than he had received here during the past two years, promptly increased his salary to that figure, although the budget for the year had already been made up. In addition the Board has also promised a liberal sum—all the secretary asked for—for the promotion of his religious and social work programs. With these evidences of favor and good will, and with the promise of the Committee of Management to give their full and hearty cooperation, Secretary Bell feels that a year of good, substantial and constructive work lies before the branch. He is also confident that the citizens in general, realizing the place of the Association in the community, will continue their hearty sympathy and their splendid support which has been so conspicuously manifested by the large number of men who have recently joined the Association.
Mr. L. H. Lightner, Supreme Clerk of the American Woodmen, and chairman of the branch, who was to have spoken before the meeting last Sunday afternoon on "The Texas Negro, His View of the War,' 'etc., but at the last moment was prevented from coming, will give the address next Sunday afternoon. The meeting will begin at 4 o'clock, and all will be welcome.
PUTTING A GOOD ONE OVER.
The Pond Lily Art Club is always doing the extraordinary or the unusual, so this time at Shorter A. M. E. church, March 12th, the choir boys of Company "E" of the State Industrial School of Golden, Colo., will entertain you. Come out, see and hear them and thus give encouragement to our young, ambitious and apparently neglected coming young singers of the race. Who knows but that a "Caruso" or a McDonald might develop from among them? Only 15c. Crowd Shorter; let everybody boost for our boys. Remember they are safe dear mother's neglected, boys. Make their hearts proud and swell with pride. Where is my wandering boy, tonight? (Ans.) At Shorter March 12, singing in the choir. Come, everybody!
Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
For the Eleventh Biennial Meeting of the National Association of Colored Women.
The eleventh biennial meeting of the N. A. C. W. will be held in Denver, Colorado, July 8 to 13, 1918.
Every officer, superintendent of departments, state president and delegate should present her credentials to the Committee and obtain official badge entitling her to vote as soon after arrival as possible.
The Credential Committee, Miss Georgia A. Nugent, Chairman; Mrs. Mary H. Baker, of Wyoming; Mrs. Theresa G. Macon, of Illinois; Mrs. Charlotte Hawkins Brown, of North Carolina, and Miss Roberta Dunbar, of Rhode Island, Recording Secretary, will be in session Monday, July 8, from 11 a.m. to 12 m., and from 2 to 5 p.m. The Executive Board, Miss Halle Q. Brown, Chairman, will hold their first session at 5 p.m., July 8.
Mrs. Myrtle Cook, Chairman of Program Committee, has been able to nearly complete a program which covers the newer and more striking phases of work which has been called for, due to the extraordinary time through which we are passing.
Miss Nannie H. Burroughs, Superintendent of Department for Suppression of Lynching and Mob Violence, will have a report of unusual interest to present.
The Entertainment Committee are arranging for short trips to Pike's Peak, Colorado Springs, the Garden of the Gods, and also for a mid-day luncheon to be served free to the delegates. The Committee in charge of Transportation has announced rates from the East, through Mrs. Mazle Mosselle Griffin. Mrs. G. A. Ross, of Denver, representing the West, and Mrs. Mabel Keith Howard, of South Carolina, will announce rates for the South. Information concerning board and lodging may be obtained from Mrs. M. E. Dishman, 2439 Glipin Street, Denver, Colorado, General Chairman of Arrangements for Denyer.
Among the interesting things scheduled will be the burning of the Douglas mortgage, the announcement of the Roil of Honor and the winner of the Special Tablet; also the election of the Board of Trustees to manage the Douglass Home which will pass to the entire control and management of the National Association of Colored Women.
The American Colored women should be aroused as never before, to greater activity. New duties will be placed upon our women through the Amendment to the Constitution, which will doubtless become a law at the coming session of Congress. At the smallest calculation, three million Colored women will receive the ballot, which is the greatest power that has been given us since the emancipation, to correct some of the evils that have crushed us.
Government ownership of railroads will wipe out the notorious, offensive, undemocratic Jim Crow cars, into which we have been herded during the past twenty years, regardless of rights as American citizeng.
Just now, a call is coming to you, as thrown across a deep valley. Will you, will you be there? Let the answer come: "We will, we will be there!"
All dues and per capita taxes should be in the hands of the National Treasurer, Mrs. Ida Joyce Jackson, 548 East Spring Street, Columbus, Ohio, no later than May 30, 1918.

OPEN LETTER TO FLORENCE
SCHOOL TEACHERS—LET OTH.
ERS FOLLOW EXAMPLE.
(By Ells Ross-Hutson, 1639 National
Ave., San Diego, Calf.)
Prof. C. C. Brown,
Florence, Colo.
Dear Sir:—In reading the Colorado
papers and noticing your acttions tak-
en in the school confusion, permit me
to observe that the world today is
pleading for true Democracy. Can you
say your actions toward that little Ne-
gro boy, named Freeman, were such,
as would set correct examples of the
true American spirit, which lays the
unshakeable foundation to pure De-
mocracy exemplified in love toward
one another and Justice and Liberty
to all? Can this spirit be obtained
thru such imitations of men as ‘“‘your-
self” acting as you did’ Sorry to say
that one of the great troubles of our
country today is, that it is filled with
moral cowards of that (your) class,
who only look upon some defenseless
object to prey upon. Do you think a
man of your small calibre {s the prop:
er person to be put at the head of a
training institution which deals with
innocent minds and pure hearts which
unconsciously love one another and
know obedience? What thinnk you of
yourself now?
Respectfully,
ELLA ROSS-HUTSON.
WHAT NEXT? A NEGRO

ject will be to buy, sell, dispose and

Tuesday night at Campbell's church
ten thousand shares at Sc per share

Mr. and Mrs. A. Ray left Saturday
for Akron, Colc., to make their home.
Mrs. Ray was a prominent church
worker, State Treasurer of ‘the Feder-
ation and Vice-President of the Cedar
Art Club of Boulder.
The Puellae Art Club met with Miss
Avo D. Irvin last week. These girls
are sewing and knitting. The subject
for discussion at this meeting wae,
“How .to Help Mother Hooverize.”
This club tendered the program Sun-
day night at the Baptist church.
Mrs. M. White, President of Cedar
Art Club, entertained at a five-course
dinner last Monday evening at six
o'clock as a courtesy to Mrs. Carrie
Ray. Those present were eight mem-
bers of the club and Rev. Endicott.
Spring flowers formed the table deco-
rations. Everyone enjoys being invit-
ed to the home of Mrs. White. She
is such a beautiful character, so hos-
Pitable, and loved by all.
Some of the ladies of Boulder
stopped knitting long enough last Sat-
urday evening to attend the party at
the home of Miss C. C. Bailey, which
was a most beautiful arranged and en-
joyable affair.
The Cedar Art Club was entertain-
ed at the President's home in honor of
Mrs. Ray, our Vice-President, who is
leaving our city. We regret very much
to lose such an energetic worker.
Boulder seems to be in the lead for
weddings. Now comes Mr. Ridgeway
and Miss Hattie Durbin. Who's next?
H. Alexander of Goss street is all
smiles. Why? Well, it’s a boy. All

Both the Sunday morning and evening services were well attended. We are glad to report the pastor is steadily improving, and was able to deliver both sermons Sunday. The morning discourse was "Loyalty;" text: "And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus." Mirrored to us was the selfishness, narrowness and the disloyalty of the individual to Christ, and to his followman—if while seeking following, all self-interest is not lost to the cause of Christ. Earnestly exhorting Christian "loyalty," the pastor painted John, the "Old Master," sacrificing his friends to Christ. He sought not a following in self-interest, but his seeking was that he might point them to a cause higher than himself. The forceful ar-
```markdown
```
gument of "loyalty" was timely and instructive, and that it had its beneficial effect was evidenced by the hearty response to the call of the pastor for the presence of personal "soul-winning workers" at conference meeting, 4:00 p. m. These conference meetings with pastor and workers are continued each Sunday at 4:00 p. m. "The Question of a Startled Soul" was the evening topic. In the evening service there were two additions to the church, namely, Sisters Ella Bellemy and Jones.
Sick listed: Sisters Lulu Butler, Anna Gwyn, Bro. Faucet, Sister Arnie Branford is improving.
We are glad that Sister Eppright and Bro. Granberry were able to be in the congregation Sunday morning.
There were several visitors in the congregation Sunday. We will be pleased to welcome them again.

German Police Unable to Cape With the Situation Until Canines Were Pressed Into Service.
The prospects of famine in Germany are so serious that food hoarding is growing among the wealthy to an extent that has given the government no end of trouble. The German police have exhausted every means of detecting the hoarders except one, and that is to use highly trained police dogs on their trail.
This is now being done, and the dogs are proving themselves invaluable in running down violators of the food laws. Near Berlin, according to a correspondent, the dogs recently located a man who had been plifering from vegetable patches of truck gardeners. The dogs led the police to the house where the stolen vegetables were hidden.
In Munich a constable attempted to seize a man caught with 50 pounds of meat brought from an illegal slaughter house. The man escaped, leaving the burden behind, but was tracked to a hay loft by police dogs. When the officer returned to the spot where the meat had been left he found the meat gone. The police dogs were again called upon and they located the meat in a house where it had been hidden by a woman.

Money in Spent Bullets.
Near Otis Hill, in Hingham, Mass, where once stood the target and rifle range, the highroad excavator has scooped from the hilly ground several hundred pounds of lead from bullets found there, and one young man is credited with having obtained enough lead to fill an ash-sifter, his first hour's work netting him $1.80.

The French government requires 200,000 gallons of alcohol a day in the manufacture of certain high explosives. Annual consumption will amount to 12,500,000 gallons more than France produced before the war, and the French government has been compelled to buy 17,500,000 gallons abroad.
In Broiling Steak.
In broiling steak or chops the fire sometimes dies down too quickly. When this happens sprinkle a little granulated sugar over the coals. This intensifies the heat and the smoke from the sugar imparts a delicious flavor to the meat.
Dry Hair on Wire.
To enable a woman to speedily dry her hair after washing it a Pittsburgh inventor has produced a wire frame to be placed on the head that spreads the hair.
Wireless Storm Warnings.
One of the objects of an Australian Antarctic expedition will be the establishment of a meteorological station to give warnings by wireless of the severe storms which sweep far southern seas.
Laundry Hints.
In washing white silk or chamois gloves the yellowish look can be avoided by rubbing them with the white of an egg while they are still wet.
Roll Pastry on Marble.
French cooks prepare pastries upon a marble slab. All the ingredients are ice cold and mixed on cold marble to make the product flaky.
Might Try This.
Cinnamon and cloves put into small bags and added to boiling fat gives a great flavor to doughnuts that are fried in it.

JACKSON-HICKS WEDDING.
Just as we were going to press last Thursday afternoon, the announcement came to us that Plem Jackson, an old and respected citizen, and Mrs. Jennie Hicks, an energetic and ambitious lady, were being bound together into the holy bonds of matrimony. The invitation was extended to us to be present, but business pressure prevented us. However, we heartily extend our congratulations and wish for them every happiness.

REV. WASHINGTON PUSHING AHEAD IN CALIFORNIA
The Star gladly announces that now and then we are gratified by the constant good reports noticed in the California papers about our former Denver citizen, Rev. Washington, and his great success in San Francisco. This time he, thru receiving the exceptional services of the wonderful lady evangelist, Rev. Mrs. M. C. Harris of Cincinnati, Ohio, has stirred up San Francisco. We congratulate our Reverend on his great success.
Emmett Collins of Rock Springs, Wyo., was a welcome visitor of The Denver Star.
The American Woodmen Camp No. 1, Denver, met at Old Colony Hall, Thursday evening, February 28th, in a call meeting for the purpose of obligating twenty new members. This makes our membership now well above the 250 mark and in another month we confidently expect the membership to number not less than 300.
The attendance at this call meeting was very large indeed and all had a very pleasant time exchanging fraternal greetings and partaking of refreshments.
Prof. V. N. Wolfskill of Salt Lake, who recently passed thru this city en route to Chicago, returned Saturday and spent a few days in Denver with friends. He was delightfully entertained by Mr. Morgan Jackson and Mr. H. C. Horn. He was also a pleas-

COLORADO BOYS ELBOWING WAY UP IN CAMP SHERMAN, O.
Albert F. Ross and Mr. Jones of Greeley, Colo., have made an enviable record in Camp Sherman, Ohio, with the 317th Engineer corps; the former as chief divisional stenographer and the latter as an expert auto mechanic. The Eastern Negroes are extremely jealous because the Western Negroes "who know their stuff" constantly push ahead and gain favor with the white officers of the 92nd Div. over which General Ballou commands.
AMERICAN WOODMEN
LOSES STENOGRAPHER
H. J. York, formerly supervisor of the certificate department of the Supreme Camp of the A. M., left Tuesday evening for Camp Funston, Kan., where he will be clerk and stenographer in the Division Ordnance office, 92nd Div. 317, Mobile Ordnance corps. The Star is greatly concerned over her Colorado appointments; as yet, so far, all have made and are making good.
COMING TO DEAR OLD COLORADO
Mrs. Wade A. Jones, who for the past winter months has been South visiting her relatives and those of her husband, touching Talladega College, Birmingham, Mobile and Montgomery, Ala., as well as New Orleans, La., and Nashville, Tenn., and St. Louis and Kansas City, Mo., is now speeding toward "Dear Old Colorado," where it is a privilege to live, and will be here on about April 4. She writes she hears Caapelton calling her as she and the humiliating and extreme segregation and Jim Crowism have repeatedly clashed. She asked to be remembered to all her friends.
The news report is out that President of the U. S. has extended clemency to our colored soldiers. No news report was made by our Denver dallies. Strange, isn't it?
Mr. J. C. McWright of Alamosa, who has been very ill with pneumonia, is reported slightly improving.
The "Lillinokalani" Self Improvement club was newly organized in Pueblo. More details later.
Rev. Jeltz of Cheyenne and A. Wayman Ward of Colorado Springs, also Mrs. Wm. G. Gudgell of Colorado Springs, are visitors this week in Denver.
