Robb, sheriff-elect, the only democrat to be elected in Polk county at the November election has already proven to the people of Polk county that he aims to fill his office with competent assistance regardless of party lines.

J., Nov. 18—"The white man will do everything he thinks he can get away with to keep the Negro a laborer," declared Roger N. Baldwin, a white man, in a address before the opening session of the First Presbyterian church. "This is not a white man's world, and it is up to the black race to convert the white man to a world that knows no discrimination," he continued. "The equality of the races is the problem ahead—it looks far off, but it is bound to come. Organization is the only way for the Negro to win a square deal. And that organization is under way." Baldwin is a member of the American Liberty unions and an ardent worker for the emancipation of the Negro from the "yoke of race discrimination." --- VOL. XXVI. NO. 22. J. W.

Fairburn, Ga.—The people of Campbell county have put up on Fairburn's main street a monument to the soldiers of this county who suffered wounds or death in the great war. Two sides of the monument carry the names of white soldiers who were killed in which they suffered or died. Two sides are similarly inscribed with the names of colored soldiers who died or were wounded. On top of the shaft is a globe of granite inscribed with the words "Their all for Democracy and the Freedom of Man." The freedom finds the monument' a tribute, not only to the soldiers, but to the justice and patriotism of Campbell county citizens. Tunica, Miss, Nov. 21.—The cotton blossom singers, who are traveling from Iowa to Mississippi by auto, crossed the line into Mississippi this afternoon at 3 o'clock and arrived in Tunica at 6.

Washington, D. C., Nov. 20.—A congressional investigation is planned into the charges of Immigration Commissioner Wallis that there is a worldwide plot to bring 10,000,000 aliens to the United States. It will probably be conducted by the house immigration and naturalization committee which has just returned from studying conditions at Ellis island. Complete information will be sought, it was learned, through the records of the state and commerce departments as to the operations of agents abroad to gather up millions of Europeans to immigrate. The immigration committee is considering legislation at an early date to stop the rush of aliens for a period of two years or more. Representative Welty, Ohio, democratic member of the committee, has asked Secretary of State Colby to take steps to check immigration. Mr. Welty wrote in part: "I am reliably informed that the steamship companies have requests for transportation of immigrants from Europe, which would tax the capacity of all ships touching American ports for ten years. In view of the sitting of a large body of lawmakers awaiting readjustment, the lack of markets for farm products and the shortage of coal, would it not be advisable to shut down immigration this winter so as to avoid additional suffering." Harding Aids Negro Bureau Commends Work of Organization Designed To Help Colored People Washington, Nov. 15.—In a letter made public today, President-elect Harding indoles the drive for funds of the White Cross Free Labor Bureau of America, an organization designed to obtain employment, decrease idleness and assist in other ways the Negro population of this country: Senator Harding says in the letter: "I take this opportunity of commending to the attention of the American people the good work being done by the White Cross Free Labor Bureau of America, of which Dr. Simon P. W. Drew, pastor of the National Baptist Institutional 'Cosmopolitan' church of Washington is president. "The organization is doing the most commendable work among the 15,000,-000 colored people of the United States in uplift work for humanity, securing positions of all kinds for employees and furnishing reliable colored help free of charge to employers. This organization is serving humanity and I feel that any Dr. Drew's help to his co-workers will be most heartily apreciated and repaid by honest, concientious efforts. OVERCOMES OBSTACLES According to the Chicago Broad Ax of Saturday, Nov. 13, some evil Christian spirit or mysterious person broke into the parsonage of Bethel A. M. E. church, located 2155 Calumet avenue which Dr. L. Birt, former pastor of St. Paul's A. M. E. church, this city, and stole all of the dishes and lace curtains. The disappearance of the articles occurred shortly after the house had been vacated by the Rev. W. D. Cook, former pastor, and his family. It would seem, judging from what has occurred recently as if an effort was being made to destroy Bethel, the eagle of the former Des Moines church. Old Bethel church continues to move onward. Already a movement has been launched to secure a larger and more modern church for its ever increasing membership. On Sunday, Oct. 31, Bishop Fountain assisted the pastor and fifty new members were enrolled. On the following Sunday Bishop H. B. Parks delivered the sermons and the result was the names of forty pastors added to the roll. The collection is very heavy at all services and those who know Dr. Birt are confident that he will overcome all obstacles that confront him. THE NEW HOME OF PORO COLLEGE, ST. LOUIS, MO. 1,221 Died and 2,853 Suffered Disability From Poison In The War Baldwin declared that every move made by the Negro to organize in his own defense is branded by the whites as a bolshevik or "Red" movement. This, he asserted, is for the purpose of preventing the advancement of the race to face the Negro in their place. "He also stated that the Negro always has received a "dirty deal in industry" and cited several alleged instances of discrimination.

This is the first time in Pollard's football career that he had to leave a game because of injuries. His snakelike dashes through a broken field were largely responsible for his team's victory by a 7 to 0 count. W. Hanbury starred in West Tech's victory over University High of Cleveland and he is being boosted for a place on the all-scholastic eleven by the papers of the Ohio metropolis. Minor, fullback on Central High team of Cleveland could not be stopped in his rushes through the line in a game against South High team of that city. He made both touchdowns scored by the winners.

Campbell, righthalf on the Ames Hyatt Junior High starred in the game against Bussey High school at East High stadium last Saturday in which the Bussyites came out with the long end of a 26 to 6 score. King, the colored halfback of Burlington High, tore great holes in the Keukuk defense in a fine exhibition of line plunging when his team battled the "Dam City" recently. Fredericks was the mainstay and star—if it might truly be said that anyone really did star-for North High—they were caught when the Pink and Great aggregation West High in the second game of the annual city championship series.

"Bob" Anderson a notorious Negro cabaret character was shot and killed by Cloe Weir a white denizen of Chicago's underworld. Jealousy was the cause for the shooting. It appears that Anderson was seeking to transfer his affections to another white woman named Ruby Weir. Weir objected to this procedure and the shooting followed during a visit of Anderson to her apartments. Anderson was one of the dandy members of the city's underworld life and was a prime favorite with the white women who frequented the "black and tan resorts on the south side." Anderson resorted to Chicago from St. Louis, Mo., where his parents and relatives are said to live. Some women do not realize that a walking shoe wears better and appears well for a longer time if it is frequently polished. A new street shoe ought not to be worn much until it is polished once, for without the polish it is much more liable to be scratched than with a good polish. Specially is this true of the pie crust. Ready-Made Pie Crust! Someone has invented a ready-made pie crust that will keep a year. By the evidences that have been encountered it might be judged that many ambitious cooks have been experimenting for a long time with this object in view.

A Jamaican Negro, Marres Harvey, is trying to get his raise on his side of the water to return to Africa, overthrow the governments of the whites and establish a black empire. He indeed has a vivid imagination, and seems to overlook the important matter of offering any real inducements. The people of the world are so mixed up that to usermanble them would be a job fit for Hercules and the league of nations combined, C. H. Anderson, a government official in New York who is a Negro, hits the nail on the head when he comments: "As to our migration to Africa, let me say that when all the English in this country voluntarily return to the banks of the Thames and all the Irish go back to the shores of the Shannon; when the Germans return to the Rhine and the French to the Rhone; when the Italians seek the Tiber, the Russians the Neva and Volga, and all the Jews once more take their stand on Jordan's stormy banks, then, and not till then, will we consider a return to the fever-stricken banks of the dreamy Niger. Even then, like the prophet of old, we will probably have to be translated in a fiery chariot." Nothing New Under Sun. The strings of blue beads that the modern girl dons to ward off bronchitis are merely new versions of the strings of blue beads worn in Egypt 1000 years before Christ to keep diseases of the chest at bay, says a writer in the Philadelphia North American.

A Appeal To the Republicans of the Country an¢ all those who aided them: The Republican success in the 192 election has been commensurate with the quality of our candidates and the righteousness of our cause. ‘This success is the partnership accom. plishment of all Republicans everywhere and of hundreds of. thousands ‘of well- wishers of good government regardless of past party affiliations. To all of these we now appeal, be- cause it is the mutual responsibility of us all who will share alike in the con- sequent benefit of good government. Tho plan of Jimiting campaign con- tributions to $1,000, adopted by your national organization; has left your party unmortgaged. Tt has been a most advincéd step in placing the business of politics on the highest plane, and has brought an in- terest on the part of thousands who never befere have been concerned with politics. Some weeks before election it was ap- parent that the expenses provided for in our budget, with the strictest economy, would exceed the contributions, but we were unwilling either-to leave undone avy legitimate effort essential to com- plete success or -to change the method of raising money. We were then sure and we are now sure that every Repub- lican desires that the expenses of the campaign be distributed in this manner. Your presidential campaign this year cost no moro than that of 1916, when a dollar went nearly twice as far as it does today. Four years ago the bulk of the cam- paign fund eame from 750 contributors, while this year the approximately $2,- 000,000 contribyted to date for the. pres- idential election has come from 50,000 givers. The vietory- won, the raising of the deficit would. be easy, indeed, if your committee“were willing to-abandon the policy of keeping down tho average of contribution, This we are determined not to do, It was a fight of all the peo- ple, The result speaks for itself.

In chapters 5 to 7 we have the laws of the kingdom; chapters 8 and 9, the mighty, works to demonstrate | the King’s ability to administer the affairs of the kingdom; chapter 10, the prep- agation of the kingdom through the sending forth of the frye: chapters 11 and 12, how the kingdom was re- ceived. 2 |, Four Classes of Hearere (ch, 11). 1. Perplexed hearers ke John the Baptist (11:2-11). John belleved that Jesus was the Christ (v, 2), but was somewhat perplexed as to the manner of the establishment of the kingdom, In the Old Téstament predictions there were two lines in the Messianic Prophectes; the one set forth Christ aa the suffering one, as in Isaiah 53, and the other, as the Invincible Con- queror, as in Isalah 68, Indeed, ta Isaiah 60:1, 2 we have the two ad- vents in one view (see Matt. 3:10-12). He said that the ax ts lad unto the root of the trees and that there was to be a separation of the chaff from thé wheat and a burning of the cAaff, but now the King’ was occupted mere- ly with the opening of the eyes of tha blind, ete. John saw Christ as tha one who would remove the sins of tha people by the shedding of his blood (John 1:29), but he failed to see’ the interval between the time of his suffers ings and the time of his triumph. Since this interval between the first and second comings—the nature of the age in which we llve—was not known until Christ revealed it in the parables ‘of the thirteenth chapter, we do not wonder at John’s perplexity. John's: faith was not failing him, neither did he send this deputation to Jesus for, the sake of his disciples. He was a true prophet and a faithful man, but he was perplexed. 2. Violent hearers (11:12-19). These were willing to receive the kingdom according to thelr own way, but were unwilling to conform to its laws. Thelr ears were closed to everything but their own carnality. ‘They would not repent when called. upon to repent by John, nor rejoice when called upon by Christ to rejoice (vv. 17-19). - 8. The stout-hearted unbelievers. (11:20-24). In Chorazin, Bethsaida, and.Capernaum, Christ bad done most of his mighty works, but the people deliberately set their hearts against him and his message. It was not tur lack of knowledge and opportunity that they were unsaved, but for thelr purposeful rejection of Christ. Tyre and Sidon, Sodom and Gomorrah were filled with immoral profiigates and idolaters, but they will be more tol- erably dealt with In the day of judg- ment than those who wilfully reject Christ. 4. Hearers: who are babes in spirit (11:25-80), ‘There were some among those who heard Jesus with childlike faith, who belleved that Christ was the Messiah, and they opened thelr hearts to recelve him. Christ {nvites those who have the babe-like spirit to come to him, and to all who come te him and receive him he gives rest. 1, The Antagonism of the Kingdom. (ch. 12), Tn chapter 11 we saw the shameful indifference of the Jews to their King. In this chapter we see positive and Ditter antagonism manifesting Itself ‘against him. ‘They are not only with- out a-heart for him, but do thelr best to destroy him. ‘The immediate oc- casion of thelr wicked determination was Christ's relation to the’ Sabbath. Teenuse the bungry disciples. plucked cor aud Jesus healed the withered Vani on te Sabbath day, they sought to de:truy bia, ‘They accused him of Delng a teague with the Devil. Jesus With waunswerable logle showed them tut they bad blasphemed against the Holy Ghost, and were therefore gultty of an unpardonable sin. They did not deny the miracle but sought to account for it without“owning him asthe Mes- siab. % 3 I To-day — : In a racial enterprize, with a Sound Investment, 5 The Verbena Perfumery Co., Ine. is the only Negro Per: fume Company in America, maintaining its own laboratory for the manufacture of Toilet Preparations prepared from. formu- las discovered by our own Negro chemist, Every preparation placed on the market by us, has come as the result of many years study and experiments by our chemist, only after each has been thoroughly tested and found worthy of maintaining that high standard of distinctive individuality, which so Signal- ly distinguished every Verbena Product, We.are Negro Capital, Negro Chemist, Negro Management vrganizec 1919, on account of the large demand for ouy-prod- ucta both here and in the following countries: Porto Rico, Santo Domingo, Haiti, Panama Canal, South Africa, Liberia, British and Virgin Islands, we were compelled to be incorporated in order to raise more funds for a larger output.

Tennessee, which ratified the Suffrage Amendment into a Federal Law, has started something which will surely muster materialize into something big and worth while if the plans of the women in Nashville go through. It is that every woman who cast a ballot in the November election shall contribute one cent toward a monument to be erected in honor of Susan B. Anthony, author of the Federal Suffrage Amendment and pioneer leader in the movement for votes. It was her quiet persistence and womanly demeanor, handed down to the women in her party who won the victory and all must acknowledge that the victory would well build a citizen from her. If every woman were to give one cent to the woman it would be as a grain of sand and would not be missed from the pocket of the humiliest, but the aggregation of cents would be a wonderful help toward the memorial which would be collossal and of use to womankind through all the years to come. Why should it not be home for homeless children, where they would be mothered until they were old enough to care for themselves after leaving the home where they had learned something to make them self-supporting to go with their education, which also was gained for themselves by building it of human souls, saved from want, despair, misery, degradation, illiteracy. "A monument built of the people's love."—(National Tribute Nov. 18). Sir: The Ku Klux Klan has been revived. Its foolish mummery does not so terrify the Negroes as it arouses bitter resentment, hatred, and the determination, if need be, to sell life dearly. The demonic enemy fails me fully in our treatment of the Negro, Betters laws are needed, no doubt. But beyond and deeper is the need for the uprooting of hatreds and misunderstanding that grow their ugly weeds between the races, and the need for watering and tending the tap root of personal worth and mutual regard in the youth of both. Atlanta university is trying to do just this thing for the Negroes. Primarily a place for the training of teachers, it has insisted upon giving a broad and general education that shall develop men and women with insight and a will to take the responsibilities of leadership. We must overcome prejudice by teaching the race that is responsible for the Ku Klux Klan brand it and shame it out of existence. For the past fifty years the graduates of Atlanta University have shown marked ability as teachers and have filled other positions of responsibility acceptably. One of them, James Weldon Johnson, has recently stirred the whole nation by his accounts of affairs in Hawaii. The graduates are proud for the support of Atlanta university. This year their gifts and those of other donors must be supplemented by additional private subscriptions to keep our work vigorous.

Pittsburgh Die DADDY'S EVENING FAIRY TALE By Mary Graham Donner Square "Ah," said Grandfather Frog, "the great time is at hand." "What are you talking of, grandfather?" asked Mr. Felix Frog. "I am talking of the great time which is soon to come," said Grandfather Frog. "The eggs were laid in the mud puddles and upon the mud banks, where they would not roll off. And soon they will be hatched out and there will be gorgeous numbers of little ones—300, or so, all hatched out about the same time just here. "Goog-a-room, goog-a-room, that is a glorious fact." "It is indeed, goog-a-room, goog-a-room, it is indeed," said Mr. Felix Frog. "Now there are the mud turtles," continued Grandfather Frog, "who bury themselves and catch what they can in the mud, they love the mud, too, they love it more than we do. They hardly stir from the mud when the little ones are still very little ones. "The snapping turtles in their grassy, watery homes stretch out their long necks and with their hooked jaws they grab what they want to eat. "Because of their hooked jaws they must swallow what they have reached for with their long necks. That is, they don't eat with their long necks, but their long necks help them to reach for the food and their jaws swallow it down. "Of course, because of their jaws they can't chew. "Old Mud Turtle, over yonder has been waiting for those eggs of hers to hatch out now for two weeks. In another week they will hatch out. "We all like the spring of the year, too. But my history is so much more interesting than that of any of these other creatures." "And so is mine," said Mr. Felix Frog. "To be sure it is," said Grandfather Frog, "for you, too; are a frog. There is an egg first (I am taking one as a sample, for there are many eggs) and then a tadpole wriggles out of the jelly like case it is in and begins its life outside of the egg. "It attaches itself near a nice water weed. Water reaches the gills through the mouth and that, of course, is after it has fed on plants and has begun to get its gills. Then the legs appear, hind ones first. That shows a frog is rather sensible, for hind legs are important to a frog's mind or to the body." Grandfather Frog cleared his throat. "Pray, continue," said Mr. Felix Frog. "I love to hear of our history over and over again even though I know it well myself." "The lungs arrive after the gills," continued Grandfather Frog. Mr. Felix Frog laughed. "You sound as though the trunks arrived after the hand luggage, the way you talk," he said. "But I enjoy it just the same." Grandfather Frog blinked his eyes and went on. "The leopard frog becomes a frog in a summer, but with the green built frog it takes up into the second summer for him to become a full-fledged frog. "We have catches like teeth in our mouths," he continued. "Our eggs are attached to twigs or other supports under the water and the eggs in the jelly are well protected for the jelly as you can easily understand is a protection. And there is the mud which we love, too, and which the eggs thrive near and in. "Oh, dear," said Granfather Frog. "I would be most unhappy if we ever should become frogs right away without having all these interesting experiences first, such as being in jelly and then being tadpoles and all of the fascinating things which frogs do before they become frogs. It is so much more interesting than to become a frog at once." "Ah, well," said Mr. Felx Frog, "we will always do these things—all frogs will—and the history of the frogs will always continue, for it is such an honor to be a froq that one wants to work np to it in degrees." "True, true," said Grandfather Frog, "and I know the family will never change its ways, goog-a-room, goog-a-room." Made Dorothy Tired. Small Dorothy was very restless the other night and was unable to go to sleep. Finally she said: "Papa, please sing to me; that always makes me tired." "May I have a word with yor, Mr. Greene?" began the young man. "Certainly you may," said the Wall street father. "I want you to decide a bet." "Very good. Go on." "I want to marry your daughter." "Tut-tut, sir." "But wait. Your daughter has bet me that you will give your consent to our marriage and I have bet her that you will not. Now, you certainly would not want to decide a bet so that she would lose; now would you?"—Yonkers Statesman. To Insure Prompt Service.

So here we are presenting Mrs. Chas. Carl of 3115 Amherst avenue, Des Moines, Iowa. Under the rays of our searchlight she was first found at Carley's Department store as shipping clerk and we find that she has held that position for several years and a few days ago she resigned voluntarily. At the present time she is manager of the pastry making department at Younker Brothers, one of the largest stores in the city. In this line instead of getting people outside of her race as assistants she has brought in two other colored women, so many people forget when they have an opportunity to do something for other members of their race to do—sanely without fear she sets an example that is worthy of being followed by others. Mrs. Carl is also a member of the Eastern Star a popular women organization and a member of St. Paul A. M. E. Also a member of the Crusade organization. My motto is that of "Doing all I can for others," said she. Truly, if a person lives an unquestionable life he or she has contributed much to the world and if other things are done additional it is truly worthy of commendation.

The Turkey's Story Told by Himself While the eagle has been given first place as the "national bird," some people have thought that the turkey should have been accorded this place because it is in so general use on our national feast day, and because it had been domesticated by the Indians long before the discovery of America by Columbus. The name was given in error, as it was supposed to have come from Turkey, which it did not, the common turkey being native to North America. But let the turkey tell his own story: I can introduce myself as of the type vertebrate, because I have a back-bone. I am classed as a bird because I am an animal that dresses in feathers rather than in skin like men or to wear wool like sheep, hair like a horse's or fur like a bear. My order is gallinaceous, from a Latin word, meaning hen; and our order is sometimes called rasoes, also from the Latin, because we scratch for a living. We practice "the strenuous life" which others preach. My family is a large one, the Phasianidae, which includes most of the domestic fowls and also phasianas, grouse and quail—nearly 100 species in all. You notice that I have some jaw-breaking words in my scientific record, but my jaws are called mandibles, from a Latin word that means to chew, the upper and lower mandibles forming my bill. The whole opening of my mouth is called my gape (broad a, please,) and sometimes the rictus; but that word should always be restricted to the back corner of my mouth. You must have noticed how beautifully my neck is wattled. That word wattle is Old English and means a bag. The other name for my wattles, caruncle, comes from the Latin and means flesh. I go bareheaded, but wear a great many feathers from my neck down to my tibia. Everybody's leg below the knees (including yours and mine) has two bones, of which one is the tibia. My tibia is feathered. Below that is the tarsus (Greek—heel in vertebrates, the joint that bends back, while the knee-joint bends forward), and this tarsus is bare of feathers, but covered with big scales. I wouldn't dare pronounce all the long words that go with this part of my anatomy, but it may be interesting for you to go turkey-hunting in the dictionary for "sculated" and related wards. Look for "drumstick" and see why it is called "tibia-tarsus." While on my feet and legs I'd better tell you something of my toes, of which I have four, besides the spur, this fast-named weapon being mercifully denied to the females of our family. My first toe grows out in a seemingly awkward way behind the spread of my foot; but it is really a convenience when I want to clutch anything, as, for instance, the branch of the tree where I generally roost. This toe is two-jointed and called the hallux. The second toe, the inner front one, is three-jointed; the third or middle one has four joints, and the fourth or outer one has five joints. Now, when you prepare me for the oven don't throw away my lower legs and feet, but clean them thoroughly with a brush and warm water, to which you have added a pinch of soda. Lay in cold water after a generous rinsing, and when you start the fire to roast my carcass put my legs (the tautus only) and feet into a basin, cover with cold water and let them sit where they will simmer until the roast is done—when you have a foundation or stock for the most delicious broth. I could tell you how the chicken soup trade began in Washington Market with a poor woman who utilized what the marketmen threw away, only to buy back from her in the form of a bowl of steaming hot soup, for which they each paid her a dime—and she became rich from this humble beginning. My "giblets," too (heart, liver and glizzard), are used by the thrifty housewife, who chops them fine after cooking them in the dripping pan with the "bird," and then adds them to the already rich gravy for "home consumption." My glizzard is a sort of mill where my food is crushed, being the second or true stomach, after being softened in the first one, the "crop," In the lower part of the neck. My wishbone has a longer name, furculum, from the Latin word that means fork. The meaning is obvious. As to my plumage, first are the "contour feathers." These give outline color and are ornamental appendages. These feathers are moved by muscles which are located under the skin, give me a chance to "spread myself" by brushing the ground with my wings, erecting my body and tail feathers until I seem twice my usual size while strutting about and uttering my "gobble." That word, by the way, is Old English. A Mr. Business Man —That vexing QUESTION answered —that business problem solved —directly, accurately and instantaneously. THE ADVERTISING PROBLEMS All advertisers are confronted with three big PROBLEMS. Briefly they are: (1) WHEN shall I advertise! (2) Where shall I advertise! (3) How shall I advertise! The BYSTANDER, a paper that reaches thousands of colored people in Des Moines, thousands in Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Mississippi, Nebraska and other states, is the mouth-piece through which they speak to YOU.— (1) Advertise when we get our money or the most of it, that is about Saturday—let us know that you want our TRADE. Keep advertising in our paper THE BYSTANDER. (2) Advertise in all the papers but don't forget we will investigate and buy when you advertise in THE BYSTANDER. Why? because, it lets us know you want our DOLLARS and are willing to spend something to get them. We buy good things as well as other people; we will buy from you, if you will advertise in our paper. (3) First, advertise regularly, attractively and everything that is sellable to anyone, because you can't tell what or when we buy.

When the envelope moves forward while ‘dropping, the center of air pressure shifts forward, the front edge is forced up, and thé envelope upsets (Fig. 2). ‘To make the envelope into a glider that will not upset; {t becomes neces- sary to shift the center of gravity to ®@ point which will coincide with the ‘center of pressure. This can be done by’ adding weight to the forward edge. ‘Try a paper clip (Fig, 3). If with this in place the envelope darts head-on to the ground, the clip is too heavy, and has caused the center of gravity to shift beyond the center of pressure we: e (2"s. 8). Slide the clip back and forth Until the Weight is ao adjusted that the envelope glider will first dip nose down for * distance, then straighten up and glide horizontally (Fig. 4). Af an alr current strikes the. envel- ope sidewise, it -will cause the center of pressure to shift‘and the envelops to upset’ Bend alohg the center eo the ends will tit up (Fig. 5) and this anger will be lessened.
