GOLDEN WEST GREETS NAT. BAPTIST "Shuffle Along"To Play at Metropolitan VOLUME II, NO. 31 BEST MUSICAL COMEDY TO SHOW IN TWIN CITIES BEST MUSICAL COMEDY TO SHOW IN TWIN CITIES Greatest Colored Show That Ever Appeared on Broadway. FORTY COLORED PEOPLE COMPOSE THE SHOW Management Predicts S. R. O. Sign at Performances Shuffle Along, the greatest colored musical comedy to ever appear on Broadway, is booked for the Twin Cities in the early fall. The following excerpt is taken from the Enterprise in Seattle, where they played to capacity houses. In St. Paul "Shuffle Along" will appear at the Metropolitan theater. A sure cure for blues, dullness or lonesomeness is a visit to Shuffle Along, the big all-colored musical comedy at the Metropolitan theater this week. There is enough singing and dancing in the two hours' show of Shuffle Along for six ordinary shows. But Shuffle Along is an extraordinary show. For a musical comedy it is the cleanest show seen in Seattle for many days. Nothing vulgar or suggestive in Shuffle Along. Forty colored people compose the show and they are about the best company of singers and dancers ever seen in Seattle. The action of the play centers around a mayoralty contest in "Jimtown" with three candidates for the honor. The comedy is handled by Billy Dewey and Eddie Connors as "Steve Jenkins" and "Sam Peck," partners in a grocery store. Emma Jackson and Margaret Scott, in the leading feminine parts, have fine voices of exceptional strength. Theo. McDonald and AI Baldwin are pleasing in song and receive many encores. Perhaps the biggest hit is the quartette singing. Without doubt it is the best heard on a Seattle stage in many years. There is a real jazz orchestra whose playing is as much a delight as the rest of the performance. A real treat is "Shuffle Along" and more a sure cure for the blues. Holds Record. The show carries 60 people, including a 10-piece jazz orchestra. The most famous singers, dancers and comedians of the race make up the personnel of the show. "Shuffle Along" means much to the colored race, as it is responsible for the present demand for and interest in colored shows throughout the country. This show holds the world's record for continuous performance, having played 107 consecutive weeks at the 63rd Street Theater, New York City. Many colored shows have tried to imitate "Shuffle Along," but all have failed to please the public as this big musical comedy has the very cream of the colored theatrical profession in its cast. "Shuffle Along" is absolutely the largest and greatest colored show in the world and every person in Helena should see it. Urban League Presents Fellowships New York, N. Y., Aug. 31.—The National Urban league, through its executive secretary, Eugene Knickle Jones, has announced its fellowship awards for the next school year. Miss Ethel E.

THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN Vacation Sojourners Praise Cordial Hospitality of Twin City Hostesses Rev. Edward Fuller, the new pastor of Central Baptist church in Fergus Falls, Minn., sent in a large check for subscriptions this week. All members and friends of his church have evinced a great interest in the Bulletin, judging from the demand for this publication in Fergus Falls. Reverend Fuller is doing remarkable work, having succeeded Rev. Wither, who resigned from Central Baptist church some time ago. Already many beneficial changes are noted, and under his pastorate the growing need of a permanent church is manifested on all sides.

S., will have the signal honor of giving the first entertainment in Union hall since the decoration of the hall has been completed. The new color scheme in the main hall is very pleasing and adds a cheerful aspect, even the woodwork glistening with a new coat of paint, making a great improvement. The Union Hall association, composed of prominent citizens, built and paid for this property. They can be justly proud of their splendid accomplishment. A large attendance will be present on Monday evening, as this affair will be the first of the winter season. Excellent music has been provided and a good time is assured for all who attend. Mrs. James Howard left for Chicago with her little niece and nephew who have been here on a visit. Round of Varied Entertainment Keeps Guests in Festive Mood. The Twin Cities have been the mecca this season for a large number of prominent visitors from all parts of the country. No pains have been spared to make their stay an enjoyable one. Among the noteworthy visitors were Mrs. Ruth Taylor, daughter Amy, Mrs. Thomas Bogen and son Thomas, Jr., who were the house guests of Mr. and Mrs. S. E. Hall at their cottage, "Hall Crest," on Round Lake and their town house on Iglehart avenue for the past ten days. At a reception given by Mrs. W. G. Hood on Monday the Chicago visitors were guests of honor with Mrs. Sweeney of Toledo, Ohio. Mrs. O. C. Hall entertained at luncheon on Tuesday. In Minneapolis Mrs. W. R. Donovan of Bedford street gave a 12 o'clock breakfast. On Wednesday Mrs. S. E. Hall entertained with cards and dancing.

PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1923 Friedman Bros Popular Tailors on East Seventh Street Friedman Bros., tailors, formerly located at 345 Robert street, moved this week into their new store at 20 East Seventh street, opposite the Princess theater. This store is one of the finest of its kind in the city, having a 25-foot frontage and a depth of 142 feet. The large arcade windows will display the fine materials used in the tailoring of Friedman suits. Twelve large electric domes furnish the lighting system. Handsome glass showcases and four display tables are used for the showing of the new fall merchandise. Coming to St. Paul over twenty-five years ago from St. Louis, Mo., Mr. Charles Friedman opened a tailor shop on a small scale. With each successive year his business increased until larger quarters were necessary to care for his growing trade. Later with the admission of his brothers, the present firm was incorporated. At all times Friedman Bros. have catered to our group. Some of the leading business men are among their best customers. The policy maintained by this establishment has won for them a host of friends. One is always treated with the utmost courtesy upon entering the store, and a special effort is made to satisfy the patrons. This week many special values are noted. A visit to the store will be amply rewarded. Only the very best grade of merchandise is carried. The style and workmanship of Friedman suits cannot be duplicated anywhere in the Twin Cities for the price. Idlewild Threatened By Great Blaze Idlewild, Mich., Aug. 31.—Last Wednesday night the town of Idlewild was startled by a forest fire. It developed about 11 o'clock, when most of the summer colony had retired, although a dance was in progress at the Paradise pavilion. No one knows the origin of the fire and it was not even noticed until it had almost reached the city and the flames, spurred on by a southeasterly wind, had reached a height of nearly 50 feet. By the time the fire had reached Broadway men and women were rushing out of the dance hall and cottages pell-mell and terror-stricken. A small group of men, headed by D. Rogers, County (Continued from page 13) al musical numbers by Mrs. Mattie Rhodes, Atty. Geo. Hamilton, Mrs. Hattle Loomis Oliver, Mark Gibbs, Mrs. S. E. Hall and a very clever reading by Miss Kathryn Tandy. Five hundred and dancing concluded the evening after a generous service for which the hostess is known. The remainder of the week was enjoyed by a dancing party given by Mrs. G. W. Wills and a "Mulligan" at Round Lake, given by A. V. Hall, at which the ladies were honored guests. They witnessed the ball game at Lexington Park as the guests of Mr. S. J. Cuthbert. Luncheon and cards with Mrs. O. C. Hall. Dr. John R. French being a lifelong friend of both families, graciously offered his car at their disposal during their entire sojourn. Their visit was pleasantly ended with a breakfast on Sunday morning, given by Mesdames J. Giles, Glover Shull, M. Gibbs of Minneapolis, followed by a drive through the Twin Cities, piloted by Morris Gibbs and terminating with dinner at 6:30 at the residence of Mrs. W. B. Tandy of Iglehart avenue. The ladies left Monday morning, expressing much appreciation for the wonderful hospitality of the Twin Cities. CARLY, NORDLIN VOTE AGAINST LOAN SHARKS Conservatives Say High Rate in Minnesota Must Bow to Law. LOCAL COMPANY HIT HARD BY MEASURE Both Carley and Nordlin Popular With Race Voters of Entire State. When the so-called "loan shark bill" was before the Minnesota legislature last winter, Senators Nordlin and Carley stated that, through deceit and other questionable means, the Mackey forces succeeded in inducing labor leaders, among whom were President Hall and Secretary Lawson of the State Federation of Labor, and prominent members of social and state welfare organizations to lobby for the "uniform small loan bill." Senators and representatives were misled by representations that the usurious measure was a welfare measure. In his arraignment of Mackey, his agents and his scheme, Sen. Carley said: "I would not vote for this bill and face an honest man afterwards. The claim is made that the measure is calculated to save the poor and needy from the clutches of the greedy 'loan sharks' by legalizing an annual interest rate of 42 per cent. This bill rather is to throw the poor and needy into the clutches of Mackey, the millionaire loan shark, who owns yachts and entertains the crowned heads of Europe." Proof Given. Senator Nordlin produced documents and secret correspondence to prove the truth of the allegations that the Mackey-Harbison interests were behind the incorporation, last October, of the Minnesota Mortgage Loan Co., St. Paul, capitalized at $200,000. The incorporators were Leslie C. Harbison and Byrd E. Henderson, Evansville, Ill., and Victor H. Stevens, of St. Paul, Minn. Senator Solberg of Yellow Medicine Co., and Sen. Hauster of Ramsey Co., actively opposed the passage of the bill. They contended that it purely was a measure to legalize usury and to make it a respectable pursuit, instead of keeping outside the law. Jurist Takes Notice. Wednesday, February 21, 1923, Judge Sanborn of the District bench was quoted as saying: "The defeat of this bill in the senate indicated only a lack of full knowledge of conditions. I realize that it is hard for delegates from the rural districts to know the loan shark situation in the cities." When the learned St. Paul jurist read the facts as presented by Senators Carley and Nordlin, in opposition to the bill, he must have been surprised, even if he did not realize that rural citizens are not as ignorant as some of the city people like to represent them. It required more than five hours of hard debate for Senators Carley, Nordlin, Bonniwell and others to kill and skin the monster, but they stuck to it and did a thorough job. Border M.

PAUL FIREMAN Arthur Botts, Stationed at Engine House No. 9, Dies at Ancker Hospital. On Monday morning at 2:05 another of St. Paul's firemen, Arthur Botts, was called home to rest, his death being the third one to occur in the last two years among the men of Company 9. Alfred Godette and Phillip Anderson, both members of this same company, answered the final summons just a short time ago. Coming to St. Paul in the year 1911, Mr. Botts was employed on the Northern Pacific railroad, being well known and quite popular among the railroad boys. After a few years of railroad service he took the examination for fireman and was assigned to Company No. 9 on the first day of January, 1918, and had been stationed there up until his recent illness. Mr. Botts had been ill six weeks, suffering from hay fever and hemorrhages. He was removed to Ancker hospital about a month ago from the home of his sister, Mrs. Maud Brooks, 770 St. Anthony avenue, with whom he resided. He was the only son of Mrs. Hattie Ball and was born November 22, 1882, in Falls City, Neb. The funeral was held on Thursday afternoon at 2:30 from his late residence. Rev. H. L. P. Jones officiated. The pallbearers were Messrs. Geo. Charleston, Joe Harris, Sidney Lewis, A. B. White, A. L. Yeiser and William Davenport, all members of Company 9. Besides a devoted mother, Mrs. Hattie Ball, and sister, Mrs. Maude Brooks, the deceased leaves an uncle, two nieces and a nephew to mourn his loss, also a host of friends in the Twin Cities. Welcome Bills Gather in St. Paul for Real Joy Ride to Chicago. A large number of Twin Cities folk boarded the Elks' special cars Saturday evening for the Elks' convention in Chicago. Many friends assembled at the depot to bid them adieu in spite of the threatening skies. Those who left from Minneapolis were Wm. R. Morris, financial secretary of Ames lodge; Ed. Stewart, in charge of transportation; Hamlet B. Rowe of the Messenger, Deputy John Allison and others. Mr. Boots Watts from Duluth was also on board. The St. Paul folks were Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Todd, Mrs. Natalie Johnson, J. Lewis Ervin, John Coquire, Theodore Ruffner, Prof. Weir, Mrs. Redd, Mrs. Alice Major, Mrs. Ida HOTEL HOWELL TO BE REMODELED Extensive improvements will begin at once on the Hotel Howell. A new heating plant will be installed, insuring heat and comfort for all guests during the winter months. The total expenditure will exceed over $2,000. When the remodeling is completed this hotel will be the best in the Northwest. The management will endeavor to provide every convenience for those who are desirous of stopping in a first-class hotel. The floral offerings were numerous and very beautiful, completely covering the casket. Funeral arrangements were conducted by Mrs. T. H. Lyles. Proof of Harding Good Will Shown (By the Associated Negro Press) Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 31.—That the late Warren G. Harding was determined in his plans regarding the Tuskegee hospital may be gleaned by the following letter to Governor Brandon of this state, which has just been released for publication: "The White House, Washington, May 1, 1923. My dear Governor Brandon: I have your telegram of April 28th. It is quite correct that we are working upon a plan of organizing the Tuskegee hospital upon a colored officers and staff. It is an institution for Negro service men. It is located adjacent to the great Negro university. These people have a right to prove their ability to be of service among themselves. The decision is not final, but certainly such a program will be followed out if we find available the abundance of experienced professional people to inaugurate such a program. I would not, for anything in the world, do that which would suggest the making of any racial trouble. I am at a very great loss to understand what your telegram means to convey to me relating to that phase of the situation. Meanwhile, the survey is going on with very great care and no small degree of hopefulness of being a fine and helpful thing. If there are urgent and specific reasons why it should not be done, I should be more than glad to consider them. Very truly yours, (Signed) Warren G. Harding Camphor Church Welcomes Pastor A home coming reception was tendered Reverend and Mrs. David Jordan of Camphor M. E. church last evening. The Reverend and his bride, who was formerly Miss Naomi Harper, have many friends in the Twin Cities who accorded them a hearty welcome. A musical program consisting of some of the best local talent was a feature of the evening. Matthews, A. V. Hall, S. J. Cuthbert, Mrs. Redd and others whose names we did not obtain. Minnesota will be largely represented at the big doings in Chicago. The delegation from Seattle arrived in a special car over the Great Northern railroad at 10:30 and did not leave until 11:30. Miss Verna Waggener, manicurist in the Golden West Hotel, who won first prize in the popularity contest staged by Pudget Sound Elks, was Queen of the Seattle delegation. Miss Waggener received a total vote of 56,970. Miss Dorothy Presto, who was also in the party, received a check for $50.00. The exalted ruler, E. R. Chainey, of Pudget Sound lodge, was presented with a fine suitcase, diamond Elk emblem and a purse of $56.00 at a large affair given by the boosters.

SPECIAL TRAINS WILL CARRY DELEGATES Progress of Theological Semi- naries to Be Shown by Actual Reports. Los Angeles, Aug. 31.—Here in this city of beautiful homes and hospitable people, all eyes are turned toward the East to welcome the Baptist hosts who are headed toward the Golden West. The National Baptist convention will hold its 43rd annual convention here September 5th-10th. The convention is expected to bring together the largest gathering of colored people ever held upon the Pacific coast. Requests for accommodations received by the local committee have exceeded those of any convention thus far held here, but so efficiently has the local committee functioned that ample and delightful homes are available for all delegates. Los Angeles citizens have had their civic pride stirred and as the special trains which are bringing pastors, their wives, families and friends, headed by President L. K. Williams, from every section of the country arrive they will be met by a whole-hearted burst of Western welcome and enthusiasm which cannot fail to express the appreciation of the West in entertaining the largest religious body of the race. Will Give Report. The report of President Williams' administration for the past year will abound with satisfaction for the delegates, it is predicted. Every department of the convention has prospered and a splendidly constructive program laid out in part upon the policies of the late Dr. Morris put into operation. Baptists everywhere have hailed with delight the news that Contractor Wyndham of Birmingham is busily engaged in construction on the mammoth publishing plant at Nashville for the Sunday School Publishing Board. The National Baptist Theological Seminary is now an assured fact. The progress and power of the National Baptist convention has been healing breaches and winning support from many who had defected. Special trains will leave New Orleans, Chicago, Memphis and Kansas City after they have gathered the various delegates from points south and east. Markson Jewelry celebrates first Anniversary Marksons Jewelry Store, 420 Wabasha street, will celebrate their first anniversary on the second of September.

Member of the ASSOCIATED NEGRO PRESS “First in Service” QUITE TRUE It is being generally admitted that the appointment of Bas- com Slemp as the President’s secretary was done with an eye single to the catching of southern har sg to the next national convention, “lily whites,” of course. e headquarters is in the doldrums and doesn’t know in which direction to look for comfort. If this fellow Slemp succeeds in keeping the “colored delegate” from the South at home it means, in the event of President Cool- idge’s nomination and election, no more Republican “Kitchen Cab- inet.” Thus will another of the time-honored institutions of the Republic go into the wastebasket of its polities. . A.N.P. ISSUES THEY FORGET During the months of June, July and August practically every fraternal organization in every section of the country holds some sort of convocation. We are thoroughly conscious of the necessity of conventions since there are many things necessary to the wel- fare of each convening body that must be taken care of. However, another important feature that is invariably neglected is the vari- ous problems as affects the race in the several communities. When the convention is in session nothing but fraternalism is dominant. Why not have an open forum at one session at least, where these questions might be discussed. The importance of a such diversion from the usual routine should be obvious. The successful mainte- nance of fraternalism is largely dependent on the number of its membership. This membership is composed of race people. Where adverse conditions are existing it should be the aim of these many organizations to help better them. A great deal could be accom- plished toward this end if sufficient time were allowed at conven- tions to analyze the causes, effects and remedies of these conditions The characteristic of the average convention is a great dis- play of uniform brass bands, parades and fraternal activities. Fraternities should not be condensed to brothers of the order only. Outside the ranks there are many brothers of all mankind who should share in the spirit of fraternity. When something is done by fraternal conventions to help the race in general instead of the individual conclave, it will be then that the worth of any order is is displayed. It cannot be called selfishness that causes neglect of national race welfare at the conventions as fraternal orders are established upon brotherly love; rather it is possibly a lack of thought for the time being. We have no cause to condemn the modern way of conducting our conventions, but we do suggest that along with the strict observance of the business affairs of ee order let cognizance be taken, at some session, of the problems confronting us as a race and not solely as a fraternal group. If fraternal means brother, then brother by blood should be of some importance along with the brother by initiation. Let us not for- get the duty we owe to our less fortunate. | When we better conditions as a race there is more good ac- complished than when we better ourselves as a single group. Let conventions give some thought to race co-operation, driving out biased prejudice in such centers where it is deeply rooted. The fact of having many thousands of dollars listed among the assets of a race fraternal order is one to be honored. But greater honor can be realized when we have yearly as many thousands of men lifted out of unlawful slavery to the heights of manhood, a tre- mendous work can be done at every convocation of fraternal or- ganizations if, for a few minutes, some open discussion for the uplift of the race, as a race, were given. . Along with our pledge to our brother, by initiation to lift, love and give, let us remember our duty to our brother, by race, in creating a more wholesome and happy world for him to live in. Then will the many annual conventions contribute their quota of brotherly love to the cause of humanity. , THE WRONG LEADERSHIP The National Negro Business league at its } Springs chose as their leader, for another ye Moton.

Black Mason of St. Paul ap- peared for the first time in Los An- geles at the New Tabernacle Baptist cbureh at 27th and Paloma, which is being piloted by the Rev. L. B. Brown. Mme. Black Mason is a very charm- ing personality and her appearance in Los Angeles last Thursday was a classic treat in song. As a song ar- tist Mme. Black is a true representa- tive of Eastern culture and training, and while she is void of any spectacu- lar emotion, her breathing, articula- tion and general stage manners were easy, clear and graceful. It is hoped that she will be heard again in Los Angeles. ‘Mrs. Mason is one of St. Paul's ‘own song birds and has conducted a studio for many years.

An Opportunity in a Race Conference The National Association for the Advancement of ~ Colored People, which will open its annual conference in Kansas City, Kan., tonight, has at its command the means to aceomplisli an immense service to both races in Amerie. The association is the most powerful organization now at work for the uplift of the Negro in this country. With all of its moves and Policies in this effort in the past there can hardly be unanimous agree- ment. But there is evidence that the association, through able ‘adership, is heading toward a worthy goal and Is ready to be guided both by the lessons of experience and the best counsel of today In the numerous tasks It expects to undertake. Prominent Persons Speak. The questions up for discussion at the local gathering are far-reaching in importance. They are of vital concern to both races in all parts of the country. Therefore the best thought of both races ought to be dominant in the proceedings. The expectation, no doubt, will be met. The men and women who are to speak here represent various points of view and lines of activity. They have an intelligent’ grasp of racial questions. What they have to say and the conclusions the conference is to reach: will be noted with unusual interest. Justice Advocated. Certainly, thers can be but one mind on the questions at Issue, There can be no divided opinion about the necessity of stamping out lynching and mob violence of all kinds, wheth- er directed against the Negro or the white man. There can be no doubt about the need for justice to the Ne- gro in education, in political life and elsewhere. Agreement upon the worthiness of aims should bring agreement about the methods to be pursued in accomplishing those aims. The situation calls for sanity, calm discussion, a careful weighing of all the factors involved on one side and the other. ‘Co-operation Necessary. Salvation can come only through co-operation. The two races can work together for their mutual ad- vantage, if they will. The associa- tion now to convene in Kansas City has the opportunity for an unequivo- ‘eal stand for co-operation; an oppor- tunity to make itself both the agency ‘and the clearing house for the bes! pene of the nation on a problem that may be worked out with a min- ms of friction or hopelessly com: plicated by a maximum of friction. —Kansas City Times.

Visitors are cordially invited to be present. Mr, 8, Quay Herndon, assistant managing editor of the Bulletin, re- ceived the sad news of the death of his uncle, Mr. Clarence Trent, in Omaha, Neb. Mr. Trent was well ‘known in Omaha as a veteran fire- man. He had been stationed at En- gine House No. 9 for the past fifteen years, Mr. Herndon left Tuesday evening to attend the funeral, Kate Breaks the News By JANE OSBORN Kate was known to the residents of Mapleville as the city messenger. Every morning she went to the big city thirty-three miles away, where she shopped on commission for the Maplevilleites. What made her different from an ordinary commission shopper was that she also performed errands—errands strange and rare, many of them. For doing these errands she charged for the time expended at the rate of a dollar an hour. But what with always cheating herself a little in the figuring of the time, and railroad and street car fare, Kate did not become rich. Often she came home from her rounds in the city very, very tired, but she could not rest until she had reported to her clients. She was hurrying along to the station one morning when Mrs. Granger halted her from a second-story window. Mrs. Granger had a curling iron in the hand which she used to beckon Kate, and she wore a dressing gown. She asked Kate to come upstairs and, as the Grangers were good customers, Kate decided to take a later train, and did as she was told. "I just phoned you, but they said you had gone. What a blessing I saw you!" began Mrs. Granger. "Ive a queer sort of errand, but I'm sure you can do it. You see I'm starting this morning to the shore, motoring down with friends to be gone a week, and Ive a thousand things to attend to. "You know my nephew, Tom Benton? No? Well, it doesn't matter. He hasn't been here long, but he's living here with us now—commutes to the city. Very nice young man—no trouble—hair not what you'd call real red but reddish, and such nice eyes—but that doesn't matter. "As I was saying, I'm getting off, and to add to the confusion I just got a letter from my sister, Tom's mother, out in Oregon, and she says that Tom's fliance has just eloped. I didn't tell you that Tom's engaged, did I? Or, that is, he was until this happened. You see the difficulty. It puts him in a very trying position—and he'd given her such a nice ring, too. "Well, my sister wrote to tell me of it and asked me to break the news to Tom, fearing that he'd take it hard and not liking to write telling him of it. You know she thought I'd let him down easy. And, of course, she does want him to know before he gets a letter from the girl. Of course I know the writing. "The idea is that Tom must be told before he gets that letter. He might take it very hard; red-haired people are so impulsive, though, of course, his isn't a real red—just that nice shade like dried oak leaves. You get the situation, don't you? I'd telephone, only of course I couldn't break the news gently that way. Just drop in at Tom's office, ask to see him and—well, somehow let him know that that girl has gone and eloped without giving him a shock. "I'm sure you can do it. You're so tactful. His office is—well, I can't remember now, but you'll find it in the telephone directory. He's an architect—Tom Benton. You'll find it." Kate protested with what courage she could, but Mrs. Granger paid no attention. "You'll do it, I know," she insisted, "and, of course, I'll make it worth your while." She pressed a ten-dollar bill into Kate's hand. "Take this to pay expenses—taxi fares and everything, and I'll give you ten dollars more when I get back to pay for the work. There's a dear—" And with that Mrs. Granger disappeared into her dressing room to continue her preparation for her trip and Kate was left to make her way to the front door of the Granger house and then on down to the railroad station. Kate was anything but a flirt—still she had firted, if casting a bit of a smile at a strange young man at a railroad station might be called flirting. He went in on the 8:30—the train that Kate tried to catch on Saturdays. He was always on the platform when Kate rushed in at the last minute, and he had not been very skillful in hiding from her the fact that he found her charming. Kate had, of course, become conscious of the stranger's glances and she might have squelched him quite quickly by always going in the waiting room instead of standing out there on the platform, but there was something about this young man that put ideas of squelching to rout. He had such nice eyes, Kate told herself, and that seemed to make a difference. So when Kate went into the office of Mr. Tom Benton, on the errand from Mrs. Granger, and found that young man to be none other than the nice-eyed young man of her platform flirtation, she was immediately put at something of a disadvantage in the errand she had to perform. She felt indignant at first—indignant to think he could be engaged at the same time that he was looking admiringly at her. He had no right to be engaged—yet, she reflected, he really wasn't engaged. That was something of a satisfaction. Yet it was extremely difficult to proceed. He would, of course, be terribly disturbed when she told him, and she would have to sit by and see him agitated because of another girl's fickleness. He seemed very much pleased to see her. He was glad she had found his office, he said. He tried very hard to find hers, but had been unsuccessful. Apparently he imagined that she was a girl who worked in the city. He did not even know that she was the "city messenger." "I've been bold enough to follow you," he told her. "But you always go in a different direction and you come in on my train only on Saturdays. You were a good sport to look me up—" "I didn't look you up," said Kate, blushing and feeling very indignant to think that he thought she had been so bold. "I was as surprised as you just now. I had no idea that you were—you though your aunt did say that you had reddish hair and nice eyes." "Do you think I have nice eyes?" he said with boyish eagerness. "Did I say so?" "You indicated that you thought so," said Mr. Benton. "Anyway, they look honest, don't they?" he asked, and then, "Well, if you didn't know I was myself, then why did you come to see me and how is it that you know my aunt?" "You see," began Kate, "I happened to stop there this morning, and she was talking about you and we were speaking of engaged people and she said that since your engagement—" "Oh, hang it all," said Tom Benton. "You're not going to let that engagement stand in the way of our friendship—are you?" He was very much in earnest and seized one of her hands in two of his and looked entreatingly into her eyes. "Please don't," said Kate. "You see she had a letter from your mother this morning and your mother said—well, the truth of the matter is that she—your aunt—didn't want to telephone to you about it—she wanted to tell you, but she was just starting off for the shore—so she asked me to tell you. I might as well tell you outright. The young lady you were engaged to has eloped." She stopped abruptly, expecting to see Tom grow pale or otherwise embarrassed, but nothing of the sort happened. "So she eloped," said Benton. "Well, that's not surprising. You see we'd been engaged in a way for a year or so, but hadn't seen each other lately. We became engaged on condition that if either saw anyone we liked better we'd be frank and tell the other and there'd be no hard feeling. "Well, I told her a month ago, and she wrote back saying she was just trying to get up courage to tell me that she had promised to marry Bill Pepper, an old flame of hers. I didn't say anything to my family and she didn't say anything to hers, because they didn't like Bill. So she's eloped—well, I'm glad—" and Tom laughed heartily. Kate felt indignant and looked it. This was a pretty way for a man to take the elopement of an ex-fiancee. "Since you've met another girl you care for," said Kate very primly, "I suppose that accounts for your indifference. I fancy you'll be the next one to elope—" "Bully idea," said Tom, suddenly putting two strong arms around the surprised Kate. "Suppose we do. I always did dislike long engagements. Let's do it before my aunt comes back and give her a surprise." WORK OF GREEK BUILDERS Expert Describes Their Methods, Especially in the Construction of the Marvelous Parthenon. Throughout Greek architecture, it is apparent that the designers were working on the basis of centuries of precedent, following definite standards of proportion and detail, standards which varied but slightly in each generation. No mysticism, no laws of ritual, no arbitrary applications of geometrical forms or of mathematical formulae, but rather the juxtaposition of members carefully proportioned to each other and marvelously refined in detail, produced a whole, the general proportions of which could not have been foreseen at the beginning—which was, furthermore, often varied in the course of execution—resulting, however, in what may be regarded as the most perfect building that the world has ever seen. And yet it is instructive to note that the Parthenon, while synonymous with perfection, had its imperfections like every other human creation; and it is through these imperfections that we can perceive how its designers were grouping toward their goal.—Prof. William Bell Dismoor, in Architecture. Chicken In Alaska On the Yukon the chicken is a pampered luxury, according to Frank G. Carpenter, in "Alaska, Our Northern Wonderland." In summer the chickens who do not like twenty-four hours of daylight are put in darkened coops at 8 p. m., and during the long, dark days of winter the coops must be lighted in order to make the chickens lay. It is the custom during the winter to put chickens out to board in chicken boarding houses. These are log buildings, lined and oiled, with the space between filled with shavings and heated with air-tight stoves. A Climbing Wheelbarrow. In China there is a wheelbarrow which climbs stairs. Some distance ahead of the regular wheel there is another smaller one. In climbing over flagstone steps or bridges the handles of the barrow are lowered until the auxiliary wheel rises above the next higher step. Then the wheelbarrow, which often carried as much as 400 pounds, see-saws from wheel to wheel until the next level stretch of flagstones is reached. SUPPLEMENT TO THE NORTHWESTERN BULLETIN Mrs. F. A.

TENNIS DEVOTEES SHOW RARE FORM TENNIS DEVOTEES SHOW RARE FORM On every train that enters Chicago this week one finds passengers carrying tennis racquets, and on almost all the highways it is a common sight to see racquets and other tennis paraphenalia attached to the sides of the automobiles which range all the way from a baby Lincoln to the full grown Lincoln car of national note. This picture epitomizes the spirit and enthusiasm that is being manifested all over the country. Messrs. L. Leonard of Pine Bluff and J. G. Ish and F. A. Young of Little Rock, Ark., motored over for the nationals. Miss Ruth Redd of Kansas City, while working out on the courts, says that she is just attempting to hold the honors of her city up until Mrs. Edna Glass and Miss Robinson join her the last of this week. Miss L. B. Gardner has come'all the way from Birmingham, Ala., to show the Easterners that they play the game down home in the old country. Applause Big Aid. The applause that players receive while playing means a great deal to help a fellow put over points when needed. Montel Blanks of St. Louis realized this so when he arrived in the Windy City Monday he was accompanied to the courts by his wife and two children. Miss T. J. Carr says its a peculiar thing, but she has noticed that she never plays her best unless Richard is on the side line to root for her; (Yes, it's Hudlin). It is said that Dr. Elliwood D. Downing of Roanoke, Va., has never missed a national tournament; well his record will be clear this year, for he arises on Saturday with Dr. and Mrs. Rose of the same city. These doctors should make a good showing judging from their season's record to data. Dr. R. Beecher Costa, the field secretary for the association, will arrive Thursday from Waterbury, Conn. Dr. Costa is one of the hardest driving men in the game, and he is going to prove to be a formidable adversary. President Arrives. Dr. H. A. McCord and family, Dr. W. Wright and family, Lawyer and Mrs. W. McCord arrived Wednesday evening. Dr. B. M. Rhetta, the champion of Baltimore and the sixth ranking player, will arrive Saturday. Prof. John Wilkinson, the fifth ranking player, will arrive Saturday and has promised to depose the champion. The New York stars are arriving daily and are getting into good shape. Wilson Lovett, Henry Keene, A. E. Norris, Fred Clement, W. L. Keene and R. N. Dunn will arrive Monday, August the 20th, in time to play. From Louisville, Ky., Mr. Wilbur C. Woodson of Cincinnati says that there will be five men representing that city and that the Easterners may well take a tip and be on edge when they meet on the court. The grand stands are all ready and it is estimated that the seating capacity will exceed two thousand. One of the most beautiful affairs of the season was given Tuesday evening at the home of Mrs. Harry Esters, 396 Rondo street, when she entertained sixteen ladies at cards. The color scheme was red and white, whilst the decorations were of her own garden flowers and roses. The favors were miniature novel colonge bottles. The following ladies received prizes: Mrs. Walter Bennett of Pittsburg, Pa., first prize, cut glass jam jar; Mrs. John Follings, second prize, cut glass napkin ring; Mrs. C. Harris, consolation prize, Oriental incense burner. A dainty luncheon was served. The guests departed at a wee hour, declaring Mrs. Esters a charming hostess. Mr. and Mrs. Edward Munday have purchased a lovely home at 498 West Central avenue, corner of Mackubin and West Central avenue. STATE OF MINNESOTA, COUNTY OF Ramsey, ss. In Probate Court.

C., Aug. 31.—A local interviewer, thinking he was talking with the famed Henry Lincoln Johnson, asked Henry N. Johnson why Negroes are leaving the South, one day last week. Better educational advantages in the North, bigger wages, surer protection for their wives and daughters were among the things cited by Mr. Johnson as reasons for Negroes leaving the South. "I would never have interviewed the man if I hadn't thought that he was that infamous Henry Lincoln Johnson," declared the interviewer. And such is the penalty of fame. NEW INSURANCE CO.

Gayle was made permanent president and Mr. W. H. Mayfield secretary. RACE MEN WILL ENTER LEGISLATURE FIGHT (By the Associated Negro Press) Baltimore, Md., Aug. 31.—Louis H. Davenport, Arthur E. Briscoe and C. Marcellus Dorsey will be candidates for the legislature in the November elections.

Corn on the cob is not very convenient to serve or eat, and this method of cooking It would doubtless have been abandoned long ago if cut- ting the kernels from the cob before evoking did not materially modify the flavor. The most convenient way of cooking corn on the cob Is ordinarily by boiling, but in old-fashioned fire places roasting was a favorite method. ‘This still survives as a common house- hold practice In some localities and also in campfire cookery. Bolled Corn on the Cob. Free the corn from husk and “sill.” Have a kettle of water boiling hard, drop the corn into the water and cook ten minutes. If only a few ears of corn are“put in a kettle of boiling water, the temperature te very much lowered and the tlme of cooking must be increased. When possible, surround the corn with a generous quantity of boiling water. Be careful not to cook sweet corn too long, or it 1s likely to be tough and tasteless. ‘The United States Department of Agriculture suggests that when cort and potatoes are to be cooked at one time, six to eight ears ean be steamed in the same kettle in which the pota- ‘toes are boiled. Lay the ears over the potatoes In rapidly bolling water and cover the kettle tightly. Corn Cut From the Cob. Corn may be cut from the cob and heated with butter, pepper, and a little milk. Use either raw corn, or, better, corn that has been cooked on the cob for five minutes in boiling water to set the fulce. With a sharp knife cut throngh the center of each row of grains and with the back of a case knife press the grains of corn from the hulls. Put the corn In a saucepan and season with salt, pepper, and but- ter. Add enough hot milk to moisten well, and cook ten minutes. Serve at once. Another method, sometimes known as “Maine style,” is to cut the grain directly from the ceb without scor ing and scraping, and te season an¢ heat as above. ‘This ts a good way te utilize left-over cooked ears, BSuccetash. To a pint of corn cooked as above or to the same amount of canned corn, add a pint of cooked snd seasoned shelled beans, usually lima beans, HIGH QUALITY SOFT DRINKS Fruit Beverages Have Been Improved ‘and Standards Ralee? ac Result ‘of New Data. ‘The quality of fruit beverages has been {mproved and the standards raised as the result of data gathered by the bureau of chemistry of the United States Department of Agricul- ture in its research work on fruit Juices and carbonated beverages and the industry may be extended through the more general use of these data, Nearly every ingredient used by bot- tlers has been studied—sugar, acid, water, flavors and fruit Juices, Meth- ods have been devised whereby the Getection of flavors as genuine er imi States Department of Agriculture states that after the establishment of the cannery it was decided to build 8 community room adjoining it.

As the work progressed somewhat slowly some of the women offered to assist. Twelve of the Housekeepers club members appeared with well- filled baskets for the midday lunch. They nailed on the siding while the men placed frames for windows and doors.

Milk toast, cream soups, creamed Vegetables, creamed fish and scalloped dishes are all good ways of putting more milk into the daily food of the family. The milk for all of those is thickened Into a sauce, thick or thin. The amount of salt needed depends to a certain extent on the material with which the sauce is served. Pota- toes, for example, would need plenty of salt, while a thin milk soup might not require so much, The following directions are given by the United States Department of Agriculture: To make the sauces, melt the fat, stir in the flour, add the milk gradu ally and cook until thickened, stirring constantly unless you use a double bottler, ‘Thin White Sauce, 1 eupful milk. 1 tablespoontul 1 tablespoontul fat. four. % to % tenspoon- ful salt, Medium White Sauce, 1 cupfal milk. 1 tablespoontul 2 tablespoonfuls fat. flour, M to % teaspoon ful salt, Thick White Sauce. 1 cupful mille, 1 tablespeontul a “Nablespoontule * gat flour.

During his term of office the organization has grown from 55 to 310 members. Others in the party were Mr. and Mrs. C. Curtis, Mrs. J. W. Wormly, Walter Strather in charge of transportation, Mrs. Charles Baker, John Campbell and Mr. Chas. Robinson of Yakima, Washington, Mrs. Wm. Varback and Mrs. B. Brooks. The Bulletin representative had the pleasure of meeting all members of the party, who seemed to be thoroughly enjoying the trip. Their buoyant spirit denoted no sign of weariness. A former resident of St. Paul was also present, being no other than Charles Robinson, father of Valle Robinson and brother-in-law of Mrs. Cynthia Morgan, 418 Charles street. Mr. Robinson is one of the most popular Elks of the great Northwest. He serves as Exalted Ruler of Yakima Gem No. 553. He was a citizen of St. Paul for twenty-three years and was greatly pleased with the New Union Station, as he stated it is a vast improvement. Mr. T. R. Morgan, editor of the Helper, was pleasantly surprised to have a chat over the phone with Mr. Robinson. Over twenty years had passed since last they met. He sent regards to all old friends. Many former residents of Seattle greeted the travelers. It was a regretable fact indeed that no reception committee from Elkdom was on hand to welcome the Seattle party. Mr. Bismarck Archer of Gopher lodge extended a cordial welcome to the visitors. Memphis Man Originates Blues Memphis Man Originates Blues Twelve years ago, W. C. Handy wrote and published "The Memphis Blues," and at a time when he was struggling for recognition with his wonderful organization in Memphis, Tenn. Many who had studied music looked with contempt on his published "Blues." Those who liked "Blues" could not read his music, therefore it was a difficult matter to find a market for his product. Mr. Theron C. Bennet of Denver, Colo., bought "The Memphis Blues" outright; came to New York, made a small fortune, and Mr. Handy made a name. Mr. Handy organized the Pace and Handy Music Co., Inc., which company subsequently published "St. Louis Blues," "Jogo Blues," "Loveless Love Blues," "Beale Street Blues," "Aunt Hager's Children Blues" and others, yielding in royalties from the phonograph and player roll companies many thousands of dollars. The Columbia Graphophone Company engaged his band for one year's exclusive service, made the week of February 14, 1919, "Handy Week" all over the United States. This is without question the greatest honor that has ever been conferred on any Negro bandmaster by any phonograph company. It was largely through the efforts of Mr. Harry H. Pace, who was then president of Pace and Handy Music Company, Inc., that this contract was consummated. It was in New York then that he saw great possibilities for publishing music and in the summer of 1918 established his firm in the Gaiety theater building, where there are now six Negro publishing firms. He was refused quarters on account of his color, but bought desk space with a Jewish lawyer, made good and soon was given all the room his business required. A complete organization was formed and as many as twenty colored persons were on the pay roll. Announcement We wish to announce to our Minneapolis advertisers, subscribers and friends that our Minneapolis office has been changed from 602 Lyndale avenue north to 902 Sixth avenue north.

Call Cherry 8783, ask for Miss Patterson, or stop in at 902 Sixth avenue north. Friday Evening, Sept. 7th AT ELKS HALL—6th AND LYNDALE AVES. NORTH RUTH WALKER, Chairman Good Time for Everybody Governor Smith Not Oppesed to To Wills Bout Executive Declares He Has Never Expressed Opposition to Match. POLITICS PLAY NO PART IN DECIDING BOUT Says There Was No Foundation for Story That Contest Would Be Put Off. Governor Smith last night took occasion to deny flatly that he had taken any action to prevent a boxing bout between World's Champion Jack Dempsey and Harry Wills, the colored challenger. Speaking from Albany over the long-distance telephone, he told a reporter of the New York Times that he had been elected to run the affairs of the State of New York and not to arrange matches between boxers. Governor Smith Speaks. Governor Smith stated that there was no foundation for the story in which it was claimed that politics were the cause of Dempsey's not meeting Wills and that he would not sanction a bout until after the National Convention in 1924. The governor's statement follows: "I don't know anything at all about a Dempsey and Wills bout. I am not running the affairs of the New York Boxing Commission. Under the law I am only able to make appointments to the commission. I appointed one member. Two of the members of the commission are holdovers of the former administration. They make the decisions and are responsible under the laws belonging to the commission. "Nobody voted for me last fall believing that as governor I was to determine what men were to fight in this state. I know nothing about boxing. I do not believe that anybody thinks I know anything about it. I performed all the functions that the law puts upon the governor when I selected the best man that I could find to attend to the affairs of the commission. I performed that duty to the very best of my ability when I appointed one man out of the three." Articles Signed. Louis Angel Firpo, Argentine heavyweight challenger, late today signed a contract with Tex Rickard to fight Harry Wills, New Orleans Negro, next April in Buenos Aires, regardless of the outcome of his title match with Jack Dempsey at the Polo Grounds September 14. Rickard said that he had not yet discussed the match in detail with Paddy Mullins, the Negro's manager, but expected no difficulty in obtaining his signature to terms. Firpo signed two contracts, one to apply in case of victory over Dempsey and the other in the event he is and pay that overdue subscription account.

Open Saturday Evenings Twin City Visitors Royally Entertained The Misses Laure Belle Roberson of St. Louis and Camille Friarson of Cincinnati have been the inspiration for many social gayeties since their arrival. Both young ladies have been on an extensive tour of the Northwest and will also visit in Chicago before returning home. Miss Roberson visited her aunts, Mrs. Charles James, 632 West Central avenue, and Mrs. W. B. Elliott, 415 University avenue. Miss Friarson was the guest of Mrs. Jasper Gibbs, 3515 Nicollet avenue, Minneapolis. Having visited here before, Miss Roberson is well known and her numerous friends have made her visit one round of pleasure and also that of her friend. The following affairs were given in the fair visitors' honor: Mrs. Earl Weber, 415 University avenue, cousin of Miss Roberson, was hostess at a dainty breakfast on Friday morning of last week. Covers were laid for seven guests. Sunday afternoon forty-seven of the Twin Cities younger set motored to Northfield, Minn., and entertained the young ladies at The Alexander Cafe. Eight guests were seated around the table at the home of Mrs. Charles James on Monday morning when she presided over an elaborate breakfast for Miss Roberson and Miss Friarson. At seven o'clock Monday evening Mrs. Jasper Gibbs of Minneapolis was hostess at a Chinese dinner. Twelve guests enjoyed the unique affair. Beginning at the hour of mid-night Monday, Mrs. W. B. Elliott gave a breakfast dance at her home for the young ladies. The Leisure Hour Inn, at 438 Rondo street, is now open for business. Meals at all hours. Parties a specialty. H. M.
