Denver Star

The papers formerly known as The Statesman and The Independent, have been merged into The Denver Star Washington, D. C., Oct., 3 War department officials state that since the officer's Reserve Training Camp at Fort Des Moines, out of which came 630 colored commissioned officers, and prior to the establishment of the training schools at Camps Taylor and Pike, 114 colored men were commissioned as officers in Infantry, 11 in Calvary and 35 in Field Artillery. 107 officers in Infantry came out of the recent class at Camp Pike and 33 in Field Artillery came out of Camp Taylor last month. The foregoing summary gives a total of 941 colored officers graduating from the Officer's Training Schools, and these figures are exclusive of those commissioned in the Medical Reserve Corps and in special branches of the services, both over here and abroad, and the court does not embrace the officers of the National Guard and those in original Regular Army. The War College at Washington advises that there have been registered 207 white labor companies, 200 of which were sent overseas before their organization was entirely complete. This is positive evidence that these Labor Battalions are not confined exclusively to colored membership, as has been intimated in some quarters. A colored Woman's Volunteer Service League of Newark, N. J., has been organized, as branch of the Mayor's Committee of the Woman's Committee of the Council of National defense, and has opened headquarters at 249 Mulberry street, where colored soldiers may be made "at home" and entertainments provided for for them. A suitable building is to be secured for the establishment of a canteen for the benefit of the soldier. Some of the officers of this voluntary Service League are: President, Mrs. Amorel Cook; sec retaries, Mrs. L. M. Holmes, Mrs. M. E. Burrell, Mr. E. E. Hilton, and Mrs. Emma Wormley; treasurer; Mrs. Louis Hilton. CHAIRMAN HAYS ON LYNCHING Under the head of "Some Suggestions in Connection With the Work Before Us," Will H. Hayes, Chairman Republican National Committee, in speaking of lynching, says: "Lynching, under any circumstances or conditions, is a crime. It is a crime against judgement and justice, reason and righteousness. It is an affront to the accumulated wisdom of past ages. It is a condemnation of Christisnity. To resort to it can be justified on no grounds. It merits the excoriation and detestation of every high minded citizen, and must be forever prevented in this country." GENEVA M. MORGAN TO MONSTRATE PSYCHO- IRRADIATION SHORTER A, M. E. CHURCH The announcement that Miss Geneva M. Morgan, famous mentalist and psycho irradiationalist, of Chicago Ill. will give a demonstration lecture at Shorter A. M. E. church. Thursday night, Oct. 10th, is hailed with delight by all who are interested in Science. It is admitted that the Negro race—in spite of depressing influences—has made remarkable progress. Yet, it is unwise to be indifferent and inactive because of past achievements, for there is much that must be accomplished before Negoes, as a race, will be respected. The plain and painful truth is that there are serious and significant obstacles to our progress—obstacles which cannot be surmounted by submission and indifference. Seldom if ever have our people the pleasure and opportunity of wittnessing a demonstration such as is given by Mils Morgan. We have failed to act wisely in matters of our race, vital to our interest. We have been somewhat color-blind to certain pertinent facts. Two long have we observed important occurrence from a narrow and disadvantageous angle which has done little more than reflect harmfully and seemingly justify our senseless indifference. She is supreme in her line of work; she has captivated and mystified thousands and lauded by pulpit and press. Race-contempt, the spirit of dissension, false leadership and lack of confidence and respect combine to form the greatest part of the black man's burden. Such qualities are far more injurious than the unjust and undemocratic attitude of white men in dealing with Negroes. There will be no admission. A cordial invitation is extended to all. A freewill offering will detaken. There are abundant evidences of race-contempt among Negroes. Many of us, with keen resentment, actuated by racial disregard, condemn and studiously avoid the use of the ethnological term Negro. These silly persons—who would not be taken seriously but for the race-contempt they inculcate in the minds of the Negro boys and girls—invent all kinds of appellations which are both foolish and futile. But the term "colored" is the most meaningless of all the montrosi ties which correctly reveal the curious notions of our people. While in Denver, Miss Morgan will be the guest of Mrs. Chas. C. Turner. 3037 Welton St. WHITE OFFICER SHOOTS POOR COLORED WOMAN Atlanta, Ga.—At Metcalf, Ga., near Thomasville, an officer, while in quest of a deserter, entered the home of a colored woman, Mrs Marie Powell. She protested, but to no avail. She endeavored to force her protest, and was brutally killed by the brave officer. This officer had no business whatever in the home of the woman unless he had a warrant authorizing him to enter, and we doubt this materially. It is a cowardly deed for a stalwart man, in the garb of an officer of the law, to shoot down people in their homes. This officer was ac quitted by a jury, but he has not helped the cause of democracy, nor will he clear his conscience. Justice of a divine kind awaits him, and it will be sure. DYNAMITED NEGRO WIDOW'S HOME--MAYOR AND POLICE-MEN VERY SORRY Kansas City, Mo.—In the Montgall district last Saturday night, the home of Mrs. Pris cilla Quarles, a widow who has two sons in France fight ing "for Democracy," was ruthlessly bombed by a lawless gang of white Huns. The police of Kansas City offered this widow no protection from these Hun's while her sons fight for liberty and democracy. We understand that both the Mayor and police are sorry, but unable to get any clew whatever of these vandals who are as much Huns as the dynamiters and murderers in Hindenburg army. Let Ne groes in Kansas City arise and protect themselves. no less destructive and ridiculous. Negroes from the North despise Negroes from the South; and the Southerns are divided among themselves. Negroes from one Southern State, believing themselves better than Negroes from another Southern State, proudly do their part to keep alive the spirit of dissension and thereby prove to the world that the Negro race is weak and divided. NEGROES GET TOGETHER STATING PLAIN FACTS Perhaps "leaders" are the most burdensome form of the black man's burden. These "leaders" are devoid of every honorable quality; they by their conduct really elucidate the note worthy distinction between the two stimuli, principle and profit. They are "leaders" who follow and obey the orders of white men because they are the purchase of black folk. They are the Judas Iscariots who betray for pieces of silver, but, unlike their patron saint, are conscienceless and lack the manliess and the sense of shame to hang themselves, and thereby leave the masses free and unhampered to work of their own destiny. We find other false leaders in the pulpit decrating the sanctuaries by their presence and defiling the Word of God by mere utterance. Now and then these ministerial leaders are the grateful beneficiaries of a Slush Fund, say for instant, the two million-dollar Slush Fund; now and then, being mindful of the money they were paid, we find them advocating in the pulpits or at some auditorium the election of some "true reformer" to an office of trust and honor. Then there are the light-completion Negroes who in their race mockery pay for the association of white persons. Furthermore Negroes become noteworthy and acquire money and possessions they select as their wives disreputable white women—characters of the underworld who are despised by their friends and families and ostracized by the social standards of their race. And they choose these specimens of human depravity for their wives in spite of the fact that there are women of the Negro race who possess all the qualities that make women truly noble and honorable! Under any circumstances it would seem natural that a race of people, who are common sufferers from a certain condition, would be bound together in common loyalty. But a careful examination of the relative facts will indicate that such is not the case with Negroes who are admittedly victims of prejudice. It is unbelievable, but nevertheless true, that there are persons who are diligently engaged in sowing the seeds of dissension among Negroes. This prenicious practice, as a natural consequence, encourages and promotes an antagonistic sentiment whose effects are obviously destructive. When the fight is greatest, when sacrifice and loyalty are required we find our false leaders "closing ranks" and pleading with Negroes to subordinate their rights and put something else first—a Something which they would like to believe is theirs but which the memories of the hanging of innocent men, the burning of outraged women and the trampling of an eight-month child torn from its mother's womb compel them to question. Foolish native pride, which is common to all people, is mainly responsible for the noticeable effects which have been produced. In the West Indies the insular pride of the different groups of Negroes Islanders keeps them divided and antagonistic toward each other. In the British West Indies the Barbadian Negro is despised by the other Negro islanders; the Jamaican Negro believing in his superiority is haughty and bombastic in his conduct when ever dealing with other Negro Islanders; the Negro from Antigua actually scorns the Negro from St Kitts, and the same is true of other Negro Islanders: each group possess the same insular pride, each group succumbs and gives vent to the spirit of antagonism. We find other betrayers of our race's confidence hurry to a well known city—like doctors called in consultation over a sick patient—and there agreeing that the masses are suffering from "justifiable grievances" and advising that the masses should forgive and forget. We find these race-traitors, everywhere engaged in dishonorable pursuits, and they and their successors will remain so engaged until an outrage and enraged race makes an awe-inspiring example of their type. The Danish West Indians, now known as Virgin Islanders, dislike, and disliked by the different groups of British West Indian Negroes. Then they too, manifest that foolish insular pride among themselves. Negroes from St Thomas are impressed with a sense of their own importance and superiority and they substitute this for good common sense whenever dealing with Crucians; and the Negroes from St Croix (Crucians) are as ridiculous and conceited as any other group. It must be remembered that in the West Indies the most exacting social standard prevail—social standards based upon the complexion, the texture of the hair, possessions, occupation, learning and parentage. Everything taken into consideration conclusively prove that each one lives in a "fool's paradise". As a race we lack confidence, that quality which is so essential to the success and welfare of any people. A man suffers more from self indictment than from the denunciation Then there is the pitiable and ominous division, "that feeling," between West Indians Negroes and American Negroes. But this is not all, for the latter, like the former, are divided among themselves and manifest a spirit that is FIVE CENTS A COPY. NEGROES EAGER TO GET IN FIGHT The Negroes Soldiers of the American army are not only anxious for real fighting, but many have high ideals of their duty. "We are here," said Sergt., Greenleaf Johnson from the Colored Y. M. C. A., at Washington, "not because we think the Negroes of the United 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 is small, in the great contest to make the world better morally, socially, and economically. We realize that any thing which helps the world also makes life better for all humanity." Sergeant Johnson told the bravery of Captain Sylvester Epps, a Spanish war veteran and chief messenger for successive secretaries in Washington. He was in charge of the men who repelled a German raid on the lines in the Vauquois Forest. Captian Arthur Davis, a clerk in the Washing ton postoffice, also took part in the same fight, in which the enemy lost 100 men in killed and wounded and fifty prisoners. One colored soldier received the distinguished service cross for stamping into the ground a grenade. COLORED MEN RECEIVE COMMISSIONS IN ARMY Little Rock, Ark: At the closing exercises of the Infantry division of the Central Officers Training School at Camp Pike. Little Rock, Ark., one hundred and seven colored men, representing nearly every state in the Union, received commissions as second Lieutenants. Their conduct in camp and city was most praiseworthy. They came from all walks in life, from college down. of his enemies. And it is not hyperbole to declare that Negroes are suffering more from their own condemnation of white men. Negroes are unduly suspicious of each other, and so long as there is suspicion, so long will it be impossible to maintain unity with in the race Because of the lack of confidence, this suspicious. Negro enterprises do not receive the amount of patronage to which they are entitled; and what ever patronage they receive is obtained because of the convenience which Negro enterprises afford, and not because of any racial consideration. There are not a few instances where Negroes have passed by the stores which are owned by members of their race and have patronized white stores. This Continued on page 8 Rev. P. J. Price, Pastor. 2414 California St., Phone Champa 1059 The activities of the church are doing nicely. The pastor and wife returned from vacation much helped. The suit contest presented by Bro. W. B.

It was a splendid crowd which gathered at Shorter Church last Sunday afternoon to witness the program rendered under the auspices of the Women's Service League and the "Y." The occasion was the presentation of a service flag to the "Y" by the ladies of the League. Mrs. Isabelle Stewart was so deeply interested that she rose from a sick bed to be present at the meeting. Mrs. Judge Le Fevre opened the speaking with an address on the objects of the League. She was followed by Rev. Dr. C. H. Mead, pastor of Trinity M. E. Church, who gave a vivid description of conditions as they exist on the battle front. He also gave exhibitions of gas attacks, etc. The thrilling address of the occasion was made by Mrs. Grenfell, who spoke with all the enthusiasm of her soul. She, too, has been overseas, and has a most wonderful story. After the speaking was over, Mrs. Stewart, with a voice trembling with emotion, presented the service flag. She said that the race had suffered, and is still suffering, what no other race had ever been called on to bear; "But," said she, "in spite of it all we are still true to our country, and mean to remain so even to the end." In a brief response, Secretary Thomas J. Bell received the flag on behalf of the "Y." The good weather has called out a number of good croquet players, and many great games have been pulled off. Next Sunday afternoon at the Zion Baptist Church a public patriotic meeting of the Y. M. C. A. will be held. Rev. Dr. D. E. Over, who has just returned from a trip to Camp Lewis and the great Northwest, will be the speaker, telling of his experiences and how he found our boys. The program will begin at three-thirty o'clock, and the entire public is invited. PEOPLE'S PRESBYTERIAN. The children of the Junior Choir meet every Sabbath afternoon at 4 o'clock in the church for rehearsal. Last Sabbath a most unique service was conducted in the church, the occasion being the observance of "Harvest Home Festival." The fruits and vegetables, preserves and other edibles were varied and numerous. The congregation responded most marvelously with their gifts that were donated Monday morning to charitable organizations of the city and to the Thrift House. The church was very tastefully decorated. A full choir displayed their ability as they sang appropriate anthems whilst the congregation united with the singing of the hymns. Mrs. M. E. Morrison was chairman of the committee. The membership is to be complimented for their activity in this service. That a strong working program should be adopted for our winter religious activities for the church the pastor desires to see all the members of the church at the mid-week services next Wednesday night.

Pekingese dogs have been known to the western world little more than half a century. During the looting of the imperial palace at Peking, an English soldier picked up a dog belonging to the empress. Her attendants attacked the Tommy en masse. He suggested that the dog be sent as a gift from the empress to Queen Victoria. The plan was agreed to and the dog was sent to Buckingham palace, where he was known as Looty. Other dogs took exception to his appearance and made him wish he were back in China. When the prince and princess of Wales returned from a trip to the continent, the princess persuaded the queen to let her take him to her home at Sandringham. The princess thought Looty's loneliness should be ended, since he couldn't make friends with any English dog, so she sent to China for a mate of his own kind. The fad started by the princess was taken up by London society and the breeding of Pekingese dogs became so popular that London dog shows have sometimes been devoted exclusively to the new type. In a Tiger's Lair. In the lair of a tiger there are certain terraces, or places under overhanging trees, which are covered with bones, and are evidently spots to which the animal brings its prey to be devoured. On such a terrace one will find the remains of a deer, wild hog, dog, pig, porcupine, pangolin and other animals both domestic and wild. A fresh kill shows that with its rasplike tongue the tiger licks off all the hair of its prey before devouring it and the hair will be found in a circle around what remains of the kill. The Chinese often raid a lair in order to gather up the quills of the porcupine and the bony scales of the pangolin which are esteemed for medicinal purposes.—Exchange. Australasian Bird Lovers. The wild birds of Australia when painting have each their own peculiar methods of courtship. For tenderness note the dusky wood-swallow (bee-bird), which snuggles up close to the lady of his choice after bringing her grubs and other succulent insects. On the other hand, some of the parrot tribe make love much after the stone-age fashion, when the caveman simply clubbed his heart's desire insensible and dragged her home by the hair. A male rosetella parrot, for instance, invariably begins by biting her, presumably to inspire her with respect. After this operation the gaudly-dress'd suitor spreads his tall fanwise, flirts his wings and displays his points, in order to attract the lady's admiration. He Was Out. Sam had been very sick, and the white "doctah" for whom he worked at odd jobs had been attending him. One evening the doctor called and found Sam talking almost incessantly. The doctor turned to Mrs. Sam and asked soberly, "Has he any lucid intervals?" "No, sah, doctah; you only left three, you know, and I done give him the last one at fouah o'clock."

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. There is a way that seemeth right, but it is all wrong. To the victor belongs the spoils and he who wins his spurs should wear them. "Nuff sed." Negroes in this fall campaign, we shall face cowardice, treachery, opposition and everything which might reflect upon our race, but with your help, encouragement and prayers, we shall make a fight for decency, democracy and a square deal for Negroes. As we go to press, we are informed that a County Central Committee has been formed by the Republicans to handle the interests of the Negroes in this county. We see no reason why we Negroes cannot work together in complete teamwork. Uncle Sam has forced our young men to do so, now why cannot Denver Negroes do so voluntarily? We only ask that the committee be square and deal straight and The Star is with you, but we will leave you when we scent any crooked dealing. Make your platform big and broad enough to include everybody who want to elect our friends to office. The Negroes in Denver are now on trial. Let us make good, and "go over the top." Let this County Central Committee—every single one—get out and register the people not registered or resign from the committee of doers. This is no time for chair-warmers, wall flowers or hot-air, excuse-making politicians. Do duty or stand aside. Some one ought to check them up. Hereafter all complaints and differences orientating among the Negroes will be settled by this County Central Committee. In other words, Negroes will settle their own differences. A step in self-government. They asked for it and were granted the same. Now the burden is on the Negro to make good. Will you help? NEGROES REGISTER OCT. 10TH (THURSDAY).

O. 766 Mobile, A. E. F. Somewhere in France, Headquarters Detach, 317th Enes. Dear Brother—This is a very pretty Sunday September afternoon in these European mountain forest regions. One town is about as large as Colorado City, and the main idea is parading the streets in Sunday clothes for the native folks and army men, Americans and others. We have some very commodious quarters for our officers, but one cannot help being lonesome, and think of the parks, and open air moving pictures and refreshments of the American cities. I have tried to buy candy and chocolate here, but they are both rare articles, and when found are very high in price. I got some mail last week from mother and cousin Edna Elliott Hamilton's oldest daughter in Tonganoxie, Kan., also from an old Ann Arbor friend. Cannot write much about the war and the front because of the censor, but we are doing "our bit" faithfully and loyally to help Uncle Sam win the war, and while all is not玫瑰, we are getting some valuable lessons of human life and contact, which if we live through it all will prove valuable to us in later life. Have not heard from Marie for several weeks. I wish you would write her and find out if things are going well or not. Our mail is so uncertain and unreliable. Marie is making big sacrifices for her country in my absence here at the Front, and deserves the highest praise and honor like all true American wives and mothers, and I want you and Gertie to show your patriotic appreciation by writing to her and let her know you both think so. It all helps to cheer up her courage to endure to the end. I get your paper here every once in a while and it certainly is good to read about home folks and affairs. I lost an opportunity to see the commander-in-chief of the whole Allied forces today. I am speaking French a little more fluently now, although it is a blonde French to the natives yet; they "compree trey bien" (understand very well). I have seen some pretty aeroplane fighting in the last few days, and our boys have been gassed and shelled frequently. My age shows up so much plainer now in comparison with these younger men that I really think some times I am much older than I am. The mental strain is great, yet I am standing it pretty well (assey bien). I got a letter from Mrs. E. B. Butler of Colorado Springs since coming over and replied. Tell all my Colorado Springs friends and Denver acquaintances "Hello" for me. Mother writes that the De Young girls are married and doing well in San Diego. Cal. The weather here is beginning to change to Fall, and winter underwear will soon feel very needy. Everywhere one goes he can see the "eternal struggle between old age and youth, education and ignorance, progress and stagnation. My experience has taught me much since I left the states and should God permit me to live and some day tell you, we will certainly have some interesting talk for you and Gertie. I want you both to throw an arm around Marle by writing to her, 945 Walker Ave., K. C. Kans. Bye, your loving brother. When friendship and love have enriched man and deepened all the secret springs of his being, when grief has reined and suffering mellowed him, then God sends the ideals to stimulate men to new achievements. POCATELLO, IDAHO, NEWS. The funeral of Mrs. Rosie Johnson who was shot and instantly killed by Joe James Sunday morning was held at the A. M. E. Church Thursday, September 26 at 2:30 p. m. Rev. H. S. Hamilton (white) officiated. The remains were laid to rest in the Mountain View Cemetary. Joe James, the slayer of Mrs. Johnson, was captured Monday evening out in the sage brush north of Fort Hall by Sheriff Mabey and is now in the county jail awaiting the November session of District Court. James confessed to the killing and says that he was fully justified. Mr. Harris Johnson, husband of the murdered woman, was also shot, but is reported to be getting along well. Mrs. C. A. Anderson, of Chicago, Ill., a missionary worker, stopped over in our city a few days last week; she is en route from the Hawaiian Islands. She stopped all through the Golden state of California, throughout Idaho, and will tour several more states before reaching Chicago. Rev. J. A. Duncan was in Missoula, Mont., last week on church business. Rev. Billingsley of Ogden was here Sunday and gave communion at Bethlehem Baptist church. Sunday School was well attended. The A. M.

It also appears to me that when prejudices persist obstinately it is a 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 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. 1021-21st St. Phone Champa 752 EARNEST HOWARD Carpenter and Contractor New and Repair Work. .

Allen, first son of Presiding Elder and Mrs. J. H. Allen, a very capable Christian young man, came to Denver a little more than a year ago, joined the church and made himself useful as a Christian. In fact, he and his wife became almost indispensable in Campbell Chapel A. M. E. Church membership. Those playing the role of hostess included Miss Marene Green, Mrs. A. G. Belt, Mrs. Eugene Moore, Mrs. Ruth Jones, Mrs. Fannie Buchner, Mrs. Edna Hayes, Mrs. Vinita Hall, Mrs. Vera Lankford, Miss Josephine Beatty and Mrs. Sharp.

According to Hartford Courant, there died in one of the shore towns recently a man in his eightieth year, of whom the newspapers said little, yet in some ways his career was as unique as to demand some consideration. He was a farmer, had spent his life in farm work and for fifty years had been employed by one family. The Civil war had just ended when he began his term of service as a typical Connecticut farm hand, who ate his meals with his employer and the members of his employer's family, and who reserved and exercised the right of criticizing his employer's acts and decisions, if need be, at all times and in all places. He saw his employer grow old and go the way of all the earth, but went on with the farm work in the employ of his son, who had taken his father's acres and worked with and for him until the son went from youth to well past middle age and was able to muster for work a good-sized group of grandons of the original employer. At last he reluctantly admitted that he was growing old and, of his own volition, left his employment and, at last, when the malady which killed him after three days seized him, it found him at work in a garden. There are not many men who spend their entire lives in a single occupation and still less who work fifty years for one family. EASY TO BLAME "OVERWORK" But According to Physician Few Really Suffer Because They Try to Do Too Much. A doctor of very wide experience has noted this phenomenon: every day men come to him, broken down in health; and almost invariably they inform him that the cause is "overwork." "Yet, on further questioning, this doctor finds that virtually none of his patients work as hard as he does. Yet he is well and they are sick; he is strong and able to do his work without exhaustion, and they can do little or no work any more. This is his deduction: that their breakdown was not due to work, but to a terrible load of psychological and physiological habits they had been carrying—a load so great that a very little work in addition overtaxed their waning strength. What are these habits? They vary with the individual, and their aspects are innumerable. Work—just plain, wholesome hard work, either physical or mental—hurts very little. It hurts healthy people—people who are healthy in mind and body—not at all. What many people call "overwork" is fretting over their work—worry. What many other people call "overwork" is loading their system with poison by overeating.—Exchange. Proper Way to Keep Honey. In selling honey as a substitute for sugar the retail grocer and his customers may encounter some difficulty through lack of knowledge of storing and handling this product, according to American Food Journal. Housewives usually put their honey in the cellar for safekeeping, probably the worst possible place, as honey absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and will become thin and in time sour. Comb honey kept in a damp place will be hurt in appearance as well as in quality. A practicable rule is to keep honey in any place where salt remains dry. If honey has granulated or canned, put the can containing it in a large vessel holding water no hotter than the hand can be borne in. If the water is too hot, there is danger of spoiling the color and ruining the flavor of the honey. The can of honey should be supported on a block of wood in the vessel of water, so that the heat from the stove will not be too intense.

THE MILITARY CAMP At midnight, when the spirit is at its lowest ebb, the ration of hot coffee puts the pep into the men for the hard, dangerous hours to come, and is the most welcome meal of the whole trench day. One $50 Liberty Bond serves midnight coffee to three whole companies in the trenches. "Boy, listen!" The muddy doughboy over in the corner of the dugout back of Chateau Thierry one wet night two months ago, hoisted his feet a little higher out of the water. "The guy that claimed an army fights on it's belly sure said a mouthful." "Why, say, we were pulling off a little raid stuff the other night over across the way and we took along a bird that had never showed up as a hero, none whiter. We went over the bags about 11 o'clock and this guy just broke his neck trying to get across to Fritz's wires." one of the most important things in the world in the trenches. In serving the food for the men in the front lines the rolling kitchens, complete cooking outfits on wheels, are brought up in the rear and emplaced as close as practicable. From there the food is brought up by carriers through the communication trenches. Each buyer of $1,000 in Liberty Bonds in the present drive makes possible the delivery of one more rolling "Hey, you," the Lieutenant whispers at him, "what's the matter with you? Dye want to get us all bumped off? We're not giving out any medals tonight." And then what do you suppose that bird told him? "Come on," he says, "let's clean 'em out quick and get back. They'll be bringing the coffee around and we'll miss it." The boy was typical. Food seems Ancestry Not Collateral. Ancestral honors are not a safe leaning post. The leaner usually grows more lean waiting for providential bonuses on parental reputation. Some stocks pay perpetual dividends, but ancestral fitness often goes to seed in the spineless scions of modern days. Nature's dividends depend on present production rather than on records of what has been. Dad's reputation is a mighty good introduction to the present busy world, but that busy old globe won't take long to set her estimate on you. Try living on the reputation of the family and it will add an extra mill to the tax rate to provide for your future as a ward of the poor board.

A pair of bullhead fishermen were in a boat anchored some distance off Broadway and it was quite dark. Another boat with two men in it anchored a short distance away and the men began fishing. The first fish to be caught was a small rock bass. "Give me that fish," said the other. It was handed to him by the one who caught it and he threw it at one of the men in the other boat, whom he knew. The fish whizzed by this man's head and landed in the boat, on the bottom of which was a lighted lantern. "Gosh!" said the one who had nearly been hit, "where did that come from?" "I don't know," replied his companion. "It jumped right into the boat in trying to get near the light," and this story is going its rounds. Metailc Lead. Evidence has recently been discovered which points toward the existence of at least two kinds of metallic lead. Every sample of ordinary lead always has exactly the same atomic weight as every other sample, but lead from radioactive minerals — lead which seems to have come from the decomposition of radium—has neither the same atomic weight nor the same density as ordinary lead, although in many properties, including their spectra, they seem to be identical. one of the most important things in the world in the trenches. In serving the food for the men in the front lines the rolling kitchens, complete cooking outfits on wheels, are brought up in the rear and emplaced as close as practicable. From there the food is brought up by carriers through the communication trenches. Each buyer of $1,000 in Liberty Bonds in the present drive makes possible the delivery of one more rolling kitchen which will serve one company. Between six and eight $50 bonds pay for the pots, pans and other kitchen equipment. One $100 bond will feed the whole company for a day in the trenches and, as the muddy soldier in the dugout corner said that night at Chateau Thierry, "The feller that's putting up his dough for bonds that buy the chow is fighting this here war a whole lot more than he knows." SENSE OF SMELL WONDERFUL Olfactory Nerves Capable of Doing Work That Can Only Be Called Marvelous. It is said that the tenth part of a grain of musk will continue for years to fill a room with its odoriferous particles, and that at the end of that time it will not be appreciably diminished in weight. A cubic inch of air arising from the flame of a Bunsen burner has been estimated to contain no fewer than 480,000,000 dust particles. A drop of blood that might be suspended from the point of a needle contains about 1,000,000 red corpuscles. Yet, although matter is so marvelously divisible, the olfactory nerves are infinitely more sensitive. Much yet remains to be investigated with reference to these nerves which will discriminate with such apparent miraculous accuracy. Evils of Eye Fatigue. Many nervous as well as other diseases are caused by incorrect illumination. The eye is a subject of prime consideration in connection with our health and happiness. Eye fatigue spoils the disposition; as that is one of the conditions given for inefficient work we find here a cause for more loss of the workman's time. When reduced to a dollar and cents basis this loss shows large percentage over the cost of the lighting that would be required to eliminate them. As judgment is dependent upon perception and perception upon the sight, then the laborer, to be efficient, must be able to see fine details and small objects at close range with sharpness and distinction, to distinguish objects at a distance with accuracy, and to have clear perception of all objects in the intermediate space. A Watch and No Owner. The owner of a Shelby county watermelon patch has found a watch therein. The watch is said to be in good condition and ready to be restored to its owner upon proving property, paying for the newspaper notice, and possibly fully explaining just how and why the watch got into the melon patch. Unless it's a mighty valuable watch we have serious doubts as to its being claimed—St. Louis Republic.

I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign states; a perfect Union, one and inseparable, established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies. I go to fight for my country and I trust that those who remain behind will be as true as we who have gone.
