(By the Associated Negro Press.) Philadelphia, Pa.—A public reception in the Academy of Music was tendered last night to Bishops Robert E. Jones and Matthew W. Clair, the first men of the race to be elected to such honors in the Methodist Episcopal Church. It was held under the auspices of the churches of the Delaware Conference in Philadelphia and vicinity. Bishop Joseph F. Berry presided and all the speakers alluded to the event as an outstanding achievement of race recognition. Among those who spoke were Rev. John F. Fletcher, district superintendent of the Philadelphia district, Dr. L. C. Murdock, area secretary, and Rev. C. A. Tindley. The two bishops in whose honor the reception was held were elected at the Des Moines Conference last May. Bishop Jones, who hails from New Orleans, and was formerly editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, said it was the duty of the church to bring about better relations between the races. He did not be lie in the superiority of the white race, he continued, but realized that it was at present the exponent of the moral, spiritual and intellectual ideas of the civilized world. Bishop Clair comes from Washington, D. C., where he is pastor of the Ashbury M. E. church. He leaves in December to become Bishop of Liberia. He told of the duty of the church to Liberia and asked that it extend its missionary operations there. He asked for funds wherewith to buy a steam launch to aid him in his missionary work.

Beck organized an insurance company to be known as Mid-West Life Insurance Company. These men will constitute the board of directors and officers for the first fiscal year. The company will operate under the stringent insurance laws of the state, which will guarantee every policy holder the same protection as any other insurance company incorporated under the stipulated premium plan. The company's present capital and surplus is $15,000, and it is the intention of the directors to increase the capital to $100,000 as soon as possible and branch out into other states. Every Negro in Kansas City, as well as the state of Missouri, who is of insurable age and can qualify physically ought to take a policy with this company. Don't wait for a agent to call on you, but write or phone the office and one of the company's representatives will gladly call on you and explain the different features of their policies. The company is now writing ordinary life, twenty payment life and twenty year endowment policies. Life insurance is not only one of the best systematic plans of saving, but it is the surest way to build up an estate that will take care of you in old age and will take care of your family after death. We are appealing to the THINKING Colored men and women, to take a policy with the Mid-West Life Insurance Company, and become one of its charter members. The office is at 1518 E. 2750.

She laid down her hammer with a sight and looked about her. Above her on a trestle stood a long row of tiny cradles, each one perfect, waiting now for their conts of blue paint. Across the high wooden bench Laeta caught the eyes of a stranger looking at her wristfully. "A man in a toy shop," Laeta told herself disgustedly; "brave work for a man." She brushed back a thick lock of red hair that would persist in falling across her white forehead, and slipped off the black smock that covered her little gingham dress. "A white lily," the man thought as he faced her. But Laeta did not return the frank question in his eyes. Instead she went forth into the early dusk with her wide gray eyes unseeing on the quaint streets, streets that ambled uphill and curved leisurely down to the blue water. At her own gate the hollyhocks nodded a rosy greeting, and Laeta stooped to gather the fragrance of the bed of old-fashioned pinks. She turned when she heard an uneven step on the wooden pavement of the village street. It was the stranger, the man who had just come to work in the toy shop. She saw then that he was name, "Laeta" a voice sounded behind the hollyhocks, "What's keeping you, child? Teen's ready." Over the tea table Laeta told them of the day, how her design had been praised, the one of the farmyard with all the painted wooden animals; how the new air brush was working—but Laeta did not notation the stranger. When tea was over and Laeta had polished the last fluted glass and laid the shining knives and spoons in the white closet in prim rows she touched her mother's white hair with a butterfly kiss and closed the door softly behind her. "She's not happy," her mother thought, but she said nothing to her husband, who, with glasses high on his head, was reading the evening paper. Once outside the garden Laeta hurried down to the water front. She walked on and on until she had passed the last gray fisherman's but and climbed far out on the colored, jagged rocks that lined the shore. Here she sat down with her face toward the far horizon, where the water met the blurred line of sky. A white sail shimmered for a moment in her vision before it dipped beyond her sight. "I want to go, too," Laeta said softly. "I want to live to be free! I am going to be like old Miss Henry and little Miss Lella, living alone in a white house in a twisty little street forever?" Then she heard voices beyond her and involuntarily she listened. "Isn't it the most picturesque place? The natives are so quiet. Why, they've lived always in these funny little houses—" Their voices trailed off. Laeta turned to see the "summer people," two girls in sheerest white balancing precariously on high white heels over the shelving rocks. She looked down at her worn, shabby shoes and faded gingham dress and felt a momentary sense of loss. But there was no mark of her battle, no sign of the longing in her face when she returned an hour later. The next day found her at work as usunl in the toy shop, painting three white daisies and one pink hollyhock on the headpiece of the wooden doll's cradle. On a very high stool with a black smock covering the slim whiteness of her, and a lock of red hair that would fall across her eyes, she did not know what a picture she made and how the stranger looked at her more often than at the tiny sailboat he was rigging. But Laeta never even thought of him until closing time, and then his crutch startled her as it fell. She picked it up and handed it to him, and somehow she found herself replying gravely to his questions. He was not like the other men, she decided, more like a woman—simple and kind. Other men frightened her, frightened her so much she could never answer them—but this man—why—she could only pity him. She said good night across the hollyhocks and watched him stumble off. Somehow, his crutch did not seem to suit him. Yet when Laeta asker herself the inevitable question, "Could I like him?" she knew the answer was "no." for she loved bravery and strength and a man who dared everything—not a lame stranger with a thin, gaunt face. The days went on, long days in the IDIOMS OF RHODE ISLAND Peculiar Words and Phrases That Are Rarely Heard in Any Other Section of the Country. The use of the word "why" as a preface to a reply to a request for information is peculiar to Rhode Island. "How do you get to Roger Williams Park?" inquires an autoist, "Why? you go out Broad street," is the response. If one is accustomed to finding fault with trivial matters, he's a "fuss-budget." If in good financial circumstances he's "well-off"; if not, he's "down at the heel." An unusual occurrence is apt to call forth the expression, "I never saw the beat of it." As expressing inferiority, one is asked to "take a back seat," and a limitation of information is indicated by "for all that I know." The inelegant threat, "Whil the life out of you," probably has its origin in the mispronunciation of wale—a mark of the rod. To "hang him up" or to "shut his eye" are slang references to obtaining credit and "not toy shop while Laeta painted inevitable dishes and glued together small partitions and hammered tiny nails into position. It was the most natural thing in the world to walk down the crooked street, to see the stranger smiling across the hollyhocks when tea was over and a crescent of silver showed over the dark trees. Now they sat on the white steps and talked, Mr. Jarvis never said very much, but he understood. Laeta knew that. Sometimes she told him her dreams and hopes and more often they watched the white shadows steal across the garden while the fireflies lit tiny torches against the night. There was a long silence, and then Laeta felt her hand was caught tightly. "Laeta, I love you!" "No," Laeta answered gravely. "This isn't love. It can't be. Of course we are friends, only friends, because—" "Because?" he repeated. "I could never love anyone like you. Oh, no, I don't mean to hurt you—but he must be brave and daring—and" "I understand," the man said huskily; "I thought perhaps—I know I have nothing to offer you now—" She heard his crutch tap down the garden path. She heard the gate creak as it swung behind him. Then there was silence in the garden. "I couldn't love him." Laetna told herself over and over again. "I like him, but he is not brave—just kind." But Laetna found the evenings had suddenly grown very long and lonely. Across the high work bench Mr. Jarvis smiled at her in his old gay way, but when dusk had fallen he did not walk with her down the twisted, narrow street, nor did he stand and talk with her across the white gate. One evening she stole out again to the colored rocks and looked far off across the rosy waters; just as though it was another night she heard voices behind her. "the summer people." Two girls in shimmering white were climbing across the rocks. She listened involuntarily. "Have you heard that Tom Jarvis is staying down here trying to get over his shock?" "Not the Jarvis, the aviator who won three decorations and was wounded?" "Simply crazy to meet him—I hear he's girl shy," their voices trailed off and Laeta suddenly knew what she had done. Tom Jarvis, her stranger, the great ace, and she had told him he was not brave enough! She sat there very quietly sunk in despair, while the waves lapped against the rocks, sat there until she heard the sharp sound of a tap-tap across the shelying rocks. Lieta lifted a radiant face to Tom Jarvis. "Can you forgive me?" she asked. Then she saw his slow, glorifying smile. The Acid Test.

"We are called together," said Mr. Gobbler, "to discuss a serious situation—namely, that of getting rid of Mr. Fox. "He has bothered all of us lately very much, but my family in particular have suffered great loss, and now I want to talk over a plan for getting rid of him and I shall be glad of your help in the matter." "I second the motion," quacked Mr. "SISS!" HISSED MR. GANDER "A DIGNIFIED FUNISHMENT INDEED" Drake, "and I suggest that we tar and feather him." "Oh! I think that far too good for him," said Mr. Gander. "I propose that we catch him and pull off his fur, one hair at a time, and then turn him loose. He will be sure to freeze, and that, I am sure, will be a punishment he would not choose." "Let us try to think of some way not so distasteful to refined minds," said Mr. Rooster. "I want him punished as much as any of you, but can it not be done with more dignity? "What do you all say if we catch him and duck him in the pond, then pull him out by the tail and drag him around the barnyard for all to see. I am sure he will be quite upset by being brought so low and will never come around here again." "Siss!" hissed Mr. Gander. "A dignified punishment, indeed. But what will he be doing all this time, may I ask you, Mr. Rooster? "Mr. Fox will jump up and ent you or whoever is dragging him about. No, I think the only thing to do is catch him and shut him up in a cage, feed him on stones—nothing but stones— Peanut Pietro BY KAYEM GRIER SEEMA lika everybody desa coun- try gonna bugahouse bouta basa- ball game.

Y CHATS Lent Forbes BEAUTY CHATS by Edna Kent Forbes MEAL BATHS "WILL you kindly print directions for bran or oatmeal baths, or other baths for improving the texture of the skin?" writes a correspondent. In the same mail came a request for baths to help a rheumatic old lady. So, since our space is brief, I think I will make a list of the various except that bran is used in place of the oatmeal. Many women use smaller bags of oatmeal or bran, in place of the wash cloth, rubbing the meal bag over the skin. The best bath for rheumatism is an Epsom salt bath. This requires about half a pound of the salts dissolved in the bathtub; the patient lies flat in the tub, with just enough water to cover the body, and soaks there till the heat has left the water. Sulphur baths are beneficial to the health also, and are beautifiers as well. Many a sanitarium has made its reputation upon them—and they may be taken at home, if one has the time and patience. In the simplest form, they consist of dissolving flowers of sulphur in the hot bath water, and adding some bicarbonate of soda, such as you use in making up sour milk biscuits. Sanitariums usually add a few more such ingredients and mix with mud, applying this medicated mud to the skin.

"The plans are all very good—very good, indeed," said Mr. Gobbler. "There remains only one thing to do, and that is to choose which one it shall be." "Yes, there is another question which you have not seemed to think of, Mr. Gobbler," said little Brown Hen, who had listened quietly all the time, "and that is, Who is to catch Mr. Fox and how will it be done?" Everyone stood quite still, and then they all suddenly remembered that it was time to eat, and off they all ran to the barnyard as fast as they could go.

There is, first, the oatmeal bath—essentially a bath for beauty. It whitens the skin, makes it wonderfully soft, and acts as a mild bleach. Take about four cupupls of uncooked outmeal, put in a muslin bag, and put the bag in the bath water, if possible letting the water from the faucets run over the bag. Squeeze it before getting into the bath, so the water becomes milky looking. One bagful can be used four or five times. Bran baths are taken the same way.

The "gospel of the full can" is being preached to commercial canners by the United States department of agriculture, through its bureau of chemistry, which enforces the federal food and drugs act, commonly called the "Pure Food Law." Inspectors of the bureau of chemistry advise that all cans of food should be packed as full as practicable without injury to quality. They also advise housewives and other purchasers to note the relative amounts of solids and liquids in the cans they buy, and to give preference to the products of firms that seem to want to give a square deal to the home larder. Examinations of a large number of cans put up by different firms reveal a wide divergence in this particular. Some Liquid Necessary. The bureau of chemistry specialists have made investigations to determine exactly how much solid food—food from which the liquid has been drained—may be put up in the cans of different sizes in common use without in any way injuring the quality of the product. A certain amount of liquid which carries with the different Packed as Full as Practicab WISE HOUSEKEEPERS TO USE LESS SUGAR Usual Amount of Canning of Fruits and Vegetables. Abundant Supply of Sugar Is Predicted for Next Winter—High Prices Have Encouraged Increased Planting of Cane. It will be wisdom on the part of housekeepers to can the usual amount of fruit and vegetables this year, even if part or all of the fruit must be canned without sugar, according to a statement issued by the United States department of agriculture. From all present indications, sugar will be more abundant next winter, when the fruit will be used on the table, the department says. There will apparently be an increased acreage of both cane and beet sugar this year in the United States, Cuba and in other countries in the northern hemisphere. The rise in the price of sugar has encouraged increased plantings of cane and beets. In spite of a world shortage of sugar and a decrease of 400,000,000 pounds in domestic production, there has been used or hoarded during the current year in the United States 15 per cent more sugar than in former years. In fact, a greater supply of sugar than ever has been handled in this country during the past few months with net imports 25 per cent, or over 1,000,000,000 pounds, greater than in any previous period. It is obvious, therefore, that there has been no actual sugar shortage here this year. The difficulties encountered have arisen from the inability of the consumer to secure his share of the supply. Unless enormously increased amounts have been consumed, the trouble must be laid to hoarding and it is very evident that large quantities are being held for future use both housewives and commercial concerns. During the past 50 years the consumption of sugar in the United States has steadily increased, at an average annual rate of one pound per year, until in the last few years the average yearly per capita consumption for all purposes is between 85 and 90 pounds. This compares with a per capita consumption of 58.9 pounds in 1899. The increased consumption of sugar by the soft drink, candy and ice-cream industries during recent years has helped raise the total average, but to what extent is not known. Selecting Best Peas When you buy peas take those that have green and brittle shells and the peas themselves green. If latter are small it is an indication they are young.

Ammonia poured on iodine spots will remove them immediately. products, is necessary. The addition of more liquid than is necessary results in less food in the can, make an inferior product, wastes shipping and storing space, and is unfair to the consumer. An honest pack promotes fair dealing, conserves containers, food and shipping facilities, and aids the development of the canning industry. Quantity in Each Can. The quantity of drained food, which is the solid food exclusive of liquid, that can be put more efficiently and economically in each of the various sized cans in common use, has been determined for peas, beans, cherries, pears and peaches, and the canning industry been advised of the results. In making a declaration of contents on cans of fruits and vegetables under the net weight requirement of the federal food and drugs act, the total weight of the contents of the can, liquid included, should be declared. Complete information regarding the application of the federal food and drugs act, to canned fruits and vegetables will be sent upon application to the United States department of agriculture, Washington, D. C. le Without Injury to Quality. USE CARE IN WEANING BABY It Should Never Be Done for Convenience of Mother and Never Without Doctor's Advice. (By U. S. Public Health Service.) The baby should usually be completely weaned at the end of the first year. Up to this time breast milk should be given to the baby as long as it thrives. It is better, when possible, to continue nursing through the summer and to wean in the fall, but if the year has not been completed in the spring, it is better to wean in the summer than in the spring. Do not wean the baby suddenly; it should be done gradually by replacing one breast feeding at a time with a bottle feeding. Several weeks are required for weaning. It is dangerous to wean a young baby. It should not be done for the convenience of the mother and should never be done without the advice of a physician. TO CLEAN NICKEL ARTICLES Wash Frequently in Hot Soapy Water and Dry With Soft Cloth—Whit-ing Can Be Used. Nickel and nickel-plated articles do not tarnish so readily as silver. Washing them frequently with hot soapy water and drying them with soft cloth or paper will usually keep them in good condition. Whiting, or some other fine scourer, may sometimes be used to brighten nickel that has become dull, but such a condition often means that the surface is scratched or the plating broken. Replacing is the only remedy in such cases. Household Questions Remove the burned surface of bread with a grater. Slip covers for the furniture are desirable in summer. Do not place cold jars, either filled or unfilled, in hot water. Amber or gold is easier on the eyes than any other color for a lamp shade or bulb. For paring or cutting vegetables a knife with a blade only three inches long is best. Little embroidered guest towels, cut in two and properly finished, make excellent bibs for babies. In season shrimps are a good buy, for there is little waste and the solid meat is highly nutritious. The flavor of tea, coffee and spices is injured by moisture; therefore, store them in air-tight containers. Use your silver or aluminum teaball filled with spices or herbs 10 immerse in soups or preserves. SIMPLICITY OF THE NEW COAT STYLES 1 Two Suits Worthy of Note M EVER since the curtain rose on the drama of fall and winter fashions the discerning, practical woman has found reason to congratulate herself in the matter of coat styles. They are of a simplicity that warrants their wear everywhere and of a beauty that makes glad the heart. Some of them are nothing more than capes with sleeves added, all of them are cut in long and almost unbroken lines, except those made of fabrics that imitate furs, which follow the lines of the coats made of skins. Velours, duvety, bolivin, and similar soft and pilable cloths give grace and comfort to the coats for this winter, and high fur collars, that fit snugly, top them off with the luxury of fur. Occasionally there are cuffs of fur, and where there is no fur at all, very ample muffler collars of cloth, or crepe collars, provide the same suggestion of comfort, aided by the fact that coats are long enough to reach to the bottom of the dress skirt. Two Suits W THOSE who are partial to long coats and to double-breasted models will approve the handsome suit at the left of the two shown here. With the authority of a great Parisian name back of it, it can take its place among many companions, with shorter coats, secure in the knowledge of its origin and its fine style. It is made of velours in one of those new strong blue shades, and black caracut fur never found a more effective background to serve as a foli to its richness. Paquin is among those who have sponsored the long coat, and she is not alone. In this coat there is at least a hint of the Russian inspiration. It fastens with a single large and handsome button at the left side, its collar of carcul is very wide, and its deep pointed pockets of fur are finished with two buttons and a long tassel on each. The loose, narrow belt is extended into a girdle and looped over at the front, after the manner of belts generally, and the plain skirt also follows the mode attending the increased The uses to which organdie has been put in making frocks are wholly amazing and quite beyond the dreams of the unimaginative. For example, what could be more amusing than a little white French frock, which made its appearance in Paris, built on the most conservative lines of the Eton suit and trimmed all about its edges with insertions of lace and with a girdle of turquoise fallle ribbon? Even the tailored redingote is frequently seen in organdie of a pastel shade, Designers who must produce variety while they preserve simplicity of line introduce ingenious cutting and unusual management of details and accessories for this purpose. An example appears in the handsome cloth coat shown in the picture, in which capacious pockets are formed by means of panels inserted under arms. These pockets are curved at the top and finished with machine stitching. The second coat is one of those woven fur garments that look so much like sealskin. Women who like the richness of fur, but have scruples against it ought to be pleased with this model, for it is hard to distinguish the fabric from the pelt. Real fur is used for the wide collar, plain cuffs, and shaped bands on the pockets, and there are many kinds that might be employed, as skunk, squirrel fox, beaver. The coat hangs almost straight, with a slight flare toward the bottom at the back, emphasized by a band of fur placed as a border. orthy of Note length of skirts to at least the shoe tops. The suit at the right is as unusual as to its coat, as its companion. This coat is noteworthy because of its full, rippled skirt, which begins at the front by adopting the average length of coat, but adds both length and fullness as it progresses toward the back. Imagine it in brown cheviot with the large motifs about the waistline embroidered in slik to match, or in any other of the season's favorite colors that look well with sealskin, which is used for the wide collar. It has a narrow belt of the material, which follows the lap-across fashion at the front. In this suit, as in the majority of others, the skirt. It almost goes without saying, is plain, a little longer and a little wider; than those that preceded it in the early fall.

OCTOBER 9. 1920 WASHINGTON SIDELIGHTS Once More the Nicaragua Canal Project First Wireless Heard Round the World Milk With a Delicious Sawdust Flavor Milk With a Delicious Sawdust Flavor A Possible Election Hitch—Other Items New Marine Act May Abrogate Treaties WASHINGTON.—Recently the United States government, by a payment of $3,000,000, has acquired the exclusive right to dig a canal across Nicaragua—a step prompted by a report that Great Britain and Japan contemplated the project as a joint enterprise on their own account, anyway, so says report. This is interesting because the Nicaragua canal may yet be dug to supplement for commercial purposes the facilities of the Panama ditch. The route would be 334 miles shorter from New York to San Francisco than by way of the Isthmus; and the canal THE first message from the United States naval radio station, known as the Lafayette radio station, at Bordeaux, France, which is undergoing official acceptance tests, has been received here. The message follows: "This is the first wireless message to be heard around the world and marks a milestone on the road of scientific achievement." Secretary Daniels sent the following message in reply: "My sincere congratulations upon the successful completion of the gigantic radio station named for that distinguished Frenchmen whom all Americans honor. Designed to serve a military, purpose, it will now serve to bind closer the cordial relations which have always existed between France and the United States. On behalf of the United States navy, I desire to express my pleasure upon the achievement of the Lafayette radio station in transmitting the first message to be heard around the world. We are happy to recognize in this powerful signal a symbol of that force and sympathetic understanding with which the voice of France shall be heard by its sister republic." The Lafayette radio station was built by the United States navy de- SN'T there a hoary old yarn about a man who equipped his donkey with green spectacles and tried to educate it to eat shavings? Well, anyway, he wasn't a circumstance to Uncle Sam. He's going to fatten up our cows and make 'em give more milk on a diet of sawdust. By chemical treatment sawdust may be converted into a nourishing cattle food. This fact was made public at a sectional meeting of industrial and engineering chemists, American Chemical society, at the University of Chicago. White sawdust, finely ground, is treated with diluted sulphuric acid in POSSIBILITIES growing out of the Tennessee suffrage tangle are being officially considered, notwithstanding the fact that Connecticut has since made a ratification of sorts. The possibilities arise out of constitutional provisions that a candidate must have a majority in the electoral college to secure his election. If courts should declare, after the election has occurred, that the Tennessee ratification of suffrage was illegal all women's votes cast under authority of the nineteenth amendment also would be illegal, and there would be nothing to do but throw out the whole vote of states where such illegal voting had occurred. Thus, no candidate would have a majority of the electors and the house of representatives would elect the president. DISTRIBUTION of President Wilson's flock of sheep, which have roamed the White House lawns for several years, began when a score were shipped to "somewhere in Virginia." EXAMINATION by the state department of commercial treaties to which the United States is a signatory has revealed that between 24 and 27 of such pacts have to be abrogated under the new merchant marine act, it is said by department officials. Section 34 of the mercant marine act requires the president to give formal notice to foreign governments having commercial treaties with the United States that the American government intends to revoke any claims of the conventions which prevent the giving of preferential treatment to Americans or American ships. Offi 北川羌族自治县 北川羌族自治县 北川羌族自治县 would not cost more than one-third as much as that of Panama—barring, however, the risen price of labor and materials. Looking at the map, one sees that Nicaragua is wide compared with the Isthmus of Panama. But also one observes that much of its narrowest part is occupied by an immense lake, 100 miles long and 45 miles broad, out of which a large river, called the San Juan, runs eastward all the way of the Caribbean sea. A strip only 12 miles wide separates the lake from the Pacific ocean; three-fourths of the river's length is navigable, and thus, as it might be said, most of the digging has already been done by nature. There would be, as a matter of fact, about 48 miles of ditch to be dug; but nearly all of this is through lowlands, and the job would be correspondingly easy. The distance across the Tehuantepec neck is 125 miles as the crow flies. partment, under the direction of the bureau of engineering and the bureau of yards and docks. Its construction was begun during the war to maintain wireless communication between this country and our forces in France, since at that time there was grave fear that German submarines might be able to cut the trans-oceanic cables and leave Fershing isolated so far as immediate communication with the United States was concerned. The station now completed is the largest in the world. It has eight 820-foot towers, and its engineering features, while in general modeled on those of our naval stations at Arlington and Annapolis, are unique both in their magnitude and in some features of their design. a large boiler known as a digester, under steam pressure. This breaks up the fiber and extracts the sugar. To prevent injurious effects, the acid is neutralized by adding lime to produce chemical reaction. The liquid thus obtained, when boiled down, is rich in sugar, and when mixed with the fiber produces a moist food containing about 15 per cent of water, in which form it is fed to dairy cows. At the forest products laboratory, United States department of agriculture, Madison, Wis., experiments proved that three cows thrived on this sawdust ration and not only gave more milk, but increased in weight. So says Uncle Sam. The result was so satisfactory that the government has decided to take the matter up on a larger scale at the experiment stations throughout the country and furnish a detailed report on the value of hydrolyzed sawdust as cattle food. So says Uncle Sam. So there you are. Probably milk cream and butter, with a delicious sand-dust flavor will soon be added to the H. C. L. THE recent demotion of Brig. Gen. George Barrett from the rank of major general, commandant of the marine corps, and the fact that no action has been taken on his application for appointment as major general to fill a new existing vacancy, is exciting lively comment in navy and marine corps circles. BUYERS of stills, beware, or the government will get you. All buyers must swear that they will use stills only for water, and records of all sales and resales will be kept. clals express the belief that entire abrogation of the treaties would result from the notice of the president, as it is not thought that other nations will consent to the amendment of treaties in order to enable the United States to discriminate against their own commerce and shipping. Although considerable doubt exists as to the precise interest of congress as expressed in the merchant marine act on account of the radical consequences which must result in the strict carrying out of section 34, there are ten treaties which are considered as specifically falling within the provisions of the statute which probably will have to be abrogated. Although the state department has not made public the list of affected treaties, the ten conventions expected to be terminated are known to include those with Belgium, Bolivia, Costa Rica, Denmark, Great Britain, Honduras, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Paraguay, Serbia and Spain. In the case of all, however, 12 months' notice must be given of the intention abrogate SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON (By REV. P. B. FITZWATER, D. D. Teacher of English in the Moody Bible Institute of Chicago.

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC - JEWS, ORGANIZATION TERMATION YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC -Victory Over Appetite, Pride and Ambition. I. The Baptism of Jesus (3:13-17) While the forerunner was discharging his office, the King emerged from his seclusion at Nazareth and demanded baptism at John's hands. The incongruity of this with the purpose of baptism brought from John a protest, but Jesus' explanation was satisfactory, so John baptized him. Touching Christ's baptism, note: 1. Its significance. (1) Negatively. (a) It did not mean his own obedience to the commandment of God, because his entire life had been lived entirely within the will of God. Not a moment in his entire life but what was lived entirely in accordance with the Father's will. (b) Not because he had sin, for he was absolutely sinless, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners. This separation was so complete that even the devil could find no occasion against him (John 14:30). (2) Positively. Its significance is found in harmony with the central purpose of his coming into the world, which was to secure for his people salvation through death, burial and resurrection. This act was the official entrance upon his work. It was an act of consecration on his part to the work of saving his people through sacrifice. Baptism is a sinner's ordinance. Christ was baptized not because he had sinned, but because he took the place of sinners—to be a substitute for them. He was so devoted to them that he entered upon his mission by submitting to the ordinance, which typified death, burial and resurrection. 2. Approval from the opened heavens (vv. 16, 17). Immediately following his consecration to his work, the heavens were opened and the Spirit came and abode upon him, followed by words of approval from the Father. These all were essential for the work upon which Christ now entered—revelation (heavens opened), inspiration (dove abode upon him), and approval (words from the Father). II. The Temptation of Jesus (4:1-11). This temptation was the opening battle of the dreadful conflict between Christ and Satan. In this struggle, note: 1. The combatants. (1) Jesus Christ, the Divine Man, now entering upon his mediatorial work. He went immediately from the place of annotating and heavenly recognition as the Son of God to meet the arch-enemy of the race. (2) The devil. He was a real person filled with cunning and malice. 2. The battle ground—the Wilderness of Juden. The first man was tempted in a garden with the most pleasant surroundings and failed; the second man was tempted in a bare wilderness and gloriously triumphed. 3. The method of attack. Since as our Redeemer Christ sustains a threefold relationship, Son of Man, Son of God and as Messiah, each one was made a ground of attack. (1) As Son of Man. This was a test of the reality of his humanity which he obtained through the Virgin birth was real. The appeal was made to the instinct of hunger. Hunger is natural and sinless. Having been forty days and nights without food, as a normal man, Christ had a craving appetite. While the appetite was not sinful, to have satisfied it in a wrong way would have been sin. (2) Son of God. It was to test as to whether this personality which had taken upon itself humanity, was divine. The devil quoted from a Messianic Psalm to get him to presume upon God's care. God does care for his own, but to neglect common precaution—to do the uncleared for thing just to put God's promise to a test is to sin and fall. (3) As Messiah. Christ's mission as Messiah was to recover this world from the devil. Now the devil offers to surrender to him on the simple condition that he adopt his method, thus obviating the necessity of the cross. The kingdoms were really Christ's, and he knew that they would ultimately become his. The inducement was to get immediate possession without the sufferings of the cross. 4. The defense—the Word of God, Christ met the enemy each time and repulsed him with "It is written." Each time he quoted from Deuteronomy, the book which the higher critics would discredit as reliable. 5. The issue—the enemy is completely routed. The strong man is bound, so the spoiling of his house was possible. Soul Was Made for Joy. There is a strange possibility of gladness latent in all sorrow. That is why the people who suffer and struggle most are often among those who are most surely happy. Your soul was made for joy, as surely as a harp was made for music. Upholding Christ and Church. Don't think for a moment that you are doing anybody a favor by upholding Christ and his church. The Lord of this universe needs no upholding by us, unless he condescends to use us.—Bishop Houden.

This is due to the finding of 25 long-buried human skeletons in a sand pit on the bank of the Leguna Patre, about fifteen miles east of here. Since then well-preserved pieces of ship timbers have been uncovered near the grewsome spot. The skeletons were discovered by Thomas Steele and O. S. Atwood of Corpus Christi. If this group of ill-fated men were members of the crew of Laulitte's treasure ship the discovery of their skeletons bears out the tale that has been handed down by the descendants of the native Mexican population of the Gulf coast region that the pirate chief did not go to Yucatan when he left Galveston island, but that he sought safety from his avengers by locating upon Padre island at a point just opposite where the skeletons were found.

It was set aside in 1909 as the Munkuntuwep National Monument, with 15,540 acres. In 1918 it was made the Zion National Monument, with 76,500 acres. Congress created it a national park November 19, 1919. Director Stephen T. Mather of the national park service presided at the dedication. Gov.

The sweetly peaceful scene in the little sitting room was suddenly disturbed by a loud yell, and the honored guest sprang wildly from the chair into which he had just sunk, while the daughter of the house felt her face grow pale. She had had hopes from this visit. Alas, poor girl, were they to be blighted? But father took the matter—and his small son—firmly in hand. With a graceful apology he removed the bent pin from the chair and the aforesaid small boy from the room. "Now, look here, Charles," he said sternly, in the back yard, "why did you do it" "It—it was an experiment, father!" faltered the liddle. "An experiment!" snorted father. The only man who has visited your poor sister for years, and you go and drive Lim away! "Well, dad," explained the boy, "he advertises that he is a painless dentist, an' I wanted to find out if it was true, an' it wasn't. You should have heard him yell." "Yes," was the father's grim comment. "And some one else is going to hear you yell now!" "Do you mean to say that an old-timer like you feels uneasy when called upon to make a political speech?" "Yes," admitted Senator Sorghum, "though I won't say it's exactly stage fright. You never can tell when everything might have gone your way if you hadn't happened to spring the wrong epigram or funny story."

Agency Directors, 1515 East 18th Street, KANSAS CITY, MO. IS PROF. BOWSER FAIR Mr. Samuel R. Hopkins, of the Square Deal Oil and Gas Co., challenges the statements appearing in last week's Sun and gives facts and figures to show Negro Companies are on the square. A RED HOT PEPLY Are the writings of J. Dallas Bowser, which appear in The Kansas City Sun from time to time, an uplift or a detriment to the Negro citizens of this great commonwealth? Is he in a position to criticize and condemn at will legitimate Negro enterprises without the slightest authentic knowledge of their progress and without ever having operated, a legitimate business of his own? Does his writings tend to create places of congenial and profitable employment for our young men and women when they graduate from the schools and colleges; or do they tend to close the door of opportunity and advancement to our young generation? Do they stimulate race progress in the various lines of commercial enterprises or do they tend to retard, tear down and root out of existence all the great progress that has been made in the business world by the young Negro of today? The object of this article is to prove to the public that his writings are uncalled for; that they are not true; that they are narrow and selfish; that they are false and misleading and that they are not only a detriment and a slap at our great commercial progress in this city but that of our entire race as well. This article was written without malice or ill-feeling. Having had a large and extensive practical knowledge in conducting two of Kansas City's most successful business establishments, I believe it is my duty to myself and to the progressive business interests of Kansas City that the article I shall discuss should not be permitted to go unanswered, since it is a detriment and a setback rather than an uplift to the Negroes of this community. The article I have reference to appeared on the front page of The Kansas City Sun under date of October 2, 1920. It was headed thus: "Endorsements and Testimonials—Missourians Demand to Be Shown." By J. Dallas Bowser." It begins: "No recent happenings in Kansas City has meant so much to its Negro population as the refusal of the Park Board to permit all carnivals in the future of the character that on several occasions operated their various gambling schemes and devices in the neighborhood of 17th street and the Paseo. Anyone of these misnamed educational shows comprised all the vicious influences of Coney Island, Monte Carlo and a Louisiana Lottery combined. Nobody could hope in the long run to beat the game. Besides the thousands of dollars that were carried out of the city during an engagement, a carnival was the means of gathering together from every quarter of the city hundreds of undesirable, thugs, pickpockets, professional gamblers to mingle with the thousands of well meaning persons of all ages and conditions who were tempted to hazard a dime or a dollar for a chance to bring home a chicken, a ham or a sack of flour. The Park Board has been misinformed in the past; it has labored under the opinion that the masses of Colored people hungered gered for such demoralizing forms of amusement. When confronted by a delegation of citizens who indignantly refused to endorse these and all other schemes of graft and luck, the Park Board acted at once for all time during the terms of the present membership. "Testimonials are often necessary guarantee of honesty and sincerity. A church member from a distance wishing to join a nearby congregation brings his letter from his Mother Church. Such is the procedure also if a member from a secret lodge desires to attach himself to an order in another city. Testimonials establish confidence, medicines, toilet preparations, household conveniences are sold upon the same basil." We would glean from the above statements that the Negroes of Kansas City are to have no more carnivals. You would also form the opinion that the persons who were the instigators of these carnivals coming to Kansas City were demoralizing, grafters and gamblers. Let us look back a minute and see who these persons are whom are looked upon in such a light. Let us inquire under whose auspices they were held; who are the Negro Shriners in Kansas City? What class of men belong to Allah Temple No. 6 of the Imperial Council, A. E. A., Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North and South America? Being a member of this noble and ancient order, I am aware that it is one of the highest branches of Masonry. A large majority of Kansas City's leading Negro men are members of this great Order, yet it was this great body of men, these Negroes, this high branch of Masonry who brought the first carnival under discussion to Kansas City, which has been described by our eminent critic as a gathering of undesirable, thugs pickpockets and professional gamblers. Who are the Knights of Pythias in Kansas City? What class of people belong to them? Their membership will also show that most of our leading Negro citizens belong to their rank, yet it was this commendable organization, under whose auspices one of these demoralizing carnivals mentioned above were held. The last and largest of these so-called, misnamed educational shows which as stated above by our self-styled critic, comprise all the vicious influence of Coney Island, Monte Carlo and a Louisiana Lottery combined, was brought here under the auspices of our grand and noble order of, Elks, known as the famous Mid-West Lodge No. 233, I. B. P. O. E. of W. To this great and progressive lodge belongs the leading business men, lawyers, doctors, teachers, undertakers, brokers, working men and professional men of every class and kind in Kansas City. It was this lodge that brought an everlasting praise to the Negro citizens of Kansas City on account of its wonderful demonstration and the success of its grand lodge held last August. The three orders mentioned above are not only composed of the best class of Negroes in Kansas City but in the United States as well. It was these Orders, these men, that brought the carnivals under discussion in Kansas City. It was their wise council and under their recommendations that they were brought here. It is a certain fact that if all the things mentioned above concerning these carnivals were true these orders which are composed of upright and progressive, intelligent men would not have permitted the carnivals to come here at all. The truth of the matter is this that only selfish and narrow minded persons could form such evil and false opinions. I have said the foregoing that I might prove that the article under discussion is not only a detriment and a setback to the commercial interest of the business Negroes of Kansas City but to the entire Race as well. Before going into the commercial side of this affair, let us see who J. Dallas Bowser is. What has he ever done for his race other than that for which he has been paid? Has he a business establishment. If so, where is his business located? How many young men and wohen fresh from the colleges does he employ? One would think since he has attempted to condemn and criticize Negro business enterprises that he would be a person who had or has conducted several successful business enterprises himself in order to form such conclusive opinions of others. Not so in this critic's case. You find stated in the article under discussion that when a church member from a distant church comes to join a nearby church he brings a letter from the distant congregation. One would believe from the foregoing statement that unless a person from a distant church had a letter of reference to present to a nearby church that he would be unwelcomed. The absurdity of this statement is manifest. Christianity teaches us that all a person needs to join any church, whether they have a recommendation from a distant church or any other church is to profess religion and live a Christian life. The latter part of his article reads as follows: "It is a source of gratification that the Government is looking into many of the oil lotteries and mining fakes with which the country is cursed. The investigation will doubtless eliminate many companies who have had no other asset than "mule-cuech." Kansas City has an unenviable reputation of housing more grafting organizations than any city in the land. If the oil companies in our midst were required to publish each the name of shareholders or purchasers of stock who have received dividends from the real flow of oil from any real well, confidence in such exploitation would be very greatly strengthened. On the other hand, it is a well known fact that the ten per cent dividends that Thomas or Brown receives comes out of the dollar or dollars that Williams or Jones advances for the respective shares while in turn their own dividends will come out of the pockets of Thomas or Brown or some other investor. It is well that the Government is demanding to be shown. So are the Missourians in Kansas City. Let the promoters come forth with a list of actual lucky shareholders; otherwise, take a delegation of reliable citizens down into the oil district and show it a simon-pure, bona fide flowing well to the property to the said exhibitors." In the beginning the term "mule-cheek" is used. I should think that the term "mule-cheek" would be more applicable to the critic's case rather than the oil companies which he speaks of so boldly without definitely knowing anything about their real progress other than hearsey. He stated that it is gratifying to know that the Government is taking a look into the oil lottery in Kansas City. He also stated concerning the ten per cent dividend paid Thomas or Brown are dollars that Williams or Jones advanced for respective shares. I would state here that all the Negro oil companies in Kansas City are not lotteries. I might also state that the company the writer has the honor of representing is a legitimately organized corporation, incorporated under the stringent Blue Sky Laws of the State of Missouri, known as the Square Deal Oil and Gas Company, with an authorized capitalization of $99,000.00. Up to date the company has drilled seven wells and has three oil wells connected up and pumping and selling oil. As for its ten per cent dividend paid, every dollar that was paid its stockholders was paid from justly returned profits made by the company. As for the Government, most of the Negro oil companies in Kansas City have been organized for more than three years and if the companies were irregularly conducted they would have been compelled to cease business long before now. In the latter part of his article he states: "Let the promoter come forward and take a delegation of reliable NATIONAL THEATRE Independence and Charlotte Sts. WILLIAM FOX SUPER SPECIAL PRESENTATION TOM MIX in his greatest picture "THE DARE DEVIL" Action—Thrills—Adventure and Love. Extra—EDDIE POLO EPISODE 11, and side-splitting comedy. Notice—Notice.

HART IN "THE TOLL GATE" A Paramount Aircraft Picture citizens down into the oil district and show simon-pure, bona fide flowing wells to the property to the said exhibitors." I wonder who in our critic's estimation would be reliable? We have taken several delegations to our oil fields and shown them our real oil wells. We have nearly two thousand stockholders in our company. About two hundred of them consist of some of the leading and most progressive Negroes in Kansas City, the other eighteen hundred are scattered throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and Central America. As to just what the investing Negro public thinks of our company is shown by the large number of stockholders we have and the way they are increasing daily. They are satisfied. We are ever ready to take any prospective subscriber to our oil field and show them what we say is true. That what we advertise we can back up. We are not, though, wasting the company's funds taking critics to see our oil wells simply to convince their curiosity when we know from their past records that they have never invested a nickel in their lives in any legitimate Negro enterprise. In the beginning of this article the question was asked, "Are J. Dallass Bowser's writings an uplift or a detriment to our race?" I say here, and I am certain that you will agree with me by this time, they are a detriment. We asked some place above, who is J. Dallas Bowser? In reading a sketch of his life, which appears in the biography of Kansas City Negro Business and Professional Men and the Trip South, by H. L. Kinsler, it states in part: He was born in Ohio; has lived in Kansas City fifty-two years. During that time, according to his sketch, he taught school forty-two years, and held a few minor political jobs the other ten. No place in his life's sketch do we hear of his being in any kind of business. Never have we heard of him opening an office and giving employment to any of our boys and girls; yet he is ever ready to criticize, condemn and tear down every legitimate Negro enterprise for the good of his race, unless it strikes his fancy. Another place in the sketch of his life, it states that he has retired from active service except for an occasional "dabble" in real estate. I don't quit understand the word "dabble," unless he means to buy an old house for a small figure and sell it at an enormous profit to some of our poor Negroes who are in great need of a home at any price. This is not the case of the writer of this article. Within the last twelve months he has sold approximately two hundred thousand dollars' worth of the choicest property in Kansas City to Negroes and not one person who has ever purchased a piece of property through the company he represents, known as the Square Deal Realty and Investment Company, with one of the finest suites of offices in the West, located at 1315 East 18th street, giving highly paid positions to many of our young men and women, can say that they have received anything at our hands other than one of the best real estate bargains obtainable. Then again, to dabble in real estate may mean that one does not have a business address or pay a broker's license. I mention these things simply to prove that the critic who is condemning legitimate Negro business in Kansas City has never been in any kind of business. One should not sit around basing their theory on suppositions and hearsay, condemning at will without any cause, without any foundation, without proof, those that are striving to make a success in the various lines of the Negro business world. Such articles as written by J. Dallas Bowser are, as I have stated above, not only a detriment to the Negro business of Kansas City and elsewhere, but are set-backs is not disproven in time to our entire Race as well. This article was not written as a personal matter nor in defense of the Negro oil companies alone but in defense of Negro business enterprises in general and the welfare of the entire Negro Race.

He made the first varsity team his Freshman year, playing against such teams as Harvard, Dartmouth, Princeton and Syracuse, and such men as Spear of Dartmouth, Dadmon of Harvard, Hoog of Princeton and Schlaster and Trigg of Syracuse. His coaching career began at his high school with the baseball team, bringing his team from last position in the school league. That fall he took charge of the football team, winning four and tying one game, resigning in the face of a long list of petitioned names on the return of the High School Faculty and immediately going to coach Boston College on October 13, 1917, with Charley Brickley as First Assistant to him, Boston College, recognizing his ability as a coach. He has worked with O'Donnell of Holy Cross, Brickley of Harvard, Bob Fowler, the noted Marathon runner; Whelan of Tufts, Cavanaugh of Dartmouth, Sweeney of the Boston Braves, of whom he is an admirer and student of his style of play. He was in charge of the 15th Battalion athletes at Camp Dix, where his boxing teams included such men as Eddie Dorsay, Bill Tate, and Jack Thompson.

Scott, Secretary-Treasurer, Howard University, Washington, D. C. Howard's New Football Coach. Washington, D. C.—At Howard University this year the chief topic of the day is centered in the new coach, Dr. W. E. Morrison. It is true that he needs no lengthy essay introducing him to our host of friends, yet it seems but sportsmanlike to give our friends a short regime of his athletic achievements in order that our minds may be refreshed as to his abilities and to give us a general idea of his general scheme for "Old Howard's Pass" into the realm of athletics. Prior to the war, all eyes and thoughts were turned in the direction of Bill Brown and Ed Morrison, the two Colored members of Tuft's College eleven when that varsity team defeated Harvard and played the Princeton University team to a standstill, only to be beaten in the last minute of play by a long drop kick. Much speculation was inudged in as to the outcome of that game, and more so because of the attitude of Princeton toward the two Colored boys on the Tufts team, and grave doubts were entertained by the Boston papers that the boys would escape serious injury. It was a grim and determined struggle which these lads can tell of. The same grit and determined struggle which these lads can tell of. The same grit and determination required to play in this historic game we feel assured Dr. Morrison will impart to our Howard eleven when they go upon the field of football battles with any of our opponents. Dr. Morrison has a long and enviable record in sports which most any follower of sports in New England will tell you of off hand. He began his career of prominence at Everett High School with those never to be forgotten baseball and football teams which won national prestige of not being defeated in four years, and only scored on in football in three years and twice in four years. In football his kicking and general playing caused him to be chosen for the mythical All-Interscholastic Teams and as the best line man that ever dressed a moleskin in High School. His record in baseball as a batter shows an average well over 300 for four years and in track and basketball with Y. Hor-ton-a Grew This Hair. We Can Prove It.

Money to Loan On Everything. By Chas. A. Starks. Harper: "What ever become of old Winter who use' to work here?" Sharper: "Why, he left 'bout th' time Spring started with us." A young customer could not understand why I addressed him always as my explosive firend. His nickname is "Dynamite." The Chicago Whip carries a news item stating the arrest of Emil Craft for selling whiskey on a train. We might observe that the most crafty may get caught sometimes. I am a disciple of the religion to do good for the other fellow. I love that which is rational and scientific in every line of human effort to sweeten the tone of existence. We can not get the Truth without first being of radical thought. True Radicalism, and there is but one leads to the fundamental, in fact is the fundamental itself. There is no middle ground between what is and what is not. IT HAPPENED IN CHICAGO. He roomed at her house. They liked each other. They decided to live together in another home. He bought the furniture. They lived as man and wife just one year. Had everything but a marriage license They fell out. She wanted half the furniture, but the Judge said "no." Nothing like that ever happens in Old K. C.-! FOOD FOR FANS The season for The Western Circuit of the National Negro Base Ball League is now practically terminated. It has been one of the most important things of the year, this organization of baseball clubs ito a league. We make the same statement now that we did at the beginning of the season; Negro baseball properly organized offers at once a large and lucrative field for the colored athlete. This is something that he has never enjoyed before in an appreciable degree. But this season of League ball among Negroes has been far reaching in many other ways that are good. For instance it has given the Negro public an opportunity to explode off their surplus steam on something that redounds to the credit of their own. I have but little time for those bruette enthusiasts who go daffy with interest in the white variety, the which to see they have to scan from the bleachers, when you can be just as daft as you like about the Ethiorians, as Dudley will say. Yes, the local team who represent us in your league is a good one. The team is a source of pride to local people. Sunday baseball has meant much to the Colored Kansas Citian, because it has provided him with clean cut amusement by way of recreating himself with enthusiasm. Baseball is an intelligent game and is therefore elevating to the fan who receives the same electric spark that ten thousand more receive who are watching the game. We say it is elevating to have people thinking on plays, laughing, shouting, censuring the players, prashing them and offering in lots of cases, valuable criticism. This really gives tone to the mind. Last week the Monarchs fought the A. B. C.'s successfully. They played three games. The standing of the two semi-series is as follows: Saturday, Sept. 25, Monarchs won 5 to 2. Sunday, no game on account of rain. Monday, 15 inning tie. Tuesday, Monarchs, 6 to 1. Saturday, Oct. 2, A. B. C., 7 to 6. Sunday, Monarchs, 5 to 4. Second game, Tie 4 to 4 in the sixth inning. The Monarchs play the American and National leaguers Saturday and Sunday. THE BOX BACK COAT, ITS PSCYCHOLOGY. You would be surprised to know the deep significance in two creases of the back of a coat which are seperated by the extreme width of the back, one going down from the right arm, the other from the left. The creases are so pronounced and sharp that one indeed gets the impression that the anatomy embodies between the hips and shoulders is truly boxed, so square is the effect. With trousers creased along the same hard lines; feet encased in comodious Chicago "Flats;" with brown "dip" or black "raw edge"; and you care to figure a cigarette or Jazz-bow the tangle nifty over an extravagant silk shirt and you have the box-back king to perfection. But where does the psychology come in, you ask. We will let the antics of the exponents answer the question. Ask any young scamp (except a few who represent the english gentry) how he is going to have that next suit made, and his ready reply is "Box-Back!" And he will go into a state of convulsions at the prospects of its fit, touching him, as he says, "no place but on the shoulders." So here we find this young Negro thoroughly engrossed in securing a box-back. His earthly ambition runs no higher than his coat collar. The social atmosphere that the old box-back class engender is intoxicating to the youthful aspirant and he is easily lured by this kind of personal embellishment. You tell me this is not psychology when professional crooks and gamblers by a studied style of dress are able to influence our tender to such a degree in the matter of their likes and tastes? The stage is easy from liking what the social parasites wear to what they practice in their nefarious ways. As a rule, not always, when a young man acquires a box-back suit, insignia of the expert loafer, that is when he usually forms a distaste for home life and its proper restraints. Work also becomes obnoxious to him. The psychology is now subtly working, and only good common sense on the part of some ittered party will stop it ere it reaches even criminal developments. CHRIST A RADICAL? Why wasn't He? Didn't He go to the extreme when He turned over the tables of the gamblers in the temple? Why didn't He have the city councils to pass a special ordinance to deal with the connivance? Or why didn't He seek out the biggest political boss and enlist his interest by paying him a little interest to become interested? Even in the Healing Art Christ was a radical. He refused the doubtful, unscientific practices of the discipline of physics and demonstrated the miraculous Metaphysics. What more natural, said He, than to say to this man: "Arise, take up the bed and walk." The reason why Christ was a radical is because He went to the roots of every case that he treated, whether it was political, sociological or what not. That's what Radicalism means, back to the roots, and—but sometime soon we will answer the question: What is Radicalism? Other subjects to be discussed are: Learning Economics, The World of Color, Miscegenation, and a score of other things that touch the very soul of the race. AUTUMN FLURRIES. It is probably a blessing that under any circumstances we can look above the din of racial and political strife and see the real beauty of life that Autumn brings to us in the changing of seasons. These are days which should be brimful of sweet thoughts, when the year, like that part of life, mellows down to the matchless period of maturity. (One going north on Vine street from 18th, soon runs across the Parade Way into a park, part of a system that includes the beautiful Paseo. In approaching the eastern end of the Bath House he is forced by a beaten path to pass under a large old stump of a tree, that extends its now rusty arms far out more and more like a giant octupus. We are sure that it is the lack of foliage that produces this effect. However, I am trying to tell you that we sat under this old tree only yesterday, watching the passerbury, going to and fro, up and down the haunts of urban life. It is grand that here in the heart of the city, mid its grim and painful toil we can get a message from the old tree—this is what we received: Soft touches of love when hot summer's fled, Left the earth bare and naked—only dreams, But richer than Spring's warm decadent smile, Why should green turn to red, sign of pathos? Why should foliage give place to nudity? There's in the breath of air a new charm hovering. Doubtful, tokening some fear, yet we hope. If spring brings the more glorious summer, Doth not Autumn presage the grander Snows? Mayhap 'tis circumstance that colors all And renders inane the glorified season. Which stands between what has been and will be. The last lap of experience brings life With confidence calm we may now look on. Leaves are falling, our vision clarifies We see heart and hulk hitherto hidden; The naked trees tell perennial glories The uncrowned Oak stands in the rolling years; Strong, reflecting the immortal, Saying: What now you see today has been before. You've looked on Life, you know the balmy winds. Your children may see me again in bloom.

My Dear Sir: I have been requested by Mr. and Mrs. H. Compton to make a statement to the public relative to alleged remarks of your concerning the business that they conduct at 18th and Woodland. These people deem said alleged remarks as hurtful and injurious to their characters as well as their business. If such an incident did happen as is alleged by the Comptons, you should by all means do justice to these people as I seek to do justice to you by asking you personally of the matter and trying to save a public discussion of the question. Whether you made the remarks or not, the rumor is, abroad, and I feel that you would be glad to make a positive statement to the institution over which you preside. I would appreciate something definite and clear from you on this matter by 9:00 o'clock Wednesday. October 5, 1920. Mr. Chas. A. Starks, 1521 T. 18th St. Kansas City, Mo. My Dear Mr. Starks:— Just having read your statement relate:ve to the Compton affair and since you want to know "personally" of me the facts in the case, it is fair for me to assume that you have an interest in the school, my 800 children at heart as much as the interest of any other institution in the community. Last year, we were ordered by the board of education that in furnishing milk to the children, it should be "A" Grade. The report came to me from my children that Mr. Compton was furnishing "C" Grade. On an investigation I found it true. I made no public declaration of that fact, neither to my school nor to my children. I called his attention to it. He continued to serve it until the close of school. This year when school opened, as usual, he told me he would like to have the trade of my school. I was glad to tell him yes as far as I could without telling my children just with whom they should trade. I was glad to see them trade with a Negro as I have often expressed it publicly and privately. But when school opened, he was not prepared to take care of them as he formerly had been. He admitted to me himself in my office that he had a poor baker, but was doing the best he could. Time after time my pupils and even my teachers spoke especially of the baking, sweets, etc., that the children were buying was not well cooked. Mr. Compton told me all along that just as soon as he could secure a more efficient baker and cook he would do so. This is an admission that he was giving my children inferior goods. Finally a number of children brought some of their purchases and showed it to the teachers, yet I never spoke publicly, because I had always encouraged them to trade with members of their race. But I contend firmly Mr. Starks, that your race with whom you trade owes some consideration even to the children. I never said his place was not clean, but I did say his food was not well cooked nor prepared. He admitted the same by saying as soon as he could find a more efficient cook, he was going to dismiss the other one immediately. Should I not protect my children so far as it is possible in every particular? Should I not see that they should have the best milk and food that their pennies will buy? Their parents expect this of me and of all the teachers. Now, the alleged rumor was not a public statement. But if they desire, the public may have the benefit of this discussion. My children were not forbidden to go there, but they were permitted to buy their milk and their foods wherever they choose. I am very much pleased to make this statement to you and am. Most respectfully yours. THE ANSWER TO THE REPLY. To the Public: Since the public is to be the judge of this affair I respectfully address this statement to it. Let it be the judge as to who has been injured in this matter, and who has suffered injustice at the hands of another. The Comptons are a venerable pair who have served the public with good food for over 30 years in various places in this city. By hard work and excellent cooking these people have made their name stand for better service to those who eat in restaurants. The old liners were truly sorry to see Compton cut out the restaurant a few months ago. This happened when he started a grocery and meat market at the same place, but he retained the bakery department and a few other features especially for school children. "A" Grade and "C" Grade. In order to find out the real facts about the milk proposition I questioned a pupil of the Attucks School. Who Jeff's Cocoanut custard pies, 0c.

Mr. Heman Kinsler has written an interesting book on the trip. gives you the milk at school. Pupil "The teacher." Do you pay for the milk? Pupil: Yes." Who receives the money? Pupil: "The teacher." That is all. We learn from this that milk is sold the children at school. So the professor's lengthy statement about the milk proposition is a good instance of verbiage without producing any appreciable fact. The truth of the matter is that Mr. Compton, knowing that the teachers were handling the milk for the children, has not catered to them for this trade, because he had no desire to be in direct competition with the teachers. The milk sold at school is "A" Grade. So for reasons just named the Comptons handle "C" Grade milk. There is no law, however, to prevent them from selling "A" Grade milk if they choose to do so. But Mr. Harrison would have you believe that his investigation revealed a crime on Mr. Compton's part when it was learned that he was serving "C" Grade milk. Says the Professor: "But when school opened, he (Compton) was not prepared to take care of them (the children) as he formerly had been." This proves only one thing, that Mr. Compton when he started the grocery had decided to cut out his restaurant to the public and serve a less varied and elaborate lunch to the children. As to the children still trading with Mr. Compton under these conditions, it should have been left entirely to their option providing, of course, Mr. Compton met the sanitary laws of the city or state. But Mr. Harrison persistently and specifically denies that he said Mr. Compton's place wasn't clean. However opposed to this astuteness of denal is the guileless testimony of a host of children, who in their innocence have carried the poison news to their homes. This has reverted back to the Comptons through the parents of the children. Did he say it, or did he not? I do not know myself, all I have is the statements of little children, innocent children, whose auditory nerves may not be the most sensitive; whose little minds may have caught the statement erroneously. So I don't know. I only have their word for it. As to "Inferior Goods." The Professor says: "Mr. Compton told me all along that just as soon as he could secure a more efficient baker and cook he would do so. This is an admission that he was giving my children inferior goods." No, my dear professor, this is not an admission of giving inferior goods, but a promise to render more efficient service. Mr. Compton realized that the service may not have been satisfactory at all times and with a desire to please all concerned he assured Mr. Harrison that he would strive to do better. This is what I call a man, a business man, if you please. But the professor says this assurance of better service in the picture is an admission of his having served "inferior goods" in the past. His argument, it is too illogical. Harrison further says: "Finally a number of children brought some of their purchases and showed it to the teachers, yet I never spoke publicly." The fact that the children showed the goods to the teachers does not prove anything but that they showed it to them. "I never spoke publicly." Why should he, he had nothing to tell! Furthermore, food that is not "well cooked" is not necessarily "inferior goods." No, not by a long shot. Inferior means quality. In order to determine the quality of food it is necessary to give it chemical analysis, consider its nutritive power, and test proportionate elements therein as compared with a set standard of what the food should be. Did the teachers do this? Well I guess not. But they said the food was not well cooked. We bake our pastry. Jeff's. SECOND SECTION. OH! IT'S A CRIME, AND IT'S BREAKING MY HEART, WHY DO THEY ALLOW THOSE OUTRAGES? NOW, SEE HERE! YOU'VE GOT TO STOP THAT, WE CAN'T AND WON'T STAND IT ANY LONGER MASSACRE OF JEWS AND ARMENIAN EUROPE THE SOUTH U.S. BROWN Cooking is preparation, or more scientifically, is the assembly of various ingredients. The food may be "well cooked" and yet may not be liked. It's the taste that tells. Any baker is apt to misjudge a product in some particular sometime, and go either below or above the standard. Anything we humans have to do with apt to suffer from our imperfect judgment. Why then "set down" on a poor baker who is human. I would not think of the professor of turning out "inferior" pupils because a few of his children happen to turn out bad. However, it is just as plausible for the principal to turn out good pupils at a hundred per cent clip as it is for the baker to turn our rolls and doughnuts if you are going to take "efficiency" as a basis. Efficiency means producing an effect. But Satisfaction means that a desired effect has been produced. Did Mr. Harrison tell Mr. Compton that his bakery goods was not satisfactory? No, not until the day he made the announcement in school relative to Mr. Compton's place. Mr. Compton informs me that after the professor had made his talk in school he came on down to his place and told him that OH! IT'S A CRIME AND IT'S BREAKING MY HEART WHY THEY ALLOW THE OUTRAGES? NOW, SEE HERE! YOU'VE GOT TO STOP THAT, WE CAN'T AND WON'T STAND IT ANY LONGER MASSACRE OF JEWS AND ARMENIANS EUROPE things were not right. If this is true this is an excellent method of correcting a misadjustment. First, you condemn the culprit without hearing; poison the minds of those who are most concerned, an dhien go and tell the condemned what he is guilty of. This is a new wrinkle in reforms. "But I contend firmly Mr. Starks, that your race with whom you trade owes some consideration even to the children." For defensive more than literary reasons I object to this professor using the phrase "your race" instead of our race. "Your" is more dis- "IN THE STREETS OF A THOUSAND SORROWS."

The people of the community believe in a square deal. They cannot be turned by the ways of evil so long as you keep the truth before them. I thank those who have read this reply. CHARLES A. STARKS.

The School Board of Kansas City has established a unique innovation i n the Training School for Malds at the residence of Mrs. V. J. Williams 1323 Jackson avenue. In an interview with Mrs. Williams as principal our reporter gleaned the following facts: The purpose of the school is not to train our women and girls for maids for white women alone, but to train them to become efficient home makers for themselves as well as others.

The flamingo will be protected by an order of council issued by the government of the Bahamas islands, the National Geographic society and annotes. The birds nest in the marshes of the islands. The action of the island government followed an expedition which trailed the flamingo into the marshes and there took motion pictures of its habitat. It was estimated that since 1301 the number of the birds on the island has been reduced from 20,000 to about 7,000 by the depreciations of sponge fishermen, who killed them for food.

Jeff's. By GENEVIEVE ULMAR "Once get out in the Venturia district, Dale, and you'll never go anywhere else. Once a man gets the cabin fever among those royal hills, he is enchanted for life." "Why do you call it 'cabin fever,' Merton?" inquired Alvin Dale. "Because it applies specifically. There is everything in the section except oil. Once there was a rush on prospects in that line, but it turned out that every strike was a shallow surface well. Inside of a year there wasn't a driller or a derrick left in the district. They did leave cabins, however. Here and there along a trail for a hundred miles in the center of the grandest hunting and fishing district in the world, every few miles you'll find a fair to indifferent cabin, but offering a shelter far superior to a filmsy tent." "Abandoned, I suppose." "Permanently, and you take your pick and house yourself and no questions asked." Lisle Morton was, like Dale, a young man of fortune and leisure and an authority on places and travel. Dale started the next day on his thousand-mile trip. A settlement named Eden Point was his rail connection. Then twenty miles by wagon and as much more by canoe, and he found himself late one afternoon in front of a plain board structure with three rooms. "It's about the choice of the houses," advised his guide, "right on the stream and that's a big advantage, for nearly every day some kind of craft passes up or down stream and they will do any errands you may have at the settlement." "That will be just the thing," commented Dale. "Another thing," continued the guide, "back a bit from the river there are several families living, so you won't be loneless." Date had bought a folding cot, an old stove, some camp stools and a fair array of pots, pans and crockery. It was a pleasing novelty and something of a delight to make amateur housekeeping arrangements. Bedroom, dining room and kitchen swept and furnished, he lit a lamp and sat down to write some letters, feeling quite at home and comfortable. "Saw your light and wondered who my next neighbor could be," spoke a hearty voice, and at the threshold stood a bronzed, bearded man, the typical frontiersman in dress and speech. "You look as if your needs are all nicely provided for," added the visitor as he glanced about him. "We have butter and eggs and always a friendly helping hand when you happen to need it. I'm Aaron Burt; lived here for ten year." "With your family?" said Daly, simply to keep up the conversation. "Only a niece, Ada Revere. She has been here a month and going to stay two more. I hope we get better acquainted." "It will not be my fault, if we don't," said Dale. He was pleased at the thought of neighbors, more so especially as the niece might be a young lady. He found her so, and beautiful, intelligent, refined. It was the next day that he came upon her in the woods with her uncle. An introduction followed and after that almost every other day Dale spent an hour or two at the Burt cabin. He learned that Mr. Burt owned considerable land in the district and was experimenting along the line of promoting a plan to get the oil from shale. His niece was unpretentious, friendly and charming. It was natural and inevitable that these two young souls should discover a mutual attraction. Then there transpired a series of incidents that brought about a definite climax. Mr. Burt came over to Dale's cabin one morning riding one horse and leading another. "I need your help, Dale," he spoke quite excitedly. "Some one broke in to the house while we were passing the night with a neighbor. We suspect two fellows we noticed hanging around yesterday. They are on foot. They have taken about all Ada possessed and we must get after them." They came upon the thieves ten miles away. The latter had seen them coming and had scurried for a belt of dense timber, leaving a suitcase they had been rifling behind them. Burt turtled over its contents. "They haven't taken anything but a trinket or two," he reported. "We won't risk a fight following them further," and Dale, staring hard at an array of clothing fit for a princess, began to realize that Miss Ada Reeves must belong to a family of some consequence. Ada was delighted to recover her property and Dale's co-operation in securing it drew them still closer together. One day Burt met Dale, quite serious looking. "Young man," he spoke, "I've got eyes to notice that you and Ada are headed for a deep dive into love. I don't know how that will suit her folks. They're proud and rich and pretty high up. I should have told you that before." "It was not necessary," replied Dale with a cheery laugh. "I won't boast because I own two banks and come from one of the oldest families in my native city. I think I can qualify up to the standard of Ada's family. It is too late to discuss that, however, for I just kissed your charming niece and placed an engagement ring upon her finger."
