No doubt our fellow citizens in Tennessee abhor the misdeeds of the Germans and want to win the war just as much as we do.
But when a squad of them torture and then burn a Negro as happened last month, it breaks teeth out of our protestation that the Prussians are deeper sunk in barbarism than other people, and must be beaten to save the moral standards of the world.
It our fellow patriots in Tennessee would punch up their state authorities to catch and hangsome of the fellow citizens who burned the Negro it would help us to maintain our just and proper attitude about the Prussians.
The Federal Constitution (Amendment VIII) forbids cruel and unusual punishments, even for Negroes, but the Federal government has been used to rely on the states to make prohibition good. But if states won't do it why should not the Federal authorities take hold?—Life. the black man a chance. In cities like Detroit, on the other hand, one sees a Negro motorman almost every few minutes on the most important streets. The best he could hope to get here is a porter's job.
"The discrimination seems even more unfair when one considers that Negro porters have actually chopped tickets and sold them for hours at a time in an emergency, evidently to the company's satisfaction.
"The commercial field, too, still remains almost rigid in its attitude toward the Negro. I have been surprised that the department stores do not employ Negro women clerks One of our largest shops has several Negro women saleswomen now."
The Negroes in the trades, Jones says, want a square deal too, from the unions.
"We would have Negro labor handled by the American Federation," is his view, "in the same manner as white labor; when workmen are returning to work after a successful strike and when union workers apply for jobs. We would urge, too, the appointment of one or two competent Negroes in the department of labor to serve as assistants in each of the bureaus in adjusting and distributing Negro labor to meet war and peace needs."
Despite the revolution in the industrial field, the prejudice in the professions, accord ing to this authority, has scarcely been jogged. While a good Negro doctor is as like ly as ever to get white patients there is not a hospital in New York that will receive the interne. He has to go to Washington, to Chicago or to some other Western city for his hospital experience. 'Negro teachers, of whom there are 125 to 150 in the public schools of New York, fare better. So do lawyers, who often build up a practice of white clients, mostly foreigners.
WAR CIVES THE NEGRO A CHANCE
Go North, Young and Old, Go North, is the Cry of the South
Within a few weeks New York will begin to receive its quota of the Negro spring drive. Thousands of Negro workers will join the three hundred thousand who have already crossed the Mason and Dixon line during the last eighteen months. For a veritable revolution in Negro labor conditions here has spread the Southern cry: "Go North, young and old; go north!"
Of this revolution, Eugene Kinckle Jones, for seven years executive secretary of the National League on Urban Conditions Among Negroes, can tell you. Two years ago the telephone in the tree employment bureau of his organization used to tinkle with demands for porters, elevator operators and domestic servants. Today it brings so many offers of jobs for skilled and semi-skilled Negro workers that the bureau is planning to concentrate entirely on serving them.
"We now have calls for machinists, engineers, draughtsmen, carpenters, shoemakers and brass molders." Mr. Jones explains. "Such opportunities were unheard of for the Negro before the war. Aside from the many workers in munitions plants near New York, certain normal industries have let down the bars, too. One factory, for instance where steam pumps are manufactured, now employs a hundred Negroes, wheaeas two and a half years ago but two could be found on the payroll.
"As for Negro women, many fields have been thrown open for them. There used to be little demand for them outside of domestic service. We have placed designers, machine operators, milliners, toymakers and even stenographers in private firms, in federal and municipal positions. The garment trades and the silk industry are employing an increasing number. "Formerly Negroes were seldom hired, except in the traditional occupations, to do even unskilled industrial labor Foreigners were preferred in the cruder tasks in the factory on the railroad, etc. Today the Negro has a chance to do the class of work that is the foundation for skill. Our main objection to menial labor is that it leads nowhere."
In the local transportation companies, Jones declares, he has beed astonished to find the same old solid wall of prejudice against the advancement of Negro employees. "It seems strange to us," he says, "that during this time of stress and great scarcity of intelligent labor the Interborough is almost unapproachable when it comes to giving
AS BAD AS GERMANS
To Win N.A.A.C.P. Victory
Ninety branches of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, scattered throughout the country in all the principal cities are to join from April 17 to 27 in a nation-wide "Moorfield Storey Drive' for 50,000 members. This membership drive has been undertaken by these branches as a testimonial to Moorfield Story of Boston, the Association's President, in recognition of his service to the colored people of the nation in the Louisville Segregation Case. In that case compulsory residential segregation of colored people was declared unconstitutional by unanimous decision of the Supreme Court of the United States, handed down last November. The colored people and their friends declare the anti-segregation victory to be the greatest legal landmark affecting the Negro since the Fifteenth Amendment was enacted.

The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People was found on Lincoln Birthday, 1900, and has its headquarters in New York. From its New office an appeal for public support in its membership campaign is made in the following statement issued today:
"The National Association for the advancement of Colored People appeals to all fair minded citizens,white and colored, to join with it in the effort to secure simple justice under the law for our colored citizens. They represent over one tenth of our American citizenship. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is making a nation wide appeal for membership not on any narrow grounds of race or class privilege, but on the broad ground of justice, of equal protection of all citizens under the law without distinction of race or creed or class. The maintenance of these just principles is of equal interest to all classes of citizens and an essential element of national strength. We therefore feel justified in asking all classes of citizens to join our Association for this common principal of justice and civil liberty The Association feels that the American people have a right to be proud of the one hundred thousand colored soldiers now serving in the regular army and the national army. As a result of an active campaign on the part of this Association and officers training camp for colored men was inaugurated at Des Moines, Ia., as a consequence of which nearly seven hundred Negroes officers were commissioned
The Association, through an anti-lynching fund contributed by believers in law and order, investigates as many cases as possible of lynching and mob violence, gives publicity to the fact regarding them, and endeavors to arouse public opinion against the mob spirit. Annually, through the gift of the the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Association, the Spingarn Medal is awarded for the highest or noblest achievement by a Negro American during the preceding year.

MOORFIELD STOREY DRIVE
"DRIVE" FOR LIBERTY
National Organizer Whaley issues appeal to Colored American in behalf of Great Colored Liberty Congress to be held soon at Nation's Capitol.
To Colored Americans of the U. S. A.: Last June the 13th the Colored National Liberty Conference of Boston was formed and among the officers elected I was chosen Grand National Organizer. This organization is the out come of deliberate and profound consideration of educated, far seeing, practical and unselfish race patriots. Delegates from every section of the county composed this conference of one day's session that closed with a memorable public meeting in Faneuill hall, Cradle of Liberty Boston Mass.
No Pay for Legal Services in Segregation Case, Merely Join Fighting Army of Freedom
The unique object of this conference is to launch a mighty movement to get and secure for their share of the World Democracy. Brother Americans, our country has gone into this world war with Democracy and Liberty for all mankind as her slogan, while fifteen million are brutally and horribly oppressed. Shall we the native and "to the manor born' Americans stand for this? In the name of the "Declaration of Independence" I appeal to you all to join with our National Conference in their great movement to hold a great Liberty Congress in Washington, D. C., the last week in May 1918 to procure and secure for our selves and our descendants that Liberty promised by the American Declaration of Independence guaranteed by the God of Nature.
For Liberty and Justice for all,
ALLEN W. WHALRY.
Jim-Crow Line From Washington to Baltimore
Washington.—The Washington, Baltimore & Annapolis Electric Line, running between here and Baltimore, has inaugurated a "Jim crow" service, compelling Colored people riding from Washing ton to Baltimore and Annapolis and return to ride "jim crow." There are more than 6,000 Colored soldiers at Camp Mead, on this, and al though these boys are soon to leave to fight "to make the world safe for democracy," they and their friends and relatives are jim crowed to and from camp, and that too in spite of the fact that the District of Columbia, or Mary land, has no "jim crow" law.

NEGROES ARE BUILDING WAR SHIPS
Colored Works Side by Side with Whites--Earns $90 per Week
The March 16th issue of "Colliers" contain an article on shipbuilding at Newport News, Va., by Edward Hungerford, which clearly shows the important part Negroes are playing in this great war. Hungeford writes: "And today fully one half of the 7,800 men and boys who work under Homer Ferguson in the Newport News shipyard are black skinned. White men and black men work not only in the same yard but in the same building. And this is the south—the Old Dominion, if you please. On a huge traveling crane that runs the length of the yard's biggest erecting shop a white man operates the motors overhead; a Negro on the floor minds the grips. In the yard,outside on a huge ship coming into being white painters work upon the upper side of the deck; black painters upon the under surface of the same deck.
Do you get me? Something must be conceded to the traditions of the South.
Don't you dare come down from the North to this yard and tell us that the black man in the South is an industrial failure—you who only use him as an elevator boy or a parlor car porter or a chauffeur and refuse to give him an equal industrial opportunity with white labor. How long would one of our expert machinists last at Taunton or at Patter son or at Schenectady? What opportunity would the unions give him? Can one of our good riveters go North and join the union? He cannot. And otherwise he cannot drive a single rivet.
Some of the Negro riveters make as high as $90 a week upon occasions, but these are exceptions. All however, are drawing big pay. There is also a special cantonment and a hut provided by the Y.M.C. A.—Ex.
Widely Known Evangelist Apologies in court
S. Douglas McDuffie, the self-styled "Worl's renowned, most eminent and noted evan gelist of the race," answered to a charge of assault in Justice Lee Daniel's court Tuesday morning on information sworn to by Mrs. Laura Mills. Strong pressure was brought to bear on the complainant by followers of the preacher to induce Mrs. Mills not to prosecute him, but the case was called and after the evange list virtually pleaded guilty and apologies for his conduct promising to be good, the case was dismissed by Judge —Tulsa, Okla. Star.
By Roe L. Hammond
(Mr. Hammond was a member of a party of fourteen who went to Europe in October and returned about December 1. Of this number ten were members of Goes. The eleven were guests of the British, Freach, and Belgian. Governments much of the time and were escorted by representatives of these Governments, up to draw the battle lines and were shown many other official courtesies. Mr. Hammond is publisher of the Daily and Triweekly Tribune of Fremont, Neb., and is filling many public speaking engagements at the present time.)
Premier Lloyd George never coined a truer epigram than that "We must go on or go under."
How the war is "going on" can be understood, even in part, only by those who have been near to it, which privilege I recently had. That it is the most colossal tragedy in human history is proved by a glance at any phase of it.
America's part in the struggle is being performed because America cannot avoid it. Autocracy is running amuck and we stand in its road. Either it stalks triumphant over all that we have been taught to hold sacred and dear or we and those with us slay the dragon from whose red jaws blood is dripping. We and it cannot live in the world together. I have seen England, France and Belgium battling with the beast. Now my own country is sending its men into the fray and the effort and the sacrifices that are being made abroad will soon be witnessed here. We may not see here the actual fighting. Let us hope not. But we cannot escape the other appalling features.
England is vindicating her traditions and her ideals. She is not fighting for territorial expansion. This is by no means as vital or essential to her as is proof of the binding nature of her compacts. The preservation of Belgian neutrality drew her into the struggle. For this her soldiers are battling and her great navy is steamed up ready for the master stroke; for this her women are working in field and factory and are pouring out their merciful ministrations in innumerable hospitals.
France is making the great sacrifice. Paris, which sets the styles for the world, is wearing black as a symbol of sorrow, and the world is adopting it, for all the world is mourning. But Paris and France, though in tears, are not without hope. They are looking eagerly forward to victory, when the invading Huns are driven from French soil and the lost provinces of Alsace and Lorraine will be restored to their rightful owners. The coming of the American troops has given them new courage. With unexamined bravery they are holding the line until the strength of America can be hurled against the foe. The republic still echoes with the wild acclaim given to General Pershing and his expeditionary force. It will be a mighty task for the United States to measure up to French expectations.
Riding as I recently did up and down the whole battle front in France and Flanders, I saw much of the suffering France has her heroically endured. Her ruined cities and towns, her devastated territory, her dead soldiers, her outraged women, her tortured children, all cry out for vengeance. Every reported atrocity of the German army is true, and very much more. I got much evidence from eye witnesses of unspeakable barbarities. All the waters of the seven seas can never wash away the foul stains.
In Belgium, at a reception given by King Albert, I asked Ambassador Brand Whitlock what word could be taken back to the people of America. He said: "It is difficult to put it in a word, but this is to be said of the Germans: they disregard every sentiment of honor and integrity, everything we hold sacred and dear. They have violated with utter impunity every agreement I have ever made with them." The conclusion from this and a flood of other like testimony is that "we must go on or go under." No compromise or settlement with the Hohenzollers will be more than "a scrap of paper." The United States has one supreme duty at this hour. That is to furnish the money and the man power to defeat the arch enemy of liberty and of the peace of the world.
THE WOMAN ON THE DOLLAR.
It is generally conceded that women speak their minds freely. The woman on every American dollar that goes toward buying Liberty Bonds will be able to talk eloquently to the whole world.

The Star is wondering what has
been done? How much money is in
the bank subject to check? How many
entertainments planned; how many
different ways and means are provid-
ed so that the money can be constant:
ly coming in? Who is working, who
is bluffing, talking and doing noth-
ing? Has the Art Committee received
all of its displays? How many autos
have been promised and for what?
Who is seeing about the side trips?
‘These things may not be just our bust-
ness, but we are little uneasy about
the apparent indifference of some.

The money for 1,000 tickets must be shown before we make the gift. This is Denver's first lady Quartette and we are proud of its leader, a Denver girl, Mme. Hicks Le Noir.

Mrs. Jennie Hicks Le Noir is certainly bringing out the Y. W. C. A. Quartette. They have already ten engagements, some out of the city and some in the city. Colorado Springs and Pueblo will hear them and probably Canon City and Boulder. The Double Quartette will sing May 14th.

She started all alone and is working hard for the "Y." who'll be one out of a thousand to pack Shorter, May 14th? Will you?
We take both pride and pleasure in urging the public to attend the Mardi Gras party to be given by Denver's Branch of the N. A. A. C. P. at Old Colony Hall, next Thursday night. This Association has a record for things well done for the benefit of the Negro that appeals to all.
The splendid officers' training camp at Des Moines, Iowa, from which over 600 Negroes were given commissions in our National army, was brought about solely through the ceaseless toll and efforts of this body. The residential segregation of Negroes in Louisville, St. Louis, Baltimore and even Denver, would have been an established fact today but for the fight of the N. A. A. C. P. It has thrown the spotlight of publicity up the East St. Louis riots, the Memphis and Waco horrors, and driven the cowardly leaders to cover. Show your loyalty by being one of them any to join

NEWS OF TRINIDAD.
The great Union Revival services of the St. Paul's Baptist and Grace A. M. E. Churches, came to a close Friday evening the 29th, and it is evident beyond any reasonable doubt, that the twenty nights series was the greatest religious movement known among our people in Trinidad. 14 souls were gathered into the Bingdom of Jesus Christ, as a net gain for our labor. The success of the campaign is not measured by the number of accessions to the two churches, but the real spirit of revival which permeatied the church, exceeded by far overshadowing every other effort at soul-winning, was the spirit of fellowship and Christian love. The Doctor S. Robert Maguinez, the popular pastor of Grace A. M. E. Chapel, proved to be an able evangelist and powerful preacher, and for two nights, he stood in the first line trenches, and under orders from his Lord and Master he never failed to deliver the message that stirred the church, reclaimed the backslider and won the sinner for Christ and His Kingdom. The Baptist Minister, Rev. I. Harrison Wallace, suffered from a severe cold and hoarseness almost from the first night but was able to close the campaign with his sledgehammer blows against sin and un-Godliness with such telling effect that Trinidad and the community in general will never forget some of those soul-stirring messages, which characterizes him as a pastor and preacher who needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.
The St. Paul's Baptist church, with an overflowing audience witnessed its first funeral service with the remains of Rev. Linzie Burrell, of Tobasco, Colorado, who found his last resting place in Trinidad. The message of comfort and consolation was delivered by the pastor, Rev. I. Harrison Wallace. Theme: The Sorrow of Hope. The message truly came as a healing balm to every heart, that ever knew deep, heart, sorrow. 1st Thess. 4:13. It will rejoice the heart of friends to know that the Rev. S. R. Maguinez and wife and the Rev. I. H. Wallace will spend the week of April 8th in Denver. (The Reporter.)

CHURCH NOTES.
Mrs. Viola Washington
Easter dawned beautifully, and the setting of the clocks one hour ahead did not effect prompt attendance at service, for really on time a large congregation was present and seeming eager to hear the story of the resurrected Saviour. Rev. Over occupied the pulpit during the morning hour—the impressive and exceedingly interesting sermon was enjoyed by everyone. The text was, "But now is Christ risen from the dead" I cor. 15-20. While talking of the resurrection, that the children might understand, the pastor used as an object lesson, tiny seed, bulbs, and then the flowers, perfect and in their full glory. These illustrations were as instructive to the adults of the congregation as they were to the children. There were two additions to the church, namely, Theodore Johnson, and Mrs. Myrtle Daily. Wallie May Moore was baptized Sunday morning.
Rev, P. R. Washington visited and preached to us Sunday evening. The soul-winning campaign begins Sunday. Sick-listed: Sister Anna Gynn, Bro. Hodges, Sister Lulu Muse, Bro. C. S. Muse, Sister J. P. Blackwell, Sister Priscilla Williams, Bro. Thos. Willis. Bro. Curtis Harris was able to be in the Sunday services. Bro. Clayton Myers was taken to St. Lukes Hospital early Monday Morning and underwent operation for appendicitis.
WOMEN'S ACTIVITIES
Mrs. Lexie A. Brooks.
The Women's Bible Class will meet Thursday at the usual time.
We hope to see all members present and on time. These lessons are very helpful and those who have attended find themselves much benefitted.
The Mission Circle will also meet at three-fifteen Thursday. Come early and bring a new member with you.
Let us not forget our coming revival, and our individual duty.
There is need for prayer that the people of God will turn and acknowledge again the ideals of God—the ideals of unity, of purity and of self-sacrificing service. We must accept these ideals as the practical plan in our daily living.
When one looks on the corruption that is in the world and the forces for evil, there is a feeling of helplessness. This is need for prayer that the omnipotent God will do what impotent man cannot. Man seems to be at the end of his resources. God is not. There is no failure where there is faithful praying. The problems of today are too great for human wisdom—the problems of peace, of reconstruction, of national government and international co-operation. It is time to seek Divine strength and guidance. It is time to call to prayer was sounded to unite Christians everywhere in humble acknowledgement of sins, in earnest desire to understand and sympathize with the plans of Almighty God for the betterment of mankind.

The Easter program was rendered
by the Sunday School in the afternoon
and a nice crowd was out to hear the
children. The church was nicely de-
corated for which we thank the com-
mittee. Some of the churches of the
city met at Scotts M. E. Church a few
Sundays ago and perfected an organiz-
ation known as the Welfare Mission,
the object will be to help the weaker
churches of the city and do Mission
work also. The roster of officers will
appear in the next issue, also time
and place of next meeting.
Our Supt. of the Sunday School was
able to be present with us last Sunday
and we were glad to welcome him
back in our midst.
April 7, 11 a. m. "Preaching."
5:30 p. m. "Post-Easter Program."
The services of the Sabbath beginning tomorrow until the end of October will be changed from 5 o'clock to 5:30 p. m. according to the present time. Members and friends are requested to observe the change.
The People's Presbyterian Church closed its presbyterial year last Sabbath in a better condition in every respect than it has ever been for the last nine years.
The Colored Mercantile Co. at Five Points opened Thursday for business with a large crowd in attendance. The well-packed shelves, the courteous treatment, the fresh groceries and meats appealed to the great concourse of people.
CAMPBELL.
The Rev. S. R. Maguinez will conduct a two weeks revival meeting at Campbell chapel beginning Sunday April 7, continuing nightly through Sunday the 14th, closing with the 3rd quarterly meeting, April 21. All people are invited.
We had a glorious Easter day at Campbell chapel last: Sunday. The four men and young women added to the church membership were all converts.
The pastor preached in the morning upon "The Risen Christ." The Junior choir furnished good music. At 3 p.m. the Sunday School rendered its jubilee program under dissection of Mrs. Lydia Smith-Ward with Mrs. Myrtle Moore and Miss Stella Ried as organist and pianist respectively. The young folks a Mid themselves credit in the redition of the program. The Sunday School collection ran over forty dollars. The Sunday School processional was led by Supt. Older Jackson.
Beginning with Sunday, the A. C. E. League will meet at 7 o'clock and reaching at 8 p.m.
At the last meeting of the Committee of Management held last Tuesday evening, the Treasurer's report shows ed every bill paid, both back and current, and a balance in the treasury. This is the first time the branch has been absolutely clear of debt since it was opened over two years ago, and everybody naturally felt happy over the result. The membership of the branch is 201. The Easter programs at the different churches, together with the perfect weather, tended to lessen the at

Regret Interference With Nature. Australia is regretting the laws passed some years ago ordering the slaughter of hawks, owls, carrion crows or other birds that prey on young animals and birds, says a Sydney dispatch to the Cleveland Press
Seashore cities—small and sleepy villages in winter, great, bustling cities in summer—are now so numerous that they can hardly be counted. They dot the coast from Maine to Florida; the gulf coast has any number of pretty, salubrious bathing spots, and the Pacific coast, from Gray's Harbor to San Diego, abounds in ocean resorts. The gulf coast and the lower Pacific coast have the advantage, however, of all-the-year-round bathing; the Atlantic coast season is about three months only.
tendance at the meeting last Sunday afternoon. The speaker was the Rev. P. R. Washington of Boley, Okla. He spoke briefly on conditions as they now exist in the state and also in the town. Accompanied on the piano by Mitsa Ward, Mr. Jacob Reid sung "The Holy City." At the meeting next Sunday afternoon Mr. T. O. Mason will give an address on "The Colored Man as a business man in the community." The meeting will begin at 4 o'clock, and will close at five. All will be welcome.
Y. W. C. A. NOTES.
Easter Sunday a large audience enjoyed the program resented by Mrs. Vernal Barnett. The double quartet sang; the girls voices blended beautifully.
April th the Vesper Services will be led by Mrs. Norris. An excellent program has been prepared.
Monday night will be a night with Tennyson. The following program will be rendered: quotations from Tennyson, members; Vocal Solo, Mrs. Pearl Rose; Life of Tennyson, Miss E. Layton; Story, Miss I. Chapman; Joem, Mrs. B. Lampkin.
The quartet sang at the Central Christian Church, Tuesday afternoon and at the Central Y. W. C. A. Friday night. They have engagements to sing at Oaks Home, Colorado Springs, and a number of other places. The second Sunday in April they will render a sacred program at Central Baptist church.
The Sleeping Beauty cantata is well worth hearing. From the sale of tickets we are looking forward to a cannacity house.
Every woman and girl should join the Y. W. C. A. It is the only organization of, by and for women. Every woman and girl is welcome in its membership.
Knitting class Tuesday afternoon.
The grade school girls spent a fine day at the riffle range last Saturday afternoon. They gave the boys 30 pies. Captain Fallings delivered an instructive address to the girls on Patriotism.
TROOP 50 NOTES.
We are going to assist in the Third Liberty Loan Drive, which starts Saturday.
Every scout report at scout headquarters Saturday eve in full uniform at 6:15 o'clock sharp, for big demonstration at the Auditorium.
Mr. Perkins, our efficient assistant scout master, left Sunday night for Camp Funston to take war work with the Y. M. C. A.
The troop organized two ball teams last week and are rapidly getting into shape.
The mothers are forming an auxiliary to the boys, which is much needed.
THE FARMER AND THE WORLD WAR
THE FARMER AND THE WORLD WAR
(Mr. Waters, an agricultural authority, formerly president of the Kansas State Agricultural College and at present editor of the Kansas City Weekly Star, was in Europe when the World War began.) No class of men in this country should be more interested in the success of the war than the farmers. The spirit of the farmer is and always has been the essence of democracy, and this war is being fought, as the President has so fittingly stated, to make the world safe for democracy. No undemocratic civilization has ever given the farmer a square deal. A world unsafe for democracy is a world unsafe for the farmer.
With His interests thus at stake, the farmer may well invest, to the limit of his financial ability, in the Liberty Bonds which the government issues to help insure success in this great struggle. It is true that he is making his land produce its full measure of crops, as a service to the nation. It is true that he has given and is giving his sons to fight in the great cause. But these alone are not enough. If every man would do his best in whatever industry he is engaged in, or even if every man could enlist for actual combatant service, there would still be the need for money. The example of Russia shows the hopelessness of carrying on war without money. The citizens of the United States—all the citizens—must get back of the United States with every financial resource they possess. Aside from the fact that they represent patriotic service, Liberty Bonds are the surest investment in the world. The credit of the United States—better and greater than the credit of any other enterprise on earth—guarantees the interest on these bonds and guarantees the payment of the principal upon maturity. They are the one investment that drouth, lack of labor, financial panic, or any other contingency can in no wise affect.
The farmers have at all times been wise investors; they have also been loyal, whole-hearted patriots. Because of these facts the country is counting on the farmer. I am confident it is not counting in vain.
BOND V8. BILL.
Which would you rather have, a $100 Liberty Bond or a $100 bill? Quick, now! Answer right up. "The $100 bill?" You're wrong again. Sure, you could spend it. But that isn't the point. A bond will save it. A Liberty Bond bears interest; a bill does not. Currency or money in the bank is taxable; the Liberty Bond is subject only to inheritance tax and surplus war profits tax. It escapes state, county and city tax. If you lose a registered $100 Liberty Bond its value is insured to you; while, if you lose a bill, "Good Night!"

The ridescence of nacre, or mother-of-pearl, is a matter of form and not actual color. In fact, all "changeable" colors are more or less the result of form even where there is pigmentation beneath, such as in certain ribbed silks. When sunlight bears directly upon finely ribbed metal, as a file, there is the same play of colors.
In the case of mother-of-pearl an interesting experiment has been made. An impression of the pearl was taken upon pure white wax. It was then found that the apparently smooth surface of the pearl had still sufficient irregularities to impress upon the wax a surface that resulted in similar color manifestations.—Edmin Tarrisse.
Regret Interference With Nature.
These have now been almost wiped out, with the result, as described by a recent writer, that decaying bodies, numerous on sheep farms, have been left to be demolished by the larvae of blowfiles, which have now increased to such an appalling extent as to threaten the sheep on the runs with destruction, the animals becoming "flybown" and eaten up alive by this dangerous pest.

Third Liberty Loan
THE ENEMY
WE MUST MEET
By William Allen White
(Mr. White, editor, author and King of the war and all of its many angles while on an extended visit to the various battle lines of the Allied armies.)
Back of the German lines every ounce of food is conserved, and distributed with fairly equitable precision; every yard of cloth is numbered and is entered into the war strength of the empire. Every pennyweight of German coal is handled with scientific care, and the one end and aim of all this autocratic control of food and clothing and heat is the winning of the war. There is no other purpose in the German mind. Every German mark is a German soldier; every grain of gold is doing its full share to work out that indomitable purpose.
Here in America we must realize that the war will not be won on any front, but in our own hearts. This is a clash of civilizations. We must develop in our hearts a democratic purpose as strong and as carefully directed as this autocratic purpose of Germany. We, too, must make soldiers of our corn stalks, make defenders of our wool and cotton and silk, make every pound of coal an American pound, and we must make bullets of our pennies. If we fail to develop this democratic purpose in the eye to eye, knee to knee, hand to hand, struggle on the front, which, after all, only reflects the strength of our conviction, then our civilization will go down. To fail to support our soldiers with ammunition, with food, with clothing, with coal, will weaken them for the great conflict at the great moment, and that weakening will come from our hearts at home. It will come if we are slow with our financial support of the men. The Liberty Loan furnishes us with the only way we home-stayers can practically show our purpose. Our patriotism will be measured by our performance toward the Liberty Loan. What we lend to our country in this time of need will measure our love of the freedom our fathers bought. It is at stake. The autocratic purpose of Germany, iron willed and yet unbroken, aimed at world conquest is threatening us. What is freedom worth to you? It is worth what you lend to your government in this hour of its awful need.
Your Choice?
bonds or
bondage?
Will you lend your
money and be free -
or
hoard it now and pay
it out in Tribute when
Liberty is lost?
IS AMERICA AWAKE?
As much as has been said and written in America about the World-War in Europe, it is doubtful if America is yet awake.
A man who returned from Europe six months ago, said, "The farmers of America are feeding to their cattle today better food than millions of people in Germany and Austria have had at times. These people whose governments are fighting us are subsisting on cow beets and straw bread. All Europe is short-rationed and hungry.
This is our war from now on. What happens in Europe is America's deepest concern. There is not enough food in the world. Either our soldiers must skimp their rations or we must skimp ours; either they must do without some necessities or we must do without some of our luxuries.
Count on the Tomorrows. What will your business be worth if we should lose the war tomorrow? What would you give for a farm in Russia today? What would you give for a farm in America if conditions were such as they are in Russia today? Help produce, help conserve, and help fight by buying Liberty Bonds, for "he also fights who helps a fighter fight."
ABYSSINIA STILL HAS COPTIC RULE
That the war has affected even the old kingdom of Abyssinia is shown by the story of the revolution several months ago. The disturbance not only resulted in favor of the Allies, but keeps control of the government in Christian hands.
The young Emperor Lij Yasu became a Moslem, it is alleged, under German influence. Notwithstanding the discontent aroused among the Abyssinian princes by the apostacy and Nbertinism of the Emperor, he managed to maintain himself in power by the aid of the Mohammedan tribes on the eastern border and by moving the capital of the Empire from Addis Abeba to Harrar. Ras Rafari, Governor of the Province of Harrar—a son of the famous Ras Makonnen—whom Lij Yasu had tried to put out of the way, placed himself at the head of the opposition, which was composed of all the ministers and native princes, and he proposed the dethronement of the Negus—as the Emperor is called.
On the national feast-day the supreme head of the national church, the Abuno Matheos, solemnly released the Abyssinian nation from its oath of allegiance, and declared Lij Yasu deposed from the throne. Amid scenes of much popular enthusiasm, he proclaimed a Empress, Zaouditou, younger daughter of the late Emperor Menellik II, and installed as Regent and heir to the throne Ras Rafari. A tentative rebellion was promptly suppressed, some thirty chiefs were put to death, others were thrown into prison, and order was restored. Though the deposed ruler attempted to re-establish his throne, his forces were overcome, so that the Christian queen is sustained—Moslem World.
THE MOORFIELD STORY DRIVE FOR 50,000 MEMBERS FOR THE N. A. A. C. P.
"Join the N. A. A. C. P.

"Help fight to make the race—
"Physically free from peonage,
"Mentally free from ignorance,

"Socially free from insult."
No race in all history ever had a more commanding slogan than this. When Mr. Moorefield Story, former president of The American Bar Association and now president of our National body, appeared before the U. S. Supreme Court last May to argue the Loomisville segregation case, he positively refused to accept a cent for his service, and later, when the Supreme Court handed down that memorable decision declaring all such ordinances to be unconstitutional, he again refused to accept money tendered him by grateful negroes, and said the only tribute of honor he asked was that we build our membership up to at least 50,000. Should we not, as citizens proud of our growing into the fuller enjoyment of our rights, freely and unstintedly pay this humble tribute to Moorefield Story, the eminent Boston attorney who knows men by their worth and not by their color. He is our foremost white champion of manhood rights in America today. He is the very re-carination of Sumner and Garrison, those great yearning soils to whom God spoke. The Denver Branch asks the citizens of this place to do their part. May 1st is the date set for this number to be acquired. Join yourself. Ask your white friends to join.
In asking for a membership of 50,000. Mr. Story virtually asks that many Negroes to clasp hands and stand in a solid phalanx for their own uplift, protection and advancement.
To the American Woodmen members and others who wish to join at this time: Your deputy desires to urge you to make a special effort to enlarge our membership in this camp. Our goal is 300. Everyone who is interested phone York 4612J. S. B. W. May. Deputy.
NOTICE!
The Rocky Mountain Shoe Repairing Co. desires to announce that they are now able to turn out first class work when promised and while you wait. They have been handicapped because they were unable to secure competent Negro labor. They have now remedied that condition and await your orders.

| New and sweeping rules for the con-
| servation of wheat flour given out by
the United States Food Admintstra-
tion are now effective. The amount of
flour permissible to sell to one person
at one time has been reduced and
every housewife is asked to reduce
the flour used in the home to one and
one-half pounds per person, per week.
Bakers and hotels have been partlo
ularly hard hit by the new regulations.
Commencing at once bakers are to use
only seventy per cent of the flour they
vsed om an average for the’ four
months prior to March 1, This will
result in a curtailment of bread avaik
able for sale.
The rules have been drawn up as @
war mexsure. Thomas B. Stearns,
U. S. food administrator for Colorado,
1s confident that Colorado will respond
with characteristic loyalty and willing-
ly observe the rules so that our asso-
clates in the war may share our
brend.
Colorado has helped send “over
there” yearly rations for 57,100,000
people, 284,000,000 tushels of wheat
and wheat flour, 2,000,000 pounds of
pork, 1,944,000,000 pounds of sugar,
212,750,000 bushels of corn, 443,484,000
pounds of fresh beef, 3,618,000 bushels
of rye, and 28,988,000 pounds of butter.
