Just business sesession was held earl attended by delegates and officers night's mass meeting was open to th ooo people, white and colored, fill the Auditorium. The National Association, of Colored Women, coming from all parts of our country, met in their eleventh biennal convention, began Monday and adjourned Saturday. Their actions and deeds will be in history and some will forget in a week or two that such a large and instructive gathering ever came to Denver, but there will be some both black and white who will ever and always remember our grandest, and most patriotic also most enthusiastic, as well as enlightening meeting filled with flights of oratory, that Denver has ever witnessed. Colorado people poured in from the surrounding towns, as well as from cities in Wyoming, to be present and hear our best trained most cultured and intellectual women, who neither bit their tongue, shrank from no unpleasant duty nor apologized for wrongs done our race and especially their kind Frankness, candor and justice were the weapons used by them to the greatest advantage. Our Own Governor Gunter, with that genteel Southern chivalrous manner peculiarly his own completely won the people to his heart when he said "You represent 12,000,000 citizens of this great United States—you have all the rights and privileges of any citizens under our flag—you have been tested and have proved that you are capable of filling all places afforded by that citizenship, and that you are justly entitled to it. One-third of Colorado's National guard is composed of colored citizens of the state." Gov. Julius C. Gunter told the audience at the city Auditorium Monday at the first meeting of the twentieth annual convention of the National Association of Colored Women. The first business session was held earlier in the day and was only attended by delegates and officers of the association; but last night's mass meeting was open to the public. Approximately 4,000 people, white and colored, filled the Curtis street end of the Auditorium.

Governor Gunter welcomed the association to Colorado, and enumerated many things that its members have done to aid the war accomplishment record of the state. He told them that the colored women have already contributed $75,000 in this state alone. Many other things the speaker recalled which the race represented at the meeting had done for their country. The president, Mrs. Mary Talbert, announced that before the close of the convention, the war department will be petitioned to allow 2,000 colored nurses to go to the European fronts to nurse the men of their own race. This plea will based on the point that they can do the work better than white women. She also said that director of Railways William G. McAdoo will be asked to end the day of the "Jim Crow" car, as being filthy and undemocratic. In addition to the list of accomplishments recited by Governor Gunter, she said that 300 women, working for $1 per day had raised $9,000 for the organization and that her race had subscribed to $5,000,000 of the third Liberty loan.

LeNoir sang sweetly while Prof. George Morrison and his orchestra put Denver so high upon the musical map of this country that our visitors were loudly acclaiming their praises. Mr. Lawrence H. Lightner's address on behalf of the citizens was a gem and is being daily congratulated by all—a pleasant surprise. Rev Over's address from the ministers was a sincere expression of the heart and soul of the Denver ministry. He always is representative. Mrs. Isa belle Stewart surprised her audience by her cool manner in delivering her address, 'Negro women of the West to Arms!' Responses were said by Mrs. Booker T. Washington of Tuskegee Institute; Miss Elizabeth Carter, of New Bedford, Mass. and Mrs. Hawkins Shaw of North Carolina whose speech everybody will remember. Mrs. Carrie Lee Hamilton, president Illinois Federation read 'King Robert of Sicily' while our beloved Miss Mary G. Evans invoked divine blessings from our al mighty God. Closing with Star Spangled Banner, led by Mrs. Hodges of New Zealand history can never efface the memory of that meeting. SPEAKS WITH PRIDE. "There is so much to be done, and I feel that I must do the work for both of us now," she said. Mrs. Washington's has all ways been in the tar south, and she believes there is no place where the school could have been of so great usefulness. "It was needed where our people were in greatest numbers, so that was the spot chosen by my husband." She is an honorary President of the national association of Colored Women's club, having been president tor as long a time as the rules permit. She speaks with pride of the work done by the association. Other famous women of the Negro race who are here attending the convention are Mrs. Addie W. Dickerson, a successful lawyer of Philadelphia; Miss Elizabeth Carter, for twenty years a teacher in public schools of New Bedford Mass.; Miss Hallie Brown, chairman of the executive committee, and Mrs. Mary B. Talbot, president] of the association. Miss. Bowles Field Secretary of Y. W. C. A. war work was present and rendered some valuable assistance. We noticed conspicuous for their absences were Mrs. Mary Church Terrill and Miss Nannie Burroughs, also Miss Ina Wells Barnett of Chicago Among the other distinguished visitors attending the convention which is being held at Shorter M. E. chapel is Miss Hallie Q. Brown head of the department of expression, public speaking and English literature, at Wilber force University in Ohio, the oldest institution for colored students in the United States Miss Brown has appeared before the late Queen Victoria in dramatic recital and has spent a number of years in Europe. The morning session at the convention was devoted to the reports of the national officers and the annual address of the president of the association Mrs. Marv B. Talbert of Buffalo, N. Y. GOV. JULIUS C. GUNTER who delivered a masterful address of welcome in behalf of the delegates to the N. A. C. W. Clubs. Perhaps the only case of its kind on record in New Port News is the arrival of a large steamship, in command of a Negro captain of Portuguese ancestry by the name of Custodia Rocha. The ship was carrying food and munitions to the allies. M. The above likeness of Mrs. Beatrice H. Cannady of Portland, Oregon is a just fac simile of the tenderness, congeniality and open hearted face of the associate editor and wife of our warm friend, Editor Cannady, of the Portland Advocate. She as chairman of the Department of Public Posters and Prints of the great National N. A.C. W. Clubs has thoroly performed her duty to a mathematical precision. Hes exhaustive report of her department for the last two years drew forth special mention and deserve comment from the leaders of the convention. Her services are so eagerly sought after that she served during her stay here upon the committee on Executive, press resolution and special war work committee which committee compelled her to compile a resume of all the speech es and lectures made and send them in a special report to Washington, D. C. Her love of home with her two boys of the ages of 2 and 5, while she has enjoyed her visit here immensely, is causing her to want to be wending westward after she remains over Sunday Mrs. Cannady is a charming personality and made herself completely at home "in the Star" office. We welcome her to return to our city beautiful anytime. Race Women Mechanics Anniston, Ala.—The United States Pipe and Foundry Co. of this city, has set the pace for other employers of labor by putting two Colored women to work as helpers in the machine shop at the big plant in the western part of the city. The female helpers took up their initial day of work amid the whirring machinery, the grime and smoke of the big industrial plant is sufficient indication to the mind of pipe shop officials that they are going to make good in their new roles. FIVE CENTS A COPY. War Department Will Brook no Discrimination Washington, D. C.—The War Department has made it clear that it will tolerate no discrimination against Colored draftees by the local draft boards in any section of the country and that cases of alleged unfairness will be fully investigated and corrected by the departmental authorities. Secretary of War, Newton D. Baker, in a recent interview, speaking with reference to alleged discrimination against Colored draftees, said, in part: "I have heard that draft boards in adjoining counties take a different view of practically identical facts with regard to Colored men; but the answer in all these cases is that a review is provided directly by the President, and all that is necessary for any body to do who thinks there is a grievance, is to point it out to the War Department, and it will be investigated. If the draft boards act unfairly, we will correct their action. "The War Department will brook no discrimination, and any cases of alleged or suspected discrimination brought to our attention will be investigated, and any wrong done will be righted." Loyalty of Negro Workers Praised America's great shipbuilding program is being put through with practically no labor troubles, because the spirit of co-operation among workmen in the yards is like an unlimited balance in the dank, Chairman Hurley, of the shipping board, today told a conference of Atro-America editors. "It has been an enormous task to bring half a million workers together, at new task in new localities,' said Mr. Hurley, "but there has never been a time when the spirit of the ship-workers could not be counted upon to keep the work going. "We have found the workers willing to do far more than a days work. They have speeded up riveting to such an extent that it has been necessary to safeguard the energy which they are so willing to pour out for the country. In shipyard after shipyard the whole force has donated wages to the Red Cross and other war needs." The loyalty of the American Negro also was raised by Mr. Hurley, who said that the united enthusiasm of the nation in prosecuting the war was largely due to the unselfish patriotism of the press.

Perkins World's Famous Hair and Scalp Specialist The image provided is too blurry to accurately recognize any text. It appears to be a black-and-white photograph of a person sitting in a chair. The individual is wearing a dark top and light-colored pants. The background is indistinct and dark. This is the picture of the little daughter of Mme. Perkins at the age of five years when her hair measured 22 inches. 2 CARE OF THE HAIR Important hints on the care of the hair by Madam T. D. Perkins, the scientific scalp specialist of Denver, Colo. Read them carefully. The Scalp. The scalp, the home of the hair follicles, requires special care to insure a nice growth of hair. This care consists in massaging and working the scalp all over at least once a week, preferably before retiring. This renders it loose and elastic, so that circulation of blood and subsequent nutrition of hair is the result. The sebaceous glands that are open near each hair growth, if allowed to become clogged up because of uncleanliness, will result in dry, brittle, snarling hair and hide-bound scalp. Dandruff. Dandruff is to the head what pimples and blackheads are to the face, and as absolute cleanliness will remove the latter, so thorough shampooing will the former. The utmost attention should be paid to the general hygienic care of the hair and scalp. Many cases of falling hair are due to this trouble and causes the loss of hair after a fever in a great many instances. Shampooing. A shampoo once a month ought to keep the average hair under average conditions in good shape. Some women boast that they never wash their hair, and we can readily credit their statement after a close look. It takes but a glance to tell what hair has been carefully and lovingly treated. It looks alive and sparkles and gleams as if proud of its appearance. On the other hand the hair that is shampooed too often and that with strong soap and hard water always betrays the process. Combing the Hair. While the loss of fifty or sixty hairs every day is perfectly normal, actual moulting seasons for the hair are not normal. The comb is to be preferred to the brush when dressing the hair, as it separates the tangles and puts the hair into smooth strands. Always begin at the bottom and work gradually upward. Do not pull, but separate the hair if need be with the fingers, and never pull out the hair by the bulbs. Serious scalp diseases have been known to result from such treatment. In combing your hair take up the comb with the thumb and second finger, guilding it if you wish with the tip of the index finger. Never grasp it with all fingers, bracing the ends against your palm. It is a great temptation when you are in a hurry to comb out the smarls, to go through the hair briskly and energetically, but the hair will suffer from this treatment every time. You will find if you hold the comb as directed you will not be able to exert enough force to tear out the hair as you do in the ordinary way. Strand by strand the hair should be combed from the under side as well as upper. Cleaning the Comb and Hair Pins. The health and beauty of the hair depend in a great measure upon its cleanliness and it can not possibly be kept clean if the proper attention is not given to the case of the comb, side combs and hair pins. The comb should be washed once a week in hot water with a little ammonia in it. An old tooth brush is very convenient for cleaning the comb for the bristles easily penetrate between the teeth. in wiping the comb run a cloth between its teeth in order to dry it thor- THE MUSICIAN oughly, as water is not a good dressing for the hair. Sunlight and Fresh Air for the Scalp. Try it. What fresh air and sunlight is to weak lungs, sunlight and fresh air is as much of a tonic to the scalp. I have gone bareheaded for three years, winter and summer, and it has done my scalp a world of good. One should take a good blood tonic every spring. The hair will not grow fast where the blood is out of order. Do you know that persons afflicted with Erysipelas or Scrofula need not write. Treatment will not reach their cases. Address, Mme. T. D.

Number and address of Local Board FAIR PRICE COMMITTEE FORMED TO REGULATE PRICES ON STAPLES Protection for both consumer and retailer will be the battle cry of the "Pair Price" committees recently formed by the United States Food Administration in every state in the Union and in every county in those states. "The unsorupulous dealer in food commodities must turn honest or get out of business," vigorously declared T. R. Williams, head of the Denver Pair Price committee. The purpose of the committee is to establish just and reasonable selling prices to consumers on many of the leading articles. Strenuous efforts with stringent penalty powers attached, will be made to eliminate short weights, misrepresentations and predicating. The members of the committee, of their first meeting in the Denver headquarters a few days ago, recommended that housewives familiarize themselves with the price lists and the quality of the goods they buy, so that they will be able to get the kind of article they pay for and not sold low grade goods at high grade prices. The "Fair Price" committee is composed of two women representing the various labor organizations, two women representing other woman organizations, four retailers, two wholesale fruit and produce dealers and two wholesale grocers. Dealing With Trouble. Never hunt trouble. However dead a shot one may be, the gun he carries on such expeditions is sure to kick or go off half-cocked. Trouble will come soon enough, and when he does come, receive him as pleasantly as possibly.

"As a character actor, I should think that ex-compositors would be a success." "Why so?" THE SUNSHINE CLUB CONTINUES UES ITS GOOD WORK. Inspired To Greater Activity. The Sunshine Club of Denver organized at the home of Mrs. Mamie Dosher (now of Berkeley, California) on January 2nd, 1906, under the leadership of Mrs. Esther H. Morris, of 2949 Stout Street, daughter of the late James H. Hubbard, continues its good work in the service it gives to humanity and the carrying out of its propaganda: The lifting of the fallen and the cheering of the faint. Adhering strictly to the truisms of the pages of Holy Writ, "He that is greatest among you shall be your servant," and void of any attempt at ostentation, this little band of workers for more than twelve years has impressed the community by individual as well as collective action, their purpose to aid, comfort and restore those that are in need and those that are fallen. Working zealously and assiduously in this cause, the members of the Sunshine Club are ever ready to do their part whether in association with others or otherwise, and cannot help in doing justice to itself from mentioning its untiring effort in the following, faithful service rendered by Mrs. Josephine Cassells of Nineteenth and Ogden Street, a pioneer resident of this city, popular and highly respected by all classes in the community and one of its members, who demonstrated real service in the taking care of an old lady in the manner of providing food, clothing and monetary allowances for this unfortunate woman, after her daughter had turned her back on her. Ten years have passed and this recipient still has a ray of sunshine from our worthy club member, and while we enter the social sphere of Club life and participate in its pleasures, yet the greatest pleasure and the beautiful idea of our organization find a cheerful activity in the larger and broader usefulness and sacrificing service we render to humanity. Our band, though few, is sincere and earnest, being filled with an enthusiasm that makes us love our neighbors as ourselves, and our corps of workers having from time to time gotten from the public the indorsement of appreciation for unstinted service, feel up-lifted and greatly inspired from the impression established by the National Association of Women's Clubs in its eleventh biennial session held here this week and pledge their re-dedication and reconsecration to the uplift of fallen humanity, continuing our motto: "Lifting as we climb," still engaging with a firm grasp and strong mind in "The Cause that lacks assistance. The wrong that needs resistance, The future in the distance, And the good that we can do." MISSOURI AND OMAHA SHINES. We are always glad to honor any kind of an organization, and so when Merdames U.

One day the call is for wheat saving, the next for the saving of sugar. Today the pressing need of the American government for export overseas to its army and the army of the allies, is for meat. "If it is absolutely necessary for the army at home to have beef, let it be beef which comes from carcasses weighing less than 500 pounds," urged Thomas B. Stearns, Colorado food administrator. "These small carcasses of beef cannot be shipped to Europe, but at the present time most of the meat served in the restaurants and hotels is taken from the big "top" carcasses—the heavy beaves which must be saved for the soldiers at the front." The Expected Happened. Patience—He married a leading dancer. Patrice—Really? "Yes; and I might have known what would happen." "What's happened?" "She's leading him a pretty dance." Tempted. "Everybody's economisin'," complained Meandering Mike. "Yes," rejoined Plodding Pete. "Sometimes I'm wonderia' whether de meal ticket dat goes wit' a jail sentence isn't worth very serious consideration." --- --- W. A. Jones, M. D. President CONQUERERED CONQUERED Save meat Tempted. 2802 Welton Street There was the usual collection of drummers in the smoke room and among them the inevitable quiet man. Conundrums had been the order of the evening and the fun waxed fast and furious. Then the quiet man spoke. "It's easy," he began, "to answer such riddles as 'Why is your hat like a baby?' which contains only one simile, but some of those with two and more are twisters. For instance, what is the difference between the son of a millionaire, an organ and a gum pot? "I give it up," said the mustard traveler, who was generally very hot at guessing riddles. "The son of a millionaire is an heir to millions, while an organ has a million alms. See?" "But what about the gum pot?" inquired the hodiery representative. "Oh, that's just where you stick," replied the quiet man. The Better Way. "They used to quarrel a great deal." "Yes, but they're getting along much better now." "What happened?" "Nothing. He just discovered that instead of arguing it was easier and quicker to admit everything and ask forgiveness." Reasonable Inference. Mrs. Gabby—The woman across the way has a mean, suspicious nature. Mrs. Hearall—Why, do you know her? Mrs. Gabby—No, but she always pull down the blinds at her windows when she lights the gas in her rooma. H. J. M.

Wednesday, at noon, chartered cars were donated by the city to convey the delegates to the Auditorium to the free Noonday Organ Recital, given by Clarence Reynolds, city organist on the great municipal organ. Three hundred miles of wiring were used in the cables of this organ. The largest pipe is forty inches square at the large end and weighs 1,250 pounds. The smallest pipe is three-fourths of an inch and weighs one-half ounce. In addition to the noble and dignified tone qualities of a cathedral organ, there are embodied many percussion effects, such as two harps, two sets of chimes, two xylophones, glockenspiel, vibrating bells, sleighbells, drums, tympani, castinets, tambourines, and a Steinway grand piano played from the organ keyboard. After listening to six magnificent numbers, the delegates and friends were taken back to the church, after having spent a most enjoyable musical hour. AS REPORTED BY PRESS AGENT. The Tuesday forenoon session of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs, which was presided over by Mrs. J. C. Napier of Nashville, Tenn., was held in the auditorium of Shorter Chapel, 23rd and Washington Streets, at 10 a. m. Re ports of various committees were read, including those of Chairman of Program Committee, Mrs. Myrtle Foster Cook of Missouri; Executive Board, Miss Hallie Q. Brown of Ohio; Treasurer, Mrs. Ida Joyce Jackson of Ohio; Recording Secretary, Mrs. Reherta J. Dunbar of Rhode Island; Corresponding Secretary, Miss Georgia A. Nugent of Kentucky. National Organizer, Mrs. Victoria Clay-Haley of Missouri; Chairman Printing, Mrs. M. E. Stewart of Kentucky; Editor-in-Chief, Mrs. Booker T. Washington of Alabama; after which an offering was taken, followed by singing "America," by the audience. Visitors from the white women's clubs made brief speeches of welcome. The President, Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, delivered her annual address, which was the climax of the meeting. She gave a report of her trip over the country, East, West and into the depths of the South, of how she was forced to ride many miles in the Jim Crow cars, exposed to many indignities against her race as practiced in the South while on the other hand there were many bright pictures of excellent fare and courtesies extended to her. In her address, Mrs. Talbert gave many striking points. In speaking on the war she said, "If all citizens had responded to our Country's Call as did the Negro, there would be no need of enacting draft laws."

In speaking on conditions of Colored people in the South she proclaimed: "No longer must any section of this country feel that anything is good enough for the Negro. They have come from $50 per year to $1,500 wage earners, which means independence, self-respecting and self-educating." She added: "Continue to trust in God, but keep your powder dry." Mrs. Talbert spoke on the mob law on the South and said that "The government should make lynching a treason punishable by death." "America must make reparation for the hundreds of lynchings of colored people." The Houston, Tex., riot, in which members of the 24th Infantry participated, was mentioned, but the speaker said that it was to painful to recite in detail, but she said: "I am confident that never again will a white man dare slap a Negro womans face in the presence of Negro soldiers and men." On patriotism she said: "In the Third Liberty Loan Drive over 7,000 colored women took active part, reporting over $5,000,000 subscribed by Negroes." Mrs. Talbert told of the story of the redemption of Frederick Douglass Home, Aanacostia, Cedar Hill, Washington, D. C., valued at over $65,000.00. Stating that it was now the property of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs to have and to hold forever without any taxation of any kind. At the close of her address, Mrs. Land of the White Federated Clubs of Denver, gave a toast on the boys "over there" as a tribute to the excellency of this wonderful woman's message, while the audience stood as one person in appreciation. Several telegrams were read, including the following from the War Department and from the Iowa State Negro Bar Association: Washington, D. C. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, President National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs in Convention Assembled, Shorter's Chapel, 23rd and Washington Streets, Denver, Colorado: In behalf of the War Department I send greetings to the National Federation of Colored Women's Clubs in Convention Assembled at Denver. Your Federation represents the highest aspirations, the loftiest ideals and the most practical achievements of the womanhood of our race at this time as at all times you are nobly doing your part for the National welfare for the preservation of American traditions and for the triumph of our country's arms. Your patriotism is of the purest quality and your service is willing, prompt and sympathetic. I be speak for you a convention that shall be on par with your great meetings of other years and a session that shall be marked by unity of purpose, harmony of methods and of untold good to our race and country. The secretary of War joins in this expression of cheer and wishes you God speed in the cause for which you are so earnestly striving. EMMETT J. F. SCOTT. Special Assistant War Department. Buxton, Iowa. Mrs. Mary B. Talbert. President National Association Colored Women's Club, 23rd and Washington Streets, Denver, Colo. Please accept my hearty congratulations upon the great accomplishments of the peerless organization over which your good and gracious lady-ship has the honor to preside, the saving of the Frederick Douglass Home is especially noteworthy. Our noble women are the world's best. Regret that I cannot be present and wish for you a pleasant and profitable session. GEORGE H. WOODSON. The climax of the Wednesday session was reached when in the evening the burning of the mortgage on the late Frederick Douglass home, Ana costia, Cedar Hall, Washington, D. C., took place. This property is valued at $65,000 and is now the property of the N. A. C. W. Clubs, to hold forever exempt from all taxation. It ```markdown ``` will be beautified and all relics, manuscripts and articles of historical value to the race will be accumulated therein for the benefit of the entire race and will be come a mecca to which the children will journey for information and inspiration. Two years ago $15,000, thru the effort of Mrs. Talbert, President, was paid off and our own Mme. C. J. Walker had the distinguished honor of touching the match which turned that heavily burdened instrument of writing into ashes. We have been unable to cover this great gathering of notable women and galaxy of rapidly passing events on the account of our special edition. For that reason we were not able to see and interview many of our distinguished guests. We hope to fully publish in our "Aftermath" the names and doings of the delegates and officers. FROM MARY By JANE WILKINS. (Copyright, 1918, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Grandma Bates sat alone at the window, rocking. She was always rocking these days. She was too feeble for work about the house, and her old eyes too dim for much fine sewing. She sat rocking gently, looking out at the mellow autumn landscape. "Leaves a-falling," she murmured to herself. "When they are most beautiful and brightest-colored they can drop. They don't have to hang on and on. Oh, if folks were only like that, if only there were something I could do!" The sound of quick footsteps on the porch outside arrested her attention, and she looked up eagerly as a slim, dark-haired girl entered the room. Mary's coming was always like the coming of the sun to Grandma Bates. But today Mary was not smiling. There were traces of tears on her rosy cheeks, and her lips were quivering. She buried her head in the old lady's lap and shook with sobs. "Oh, grandma, grandma!" Grandma Bates stroked the girl's smooth head with a tremulous hand. Grandma Bates stroked the girl's smooth head with a tremulous hand. "There, there, honey, don't cry," she urged. "Whatever your trouble is I guess I've had it, too. There isn't much I haven't been through in my time, and I know things come out right somehow. Tell grandma what you're crying about." "It's Jim, grandma. We've had a quarrel. Oh, yes, it was silly. I can't tell you what it was about, but it happened a week ago. I old him I didn't want him ever to come near me again—yes, I did—and he hasn't, all this week. He acts as if he thought I meant what I said. He ought to have known—" The shadow of a smile flickered over the old lady's face, and the light of whimsical memories warmed her eyes. "Just so!" she agreed. "I remember when I quarreled with your grandfather, too. It was about the color of a horse, I think, or something as stupid." Within half an hour Grandma Bates was busily clicking her needles over a lapel of khaki-colored worsted, and Mary was listening, with an occasional preoccupied sigh, to tales of that other war, the war to which her grandfather had marched away never to return. And so, through the week that followed they knitted together, the old lady guiding the girl's fingers as she learned to turn heels and toes, "purl" and "blind-off." And then, one day, the girl came in white-lipped and sat with her knitting untouched, her eyes dark and tragic. Grandma Bates knew that something had happened, but she wisely kept her silence, and at last Mary spoke. "He's enlisted," she said dully. "Jim's enlisted. His sister told me so this morning. And if he goes without my seeing him again—" "He won't," said the old lady confidently. "Elither he will come to see you, or else you will write and ask him to." ```markdown ``` THE LATE ROBERT W. SPEER who, before his death, preciously denoted the use of the City Auditorium to the Natl Convention. The great municipal organ was played 30 minutes for the visitors. Was a staunch friend of the Negro. Was to make the welcome address in behalf of the city, but death intervened. "Oh, I can't! If only I weren't so stubborn and stupid. I can't, grandma, and I'm sure that Jim will never come first." But Mrs. Bates shook her wise old heend and said no more. Several days passed and nothing happened, except that Mary grew pale with the struggle she was waging. But Mary's grandmother kept steadily at work upon the sweaters, socks and helmets which she completed with amazing rapidity. And if anyone had noticed, there was a curious, happy little smile about her lips at times, a secret twinkle in her eye when she looked at Mary. One evening after the old lady had gone to bed Mary sat alone trying to read, straining her ears for the sound of steps which never came. And then, quite suddenly, they did come. As of old there was a quick ring at the bell, an impatient tattoo on the door-pane. Mary opened the front door, to see her Jim, in khaki. He came in as though nothing had happened. "Like my uniform, Mary?" he asked. They talked for a strained five minutes of things that didn't matter, every-day things that had existed before their quarrel. And after a while he took her hand again and they made mutual confessions, each one insisting on the blame for that misunderstanding. "It was all my fault, Mary, every bit. You don't know how hard it's been to keep away from you, especially since I knew I was to go to France. I've tried and tried to get over my stubborn, stupid pride and come to you, but I couldn't. If you hadn't sent me that sweater to show how you felt—" "Sweater?" she repeated vaguely. "Yes, it fits beautifully, too. When I unwrapped it and saw the words 'From Mary'—when I saw how good and forgiving you were, I felt like all kinds of a scoundrel, I can tell you." Mary sat dazed. She had sent no sweater, she opened her lips to say so, and then, as a sudden thought came to her, she remained silent. She would tell Jim later, when she had made sure. Next morning Mary stole in with her grandmother's cup of tea and found the old lady waiting for her, bright-eyed. "I know what you're going to say," began Grandma Bates. "But it brought him, didn't it? And I didn't say what Mary. I guess my name's Mary, too." "It seems to me," said the almost philosopher, "that the fellow who is constantly losing his temper would have sense enough to quit hunting it up every time." One Reason. The reason some men are so careless is because they know they can get away with it by merely saying "Excuse me." Maybe He Was. "So the doctor is going to operate on you tomorrow?" "Yes," said the financier, "and he looks as happy as if he were going to cut a melon."—Judge.

From a membership of ten it was increased to a membership of seventy-five. "With this membership of ten, we notified the local board that we were organized, and made application for affiliation with the National War Savings Committee. It was about two weeks before we received the certificate stating, that the Niagara War Savings Society was affiliated with the National War Saving Committee at Washington, D. C., signed by Frank A. Vanderlip, Chairman of the National War Saving Committee." Later on I received a certificate for the agency, authorizing me as agent, from the Treasury at Washington, Signed by William G. McAdoo, Secretary of the Treasury. "We are now carrying on a very successful work, receiving as many pledges from white patrons as from colored."

"There are so many queues in England now," he said, "that one is apt to get mixed up. "A young American soldier passed four hours in a very long queue the other day. His spirits were superb. He amused everybody with his quips and sallies. But he uttered a low cry of dismay when his turn at last came, and a girl thrust a small greasy packet in his hand, saying: "No tea today, but here's a nice half-ounce of margarine." "Well, I'll be jiggered!" said the American. "Is this or ain't it the gallery entrance to the Frivolity theater?"" Hash Once Upon a Time. "Where's that old joke about hash?" inquired the man who had just returned from the north pole. "Hash?!" repeated the landlord. "Oh, yes! There was once a time when people could afford to eat meat and potatoes and onlons all at once."—London Answers. SURELY IS. Jiggs—What is meant by the "Eternal City?" Jaggs—Hades, I guess.

"The young man before marriage is light and gay. She's all the world to him." "Why does he look so careworn after marriage?" "He has the world on his shoulders then." May Have Happened. "This paper tells of a man passing himself off as a woman for 20 years. Now I wonder—" "What do you wonder?" "If I ever gave up my seat to that lobster on the street car." The Dominant Personality. "Does your boy Josh cause you any worry?" "Some," replied Farmer Corntossel. "While he's gone to war we can't help worryin' 'bout whether we're runnin' the place to suit him." The Danger. "The gay young lieutenant having a good time with all those pretty girls is taking big chances." "In what way?" "Isn't it always dangerous when a spark gets near too much powder?" Telling Things. "You can tell more about a woman by looking at the man with her than by looking at her," remarked the wise individual. "And you'd better tell less about her," countered the silly individual. Patience on a Pullman. "When do you expect to arrive at your destination?" "Hadn't thought of that. When I travel now I simply get on board a train and wait and see what happens."

The Masonic Fraternity who has used the Castilina hall for the past two years are now seeking a new location for the future. We hope to soon learn how to buy and erect buildings of our own. The text the Rev. preached last night was Romans 7:24. "O wretched man that I am! Who shall deliver me from the body of this death." The wedding bells will soon be ringing on South Third Avenue in the 700 block. Something to Thing Over. Quite a number of churches throut the country have voted an increase of salary to their pastors. Pocatello is a wide-awake city with a good pastor and should never lag in this matter. Every person in the city, especially the members, should obligate themselves to set aside a small amount regularly each month to help care for our blessed pastor's necessary expenses. Just as you sell your brain and labor, so does he, and he deserves to be paid regularly and promptly. High cost of living and other general commodities have increased in proportion with inflated financial conditions our pastor must combat, and unless he is paid for his services in accordance with the living standards of today he will be unavoidedly forced to suffer, one way or the other; if he purchases food on credit, he will not be able to pay the bill, if he pays cash only, his family will go hungry many times so you see the matter is too plain for discussion. Any fair-minded church member will readily agree for an increase in the pastor's salary. Is it not a shame upon Pocatello for our beloved pastor, in a city of 40 or 50 families, besides the floating element of men and women, to be compelled to walk the streets of Pocatello, Idaho, hunting for work? Daily the responsibilities and burdens increases upon our pastor as he sets about harmonizing, teaching, studying and explaining the practical side of the gospel of Jesus Christ with present day conditions. An up-to-date, educated pastor must study daily, and devote his whole time to the study of the Bible and church problems. He must perform various duties to the membership or his flock will suffer. It takes incessant study and unusual research to properly instruct the members and meet demands. The pastor must or at least should be paid sufficient salary to comfortably care for himself and family, that his full time and attention should be given for the benefit of his flock. C. C. Young. POCATELLO BRIEFLET8. Services of the A. M. E. Church were well attended Sunday. The morning class service was a record breaker in attendance and the manifestation of the Holy Spirit. Mrs. W. S. Brown has returned to our city from Butte, Montana. Mrs. Edward Goins has returned home from Salt Lake City, Utah, where she found a bouncing baby boy. They are both doing well. WHERE SHE FITTED By VINCENT G. PERRY. (Copyright, 1918, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) As a reporter Martha Flddas was a failure; everyone admitted it. It was doubtful if Martha believed herself of much value on the Telegram staff. Why she was kept there was more than anyone was willing to say, but some of the boys hinted that it was because she was pretty and Phil Weekes, the city editor, had a weak spot in his heart for all pretty girls. Her good looks had not been the only thing he had seen. She was sociable, had a winning personality and was a splendid conversationalist—qualities that should have made a successful reporter. The first week was enough to show Phil that there were many things Martha lacked that she should also have had, but he hoped experience would develop them. After the first month he gave up the idea of putting her on assignments that required headwork. If there was a story that required data Martha would be sure to miss it; she never spelled names correctly, always got numbers and even the names of streets wrong. It would have been easier for him if the managing editor had relieved him of the unpleasant duty of giving Martha her notice—but just the same he did it. "If you don't get rid of that girl and get somebody you can depend upon in her place, you are going to run up against a tight place some time and get yourself in wrong over it," one of the senior reporters remarked to Phil one day. "She's all right," Phil answered. "She hasn't fitted in yet." The tight place came sooner than they expected it. A lot of big things loomed up all at once and every man on the staff was given a night assignment. Phil left a convention meeting for himself to cover. He was the last to leave the reportorial room that night and was just putting on his hat when the telephone rang. It was the managing editor. "There is a big meeting in Plattsburg tonight to decide definitely on the electric road. See that it is covered," he ordered. Phil knew the importance of the story and decided he would have to go to Plattsburg himself. The next car left at eight o'clock, getting him there barely in time for the meeting. That wouldn't give him time to touch the convention. He scanned his assignment book. There was no one else who could cover it. Nothing could be neglected. How about Martina? He would have to chance her, but he hated to think of the story she would turn in the next day. Had she a telephone? She hadn't. She didn't seem to have anything she should have had, he thought angrily. She didn't room very far away; he would have time to call and tell her to cover the convention. He could write out a list of the things for her to remember to take notes on and perhaps she would get a half decent story for him to rewrite. Martha looked her best when she opened her door to his knock. Phil couldn't refrain from standing back to admire her. She looked lovely in a big white apron and white cap. "Come right in, Phil." Martha invited, as she opened the door wide. The room looked very inviting, so Phil didn't refuse. After he had gone into details of just what he wanted her to do, and had her write them out, Phil prepared to go. "Won't you stay and have tea?" Martha asked. "I have a lovely supper all ready—steak, fried onions, scalloped potatoes, homemade tarts and the best cup of tea you ever tasted. I'm a dandy cook." Phil had been using his nostrils for five minutes, and when Martha enumerated the things he had been smelling he couldn't refuse her invitation. "I wouldn't have had time to go home for supper," he said, so he sat down at the snowy white table, "but I hate to be robbing you." "You are doing nothing of the sort." Martha smiled. "I had supper now." E. 23rd Ave. and Washington St. PRESBYTER, J. THOS. HAZELL S. T. B. EAT CORN SAVE WHEAT CENTRAL PAPTIST CHURCH Rev. P. J. Price, Pastor. 2414 California St., Phone Champa 1059.

"Whover did you learn to cook? This is the finest steak I have had since I left home. If the supper is like this you can invite me here as often as you like." "Would you really like to come?" she asked. "I have often been on the point of asking you, but I hadn't courage enough to. You have been so kind to me that I wanted to show you that I could do something right. You must think that I can't, for I know I have appeared stupid to you. I was never cut out for a reporter or a business woman or anything but just a housekeeper. I think. I love cooking and housekeeping. I seem to fit into it." "You certainly do," he said, earnestly. "I'm enthusiastic about your cooking." When he saw how pleased that made her he kept right on with his compliments and he meant most of them, too. Then next morning, when Martha handed in her report of the convention meeting the smile Phil gave her caused her to blush furiously. As he started to read the report he shook his head doubtfully, and then his face brightened as he thought to himself: "She certainly doesn't fit into reporting, but I know where she does fit in, and some day I'm going to ask her to change." Martha had been watching his face, and when he looked up and their eyes met she understood. Favoritism. "De mule has too much de best of it," remarked Mr. Erastus Pinkley. "If I lays hands on it dey'll have me up befo' de Animal Pervention Society. But spos'n de mule kicks me." "What then f" "He ain' g'ineter git reported.

"Is she going into opera?" "No. I don't care whether she sings or not. I want to do what I can to make it less disagreeable when she gets cross and hollers at me and her mother."

S. S. HOOVER GIVES REASON LOW SUGAR SUPPLIES HOOVER GIVES REASON LOW SUGAR SUPPLIES "A number of causes have simulated to make our sugar position more difficult than we could have anticipated at the beginning of the year," says United States Food Administrator Herbert Hoover in a communication received by Federal Food Administrator Thomas B. Stearns. "The increased shipping needed by our growing army in France has necessitated the curtailment of sugar transportation, particularly from the longer voyage, and has thus reduced supplies both to the allies and ourselves from remote markets. Some of the accessible sugar producing areas have proved a less yield than was anticipated such as certain of the West Indian Islands. The domestic beet and Louisiana crops have fallen below anticipation. There has been some destruction of best sugar factories in the battle area of France and Italy. We have lost sugar by submarines. "As close an estimate as we can make indicates a reasonable expectation from all sources of about 1,600,000 tons of sugar for the United States' consumption during the last half of the present year. This is based upon the maintenance of the present measure allied ration. An improvement in shipping conditions would of course relieve this situation as quantities of sugar are in unavailable markets. We must, however, base the distribution of sugar during the next six months, upon the above footing. After that period the new West Indian crop will be available. "This supply of 1,600,000 tons necessitates a considerable reduction in our consumption. To provide three pounds of sugar per person per month for household use, to take care of our army and navy, and to provide for the necessary preservation of fruit, milk, etc., will require about 1,500,000 tons of sugar for the six months."—Herbert Hoover. The Political Economist—What do you do to inspire public confidence in you? The Trust Magnate—I don't care for confidence. Just so I avoid inviting suspicion I'm satisfied. Not Real.

Subscription $1.50 per vr Women of the West, stand by us now. Visit your displeasure upon that political party that has ignored and held cheaply the interests of women. Let no party, whatsoever its name, dare to slur the demands of women, and come to you for your endorsement at the polls. Make them feel your indignation. Let them know that women stand by women. Show them that no party may deal lightly with the needs of women, and hope to enlist your support. Women of the western states, it is only thus that we shall win. It is only by unity, and common purpose, and common action, and by placing the interests of women above all other political considerations, until all women are enfranchised, that we shall deserve to win. Liberty must be fought for. And, women of the nation, this is the time to fight. This is the time to demonstrate our sisterhood, our spirit, our blithe courage, and our will. It is women for women now, and shall be till the fight is won. Sisters of the West, may we count on You? Think well before you answer. Other considerations press upon you. But surely this great question of woman's liberty comes first. How can our nation be free with half of its citizens politically enslaved? How can the questions that come before a government for decision, be decided aright, while half the people whom these decisions affect are mute: Women of the West, stand by us in this crisis. Give us your help and we shall win. Fight on our side and liberty is for all of us. For the first time in the world women are asked to unite with women in a common cause. Will you stand by? Women of the West, if you love and respect your sister women, if you hate unfairness and contempt, if you cherish self-respect, you must send any party, which has abused the interests of women, down to defeat in the suffrage states at the next election. Make it plain that neglect of women's interests and demands will not be tolerated. Show a united front and whatever the result at the next election, there never again will be a political party that will dare ignominy claims. You know that politicians act when it is expedient to act! When to act means votes, and not to act means loss of votes. President Wilson made this plain when he supported the eight-hour-day measure for railway workers. If he cared about principle per se he would himself have urged an eight-hour day. But this was not worth while. What is worth while is to act for those who have organization, unity and political strength behind them. Negro women of the West, do you thoroughly gather this? We have but to exhibit organisation, unity and political strength and victory is ours. More, I say only when we have done so, shall we deserve victory. The gods of government help those who help themselves. Therefore, women voters and sisters, and one day (election day) fellow workers, let us help ourselves. Say to the rulers of this nation: "You deal negligently with the interests of women at your peril. As you have sowed so shall ye reap. We, as women, refuse to uphold that party that has betrayed us. We refuse to uphold any party until all women are free. We are tired of being the political auxiliaries of men. It is the woman's fight only we are making. Together we shall stand shoulder to shoulder for the greatest principle the world has ever known, the right of self-government." No man is good enough nor has the right to govern any woman without that woman's consent. Not until that right is won shall any other interest receive consideration. This demand of ours is more urgent than all others. It is impossible for any problem that confronts the nation today to be de- THE GRAND THEATRE CON TINUES TO PLEASE.

Victory is in sight. It depends upon how we stand in this coming election—united or divided—whether we shall win and whether we shall deserve to win. We have no money, no elaborate organization, no one interested in our success, except anxious-hearted women all over the country who cannot come to the battle line themselves. Here and there in farm house and factory, by the fire-side in the hospital, and school-room, wherever women are sorrowing and working and hoping, they are praying for our success. Only the hopes of women have we; and our own spirit and a mighty principle. Women of these states, unite. We have only our chains to lose, and a whole nation to gain. Remember your sisters everywhere, as democracy is democracy the world over.
