Ralph Shaw Killed In Labor Controversy PAN MISSOURI MEDICAL SESSION--GREAT MEETING THE STAR OF EMPIRE IS NOT COLONEL YOUNG AT WESTERN U ALWAYS WESTWARD. TWELVE Pages VOLUME X. NUMBER 40. HELP Ralph PAN MIS THE STAR OF EMPIRE IS NOT ALWAYS WESTWARD. By J. DALLAS BOWSER. Editor Sun: On reading in your paper a news item telling of the election of Warner T. McQuinn as a member of the Board of Aldermen of Baltimore, I grew remissent, calling to memory a number of young men, who disregarding the poet's injunction that "Westward the Star of Empire Takes Its Way," had left the alluring environments of Greater Kansas City to try their for utnes in lands remote, North, East and South and there made good. More than a generation ago I knew Warner T. McQuinn as a briefless barrister, struggling for bread in Kansas City, Kas, then Old Wyandotte. Three years ago I met him in Baltimore a leading legal light of the Monumental City. Today finds him one of its lawmakers, secure in his profession and the esteem of a large constituency of voters. His Star of Empire for him took its way Eastward. There was William L. Martin, an DR. W. HUBERT BRUCE who was called to Washington on account of the death of his father. Dr. Bruce is one of Kansas City's most progressive young physicians and the Sun extends its deepest sympathy in this hour of bereavement. erstwhile pupil of mine, who later took his degree at Oberlin College, meandered to Chicago, his star directing him Northward, where in addition to a lucrative practice as a lawyer he has been called by the suffrages of a large constituency of both races to fill first the position of South Town clerk and afterward a membership in the legislature of the great state of Illinois. In the Kansas City schools a score or more of years ago a young man was wielding the ferule over the "young idea." Riding the blind baggage to Chicago he matriculated in a Medical College, working for Pullman in summers to earn his board and tuition for the school term. We know Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams, today, as one of the noted physicians of the American commonwealth. Another Kansas City pedagog, refusing to acknowledge that any pentup Utica could contract his powers, carried his diploma from Maharry to Dallas, Texas, far toward the Southern Cross and we have since heard of his eninence as a leading physician af the Lone Star state and of his philanthropic appropriation of $10,000 to his alma Mater at Nashville. Such has been the result of the choice of Dr. John W. Anderson, who else confined himself to the school room might still remain an obstele factor in human affairs and defying his name and fame unwept, unhonored unsung might never have been worthy of a funeral obseque. May we not hope that Dr. I. M. Hornton, who so recently shook the dust of Kansas City from his feet to make Dallas, Texas, his future home, will in due time sustained by Tennyson's faith: "That men may rise on stepping stones "Of their dead selves to higher things." also attain to the heights which his ambition and energy deserve? To the young man of purpose, will, and patience, whither he may journey North, South, East or West, his star of Empire will direct him to the stepping stones that lead to the higher places where men learn to labor and to wait for the achievements that are sure to follow. The Kansas City Sun Bishop N. C. Cleaves, D. D., Presiding Bishop of the Sixth Episcopal Diocese of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church, will preach at Jamison Temple, C. M. E. Church, 1815 Paseo, June 22, at 8:30 P. M. ALL ARE CORDIALLY INVITED. Under an immense tent erected in front of Ward Hall were gathered Bishop Parks, President F. Jesse Peck, the twenty-five graduates of Western University and their four thousand frineds to witness the Commencement exercises. The musical program was superior and the orations stimulating. The Hon. N. C. Crews introduced Col. Young. Even if space allowed, words would fail to convey the impression produced by this inimitable encomium. So when Col. Young arose he was given an ovation that was overwhelming. After wittily commenting on Hon. Crews' epithet, "The acme of achievement," he launched in true soldier fashion on what he termed the basic principles of Negro success—sorrow songs, trust in God, love of mankind, patronage of race enterprises, pride in race, hero worship. Some of the midgets of this wonderful address: I am not ashamed of the old-time religion of my fathers, nor the new-time religion of our bishops. Quit hating; hate gets nowhere. Love, gentleness, kindness, courtesy gets us everywhere. Love black fold, love white folk, yea, love all men. How many here can give several good reasons why they are proud of the black race? I can give several. Here are a few. I am proud that God made me black. The sphinx of Egypt is fashioned with the flatnose and mouth of the black man. No one knows when it was carved from the rock or what early nation or artists fashioned it. We need more knowledge of our history. In Africa I have seen stalwart, erect, handsome black men six and seven feet tall. Their ancestors had kingdoms and civilizations when the Germans were still wearing skins and roaming their trackless forests, centuries before the Roman had visited Britain. I am proud that I belong to a race that in Africa has solved problems that we in America are struggling with today. In Africa among the black nations there is no poverty, no prostitution, no lack of harmony among peoples. I am proud that I belong to a race that is resistant. I am proud that I am of a race that has a higher sympathy for its fellowman, and that has a more beautiful disposition and a more appreciative view of art, literature and culture, in spite of its poverty. Cultivate hero worship. How many know Toussaint L'Overture? I did not hear his name mentioned today. He is the father of free trade. He made the whites of Haiti the equals of his own people and the French regard him as the present soul after Jesus Christ. But we do not have to go far. Here's Groves, your own potato king. I saw Prof. Grisham in the audience a moment ago. He made Lincoln High School. Have you ever been in his library? I have, and until then I thought I knew some German. I found Dr. Grisham consulting German authorities in their own tongue and giving the results of his researches to the boys and girls of Kansas City. We must patronize our own, and our own must price their wares to elicit our patronage. I wish we could appreciate the maxims: Saw wood and say nothing. Life is more than feat and the body than raiment Consider the driver ant. Right is stronger than might and will prevail Despite her initial victories, I knew Germany would be defeated. For there was not God in her plan. The fate of the League of Nations is sealed for the same reason. Colonel Young was escorted from Missouri to Kansas and the University by the Lincoln High School Cadets under the supervision of the military instructor and Professor Thomas J. Taylor, accompanied by Prof. J. R. E. Lee, who had secured the Board of Education the privilege of allowing Lincoln High's entire student body to attend Western University's Commencement. Rev. Holmes, major of the Negro wing of the Kansas State Guard, met the procession near the state line. KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1919. FOOD FOR REFLECTION. By Corporal J. Franklin Bates, U. S. A.—B. H. Sec K., Fort Riley, Kans. Just arrived in the U. S. A. from overseas and while waiting at Fort Riley, Kansas, for discharge, I was delighted to pick up the Kansas City Sun and read the home news the first I have read for over a year. I was indeed interested in an article in your paper dated May 31, by Mrs. R. J. Williams entitled "The Sacred Duty of Negro Men," and wish to congratulate Mrs. Williams on the stand she takes for a more sincere, braver and nobler manhood among the men of our race, the young men especially. I was greatly impressed with the article as doubtless many young men are who read it, but there are two sides to every question—usually the bright side and the dark side, the just and the unjust. The article opened a little wound in my heart that I have tried for the past few years to heal and forget and one that has often come to my mind and caused many hours of grievous thought. While walking down a certain thorfare in Kansas City a few years ago, just about dark, a young white man was walking about three paces ahead of me in the same direction approaching us was a handsome young colored girl. I should judge about twenty years of age, neatly dressed and very intelligent looking. The white man brushed closely by her and uttered something, she turned and said something in reply and from the expression on her face when she again turned towards me, I was led to believe she had resented some sort of insult from him. I immediately injured if the white man had insulted her, intending to call his hand. She politely informed me that she did not think it any of my business what he said to her. I certainly had food for thought for the next few days and tried to conceive what I had made of myself and how I looked in the eyes of the other few white men that happened to pass as I was getting my little "bawling out" and no doubt noticed the little episode. I have lived in Kansas City for the past twelve years and believe I am acquainted with many deplorable cases that would be a shock to Mrs. Williams rather than a surprise if she could see and know them as I have. Some o f the most beautiful young women of our race whose clothes are as fine and fashionable as those of women of any other race, but the source from which they come and from whence the money they bought them cannot be questioned. The answer will not bear telling. How many times have some of our young colored girls entered shops and stores downtown and the clerk in attendance, by chance a white man who will say cute, fly and insinuating remarks and the young lady will only smile instead of resenting them. They are intended for an approach and with that smile she accepts them. When some of our young girls learn to let the color of a man's skin be an impassable barrier between them and their associations, as the white women do. I believe every Negro man will make the supreme sacrifice to uphold it and maintain it. The Negro man has been thrust into a most embarrassing position and when he is reduced by some of the women of his own race and murdered for looking at women at other races, while the white man has full sway, he feels the sting of that perfidy more than any other being. It is true that no race can rise above its womanhood. The white man contends that the white women are sacred to them regardless of nationality, and when all of our women will place that value on their virtue, the innocent will have to suffer no longer with the guilty. Now I do not mean to besmirch the virtue of Negro womanhood with slander, for I believe the purest, noblest and most beautiful women that ever breathed can be found in the Negro race and I do not believe there is one of the millions of young men of the race who would not glady lay down his life to preserve their virtue or resent the insults of degraded white men. But, it is hard to brand some THE MEMBERS OF THE UNION OF THE BLACKS of the Pan-Missouri Medical Society which held a very interesting session in this City this week.

Organdie Is Unequaled for Thin Garments, Because Delicate Tints Appear Frosted. There doesn't need to be anything very new about a thing so utterly satisfactory as a summer frock, notes a New York fashion writer. It need not be a tour de force of the dressmaker's art; less than any other dress does it need to be intricate, elaborate, sophisticated. It is at its best when it is a very simple thing, uncomplicated by thoughts of new lines, ultra modes, latest decrees from Paris. It need only be something to express the individuality of the wearer, and to make everyone who looks upon her feel cool and crisp and rested. It should be a cloud rather than a dress, a cooling color that somehow—perhaps by means of its sash or its shoulder straps—stays all in one place when one would expect it to dissolve into thin air and float away, says Vogue. Organdie is unquenched for thin frocks, because delicate colors in this material appear frosted. Raspberry, lemon, almond—these are the new colors for summer frocks, the colors which suggest the rich or delicate tones of fruit. Just off Fifth avenue there is a little shop which is making a specialty of summer frocks—especially those that one naturally associates with afternoon tea or garden party. They are shown in a wide range of materials which embody all the new shades. The designs are quite simple and, what is more, quite suitable for summer mornings or afternoons. One is agreeably surprised upon entering this shop and examining the merchandise to find ready-made summer dresses that tub well, displaying handiwork and those dainty touches that usually accompany the made-to-order dress. Striped handkerchief linen was used for a dress made up along rather tailored lines. This model is especially pleasing to the women who prefer plain smart frocks for morning wear. CINEMAS MONTREAL & BROADWAY This is delicate white indestructible voile with countess tiers of satin ruffles. The hat of leghorn has a pink brown and flowing pink and blue ribbons. TAKING SHINE OFF GARMENTS Simple Recipe Is Given to Save Apparel That Otherwise Might Be Discarded. Many a woolen garment has been cast into the discard because it was so shiny it was no longer presentable. Yet many times it is possible to remove the shine so that considerably more service can be had from the garment. These are some methods suggested by the home economics workers at the New York State College of Agriculture: Press the wool material on the right side through a wet woolen cloth. The napp of the pressing cloth will pull up the nap of the material being pressed if the nap had not been entirely worn off. Some persons substitute a piece of crinoline for the woolen pressing cloth. Others use a cotton pressing cloth and iron until the pressing cloth is dry. They then wet the cloth again and rub the iron quickly over it. This last operation removes the shine by AN OVER-THE-SKIRT BLOUSE Garment for Summer Wear is Made of Sheer Cotton Volle and Handkerchief Linen. It is no longer necessary to emphasize the fact that the long costume or smoilie blouse has a preferential place in the lineup of fashionable garments. The question now is not at all whether the long blouse is fashionable but rather one of putting as much originality as possible into its designing and development. This type of blouse proves a great aid to the woman who wants to make over a last season frock, using just the best portions of it. The simplest sort of skirt is always the best selection as an accompaniment of the costume blouse, and as gay colorings predominate in many of these blouses the skirt may be of any color. The long blouse shown for summer wear is made of sheer cotton volle, cotton novelty fabrics and lovely handkerchief linen in white and colors. Elbow and three-quarter length sleeves are decidedly approved by BLUE BLOUSE AND HAT STYLE The blouse is of vivid blue and white barred material, all hand made. The hat is of blue straw and satin. The blouse is of vivid blue and white barred material, all hand made. The hat is of blue straw and satin. Cuffs and collar are of white organdie, bound with an edging of the linen cut on the bias. This is one of those touches that give dresses a unique charm. The tie of the organdie is finished in the same manner. This dress is entirely hand made. One may have it in striped linen in different shades, in plain white or in a plain color. CREPE DE CHINE FROM JAPAN Italy and France Also Produce the Favored Fabric—No Factories in China. Crepe de chine, in spite of its name, does not come from China but from Japan, Italy and France. There are no factories for making silk piece goods in China, all the weaving being done by hand. With the exception of ponges the products of the Chinese looms are not popular abroad, except in oriental countries, being too heavy, although the patterns are wonderfully beautiful and the colors exceedingly rich. The ponges are woven in the homes of the peasants, and as they come from many looms no two pieces are ever exactly alike in weight, fineness, color and texture. The stallings come from the Lutung district, and the manshal from the Nigali district. These ponges are made from the wild silk of Manchuria, where the silk worms are not cultivated and fed on mulberry leaves as in the rest of China but feed at will on oak leaves. In the spring the eggs hatch on the branches of the oak trees and the cocoons are gathered about September. On attaining their full growth silk worms seek something to which to attach themselves in order to wind themselves up in their silk envelopes. Having found it the worm spins a thread from five hundred to a thousand yards long, wrapping it around its body as it spins. This takes from thirty-six to forty-eight hours. If left alone the worm's skin hardens, its internal organs disintegrate to a thin jelly, and then begin reorganizing themselves into those of a butterfly. Within a week or ten days it would be a butterfly, and as such would eat its way out through its envelope of silk. Width of Wash Skirts Wash skirts are of medium width, averaging one and three-quarter yards. Pin tucks are being used as trimming, in novel effects such as diamonds, crosses and checks. The very ornate pockets are not promised much popularity, on account of laundry difficulties. There will be side buttoned and front buttoned skirts with large pearl buttons from belt to hem. Indian Head Replaces Linen White Indian head is being found a good substitute for linen in making up women's dresses for the trade. It has the advantage of being far less crushable. steaming, but it properly done does not take out the press. Brushing the cloth vigorously with a stiff brush will sometimes remove the shine. White Wash Skirts. The colored wash skirt is to be a rarity this summer, dealers say. It is to be a white-skirt season, and the skirts will be mostly gaberdine and tricotine, though there is a new skirt material that promises to be popular. Wash satin is its name, though it is a sateen rather than a satin strictly speaking, being pure cotton. Moire Bibbon Hats Large sport hats are made entirely of a moire ribbon in the ciron that is about half an inch wide and is used vertically for the brim both for the upper and the facing, with the edge made of a series of little loops and the crown just plainly stitched in the ribbon. A black directoire poke bonnet has its visor effect emphasized by a dashing bow of black velvet. American designers and by the women themselves. American designers are always feverishly anxious to know what styles the French are showing—what they are recommending, etc., but for several seasons there has been a very noteworthy tendency on the part of American fashion designers to accept more suggestions from the French houses and these to a large extent are modified and Americanized. There is no denying that Paris first brought out the long blouse and that we have been a long time in accepting it. This very thing helps to prove that no longer does the American dressmaker and style designer blindly follow any leader. Filet Work on Sweaters A pretty, new effect in sweaters is produced by the use of filet wool work. The body part is knit in plain stitch with ribbing at the waist, and from there down the wool is crocheted in in filet pattern with a design the same as is used in cotton crochet work. On the shoulders are pieces set in to match the lower part. THE KANSAS CITY SUN. SATURDAY. JUNE 14. 1912 The Eternal Feminine Glows in Gowns A Sport Hats and Others Fashion is inclined to be tolerant and broad-minded this summer allowing several paths to be favored, so long as they lead to the same goal. And the goal in afternoon gowns is styles that are utterly feminine. One may reach it by traveling the rich, sleek, silky way, or take the airy route that leads through clouds of thin, milky materials. Even the silhouette varies according to the character of the fabrics wherewithal we are clothed, Silks float about the figure and elong to it, organises wreathe and froth about it; we have dresses nipped in at the waist and dresses that hang as straight as a chemise, but they are of a daintriness and a luxuriousness that are dear to women. Here are two very dissimilar frocks for afternoon that illustrate the foregoing. One of them is a black and white combination in which georgette crepe makes the upper half and black satin the lower half of a handsome gown. Thread embroidery on the georgette enriches the frock and leads up to the heavy silk cord that lies Sport Hats Because the late summer hat takes its cue from the sport hat, and resembles it more or less, it is sometimes difficult to make up one's mind just which of the last millinery arrivals are to be classed as sport styles. But no one is concerned much about the matter. "Late summer" includes everything the shops show, from now until early fall is ushered in, and "sport styles" are worn almost everywhere. The late summer hat is not burdened with much trimming, for it must contrain to look cool. There are exceptions to this rule in hats and trimmings made of the airiest fabrics, among the loveliest of dress hats, but generally the late summer hat has a flavor of outings—vacations, journeys—and divides popularity with sport styles that serve the same purposes. In the group of hats shown here a leghorn faced with white crepe georgette leans off. It is a simple affair so far as trimming is concerned, for it has a band of ribbon about the crown with flat ornaments set at intervals against it. At the top an organdle hat that will look cool in August weather contents itself with a braided pattern on the top crown and similar motifs on the Soutache Braid. Soutache braiding is heavily applied to many of the new afternoon frocks. The braiding usually matches the georgette in color, although black is sometimes used on dark blue. Untrimmed Hate Selling. Women are attempting home trimming to a large extent, owing to the simplicity of trimming on a great many of the spring hats, if one may judge by the number of untrimmed hats being sold. about the waist and loops over at the back. Elbow sleeves proclaim this a midsummer model. Dotted volle is to be credited with the dainfitness of the frock at the right of the group. It has a narrow underskirt and a long, tucked tunic that is quite full, over it. The full bodice with round neck has three-quarter length, tucked sleeves and fastens at the left front with small round buttons. A dress of this kind without a sash doesn't seem to be in the mind of designers this season, and here we have three long ends of narrow ribbon falling from a bow at the waistline. These gay, futtering ribbons are characteristic of the season. There are many lovely colors to choose from, according to their becomingness, in plain and in figured volles. The latter appear to have the preference, there is something so unpretentious about them. They are enticingly dainty and make it easy to meet the demands of fashion in afternoon gowns. and Others brim at the front, back and sides. There is a crushed band of organdie about the crown. Other materials are used for late summer hats, as printed and embroidered volles, cretonne and batiste. Georgette crepe makes the lovely sport hat at the right of the group with its high, soft crown and smooth brim. A band about the crown made of folds of the crepe is as elegant a finish as the most exacting taste can demand. If you are considering a sport hat give attention to the new and picturesque models called "tapestry hats" that are made of cretonne, with brims faced with braid. They are beautiful and practical and full of color, but untrimmed, except for a band of narrow ribbon, usually of velvet, about the crown. Julia Bottomly Draped Line Is Used. The draped line is used on some of the new skirts. Short, Full Tunic. Many evening gowns feature the short, full tunic. Sailor Suits. When making sailor suits, etc., where bibs of Vs are required, why not make a regular good fitting underwaist, with buttons down back, and collar band? It's always in place. Stretching Hose. If stockings, either wool or cotton, have shrunk so they are too small they can be restored to original size by wetting in warm water and drying over a pair of old shoes if you have no wooden stocking forms. Held In Trust By IZOLA FORRESTER (Copyright, 1919, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Barbara leaned forward as the car turned off Nassau street into Liberty. How narrow it was down here, and how like canyons, with the great dull gray walls towering so closely together on each side of her. She wondered on earth Truesdale could spend half his life in such a place. Yet in a way he was like it, determined and silent. Even before her father died, when she was only twelve, she remembered him as a young man who rarely smiled. Her nunt had always said he was so reliable and steady—qualities which had never recommended him to Barbara's favor. She went up in the elevator now with a feeling of relief that she was twenty-one and his guardianship was ended at last. Allan was alone in his inner office waiting for her, the clerk said. She glanced around it curiously as she sank down in the leather armchair he drew forward. It was tall and narrow and somber like the street outside. Only a flat-topped desk seemed to show any human interest. In a copper urn was a bunch of arbutus, and a little squat silver figure of a Chinese mandarin perpetually made obeisance on an inkstand. "I've been planning to do so many things that I never dared even to mention before." she told him happily. "I want to go somewhere and build myself a wonderful mountain bungalow and have horses and a sort of play ranch. And then I want to give Aunt Cecilia a solid annuity so she won't feel as if her whole life was to be spent keeping one eye on me. And I'd like to just sell out the whole business so I won't have to look after anything at all, and I thought I'd love to found an orphanage or something like that." Allan listened attentively, but with no smile on his close lips. He was marking star shapes on his blotter and watching the clock above her head now and then. It was nearly four. He wondered if he would have time to tell her before Yates arrived. "When Mr. Curtis died his affairs were in a very tangled state," he said, "He always suspected lawyers and his death came so suddenly there was no chance for him to attend to anything or to explain anything." "What was there to explain?" asked Barbara, with a touch of her father's quick pride. "Much," answered Allan tersely. "He had been persuaded to tie up his money in a lot of unsafe speculation, and had borrowed heavily to cover his own outstanding liabilities. These obligations to banks and friends had to be paid out of the estate. A few of us who had been close to him carried ours under interest." "Did father even owe you money?" "Some. I was very glad to help him." He turned his attention to a mass of papers at his elbow, sorting and arranging them for her perusal, while Barbara was undergoing a mental readjustment. It had never occurred to her that Tom Curtis, her father, could possibly be under obligations to any one. He had seemed to rule that end of the state politically, and there had been his railroad, and—oh, it was absurd to talk so. She looked at Allan aggressively. "I don't see how it could be true." "You will find everything here," he told her a bit wearily. "There is nothing for you to worry over, Barbara. You may not be able to found your orphanage, but you could still have a bungalow. Another thing I should tell you before we part as ward and guardian. Paulton Yates has told me you are engaged to be married." Barbara did not look at him this time. Only from his voice she could tell that he did not care one single bit. He went on talking to her in the same impersonal, aloof way he had always used ever since he had found her on the veranda with Paulton. And it had been so perfectly silly to imagine she cared for him seriously. He always took things for granted. There came a call for him in the outer office and he left her alone just as Yates arrived. Allan told him he would find Barbara within. But it was a different Barbara who faced him from the girl he had danced with, ridden with, flirted with for the past year. She was not engaged to him at all she told him indignantly. He had no right to tell her guardian that she was. And Paulton, stung by her tone and manner, laughed at her faith in Truedale. "Everybody knows he's played fast and loose with your money, Bab. What have you got left now? I've always cared for you, you know that, and it doesn't matter about money with me. TAKES NOTHING FOR GRANTED Successful Inventor Studies Over and Improves Upon the Ideas Evolved by Others. The editor of the Scientific American recently interviewed an inventor who for some years past has produced an average of one new device a week. The man's ideas are not limited to any one field, for his inventions include a propeller of new design, a dustless ash sifter, a novel game, and hundreds of other different devices. His theory is that inventions are generally due either to accident or to careful study. Many of the leading inventions can be traced to a chance remark, an accident or a peculiar incident; indeed, there is a wealth of romance in the history of inventions. But the greatest mental stimulus of all is refusing to admit that the given thing is perfect. No matter how good it is; no matter how apparent its perfection seems, or how long it may have existed in its present shape—it can and it must be improved. That makes for progress. The Scientific only I want you to drop Truesdale." only I want you to drop Trespasser. Allan, on the threshold of the outer door, heard her answer, and caught Yates' muttered curse as he left her. It was like him to do it that way he thought, lose his temper and accuse him of wrongdoing. And he was really a very decent, solid sort of fellow who wouldn't make her a bad husband at all, since she wanted money and society. He tried to tell Barbara as much, when suddenly he became aware that the tears were falling down her cheeks as she stared across the table at him. "I think you're perfectly abominable, Allan, to try and marry me off like this after telling me I haven't any fortune or anything. You act as if you were tickled to death to get rid of me and the whole trouble of looking after me. You've让 Paulton talk you into this, make you think I was engaged and everything. I never thought lawyers could be so credulous." She was completely on her dignity, somewhat difficult when one is* only 5 feet 2, and Allan's eyes dwell on her amusedly. He had seen her cry before, often. In fact, she always did when she was specially provoked at him. "I had not thought you would take it so much to heart," he said, quietly. "You will still have a fairly good income left. There is nothing to worry over. And, frankly, I owe everything I am to your father. It was a great privilege that I was able to help him." "I—I am not worrying over that," Barbara faltered. "And I know father trusted you absolutely." "I wish you did one-half as much," said Allan. He waited for her to speak, but there was no response. "I accidentally heard what you told Yates about me. Did you mean it, Bab?" "I told him to go away." "You told him if you ever were engaged to marry anybody it would be me," he repeated her own words to her pitilessly, "You don't need a guardian any longer, but I'm sure you need a husband." Origin of Buttons The Elizabethan era gave vogue to the button and buttonhole, two inventions which may be regarded as important, since they did much to revolutionize dress. The original button was wholly a product of needlework, which was soon improved by use of a wooden mold. The brass button is said to have been introduced by a Birmingham merchant in 1089. It took 200 years to improve on the method of sewing the cloth upon the covered button. Then an ingenious Dane hit upon the idea of making the button in two parts and clamping them together with the cloth between. The most important branch of the button industry in the United States is the making of pearl buttons, the material for which is obtained from shells gathered along the Mississippi river. The industry has grown up within the last twenty years. Fifteenth Chief Magistrate Fifteenth Magistrate. On the 23rd of April in 1791, James Buchanan, fifteenth president of the United States, was born at Stoney Batter, Pa. Buchanan was nominated by the Democratic party in 1856. He won and was inaugurated on March 4, 1857. His administration, which came directly before the outbreak of the Civil war, was generally thought to be overlent toward the activities of the southern leaders. On February 4 during the last month of Buchanan's term in 1861, the Confederate States of America, formed of the states which had seceded from the Union, was organized at Montgomery, Ala., Buchanan died at the age of 77 at Wheaton, Pa., in 1868. All Have Right to Success All Have Right to Success. Every normal individual is an inheritor of success; it is his birthright. When one fails to grasp his full portion he is going contrary to nature's laws, just as sure as does the man who ruins his prospects by liquor or opium or evil associates. Nearly every human being is born into the world a success, and he continues to be a success until he, knowingly or unknowingly, opposes the general laws of the world. Such evasions as "lack of time," "no money," "no opportunity," are shameful, they are unnatural, they are untrue, and they increase the population in the community of failures.—Exchange. Caught in the Register An incident at a recent wedding I attended was rather funny to all but the blushing bride. The bridegroom had entered at the chancel door and was waiting for her at the altar. And he had a long wait, for half way down the aisle the bride's heel caught in the register. After twisting and turning to no avail she was forced to kneel down and remove her pump.—Chicago Tribune. Ivy Benefits Walls. Tests made in Europe have led experts to decide that ivy benefits rather than injures stone walls, on which it grows by drawing excess moisture from them. American tells of another inventor who refused to consider the violin as a perfected instrument, despite the fact that it has not changed its form in the last 300 years or more. Not long ago he brought out a new type of violin that met with instant success. Another man believed that shoes are far from perfect. Why should they not be ventilated? Physicians say that lack of air accounts for most foot troubles. Why not let the feet breathe? The man went to work and finally perfected a simple shoe ventilator. The true inventor takes nothing for granted. Perfection, to his way of thinking, is only a comparative term. His job is to make "perfect" things still more perfect. Youth's Companion. Here's a Cheery Chap. The man who has enemies amounts to something. He is a live man. He is a fighter. People don't kick a corpse. A live man can swim against the current; a corpse floats down without hindrance. God bless our enemies! We love them. They are making life worth while.—Boston Transcript. IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. B. Teach of Teacher of English in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.) (Copyright, '919, by Western Newspaper Union.) LESSON FOR JUNE 15 PRAYER. LESSON TEXTS-Matt. 6:5-15; Luke 18:1-14 GOLDEN TEXT-Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God-Phill. ADDITIONAL MATERIAL-Gen. 18:23-33; Ex. 32:31; Matt. 29:34; Luke 11:26; John 17:1-26; IThes. 6:17; James 5:13 PRIMARY TOPIC-Talking With the Heavenly Father. JUNIOR TOPIC—Jesus Teaches How to Pray. INTERMEDIATE TOPIC—Prayer a Privilege and a Duty. SENIOR AND ADULT TOPIC—The Christian Conception of Prayer. 1. The Proper Motive in Prayer (Matt. 6:5-8). The righteousness which counts with God is doing right deeds with the right motive. Righteous as the act of praying is it may be an abomination unto God: 1. If it be to be seen and heard of men (v. 5). Much of the public praying is false—when there is more thought of what the people think than of what God thinks. In praying the individual is dealing with God, therefore if he be engaged it is to attract men's attention it is blasphemous. It is not wrong to pray on the street corner and in the synagogues; that which is condemned is doing it to be seen of men. 2. If there be the use of vain repetitions (v. 7). This does not mean that we should ask but once, for we have examples of Christ and of Paul praying three times for the same thing (Matt. 25; 39:46 II Cor. 12:7-8), but meaningless repetitions as done by the heathen. The reason assigned is that "your Father knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask him" (v. 8). God is pleased with true prayer (v. 6). We should have a real desire for fellowship with God. Since prayer is a transaction of the soul with God, we should go to our inner chamber, where only God can hear, and there commune with him. II, The Model Prayer (Matt. 6:9-15). 1. Right relationship. "Our Father." Only those who have become children of God by faith in Jesus Christ (Gal. 3:26) can pray aright. 2. Right attitude. "Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come." When we realize that we have been delivered from the power of darkness and translated into the kingdom of his dear Son (Col. 1:13) by being made the children of God we cannot help pouring out our souls to him in gratitude and praise, longing for the coming of his kingdom. 3. Right spirit (1) That of trust which looks to him for daily bread. (2) That of love which results in the forgiveness of others. God will not listen to the prayer of the one who has an unforgiving spirit. (3) That of holiness which moves us to pray not to be led in temptation, and longs to be delivered from the evil one. 4. The ascription of praise. "Thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever." III. Persistence in Prayer (Luke 18:1-18). The teaching of this parable is that men ought always to pray and not to faint (v. 1). The context shows that praying should be the business of the church while the Lord is absent. Having referred to the coming of the Lord at the close of the preceding chapter he uses this parable to enforce the obligation of the church under the figure of a widow crying day and night unto God. Though the unjust judge had neither fear of God nor regard for man he avenged her of her enemies. Much more, then, will the tender loving Father, God, avenge his own elect (v. 7). God is pleased with those who persistently pray, or as popularly expressed, "pray through." IV. The Proper Attitude in Prayer (Luke 18:9-14). This is brought out in striking contrast by two men praying. The Pharisee's sense of self practically excluded the consciousness of God. The poor publican had a most keen sense of God, and therefore sought his mercy. The Pharisee presented personal credentials, while the publican cast himself upon God's mercy. The publican was justified, while the Pharisee was rejected. Let us come into the presence of God with humility, for God is holy. Winning Out If you are living and working earnestly and honestly for what seems to you the right and good thing between man and man, and man and God, then you may rest assured of this, that the most tremendous forces in all the universe are somehow working behind and with you. The increasing and unfolding purposes of all the ages, the labors of heroic men and women of countless patient generations, the very ultimate powers in the great universe, that God himself must have made, are all somehow linked up with the alms and purposes and ideals that are yours. Is there, then, any chance of failure or ultimate disaster? According to Nature The leaven in the measure of meal did not need to struggle and strive to transform its surroundings, nor to be anxious about results. It was what it was, and because it kept on being leaven and nothing else it changed the whole mass. It is Christianity which is to leaven the world—the daily living Christianity of those who belong to Christ. Easy to Commit Sin It is a great deal easier to commit a second sin than it was to commit the first, and a great deal harder to repent of a second, than it was to repent of the first.—Benjamin Whichcote. TALES FROM BIG CITIES Siamese Music Creates Discord in the Cavalry SAN FRANCISCO—His real name is Leillessiusseusses Willimimiminizna Hurrazzisteizzi. That may have had considerable to do with it. Anyway, piano fantasies that outshine minstrelsy provoked jealousy on the part of negro troops that led to the binding. lulu two weeks ago. His seven years' study of the piano and pipe organ was revealed to the Y. M. C. A. with the result of his participation in a hut program. His deft, alluring charm in the fantasies, semioralent, that he created from the keys, won admiration of the troops and nightly thereafter he played for them. The white troops prevailed upon officers to have him quartered with them and this was done. This provoked leoousy on the part of some negro troops and a guard was stationed at D'Vldio's quarters that night. The following night the feeling subsided and he was asked to participate in a hut minstrel show by the negro troops. His playing evoked applause that disrupted the program and persistent recalls and encores crowed out stunts planned by the negro troops. Jealousy prompted one negro the next afternoon to waylay D'Vldio near an outbuilding with a razor. The Siamese with one blow knocked out the negro. That night he was scheduled in a boxing match and just before the match he was attacked, bound to a tent pole and bludgeoned. Pa Tibbles Is a Thorough Man of Business. But— ST. LOUIS.—"Pa is a thorough business man, understand," says Ma Tibbles. "But he doesn't believe there are any confidence men in the world. At least he didn't. That's pa." Pa is Charles E. Tibbles, "the compound king" he knew a good thing when he saw it. Messrs. Adam and Morgan allowed pa was some sport and had a great business head, and they bought him choice things to eat and drink and smoke. They brought him to St. Louis for a good time. Two operatives of a Chicago detective agency saw Mr. Adam and Mr. Morgan, and immediately wired: "Who is C. E. Tibbles? He's about to be trimmed." Ma Tibbles was consulted and she thought it would be a nice idea to have the operatives watch things. Pa went to Chicago and got a certified check for $25,000. He didn't know the operatives were hovering about him. He didn't know they were with him when he went to St. Louis. Neither did Adam and Morgan. So it was quite surprising that just as pa was about to hand over the money in nice new bills the door opened and in walked the operatives. Lived in the Same House; Silence for 16 Years Lived in the Same House; Silence for 16 Years CHICAGO.—"It's a nice day, Amalia." "Yes, it is, Thomas, but it looks like rain." The foregoing observation on the weather between Thomas B. Galbraith, 6648 Harvard avenue, and his wife was the first time they had spoken to each other in 16 years. ward avenue, which they have occupied since their marriage in 1885. It was to this house Galbraith brought his bride, and at the time it was built it was called the "fineest residence in Englewood." Their two children were born here. John is married and Grace is the wife of W. S. Negley. The origin of the trouble between Galbraith and his wife was the desire of the latter to purchase a Michigan farm for their son when he was fifteen years old. Mrs. Galbraith wanted the farm deeded to the son and the husband declined. The wife then went to live in two rooms on the upper floor of the residence. Galbraith occupied the rest of the house. All the servants were discharged. Mrs. Galbraith did her own work. The husband performed the same duties for himself. The years passed but neither spoke to the other.

George is the aloof individual on the left, while Martha, who is the same size, is shown approaching the trough. In the background is the rear of the White House. POULTRY "A few baby chicks well taken care of will give better results than double the number that are neglected," says H. R. McLean of the Colorado Agricultural college. "Keep the hen and chicks free from lice and in comfortable quarters, otherwise look out for losses. "Feed the baby chicks a little feed after they are 36 to 48 hours old. More chicks are killed the first three days after hatching by overfeeding than during any other period. "If you keep the body growing you will find no chicks with drooping wings. Skim milk that is allowed to clabber furnishes the best animal protein for the growing chick. Give it to them slightly warm and start them out on it. The lactic acid helps clear the intestinal tract and a lot of bowel trouble is avoidable by its use. If fed in connection with bread crumbs, Johnny cake or a good commercial chick feed you can give them all the milk they need without harmful results. "Don't change from sour skimmed milk to sweet or buttermilk, but feed one kind to avoid throwing them off their feed. "Chicks should have access to good, clean, coarse sand or the fine commercial chick grit." Rat Skins Make Leather Suitable for Some Kinds of Gloves and Mittens There is not enough leather to go round. Fish skins are susceptible of tanning, and there are rat skins which make good leather, large enough for many purposes. They would do for some kinds of gloves and mittens, says the Little Journal. They may be sewed together to make cloaks and other garments, and they are not too small to be available for parts of boots and shoes. The general rule as to leather is that the thicker the fur is the poorer the hide and vice versa. According to this, rat hide would produce superior leather. Somebody with the gift of guessing computes that there are 100,000,000 rats in this country, and the damage they would feed a good sized army. It would take at least 5,000 skins a day to supply a small modern tarnery. Nobody wants the rats; they belong to anybody that can catch them. That is the only problem—to catch them and skin them, and then deliver the goods. Only 125 Cases of Total Blindness Among Yanks There were only 125 cases of total blindness and fewer than 4,000 amputations in the American forces engaged in the war, it is stated by the bureau of war risk insurance in an announcement concerning the bureau's activity in supplying crippled soldiers and sailors with artificial limbs and in otherwise caring for the wounded and disabled. Not even all of the 125 cases of total blindness cited, it is stated, have yet been declared as permanent by the medical officers in charge. Relative to amputations, denial is made, on the authority of Surgeon General Ireland and Col. Charles Insects Cause a Billion Dollar Loss Yearly, Says Agricultural Department Destructive insects in the United States have a food bill of $1,000,000,000 annually, according to department of agriculture figures. That amount is lost each year because of insect depredations on various farm crops and fruits. In addition to this, there is a large loss to live stock from such pests as biting flies, parasitic flies, ticks, mites and so forth. In 1916 destructive insects caused a loss of $430,204,300 in cereal crops and were responsible for a loss of $116,230,500 in hay crops. The insect damage to the tobacco crops was $14,900,800 and in vegetables $199,414,600. They caused a loss of $8,433,800 in sugar crops and a loss of $141,264,300 in fruit. The loss caused by them in all other crops was $29,649,700. It has been found that vegetable and fruit crops suffer most heavily from the ravages of insects and a 20 per cent loss in vegetable crops and a GOOD JOKES E. Banks, chief medical officer of the war insurance risk insurance that there were any cases in which men lost both arms and both legs. Zoo Superintendent Finds New Husband for Mourning Widow in Alligator Family For many weeks Cy De Vry, superintendent of the Lincoln Park Zoo at Chicago, watched with utmost concern the ravages of melancholia upon the person and psychology of Desdemona, the brunette alligator, who some time since was bereft of her husband. He succumbed to influenza. They were inseparable and had achieved a oneness of concord rarely encountered in the domestic domain. The unalloyed bliss they enjoyed was manifest to all. It was natural that with the visit of the grim reaper the weaker vessel, deprived at one fell stroke of prop and stay, should mourn deeply. But De Vry thought time would as sage her grief. In this he was in error. After a consultation he decided that but one hope remained—to obtain a new husband. In the Florida jungles there was captured Othello, a blackamoor. If Cupid's darts prove potent the gnawing grief wearing away the wild ow's heart will be eradicated forever and a day. Women May Be Members of the American Legion Women who served in various war service work, including yeomanettes, army nurses and marine corps girls, are eligible for membership in the American legion, the association of veterans of the world war, according to a statement issued from the national headquarters of the organization. "Cholly, do you ever intend to quit smoking cigarettes?" "Death boy, why should I?" "Because if you don't they will kill you." "Well, when they do, deah boy, I'll quit." Bill Rendered: Dalton—You should pay more attention to your personal appearance, old chap. Remember that clothes make the man. DeBroke—Yes, but for me the man refuses to make any more clothes. A Quid Pro Quo. A Quilt "Why do you women go to bargain sales to get something for nothing?" "Why do you men go to poker clubs to do the same thing?" No Escape "Ah, laws. They prize of the time when dreams come true. Before I was married I used to hope every day I'd meet the lady before the day ended." "And now that you are married?" "I gotta meet her. Can't get away from it." 30 per cent loss in fruit crops is probably a minimum figure for these two ably a minimum figure for these two. A further study of this question has revealed the fact that in 1916 the chinch bug alone was responsible for a loss of $00,000,000. The grasshopper caused a loss of $50,000,000 and the Hessian fly was charged with being responsible for $40,000,000 slump. In addition to the direct losses in growing crops, forests and live stock, insects are responsible for depredations on stored grain, other farm products and household supplies. All these have brought the total annual loss from insects in the United States up to $1,000,000,000. Cause of Bowlegs. Bowlegs in growing children are caused by lack of milk. Walking at too early an age or too often has nothing to do with it. So declares a Pennsylvania county agriculturist. He says that scientific investigations show that all children should have milk, one quart a day at least, from the time they walk until they are full grown. tion. The announcement says that so many inquiries came from women who served during the war that it was decided to issue a formal notice. Preparations are under way to form the first post of women who had worn the uniform of their country. Whether or not the yeomanettes will unite in a post with the army nurses or whether the women will join the posts formed by the service men is to be left to the discretion of the local posts. THE WORSHIP OF NATURE The harp at Nature's advent strung Has never ceased to play; The song the stars of morning sung Has never died away. And prayer is made and praise is given, By all things near and far; The ocean looketh up to heaven, And mirrors every star. Its waves are kneeling on the strand, As kneels the human knee, Their white locks bowing to the sand, The priesthood of the seal. They pour their glittering treasures forth, Their gifts of pearl they bring. And all the listening hills of earth Take up the song they sing. The green earth sends her incense up From many a mountain shrine; From folded leaf and dewy cup She pours her sacred wine. The mists above the morning rills Rise white as wings of prayer; The altar curtains of the hills Are sunset's purple air. The winds with hymns of praise are loud Low with sobs of pain The tow of the cloud, The dropping tears of rain. With drooping head and branches crossed The twilight forest grieves. Or speaks with tongues of Pentecost From all its sunlit leaves. The blue sky is the temple's arch, Its transept earth and air, The music of its starry march The chorus of a prayer. So Nature keeps the reverent frame With which her years began. And all her signs and voices shame The prayerless heart of man. Abdications in Germany Will Include Total of 278 of Royal Families A German professor figures out that the abdication and dethronements in Germany include 278 persons. Bavaria leads, with one king, one queen, 15 princes, 16 princesses, five dukes and one duchess. Prussia has sent 33 royalties into exile, including the emperor, the empress, 20 princes and 11 princesses. Brunswick is at the bottom of the list, with only the ducal couple and their three children. The two tiny principalities of Reuss, whose area is hardly one-three hundredth part of that of Prussia, have exiled 36 royalties. The principality of Lippe, only about 20 square miles larger than the Reuss states, had a royal numbering 24 persons. Most extraordinary is the case of Schaumberg-Lippe with its area of 130 square miles where there was nearly one royal per sonage for every five square miles. These included the reigning prince seventeen princes and seven princesses. Dashing Joy. Mabel—George gave me such a lovely diamond engagement ring.

WASHINGTON SIDELIGHTS Farmers Want the Daylight-Saving Law Repealed WASHINGTON—"By Mr. Romjue: a bill (H. R. 282) to repeal the daylight saving law; to the committee on interstate and foreign commerce. By Mr. Andrews of Nebraska: a bill (H. R. 283) to repeal section 3 of an act the urban communities think it is a good thing. It is merely human nature that those who want it repealed are making the bigger showing. Representative Mann of Chicago says of the general situation: "The people in Chicago and other cities favor a continuance of the daylight saving law, while those in the country are for its repeal." The national war garden commission put the case this way: "An idea of what this extra hour of daylight meant to the war gardeners of the country may be gathered from the actual amount of working time it presented as a free gift to the home food producers. This extra hour given each afternoon to the war gardener meant a total of 182 hours during seven months of 26 working days each. Multiplying this figure by the number of war gardeners in the United States—5,285,000—it gives the stupendous aggregate of 601,870,000 hours of time, or 329,407 years of eight-hour days." Birdmen With Cameras Are Mapping the Country Birdmen With Cameras Are Mapping the Country TO GATHER by photography all the materials for a map, including the elevations of hills and mountains, while flying over it in an airplane will be possible within a few years, in the opinion of E. H. Moffit of the geological which will not yet show the elevations in any distinctive or reliable way. They have, however, devices with which they are experimenting on the problem of topographic mapping from the air. The importance of this use of the camera and airplane in mapping can scarcely be exaggerated. The geological survey, the coast and geodetic survey, the national park service and other branches of the government doing field work spend thousands of dollars every year in making maps. Until a few years ago this entailed going into the country and inboriously mapping the topography by the plane-table method—work requiring much time and fine weather. Now that the plane has become a stable and reliable craft, the inspiring possibility opens up of mapping the wild mountain regions of Alaska, for example, with detail and accuracy while passing over them at the rate of 100 miles an hour. This will be as far removed from the method of the old-time topographer toiling through the wilderness with his load of instruments as the automobile is from the ox cart. Helgoland Island May Be Made a Bird Sanctuary ONE of the possible ironies of the great war is the use of Helgoland island as a bird sanctuary. At a recent meeting of the British Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, a resolution to this effect was passed and the propos scarcely be imagined. During the war the little island was a bristling fortress. It was the keystone of Germany's naval defense. For years before the war it had been prepared for precisely the role it played. The handful of inhabitants were isolated from the rest of the world and naval works of suspendable magnitude were carried out. Throughout the war Holland seemed as a great stronghold of German might. It was a name hated in Great Britain. Its strength forbade any great attack on the German coast and gave the Germans a handy base for their raids against England.

One class is composed of those who are going back to succor relatives in the war-devastated regions and who intend to return to America, in most instances bringing their kin with them before the threatened passage of an immigration suspension law. The other class comprises natives of the liberated countries of Europe, such as Czecho-Slovakas and Jugo-Slavas, who migrated to America to escape tyranny and now intend to return in the belief that they can live peaceably and happily under the conditions of the new regime.

Lincoln Institute, the Normal, College, Industrial, and Agricultural State School for Negroes has ended another school year and its Forty-seventh Commencement has passed into history. There has been so much of harmony of thorough accord and sympathy between the faculty and student body, and between the school and the community, that one can but feel that this commencement marks a fitting close to one of the best, if not the best, in the history of the school. The townspeople thronged the campus and buildings daily, a larger number of alumni than usual were present, while relatives and friends of the graduates and students were, of course, on hand in goodly numbers. The initial feature of Commencement was the Declaration Contest in the Institute Auditorium, May 24th at 8 p.m. There are four literary societies at the school, namely, The Pierian, The Phyllis Wheatley, The Senate, and Little Women. The faculty, desiring to encourage and foster public speaking among the students, offered a first prize of Ten Dollars, and a second prize of five dollars, to the two students excelling in a declaration contest. Each society had a "try-out" and selected two students to represent it at the final contest. The result was a veritable feast of eloquence, so ably did each of the eight members acquit himself or herself, as the case might b. So well did each do that the judges, two Jefferson City ministers and the superintendent of public schools, were hard put to render a decision. At length, however, they agreed upon Muriel Lucas of St. Paul, Minn., as winner of the first prize, and Harley Davis of Nevada, Mo., the second prize The student entertainment, held at the Second Baptist Church, May 30th was the second number of Commence DR.

It was made up of selections from the Institute Orchestra an excellent rendition of the Sextette from Lucia for left hand, on the piano several readings, and some choice vocal numbers. The large audience was enthusiastic in its praise of the program. The next night marked the exhibition of the department of music. The school auditorium was crowded early treat and the program in every way was up to their expectations. There was a range of piano numbers from a trio "Ting-a-Ling" by tiny tots from the Model School, to a two piano selection "Marche Hongroise," by two very proficient young ladies from the Normal Department. There were vocal solos, duets, quartettes and an octet; there was a violin number also by two little folks, and there were several selections by the Orchestra. All of the pupils displayed much regard for technique, as well as for tone quality and they reflected credit upon the department. The following day, Sunday, was indeed a busy one. Bright and early the students assembled in the auditorium for the last meeting of their Sunday School. A special program had been arranged as a fitting close of the years work and each of the classes had one or more representatives. After responsive reading of the lesson, Bible notations, and the usual opening exercises, some splendid musical numbers were given and there was a symposium, "How the Sunday School Has Helped Me." The letter was particularly enjoyable, both teachers and students entering heartily into the discussion and adding much for thoughtful consideration and inspiration. At 3:30 the same afternoon was the Baccalaureate Sermon, and for this a large gathering of Jefferson folk assembled in the auditorium. Promptly at 3:00 o'clock, in answer to the bugle's stirring summons, the line of march was formed on the campus under the direction of the Commandant --- of the boys and the physical directress for girls. It was indeed an inspiring sight as the boys, in their khaki colored uniforms, and the girls in their blue skirts, and the waists, with blue ties and white shoes, marched by twos, with springy steps to the entrance of the Academic building and then parted on either side of the wide walk to allow the President, faculty graduates and Alumni to pass through their line and enter the Auditorium. The President and dignified Senior Norunals in caps and gowns, the Senior Highs in the school uniform, together with the tasty decoration of the vast hall itself, altogether made the scene one long to be remembered. There was, however, something else never to be forgotten by all present, and that was the sermon itself. Taking his text from Philippians 3rd Chapter, 13:14 verses, the Rev. Mr. Edwin W. Behner, Pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Jefferson City, delivered an exhortation that was remarkable for its sincerity, probity and truth. In his opening remarks he cited several successful men. Ford, Edison, our own Booher Washington, and Lincoln, and inured to the secret of their success. Going further, he showed the secret of a great life to be threefold, and under the following main divisions he delivered his address to the young people before him: (1) A Whole-hearted Concentration, (2) A Wise Forgetfulness, and (3) A Right Anticipation. Under the first head was brought out the value of decision, of confidence in self, and the cultivation of the belief that failure is more often the industry of lack of application and industry than of lack of ability. Not favoritism and not special talent were the usual attendants upon success, but on the contrary, a belief in one's self and a wise concentration upon the task or duty in hand. The second topic developed the necessity of forgetfulness, forgetting ones blunders, sins, losses, be they personal, financial, or physical, and ones injuries, for the dwelling upon and brooding over disagreeable things blights one's life and drags one down like a ball and chain. But, the warning ran, it is also needful to forget one's successes lest harm come from too much thought of them. The proper anticipations for self, for school, and for the world were brought out in the third topic so ably that the hearers gained many thoughts concerning the good they may look forward to doing. The idea that the graduates carried their own destiny, that of their school, and of their fellowman was beautifully illustrated and they were urged to be worthy of their trust to dignify their laborers wherever they might be, and to live lives so rich in Christian virtue that their souls would of a truth be left receptacles for the Holy Spirit. Monday afternoon at 3:30 the Model School had its closing exercises and uite creditably did the little folk acute themselves. Part 1 of the program consisted of a patriotic chorus, words of welcome, several declamations and the main feature, a Pantomine portraying successive emotions, acted by twelve little girls. Part II consisted of an operetta, "Florinda." in one act. The stage was prettily decorated, and the fairies, witches and wood-choppers sped blightely here and there in their search for the little lost maiden. Some excellent singing was one of the features of the play. The Senior High Class Day exercises were held at S P. M. Monday evening and the auditorium was beautifully decorated with the class colors, purple and white. In accordance with the spirit which has hovered over us for the last four years, a camouflage program had been arranged, partaking of a military nature. And so, with the usual class exercises cleverly maserading under terms of camp and camp life, and with several of the popular war songs parodied, the senior highs gave a very good account of themselves. Shakespearees "A Mid-Summer Night's Dream" was presented by the Junior Normal students Tuesday night. The stage was indeed a woodland bower wherein the fairies reveled, the commoners exhibited their sense of the drama, the lovers loved, and Puck, the playful sprite, crisscrossed their plans and for a time muddled things sadly. All came right in time, however, and the comedy ended with everything and everyone in rich accord. The play was particularly well staged and rendered. From 9 to 10 a.m. Wednesday morning was given over to Inspection of the school. Both inside and out of the various buildings were given a rigid scrutiny by faculty, students, alumni and friends. The campus, with its well-kept lawn and beautiful flower beds was an attractive sight, but with in the walls of the buildings was even more to charm the eye. Each room or department contained a carefully worked out exhibit of the work done in it for the school year. The different features were, of course, as unlike as they were unlue, and one found much to marvel at and admire as he went from building to building and THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1919 from room to room. Each exhibit was an epitome of the years faithful striving, arranged tastefully, and giving forth a clear idea of the aims and ideals of the work. In the afternoon of the same day the boys displayed their knowledge of military drill on the campus. Various formations and other tactics were carried out successfully, and the boys brought forth many expressions of praise from the assembled spectators. Aet. 3:30 very rarely gathered in the auditorium to view the Gymnastics Exhibition, which was indeed a treat. Drills, gymnastics exercises, folk dances and solo dances followed one another in rapid order and the pupils, from the little people to the more advanced ones, displayed remarkable grace and skill. ednesday evening in the auditorium class day exercises. There was the usual history, oration, advice to lower classmen, prophecy, will, and the like each given in a commendable manner. The members of the class presented to the school two beautiful pictures "The Angelus" and "The Gleaners" as token of their love and appreciation to their Alma Mater. Mr. Richardson responded fittingly to the presentation. The closing number "Farewell to Lincoln" was sung with much feeling and pathos as the graduates realized for many this was indeed a lasting farewell. The auditorium was prettily decorated with the class colors, purple and old gold, and the class motto "To Conquer or Die" was dis played in large letters directly above the platform. Thursday was a busy day, the first half of it being given over to the Industrial Exhibition and the afternoon and evening to the Alumni. The former was held in the auditorium and consisted of actual demonstrations from the various industries, such as Shoemaking and Repairing, Laundering, ulding a Wheel, Preparing a Missouri Meal, a Demonstration of Banding and Culling Chickens. The pupils talked readily as they worked, explaining fully the various steps and why they were taken. They showed an easy familiarity with their subjects and were in themselves the best argument for the continuation and expansion of industrial learning at Lincoln, in the afternoon the "Old Grads" held their business meeting and formed plans for extended Alumni activities for another year. The new officers were elected and resolutions supporting and commending President Richard ardson in his first year's work at the school were drawn up. At T.50 in the auditorium the Alumni program was given, consisting of musical and literary numbers, chief of which was the address by Judge T. F. Bradley of Kansas City, Kas, class of '85. The speech was a masterpiece of scholarship and intellect and reflected credit to Mr. Bradley. Immediately following the program came the Alumni Banquet held in the Institute Dining Hall, which had been so decorated that it seemed fairy hands must have worked to transform it. The menu was an elaborate one and toothsome in the extreme. Commencement Day, the one toward which all the events had been pointing, dawned bright and clear. The activities began with a class breakfast tendered the Senior Normals by the Junior Normals. Following this the Commencement line of march was observed on the day of the Baccalaureate Sermon, the entrance was made in the Institute Auditorium. There were only four student literary numbers, given by the three highest ranking Senior Normal students, and the valedictorian of the Senior High class. They acquired themselves well. The Commencement Oddness was delivered by Prof. R. H. Cole, of St. Louis, who took "Loving and Thinking" as the keynote to his discourse. There was much of wholesome advice, of practical experience and of rare wisdom as he talked, fitting each thought with a useful application to our race in particular and driving each home with an apt illustration. Next in order came the awarding of diplomas to fifty-five young people and the presentation of prizes or excellence in the various phases or departments of school life. There were also announcements of several new prizes for next year, after which the audience sang the school song, and the forty-seventh annual Commence was ended. Immediately after the exercises came the dedication of a suite of rooms in the Boys Dormitory to the memory of Elbert Paul Damel, an alumnus of the school, who paid the supreme sacrifice to his country in the Y. M. C. A. work last fall. The rooms, coily fitted for rest and reading, and which fill a long felt need in the boys building, typify and cement the closer feeling and community of interests of the town people and the school, since the idea originated with, and the expense entailed in carrying it out, was borne by the ladies of the Modern Precillies Art Club of the city. After the dedicatory exercises, the Club ladies held a reception for the faculty, alumni, graduates and visit- ors. Dainty refreshments were served. The guests went from here to an informal reception given by President Richardson at his residence in honor of the graduates, alumni and visitors. It was delightfully free from stiffness or formality and the moments speed rapidly as new acquaintances were formed and good-byes were said. CLOSING WEEK ACTIVITIES AT THE LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL. Beginning with a 4-act drama, "At the End of the Bainbow," presented by the Junior Class, which was greeted by an enthusiastic audience, the closing week activities at the Lincoln High School were superb. Among those to be seen at the rendition of this play were: Students from Westport High School, what had also presented the same play and who were outspoken in their praise. An excerpt from the Kansas City Star reads: "As a general rule the men and women who make up an audience at school theatricals nestle down in their seats with firm expectation of witnessing an amateur production and because, as a general rule they are the proud relatives of the participants they applaud genertuly and go home delighted with the achievement. But those who sat in the auditorium of Lincoln High School (and surely they were not all relatives since there was a good number of white people included) must have been disappointed; for the acting was good throughout the play." Much credit is due Mr. J. O Mtrisson, instructor in English, in making the play a success. Sunday, the entire student body, the Steering Committee, the faculty, graduates and members of the Alumni Association formed at Nineteenth and Tracy and marched to Allen Chapel, where Dr. William H. Thomas preached a master sermon. A timely plea with some advice made the sermon one long to be remembered. The senior class play, "A Midsummer Night's Dream," was presented to a large audience Monday night at the Auditorium Theatre. The acting of the pupils was of an unusual grade and was well received. Joseph Johnson, Ethel Manos, Bernice Lancaster and Edra Williams were especially good in their parts. The annual J. W. Perry prize speaking contest was held Tuesday night in the school's auditorium. Ethel Manos of the senior class, was awarded first prize, speaking on "Great Women in American History." The second prize was awarded to Marshall Love, who held the interest of the audience, speaking on "Public Ownership of Public Utilities." Wednesday, June 11, the annual play was given and a reception tendered the senior class.

SATURDAY. JUNE 14, 1919 Friday, June 20 BACCALAUREATE SERMON TO LINCOLN HIGH AND NURSES' TRAINING SCHOOLS LAST SUNDAY BY REV. W. H. THOMAS. (Stenographically reported by our own force.) "Ye are not your own for ye are bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit which are God's."—1 Cor. v1:19:20 Education for Service. "Through a night of agony and tears, the world has come to the dawn of a new day. The happenings of the past four years are peened with an unseen hand, but don't talk about the pen, but talk about the hand that holds it. The world needs to wake up and see what God is doing, and then ask, what does he want us to do? What does he want me to do? "Education should not make us self fish or place us in our own estimation above other people. Education of it self, does not of necessity make us so. If we are superior to other people, we will not prove it by pride, selfish and imperious bearing and a looseness, but by modesty, simplicity and of width [Picture of a man with glasses and a suit]. REV. WILLIAM H. THOMAS, D.D. Who delivered the Baccalaureate sermon based upon the same text to two graduating classes at the same time Lincoln High School and the City Hospital Nurses Training School, and the more than two thousand people who heard him unanimously declared it was a matchless effort. to be of service. The world has no use for the educated pharassee who passes by on the other side. "Some one has said that in Germany that the aim of the school is scholarship, in England the aim of the school is culture; but in America, the aim is service. In the language of Whittier 'The dear delight of doing good.' The world was never so much in need of what you have to give as it is today. Not your own for you are bought with a price, therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's. "Our text naturally divides itself into three parts: 1. Ye are not your own. Does these words sound strange in these days 2. O. no, it ought not to be hard for any American or ally to understand, and admit this claim, non your own. Our country said during the war as she entered our homes and laid its hands upon our boys, and in many instances the only boy, and sent him off to the battlefield to suffer, to bleed and die. No one dare to stand up and dispute our country's claim. No your own says education, to the man who has labored and toiled, and burnt midnight oil and discovered some occult law of nature, or has invented something useful to humanity, and he gives up his invention or discovery without complaint to the service of mankind everywhere. No your own says Christianity, you belong to God, and this war which has just closed has helped me to find God. actions have found out that armies march in their stomachs but they fight in their souls. 11. The statement of a truth, ye are purchased with a price. We expected great things of Turkey when she had her revolution some years ago when the Turks came into power, but the revolution brought no great change of the coming value to Turkey, why? It was a bloodless revolution, and without shedding of blood there can be remission, no doing away with former evils and sin. But we have been purchased with the price, and that price was the son of God, who gave himself. Some men do not like this blood religion, but it is the price. Some do not like Calvary, but it is the price; some do not like the cross, but it is the price. There is no Christianity with out Christ, and no Christ without hte cross, therefore glorify God, in your body and in your spirit, which are God's, is the statement of our duty. Therefore, a religion for today and tomorrow, must be a religion with a plus in it. A there. We are leaving out the therefore, separating the fact from the truth, and the truth from the duty. There—what—therefore glorify God, that is the duty which each of you young men and women graduating today must face, and do not think for a moment that God needs you and me. My glory will not be diminished by anything we do or fall to do, but He give us the sacred privilege of being the instruments by which the glory may be known to the world. Therefore glorify God, go out in the world's broadfield of action, with this as your motto, rg membering that we serve God best when we serve man most. To every man there openeth, A Way and Ways, and a Way, And the High Soul climb the High Way, And the low soul grope the low; And in between on the misty flats, The rest drift to and fro. But to every man there openeth, A High Way, and a Low, And every man decideth, The Way his sould shall go! Whether are ye bound today? To the high way—or to the low. We were pleased to see Rev, E. A.

THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1919. "THE ROSE OF SHARON." (By Rev. Mose William, "Black Billy Sunday," Pastor of Mt. Zion Baptist Church.) Text: "I Am the Rose of Sharon." Song 2:1. 1. Sharon was a very faithful place, where David's cattle were fed." 1 Chrtn. 27:29, and was situated south of Mount Carmel, along the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, extending to Cesarea, and Joppa—as it was a region of great fertility, it became proverbial of any place of beauty, and fertility. 2. Sharon is also called a place of Flocks—and Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor, a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me. Isaiah 65:10. 3. The Damascus Rose and the finest kinds, and are at this day greatly admired in the East, for their beauty and fragrance. 4. The figurative representations of the Savior's character and work, are frequent subjects of meditation, to Christians, and convey the truths of the gospel with much sweetness, and power to the heart—Christ is here to be considered as the Rose of Sharon. 5. A Rose is the offspring and fruit of a good, though apparently dry rott. 6. Christ, as it regards His human nature, is the offspring of David, or a branch out of the stem, and root REV. MOSES WILLIAMS of Jesse (Rev. 22:16, Isa. 11:1) in regard to His divine nature. He came forth from His father: He dwell in the bosom of the Father," but was sent into this world to secure man's salvation. 7. A Rose is a very beautiful flower, very pleasant to the eye, of different colors, red and white and in some those two colors are intermixed which intermixture renders them very beautiful. The beauty with which the God of nature has adorned many of the productions of the earth is wunderful. Jesus possesses all divine and moral excellencies. He is altogether lovely." 8. The loveliest production of nature is only a faint emblem of Him, in whom the greatness which excites admiration, is united with the tenderness which wins our love. Jesus alone is the image of the invisible God. He is fairer than the children of men. He is more bright in excellence than angels. Hear hwt the apostle describes Him in Revelations, the first hapter: His head and His hair were white like wool as white snow; His eyes were as a flame of fire; His feet like unto fine brass, as if they buried in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters and He had in His right hand seven stars, and out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword, and His countenance was as the sun shineth in His strength. 9. Chirst is said to be "white and ruddy." 1. White is expressive of His divinity. 2. Red is expressive of His humanity. 3. White denotes His natural purity and innocency. 4. Red denotes His bloody agony and sufferings for our sake. 5. The Prophet Isaiah, looking through the dim spectacle of Nature, and saw the on-coming tramp of Jesus, 714 years previous to His appearane in the world, said: Who is this that cometh from Edom with dye garments from Bozrah? Traveling in the greatness of His strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save. Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that tradeth in the wine-fat. 1. Oh, how interesting is Christ in the atonement which He made—he blessings He purchased, and the victory which He achieved? 2. A Rose is celebrated for its fragrance—perfume. We read of the smell of Lebanon, and in the East such is the profusion, and fragrance of plants in some places that the air scented by them for a great space around. The name of Christ is as precious ointment poured forth. He is the Savior t if life to them that believe. What is so sweet and refreshing to the spiritual sense of the soul as the sacrifice and saving power of Christ? 3. Every virtue of Christ's character and every promise of His word. Every precept of His law, and every rite of His worship. Every act of His meditation, and every blessing of his grace is to the god, like ointment poured forth. 3. His lips are like lilies, dropping sweet-smelling perfume, all His garments smell of myrrh, aloes and casia, and His death was a sacrifice of sweet-smelling Savior unto God. It hath made the lothemes dungeon pleasant, and overcome the nonliness of the grave. When Jach appeared before his father in the goodly ralment of Esau, his father, Isaac, blessed him and said, "The smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed." 4. And when Christians appear be- fore God clad in righteousness and animated by spirit of his Son and for His sake, God excepts them. 5. The Rose possesses medical virtues which are very serviceable in some complaints, being tinserved and otherwise used and applied, they exhilate the spirits and are very cooling and good for the eyes. 6. But no plant can be, likened in virtue to Christ. The Rose of Sharon and the "balm" of Gilead. He affords remedies for all plagues of the heart. Raging corruptitin is subdued by His influence, and the anguish of a guilty conscience is healed. He maketh the man of anger gentle, meek and humble. He maketh the mourner in Zion cheerful and happy. He taemth His worst enemies and makes them greater instruments in His hands (like in the Apostle Paul's case). 7. The Rose of Sharon is like the tree which Moses was commanded to cast into the waters of Marah, which rendered them wholesome and sweet. 8. Jesus, the Rtse of Sharon, makes the severest affliction light, and will bring forth a remedy to heal all diseases of the soul. It will make a drunkard sober. It will make t liar truth. It will make a lazy man smart. It will make a long tongue short, and a crooked way straight. It will make a dishonest man honest. 9. The Rose of Sharon is reckoned by ancient and modern naturalists to be the queen of flowers. So the super-excellence of Christ is represented by the Apostle Paul to infinitely excell men and angels. One great write in speaking of his excellency said: Jesus, Thy name, high over all i earth, hell or sky; angels and men before he fall and devils flee and fly. 12. The Roses of Sharon that grew in the fields or plains were not planted by man, and therefre no certain individual has a claim on them, but everybody has an equal right to them. Had they been planted by some certain man, he would have had a fence around them and no one would be admitted to pluck them, without His permission, but they were planted by God, which gave each man an equal right to them. 13. So Jesus Christ was not planted in the field of this world by man, but He was planted by the hands of His father, which gave every man that cometh into this world, an equal right to Jesus. The Prophet Isaiah said: Ho, every one that thirstest come ye to the waters and he that hath no money come ye, buy and eat; ye come, buy wine and milk, without money and without price (Isaiah 55:1). 14. Sharon was a place of pastures, place of feeding, a place where the flocks used to rest; it was a very fruitful valley. 15.

A preached Christ gives rest of mind to the penitent sinner, and to the toddling Christian. Christ said: Come unto Me, all ye that labor, and are heavy laden, and will give you rest. 17.

At the last election the tax-payers voted a bonded debt upon our City for $2,000,000 for which to motorize our Fire Department with the latest and best equipment—the proposition carried by a vote of 5 to 1, because the tax payers readily saw the need of adequate fire protection. The equipment is here, being tested and installed. Rumor has it that No. 11 Hose Company located at 1812 Vine Street is being discriminated against, but we are waiting with intense interest for the installation of the promised car. The old one now in use is out of date absolutely an obsolete piece of junk, more suitable for sand or coal hauling than for fire service. When it was given to them it had seen several years of hard service—all other companies at that time were given new cars. Now, if above stated rumor be true and knowing the Company was openly discriminated against at the last distribution, may we ask why? All during the Campaign and on the day of the election the boys and their frriends were actively engaged in urging every one not to forget to vote for the bonds because the carrying of them meant better fire protection and a new car for them. Hose Company No. 11 has always borne an excellent record for bravery and as efficient fire fighters. Now, in the name of justice it is the duty of every loyal citizen to see to it that their record is maintained by installing one of the new cars. The best citizens of our city are on delegations that will wait upon Chief Henderson and have him to urge that a cheap piece of politics will not be played this time. ```markdown ``` AN OMISSION WANTED TO FIND.

Watkins, Kansas City's foremost undertaker for the use of Mr. David Allen's elegant limousine throughout the entire day and evening, Mr. Watkins bearing the entire expense.

Chapman, lawyers Hueston and Calloway, Dr. J. E. Perry, Dr. J. E. Dibble and the Editor of the Sun. The refusal of the large stores down town to accord our ladies the courtesies of their rest rooms has brought a new problem to the Colored people of this city that must be solved. Miss Vernetta Allen of 1518 E. 19th street who conducts a beauty parlor at that number has decided to install a rest room comfortably equipped for our women and they are invited to make it their headquarters and make the freest use of its facilities. Telephones will be installed and books, periodicals etc. can be found there for one's enjoyment. Ladles, get behind Miss Allen and make this innovation a success. I take this method of making a public acknowledgement of the assistance given me by Dr. William J. Thompkins and his colored and white associates during my eight months' inability at the Old City Hospital. It was privileged to use my experience as a tailor, which during my last month's stay, enabled me to gain my financial and physical strength together.

It is believed that it will reach thousands of the unreached in the near future. No matter where you live, no matter how obscure your life, no matter how few, your friends or how big your circle of acquaintances there radiate from the Sun an influence which instructs, acquaints and elevates. This is the prime essential for its selling force. But its real selling force is the man or woman who has bought it and is satisfied. And to satisfy the man or woman who takes the time and luxury to learn of its general and local news, and its advertisements—is the Sun's aim and action. History teaches that aim and action are full of life, ambition, strength and triumph. Relying upon your support the Sun is endeavoring to have the two together, and to keep them together in order to see what wonders they will accomplish. A NEW BOOK The most interesting as well as highly appreciated volume that has reached our office this year is the new book entitled "The American Negro in the Great World War," from the briliant and versatile pen of that veteran editor and publicist, W. Allison Sweeney, of Chicago. Not a Negro in America who has read the blazing and sentillating editors of the author in various issues of the Chicago Defender but love and admire him for his manly courage, his erudition and his keen, cutting rapier which he wields with the dexterity of a knight errant. The Sun has no hesitancy in declaring W. Allison Sweeney one of the greatest writers of the age, regardless of race and in this new book which brims with stirring recitals of the Negro's career from Bunker Hill to Chateau Thierry, his best work has been done. That members of the race who neglects to place a volume of this well written and beautifully illustrated book in his library does both himself and the race an injustice, and if you want to read the best book of the year, just write W. Allison Sweeney, Contributing Editor, Chicago Defender, 3325 South Park Avenue, Chicago, Ill. THE SECRET Every business firm worthy of our consideration and patronage has a secret of its success. The secret of the Reid, Lang and Company's success resides in its wisdom to provide for the wants of the people and its tuex in dealing with them. This product of the Reid, Lang and Co., of Chicago, Ill., has been located at 1228 Main, its present quarters since last September. The commendable feature of this firm is that all its employees are prohibited to insinuate that the Negro is to be given the last attention at the counter. Several of our young men and women fill positions there without prejudicial annoyances. Therefore, it is inferred that the ambition of this firm is to give satisfaction to all. Through interest and for the benefit of a large number of our people who trade there we investigated and found that when we buy men's tailored suits, ladies and children's wearing apparel, hardware, furniture, musical instruments and groceries we save from 15 to 20 per cent. And the Profit-Sharing Plan is commendable. Instead of givin gaway premiums they present their customers with a part of the profit their trading creates. Each patron receives free the profit-sharing certificate which bears annual dividends of 4 to 12 per payable in cash twice each year as the patron trades. If you are in doubt or desire to know the actual offers-take advantage of the welcome extended to all and inquire. We are talking to you along this line because we like to talk to our readers on any matter pertaining to a reduction of the high cost of living. "A penny saved is a penny earned." The President of the United States went to the Peace Conference to get nothing for his country. He got it. The President of the United States went to the Peace Conference to get nothing for himself but the presidency of the world. He got it and is to be inaugurated in October. Great Britain and Japan got the hundred German is lands in the Pacific. Great Britain and France divide the German colonies in Africa. Japan gets 40,000,000 people and the land they live upon in Shantung. France gets Alsace-Lorraine and recognition of her claims on the southern lateral of the Mediterranean. Italy gets the Southern Tyrol and provinces opposite her on the Adriatic Eagles great Britain gets agreement under which she is to maintain control of the Seven Seas, most of her formidable competitors' navy and merchant marine being turned over to her. She gets absolute title to Egypt and a covenant of the military forces of the world help her suppress efforts to secure independence of any of her possessions on which are a third of the population of this planet. Belgium, France, England and Italy get todivide an indemnity forty times as large as the biggest of which history speaks. Oh, yes! We get a debt of thirty billions, thousands of saddened homes, and the ill-will of many nations whose good will we should have had—Cleveland Gazette.

Walker Manufacturing Company and to that end early in 1911 incorporated her business under the name of the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company, with the main office in Indianapolis, Indiana. As such the Company has been doing business ever since. Two years ago, realizing that her health was rapidly failing, Madam Walker gathered about her experienced and competent employees, reorganized her Board of Directors and turned over the management of her vast business to the same. Under this new management which is the present management, the Company has measured up to its reputation and kept its products up to the high standard that made the Madam C. J. Walker hair preparations famous the world over. Because of her wise forethought, her unfortunate passing away at this time will in no wise affect the management of the Mme. C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. Madam Walker's highly trained and amiable daughter, Mrs. Lelia W. Robinson, will succeed her as President of the Company. There will be no other changes. NEW NEGRO TOWN. Portsmouth, Va., May 25—Ucle Sam, through the United State Housing Corporation of the Department of Labor, yesterday opened the first town constructed by the government exclusively for Negroes. This model city, built and operated by the United States Housing Corporation, is located at Truxton, Va., near the great naval station at Portsmouth and is comprised of some 224 buildings. The town covers approximately ninety acres. Officials of the United States Housing Corporation, officers from the Portsmouth navy yard and officials of the State of Virginia, attended the opening ceremonies and the principal address was delivered by L. K. Sherman, president of the Housing Corporation, who represented Secretary of Labor William B. Wilson. Truxton is in every sense a modern town. It will accommodate 250 families either in single or semi-detached homes. Rents range from $10 to $19 per month. There are six store buildings within the limits of the town which it is proposed to operate under a stock company formed by the tenants. A doctor and a dentist will be invited to locate in the community. Although the formal opening of the Housing Corporation's town did not take place until yesterday, ninety-six families have already located in the houses now finished and applications for homes already received insure the occupancy of the buildings as rapidly as they are completed. The town will be completely finished and occupied within the next two months. Members of the Negro race have taken a great interest in this novel and model town, a very active Negro advisory committee under T. C. Irvin, supervisor of Negro Economics for Virginia, having carried on an active campaign among prospective tenants with a view to establishing Truxton as a model workers' community. A high standard has been set for the community and plans are under way for the establishment of a library and other educational features. Bell, East 4647.

At the close of this the fourth year o fits existence the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History will convene in biennial session in Washington, D. C., on the 17th and 18th of June at the 12th street Branch Y. M. C. A. The reports for the year will be heard, new officers will be elected, and the plans for the coming year will be formulated. The chief interest of the meeting, however, will center around the informing addresses on the Negro in the World War by Julius Rosenwald, George Foster Peabody, Emmett J. Scott, George E. Haynes, W. T. B. Williams, Ralph W. Tyler, James H. Dillard and Thomas J. Jones. Every phase of the war history which the Negro helped to make will be treated. Returned soldiers will be invited to take part in the discussions. The Association will work out also the plans by which it will collect data to write a scientific History of the Negro in the World War just as soon as the treaty of peace is signed and documents now inaccessible because of the proximity to the conflict become available. The cooperation of all seekers after the truth is earnestly solicited. During the past two years the Association has been able to move stadily forward in spite of the difficulties incident to the war. The subscription to the Journal for Negro History have gradually increased and a number of philanthropists have liberally contributed to the fund now being used to extend the work into all parts of the country. This work is being done by a Field Agent who organizes clubs for the study of Negro life and history and, through local agents, sells the publications of the Association and solicits subscriptions to the Journal of Negro History. In addition to publishing for four years the Journal of Negro History, a repository of truth now available in bound form, the Association has brought out also, Slavery in Kentucky, an interesting portraiture of the institution in that State; The Royal Adventurers Trading into Africa, one of the best studies of the early slave trade; and A Century of Negro Migration, the only scientific treatment of this movement hitherto published. The circulation of these publications has been extensive. Theeyar read in North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Africa; they reach more than three hundred college and public libraries; they are found in all Negro homes where learning is an objective; they are used by most social workers to get light on the solution of the problems of humanity; they are referred to by students and professors conducting classes carrying on research; and they reach the members of the cabinet and the President of the United States. the officers of the Association are R. E. Park, President; J. E. Moorland, Secretary-Treasurer and C. G. Woodson, Director of Research and Editor; who, with Julius Rosenwald, George Foster Peabody, James H. Dillard, John R. Hawkins, R. E. Jones, A. L. Jackson, Thomas Jesse Sires, J. Edmund Walker, Irving Metcalf, L. Holingsworth Wood, Moorfield Storey and J. G. Phelps Stokes, constitute the Executive Council.

Feis, resident of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, are to deliver addresses of welcome at the tenth anniversary conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored people which opens in Cleveland on June 21 and will last through June 28. At this conference it is expected that announcement of a membership exceeding 100,000 throughout the United States will be made. "The Battlefield of America" is announced as the subject of the opening mass meeting on Sunday June 22, which is to be addressed by Hon. Emett J. Scott, special assistant to the Secretary of War. Moorfield Storey, of Boston, is to preside at this meeting and among the speakers are James Weldon Johnson and Dean William Pickens of Morgan College, Baltimore, featherweight. d.

Atkinson writes that he desires his friends to look for him soon, the sooner the better for him. The following boys of the 806th Pioneer infantry write that the country is fine over there but they are all homescik and want to come back home and wish to be remembered by all firebirds. Sergt. Shirley Mack, Edw Pacey, Wesley Monroe, Geo. Lee, Ben E. Harris, Mitchell Hall. Clarence E. Williams writes that the 806th Pioneer Infantry has been decorated for having participated in the Meuse Argonne offensive. Many relatives and friends of the soldiers of this organization will be glad to know that they expect to sail shortly and urgently request that a stop over be held in Kansas City to allow the populace an opportunity of hearing a real Jazz Band with Band leader Ashford Harde, well known musician of the west as leader and director. It may be well known that of the musicians of this band, Kansas City affords the majority. The 805th is also getting a reputation for having a good stable. Several of the fighters are reporting daily to the Atletic Officer, and are knocking the spots off all their opponents. Sunday night at the Navy Hut, Private Lawrence Miller, featrehweight from Company E, knocked out LeBoxa, a French fighter, in two rounds. It is probable that Miller is the best colored highweight in the A. E. F. Here are some of his recent stunts, in cluding his battles at Neumchateau: a. Won from Flamin, reputed the best French featherweight. (Flamin had previously defeated Steve Feveris a notable French fighter. b. Draw with Dalney, 501st Engin b. Draw with Dainey, 501st Engineers. c. Won from Julliard, French Located on The Paseo and Se Pioneer Infantry. e.o Draw with Mass, Intermediate Section. f. Won from Williams, 310th Labor Bn. (K.

Won from Smith, 359th Labor Battalion. k. Won from LeBox, French Light weight, two rounds. The following is a quotation from a Neuchâtel paper on Miller's recent fight with Smith: "The whole bout was a lightning stroke between Miller 805th Pioneer Infantry, and Smith 359th Labor taBatilion, both colored. It was without doubt the fastest bout ever scheduled at the Park "Y." Both boys used good headwork and foot work and threw their mitts in excelent form. Each stood a lot of punishment, but both were in good shape and did not seem to mind it." LEAGUE OF NATIONS. With Taft and Wilson or Senator Reed? Ex-President Taft is a genial sort of a soul. He is an optimist and means good to everyone. He is of a judicial temperament and weighs both sides of a question carefully. His patriotism is unquestioned. His love for his country is such that he could not advise her to a course that would bring her ill. It will be recalled that when President he gave the Negro the most lucrative as well as the highest ranking position ever held by a egro in this country. ever-the-less he declared that he would appoint no Negro to a position to which white citizens objected. That declaration, of course eliminated egroes from positions in the South where they are in the majority. If that policy were persis- ly followed, egroes would hold no federal positions any where in he United States. Wor no where in the United States are white people clamoring for egroes to occupy lucrative Government positions. Ex-President Taft favors the amended League of Nations cover name. The present (absent) incumbent of the National Executive chair is sponsor for the amendments and is urging the acceptance of the amended constitution by his countryman despite its recognition of Liberia and Haiti as equals of the United States. However, in a crisis since Canada and South Africa will vote with Great Britian, it is natural to suppose that Liberia and Haiti will cast their votes with the United States. Outside of the army he has appointed no Negroes to positions save a municipal judge in the District of Columbia and the minister Alexander, Chicago, James H. Smith. THE KANSAS CITY SUN, SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1919. to Liberia and informed his egro fellow countrymen that they could use their own discretion in supporting himitor a second term. Now in the last four years, if notbefore, the Negro has unmistakably demonstrated that when it comes to national danger or weal he unheastingly subordinates his own interest towhat seems the public good. Even the amended constitution of the League of ations as the egro carefully studies it, does not seem satisfactory, but since it has awakened such violent and unrelenting opposition and fierce attacks of the senior senator from Missouri, it must be that somehidden good in this convenant has escaped the vigilant scrutiny of the Negro and that it possesses, because ofthis unexpected opposition from a source not too friendly to the Negro, some merit that must enlist the favor and support of the Negro. Wilberforce, Ohio, June 12.—With the First Educational District of the A. M. E. Church over which Bishop Joshua H. Jones presides, subscribing $25,000 for Wilberforce, with the relection of Dr. W. S. Scarborough a president, the able address of Dr. Emnett J. Scott, and the graduation of 100 students, the 26th annual commencement of Wilberforce passes into history as one of the greatest since its foundation by Bishop Payne. The exercises were attended by a thousand and people from all over the State of Ohio and throughout the country. On commencement day there was a change from the riding in buggies and wagons; they came in automobiles and taxi's to hear Mr. Scott who acted as Special Assistant to the Secretary of War Baker, Dr. Scarborough introduced him as one of America's most distinguished educators and one who had been a true and tried friend to Wilberforce, especially during the late war when Wilberforce was sending its young blooded "Over the Seas." Dr. Scott who received a degree from THE NEW BATH HO Seventeenth Street, given by the Commo Geo. M. Allen, James C. Hall, Samuel R. Gwynne, Liburn G. Wheeler, Lewis Johnson, Lloyd G.

Chicago will have eight rifle companies, two headquarters companies, one machine gun company and one supply company while Quincy, Danville and Springfield will have single rifle companies. Location for other companies has not been decided upon yet. Wilberforce two years ago wore his cap and gown. His subject was "Democracy and Education." After paying a high tribute to such leaders of the great A. M. E. Church as Payne, Allen, Jones, Leutenant Col. Young and Dr. W. S. Scarborough he made an appeal for more support to Wilberforce and schools of this class. He emphasized that the end of all education was service to mankind. He was liberally applauded when he denounced lynching, inequality, disfranchisement and other indignities heaped upon the race. Twelve Bishops were on the platform at the time of the address commented the former secretary of Tuskegee for such an timely address. Dr. Scarborough announced that Dr. Scott had recently been elected Secretary-Treasurer of Howard University School Has Exhibit The school has exhibits and demonstrations by the students. In the gymnasium there were exhibits in architectural design, mechanical drawing, carpentry construction, blacksmithing, wagon building, auto-mechanic, machine shop work, plumbing steam fitting, printing and scientific agriculture. There was dress making, millinery and cooking for girls displayed. The work this year, according to Dr. Scarborough was thorough in every department and satisfactory to the Trustee Board, "Daniel" a canta under the direction of Miss Ida F. Horton, assisted by Miss Hallie Q. Brown, the world's great locutionists, was the finest of its kind ever heard at the school. Honorary Degrees were awarded to S. A. T. Watkins, LL.

Wilson, Jefferson City, Mo. Matilda dons her latest trock and sprinkles powder on her nose, She twines a rogish curl in place and hitches on her fancy clothes; Then off with sutor to the dance to two-step in the hours so late; While mother washes up the things and father—father pays the freight. The driver brings a load of coal, a man is hired to put it in; While William in an ascot tie is off to see which team will win, He shouts with glee when muscles strain and gives a rousing cheer elate. While mother chops the kindling wood and father—father pays the freight. Oh Youth. You'll wander into age—the way is all too bright—too brief. You'll learn the worth of every laugh, you'll know the cause of every grief. One day will come when you, the sage, shall witness all this youthful prate; And mother will do all the chores while you as father pay the freight.

Banks, whose cut appears above, for the people of this city know of his record as a citizen and soldier. As humanity is inclined to forget it is fitting that we remind you that Lieut. Banks is back again, and that he is better prepared at 1620 East 18th St., his new electric repair shop, to give you the benefit of his experience. The trade Lieut. Banks mastered so well before entering the army service enables him to appropriate time to his own use and to give the best service to his fellows. That people appreciate those who give service is shown by the number of old and new patrons he is serving. Mr. Banks has just received his reappointment as second lieutenant in the officers reserve U. S. Army. Hats off to him, and may his success in every endeavor continue to increase. POSEDALE KANSAS Mr. and Mrs. Allen had as their guests for dinner Sunday: Mr. and Mrs. Thimas E. Allen of Kansas City, Mo. The commencement exercises of Attucks School were held at the Rosedale High School Friday evening. The graduates delivered some of the best and most forceful orations we have ever heard from pupils graduating from a ward school. Prof. J. P. King of Tsum High School, Kansas City, Kan. made a stirring address to the graduates. His subject was "The Seven Points of an Educated American," and he certainly brought out those seven in such an interesting manner that we are quite sure his hearers were very much impressed. Prof. Vaughn, superintendent of the schools, gave the certificates and said that he was proud of those splendid young people. Mr Frank Rushton, a member of the school board, made a nice talk and told that among the many things the board intends doing for Attucks School for next year was the installing it a steam heating plant, beautifying the playground. They are also contemplating adding the work of the first year high school course. All this was received with much interest by the audience. In order to do this there will have to be some bonds voted and everyone will have a chance to go to the polls and vote July 1. We hope that every Colored person in our city will not fail to vote that day, as we are living for the children and must work earnestly for their advancement. ... The graduates were: Misses Estella May, Mary Reed and Helen Williams; Messrs. William Frederick Ingram, Odie Suttles and Walter Williams, Rev. D. A. Holmes occupied the pulpit at the evening services of the Pleasant Valley Baptist Church Sunday evening. His text was taken from Genesis, 3d chapter and 15th verse, subject, "The Fall of Man," which was one of the best sermons we have ever heard in our church. It was beautifully arranged, full of good thought, and delivered with the spirit. We appreciate having such an able minister visit us as Rev. Holmes and our doors will always be open at any time he decides to come again. He is the brilliant pastor of Metropolitan Baptist Temple, Kansas City, Kansas, and a man who is always doing something for the Race. Rev. Holmes is a scholar and a theologian. He and our pastor, Rev. J. R. Williams, exchanged pulpits. ... The program rendered by the young people who have graduated in past years from Attucks School Friday evening was very good. The affair was given under the auspices of the Parent Teachers' Association, and we were very grateful to those splendid young people who came back and assisted us. Quite a neat sum was realized from the refreshments. Mrs. Hazel Thomas of Chicago, Ill., is the guest of Mrs. Hayes Long. Mrs. Thomas was formerly Miss Hazel Miller of Kansas City, Mo. ... Miss Thelma Kennedy has gone to Emporia, Kans., to attend summer scholt at the Kansas State Normal.
