A Progressive Race INDIANA NEGROES ARE ON FIRING LINE IN FRANCE Camp Grant, Ill.—In many an Indiana colored family interest will be aroused by the announcement that the Ninety second Division is now on the fighting line in Alsace. The Indian colored boys in this division trained at Camp Grant with the Three Hundred and Sixty-fifth Infantry and other units of the One Hundred and Eighty-third Brigade, which left for over seas on Memorial day. This division has been in France for several months, and it has just been offically announced that the colored troops are holding a sector of the lines in the Vosges Mountains, where the Fritzies are in great fear of the Negroes, who the Germans believe, immediately cut off the ears of all the captives. COLORED SOLDIER CAPTURES HUN MAJOR SINGLE-HANDED Paris- In the neighborhood of Chateau Thierry Dr. C. C. Burlinsam, assistant chief surgeon of the American Red Cross, saw a Negro soldier marching proudly behind a German major. He had trans ferred his pack to the major's back and the majors monocle to his own eye. As he passed the surgeon the Negro called out: "Look yere, cap'n, whut dis yere Negro done got! Both sectors have unusually quiet since the Americans went into line. At St Mihiel there was an occasional rattling fire from German machine guns. From one or two points of vantage high on the hills German snipers frequently made life unpleasant for the men bringing up food thru our communication trenches, where upon we replied with a bit of sniping ourselves. In the Argonne several small patrol scraps have occured and the German has used his minen werfers quiet freely, particulatrly along our front from Vauquois Plateaue to Avoconty. But the livilest artillery fire has come from French batteries supporting our line. From several of our observation post St Mihlel is so plain in view that our observers last Sunday watched the progress of a foot ball game between German teams in a vacant lot near the town. Over in the Argonne they have named one company composed largely of men from Ohio the "Lucky Birds," be cause of their curious escapes from German shells. For instant, there was the night the crap game was on. Then privates were rolling dice in a small room with their helmets hanging on pegs on the walls when a shell burst just outside the door. Fragments flew through the wall, Keenly pierced several helmets and raised cam generally. Not a Negro was hit.

DENVER, COLORADO SATURDAY September 28, 1918 TO SALVAGE ARMY CAST-OFFS Southwestern Conference at Denver Next Week Will Extend Campaign to Provide tor Thousands of Men Rejected or Discharged as Victims of Tuberculosis. New York Sept. 25. How to solve the problem presented by the thousands of men rejected by draft boards or camp, or discharged from the army on account of tuberculosis, will be the chief question taken up at the Southwestern Tuberculosis Conference to be held in Denver, Colo., Oct. 4 and 5, according to announcement made today at New York by the National Tuberculosis Association, under whose auspices the conference will be held. The seven states of Arizona, California, Colorado, New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas will be represented at this gathering, at which army officers, federal, state and local officials, and tuberculosis and Red Cross workers will lay out the concrete measures needed to restore these rejected and discharged men to health, self support and usefulness.

Word to this effect reached Baltimore in a letter sent by Chief Gunner Rufus Pinckney, who tells of the daring feat of Sergeant Terry that won him the honor. According to Pinkney, Sergeant Terry, with several other members of his company, weat over the top while under a heavy barrage fire from the enemy, reaching all objectives. --- NEGRO UNIT IN FIGHTING WITH FRENCH NEAR VERDUN WINS HIGH PRAISE WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY AT THE FRONT—IF Emperor William in recent weeks has been on his historic observation post at Montfaucon, where he saw the fighting be fore Verdun in 1916, he would have seen American Negro soldiers holding a portion of the trenches in the Forests de Hesse. The units had been a part of six different French divisions since landing in France and has always been progressing toward the hotter spots in the line until now it is believed to be ready for the supreme test of a real fight equal to those in which the light-skinned Americans have written pages of valor. They have already shown that they are able to withstand big shells bursting on all sides—an ordeal which in the first year of the war shook the nerves of earliest Negro units put into the front lines. "I have as much confidence in the Negro soldier as in any other body of troops with the the same amount of fighting experience," says the colonel, a seasoned regular army officer, who is the only white man in the command. "All we want is a chance to get at the boches," declare the men, pronouncing the word "bushes." The story of how Corporal Isaac Valley, of Gerald, Kans., won the distinguish service cross is an inspiration to every man in the unit. Valley is one of the few colored soldiers who thus far have won that honor. He served three years in the 24th Infantry be fore he was transferred to this regiment. A private in attempting to throw a grenade dropped it in the trench in the midst of his comrade Valley had no time to pick it up and throw it out. He, therefore, put his foot on it and shoved it into the mud. The grenade exploded and tore off part of his foot. His only comment as he was carried back was, "I saved the others even if it did get me." When General Pershing heard of the incident he awarded the ribbon which is the ambition of every fighting man to possess. "That man will be back in a few days." said the colonel to me one day. One night a big German raiding party came over and penetrated behind the first lines of this unit before the Americans opened up and, without the loss of a single man, drove them back. The Negro soldiers are not only anxious for real fighting but many of them have high ideals of their duty. "We are here," said Sergt. Greenleaf Johnson, of the colored Y. M. C. A. in Washington, D. C. "not because we think the Negroes of the Unit- FIVE CENTS A COPY. FACTORY EMPLOYS MANY COLORED GIRLS Baltimore, Md.—The P. Lorslard Company, successor to the Consolidated Cigarette Company, a concern with $66, 000,000 capital and branches in the large cities of the country, established a branch in this city two months ago. The local factory, which makes a brand of little cigars is located at 716 German street in a large three-story building. One hundred and sixteen colored girls are employed. Mr. Williams said that his company was pleased with the way the girls had taken hold of the work up to this time, but that he expected even better results as they grew more experienced. All of the employees, he said, received a flat salary of $8 per week. As soon as they caught on sufficiently, they are to be placed on piece work where they can earn $12, $15 and even $18 depending on the number of cigars they can turn out. ed States ought to be represented, but because we are American citizens and it is our duty to help our country in the war. We believe in taking a part, even if it be small, in the great contest to make the world better morally, socially and economically. We realize that any thing which helps our country helps the world and makes life better for humanity." Sergt. Johnson also described the bravery of Capt. Sylvester Epps, a Spanish war veteran and for many years chief messengers for successive war secretaries in Washington. He was in charge of the men who repelled a raid the Germans made on the lines in the Vauquois forest. Capt. Arthur Davis, a clerk in the Washington post office, also took part in the same fight, in which the enemy lost 100 men in killed and wounded and fifty prisoners. Privates Frank F. Moore, of Pittsburg, and William Curtiss Washington, of Meriden, Con., were jarred by same grenade which was stamped into the ground by another colored soldier and won for him the distinguish service cross. Corp, Robert S. Ellington, of 3149 Dearborn street, Chicago, has returned to his unit after receiving a stray bullet in his leg while directing rifle practice on a field within range of enemy snipers. Private Andrew Mills, of Richmond, Va., is convinced that colored men are just as visible at night as their white fellow soldiers. He shows a dent in his steel helmet made by the bullet of a German sniper when he peeped over the parapet of the trench on a bright moonlight night. FLOUR SAVED SUGAR SAVED FOOD PRODUCED FROM THE POLLS AT HOME U.S.A. A GAR WILLIAMS. Food savings of millions of Americans during our first year of war enabled this government to send enormous food shipments abroad for our fighting forces and the Allied nations. Our savings in cereals—out of a short crop—amounted to 154,900,000 bushels; all of which was shipped to Europe. We increased our meat and fat shipments 844,600,000 pounds. This was America's "box from home" to our army abroad and the civilians and military forces of the Allied nations. Gas! Five seconds after the alarm rocket has gone up an entire sector will be prepared to laugh at the Hun- poison sweeping toward them. One $50 Liberty Bond will buy four of the life-saving masks for our boys in the trenches. One $1,000 and five $50 bonds will supply a whole platoon.

They are wearing their masks at the "alert" in the trenches these days, for Fritz is resorting frequently to gas. In the old days it often meant an impending attack, but the Yanks have changed the old order around a bit, and now they attack the Boches through their own poison, thanks to our masks. The gas alarm is given with gongs or rockets, and it is but a matter of seconds to grasp the mask which hangs on the chest and transform a cheerful American doughboy into the Drawn by Gaar Williams, Division of Pictorial Publicity.

It burns and sears the tender flesh of the throat and lungs. A gassed man writhes in torment, and his fellows can do nothing for him.

Last week at Brighton, at Cheyenne Wells, at Walsenburg and other towns where county fairs were held, Miss George held the crowds fascinated by her "chalk talks" on food saving. Any county fair may obtain her services by communicating with Miss Anne Evans, chairman of the home conservation division, U. S. Food Administration, 614 Interstate Trust Building, Denver. COLORADO DESERVES PRAISE MAXIMUM OF CROPS MOVED WITH MINIMUM OF LOSS COLORADO DESERVES PRAISE MAXIMUM OF CROPS MOVED WITH MINIMUM OF LOSS Colorado food producers, Colorado railroads, and the Colorado Food Administration's transportation division are today reaping jointly a great harvest of congratulations. Fruit, grain, vegetables and live stock have flowed in an uninterrupted chain quickly and smoothly from the remotest ranches of the state into the markets. Here are the statements that A. V. Kipp, chairman of the transportation division of the Colorado Food Administration has given out regarding crops and live stock movements this year. "Western slope fruit growers today have more money in their pockets—net profit from marketed crops—than in many previous years. They have lost practically nothing thru car shortage and consequent fruit wastage. "Missouri river terminals and eastern elevators have had to place an embargo on receiving any more grain until they can take care of the trainloads that the West has dumped at their gates. "Refrigerator cars have been made available for the potato movement and all perishable vegetables sent quickly on their way to market." And Mr. Kipp announces that by October 1 every fat sheep, it is believed, will have been loaded aboard a car and on its way to market before a single animal is lost thru inclement weather in the mountain districts. BEAN GROWERS MUST MARKET OWN CROPS The Colorado Food Administration is NOT going to purchase the bean crop of the state this year as last; neither can it guarantee a price on the pinto bean. This is the statement of O. H. Liebers, chairman of the bean division of the Colorado Food Administration. "It therefore behooves shippers and growers of beans to prepare now to market their own crops," said Mr. Liebers. "The Food Administration bean division, in its new office at 303 Interstate Trust building, is ready to do its utmost to help the grower get a fair price, the shipper a fair profit, and to see to it that the crop is conserved to the last pound.

Who, having two coats, will give one to keep warmth in another's freezing body? The United States Food Administration wants every person who answers "I" to these humanitarian questions to go into his closet, take out every warm and durable garment, every pair of sturdy shoes, and every bit of linen and cotton that he or she can spare, and during Belgian relief week—beginning September 23 and ending September 30—give these garments to the nearest American Red Cross branch or chapter for ultimate distribution among the suffering population of Belgium. The Colorado Food Administration's particular job is the conservation of food. But from today until the last ton of the five thousand tons of clothing needed by the ten million of our allies imprisoned by the Huns in Belgium and northern France has been shipped, the Food Administration is going to put its strength as well behind the "drive" for clothing. It takes more than food to conserve human life when winter winds sweep the earth. And the Food Administration will fall in its ultimate aim to conserve human life if sufficient clothing as well as food does not reach the impoverished Belgian and French populations before winter. Their plight is desperate. The Germans have requisitioned every article of clothing, every yard of woolens, linens, cotton, and all curtains, blankets and carpets in all shops in Belgium. To the martyrs of Belgium are left the shame of nakedness and the menace of disease and death if clothing is not sent them from your closets this month. Already exposure has increased the deaths from tuberculosis in Belgium 100 per cent and cases of the disease 1,000 per cent. Herbert Hoover has a new message for the United States and Colorado today. As head of the United States Food Administration he still says: "Save food and strafe the Huns." But he also urges earnestly, "GIVE clothes and save the Belgians." USED TO IT. West—Wonderful!

"What's become of that old joke about the Dutch taking Holland?" "That is not a joke now. That hasn't been a joke since the Russians marched on Moscow." "Can you support my daughter in the style she's been accustomed to?" asked the father of the young man. "Well, I can take her to the movies, if that's what you mean." The world is made up of two classes of people: lifters and leaners. The lifters are builders, the trail blazers, the initiators, the strong, the never-die sort; the others are just simply the leaners. In a greater or less degree, every man and woman make up into one of these classes. In greater or less degree YOU are drifting one way or the other. Think for a moment: where do you stand? The world is turning over. It's hunting its power of place and men must make up its sphere. They must construct its bed. How inspiring is a lift! Have you ever stopped to consider that every time you lift, you grow—stronger? And every time you lean—ever so unconsciously—you grow weaker? The entire world must be made strong that it may lift up the weak. Your place is probably right where you are—until some compelling power calls and leads you to some other place. Work out your plan. But first get, or create a plan; for as you lead, others are bound to follow. Example is influence. Example is inspiration. And inspiration is achievement—pictured out. Lift, my friend, lift.

We have worked for it, we have suffered for it, we have fought for it; we have made its music, we have tinged its ideals, its poetry, its religion, its dreams; we have reached in this land our highest modern development and nothing, humanly speaking, can prevent us from eventually reaching here the full stature of our manhood. Our country is at war. The war is critithis is OUR COUNTRY, this is OUR WAR. We must fight it with every ounce of blood and treasure.—Crisis. 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. It is not only reward that treads on the heels of virtue. Mostly the virtue in itself is all the visible reward. To know that it is no defeat to stand for the right; to feel the victor's joy when one has stood up against the pressure or oppression for what he knows is the righteous thing to do. Even when the reward comes after a while in the substantial form of advancement, the joy of victory comes first and stands ahead of all the others always. There are more than 6,000,000 Africans among the 17,000,000 people in Brazil, and many of them the crudest type of Negro on the American hemisphere. Why has God seen fit to put 12 millions of Negroes in the U. S. and geographically divide us in such a manner? The Negro must close ranks and come in closer touch one with the other for commercial and other reasons. Cuba, Haiti and Santo Domingo bid us close ranks. He who thinks it is gentlemanly to resent every affront, doesn't get his idea of gentleness from the gospel.

The paper mills of the United States have been placed on the essential list and all newspapers must comply with several defined regulations just issued by the War Industries Board, in order to continue the publications. One of the most important refers to subscriptions. All subscriptions must be paid in advance and no papers are to be sent to persons who fail to comply with the rule. You must not get three months in arrears, if you do, your paper will be cut by order of the government. The publisher must make sworn statements of this fact. Pay up! Pay up! Bring or send your money into the office. Do not wait for the collector to call. We must obey the government or stop publishing the Star. This applies to everybody, see Government's order published in this issue. November 1st is our limit. Pay up! Collectors wanted.

It is a fine booklet with many pictures of inspiration. 6LOGAN—"STOP LYNCHING AND MOB VIOLENCE BY LAW." "No man who looks down on his fellowman is fit to govern him."—Moorfield Storey. They say that Christ was a man of peace. It was his vision that saw the crimson blood-red fields of today with the Moloch of Autocracy stalking forth in the scarlet uniform of hell, putting the death-rattle in the throats of countless thousands of men and women and innocent children. This causes the sword of Christ to leap from its scabbard and flash with the truth in its execution for the defense of a suffering humanity. In the final judgment it will be observed that the condemnation comes to those who did it not. Men are not condemned for murder, lying, thieving and adultery, but because they did not the plain duties of life. This includes not only the sinner, but the professing and non acting professor as well. Possession and not profession saves. Protest, my brother, and grumble. I have seen the Visun and it shall not fade. We want victory for ourselves,—dear God, how terribly we want it—but it must not be cheap bargaining, it must be clean and glorious, won by our manliness and not by the threat of the footpad. In the day of our lowest travail we did not murder children and rape women to bring our freedom nearer. We played the game and freedom came. So, too, today our souls are ours, but our bodies belong to our country. Patience, then, without compromise; silence without surrender; grim determination never to cease striving until we can vote, travel, learn, work and enjoy in peace—all this; and yet with it and above it all the tramp of our armies over the blood-stained illies of France to show the world again what the loyalty and bravery of black men means.—The Criefs.

Not soft hands and soft jobs, but downright service is the end of life. He who fears to offend takes the first step to please. Offense need not be taken simply because it is offered. The weaker a man is the stronger his habits grow on him. Play the game of life on the level and you'll win. Never judge a man by his outward appearance. Time changes, so do men and all things else, save principle. It is as fixed as the throne of God. By hiding the word of God in our heart, as the Psalmist directs, we shut out the evil which might otherwise creep in. Enlightened Christian civilization has no confidence in the multiplicity of legislative enactments. Human governments will become burdensome and a curse if the people are not civilized. Common life—just plain, common, every-day living—is the representative life, the average of it all. Life's best lessons and truest wisdom are found in the common lot. No life can be accounted a successful one which does not take God into account. Achievements may glitter and dazzle, and men may applaud them, but if the heart is not right in the sight of God, life is a flat failure. It is true, and will remain so, that the effectual fervent prayer of the righteous availeth much, but not enough to save one who is not himself personally interested in his own soul salvation. We can easily manage if we will take each day the burden appointed for it. But the burden will become too heavy if we reach back for that which is past, and then forward for that which is to come. That is the way many of us live. Any kind of foreigner can come here and you will find him a member of the city council or a juror, a member of the legislature; infact, everything; but the Negro, who has served his country faithfully for more than three hundred years is not even made a bailiff, and is absolutely denied the commonest rights of citizenship. Repentance is the scouring grace, it is that which purges, it is the bitter pill without the taking, and sound working of which base our sinful humors will rest unrestirred, unpurged, undriven out of the soul. Can repentance be where Godly sorrow is not? We thickly sow the seed of repentance, but it comes up in spots. There are times when we should get apart entirely to ourselves merely to worship. Sit, stand or bow before God with simple adoration. Contemplate what God is and who God is, and alone with our own beating hearts and God's himself, we thus hold communion. No one can emerge from a scene like this without a fresh equipment of strength. Bustling and electrical times like these in which we live require more meditation. When one has girded up his loins, grasped the battle axe firmly and with grim determination prepared to hurl himself against the hated foe; determined on an "eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth;" determined to conquer or perish, how the hard hands clutching the battle axe relax and the hot blood cools and the spirit of Christ-like humanity charges anger from its throne, then from out the long gone past, serenely down through the ages comes: "Do unto others as you would that men should do to you." Have you sent our boys any papers, letters, or cards to cheer them this week? If not, why not? They are yearning for home news. DO IT NOW. Send a postal weekly. --- WILL YOU HELP OUR BOYS ABROAD? Every Man, Woman and Child Can Join to Send News of This Town Into the Front Line Trenches. WHOLE NATION MOVES TO BANISH SOLITUDE Our Heroes Are Calling From Over There—Give What You Can to Help Those From Home. Every citizen interested in the boys of his home town now at the front, and in the brave women who equally are serving their country abroad, has an opportunity to show his appreciation of the sacrifice they are making. The opportunity comes as a result of the generosity and thought of Colonel William Boyce Thompson of New York, who has conceived and put into execution what is known as the Home Paper Service. Under the plan, every man and woman in foreign service will receive the town newspaper, and so be kept in constant touch with the places and the people they know and love. Every branch of the United States Government is interested in the plan. The Government realizes the importance of keeping those in the service happy and constantly in touch with their home ties and associations. Nothing is more depressing in a national emergency than the spirit of loneliness in those serving their country, and officials know that nothing can dispel this feeling more effectually than reading the home town newspaper. Publishers of newspapers in all parts of the country—this newspaper included—have grasped with pleasure the plan outlined by Colonel Thompson, and they have agreed to co-operate in every way. Under the ruling of the War Industries Board newspaper publishers are forbidden to send their newspapers free, even to soldiers. The newspaper must be subscribed for in the regular way, the only exception being soldiers who formerly were in the employ of the newspaper and who left that service to enlist. Colonel Thompson therefore proposes that the public in each community contribute to a fund so that the home newspaper (in our case this newspaper) may reach every man and woman now in the service of his country. Anyone may contribute to the fund, and any sum may be contributed. It is not necessary to contribute the entire amount of one subscription. It does not matter whether the rich man sends in one hundred dollars or the poor boy or little girl sends in five cents. Each gift will be a message of love and helpfulness to the home town folks "Over There." The money will be lumped into one fund, out of which subscriptions will be entered as fast as the money is received. Contributors who send in the full price of a year's subscription may, if they wish, designate to what particular person they wish the newspaper sent, but if the name given is already listed as receiving the paper, then the publisher reserves the right to apply the subscription to some less fortunate soldier boy or noble woman who is just as lonely for news of home and home folks. The name of every contributor to this home paper service will be published in this newspaper, and the name of everyone entered for a subscription will be published as well as the number of those remaining whose subscriptions have not been covered. If the amount of money received shall be more than is necessary to send the paper to every person from the town now in the service, then the balance will be turned over to the Red Cross. The plan is endorsed by the publisher of this newspaper without any thought of profit, either directly or indirectly, but with a sincere desire to help keep the home fires burning and to send to our heroes and heroes news of our town, to keep their hearts warm for us and to let them know they are constantly in our minds. The publisher, of course, cannot make a profit on circulation, and additional circulation such as this will be—circulation from non-purchasers sent far across the sea—can have no added value to the advertiser. These facts are stated so that every contributor may feel that every cent contributed goes to the good cause. The mothers of our boys are facing an ordeal with a bravery that commands respect and admiration. Here and there where tiny stars are turned from blue to gold, where anguish grips the heart, the nation stands in silence and honors the women who have given of their blood, the very bone of their bone, to their country. To them, home has lost its meaning—the soul of it has fled—there is no home, it is just a place, and no place is quite so lonely, unless it be within the hearts of those brave sons in far off France who long for just a word of home. There cannot be a man, there cannot be a woman, no, not even a child, who will fall to contribute just a little to make the hearts of these patriots lighter. Not one. Not in our town. LOOK! WHAT THE GOVERNMENT HAS GIVEN US, GOVERN YOUR SELVES ACCORDINGLY. 1. No publisher of a weekly, semi-weekly, or tri-weekly newspaper shall use in its production any paper except newsprint. 2. No publisher may continue subscriptions after three months after date of expiration, unless subscriptions are renewed and paid for. 3. No publisher may give free copies of his paper; except for actual service rendered; except to camp libraries and huts or canteens of organizations recognized by the Government, such as the Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., or K. of C.; except to the Library of Congress, and other libraries which will agree to bind for permanent keeping; except to Government departmental libraries which use said publications in their work; and except for similar reasons. 10. No publisher shall offer premiums with his publication unless a price is put upon the premium for sale separately, and the combined price is at least 75 per cent of the sum of the individual prices. 11. No publisher shall conduct voting or other contests for the purpose of obtaining subscriptions; subscriptions obtained in this way will not be considered bona fide subscriptions. 12. No publisher may issue holiday, industrial or other special editions. 13. Publishers shall, so far as possible, procure paper and all other materials from the nearest available source of supply, provided it is consistent with price, quality and service. 14. Publishers of papers of more than 8 pages in size will reduce the pages in excess of 8 pages 25 per cent. This reduction shall be an average reduction over one month's period. 15. Any publisher of a 4 or 8 page paper will be considered to have fulfilled the requirements of this order if he immediately puts into effect paragraphs numbered 1 to 13 inclusive, and in addition thereto reduces to the lowest possible point all press room waste. No newspaper may be established during the period of the war, except those for which arrangements had been made and plants purchased previous to the issuing of this order, or unless it can be shown that a new newspaper is a necessity. A sworn statement will be required from each publisher on November 1 as to how many of these rules have been put into effect by him, and what results in the matter of reducing paper consumption have been obtained. Yours very truly, THOMAS E. DONNELLEY, Chief Pulp and Paper Section, August 22, 1918. OVER HERE. Over here—over here— We will serve, we will serve—over here. While our boys are fighting, are bleeding, dying. We'll be striving—over here. So prepare—say a prayer, Do our BEST—do our BEST and be ware, We'll be faithful and we'll be hopeful. And we won't give up 'till there's FREEDOM EVERYWHERE. —Words by Frank Bristol OUR CRUSE OF OIL. A QUARTER IS ONE CENT MORE THAN A MARK. THE YANK IS WORTH TWO OF THE HUN; PUT A WAR THRIFT STAMP PUTS OIL IN THE LAMP THAT WILL BURN AFTER VICTORY'S WON. It also appears to me that when prejudices persist obstinately it is the fault of nobody so much as those who make a point of proclaiming them insuperable as an excuse for never joining in an attempt to remove them. Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckie 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 Adhema, in constant loyal service to our brother in white, even if ingratitude be our recompense and broken promises our reward. 1021-21st St. Phone Champa 752 Carpenter and Contractor New and Repair Work.

Friday evening, September 20th. at zion Baptist Church, a very enthusi- astic and appreciative audience gath ered te hear Miss Helen Hagan, of ‘New Faven, Conn., the noted planiste, who will sing for our boys “Over There.” So completely spell bound had Miss Hagan held her andience that they seemed musically in tune with the player's soul, and many en- cores were the consequence. She was forced to give several encores. In the audience there were a number of well-known musicians, who pronounced her technic and interpretation well nigh perfect. Her playing was won- derful to say the least. From the light fantastic touches to the heavy and more majestic tones she passed, swaying her hearers as she did so. Miss Hagan lives through what she plays. Sitting with her eyes closed. she seems to be lifted above the earth into a realm ethereal, in the realm of musié and there she lives and almost forgets her audience. Sometimes she finds it hard to end a piece so com- pletely does {t take possession of her. Her program consisted of Sonota Ap- passionato, Beethoven, (three move- ments); Transcriptions of Negro Mel- odies, S$. Coleridge Taylor, (a) Deep River, (a- Bamboula (African Dance) ; Love's Dream, Lizst; Garden in the Rain, Debussy, Scherzo in B flat Minor, Chopin The Y. M. C. A. Glee Club needs to be highly congratulated on their great musical success at Zion. NOTICE. Get your Xwas presents ready now for the boys in camp, and especially the boys “Over There.” Their pres- ents must be sent_by November Ist. Keep the Home Fires Burning; the test is now here, will you falter and fall or make good by generously re- sponding. pec ARO ee We wish to thank our many friends for their kindness and for the many beautiful floral tributes in our recent bereavement of our beloved wife, daughter and sister, Maggie Ada Kim- berling. Very gratefully yours, Mr. J. W. Kimberling Rev. P. D. Yochum, Dorsey Yochum, Mrs. Henry Nichols, Mr. and Mrs. Roy Nelson. pu Mr. James Walker, noted pianist, will leave this week for Lincoln, Neb., to resume his position as pianist for Crancer Music House, of that city. Mr, Walker has been granted an in- crease in his salary, and during his stay here has been the recipient of many smartly appointed affairs. Mr. Cedell Norris will entertain in his honor this week. The City Federation will resume ita reqular monthly meeting, Wednes- day, October 2nd, at the Club Home, at 8:00 p. m. A most exclusive dinner party was held at the home of Mrs. Witton, September 18th, in honor of Mrs, John Lyons, a popular matron of Kan- sas City. Mr, and Mrs, Williams are now at home to their many friends at 1822 E, Thirty-second avenue. Chapelton, the place where this fair and celebration was held is about 85 miles from Denver by Lincoln High- way, and 65 miles by way of Roggen and Wiggins route. Mr. Oliver Hard- wick, our Five Point's chauffeur prom- ised to make the trip for the Star and made it, notwithstanding his compe- tition was keen after his advertise- ments had stirred the people. He took sixteen people, including the Y. W. C. A. girls, who furnished the prograin after arriving there about 4:30 p, m. The big eight-seated “Seeing Denver” car started at 5:00 a. m. with Mr. EE. }Brown, a Dearfield settler as our pilot. After going some five miles out of the way we took the Lincoln Highway by the Model Roadhouse and kept it all the way until we reached Evans, thence we took the sectional country road a mile from the U. P. R. R. tracks until we reached Kersey, thence through Kuner, Hardin and finally Masters on the Lincoln High- way we picked up again at Kersey. We left Denver and passed through Henderson, Brighton, Fort Lupton, Platteville, and branched off to Evans, three miles this side of Greeley. The big car encountered sand twice, fore- ing a delay and the walking of two blocks. At Masters We arrived at the big gate, passed through it, and we could see the two big tents from the Highway some six or seven miles southeast. We got about one and a half miles inside the gate, between the two bridges and our car went up to the hub in sand. We were stalled. Mr. Ross then walked three and-a half miles in the sand to Chapelton to notify the com- mittee of their plight.. He met Con- tractor Ernest Howard and Messrs. Fred O'Neal and Brown. the hatter, and his wife, who, with their machine were stuck about two miles from us. They were sitting eating watermelons when, upon request Mr. Howard con- sented to go and get the Y. W.C. A. girls and take them forthwith to the colony. In the meantime Messrs, A. A. Waller, S. A. MeGuire, Chas. Green and E. E. Brown, our pilot started and walked through the fields to Chapel- ton. Messrs. Jonas Cooper and Gal- lant George North were kind enough to transport the-rest of our party to the grounds. Then about 5:00 p. m. the ¥. W. C. A. girls began their con- cert and we have heard the girls ai most in every condition, but frankly and truthfully speaking, never have they sung as they sung Saturday af ternoon. The white people were loud and enthusiastic in their praises. Candidate Claud E. Newton for Coun: ty Clerk and Recorder, said Mrs Hicks Le Noir and Miss Cole had the finest voices he had ever heard. The people were overjoyed. Nearly ten autos from Denver were there besides the farmers from the sur- rounding towns. The scene was typically farmer-like with horses hitched all around and many ma. chines about. Two large tents held the exhibits which consisted of corn, peas, beans, squash, pumpkin, water: melons, cantaloupes, honey dew mel. ons, sweet and white potatoes, onions, wheat, rye, millet, alfalfa and cane This produce surprised many people who could hardly believe their eyes. Lessons Learned and Suggestions Offered. | Produce—two kinds: perishable and non-perishable. Too much perishable specialized; there ought to be more non-perishable, so that produce could ‘be plentiful the year round. Greeley ‘specializes in white spuds, what should Chapelton become famous in? Whenever a city is invited to take [part in a fair, the roads ought to be at least in such shape that travel could pass. Our suggestion is to either have the fair in or near the |Lincoin Highway, near Jackson's ‘townsite, or fix those sandy roads so jmachines can operate freely, or cut a road through to the Lincoin High: ‘way and then go over the Collier Hill to Wiggins. By all means guide posts should be put up along both routes. There should have been an old time country dinner which all the farmers would donate the necessities for, in stead of the kind of dinner we get at the Night and Day Cafe, at a steep price. Barring all accidents and mishaps, the day was profit: ably spent and the farmers who have made their honors and who de- serve great credit for seeing the thing “through,” are greatly inspired by the great gathering brought by the Star. Much farm produce was brought down by the visitors. Nearly 500 people at- tended the fair of which 150 were from Denver. Farms were visited. some visited more than a week while others stayed Saturday night and the Hardwick party returned in six hours. The Star ts proud of Mr. Hardwick's nerve and such keen competition to carry and return the big auto car as promised. Watch him next year. © Prizes Awarded. {a) Ford & Robinson, first prize, $5.00; (b) Dr. and Mrs, Jones, second prize, $2.50; L. H. Hicks, third, blue NOs eRe cme Ae at aa Mr. E. V.

LA JUNTA NEWS No circumstances can repair a defect of character. The tongue creates nearly all the mischief of the world. Peace if possible; but truth at any price. Many a man of real talent has been handicapped by his egotism. To inform the mind is to correct and enlarge the heart. To a bad Negro or a bad white man, good doctrine that teaches the golden rule, is nothing. It was the desire of ancient philosophy to find God; it is the desire of modern philosophy to get rid of him. Great as hope and faith are, they are secondary to love. The first two are human, the lost is divine, and failleth not. If in this age of muck-raking men were half as anxious to find out themselves as they are to discover the faults of others, the world would be better off. Mere family name never made a man great. Thought and deed, not pedigree, are the passports to enduring fame. Dostiny is determined by friendship. One hand opened in charity is worth a bushel folded in prayer. When friendship and love have enriched man and deepened all the secret springs of his being, when grief has refined and suffering mellowed him, then God sends the ideals to stimulate men to new achievements. Every transgression is like an iron plate hurled into the air; gravity will pull it back on the wrongdoer's head and wound him. No matter how much religion we profess, all that counts is what we live. Unfortunately mothers do not demand their wages in dollars and cents. If they did, and they demand pay according to their duties, the total lack of a sufficiency of money would stop the domestic wheel. Their compensation, and all they ask for, is the kindness, affection, love, and devotion of their children. Beyond this, consideration of everything ceases to exist. Below it, the temple of life crumbles on the awful desert of forsaken hearts. Deny the mother every luxury that money can provide, imprison her in a hovel without anything but the bare necessities, but let her feel that her children love and honor her name and she will raise her heart in prayer with a ferver of thankfulness that only her tender heart knows how to breathe. .1 am Denver's representative for the famous Hager's Medicines.

World news is all right, but OUR BOYS want NEWS OF THIS TOWN. They want the home newspaper. Publishers are prevented from sending their pgpers free to anyone, even boys in the service. Consequently a national » ‘movement has been started by Col. William Boyce Thompson of New York, who is acting as President of the Home Paper Service of America to give the boys what they are calling for. Every community is joining the movement. S Let us see that our boys are not forgotten. Send to the publisher of this newspaper whatever amount of money you can—5S cents or $50.00. We will publish a list each week of those contributing, and the amounts contributed. Every cent received will be used to send this paper to our boys at the front. If at the end of the war, there is any surplus, it will be turned over to the local Red Cross Committee. J There is no profit in this to the publisher— even in normal times, subscriptions are not sold at a profit. With war prices prevailing, and the high rate of postage on papers sent to France, our cost will scarcely be covered »y our full subscription price. Remember that over in France, some brave soldier or sailor from this town—perhaps even some splendid woman working within sound of the guns—is depending on you to “KEEP THE HOME LOVE KINDLED.” There is a spirit of romance about the air service that appeals to the average American, and at this stage of the war-nothing is more important. ‘The planes have been called “the eyes of the army,” but now they will be more, for they will carry the war into Germany. Tons of high explosives dropped from the skies are advance notices that ihe war is moving toward Berlin. Not everyone can qualify for the air service, but with the coming of the Fourth Liberty Loan everyone can have a direct hand in its activities. The purchase of one $50 bond, for Instance, will pay for the ammunition used in a sharp 2-minute fight with a Hun plane and, once in action, two minutes usually decides the battle one way or the other. It will buy one high explosive bomb, dropped on some Boche fortification, or pay for the gasoline that will carry the bombing plane and its fighting protectors far into Germany. The deadly machine gun that is geared to shoot between the blades ot the propeller can be bought with the proceeds of four $50 bonds. A day's fighting for an American pilot usually means that an observa- tion plane, signalling back hits and ranges to batteries in the rear, can continue its invaluable work. With- oUt the fast fighter to protect him the slower flxing observation plane would be an easy prey for the Hun. The American who buys one $500 bond pays for that day’s fighting.

My blood has drenched the battlefield and still you trod me down; the Red, White and Blue in my charge has never trailed the ground. All I desire, America, is what I've got I've earned—the right to live to freedom in its fullest sense and terms. They why should I be scorned, denied the right of man—my father bled and died that the cause of freedom stand. Am I a thing, America, to be despised and crushed? Your Justice to me, America, with shame this land should blush. Imprisoned, lynched and burned on slightest provocation. Oh, what a disgrace to you, a so-called Christian Nation. A man who says I'm a Christian, yet his fellowman despise and love one whom he has never seen. God says he lies, "Do unto others as you would have them to you." What a blessed land, America, if this were only true? There are those, America, whom my right to live denied, who would not let me live in peace or let me honorably die. Branded as a rapist, a black-hearted lie, a subterfuge to cover their crime, with impunity the law defy. Let the law take its course and justice go color blind and punish men not by color but punish for the crime. Prove them guilty beyond a doubt, their guilt not theory, but fact—the innocent has oftimes suffered for an alleged criminal act. The mob is composed of criminals, brutes, fiends incarnate, not true American citizens and should suffer a criminals fate. I condemn not all, America, but my true white friends are few, who have the courage of their convictions to plead my cause with you. Afraid of political death or be socially ostracised, if我 they encourage or my true worth recognize You summoned me, America, to do a citizension me, America, to do a America, I come with all my heart I'll do my bit, America, and do it with a will, just as I did in '63, Carrish and San Juan Hill. You cannot doubt my loyalty, the trust I've never betrayed, the death stared me in the face, cowardice I've never displayed. You owe me something, America, and that a citizen protection. I've proved to you that I'm a man regardless of my complexion. Tho a dark skin beatha a ragged jacket, my heart with patroltism throbs, even the ringing in mine ears, a howling, cowardly mob, who would persecute, hound, oppress me, the door of advancement close, while I stand ready, life in hand, to oppose your acknowledged foe. To my black brother fight on, answer every call, there is One above who pays, who sees the sparrow fall. Seees every injustice, every cruel blow, to Him you shall answer, America, and reap what you sow. Unhand, unchain me, loose my shackled feet, that I may fight life's battle, mine enemies defeat. The dearest thing on earth to you, the dearest thing to me is what our father's bled and died for—freedom and liberty—Paul Leon Caldwell, Spanish War Veteran. NEGRO, WHICH CAMP? NEGRO! America today is divided into two camps—Americans and Alien Enemy Those who are not for America are against her—enemies all. Those who are idle, selfish or even indifferent are Aliens—allen to American interest. Only the workers, "comrades in this great enterprise," hear the honored name—Americans. Negroes, where do you stand? COLORED MAJOR MADE LIEUTENANT COLONEL Philippine Islands—Major Ollie B.
