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.
Welcomes Association.

Many other things the spee represented at the meeting had resident, Mrs. Mary Talbert, annov of the convention, the war depart allow 2,000 colored nurses to go nurse the men of their own race. The point that they can do the work she also said that director of Rail will be asked to end the day of the filthy and undemocratic. In addi tments recited by Governor Gunen, working for $1 per day had raction and that her race had subscrip tird Liberty loan.
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.

Beginning with "America" the audience as great as it was kept completely electricied by the excellent showing made our own representatives being in the persons "addresses of welcome" from State Federation; Mrs. G. N. Ross, president, from city Federation, Mrs. Thetha Ector, president; from state Gov. J. C. Gunter and from city ex may or Sharpley Mrs. Jennie H. 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.

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.

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.

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-

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.

two sets of chimes, two xylophones,
glockenspiel, vibrating bells, sleigh-
bells, drums, tympani, castinets, tam-

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.

Visitors from the white women’s clubs
made brief speeches’ of welcome.
The President, Mrs. Mary B. Tal-
bert, delivered her annual address,
which was the climax of the meetinP.
She gave a report of her trip over the

Crow cars, exposed to many indigni.
ties 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.”
“Let's show ourselves Americans by
not going out into separate camps to
ourselves, but be willing to co-operate
with other classes.”
In speaking on conditions of Col-
ored people in the South she pro-
claimed: “No longer must any sec-
tion 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 independ-
ence, self-respecting and self-educat-
ing.” 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 gov-
ernment should make lynching a trea-
son punishable by death.” “America
must make reparation for the hun-
dreds of lynchings of colored people.”
The Houston, Tex., riot, in which
members of the 24th Infantry partict-
pated, was mentioned, but the speak-
er said that it was to painful to recite
in detail, but she said: “I am conf-
dent 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 Doug-
lass 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 ex-
cellency of this wonderful woman's
message, while the audience stood as
one person in appreciation.
Several telegrams were read, includ-
ing the following trom the War De-
partment and from the lowa State
Negro Bar Association: r

‘The climax of the Wednesday ses-
sion was reached when in’ the even-
ing the burning of the mortgage on
the late Frederick Dougiass home, An-
a costia, Cedar Hall, Washington, D.

ued at $65,000 and is now the proper:
ty of the N. A. C. W. Clubs, to hold

scripts and articles of historical value

in for’ the benefit of the entire race

‘bert, President, was paid off and our

Grandma Bates sat alone at the win-
dow, rocking. She was always rock-
Ing 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 murmurred
to herself. “When they are most beau-
tiful and brightest-colored they can
drop. They don't have to hang on
and on. Oh, if folks were only like
that, 1 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 Baten.
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 Iady’s
lap and shook with sobs.
“Oh, grandma, grandma!”
Grandma Bates stroked the girl's
smooth head with a tremulous hand.
“There, there, honey, don't cry,”*ahé
urged, “Whatever your trouble {s I
guess I've had it, too. There. tan't
much I haven't been through fn ty
time, and I know things come Gut Aight
somehow. Tell grandma what you're
crying about.” 7
“It'a Jim, grandma, We've hed-a
quarrel. Oh, yes, it was silly. I can't
tell you what it was about, but it hap-
Domed a ween ane wapiaiies Tale
want him ever to come near me again
—yes, I did—and he hasn't, all thin
week. He acts an if he thought I
meant what I sald. He ought to have
known—” "
‘The shadow of a smile flickered over
the old lady's face, and the light of
‘whimstcal memorfes warmed her even.
“Just 0!” she agreed, “I remember
when I quarreled with your grandfa-
ther, too. It was about the color of
n horse, I think, or something an ntu-
pid.” :
‘Within half an hour Grandma Bates
was busily clicking her needles over
a: lapel of khakl-colored worsted, and
Mary was listening. with an occasional
Preoccupled sigh, to tales of that othee
war, the war to which her grandfas
ther had marched away never to re=
turn.
And so, through the week that fol-
lowed they knitted together, the old
Jady guiding the girl's fingers as she
learned to turn heels and toes, “purl”
and “bind-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 sald dully.
“Jim's enlisted. His sister told me xo
this morning. And if he goes without
mny seeing him again—”
“He won't," sald the old Indy con-
Adently. “Either he will come to see
you, or else you will write and ask
him to.”

nated the use of the City Auditorium
to the Nat'l) Conventiel. .The great
munisipal organ waa played 30.min-
utes for the visitors... Was a staunch,
friend of the Negro... Was to make the
welcome addraés in behalf of the city,
but death intervened.
“Oh, I can't! @ only I weren't #0
stubborn and stupid. I can't, grand-
ma, and Tm sure that Jim will never
come first.” >
But Mrs. Bates shook her wise old
herd and said no more.
Several days passed and nothing
happened, éxcept that Mary grew pale
with the struggle she was waging.
| But Mary's grandmother kept stead-
ily at work upon the sweaters, socks
and helmets which she completed with
amazing rapidity. And if anyone had
noticed, there was a curious, happy
Uttle smile about her lips at times, a
secrct twinkle In her eye when she
looked at Mary.
‘One evening after the old Iady 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
‘Sim, tn khakt,
| He came in as though nothing had
happened.
“Like my uniform, Mary?” he asked.
‘They talked for a strained five min-
utes of things that didn’t matter,
‘every-day things that had existed be-
‘fore thelr quarrel. And after 2 while
he took her hand again and they made
mutual confesstons, each one insisting
on the blame for that misunderstand-
Ing.
| “It was all my fault, Mary, every
‘bit. You don't know how hard it's
heen to keep away from you, eapecial-
| ly since I knew I was to go to France.
T've tried and tried to get over my
stubborn, stupid pride and come to
you, but I couldn't. If yon hadn't sent
|e 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 nay #0,
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 Indy waiting for her, bright-
eyed.
“I know what you're going to ray,”
began Grandma Bates. “But it brought
him, didn’t {t? And I didn't say what
Mary. I guess my name's Marv. too.”
“It seems to ‘me,” said the almost
philosopher, “that the fellow who In
constantly losing his temper would
have sense enough to quit hunting It
up every time.”
‘The reason some men are 60 care-
less is because they know they can
get away with it by merely saying
“Excuse me.”

A MISCUR.
Sir F. E. Smith told a queue story
at a Washington luncheon.
“There are so many queues in Eng-
land now,” he sald, “that oue ts 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'M be Jiggered!’ said the
American. ‘In this or ain't it the gal-
lery entrance to the Frivolity the
ater?”

“Where's that old joke about hash?”
inquired the man who had just return

“Hash?” repeated the landlord. “Oh,
yes! There was once a time when peo-
ple could afford to eat meat and pota-
toes and onlons all at once.”—Londoa

POCATELLO NEWS.
Mr. William Hall, from the state of Illinois, and Miss Mabel Grace, of Pocatello, Idaho, were happily united in marriage Saturday afternoon, July 6th. Rev. J. A. Duncan, officiated. Mr. Clarence Stoglin and Mrs. Elizabeth Stoglin were unfortunate in the death of this war baby boy who died a few hours after birth. The mother is at the Sisters' Hospital and is doing well. Mr. Frank James has taken employment for the summer at Yellowstone Park. Mr. and Mrs. Ed More, formerly of Kansas City, are spending the summer in our city. The special sermon delivered by Rev. J A Duncan Sunday evening, July 7th met the hearty approval of all present. The pastor is hard at work gathering in his Conference Claims. Don't fall to see him and pay your money at once. 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."

pared for two, but the girl I expected telephoned that she couldn't come."
"The ungrateful girl, and a supper like this!" Phil exclaimed, as he started on the steak. "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. All my friends Jes' laugh an' ack like dey thought de mule showed good judgment."
The Difference.

Training.
"My daughter is having her voice trained," remarked Mr. Cumrox. "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."

AN EASTERN APPEAL TO WESTERN WOMEN WINNING THE WEST
S FOR WOMEN THROUGH SUFFRAGE.
‘The atmosphere {s growing dense with political breaths. Thinking men
and women are turning their minds to men, women and issues. Interest
jn the affairs of government is now at high tide with us. The Negro is
learning well the fact that all good, honest and useful citizen# consider it
their bounden duty to take part in politics and to cast their votes as free
American citizens in the interest of good government, impartial adminis-
tration of the law, protection of all citizens by the law, and justice in
every case that cannot be questioned.
Nothing can take the place of the use of the ballot. It is a powerful
weapon, and may be used for good or for bad. It is a privilege offered to
every citizen of our city, county and state, that he may do his duty to his
wife and children, to his neighbor and all who make up our commonwealth,
Awith the best of his ability, with a clear conscience that he has raised bis
voice, cast his vote for the best possible men who will be true to their trusts
fair and impartial in their official life and stand by the law as the law is
written. ‘
‘The Negro woman has been asleep as to politica) affairs too long. She
must wake up; she must be aroused to the full sense of her political duty.
\svhe day is far spent. Sho is far behind that part of citizens of our country
who shape the government and effect its policies. She must be made to feel
that she is a part of the government, and that it is her privilege to be a
vital force in it, rather than a passive factor. No man, no woman, no race,
can ever claim or expect the full protection of the law who throws away her
opportunity to vote and fails to use the opportunity in helping to choose
men to direct the affairs of the people.
‘Now. let every Negro woman understand that it is her duty, yes, her
sacred obligation, which she owes to God, to her family, to her fellow-citt-
ens and to rising generations to qualify herself to bear all burdens, as
well as enjoy all benefits.
Stirring Appeal to Women Voters.
‘Therefore, the unenfranchised women of the National appeal to Western
Yoters for help in their fight for political freedom. We appeal to you to
help us, for you alone have both power and will. The dominant political
parties have the power to liberate the women of the United States, but
they have refused to exercise that power on our behalf, and on behalf
of justice and of freedom. They have refused to put party machinery back
it the constitutional amendment. They have blocked the amendment at
Svery turn, Therefore, women of the West, let no free woman, let no wom-
fan that respects herself and womankind, iend her strength to any of the
parties that turn their faces against the justice of the women of the nation.
Politically speaking, the women of America have been a weak and helpless
class without the political pressure to push their demands. Now, women
of the free States, we are no longer helpless.
‘Now, for the first time in our history, women have the power to enforce
their demands, and the weapon with which to fight for woman's liberation.
You, women of the West, who possess that power, will you use it on behalf
of women? We have waited so long and so patiently and so hopelessly for
oe from other political east May we not depend upon the co-operation
good-will of women in tics? Shall we not feel that women will re-
spond to the appeal of women, and shall we not see their hands stretched out
to us in and help?

Women of the West, stand by us now. Visit your displeasure upon
that political party that has ignored and held cheaply the interests of wom-
en.
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 nly 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 an-
swer. Other considerations press upon you. But surely this great ques-
tion 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 ar« 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 nex
election, there never. again will be a political party that will dare ignois
our 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 elght-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
white 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 80, shall we deserve victory.
The gods of government help those who help themselves. Therefore, wom-
en 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 intereats 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 re-
ceive 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-

HOOVER GIVES REASON
LOW SUGAR SUPPLIES
“& number of causes have cumulat-
ed to make our sugar position more
difficult than we could have, anticipat-
ed at the beginning of the year,” says
United States Food Administrator
Herbert Hoover in a communication
received by Federal Food Administra-
tor Thomas B. Stearns. “The in-
creased shipping needed by our grow-
ing army in France has necessitated
the curtailment of sugar transporta-
tion, particularly from the longer voy-
age, and has thus reduced supplies
both te the allies and ourselves from
Femote markets, Some of the accessl-
ble sugar producing areas have proved
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 beet su-
gar 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 expecta-
tion from all sources of about 1,600,000
tons of sugar for the United States’
consumption during the last halt of
the present year. This is based upoa
the maintenance of the present mea-
gre allied ration. An improvement im
shipping conditions wuld of course
Feliove this situation as quantities of
sugar are in unavailable markets, We
must, however, base the distribution of
Sugar during the next six months, up-
‘on the above footing. After that period
the new West Indian crop will be
available.
“This supply of 1,600,000 tons neces-
sitates a considerable reduction in our
consumption. To provide three pounds
of sugar per person per month for
Rousehold 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.

cided: adequately or justly while half the people are excluded from its
consideration. If democracy means anything it means a right to a voice in
government, and there is a reason for the conceded supremacy of that right.
Women are as deeply concerned as men in foreign policy. Whether we shall
have a civil or militaristic future is of deepest moment to us. If things go
wrong we pay the price—in lives, in money, in happiness. We care about
what part of tariff we shall have. If the cost of living goes up, we, as house-
keepers, are the ones to suffer. We are deeply interested in the question of
national service. We know and must help decide, whether our sons are to
be trained to peace or war. To decide these questions without us, questions
that concern-us as vitally as they concern men, is as absurd as would be
an attempt to exclude the mother fromi influence in the home or care of
her family.
We say to the government:
“You shall not embark on & policy of peace or war until we are con-
sulted
“You shall not make appropriations for the building of ships and en-
gines of war, until we, who are taxed for such appropriations, give our con-
sent.
“You shall not determine what sort of national defenses we shall have,
whether civil or military, until we co-operate with you politically.
“You shall not educate our children to citizenship or soldierdom with-
out our wisdom and advice.
“You shall no longer make laws that burden us with taxes and high
prices, or that determine how our commodities shall be prepared and ly
whom, or that regulate our lives, our purchasing capacities, our homes,
our transportation and education of children, until we are free to act with
you.”
This is our demand.
This is why we place suffrage before all other national issues. ‘This is
why we will no longer tolerate government without our consent. This is
why we ask women to rise in revolt against that party that has ignored
the pleas of women for self-government, and every party that ignores the
claims of women, until we win.
Women of the West, will you make this fight? Will you take this stand?
Will you battle for your fellow women who are not yet free?
We bave no one but you to depend on. Men have made it plain that
they only: fight for us when it is worth their while, and you must make it
worth their while. You must ignore that party that has ignored women,
and demonstrate to all future parties that it ts dangerous to do 20.
It ts only for a little while. Soon the fight will be over. Victory ts 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 hos
pital, 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
rinciple. :
PrinQomen 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.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES.
The annual outing and field day of the Y. M. and the Y. W. held at the Rocky Mountain Lake last Thursday was ideal in every respect. As usual a large crowd was present, and the usual good order was maintained throughout the day. The committee in charge worked every minute of the time from the opening hour clear to the close, and it is due to their industry and splendid efforts that the splendid success was achieved. The managers wish to thank the friends and the public generally for their hearty support.
In order to give our men a better opportunity to hear some of the splendid lady speakers who are in the city, the Y. M. C. A. will hold a platform meeting on Sunday afternoon at four o'clock. Several prominent ladies have already promised to be on the program. It is hoped that everyone will come out and enjoy the great and splendid treat that is in store for them. The meeting will begin promptly at four o'clock.
