Grand Lodge at Dothan, Alabama Chicago, Illinois, August 21.—I am just in receipt of a letter from Secretary R. B. Hudson, Selma, of the National Baptist convention, informing me that a round trip rate of one and one half fare has been granted by all passenger associations and the only thing necessary if you are going to attend the National Baptist convention in Nashville, Tenn., is to write Secretary Hudson and he will send you the certificates which will authorize the agent to sell you round trip. It is absolutely necessary to have the certificate to get the benefit of the rate. Speaking of National Baptist convention, it is just over the fence now and before you can say "scat" good, the time of meeting will be right here. It is going to be a great big success and the people from all parts of the country will be there to take part and to see what we are doing for ourselves and for the race. Special trains are being made up, special parties. They will just take Nashville. I expect to be there and will be there on time. As I sit myself down in a chair and ink and paper on the table and pen in hand to write you a few lines this week, I am in the big city of Chicago ready for the opening of the National Negro Business League. They are going to talk something about silver this week, I think they call it silver jubilee, and I have been trying to get me some silver to wear, and the best I could do was to get hold of a silver dollar, and I am afraid to wear it open in Chicago, so I will just keep it in my pocket and sing, "Silver Jubilee is Here and I Have My Sheer." I have just returned from Dothan, Alabama, where I was with the Grand Court of Calanthe and the Grand Lodge of Knights of Pythias. I was the special guest of the Calanthe, and believe me when I tell you our women certainly did give me a great big time, and I mingled with the Pythians. This seems to be the age of unrest, and it was found there. They just had a time that will go down in history, for it was not all sunshine, because clouds and even storms broke out there among the brethren. Some had warm speeches in their constitution and it was necessary to get them off and when they got them off it was soon over. When I wrote that other letter I was looking at the big meeting here in Chicago—the meeting in which Mrs. Mary McLeod Bethune from way down in Florida, was elected president, and all others fell in line. They will hold the next session in 1926 in Oakland, California, and if you want to be in line you will have to go to Oakland, and I am sure you will. I will tell you about it from time to time. These women are doing things and I like to take off my hat to them. Miss Hallie Quinn Brown retired. With a chicken lunch in a box, and other things to go with it, the Rev. Fountain W. Penick, superintendent of missions of the Baptists of Illinois, called with his automobile car carriage and toted me down to the stable of the Chicago and Eastern Illinois so that I could start for Alabama. But little time was lost in this matter, and SUBSCRIPTION PRICE TWELVE MONTHS. $1.50 soon that old iron horse was snorting and grunting. All day and all night and at 3:40 the next day, I found myself right in the stable of the L. & N. in Birmingham, Ala. But, I reached Nashville Saturday morning and found the Rev. Dr. J. C. Caldwell, of that city, the editorial secretary of the African Methodist Episcopal Church Sunday School Union, and will in 1928 be one of the bishops of the church. He was right there with a big chicken lunch for me with the compliments of his wife. He also had a large bag of fruit, oranges, peaches and pears. I had another big time. At Birmingham, there was H. H. Glover, awaiting my arrival and he escorted me out to the home of Mrs. Carrie A. Tuggle, the great leader of women. I enjoyed being in her home. Remained Saturday and Sunday, but Monday morning bright and early I got myself together and made it to Dothan, Alabama, where the Grand Lodge and the Grand Court met. Mrs. Fannie Cosby Blevins had gone on ahead and had things in apple pie order. She met us at the stable and I was assigned to my place of abode during my stay in town. It was a nice home, and the main member of the family, Mrs. Jones was some distance away from the main building. There was something doing there. We went to bed Monday night, but Tuesday morning when the Grand Lodge and Grand Court met things were in good shape. Mrs. Tuggle is certainly loved by the women of Alabama—in fact the women of America love her. She is a woman with a vision, and a woman whose whole life is devoted to the salvation of the youth. She declares that it is cheaper to save a boy or girl than it is to reform a man or woman. Strike them in youth. She says, "As you bend the twig, so will the tree incline." She is a philosopher, and a woman who makes friends. She has not been well for some time and is was remarkable to see how the women tried to make it easy for her. They put down money when called for, took the school burden off of her mind by putting down the money to pay off some of the pressing bills, and they told her to go take a rest. When it comes to taking care of herself, she is so devoted to the work until she is just hardheaded. Let me here pause to drop a flower where H. H. Glover can take a smell of it, because he is a well-trained young man, and is standing right by Mrs. Tuggle. He is just aiding her in her work. I would call him a kind of private secretary. He looks into every detail and has been a relief to her. God bless you Herbert, and may all the little Herberts follow in your footsteps. The administration of Grand Chancellor Blount had been a success, and you know it means fight to succeed, hence there were men who had declared that he should die, and all of his cabinet, so they had affidavits, and every other kind of davits, but he was prepared with facts and figures and the cash to back it up, so their fight went to nothing, just like one I saw in Fort Worth last June. You see, when a fellow wants a job, he believes that he should kill the man who has accomplished something instead of going and digging a place for himself instead of a grave for his friend. I am sure that Grand Chancellor Blount has learned a lesson. I admire the wonderful ability of W. S. Willis, the Grand Chancellor of Texas, J. W. Jones, of North Carolina, and Dr. S. H. Thompson, of Kansas. Dr. Jones and Dr. Thompson, are physicians, Willis is a layman, and Blount is a layman. By the side of Blount is to be found a physician, Dr. U. G. Mason, and I would place by the side CITY Kansas City, Kansas, of Dr. Jones, J. M. Avery—men have friends and they are of worth. In Dothan were men of ability, of worth, of standing and of character. I wish I could just see some of them and tell you more about them, but this is not possible now, and you will please excuse me. The meeting lasted until Friday and then they closed Friday morning and decided to meet next year in Tuscaloosa. I congratulate the Pythians on the good work they are doing, but when it comes to transacting business and going home North Carolina takes the lead, and then follows Illinois. I saw them open Grand Lodge of North Carolina at noon Tuesday, and their business was all over and men left for home 4 o'clock Wednesday, and they had lots of business to look over. This is an age of work. Editor Oscar W. Adams, of the Birmingham Reporter, was elected vicegrand chancellor, and he is a busy man. I had the pleasure of meeting the most writingest woman of our race, Mrs. F. C. Blevins, and there is the woman who holds the money, Mrs. J. E. Cowling, of Birmingham—no she is of Montgomery. I wish I could tell you many others who were there and I had the pleasure of seeing them. But in the midst of glee we must pause now and then to remind our friends that death is getting in its work and in so doing it does not make any distinction. Into the best homes, and calls for some of the best in the home, in the family and in the race. This time it stepped into the home of Berry O'Kelly, of Method, North Carolina, and conveyed to her eternal home, Mrs. Marion O'Kelly White, the wife of A. Thomas White, the man has been with Mr. O'Kelly for so many years. She had lingered for six long months, until one day death entered and said to her, "I came to relieve you of your suffering, that you may go home to be with Jesus." She had but to fold her arms, close her eyes and return to the God who had given her to us. During her life she was devoted to her husband and three sons—the sons are small boys, but they are left in the hands of a father who will give them all possible care. As her body was being lowered into the grave, the choir from the A. M. E. church at Method, sang, "Asleep in Jesus, Blessed Sleep." God hath given her to the world and He hath taken her away, and we can but bow saying to the husband and sons, "Some day we shall join her." Shape your lives looking forward to that time. C. B.

CITIZEN'S FORUM The Citizens' Forum with Dr. Bronson as president, has made out a whole year's program of speakers. It will open September 21 at Metropolitan Temple and the Governor will be the principal speaker. Mr. and Mrs. Richardson entertained the following guests, Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Roswell, Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Kimble, Miss Cecelia Rosell and the guest of honor, Miss Loretta Alexander of Bogue, Kansas, with a dinner party Tuesday evening at their home at Fourteenth and Barnett. FOR RENT—A neat, modern kitchette. 934 Washington boulevard. Fifield 3759M. Tornado and Cyclone The tornado may be regarded as a concentrated cyclone as it covers only a small area. It is generally much more destructive of life and property; its track is narrow and its course short; and it usually occurs in the summer months. A cyclone may cover hundreds of square miles and may occur at any time. Both are bodies of air in a definite whirl about a central point. The tornado is usually heralded by a funnel-shaped cloud. While a tornado effects great destruction, as in Omaha in 1913, a cyclone may produce only heavy rainstorms over a large area. Paris After Dinner Establishment of an after-dinner express at 100 miles an hour between London and Paris is now being planned by the Imperial Airways, Ltd. This will enable business men to dine after a day's work in London and get to Paris at bedtime. A service of big planes with comfortable sleeping berths, travelling at night between London and Distant European capitals, also is planned by the company.

Between Friends At a Red Cross hog sale held down in Arkansas, generously disposed people donated porkers for the occasion. Pink Jackson brought along his favorite pig, and remarked to Green Reeves, a man of jokes, that his swine must bring at least $10. Otherwise he would take it home. Green agreed to bid up and see that the animal brought the required amount. Accordingly, when the animal was put on the block, Jackson bid first, offering $5; Reeves raised it to $6, and then in turn Jackson to $7, Reeves to $2 and Jackson to $5, finally Reeves to $5.0. Jackson, knowing that the 50-cent bid was Reeves' limit, said, "Let him have the pig!" Reeves nearly fell into a faint, but came across all right, remarking as he took the pig: "You can't trust a friend, nohow!" —Cartoons Magazine. Paper-Box Industry In 1800 the manufacture of paper boxes was a staple industry and 50 years later there were 82 factories in the United States, says the International Confectioner. In 1860 machinery began to be developed, but up to that time everything was done by hand. In 1869 the total sales were slightly more than $1,000,000, manufactured in 249 plants, employing about 4,700 people. In 1879 the product had advanced to $7,500,000, and in 1910 the output was valued at $55,000,000. In 1919, which was the last survey made of the industry, it showed a remarkable growth. The capital invested was $57,000,000 and the value of the product $125,000,000; people employed, 57,000. These figures are for the set-up box industry only. # seals, e drive s capture Not on when t kill for the wa mouse. salmon declare. W --- L. H. Hutton, who spent some time with the Angami and Sema Nagas tribes of head hunters, tells in the Pathfinder Magazine of the method in which the heads of the victims are decorated and divided. In addition to complete skulls adorned with mithan or buffalo horns, or with wooden imitations of these, many huts have trophies in which the skull is only partly human, the head hunter having only salvaged part of the head. In such cases the rest of the head is fashioned of wood or the skull of some animal, generally a pig, while in other cases the missing parts are ingeniously fabricated from skulls of the black gibbon. The object in decorating the skull with horns is said to prevent the dead warrior from hearing the call of his friends searching for him, as, if his soul were to go to them, it would instigate them to revenge, whereas if it remains with its captor it lures its late relatives to put themselves within reach of the possessor of the head and lose their own to him as well. Some Ao villages string the skull of one of their dogs above the skull of the enemy. The soul of the dog is believed to bark and thus lure relatives of the victim to the scene to be slain. AIR POCKETS NOT CAUSE OF DISASTER An air pocket is not a dangerous condition in the air in these days. You often read in the newspapers that a plane was caught in an air pocket and the pilot was killed because he could not get out of it. That is not true, asserts Lieut. Col. W. G. Shauffler, Jr., in Adventure Magazine. Air pockets are merely up-and-down air currents which are very much like ocean waves. You will find in flying that you have "smooth" days and "rough" days. The modern high-powered, high-speed plane goes through these air waves very much as a fast ocean liner cuts through the water. The thing that happens when a pilot is thrown into a "spin" or a "stall" is that he loses flying speed, and in so doing does not have the driving force behind him to carry him to safety. If he is high enough he will be safe, for the plane will drop into a dive, the slip-stream will act on the controls and the plane will again be under control. Careless pilots, obsolete planes and low flying cause most of the deaths, and not air pockets. Hair Seals Live on Salmon Destruction of one-sixth to one-third of the average spring salmon pack in the Fraser river by hair seals, has caused Vancouver fishermen to fear the fish will become extinct and a large revenue be lost. So clever are the seals that it is a race between them and the fishermen every time a bobbing cork on the net shows that a salmon has struck it, the Detroit News says. The seals generally win. Wolf-like, a seal goes for the throat of a fish, and usually a head is all that is left in the net. Fishermen have tried spreading a "blind" net, to protect the actual fishing net, but the seals, evidently learning the trick, drive salmon into the net to make capture easier. Not only do seals live on salmon, but when their hunger is appeased they kill for sport, tossing the fish out of the water as a cat plays with a mouse. A seal can throw a 30-pound salmon clear of the water, fishermen declare. Book titles are often deceptive, and Mr. George Birmingham tells with a chuckle how a man once confided to him that he had bought a copy of his novel, "The Lost Lawyer." In the belief that it would save him many a six-and-eightpence. Then there is the story of the dear old lady who, after buying a copy of "If Winter Comes," took it back to the shop and asked them to change it, "I thought it might contain some recipes for cleaning up smuts, and hints about fires," she explained. Another story of this kind is that of the diplomat's wife who, attracted by the words "Guide to India" on the back of a book, bought it for her husband as a birthday present. It turned out to be Volume V. of a famous encyclopedia covering subjects from "Guide" to "India." Wanted two men roomers. Have two nicely furnished rooms at rea- sonable rent. MRS. J.

MEMBER NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. LIGHT AND POWER AT SMALL EXPENSE A new type of windmill enables residents in the country to obtain electric light and power at practically no cost for upkeep and maintenance. The wheel is supported by a single spar, which is pivoted at the lower end. Erection is very easy, and also repairs, etc., as the whole structure and wheel can be swung down to the ground, says the Scientific American. The construction of the wheel is novel; a wire wheel similar to a cycle wheel forms the backbone, to which curved steel blades are attached. The dynamo is housed in a weather-proof casing and mounted close to the wheel, a chain drive effecting the connection. The entire top is pivoted on a vertical spindle and swings around as the wind alters its direction. The supporting spar is a light lattice girder and held by three stays. The bracing pieces of the spar form a ladder, by means of which the top can be reached for inspection, etc. The bottom bolt, to which the mast foot is pivoted, is anchored in a small concrete block. By means of a special hand-control, the wheel can be stopped, started or regulated from the ground. British Navy Older Than Its Land Force The British navy is always spoken of as the "senior branch of the service," and correctly so, because as a national means of state-controlled defense, it antedates the army by many centuries. The armies of Englishmen that fought on the Continent during the Middle ages were raised, not by the country, but by separate lords. Under the old feudal system, each landowner held his estates on the condition that in case of need, he should furnish so many men and lead them to the king's aid. So that an English army of those days was made up of many privately owned contingents. It was not till the middle of the Sixteen Hundreds that an English national army came into existence and it did not develop its modern form till fifty years later. Against this, England as a nation possessed her own navy centuries earlier. In one sense it was founded by Alfred the Great in the times of the Saxons, and thenceforth all through history can be traced the national fleet. The admiralty and some of the royal dockyards were in existence a good century before the first appearance of a regular army. HEARD AND APPROVED Fancy and fear are worse than the pestilence. Yourself be good, a fig for your grandfather. To do the right is the best way to dodge the wrong. ! An empty head makes a sore heel— Proverbs of England. Who upon earth could live were all judged justly?—Byron. ! It is human nature to hate him whom you have injured. If Art makes us happler, that's all the justification Art needs. The destiny of nations depends upon what they eat—Proverbs of France. Any old actor who plays juvenile parts has to make up for lost time. When two women kiss it means no more than when two men shake hands. Great success of one of two friends is sometimes a severe strain on friendship. Marriage teaches a man a lot of things he wouldn't believe from hear-say. Majority may have its way, but it needn't think it is to escape hearing walls. Money usually opens the door to social advancement, though it occasionally closes it. Look before you leap. Many a man, who jumps at conclusions loses sight of the hurdles. Music is relative. A cowball is music to a man who has been mewed up in the city for a year. THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH Located Cor Eighth and Nebraska. C. E. BROOKS, Pastor. Parsonage 1111 N.

CHURCH NEWS Sunday was a great day at the First A. M. E. church. Pastor C. Edward Brooks filled the pulpit both morning and evening. At 11 a. m. he delivered a strong spiritual sermon and many Amen's and Hallelujah's went up in praise to God. There were two additions to the church. At 7:30 p. m. he delivered another strong and helpful sermon from St. Luke, 10th Chapter, 29th verse. Subject "Who Is My Neighbor."

Mrs. Alice M. Browne, one of the efficient Sunday School teachers of the First Church and District Superintendent of Sunday Schools, has returned from an extensive trip in the East. MT. OLIVE BAPTIST CHURCH REV. E. M. MOSELEY, Pastor. The friends and members of Mt. Olive who make up our congregation of religious worshippers, met early for a spiritual feast. The Sunday school had a good attendance and an instructive lesson, and the little ones enjoyed it. The pastor's text was Matthew 17: 1-5. Subject, "The transfiguration." He laid great stress on what is taught from Jesus' transfiguration, what it means to us, what it meant by the voice which fell from the cloud: "Hear ye Him." All enjoyed his discourse as well as learned a lesson. The night services were good and spiritual also. The pastor's text: Acts 16:20-22. Subject, "Christian's Trials Overcome." Three persons were added to the church. Great stress was put on St. Paul's energy in standing for the church. His discourse was good and sweet, and many enjoyed the blessings of the Holy Spirit. The Red Rose Club of King Solomon Baptist church rendered some sweet, harmonious music at our services. Come again, young men, we enjoyed it. Pray for our sick members. Come to our speaking meeting, August 24. You are welcome and may do something good for some one. Read the Advocate. The Trouble "I haven't seen you driving your car lately, is it broke?"

Pastor Bronson preached an intellectual sermon, after reading Jno. III 1-17. The 16th verse was emphasized most, "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that we might have a right to the tree of life." His preaching had great effect and when the choir sang "Let Jesus Come Into Your Heart," six joined, among them two candidates for Baptism. The two converts will be baptized later. Beautiful congregational songs, led by Mr. F. Fitchue were "My Soul Wants Something That's New," "It Pays to Serve Jesus," and "Everytime I Feel the Spirit." Pastor Bronson asked Mrs. M. C. Matthews to enroll names of graduates and ex-teachers, wishing to take Religious Educational training this fall. Deacons present were: Messrs. Thomas, S. L. Johnson, McCombs, J. Ford, Williams, Hulsey and Jennings, Mesdames F. Brent and Sawyers, of Des Moines, Iowa, were introduced to the congregation. The Sunday School and B. Y. P. U. were largely attended. At 8 p. m. many listened to another intellectual sermon. The choirs are granted a rest for a week. The collection was over $100. The Mission Circle was entertained Thursday at Mrs. Combs, near Grove's Centre. Next Sunday, August 24, Pastor Bronson will preach on the text "For God is a Spirit, and we must worship Him in Spirit and in truth." Come hear him. Metropolitan members welcome all. ALLEN CHAPEL A.

(L. 1923, ch. 211.) An Act relating to compensation for veterans of the war with Spain, the Philippine insurrection and the China relief expedition. Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Kansas: Section 1. There shall be submitted to a vote of the electors of this state at the general election to be held in the year 1924, the following act, which shall appear upon the ballot as "An act relating to compensation for veterans of the war with Spain, the Philippine insurrection and the China relief expedition," and the vote for and against such proposition shall be taken as provided by law. "An Act relating to compensation for veterans of the war with spain, the Philippine insurrection and the China relief expedition. "Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State of Kansas: "Section 1. The state of Kansas acknowledges its indebtedness to and promises to pay to each person, who was a resident of the state of Kansas at the time of entering the service, who served during the war with Spain or the Philippine insurrection, or the China relief expedition in any branch of the army, navy or marine corps of the United States prior to July 4, 1902, and who was honorably discharged therefrom, the sum of one dollar ($1) per day of his or her service during such period, which compensation shall be in addition to all pay and allowances made by the United States government; Provided, however, That no person shall receive more than six hundred dollars ($600) as his entire compensation under this act. "Sec. 2. No person shall receive any pay under this act for any service performed prior to the declaration of war with Spain by the United States government, or subsequent to July 4, 1902; and no person shall be entitled to receive compensation under the provisions of this act who did not declare the state of Kansas to be his or her place of residence at the time of his or her entering the service. "Sec. 3. The governor, secretary of state and state auditor are hereby authorized and directed to issue bonds of the state of Kansas in a sum not exceeding one million dollars ($1,000,-000), to provide funds for the purpose set out in section 1 hereof and to pay the expenses of the administration of this act: Provided, That such bonds may be issued in installments from time to time in such amounts and upon such terms as may be necessary to meet the payments of compensation as the same are allowed. Such bonds shall bear interest not to exceed five per cent (5%) , and such bonds or the portion thereof at any time issued shall be made payable at the treasury of the state of Kansas, or in the city of New York, such bonds shall be made payable in twenty-five (25) --- equal installments, the first of which shall be payable one (1) year after date of issue and the last of which shall be payable twenty-six (26) years after the date of issue, and they shall be sold to the highest bidder for not less than par; Provided, however, That the governor, secretary of state and state auditor are hereby authorized for the purpose of this act only, to designate a sub-fiscal agency in the city of New York, to the extent that same may be necessary to provide for the prompt payment of all bonds and coupons issued under this act, payable by their terms at a sub-fiscal agency in the city of New York. "Sec. 4. There is hereby levied upon all the taxable property of the state of Kansas an annual tax sufficient to pay the interest on such bonds and the principal thereof, as they may become due; and the proceeds of such taxes are hereby appropriated to the payment of such principal and interest. Sec. 5. There is hereby created a board consisting of the governor, secretary of state and the state auditor and the adjutant general of the state, which board is hereby charged with the administration of this law; and it shall, within thirty (30) days after the taking effect of this act, make, establish and publish rules and regulations providing for the proof of claims made under this act, and for the method of payment of the same, and they are hereby authorized, in the general administration of this law, to establish other rules and regulations; Provided, That upon any questions upon which said board may be equally divided, then such questions shall be determined by the governor, the secretary of state and state auditor, without the vote of the adjutant general. "Sec. 6. This act shall take effect and be in force from and after its publication in the official state paper." Sec. 2. This act shall take effect and be in force from and after its publication in the statute book. Published in official state paper April 21, 1923.

Call Fair- fax 0380 Or 4422 THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE "When I was a kid trying my best as a newsboy, bootblack, amateur actor, and what not to make a living and to help out the family a bit," said a short, fat man who appeared contented with life, "I was skinny, so much so that I was taken by a politician whose boots I used to shine, to the health doctor. He looked me over, and used a lot of language I didn't understand. Finally he said that what I needed, and ought to have, was plenty of milk, fresh eggs, and meat and potatoes once a day. It was a joke to me because I couldn't by any stretch of the imagination get that kind of a meal once in six months. But somehow I weathered it all. Now I'm fairly well off, I can get cream, and fresh eggs, and meat and potatoes, and a lot of other things for every meal. I just came from a doctor's office. Know what he told me? To cut out all rich foods, cream, eggs, red meats—everything I like, and virtually go back to that childhood diet I struggled with on Hester street on the New York East side more than forty years ago."—Detroit News. New York Worth Only $24 We often hear that Peter Minuet in 1626 paid the Indians only $24 for Manhattan Island. We are apt to think of this as a ridiculously small sum for what is today the most valuable piece of land of its size in the world; but we do not stop to think that if this original $24 had been invested by Peter Minuet at the rate of seven per cent per annum and compounded every six months to date it would have earned a sum equivalent to the assessed value of the entire city of New York, so it is said, including its streets, sewers, railways, subways, theaters, hotels, skyscrapers and palatial homes, says Thrift Magazine. Cougar Attacks Man An attack by a cougar, one of very few on record, has been reported from the Olympic National forest, western Washington, by Glen Merchant, a former forest guard, says an Associated Press dispatch from Olympia, Wash. Mr. Merchant said the cougar sprang from some brush and tore off a trousers leg and severely scratched him. He hit the cougar on the nose with a fishing rod, and ran. The beast did not follow. Refined Cruelty Wife (with newspaper)—Isn't this terrible? Two Russian girls hacked another to pieces because they were envious of her expensive clothes. Hub—Shocking! In this country they would have been content to pick her to pieces—Boston Transcript. It Muriel—Well, mother, I have promised to marry Percy and that settles it. Mother—Yes; settles it on your poor father all right—Boston Transcript. Called Off Uncle George—Did you see the eclipse of the moon the other night? Little Ethel—No; we sat up late to see it, but the sky was so cloudy they didn't have it. PUBLICATION NOTICE. In the District Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas R. A.

GIRLIE MAE THOMAS. Attest: CARL W. FINCKE, Clerk District Court. (First Published August 22, 1924) VOCAL EXERCISE TO IMPROVE THE VOICE A good speaking voice "sings." The tones come out exactly as they do in singing except they are not so sustained. And a good speaking voice, too, needs a range of tone, just as the singing voice does. That is, your voice must not play one or two notes; it must have a variety of tone; it must not be monotonous. Tones, indeed, say as much as words. Modjeska, it is said, could recite the alphabet with such emotional tones that her hearers would weep. Do your tones speak as well as your words? A good test of your power to talk with tone is to try the alphabet, numbers of the syllables "la, la, la" and see what you can convey of fear, sorrow, anger, apprehension, surprise, calm, interest, and so forth. When you try this exercise, notice if your tones are shaky or not well sustained. If they are either, it is because you do not breathe deeply enough or use the breath properly to make tone. To develop power in sustaining tone, try chanting and intoning. Take for practice one of the psalms, "My soul doth magnify the Lord" (Luke 1:44). Take a full breath for each word and hold the tone through the words. Then speak and hold the same open-throated quality in the speaking voice.—From the Delineator. Mystery Present "And how did my precious like the little present I made him with my very own hands?" cooed the sweet young thing to the object of her affections. "It was lovely," replied the young man. "But there was one thing I should very much like to know, dear." "And what is that, pet?" "I want to know what your present was intended for," he answered, tactlessly. "My sister said it was a cushion. Mother thought it was a tobacco pouch, while I'm using it for a penwiper." Now there's a coolness between them which no explanation can set right — Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. This remark was overheard in the New York aquarium. In these city institutions they always try to instruct the public. "You poor fish!" An attendant immediately approached, bowed politely to the lady, and said: "They do not mind being in the tanks. There they are well fed and also protected from their natural enemies. It is doubtful if they know their liberty is in any way restricted. So you need not feel sorry for the fish." But the lady was addressing her remarks to her husband. Lost Talent A great deal of talent is lost in the world for the want of a little courage. Every day sends to their graves a number of obscure men who have only remained in obscurity because their timidity has prevented them from making a first effort; and who, if they could have been induced to begin, would in all probability have gone great lengths in the career of fame. The fact is that, to do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand back shrinking and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in and scramble through as well as we can. Rev. Sydney Smith. Florida's Big Bridge Florida is building the longest automobile toll bridge in the world. Five and three-quarter miles in length, including causeways, this great span stretches across the upper arm of Tampa bay, connecting the winter resort of St. Petersburg with the commercial city of Tampa. Thirty-three miles—more than one-half—will be cut from the present distance between the two cities when the bridge is completed. It is estimated that the roadway will be thrown open to traffic by September 1. Omission Explained "Father," said little Timmy O'Brien, "why didn't St. Patrick sign the Declaration of Independence? Didn't they ask him?" "Shure they did, me bhoy; but ye see he thought the man that brought it to him was wan o' thim autygraft hunters, an' he kicked him out o' the house."-Boston Transcript. Cheap for Her Weight While waiting at the railway station, Brown put his four-year-old daughter on a weighing machine. "Just 40 pounds," he said. "You "Only 42 pounds," he said. "You ought to weigh more than that." "Well, goodness, daddy!" exclaimed the little one, "what do you want for a penny?"-Edinburgh Scotsman.
