THREATENSTUSKEGEE INSTITUTE The Annual Episcopal Picnic Is Observed VOLUME II, NO. 25 THRE The An MEN'S EPISCOPAL PICNIC HELD AT PARKER'S LAKE St. Phillips and St. Thomas Churches of Twin Cities in Grand Outing. ANNUAL OCCASION IS TRADITIONALLY GOOD Hundreds Enjoy Variety of Entertainment That The Men's Club Offered. The twenty-fourth annual men's Episcopal picnic of St. Phillip's church, St. Paul, and St. Thomas church, Minneapolis, was held at Parkers Lake Thursday, July 12. The annual Episcopal picnic is always awaited with great expectancy because it has for years been the premier outing of the season. This year's picnic was true to traditions when hundreds gathered at Parkers Lake to celebrate the annual occasion. Everyone who did not go to the picnic must have had a lonely time in the city, as seemingly the population of both Minneapolis and St. Paul were there. Nothing Spared. Mr. John LaCoste, St. Paul chairman, and Dr. R. S. Brown, Minneapolis chairman, together with their respective committees, worked zealously in making this picnic a great success. Three trains were necessary to care for those who traveled by rail over the Luce Electric line. The first train, leaving at 9:30 A. M., carried its expected quota. The second train, the picnic special, leaving at 2:30, carried the largest body of the day. The final train at 4:30 brought a large body of the picnickers to Parkers Lake. One would imagine that the three trains carried practically all those on the ground, but after viewing the many automobiles the realization that an equally large crowd motored out is apparent. Variety of Entertainment. After luncheon there was a variety of amusements to suit the various whims of all present. Some preferred to go bathing, others canoeing, a few were among the anglers, but the majority, especially the younger people, responded to the strains of Stevens' Orchestra. The first strains of music announced the beginning of the dance program. The spacious pavilion was soon filled comfortably with the patrons of the smooth floor, one steps, two steps, walzes and schottisches held sway until dinner time. After the last arrivals were dined the music again started. Many found pleasure in the highly diversified occasion and 9:30 found the roads back home prepared for tourist and the train crowded with tired but gay plenickers, each remembering the pleasant outing and wishing the next week would bring another Men's Episcopal Plein. Those of Committee. The following are other members of the St. Paul and Minneapolis committee who worked with John LaCoste and Dr. R. S. Broen in making the picnic a grand success. St. Paul committee: Oliver Taylor, A. P. Rhodes, J. Cunningham, Dr. J. R. French, F. D. McCracken, W. E. Mitchell, Lawrence McCoy, Louis F. Moore, Wm. Petit, Wm. Elliott, M. K.

THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN St. Louis Deals Segregation Blow (By the Associated Negro Press) St. Louis, Mo., July 13.—The attempt to segregate colored picnics in the parks of this city has failed, the city authorities having abandoned the scheme of the number of protests made and the evident estranging effect it was having on colored confidence which has swallowed many a bitter pill under the present administration. There is no concealing the fact colored people are no longer committed to any blind allegiance which continues to cut down their rights as citizens. This fact has been brought out to some degree in the past and there are indications of a steady growth in this respect. The awakening here is only a part of that which is affecting him nationally, and which in the end will create respect for him because respect is always had for the man who strikes back. Segregation is wrong from any point of view and the Negro will not mildly accept it. Shuffle Along Closes Season (By the Associated Negro Press) New York, July 13.—Wilfred R. Bain of the staff of the Atlantic City, N. J., Dally Times-Gazette and special correspondent for many out-of-the-city papers, reports that the original "Shuffle Along" company closed its phenomenal three years' continuous season at the Apollo theater in that city on June 23. Dissatisfaction between the four principals has been growing for some time. A number of causes had been assigned, but Sissle and Blake in an interview with Mr. Bain, stated that it grew out of Miller and Lyles' desire to participate in the royalties on the song numbers made famous by the show. It is reported that the latter have been engaged for a George White production. So strained were the relations between the people that when "Auld Lang Syne" was sung at the final curtain some members of the company walked off the stage. Sissle and Blake have opened a "Plantation Days" Revue at the La Marne cafe on the Boardwalk in conjunction with Smith and his band. The opening performance took five encores. Mildred Smallwood, Johnnie Hudgins and a number of the former "Shuffle" people are in the cast. Among those are Lottie Gee, Bob Davis and the Four Harmony Kings. Mr. Sissle's grandmother was a guest at the opening. WITHIN OUR GATES During the week of July 15th St. Paul will have as its guests a notable gathering comprising of delegates from Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Wisconsin and Minnesota attending the annual Western Baptist convention. We must do ourselves proud in making them welcome so that this convention (Continued on Page 4) M. OWEN HOWELL Address on Behalf of Business. ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JULY, 14, 1923 WEST BAPTISTS TO MEET HERE AT PILGRIM CHURCH Prominent Men and Women From All Parts of Country to Meet Here July 17-22. The twentieth annual session of the Western Baptist convention and the Woman's Missionary and Educational convention, scheduled to convene at Pilgrim Baptist church July 17-22, will bring some of the best known Baptists of America to St. Paul. The woman's convention, which convenes from Tuesday morning, July 17, to MAYOR A. E. NELSON Address on Behalf of the City. Wednesday night, will be of much interest because of the many prominent women who will give addresses, among whom is Mrs. Francis B. Watson of Monrovia, Liberia, who will speak on "World-wide Missions" Wednesday evening. Concerning Mrs. Watson, S. Quay Herndon, assistant managing editor of the Bulletin, said "St. Paul will find a rare treat in the person of Mrs. Francis B. Watson. I had the privilege of being one of her students in Bible training at Western college. She is one of America's foremost race women in missionary circles and possesses unusual ability along many other lines." Many Other Noted Women. Many Other Noted Women.

Great plans are being made by Pilgrim Baptist church, of which Rev. L. W. Harris is pastor, to make this convention one of the greatest and most successful in the history of the Western Baptist convention. Mrs. Rebbecca Corpue from Canada, en route to Chicago, stopped over a few days in Minneapolis. Mrs. Mary Johnson, 614 Hoag avenue north, left July 1 for her home in South Carolina for an indebted stay. Welcome In welcoming the many delegates of the Western Baptist Convention, convening here July 17-22, we feel that no greater group of our people have been assembled in our city. The true Christian spirit of the Baptist faith is reflected in the activities of these various ministers, missionaries and delegates. The spirit of progress is demonstrated by their desire to do greater work and create newer ambition for service. The door of the Bulletin office is open to our visiting friends. We extend an invitation to them individually and severally to visit our office during their sojourn in St. Paul. The key to our city we give to you and may this convention establish a precedent in the history of the Western Baptists for doing great things. In the selection of St. Paul for your convention we desire to lend our efforts with those of Pilgrim Baptist Church in making your visit here a long-remembered one. To help cause you to feel the cosmopolitan spirit existing in our metropolis, we offer our services in any capacity that makes for your comfort. We again extend our heartiest and sincere welcome, and may your visit with us be made one of ultra beneficence. STEEL MAGNATE GIVES O. K. TO RAY MARRIAGE STEEL MAGNATE GIVES O. K. TO RAY MARRIAGE Well Known Chicago Lady Well Received in Home of Mr. and Mrs. Schwab. (By the Associated Negro Press) Chicago, Ill., July 13.—An O. K. from Charles M. Schwab, the great steel master, is not to be frowned upon. In this instance it is unique, and one that will attract considerable attention. The Schwab O. K. has been put on the coming marriage of Joseph Ray of Bethlehem, Pa., to Mrs. Lena Douglass Holt of Chicago, who is expected to become Mrs. Ray, July 29. in this city. Ray, for more than a score of years, has been a trusted employee of Charles M. Schwab and the chief officers of the great Bethlehem Steel Corporation. He has direct charge of the arrangements for the extensive travels of Mr. Schwab and other officials, and is one of the confidential men of the official organization. Whether in Bethlehem or New York City, or other offices of the company, "Joc Ray is esteemed and given the open door passage. When it became known some time ago that he again intended to ascend Hymen's alter, naturally Mr. Schwab and other officials became interested—nay more, they were concerned. They wished to know personally the fair lady whom Ray had picked out A. MRS. W. T. FRANCIS Will Present The Page of Mission A. MRS. EMMA BUSH Prominent Speaker at Baptist Convention. of the "Garden of Romance" to walk with him henceforth along life's pathway. Consequently, during a recent visit East, accompanied by some friends, arrangements were made for Mrs. Holt to be introduced to Mrs. and Mrs. Schwab in their New York City home. The distinguished Americans were greatly impressed with Mrs. Holt, who is noted for her delightful personality and unusual musical attainments, and without hesitation, the Schwab O. K. was given To make the "censorship" complete Mrs. Holt and friends continued on to Bethlehem, where the general offices of the company are located, and which is to be her future home, and there she met all the other officials who added their O. K. to the matrimonial match. Because of Mrs. Holt's activity in musical circles, she will be greatly missed in Chicago. She is the widow of the late George Holt, who left her a very neat fortune, and it is known that Joseph Ray is in a position not to worry about the approach of the wolf at the door. Following the marriage they will sail from New York City on August 4 for Paris and many other facinating places in Europe calculated to make a honeymoon as charming as the magazine stories. We are very pleased to announce to our readers that Dr. J. Walton Crump, 305 Court Block, who recently established offices in St. Paul, will give a series of Health Talks to appear shortly in the Bulletin. Dr. Crump came to St. Paul from Pittsburgh, Texas, where he for several years was the most prominent physician and surgeon. He is thoroughly versed along all lines pertaining to medicine proper and surgery. The fact that so eminent a practitioner will contribute weekly articles to the Bulletin is one of much interest. We know of no other physician in the Twin Cities who would be more capable to give these "Health Talks" than Dr. Crump. Mrs. H. L. Vinigar entertained a number of guests the Fourth of July in honor of her birthday. Announcement Work of Great Artists Shown (By the Associated Negro Press) Indianapolis, Ind., July 13—An exhibition of European oil paintings by William E. Scott of Chicago, formerly of Indianapolis, because of its popularity, will continue in the local art gallery here several days. Much of the artist's training was received at the Julian' Academy, Paris, France, and with H. O. Tanner in France. His work shows a distinct individuality in color and composition. In this exhibit particularly, picturesqueness of scene and interest of color are predominant characteristics. The largest and most striking painting is "Facade Public Square in Rheims." Other subjects are "The Merry-go-round in Garden of the Tuilleries," "Brittany Smith," "Bologne Harbor," "Beach at Dieppe," "At Barritz," "Canal at Ghent" and "Bruges" and "The Quilt Maker." MILL CITY LODGE I.B.P.O.E.W.IS AMONG LEADERS MILL CITY LODGE I.B.P.O.E.W.IS AMONG LEADERS Minneapolis Elks Recognized as One of Foremost Orders of the Northwest. Ames Lodge No. 106, I. B. P. O. E. W., was founded in 1906 by a group of highly progressive men, some of whom are yet numbered among the antlered fold. From its inception, Ames lodge has had a steady growth, until the peak of its membership was reached a few years ago when the membership numbered approximately five hundred. This membership was reached during the period of depression which swept over the nation, resulting in many of our people being unemployed. The financial membership later numbered about three hundred members. But under the capable and efficient administration and with the gradual return of normalcy, great strides are being made to bridge the gap in membership. Good Time Idea Wrong. Elkdom has been branded by some as an order for the good time fellows. Demonstrative methods have fully proven the fallacy of such conceptions. Consistency in proving its worth and in exemplifying the great principles on which Elkdom is founded, Ames lodge has won much praise and is held as one of the foremost lodges of this community. The order can truly boast, without egotism, of having among its members some of the most prominent men of our business, professional and social world. It has, through the fine type of men who constitute the membership, inculcated into its ranks a large number of the younger and progressive men of the Mill City. When one views the beautiful home at Hyland and Lyndale avenue north, the property of Ames Lodge No. 106, I. B. P. O. E. W., the thought of the most progressive lodge of the Northwest is ever present. Contributes to Needy. No Negro fraternal organization in the Northwest can be rated as highly as Ames Lodge No. 106 in matters of philanthropy. In the year of 1922 they gave to the needy and persons in financial distress several hundred dollars besides looking after its own members with their regular sick and death benefits. One of the most commendable acts, and it is a feature of Elkdom, is the annual Xmas exercises for the children. Again the superior "big brother" idea is prevalent by not restricting the guests to children of Elks only. All children, regardless, are equal on this great event to share in the merilment provided by the hosts. Last Xmas several hundred Minneapolis kiddies were honorary guests of Ames lodge.

N. A. A. C. P. ASK TROOPS TO SUPPRESS ATTACK Race People of Country Resent Disrespect Given Nurses on Application. (By the Associated Negro Press) Montgomery, Ala., July 13. Which is the more powerful, the Ku Klux of Alabama or the United States government? This question has come to a tragic crisis and must be answered in a mighty short time. What the answer will be remains to be seen. The Klux have carried their policy of resentment against the U. S. government policy to the very threshold of the U. S. Veterans' hospital at Tuskegee Institute. They have paraded about the institution, including the school, in their night gowns and night caps, and they have openly threatened to burn Tuskegee Institute to the ground in the event of a colored personnel being established at the $2,000,000 government hospital for veterans of the World War. This, American citizens of all races, is the answer of the highhanded politicians and Klux of Alabama to the announcement of Director Hines of the Veterans' Bureau, in a letter to Warren G. Harding, President of the United States, commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the republic, by right invested through the Constitution. Tuskegee Trembles. Tuskegee Institute trembles, as never in its history, for what the future may hold; but the trembling is not that of fear so much as it is that of fortitude. In this bravery there is not anger, but grim determination, with the spirit of Booker T. Washington hovering above them, to protect the institution itself, their homes and their families, as well as such students and others entrusted to their keeping, against the marauders of justice and fair play. Little was it dreamed when Tuskegee Institute officials gave of their good land for the erection of a hospital for the preservation of life under Christian principles and government backing, that it would ultimately lead to such a state of affairs as now exists. Commander Steiner of the Alabama American Legion, of boastful prejudice and Ku Klux sympathy, is said to be one of the chief antagonists of the government program for the Veterans' hospital. He is aided by the governor of Alabama, and recently by the notorious Senator Heflin of the same state, and of anti-Negro demagogery, who boasts of having shot a colored man in the streets of Washington more than twenty years ago. Senator Underwood, who aspires to be President of the United States, has just returned from a four months' trip abroad, and as yet, has not publicly expressed himself on the hospital difficulty. Attitude Against Southern Policy. The whole attitude of the little group of Southern white politicians against permitting a colored personnel to be established at the Veterans' hospital, is entirely against the well known and long established policy of white Southerners on the subject of segregation. Northern observers cannot understand this strange break-out of Southern psychology. The Associated Negro Press knows of a certainty that scores of leading white people of Alabama are bitterly opposed to the determined efforts of this small group of whites to keep out colored doctors and management in the hospital. These people have Entered as second-class matter February 20, 1922, at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under the Act of March 3, 1879.

But cognizance must be taken to the fact that the Northwestern Bulletin is the foremost in news service, whether local or national, of all race papers in the state.

Notwithstanding the promise to place a race staff in charge, the crafty Southern staff of the Veterans' Bureau have so manipulated their reports to appear that a sufficient corp of race physicians and nurses cannot be found to efficiently man the hospital. The first thing done was to make things so unpleasant for Colonel Forbes that he made a trip to Europe. The next step was to place one Colonel George A. Ijams, a pure Southern Democrat from North Carolina, in charge. Ordinary intelligence would soon understand the meaning of such maneuvers. It was to gradually place so many crackers on the Veterans' Bureau that they could control the Tuskegee situation. Perhaps one of the most crafty acts is in the recent one when Colonel Ijams began to shift many physicians from one hospital to another. The real reason for the shift lay in the fact, by changing them from one hospital it would become more easy to eventually send them to Tuskegee without creating suspicion. The true situation, as confronting the authorities pertaining to the Veterans' hospital, proves conclusively that the South will resort to every known method of intrigue to further its aim. That when lucrative positions are in view the Negro will be prevented from having them if the Southerner's efforts materialize properly. In preventing the hospital from being manned by a race staff, the Ku Klux Klan even voiced their protest, silently, by marching through the streets of Tuskegee. There is one way to give the Veterans' hospital a race personnel and that is through the voice of President Harding. He is away on a vacation at present and we wonder if he were in Washington would he have the nerve to do it. In this upheaval we wish for "Teddy" with his big stick. He was the one man whose decisions the cracker South respected, whether they liked it or not. Possibly Harding will do as he promised, in placing race people in charge, but he will have to make a decidedly different impression than the one made in his famous address. One thing we can thoroughly understand is this: A position of authority with a substantial renumeration will change black to white and white to black so far as the Colonel Ijam's followers are concerned.

Co. ```markdown ``` READ THIS The Rondo Meat Market, 614 Rondo street, and Trost Grocery, 614 Rondo street, both of whom enjoy a lucrative patronage of our people in that vicinity and have for years refused to give a card of welcome to the delegates of the Western Baptist convention, who convene at Pilgrim Baptist church July 17 and 22. It is customary when any convention convenes in a city for the various advertising buyers to place a card of welcome in their behalf. The above mentioned firms do not consider their race patronage enough to express their appreciation by welcoming our delegates to the city. We feel that our readers should know the facts concerning the Rondo Meat Market and the Trost Grocery store when, after garnering many of our dollars, refuse to voice a welcome to our prominent visitors. It is an act of utmost discourtesy. We must spend our money in an appreciative market and favor such firms that respect their customers and visiting friends. I ran into a prominent race man of St. Paul one day last week who was "singing the blues" because he had just paid out a hundred dollars for legal services. I asked him who was the lucky lawyer and named a prominent St. Paul attorney, asking was he the lucky man? He looked at me in amazement and said: Do you think I'm crazy? Any time I have to pay that kind of money, I go to a lawyer. I offered him my sympathy and passed on, but I could not help but think, did he realize how fully he had expressed the sentiments of a great many of our people in regards to the services of our professional men. We send our young men to schools and universities, encourage them to prepare themselves for a profession and then, when they have graduated, often after the most adverse struggles, during which time they have made all sorts of sacrifices and then they come to us, fully equipped to practice their chosen profession, we steadfastly refuse to patronize them, simply because we haven't confidence in our own people. Inconsistent isn't it, that we, a people who are discriminated against more than any other race in the world, practice it most ruthlessly ourselves, against our own race. In the legal profession we have Wm. R. Morris, W. T. Francis, J. Louis Ervin, Brown S. Smith, Gleasner Fowler, Hammond Turner and Geo. H. Jackson. No group of attorneys in this state are treated with more courtesy and respect by the entire bench and bar than are these members of our race. To make the assertion that any Negro in Minnesota has a business of such magnitude or legal affairs that are beyond the knowledge of any is as ridiculous as it is untrue. In medicine we have Dr. Turner, Dr. Redd and Dr. Browns, senior and junior. The long years of successful practice of these men is sufficient proof of their fitness and ability. In dentistry we have Drs. Burton, French, Hill, Weber, Wright and Judy, all of whom have made good. In the real estate and rental business we have Fred D. McCracken, B. Maxey, McDrew, the Schuck Bros. and Joseph Young. Our people are buying quite a lot of property and renting a good deal more. In all probability most of these deals could have been handled by some of these men in a proper and efficient manner had they been given the opportunity. There are numerous other businesses that are operated by members of the race in a capable manner that are deserving of and should have our united support. There may be others than those whom I have mentioned, but I have named those whom I know personally and for whose ability and efficiency I need offer no apology. I'm not one of those rabid race promoters who is always willing to assert that any Negro either in a profession or in a business ought to have all the Negro patronage simply because he's a Negro. But I do contend that where the Negro professional man measures up in ability and the business man gives the same service and value for the money as his white competitor, then we as Negroes should if anything go a little out of the way to throw our patronage to the men of our own race. I doubt if there is a community anywhere that can present a higher type of Negro professional and business men than can be found in the Twin Cities. Another thing to be considered is this: Most of the white professional people whom we run to don't want our trade anyhow. I have known instances where white physicians have told members of the race, "why you have good doctors of your own, why don't you go to them." Let's wake up and have a little more race loyalty. Let's keep some of the thousands of dollars we are yearly spending among the white folks in the coffers of our own people and then when we want subscriptions and donations to promote worthy things for the betterment and good of the race, some of us will have something to give except advice. There is probably no place in the country where conditions are more favorable than right here to practice NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN 9 THIS Rondo street, and Trost Grocery, enjoy a lucrative patronage of our for years refused to give a card the Western Baptist convention, church July 17 and 22.

We must live market and favor such firms visiting friends. this race unity and co-operation. Here we enjoy civic privileges and constitutional rights to a marked degree, and we could create a racial "stick-together feeling" that we would be proud of and that would be emulated all over the country. All we have to do is to believe. Believe that God still reigns, that there are hundreds of Negro men and women in the Twin Cities with Christian hearts and intelligent minds who think right and live cleanly, who love their neighbors and serve God. Let us begin to believe that every public spirited citizen who attempts to promote something for the welfare of the race and the good of the community is not a grafter, seeking only his own personal gain. We may be fooled occasionally, but honesty and truth are the foundation stones to material success and no man who does not possess these cardinal virtues and a fair amount of moral character will get very far in the public estimation. Let's believe that somebody else is right, does right and thinks besides our individual selves. Let our ministers preach this race unity from their pulpits. Let's discuss it in our lodges and our other clubs and civic organizations. Let the women (God bless 'em) talk it in their strong federation and the many other wonderful organizations that they are carrying on in such a splendid manner. Let every body join in the effort to make this particular locality stand out as one place where Negroes stand for each other, fight for each other and if necessary will die for each other.

JACKSON, Prop. 989 Iglehart Avenue ENJOY THE "Billie" Was Just a Nickname By LILY WANDEL Jack Seabury looked at Billie Dorn in knickers cleaning her golf clubs energetically, with stern disapproval. He vigorously disliked the athletic type of girl and Billie was all of that, surely. Sometimes he thought she must be made of steel, the way she slung her tennis racquet and cracked her golf balls across the course. He honestly could not remember ever having heard her say she was tired, or chilly or afraid; you could not protect or take care of a girl like Billie, she stood too firmly on her own feet. She was not the girl he dreamed about, a lovely feminine type of sweet delicate beauty and certainly not named Billie! He rather fancied the name of Alice, it was so distinctly feminine and made him think a little of that old song, "Alice, Ben Bolt." Of course, Billie was a good little thing in her way, mighty convenient to ask to a dance in the eleventh hour when somebody else turned him down, or to call up on a misty day for a round of golf when no other girl would dream of going out. But the girl he would marry, this Alice, would not be sitting on a tree stump where snakes were liable to be, in knickers with her arms burnt a nut brown! He fancied Alice would be in some fuzzy dress safely on the clubhouse porch, knitting or something. "Say, Billie!" He savagely swished off some leaves with his brassie, "I'm in love!" If he had looked up he might have seen a deep red dye Billie's cheeks and throat, a jubilant shine come into her velvet blue eyes. "With whom, Jack?" she asked carelessly, but the brown fingers scubbing the putter were not quite steady. "With a wonderful girl, Billie, a girl of my dreams. I can see her now, blue eyes (he really did not know Billie's were blue, for they were such a dark blue, but Billie sitting there on the tree stump held her breath; what she had hoped and longed for was coming true!) that are gentle and soft," continued Jack looking dreamily across the "fair"; "hair that is fuzzy and glinty and a skin—the kind that you love to touch!" Billie dropped the putter, clasped her brown hands tight together. This was the way he described her, the picture he carried in his heart, and all these days she had worried and doubted that he cared for her! Oh, the happiness of this hour! "And," continued Jack totally unconscious of the dagger he was about to fling, "she doesn't play golf, nor tennis, nor ride! And she's afraid of snakes and once in a while she gets tired! She likes fancywork and to have men wait on her—in other words, a real woman!" Billie picked up the putter and began to rub and scrape, and then with all the braveness of a hero started to whistle a popular air. "What's her name, Jack?" she asked in a teasing voice, her heart like lead. "I think it's Alice," he answered softly. "Funny thing is I've never met her nor seen her—but I want to—if I only could!" "Don't despair. Sooner or later you will; there are plenty of these Alices, you know. Jack, I believe if we want a thing bad enough we get it. You've just got to believe you'll get it. Understand?" Jack looked up with a faint smile. "Some new fad, eh? Well, how do you go about it? I'm game." "Just affirm Alice. Every time you think of this Alice pictured in your mind say very positively, 'Alice is. I Jack Seabury, affirm Alice, the woman I love. Day by day, hour by hour, she is coming nearer to me." A few days later he met Billie coming from the tennis courts. The girl had been playing a strenuous game. "Billie, it has not worked yet. I've been affirming Alice like mad." He looked down into Billie's flushed face. "Aren't you overdoing it on this hot day?" He noticed the deep rings under the girl's eyes, but Billie with a shrug and laugh ran on. It was a week later when Jack noticed a new girl at the club. A girl with pale gold hair, a white, transparent skin and baby-blue eyes. She was knitting a yellow sweater that lay like a patch of sunlight on her white frock of soft silk. Jack lost no time in obtaining an introduction to Miss Willard. Almost immediately he asked her wether she played golf. She shook her pretty head. "I'm afraid I'm not very athletic. I've never been very strong." Jack felt like giving vent to a great shout of joy. "But you ride? Or drive your own car?" he waited anxiously for a negative answer. She held up the half-finished sweater. "I knit a great deal and, oh, would you mind getting my scarf? It's in the clubhouse. The breeze makes me chilly and it gives one a headache so easily." Jack strode off with a smile of victory. He had found her, his girl of wonder-dreams! When he returned with the scarf he suggested a walk, but Miss Williard said she was tired. Wouldn't he sit down? And Jack settled down happily. He watched her thin white fingers ply the needles bumly. She was like a delicate flower, a tender illy, to be cared for, protected all her life. "What is your first name?" he asked quite suddenly. She looked up and smiled. "Alice." "I thought so," he answered gravely. "I knew it must be Alice." It annoyed him exceedingly an hour later when he rushed to the coatroom, his head full of plans of ordering orchids and roses, to have his best friend, Phil Raker, stop him. "I want to say good-by to you, Jack. I'm leaving for the West." Jack wasn't a bit interested, but his friend's face looked so grief-striken he was forced to stop and ask why the hurried trip. "You wouldn't understand, Jack. You're a bachelor and I've been married seven long years! No one knows what I've been through married to Emily, living with that pampered girl!" "Why, Emily was always the sweetest little thing, so frail." Phil shuddered. "Have you ever lived with anybody who is always getting a headache? The slightest unpleasantness sends her into hysteria? A woman who punishes her husband for every little thing by having a sick spell? Who takes the joy out of everything by being tired, or too weak? Have your vacations been just toting shawls and pillows and finding comfortable seats for somebody who is too lazy and indulgent to exercise and get up a little strength? Have you ever been forced to stick in the house for weeks and when you suggested playing a round of golf have a woman burst into tears?" It was a very thoughtful, enlightened Jack Seabury who dressed for the country club dance that evening. He found her almost immediately, a woman who suggested strength and glowing health, in her dress of shimmering green, beautiful against the soft tanned skin. He hurried her out of the clubhouse for a walk over the knoll to the ninth hole, and there in the darkness, without a word of explanation, he drew her close and kissed her warm little mouth. "I've always loved you, though I did not know it," he said softly, tenderly. "You've been my little pal, always there, always ready for anything. I don't want any wishy-washy delicate girl for my wife, but a real woman like you, Billie." And as they walked back to the clubhouse, Billie said happily: "It worked after all, affirming Alice. Billie's just a nickname; I was christened Alice, you know." PUT ONE OVER ON DINGLEY Kansas Representative Marked Up Distinctive "Score" on Famous Statesman From Maine. The famous Jerry Simpson, Populist representative in congress from Kansas, took delight in turning the laugh upon Representative Dingley, especially on something related to the tariff. One day the Kansan walked down the alley on the Republican side of the house, peered into Dingley's silk hat, which was reposing on his desk as a sign that no business of importance was expected to come up, and went to his seat. A little later he obtained the floor. He spoke of Dingley's views on protection. "But," he went on, "the gentleman from Maine does not practice what he preaches. There's that hat, which has become a barometer in the house. That hat was made by the pauper labor of Europe. It bears the firm name of a London concern. I was amazed when I accidentally saw that English trademark. The makers of that hat claim to be purveyors of hats to royalty." Dingley's explanation that he had not inquired the make of the hat but had merely taken one that fitted him, only added to the hilarity of the occasion. Mutual Happiness. The young man had come on his sweetheart's advice to "ask father." He had not met with much success. "Do I understand," said the young man firmly, "that you absolutely decline to let me marry your daughter?" "I do!" replied the stern parent firmly. "Str," said the young man, reaching for his hat, "will you shake hands on parting?" "Of course," said the father, surprised into generosity. "And I am glad to see that you take it so well." "Yes," said the young man, "and I am going to send you a box of clogs, too. You don't know how near that daughter of yours came to having me hooked." Odd Days In Lent "Everything's changed nowadays," remarked Jones at lunch, "due, I suppose, to the wave of modernism sweeping the country. It makes one wonder continually what'll happen next. "It's had its effect on religion as well. Why, this year, even Lent isn't normal." "What? Lent isn't normal? What do you mean?" inquired one. "I should say it isn't. Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, was Valentine day. Sending comic valentines to your friends surely is no religious way to usher in Lent, is it? Easter, which marks the end of Lent, is April Fool's day. The way people have been acting of late seems to have had an effect on the calendar."—New York Sun. Proved His Point: At the club Brown made the startling assertion that in being shown the head side of any coin he could tell the date. "Well, sir," said Green, sliding a penny, "the date?" "Certainly," said Brown, "the 12th of February. There is the calendar." What the others said is beside the point. SUPPLEMENT TO THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN EXCELLENT VINEGAR FROM RASPBERRIES EXCELLENT VINEGAR FROM RASPBERRIES If Properly Preserved It Will Retain Flavor Indefinitely. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) An excellent vinegar may be made from raspberries which will retain indefinitely the odor and flavor if properly preserved. Experiments carried out in the bureau of chemistry of the United States Department of Agriculture, have shown that this delicious vinegar can be made in the home when the garden affords a liberal supply of this fruit. Vinegar made from raspberries is dark in color. Samples made in the bureau of chemistry and properly bottled were found after three years to have retained not only the original degree of acidity but the odor and flavor. In salads and other table delicacies the raspberry flavor is very agreeable. A refreshing hot-weather drink can be prepared by adding a small amount of this vinegar to water, and icing and sweetening to taste. Two fermentations, the alcoholic and the acetic, are necessary in making vinegar. The method is as follows: Use ordinary straight-sided open topped stone jars as receptacles. With the aid of a potato masher, mash up eight quarts of good, ripe raspberries of either red or black variety. Stir thoroughly into this mash one-half cake of compressed yeast which has first been macerated in a small amount of the juice. Let jar stand in a warm place (about 75 degrees F.) and keep covered either with lid or with cheese-cloth to protect from insects. Stir well every day. About one week is required to complete the alcoholic fermentation. The time needed to utilize the sugar in the berries completely may be determined by one of two methods: (1) Weigh the jar carefully each day and record the weight; when loss of weight ceases, the fermentation is complete; (2) test some of the juice daily with a Brix or Balling hydrometer. The reading of a juice suitable for making a satisfactory vinegar should not be less than 10. As the fermentation proceeds, this will decrease daily until it is not more than 1 or 2, which indicates that the sugar has practically all been utilised. The action of the yeasts on the cells makes it easy to separate the juice from the berries, squeezing it by hand through cheesecloth. The juice is then returned to the jar; and, to insure a proper acetic fermentation, a small amount of vinegar should be added as a starter. An unpasteurized vinegar is best for this purpose, but if this is not at hand, use any good vinegar in the proportion of 1 part to 4 of the fermented juice. Cover as before and allow to stand without agitation in a warm place. A scum or film will soon form. This should not be disturbed. The acetic fermentation sometimes takes place very rapidly where berries are used. The acidity should be determined daily by withdrawing a small amount of the vinegar by means of suction through a pipette or glass tube and submitting it to a test by the use of a vinegar tester, or in the absence of this, determining by the taste when it is sufficiently acid. As soon as the vinegar reaches a proper degree of acidity (it should contain 4 per cent acetic acid), the fermenting-process should be stopped. This is done by first filtering through paper or filtering-cloth, and bottling. Bottles should be well filled and sealed tightly with paraffined corks. PRUNE RELISH FOR MUTTON Recipe Given Is Recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture. Fruit relishes, especially those which are spiced or slightly tart, are excellent with roast mutton or lamb, and also very palatable when the cold sliced meat is served. Equal parts of raisins and prunes may be used in the recipe below if preferred. The recipe is recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture. 1 cupful prunes cut in small pieces, 1½ cupful water. Boll together prunes, water, sugar, salt, and spice until the prunes are soft, then add jelly and lemon while still hot, and let stand until cold. PEANUT BUTTER FOR SOUPS Recipe Given by Department of Agriculture is Especially Popular With Children. Peanut butter may be used in soups to give flavor and richness. The following recipe for tomato and peanut-butter soup, furnished by the United States Department of Agriculture, is said to be especially popular with children: 1 teaspoonful paprika. 2½ cupfuls boiling water. Add the tomato juice gradually to the peanut butter and when smooth add the seasonings and water. Simmer for ten minutes and serve with crountons. Another appetizing soup may be made by adding peanut butter to well-seasoned soup stock or to milk thickened to creamy consistency. A few drops of lemon juice added to these peanut soups just before they are served, improves the flavor.

GOINS Daddy's Evening Fairy Tale BY MARY GRAHAM BONNER FAIRY QUEEN'S TRIP The Fairy Queen thought she would take a trip to a zoo as she said she wanted to see some of the members of the Crane family and birds of all kinds. "I'm very shy," said the Sand-Hill Crane. "I do not care to talk to many but as you are a fairy you will not frighten me and you will not frighten the White Crane who is just as shy as I am." "Indeed I won't frighten you," said the Fairy Queen. "I just wanted to wave my wand of greeting as I went by." "So nice of you, so nice of you," said the Sand-Hill Crane. "Of course," the Sand-Hill Crane continued, "we are always being mixed up with herons. Anyone ought to be able to tell us apart when we're flying and then it is that we are so often mistaken, I believe." "Perhaps," the Fairy Queen said, "others do not know how different you "Indeed I Won't Frighten You." are and if they don't know it is rather hard for them not to mistake you." "If I weren't so shy," said the Sand-Hill Crane, "I would tell them that flying cranes can be recognized because we fly with our great long necks sticking out in front of us and the herons hold their necks back. Then we are also mistaken for the geese. It is true that we are like some members of the Goose family in our ways. We, too, like cornflies but when we fly we fly differently from the geese. And it is even then that we are mistaken. Only in this case the secret is to be told by our legs and not by our necks. We fly with our legs behind us. I don't mean we leave our legs behind us in another place." "Oh, I quite understand that you don't do that," said the Fairy Queen. "Well, I thank you for talking to me and I will tell as many as I can of these things you've told me." "Fairy Wondrous Secrets takes many messages about me for and so does the Dreamland King, and there are others. Yes, we have messengers, we fairies!" Then the Fairy Queen went to see some bird cousins of the Cranes known by the wonderful names of Carlams and Chunga. And she saw the Keka bird from New Zealand who could not fly but who was a great climber. She saw the Australian Wonga-Wonga with his white forehead and his fat body. And she saw Crested Touraco of the great Parrot family, who did his favorite trick for her amusement. This trick was to stand with his three toes pointed straight out ahead of him. Then he moved so as his other toe was turned back and looked as though it had disappeared. The Fairy Queen loved that trick and enjoyed seeing it again and again. One of the Parakeets was looking after some little ones in a small nest in a box in her cage. The Giant Kingfisher or Laughing Jackass laughed for her amusement too. "I'm from Australia," he said, "though I have a cousin in these parts known as the American Kingfisher, but I'm larger than he is." And then he laughed and laughed and laughed. "Nothing like laughing at your own jokes," chuckled the Fairy Queen. "I laugh at them," he said, "because often I have no others to laugh at and I find mine do as well as any, ha, ha, ha!"

(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture) The woman in the photograph does not have many conveniences, apparently, but she has learned to make light work of cleaning by having a tall, narrow closet in a handy place in which to store her long-handled brushes, brooms and mops. She has also what is popularly known as a "scrubbing charlot," which can be used either as this housewife is using it, to roll her pail easily about, or, if there are corners which must actually be scrubbed, to kneel on as she works. This "charlot" can be easily constructed at home by an amateur carpenter. A woman mopping the floor. "Scrubbing Charlet" in Operation. Directions for making it have been given to members of home demonstration clubs, by extension workers employed co-operatively by the United States Department of Agriculture and the state agricultural colleges. Brooms, mops and brushes should either be hung in the closet by strings ```markdown ``` Tail, Narrow Closet for Meps and Brooms. or screw-eyes fastened to the handles, so that the weight does not rest on the straws, strings or bristles, or they should be set upide down on their handles. A small shelf or two for cleansing agents such as scouring powder, ammonia, lye, etc., is a convenience. The picture shows a homemade closet with shelves, placed on the back porch. Mere and Better Work Can Be Done in Room Arranged for Comfort and Convenience. The kitchen is the workshop in most farm homes. In it the housekeeper and her helpers prepare the food for the family, and from it as a center carry on most of the other housework. More and better work can be done in a well-lighted shop arranged for the comfort and convenience of the workers and equipped with good tools than in a dark shop where much time must be spent in unnecessary steps and energy wanted with scattered equipment. Business men have found this a sound principle, and it should be applied to the farm kitchen so that the housekeeper can do her work more quickly and with the least fatigue. Household Questions A good vinegar will awaken the flavors of vegetables and salad. SUPPLEMENT TO THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN The image shows a dimly lit interior with a large wooden table in the center, surrounded by several people seated at the table. The room appears to be a warehouse or a storage area, with high ceilings and large windows. The lighting is low, creating a somewhat eerie atmosphere. How Much Do You KNOW 12. Did Samuel Coleridge-Taylor ever visit America? Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was the guest of the Coleridge-Taylor Choral Union of Washington, D. C., during the great Coleridge-Taylor festival. This illustrious musician conducted two concerts in Washington and one in Baltimore. During his visit to Baltimore, he was called upon to conduct the famous United States Marine band, being the only one of his race to have ever been so honored. After visiting Boston and conducting his famous "Hiawatha" and "Songs of Slavery," he returned to England in December and became the conductor of "The Handel Choral Society," the greatest organization of its kind in the world. 13. What became of the Pyramid of Cheops? The Pyramid of Cheops, at Gizeh, in Egypt, although erected 60 centuries ago, is still in a good state of preservation, and an object of profound wonder to successive generations of visitors. Cheops, who was the first king of the fourth Egyptian dynasty, desiring a fine tomb, employed 300,000 men to erect this pyramid, which stands 418 feet high and covers 13 acres of ground, the stone blocks used in its construction weighing $2\frac{1}{2}$ tons each. 14. What reward was Robert Smalls given for his exploit? Leaning out of the window, with arms folded, and head covered with a huge straw hat, Smalls passed Ft. Stummer and Morris Island, aboard the "Planter," and as he approached the Federal fleet, discerning that they were preparing to give battle, he raised the white flag. The surprised Captain Nicolls of the U. S. S. Onward met and boarded the "Planter," and after interviewing Smalls, sent him and his ship to Rear Admiral Dupont at Port Royal. Admiral Dupont rewarded Smalls by creating him a pilot, and placed him second command of the U. S. S. Crusader. 15. What is the fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the U. S. A.? The fifteenth amendment to the Constitution of the U. S. A. submitted in February, 1869, and proclaimed March, 1870, reads as follows: Art. XV. The rights of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be abridged by the United States, or by any state, on account of RACE, COLOR or PREVIOUS CONDITION. 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. NEXT WEEK'S "WHATNOTS." 16. What are the circumstances of Coleridge-Taylor's death? 17. What became of the "Hanging Gardens of Babylon"? 18. Who was the first and only Negro Captain of the U. S. Navy? Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Sykes are now residing at 610 St. Anthony avenue. Mr. Leonard Coleman and Mr. Henry Petticord spent a very pleasant holiday on the Fourth of July attending the "Championship Bout" at Shelby, Mont. They returned to the city last Friday morning. YEARS AND YEARS of Knowing How A Good Place to Buy a Good Used Car Studebaker Sales Co. NINTH @ FRANKLIN M. E. BARRY, V. P. (By the Associated Negro Press) Atlanta, Ga., July 13.—"Tiger Flowers" mailed Tut Jackson of Court House, Ohio, all over the ring Tuesday night in one of the best fights seen here in years. The Georgia middleweight, who recently beat Panama Joe Gans, weighed only 161 pounds, while Jackson, who lost his forfeit by failing to make 175 pounds, scaled 185. No decision was rendered, it being agreed at the last moment that if both men were on their feet at the end it would be declared a draw. Newspaper decisions, however, were all in favor of Flowers. Flowers was on the offensive in every round, Jackson electing to let the Atlantan force the issue, always with the thought of finally delivering the finisher. Nothing but the fact that Jackson is one of the most rugged battlers that has ever appeared in this city saved him from taking the count as early as the fifth round, for by that time he had received every legal wallop known to the profession. And he was the recipient of some later that Tiger must have invented for this special occasion. Flowers, however, had no more chance to stop the Ohio warrior than a gnat has to bowl over Stone Mountain. Jackson, like most fighters of his type, is a slugger pure and simple. He packs a right that carries murder, but the black phantom that danced in and out offered a target too elusive. Jackson spent his time brushing off taps to head and stomach and waiting for an opportunity to drive through a right that would have ended the battle abruptly. The bout pleased the big crowd which was about evenly divided between black and white people. TWO RACE FIGHTERS WIN IN AS MANY BOUTS (By the Associated Negro Press) Toronto, Can., July 13.—Both colored boxers who participated in the boxing tournament, held in the Coliseum last night, won their bouts. Dixie Kid of New Orleans and Mexican Jack Rivers fought a furious three rounds. At the beginning of the fourth, Dixie Kid stopped Rivers' interest in the proceedings by a right to the jaw. Jack Oakes of Omaha stopped Cyclone Smith of Buffalo inside of 30 seconds.....R. P. E.

WINS LARGE PURSE AT FAMOUS FRENCH RACE (By the Associated Negro Press) Paris, France, July 13.—Under perfect skies, with the huzzas of tens of thousands of Frenchmen and women as well as visitors at the world's capital, Jockey Winkfield, the famous colored jockey of Kentucky, rode Bahadur, the pride of French stables, to victory in the president of the French republic stakes of 200,000 francs at the closing of the Metropolitan racing season at St. Cloud. Bahadur, who is French bred, is owned by Leon Mantecheff, a Russian, paid his backers 14 to 1. Contrary to the Grand Prix de Paris, where styles predominated over racing, today's contest was a strictly business and big betting affair. King Alfonso of Spain had to be content with third place in the race, his four-year-old Ruban, ridden Lucien Layne, white, American jockey, finishing behind Zariba. The few remaining adherents of the Bourbond dynasty bet heavily on the Spanish king's horse. Steve Donohue, who flew from England to ride Kefalin, last year's grand prix winner, arrived a few minutes before the horses went to the post, but the three times winning jockey in the Epsom could do no better than finish in the rut with his mount. Nearly six million frances were wagered on the president stakes. Get ready for the Boat Excursion to be given by Corinthian Temple No. 132, S. M. T., August 13. Music by Stevens' Special Six.—Adv.

The Associated Negro Press can state with absolute knowledge that the crux of the entire opposition is not the mere matter of a colored personnel; nor is it the holding of the government to a so-called promise; nor is it the fear of the power that colored people may acquire by manning the institution; the whole trouble is the insane desire of this small group of Alabama politicians to have absolute control of the more than $1,250,000 annually required to run the hospital. That, American citizens, is the answer to all of the agitation.

Pittsburgh, Pa. The Program Won't Work. The Associated Negro Press can state on the highest and most reliable authority that the program of the little group of Alabama politicians is due to failure—it won't work. There are many reasons why it will not work. President Harding is the first; and Director Hines is the second. The President and Director Hines have determined to give colored personnel trial at the Veterans' hospital; and there is no sign of either of them weakening. The opposition has produced no argument against it that is worth a tinker's dam! On the other hand, their attitude has disgusted the administration officials into a determination to the limit with their program, backed up with all governmental resources to achieve success. Taking the other side of the argument: If there should develop such a state of affairs that it is thought unwise to place a colored personnel in charge, there will be no Veterans' hospital in Tuskegee, so far as patients are concerned, except such invalid patients who may be taken there by force, or those who may be insane. Colored nurses, a number of whom are already on the ground, coming from the best institutions of the land, and of large experience, cannot be expected to continue their services in the institution; and the entire proposition will die of dry rot, according to the best information obtainable, gathered from sources that cannot be questioned. Delegates to Western Baptist Convention are urged to begin their vacations, not end them with the convention, by traveling on from St. Paul to Yellowstone Park. Special rates now. Colored public speakers and colored newspapers of the country will practically be unanimous in discouraging attendance at the hospital under the circumstances advocated by the little group of Southern white politicians. Their threats and vengeance will be met by cold indifference, according to general opinion. The colored people of America will then go before the government in the most gigantic publicity campaign ever conducted, and seek a hospital in a location where people will be treated with some degree of justice. In this event, Alabama, which has for years been regarded as one of the outstanding states in the South giving a better deal to her hundreds of thousands of colored people than many of her sister states, will fall to a state of degradation that may wipe out the last vestige of her splendid, law-abiding and progressive colored population. Finally, again, it remains to be seen which is the more powerful, the Ku Klux of Alabama or the United States government?

One hundred and fifty guests enjoyed one of the most elaborate affairs of its kind ever given in the history of Minneapolis. The excellent speeches, unusual music and a delicious dinner truly rivaled the symposium of the ancient Greeks. So successful was the entire affair that many have suggested its being an annual get-together. Mr. Talmage B. Carey, exalted ruler, is now serving in that capacity for the fifth consecutive term. Other officers are: J. D. Ware, esteemed leading knight; Carl Cockrell, esteemed loyal knight; Mr. Nelson, esteemed lecturing knight; G. G. DeVaughn, recording secretary; Wm. R. Morris, financial secretary; Clarence McLough, treasurer; Wirth Jones, inner guard; Ross Hamilton, tyler, and James A. Tooley, master of social sessions. May the grand order continue to go forward exemplifying the cardinal principles of charity, justice, brotherly love and fidelity.
