Not be forgotten that the nine nations run officially, may represent the present day do not represent, by many millions all the world.

THINGS TO ACCOUNT.
Said M. Briend, in pleading for the well being of his nation, to have peace in the world, there "must be a moral disamament." He was speaking of Germany in particular, but the same principle holds true with reference to lynching in the south, or anywhere else. The big question after all is said and done is this: Are the hearts of the people right?
It must not be forgotten that the nine nations represented at the conference officially, may represent the present powers of the earth, but they do not represent, by many millions, th physical possibilities of all the world. Japan knows this, and China is not forgetting it.
One of the Japanese visitors addressed a mass meeting of Colored Americans the other night at the Metropolitan Baptist church, colored, and he brought a message of great sifinificence to those who heard him. He told of the importance of all the colored races of the world pulling together for the best things of life. He, as we, recognizes the fact rising tide of color has not reached its zenith.
English delegates are deeply concerned about conditions in India. There has been considerable inside discussion of the attitude displayed there towards the Prince of Wales' visit.
Brookhaven, Miss., Dec. 1.—Four well-behaved colored workmen of the Illinois Central railroad were accosted by a masked white man near the Merchants Grocery Company and warned that they had only three days more to work, with the result that they did not return to their employment the next day. The four had been in the railroad's employ for periods varying from five to twenty-one years respectively.
Little Rock, Ark., Dec. 1.—According to information received Robert Hicks, colored, about twenty-five years old was lynched last Wednesday beside the public highway, four miles southeast of Lake Village, because of a note he wrote to a young white woman.
According to the reports, Hicks went to the girl's home Wednesday and asked if she had received his note. Men waiting seized the Negro, took him about four miles away and riddled his body with bullets.
Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 1.—Mayor James L. Key has vetoed the ordinance passed by council last Monday forbidding the joint worship of whites and Negroes in Atlanta churches.
The mayor's veto message declared the ordinance "will and does invade that which is a matter of conscience with a great many people" and would cause a great deal more trouble and irritation than it would allay."
Manila, P. I., Dec. 1.—Philippine leaders are considering the advisability of placing before the armament conference the question of Philipine independence, hoping an agreement could be had among the powers to guarantee the islands territory integrity should independence be granted.

The big-hearted and good natured Elks will stage a big minstrel at the Auditorium at Fourth and Grand avenue. For the benefit of the orphans and unfortunate kiddies in making Christmas merry and happy for them. The Elks always put things over. It is good to be an Elk.
Meanwhile, up in Bob's room, Barbara was busily putting things straight, spreading clean linen on the bed, arranging the cover on the dresser, seeing that the smoking table was supplied with matches and trays for Bob's ever-present pipe, and generally making things fresh and sweet for the reception of her hero. For Barbara, Bob was a good deal of a hero, though she would hardly have confessed it, even to herself.
She attacked the dresser last of all, intending to take out of the drawers any odds and ends that might be in them and leave space for shirts, collars and other articles of masculine apparel.
The big lower drawers were empty, and beyond a quick glance in search of truant dust she did nothing to them; but one of the small top draw-

GOVERNOR AS AN AUTOCRAT.
Porto Rico, Dec. 1.—A demonstration of persons opposed to the Porto Rican administration of Governor E. Mont Reilly was broken up here by police reserves when the governor landed from the steamer Tanamou. Banners carried in the crowd referred to the governor as an "autoceral" to Porto Rico as "America's Ireland" and to the Reilly administration as "mongrel rule." A fire in the hold of the ship, extinguished during the voyage, was blamed on Porto Ricans by some of the ship's officers.
TOO MUCH LIVING CAUSE H. C. L.
Moose Heart, Ill., Dec. 1.—Too much living may have something to do with the high cost of living, Secretary of Labor Davis intimated here in making public bureau statistics showing that the average American eats more than a ton of food a year. "The exact amount," he said, "is 2,664 pounds per annum. In footing up the cost of living, there's one thing we've got to remember—we certainly don't stint ourselves."
MODERN DAY MIRACLES
(Told in Eight Sketches)
By JOHN RAYMOND
THE AGE OF CHEMISTRY
Within the last few years the world has been electrified by the vast strides made in the field of science by the creative chemist. Indeed, within a generation the influence exerted upon the entire fabric of our civilization from within the laboratory has been so enormous that we are prepared at last to accept the oft-repeated statement that we have passed beyond the age of machinery and have entered into the more mysterious age of chemistry.
agencies developed secretly in chemical laboratories.
A
We who are not chemists hear strange tales these days, no less strange because they are true, of rubies and amber, ornamented with burning silks, colors of every hue, and exotic perfumes—once the precious cargo of
What this new era is to bring forth in the way of scientific discovery rests upon conjecture, but certainly, the miracles performed in the last half century have been sufficient to warrant almost any expectancy.
desert caravans—produced from a substance as ordinary as coal tar. Truly, chemistry has descended into the depths of the earth and extracted the secret formula of nature. The modern researcher, by constant diligence and untiring effort, has performed the mysteries which kept the alchemist of other centuries groping in the dark and branded him as one allied with the devil himself. The researcher, in finding in coal tar, not only things of beauty, but remedies for most human ills, has outdreamed the alchemist by transforming a base substance into something far more precious than gold.
America has heard that Germany's chemists saved her from an early disastrous defeat, both in the field and in the matter of obtaining supplies. Without the tremendous expansion of her plants for the production of nitrates and ammonia from the air by processes developed by her great chemists the war, without question, would have ended years before it did, as a result of the exhaustion of Germany's explosives, if not from the exhaustion of her food supplies because of the lack of fertilizer for her fields. So great, in fact, have been the accomplishments in the last few years that scientists now declare that a nation without applied chemistry will be "defenseless in war and laggards in peace."
From this black, sticky mass he adorns M'lady with colors rivalling nature itself in their barbaric splendor. He distills perfumes that equal the jasmine and he makes terrifying gases that one day will make war unthinkable. Thousands of articles upon which we depend, from TNT to paving blocks, from attar of roses to fertilizer, and from illumination gas to royal purple, are derived from the same substance.
Previouslyunheard of scientific feats have been reported from the laboratory, but because of necessity, they were performed so quietly they were robbed of their glamor and their trappings of romance while lesser achievements on the field of battle and in the council chambers of diplomats have been hailed by throngs.
As recently as 1700 a man who dared to say that he could produce a ruby from a lump of coal would have been accused of practicing the black art and doubles would have ended his career at the stake. In three centuries we have gone far. To-day we accept these miracles but few of us know how the miracles are wrought. And yet there is no mystery.
Those of us who have left the classroom and the study hall far behind find it difficult, lacking technical knowledge, to comprehend this swift transition from one era to another, an amazing period when the nations of the world are making serious plans to scrap their worthless armies and navies, depending for protection entirely upon the subtle but deadly
A
The succeeding sketches will show how the accidental discovery of an English boy at work in a laboratory in 1850 started the development of creative chemistry, and will tell how it is possible to produce a silk purse, a bottle of perfume, the colors of the rainbow, a variety of medicines, foodstuffs and poisons, all from the same material.

ARTISTS IN RECITAL.
Mrs. Florence Cole-Talbert, famous lyric soprano, and Clyde L. Glass, noted pianist and composer will appear in recital at St. Paul's A. M. E. church, Tuesday evening, Dec. 6, under the auspices of Aida court. All the colored fraternities of Des Moines are invited by Aida Court to assist in paying homage to these two great artists. They will be here in the interest of the Malecolm Griffith Memorial Fund to be used for the support and development of Negro talent, to assist with poverty in the public schools, and other philanthropic activities. Mrs. Cole-Talbert was winner of the diamond medal in 1916 at the Chicago university of music, and represented her class at the commencement exercises singing "Caro Nome" in Italian, accompanied by the Chicago Symphony orchestra. Clyde L. Glass is a graduate of the Boston Conservatory of music, and was formerly a Des Moines boy and is a favorite. The fraternities of the city in their regala will present a myriad of color and far eastern orientalism. They will open the evening with their hall songs. Mrs. Talbert and Mr. Glass have been invited to sing before other local organizations in the city during their short stay, and their coming is heralded as the greatest musical event of the season. The old ladies of the Protection Home have been especially invited as well as poor children who could not otherwise enjoy so splendid a treat: Aida Court in white dress and fex will act as ushers. Little Gloria Griffin will present the artists with flowers. The stage will be appropriately decorated with fraternity colors. Come out and help this worthy cause. The trustees of this fund will be the members of Aida Court and representatives from the various fraternities.

Lowry has not been called upon to
take the lead and worry about the
financial end of the proposition. ‘The

Since thc summer, wnen he had
saved Mrs. Halden’s ttle savings and
her home from the clutches of a grasp
ing syndicate of real estate sharks,
he had been lke a son to the good
woman. She had let him do very
much as he pleased around the house
and-had even hinted at his paying ne
board, but Bob had insisted on giving
her what be termed a ridiculously in-
adequate sum each month.
‘When success brought him fame and
fortune he had refused to take up oth-

the home cooking and the home asso-
ciations of the little brown house near
the edge of the town more. than: he
could ever like the garish splendors
of a hotel or the loneliness of bach-
elor’ apartments.
For the past two months he had

“Yes, you tell him,” sald the third

“Well,” said the first Red Berry,

“Only today,” agreed the second Red

“Well, the person who was talking
spoke of her little girl and of how

“‘She was really tired out, said
the person, ‘but now she looks so well

And she looks just as brown as a

“‘Just as brown as a berry she

“What we cannot understand,” said
the first Red Berry, “is how a persod

—Paui's Ministry in Rome.
1. The Shipwrecked Crew on Melltr
(vv. 1-10).
Through the storm they lost thelf
bearfngs, and when they were safe on
Tond they learned that the island was
called Melita,
1. The hospitable reception of the
natives (v. 2). They built a fre and
made them as comfortable as possible
from the cold and the rain..
2. Paul gathering sticks for a fire (v.
8). This ts a fine picture of the world’s
greatest preacher and missionary not
above picking up sticks for a fire. The
ability and disposition to serve natu-
rally in whatever way 1s the evidence
of capacity for great commissions.
3. Paul bitten by a venomous ser-
pent (v. 8). With the sticks that Paul
gathered there was a serpent, Per-
haps it had already curled itself up,
for its winter steep, but when the
warmth of the fire aroused it it darted
at Paul and fixed its fangs upon his
hand. ‘The natives expected to see him
fall down dead, yet he shook it off,
nothing harmed. At first the natives
concluded that he was an escaped
murderer and that thts was retributive
justice belng meted out to him. When
they saw. that he was unharmed they
concluded that he was a god.
4, Paul heals Publius’ father (vy. 7-
10). These people are now getting
some return for their kindness. When
this man of note was healed others
came also and were healed. To this
they responded in appreciation by load-
ing them down with necessary sup-
plies.
11. Paul Arrives at Rome (vv. 11-16).
When Paul landed at Rome Christ's
charge to the disciples was fulfilled.
After three months’ stay at Melita,
Paul departs for Rome in the ship Al-
exandria, whose sign was Castor and
Pollux. At Syracuse they were de-
layed three days, perhaps for favora-
ble winds, At Puteoli he found breth-
ren, at whose request he tarried seven
days. At Appfli-Foram and at the Three
Taverns brethren from Rome met him.
From Puteoli the news went before
Paul's coming, and go interested were
the brethren that they came more
than forty miles to meet him. This
greatly encouraged him, for which he
gave God thanks, No one, perhaps,
ever enjoyed more close fellowship
with God, and yet no man ever en-
Joyed more and derived ‘more benefit
from human fellowship than he, His
readiness to preach the gospel at
Rome, which he had expressed in the
Epistle to the Romans, written from
Corinth about three years before, was
now realized. He was treated with
great leniency at Rome, for he was
allowed to hire a house there and live
alone except that the soldier that re-
malned his: guard was constantly with
him. Being chained to a soldier was
rather irksome, but yet it gave him a
chance to preach to the soldiers which
he could not have had any,other way.
He rejoiced in whatever circumstances,
just so the gospel was preached.
iil. Paul’s Ministry In Rome (rv,
17-81). =
1. His conference with the leading
Jews (vv. 17-22). He did not, as
usual, walt for the ‘Sabbath day to
speak to the Jews, He only allowed
one day forrest. His object was to
have a fair understanding with them.
When they came he endeavored to
conciliate them. He told them that,
though he came as a prisoner, he was
not a erinmnal. ‘Though his own
countrymen had so sought his life, he
did. not come with an ‘accusation
‘against them. ‘The result of this inter-
view was that the Jews cautiously
took neutral ground, but expressed’a
desire to hear what Paul could say-in
defense of a sect’ which was every-
where spoken against. The fact that
this sect was spoken against is no evi-
dence that it was wrong. Many times
a thing may be wrong in men's minds,
Decause their Judgments are biased, If
a thing is right in the sight of God it
matters not what men think about it.
2, Paul expounding the kingdom of
God and persuading concerning Jesus
(wv. 23-31). He polnted ont a reat
kingdom—the Messiacie Kingdom with

Mrs. Effie Guinn, 944 Fourteenth street place, was called to Kansas-City last Wednesday night by the serious illness of his mother.
Mr. Vril Coleman from Carney, Iowa was in the city and made a call at the Bystander and wished the Bystander well by words of expression and financial support.
Rev. W. H. Griffin, pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. church, V. L. Jones, undertaker and Mr. Spencer Mayweather made a flying trip via auto to Pella, Monroe and Oskaloosa at which latter place they were guests to Mrs. Robert Johnson at a raoon dinner. The trip while thrilling, was completed without accident.
The Shriners ball was considered one of the largest and most unique affairs ever held in Des Moines. All were out in their full dress. The Shriners really do big things in a big way in Des Moines. You ought to be a Shriner.
Dr. A. W. Hackley, P. E. and Rev. W. H. Griffin were visitors at the By-ender office this week.
Dr. Hackley reports the church work on the upward trend throughout the district. The people in almost every charge are pleased with their pastors, new and old.
Mr. Raymond Dysart, one of our successful young men, has just returned from the west and reports a very splendid trip, having traveled with the Snee Synapcored Jazz band. He has started his musical career again with his famous synapcored orchestra and is now open for engagements.

St. Paul A. M. E. Ch.
REV. W. H. GRIFFIN, Pastor
The raw atmosphere and the threatening appearance of the elements, all failed to chill the ardor of the younger ones of our school for their classes as evidence of this there was a hundred and thirty present which is about an average attendance. We wish we knew some word or words forceful enough and broad enough to express our gratitude to our many friends and co-workers who came willingly to our relief during our effort on the 19th and 21st to raise funds for our usual Christmas program which will be carried out Dec. 24. The program committee will be headed by Mrs. G. G. Nichols.
Since the year is drawing so near a close it might not be out of place here and now to thank the splendid corps of officers, teachers and friends who have worked so faithfully with me these two years. May you live long and prosper.-J. L. Edwards, superintendent.
The Christian Endeavor society of the St. Paul A. M. E. church is certainly doing all in their power to reach its zenith.
The society is now a triangular one and we are waiting an opportunity to make it four square. But we believe with the hearty co-operation of the officers of the society and parents of the children together with support of church and friends that the C. E. societies, the young peoples movements at large will be moving in one solid phalanx for God in Des Moines and that their influence will be felt world-wide. Mrs. Zora Ewing is president of the seniors, Mr. Raymond Wyatt is president of the intermediate and Master Alfred Shepard is president of the juniors. The inter-department is also superintended by Mrs. Geo. H. Mason, a very proficient leader and is loved by all. Mrs. Thomas Carl is superintendent of the junior department. The attendance is large and discussions interesting. Very splendid programs are rendered in connection with the topic each evening thereby infusing pep in the meetings.
We are thankful for a pastor whose support is untiring. He loves his young people and the young people love him. Come and hear us, we are glad to have you. The prayer meeting and look out committees are always on the job.

Daddy's Evening
Fairy Tale
MARY GRAHAM BONNER
COPYRIGHT BY WESTERN NEWSPaper UNION
"For some reason or other," said the Tree, "part of my leaves are red. They've changed color much earlier than usual this season.
XII
"If the truth were known, and I see no reason why the truth should not always be known, I think those leaves got mixed up. They began to hurry too much. It is as bad sometimes to hurry too much as it is not to hurry enough.
"So Bright."
"These leaves hurried so fast they began to think they must be changing their color for the early fall season and then they found out that they were ahead of time and that they would have to wait for the other leaves to catch up to them.
"They hurried too much, you see. They hurried too much!"
"But the rest of the leaves didn't hurry like that. And so they are still green. You have been wondering, Star, why part of me was red while the other part was green.
"I'm like a lady who wears a dark dress and a bright-red hat! That's what I think I am like, anyway."
Now the tree stood upon a very high hill and a bright star up in the sky was talking to the tree.
"You are so very bright, Star," said the Tree. "You are like a golden star."
"Ah," said the Star, "I did well in my sky lessons. That is why I look so bright."
"What do you mean, whatever in the world do you mean?" asked the Tree.
"You must ask me whatever in the sky do I mean?" twinkled the Star.
"Well, whatever in the sky do you mean?" asked the Tree. "I didn't know there were sky lessons," the Tree added.
"Oh, yes," said the Star, "there are sky lessons, and those of us who are so very bright have done well in our lessons and so we look bright.
"Creatures who do well in their lessons look bright, as a rule, you know. We've had lessons in brightness and I'm at the head of the sky class. There are some other very bright stars, you'll notice, and they have done well in their sky lessons, too."
"I see," said the Tree. "I see."
"There are many bright people," said the Star, "and I love to smile down upon them and tell them how much I admire them.
"There is a dear little lady who is very bright and who knows all about flowers. It think it is very sensible too, to know a lot about flowers.
"She speaks to every flower by name. Every rose she calls by its right name. And she knows the different flowers as they're growing up out of the ground from their seeds without having to look at the marking on the sticks to see which flowers are which!
"She gives flowers to people who come to see her, and is so generous with her beloved posts. People call her Auntie Scott, but the flowers call her Dear Lady, and how they do love her."
