Moten of Los Angeles, Calif., who has been appointed Evangelist of the State of Missouri by Bishop H. B. Parks of the A. M. E. Church.

Moten is a plain gospel minister, a soul stirring preacher; a sweet singer and ripe scholar; a student of Prairie View State Normal, a graduate of Paul Quinn College, pastored some of the leading churches in Texas; was Presiding Elder for years and is now recognized as one of the best preachers of the A.

V. Longdon. One of the noticeable features of modern features of modern life is the increase of motion. City, town, nor country people no longer live in the spot where they were born or if they do they break the monotony by taking trips and extending their knowledge of life by observing different customs and new aspects of life. Dear reader, owing to the wide circulation of this weekly publication we are loath to say that you live in Kansas City, Mo. But if your home is in town or the country, try to know the city people. You need to learn how to hold yourself in the crowd. You need to know how to think amid constant and various noises. You need to know that humanity is about the same everywhere, in city or country, and while the earth about your rural home has its uniformity with slight differences in hill and plain, so its product are very nearly alike. All too soon you may have learned them or not. Fate manages without our advice and strange things happen. Now if your home is in the city get to the country as often as you can. The tallest buildings—you have watched them reared skyward. The boulevards, avenues and broadwalks—you know sand and cement and crushed rock. Out in the country is the God-made world. And as Heine tells us, God produces the greatest results with the simplest means. These are simply, sun and water, flowers and love. Of course if you be without love the whole will present but a pitiful appearance; and in that case the sun is merely so many Hear!

Would you get close to the hand of the almighty? Now is the time to see its work in nature in the open country. Would you get close to the heart of the father?

SECOND BAPTIST CHURCH. The pastor, Dr. Bacote, preached in the morning and in the evening the services were devoted to covenant meeting. Last Friday Rev. Fleifeff, Rev. Foster, Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Becks made great talks in the lecture room in the interest of Prohibition. Sunday, November 12, the pastor, choir and congregation of the Ebenezer church, 16th and Lydia, and the Bethel church, 24th and Flora, will co-operate in our big rally to clear the floating indebtedness of the church. Europe Has Shrunk An extremely interesting map of Europe, during the third interglacial age, shows land extending far into the Atlantic, with rivers where are now the English and Irish channels, the Shannon river beginning a little out to sea from its present mouth and the Rhine flowing into the Arctic ocean at a point twice as far from its present mouth as the modern river is long. What these river would be in the good year 1916 was not one of the things that bothered the doughy pitldown man, Ecanthropus Dawsoni, who scampered about Britain at that time, estimated at 100,000 to 300,000 years ago.

HOW TO CREATE PERSONALITY Practice the Real Smile, the Hearty Handshake and Musical Voice If You Would Succeed. To discuss personality without mentioning a pleasant smile and a genial handshake would be as incomplete as discussing good health without mentioning exercise. A natural smile is readily obtained after one has acquired a musical laugh, wholesome thoughts and a pleasant voice. A forced smile is easily detected and usually arouses suspicion, as it is considered a mask. It is the forced smile that usually results in facial contortion. The genuine smile prompted by cheerfulness is accomplished by slightly parting the lips, gently raising the corners of the mouth, and is completed by a happy expression in the eyes. Stand before your mirror and see how easily you can be convinced that this is true, also how well it will pay you to wear a genuine smile. The handshake needs no practice, only remember that a firm grip and a hearty shake inspire confidence and are a token of frankness and accord with spontaneous laughter and a well-placed musical voice. To prove conclusively that personality can be acquired by anyone, I have even seen invalids change an irritable and unattractive personality to one of cheer and sunshine, winning all who came in contact with them and accomplishing for themselves many more hours of happiness and many less hours of pain. If you will but conscientiously carry out these instructions you will soon have a personality which attracts, giving pleasure to your friends and great satisfaction to yourself.—The Christian Herald. PORO CLUB MEETS. Chicago, Ill., Nov. 8.—The Chicago Poro Club, composed of 150 agents of the Poro College, St. Louis, M., held its annual meeting at the Wabash Avenue Y. M. C. A. auditorium, 3763 Wabash Avenue, with Mr. and Mrs. Malone guest. Mrs. Mattie Campbell, president of the club, called the meeting to order. A happy spirit pervaded the meeting. Mr. Malone opened the meeting with a short but brilliant talk on the aim and purpose of the meeting, stating that he was highly pleased to see such a large number interested in the work. He told of how he and his wife worked day and night for the interest of their agents and the good being accomplished. He said there were 8,000 agents working for the Poro concern and that the office received on an average of 400 letters per day, requiring ten stenographers and ten clerks and that a total number of twenty-five young women were employed at the plant. Mr. Malone said with emphasis: "We are working to give positions and places to the young women of our race. The agents are making it possible. We had had such meetings at Birmingham, Atlanta and Montgomery and they have been a howling success. If things don't go right we want you to help make it go right. We want Poro to stand out as one of the great concerns of the day and it can do that with your help." Cary B. Lewis of the Chicago Defender spoke on "Efficiency," after which the meeting took on the form of a school. For two hours questions pro and con pertaining to the work was discussed by the members of the club. A photographer was called and a picture in front of the $225,000 Y. M. C. A. was taken. There was a few minutes social hour when the members returned to the auditorium where the club listened to an address by Mrs. Malone. Her charming personality, sweet voice and business-like manner attracted the attention of the agents, many of whom had never seen the discoverer of Poro, which is the "Rage" of the age for the hair. At her fingers end she had a hundred and one points to tell the agents how to "make their business a success. Mrs. Malone said their object at all times was to protect agents. She made it plain that she refused to supply agents who would not keep up the prices. There was one agent in the city who did not keep the rule of the Poro office and she has been erased from the Poro list. This in particular has shown the business-like methods of the office. Mrs. Malone spoke of how loyal the agents should be to their patrons, displaying at all times courtesy and best of treatment; that it meant a great deal to them and the Poro business. Mrs. Malone became very deliverable when she said: "We must work zealously. Work to help some one else. Tell each other of their faults, but do it in a Christian-like manner; be friendly; you may criticise but never become harsh. Don't stay in the club if you have not its interest at heart. Attend the club meeting. Don't work on each other's customers; go in new fields; spread out, there is plenty room. Ten thousand more agents could be used and you not disturbed." She praised the officers and members of the Chicago club and said she expected great things from them. Mesdames Betts Robinson, Weathers and Jackson were appointed on a committee of place where the club was to meet regularly. The officers are Mrs. Mattie Camp bell, President; Mrs. Bertha James Vice President; Mrs. Rosa Williams Secretary; Mrs. Mary Thomas, Assistant Secretary; Mrs. P. N. Robinson Treasury, and Mrs. Birdie Betts Chaplin. "God Be With You Until We Meet Again" closed one of the most interesting meetings Mr. and Mrs. Malone have attended in the interest of their agents. Busy and Useful Life. William Murray Black, who has been appointed chief of engineers of the army, is recognized as one of the most prominent engineers of the country. Born in Lancaster, Pa., he graduated from West Point in 1877. He was long engaged on river and harbor improvements. Important work was carried on under his direction in Porto Rico and Cuba, and he was senior member of the board charged with raising the wreck of the battleship Malne. Among the books which he has written are "Improvements of Harbors" and "Public Works of the United States." He has also contributed to various periodicals. Pony Petted by Three Generations. John Malia, deputy sheriff of Lewiston, Me., owns a Shetland pony which is probably the oldest in Malne; she is thirty-five years old, and has been the pet of three generations of Malia children. She is as affectionate as a dog and has been made so privileged a favorite that she is as much at home in the house as in the barn. Tree Prevents Suicide. Driven to attempt suicide by the failure of her father on the ock exchange, and consequent poverty, a young Japanese girl recently herself into the ocean from the topmost cliff of the sacred Isle of Enoshima. She was caught and pinioned by the branches of a giant tree which leaned far out over the sea. It was not until 17 hours later that her cries were heard by a fisherman passing in a sampan and she was rescued, seriously, but not mortally hurt. Rev P. MRS. IDA M.

Bandeau of Cut Jet Is a Particularly Handsome Ornament for One Form — Pretty Arrangement of Girl's Hair. It is now the fashion to dress the hair, in the evening, very simply and very close to the head at the sides. Artificial waves are not considered at all correct, nevertheless the hair is waved slightly, and very skillfully. The idea is that these large loose waves should be a perfect imitation of nature's best work, writes Idalia de Villiers, Paris correspondent of the Boston Globe. A coifure with a cut jet bandeau was copied from a portrait belonging to the directoire period. At the sides the hair clings to the head, but at the back it is raised high over an invisible frame. Then the handsome bandeau of cut jet is passed right round the head and pressed well down on the forehead in front. To add to the early Josephine effect there is a little string of cut jet passed under the chin. I have seen a similar headaddress made of seed pearls, transparently set, with real diamond barettes at the sides and a string of valuable pearls to form the chin strap. It was a very beautiful ornament. My sketch shows a pretty coiffure for a young girl. Here the hair is made to look as though it had been cut short and curled. This effect was obtained by a clever manipulation of the long hair at the back and sides, the twisted in ends being held in place by curved hairpins. The side parting is more fashionable than ever, and some of our Parisian beauties are having their hair dressed in the picturesque style which was associated with the beautiful actress, Mrs. Brown Potter, 25 years ago, that is to say, the side parting, with the hair-perfectly smooth—allowed to fall in a careless "flop" on the fore- 7 New Coifure for Young Girl. head and then softly drawn back and tied at the back with wide black ribbon. One of our favorite French actresses is trying to make the "Poliure head-dress" popular again, but this style is too remarkable for the taste of refined women. At the same time the effect of short curled hair is, as I have just said, in favor. In Paris they are making lovely bands for the hair of seed pearls intermingled with a scroll work of silver filigree. I have also seen plaques of silver fillgree fastened to bands of turquoise blue velvet, to form a hair ornament. The style of headdress which we have decided to call "the headache band" is again creeping into favor. These bands are really very pretty when correctly arranged and when they are not too large. But it is not every woman, or girl, who knows how to arrange a band of this genre effectively. It is not enough to pass a length of ribbon round the head and tie it—just anywhere. MAKES HANDY WRITING PAD Useful Little Gift, Suitable for Man or Woman, Can Easily Be Made by Amateur. Here is a handy suggestion for a birthday gift which should be highly appreciated, for the gift will do for either a man or a woman. A portable writing pad will prove quite useful to the person who has no writing desk in her room, and will be more than valuable to the transient person. The beauty about this particular writing pad is that it can be easily made by the amateur. First of all cut a 15-inch circle from stiff cardboard. Cut the circle in half, laying the halves about an inch apart. GRAY HAIRS NEED NOT WORRY Frequently Result of Run-Down Condition of the System, and Natural Color Comes Back. The first gray hairs are a source of alarm to every woman, and the rapidly-increasing numbers may. If she is unwise, lead her to experiment with hair restorers and dyes. Hair dyes are a delusion, for their effect is only temporary, and it is necessary to have the hair retouched very frequently as it grows out around the head. However, the first gray hairs need not be a cause for alarm, for very often they show a run-down condition of the system and a lack of nourishment of the scalp, or, nervous exhaustion. By building up the general health, massaging the scalp so that it will get the required nourishment from the blood, and by thoroughly relaxing or exercising to relieve nervous tension, their number will not increase and the gray hairs themselves will sometimes grow out their natural color for the remainder of their length.—Lewis B. Allyn, in Ladies' World. the straight or diameter edges facing each other. Now cover each half with two circular pieces of cretonne or denim. You see, the space between the cut edges will make it possible to fold the pad. The cretonne or denim can be pasted to the pasteboard semicircles or their edges can be whipped together. It will be necessary to stitch the material along the straight edges of the half circles so that the pasteboard will not slip. On the inside of each semicircle stitch material to form pockets for envelopes, writing paper, stamps and an address book. Little pieces of tape could also be supplied to hold a pen and a pencil. HAVE YOUR SCISSORS HANDY Good Sense in Providing a Case for Household Articles So Constantly in Demand. It is often most annoying to have to hunt about for a pair of scissors, especially when time presses, and this Scissors Case would not happen if a case were provided for one pair at least, and hung in the general living room. The case is easily made. A piece of thin cardboard will be needed for the back. Take the scissors that are to be in general use and lay them on the cardboard; mark out a shape slightly larger than the scissors with a pencil. Cut this out, then cut three pieces of silk or sateen; line the cardboard with two of them, the third piece will need a little cutting off in the front at the top, as shown; neatly buttonhole the edges. Sew the pocket to the back shape neatly; if liked, a thin cord the same shade as the silk can be put round. On the pocket two or three little flowers can be embroidered or painted. A bow of ribbon is put on the back so that the case will hang up. This case will prove most useful, for not only can the scissors always be found, but it protects the steel, which is so easily affected by any change in the atmosphere and often becomes rusty if left without cover. "MOUTH POCKETS" One of the latest styles in evening wraps, which will be worn extensively by the smart set this winter. It is trimmed with moleskin and lined throughout with rose taffeta. An innovation in evening wrap only seen in those of the latest design is the pockets formed like a mouth, and known as "mouth pocket". They are really combination pocket and sleeve as the hand slips through the open. $howerproof Sweaters Wool sweaters which have been put through the rainproof process are boiling offered for sports wear. These are made perfectly plain with all around belts and high rolling collars. Angora Collars Instead of Fur. Soft, fuzzy Angora collars and cuffs take the place of fur or leather in the collars and cuffs of some knitted wool sweaters, and, especially in white, are exceedingly becoming. Occasionally a designer has been kind enough to make these fuffy white wool collars and cuffs adjustable so that they may be worn with a dark sweater or not, according as their owner' wants to be practical or effective, and the scheme is a good one. Beaded Velvet Bag. This black velvet bag is beaded with many colors. It is a fascinating and not at all difficult sort of fancy work and a bag would be much more attractive when carried out in one's own design and choice of colors in the matching of new gowns. Russian Blouses of Silk Net. A fine dash is given to a rather ethereal summer frock by a Russian blouse of vivid-colored silk net reaching to the knees and bound round the hem with a broad band of heavy gold embroidery. INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By E. O. SELLERS, Acting Director of Course, Missouri Bible Institute, Chicago). (Copyright, 1916, Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR NOVEMBER 11 WORLD'S TEMPERANCE SUNDAY. LESSON TEXT—Romans 14:13-15:3. GOLDEN TEXT—It is not good to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything whereby thy brother stumbleth—Rom. 14:21. The early Christian church had two outstanding problems, the question of the Sabbath days (two of them) and the question of eating meat offered to idols. This lesson suggests the solution of the latter. Our modern problem of intoxicating liquors is very much the same as this ancient one of the early Gentile Christians. I. "Let us not therefore judge one another" (vv. 13-15). There are certain acts which are universally conceded to be right and within the Christian law of liberty. There are also other acts which are as plainly prohibited. There are a large number of acts which lie in the region between these two, and man ought to be careful how they condemn one another for these latter things. Where good and true men differ, their acts, on the matter of the Sabbath (See Col. 2:16), or on temperance, must be determined as being unto the Lord, sincerely, conscientiously. It is not for us to judge (v. 13), literally, to pronounce judgment. They have a right to their opinion and to their liberty of thought and action, but (vv. 14, 22, 23) is for Paul or the Christian, he must have a clear conscience. He must have faith, and be assured that he is right; otherwise he is condemned by God and by his own conscience, and is not a sincere Christian discipline. The word "therefore" in verse 13 points back to verse 12, which ought to be carefully pondered. As we have each to render our accounts to God, we should stop judging one another. Food is a very proper thing, and laws are also proper, yet love is the ruling principle of the Christian life. We ought to have our liberty curtailed rather than have our souls lost. If we magnify our liberty to the sacrifice of our brother's soul we "walk no longer in love." The demands of Christian love are more to the true followers of Christ than the permissions of Christian liberty. The privilege of eating and drinking while it injures others, however harmless to yourself, is not to be tolerated. The word "stumbleth" here used (v. 21) implies a movable trap or snare, literally any impediment placed in the way so as to cause another to fall. We must never forget that even a weak brother is "a brother for whom Christ died." II. "Let not your good be evil spoken off" (vv. 16:23). The kingdom of God is not meat and drink, but it is a life of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost. Our liberty is to be so used that it shall not be evil spoken off. The real proof that we are in the kingdom of God and that the kingdom of God is in us is not found in our scrupulousness or lack of it, in our eating and drinking, but in the manifestations of righteousness in our lives, and of having peace in our hearts (15:13). This peace must be manifested toward our fellow men (v. 19; Ch. 15:18) and being filled with "joy in the Holy Ghost." The object of our pursuit is to be the things which make for peace, the things whereby we may fill one another up, not the exploitation of some pet hobby, for the kingdom of God does not consist of riding hobbies. In this matter of temperance reform we all recognize that alcohol has many uses besides that for drinking purposes, and that there are various opinions about drinking certain forms of it, and various ways of advancing the temperance cause, all of which are honestly held by many good men, but Christian patriotism demands that every true-hearted man or woman, everyone who is loyal to his country, to humanity and to his God, should take Paul's position. (1) That he will not be a stumbling block in the way of the weak and of the young. (2) That he will not do anything to destroy his brother for whom Christ died. (3) That he will deny himself anything for their sake. (4) That his attitude will be that of love and not of selfishness. This places temperance on a high moral plane, but the world is also beginning to recognize that the temperance question is also an economic one. The recent developments in Europe, since the war began, are tremendously significant. As someone has said, "Russia's recent advance upon the eastern front is really an advance of an army led by 'General Abstinence', and not by any particular military general. It is not merely a question as to whether a thing is wrong in itself or whether you will hurt yourself by it, but the real question is, "Will anyone be injured, made to stumble, by doing what I am doing?" This will settle the moderaterdrink question, the tobacco question, the dance question, card-playing question, theater-going question, and a thousand and one other questions. It is well to have faith, but it is also well to have the love that does not injure others by the exercise of that faith. The question is, "Are you perfectly sure this thing is right?" III. "We then that are strong" (15: 1-3). This section is in reality a continuation of Chapter 14. Paul is continuing his thought that we are not to please ourselves, but rather to live such lives as will edify or build up our neighbor. Our strength is not given to us that we may glory or lord it over our weaker brethren, but rather that we may serve them. To please my neighbor does not mean that "when in Rome do as the Romans do," but rather to live such a life that my action will be for the good and edification of my brother, thereby pleasing God (Gal. 1.10). In Woman's Realm in the Boudoir. A formal suit may arrive at distinction through novelty in material or unusual and original design, or by means of beauty in style and finish. Here is one that has drawn upon all these sources, and it presents a stunning conception carefully worked out. The formal suit, like the one-piece frock worn with furs, affords a distinguished costume for afternoon and for anything the afternoon may bring. It is worn with a costume blouse and is ```markdown ``` Skiing FORMAL SUIT OF FUR-FABRIC. equal to all the demands of semi-dress. Velvet offers advantages for this kind of suit, and other pile fabrics, including that shown in the picture, are equally rich and more novel. The suit is made with a plain skirt finished with a hem five inches wide. A material of this kind does not need decoration, but since needlework is the order of the day, an embroidered motif is allowed in two places at each side of the skirt at the hem. Very heavy silk is used for this work. The skirt sets smoothly about the hips and falls in folds below. The coat is unusual in many ways. Its skirt is sloped upward across the front and right side, where it falls with a slight ripple to the waistline. It is much longer and fuller at the back. The body is plain, with easy adjustment to the figure. The sleeves are large and finished with deep, expansive cuffs, and there is a collar of most generous proportions which swathes the neck in the becoming fashion most approved. The front of the coat does not open straight down the center, but the left side is curved to extend across the figure at the waistline and button THE LADY OF THE RING THE BUBBLE NEGLIGEES FOR THE BOUDOIR. at the right side. There is no girlle, but a rectangular piece of the fabric takes the place of one at the back. It is ornamented with three buttons at each side. It will be noticed that the skirt extends below the shootets, but lacks much of reaching the instep. This length is approved by style makers, but many women cling to the shorter skirts, and, since feet are so daintily clad, there is every reason for allowing them this privilege. The ingenuity of those who create new caps and neglegibles and other dainty belongings for womankind has been put to its annual test. Before the holidays these luxuries that women love blossom out at their best, and they must be like and unlike those that have helped make other holiday times radiant. Whether they were ever more beautiful or not cannot be determined. It is certain they were never A well-put-together woman seen in Fifth avenue the other day in the morning hour wore a covert cloth suit plaited and belted but on today's lines; a cross fox flat animal neck bon, which harmonized with the tan of the covert exactly, and a balloon tam of velvet, with one of the new veils which have the plain blue mesh over the face and the tan embroidery in spiral leaf design over the hat crown only.—New York Herald. more beautifully made or more alluringly dainty. Soft silks or satins, silk crepe, chiffon lace and ribbon, as in times past, are the mediums in which designers work out their inspirations. Silver tissue and silver laces and other things that possess shimmer and gleam extend their field of usefulness beyond the dinner and dance costume to do a little twinkling in the boudour cap. And even negligee assumes the splen- 指 dor of gold or silver cloth, veiled with the sheerest fabrics or laces. There is nothing prettier for the short boudoir or breakfast coat than either plain or printed crepe or soft silk, with the limpest of silk lace draped over it. Tassels or pendant ornaments made of silver or gold cloth, and ribbon, as always, are found in company with these materials. Two pretty caps are shown in the picture given here. At the right an open-meshed silk lace with crepe de chine make the cap, and small chiffon roses add touches of color to it. The lace is caught back at each side of the face by them. Small flowerlike pendants on a silver cord are made of silver tissue, and they furnish and weight the hanging ends of lace. This cap is very easy to make, for the lace and crepe are basted together and given to the hemstitcher to be set together by machine stitching. The cap at the right is made of a net-top lace, with the plain edge frilled about the face and the escalloped edge overlapping the plain edge of a second strip of lace. At the crown of the THE head the lace is gathered into a rosette. The cap is as simple as can be. A border of narrow satin ribbon is stitched to the net top of the lace, about two inches in from the edge, to form a casing for a small flat elastic. This is inserted and the lace frilled on it. At the back a rosette and two ends of ribbon shelter a little spray of tiny flowers. Three little wheel bows of narrow ribbon are set about the face, one in front and one at each side of the cap, just above the frill. Julia Bottomley In Excellent Taste. Silver trimmings are in excellent taste for this season's black and white hats. Gold and silver, brilliant, tarnished, soft and bright luster, embroidered in gorgeous silks, on modest serges, on filmy laces, are more in evidence than ever in new winter materials. Wherever one looks in the shops there is the glitter of precious metals. It hits the eye and leaves an impression on the brain that every one will be agitter in this winter's garb. In fact, the robe for day, as well as evening, which has not some touch of shimmering brilliancy will not seem right. OWN PART OF GREENLAND Comparatively Few Know That the United States Territory Extends That Far to the North. Very few had any idea that the United States owns a chunk of Greenland as big as one of our averagesized states until they read the provision in the proposed treaty between our country and Denmark whereby we are to pay $20,000,000 for the Danish West Indies and, if addition, relinquish to Denmark all our claims to territory in Greenland. If you will look at a recent map of Greenland you will see the name "Peeryland" across the upper part of it. This is the land discovered and explored by Admiral Peary. He and other American explorers were the first to visit and map the coast line of the greater part of northern Greenland and Peery discovered that it was an island. It has always been the recognized right of a nation to claim sovereignty over land discovered by its subjects. Spain got title to a big slice of America through Columbus. Under this title-by-discovery claim the United States could claim all of northern Greenland except the Danish settlement of 34,000 square miles and 12,000 population on the southern coast opposite Iceland. But this is only one twenty-fifth of the area of Greenland. Now Denmark wants it all. The average American will be likely to say, "For goodness sake, let Denmark have it and good riddance; what do we want of that iceberg?" The chances are that we don't want it and that it would never be any good to us. Still, there is another possibility. When the United States bought Alaska it was thought by the majority of people to be barren and worthless, but last year it shipped us in goods eight times the value of the purchase price, and now coal is coming to the Alaskan coast by rail to help lower the price in California. Spitzbergen, far up beyond the Arctic circle, has recently become of immense value because of the discovery there of minerals. Dispatches have told of the return of members of the Stefansson Canadian Arctic expedition with news of the discovery of great fields of native copper in Prince Albert land, as far north as Greenland. Canada is exploring the lands of the Arctic with the intention of extending her authority all the way to the pole, on the chance of finding coal, iron, copper and possibly gold. But the development of those regions, if they are ever to be developed, seems to be the province of the nations of the snows, like Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Canada. Rodin's Meditations Auguste Rodin, the French sculptor, is noted as one who has wrought greatly, created greatly, reflected gloriously. He delights in reading, but he reads only old books. Above all he delights in books of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in their original editions. To his thinking most modern books are not well enough written, not well enough printed and are not well enough bound. Only his intimate friends—and his coachman—know, it is said, how at times he is absorbed in himself and is oblivious of all surroundings. At such times, it is useless to speak to him. He answers no one. He must be let alone in his meditations. When he returns from Paris to the villa of Meudon the coachman opens the door of his carriage, Rodin is awake, but thinking, and his reverie must not be disturbed. So the coachman closes the door, detaches the horses, and leaves the carriage with the man of genius in the middle of the coach yard, and there he will continue to dream, sometimes for hours. Uncertain Humanity "Briefly stated," we explained, "the story of Enoch Arden was about as follows: He went to sea and was shipwrecked on an uninhabited island where he remained for several years. When at last he was rescued Mr. Arden put out for home with considerable rapidity, only to find that during his absence Mrs. Arden had married again. What do you suppose was his subsequent action? "Hard to finger," replied Mr. Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge, Ark., who had been listening with deep interest to the recital. "You can't tell which way a toad will jump when you poke him, and folks is just as peculiar. Probly he either took a shot at his wife's second husband or else borrowed enough money off'm him to get back to his uninhabited island, and I wouldn't bet a nickel on either horn of the what-d'ye-call it?"—Kansas City Star. Shipbuilding Revival. Shipbuilding on the Pacific coast is reviving. There are now being built in the Pacific northwest 37 ships with 2 tonnage capacity of 292,000. Eleven of these are wooden vessels with semi-Diesel auxiliary power propellers, and the others are steel. The value of the vessels building or contracted for is $32,000,000, and a dozen shipbuilding companies are interested in the work. A steel steamer was recently launched at Seattle with a dead weight tonnage of 8,800 and another is soon to be launched at that place with almost the same tonnage. The Manufacturers' Association of Seattle recently gave a banquet in honor of the shipping and shipbuilding interests. Radium Production In Bohemia. In the mining of uranium ore in Bohemia, 25,720 pounds of uraninite prepared by smelting, having an average value of $471.50 per 100 pounds of an average value of the different uranium compounds, there were produced In the government mine in Joachimsthal 2,325 pounds of an average value of $252.50 per 100 pounds. The government factory for radium compounds produced compounds containing 1,754 grams (27.07 grains) of radium elements having a total value of $209,364.50. The radium production in 1915 represented an increase of 0.879 gram (13.57 grains), as compared with the production in 1914, the value of which shows an increase of $100,000 in round figures. Home Town Helps Every Community Would Be Bettered. If All Would Subscribe to the Following Creed. The man who loves his city—its people, its institutions, its churches, schools and parks, its flowers, trees and vine-clad homes—that man is the good citizen. He can, in good faith, subscribe to this creed, the author of which is now unknown: "I believe in her people, in her boys and girls. I will make myself a committee of one to make my town a good place in which to live and a mighty hard place to leave. I believe in my town. I believe in her schools; in her churches; in her stores. I believe in the street broom, and the street cleaner and the paint pot. I do not believe in empty cans on vacant lots; never again will I throw waste paper or trash in its streets. I believe in trees; grass instead of ash heaps, flowers instead of weeds. God bless the tongues that give honest praise and may he doubly bless the ear that is deaf to scandal and gossip. If we cannot speak good of our neighbors, let's hold our peace! When it costs me nothing, at least, I will spend my money at home and by so doing leave a part of the purchase price to circulate in channels where its equivalent in wealth was originally created; and to do good among the folk who are a part of the community of which I am a part in the place that I call home." And if every man would live according to the terms of this creed, how much more desirable his would be.—Houston Post. KEEPING UP RURAL SCHOOLS Important Matter That Is Just Now Engaging the Attention of Illinois Educational Authorities. "Many good school people are viewing with alarm the new campaign for better school buildings," says a bulletin issued by the Illinois department of public instruction. "They fear that every dollar put into new buildings and equipment fixes more firmly the position of the small district and consequently postpones the time for consolidation. "It must be admitted that there is some ground for this fear. Every improvement in the local one-teacher school district will constitute an argument against its discontinuance. However, it is manifestly unjust to the 300,000 children in these rural schools today to keep them living and working under unfit and insanitary conditions in order that children of a later generation may enjoy a better school opportunity. Everyone will agree, no doubt, that, where the people of several adjoining districts are practically agreed upon consolidation, a delay in the large improvement of existing buildings for a year may be advisable." AIM TO HAVE MODEL TOWN Founders of Hopewell, Va., Are Men Who Recognize the Spirit of the Times. Hopewell, Va., is the youngest industrial city in the United States. A year ago its site was a peaceful Virginia farm a few miles from Petersburg. Then industry waved its magic wand and planted a great factory in the solitudes. Now it has a population of 25,000 and is growing daily. So metropolitan is Hopewell that municipal information is printed in five different languages. A liberal percentage of native Americans in the professional and commercial class, however, are enthusiastically alding in planning a city capable of ideal civic attainment. Hopewell was founded as the permanent center for a large manufacturing plant supplying munitions of war to European nations. Its plans were based upon the full recognition of the fact that the highest efficiency of the worker can only be expected under the best living conditions. . Arrangement of Home. No more important question confronts the home builder than the exposure of the rooms in his prospective home, for no matter how charming a house may be, nor how convenient its interior arrangement, it cannot be entirely successful unless each room has a favorable exposure. A living room having windows on its east and west sides may capture both the morning and afternoon sun, and if in addition it opens out on a porch facing the south, no more satisfactory arrangement is possible. A porch facing the south makes a pleasant open-air living room in warm weather, and a cheery, glassed-in sun parlor in the winter. For the dining room an easterly exposure is desirable, thus giving one a cheerful amount of sunshine for what is apt to be in many households the most trying meal of the day. The model kitchen will have windows facing both north and south. This makes for comfort in summer, and admits the late afternoon sun, which considerably lengthens the hours of daylight. South and west for the chambers is the correct exposure, with windows facing both ways if possible. Place for Shrubs. When architectural features are used it is best to place shrubs upon some general axis, so that they may serve as a factor in the design and be appreciated to the fullest extent. It is best to plant upon each side of the entrance, in order to accentuate it, upon the same principle that we have ornamental gates to mark the entrance to large estates—House and Garden. Well to. Remember. Make your community prosperous if you would succeed yourself. Nellie's Legacy (Copyright, 1916, by W. G. Chapman.) "And this is for you, Nellie," announced old Peter Brierly. "Better get it away at once, for I'm going to pack up the rest of the things today." "Thank you, Uncle Peter," responded sweet-voiced, gentle-faced Nellie Willett. "I certainly prize this memento of dear Aunt Janet." "She left nothing of her own, you know, Nellie?" pursued grasping, close-fisted old Peter, "and I'm not overburdened with this world's goods. I gave her brooch to your cousin, Mary. She's a liking for gimcracks and it pleased her. You're more practical, so the work basket will suit you best, see?" Yes, Nellie did "see." She made no complaint, nor did she harbor any resentment against this niggally donor. It was the contrast of this sordid relative with the angel-spirited wife he had fosted that saddened her. She wondered, now that Uncle Peter was untrammeled by the careful, economical regime of his sensible better-half, how soon he would make ducks and drakes of the savings of years, for all he had was due to the hard work and practical sense of Aunt Janet. What he had given Nellie was his wife's old work basket. Nellie beedewed it with her tears as she received it. How often had she sat by O'Fallors "Better Get It Away at Once." the side of its former owner and watched her sew, mend and knit, tired out, overworked, but always sunny-hearted and smiling! The brooch for volatile, sparkling Mary, old Peter exhibited with pride. It was about the only present in the way of an ornament he had ever given his loyal helpmate. "Stingy! oh, no name for it!" burst forth Mary, as the two girls left the home about to be denuded of its furnishings, its ambitious owner headed for the city, "where a man of parts might make something of himself!" "To think of all that money and this miserly way of getting rid of his closest relatives! Oh, well! the brooch is rather pretty. It will set off that blue party dress of mine finely." So Mary went on her way, her empty head full of vanity which brings vexation of spirit, and Nellie hers, the irksome duties of her lonely life lightened by the thought that the old familiar companion of the being she had loved best in the world, Aunt Janet, would always be at her side. Nellie found an unexpected use for the contents of the work basket. Some new people had moved into the great rambling place next to them, which had stood idle for several years. There was a studious appearing man of about thirty, an old lady, apparently his mother, and four small children. Nellie had learned that the name of the gentleman was Chester Dorsett, that he was single, in business in the city, and that the children belonged to a brother who, with his wife, was away on a vacation tour. Mr. Dorsett had come to the little country town to give the children an outing until fall, his aged mother undertaking their care. "Such care!" more than once Nelle had exclaimed to herself as she saw the little ones running wild. They had a famous time amid glorious brook, bramble and bush; but they romped, they tore, they played in water and dirt until nightfall, they wandered home veritable little tramps in instinct and attire. One day Nelle was seated in the garden doing some mending, the cherished work basket by her side, when a bushy head adorned with tangled auburn ringlets full of burrs obtruded through a break in the hedge. "Did my ball roll here?" inquired the tiny midget of a girl. "I haven't seen it, dear," answered Nelle, glad of company. She looked for the missing sphere, found it and handed it to her visitor. The latter was in dire disorder. Her toasted hair was secured by a ribbon tied in a hard knot, one pocket of her apron hung by a thread. There was a great tear in her dress. The little one was shrewd and prompt to observe the cynosure. "Please, grandma was sick this morning and couldn't fix us up. She says we're awful children." "You do need some attention," said Nelle. "Td be glad to tidy you up a bit. Suppose we try." Nelle found a willing subject. She combed out that gnarled head of hair, she plied her needle nimbly. She was quite proud of the transformation she had effected, when the little one went away all smiles and dimples with the announcement that she would bring this "dear Aunty" some presents. They arrived about noon, little Betty heading the procession of four, her older brothers and the youngest sister In the group. Betty tendered a bouquet of daisies, the boys presented each a formidable mud turtle and the smallest of the quartette held a squeezed fistful of half-ripe blackberries. "Danny lost two buttons," explained little Betty, practical-minded and profiting from her memory of her earlier mending up. Danny's garments were indeed in a forlorn condition, and needed immediate attention. The other two children also had various rips and tears in their attire. It was an hour of grand mending up. "You dear, good creature!" spoke a grateful voice at the hedge the next morning. "Your kindly services have quite respectably transformed my grandchildren. How shall I thank you? My old hands and poor sight count for little with the needle." Old Mrs. Dorsett became friendly and chatty in that first conversation. They grew well acquainted during the ensuing few days. An unending theme with Mrs. Dorsett was the goodness and loyalty of her son, Chester. "He torpeded the hole in his waist just so as to have an excuse to come over and see you," proclaimed little Marty one day, as his brother came to Nellie to be "mended up." It became a labor of love to Nellie to attend to the manifold needs of the little coterie. She blessed the gift that enabled so many needful stitches in their behalf. "So you are the fairy godmother who came to our rescue in behalf of our little horde of trouble makers," observed Mr. Dorsett, after his mother had introduced him to her newly found neighbor a week later. And Nellie, plying her needle to mend a sad rent in little Danny's stocking, blushed and laughed and looked so charming in the eyes of the city-wearled man of business, that it influenced him to take a whole week's vacation. There were little excursions down the river in which Nellie took part. There were pleasant chats in the garden when the romping quartette were off on a quest for berries and flowers, and suddenly one day it occurred to the well-to-do Mr. Dossett that he was in love. He told Nellie so frankly. As sincerely Nellie answered his appeal for her consideration. "It all came of Aunt Janet's work basket," said Nellie. "A fortunate legacy for me!" declared her loyal fiance heartstomely, and the humble old-fashioned basket fills an honored corner of their pretty home. A writer, on foot through the southern mountains studying the people for literary purposes, came upon a man of whom he sought information as to the location of a certain cabin where he had been advised to put up for the night. "You-all gain there?" asked the man. "Well, Tom's a fust-class man, take him jest right, but he's mighty queer." "What do you mean?" "It's like this: Tom'll be settin' outside, most likely, an' he'll see you-all, an' ef you-all don't suit him he may set the dawg on yu. Ef he don't and you gits to talkin' with him, and say anything he don't like he may throw you down an' tramp on you-all. But ef you-all's too careful in your talk, on the other hand, he's liable to git suspicious an' take you-all for a spy an' use his gun fust an' listen to explanations afterward. But it ain't no use tryin' to git by without stopping. Ef you-all was to try that, it would be all up, for he'd think you-all was proud an' haughty. Ef you-all wants to come out the mountain whole, don't go past Tom's cabin without stopping, whatever you do."—New York Times. His Probable Identity "A well-dressed feller had a heap of trouble with his motorcar out yur on Hogback Hill tuther day," relates Mr. Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge. "It balked when it was three-quarters of the way up the hill, and then ran backwards to the bottom of the slope, and took the studs and wouldn't go a-tall. And then while he was cranking it up it started, knocked him down and stopped on top of him. I came along and helped him exterminate himself, and when he started up hill again the motorcar balked once more half way up, ran backwards to the bottom, wrapped itself around a tree, caught fire and burned up. That feller wasn't killed, but he was considerably singed, and lit out for a doctor as the crow files. I don't know whur he came from, but I reckon he was one of them idle rich that we read about. They are always up to such tricks."—Kansas City Star. Flowers for Neglect. Someone asked what flowers will grow without any care whatsoever. What a question for a resident of California!

CHEERS FOR THE VAMPIRE Pictures Are Shown Out-of-Doors and the Audience Brings Its Own Seats—Professional Criticism Becomes Harsh. Headquarters, American Punitive Expedition, Mexico.—The smart young man who first called the "movies" the "silent drama" coloned a worthy phrase, but he never heard our movies at Colonia Dublan. The moving pictures shown at expeditionary headquarters are run off to an accompaniment of conversation and comment that would shame a chatty problem play. The comment is more or less pointed, too. Seven months away from civilization gives one rather a keen perspective. Our heroes down here have to do something finer than wear open-throated shirts and put restorer on their hair. Our heroes have to have more than a cute pout and a simple little frock. Otherwise, the audience is quite likely to cheer loudly for the villain and the vampire—the vampire especially. The "movies" are shown out-of-doors under these limitless Mexican skies. They are thrown against a specially-prepared screen that resembles nothing so much as a billboard. The audience brings its own seats—oil cans, boxes and the like serving very well. It is a dull night when there are less than a thousand officers and men seated in front of the screen. Starts With a Laugh. The program always starts with a laugh. The operator throws on the screen the following legend: "Ladies will please remove their bats!" Then the audience is at attention.

There came the conventional scene in which the heroine is sent from her home into the cold, cruel world by a heartless parent. As the stern father slammed the door, an artilleryman yelled: "Hey, old man, give her the regular three-days' rations!" Professional criticism became harsh when a weary prospector, leading a patient burro, finally found a spring and drank. He neglected to give the burro a drink. Once more the cavalry burst forth. "Take care of your best friend, Jack!" called a man with a yellow hat cord, "Give Sue a drink, too!" Talk Gets Peppery.

ADVENTURES IN DARKEST BORNEO Norwegian Traveler Tells of Interesting Experiences Among Natives. HEAD-HUNTING IS STOPPED Men Possess Fine Muscular Development and Women Are Well-Formed and Graceful—People Are Trustworthy and Industrious. London.—Quaint customs in darkest Borneo are described by Dr. Carl Lumholtz, the famous Norwegian traveler, in a letter just received here. Doctor Lumholtz says in part: "We met six natives who had been hunting the rhinoceros in the west. The horn of the animal when powdered is in great demand by the Chinese as a medicine, and fetches a high price. Such an expedition may last for two months. The hunters carry no provisions, and live on sago and what animals they can kill. When there is a scarcity of food they frequently go three or four days merely on water, and stay the pangs of hunger with tobacco. I was told that a man would tackle a rhinoceros with a spear single-handed, though the beast is very difficult to kill. "One day we were surprised by the arrival of a Saputan chief with two companions in a boat. They brought with them a dog, a blowpipe for darts, and a recently killed pig. "Not far from the Muller mountains we canped upon the upper Kasno river, which is inhabited by Saputans. They are a crude, friendly people, who, a hundred years ago, were mere cave-dwellers in the mountains to the east. Piercing Chief's Ears. "At Saputan I had the good fortune to take a cinematograph picture of the ceremony of the piercing of a chief's ears. It is their privilege to wear a tiger's tooth inserted in a hole in the upper part of each ear. "The chief was seated, and a beard was placed behind his head. Friends and supporters assisted at the operation, which consisted of an empty rifle cartridge being forced through his ear. Blood streamed down, and the man, apparently of a very robust type, seamed to be near fainting. A medicine man was hurriedly summoned, and he clapped his hands over the ears, and then, opening them, produced a small stone. This he threw into the river. "I was told that this stone was the supposed cause of the chief's illness. The scene was brought to a dramatic conclusion by the exhausted chief being ignominally carried away on the back of a young man. During the afternoon more pebbles were produced by the same sleight of hand, and a pig was killed in order to apease the bad spirit which had caused the chief's illness. "The Dyaks of the upper Mahakkan are friendly to strangers, and as the Swedish ship off the Farallon islands and taken to Seattle. He wired his wife, who had given him up for dead, but she didn't get the message, and she fainted when he walked into her home a few days ago. The Swedish crew had to pick Peacock and the spar from the water and cut it away from Peacock's bruised and bleeding body, he said. They applied restoratives, but he did not come to his senses for several hours. Then he found no one on the vessel spoke English. He said he couldn't make out "He sure is one smart hombre," said he. "Yeh, he's smart all right," dryly responded a negro infantryman. "You can tell that by the convict fatigue uniform he had on in the last scene!" Sometimes the talk gets very peppery indeed. But perhaps the choice comment of all came during the problem play. The heroine, of doubtful past, had for some reason failed to impress the hero. He rejected all her advances. Then one day she learns that he is married. She used all the stock methods and a few others to register shock, woe, broken heart, grief and sorrow. She took deep, convulsive breaths; she bit her lips; she clutched at her throat; she tore her hair; she passed her hand over her eyes as if in great pain; she seemed to faint and finally staggered off the scene. "My, my," said a negro trooper, just in front of us. "She seems dissatisfied, don't she?" great rapids down the river form a natural barrier they seldom receive visitors, and are little changed by outside influence. The Mohammedan Malays, for instance, have never been able to extend their influence above the rapids. "Luckily for the Dyaks, and incidentally for ethnology, these natives possess a fine muscular development. The women are well formed and move with grace and freedom. The head-hunting part of the native religion has been practically suppressed by Dutch influence, and so far as I could ascertain the last case of the kind, in this region was at least five years ago. "Apart from this repulsive custom, which now seems to have been eradicated, at any rate in this region, the Dyaks have many good qualities. They are quiet, trustworthy and industrious, and among them theft is unknown. Their carving is good, and even the wooden piles of the huts are artistically arranged. They recognize classes and the nobles, whom the rest obey. Though their clothing is very scanty, they bear themselves with great dignity. "Women as well as men practice their primitive medicine, and the former are as much in demand as the male doctors. Part of the treatment consists of a dirge sung by the practitioner, and when there is an epidemic of sickness the night is made very melancholy by the professional chorus. The tattoo marks of these natives generally represent some part of the durian, the famous fruit of which so much has been written, and I may add that to taste the durian is worth a journey to the Orient. "One of the favorite games of the natives is top spinning. They also use the means of 'tossing up' when they are in doubt as to the best site for a new rice field." COUGAR SHOT ON HIGHWAY Prowling Animal Crosses Road and Man Sitting on Front Porch Fires One Shot. Chehalis, Wash.—When a prowling cougar crossed the Pacific highway, near the north end of Jackson Prairie, eleven miles southeast of Chehalis, it fell a victim to a rifle shot fired by George Blattner, who was sitting on his front porch. One shot near the heart caused the animal to give a wild lunge into the air and fall dead. The cougar measured 7 feet 3 inches from tip to tip, and was a hungry-looking female. It is thought that lack of food emboldened it to come out into the open. COAL IS $50 A TON IN ITALY Resumption of Submarine Warfare Trebles Freight Rates on Other Products. Rome.—Resumption of Austro-German submarine attacks is causing grave concern in Italy, where the prices of coal, wheat, lumber, scrap iron and other imports have trebled within a year owing to the prohibitive freight rates. Coal now costs $50 a ton. The railroads have a stock of 200,000 tons, however, and are not likely to be interrupted during the winter. the vessel's name, but learned she had come around Cape Horn from Europe. come around Cape Horn from Europe.

AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS "With a demand for the Negro in the industries there will be a lessening of Negro congestion in the big centers like New York, Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington and St. Louis," writes Wilson Jefferson, from the Negro point of view, in the New York Evening Post. "With all of the ostracism of the trade unions, and the indifference of employers, there have still been more opportunities for earning a living in the big cities than in the towns and smaller cities. There were always openings in the big cities for Negroes as house servants, porters, hotel men and the like. And more important still there was always a large circle of friends to fall back on if temporarily out of a job. With a greater demand for his services in the smaller industrial towns and in the manufacturing districts around the big cities, there will spring up that community and neighborhood life which he so dearly loves. Besides, the employer will have him present in large enough numbers to fight any competition which might arise over any question of race or nationality. There will not be much incentive to complain about ten or fifteen Negroes in an establishment if there are other capable Negroes to take the places of those complaining "To get a glimpse of the possibilities wrapped up in Negro labor one has only to investigate the more progressive of the manufacturing cities of the South. Birmingham, Ala., depends almost wholly upon the Negro for its unskilled, and semi-skilled labor. Nashville, Atlanta, Memphis and Jacksonville do likewise. But in all of these towns, save in some instances in Birmingham, wages are too low, housing conditions are poor, and the advantages for recreation and pleasure exceedingly limited. It will be from these localities that Negroes will emigrate to the middle West and East, and to localities where wages are good and where there are opportunities for pleasure and self-improvement. No class of labor remains satisfied indefinitely under oppressive conditions. The Negro laborer is no exception to the rule. He has tried the South. He is willing to try the East and middle West. All he has awaited is a genuine call, based upon a real and lasting need. "This movement eastward and westward of unskilled Negro labor will both directly and indirectly help the Negro. The younger element, those of ambition, and of some training in the schools, will be constantly emerging from the unskilled to the semi-skilled classes, with a consequent increase in their pay rolls and a betterment in their methods of living. "A decidedly better treatment of the Negro, both in the North and in the South, will grow out of this scattering of the race. The old condition grew out of the fact that the demand for his labor has been limited and the supply unlimited. Other influences, some sinister and some not so sinister, have worked against him." Pure music for the children of today is an important factor in a nation's scheme of preparedness, in that it will make for a strong and brave race of men and women tomorrow. Such is the conclusion of David Mannes, the violinist, who owes his start in his profession to an old colored musician in the Tenderloin of an earlier New York, and who has devoted his life in large part to guilding and developing the musical genius of the Heads of colleges and secondary schools for education and training of Negroes in the United States have been invited to a conference, lasting from November 21 to 24, at the National Training school, Durham, N. C. They will be entertained at the National Training school, where it is planned to hold three conferences a day during the session, and speakers of prominence in educational circles and men who have devoted themselves to the advancement of colored people, have been invited to make addresses. Among the subjects and the speakers announced for the conference are: "Race Preparedness," an address by Bishop George W. Clinton, D., D., of Charlotte, N. C.; "A General Clearing House for Aid for Negro Schools" by Harry Andrews King, president of Clark university; "A Study of the Rural Schools of North Carolin," by Dr. A. M. Moore, secretary of the Association for Improvement of Rural Conditions Among Schools; "Preparedness of Negro Teachers," by H. J. Joyner, state superintendent of public instruction in Raleigh, N. C., and "What the State of Texas Is Doing for the Educa- The present demand for ships has accelerated the shipbuilding industry at Parrboro, N. S. Ship carpenters and wood workers are in demand. Norway's cod fishery has closed with a total of 51,397,000 fish. The official value is $20,100,000. England has bought the entire catch. During the kaiser's visit to Mitau two Russian airmen flew over the town and dropped a number of bombs. NOTES OF THE GARDEN Parsnips for winter use should be dug and stored before the ground freezes. In 1914 the value of the output of 1, 124 fertilizer plants in the United States, was $168,388,405. Cut mint for winter use and tie it in small bunches. Hang it in alry, shady places to dry. There is always much pleasant weather after the first cold spell, and it will be well to protect tender plants Negro. Mr. Mannes advanced this thesis as to the importance of music to the human race, irrespective of color, while talking on a favorite theme; the possibilities of the American Negro and the rare opportunity of reaching and developing him through his fondness for music. Basing his statement on a long and intimate experience with colored students, Mr. Mannes said that the Negro invariably turned for his musical expression either to instruments upon which he could pick or to instruments of percussion, bowed instruments never having figured in the Negro's repertoire either here or in Africa. Essentially a violinist himself, Mr. Mannes is particularly interested in speculations as to what will happen when the Negro race awakens to the possibilities of the violin and the 'cello, and he likes to think that when the Negroes master the use of the bow, their management of it will approach "the fine and natural legate of their own voices." When it comes to comparing human potentialities, this musician, who was first taught by a Negro and has since made the teaching of many members of that race a labor of love, resents the drawing of a color line. As he warms to the championship of their possibilities of development through music, he pictures what the future has in store. That future may be a distant one, he readily admits, but, he adds, to dream is but to prophesy. "Ragtime is not essentially vulgar, though its text and harmonic sequence may be," he says, "The Negro himself is most sorrowful that he is thought the producer of vulgar ragtime. To my knowledge no Negro has ever written to his music words to which anyone could take exception. Where vulgarity occurs in songs attributed to colored men, it is invariably some white man who has superimposed it. Furthermore, you must acknowledge the Negro's sense of poetry. "To be sure, he is not now developed, but I would set no limit to his future growth. Recognizing his human qualities, who would deny him divine right? If you deny these human qualities, then, of course, you deny the divine attributes. I combat most earnestly the theory that the Negro's capacity for development is limited. "Not having had the opportunity to develop a musical art tradition of their own, our colored citizens must become acquainted with ours. There the difficulty lies because they must retain their natural genius and make their own music. Having no framework of their own upon which to build, their faith must rest on Bach and Beethoven and Brahms."—New York Evening Post. In the seven months from February 1 to September 1, 1916, American yards entered into contracts to build 220 steel vessels of 576,857 gross tons, and completed 55 such vessels of 206,545 gross tons. To carry smaller boats within large craft a Dutch inventor has patented a vessel with hinged doors at one end of the hull, through which boats can be floated. Automobile service for both passengers and freight over the Andes mountains between Chile and Argentina is contemplated in opposition to the present railroad. tion of Colored Youth," by Prof. J. E. Clayton, principal of the Clayton Industrial high school. The subjects for discussion have been announced at follows: "Religious Instruction in Schools," "Standards of Universities," "Colleges and Secondary Schools," "Duplication of Work In Schools," "Teacher-Training," "Rural Schools." A commission will be appointed by the conference to offer a concrete plan and present it to the public. Japanese scientists are searching for an explanation of an apparent relationship between the frequency of earthquakes at Tokyo and the amount of rainfall and snowfall in other parts of the empire. In an encounter near Lewiston, Me., between a bald-headed angle and a porcupine, the latter succumbed, but the angle bore off several trophies in the shape of quills. The ordinary year ends on the same day of the week as that on which it begins. Bohemian brewers have perfected a process that matures beer and makes it ready for use in from 8 to 12 days instead of the usual three months. A New York inventor's motor-cycle streetsweeper does the work of five men with brooms and does it more quickly and thoroughly. According to a Vienna physician insomnia can be cured if a person will grasp the head of his bed and pull backward until fatigue develops in beds with newspapers or a sheet spread over them. Try Something Else If you don't like a thing and you cannot help it, forget all about it and go about something else. Some people spoil their lives because of something they cannot remedy. The failure fills their hearts with regrets and enmities and leaves their lives a swampy waste. Failures of this kind give place to good deeds if they are rigidly used—Columbus Journal.

Based upon the enumeration the average attendance of white school children last year was 44 per cent while that of the colored children was 35 per cent. Considering that a very large percentage of white children attend private schools, this is a decidedly poor showing for the Negro parents of Kansas City. Of 1,337 teachers in the Kansas City schools 107 are colored. Of the latter only six are classified as principals. There are eight schools in which manual training and home economies are taught, besides the high school, and five which maintain kindergartens. There is also one strictly industrial school for colored children. It has been estimated that the Negroes of Kansas City annually spend for drink a sum of money sufficient to pay all the teachers salaries and to clothe and feed all the children in the public schools. The same sum would also pay off all the church indebtedness of the city, pay all the ministers their yearly salaries and support all the institutions of charity. If the white people ever expect to accomplish anything really big in a public way they must lay aside all their petty prejudices and narrowness. In the big anti-saloon demonstration a few days ago the colored schools were not asked to co-operate, although it is pointed out that drink excesses are greatest among Negroes and that black criminals are the greatest menace to the public safety, all of this superinduced by drink.

He saw him purposely at a distance, studied him, inquired about him, Yes, to all appearances Rodney Driscoll had cut out his wild ways, “Tl think {t over for a day or so and then do the right thing,” mused Deslow. ‘The “right thing” was forced on him the next day. ‘The sentor partner of the firm sent for lim the next day. “Driscoll,” he sald, “our treasurer has resigned and T have appointed you acting treasurer. You will sign the vouchers and checks ‘Rodney.

It's up to me to make open confession, Please listen,” and out came the whole story. The senior partner stared, then he laughed. Then he looked impressed, as Denslow pleaded: “Help me put this poor fellow I've robbed on to his feet, won't you, please?’ And he was so valuable, and humane, and earnest that he had his own way. He visited Driscoll and explalned. He gave him position in the office. He reassumed his own name and his friend. ly business associates voted his career a success, though novel, After that Driscoll got a regular pay envelope and braced right up. At the end of a year the two went together te visit Driscoll’s fiancee, Rose Mayhew and his sister, Eunice, in his home city, They had long since been apprized of the grand friend Rodney had found. Before they returned from their vaca- tlon Denslow said to Eunice one day: “Mlss Driscoll, T once changed m3 name, as you know, and good came of it. If you will consent to change yours, I will guarantee love and hap piness.” ‘And Eunice did. She will not heed it.

Gill, whb was put in charge of the school system of Cuba during the American occupation of that island after the Span- ish-Ameriean war, offers a single remedy for both these dangers to the peace and happiness and well-being of the United States, “Rdvieate,” he says, “Build citizens by giving them clvic training in the schools, Beginning with the tots In the primary grades, teach the boys and girls how thelr school, thelr town, thelr county, their state, thelr nation is conducted. ‘Teach them to vote and decide the little problems of thelr daily lives in the schoolroom by methods em- ployed in government. “Make ench schoolroom, for instance, a little town. Let the pupils under the teacher's super- vision elect a mayor from among thelr number end have all the others compose @ hoard of coun- ciimen. Put up to them problems of school, town, county, state, national management, to be de- cided on the principles of Justice and the safety and well-being of the majority. “A proper appeal must be made to the pupils," Professor Gill says, “and they must be enlisted heartily. “This 1s easily done, for we have good material to work with. Nearly all boys and girls are essen- tinlly good. ‘This 1s true, even If, by reason of an unfortunate environment, a child has developed jsome very bad habits, even those of dishonesty. 'If the appeal Is properly made to them, they can be counted on definitely to stand for that which Is honest, ‘fair and square,’ clean, generons and right. ; Teachers Part of the Plan. | “Personal and printed assistance must be given to them for carrying on thelr government in the spirit of American institutions and in accord with correct elvie forms, to maintain order and develop ‘co-operation and efficiency for.every good purpose: "They must be shown how to solve the problems of thelr daily intercourse, and, as thelr teachers help them to become independent in solving the prols lems in arithmetic, so their teachers must hely them to become independent in solving their daily problems of social and clvie relations. ‘The teach er’s part In the use of this laboratory method ot moral and civie tratning 1s the same as in mathe matics. ‘The teacher's authority and responsibility in both cases are to encourage and help the pupil to keep up enthusiasm, to become independent and Judicial in thought and to arrive at clear-cut decisions, At that point the old educational proc ess, as In mathematics, ends, but in this new \Inboratory work, dealing with the actual practical problems of dally moral and civle life, there { ‘another most {mportant step, which 1s tmmediatels to put these decisions into execution and to co operate for the good of all. “What is needed for introducing democracy tr .

Pe ee eee “Since citizenstip and government are matters ‘of action, as well as of knowledge, the method of teaching them must be the laboratory method, by which the pupil learns how to doa thing by doing it. In this respect citizenship 1s Ike swimming, which must be learned by practice in swimming; or carpentry, which must be learned by working under the direction of a carpenter. Citizenship must be learned by performing the right actions of citizenship and by maintaining the right spirit of citizenship, as well as by learning academically the facts of the subject. “The first essential of a correct plan for teach. ing American eftizenship is that {t shall be in ac cord with the spirit of American institutions, which Is expressed by the Golden Rule, in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States. For instance, it must as sure equil rights and Justice to all, and, of course, inust not give special privileges or estab- lish class distinctions, as in ancient Rome and Greece, strong traces of which still remain in our own country, “The second essential is that so far as the school government Is developed, It shall be rea- sonably parallel with some correct form of Amerl- ean government among adults, and give no wrong ideas to pupils, with the thought that they ean be eusily corrected Inter. It ought to follow, as near- ly as practicable, the plan of keeping reasonably separate the legislative, executive and judicial ele- ments of government, What the form of govern- ment Is, ff tt ts true to American eles, may not be a serous question, ‘The most slmple form ts that in which there are three officers, one at the head of the legislative department, another of the executive, and the third of the Judicial. ‘To these’ three offices tay be added those of clerks, i brarians, health, peace and other officers, Schootroom the Unit. “It is a good practice to consider the school- room, under the instruction of a teacher, as the unit of organization, rather than several rooms under the principal of the school. ‘The former plan tends toward a permanent and thorough use of the method, the latter to the dropping of the method in case the principal falls {ll or leaves the school. ‘The xchoolroom government may follow the plan of the locality in which it ts situated. If It Is in a city, tt may be well to follow the gen- eral plan of the city, with a mayor, Judge and president of the council, all the pupils being the council, or legislative body, thongh It would be undesirable and impossible to reproduce all the details of a large city government. If the school is in @ town, the schoolroom government should in form be that of a town; but as towns turn Snto elties, and oe go from towns to live in cities, it 18 good practice, where town government fs used part of the year, to use the city form the other part of the year, It is desirable to have elections as frequently as four times in the school year, that as many as practicable may enjoy the moral and educational benefit of being elected and of carrying the responsibility of the offices, ‘8 dozen copes may be made In one operation, as with an ordinary typewriter, ‘The Inventor 1s an Italian.—London Dally Express.

Co-opera- tlon for every good purpose Is developed and team work becomes the ordinary practice. The teacher's authority is not weakened but streneth- ened by the co-operation of the pupils in thelr democratic republle. Teachers Should Co-operate. “It we were to look upon this matter us if It were a mill, the mill would serve no purpose un- 1 48 It should have grist to grind, and In this case the grist Is the government of the children’s con- duct to suggest useful and constructive nctivi- ties for the good of euch child and the comnunt- ty of pupils and of the entire community of which the children are a part. ‘The pupils’ time, minds and energies being fully occupled doing right con- structive things, the amonnt of wronsdoing drops to an almost negligible quantity. What there Is of this ts dealt with by the children In their own courts much more effectually than is possible by any other means in the reach of the teachers, even if corporal punishment is permitted, which Is prohibited by law in some places. “It 1s not to be supposed that the children can handle these social and clvie problems without the same kind of Interest and assistanee by the teachers that is necessary for success In any other school work; nor that the teachers can make the best use of this Inboratory method of moral and civic training without the co-opern- tion of the childven's parents, and, until the teachers have become well accustomed to the new method, they need the suggestions of one who hag had large experience in its use, Co-ordinates With Other Studies, “Does this not add another burden to the teacher's already too heayy load? No, It en- gages the co-operation of the pupils to help the teachers bear thelr burdens, Does it take the time of a recitation each day or once a week? No, but {t co-ordinates with other studies such as English, elvies and history, and 1s that good spirit which proves to be a lubricant for all recitations, for all the machinery of the school, and releases the teachers trom police duty, enabling them to give their whole time, strength and nervous force to teaching, uninterrupted by misconduct and {n- attention. ‘Relieved of the ordinary pull on the nerves and drain of one’s vital strength, helping the children to develop thelr own character and to use the tools and processes of education for thelr own salvation, the teacher's work becomes exhilarating and a joy.” Egyptian Calendar. ‘The Egyptians were a very practical peopte and only went $0 far with a science as it had a very definite, everyday application, Quite early the lunar month appeared a poor standard for the measurement of time, and the year was divided, therefore, into 12 months of 80 days each, and the five remaining days were made feast days, ‘This calendar was established ax early as 4241 B, 0.

The story begins when I first realized that the proper location of a successful business among my people is that place where most of the home-owning, steady and reliable people live. Vine street naturally appealed to me as the main thoroughfare of that class of customers whom I seek to serve. In 1910 when I entered business my sole line consisted of CLEANING, PRESSING and REPAIRING. After a while my customers began to call for patterns for new spring, fall and winter suits. This demand became so great that I next added TAILORING. At that time I took orders for suits, doing the measuring myself. I soon afterwards took up the study of tailoring and have since learned to do certain parts of work on suits in my own show, in exactly the same manner as the larger firms downtown. The addition of tailoring to my business brought me many new customers, some of whom have suits made regularly twice a year, observing that a neat, well-made, tailor-to-fit garment feels better, wears longer and looks "just a little bit different" to the other fellow's clothes. Wasn't it only natural that these customers should soon be calling for ties, collars, shirts (Arrow Brand), underwear, hose supporters, belts, suspenders, socks, handkerchiefs and jewelry and other wearing apparel for men and boys? To accommodate my customers, therefore, I just had to add still another line— GENTS' FURNISHING GOODS. Now you have my story, six long years, read in only a very few minutes.

My experience in Eastern shops will enable me to give better service nad workmanship than when I was here before, and better than you now receive in most other shops here in the city. Everyone will recognize the fact that in either the business or social world, personal appearance is more thina fifty pre cent the cause of one's failure or success. To succeed one must always put one's "best foot forward." You can always do this if your wardrobe is kept in trim by us. You will want us to tailor you a suit or overcoat for the coming season's festivities. Cost no more than ready-mades, but look better and wear longer—$15 to $40. And, we are making a specialty of $5 pants, regular $7.50 values. I solicit your patronage and assure you we will do our best to please you.
