The Denver Star ESTABLISHED 1888 The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star Twenty-Ninth YEAR Number 49 DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, Aug. 3, 1918 FIVE CENTS A CO Prejudice or Justice--What? Why Scholars Use Term 'Negro' With "N" Prejudice is unchecked savagery. It is ruthless, inhuman beyond comprehension. Its basis is in ignorance. It violates the happy innocence of children. But children are the noble expression of life, new and wonderous. Theirs are the noblest memories of Yesterday and the fervid hopes of Tomorrow. They in their simple ignorance, laugh, unmindful of the laden weight of the dead air of these sorry times; they mock the apothegms of our ideals of racial superiority. Theirs is the world of God—the great lands of dreams What have they to do with the prejudice of men? Children, alike black and white, forget our mad jealousies; they are wills, sons, playmates, gods. Barriers of race do not, can not touch the majesty of their simple faiths. Social repression has not, as yet, fallen with calm stoism; but we, who know and feel the pangs, are conscious of a fearful potent—the awakening. We, then, adminster a rebuke to those who, consciously, embitter the intensity of hatred by petty insinuations. In doing this, let us say, we earnestly disclaim any invidious feelings. But we appeal to that fine Americanism which twelve millions of us help to preserve. There are two paramount reasons why the word "negro" should be capitalized. On page 1760 of the "New International Dictionary," there is a definition stating that a race is a family, tribe or nation believed to belong to the same stock; a kind of individuals with common characteristics, and intrests. To such a group, belongs the Negro. On page 117 of Wooley's "Handbook of Composition," acknowledged as authority by criterions of English, there is this rule: "Capitalize nouns and adjectives of language or race." Therefore, in order for a newspaper, magazine, periodical, text book, or other published article to be correct in its English forms, it must capitalize "Negro." A further reason for the capitalization of the word is to eliminate the humiliation caused by its non-capitalization, which is a badge of inferiority, an inference that the name "Negro" is less racial than descriptive. That it is a badge of contempt, is absolutely proved in the reading of various newspapers and magazines, where contempt for the Kaiser, and Germany as represented by the Kaiser, is shown by non-capitalization. Is it then, fair for the American press, undoubtedly the most powerful exponent of Democracy, to humiliate and insult twelve millions of the citizens who are helping in this nation's fight for world Democracy? A casual observation of the attempt of certain individuals to disregard the accepted rules of English reveals a propaganda as direful as that of Pan-Germanism. No other racial group, be it Jew or Indian, is confronted by such a challenge. One city editor curtly explained her attitude in a few words lavished with the spirit of nonchalance. She protested that mere lack of capitalization was not meant as a discouragement nor a reflection upon the race; she sought to profess friendship; yet as we watched the tell tale colorings in her face, sensed the background of passion, fearing lest, we might betray our mistrust of her frightful analogies,—and wisdom, we stood immovable, suspressing our real feelings. "One does not capitialize "white man," she exclaimed glibly. She eyed us deliberately; "Then why the word 'Negro?' " " 'White is the name of a color, but Negro is not. Does it not refer to ethnological classification?' we rejoined. One natural consequence of such a mental attitude is an accusation, which we view with unrelieved dismay, that there is an Anti-Negro propanganda, deadly and sinister. It seeks to throttle the ideals, the faith of the darker group, seek by implications and disillusionments to discourage, to oppress the rise of black men to heights of visisn. It would rob us of our glorious history, our gifts, our achievements. It would restrict us to depths. It would reveal us to the world in caricature, half souls, scarcely human, with no possibilities. This attitude is brutal, but lacks, to say the least, the support of a kindlier element which has access to moral vision. The failure to capitalize the word effects the white American and the black American. It shows to the world that there still exists in the hearts of one race of Americas, hatred for and prejudice against another race of Americans. DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, Aug. 3, 1918 CAPTAIN ROWAN DISMISSED AS HE DREW COLOR LINE LITTLE ROCK, ARK-- By virtue of a telegraphic communication from the war department recived at head quarters at Camp Pike, Captain Eugene C. Rowan, late of the 162nd Depot Brigade, was dissmissed from the service and Lieutenant Robert H. Hall, formerly of Brooklyn, N. Y., was dismissed and given a sentence at the military prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan Captain Rowan's case at tracted considerable attention while it was before a general court martial several months ago, because it was the first time the color line has figured in a national army court. Captian Rowan was charged with having refused to obey an order issued by the brigade commander calling for a troop formation, because it was asserted both colored and white soldiers were included in the formation. The officer is a native of Georgia, but has recently lived in Mississippi. Lieutenant Hall, deserted his organization late in February. Several days after his desertion a check-up of the mess fund revealed shortages amounting to about $7.000. He was arrested in San Francisco and brought back to camp. Hall is a native of Brooklyn N. Y. BATAVA, O. —William Carter, colored of Batavir, is the first one to enlist from this place, and entered the service Sunday. He left on Monday for Wilberforce College, Xenia where he will be given several weeks training before entering the service. He will make Uncle Sam a good and faithful soldier, one who his friends will be proud of. It will make other nations question the spirit of Democracy of which America is so boastful. In the hearts of the Negroes rankles a smouldering resentment engendered by injustices of the past. They wounder why a man who is well-educated, strictly disciplined, and of natural courage, is not worthy of being acknowledged as a member of a race rather than one of a breed. They wounder why an American newspaper said, "An Italian, a negro, and Jew were among the first drafted men." They wounder why the Italian and a Jew have precedence over the ancestor of a member of a race who fought that this nation might live. The following are a few of the most important organs of repute which capitalize the word "Negro" in every instance: (1) MAGAZINES—Annuals of American Academy of Political and Social Science. Atlantic Monthly, Art World and Crafts man, Current Opinion, The Crisis, The Forum, The New Republic, The Living Age, The Modern Review (Calcutta), Missionary Review, The Outlook, The Popular Science Monthly, The Survey, Poetry. NEWSPAPERS—Boston Transcript, Christian Science Monitor, Chicago Tribune, New York Evening Post, Springfield Republican, Wichita Beacon, Wisconsin State Journal, (1 Footnote)—Webster's New International Dictionary, page 1446. The present crisis challenges our entire program of social adjustments. The Negro's faith in America was never more manifest. In these drear times of unrest and clashing interst, he offers a silent protest. No other race, except the Negro has ever exchanged for race calumny its noblest services. His cause is hard beset, but he hopes and dreams, even as he fights, that the "world might be safe for Democracy." We, then, have the hardihood to protest to the gods that are. We pray the unimpassioned ear of those whose highest ideals are not enemies to their better selves. STANDING BY HIS COLORS John W. Hardy, most efficient, capable and faithful employee of Mr. L. C. Phipps, candidate for U. S. Senate. It happens to be our good fortune to present the likeness of Mr. J. W. Hardy, our own townsman and associate who has been given the honor of spreading the good news to make friends of our white brethern whose friendship we especially need at this critical time. A hide bound rock-ribbed Republican, yet alert after the interest of his race first. His steadiness and faithfulness to accomplish one thing, makes his selection all the more desirable to handle the responsibility of Mr. Phipps campaign among the colored people His long and close contract with Mr. Phipps easily assured Mr. Phipps who now seeks to honor and reward his faithfulness in small things, ought to be a very important deciding factor in Mr. Phipps favor. Mr. Phipps is really a big man and cannot be otherwise. How many men would thus reward their servant of twenty five or thirty years service with something uplifting when largely a chance of selection is at stake? Negroes, hold up J. W. Hardy's shinds, organe with him, work bru him and bring results to Mr. Phipps. Why not make Hardy a big Continued on page 5 S ONG STAND ence Spells Oppor- Negroes White House, and it has elect rified the entire country as it has seldom been thrilled be fore. It will be remembered by those familiar with the proceedings of the conference at the New Interior Department Building that the full force of the leaders who spoke was marshaled in opposition to the lynchings, burning and in human mob violence practiced mainly against colored people in various sections of the country, and that this lack of respect for the common rights of citizens was given as the most potent cause for the unrest among Negroes. This was the underlying reason for bringing the conference to gether from far distant points. The proceedings of the Conference reached the Pres. through the Committee on Public Information of which Mr. Geo. Creel is Chairman. The President's message is a wholesome rebuke to ruth less violators of the law, who almost invariably think they will be immune from punishment by the courts or by out raged public opinion. The Colored people are jubilant over the timely and straight forward pronouncement of the President of the United States and that such an utterance from the highest authority in the land will cause a wave of patriotic enthusiasm among them and in spire a keener impulse to assist in the many constructive war activities throughout the Republic cannot be doubted. BISHOP H. B. PARK'S AT CAMPBELLS Bishop H. B. Parks will preach at Campbell A. E. E. church Sunday night, 23rd and Lawrence street. Let every one go and pack Campbell. Washington, D. C.—Already there are numerous evidences that the recent conference of Colored Editors and leaders held in this city in June, which was called by Emmett J. Scott Special Assistant to the Secretary of War, at the suggestion of the War Department and the Committee on Public Information, to consider the relations of the 12,000,000 Negroes in this country with the general government itself, and to discuss ways and means how each might cooperate most effectively in the work of winning the present world wide war, is bearing fruit. Three results of the most significant character have been worked out within the past fornight that fully justify the holding of the conference and other issues not less far reaching are well on their way toward a satisfactory conclusion. The first in importance and human interest of the helpful results that may be said to have grown directly out of the recent conference of editors, and the cooperation of Negro leaders and friends of of the Negro people, is the frank, positive and unequivocal declaration of the President of the United States against the mob spirit, which has been to sent to the four corners of the earth by cable and through the newspapers of this country.

Encourage and boost them. THE DUBOIS MATTER. We have been an ardent admirer of W. E. Dubois for his manly qualities and his punch of intellectualities in literary effort. We are still as ardent an admirer. We cannot bring our minds to the point that any man like him would, after years of struggle, contumely from the higher-ups, the equals and the lower-downs, ingratitude from friends, and designed misunderstanding of his purposes, alms and objects by others as well as petty jealousies by a few, sell out the race or sacrifice his manhood for a petty job in the government. We do not agree with our contemporaries even in their biting criticism of this truly great man who has fought his unpopular way to the top. Suppose the article in the Crisis was all that they could make out of it. why associate his appointment, his article and the selling out of the race? Would you be willing, after a life of struggle to the top to be judged by one single act? We will let James Waters close for us. Wait a Minute. Folks. In what is perhaps one of the most notable novels ever written upon the world-old struggle between capital and labor, Robert Marr, the distinguished English novelist and propagandist, lays down the proposition that you may stake your very life in an effort to help the masses of the people, and they will turn upon you and tear you to pieces at the very moment when you have won the victory for them and hold it in your hands ready to deliver it. In looking for a case in point one would seem to find it in the torrent of vituperation and abuse which has been hurled against Dr. DuBols within the past few days, simply because word came that he had been considered for a commission in the intelligence department of the United States Army. We took no part in that abuse and do not intend to take any. We prefer to be calm, give the situation a careful examination, and with our mind open and unbiased, form our own judgment as to whether this man has done anything to justify his people at this juncture in turning violently against him. The mere fact that he is talked of for a commission in the army does not suffice to make us feel that he ought to be pulled down and stamped in the gutter. Of Dr. DuBois at close range we have seen little, but that little was enough for us. Others who have seen quite a good deal of him and been in position to form a pretty fair estimate of just what he is from a purely personal standpoint, have told us that AMPA 2962 et, Denver, Colorado in rate, all subscriptions must be paid. is sent to subscribers are lost or stolen, or when due, inform us by postal card date of the missing number.

We say in this order that you may see that we hold no special brief for Dr. Du Bois and are not actuated upon this occasion by any personal love for the man himself. We can, however, and we do cheerfully testify that from the first time we ever heard of Dr. Du Bois to the present moment we have admired and applauded him in his capacity of champion of the rights, privileges and immunities of his people. From the time we first heard of him down to the present hour, whether on the rostrum or in the columns of the press, he has been a veritable young Lochinvar whose steed in all the wide border was positively the best. Not only he merited the confidence and applause of his own people, but by the sheer force of his own ability he has compelled the bitterest foes of the Negro race to meet him half way and he has wrung from them affirmative recognition of himself as a foeman worthy of his steel. Dr. DuBois has spent practically his whole lifetime entrenched upon the firing line fighting for the Negro race; and we think you had better go slow, folks, before you damn a man like that.

City Officials, When Notified, Act At Once. No sooner had the Star reached its readers Saturday morning, and the subscribers read about the attempted Jim Crowism at the City Park, than our local N. A. A. C. P. got real busy. There was some delay as the president was in Colorado Springs organizing another local there. However Monday found him on the job with the result that City Attorney James Marsh and Mayor Mills immediately had the signs removed. Some misunderstanding had been had by some of our colored men and women about putting up the signs "For Colored" and about a test case to be made, etc. We are gathering more facts and will inform you later. The officials tell an interesting story of the doings of some of our Colored race patriots. Will you kindly note the difference in a newspaper that always "hollers" about its loyalty to race but will never take up a fight against anyone of the white race who makes the insult, especially when it might mean a few dollars sacrifice to uphold the race standard as against manhood. The Star is the newspaper to openly fight "Jim Crowism." Put a pIn in that. Others may "holler," but the Star For the first time in our lives, was it that we saw Dearfield Settlement; also the townsite, standing upon a hill high above all else is the Jackson hotel, which beckons you onward with extended arms. This hotel is in the townsite and is a valuable adjunct to the townsite. The blacksmith shop also gives a valuable appearance to the looks of things. But what we wanted to see, know and learn about was the settlement. Leaving the Lincoln Highway opposite Master's, at the residence of the wealthy ranchers, we turn into a big gate upon which has the inscription "Dearfield." Here you encounter heavy sandy roads, mosquitoes and gates of adjoining settlers' fences. To the south the old Page ranch, now owned by L. H. Lightner and C. M. White, with its two lakes, looks fine; then comes Robinson's—Ford place, where the first evidence of real farming is seen. A little to the north is the extended ranch of O. T. Jackson, covering many miles in extent. When you proceed farther and reach Hazell-North place, you are nearly in the center of the settlement. From here you can see Danfort's lovely farm, McKeether's growing crops, Chapelton postoffice store and J. J. Houston's ranch, crop and stock. By the way, did you know that J. J. Houston surprised the colony by going to Cheyenne and capturing Mrs. Page, who now is the pleasing postmistress and saleslady of the Chapelton? The appearance of Mrs. Houston already has things change. Roy Smith, whose mother, Mrs. Florence Smith, lives in Denver, is the clerk and de- --- --- livery boy. Mrs. Fletcher conducts a dairy and sells cream in Denver. She is an energetic, progressive widow, a sister to Jonas Cooper, who has acquired nine cows and six head of horses and mules. Chapelton is proud of her. This issue would end incomplete without the mention of the "Beu Brummel" of Chapelton, Mr. George North, the smiling "Brownskin admirer." Some boy!

PORO CLUB ENTERTAINMENT On Wednesday afternoon July 17, between the hours of 5 and 8, the beautiful home of Mine Lexie A. Brooks, 2220 Ogden St., the Poro Club was hostess to the following ladies of The National Association of Colorado Women's Clubs and visitors; Miss Mitte Foulks, head of the shipping department of Poro College, St. Louis, Mo.; Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, president of National Federation, Buffalo, N. Y.; Dr. Mary F. Waring, a trustee of the Douglass Home, Chicago; Mrs. Gertie N. Ross, president of the Colorado State Federation; Mrs. R. E. L. Bailey, chairman of the executive board of the Missouri State Federation, and Mrs. De Marge De Weese, chairman of program committee of Searchlight Club of Cheveneau, Wyo. After spending the eveing pleasantly a very wholesome five-course chicken dinner was served. Miss Dimple Gatewood preceded at the piano throughout the evening and victoria selections were interspersed. Mrs. Jennie Bradshaw is president, Mrs. Sadie R. Greene, secretary, and Mine Lexie A. Brooks treasurer. The Poro Clubs throughout the West are looking forward with much pride to the expected visit of Mrs. A. M. Pope Tumbo Malone, the sole maker of Poro, whom they hope will be able to come to them in the near future. They are overcrowded with work and are making Poro agents as rapidly as they can. Mrs. F. C. Howard and Mrs. Clara Banks, Poro agents, have returned to their respective homes in Pueblo and Colorado Springs after a pleasant visit in the city. Miss Nettie Foulks has returned to her work at Poro College after a pleasant and helpful stay with the Poro agents here. Mrs. Peari L. Sams has returned to St. Louis after a very recreative fort nightly stay here. PORO COLLEGE A few of the many achievements of the proprietress, Mrs. Annie M. Pope Tumbo Malone, by Miss Mittle Foulks of Hinols and Missouri, head of the shipping department of the institution located at St. Louis, Mo., who was introduced to the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs in session July 8 to 13th, among other things said: Madam President, Ladies of the North, South, East and West, like Mrs. C. H. Brown I feel assured that I must have brought the Lord along with me or I could never have gotten to Denver, much less into this splendid convention. I have been more than enthused by seeing this great array of talent and culture, second to none anywhere, in this great land of ours and these addresses, these most excellent programs and the achievements of these heroic women will furnish physical, mental and moral food for generations unborn, and I could no longer sit idle and let all of this history be made without at least a mention of one of the most modest, unselfish and one of the greatest bene factors of this age.

Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature.—John Stuart Mills. Never think of yourself as the victim of circumstances. To do so is to make yourself the victim of every adversity that you may encounter. Know that you have the power to change and control circumstances. Exercise that power and soon things will begin to change for the better.—Efficiency. "No other race, black or white, when bound as they were to the rack, so seldom stooped to grieving. No other race when free again forgot the past and proved them men so noble in forgiving." From the landing of Christopher Columbus to the Altruistic President, Woodrow Wilson, no Negro has been tried for treason or punished for disloyalty. What a sublime record! We are today a race of Abou Ben Adhems, in constant loyal service to our brother in white, even if ingratitude be our recompense and broken promises our reward. It is a grand thing to live in Colorado among her snow-capped peaks, to open the eyes in the morning in her cool, refreshing and invigorating atmosphere and look out upon the world, to drink in deeply nature's rarest gems and then enjoy the sweet sunshine, to feel the pulse bound and being thrill with the consciousness of strength and power in every nerve: it is a good thing simply to be alive in Colorado and it is a good world to live in, in spite of the abuse we are fond of giving it.

To have lost two husbands and married a third during the war has been the experience of Lady Michael Wardell, one of London's recent brides. She is a daughter of Sir Daniel Cooper, an Australian millionaire. She married first the late Viscount Northland, who lost his life in active service in 1915, and left a will in which he expressed the hope that his widow would marry again. She fulfilled his hope when she was married to Capt. Geoffrey Mills, who was killed a year ago. Her third husband is also a British officer. WAR HELPED ZINC INDUSTRY Remarkable Impetus Given to the Mining and Refining of the Mineral in Japan. The high-water mark in the development of zinc mining and refining in Japan has been reached since the outbreak of the present war. Zinc was first mined in a commercial way in 1897, but even as late at 1911 the output was still only about 10,000 tons. The refining of the ores was not started on a large scale until 1914. The rising quotations of the metal in all markets gave the industry great impetus in Japan, so that in 1915 21,000 tons of refined goods and in 1916 45,000 tons were produced. It is estimated that the production in 1917 totaled some 65,000 tons. It is said that the refineries can produce as high as 100,000 tons a year, but as this takes some 250,000 tons of zinc ore the problem before Japan is to obtain 200,000 tons of ore in foreign markets, as only 50,000 tons are mined in Japan. In the past Japan has bought ore from China, Australia and Russia, the greater part of the ore, however, coming from Australia. It has been reported that Great Britain plans a refinery in Australia in order to produce zinc in that portion of her empire. If true, this, it is said, may force Japan to seek her raw material in some other market. Not for Me, but of Me. Moses Sellg has been in business for a long time but never until recently he received a purely business letter from a small granddaughter. The letter was sent by his granddaughter, Evelyn Hahn, who formerly lived in Indianapolis, and was as follows: "Dearest Grandpa: This is a business note. . . .

Nevertheless, the typical American Is almost invari- ably pictured ina soft hat, and the soft felts worn by the soldiers of the American expeditionary forces to France helped to sustain the tradition. In the Civil war the soldiers of the North wore cups. Soft felts were chosen for soldiers operating ugainst the Indians on the plains because they were supposed to afford greater protec- tion than caps from the glare, They be- came a regulation head covering for the army In the Spanish-American war, and, because they matched the khaki uniform, they have been In use ever since. Now, however, General Per- shing Is snid to have decidedghat these hats must be discarded In favor of brimless and peakless caps, and the reason for the proposed change is characteristic of the period that has Introduced into war so many Innove- tions. The rim of the soft felt hat throws a shadow on the periscope used In the trenches so’ as to Interfere with sighting by the wearer; also, when worn by tall men, the crown may be seen above the parapets by the en- my; also, 2 gas mask can be adjusted much more quickly over a brimless and peakless cap.

An American aviator, forced to land within the German lines and taken prisoner, returned a few days after- ward to American headquarters, sate ani round, in his own, machine, ‘The commandigg German officer in- formed him they Were after certatri Information and had decided to send him up tn his own machine ‘accompa- Hed by a German officer, who would shoot him if he deviated from orders.

I looped éhe loop.” HERE’S ANOTHER FROG STORY New Yorker's Experience Seems to Corroborate Tale Told by the Kaiser’s Press Agent. ‘This is the time of the year when fish stories are permissible, so the kal- ser’s press ngent cannot be blamed for pulling that one about the frogs croak- ing in such deafening fashion that they enabled the Germans to bring up thelr batteries without being dixcoy- ered by the allies. Hank Newman, who Invented the famous “snapper” elixir, partly bears out the statement made by the Hun war correspondent. He knows all the habits of the Johnny Crapauds and he declares that they can make some noise when they begin to croak. “I don't know anything about those bloodthirsty frogs of the Chemin des Dames, however,” explained Mr. Newman. “But down in Ozone Park. where I live, there is a frog pond, and hundreds of them live a qulet, peace ful life. In fact, the frogs down my way are musical, for they lull the na- tive to sleep. There is one big fellow, however, who has a high pitched volce. I named him Caruso because he war- bles louder than any In the flock. For some time Caruso and me were quite chummy. As soon as he heard my alarm clock go off at five In the morn- Ing, he wonld come to my window and sing 1 roundelay, which indicated that he was hungry. That was when I had daylight work. Now I'm on nights and don't get to bed until three in the morning.

JUST SIMPLE COMMON SENSE Really Nothing to Be Alarmed About When Speaker Uses Pretentious Word “Psychology.” One way to get an andience nowr- days is to call the subject of one’s talle “Psychology.” A Harvard pro- fessor recently amazed a convention of clothing manufacturers and deal- ers by delivering an address upon this topic. in which he Iaid down several principles about the effect of clothing upon the wearer, and the surprise of his hearers was due to the discovery that what the learned man had digni- fled by a long word was nothing more than what more commonly passes for common sense. A good many of the things he sald were already known to them. if they had stopped to think. When he placed them under the head of psychology they sat up and took notice. says The Oregoninn. He said, for example, that the well- rexsed man Is 10 per cent more eff cient than the poorly dressed man. He eatd.that clothes that do not fit pre- xent the wearer from doing his best. Cleantiness promotes self-respect. Self- respect Ix contagions, like confidence. The man who does not think well of himeelf Is unlikely to win the good opinion of others. Comfortable cloth- Ing, made of good material. well brush- ed, was the foundation of the super- structure, he sald. He wns talking to hard headed bnsiness men. and ther helleved him, because thelr own expe- rience showed his statemeny to be true.

An Investigation of pyrite, an essen- tinl material in the manufacture of high explosives, is being made in the coal fields of Iowa under the direction of Dean George F. Kay of the Uni- versity of Iowa, who Is director of the Town geological survey. High explo- sives are made with the aid af sul- phuric acid, which in turn fx made chiefly by roasting pyrite, popularly known as “fool's gold.” Hence the mineral is in great demand. For many years pyrite for acid pro- duction has been imported from Spain, states Docfor Kay. But in order to save the ships for more urgent uses, the shipping board has sharply reduced the Import of pyrite. ‘The domestic produc- tion of the mineral must then be un- usually large, he declares. New York, Virginia, Georgia, South Carolina and Alabama have pyrite mines, and Miinols and several other states are producing a small tonnage from coal mines. Many hundred thou- sand tons are quickly available from coal mines, says the state geologist, If the government's explosive program re- quires it. ‘The method of preparing coal pyrite for shipment to acid plants Is simple and cheap. The “sutphur balls” must be separated from adhering coal, and be crushed, washed and screened Into lump and fine sizes. Coal miners are willing to load pyrite, and the opera- tors te holst and ship it, if war Indus- tries demand it. 5 MEMORY THAT WILL LAST es Gratitude to America Is Deeply Engraved on the Hearts of Her People. Kathleen Norris, writing in the Woman's Home Companion, gives an imaginary conversation with a young French girl> describing the coming of the American soldiers to France as she is supposed to remember it: “‘And men—to stand beside our men—from America!

And that night, as you know, we had their officers at the chateau, and one of them told me he also had a daughter, not much younger than I, and that her name was Vir- ginie— | “I don't know why — for, God knows, there were hard times, and dark times, ahead.

Many May go Overseas. Washington, D. C., July 22, 1918. The War Department authorizes the following statement from Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War: Orders were issued today by the War Department to the office of the Surgeon General, which will enable colored nurses who have been registered by the American Red Cross Society, to render service for their own race in the Army. Colored nurses will be assigned to the base hospitals now established at Camp Funston, Fort Ritley, Kansas; Camp Grant, Rockford, Illinois; Camp Dodge, Des Moines, Iowa; Camp Taylor, Louisville, Ky.; Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, Ohio and Camp Div, Wrightstown, N. J. At these camps a total of about 38,000 colored troops are stationed. General Pershing has been asked by cable whether the services of colored nurses can be utilized to advantage among the American Expeditionary Forces. To the Public: --- Y. W. C. A. NOTES.

A. felt proud of the privilege of being in and a aprt of the great citizens patriotic meeting last Sunday afternoon which met in Zion Baptist Church to do honor to the young men who have been called to the colors. In obedience to the call the membership turned out almost to a man and marched in the great parade to the church, thus demonstrating the fact that they can "put a thing over" when they take a notion. Croquet is all the rage at the "Y just now. Seldom does an evening pass which does not witness a large number of players on the court engaging the exciting sport. The court is laid off and the game played absolutely according to the latest rules. Plans are now on foot for a regular tournament which may extend over quite a period of time. Secretary Bell was again selected by the War Work Council of the Y. M. C. A. as a special escort for the drafted men who left for Camp Lewis yesterday afternoon. On account of the great distance and the excessive railroad rates now prevailing the secretary will accompany the men only a part of the way, perhaps through the state of Wyoming, and will then return to Denver. Through some error on the part of the program committee there will be no program at the "Y" tomorrow afternoon. On Sunday the 11th, however, Secretary Bell will speak on "Seeing the Soldier Boys Off-How They Started and How I Left Them." Full arrangements for the meeting will be announced through the NOTES of next week.

Roberson was a grand success. Wasatch Lodge of Elks has got seven bills protecting the flag. Learn to Do Without One of the arts of life is to learn how to do without. Few of us have everything we consider desirable and if we grumble at every little deprivation we make ourselves miserable and our associates uncomfortable. To learn to do without and yet be cheery and happy, goes far toward making life a success. UTAH NEWS. SUGAR SHORTAGE IS BROUGHT TO AMERICA BY CHANCES OF WAR SUGAR SHORTAGE IS BROUGHT TO AMERICA BY CHANCES OF WAR Since the pinch of the sugar shortage pressed in upon the sweets-loving American populace, every one who has had a part of his regular sugar rations cut down has asked, either himself or some one else "Why!" In the past France, Italy and the Low countries raised their own sugar. England received over one-half of her supply from the Teutonic Empires, imported largely from Java. One-half of America's sugar supply is obtained from Cuba, one-seventh from the sugar beet production of the United States, one-eighth from Hawaii, one-twentieth from Louisiana, and the rest from Porto Rico, and the Philippines. Because of the destruction of the greater part of their factories, the production of both Italy and France has been cut down to one-third. The Central Powers—their regular source of supply—has been cut off. They must, therefore, depend almost entirely upon America. There is vast quantities of sugar stored in Java, but neither time nor ships can be spared while sugar can be obtained elsewhere by one-third the haul. Why Save? Why are Americans urged to save sugar? They must meet the Allied shortage; they must release ships formerly used in the sugar trade to carry soldiers and supplies to Europe; they must make up the loss of beet sugar lands and factories captured or destroyed by the Germans in Northern France and Italy. Ships which would have kept up the flow of sugar have been sunk. Twenty-six thousand tons of sugar were lost recently in submarine raids upon America's Atlantic coast. Fifty thousand tons of sugar carrying shipping were transferred to meet the requirements of Belgian relief. Glvil War Price In spite of the shortage, sugar is selling all over the United States at 8½ cents to 10 cents a pound. During the Civil War, when no shortage threatened, sugar sold for 35 cents a pound owing to speculation which was rampant and which, in this war, has been checked by the United States Food Administration regulations. Therefore Americans are asked to save sugar because others need it; not to hoard it because hoarding is selfish, cowardly and unpatriotic and because the Food Control act provides fines of not more than $5,000 and imprisonment for hoarders. COLORADOANS ARE ASKED TO SAVE SUGAR SO THAT: The people of England may have two pounds per person per month;; The people of France 1½ pounds per person per month; The people of Italy one pound per person per month. These amounts are not guaranteed by the allied governments to their people, but they are the maximum amounts that will be furnished if supplies can be obtained. LESS SUGAR IS ALLOTTED STATE FOR NEW MONTH Skulking submarines, a great merchant fleet transformed into a gigantic ocean bridge over which America's khaki clad army has marched into the battlefield of Europe, have combined to put the people of the United States once more to the test. This time the nation faces a shortage of sugar. This time, instead of the national passion for flakey white wheat bread and fluffy cakes the national sweet tooth has to be combated and educated and made to sacrifice its share to the Altar of Liberty. New allotment of sugar to consumers, according to recent dispatches from Washington., will be two pounds per person per month, instead of three pounds as formerly allowed. Colorado's entire sugar allotment for July was 4,482,000 pounds. In August the state will be allowed only 2,298,000 pounds of sugar which is a decrease of 1,484,000 pounds for this state alone. According to present calculations, housewives will be able to obtain canning sugar up to a limited extent depending entirely upon the supply. Food Administration officials urge all housewives, to use discretion in their canning and avoid canning heavy jams and preserves which take much more sugar than the canned whole fruits. Officials also urge that wherever possible fruits and vegetables be dried instead of canned as this process takes no sugar whatever. Never forget that the sugar situation is serious and every Coloradoan should bend every effort to the saving of sugar. DENVER FIRMS CLOSED FOR FOOD VIOLATIONS For violation of the milling regulations, the Keystone Milling and Warehouse Company, and J. D. Best and Company were ordered, by the United States Food Administration for Colorado, to suspend operation from July 23 to August 1, and were allowed to contribute $200 each to the American Red Cross. Both companies were found guilty of dealing with other wholesalers and thereby creating a double profit, and of selling mill feeds and flour on a greater margin of profit than is allowed by the government.

New York --- Denver, Colorado ROOT BEER DEALER BREAKS SUGAR RULE ROOT BEER DEALER BREAKS SUGAR RULE For refusing to declare the stock of sugar he had on hand on July 1, and for making a later report which covered only half of his supply, Charles Gordon, of 1122 Seventeenth street, Denver, has been ordered to close his root beer establishment for thirty days by J. N. Bundick, chairman of the Sugar Division, and Thomas B. Stearns, head of the United" States Food Administration. Gordon was given a hearing before food officials who not only ordered him to suspend business for thirty days, but also confiscated 800 pounds of sugar he had hidden away in an unused cask. The confiscated sugar will be sold by the food administration and the money obtained from the sale will be turned over to the Denver chapter of American Red Cross. The proceeds, in this case, will amount to about $70.00. The soft drink brewer admitted his guilt, and the only excuse he offered was that he was saving the sugar "for a rainy day." NEW BEEF RULES MEET APPROVAL "The new meat regulations are not only the most successful ones we have had up to the present time, but hotel and restaurant men of the state seem to find them very satisfactory," declared E. E. Lucas, head of the hotel and restaurant division of the U. S. Food Administration. Though the new regulations have been in effect less than two weeks, it is estimated that practically all of the public eating places in Colorado have designated to the hotel division their choice of mid-day or evening meal. The prohibition of service of beef does not extend to beef by-products, such as sweetbreads, brains, tongue, liver, heart, and so forth. Neither is it a violation to serve mutton, veal or pork at any meal any day. The definite amount of meat saved under the new regime will not be determined until after August 1, when the July consumption for 1918 will be compared with that of July, 1917. NEW SUGAR RESTRICTIONS IN ENGLAND Radical restrictions in the use of sugar during the year beginning June 1, 1918, have been announced by the British Ministry of Food, with respect to manufacturers other than the makers of jam, condensed milk and beer. The total quantity of sugar which may be used during the whole year ending May 31, 1919, is 25 per cent of the quantity used by these manufacturers in 1915. The order applies to manufacturers of sugar confectionery and chocolate, pastries, biscuits, candied peel and preserved and crystallised fruits, drugs and medicinal preparations, mineral waters, other beverages (except beer and stout), or any other product requiring sugar. ITALIAN FOOD SITUATION GRAVE. The food situation in Italy continues to be very grave. The shortage most conspicuous at present is that of meat. In order to cope with this shortage there have been in effect since May 15 three meatless days a week, and on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of each week meat can neither be served in public eating places nor bought for home consumption. The price of meat rose tremendously the past spring, and beef is now ranging from 72 to 89 cents per pound, with veal 79 to 79 cents a pound. Proverba Circulate Proverbs undoubtedly have a tendency to travel. They are carried from one land to another by emigrants, tourists, missionaries, tradesmen and seamen; but many which are closely similar doubtless owe their origin to no common stock, but to the common experience of mankind. Origin of One Proverb One obtains historical glimpses in proverbs. The familiar "robbing Peter to pay Paul" is said to derive its origin from the fact that in the reign of Edward VI the lands of St. Peter at Westminster were appropriated to raise money, for the repair of St. Paul's. Original Source Examiner—"You are quite sure that this is a purely original composition you have handed in? I must say the wording sounds strangely familiar." Plagiarist—"Possibly you have run across some of the words in the dictionary."—Judge. European Rec Superstition A prevalent superstition in parts of Europe is that bees will either fly away or die on the occasion of a death in the family unless someone knocks at their hive and tells them about it. Just a Business Deal Dorothy said to her mother: "I went three errands yesterday, and you promised me two cents, but if you haven't any change today we'll settle it for one cent." AKE PHOTOGRAPHS AT NIGHT Handicaps of Fog and Darkness Have Been Overcome by Development of New Process. Neither fog nor darkness handicaps the superneys of the war department signal corps' cameras, according to Edward Hungerford, who describes the remarkable progress of wartime aerial photography in Everybody's. He gives some interesting examples: "I have seen a photograph of a waning moon over Rome—taken by the new process. It is the first real picture of the moon that I have ever seen, although I formerly attempted the thing myself. Most of the moonlight pictures that one sees are 'fakes,' made by photographing the sun in various unusual and artistic phases. But this was real. One could see the tiny pools of water standing in the uneven places of the flagging, the flickering street lamps at the corner. A picture whose reality almost makes it uncanny. And the photographer who took the picture in the rain was arrested by a gendarme as being mentally unsound. He was only released when he took a picture of the lieutenant at the police station and proved beyond a question that he could make good portraits by artificial light. "I have seen photographs made by this new process from the front row of a theater balcony during the progress of the play; others made in church during vespers and illumined entirely by the candles upon the high altar. The process is very new and it is very wonderful. Moreover, it is susceptible of adaptation to night observation, both from airplanes and upon the land." SPIRIT OF AMERICA TODAY Veteran's Pathetic Gift Showed That His Heart Still Beat High With Patriotic Fervor. An old man, thin and bent with the years of hardships plainly marking his wrinkled face, stood on a station platform at an Indiana town recently as a train bearing a party of young men registrants to Camp Taylor stopped. The old man wore a faded blue uniform, the badge of the Civil war. He had a message for the young men who were to be enrolled in Uncle Sam's great army, and soon he was surrounded by a group of young fellows. "I wasn't counting on getting to talk to so many of you boys," he told them tremulously. "I just came down to give something to one of Uncle Sam's new soldiers." He drew a parcel from under his coat and opening it displayed a pair of almost perfectly knitted socks. "They ain't much for my country," he apologized, "but they will help some young fellow to fight better. These don't look like much for a soldier to give, but I knitte, them myself and I bought the yarn out of my pension money." A thin fellow got the socks because the old soldier thought he would need them most. The train pulled out and the little old soldier went back home to knit another pair of socks for another young soldier. Then the Eight Started. Then the Fight Started. Three men emerged from a Sixth avenue wet goods establishment last night. They were apparently the best of friends. One said: "Well, Doyle, I'm glad we are all Irish. But let me tell yer, the best men come from Limerick." Doyle said he didn't know about that. "I'm from Kerry—" And immediately a fight started. The third man declared he was from Kilkenny. "And no Kilkenny man stood by when there was any fighting to be done, begorra." And when the three were pulled apart by three cops they were a sight to behold. It was hard to tell from the appearance of the three which county in Ireland produced the best men.—New York Times. Margery Disapproved. Margery's mother took her to a cottage prayer meeting. The meeting was led by a returned missionary who believed strongly in the efficacy of prayer. And she believed in prayer not only from the heart but from the knees, as well. When Margery's father returned that night he began to question her regarding her experience. "I understand you went to your first prayer meeting today, daughter," he said. "How did you enjoy it?" The youngster's answer came in a flash. "I didn't like it at all, daddy, not at all," she said. "They didn't do a thing but just sing and turn over!" Shipbuilding in a Dry Dock. It has been proposed that concrete ships be built in a floating dry dock, the principal advantage being that the forms could be retained in the dock so they could be used immediately after launching, for another ship. The launching would be effected by withdrawing the outer forms slightly and sinking the dry dock until the ship floated on its own bottom. This would avoid severe launching strains, and would permit of launching the boat while the concrete was still "green." Hence there would be a reduction in the period of construction.—Scientific American. Before and After. My brother has just reached France. On being moved from one village to another he wished to thank the kind old Frenchwoman with whom he had been billeted and thought he was saying. "We thank you for your kindness to us while we were here." The girls standing near laughed so heartily that he repeated his sentence later to an interpreter and found "but he had said, "before we were here."—Exchange.

An aerial tank has been invented and put into practical use by Italian soldiers who have astounded the world by their extraordinary feats in mountain warfare. An Austrian machine gun emplacement was so situated on a mountain side that it poured a harassing fire into an Italian post. The Austrian position was unassailable by ordinary means, but it was necessary that it be wiped out. A "Teleferica" car, many of which are operated by the Italians across chasms and up mountain sides, was armored and equipped with machine guns. Volunteers were called for, and from the many who responded two were chosen to man the guns. This improvised aerial dreadnaught was then swung out across the valley. After one or two exploration trips at a dizzy height, the men in the car finally located the Austrian post and quickly put it out of action. Residence 2344 Tremont Pl. Olive 6R1 before 8 A. M GEORGE G. ROSS The following letter was written by the wife of a man fighting overseas to a member of the Salvage club, an official organization for preventing war waste: "Dear Sir: I called at your office on Wednesday at one o'clock, but was told you were engaged on salvage, and that I could not see you. I wanted to ask you about Bert's teeth what he lost at the front in the mud—do I still have to keep up the payments of them on the installment plan? I feel quite sure that your Salvage club what they talks about would have the matter put right if you would only mention it. Yourrespectfully——."—London Tit-Bits. 929 Seventeenth St. Main 6782 Denver, Colo REAL JOB, THAT OF THE "UMP" Man Who Holds Indicator in Professional Ball Game Surely Has No "Soft Snap." Speed Indicators. A useful instrument, especially in clouds, is the air speed indicator. This tells the pilot his speed through the air. It also helps him to know whether he is rising or descending. For instance, if the speed of the machine flying level is 100, miles an hour, any speed registered above that will show that the machine is coming down, and anything below it that the machine is climbing. The difference in speeds will show to what extent the craft is descending or climbing. There is also a proper fore-and-aft level to indicate climb and descend, but for various technical reasons the pilot usually depends on the air speed indicator. There are those who will scott at the idea that umpiring a ball game is work, but let these, just once, stand out in the broiling sun of July or August and judge a two-hour game, while watched intently every moment by two keen-eyed managers, thirty or forty players, as familiar with the rules as the indicator holders, and several thousand excited, restless and shouting spectators, every one of whom is anxious to detect some slip in judgment upon the part of the man in blue. Let them labor for that length of time without encouragement, but with shouts of disapproval ringing in their ears at frequent intervals, or have several players step on their toes with their spiked shoes, while making threats and referring in slighting terms to every one connected with them from their remotest ancestry down to the present period, and they will be ready not only to admit but to make amidavit that the umpire actually works—Leslie's Magazine. Jerusalem Enloys "Movies." The moving picture has acquired a sudden and enormous popularity in Jerusalem, particularly among the native population, according to letters from soldiers there. It is impossible to accommodate the crowds that try to attend the theater. People almost fought to get into a big theater when the film depicting the occupation of Beersheba was shown. ```markdown ``` --- Salvage. Attorney and Counsellor At Law FOR THE HAIR LONG.
