The Negro, His Econo
and His Right to
An Interview with Dr. Emmett
urer of Howard University,
Special Assistant to the
(Associated Negro Press.)
The interview which follows recently appeared in the New York World. It is an upstanding contention for the fundamental rights of the Negro people. Doctor Scott makes it clear just what the Negro is expecting to come out of present efforts to establish triumphant democracy throughout the world. His appeal for fair play is of a character entitling his views to widespread publicity and approval.
"An apology from the Colored people would not solve nor simplify this problem, even if I were authorized to make it. And I am not so authorized. We make no claim to perfection; we confess our share of responsibility. But the Negro masses have made it plain to their leaders that no discussion of the present-day race conflicts in America will have their approval which assumes that the blacks are more to blame than the whites."
Not the voice of Booker T. Washington, but much of his spirit is heard in that utterance. Emmett J. Scott was private secretary to the great chief at Tuskegee Institute for eighteen years, and spent a total of twenty-two years at the center of Afro-American culture. During the war with Germany, Dr. Scott served as a special assistant to the Secretary of War, a post which he resigned June 30, of this year, to become Secretary Treasurer of Howard University. Germany was beaten, peace had returned.
Two weeks later battles were raging in the streets of Washington. No one denies that white mobs began the new Civil War. And no one denies that the blacks retaliated. The shadows of the White House and of Howard University, miles apart, became centers of conflict. The Police Department abdicated. Grinning citizens went out to see the fun and were brought home with the more innocent dead. Federal troops finally recaptured Washington from the enemy, who retreated westward over the Alleghenies and fell upon Chicago. It was then that I found Dr. Scott in nis office at the university and asked him if he thought the white and Colored people of the United States were civilized enough to live together without making their common flag the symbol of chronic massacres.
"If our ideals and professions are not moonshine and hypocrisy, then a peaceable solution will certainly be found," Dr. Scott began. "I confess there is much in the record to discourage optimism. During 1917 and 1918 the Colored people of America gave a demonstration of patriotic loyalty, efficiency and courage unexcelled by any other element of our population. Democracy was at stake, yet during those critical years 100 Colored men and women lynched in the United States, more than ever before during a like period. That was discouraging."
Then Dr. Scott smiled at a happy recollection.
"In the great victory parade in Atlanta an old Colored man was perhaps the proudest marcher in line. He bore aloft a banner attesting that eleven of his sons were serving in the Army of the United States. It must have been a hard blow for him to learn that he had been topped by another old man of his race from Louisiana, who gave thirteen boys to the fighting forces. But this must have hurt him still more."
Dr. Scott held up a Georgia newspaper. It contained the story of two young Colored women who, being pursued by two delirious white youths, sought shelter behind the locked doors of a neighbor's home. The white men beat on the door to break it down. An old Negro came out armed with a gun, and ordered the assailants away. The white men attacked him. The old defender of womanhood shot one of the men. A white mob sent the Colored man to a horrible death by lynching.
"But even through this dark scene

timental motive for doing so. The new motive is economic, and it applies to every part of the country where workmen are scarce and the worth of the black man as a laborer has been demonstrated. Every American community must soon realize that it cannot permit lawless groups to prosecute the Negro if it wishes to enjoy the benefit of his economic contribution.
"On the 1918 basis of 1,000,000 immigrants a year, the United States is now suffering from a deficit of at least 4,000,000 workers. And there will be a continuing deficit, for while there is no immigration many foreign residents of the country are returning to Europe. The Colored man has profited from this, and of course he knows it. He would indeed be the mental inferior of other Americans if he did not. I do not believe he plans to take an unjust or improper advantage of the circumstance, but it certainly does not weaken his claim to ordinary justice, which is all he asks of his fellowmen.
"There is an interesting economic background to the Washington riots," Dr. Scott continued. "During 1917 and 1918 the Government needed many thousands of additional employees, as you know. Yet in many departments prejudice against the Colored people remained strong and effective enough to bar them from the public service. This produced a curious and unexpected (Continued on Page 8.)

in American life, some pure hopeful light shines." Dr. Scotte resumed, "That terrible episode shocked the South. Listen to the Atlanta Constitution, which, in concluding a long editorial denunciation of the offenders, says: "This monstrous affair does not concern Telfair County nor Georgia alone but the American Republic as a whole; and we might as well look the future squarely in the face and be prepared to accept Federal jurisdiction in crimes of this kind if our own State has not the courage to meet the situation and apply the remedy."
That editorial was printed on July 25, when Chicago was entering her separate argument for Federal regulation of race wars.
"I was born in the South. I have labored there. The masses of the Negro people live there. For many years to come this will be true, and that section should take the lead in establishing definitely friendly relations between the races. The time has come, when there is more than a sen-
KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1919.
CONDITIONS ARE IDEAL AT OLD CITY HOSPITAL.
"I never have any trouble with my internes or employees," Dr. William Tompkins, superintendent of the old city hospital, said yesterday; "I have nine internes, forty nurses and about 140 patients. As far as I know, everything at this hospital is in perfect harmony."
A visit to the old City hospital tended to prove Dr. Thompkins's statement. Despite the fact that the building is more than forty years old, and that the floors are wood and the walls painted plaster, not a speck of dust or dirt was visible anywhere.
The well-scrubbed wooden floors and steps would be a delight to a critical housewife. They are scrubbed daily, Dr. Thompkins said. No dirt is under the radiators in any part of the building. The basement is as clean as the operating room which is beyond reproach. It is a decided contrast to the new and modern General hospital further up the hill.
Everything at the old City hospital is run under a well-planned system. There is no bickering and discontent among the employees. Both the patients and the staff express the highest degree of satisfaction over the management and conditions. The police say they are given twice the service and attention when bringing patients to the old City hospital that they receive at the General hospital. Not only is the Negro hospital the more cleanly of the two, but there is an air of work being well done about the place. Every one is busy and apparently satisfied. There are nearly
M. H.
as many patients at that hospital as at the General hospital.
"We have a hard time getting equipment." Dr. Thompkins said, "but we do the best we can without. We are anxious that the people of Kansas City should pay our hospital a visit and see what we are doing."—From Friday's Journal.

Lengthening shadows cast across my way;
Slow sinking sun mute tells the close of day
Effulgent bars mark Phaeton's reckless ride;
Now comes the quiet hour. Even'tide...
Slow fading light: deep purple horizon;
Dark hills and vales Echo's soft voice respond.
The lingering bird it drowsy mate doth chide
All speak in kindred tongue. "Tis Tide'tide."
Vesper bells! then faltering footsteps pass
Time crowned them gray who once were lad a
What once were they, follow in youthful stride
Wending their way to prayer-at Even'tide.

Oh Even'tide! Oh peace beguiling sprite
Born of the fleeting day-pursuant night.
Unerring Time you wisely interposed
To still day's din; to bid Earth's sweet repose.

In the more than half a century I have lived here, no public gathering which I attended was more replete with gripping, spell-bound interest than the community meeting at Lincoln High School on Sunday, last. The vast audience was overcome with varied emotions, now laughter, now tears, now an uncontrollable outburst of pent-up enthusiasm. Kansas City's richest citizen was present to plead for contributions to a memorial to the brave boys who went over seas and lie buried beneath the willows of Chateau Thierry and the Argonne; but Mr. R A. Long spoke as a commoner. There was no patronizing, no condescending, no sentimentalism. He spoke as an humble patriot to an assembly of patriots as man to man, neighbor to neighbor, friend to friend and hero worshippers. He felt at home and made everybody else who heard him feel at home, and ready to follow his lead. It was a telling speech. No less so was the benediction pronounced by him at the suggestion of his gifted daughter, Mrs. Loula Long Combs. It reminded me of the soulful prayers at the close of his sermons of the great Henry Ward Beecher, each one a sermon in itself. And that masterly address of Nelson C. Crews! He rose to the occasion with the eloquence of a Fredrick Douglass and the burning fire of a Patrick Henry as he told of the

martial achievement of the black boys in the late war and of the determination of Kansas City Negroes to respond to the call for contributions to the two million dollar drive for a memorial to the four hundred of its saluted soldier dead. He received a continued ovation.
And when this gifted orator, addressing Mr. Long, thundered forth, "We Negroes assure you, sir, that we have no time to waste with the rioter, the striker, the dynamiter, the Bolshevists of the white race, as all such peace disturbers are simply in our way; owing our fealty and allegiance to great souls like yourself; for all we want as a race is justice and a square deal," Mr. Long was impelled to spring to his feet and signal to the vast audience to rise and with a wave of handkerchiefs and a shout that made the welkin ring, it proclaimed its emphatic endorsement.
Kansas City is justly proud of these two men; of its great humanitarian, and of its equally great orator. Both are richly endowed.
If only Mr. Crews could be prevailed upon to ally himself heart and soul with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and give to that organization the benefit of his great talent and untiring energy and courage, what a powerful asset would be added to the local branch of the society in this great center of social and commercial human activities.

Money Lost on Operation of Heating Plant
In its recent opinion fixing lighting and heating rates in Kansas City, the Missouri Public Service Commission found: "That operating revenue, during the calendar years of 1917 and 1918 were less than the producing expenses alone, during those respective periods."
Concerning the Heating Department of the Kansas City Light and Power Company, for those periods, the Commission finds:
1—The heating department failed to make operating expenses by $22,558.84 in 1917; failed during the first eight months of 1918 by $198,186.88; during the last four months of 1918 by $98,507.98, and during the calendar year of 1918 by $296,694.87.
The Commission calls attention to the fact that during none of these periods, was the heating revenue sufficient to even meet the fuel expenses alone, and submits the following figures for 1918:
Revenue..... $291,982.07
Operating expenses including depreciation..... 592,818.81
Deficit below operating expenses..... 300,836.74
Return surplus and contingencies 7% on $1,437,816..... 100,647.12
Increase in revenue necessary to pay operating expenses including depreciation and 7% on $1,437,816..... 401,483.86
Revenue necessary to pay operating expenses including depreciation and 7% on $1,437,816..... 693,465.93
This shows the losses included in the heating plant of the Light Company for 1918, as shown by the Public Service Commission's own figures.

Don't turn to your brother a frown on your face,
But meet his demands with a hearty good grace,
We're oftimes wrong when we thing we are Tight
There's a shadow that marks every atom of Ught,
‘Take failure with calmness—a lesson fs learned:
It's @ lotion to those disappointment has burned,
Remember this adage and hold it a eimeh—
A‘smile is a mile where a scowl is an inch.
Don't move from the path to give ‘way to Despair.
For he is a brother to Worry and Care,
Just laugh him to death by the strengtt of your will,
‘And Kick his black corpse from the top of the bill;
Then turn to meet Sorrow and give her your hand
And show her the fruits of Contentment’s broad land,
Reserve your best chuckles to deal in a glinch
A smile is a mile where a scowl is an inch

‘The storm-tossed disciples on the
sea nt night Is an example of the
strnggling followers of the Lord in the
darkness of the present age, as they
fare tossed by the tempests of the evil
one.
1. The Disciples on the Storm-tonsed
Sea (vv. 22-24),
1. They were sent across the sen by
Christ (¥, 22). Doubtless his reason
for this was to keep them from en-
tanglement In the movements of the
people to make him king, for in John
G:14, 15 it 1s shown that the people
were 80 excited by the feeding of the
five thousand that they were about to
make him king by force. ‘Though they
were somewhat unwilling to go, it was
A merey for him to constrain them.
2 Christ dismissed the multitude
(v.22). ‘This may be taken as typlcat
of his rejection of the nation whose
rulers had alrendy rejected him.
8. Christ praying alone in the moun-
tain (¥, 28). ‘Temptation to earthly
honor and power had come to him,
therefore he went to the Father tn
prayer for relief and strength, ‘The
need of prayer is grentest at such
times, While his prayer was in part
for himself, vet {t was for his disciples.
According to Mark 6:48, he saw from
the mountain top the disciples tolling
on the storm-tossed sea, We are nev-
er out of his sight as we striggle
against the storms of life, and he ever
lives to make Intercession for us.
MN, Jesus Walking on the Sea (vv.
25-27).
1, It was In the fourth watch of the
night (v. 25). He did not come to
them Immediately, but walted till al-
most dawn, It was, however, the
darkest part of the night, and physt-
en: danger was great, but thelr per
plexity of mind was greater. They
knew that the Lord had sent them, but
why should they be tn such straits if

At the End—Youth
If I had created men and women, I should have framed them on a type widely different from that which has actually prevailed—that of the higher mammifers. I should have made men and women, not to resemble the great apes as they do, but on the models of insects which, after a life as caterpillars, change into butterflies, and for the brief final term of their existence have no thought but to love and be lovely. I should have set youth at the end of the human span.—From "The Garden of Epicurus," by Anatole France.
The Old Name for Windso
The Old Name for Windsor.
English royalty has resided at Windsor castle ever since Edward the Confessor built a hunting lodge just at the place where there came a great curve in the gentle river. In his "Child's Guide to London," Mr. A. A. Methley writes that the old name for the place was Windleshora or Windleshores, which may have meant "Windling shore," from the curve of the river at this point. Other say, however, that the word is derived from the Saxon "Windle," a willow tree.

A very complete filling for open cracks in floors may be made by thoroughly soaking old newspapers in a paste made of one pound of flour to three quarts of water, or a less quantity in those proportions. Put one tablespoonful of alum in the mixture and stir thoroughly until brought to a boiling heat. Make the final mixture about as thick as putty and apply with a putty knife. It will harden like papier mache.

living memory of my daughter, Grace Taylor, who passed
a year ago, October 24, 1918.
Your voice is ever silent and your true heart ceased to beat,
is the well known footsteps of my girl I loved to greet;
on the withered oak when all things also decay,
for you will still keep greenand never fade away.
In loving memory of my daughter, Grace Taylor, who passed away one year ago, October 24, 1918.
Though your voice is ever silent and your true heart ceased to beat,
Yet I miss the well known footsteps of my girl I loved to greet;
Like ivy on the withered oak when all things also decay,
My love for you will still keep greenand never fade away.
There is a link death cannot sever,
Love and remembrance lost forever;
The years may wipe out many things,
But this will wipe out never.
The memories of those happy days,
When we were both together,
One lonely year has passed away;
Since my great sorrow fell,
Yet in my heart I mourn the loss
Of one I loved so well.

ready and pay at once.
Roosevelt said—"All men up and no
men down."
Let's all get behind Dr. Unthank
and Prof. Lee and go over the top for
$75,000.00 in the Liberty Memorial
Campaign.
Negroes of Kansas City are expected to raise seventy-five thousand dollars of the two million five hundred thousand to be raised for the Liberty Memorial. Can we do it Forty thousand Negroes answer, "I say we can." Well let's go to it, even as our boys did in glorious France.
The Editor acknowledges the receipt of an invitation to attend the Inaugural Exercises at Howard University, Thursday, November 13, when the new president, Dr. J. Stanley Durkee will be installed, but owing to financial shortage he will hardly be able to attend.
Prof. Charles Bertram Johnson of Kirklesau, Mo., author of "Songs of My People," and other poems and prose was an honored caller at the Sun office last week. Prof. Johnson is a splendid young man of modest but intellectual demeanor and we predict for him a great future. One of his compositions entitled "The Blind Samson of America," will appear in our next week's issue.
The recent session of the Baptist State Convention held in this city was a complete success both in point of attendance and in financial achievement. More than $10,000 was raised for Western College and all of their obligations were promptly met. President Caston and Secretary Goins deserve much credit for the business-like manner in which the work of the Convention was transacted, while the Women's department also made a splendid record. The Second Baptist Church entertained the Convention in royal style and nothing but praise was heard on every hand from the messengers and visitors.
The Press despatches this week say that the Southern Newspaper Publishers' Association would spend a hundred thousand dollars this year advertising the South. "Tin't necessary, brother, your rough necks and lynchers have advertised the South so thoroughly that there isn't any danger or possibility of any immigration setting in toward that unintended section of our fair land. Clean up, put down lynching, break your young white "bloods" away from their Negro Mistresses, cut out your vicious Jim Crow and give every man a square deal and then you'll not be wasting money advertising your "beloved South."
A WONDERFUL SEMINO.
One of the most remarkable, logical and eloquent sermons ever heard in historic Allen Chapel was delivered last Sunday morning by the Rev. J. Lyle Caston, pastor of the Allen Baptist of St. Louis and a younger son of President J. T. Caston of the State Baptist Convention. Allen was unprepared for such a wonderful sermon from such a young man but at its conclusion a wave of religious fervor such as is seldom witnessed in this staid and dignified congregation broke over the assemblage and continued for several minutes. Prof Herrriff facetiously moved that Rev Caston be immediately received in the Methodist Church and Bishop Parks be notified that Allen Chapel's pulpit had been FILLED which provoked much merriment and applause. If young Caston continues developing as evidenced in his splendid sermon last Sunday, it will be but a short time until he is rated as not only the foremost preacher of his own denomination but of the race in America.
FAMOUS PORO PAINTINGS
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 23.—The famous Poro building of which Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Malone are founders has been newly decorated inside by the firm of Marx & Jones. There are now three immense panels in the lobby, called the "Mural Tripartite," a tribute to our Race. They are the Genesis, Exodus and Apotheosis, and each panel has an interesting history. Three heroic figures of the beautiful womanhood of the Race personify Liberty and her hand maidens. One cannot but think as they look at this picture that it expresses fond hope. It really represents the woman whose genius made the Poro college possible, and on Sunday, the veil was lifted. It was a notable occasion in the Mound City, Bishop C. S. Smith, Detroit, Mich., Rev. Reverdy Ransom, New York, Bishop H. B. Parks, Chicago; Dr. A. J. Carey, Chicago, were among the speakers present. An elaborate musical program was rendered Rev. Dr. Peck, pastor of the church which Mr. and Mrs. Malone attend was Master of Ceremonies.

THEY SAY
—That travel broadens some people while we know a whole lot of others that it broke.
—That when Negroes make friends of such men as R. A. Long, they're making friends worth while.
—That if some girls are as "old as they look" they must be nigh on to a hundred. And that's no lie.
—That if some of those dudes don't take off those low cut shoes they'll soon be putting on wooden overcoats. Help!
—That being in love is worse than having the mumps. Well Betty and Sam don't know, they've never had either.
—That there is plenty of room at the top, but as soon as a man gets there, he tries his best to occupy all the space.
—That it has been proven time and again that the greatest blessing Kansas City has received in recent years was the coming to our city of Principle J. R. E. Lee.
—That "Dad" Caston may be some preacher but Betty and Sam say he'll have to go some to beat that sermon delivered by J. Lyle Caston at Allen Chapel last Sunday morning.
—That the man or woman who comes in at the farthest door of a Church from where they intend to sit and walks clear around the auditorium to attract attention, may think they are cute by nine out of ten people think they are only making fools of themselves—Amen.
--That a man consulted a physician the other day in this manner: "Doctah, has you a medicine called de black bottle?" The physician, surprised, but amused, said: "Well, I might fix something up and call it that." to which the stranger remarked: "I want you to fix one up fuh me, case you see it's dis way: I bin doin' without chicken; I bin doin' widout pok chops, I bin doin' widout blisces, and now dat dis country is dry I has to do widout my gin." The physician, like he, felt that a black bottle was necessary, so when he got out his pad and pencil, the prospective patient said: "Doctah. I believe I'll jus leve dat hea'h wid you until I can see if dis country remains dry."

I am now in a position to not only help my old customers, but any industrious Negro man or woman who is trying to pay for a home or who wants to buy one.
If you are having trouble such as wanting your mortgage renewed, want a new loan, or if you are back on payments and taxes, if you want to remodel, if you want to exchange your old house for a new one, if you want to sell your equity, if you want to buy and have not enough money to make your first payment, if you are having trouble with your title, or anything else regarding your home, I am not sure how much I can lose their homes when they came to me with their troubles. Real Estate deals gives me a thorough knowledge along these lines and my advice to you is free for the asking.

BEAUTIFUL PAINTING UNVEILED AT PORO COLLEGE.
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 22.—The new PORO COLLEGE, St. Ferdinand and Pendleton streets, founded by Mrs. Annie M. Malone and dedicated Thanksgiving, 1918, at which 'time editors of nearly every weekly paper in the country and PORO agents throughout the United States attended, was the scene of inspiring ceremonies Sunday, October 19th, when the Mural Tripartite, a handsome painting in the rotunda of the building, was unveiled.
heroic figures of Negro womanhood personify Liberty, Music and Art in which the Race has made its most wonderful progress."
HANDSOME PAINTING UNVEILED.
The audience arose and marched to the Lobby where the Rev. Reverdy D. Ransome, New York City, editor of the A. M. E. Church Review, delivered an able and brilliant address following which the Misses Rowena Slaughter, Mary Hardy, and Artesia Charleston, PORO girls, drew back the curtain and the audience viewed the wonderful painting with awe and jeet for cont behaves in I higher consis

The PORO Building which is a monument to the genius of Mr. and Mrs. Malone, had been newly decorated on the interior by the foremost painters of the Mound City. Special hand paintings were observed in the private apartments of the Malones, public Dining Room, Auditorium, Corridor and Lobby. These artistic decorations make PORO COLLEGE rank amongst the handsomest institutions in America.
GIVES RACE EMPLOYMENT.
While PORO COLLEGE gives employment to over 250 women of the race, both young and old, yet Mrs. Malone has been unselfish with her finances in having this wonderful painting placed on the wall that it might be an inspiration, encouragement and joy to the many employees and the public.
Prior to the unveiling of the painting a program was given in the auditorium at 2:30 p. m. Prof. F. L. Williams, principal of the Summer High School, presented Bishop H. B. Parks, presiding Bishop of the Missouri Conference, who acted as master of Ceremonies. The large audience arose and sang "America," Gerald G. Tyler, Director. A tenor solo was rendered with pleasing effect by Robert Moman. Cary B. Lewis, Chicago, Ill., brought greetings from the PORO Agents of the Windy City. Miss Ruth Minor, one of the PORO girls, sang beautifully, "By the Old Cathedral Door." "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" was sung by the audience.
MAKES PROGRESS IN ART.
The oration of the afternoon was delivered by the Rev. W. H. Peck, pastor of St. James A. M. E. Church. He said in part, "The PORO Building is one great garden of beauty and refinement. No attempt at the spectacular is made, while richness is everywhere apparent. Yet this is more than surpassed by the subdued color effect which testifies of great refinement. The first panel typifies the Race's beginning as is shown by the scant clothing, incomplete physical development, the crude spear, and the selfish burden, and is well called the Genesis. But his interests increase; they become humanitarian, agricultural and mechanical. Hence this is the Exodus. So much has been accomplished through application and sacrifice that a large panel must be used to typify the height to which the race has climbed and the three

WOOD-CLEAVES.
Memphis, Oct. 18.—The elegant home of Bishop N. C. Cleaves, Memphis, was the scene of a beautiful wedding Wednesday evening when Mr. J. B. Woods and Miss Shelly B. Cleaves were happily united together in holy wedlock. The groom is one of the best and most energetic young men in Memphis. He is Grand Master of the Mosaic Templars of Tennessee, and is also connected with one of the local banks. The bride is the intelligent, sweet spirited daughter of Bishop Cleaves, and the first he has given away in marriage. They received numerous valuable presents, and their thousands of friends wish them well.

The Chicago Giants succeeded in winsniing one of the three games of the season by annexing the contest from the All-Stars at Association park, 9 to 6. The combat was an interesting affair and one that had the fans on edge from the first inning.
"Letty" Graham worked for the All-Stars, and he was hit at opportune times, while Donaldson, B. Williams and Davey Brown were nearly invincible in the pinches. The three pitchers were used by "Rube" Foster to make sure of a victory. Donaldson worker si innings for the Giants.
The Chicago lads started off in the lead by scoring five runs in the third frame. A home-run by "Ty" Lyons, with the basse loaded, netted the Negro nine four tallies. The All-Stars had their big inning in the fourth when they put over four. They made two more in the fifth, but from then

DRAW.
Tulsa, Okla., Oct. 22 — The fifteen round bout pulled off here Monday night between Sam Langford and Young Thompson, heavy weight was declared a draw by the referee which was a very unpopular decision as the majority of the great crowd present agreed that the decision should have gone to Langford as he had the best of fourteen rounds. It was a fast and furious battle and demonstrates that the old master Langford has lost none of his "kick."

LINCOLN HIGH SCHOOL SCORES AT BIG FOOT BALL GAME,
Lincoln 7—Topeka 0.
Before a very enthusiastic and interested crowd at Association Park last Friday, Lincoln High's football gladiators met and defeated the much vaunted and powerful Topeka Institute team. The boys from the Capitol city arrived in town with a team of "huskies" which man for man outweighed Lincoln's boys by at least three pounds. But as in other lines of sport, it is not always beef and brawn that win, oftimes speed and skill must be considered.
Lincoln High led by Capt. Chauncey Smith trotted on the field at 3:55 F. M. and were cheered to the echo by the Lincoln rooters, aided by the school band. A few minutes later Capt. Payne and his stalwart boys from upstate trotted out. They too were accorded a rousing reception. After a few preliminary plays, the rival Captains tossed up. Capt. Payne of Topeka won the toss and elected to defend the west goal with the sun at his back. Smith kicked off for Lincoln, Whitney ran the ball back 10 yards before being downed by Taylor. After trying to pierce Lincoln's line, Topeka decided to kick. Hick ran the ball back 15 yards and was downed on his own 35 yard line by Vinos. Lincoln then opened up a series of baffling forward passes with Hicks and Taylor doing their receiving. This netted the old gold and blue about 30 yards. Topeka's famous "Yale Shift" didn't work at all as they were too slow getting started and Page and Singleton would break it up before it got under way. The first quarter ended with Topeka in possession of the ball on her own 40 yard line. The second quarter found Topeka trying to gain around the ends but there was nothing doing. Finally Payne punted. By fiercely hitting the line and trying forward passes, Lincoln rushed the ball to Topeka's 30 yard line only to lose it on downs. At this juncture, Hall signalled for a forward pass, hurried the ball Fitzpatrick and Johnson but so
well covered did Hobbs and Smith have these men that there was no possible way for them to get possession of the ball. Washington who was playing back came tearing through and aided by brilliant interference intercepted the pass and rushed 84 yards for a touchdown, Capt. Smith kicked the goal. At the beginning of the second half, both teams went at each other with renewed vigor. Topeka resorted to straight football, such as line plunges and tackle, bucks. To their sorrow, they found out that Coach Taylor's words to his men at the end of the first half had caused them to charge lower and to tackle more fiercely. Every play aimed at the line was hurled back by Page, Singleton, Robbnet and Perty. The Topeka boys played brilliantly and stubbornly fought every inch of ground but there was no way for them to reach old Lincoln's goal. Things looked dangerous near the close of the game when Burton got loose and started for a touch down. Taylor who had played a remarkably strong defensive game shattered his hopes by tackling him fiercely on Topka's 40 yard line.

On order of Attorney General Richard J. Hopkins, complaints were sworn to charging C. H. Haskell, manager of the Beatrice Creamery Company, with violation of the state's anti-monopoly law. Four counts are cited, charging Haskell with dictating retailers' profits and cutting off his supply when a retailer failed to maintain such prices.
County and city authorities at Hutchinson are searching for the 7-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Free, who left home recently. The parents work in a packing plant, and the child's disappearance was unknown until evening. He was seen at a gypsy tent at the fair grounds that afternoon, and the authorities at Herington, to which place the carnival company went, have been notified to be on the watch for him. Streams near by have been searched.

ed result; it acted rather like a boomerang. Private employers in the District of Columbia lost their white workers to the Government in very large numbers. The high average salary of white men who went to the Government remained at $1200 or $1400 a year. But the skilled Colored mechanic whom prejudice excluded from the public service found himself earning $5 to $8 a day. By a twist of events, he had become the economic superior of many of his white neighbors here in the District.
"Now it can hardly be said that the Negro was to blame for this entirely natural effect of obvious causes. Yet he has been blamed by many envious persons who would have us believe that the Colored worker has got out of his place, and has become a mence because employers pay him more than they used to." Dr. Scott smiled again. "I have some old fellows working around the university grounds who collect $3.50 a day from us. They received about $1.25 under the pre war wage standard. I can't abuse them and get a mob to chase them to make them work for less, but I fear that expedient is sometimes resorted to elsewhere in the economic struggle. It is one kind of human nature to strike at your most exposed competitor, and the Colored man is frequently the easiest target.
"But such tactics, if permitted to continue, simply undermine our democracy and cannot possible bring a solution of the problem. Thoughtful teachers, students and employers are coming to see this quite clearly. Side by side with the disgrace of lynching there is growing up in the South a determination among the better element of both races to top this evil before it engulf the whole nation. So we have here an open letter to white college men of the South signed by members of the faculties of eleven different State universities in the South in which a fine fute is paid to the Negro, and all are reminded that "no people is stirred to higher things when habitually referred to in disparaging or contemptuous terms. Ordinary human beings live up to or down to the role assigned them by their neighbors.
"Beside that fine letter may be placed the rinsing denunciation by Gov. Bickett of North Carolina of the current effort to revive the Ku Klux Klan, in which he assets: "Just now all of us need to be considerate and kind and trustful in our dealings with the Negro; the best and the wisest men in both races are." On the encouraging side also there is the example of such Southern employers as the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company which prizes its colored workers so highly that it is catering on a large scale to the black man's strongest desires by providing fine facilities for the education of his children, and other agencies for his welfare.
"No. I am not despondent over the outlook. The situation is serious but not desperate. All healthy sentiment in favor of fair play is growing up on many sides. Wise and courageous leaders of both races are now contending that the first and biggest task of democracy is to keep her own house in order. It is vain to talk ideals unless we practice justice. And in the final triumph of justice I never lose faith."
Dr. Scott stood silent by the window for a moment, then turned with his face full in the morning light, and summed up his hope and convictions.
"To all your questions' there is a cheerful answer. If there is a crisis in the race problem it is because the ation has ignored, neglected and pushed the problem aside. To solve it we must face it and who shall say we are afraid to face it?"
"Too often the whole question is complicated and well meaning efforts negatived by many persons North and South, who conjure up the spectre of "social equality," a term which, as often used is a misnomer. Every self-respecting Colored man and woman concedes the right of every other individual to decide whom his associates and companions shall be. Nor is the Negro—and I think I am rather well acquainted with the main hopes and aspirations of my race—desirious of imposing himself upon any one, or any purely social group in which he is not welcomed. But that has nothing to do with the civic rights and privileges to which every decent man is entitled. Certainly it has no place in the minds of those nearly 200,000 black soldiers who have returned from France, where in the eyes of native men and women they were not regarded as pariahs but simply as good fighting men who knew how to do the job they were sent to do.
"Nor do our people dream of using force to overcome those who spitefully treat them, save within the bounds of strict and instinctive self-defense. What the Negro wants with all his heart, and what America will proudly concede him, I do believe, can be stated very easily.
"In substitution for lynchings, he wants justice in the courts; he wants the privilege of serving on juries; the right to vote; the right to hold office, like other citizens. He wants better educational facilities; abolition of the "Jim Crow" car and of discrimination and segregation in the overment service; the same military training and chance for promotion in the army that white men enjoy destruction of the peonage system, an equal wage, better housing, better sanitary conditions and reforms in Southern penal institutions.
"That is the Negro problem. Does it imposes too much upon the greatest democracy in the world? I cannot believe that it does."
Stone Don't Grow.
Natural agencies operate to form beds of rock such as limestone, etc., just the same as beds of rock now in existence were formed at earlier periods in the earth's history. But the rocks and boulders scattered about the surface of the earth do not grow, notwithstanding the popular belief to the contrary. Instead, they actually diminish in size, owing to the action of frost, wind and other disintegrating agencies.
WHY BE DISCRIMINATED
AGAINST.
REID-LANG & CO. KNOW NO COL-
OR LINE.
On September 16, Reid-Lang and Co., located at 1228 Main Street celebrated its first anniversary. This store is conducted on the profit-sharing, participating and dividend sharing plan. This Company knows no color line and the purchasing power of your dollar not only secures for you high-class merchandise but every courtesy that goes with it. You can go into this store with the assurance that you can be waited upon and shown every consideration that is shown to every other customer and by the way that is all our people ask. There is no use denying the fact that it is becoming more and more the custom of many of the older stores downtown to turn their Colored customers into a side room or make them wait unnecessarily long before being waited upon; and especially is this true where articles must be tried on.
It does appear that a firm that shows no discrimination ought to be highly patronized by our people as your dollar surely has the purchasing power at this store. We also call your particular attention to the profit-sharing plan of this Company whereby you participate in the earnings of this concern by purchasing one of their merchandise contracts. These contracts are sold in two denominations $60.00 and $120.00 respectively; with each contract sold the firm gives absolutely free the same amount of shares of their profit-sharing fund whereby you can earn from four to twelve per cent dividend annually on all purchases made at this store. These dividends are payable semi-annually and we consider it the finest profit-sharing plan ever put before the American people. The following are some of the well known people who have purchased contracts: Drs. Fletcher, Miller, Brown, Thompson, Hedgepeth, Perry, Thompkins and Theodore Smith; Revs. Davis, Osborne, Johnson; Undertalks H. B. Moore, T. B. Watkins and Nathan Thatcher; Profs. Thompkins and Herrford; Messrs. I. F. Bradbury, C. A. Franklin, W. G. Mosely and L. A. Knox. Among those who have already received dividends are: Drs. T. A. Jones, Thos. A. Fletcher, S. H. Thompson, Mr. Stinson and many others.
All that you have to do to convince yourself of the wonderful bargains of this store is to make a visit as we feel you will be the gainer from then on. Mr. S. Glazer who is local Manager and Attorney is a Russian by birth and free from that prejudice which is characteristic of the average American business man. The firm of Reld-Lang and Co. has stores in New York, Chicago, Gary, Valpariso and Evansville, Ind.
WAR TOOK GOLD FROM PUBLIC
And Since 1915 the Production of the Metal Has Been Decreasing Steadily.
The world situation of gold has been the subject of much discussion and speculation. The war has caused the accumulation of gold in state banks and treasuries, and taken it away from private banks and the public. The holdings of state banks and treasuries have increased since 1913 from about 63 per cent of the total stock to about 85 per cent. This has been compensated for by the issuing of paper money, and in some countries the paper issue has been so far in excess of the gold supply that a serious problem has resulted, remarks Scientific American.
In 1914 the United States reported to have had $1,871,611,723 in gold and $753,563,709 in silver, and in 1919 $8,022,037,699 in gold and $552,685,692 in silver, an increase of 65 per cent in gold.
The production of gold has been steadily decreasing since 1915, when the highest point was reached. In that year the world's production of gold was $48,724,918, of which the United States produced $101,035,700, South Africa about $188,000,000, and Australia about $50,000,000. In 1918 the world production was $377,300,000, of which the United States contributed $88,493,500, South Africa $71,000,000 and Australia $26,700,000. Recently the restriction on gold has been removed by the United States, and a decided movement has taken place. England has not yet raised the embargo on gold, because of the fear of depleting her gold supply, which it is necessary to maintain at all costs. Remedial measures suggested have included raising the bank rate to check exports and increase imports of gold. These measures, it is asserted, would check the production of nonessential commodities and the tendency toward speculation which a low money rate encourages.
Australia has placed the exportation of gold in the hands of a gold producers' association, and they are permitted to sell their gold for three months and thereby may procure a premium over the standard price. This move was apparently a relief measure calculated to offset the increasing price of producing gold.
There is nothing suggestive of a gold embargo in Germany. On the contrary the country has begun to send gold to the United States to pay for foodstuffs and raw material, which latter she is sadly in need of. Germany has cleverly maneuvered her gold resources, which France expected would become part of the indemnity.
