Denver Star We stand paralized that thousands of cases have occurred and today we are prepared to denounce in language strong end vibrating with the courage born of silent suffering any form that this demon of lynching, predjudice segregation unfair legislation may take on. There has never been a question of our loyalty to our government. From the days of the Revolution throughout the settlement and expaion days; during the Civil War, the Spanish American War and now in this the greatest of the world's wars, we are answering the call of the nation to uphold its principals. 'He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat.' The war will not be over until the world has been made safe for democracy. Shall we not hasten to do, to dare? Is the world safe for you now? Freedom! Democracy! Would one of us be found unwilling to sacrifice anything for these conditions? This convention pledges its loyalty to the U.S. and its support to as many patriotic movements as possible such as buying War Saving and Thrift Stamps. The investing in Liberty Bonds, and contributing to Red Cross funds The greatest sacrifice made and the greatest patriotism shown is the giving of our men and boys to make this world Wmoen's Mass Meeting Sunday at Zion AUDITORIUM MEETING MONDAY NIGHT AT EIGHT This coming week in Denver will be an epoch-maker of all the past events in the history of the West.

Second Ohio Man to Die "Overseas" Columdus—The first Columb bus Colnmbus Colored man to be killed in action was Charles Henry Bloce, aged 6, 164 North 5th street, a member of Machine Gun Co. G. of the 9th Battalion. Ohio N. G., now 372nd infantry regiment, word of whose death was received N. A. A. C. P. Takes up Jones' Case With Secretary of War The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has sent a letter to the Secretary of war, asking for a ruling on the attitude of the War Department in the case of Dr. S. P. Jones, volunteer, of St. Louis, who while on his way to Camp Cody, Deming, N. M., traveling on train and transportation furnished by the government, was ordered out of a Pullman car by the train conductor at Texarkana, on the border between Texas and Arkansas. The association's letter says, in part: "This incident seems to put squarely up to the War Department for decision whether the department will insist that enlisted men traveling under government orders shall be accorded the kind of service authorized by the government and provided for by the transportation furnished, to wit: service without discrimination in Pullman cars when Pullman cars when Pullman service is authorized and provided by the department." In a statement concerning this case Mr. Shillady, Secretary of the Association, said that the case itself involved the question of whether the government was going to allow its soldiers, because they were Colored, to be denied Pullman accommodations even though the government had ordered and paid for such accommodations, merely be cause prejudiced elements in the South were disinclined to allow Colored people to sit in the same coaches with them. in a caplegram to his wife, Mrs, Irene Bloce, Monday evening. Bloce was serving his third enlistment in the National Guard and also has two brothers in the army, one a bugler and one a sergeant in the same regiment with him. The cablegram states that he was wounded by shrapnel on June 14 while fighting in the western part of the Ar gonne sector. Besides his wife and two sisters, all living in Columbus. CHARLESTON, W. VA. The Executive State Council of Defence, Wednesday, placed a ban on the exhibition of "The Birth of af a Nation and all similar plays in this state during the period of the war. The action of the state council came as a sequel to the passage of a resolution by the McEowell Country Auxiliary Council of Defense protesting against the showing of "The Birth of a Nation," the McDowell Co. Council, composed of Colored citizens of that county and one of the units of the State Auxiliary Advisory Council, of which J. C. Gilmer is secretary, set forth that the attraction is one "calculated to arouse hated and prejudice between the white and Negro races of the state, and likely to hinder and retard the proper co operation between the races in promoting the greatest efficiency in war work of all kinds. Government Printing Office Jim-Crows Employees WASHINGTON.—Colored employees in the Government Printing Office here are very much perturbed over the issuing of orders designating what lavatories Colored employees may use.

Dr. Furniss Gets Two Policewomen Appointed Indianapolis, Ind. Though the recommendation of Councilman S. A. Furniss, two women, Mrs. Mary E. Mays and Mrs. Emma C. Baker, have received appointments to the Indianapolis police department. Mayor Jewett had recommended the appointment of thirteen policewomen and Councilman Furniss asked for the unconditional appointment of two of the best known social workers of the Race in this city. Mrs. Mays was for years a Flower Mission worker and a well known social tenement worker. Mrs Emma C. Baker has been closely identified with social uplift work for a number of years, besides being widely acquainted in the business world. Chief of Police Coffin has assigned them to duty in the vicinity of Indiana and Senate avenues. Philadelphia, Pa.—Following the splendid example set by Chicago and Indianapolis in securing policewomen to the local police force, citizens of this city have succeeded in having the appointment of Mrs. Mary E. Smith, 1426 Lom dard street. FIVE CENTS A COPY. Why Should not Mercy Apply to All President Woodrow Wilson has seen fit to accord to two white soldiers found asleep at their posts in France, an un conditiokal pardon, although they had been condemned to death by a court martial. In military sense, there is but one crime greater and that is the crime of communicating information to the enemy. Men conveying this information are called spies. We have been waiting and watching for a report as to what is to be done in the cases of the five colored troopers, under sentence of death for participation in the so called Houston riots. About forty colored men have been punished and not a single white man This seems to us to be a one sided justice which might be denominated one sided injustice. Thirteen colored men have been executed, one of whom was not even at the scene of the alleged riot. President Woodrow Wilson would do even handed justice in pardoning these men, just as he has done in the other cases. We shall trust him to this extent and we believe that our faith in him will not be in vain.—Richmond Planet Police Brutally Beats Innocent Woman Oklahoma City, Okla. Because she would not confess to stealing $13 and a diamond ring from the room of Mrs. Stagg (white), a residence of Hadden Hall, Mrs. Etta Davis, age 37, 408 East Second street, was bruatly beaten in the face by Policeman Ralph Young, who is commonly known to the police element as "Cayenne Pepper," a given him on account of his brutal treatment of prisoners. The Stagg woman recovered her property shortly after the arrest had been made, and told the police she had carelessly laid it away and forgotten where she placed it Mrs. Davis had been employed as a domestic in Habben Hall. After remaining in jail over night, with her face badly disfigured and bruised, Mrs. Davis was released. Upon being informed that Mrs. Davis had been released Policeman Young if alleged to have remarked: "Well, the beating I gave the nigger wench will be a lesson to her." World Discontinues The New York World, which has the largest circulation of any morning paper in New Work, has promised to discontinue the use of the term "darkies." In a letter to Lester A. Walton, managing editor of The Age who informed the editors of the daily that colored Americans did not take kindly to the terms in print, C. M. Lincoln, managing editor of the World replied in part. "You are quite right in your suggestion that the word 'darkies' was wrong. I am sorrow it appeared and I have given order that the word shall not be used again." 2 TRAIN MIND TO REMEMBER By the Proper Exercise of Will One Can Teach the Brain to Register Photographs. A man who has a wonderful memory says in the American Magazine: If you can train your right arm to deliver a good blow, you can train your memory to retain facts. There are just as many flabby-minded men in the world as there are flabby-bodied ones. Both kinds of flabbiness are due to laziness, the one mental, the other physical. THE LAMP IN THE BOX Above all, you must remember that the brain is a photographic machine—and you can make it take an enormous number of photographs. I don't contend that each man may eventually have as good a memory as his neighbor's, but I am firmly convinced that 90 men out of 100 can have better and more serviceable memories than they now have. Teach your brain to register photographs of what you want it to retain. Be enthusiastic about it. Work at it every day while you are doing your other work. It isn't very hard. Most men use about 80 per cent of their available energy when they're working. Concentrate on what you are doing. Let it soak into you. Absorb it—and always absorb it with the conviction that it is going to stay absorb There you have my recipe for a good memory: Determine to remember, don't worry, and learn how not to let your office worries and work go to bed with you at night—and, above all things, get into the open and give nature a chance. Fresh air and sunshine have as beneficial an effect on the memory as they do on the other parts of your general makeup. ORIGIN OF ALPHABET LOST Generally Accepted Theory Is That the Letters First Came Into Use Among the Egyptians. The alphabet we use is a queer thing, when we come to think of it. In effect, it is made up of conventional signs. Turn this page upside down, and you cannot read it. It might almost as well be printed in Russian characters or in Arabic. Few subjects have enlisted on the part of language students more speculative thought than the origin of the alphabet. It is today a matter much in dispute. There are those who aver that on pebbles almost as ancient as the early cave dwellers of southern Europe have been found inscribed characters representing the origin of some of our alphabetical letters of today. But the theory most generally accepted at the present time is that the letters of our alphabet originated with the ancient Egyptians. They were, to begin with, "ideographs." Take "S" for example. In form it represents a snake. The sound of the letter is the hissing of a snake. There you have it. What more could be demanded of a single letter in an alphabet? It is a whole picture. "Q" is supposed to have been a knot in a string—the letter being originally a piece of sinew. "G" was a bow pulled taut. "C" was the hollowed hand, from which one drank—whence the sound of the letter. "L" was the crooked stick used in primitive times as a plow. "N" was a pickax. "V" was an ox yoke. "X" was a crossroads. "T" was a tally—a primitive mode of counting. "T" was the right hand upheld. Bagdaders Think Jinn Lights City. When the electric light company lighted the streets of Bagdad with electricity, the people were filled with astonishment, according to a Bagdad newspaper, translated for the Review of Reviews by Miss Mary, Caroline Holmes. Some declared that nothing less than the Jinn could produce such brilliant light. Others asserted that it was male and female, the latter being the lights of the city, while the males were kept in the pockets of the Englishmen. Still others said that in their opinion these wonderful lights were the bird "Al Bahman," spoken of by "Al Ardesey" in his book, "The Pleasure of the Longing News from the Border." "Al Bahman" is supposed to circle around and around the sea, observing the horizon, then mounting to the top of the tallest mast to warn the sailors of a coming tempest. Queereat Coin on Earth. Have you ever seen a manilla? It is a coin used by natives of West Africa and is said to be the most curious coin in the world. In shape "manillas" resemble a horseshoe with the two extremities flattened out like a camel's foot. Being made of solid copper, three-eighths of an inch thick, they weigh over eight ounces each. In "face value" seven of these queer coins are equivalent to 25 cents, so that $1 worth would be an uncomfortably heavy load. Not only are these "manillas" used among the natives, but white traders accept them as legal tender for goods sold at the various stores. At one time this strangely shaped money had quite a large circulation in certain parts of the coast, but its use is now restricted to a few bush towns and one including Bonny, Brass and Akassa. "Manillas" are now very difficult to obtain. New Brand. Mrs. Leeder—I can't do without my matutinal coffee. Mrs. Newrich—Is that a new brand?

According to Gibbon, St. George owes his position in the Christian calendar to no merit of his own. Born in a fuller's shop in Epiphania, Officia, George contrived to ingratiate himself with those above him by servilely flattering them, and so gradually rose from his original obscurity. Gibbon says that a lucrative contract for supplying the army with bacon, proved under his unscrupulous management a mine of wealth, but that he was, of the discovery of his dishonest practices, compelled to fly the country. Securing Happiness It's every man's right to have pleasure. True, many conditions tend to rob a man of his rights. But the final theft rests with the man himself. Scripture says: "There is that withholdeth more than is meet and it tendeth to poverty." The same principle rules in the quest of happiness. Joy is the reward of doing the happy thing rather than the hoarding of a word of encouragement. Use your powers for their intended purpose and see what the result will be.

The only fitting thing that can be said of Senator Tillman of South Carolina, as reference to the Negro of the South, is that he "cussed, discussed and disgusted Negroes. After all his abuse and anti-Negro propaganda, kindly answer this question, "What has Tillman really done of real merit for humanity in 24 years in Congress? Point out one COMMENDABLE thing. Turn the picture over and then—well. He's dead and the Negro is rising higher today than ever before. Did you know that a "ring of representative race men" met and invited a white printer over to "corral" all the printing of the churches and lodges, so he informed us. He refused to come and attend the meeting designed to take away from the "Star and Colorado Statesmen" certain patronage. He stated to them, so he told us, "that the friendship of the "Star" and Statesmen meant more to him than what "little printing" thep could give him. Did you also know that a petition was circulated to get subscribers to quit the Star when their time was up? Eight people have signed the petition but we have had no discontinuances more than usual. We are in a fight, and we say may the man who is "right" win. Joshua Jackson of Blackburn, England, who survived to see his eighty-seventh birthday, was one of eight brothers and sisters, not one of whom failed to pass the eightth milestone. And quite recently there was living at Milverton, West Somerset, five brothers and sisters, the eldest of whom—Mrs. Shattock—was ninety-two, and the youngest—Mr. James King—just ten years younger. Frequently the girl who is scrupulous about interrupting an older person, thinks nothing at all of breaking in on the story her small brother is trying to tell, and talking on without paying the least attention to him. There are not two standards of courtesy, one for older people, and another for children.—Pennsylvania Grit. There is only one way to enjoy life, and that is to enjoy it in pieces—a bit here and a bit there. And a great many little bits make up a big bit. We all know that the richest people are not the happiest by any means. After all, what have they that takes the place of youth and health, of work and play? The "mental neutrality" which is born of ignorance or lassitude is unworthy of reasoning beings. We have no intellectual right to be ignorant when information lies at our hand, and we have no spiritual right to be weary when great moral issues are at stake.—Agnes Repplier.

Denver, Colo., June 27, 1918. Editor of Denver Star, Denver, Colorado. I have read several copies of your paper. I respect a man's opinion. He may be just as honest in his opinion as I am in mine. Man forms and changes his opinions by his surroundings. Why is it that Abraham Lincoln in his day and generation was a more abused man than the Kaiser is now? The Turks are a more hated race than the Negro race. Turkey will be on the map when the Anglo-Saxon race will perish. The Negro race likes to be humbuged. Carl Schurz was the master mind in Lincoln's day and generation.

June 26, 1918 Editor Denver Star, Dear Sir: Up until now I have ignored your assertions in regards to your question "Where Are the Seeds?" because I didn't think an explanation necessary as everyone up here seemed satisfied. However, as you seem to agitate the matter and have gone so far as to make the statement that people in the Colony doubt my honesty I feel it my duty to answer you and hope you will show your honesty by publishing same. It is true the seeds were left at Mrs. Fords. When I reached her house I knew nothing of the seeds until she told me Rev. Hazell said she could have some of them. After she took what she wanted I delivered them to Houston's store as directed by Rev. McCloud and they were distributed to the people in the colony. I have proof to that effect. Geo. W. North, Chapelton, Colo. We are glad to know who received our (Denver Star) seed. Mr. North stated how the seed became separated from their rightful owners. Since we accomplished our mission, because the seeds belonged to us, we close the incident "because we know who got the seeds." Did they do right and treat the Star fair? All Had Long Lives Be Courteous to All Today's Possibilities Outside of Man's Rights. First Japanese Gardens. (Copyright, 1918, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate) It was Saturday afternoon, a warm spring Saturday. Most of the other girls from Sally's office were planning gala excursions of some sort, shopping for new summer clothes, rowing in the park or going to the movies with John or Gerald. Some of them, carefully powdered and with their hair arranged modestly to conceal the ears, stepped out to meet young men at the doorway, tall young men in khaki, short young men in spring suits, jackies in tight-fitting blue. Only Sally set forth alone and with nothing planned for the afternoon's enjoyment. It had been so different the week before! Then she, too, had met her soldier; she, too, had looked forward to a happy afternoon. And then some one had told her about him. It seemed that he wasn't just plain John Strong. He was the John Strong, son of the millionaire whose gray stone palace crowned the top of one of the city's beautiful hills. He had once been reported engaged to Evelyn Carey, the banker's daughter, and rumor had it that even now he was courting the daughter of the governor of the state. What use could he have for plain, poor little Sally Graham? If he thought she was that kind of girl! So Sally concluded that she would simply have to put him out of her mind and resolve never to see him again. This, however, was easier said than done. He had not called her up that Saturday, so there had been no occasion for putting her resolve into icy tones. One couldn't think over on a busy street, so she boarded a street car and rode to the edge of town, to strike off briskly down a country road. Country roads in springtime are more delectable than the most gorgeous of stage scenery or the most bewitching of shops. There is something about a springtime road that seems to declare that it is a setting for happiness, for youth, for hope and health and radiance. "It's funny so few people are out here on a day like this!" she said to herself. "I should think every one would be, and especially people with cars. I haven't met a soul." But as she spoke there was the sound of a motor in the distance, and Sally stepped aside to wait until it had passed. It was a big gray car, and in it there was a girl alone. Sally looked at her a little wistfully. She was a pretty, well-dressed girl. Her bright eyes met Sally's with something like a friendly smile as she swept by, leaving a faint trail of dust. "I suppose the governor's daughter looks like that," Sally thought. The afternoon went all too swiftly. Sally walked and walked, following the lure of the winding road that always had some surprise waiting for her around the very next turn. But at last it was time to start back, and she found that she was unexpectedly very tired. She had come farther than she thought. And then, once more there came the sound of a motor. It was the big gray car with the pretty girl in it again. It came on smoothly and swiftly. "Aren't you going back to town?" the girl called to Sally. "Don't you want to ride?" Almost before she knew it Sally was seated beside her, spinning swiftly over the road that she had walked. They chatted amiably, of the weather, outdoor sports, the pleasures of walking. The strange girl was amazingly friendly. Sally felt a little shy at first, but no shyness could refrain from melting before the frank simplicity of the other's manner. She was utterly charming, with the sort of frank, sincere manner that reminded Sally so much of John Strong. Of course the girl belonged to his kind of people. No wonder he should love a girl like that! The wonder was that he had ever seen anything attractive about Sally, in her plain little suit with her shy, unsophisticated manner. At least so Sally thought. Suddenly the big car slowed down at a curb. "There's my brother," said its owner. "He's waving me to stop. No, don't get out, please. I'll drive you on down as far as the square; there's plenty of room." Sally sat still with her heart beating swiftly. He was coming through the crowd, his tall khaki figure conspicuous among all the others. He came straight toward them and got in—beside Sally. "Why, Sally Graham!" he exclaimed. "I've been looking for you all the afternoon! I didn't know you knew my sister. I've been telling her all about you, but—" "And I didn't know this was Sally Graham," the sister broke in smiling. "I've been dying to meet you, Miss Graham, and I am glad we did it in this way. I'm sure it couldn't have happened more pleasantly. John has told me so much about you—" "I wonder," broke in John Strong, "whether you would drive us around to the house, Edith? That is if Sally wouldn't mind coming. I want mother to meet Sally, because—because—" His hand beneath the lap-robe tightened on Sally's. Sally felt her voice to be a little husky, but she smiled as she answered: "I shouldn't mind in the least," she said. By KITTY PARSONS. (Copyright, 1915, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) "Why won't you marry me, Nancy—is it on account of this soldier fellow you are all the time writing to?" "I don't know, Dick—I really and truly don't know. I thought I did care for you a few months ago, but now, I'm not so sure—I think perhaps we're not suited to each other after all." "Then, it is this other fellow. I knew it was and you've never even seen him, either. Why, Nancy, he may be entirely different from what you think him. He might be almost anything!" "But he isn't Dick. No one could be anything that wasn't wonderful and write such beautiful letters—I never read such letters before. I just feel I've got to see him before I can make up my mind about anyone else." "Well, if that's the way you feel about it, I guess we'd better call the whole thing off. I never could write a decent letter myself. When does Sir Galahad return?" "He gets here some time next week—on sick leave. I'm to meet him the day after he arrives—we'll have tea somewhere. I think. He may not look the way I expect him to at all, but I am sure he does." "Nancy, promise me you won't go to tea with him till you see what he looks like first." "You're crazy, Dick—as if his looks could make any difference in my feelings toward him! Its his mind I'm thinking of, not his face" The week after Nancy's conversation with Dick was a busy one for the girl. Before she knew it, the day came when she was to meet her friend, and Nancy was in a perfect turmilol of excitement. Again and again she went over the picture of him she had formed in her mind—every detail of it. She and Harold Field had never talked very much about themselves. Their letters had been more about things and ideas and the great war. Strange as it may seem, the man who met her in the lobby of the hotel where they had planned to see each other for the first time, was remarkably like her mental picture of him, except that he was some years older. "I had an idea my godmother was much older," he began, when they were seated at a little table together. Nancy did not like to tell him she thought he would be younger, so she only smiled and made some perfunctory remark about how deceptive letters can be. For some time they talked of commonplaces, then he said: "You've been so kind, so very kind to me, my dear Miss Day. I can't tell you how much we fellows over there appreciate the wonderful letters some of you women write us. Why, many of us don't hear from home for weeks at a time. And those boxes and knitted things, too—I felt I must see you just to let you know what we really do think of you all. Letters can't say half of what we mean." "It wasn't anything but a pleasure to me," returned Nancy promptly, blushing slightly at his earnestness. "Ah, but it was to me. Whether you were nineteen or ninety, the kindness was there just the same—I felt it all the time. And I've told someone else about it—my wife. She asked me to give you this letter from her today, to let you know how much she thinks of anyone who is kind to me. There's even a scribbled postscript on the bottom from one of the children. You mustn't mind the addition." "Oh, thank you." Nancy cried hastily. "I'm to be married myself soon. I thought I'd tell you this afternoon before I announce it to everyone." Soon they parted with a feeling of mutual respect and admiration but with no desire to know each other better. "I'm an idiot," thought Nancy, "I never thought for a minute that he was married. And the children, too!" Her sense of humor overcame her at this point and she laughed till she was weak. Aside from the fact that he was married, he had not been half so nice as Dick, anyway. From the first moment she had known that. She had almost been afraid that he would—she had only wanted to make sure. And she had. The first thing Nancy did when she got back from her tea party was to rush to the telephone. "Is that you, Dick?" she asked. "Yes—are you going to tell me the worst?" "The worst thing possible for you—I'll marry you the minute you'll have me!" "Nancy!" "I mean it—I'll even get Uncle Will to perform the ceremony at short notice—I told him I'd do something like that some day." "Then, I'll be up with the license in five minutes." "When did you get the license?" "I've had it for a month—I wanted to be prepared." "All right, if you'll promise me not to speak to Sir Galahad for another month—I'll have it get used to not thinking about him." "You bet, I will. I never want to hear of him again, you may be sure." "Then, I'll be waiting at the church or wherever you want me to—that's my only condition." "Good-by, darling—I'll be up in half a second." Miss Nancy dropped the receiver and ran off to prepare her mother for this sudden change of her plans. Carpenter and Contractor New and Repair Work.

There are as many vagaries in the waters as in the winds. Why, for instance, should great ocean currents send their warm waters across the wide Pacific and Atlantic? Other and equally mysterious currents exist in well-nigh all parts of the world. It is on record that the water has run for weeks out of the Java sea, through the Strait of Suda and thence back again for the like period without any perceptible rise and fall during those times. Then there is the Equatorial current that flows into the Caribbean sea, the ever-flowing current to the eastward around Cape Horn, the cold stream flowing from the fey regions of the north past Newfoundland and Nova Scotia and along the American coast to the extreme end of Florida, the continual current running with a velocity of from four to five knots an hour through the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean sea, the swift current running across the rocks and shoals off the end of Billiton island, which apparently starts from nowhere and ends nowhere in the vicinity of the same place, and the current which, starting half way up the China sea, runs from two to three knots an hour to the northeast and finally ends abruptly off the north end of Luzon. Then we have those tidal vagaries known the world over as bores. Those that run up the Hugli and Irawad rivers, from side to side, till they reach their limit, often tearing the ships from their anchorage, originate nobody knows where or why. At Singapore it has been observed for days at a time that there has been but one rise and fall in the 24 hours. RANK WITH EAST'S WONDERS Famous Temples at Mandalay, in Upper Burma, a Spectacle That Few Tourists Care to Miss. Of the many strange buildings and temples in the far East, says a writer in Wide World Magazine, there are none more wonderful than the 450 Temples of the Law at Mandalay, in Upper Burma, known as the Rutholdaw, or "Royal Merit." The group consists of a large central pagoda surrounded by hundreds of smaller white temples, or shrines. They were erected by Alnshay-min, who ascended the throne on the death of his brother in 1867. The latter was cruelly murdered by his two nephews, and it appears that this very much affected the new king. Not only did he devote his energies to peace, but erected this strange group of temples, each one of which contains a slab on which is engraved a portion of the Buddhist bible. These holy tablets are made of soft marble or alabaster, each slab being about the size of a large old-fashioned tombstone. On both sides are engraved chapters from the Buddhist scriptures. Over every slab is erected a canopy surmounted by a gilded framework of metal with small tinkling bells. The temples are situated in a beautiful wooded valley, and seen from the surrounding hills they present a fascinating picture. Serving the Commonwealth There are many crosses and trials in the life of one who is endeavoring to serve the commonwealth, but there are also two permanent sources of comfort. One is the support and sympathy of honest and reasonable people. The other is the conviction dwelling forever, like a well of living water, in the hearts of all of us who have faith in the country, that all we do in the fear of God and the love of the land, will somehow be overruled to the public good; and that even our errors and failures cannot greatly check the irresistable onward march of this mighty republic, the consummate evolution of ages, called . . . to a destiny grander and brighter than we can conceive, and moving always consciously or unconsciously, along lines of beneficent achievement whose constant aims and ultimate ends are peace and righteousness.—John Hay. Closing Wild Gaa Wella Engineering feats, comparable in the ingenuity required, if not in expedition of effort with the closing of the Salton sea, have been called for in recent years to close wild gas wells in northwestern Louisiana. An immense amount of natural gas has been lost in wells that have got beyond control in the Caddo and Red river fields, and the loss consists not only in the precious fuel wasted, but in the lowering of pressure on the associated oil, which is rendered thereby more difficult to recover. Indeed, it is asserted by some that the ultimate yield of oil from a pool is considerably less if the gas is allowed to escape than if it is closed in until as much oil as possible is taken out.—Argonaut. Horses in the Philippines. The horses in the Philippine islands are ponies containing a mixture of the blood of ponies and small horses from northern China, French-Indo-China and Mexico, with a considerable admixture of Arab blood. There are about 243,000 horses in the islands. In Manila alone about 100 dead horses are collected every month, which are cremated, hides and all, though there is great need of horsehides for razor strops and shoe leather. In the rest of the islands probably 2,500 horsehides are wasted every year because no one knows where to sell them profitably. Church News CAMPBELL CHAPEL AFRICAN M. A. CHURCH. 23rd and Lawrence Streets A. M. Ward, Minister, Residence 1218 23rd St. Phone Main 5474 Class Meeting, 12:30 p. m. All Christian Endeavor League, 4:30 p. m. Prayer and Class meeting, Wednesday, 8:00 p. m. All people are invited to worship with us. Campbell Chapel African M. E. Church reached $900.00 in its annual rally fund last Sunday, and Pastor A. M. Ward is happy, to say the least. There are others who yet declare they are no slackers and will do their bit to make it $1,000.00. Visiting delegates to the National Association of Colored Women's Convention will visit with us on Sunday, Evangelist M. J. Keyes will preach on Sunday night when holy communion will be observed. The Mary Campbell Woman's Mite Missionary Society, through its President, Lydia Smith Ward, turned over $40.00 to the rally fund—proceeds from the Ruble Petteford Recital. The Choir brought its amount up to $47.00, and Mr. Sanford Caldwell's entertainment brought $45.00. Mr. Wolfskill, noted musician and former Supt. of Campbell S. S., laid to rest in Fairmont. The funeral of Mr. Virgil N. Wolfskill was held at Campbell Chapel A. M. E. Church under the auspices of the Knights of Pythias on Sunday afternoon. A great gathering filled the Church and many beautiful floral tributes covered the handsome steel-gray casket and formed and embankment around the altar. Rev. A. M. Ward officiated and favorite songs were sung by Messrs. B. C. Allen, Edward Caldwell, Morgan Jackson and Wendell Allen. The choir led the congregational singing. He is survived by his widow, who, with her sister and friend, Mrs. Leland, accompanied the body from Evanston, Wyo., to its final resting place in Fairmont. His father and mother, residing in Chillicothe, one sister and three brothers, who mourn their loss. PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN. E. 23rd Ave. and Washington St. PRESBYTER, J. THOS. HAZELL, 8. T. B. In the absence of the minister from the pulpit last Sabbath Dr. R. A. Randolph and Rev. E. A. Reynolds respectfully, addressed the congregation. The former o the occasion of the forenoon services, the latter in connecting with the rendering of the Women's Missionary program. Both these brethren brought helpful messages. Both pastor an dcongregation thank these ministers for their helpful ministries. The minister will deliver the precommunion discourse tomorrow at the 11 o'clock services. At 5 P. M. will be prayer and meditation. At 5:30 P. M. the Summer communion of the Lord's Supper will be observed. It is very urgently hoped that all the communicants will participate in this eucharistic feast of the church. Next Thursday night at 8:45 o'clock a concert of most varied and unusual character will be rendered by the choir of the church and a number of other persons who have served the choir, the church and community during the past nine years of the minister's incumbency at the People's Church. The citizens of Denver have repeatedly shown their appreciation of high class musical engagements given at this church in the past. We appeal to your support for next Thursday night. The probability is that this will be the last exhibition of its kind promoted by Rev. Thos. Hazell in this church. Come and help the cause and enjoy yourself. For some weeks both the community and the People's Church have suffered much from the serious though not painful breakdown physically of Miss Cleo Hobson. Miss Hobson is a student in the East Denver High School and a most active communicant of the People's Church; is pianist in the Sunday School and a kind of community property. Therefore she is an indispensible musical asset to Denver's younger set. We are all anxious for her recovery, submitting ourselves however, to the wise rule of Providence in the promises. We hereby register our sympathy with the parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. Hobson. CENTRAL BAPSTIST CHURCH Phone Champa 1059. Rev. P. J. Price, Pastor. 24th and California Sts.

There are some wide-awake people in Central; people who are really interested in its welfare. Watch! Watch! We have some thinkers in our church. We commend Miss Lillian Hickman and Miss Hazell Bonapart for their alertness last week in presenting a nice program to our people at Central Church.

Lee Umbles, the Boulder runner, with Brickler, Mosley and Denton, will be down, and have declared their intention of "carrying away everything." The Boy Scouts and the Junior "Y" have strong line-ups, while the "Y" girls are in good shape and will make the best showing ever. The public meeting at the Zlon Baptist Church last Sunday afternoon was very lightly attended owing to the great number of things-going on in the city. Dean Peck, who spoke in the place of Rector Robert B. H. Bell of St. Thomas' Church, was, if anything, better than usual, and gave an address which made a profound impression upon the audience. On account of the great "echo meeting" which will be held by the National Women's Federation at the Zlon Baptist Church next Sunday afternoon there will be no program at the "Y" building; the next meeting will be held on the 15th. Slight repairs are now being made in the front room ceiling. The croquet tournament was opened last Saturday afternoon on the new court in the rear of the building. L. H. Lightner and King played against Adolphus Lightner and Bell, who was relieved late in the game by Mr. Coleman of the Denver Star. The game was won by Lightner and King. The billard tournament now being played by Brown, Chapman and Boudin is at a tie, each player having won a "bout." The membership of the branch on the first of the month was 234. GONE, BUT NOT FORGOTTEN. Rev. J. P. Watson, the oldest minister of the Colorado A. M. E. Conference passed away at his home at 1101 Palmer Avenue, Pueblo, Colorado, June 21st at 4:45.

M. assumed charge of the services and escorted the remains to its last resting place. There was not a more shining light than that of Rev. J. Preston Watson, who passed from this life June 21st. A noble, true-hearted, faithful Christian, always ready and willing to extend a helping hand. His heart went out for the welfare of every one. His friends were numerous, his heart was broad; our loss is heaven's gain. The many hearts extend undivided sympathy to his beloved wife and relatives. MRS. M. E.

Phone Main 2488 Denver, Colorado BUY W. S. S. Good Word for Snakes "Only 17 of the 111 varieties of snakes in America are poisonous," writes Glayne K. Norton in American Forestry. "None," he asserts, "will attack a human being except in self-defense. All of them destroy rodents that injure crops and carry communicable diseases." The United States department of agriculture places our annual crop loss due to rodents at over $500,000,000, or something like $5 a person. Just how many more snakes we need in America to save this $500,000,000 of food no one claims to know, but it may be a good idea for snake haters to permit the wiggling reptiles a longer lease of life—a reprieve, you might say, until all the rodents are gone. Innkeepers' Signs. In the middle ages, before turnpikes were constructed, the castles of the barons and the monasteries offered shelter and food to travelers. The baronial arms were always hung before the castles in prominent positions, the object being to enable wayfaring strangers to identify a given house by the most conspicuous object in the device. Thus, if a rose, lily or lion appeared in bold relief the building was named by the traveler by one or other of these terms. After the overthrow of the feudal powers and the suppression of the monasteries the wayside hostelry was the only resource left to wanderers, and it took over the former custom by displaying signs. "I do not feel that I have really seen 'Hamlet' played," mused Mr. Stormington Barnes. "But you have played the part yourself." "My dear fellow, I could not watch myself act, could I?" "The Female of the Species." "I could never think of marrying," said old Prince G——, "for I know what my fate would be. Every Russian lives under his wife's slipper." Barring an occasional outburst of terrible Asiatic temper on the part of paterfamilias—usually soon, and contritely repented of—this is a fact. The Russian woman is always the stronger. She has a vitality and energy which the men seem unable to cope with. The stories of Tschalkovsky's erratic marriage and terrific flight—like the aversion, founded on something like fear, of Strindberg for women (Strindberg being a type of Swede that shows many Russian proclivities, even as much Russian blood has percolated into certain parts of Sweden)—receive many explanatory commentaries, if one has known something of the more intimate aspect of Russian existence.—A.

RUTH CARPER KILLED IN AUTO ACCIDENT As we go to press Thursday morning we are informed that Ruth Carper daughter of Mrs. Katie Carper, 2705 Downing Ave., was killed or was missing after the auto accident which happened when a party of eight were returning on the road from Golden Moonlight Picnic Dance. The auto driver was said to have been racing in his Cole "S" and ran off the bridge thru a barbed wire fence, overturning the party into an irrigation ditch filled with 12 feet of water. As a consequence Ruth Carper is thought to have been drowned; Wendell Cruise had his stomach ripped open necessitating him holding his intestines to prevent them from falling out, while Maxie Baurs was painfully injured and Missess Ethel Henry, Marjorie Hunter, Addie Hall and Artie Govan were shook up.—(Last week's issue.) Miss Ruth Carper laid to rest Sunday. Never has this community been so thoroughly shocked as it was when after two days' hard seaching, the drowned body of Miss Ruth Carper, was found and her death automatically reported. She was born and raised in Denver and we all knew her and loved her smiling face and sweet disposition. Her death coming as a complete shock caused a deep pall to come over this community. Her many young friends were so thoroughly upset that a deep wave of sorrow and regret permeated this community. Rev. Ward preached the funeral service Sunday morning at the house and even the air bespoke a sort of a tenderness and the sun showed a feeling that was noticeable. Wendell Cruise, a young man whose life is vet despaired of and in whose company she was, has not been informed of her death. Miss Carper's skull was cracked and it is thought that the blow killed her instantly. Mrs. L. P. Morzan and Lawyer Geo G. Ross have received cards from their relatives to the effect that they have safely arrived in France. Both men are in the 97th Division. Sergt.

AR, BILL, THIS IS DEMOCRACY A large, handsome $1,000 Bill turned one of the corners in Washington and hurried up the avenue which leads to the Treasury Department. Far off in the distance a small, brown object was furiously throwing up a little cloud of dust. "Well, well!" exclaimed $1,000 Bill. "I'm a Dutchman that isn't little old Red Copper Cent. Wonder what the little rascal's up to now?" In a few minutes $1,000 Bill, moving along with his magnificent stride, was within hearing distance of Red Copper Cent. "Hello, Red!" called $1,000 Bill. "What are you doing here?" "Hello, Bill!" came back the answer. "Haven't time to stop and talk. Uncle Sam has just sent for me to help win the war. I'm bound for the Treasury. Where are you going, Bill?" "Same place, Red. Uncle Sam has sent for me, too. He's going to make ten Liberty Bonds out of me, I understand." "By Jove! that's interesting, Bill. He's going to make a Thrift Stamp out of me and twenty-four of my comrades." Bill had now caught up with Red. "Your legs are longer than mine, Bill, and you'll no doubt beat me to the Treasury," apologized Red. "Tut, tut, Red," replied Bill. "We are going in together, even if I do have to slack up a bit. We are learning in this war how to keep step, how to march shoulder to shoulder and present a front united to the last man, the last dollar, the last penny. Ah, Red, this war is working wonders. The folks back home had planned for me to go into a touring car. I didn't a bit relish the idea of spending the remainder of my days speeding down the road and dusting every poor old chap that has to walk. "Well, before the decision was made, war was declared. Both of the boys in the family enlisted, and my! but it changed things at home. One of the girls has gons as a nurse. The other two are busy knitting at the first peep of day. Mother has actually gone back into her kitchen. She says she is going to save enough to buy several Liberty Bonds. Father is now one of Uncle Sam's $1.00-a-year men. I am happy this morning. Now, Red, what's your story?" "Well, Bill," smiled Ped. "I didn't run the hazard of going into a touring car. However, I did come dangerously near to falling in with bad company. Little Jack, who delivers papers to buy his clothes and school books, stopped at a slot the other day, and I fairly shuddered for a few minutes. I thought that I was to go for chewing gum. Fortunately, his school teacher came along and in a friendly way said, "You had better save that penny, Jack. We are going to organize a whole company for Uncle Sam's Army of Thrift tomorrow, and you'll want to join." Jack languaged and replied, "Sure, I'll join. My big brother is over now, and I want to be a real soldier in Uncle Sam's Army of Thrift." "The next night Father and Mother, little Jack and his sister Mary, who works over at Childs, were sitting around the fire. 'Daddy,' said little Jack, 'teacher told us this morning how we could help my big brother and he other boys' big brothers win the War.' Daddy looked over his 'specs' and demanded, 'How's that?' Then Jack explained how the Thrift Stamps can help you win a future for yourself, a future for your country, a future for democracy, and a future for civilisation, and help bring back big brother all with the same penny. That night the family made the decision. Mother said that she would save expenses in the kitchen. Sister said that she would walk to work. Jack said that he would cut out gum. And Daddy clinched his big fist, pounded on the table, and declared, 'By Golly! I'll save a dollar a week if I have to bust a button in the trying.' So, Bill, we haven't anything on each other after all. We are both soldiers for Uncle Sam." "Well, well! Red," philosophised Bill. "Who would have thought it? Who would have thought it?" "Hold on, there, Bill!" shouted little Red as he grabbed his big brother by the coat tail. "We're about to pass the Treasury." "By Jove! you are right," replied Bill. "Now listen, Bill," whispered little Red, half choked with fear, "you'll have to help me along a bit. I've never been here before, and I don't know what to do. You're used to it." "Oh, never mind that, Red," replied Bill. "Give me your hand and let me help you along. Uncle Sam will make you feel at home." "Ah, Bill, old pal," chuckled little Red, with a big smile from ear to ear. "This is Democracy."—Chids Magazine. Jod Printing of all kinds 2745 CALL M MME.
